Chapter 2357 The Collision of Flesh
As the crossbow arrows flew out, the Di people in the dense array on the opposite side could not escape at all, and they suddenly pierced the lower body of a certain Di person...
With the sound of crossbow bolts and the heart-rending screams, the nerves of both sides were almost extremely nervous. The soldiers on both sides screamed crazily and started a chaotic stabbing attack almost at the same time. The spears and lances went in and out between the flesh, making a creepy thumping sound.
In the midst of the chaos, Shitou took a step forward as if by reflex, and took up an attacking position, just like he practiced hundreds of times a day. He stepped forward slightly with his left leg, leaned forward, and exerted force with his right and left hands at the same time. The spear thrust out as fast as lightning!
When his body was about a foot away from the opponent's spear head, Shitou felt a somewhat stagnant feeling in his hand, as if it was stuck on a cowhide stake used for training, but there was something... no the same……
The nasty spear in front of him fell to the ground.
bingo!
Shitou retracted his hand, then saw a patch of blood, and then thrust forward again like an instinct.
Another Di Ren spearman who didn't have time to take over was staring at the comrade beside Shitou. He was also competing with his comrade with the spear in his hand. He didn't even notice that Shitou had already aimed his gaze at him. He didn't pay attention to Shitou's assassination move. Anyone who was on guard was immediately stabbed in the neck, covering his neck and falling to the ground.
The sound of blood splattering from the carotid artery was like the brisk whistle of death.
Among the spear formations of the Han army, there were not only spearmen, but also close combatants.
The melee fighter behind Shitou had no time to reload the crossbow, but when he saw Shitou stabbed two of them down in succession, and a gap appeared in the spear on the opposite side, he quickly found an opportunity and moved forward without hesitation. As soon as he drilled it, he cut off the thigh of Di Ren who was confronting his comrade next to him.
The Di man was howling crazily and stabbing each other with the Han soldiers on the opposite side. He was almost crazy emotionally. There was a deep cut on his thigh but there was no reaction for a moment. Then the blood in the femoral artery burst out like a fountain. After spraying everywhere, I felt my legs were weak. I looked down in surprise and was stabbed to death amidst screams.
The back row of Di people's spearmen moved forward. The melee fighters did not dare to stay longer after sneak-attacking the two Di people. They crouched down almost on all fours and tried to move back, but he was already exposed. Two Di people's spears chased him. It came over and stabbed him at his original position. Before he had time to rejoice that he had escaped, another spear popped out and pierced his back. The armor pieces flew away, and he immediately fell to the ground in pain. It rolled up and was dragged back by other melee fighters.
The Di people had no idea that there were some melee fighters hidden behind the Han people's spear array. These melee fighters were small in stature and could nimbly get under the spears. Sometimes there were rows of them above their heads. Clusters of sharp blades of spears and spears came and went. These melee fighters either fired with crossbows, or rushed up when they saw an opening, stabbing or cutting, and then retreated under the cover of the spearmen, while the Di people As long as the spearmen were distracted, they would either be taken advantage of by melee fighters or assassinated by spearmen.
The battle line has been reduced to a pot of porridge, with blood-colored foam splashing everywhere. More and more people are jumping on them, either injured or dead. The pain caused by cold weapons is very intense, and the hoarse screams of the wounded soldiers can be heard throughout the battle line. The wounded soldiers of the Di people were not taken care of at all, but if the soldiers of the Han people were injured, someone in the rear line would look for an opportunity to drag them to the rear line.
Shitou had already taken a step forward at this time. His spear controlled the gap between the two opponents, preventing the opponent's back row from filling up. When the opponent's back row was unable to step forward to restrain him, Guan Shitou made another move to the right. An assassination kills a Di spearman on the right. Then he feels that he can't keep up with his breathing. He takes a quick breath and wants to take a step back and return to the queue...
The Di Ren spearmen who came from behind may have been stimulated by their dead companions. They rushed forward with a loud shout and thrust their spears at the stone. A spearhead expanded rapidly in front of the stone!
Shitou kept his spear level as much as possible, holding the spear shaft with trembling hands, and aimed his right hand slightly at the chest of the charging enemy spearman. Seeing that the tip of the Di Ren spear was approaching, Shitou controlled his desire to retreat and closed his eyes with determination. A force came from his hand, almost making Shitou pause.
