Chapter 135 Defeat like a mountain
Zhou Shisan never thought that he could live such a life.
He used to live as humble as a maggot, never having enough to eat, and anyone could trample on his dignity.
But now, he knows that the original 'human' is like this.
Life in the camp was simple.
Even unbelievably simple.
It's always drill, drill, drill.
Occasionally, the teacher will teach everyone to recognize some characters during the break.
For these square characters, Zhou Shisan will always have a kind of awe, as if this is the most sacred thing in the world.
As for the drill, it doesn't seem to be hard at all.
Because compared to being hungry and cold in the past, compared to being bullied and being bullied by others in the past, here...he is with the battalion officer and people like him around him, but he feels an unprecedented ease .
So no matter whether he practiced, whether it was severe cold or under the scorching sun, even if he was sweating profusely, he never complained of suffering.
Sometimes it is even required to stand for a long time, and no movement is allowed. Even if a wasp flies over, stings his body and moves his body a little, Zhou Shisan feels ashamed.
Here, there are countless rules, but they are quick, but people get used to them.
Of course, the biggest effect of training is that he eats a lot.
He even felt that after leaving this big camp, there was no place in the world that could support him.
He eats a lot and has a big appetite. He eats a pound of rice, three ounces of meat, and other fruits and vegetables a day. He even supplies a hard-boiled egg every day.
And these, through practice, were quickly transformed into energy in the body.
He felt that his strength had increased, and he felt that he had boundless energy all over his body.
Naturally... Here, what needs to be kept in mind forever is the military order like a mountain.
Once a military order arrives, it must be executed without hesitation.
The consequences of violating military orders are not whipping and humiliation.
Just dismiss the leather directly and drive them out of the camp.
Zhou Shisan is the same as everyone else, they are not even afraid of whipping and humiliation, after all, in this life, they have suffered countless white eyes and suffered countless grievances.
The only thing they feared was being driven out of the camp.
A fellow villager was directly expelled for disobeying military orders.
He saw the man howling with his own eyes, tearing his heart, and seeing him burst into tears. Zhou Shisan will always remember this scene, because it means that the taste of being a human being, the kind that can be upright, can hold his head high, It can make relatives proud of it, and even make oneself belong, to live a life full of food and clothing, and to be insulated from that person ever since.
People who walk out of this camp are nothing, but stay here... like a person.
Just like the message sent by his father: "Son, follow Cheng Enboqian well, if he treats us like this, if he doesn't entrust his life to him, he will be punished by God."
For the sake of my father, for my sister, even for myself, Zhou Shisan never had any thoughts.
He wants to die here if possible.
At this time, Zhou Shisan was wearing a 27-jin chain armor.
An ordinary person cannot support this armor.
From the heart guard to the shoulder pads, then to the iron helmet, to the knee pads, layers of iron sheets protected Zhou Shisan until only his eyes remained.
When Zhou Shisan was wearing this suit at first, he only felt soreness in his back, but...these days, he was wearing armor every day, and his muscles ached all over his body, but he gradually got used to it.
After all... he eats a lot, his physical strength can keep up, and his physical strength gradually increases. Now, he even becomes one with the chain armor. Sometimes when he takes off the chain armor, Zhou Shisan feels as light as a swallow. It seems that people are going to float to the sky.
What he held in his hand was an iron spike that was more than half a foot long.
Not only that, but there are sabers, daggers, and water bags for quenching thirst at the waist.
This is his whole body's belongings, nearly 40 kilograms. At this time, he is the same as the robe beside him, and at the same time, he is erecting the iron spikes diagonally.
At this time, only Zhang Fu shouted: "People are here!"
The orders of the model camp are always concise and effective.
I won't talk to you half a sentence.
This order means that you must become one with the ground under your feet, and you must never move a step except to fall.
In the distance... is the roar of war horses.
It would be a lie to say that there is no fear, at least the roar of the horseshoe made Zhou Shisan's heart beat faster.
He was even so nervous that he was holding the iron thorn in his palm, sweating.
But at the same time, there was an inexplicable excitement that made him almost reflexively respond with his fellow robes around him: "Here!"
Under the sunlight, layers of armor like fish scales were layered on top of each other, forming a circle, densely packed people stood shoulder to shoulder, and the fish scale armor on their bodies reflected halos of light.
It's like an iron wall.
The only thing that can make this iron wall see the slightest breath of life is the eyes exposed under the fish scale mail armor covering the whole body.
In these pairs of eyes, there is excitement, fear, and hesitation.
But... no one took a step back.
da da da da...
da da da da...
The cavalry launched a sprint.
Qianhu Chen Gan took the lead.
But when he got close, his eyes suddenly sank.
Suddenly, he realized that the people in front of him... were not simple.
To what extent is it not simple, the other party is actually wearing full body armor.
And they are all chain armor.
It is almost impossible.
Because such armor is generally used for cavalry, and only the elite of the elite can use it.
The reason is very simple, the vast majority of soldiers simply cannot afford such heavy armor.
This is an iron bump weighing tens of kilograms.
No matter how good the health of ordinary soldiers is, they are afraid that once they put on the armor, they will collapse.
