The sounds of killing, drums, and whistles are heard in the ears, screams, howls, curses, and screams are heard in the soul. Accompanied by the whistling wind and the whistling sound of bows and arrows flying up to the sky and piercing the clouds, as well as the sound of spears intersecting and stabbing shields, they mixed together and became the unique main melody on the battlefield, echoing in Jurong Plains. every corner.

Liu Yu's dragon-slaying sword has been inserted into the scabbard on his back, and in his hand, he holds a standard walking stick, made of Nantang purple bamboo, which is long and tough. Dancing back and forth under the water, the head of the more than four-meter-long branch and the half-foot-long tip were like a poisonous dragon spitting out its tongue, constantly striking at the Chu army's shield formation lined up in front of them.

Liu Yu, on the other hand, was already standing about one and a half steps away from his own formation. Behind him, the Beifu Army infantry in a line were fighting and retreating. Even the line was no longer a completely horizontal line. Liu Yu, He Wuji, Xiang Jing and other more than a dozen battle-experienced veterans stood in front, facing at least fifteen or six of the opponent's spears with their own strength, and then they protected their companions. , keep retreating and regrouping.

"Woo", another burst of bows and arrows rose into the sky, over the heads of the two fighting armies, and poured fiercely into the Beifu Army's formation. The sergeants in the back row raised their small shields to protect their heads and faces. If you wait for the vital points, but cannot take care of the shoulders, arms and other places, you will still inevitably be hit by arrows. Almost every soldier has at least two or three such bows and arrows stuck on his body. Although they are not fatal, they will still be hit by arrows. The location of the arrow slowly seeped blood outward. After all, the Chu army was elite, with strong bows and fast arrows, far beyond the ordinary weak soldiers. After being hoisted, these bows and arrows could still penetrate the sophisticated armor of the Beifu army. , can be clearly proved.

Liu Zhong rushed to Liu Yu's side, raised a large wooden shield in his hand, and put it on Liu Yu's head. He only heard a "pop" and "pop" sound, like raindrops hitting the eaves, and three or four arrows. The arrowheads even penetrated the wooden shield that was several inches thick. These arrows could be seen from the other side. Liu Zhong stuck out his tongue and said, "Brother Jinu, the arrows of the Chu army are really strong. Oops." !”

As he spoke, he suddenly changed his hands and held up the shield with his left hand. When he removed his right hand, you could see that there was a small cut in the palm of his hand, and bloodshot streaks came out.

Liu Yu smiled and said: "It seems that your shield is not safe either, be careful!"

His long spears were suddenly pushed downwards, and two long spears that came from the lower body and stabbed Liu Zhong's feet were suddenly swung away. Liu Zhong jumped back and said: "These Chu barbarians , just stare at the next three stabs."

Liu Yu said in a deep voice: "So these are elite veterans. They know that the big shield on the other side cannot stab people, but the stabbing feet can knock people down, and the shields cannot guard against the feet. We really need to learn more from them in the future." .Go back, I have no problem here."

Liu Zhong returned to the shield formation behind him, looked at Liu Yu who had five or six bows and arrows stuck on his shoulders and arm armor, and said loudly: "Brother Jinu, don't be too reluctant, if it doesn't work, just rotate!"

Liu Yu laughed and danced like a dragon: "I have no problem here. Hold the line and retreat slowly. Also, get rid of these charred corpses. They almost tripped me in front!"

In the center of the Chu army, Wu Fuzhi was beating the drum more and more vigorously. His face was full of excitement, just like the sergeants around him. After an hour, the center of the Chu army had forced the Beifu army back. Four hundred steps later, they even crossed the line of more than thirty charred carts. They saw the Beifu Army's front line in front of them retreating continuously, while our own side pressed forward step by step.

The soldiers of the Chu army who sang war songs and shouted slogans, with high morale, stabbed the Beifu army formation on the opposite side in unison. In each round of stabbing, there were always several Beifu soldiers who penetrated the shields or stabbed them. The soles of his feet fell to the ground.

Once he loses the protection of his shield and falls to the ground, he will be stabbed by more than ten long spears and killed on the spot. Liu Yu and other dozens of veterans with high martial arts skills will hold the school at the front and hold it up with one person. The stabbing attacks of more than a dozen long branches kept buying time for the shaky battle line behind them to retreat.

But even so, under the rounds of arrow fire, these warriors in front were also scarred. They were covered in heavy armor and the arrows were like hedgehogs, and they could not stop their own decline.

The messenger said excitedly: "General, we have changed our formation again. Look, the second team is coming forward. This is a new force. The Beifu Army is about to be unable to withstand it. Ah, what a pity this time, Liu Yu was almost stabbed It's a pity that he jumped over. Hey, the big guy over there was also stabbed and dragged behind. Poor, I almost captured him alive!"

Wu Fuzhi laughed loudly, threw the two drumsticks in his hand into the hands of a strong man who was punching and cheering, jumping and screaming, and said with a smile: "You kid has been watching the show for a long time, hurry up and get to work."

The strongman took the drumstick and began to beat it hard. Wu Fuzhi breathed a long sigh of relief, stretched his arms, and said: "I, the general, can't use all my energy on beating the drum. When the decisive battle is about to begin, I will also We’re going to kill a thief, what’s the battle report from the front now?”

The ordering soldier shouted loudly: "We have killed fifty-seven enemy heads. Our soldiers have lost eighty-seven and injured one hundred and twenty-seven."

Wu Fuzhi curled up his lips and said: "People like Liu Yu are really powerful. Even if they are in front, even if we are defeated, they can cause us greater casualties. I think Liu Yu alone killed at least more than twenty of us." He is a sergeant, but the more he behaves like this, the more interested I am in killing him myself. It’s strange, where are the archers of the Beifu Army? Even if they are small, they won’t be so suppressed that we can’t fight back.”

The messenger smiled and said: "I'm afraid the bow and arrows were burned by the fire scene ahead. After all, the bowstring cannot be coated with fireproof oil."

Wu Fuzhi laughed and patted the messenger on the shoulder: "Boy, you have learned a lot. You have been following this general for many years and you have fought many battles in vain. Now, we are just short of the final strength. Our soldiers from the Chinese army have continued to rise high." We have been fighting for an hour, but it seems that we are not strong enough. I sent an order to General Gao Bao of the rear army. He left deputy general Gao Yanzu with 500 men to guard the rear. He personally led 1,000 men to come to the rescue and give me a charge to defeat Liu Yu!"

Five miles away, to the rear, in the dense forest, on a big tree, covered with leaves, Tan Pingzhi, with eyes as bright as lightning, looked coldly at the battlefield in the distance. He had been guarding the rear. On the road, the Chu army, motionless as a mountain, began to form a large-scale formation and moved forward. The originally thick rear army formation suddenly lost more than half of its people. Those who stayed behind were mostly from the front.

The wounded soldiers who were rotated out, the defeated soldiers of the first two formations, and even the formations were loose.
