    PS: Readers who like my works are welcome to add my W letter, the chief disciple of the Jian Sect (JZSXDZ).

    Following Liu Qing¡¯s order, Xiang Qing and Luo Chao, two generals of the Eastern Army, also took the lead in tearing up the Western Army¡¯s formation.

    Although it is still difficult to defend the Western soldiers who rely on mirror armor to become invisible at a distance of a hundred steps, those Western soldiers who have lost the protection of their mirror armor and are exposed to the air have become the Eastern Army soldiers to judge the enemy.  The best mark of location.

    More importantly, in this long and narrow canyon, the Eastern Army soldiers will not have to worry about whether they will be ambushed by the enemy on the left, right and behind. They just rush forward and lean the sword in their right hand against the saddle.  Inside the grooved lock on the front, relying on the sprinting power of the war horse, it effortlessly harvests the lives of the enemy.

    "Shoot the arrow! Shoot the arrow!"

    Seeing the menacing Western Army soldiers getting closer and closer to him, Xixiang Hou Han Cang did not care about the most stringent silence order in the Western Army's military discipline, nor did he care that his voice would arouse the Eastern Army soldiers.  The general paid attention and shouted in panic.

    It has to be said that as one of the four towns in Jijing, the strength and quality of the Western Army is by no means comparable to that of the Taiping Army. The moment Xixiang Hou Hanyu issued the order, the soldiers of the Western Army had already raised their hands.  The crossbow arrows were aimed at the two Eastern Army troops, Xiang Qing and Luo Chao, who were very close at hand.

    There is one thing Xixiang Hou Hancheng guessed right. When those "uncontrolled" hand crossbows "flyed" into the sky, even Xiang Qing and other Eastern Army generals had a strange look in their eyes.  If not for the previous wave of arrows from the Eastern Army, the mystery of the Western Army had been broken, and all the incredible secrets of the Western Army's ability to do so had been exposed.  I'm afraid even a fierce general like Xiang Qing would be scared to death after seeing this spectacle.

    But right now

    After peeling off that mysterious and incredible coat, the Western Army was in the eyes of the Eastern Army.  It's just an army composed of ordinary people.

    Ah, as long as the opponent is a living person, then the Eastern Army will never be afraid!  Even though they were suppressed by the veteran Yang Ling from the Northern Xinjiang side a while ago, they were so suppressed that they couldn't breathe.

    This is the Eastern Army, the leader of the four towns in the Great Zhou, Hebei and Beijing whose tenacity is no less than that of the Southern Army!

    "Be careful to avoid arrows!"

    Facing thousands or even tens of thousands of Western Army crossbows, Xiang Qing just told his soldiers to pay attention to avoid the arrows, but he didn't mean to avoid them at all. It's really unimaginable.  The Eastern Army soldiers will act calmly in the face of severe crises.

    "Shuashua¡ª¡ª"

    After Xiang Qing shouted.  The Eastern Army soldiers who were the vanguard took out a small buckler with their left hands from the backpacks of their war horses.

    As the name suggests, this small buckler is really very small, almost as big as two palms. It can't even cover half of the upper body when it is covered in front of the body. It is different from the Confederate Army's fine iron tower shield that is often more than seven or eight feet tall.  There's no comparison at all, both in terms of weight and sturdiness.

    After all, the small shield is just a small wooden shield mixed with bamboo and wood covered with a layer of cowhide, let alone Liang Qiuhao, Liang Qiuwu, Li Mao, Zhenleina and other great heroes.  Even Xie An can smash this small buckler with one punch.

    However, this kind of small buckler is more lightweight and compact. The Eastern Army soldiers will put them on their left arms, and then they will bend down slightly. At that angle, they are almost half lying on the horse's back.  They lay half-lying on their horses and used an incredible evasive action to reduce the area that would be hit by arrows as much as possible.

    As for the horses under their crotches, Xiang Qing and Luo Chao had just received instructions from Liu Qing, so.  This vanguard of the Eastern Army had already hung chain armor on the chests of their horses before going into battle.

