Harue Kagetsu

Chapter 45:

Li Mu, the governor, led the battalion to cross the river beach overnight, destroying the flint and stone bow and crossbow array of Yuan Jun on the west bank of Fushui, and took the initiative to launch an attack on the enemy's formation.

This is a huge hurdle, and it is about the outcome of the battle. Therefore, the Governor personally went into battle to test the fire.

The news spread, the whole battalion shook, and the soldiers responded enthusiastically with the might of the previous battle.

Li Mu personally selected a thousand men who dared to die from the four battalions. All of them were good at shooting and brave. All of them wore face masks, thick armor, large shields on their backs, five stone crossbows in their hands, spears in their hands, or ghost heads. A broadsword, and 50 heavy arrows with three-edged iron heads with huge lethality tied to the legs.

When they came down, they could wear less than a hundred pounds. Ordinary people were afraid that they would be crushed and unable to move, but they all held their heads high, lined up on the bank of the river, waiting for Li Mu to issue an order.

The armies were already in their respective positions, hiding in the darkness, waiting for them to break through the flint and crossbow formation on the other side, and then they would all launch an attack.

The firelight shone on the Jia Ye, dazzling, and the red tassels on the top of the hood, in the night, were like clusters of bright red flames that could not be extinguished.

Li Mu, in the same attire as the soldiers, stood majestically in front of the queue, his whole body was chilled, the bronze face covering his head and face in front of his forehead was full of grimace, looking at it in the night, it made people shudder.

His two sharp eyes turned to the warriors in front of him, and he said sharply: "I know that all of you were brave in the past, otherwise, it would never be possible to stand in front of me at this moment! But I tell you, on the battlefield, personal bravery is insignificant. , Only formation, only obeying orders, and only fighting together are the only way to defeat the enemy, and it is the only way to save life! Now, in the name of the governor, I have ordered you to obey my orders and break the formation with me, can you understand? "

"Clear!"

Thousands of people responded in unison. Immediately, someone stepped forward and brought the spirits.

Li Muyi filled his pocket with spirits, led the soldiers on the opposite side, and drank them all in one go. Then he put the pocket on his back, pulled it down, and said, "Come with me." The soldiers behind him who dared to die marched in unison. Under the cover of the night, he walked quickly towards the beach.

A hundred feet away, the opposite shoal that can be seen from afar in the daytime is where the vanguard of Yuan Jie's position is.

At this moment, everything on the other side was engulfed in the night, and it looked peaceful.

Even when the water is dry in winter, the depths of the river are no more than human thighs.

The armor pierced the water.

Thousands of soldiers who dared to die, drowning in the icy river water, set off towards the opposite side. The thick armor and leaves on their bodies collided with each other as they marched, and the sound of neat footsteps made by breaking the water broke the silence of the night.

On the shoal on the other side, in the darkness, there were already a pair of eyes, staring closely at the Great Yu soldiers wading in the distance on the opposite side.

Those eyes, like beasts peeping at their prey in the dark, flashed with a cruel light that could not hide their excitement.

He was the one who trained the flint and stone crossbow for Yuan Jie, which frightened the enemy. Sun Liqian, the Jie man of the Arrow Array.

After several small battles, the people of Yu country wanted to seize the river beach in the dark and seize the opportunity.

The opponent's defense is extremely tight, he can't find the slightest loophole, and he can't know the specific number of this pioneer who dared to die.

But it doesn't matter.

Under the attack of the intensive firepower he laid, no matter how many people came from the other party at the moment, the only result waiting for them was death.

In his heart, he was accurately estimating the distance of the people from the Yu country who were still invisible.

Five hundred steps, four hundred steps, three hundred steps…

Beside him were three thousand slingers and bows that were waiting in full force. The crossbowman has gradually lost his temper.

He remained motionless, as steady as a rock, until he felt that the people of the Yu Kingdom entered the flint and bow. The best attack distance of the crossbow, and then suddenly gave the order: "Send!"

The command was passed on.

A thousand catapults, almost at the same time, ejected huge boulders covered in flaming fire, like shooting stars in the sky, shooting at the opposite river beach one after another.

The archer shoots arrows with a crossbow. The arrows weave a dense web that devours all enemies under it.

In the blink of an eye, the calm under the night in Fushui was shattered.

The flint, carrying the scalding hot wind, slammed into the water, causing a wave of white water to rise. The sharp black arrow flashed with cold light, like a rainstorm, rushing down, and entering without water in an instant.

In the middle, he plunged into the water on the spot.