Shitou opened his eyes and saw that the Di person on the opposite side had hit the spear head and hit the crossbar of the spear. Di Ren stared at him. The spear in his hand was right in front of him, but he didn't see it. The energy stabbed me...
Shitou shook his hand hard, blood spurted out from the blood groove of the spear, and then the Di man fell to the sky.
Shitou felt a little hot on his face. Perhaps the spear from Di Ren had scratched his face, and some liquid flowed down his skin. However, the rapid secretion of adrenaline greatly increased his strength and endurance, and the high tension made him No time to worry about anything other than the enemy.
After the first batch of casualties occurred, the two sides fought more and more crazily. Ru Lin's spears and spears crisscrossed each other, quickly harvesting human lives. Almost every moment, someone was injured, someone fell, and the corpses were unknowingly covered with corpses. battle front...
Although the Han soldiers had the advantage, it did not mean that there were no casualties at all. In the era of cold weapons, any negligence in action, or accident, will lead to death or injury.
On both sides of the stone, people have changed.
Shi Shi's face was covered in blood, which seemed to affect his vision. Another Di spearman from the opposite side pounced forward. Shitou subconsciously was about to stab him when his calf suddenly felt a sharp pain. He tilted his body just in time to avoid the fierce thrust of the Di spearman in front of him, but Shitou fell to the ground because of his instability. land.
A new spear quickly took over Shi Shi's original position and stabbed towards the opposite side with the roar of the wind. However, no one had time to save Shi Shi and pulled him to the back line.
I don't know who stepped on the stone twice. The pain on his body made the stone realize that if he didn't want to be trampled to death, he had to leave this chaotic place...
The ground is covered with blood, and the blood and yellow sand are mixed together, creating a different picture. The motionless corpses are occasionally touched by the body reflex caused by people stepping on them, and the injured are not dead but squirming on the ground. It's not clear at all.
The strong smell of blood filled the air.
Above their heads were spears and spears clashing back and forth, surrounded by countless swaying human legs.
It turns out that this is the world that melee fighters can see?
Amid the deafening shouts of death and hoarse screams, Shitou took a few big breaths, and then he discovered what stabbed his calf. It was the Di Renmin spearman he had just killed. He lay on his back. On the ground, although he was dead, his hand was still holding the spear tightly. When the enemy on the opposite side stepped on his body and hand, the spear would bounce up and rise for a moment...
grass……
Seeing such a situation, Shitou didn't know whether he should laugh or scold.
Shitou took out the dagger from his waist, resisted the pain in his calf and pounced forward, then cut the wrist of the corpse with the knife. He originally thought that his wrist would be cut off smoothly, but he didn't know that it was because of the attack. The force space was small, and his hands and feet were already weak and numb, so he only cut half of it and then it got stuck in the hand bone!
Shitou felt that his calf was getting more and more painful. He didn't know who had stepped on him again. His chest felt tight and blood was constantly flowing from the wounds on his face. It was dripping down his cheeks, and some were still bleeding. Into his own mouth.
The ground was covered with blood, and it felt extremely slippery, making the dagger he held a little slippery.
Shi Shi resisted the pain, grabbed the dagger with all his strength, and cut it back and forth a few times like sawing wood...
I don't know what was cut off, but Di Ren let go of his hand, and the spear fell to the ground, rolling into the blood and mud. It should no longer pose a threat to his comrades.
Shi Shi took a breath, and then he felt that his leg seemed to be grabbed by someone, and then the legs around him shook quickly, and he moved forward...
He was spotted by those in the rear, who were dragging him backwards.
Shitou was about to turn his head to look when a stream of blood sprayed down from above, covering his head and making the world in his eyes turn red!
Someone fell down, I don’t know if it was a enemy or a comrade...
When Shi Shi regained some of his sight, he felt as if a hand was touching his body, and then among the noise, a blood-red figure swayed, asking eagerly, "Where?" Where is it hurt? 』
At this moment, Shitou seemed to realize that he was in pain everywhere in his body. Then he didn't know whether he had clearly stated where he was injured, but he felt a thought jump into his heart, it was the doctor, I was saved...
