Chapter 9 Ping Yingbu


The 50,000 Jiujiang Army held the opponent tightly.

Soon, the forward scouts discovered the opponent's main force, and the opponent's main force also began to turn around and escape.

Obviously the other side knew that its own force was several times theirs, so they took measures to avoid fighting.

Yingbu thought so.

"Send me the king's order to speed up the pursuit."

Yingbu ordered.

However, Yingbu didn't notice that the two water branches on both sides of the army were getting tighter and tighter unknowingly.

At first, the two river branches were very far apart, four or five miles apart.

If you stood next to one, you couldn't see the other.

Now, they are only a mile wide.

Fifty thousand troops advanced in battle formation along this mile-wide corridor.

The journey is three miles long.

"The king has an order, hurry up and catch up."

The scouts riding on their horses conveyed the order one by one to all parts of the three-mile-long team.

In the distance, trumpets were blaring and drums were beating.

The main force of the Chu army stopped running and began to form formations.

Four thousand spearmen lined up in eight rows, blocking the passage between the two water branches.

At the rear, a thousand crossbowmen were ready to fire, and there were 500 heavy infantry with shields and swords in reserve.

When the forwards of the two armies were less than a hundred meters apart, Yingbu, who was in the center, noticed something was wrong from the opponent's strict military appearance, sophisticated armor, and strange weapons.

But if you order to retreat at this time, a single impact from the other party can cause your own collapse, which will be catastrophic.

Now Yingbu could only comfort himself with the reason that he had so many people.

As the horn command sounded, the Chu army's five-meter spears fell chaotically like a dense forest.

The first five rows were flat, while the last three rows were still flying in the air.

When the two armies are about to join forces.

On the other side of the two river branches, two troops quickly ran out from the rear of the Chu army and distributed towards the banks of the river branches.

These two teams are composed of heavy infantry, warriors, and crossbowmen.

Ying Bu's face turned ashen, and he already understood that this was a trap set by the other party.

But it's too late Although the Chu army's spearmen experienced military formation training for a very short period of time, it was only superficial.

However, the most basic and simple operations such as stabbing, marching slowly in unison, soldiers in front falling down, and immediately replenishing their positions in the rear can still be done.

"Puff, chi, chi, click, click."

The spear blades began to penetrate the skin, flesh and bones of the Jiujiang soldiers.

The average soldiers of the Jiujiang Army wore very little armor.

Those who wore armor were just vests made of armor plates, which only protected the front and rear vests.

They had no ability to resist the Chu army's sharp spear blades.

The shield holder can't defend against the opponent's intensive stabs.

There are five spearheads per meter of space, and there are three backup ones.

How to defend against it.

What's even more frightening is that the opponent's crossbowmen are walking through the gaps between the columns, constantly firing powerful arrows at this side.

Occasionally, some people who were lucky enough to pass through the forest of spears because the Chu army's spearmen were not yet proficient ended up falling to the opponent's arrows or javelins.

The javelin was thrown by the heavy infantry.

They inserted the dagger into a slot of the large shield, freed one hand to take off the one-meter-long javelin from behind, rushed to the front of the formation, and threw it fiercely forward. go.

Blood, minced meat, brains and miscellaneous human tissues were splashed everywhere in the Jiujiang Army array.

The soldiers fell layer by layer like peeling onions.

Some cavalrymen in the array tried to charge, but the people in front had been routed backwards, and they were suppressed one layer at a time, unable to charge forward at all.

The Chu army on both sides of the river branch had already used powerful crossbows and javelins to attack the Jiujiang army from both wings.

Yingbu shouted loudly among the crowded soldiers: "Pass my king's order, swim across the river branch, and let the troops spread out."

A powerful arrow roared out, passed in front of his nose, and shot through the chest of a scout beside him. chest.

Blood splattered on his face.

"The king has an order to swim across the river branch" "The king has an order to swim across the river branch" The ordering soldiers tried their best to pass on the order.

In fact, without this order, the soldiers jumped into the river branch and waded across to the other side.

When a soldier waded into the middle of a river branch, the water had already reached his chest.

He slowly moved forward with great effort, and then a javelin flew over and pierced his head back and forth.

Immediately he kicked his feet and leaned back, his feet floated, but his head sank, and bright red masses rose from the bottom of the water.

Some soldiers of the Jiujiang Army successfully crossed the river branch, but just as they were about to climb ashore, a sword from a sharp soldier pierced his throat, or a powerful crossbow fired an arrow at his head, or He was directly pierced through the head with a javelin by the heavy infantry.

At this time, the heavy infantrymen had already put their daggers into their large shields and directly used their javelins as short-term combat weapons.

The defeated Jiujiang soldiers on the bank could only continue to flee backwards.

The Chu army on both sides of the bank and the Chu army's spear phalanx between the two branches continued to pursue them.

The Jiujiang army's casualties continued to occur.

There were also a very small number of Jiujiang soldiers in the Jiang branch who had been missed by the front army, but they did not escape the shooting of the crossbowmen behind the gun array.

The Jiujiang soldiers soon became desperate.

Because they discovered a large group of enemy cavalry A general riding a black horse led thousands of cavalry galloping on both sides of the bank.

The weapon in his hand was the halberd named "Overlord's Spear" held by the Overlord.

That's not Overlord Xiang Yu, who else could it be?

The elite cavalry of the Chu army galloped along the river branch to the far rear of the Jiujiang Army, crossed the river branch, turned around, gathered together, and charged towards the Jiujiang Army like a torrent.

Before the Chu army's cavalry could enter the battle, the remaining Jiujiang soldiers jumped into the river branches to escape.

The overlord's big halberd, the Chu cavalry's ring-headed swords and thousands of iron hooves knocked down those Jiujiang soldiers who were slow to react or far away from the river branch in droves.

Overlord Xiang Yu stared at the Jiujiang Army's banner and Yingbu under the banner, and Pegasus rushed over.

At this time, Yingbu was as if he was immobilized by a body-fixing technique, stunned and unable to move.

The Overlord's halberd was swung out, and the blade suddenly stood up.

Yingbu, who was about to die under the halberd, was knocked off his horse.

Then he stabbed it with a big halberd and knocked down the Jiujiang Army's banner.

"Those who surrender will not be killed," Overlord roared.

"Those who surrender will not be killed."

"Those who surrender will not be killed."

The knights of the Chu army followed him and shouted, and then the Chu army on both sides of the strait and the Chu army in the spear phalanx also started shouting.

The sound echoed through the sky.

The Jiujiang soldiers on the bank knelt down one after another, and the Jiujiang soldiers in the river branches also raised their hands.

The tied-up Yingbu was pushed down in front of Xiang Yu.

"Why betray me?"

Xiang Yu asked.

"The King of Han promised me a lot of fiefdom."

Yingbu answered after holding back for a long time.

"Silly x, that country gangster will eventually kill you, and everyone who joins him will have a bad end.

He just takes advantage of your greedy nature.

Gu is stingy in making promises to others, that's because Gu Yiyi promises a lot of money, unlike that country gangster The promise is just bullshit.”

Yingbu remained silent.

"What else do you have to say?"

"Give me a good time."

"Okay."

With the shadow of a halberd, Yingbu's head fell to the ground