    If the Southern Army is the army with the heaviest equipment, then the Eastern Army.  It is the special cavalry with the most extensive equipment. Because it is the most famous army of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and because it is the last line of defense of the Great Zhou Dynasty, the Eastern Army often trains for the most critical situations, which makes the Eastern Army  The army has a lot of additional equipment. In addition to spears, swords, and hand crossbows, there are actually many off-hand weapons such as daggers and bucklers hidden in the backpacks of the war horses. Some Eastern Army soldiers will even have daggers alone.  I would keep several of them just in case I lost my weapon.

    But then again, can a small leather buckler block the rain of arrows from the Western Army like swarms of locusts?

    This is of course impossible. Although the soldiers and generals of the Eastern Army have made the best response to the crossbow attacks of the Western Army, attrition cannot be avoided.  During that wave of arrows, one after another Eastern Army soldiers were hit by arrows and fell from their horses. Their lives and deaths were unknown. But even so, the rest of the soldiers were still charging. They didn't even have time to observe or pity Tongze who was hit by arrows and fell from their horses.  , as close as brothers.

    This is convenientOnce the Eastern Army launches a charge, their eyes will only be fixed on the front, staring at their target, and they will move forward until death!

    Finally, after paying a heavy price of hundreds of soldiers, Generals Xiang Qing and Luo Chao finally rushed in front of the Western Army.

    The faces of the soldiers of the Western Army were full of horror, because they knew very well that since the heavy rain of arrows could not drive back the Eastern Army, then the next step would be the massacre of their own side by the other side

    ¡°Bang! Click¡ª¡ª¡±

    In a strange sound like shattering glass, the war horse under Xiang Qing's crotch slammed into the body of a Western sergeant who "disappeared". However, he saw that the mirror armor on the Western sergeant was broken.  His whole body was hit by the charging force of the horse under Xiang Qing's crotch, and he flew into the air and fell to the ground with a loud bang.

    "Hush -" he whistled in a fuss, and the speed of the war horse under Xiang Qing's crotch did not slow down at all, and actually rushed forward forcefully. He only heard waves of strange sounds like shattering glass mixed with the sound of broken bones.  When the sound was heard, the soldiers of the Western Army screamed and wailed, and were severely trampled by the iron cavalry of the horses of the Eastern Army soldiers.

    Massacre!  Complete massacre!

    This is the tragedy of infantry versus cavalry. Once the crossbows cannot stop or even slow down the cavalry's charge, then the infantry will realize how fragile their bodies are in front of the sword in the hands of the opponent's cavalry.

    What¡¯s even worse is.  Just when some soldiers of the Western Army escaped the charge of Xiang Qing and Luo Chao with lingering fear, they followed.  Yan Kai, Chen Gang, Liao Li and even Liang Qiu Wu himself also led the cavalry to kill them.

    "Compared to before, that was the real crushing. The nature of the Western Army's arms determined that if he fought head-on with the Eastern Army and Jizhou soldiers on the frontal battlefield, he would have absolutely no chance of winning.

    [Lost, lost?  ]

    The Marquis of Xixiang, Han Cang, was dumbfounded as he watched the Western Army generals whom he had entrusted with important tasks, unable to resist the cavalry raids of the Eastern Army and Jizhou Army detachments. His mind was like a blur and he still couldn't turn around.

    [How could it be defeated?  How could it be possible to lose?  We used to suppress the Eastern Army with all our strength]

    Han Yu could not figure out why the secrets of his Western Army were exposed.  Because the previous reaction from the Eastern Army showed that the other party had no idea about the Western Army's tactic of suppressing the situation.

    It is no exaggeration to say that, let alone the Eastern Army, looking at the entire world, how many people know the details of the Western Army?

    After all, the four towns of Jijing were armies founded in the early days of the founding of the Zhou Dynasty. They did not belong to the military system and had the right to refuse to reveal the secrets of their own army to the outside world.  Furthermore, even if it was used once when attacking the Southern Tang Dynasty in the south of the Yangtze River, it did not expose the secrets of the Western Army that time.

