The Xiushui River Bridge appeared in Zhong Zhen's vision. He slowly pulled his horse. In front of him, two thousand cavalry stood on horseback. Behind him and left and right, more and more infantry rushed up and began to line up.

On the Xiushui River, the sun and moon flag of the Ming Dynasty fluttered high, which made him frown slightly. This is the land of the Qin Dynasty. How can we tolerate the enemy's flags shining and showing off our might? After killing the generals and seizing the flag later, we must trample under our feet and spitting a few spits to make our heart feel comfortable.

In fact, he has been very happy since he left the Rocky Mountains.

He fought in the Luoying Mountains for nearly twenty years, forged an indissoluble bond with that land, and also rose to the commanding general. However, the change in the Luoying Mountains several years ago fell a huge shadow in his heart. He could not forget the scene when his immediate boss Yang Zhi led hundreds of generals and soldiers who launched a military coup, rushed towards the Chu army tragically and desperately.

Hundreds of people survived. They failed to even rush to the other party's formation and fell into the rain-like arrows. They went to die, and under the pressure of Bian Wushuang, they voluntarily went to die in order not to be taken to the guillotine on the charge of treason and thus harming their family relatives.

During that thrilling coup, he was lucky enough to stand in the right team and was promoted and made a fortune because of it, but he was not suffering all the time.

He did not gain Bian Wushuang's trust. He was promoted because Bian Wushuang wanted to use him to appease the soldiers of the Luoying Mountains. In other words, he was just a archway, a archway that boasted Bian Wushuang's righteousness.

As Bian Wushuang took root in the Luoying Mountains, as his control over the army became stronger and stronger, he was increasingly marginalized. And he became increasingly unhappy with Bian Wushuang.

They should have been the sharp sword of the Qin Dynasty against the Western Army of Chu, but since Bian Wushuang took office, their relationship with the Chu army has improved. In a few years, there have been almost no days for the two countries to meet each other, and even the hunting between the scouts and cavalry were almost gone.

This is because Bian Wushuang almost completely gave up his management of the Luoying Mountains. Even if An Ruhai, the Chu State, led his troops away, and then the deputy general Suqian led another 20,000 Western troops to the Eastern Front. At such a great opportunity, Bian Wushuang did not launch even a battle. If he could take advantage of such a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to recapture Jingjing Pass, then Nanyang of Chu State would be the granary that Qin Yu wanted.

But it is obvious that Bian Wushuang's focus is not on anything.

This made Zhong Zhen very angry, and Bian Wushuang looked at the country.

This time, the Qin Dynasty had reached the critical moment of life and death. Bian Wushuang held a hundred thousand troops in his hand, but he did not have the intention to save the country and continue his demise, even though he sent 50,000 soldiers.

These 50,000 people are not Bian Wushuang's direct lineage. Many of them are either some of the generals who survived the Luoying Mountains, or the Thunder Army generals transferred to the border army. Like themselves, they were all excluded and criticized in the border army.

These 50,000 people were very sad in the Luoying Mountains. Incomplete military pay was the norm, and military rations were not continued. They were often hungry and full. The weapons and armor they used were all old goods eliminated by the Bian tribe. In the past two years, Zhong Zhen’s daily life was to find food for the troops.

His life was very difficult.

However, the hard days finally came to an end, and Bian Wushuang took this opportunity to send them out. The 50,000 border troops, including the former border troops' right-wing general Jin Shoude as the main general and himself as the deputy general, responding to the mobilization order of Emperor Yongdu.

After arriving in Yongdu, they finally changed into new armor, got new weapons, and received enough salary. Finally, they no longer had to worry about three meals a day.

All 50,000 troops were assigned to the front army with Yuan Yiqiu as the general. Jin Shoude was the deputy general, and himself became the commander general of 10,000 troops in the front army.

The soldiers brought were much less than before, but Zhong Zhen was very happy. When the country was in trouble, every man was responsible. Now, they had to use their own blood to defend the dignity of this country.

The 50,000 border troops, compared with the other county troops convened by His Majesty, the combat power is naturally incomparable. Even though they have not had enough food or were not warm in recent years, their morale is still there. The Qin border troops are really a very easy-to-satisfie group. He looked around and the old-fashioned border troops were full of fighting spirit. This is why the 50,000 of them were able to immediately take on the important task of the vanguard army as soon as they came back. The troops who had seen blood and those who had fought hard battles were naturally extraordinary.

In fact, in Zhong Zhen’s heart, even those Thunder Army may not be able to fight more than those of his own border troops, especially his combat ability in adversity.

"Report!" A scout came to the horse as if flying. He got closer, turned over and dismounted, and knelt in front of Zhong Zhen on one knee, "Report to the general that the Qing enemy has been deployed. There is a 500-strong garrison in the Baoqing camp of the Ming army on Xiushui River Bridge."

