Chapter 21 Heart-Stronger
Li Qi and Gu Xian, who followed Lu Xiangsheng, also saw the team of the Xingtian army entering the battlefield in the distance and the Xingtian army flag fluttering in the wind in their army. Even if Li Qi recognized the identity of this man and horse, tears gushed out, almost breaking his voice and shouted at the surrounding Ming army soldiers: "Brothers! We are saved! The good men of Xing Tianjun have come to save us! Look at it! It's the banner of Xing Tianjun! They did what they said and came to help us! We are saved! Kill it! Hurry up! Kill them and meet them, and we will be saved!"
At this time, the officers and soldiers who were fighting hard also began to notice the changes on the battlefield. They found that the attack of the Tatarmen suddenly stopped. After a while, the Hongyi cannons of the Tatar soldiers who had been roaring just now stopped firing at them, and more and more people also saw it. The soldiers and horses of the Xingtian Army who began to enter the battlefield.
These officers and soldiers who were already in the Jedi suddenly became excited. Although there are mixed feelings in their hearts, it is a little indescribable, at this critical moment, whether someone can risk their lives to enter the battlefield to try to rescue them, or let them all be grateful for the morale that has already declined. Suddenly, it was excited again. The tired officers and soldiers didn't know where in their bodies suddenly showed a force, making a shocking cheer, and then roared again one by one: "Kill the slave!" He danced desperately with the weapons in his hand and desperately greeted the hand of the soldier.
Under the bottom of each other, the Ming army, which had already reached a precarious point, actually with this sudden burst of strength to curb the offensive of the Taran soldiers. The officers and soldiers who regained their morale in the two places desperately pushed the two Taran soldiers who entered the battalion and squeezed out the battalion again.
At this time, there was a flash of light in the place where the Hongyi cannons of the soldiers who were still roaring at the Ming army's battalion, suddenly flashed, and then a huge black mushroom cloud rose in the air. The ground suddenly shook violently. After a dull roar, it reached the Ming army. In the camp.
Of course, the Ming officers and soldiers know what's going on. Such an explosion is definitely caused by someone detonating the gunpowder barrel used for the tartar cannon. This time, the tarmen who were riding them just now can be regarded as self-defeating. From this huge explosion alone, it can be guessed that those Han soldiers who surrendered the tartars this time absolutely It's a lot of death. It's really a relief, so the generals of the Ming army made louder cheers and continued to fight with the tazi soldiers for their lives.
Soon after, they heard a series of fire from the west. This sound made many officers and soldiers a little nervous, because they also knew the power of the bird. Why did this Xingtian army use so many birds? Can the Xingtian army officers with birds come in and save them out? Because the terrain in this area is flat, after the Xing Tianjun entered the battlefield, the officers and soldiers could at most cross the heads of the crowded Taran soldiers and see the banners of Xing Tianjun floating in the wind, so they could not see the situation on the battlefield and could only secretly guess the battle situation in the west.
Although some officers and soldiers were depressed and felt that although Xing Tianjun entered the battlefield at this time and obviously wanted to rescue them, they also knew how many soldiers and horses came this time, and they intuitively judged the number of soldiers and horses that the Xing Tianjun came this time. It's not too much. Even if the two sides are combined, they are far less than the soldiers of the Tarots. With the strength of the Xingtian Army, God knows whether they can save them, and they also speculate whether these soldiers of the Xingtian Army will be willing to fight to the death for them, the officers and soldiers who were once enemies, to rescue them.
However, in any case, at this critical moment, there could be a group of people trying to help rescue them. For the officers and soldiers under Lu Xiangsheng's command, there was no doubt that they were given a strong shot, which made their resistance more resolute. For a moment, they actually blocked the attack of the Tart soldiers and the Tart. The soldier killed an inexperable one.
Lu Xiangsheng also couldn't care about his identity at this time. He was excited to run in the army, constantly boosting the morale of the officers and soldiers, encouraging them to continue to fight hard, and wait until the Xing Tianjun came in.
Although Lu Xiangsheng is not sure whether the soldiers of the Xingtian Army can kill the head and rescue them, or are willing to save them desperately, he is still grateful to the people of this Xingtian Army, just when these loyal and brave people of the Ming Dynasty have been abandoned by the court, as The former enemy, Xing Tianjun, could put down his old grievances. When he came here, he had nothing to say. In Lu Xiangsheng's heart, it was benevolent and righteous that Xing Tianjun could do this. No matter whether they could save the officers and soldiers under his command, he would not blame them in the end, because they had done enough.
So Lu Xiangsheng used all his strength and waved the big knife to the most fierce place of the battle. The Xueliang's big knife flew up and down, splitting one after another of the Tatars soldiers under his knife.
