Reborn in the Three Kingdoms Novel - Chapter 113
Chapter 113 A Battle on the Battlefield
The Dragon and Tiger Army’s name was resounding, but not all of them were formed from Combat Weapons. Adding on the fact that they had not received any professional training, the level at which they could perform in battle was limited. It was only reasonable for them to be surrounded by a large number of Montenegrin troops in their first battle.
The Dragon Tiger Army was surrounded, and there was no commander Zhao Yun’s command. There was actually a hint of self-confusion. Soon, more than three hundred people were chopped on horses and trampled to death.
When Zhao Yun returned with his gun, he saw the Dragon and Tiger Army that had already turned into a mess.
“Everyone, don’t be anxious. Listen to my orders and use the advantage of the horses to charge with me.” A spear stretched out and raised the throats of three Heishan Army. Zhao Yun let out a wild roar.
Zhao Yun’s appearance caused the Dragon Tiger Army to gradually stabilize from the chaos. After hearing the general’s words, they adjusted the direction of the horses.
When Zhao Yun returned, he was like an unstoppable dragon. Wherever he went, he was forcefully torn apart by a line of defense.
With each shot from Zhao Yun and the Dragon Tiger Army, at least several hundred Montenegrin soldiers were stabbed to the ground and turned into ghosts.
Behind the Montenegrin army, Great General Yu Du saw this scene and couldn’t help but be shocked in his heart, “Who is this person? He is actually so valiant?”
“This subordinate doesn’t know.” One of the generals lowered his head and replied.
“You don’t know? Even if you don’t know, why don’t you ask?” Yu Du was a little angry. After fighting for a long time, more than two thousand people had died. Unexpectedly, he didn’t even know who the enemy general was until now?
“Yes.” After the general agreed, he immediately went to investigate. Yu Du stood on the spot, admiring Zhao Yun’s bravery in his heart. At the same time, he was also wondering if he could pull this person into his tent. If that was the case, his status in Heishan Army would definitely be higher.
Zhao Yun’s bravery attracted Yu Du’s favor. Dian Wei and Xu Chu’s bravery really gave Li Damu and Yang Feng a headache.
According to the previous agreement, Yu Du was outside and controlled every path to and from Chaoge County. Li Damu and Yang Fengchong entered the city, killing and robbing treasures.
Yu Du fought first, and it was also very lively. This made Li Damu and Yang Feng feel relieved. They thought that Zhang Chao’s main force was outside the city, so they entered the city generously. Sure enough, they did not see any obstructions along the way. Although they would occasionally encounter some Chen Liucheng’s defensive troops, there were not many of them, and they were no match for them.
The journey progressed so smoothly that the two of them felt that today’s task was too easy. However, it was only after their final target, the county government, appeared in front of them that they realized that they had imagined things to be a little too simple.
Not to mention the others, just as they rushed to the front gate of the county government, the rain of arrows made them suffer a lot. The two hundred plus Heishan Army closest to the gate were all knocked down by a wave of arrows, and none of them survived.
“These are all archers.” Seeing that more than two hundred brothers had died in a flash, the leader, Yang Feng, opened his mouth in shock.
Speaking of Yang Feng, he was only a captain beside Zhang Yan. This time, he came to make a contribution by relying on his connections. In this way, when they were promoted in the future, it would be hard for others to say anything. Although this person had also fought, he was only bullying unarmed civilians. This was the first time he had fought against a regular army, so it was normal for him to have such a reaction.
On the contrary, Li Damu was someone who had fought many battles. Speaking of which, Li Big Eye was not his real name. In Montenegro, the marshals of the yellow scarf were not covered by a crown. They called the person riding the white horse Zhang Baiqi, Zhang Feiyan Zhang Feiyan Zhang Jie, Zhang Leigong Zhang Lei Gong Zhang Lei Gong, and Li Big Eye Li Da Mu.
Li Da’s eyes widened as he looked at Yang Feng with a contemptuous gaze. “Captain Yang, are you afraid of such a formation? The enemy has bows and arrows. Don’t tell me we don’t have any shields? Hmph! Learn. Someone, where are the shield hands? Go, break through the yamen!”
Li Big Eye shouted. Soon, hundreds of shield hands rushed forward. Each of them held a wooden shield that was half a zhang long and could protect their entire bodies. With an order, he rushed forward.
At the top of the county government, another wave of arrows landed, shooting under the shield. The lethality of the arrows was too small. Apart from occasionally hitting two unlucky shield hands, most of the people rushed to the gate of the county government. Then, they shouted loudly and crashed into the wooden double-open gate.
The door trembled violently when it was hit. Then, the door suddenly opened from the inside, causing shield hands to fall to the ground one after another. After that, Li Big Eye could vaguely see the two figures waving something. Not long after, the door closed again, and everything returned to its previous tranquility.
