Taoist Songfeng sighed: "In a war, someone must rush to the front, and someone will always be sacrificed. Just like in the previous battle, weren't you also on the flanks, acting as a suspect? But my other subordinates wanted to Don't people have any objections to standing in front and suffering heavy casualties?"
Qi Qianli sighed: "Well, what you said makes sense. At this time, the military situation is urgent and we can't care about so much. Brothers, let me ask you one last time, do you all have no opinions on this battle?"
All the Qiang and Di soldiers shouted in unison: "We are willing to fight, we are willing to fight."
Taoist Songfeng nodded excitedly and said: "Okay, they are all good men and good men. I guarantee that after winning this battle, you will definitely get what you want."
Qi Qianli glanced at Taoist Songfeng: "Brother Songfeng, this time you charge with us, no problem."
Taoist Songfeng's face changed slightly, and he was about to open his mouth to find an excuse, but he saw a faint flash of murderous intent in Qi Qianli's eyes, and his hand was pressed on the handle of the knife. He quickly laughed and said: "Of course it is. , since we are going to charge into the battle, we should keep charging. I happened to be coming on horseback, so I will charge shoulder to shoulder with you, Lao Qi."
Qi Qianli nodded and pointed to the Tianshi Tao army formation in the direction of Li Nanfeng: "The Tianshi Tao soldiers named Li are not watching the show in the back. I think Brother Songfeng, you just defeated the Jin army's rear army. The third line of defense lasted for half a day, and Li Nanfeng didn't send troops to follow up."
Taoist Songfeng shook his head: "Now we are on the same boat, and he is an infantryman. He can't run away from the enemy cavalry. If we are all killed, it will be his turn next. This time we are fighting for life and death, and we will not sit back and watch. This is a reason for others to fight hard. Besides, I am here too. If he really messes up, I will tell the Lord later that the Tiandao Alliance has a way to deal with him."
Qi Qianli roared: "In that case, brothers, throw away all your trophies, raise your sabers, and pick up your spears. This time, let these Jin people learn how cavalry fights." , rush for me!"
As he spoke, he took the lead and rushed out, followed closely by Taoist Songfeng. The Qiang and Di cavalry behind him also threw away the trophies on their mounts. Together with Qi Qianli, they rode without formation. A full-line attack was launched towards the Jin cavalry formation more than a mile away.
The Jin army, riding in formation, takes the lead.
Liu Zunkao took the lead and rushed to the front. He raised his hand, and the dense cavalry behind him stopped as if they had stepped on the brakes at the same time. Only the smoke and dust raised by running all the way drowned the people behind. Beside him, Zhu Xiuzhi pointed to the direction in front of the Qiang and Di cavalry rushing towards this place, and said: "Brother Zunkao, look, the enemy's Qiang cavalry who were still plundering just now have also turned around and prepared to join the battle. .”
Liu Zunkao laughed: "They are just a mob, not heavy cavalry. I think it is not so much that they want to fight, but rather that they want to take the opportunity to rush out from our front, so as to have a chance to evacuate the battlefield."
Zhu Xiuzhi was a little surprised: "How can brother Zunkao tell that they want to escape rather than fight?"
Liu Zunkao pointed at the incoming Qiang and Di cavalry and said: "If we are coming to fight, we should be coming in a tight formation, but now it is a skirmish charge. It is not trying to stop our cavalry formation at all. Attack, but want to stagger past our army's rear. They attack like this, either because they want to charge from the front and then leave, or they want to think about the situation behind our army's formation and then see how we fight with the enemy's infantry. Come back with a killing blow."
Zhu Xiuzhi laughed: "That's really the plan. Brother Zunkao has good eyesight, so how are we going to deal with these Qiang and Di cavalry?"
Liu Zunkao looked back and asked, "Where are the Jiangzhou infantrymen who followed?"
Zhu Xiuzhi said without hesitation: "The rear army of the Jiangzhou Army is the Jingzhou soldiers led by Brother Xiaoshi. They are led by deputy general Wang Jingjiu. They have already accelerated their march and are about two miles away from us."
Liu Zunkao murmured: "Erli, well, I remember that most of them are crossbowmen, right?"
Zhu Xiuzhi nodded: "Yes, most of them are crossbowmen, but they can also fight in close combat. Why does brother Zunkao ask about these infantry? We need to deal with these monster cavalry first. I'm afraid the crossbowmen can't do it."
Liu Zunkao smiled and pointed forward with his whip: "Of course it is not easy for a crossbowman to be attacked from the front by a cavalry formation. This is also a taboo in the art of war. But if it is to ambush the crossbowmen, when their formation is scattered, it is best to start from Attacking from the flank or in the smoke can cause a lot of casualties. At this time, if the cavalry is used to counterattack, the enemy will be defeated. Now that the infantry of the rebel army is in frontal formation, while the cavalry is counterattacking, we have defeated the enemy. The cavalry also has to face the problem of the enemy's infantry formation, and in my opinion, Li Nanfeng is very cunning when he reaches the rear. In the previous battle, he has not been able to advance. When the two armies are fighting, he will launch rocket attacks. This cannot be ruled out. He will try his old tricks again. Therefore, it is best for us to draw out the enemy's cavalry and cooperate with our infantry to defeat them in one fell swoop. Then, chase their defeated troops and counterattack their infantry array. Our infantry and cavalry will follow up and kill them. Then you can defeat the thief in one fell swoop!”
Zhu Xiuzhi laughed: "I understand, I completely understand. Now I will go back and inform Jingjiu to prepare him to ambush these Qiang cavalry from a mile away!"
Liu Zunkao said seriously: "I will lead a hundred cavalry forward to fight. I will pretend to be defeated. You can lead the other troops back first. Be careful to separate the two sides and leave the crossbowmen in front. If the enemy's cavalry arrives, thousands of arrows will be fired, and the cavalry will attack!" "
Zhu Xiuzhi turned around and ran towards the rear. Behind him, a large number of dense cavalry also followed. Liu Zunkao looked back at his side. There were fifty or sixty cavalry accompanying him. He took a deep breath: "Brothers, follow me forward to fight, gallop around a hundred paces, and the enemy will retreat within thirty paces and scatter in all directions. Don't be reluctant to fight, do you understand?"
The cavalry around them all shouted: "Obey the order!"
The Qiang and Di cavalry formation marched thousands of miles together. More than a hundred riders rushed in front, making various shouts and shouts to show their authority. Songfeng Taoist walked alongside them, walking side by side. Look behind you from time to time.
Qi Qianli curled his lips and said: "Okay, Brother Songfeng, at this time, we don't expect Li Nanfeng behind us. He may really want us to fight to the death with the Jin army, but we also Don't be stupid, charge forward first, don't fight back immediately after reaching the enemy's rear, and let the Jin army's cavalry go over and attack Li Nanfeng's infantry formation, wouldn't it be better?"
