Chapter 72 The Great Victory at Baishijiang
It was bright and clear, but everyone could see clearly. But the sky is still a bright gray.
On the east bank of Baishi River.
Fu Zhong had already taken off his clothes, and his whole body was naked. The scars and thick hair all over his body reveal a kind of masculine arrogance. Fu Zhong's men also took off their clothes. He said: "I, the eldest son of the Marquis of Yingchuan, you all know, but you don't know that my father, first from Liu Futong and then from Chen Youliang, saw that Chen Youliang was innocent and defected to me. It has never had anything to do with it. All the glory and wealth have been It was shot with one knife and one shot. Today, I am nothing, just an ordinary member of the army. Today's war is about to begin, and glory and wealth are now. I will fight with you."
"Kill. Kill, kill." Fu Zhong's men shouted.
Fu Zhong said: "Wear armor."
So everyone put on rattan armor. Carrying a steel crossbow, a long knife, or a spear.
First, a few people with good water skills started in front, dragging a long rope in their hands, and the soldiers behind grabbed the rope one by one and started to enter the water.
Fu Zhong took the lead. At the front.
Baishijiang River is famous for its white stones under the water. The bottom of the river is relatively flat, and the deepest part of the water is no more than a person's head. However, there were more southerners among the Ming army, and they were not unable to swim. Not to mention wearing rattan armor, it's like wearing a life jacket.
It has its own buoyancy, so there is no big problem.
In fact, Fu Zhong couldn't find out if there was a problem at this moment. He was at the front, and even though there were a few people behind him who failed to grab the rope or were not used to the water, they were washed away by the water. Fu Zhong didn't know either. Even if he knew, he turned a blind eye.
This is no longer the time to cherish this.
When Fu Zhong and others were approaching the other side, someone on the other side shouted in surprise. Immediately, someone's head came out from the camp. A hello. Immediately hundreds of archers showed their heads, there was a bang, and a shower of arrows shot out.
Several of the soldiers at the front were hit by arrows. Even a few ropes came loose instantly.
Seeing this, Fu Zhong strode out of the river. I found a big rock dozens of meters away from the river and took off the steel crossbow from my back without using the cocking mechanism at all. He shot several arrows in succession, knocking down several people who appeared in the camp.
This is why Fu Zhong must have a steel crossbow.
No matter ordinary bows, arrows or firearms, they cannot be used at this time. The steel crossbow is a steel string. Although it has problems of one kind or another, even after being soaked in river water, the steel crossbow will definitely rust in the future. Not even maintenance can save it.
But at this time, he can still be used.
Liang Wangjun also never expected it. There is actually a crossbow on the opposite side. I was stunned for a moment. The rain of arrows stopped.
At this moment, several ropes were tied to the other side. Fu Zhong's soldiers walked out of the river one by one. See Fu Zhong here. He immediately moved closer to Fu Zhong, took off the steel crossbows and cocked them one by one, and fired at the archers in the Yuan army camp.
Although it is said that Fu Zhong's soldiers all have rattan armor on their bodies. But the other party is in the camp. There are village walls and arrow towers. Take advantage of the shooting. For a time, the Ming army suffered many casualties.
Fu Zhong looked at the wall opposite, which was about a foot high. It was hit by a lot of steel crossbow arrows. As I said before, steel crossbows are harder, have a long range and are powerful. The disadvantage is that it is difficult to wind up, and now Fu Zhong has seen the results.
Fu Zhong shouted loudly and said: "Follow me." He threw the steel crossbow aside, took out the long knife, bit it in his mouth, and ran frantically to the bottom of the camp. In one moment, he was hit by several arrows. Fortunately, he also has a layer of chain armor inside the rattan armor. That's why it didn't turn into a bloody hole when it was shot. But even so, Fu Zhong felt a tearing pain in the wound.
Like a madman, he threw himself on the wall and grabbed the arrows that shot into the wall. Borrowing strength from above, he climbed up the village wall in a few steps.
Such an action made both our army and the enemy scream in surprise.
Fu Zhong climbed up the wall of the village, grabbed the knife he was biting, and roared like a wild beast. On the one hand, he was venting the pain all over his body. On the other hand, Fu Zhong was also going crazy at the moment.
In fact, Fu Zhong's martial arts skills were pretty good. After all, when Fu Youde was young, he was a fierce general who could rush into battle and was rarely invincible. Fu Zhong was trained by Fu Youde. It's just that the amount of martial arts and how much it can be used are two different things.
Fu Zhong's foundation is very good, even better than Fu Youde's back then. Fu Youde had no one to teach him back then, he was all trained in battles on the battlefield. Later, when I achieved success, I slowly figured out some training and killing techniques. The education Fu Zhong received since childhood was something Fu Youde figured out only after he became famous.
But if Fu Zhong practices well, he may not be able to perform well. Many reactions on the battlefield can only be understood by personal experience. No matter what others say or teach, it is of no use. But for those who are just starting out, it is difficult for them to get a second chance when faced with life and death.
One miss, no matter how well trained before, is still a dead man.