Because in the army, everyone knows that the Hussars have a rule: as long as they still have breath, they must save them!
As soon as the stone relaxed, people began to feel a little numb, their eyelids drooped up and down, and they were half asleep and half awake.
"Wake up!" ” Someone slapped Shi Shi’s face, “Can’t sleep! Don't sleep! Wake up! 』
Shi Shi was especially groggy.
"The Di people are coming up!" 』
Shi Shi trembled suddenly and opened his eyes wide, "Where is it?" 』
"Huh...went down again..." The doctor in front of him stuffed a stick of dried meat into Shitou's hand, "Come on!" Take it and chew it yourself! What's your name? ! How many people are in your family? After taking a few heads this time, have you saved up enough honden? 』
The meat strips were very dry and salty, and even though they were stained with some blood and sediment, they were still very fragrant.
Shitou smelled the smell of dried meat and felt suddenly hungry. He stuffed it into his mouth unceremoniously, endured the pain of the wound on his face, and said while tearing at it: "I killed five!" Hmm...add it all up, that's enough..."
The doctor nodded and seemed to have finished treating the wound on Shi Shi's calf. He reached out and touched Shi Shi's body again, "Is there any pain anywhere?" The wound on your face is not serious, so you don’t need to wrap it up. Just apply medicine and don’t scratch it... Remember, you owe me a piece of meat. Next time we see you, remember to return it to me..."
After the doctor finished speaking, he was about to leave. The stone tugged at him and asked, "How's the situation ahead?" How is Di Ren doing now? 』
The doctor stretched his neck, looked around, and smiled, "General Taishi is on the move!" It's over! You know, you guys did a great job! 』
Shitou was relieved and laughed twice.
The doctor pointed at the dried meat and said, "Eat it!" Don’t waste it...』
Immediately, someone shouted loudly, "Doctor!" Physician! 』
"exist! coming! ” The doctor stood up and ran over.
Shitou tried to move his legs, but it was okay if his calf didn't move. However, it hurt terribly when he moved it. He couldn't stand up at all. He could only drag it with his other leg, move it to the side, and lift it while he was half sitting and half leaning. I started looking back and forth in the distance, and then saw a Taishi battle flag fluttering rapidly in the air, and then the sound of rolling horse hooves resounded throughout the battlefield...
Yang Wanwan looked at the crumbling infantry with a pale face. They ran away in panic and even dispersed the garrison behind them. They had completely become a lost dog. Even the supervising team collapsed and they could only avoid the front line of the defeated troops. Follow and escape.
The tactic of outflanking the two wings was formulated by Yang Wanwan. He originally thought that he could outnumber the Han soldiers by three or four times. Even if he was slightly lacking in equipment and armor, he could still crush the Han people with their numbers, let alone the number of soldiers. There are countless tactics superior to those of Zhutu...
As a result, the Han bows and arrows on the opponent's Han city wall were too powerful, especially the long range of the bows and arrows, and there were also some ballistae. Although the shooting speed was slow, its power made every Di people tremble with fear, causing the Di people who were outflanked by the two wings. People always have scruples, which ultimately prevented the two wings from forming a breakthrough and suffered great losses.
The spearmen in the middle also did not gain an advantage in the confrontation. Instead, they were defeated by the Han people in a frontal battle. After losing most of the spearmen and infantry in the middle line, the swordsmen and archers at the back faced the still dense Han infantry. At this time, I suddenly lost my fighting spirit.
Yang Qianwan was speechless. He never thought that he would be defeated when the number of people was several times that of the Han people, and he was defeated so quickly that even the cavalry behind him had no time to invest...
The guard standing next to Yang Wanwan said with a trembling voice, "King, break down the door and retreat first!" The Han people also dispatched cavalry! I can’t beat him...』
"withdraw? Where to retreat? Yang Wanwan said with some despair, "There are mountains behind. If the Han cavalry blocks the road, and then these infantry come all over the mountains and fields to kill them, where can they run, and how many can they escape?" 』
"My king, withdraw as long as you can... Right now, this is really unbearable..." the guard advised again.
Yang Wanwan waved his hand to interrupt the guard's words, "Needless to say, Di people are not cowards!" Besides, they are all my son-in-law. If I leave them and run for my own life, what dignity will there be..."