Although Lu Xiangsheng was born as a literati, he is different from other civil servants. Lu Xiangsheng began to practice martial arts and fitness when he was a child. Not to mention his physical fitness is excellent, he is also born with two magical powers and a good knife dancer. When he is ordered to suppress bandits, he will come in person every time he leads his troops to fight. On the battlefield, even rushed forward like ordinary officers and soldiers, and the insurgents who fought with him were all shocked by his strength. It was rumored that Lu Dadao was invincible. It was precisely because of this that Lu Xiangsheng led the troops to fight, he could often stimulate the morale of the officers and soldiers, so that they were willing to serve and be able to The combat effectiveness of far exceeds that of other officers.
With the continuous adjustment of Dorgon and Yue Tuo, a batch of Tatar soldiers at each flag began to change formation, met the soldiers and horses of the Xingtian Army, and began to form a battle with each other, trying to prevent the Xingtian Army from attacking the Lu Xiangsheng battalion and converge with the Ming army under Lu Xiangsheng's command.
And the Xing Tianjun here, under the personal command of Xiao Tianjian, led by Liu Yaoben's Iron Bone Battalion, the three battalions were in the shape of a front, regardless of the big stride forward.
Soon a piece of tartar armor with a white flag blocked the way of Liu Yao's iron bone camp. A batch of tartar armor soldiers lined up with shields, and more tartarmen held out their hard bows and put arrows on the bow string, waiting for the arrival of the Xing Tianjun. There were also tough Tataritan soldiers who were ready to rush to kill. These Tataritan soldiers all have eight-petal iron helmets like lightning rods on their heads. They are wearing white cotton armor with black edges. Copper nails are nailed on the face armor, and the inside is lined with iron leaves to strengthen protection. This armored armored soldier with white flag is the step of the flag owner Duoduo, and Duoduo is the maternal brother of Dorchon and Azig, with white palms. Flag, this time Dorgan was ordered to enter the customs, and the battalions of the white flag were also ordered to serve with Dorcon.
The person who led this team of armored soldiers is also a Jiala Zhangjing, but it is just a third-class. Compared with the general of the Ming army, the official position is equivalent to a guerrilla position. He was the first to stand up the formation and stop the Xingtian Army, so the first one to stand the obstacles in the Xingtian Army. The first stumbling block on the offensive road.
This Jiala Zhangjing galloped his horse back and forth in front of the battle. He commanded Niulu Zhangjing and the Shiku led the troops to line. The cavalry in the white flag just now attacked the Xingtian army. They also saw the fierceness of the Xingtian army, so they did not dare to be arrogant at this time. They were all full of energy and dealt with it carefully. .
In the eyes of these hand soldiers, this inexplicable Xing Tianjun is really not easy to deal with, but with their bravery, they should still be able to stop this enemy.
So he arranged a row of armored soldiers with shields in front of the battle as much as possible, hoping to block the birds in the hands of these enemies, and then shoot these damn enemies with the sharpest and strong bows they think, and let them, the enemies can taste the exquisite shooting skills of their real warriors. Maybe it's like this, no But it can stop this enemy. Maybe he can disrupt them as he did before against the Ming army, and then take advantage of the warriors under his command to rush to fight with them. It is guaranteed that he will break up the enemy army. In this way, he has made a great contribution. How can he get the title of Batulu this time?
But his satisfactory calculation is destined to fall in the air this time, because they really don't know the tactics of Xing Tianjun. They don't know the power of those "birds" in Xing Tianjun's hands at all. At this time, when they stopped Xing Tianjun's way, the hazy sky for several days finally fell snowflakes. The wind was mixed with snowflakes, hitting people's hands and faces like a small whip, which made life painful. The ferocious Tatar soldiers widened their eyes and stared at the Xing Tianjun of the brigade towards them step by step.
The distance between the two armies was shortened from 200 steps. The generals of the Xingtian Army always stepped on the drums of the march, as if they regarded the Tart soldiers in the opposite array as nothing, carrying their long guns or torches, stepping on the drums of the marching drums in the army without any disorder, and maintaining the whole line step by step. Qi, pushed forward like a mountain. At every step, the footsteps of more than a thousand people converged into one, making a roar, as if they had hit the hearts of the people, which made the invincible taran soldiers unable to help but be moved. They called themselves the strongest warriors in the world, but on the queue, they could not follow the opposite one at all. Compared with the enemy, all the enemy soldiers from top to bottom have an indifferent expression on their faces, which regard them as state-building warriors as nothing. This expression used to hang on their faces, but today it appears on their enemy's faces, and when the enemy advances towards them, this kind of neatness The marching army was always un disordered, and invisibly exuded a sense of violence that they had never seen before, which made them more nervous. An idea flashed in the minds of almost all the tartarmen, that is, they met a terrible opponent today, and the archers couldn't help starting. He clenched the strong bow in his hand, put his thumb on the bow string, and was ready to fight.
