The reason is very simple. On the battlefield, there is only one purpose, which is to kill the opponent.
Therefore, every blow must be done with all your strength.
In this extreme situation, physical strength will soon bottom out.
Even Zhang Zhenhai, a battle-experienced general, was already lying on the ground like mud.
Qin Feng stood in the middle of the intersection, protecting Zhang Zhenhai behind him, struggling to resist the increasing number of field soldiers.
Looking at Qin Feng who was fighting bloody battles, Zhang Zhenhai just wanted to stand up with his body supported when he received a stick on his back and fell heavily to the ground.
The person who took action was not the enemy, but Qin Feng.
Qin Feng swung the gun and shouted: "Lie down, quickly regain your strength, and replace Liu Ming."
"Although Liu Ming is very skilled in martial arts, he is not good at fierce fighting and cannot last long."
Zhang Zhenhai turned around and lay on the ground. Looking at Qin Feng who was constantly fighting with the enemy, he couldn't help laughing loudly: "Hahaha, Mr. Marquis, you are the No. 1 Marquis of Daliang and the Lord of the Northern Territory. Fighting on the front line, he is probably the most cowardless prince in history, right?"
Facing Zhang Zhenhai's ridicule, Qin Feng didn't care. The rifle in his hand was cut off, so he had to throw it down and replace it with a sword to fight with the opponent.
"You are talking so much when you are about to die!"
"Shut your mouth and don't waste any more energy. When we get back to Beixi County, I will let Xu Mo hang you up and beat you for three days and three nights."
Being cursed by Qin Feng again, Zhang Zhenhai was smiling. It was a blessing to be able to follow such a master through life and death in this life.
Return to Beixi County? Can you still go back?
If I could go back... I must take a long vacation and have a good rest for a few days.
Thinking of this, Zhang Zhenhai couldn't help but giggle.
At the entrance of the ancestral hall located in the center of the village, Li Xiaolan looked at the enemy troops jumping and climbing on the roof, knowing very well that they had reached their limit and the defense line would be breached at any time.
Li Xiaolan took a deep breath and slowly raised her right hand.
The Tianji Camp guard on the side decisively pulled out a short knife from his waist and stuffed it into Li Xiaolan's hand.
The two Tianji Camp guards looked at each other, knelt down in unison, kowtowed to Li Xiaolan three times, then stood up and rushed to the front line battlefield without saying a word.
Li Xiaolan clutched the knife, with no fear in her eyes. On the contrary, she was extremely determined.
The moment the defense line was breached, it was the moment when Li Xiaolan committed suicide.
She would never allow herself to fall into the hands of the enemy. As a woman, she knew very well how she would be treated. She couldn't help but protect her chastity, and she also wanted to preserve the reputation of the Qin family and Qin Feng.
At the same time, outside the village, three messengers rushed to Lu Li from three completely different directions at the same time.
"Zhuguo, something bad is going on. A group of troops are coming from the direction of Changshui County!"
"Zhuguo, General Chen Si led his troops and rushed over, killing a large number of our scouts and messengers along the way."
"Zhuguo, the frontline has suffered heavy losses, and the enemy's morale is strong. Soldiers have been fleeing. The number of people killed by the supervisor alone is no less than twenty."
"Every intersection in the village is already piled with corpses. The generals at the front are begging Zhu Guo to send his own soldiers to go into battle in person."
"The morale of the soldiers in the field has almost collapsed."
Facing a series of bad news, Lu Li's eyes remained calm. After all, he had expected all this.
On the contrary, the deputy general of the garrison next to him frowned and his eyes were even a little panicked.
But seeing Lu Li motionless, he didn't dare to ask questions rashly, so he had no choice but to stay by the side.
Lu Li first looked at the messenger from Changshui County.
"But Ning Hu is coming with his troops to help? How far is it from here?"
The messenger dared not hesitate at all, and quickly replied: "The enemy generals are brave and unstoppable, and they are all light cavalry. The scouts did not dare to get close to investigate. They only knew that more than 500 people came from the enemy. They were divided into two groups. One hundred people went ahead. , four hundred people are at the rear. The advance troops have entered the boundaries of Qingshan County, less than twenty miles away from here!"
After hearing the report from the messenger, Lu Li already knew what was going on.
The enemy general must be Ning Hu.
The 100 troops going forward are the guards of the Chun Tianji Battalion, who are rushing to help at all costs, while the 400 troops behind are the soldiers of Beixi.
Lu Li knew that Jin Yiwei's hands and ears were astute, so it was simply unrealistic to completely block the news.
Moreover, Ning Hu's reinforcements are less than twenty miles away from here. Based on the distance and time, I am afraid that before Qin Feng was ambushed, or even as soon as Lu Li sent his troops down, Jin Yiwei had already sent the news back to Changshui County. .
Lu Li did not reply in a hurry, but asked again: "What's the situation over there with Chen Si?"
The messenger coming from the capital was so anxious that he was sweating profusely: "I don't even know how many soldiers and horses Chen Si brought with him. I only know that there are many. Anyone who met Chen Si on the way, whether they were scouts or messengers, Or maybe the yamen soldiers in Qingshan County, one by one, were all killed by Chen Si."
"General Chen Si is approaching fiercely, and he is only more than twenty miles away from here."
Lu Li nodded and looked at the messenger who came back from the front: "How many enemy troops are there in the village? Have they killed the generals? Have they found the bodies of the Tianji Camp guards?"
The messenger wiped the sweat from his forehead and said nervously: "The generals have not been killed, and the bodies of the Tianji Camp guards have not been found."
The deputy general of the garrison on the side couldn't bear it anymore and exclaimed: "What? So far, there are no casualties among the Tianji camp guards? Are those guards all heavenly soldiers and heavenly generals?"
The messenger's face turned pale: "The guards of the Tianji Battalion guarded the village entrance, protected by residential houses on both wings, and protected by the Anwu Guards and Beixi soldiers in the rear. They only need to focus on the frontal battlefield, and the field soldiers alone can fight in the narrow crossing. , there is no way to break through the defense line of the Tianji Camp guards."
Hearing this, the deputy general of the garrison couldn't help but start sweating, and he quickly looked at Lu Li.
"Zhu Guo, what are you waiting for? Only your own soldiers can break through the defense line of the Tianji Camp guards!"
Lu Li waved his hand and said without hesitation: "No!"
"The guards of the Tianji Camp are extremely powerful and are at the pinnacle of foot combat. Even the legendary former warriors of Liang Guodian have suffered heavy losses in front of the guards of the Tianji Camp."
"Although the soldiers under my command are elite, they are still unable to compete with the guards of Tianji Battalion. If we rush forward rashly, we will also face a large number of casualties."
"Besides, there are cavalry rushing towards us on both sides."
Having said this, Lu Li stood up directly and ordered loudly: "Leave a hundred supervisory troops to prevent the soldiers from disintegrating as much as possible, and the rest will fight against Ning Hu's reinforcements with all their strength!"
"Qin Feng must have less than a hundred people around him, and the casualties will be faster and faster. He only needs to rely on the soldiers to kill him."
"The most important thing right now is to block Ning Hu's reinforcements and buy time for the frontal battlefield."
The deputy general of the garrison couldn't believe his ears and said in shock: "What about General Chen Si?"
