The two groups of cavalry faced each other, and the seven leading generals faced each other head-on. Only one of them met, and each of them lost one man.
On the Liangshan side, the "Giant Spirit God" Zhou Ang, the deputy instructor of the 800,000-strong Forbidden Army who was famous in the capital, was defeated.
In the Jin room, Wanmutuochi, the commander-in-chief of the iron pagoda, was killed.
These two are both famous generals in their respective armies. Once they fall, it can be said that they are damaged.
The deputy commander Wan Mu Tuo Ze died of his brother. He was so angry that he used a heavy iron rod to boring him, and then he went to find Fang Qi Buddha and tried his best. Ma Gongzhi gave a loud shout and danced with his maces to stop him.
Over there, Suo Chao and Zhou Ang were both surrendered generals from the imperial court, and both wielded axes. They had always been on good terms with each other. Now that they saw his horse trampled into the mud, why didn't they focus on revenge?
At that moment, he exerted all his strength and swung his ax across the golden marble. The golden marble held back his hammer and was about to throw out another hammer. Fang Qifu struck with his halberd. It was so fierce that the golden marble had no choice but to block it first.
His five generals were killed in one mass, and the two cavalrymen were like two torrents, hitting one place fiercely, and instantly they fell over in rows.
Both armies were selected warriors from the best, and their courage was particularly outstanding. Although they saw the casualties in front of them, they were not afraid and kept charging forward. They really refused to turn around!
It wasn't until the soldiers and horses died in battle in front of the formation that a wall of corpses was piled up that was more than half a man high, then they gave up and went around to fight on both sides. For a time, they were forced to meet the strong and head-to-head, and the killing was evenly divided.
Even though Han Shizhong and others outside the formation have experienced hundreds of battles, have they ever seen two invincible cavalry confronting each other like this? Their hair stood on end and they were amazed.
Comparing the two armies, the armor of Jin's iron pagoda is thicker, and with three horses in a row, its impact is more powerful.
The Liangshan Tiger Cavalry defeated Hu Yanzhuo and captured a lot of horse armor and iron armor. They built it based on this. It is said that they can also be strung with iron chains to form a chain of horses, but they thought they had lost their flexibility, so they did not take them.
Therefore, when the two armies first collided, the Tiger Cavalry suffered more damage than the Tiefu Tu. However, after being strangled into a group, the Tiger Cavalry gathered and dispersed as they pleased, and their advantage gradually became apparent.
At the rear, Wanyan Xie had just gathered the army when he heard a report from the scouts, saying that the Iron Buddha Tu had captured the enemy's cavalry. He was frightened for a moment and did not have time to organize his troops carefully. He quickly destroyed the army and moved forward, hoping to take advantage of the fight between the two sides to attack them in one fell swoop. Kill the powerful team that could rival the Iron Buddha.
In Jizhou City, when he saw the Jin soldiers massacre heading south, Li Jun couldn't help shouting: "This is the time for the decisive battle. Everyone in the city who can fight should be taken out of the city to gain some weight."
Sun Li and Tang Bin had previously been defeated by gold marbles and had not left the city again. Now they had regained some strength and were in time to lead the army. They immediately ordered 20,000 infantrymen, opened the city gates, and pursued them.
At this time, Fang Qifu and Suo Chao had been fighting forty or fifty golden marbles together.
Fang Qifu fired the "Thirteen Halberds of Green Dragon Fighting Chaos". The tip of the halberd was like a dragon's tooth, and the moon blade was like a dragon's claw. The halberd was like a vivid green dragon, fighting and biting around the golden marbles.
During the rise and fall, the wind whistled, like the roar of a dragon.
There is a poem that praises the fine halberd of Fang Qi Buddha. It says -
The Immortal cut off the dragon spirit in the East China Sea, and built a halberd shape with gold from the fire.
His whole body is pure green and he is two feet long. His name is passed down from generation to generation and his life span is a thousand years.
Generals use force to clean up the dust, and wars cease in troubled times.
If you have evil thoughts, look at the crescent blade and look at the thunder.
With Suo Chao beating the drums on the side, even though he was brave and brave with golden marbles, he could only block and parry, unable to fight back.
