Liu Kuo is a fourth-rank general, leading an army alone. According to his military position, he has the same status as the ten outstanding Luo men, but in the left front, the ten outstanding Luo men are equivalent to Luo Yao's disciples, and his status is naturally detached. In principle, there shouldn't be such kind of loyalty in the military, but Luo Yao has such a temperament, who can control it
At the beginning of the founding of the Great Sui Dynasty, it was common for generals to lead by example. Later, there were very few generals above the fourth rank who charged forward in person. A person who can be promoted to a fourth-rank general has unquestionable experience and ability. If such a person is lost on the battlefield, it is sometimes an irreparable loss.
However, according to Luo Yao's words, only give a fourth-rank general three hundred soldiers and a dozen small boats to force him to cross the Yellow Niu River, and Liu Kuo must go.
Liu Kuo's army is one of the three vanguard armies, and Wen Xiaodao was appointed as the vanguard general. Although Liu Kuo has the same military position as him, he must be controlled by him. Without Wen Xiaodao's military order, Liu Kuo certainly would not have crossed the river hastily. Before Luo Yao gave the order to fight the rebels, crossing the river might trigger the start of an all-out war between the left vanguard and the rebels.
Although Liu Kuo is not Luo Yao's confidant, he has been in the left front for long enough. So he understands Luo Yao and also knows Luo Yao's thoughts, the left front guard is like Luo Yao's personal soldier, he will not start a war easily.
This is one of the reasons why he had to ask Wen Xiaodao for instructions, but Wen Xiaodao's rescue order has not come down for a long time. Liu Kuo first sent people to mobilize crossbow carts to suppress the rebel forces on the opposite bank, and then sent auxiliary soldiers to build a pontoon bridge. In fact, he had already done everything he could do.
So Luo Yao asked him to lead troops across the river to save people, it seemed that Luo Yao was a bit unfair.
However, Wen Xiaodao's complexion turned green and white, turning ugly. Although Luo Yao didn't reprimand him, the cold tone he spoke to Liu Kuo was equivalent to slapping him hard. Wen Xiaodao really felt that if something happened to Fang Jie this time, Liu Kuo would not escape. Even if he would not be implicated, he would be gradually indifferent to Luo Yao and eventually lose his status .
Luo Yao didn't reprimand, didn't scold, and didn't even ask him a question. In Wen Xiaodao's view, this is more severe than letting Liu Kuo lead his troops across the river.
So now he is even more suspicious, what is the relationship between Fang Jie and Luo Yao
He sneaked a glance at Luo Yao, and found that Luo Yao's cold and heartless eyes glanced vaguely at his face. This glance made Wen Xiaodao feel like falling into an ice cave.
It's not easy for me to get up all these years, if Luo Yao is left out in the cold because of such a trivial matter, it's not worth it. Thinking of everything he had paid for these years, his heart felt sour and painful.
There was a complicated expression on his handsome face, and the look in Luo Yao's eyes was a bit sad.
Luo Yao glanced at him, and after a moment of silence, he sighed softly.
Liu Kuo stood in front of and behind him with four personal soldiers, and headed for the north bank in a fishing boat. Two personal soldiers raised their shields to block Liu Kuo's body, and the two personal soldiers behind them used their shields to protect the boatman. The small boats dispersed immediately after entering the river. If their troops gathered together, they would be shot into hedgehogs by thousands of archers on the other side.
Even with the suppression of the ballista, the closer the arrows are to the north bank, the denser the arrows will be.
Feather arrows hit the shield cracklingly. Although it was sharp, it couldn't help the hardwood shield covered with a thick layer of leather. The giant shield is high enough and big enough to cover the whole person, but at a long distance, the feather arrows fall in a parabola, so having a shield does not mean that it is foolproof. When crossing the river, at least a dozen soldiers of the Jingbu Battalion were shot by arrows, and several fell into the water.