The guard was helpless, but also admired. He knelt down and kowtowed, "My respected king..."
Yang Qianwan nodded slightly and raised his head as if to show his persistence, but suddenly he heard a huge noise from the other side, and then many people yelled.
Yang Wanwan turned around and saw Wang Gui on the other side, who turned around and ran away first!
I don't know if they were pulled by Wang Gui's actions, but the Han cavalry also headed over there. They were driven away and trampled on, causing the Di people on the other side to cry for their fathers and mothers and dispersed all the way!
"Wang Gui is such a turtle grandson!" Yang Wanwan jumped to his feet and yelled, "You actually ran away first!" Turtle grandson! Coward! waste! ” Immediately, Yang Wanwan secretly breathed a sigh of relief, “Come here, while the Han cavalry is chasing over there... we... break through and turn in! Turn into! 』
Taishi Ci released the cavalry in his hands, and used a small team as a unit to continuously attack the covering Di soldiers with a small cavalry formation. After breaking through the gap, he continued to pursue the fleeing Di soldiers. Under the repeated attacks, the Di people collapsed at the speed of With further acceleration, the military formations that attempted to cover the Di people's retreat were defeated one after another and turned into corpses on the ground.
This kind of approach was very familiar to the cavalry under Tai Shici. Then the Di people found that their side seemed to be more and more scattered. There were obviously many people, but they just couldn't gather together. When it seemed that there was some shape, the Han cavalry once again The charge arrived, and then even the bravest soldiers among the Di people did not dare to confront the hussars' cavalry head-on, and could only run away again.
The hussars became more and more courageous as they fought, easily killing those broken soldiers who did not resist at all from behind, driving these broken soldiers forward, and then rushed towards those Di people who seemed to want to resist, causing the Di people's rear The formation was in chaos, dust was everywhere on the battlefield, and Di people were everywhere running in panic. The wounded soldiers left on the ground were wailing loudly, but no one paid attention to them.
Wang Gui was targeted by Tai Shi Ci...
Wang Gui cursed in his heart and couldn't understand why Yang Wanwan was clearly in front of him, but Tai Shici came to him?
Why? !
In fact, just because Wang Gui's flag pattern was brighter and more colorful than Yang Wanwan's, this place that originally made Wang Gui so complacent became the basis for Tai Shici to judge that guy was more worthy of a fight.
Wang Gui felt that the back of his head was numb, as if he was being stared at by some ferocious beast, and the pores all over his body were trembling, especially when he saw the line of defense he had set up to intercept Taishi Ci. The situation of instant collapse naturally made him even more frightened.
Wang Gui originally thought that he would be able to stop for a while, but he saw that as Taishi Ci led the cavalry to rush past, the Di soldiers on the line of defense were either assassinated by swords or knocked away by horses, and then jumped up after the horses' hooves flew. In the smoke and dust, the line of defense disappeared in an instant, and there was no more movement...
It was no longer possible to reorganize the queue. The messenger soldiers who had just been sent out to gather people could not even be seen at the moment. It was not known whether they were dragged there by the defeated troops, or they ran away on their own halfway.
And counting on Yang Wanwan to save...
Less likely.
The relationship between Wang Gui and Yang Wanwan is not very good.
This expedition has a sense of cooperation but also a sense of competition.
The system among Di people is actually very imperfect.
Of course, without Qiusi Fei's potential improvement on the Han Dynasty, even if the Di people launched a rebellion and attacked Xiabian, they would not have been defeated so quickly, nor would they have been so miserable.
Under the pursuit of Tai Shici, Wang Gui didn't care about any shamelessness. He would go into the ravines if there were any, and even wanted to shrink into the cracks in the ground. As for the flags and fancy decorations that represented his status, even more It was thrown far away...
Fortunately for Wang Gui, Taishi Ci didn't recognize him, so after he threw away all the things that represented his identity, Taishi Ci couldn't distinguish him among the chaotic deserters. After all, it wasn't like in the game. There is a huge word SS above the head, which can be seen from any distance.
Unfortunately, when Wang Gui was like a driven dog, he finally got into the mountains and escaped from the chase. Then he discovered something that made him angry and frightened. He didn't know where he had escaped, and Surrounded by mountains...