    In the whole world, only the deceased late emperor Li Ji probably knew part of it. Even the current emperor Li Shou had no idea that the Western Army had such a trump card.

    That being the case.  How could it be exposed this time?

    The Marquis of Xixiang, Han Yu, was confused. The more he thought about it, the more difficult it became to explain. He could only attribute this incident to the luck of the Eastern Army. He shot a bunch of arrows for no reason, but they hit the ground crookedly and hit the Western Army.  Secrets exposed.

    How could Han Yu have imagined it?  His every move was fully expected by a seventeen-year-old woman from the south of the Yangtze River who might become the right military advisor of the Eastern Army in the future.

    He originally planned to drive the physically and mentally exhausted Eastern Army into this long and narrow death canyon.  Here he ended the Eastern Army's reputation as the world's most elite cavalry, but he didn't expect that this long and narrow death canyon would instead become the burial place of his Western Army.

    In that winding canyon that is more than ten miles long, no matter what the Western Army does, it is impossible to escape from the hands of the Eastern Army.

    [Lost]

    Otherwise, the Marquis of Xixiang, Han Yu, was also a very important character. Seeing that the situation was over and nothing could be done, he turned around and ran away without even caring about the soldiers and generals of the Western Army under his command who were being slaughtered by the Eastern Army.

    Although he also knew that even if the defeated Han family and his son fled to the command of King Li Mao of Yan to seek refuge, they would no longer be taken seriously by the latter. But on the other hand, if they accidentally fell into the hands of the Eastern Army, it would definitely be a disaster.  It's a matter of life and death.  With Liang Qiu Wu, a member of the Liangqiu family, loyal to the Zhou court, it is strange that he would treat father and son well, the traitors who helped the emperor to commit crimes. Ling Chi, beheaded in half, and broken into pieces. Although the laws of the Zhou Dynasty have gradually become more enlightened in recent years, they are still  How many tortures are left specifically to punish traitors who plot against the country?

    Thinking of this, the Marquis of Xixiang, Han Yu, who was quite concerned about his life, could not care about the life and death of the soldiers of the Western Army under his command, because in his opinion, even if their father and son fled to Jijing to seek asylum from Yan King Li Mao, they would have no hope of getting Li Mao's protection in the future.  It is better to be reused than to be tortured by the court as a treasonous criminal.??.

    But unfortunately, before he could escape a few steps, Leng Bufang swung a sword from the right side in front of him, knocking him several feet away.

    At that moment, Xixiang Hou Hanchen felt as if his chest had been hit hard by a huge hammer with a huge force. The whole chest was burning and painful. He even vaguely heard the sound of broken bones.  It came from his chest and ribs.

    [who is it?  ]

    After falling heavily to the ground, Xixiang Hou Hanyu could not get up no matter how hard he struggled. He could only raise his head as much as possible and look at the murderer who attacked him.

    ??In front of his eyes, he saw a general holding a seven-foot sword, sitting astride a red rabbit horse, majestically reining in his horse and standing a few feet in front of him. His whole body seemed to be covered with a layer of feathers that looked like flames.

    ¡°Yan¡­Tiger¡­Ji¡­¡±

    With his eyes suddenly widened, Xixiang Hou Hansheng struggled to utter three words from his mouth, then his head tilted and he fainted.

    He was probably in despair and could no longer maintain consciousness, because he knew that the other person was a great hero that he could never catch up to in his entire life. Although he also had some martial arts, it was not enough to see him in front of him.  Far from enough to see.

    "Huh? Dead?" He looked at Han Yu lying unconscious on the ground.  Liang Qiuwu frowned slightly and murmured in a low voice.  "I cut it with the back of the knife, and I only used five points of strength, so I wouldn't you guys, go and check his breathing!"