In the nearby battle group, Ma Gongzhi and Wanmutoze were also fighting to the fullest. .
Ma Gongzhi was dedicated to making great achievements, and the more he fought, the more energetic he became. He hit the two tile-faced gold maces tightly, and each blow was harder than the last.
Seeing that the enemy general's strength was gradually losing strength, he suddenly shouted loudly, used his mace to smash open the door of Mutuo Ze, and then swiped the other mace away, causing his helmet to crack and his brains to flow out.
After hearing Mu Tuoze's screams, Jin Danzi knew something was wrong and thought to himself: This halberd wielder is actually more ferocious than the Southern Barbarians a few years ago! There are two more powerful generals helping him. If I don't leave, I will definitely be killed in his hands.
He was timid all his life and refused to fight anymore. He ignored the fighting between the two armies and the cavalry. He swung the two sledgehammers headlessly, forced Fang Qifu and Suo Chao away, turned his horse and fled.
Just at this moment, Wan Yanxie also arrived. Seeing the defeat of the golden marbles, he was extremely surprised and quickly waved his army forward and attacked with all his strength.
Fang Qifu was going to chase the golden marbles, but suddenly he saw countless golden soldiers and horses, killing them in a chaotic manner. He was surprised at first, and then said happily: "The enemy will be defeated today, hurry up and push the tiger cage!"
When he set out on Tiger Cavalry, didn't he bring two carts with him?
The commander of the caboose listened to the general's order, pushed the two cars into the formation with all his strength, and pulled off the green cloth covering the cars, revealing two huge iron cages.
In the iron cage, one car at a time were two huge tigers!
The two tigers had been blinded before and were pushing the cart around. They were already restless. Now they suddenly saw the light and saw soldiers and horses fighting everywhere. They couldn't help being frightened and angry. They both roared with a "oooh" sound.
The tiger's roar was originally powerful and powerful, and it could be said to be full of penetrating power. Now the two tiger roars came together in one place, so that the clouds in the sky burst out. The roar of the tiger was heard for miles away. Who could When people hear it, can they not be frightened by it?
Especially horses.
It is natural for horses to be afraid of tigers. When these two giant tigers roared, except for the Liangshan war horses and a few sacred horses such as the white dragon colt under Yue Fei's crotch, they could still stand firmly. The rest of the horses saw their hip bones soften and screamed sadly. .
The ones who are more timid will even urinate under them, their ears pressed tightly against their heads, and their hooves tremble continuously!
Especially the Iron Buddha.
These war horses were originally carrying an extremely heavy load, and now that they had been fighting for a long time, they were even more tired. Now frightened by the roar of the tiger, they were even more useless. Most of them fell down on the spot and were unable to get up.
Seeing such a magical effect, Fang Qifu and others couldn't help but look at Zixiong, laughed, and all shouted out one word: "Kill!"
The officer heard that the two tigers did not come from somewhere else, but were the cubs of a giant tiger that Lao Cao, Luan Tingyu, and Li Kui killed when they passed through Yiling when they took Li Kui's mother back to Yanggu County.
Lao Cao personally chose the names, one is Zhong and the other is Akang, and they were raised in the mansion until they were half-grown. He was afraid that they would hurt others, so he moved to Liangshan and raised them in a stable as a secret weapon.
After raising it for several years, it finally came into use today.
When the two tigers first came to Liangshan, the war horses were so frightened that they didn't eat or drink for several days. It was difficult for them to gradually adapt. Now when they moved into battle, a tiger roar caused all the enemy horses to collapse, but the Liangshan war horses remained energetic.
In this way, the outcome is immediately clear.
There were three thousand tiger cavalry in Liangshan. Previously, Lao Cao crossed the sea and took away five hundred, leaving two thousand five hundred.
The Jin Kingdom's three thousand iron pagodas had lost hundreds of their horses in previous battles, which was similar to the number of Liangshan's tiger cavalry.
Previously, the iron cavalry faced off against each other. It didn't last long, but the intensity was extremely high. Each of them lost no less than a thousand men and horses.
But with two tiger roars, the situation suddenly changed. The morale and combat power of the two sides were ebbing and flowing. The iron pagoda war horses fell down one after another. The tiger cavalry was unreasonable and unforgiving, and the whole army rushed forward with all their strength.
