Chapter 135: Don't take prisoners
As time went by, the Shanzi Camp, which was trapped in the Long Fei Formation, suffered greater and greater losses. Only seven or eight people were left beside the Duwei Ling Jun, who were struggling to support him. He looked around and looked anxious, "Why haven't the people outside attacked yet?"
"I guess we can't attack. We may die here in battle this time."
The voice of the captain beside him was a little low. As the surrounding soldiers disappeared into the military formation one by one, the despair in his heart became greater and greater.
Moreover, because he kept running in the formation, his physical strength was consumed very seriously, which made his movements slower and slower. Even if he continued, he would be exhausted even if he was not killed.
"Don't say these despicable words, our Shanzi Camp followed the general and made many tough battles. I don't believe this time - be careful!"
Before he could finish his words, the three shield walls around him opened almost at the same time. As a long halberd was pierced out, the people around Ling Jun were stabbed to the ground one by one, even he was no exception.
After falling to the ground, he immediately felt a powerful force pulling his body suddenly. When he came to his senses, there were already enemy infantrymen around him.
"ah!"
Ling Jun suddenly turned a long sword in his hand and climbed up. However, before he could make any other moves, the three-sided shield pressed over and squeezed him in the middle, unable to move. Then a long sword pierced through the gap at his neck and pierced through his neck. The movement was simple and sharp, as if it had cooperated countless times.
As a large amount of blood sputtered out, Ling Jun's consciousness gradually drifted away from his body, and finally completely lost consciousness and became a corpse.
When the last infantryman in Shanziying fell, Bai Li's soldiers were finally able to free up their hands, and the sword and shield soldiers who came to save the scene were immediately in trouble.
The originally tight military formation suddenly turned into an ordinary long snake formation. Thousands of white soldiers lined up, holding shields and holding halberds to press towards the sword and shield soldiers.
The reason why the Dragon Flying Formation was not used this time was that once the military formation was formed, it could not move forward. It could only lead them into the formation while waiting for the enemy to attack.
However, it is not necessary to use the Dragon Flying Formation to deal with ordinary troops such as the sword and shield soldiers. With the strong defense of Bai Li's soldiers, they only need to use shield walls to defend and sting together. This simple and direct attack method can defeat the sword and shield soldiers step by step.
The shield defense area of the sword and shield soldiers is limited, and the light armor on their bodies cannot block the sharp long halberd. Often, the long halberd in their hands is hit by the long halberd that has been stabbed before the machete.
"Retreat quickly! Everyone retreats quickly!"
The captain of the sword and shield soldier quickly noticed the Bai Li soldiers who were beginning to close on both sides. His face suddenly changed drastically. He hurriedly directed the soldiers to retreat. He could not defeat them at first, but if he was surrounded again, he would really be a turtle in a jar.
Although the reaction was timely, when the war started, the two sides were entangled. You could not retreat just by wanting to retreat. In the end, many soldiers were surrounded, and less than a thousand people escaped.
On the top of the city, Liu Feng saw this scene and knew that the overall situation was settled. So he immediately turned around and began to recruit soldiers in the city. As the points of merit continued to decrease, three thousand crossbowmen and two thousand spearmen appeared in the city.
After these soldiers appeared, the first thing they did was to prepare to salute Liu Feng, the lord. Fortunately, he reacted quickly enough and quickly reached out to stop him. If the five thousand people saluted, the movement would be quite loud. It would definitely alarm the Qian army outside. It would be bad if they scared them away.
After arriving some officers, Liu Feng asked the five thousand people to ambush the city, waiting for the army to enter the city.
Outside the city, after more than a thousand sword and shield soldiers were killed, the Bai Li soldiers immediately formed an ordinary square formation and began to forge towards Luo Cheng.
"What should I do with the general?"
The surrounding lieutenants looked at Luo Cheng and waited for him to make an idea.
"How about we retreat, the heavy armored infantry is slow and will definitely not be able to catch up with us, so there is no need to fight hard."
"no!"
Luo Cheng held the long sword tightly and refused the suggestion of retreat without hesitation. "We are the Zhenguo Army. Now we can't even defeat a small army of rebels and still have to escape. It's said that the Zhenguo Army has no face."
In fact, it was mainly because of unwillingness and fear of being punished by the second prince. After all, the losses of Shanzi Camp are a big deal for the entire Zhenguo Army.
Luo Cheng rode a few steps on his horse, then pointed to the county town behind and said, "The whole army retreated to the city, and we used the terrain inside to fight with them. In this way, the power of the military formation could not be exerted. The heavy armored infantry could not last long. As long as they exhausted their physical strength, we would definitely win."
"Abide by the order!"
The surrounding lieutenants took the order one after another, and then commanded the command to return to the county town along the city gate.
When Luo Cheng and the remaining 4,000 soldiers rushed into the city, a large number of crossbow soldiers immediately emerged from the roofs on both sides. In addition, thousands of spearmen rushed out quickly in front of them, forming square formations, blocking the road.
All this happened so suddenly that Luo Cheng and the others never expected that such a thing would happen, and they all looked like they were looking damn.
"shoot!"
As a loud shout echoed around, crossbow soldiers on both sides pulled the trigger and shot the crossbow arrows in their hands at the soldiers below.
"Do not to escape!"
"Don't run around!"
"Arrow fights back!"
“Ah~ah~”
······
The soldiers suddenly became chaotic. In order to avoid crossbow arrows, they ran around like headless flies. There were many infantrymen who died in this wave of arrow rain, but they were pushed by their companions and trampled to death.
At this time, Luo Cheng could no longer control the troops around him. He was also inserted into a crossbow arrow on his shoulder. If it weren't for the critical moment that several personal soldiers blocked him, he would probably have turned into a corpse now.
"General, escape!"
The surrounding soldiers escorted him and wanted to escape from the city gate, but as soon as they rushed out, they met the Bai Li soldier who had arrived here.
Luo Cheng rode on the horse and looked at the armored soldiers blocking the front, feeling as if he was ashamed. He struggled for a moment, turned over and dismounted, took off his sword, threw it on the ground, and prepared to surrender.
After seeing this, the soldiers around them also put down their weapons.
"Don't take prisoners, kill!"
On the top of the city, Liu Feng stood there, looked down, and ordered coldly.
Hearing this order, Bai Libing raised his long spear and forced Luo Cheng and others at the gate of the city. Luo Cheng rolled and picked up the thrown sword and began to resist.
With the sword that cuts iron like mud, Luo Cheng cuts off the long halberd and splits the shield. After killing four or five people in a row, he is stabbed to death by the long halberd at the city gate. After Luo Cheng dies, the remaining soldiers quickly follow in his footsteps.
