Chapter 170 Engagement {Part 2}
In the Qingzhou Army's formation.
Liu Yu had already heard the loud sound of war drums erupting in the Hulu infantry, and the crazy shouts of many soldiers. He knew that this was the Hulu who wanted to launch a fast attack, trying to use crazy fighting to cover up the fear caused by the bombardment just now.
Seeing all this, Liu Yu couldn't help but feel a little angry. Have these "Hu Xiejun" been motivated? After being bombarded by artillery, they can still charge?
"The war begins! Get ready to kill the enemy!"
With Liu Yu's order, more than a dozen war drums and numerous horns in the Qingzhou army also sounded even louder.
The powerful drums and whistles were like hot flames, burning the fighting spirit of all the soldiers of the Qingzhou Army.
"Mountain!"
"Mountain!"
Flashes of continuous slogans rang on the Qingzhou Army's positions, which were the calls for the Qingzhou Army to act as a defensive formation.
"Invasion is like fire, and not moving like a mountain."
Ran Liang, a young man who had been following Liu Yue, suddenly muttered.
Liu Yu did not expect that Ran Liang knew about this sentence in "The Art of War" at such a young age. If it was normal, Liu Yu would have had a good conversation with him, but now is not the time.
However, just as the Qingzhou army was ready to welcome the charge of the Hulu infantry in the blink of an eye, the Hulu infantry on the opposite side did not launch a comprehensive charge as Shi Le hoped.
Although there were cruel military orders and drums and the Hu people supervising the war team, many Hu barbarian infantry had just seen the bloody and terrifying scene of artillery piercing through the queue. They had already regarded the Qingzhou army in front of them as gods and ghosts. They had just run forward for a short distance and began to refuse to charge forward, but ran to both sides, trying to avoid the front of the Qingzhou army.
The already scattered barbarian infantry, under the impact of these chaotic fleeing infantry, fell into chaos without running far. These already low morale assistants immediately stopped their offensive to continue moving forward.
If it weren't for the Hu Jia cavalry on both sides and in the rear, these Hu Jia infantry that had begun to fall into chaos would have long dispersed.
"You damn Jin slaves, don't stop, keep rushing for me!"
"Don't stop, keep rushing forward!"
The Hu people's supervision team, who were following closely behind these infantry troops, saw that many of these soldiers began to stop charging and tried to avoid escape, and all raised the knife in their hands high, loudly scolding and intimidating the infantry that did not dare to continue moving forward.
After shouting a few times, these Hushang teams found that almost no one obeyed. All of them rushed into the stagnant infantry army with swords and sword hilts. While beating and driving the infantry with the hilt of the sword on the back and forth, they began to kill the infantry soldiers who were rushing around in the queue to try to escape and avoid.
Shi Le's original desperate impact turned into a so-called chaos at the beginning.
At this time, the Qingzhou army was in the army.
Liu Yu had noticed the chaos in the opposite Hulu infantry. Except for the very few infantry that rushed in front, most of the Hulu infantry fell into a stagnant state.
Although Liu Yu could not see the Hu men's supervision team behind the Hu infantry army, it was obvious that the charges of these "Hu Army" had completely gone bankrupt. If the team was in chaos on the battlefield, it would often have disastrous consequences.
Suddenly, a boy's voice came.
"General, the bandit army is already in chaos and is attacking quickly!"
This anxious voice was exactly what Ran Liang said.
Liu Yu looked at Ran Liang and saw a bloodthirsty excitement on his face. Such a crazy expression appeared on the face of a boy, which really surprised Liu Yu.
He knew that Ran Liang's words made sense, but Liu Zhi had only 500 cavalry under his command, and the rest were infantry. The Hulu infantry was basically fifty or sixty steps away from him. Although this distance was not very far, if the Qingzhou infantry advanced rapidly, it would inevitably cause chaos in the formation, and it was very likely that the flaws could be found for thousands of Hulu cavalry.
But I knew that just between Liu Yusizhuo, a red figure flashed out from his side.
Ran Liang, who was only twelve years old, held a golden horse spear and rode his red horse, shouting loudly and rushed out of the gap in the Qingzhou infantry array.
In front of him were some thief soldiers who ran too fast when charging and separated from the barbarian infantry behind. These people had just discovered the chaos behind him and were at a loss.
Ran Liang rode a speeding war horse and erected his horse's lance, like a tiger rushing into a deer. In the blink of an eye, he killed these scattered barbarian infantry and flew everywhere.
Under the eyes of thousands of Qingzhou infantry, the twelve-year-old Ran Liang was like a god of war coming to the world, galloping in front of the two armies to kill the barbarian infantry that broke out of the array.
All the Qingzhou infantry were shouting excitedly by the crazy scene in front of them, and cheers resounded throughout the array. At this moment, everyone saw the joy of killing from a boy.
The blood like a beast boiled!
"This child is brave and healthy!"
Liu Yu, who watched the game from afar, was also shocked by Ran Liang's crazy bravery.
"General, the morale of the army is available. I am willing to defeat the thief for the vanguard!"
"Sir, morale is like a rainbow, and the thief is at this moment!"
"General, don't wait any longer, attack!"
In an instant, Li Feng, Zhao Kun, Liu Xun and Wu Xin around them all asked for the fight.
At this time, seeing his son Ran Liang killing the enemy alone in front of the formation, Ran Long had already led three charity troops to rush out.
The soldiers in the entire Qingzhou army array were still shouting loudly.
Liu Yu knew that this was the so-called morale of the army and opportunity should not be missed.
"Come on, send the order quickly, and the two wings become oblique formations and attack!"
"Beat the drum!"
As the rapid attack drum sounded, the entire Qingzhou army's array began to become an offensive formation.
Soon, after the long conch roars rang, Qingzhou, which had completed its formation, began to move forward with great strides.
Rows of sharp spearheads and spears flashed with cold light, and they jumped up and down slightly with their progress, approaching towards the Hulu infantry like the teeth of a wolf.
The hard ground also made dull sounds as the Qingzhou infantry advanced, which made everyone's hearts excited.
When Liu Yu saw that the Qingzhou army who manipulated those artillery still had not completed the final loading. Even if it was completed, it would be difficult for these heavy artillery vehicles to catch up with the advance infantry.
"General, the cavalry is on standby."
Wu Xin ran to Liu Yu with a serious expression and said.
"Castballs are cowards, and swords are heroes! Today, let all swords drink blood!"
After saying that, Liu Yu took out his horse spear and led 500 Qingzhou cavalry to follow closely behind the infantry, ready to face the impact of the Hulu cavalry on the flanks at any time.
Chapter completed!