The powerful rivals who were evenly matched just now were now vulnerable to a single blow from the tiger cavalry.
Although Wanyan Xie was a famous general, how could he have expected such a change?
But after hearing two shocking tiger roars, most of the horses under his command fell limp, and the rest also lost their docility and spread their hooves to escape.
Before he could make any decision, he saw the Liangshan Tiger Cavalry flooding the Tiefu Tu and rushing into their own formation without stopping. Two large carts carrying tigers followed the Tiger Cavalry and drove straight in. The two giant tigers roared continuously, not to mention horses. , people can't help but feel flustered.
"Stand the position, hold the position!"
Wanyan Xie also screamed loudly, but the tiger cavalry came like a landslide. How could he be able to stabilize it just because he said it would be stable? The mighty army that was finally gathered was torn in half instantly by the tiger cavalry, just like an iron plow plowing through mud.
Fang Qifu came out of the formation, laughed loudly, and felt full of pride. He reined in his horse and shouted: "Brother Ma, Brother Suo, the three of us will fight separately."
It was rare for Ma Gongzhi to kill freely. He loudly accepted the order. Three fierce generals, each leading five or six hundred tiger cavalry, turned around and killed back, further tearing the Jin army's formation apart.
However, the Liangshan soldiers and horses are not limited to this tiger cavalry?
Fang Jie and Wang De each led a leopard cavalry, crashed into the gap created by the tiger cavalry, and tore at both sides.
Two pairs of generals, Yao Pingzhong, Pang Wanchun, Han Shizhong and Liang Hongyu, each led a flying cavalry, flew along the wings of the Jin army, and shot out the arrows in their bags.
Yue Fei's eyes flashed with brilliance, and he quickly united his remaining troops from Yongguan, Qingzhou, and Fanyang in Youzhou into one force, and personally acted as the sharpshooter, with Zhou Tong on the left and Yang Lin on the right, working together to cover and kill them.
At this point, although the Jin soldiers were still in large numbers, the situation was over, and they were completely destroyed in less than a stick of incense.
"impossible!"
Wanyan Xianye's golden helmet fell to the ground, looking like he was crazy.
He held an iron spear in his hand and stabbed a leopard rider to death, roaring furiously: "Impossible! Send my order quickly to the general, and all the troops will fight to the death on the spot. Take a step back and kill the whole team!"
While he was shouting, he suddenly saw a wave of flags from the south and tens of thousands of troops coming towards them. He could not help but be stunned and exclaimed in a hoarse voice: "Where are these many soldiers coming from again!"
Then I looked around and heard everyone respond in unison: "All the heroes from Liangshan are here, Wanyan Xie also bows down!"
Not long after, the group of soldiers and horses rushed towards them. The leader was a general, wearing golden armor, astride a white horse, holding an iron pole in his hand, and shouted loudly: "I am Wu Mengde of the Han family. I brought my brothers here today. In order to expel the foreign invaders and restore the rivers and mountains! The golden dog recognizes the situation and is captured without mercy. If you resist again, all your heads will be built in the capital to terrify all nations!"
After saying this, the whole army cheered, and the morale of Liangshan soldiers and horses was high. They killed the Jin soldiers like chopping melons and vegetables.
Then they saw Liu Yanzong fleeing in the rebel army formation. He ran into Suo Chao head-on. After a short battle, Suo Chao roared and chopped Liu Yanzong in two with an axe. The surrendering soldiers of the Liao Kingdom under his command knelt down one after another and asked to surrender.
There was also Wanyan Zongqian, who was fighting desperately towards Wanyan Xieye when he ran into two generals, "Yumian General" Han Tao and "Tianmu General" Peng Qi.
The three of them killed each other, and finally managed to survive the conflict, but were stopped by the "Mighty General" Dang Shiying and the "Mighty Tiger" Dang Shixiong.
Zong Qian fought bravely, but Han Tao and Peng Qi chased him from behind. Peng Qi opened his bow and shot an arrow in the leg, causing him to fall from his horse. The Dang brothers and Han Tao rushed to kill him. He shouted: "Brothers, please don't fight. How about I take the four credits?"