    ??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????¡­  Not just anyone can bear it

    "Yes!" A cavalryman from the Eastern Army was ordered to stand up and dismount, and came to the unconscious Xixiang Hou Hancheng. He stretched out his hand to look under his nose and then put his head on his chest and listened to his heartbeat for a while.  He stood up, turned towards Liang Qiuwu, clasped his fists and said, "Report to the general. This guy just passed out"

    "Fortunately" Liang Qiuwu nodded and ordered, "Come here, tie this man up with a rope and take him away!"

    "yes!"

    At this time, Liu Qing, protected by Cheng Yang, Ku Yang and other generals, slowly came here and saw this scene.  She was curious and asked, "Sister Xiaowu, won't you kill this person?"

    Unexpectedly, Liang Qiuwu was stunned when he heard this, and asked, "Why do you want to kill him?"

    Liu Qing felt dumbfounded.  After careful consideration, he said, "In the past few days. But this man is leading the Western Army, and I can't live in peace even if I wait for a moment. Furthermore, many of the soldiers of the Eastern Army died because of this man"

    "On the battlefield, sacrifice is inevitable" Liang Qiuwu looked at Liu Qing in confusion.

    Liu Qing sighed when she heard this. She was convinced that Liang Qiu Wu was slow for a while. After pondering for a while, she whispered, "What I mean is that since this person caused the sacrifice of many brave soldiers of our Eastern Army,  It would be better to kill this man, so that the soldiers of the Eastern Army will be disgusted. Furthermore, this will also be a way to commemorate the spirits of the sacrificed soldiers in heaven"

    To be fair, Liu Qing's words are well-founded. It is no exaggeration to say that if Xixiang Hou Han Yu had attacked not Liangqiu Wu's Eastern Army but the Jizhou Army led by Xie An, it would have been heartbreaking for his elite soldiers to have sacrificed their lives.  There was no way Xie An would allow Han Su to leave the battlefield alive.  Most likely it was just a single blow in the past, and in the future it will just be said that Han Yu died in the rebellion.

    However, luckily for Han Si, he met Liang Qiu Wu.

    "How can it be like this?" After hearing Liu Qing's words, Liang Qiuwu frowned and said seriously, "This son has obeyed Li Mao and is an accessory. Since our army has captured him, he will naturally be handed over to the imperial court. Please make your decision. Please  If the Ministry of Punishment is questioning him, how can it be justified for our army to kill him without permission?"

    Liu Qing opened her mouth and was speechless. Regarding Liang Qiu Wu's stubbornness and rigidity, she finally realized how Xie An felt at the beginning. When she looked at the Eastern Army soldiers and generals beside her, Liu Qing discovered that  They all seemed to be used to it, and they didn't have the slightest dissatisfaction or complaint because Liang Qiuwu didn't kill Han Yu to vent their anger on their behalf.

    ?????????????????? Several Eastern Army chiefs even winked at Liu Qing, telling her not to argue with their female general on this matter.

    Seeing this, Liu Qing smiled and said, "Sister, you are right, you still have toact according to the rules and laws!"

    "Hmm!" Liang Qiuwu nodded with a childish look on his face.

    As Liu Qing said before, the Western Army is as flashy as the raw materials of their mirror armor. When the layer of mystery on their bodies is peeled off, they are as fragile as glass. It takes almost only a moment to transform the Eastern Army.  The army ended the war. About eight thousand soldiers of the Western Army were killed, and the rest were killed.Unable to do anything, they surrendered one after another. Who told Xixiang Hou Hanyu to plan to escape alone?  Even the general is planning to escape, and the soldiers and generals under his command naturally no longer have the faith and will to fight for survival.

    "So happy! So happy!"

    Accompanied by several hearty laughs, Chen Gang, the fierce general of the Eastern Army, walked over with his head held up. Looking at the strong fighting spirit and the unconcealable smile on his face, it was obvious that he had been exposed to the famous Northern Xinjiang general Yang Ling a few days ago.  It can be said that Chen Gang completely vented his frustration and cowardice on the Western Army.

