Chapter 497
(Today's sixth update is 20,000 words, please give me a monthly ticket!)
Li Cunxiao led the central army to kill him. Before the subsequent infantry of the bandit army caught up, he quickly wiped out the remaining cavalry who were beaten by the spear. Then he did not continue to attack the bandit army as Zhu Wen guessed, but quickly turned around and withdrew the central army's position.
The general of the bandit army, Cai Wenqiu, was stunned by Li Cunxiao's attack. As soon as he took the enemy, the two hundred cavalry of the front army disappeared. These two hundred cavalry are the elite among his elites. Although he has three thousand soldiers and horses, only this cavalry is his treasure. But now, it is gone as soon as he takes action.
After taking this blow, Cai Wenqiu finally realized that the more than a thousand people on the other side were difficult to deal with. However, Cai Wenqiu did not retreat. Although he was not one of Wang Xianzhi's ten-vote coaches, he was also an old brother who followed Wang Xianzhi in his early years. Now he has become a military envoy with the first wing, with three thousand military troops under his command. Moreover, with police in Yucheng, he had to support him.
After gritting his teeth, Cai Wenqiu directly ordered the most commonly used and best-used move of the thief, the human sea tactic. He directly ordered three thousand soldiers and five thousand refugees holding sharpened sticks to go together.
Eight thousand people rushed up, and it was like a flood that broke into the dam.
This time, Zhu Wen's left wing also began to fight, and countless thieves arrived.
Zhu Wen shouted: "Archers shoot arrows, spearmen throw guns, swords and shields follow me!"
The chaotic battle began. The recruits on the left wing shouted to give themselves courage and rushed forward with weapons. He saw a familiar recruit in the team. The guy who was drinking together in the prostitute camp last night had just jumped up and stabbed a thief to death with a spear. As a result, he was slashed half of his head by a knife. There was also a guy who was also drinking together yesterday. He was pierced by several spears and five or six holes were stabbed in his body.
Zhu Zhen performed well, and had cut down two thieves in a row, while Zhu Cun used his flag gun to pierce one of the thieves.
At this moment, a shower suddenly fell from his head. He had no time to see where the arrow was shot from, but the arrow was not distinguished from us at this time. Falling from the sky, both sides of the melee were within his range. Zhu Wen quickly raised the round shield in his hand and hid below.
Zhu Wen hid under the shield and happened to see Li Cunxiao riding the tall horse and leading his troops to rush over, killing the thieves around him to retreat. At this time, a tall spearman rushed towards Li Cunxiao foolishly, but was swung by Li Cunxiao's iron spear and cut off half of his head. Li Cunxiao's horse kept stabbing directly with the tail of the spear, piercing the throat of another enemy. The thief army fell to the ground unwillingly.
Li Cunxiao waved his horse spear, swept across the thousands of troops, and made a terrifying cry.
At this time, Zhu Wen avoided the rain of arrows. He also jumped off the earth wall and rushed into the enemy formation. The fortifications they worked hard to build were indeed useful. But facing the enemy army that was like a tide, the effect was limited.
A thief army poked at his chest with a spear in his hand. Zhu Wen waved his flag spear and blocked the spear. The man jumped back and prepared to do it again, but Zhu Wen followed a single shot across the army, swept the man's legs, swept him to the ground, stabbed him to death with a spear, and stabbed him to death directly. Zhu Zhen was surrounded by three thief legions. Zhu Wen's troops stabbed one of them with one shot, but did not draw the gun, but directly pulled the sword and stabbed the other person in the back of the back. Zhu Zhen slashed the man's neck with one knife, chopping off his head.
A brother of the auxiliary army fell to him and lay softly on the ground. A spear penetrated into his back and came out of his abdomen. There was no one to save him, but when Zhu Wen saw a thief army running over with a knife to cut his head, he roared and charged forward.
The other party held a sword to fight. It was a tall and thin man. He was wearing a red iron armor and an iron helmet, and even an auxiliary arm armor on his hand. Zhu Wen aimed at his neck and slashed hard, but the guy waved his sword to the edge.
"Go to die!" the man screamed.
Zhu Wen had a few consecutive moves with him, but he was not as strong as him, so he had to turn around him and constantly slash his face.
"Go to die!" The man shouted loudly and jumped up to attack.
Zhu Wen quickly raised his shield and was hit by this slam. The shield made a loud noise, bursting suddenly, and the broken wood pieces spread out from his hands. The man roared and chopped again. Zhu Wen was forced to block it a few times, and the tiger's mouth was bleed and dizzy.