When they were about to reach the shore, countless spearmen rushed out from the rebel army and stood in several rows, constantly poking at the boat with their spears. The boat could not dock, and many well-trained Jingbu Battalion The soldiers were stabbed to death by random guns before they could fight the enemy. A dozen or so small boats gathered together again when they reached the north bank. The original strength was too small. If they were scattered when they reached the bank, no matter how elite the soldiers were, they would not be able to escape when they landed when their defense was the lowest.
"General Fang!"
Liu Kuo yelled at Fang Xie, "Come this way!"
Fang Jie and the others were separated by the rebel infantry, with the hundreds of rebel cavalry in front, and the rebel infantry arranged along the river behind. If you look at it from the sky at this time, the plum blossom turns around like a rickety boat in the ocean.
The cavalry turned around the plum blossoms, condescending and slashed down. At this time, there were too many rebels gathered on the shore, and they had no room to accelerate their attack. But after all, there are a lot of people, and the ruthless cavalry knew that they would not escape, so they might as well fight. If the dozen or so people from the Sui Army were taken down, there was still a chance of survival.
if not
The Mingguang armor is too strong, Chungu and the others have died countless times.
The horizontal knife slashed on the bright light armor, and a string of sparks was wiped out, but it couldn't be cut through at all. The long spear was stabbed on it, and the point of the spear slid over the iron armor as soon as the body was tilted. This equipment allowed them to survive in the sea of swords and the rain. At this time, Chungu and the others were gradually exhausted, and the speed of swinging the Damo knife became slower and slower. It's just that even so, the Damo Dao was still unrivaled, and the cavalry who came up fell down layer by layer, and made up for it layer by layer.
The ground that Aunt Chun and the others stepped on was already soaked in blood, and her boots made a squeaking sound as they stepped on the bloody mud.
"Change to the shore!"
Fang Jie yelled loudly, and then pulled Chungu in from the outside, stuffed the Chaolu Knife into Chungu's hand, and swung Chun Gu's Damo Knife to the front: "Follow me!" behind me!"
Chungu froze for a moment, then her eyes turned red.
Although she did not lose to the butchers, she was a woman after all.
At this time, Liu Kuo finally boarded the river bank after losing more than 80 infantrymen, relying on the strong combat power of the Jingbu Battalion, he barely occupied a small place on the bank. But there are too many rebels, surrounded by layers, and the spears are too dense, even in such a small place, they can't hold it for long.
Liu Kuo and Fang Jie were separated by at least a dozen rows of rebel soldiers. The two could not see each other and could only speak loudly.
This feeling of blood and blood on the battlefield began to revive in Liu Kuo's heart, and he seemed to have returned to the time of the battle to destroy the merchants many years ago. This feeling made the animal nature in his bones gradually emerge. Back then on the battlefield, he did not kill less than any of his colleagues.
"kill!"
With a loud roar, Liu Kuo swept his long lance horizontally. The two-foot-long lance easily tore open the leather armor of the rebel soldiers. Five or six soldiers were cut open almost simultaneously by this lance. As soon as the lower abdomen grinned, the bloody intestines were immediately squeezed out, and the injured people wailed and backed away, with the intestines hanging on them.
swinging.
…
…
It was the first time Fang Jie used the Damo Dao, and it was a bit difficult for Fang Jie to use it. But after killing three people in a row, he began to like this weapon. The Chaolu Knife was made of a treasure. As for the Damo Dao, each handle weighs more than thirty catties.
Such a heavy knife is like a meat grinder when danced.
The people in the camp were already tired, and Chun Gu was undoubtedly the brain of Plum Blossom's transition, and everyone else followed Chun Gu's command, but Fang Xie could tell that Chun Gu could no longer break out as an arrow. At this time, no one is more suitable to rush to the forefront than him.