"Array!"

Li Mu stopped walking and shouted sharply.

His voice was passed on, and everyone quickly gathered into a formation, forming a triangular formation, with their arms lifting heavy shields, and in an instant, a shield seemed to be erected above their heads.

Under the cover of the shield, the flesh and blood, with flint and arrows, continued to move forward.

The enemy's attack became more and more frantic. The roaring firelight of the flint almost turned half of the sky red, and the air was filled with the strange smell of pungent kerosene mixed with charred flesh.

The surface of the water gradually evaporated into a dense white gas, and there were corpses floating on it.

A soldier was still struggling on the water, when suddenly, a boulder crashed down again, hitting his uncovered body. With a man and a stone, he quickly submerged in the water.

When he floated up again, he was motionless, and half of his body was charred black.

When a person falls, the vacant position will be quickly filled by the people behind.

Ruthless, but firm.

Every step forward becomes extremely difficult.

But it keeps moving forward and never stops.

With the red light reflected in the sky from the flint, the figure of Yu Ren gradually appeared in Sun Ligan's line of sight.

It was densely packed with crows and crows. I couldn't see how many people there were. I only saw that they were slowly approaching the position with the devouring fire and arrows.

Under such an intensive attack, the opponent was able to maintain a tight formation without any confusion.

Such a scene, slinger and bow. Crossbowmen, never seen before.

Looking at the enemy who appeared like a ghost, their eyes couldn't help showing the color of surprise.

Sun Ligan's eyes were red, and he ordered a more violent attack.

Li Mu led the soldiers behind him, and under the suppression of the flint and stone arrows in the sky, they moved forward step by step, and finally pushed the distance between the two sides to within a hundred paces.

Within this distance, he could have ordered the soldiers to change formations and counterattack with a dense series of heavy arrows to curb the almost crazy attack on the opposite side.

But this is not the result he wants.

What he wanted was to destroy the enemy's positions in one fell swoop, and for the elite soldiers of Guangling who were lined up behind him, to fight out a way to win.

at all costs.

"Jingchen, the firepower is too great. If this goes on, even if we get to the front of the battle, I'm afraid there will be few of us left! What should we do?"

Sun Fangzhi next to him, half of his beard was scorched by the fire, and a flowing arrow was hit in his shoulder.

Xu Zhi was too nervous, and what he called was the usual name for Li Mu when he was in Jingkou.

Li Mu's two eyes pierced through the eyes of the grim face, staring at the shoal in front of him.

Under the cold pair of eyes, a dark red Hokage jumped, but there was no emotion at all.

At this moment, he has no emotions, let alone any emotion. He is a trader who will do whatever it takes.

He stopped, turned around suddenly, and shouted: "Life and death are destiny, wealth is in the sky! If you win today, everyone will reward you! If you die here, Duke Gao will also be generous to your family! Listen to my order, Move forward with all your strength at the fastest speed, bully within fifty steps, and counterattack with all your strength!"

He gave an order, threw the heavy shield in his hand, faced a bow and crossbow whistling from the opposite side, drew his knife sharply, and swept his arms.

The arrow was shot, broke in the middle, ejected, and fell into the water.

His vigorous and agile figure hurried forward.

The soldiers behind him were startled.

"Brothers, follow the Governor and rush!"

Sun Fangzhi reacted quickly, shouted loudly, and threw away his shield.

This was not enough, he even took off the iron armor, revealing the horned muscles all over his body, drew his knife and followed Li Mu, while avoiding the flint and sharp arrows, he moved forward quickly.

The soldiers reacted quickly from shock.

With the dense flints and arrow crossbows, they finally made it here with difficulty, and all the remaining people had already dripped blood in their eyes, forgetting their lives and death.

The only thought left in his mind was to follow the governor to attack the front. Seeing this, they all threw away their heavy shields, roared amidst the splashes, drew a knife and followed closely, rushing forward.

The two sides were less than a hundred steps away.

Sun Ligan and the three thousand soldiers could see this variable clearly.

They couldn't hear what the Yuren said, only saw a crowd of people who suddenly threw away their heavy shields and rushed towards them as if they were dying.

The jumping black figure, like a ghost in the night, is extremely strange.

But in the blink of an eye, the distance was reduced to seventy steps.

The soldier was stunned, unable to react for a while, and stopped attacking.

"Shoot rocks! Shoot arrows!"

Sun Ligan shouted loudly, his voice almost broken.

The soldiers acted on orders again.

Flint and dense arrows pounce again.