The man smiled at Zhu Wen and slashed at him with a knife.
Unexpectedly, a person rushed from behind him and slashed his calves with one knife. The man screamed and knelt down. Zhu Wen jumped up and chopped off his head.
"It's you who dies!" Zhu Wen said viciously, and then he looked up and saw that the old brother Zhu Cun had just saved his life.
Zhu Cun was covered in blood at this time and couldn't figure out who it was. The team of swords and weapons he commanded had already been disrupted at this time. About two hundred people were attacked by thousands of people, and they had already fought in a group.
"The thief is in charge of the army. I dare to kill my brother and take my life!" A voice shouted from behind, with a loud voice, riding a big horse and rushing towards him.
The two brothers raised their swords together to fight. The general immediately swept it with a horse spear in his hand. Zhu Wen and Zhu Cun were both swept down together. Fortunately, they were wearing armor. A violent burst suddenly burst, and the knife in his hand immediately took off. He wanted to reach out to pick it up, but the iron hoof of the war horse had already stepped over.
A dizzying collision, Zhu Wen was knocked away by a war horse. He wanted to stand up, but he was blocked all over his body in pain, and felt the whole world shaking. The general who knocked him to fly ran over again, and the horse spear in his hand was already raised high.
The war horse was getting bigger and bigger in his eyes. Zhu Wen's hands were numb, the tiger's mouth was still bleeding, his eyes were dizzy, and his vision was blurred. He showed a slight smile on his face, and he was going to die here today.
The horse's hooves were close to him. The next moment, the general's horse spear would not pierce into his body, and the horse's iron hooves could also trample him to death.
Suddenly, the war horse found the scream of the Sei Li, and suddenly became soft and his entire horse fell forward.
With a loud bang, the war horse fell to the ground and slid for a distance, shaking up a burst of dust. Finally, it stopped less than half a foot from Zhu Wen.
When he came to his senses, he wiped the dust on his face. Only then did he see that the extremely majestic war horse had just stepped on a trap, and the horse fell off its front. And the general was pressed under the horse by the war horse. The incident happened suddenly. Before he could pick the kick, he was overwhelmed, and one foot was suppressed. The other hand was also twisted and weird.
Zhu Wen shook his head and shook his head. He touched the knife from the ground. The general of the thief army shouted weakly: "I surrender, I surrender!"
Zhu Wen picked up the horse spear that fell to the ground first, holding the heavy horse spear, Zhu Wen's dizzy head seemed to be awake. He turned around and looked at him, and Zhu Zhen was helping his second brother Zhu Cun to come.
The battle seemed to be coming to an end. On the left side of his place, there were no living people except the corpses everywhere.
A group of crows hovering over the sky, landing on the ground from time to time and pecking.
Zhu Zhen looked at his puzzled look and wiped the blood stains on his face. He smiled and said to him: "Commander Wang and Commander Gao have just led their troops to support him. They have lost their courage to kill the enemy. Now the thief army is fleeing south."
Zhu Wen smiled and turned around to look at the guy who was still pressed on the horse.
"I accept your surrender, and now, report your name!"
"The grass army knows that the soldiers and horses are envoys Cai Wenqiu." Cai Wenqiu, who was under the horse, endured the severe pain and replied helplessly.
The three of them sat on the pile of corpses, gasping for breath. At this time, a sound of horse hooves sounded, and Li Cunxiao led a team of cavalry by. Looking at the three of them, he laughed and said, "Looking at your appearance, you can't die for a while. Boy, it's good, I can hold on until now.
Zhu Wen reached out and pointed to the horse, "Report to the commander, we caught a prisoner, claiming to be the thief, Cai Wenqiu, the military commander."
Cai Wenqiu shouted under the horse: "I am not a prisoner, I am following in the battle."
Li Cunxiao sent several people to rescue Cai Wenzhou from the horse and confirmed that he was the chief general of the thief army, and couldn't help laughing. At this time, the sound of the trumpet sounded again, but it came from the north.
The reinforcements from the north of Yucheng arrived. Li Cunxiao turned over and said to Zhu Wen: "I will go to the north and I will leave the battlefield here to clean. This time I did a good job, and you will be the commander of anyone afterwards." After that, he rode his horse and rushed past, and the soldiers behind him followed closely. The afternoon sun shone on the tip of the spear, and the red battle flag of the auxiliary army was flying above his head.
The bandit army in the southeast was captured, the elite cavalry was annihilated, and the main infantry was also defeated. It had just broken down under the command and impact of several powerful generals, like snow under the sun.