"Five hundred people?" Zhong Zhen was stunned at first, then laughed silently. During this period, scouts from both sides exchanged and killed each other. The front-line camp had not figured out how many troops were stationed in the Xiushui River Bridge, so he led 10,000 heavy troops to attack. After all, if the bridge was captured, the army would have a shortcut through Xiushui River. I originally thought that the Ming army would have heavy troops stationed in such an important place, but now there are only 500 people.

This little man was not enough to squeeze the seams on him, and he would all be crushed with a light blow. He shook his head disapprovingly, which all showed that the army was brave and could not be defeated in a hundred battles, but it was probably an exaggeration. The opponent's generals did not seem to know the soldiers, and they did not mean to pay attention to Xiushui Bridge at all.

"Tell the cavalry to rush up and flood them." Zhong Zhen ordered. The hard battle I thought would not happen anymore, but it was just a victory with my hands. Today, I can cross the river and camp.

On the Xiushui River Bridge, Changyonggang's complexion changed slightly. The cavalry was different from the dense infantry team. As the saying goes, tens of thousands of cavalrymen cover the sky and the sun. The cavalry that was pulled far away was charged, even if only a thousand cavalry was left, it covered the range within his sight. The rumbling sound of thousands of cavalry stepped on the ground was like thunder, which made the Xiushui River Bridge tremble slightly.

Zhang Yu's face was as normal, without any change. "Mr. Chang, don't look at their aggressive momentum, but the more they get to us, their formation will rise and fall inward, because the space outside of us is so large. Once their formation becomes dense, hehe, there will be a good show."

With the sound of horse hooves, Zhang Yu almost shouted: "Mr. Chang, the other party didn't take us seriously. Just so we took the opportunity to bite them a piece of meat. Haha, I like it the most."

Looking at Zhang Yu's relaxed expression, Chang Yonggang couldn't help but relax, and at the same time he felt a little ashamed. Although his martial arts cultivation was high, he had never seen such a big scene. The little captain in front of him was much calmer than him.

The Qin cavalry running, from time to time, people stumbled onions and planted horses in the backwards. It is natural to say what the outcome of falling off the horses in such a charge is self-evident.

Seeing that the other party was caught without any warning, Chang Yonggang couldn't help but feel a little surprised.

"Sir, a little trick. We dug a little hole in the open ground in front and made a little disguise. If the infantry came up to attack, the effect would not be good, but if it was a cavalry, hey, just go down and step on the air, then it would be a good show. I was just doing it casually, and I didn't do much, and I didn't want to make any more gains. I felt comfortable!" Zhang Yu laughed happily: "So what if the enemy is twenty times I am, Mr. Chang, but I saw how my five hundred men and horses were surrounded by the enemy, making an iron pea that could not be chewed and cooked."

Zhang Yu was full of fighting spirit, and Chang Yonggang couldn't help but aroused his competitive spirit. He clapped his hands and laughed: "Okay, then I will be a soldier under the command of Captain Zhang, and I will be on call."

Zhang Yu said loudly: "I dare not bother Mr. Husband for small matters, but if the enemy has a master to move, it will depend on Mr. Husband. We can fight in groups, but it will not be a good fight alone."

With Zhang Yu's roar, several powerful crossbows immediately raised their ferocious heads from behind the wall.

"shoot!"

The two-meter-long all-metal crossbow arrow drifted through the air with a whimpering roar, crossed several barriers in front, and plunged into the cavalry charge lineup where the formation was gradually gathering.

The soldiers who were shooting did not look at the effect at all. A soldier immediately picked up a crossbow arrow from the ground and put it into the arrow groove. The other two soldiers, one left and one right, cooperated to turn the shaking handle. Looking at the two of them with their cheeks, they knew that the shaking handle was really heavy. Chang Yonggang only glanced and understood how if not, how could the powerful crossbow be shot out? He just saw that several powerful crossbows had two blood alleys in the dense charge lineup. The people who were hit by the crossbow arrow at the front were pierced through, and a soldier even had his upper body cut into two halves by a powerful impact force. The situation was not ordinary terrifying.

The Ming Dynasty's powerful crossbows changed the weakness of the slow firing speed of powerful crossbows in various countries. When the first crossbow arrow was shot out and before it completely fell to the ground, the powerful crossbow that had just hung down raised its head again, turned its fuselage, and launched it again with a crash. You may not say how much he can kill at a time, but the terrifying impression he caused had a great blow to people's hearts. Nothing can stop his thrust attack.

Zhong Zhen, who was watching the battle from a distance, frowned very tightly at this time. He didn't care about the opponent's crossbow arrow killing several of his soldiers at one time, but was surprised by the opponent's speed of fire. When did the powerful crossbow have such a fast firing speed? However, no matter how powerful the powerful crossbow is, it is still not enough to face the cavalry that is surging like a tide. When the cavalry rushed to the front, everything was over.