The Dang brothers came out together, each stabbed an arm off, and said with a smile: "Brother Han, please do it."
Han Tao said happily: "Thank you for my brotherly love!" The Zaomu tree pierced Zong Qian's throat with just one blow.
The deputy commander of the Jin Army, Wanyan Pujianu, was armed with a mace and was about to rush out. Halfway through the battle, he encountered hundreds of Liangshan troops approaching, led by two generals, "Xuanzhou Tiger" Jia Yuqing and "Xiao Wuchang". "Li Shao.
This family, Yu Qing, used to be an official in Xuanzhou when he was in Mingjiao. Li Shao was the commander under him. They went to Liangshan, but they still lived in the same place. Today's battle, they agreed to compete for the great credit, and now it happens that they Pu Jianu stopped him.
The slave of the Pu family was devoted to survival, and he displayed all his skills to the fullest. He fought for more than ten times in three battles, and killed Li Shao first with one stick.
Jia Yuqing was shocked and shouted: "Brothers, come quickly, this golden general is awesome!"
Before he finished speaking, Pu's slave dismounted him with one blow and beat him to death with another blow.
Just as he was about to walk, he saw a big black man, naked and flying towards him, shouting: "Where is the great golden general?"
Pu's slave said angrily: "A foot soldier is here to block the way of a certain family!" The big black man used two axes in his hands and blocked several moves. His martial arts skills were extraordinary, and his face was filled with surprise. Said: "You are indeed a great golden general!"
Then another black man, riding a black horse and wearing black armor, came running with two maces in hand. He yelled strangely from a distance: "Brother Iron Niu, you can't poop if you eat alone."
Li Kui swung his ax and club, and suddenly whispered: "Jin General, listen carefully, that black man is a famous general in our army. If you try to stop him, you will definitely die."
Listening to his words, Pu's slave seemed to be hiding a glimmer of hope, and quickly whispered: "Good man, if you are willing to let me go, this eight-treasure gold belt is worth a thousand gold, and I am willing to give it to you."
Li Kui said happily: "I see you are a sensible guy, take it off quickly, take it off quickly, don't let anyone see me taking your kickback."
Pu Jianu believed it and quickly took off his belt with his free hand. Li Kui looked at him and saw that he was distracted. He rolled to the front of the horse and chopped off the horse's feet with an axe.
Poor Pu's slave was defenseless and fell upside down on the ground. His head and face were covered in blood, and he exclaimed: "Why did you chop my legs off?"
Li Kui stepped on his mace with his big foot and said with a smile: "You are such a stupid girl, you don't know the clever trick of my Qingzhou Shixian!"
After saying that, he chopped off his head with an axe, tied his hair in a bun, looked at Niu Gao and said, "You are a black man, a brave and foolhardy man, you want to compete with me for credit?"
Niu Gao was so angry that he shouted: "I am so angry! I will definitely kill Xuzhi to convince you."
After that, he looked around and saw a golden marble wielding two sledgehammers, blocking the way and killing people. He was about to rush out, and he suddenly beamed with joy, pointed and said: "Look! There is an extravagant shelter over there. Take a look. I’ll kill him and make a meritorious deed!”
After saying that, he slapped the black horse on his crotch, stabbed it diagonally and shouted, "Don't be so arrogant as a golden dog. Do you recognize the 'Black Wind Tiger' Niu Gao?"
It was a mace that hit his head and covered his face. He had no intention of fighting with the golden marbles. He swung the hammer and Niu Gao's mace disappeared without a trace.
Niu Gao said "Ouch" and ran back without stopping, showing Li Kui his bloody hands: "This golden dog is too extravagant. Unless you and I work together, how can we kill him?"
Li Kui watched helplessly as the golden marbles flew away from Niu Gao's mace, and he waved it as if he was a fly. He was stunned. After listening to Niu Gao's words, he shook his head and said: "This ruthless man, I'm afraid he wants my second brother to come." He can be dealt with, but if you and I want to deal with him, we have to resort to tricks!"
Niu Gao nodded repeatedly: "Okay, tell me how to make a plan? I don't mind winning without force!"