Zhu Wen felt his whole body was swollen and painful, as if he had fallen apart. At this time, he could not do anything else. He and Zhu Zhen and Zhu Cun looked for their subordinates together. Many of them were found in the pile of dead people. There were only eighteen living people in the team, and a few of them were seriously injured and had disabilities with broken legs.
A dozen people searched the dead, and finally found about a hundred living people, including more than twenty seriously injured. There were more bodies found. In this battle, one thousand of them intercepted them here, more than 30 were seriously injured, more than 30 were killed in battle, and almost everyone was injured. The casualties were reduced by more than 40%, an extremely high number.
They died and injured nearly 400 times, but there were also many thieves. On the battlefield, the thieves left more than a thousand corpses, and hundreds of injured and had no time to escape. Although these more than a thousand were not the achievements of their two battalions, it was amazing that one thousand of them could block so many thieves and finally persisted in helping the other battalions.
"What should everyone do?" Zhu Zhen pointed to the injured prisoners of the thief. There were more than a hundred prisoners. At this time, they were confiscated and squatted or lying on the ground.
Zhu Wen looked back at the people of him, all of whom were injured, and more of them had become cold bodies lying on the ground. He couldn't help but feel angry in his heart, "Kill!"
"Okay!" Zhu Zhen immediately jumped up, without any hesitation, and directly led a group of people to the side and beheaded. There were screams and begging for mercy, but Zhu Wen was not moved at all. Since he dared to rebel, he must be prepared to be killed today.
After a long time, the river beach calmed down, and the wind was filled with a strong smell of blood.
Zhu Zhen was covered in blood, and walked over with a knife full of gaps as if she had soaked in the blood. "Three brothers, cut them all, no one left!"
Zhu Cun also came over at this time, carrying a big bag and threw it in front of them.
"What's this?"
"The property found from the thief's corpse."
Zhu Wen looked down and saw that there were a lot of things. He nodded, "Divide the things to the surviving brothers."
"All of them were divided?" Zhu Cun was a little surprised.
"It's all divided." Zhu Wen said lightly.
After the wealth was divided, more than a hundred people surviving on the battlefield were all one. Everyone was very happy and admired Zhu Wen. Later, Zhu Wen commanded to cut off the heads of the bandits, and then cut off the heads to take them back to ask for merit. The headless corpse was thrown directly into the river.
After packing up everything, it was almost dusk. Zhu Wen asked someone to temporarily pile up the preparations on the battlefield and wait for it to come back to take them. Then he brought the wounded to Yucheng together. Yucheng had completely fallen into the hands of the auxiliary army. Liu Xun and others had just defeated the thousands of thieves coming to the north to help, and had just returned to the city.
"A beautiful victory!" Liu Xun saw Zhu Wen who was back and smiled and said to him: "You guys fought very well today."
Zhu Wen was excited and felt very flattered. He hurriedly said, "These are all the yamen commanders who are good at it. We just did our duty."
"If you do your duty, you cannot block the offensive of more than 1,000 thieves with more than 200 people, and it is even more impossible to capture a general of the thief alive. In today's battle, Team Zhu should remember a great merit. Looking back, I will personally ask the general for your merits."
Zhu Wen was very excited and knelt down quickly: "Thank you for the promotion of the yamen, I will never forget my job."
"Where are those prisoners?" Liu Xun asked with a smile.
"The subordinates killed them."
The atmosphere in the air suddenly became dull and dull. Liu Xun stared at him with black pupils, and the smile on his face suddenly turned into coldness, which made him tremble a little.
"Who asked you to kill prisoners?" Liu Xun's low voice rang.
An ominous premonition arose in Zhu Wen's heart and he stuttered: "No...no one, the little one is just thinking..."
"Bang!" Liu Xun slapped the table and shouted angrily: "If no one gives an order, you dare to kill the prisoners without saying a word? Who gave you such a courage? How many prisoners have you killed?"
"More than one hundred." Zhu Wen said with his head down.
“How many one hundred?”
Zhu Wen turned his head and looked at Zhu Zhen. Zhu Zhen was also frightened at this time, with a pale face, lowered his head and said to Zhu Wen: "One hundred and eighty-seven."
Liu Xun had heard this number and his face looked even more ugly.
"One hundred and eighty-seven, Zhu Wen, you are so brave. You dare to make decisions without authorization. Killing and capturing 187 people is simply a rebellion. Do you still have military discipline in your eyes? Take down Zhu Wen by someone." Liu Xun shouted.