There is a shoal below. Li Mu took the soldiers behind him and moved forward.

Some people died, but more people continued to move forward, shortening the distance step by step, until they were within fifty steps.

Flint lost its attack power. After shooting out, they all fell behind, splashing a fire, igniting the nearby woods.

In the sky-high flames, both sides could already see the enemy's face.

The soldiers of Yuan Jun looked at the grim faces on the opposite side, who didn't know how many people there were, and couldn't believe that the formation of flint and arrows, which had never been defeated, was broken by the other side in such a way.

These people from Yu country, are they human or ghost?

Amid Sun Li's hoarse roar, they still kept the arrows in their hands.

However, the whole person was dominated by the fear in his heart, and his hands gradually became disobedient.

The original five-stone strong crossbow, the arrows shot, are unable to penetrate the iron armor of the people in the opposite Yu country!

He watched the people of Yu country, with arrows on their bodies, bleeding, but they didn't fall down, and they bullied them step by step.

The strength could not be controlled and became weaker.

A riot had already started at the front of the position.

Sun Li's eyes were about to split, and he drew his sword and chopped off the head of a cowering soldier nearby.

At the sound of his roar, the soldiers barely regained their composure, assembled again, and fired arrows with all their strength.

The arrows rained endlessly, screeching and rushing towards him.

When Li Mu was running, he suddenly felt a numbness on his side, and he didn't bow his head. He grabbed the sharp arrow that had penetrated his armor in one hand and pulled it out suddenly. The arrow was caught, and the first arrow of the night was sent towards the Jieren who was slashing his sword and commanding the soldiers to attack.

The arrow pierced through the air, making a piercing whine.

Sun Ligan didn't see it clearly, but he felt that his eyes were dark, as if something was rushing towards him.

He opened his eyes subconsciously and finally saw it.

It was an iron arrow with a familiar sense of engraving, spinning at high speed in the air. The triangular cluster of arrows seemed to pass through a hollow skin, pierced through the center of his eyebrows, and came out through his skull.

The powerful force, with the blood splashing everywhere, drove the iron arrow full of red and white brains to continue forward, and nailed it deeply into the throat of a soldier behind him, nailing the two to him. Together, this stops.

Sun Ligan's eyes widened, his body turned backward, and he fell straight down.

The soldier next to him was stunned again.

"Continue to shoot arrows, those who don't obey will die-"

Sun Ligan's lieutenant came back to his senses and roared loudly, the roar did not stop, and with a dull "poof", he fell to the ground.

Another sharp arrow pierced his throat, and blood gushed out along the corner of his mouth.

The third lieutenant did not dare to move, and froze there. Together with the soldiers, he turned his head and looked forward.

In the raging fire, in the distance, a man in armor stood with a bow.

The firelight illuminated the blood-stained bronze grimace on his face. No one could see the two eyes he had in front of him.

But everyone's heart is cold.

He is looking at himself.

The murderous aura instantly penetrated the bones.

"shoot!"

A cold and ruthless instruction was sent out from the man's grimace.

The soldiers who were lined up behind him quickly raised their bows and crossbows.

In an instant, countless iron arrows flew in front of them like a torrential rain, accompanied by a mournful whine.

The will of Yuan Jie's soldiers was completely destroyed by this man and the array of arrows behind him at this moment.

No one will take care of the field.

Three thousand soldiers, like seeing evil spirits. Accompanied by the screams of those who fell to the ground, they all turned around and fled. You push me, I step on you, it's a mess.

Many soldiers died not from random arrows, but from their own trampling.

At this time, it was dawn in the east, and the morning light was faint.

In the east of Fushui, Fan Dun, who had been waiting for midnight, gave an order and led the three thousand Guangling elite soldiers and the group of enthusiastic Pakistani people behind them. Amid the sky-high shouts, they quickly crossed the river beach, stepping on their feet and stacking them together. The corpse, following the figure of Li Muheng's horse in front, rushed into the Yuan Jun camp.

When Gao Yin finally got rid of the fetters, temporarily changed his decision, and led his troops to Liangzhou, he got a message when he wanted to besiege Wei and save Zhao.

East of Ba County and west of Yuancheng, Li Mu fought Yuanjie's main force in Fushui and won. Afterwards, he attacked Ba County in one go, and Yuan Jie fled back to Liangzhou, but he was double-teamed and had nowhere to go, so he committed suicide.

When the general fought, the whole world was shocked. The name of Li Mu's God of War has spread like wildfire since then.