At this moment, Fu Zhong has passed this hurdle. But he didn't know that between life and death, this kind of extreme excitement, extreme fear, and many feelings that Fu Zhong couldn't even describe, gave Fu Zhong only one thought, and that was to kill, kill, kill.
As long as there is one living thing in front of you. The subconscious is just a knife, not the brain at all. It seems that every limb has its own murderous instinct.
Fortunately, Fu Zhong's personal guards are all old people arranged by Fu Youde. Rich battlefield experience. After Fu Zhong opened the gap, he commanded Fu Zhong's men to rush in.
Half an hour later, the sun shone golden light. Fu Zhong finally came to his senses and fell down among the corpses. Covered in blood, the long knife in his hand fell ten feet away, and he grabbed a corpse in his hand. The corpse's throat was bitten open and torn off.
Even in his dead eyes, there was still fear.
"Master, drink some water." An old servant said.
Fu Zhong's reaction was a little slow. When I touched my mouth, there was blood all over it. I thought I was injured. I quickly looked at the wound, but there was no one. At this time, the previous scene flashed past my eyes like a revolving lantern. He rushed into the enemy group and killed them for several days with a long sword. Even the long knife was broken. After taking away the opponent's sword, the enemy in front of him seemed to be an officer. With some skill, during the battle with him, the long knife knocked open the tiger's mouth. He could no longer hold the knife in his hand, and the opponent's knife was also lost.
Then, he pounced and bit his opponent's throat.
"I seem to have drank blood." Fu Zhong suddenly turned pale and stopped talking about drinking water. He immediately vomited.
The old servant immediately stepped forward, patted Fu Zhong on the back, handed him some water, and said, "Master, drink some water before vomiting. It will make vomiting more comfortable."
Fu Zhong was almost vomiting, but upon hearing this, he started vomiting again.
The old servant smiled and said: "Young Master, you are exactly like me, especially the last move of biting the throat, which is really powerful."
The old servant followed Fu Youde and saw many cruel battlefields, and his praise for Fu Zhong was definitely not false. Without him, how could Fu Zhong survive? He was the first to rush into the enemy's stronghold. Even though he is very skilled, there may not be strong opponents among the enemy, such as the one who was bitten to death by Fu Zhong. The two of them slashed down, and all the knives in their hands fell apart. At least it shows that there is not much difference in strength between the two.
In fact, the reason why Fu Zhong really survived was because he went crazy.
Especially when he bites someone to death in the end. This frightened King Liang's army.
Liang Wangjun had been in peace for a long time. They could accept being killed with a knife, but they couldn't bear it. They were bitten to death forcefully and were frightened all of a sudden. He didn't dare to step forward. At this time, the Ming army entered the stronghold. Fu Zhongcai survived.
if not. No matter how powerful Fu Zhong is, he can't block a group of guns with both hands.
But Fu Zhong's face was full of blood at this moment, but there was no color left. When he thought that he had just bitten a person to death. As if he had swallowed something, Fu Zhong couldn't bear it anymore and vomited again. Even if everything is vomited out of his stomach. He was still throwing up.
Fortunately, the old servant was experienced and took charge of the overall situation on behalf of Fuzhong, cleaning the camp and lighting cigarettes to report the news.
After a while, rafts came over from the other side one by one, with ropes fixed here. In half a day, a pontoon bridge was built.
At this time, Liang Wangjun still seemed to have not reacted, and no one was sent to counterattack.
Mu Ying rode over from the pontoon and saw Fu Zhong looking weak, so she thought Fu Zhong was injured. He laughed loudly and said: "Brother Fu Xian, you are the first to win this battle. I will definitely uphold the Holy Spirit. This is a tiger father without a dog son. Now you can hold the pontoon bridge for the time being and welcome the large group of people to cross the river."
"Yes." Fu Zhong said.
At this moment, Mu Ying took advantage of his illness. Take his life. Although Muying only has a few thousand troops at the moment due to the division of troops, garrisoning in the rear, and even the pontoon bridge's transport capacity, while Qujing City is said to have hundreds of thousands of troops. However, Mu Ying did not hesitate to lead her headquarters to Qujing City.
Liang Wangjun didn't seem to have thought at all. They felt that the natural dangers could not stop the Ming army from attacking. Unexpectedly, the army that crossed the Baishi River continued to march towards Qujing City without stopping at all. There was a sudden panic. It would be okay if they didn't panic. They panicked for a while, and Mu Ying saw the flaw.
Although it is said to be an army of hundreds of thousands, not to mention that there are no vacancies among them, there are various tricks such as the deployment of chieftain soldiers. In Mu Ying's view, the thousands of troops who had simply lost their organization were nothing more than chickens and dogs.
When night fell, Fu Youde led the rear army and began to cross the river one after another. Although several floating bridges have been built. But for thousands of troops, it is still not enough. A large number of troops were stationed on both sides of the Baishi River.
At this moment, Fu Youde also saw Fu Zhong.
Although Fu Zhong didn't eat or change clothes all day today, his blood was still there and even smelled a bit. It can be said that he is in a miserable state, but in Fu Youde's view, Fu Zhong is doing very well at this moment. Because Fu Zhong has the temperament of a battlefield veteran.