Fang Jie swept across with his saber. The Damo Dao in his hand was more than twice as powerful as in Chungu's. The blade easily chopped off three or four rebel soldiers in half. The same goes out. A rebel army was slashing at Fang Xie's shoulder. The Damo Dao in Fang Jie's hand swung diagonally. The half of the body holding the head slowly slid off the body.
When Fang Jie stepped forward, he happened to step on the half of the team's heart, and with a puff, the meat paste was squeezed out along the bottom of the boot.
Fang Jie shouted as he walked, "Don't worry about me, you concentrate on dealing with the cavalry behind."
He split the forehead of the rebel soldier in front of him with a knife, as if drawing a line, and the corpse cut from the middle fell to both sides, with the same size. Stepping on the corpse and internal organs of the enemy, Fang Xie strode forward. With one knife, the heads of two rebel soldiers were cut off, and with one knife, half of a soldier's shoulder was removed. The saber is open and closed, and it is unparalleled in domineering.
The murderous Fang Jie rushed into the crowd of rebel infantry, and the infantry were terrified. Some recruits who went to the battlefield for the first time were immediately overwhelmed with fright, and shit dripped down their crotches. The stench of excrement and blood mixed together, poured into everyone's nostrils, and could not dissipate for a long time.
Zhuo Buyi followed Fang Jie, holding a horizontal knife to block the sneak attacks from both sides for Fang Jie. The horizontal knife made of fine steel had many gaps, and the blade was like a sawtooth.
Ten people from the supply camp retreated while fighting, and followed closely behind Fang Xie. When Fang Jie cut a bloody gash in the rebel infantry, and after they merged into the rebel infantry array, the rebel cavalry completely lost their function, and at this time they also went crazy and jumped off their horses, screaming Rush over and continue to hunt.
The team of more than a dozen people is like a small boat going upstream, the Damo Dao is the oar, and what slides is the blood flowing into the river.
A long spear suddenly appeared from the slanting stab and stabbed Fang Jie's shoulder. Fang Jie tilted his body and immediately slashed back. Although the strength of this shot was not weak, it only tore a hole in his black clothes, without leaving any scars on his body.
The rebel lieutenant with the gun immediately widened his eyes, his face full of astonishment. It could be seen from his wide open mouth that he couldn't believe that the shot he had prepared for a long time didn't even pierce a flower of blood. What is the body of the black-robed man in front of him made of
His astonishment stayed on his face forever. Fang Jie cut off his neck with a knife, and the head rolled out along the river bank, kicked and rolled back and forth under the feet of countless people.
Liu Kuo heard the shouts of killing getting closer, and his blood surged up. The long lance in his hand danced like an angry dragon, and none of the rebel soldiers standing in front of him could block a move. This man, already in his fifties, strode forward with a layer of blood on his body.
He was stabbed in the shoulder, the chain armor was cut open, and the blood flowed out along the armor, but Liu Kuo, who had awakened the fierce tiger in his heart, didn't care at all, and pierced the chest of the person who injured him with one spear, Then he raised his arms and picked up the corpse and slammed it down fiercely.
The corpse knocked the rebels into pieces, and Liu Kuo took advantage of the situation and rushed forward two steps.
From landing to sprinting ten steps forward, there were less than fifty people left in the 300 Jingbu Battalion. None of the corpses that fell on the ground had more than ten wounds on their bodies.
At this moment, Liu Kuo, who was only looking forward to fighting, suddenly had a bright light in his eyes. When he looked up, he found that the formation of the rebel army had been killed by him and Fang Jie.
The two looked at each other and laughed at the same time.
"Let's kill it!"
Fang Jie pointed forward, and Liu Kuo and Changqiang turned around and knocked down the two rebels like a dragon: "It's a piece of cake!"
Fang Jie's heart fluttered, and he strode forward to walk side by side with Liu Kuo.
old and young
The knives and spears flew together, killing people step by step.
A man was born to be a general, and he roams across the battlefield, how can he block the way