It was as if nothing had happened, causing Li Big Eye to ride on his horse and continuously rub his eyes. Only when his eyes turned red did he believe that no one would come out.
“What the hell?” Li Damu watched as the hundreds of human shield hands disappeared. The gate of the county government was like a giant beast that devoured human lives. He couldn’t help but feel his scalp go numb when he saw it.
“Send someone to take a look.” After a while, Yang Feng said. He was also shocked by that scene. Fortunately, he was younger and reacted faster.
“That’s right. Just send someone over to take a look. Come on, we’re going to five hundred people. I want to see if there really is a Dragon Tan Tiger’s den in that door.” Li Damu said in disbelief. After he finished speaking, another troop, holding a wooden shield, rushed towards the gate of the county government once again.
“Coming, someone’s coming again.” Through the gap in the wooden door of the county government, Dian Wei’s big eyes were looking out from here. Seeing another person rushing over, he hurriedly shouted at Xu Huang, who was wiping the blade of the broadsword with the clothes of a dead person.
“Alright, look at me this time. I will definitely chase back the two heads that sent you just now.” After agreeing, Xu Huang raised his broadsword and was ready to fight at any time.
At a time when life and death were at stake, when everyone’s hearts were set to their throats, the two of them actually killed more people here than anyone else. Evidently, Dian Wei had won the battle just now by two heads.
“Haha, Old Xu, cowhide is not bragging. If you have the ability, you can defeat me. It’s useless to just say it with your mouth.” As Dian Wei spoke, he pulled the bolt on the wooden door. Immediately, the gate of the county government opened again, and hundreds of soldiers wearing yellow scarves were rushed into the courtyard one by one.
The number of people this time is much higher than last time. A single round of arrows had killed nearly a hundred people, and now four hundred people had rushed into the courtyard.
Dian wei and xu chu, to two against four hundred. However, there was still not the slightest bit of fear on his face. The two halberds and the long saber greeted him with all their might.
One by one, the Yellow Scarf Army was chopped down under their feet. Many of them didn’t even know what had happened, but they were covered by the enormous black shadow coming towards them. Then, their bodies were cut in half by their arms, and they died.
The two of them were truly heroic. The 400-strong Yellow Scarf Army was actually killed in a short while, but none of those who rushed into the courtyard could vent their anger.
“Old Xu, how many did you kill?” Dian Wei leaned against the wooden door and gasped heavily.
“I can’t remember, how many did you kill?” Xu chu was also sitting on the ground, very shamelessly said. At this moment, he could feel that the long saber in his hand was much heavier than before.
“I don’t remember either. There are too many of them, but they should be no less than yours.” Dian Wei said cheekily. This attracted xu chu a white eyeball. However, that was all they had to say. The two of them were too tired to say anything else.
After hearing that Dian Wei and Xu Chu had killed hundreds of people in the backyard of the county government, Zhang Chao was also worried. “Retreat, arrange for the two of them to come down and rest first. Switch to five hundred soldiers to guard the inner door and tell the brothers not to be afraid. Just greet them with bows and arrows when you see them.”
It was worth mentioning that this time, the young general leading the Zhangjiajun was called Huang Xu, and he was also the only one not surnamed Zhang, but a general of the Zhangjiajun army.
When he first met Zhang Chao, Huang Xu was only ten years old. Now that he was almost sixteen years old, he was already a big boy. Not only was he tall and sturdy, but even the kung fu in his hands was not simple. He would often be criticized by his father Huang Zhong, uncle Zhao Yun, Taishi Ci, and the others.
This time, there was really no general. Huang Xu volunteered, and Zhang Chao agreed.
With five hundred zhang army, huang xu came to dian wei and xu chu two people’s land, will they change. After that, under Huang Xu’s instructions, the five hundred people split into fan-shaped sections and stood, aiming the bow and arrow in their hands at the county government gate.
This was also Zhang Chao’s plan. Using Dian Wei and Xu Chu to confuse Li Big Eye, to create an illusion that he didn’t have any soldiers to use for others, so that in sending the Zhangjiajun, perhaps it would have an unexpected effect.
Outside the door, after charging twice, Li Damu finally saw what was happening. While he secretly admired the two big fellows for their bravery, He turned around and said to the Yellow Scarf Army behind him, “Brothers, have you all seen that this personal general of the Imperial Court is no longer available? He has only sent two people to guard the inner sect. I believe he has arranged the main force outside the city. Why are you still hesitating? Follow me in, and you will be able to accomplish your mission today.”
After seeing that there were only two people guarding the entrance of the county government, Li Damu became arrogant and thought that Zhang Chao had no soldiers, so he shouted and rushed forward with thousands of brothers. He wanted to make a contribution.
Thousands of Yellow Scarf Army soldiers shouted and rushed forward with Big Eye Li. Yang Feng commanded the archers under his command to shoot towards the roof of the county government, suppressing the 500 elites of the Zhangjiajun army.