    At this time Yan Kai also came back, looked at Liu Qing and said sincerely, "If it weren't for Military Advisor Liu this time, our army would probably be in the hands of the Western Army"

    This sentence is true. Although the combat effectiveness of the Western Army is simply vulnerable to the Eastern Army, because of the set of mirror armor, if Liu Qing had not seen through it and pointed out the Eastern Army's soldiers, the Eastern Army would definitely have defeated the Western Army.  After all, the Western Army is indeed a rare and cunning army.

    "But what the general doesn't understand is, since the Western Army had such a trick, why did they fake defeat at the hands of our army the first time?" In other words, how did Liu Junshi see through the Western Army's deception?  I didn¡¯t even notice it¡­¡±

    Liu Qing smiled slightly when he heard this, and explained the doubts in Yan Kai and the surrounding soldiers' minds in a matter-of-fact manner.

    "General Yan also said it was a fake defeat. Since it was a fake defeat, it had a purpose. The purpose was to lure the Eastern Army onto a rugged and difficult road so that it would be difficult for the Eastern Army to use the speed of their horses to throw off the Western Army.  As for why you are not aware of the Western Army's deceptive methodsit is undeniable that this is indeed the brilliance of the Western Army. On the first day, I remember that many soldiers and generals of the Eastern Army were laughing at the silver-white thin coat of the Western Army.  Armor, because that thin layer of armor is almost invisible under the moonlight"

    "This" Yan Kai smiled sarcastically.

    Smiling slightly, Liu Qing said sternly, "Actually, the Western Army's armor is not perfect, but we didn't notice it before. Why? Because we were too focused on the Western Army's armor.  A piece of silver-white armor How could I have imagined that under the conspicuous silver-white armor of the Western Army, there was actually a set of dark black mirror armor Because of the first battle, that silver-white armor left a deep impression on us.  Because of the relationship, I subconsciously thought that the Western Army wore silver-white armor. Therefore, when the Western Army seemed to disappear, in fact, they just took off the silver-white armor on their bodies, and even  It is possible that they were standing still in front of us, and we could have noticed something strange, but because our minds were filled with that silver-white armor, even if those Western troops were hiding not far away,  We opened our eyes wide but turned a blind eye This is a psychological misunderstanding, and it is also the brilliance of the Western Army's deception!"

    "Oh¡ª¡ª" All nearby soldiers, including Liangqiu Wu, suddenly realized that they looked up to Liu Qing even more, which made Liu Qing blush slightly. After all, most of the things she said were in Jiangnan.  Shi Xie An had nothing to do to tell her common sense. Otherwise, how could Liu Qing be able to blurt out things like light refraction that even Changsun Xiangyu didn't know before?

    "Sister, what should I do now?" In order to cover up her guilt, Liu Qing immediately changed the subject.

    Liang Qiuwu was stunned when he heard this, and then a somewhat complicated look gradually appeared in his eyes. He took a few steps forward and looked up at the bright starry sky.

    Everyone around them felt like a mirror, the Western Army was the only obstacle to the famous northern Xinjiang general Yang Ling staying in Boling to stop their Eastern Army from returning to aid Jijing. Now that the Western Army had been defeated, it was natural that their next opponent would be  It is the overlord of Northern Xinjiang who currently occupies the royal capital of Jijing, King Yan Li Mao.

    The comrades who worked together to drive away the invasion of the Northern Rong cavalry eleven years ago have now become a situation where the two armies have to confront each other. Even the soldiers and generals of the Eastern Army were filled with emotion, not to mention Liang Qiu Wu. After all, King Li Mao of Yan was  It would be no exaggeration to say that Liang Qiu Wu's martial arts apprentice grew up at a young age.

    I don¡¯t know how long it took, but Liang Qiuwu let out a long breath.

    "Although Li Mao is a member of the royal family, he has learned martial arts from my Liangqiu family since he was a child. Now he has caused trouble. As the twelfth generation head of our Liangqiu family, I have the obligation and responsibility to clean up the family!"  Here, she turned around suddenly, her shirt flying.

    "Let's go, the whole army sets offto Jijing!"

    "Whoa whoa¡ª¡ª"