And among the elite, there are very few people who can hold up their armor, because... such a person, you have to let him torture his body every day, and if you want to torture your body, you must eat meat every now and then. , this is not to say that it is an ordinary guard, even if it is the imperial army, it is absolutely unimaginable.
But right now, with so many people, how can they support these armors.
Not only that, he could clearly feel that even though the other party was carrying such a heavy load, each of them was full of energy, and the erected spears did not move at all.
This forest of spears, placed in front of the eyes, refracts sharp light under the sun, making one's heart chill.
Of course... it's not all there.
Facing the onslaught of cavalry.
The most difficult thing for an infantryman to overcome is often the fear in his heart.
This kind of fear will continue to magnify as the cavalry sprints, so Chen Gan, who is well versed in cavalry, has rich experience in assaulting infantry.
He can always be like a cat playing with a mouse, waiting until the opponent is afraid and there is a gap in the opponent's formation, and then rushes up without hesitation, directly tearing a hole in this formation, and then... it is cavalry against infantry The crazy killing.
But what surprised Chen Gan even more was that there were no weak links or gaps in the opponent's formation, and almost everyone was sticking to their posts. fear.
But...the other party didn't move.
Like a turtle shell, it is as safe as a rock.
Zhang Fu shouted loudly at this time: "Shield."
Zhang Fu's blood was boiling at this moment.
It was as if the blood in his body had awakened. At this moment...he felt that his deceased father seemed to be looking at him from the sky.
He was excitedly in the formation, holding the hilt of the saber with his hand. At this moment, Zhang Fu was like a sword about to be unsheathed.
In the front row, the iron shields were ejected one after another.
This iron shield is half the height of a person, and the person holding the shield is half squatting.
The rest leaned their bodies sideways and stretched out their spears.
It is still neat and tidy, and everyone is in step.
They have tried this situation time and time again, and they are already familiar with it.
The thick iron shield and the spear erected in the gap of the iron shield were right in front of him, and Chen Gan felt his scalp go numb.
He realized that he might have been careless.
"King of Han, don't you mean I'm just a group of youngsters with a group of new recruits?"
He roared inwardly.
But at this time...the bow did not turn back, but he had no choice but to stand on the horse, raise the knife, and shouted calmly: "Kill!"
boom……
The first cavalryman who rushed to the front of the formation crashed into the formation without hesitation.
But soon, the war horse was directly pierced by the sharp spear.
The man flew directly to the big shield. He narrowly escaped the iron spear, but unfortunately hit the iron shield, as if he had hit a wall. He felt his ribs were broken and he had rolled away.
dong dong dong...
One after another cavalry, Pegasus hit.
Countless war horses roared.
Some people were directly pierced by Tie Mao, and blood was poured down like rain.
Some war horses were lucky enough to hit the iron shield, but their impact force still couldn't break the iron wall.
People turn their backs.
Iron cavalry in all directions, one after another.
They wield their swords...but suddenly there is a sense of tragedy.
Chen Gan's eyes were red, and he was impatient.
But at this time, he was still pressing the long knife, and shouted in his mouth: "Break the formation, break the formation!"
This kind of formation, as long as there is a gap, as long as there is a gap...
He had such an idea.
The matter has come to this point, there is no way to retreat, the only choice is to step on the horse.
And today Cewei Xiaoqi is definitely not in vain, he is still brandishing his sword, fighting hard one after another.
Even if someone is pierced by a spear, someone is directly thrown to the point where all the bones are broken.
Still keep going.
The fight shook the sky.
The center of the original array.
Some people are calm and relaxed.
He observed the situation in all directions.
If it is said that others are excited, fearful, and passionate.
But he, some are just surprisingly calm.
It seems... he observed something, and then he shouted: "Thunder!"
Dozens of people in the center of the circle took out grenades one by one.
These men were not wearing fish-scale mail, and they were the only ones in the battalion who were allowed not to wear heavy armor.
They were all carefully selected by Qiu Song, and their only advantage was their amazing arm strength.
At this time, they pinched Lei familiarly.
Take out the fire fold, ignite the fuse, and it's done in one go.
Obviously, they are well aware of every step, and there will never be any accidents.
People who have accidents... generally end badly.
Immediately afterwards, mines were thrown out one by one.
From the tortoise formation, it seemed that all of a sudden, black balls appeared in the sky.
These spheres crossed perfect arcs in the air, and then... fell to the ground.
Just when Tiance Wei Xiaoqi was still fighting desperately.
The orb fell around them.
After an instant.
Boom... boom... boom...
Dozens of grenades exploded from around them one by one.
This grenade contains not only gunpowder, but because of the small charge, it is much less powerful than the previous gunpowder pack.
It's just... the cruelest thing here is that there are still a lot of iron pieces and iron beads in the grenade.
So... as the gunpowder exploded, the iron flakes and iron beads also scattered.
uh... ah...
The horses were frightened.
The offensive stalled.
The person on the horse was suddenly beaten into a sieve and fell directly to the ground.
The iron balls and pieces flying wantonly in the air instantly caused the surrounding people to fall down.
In the big camp.
I heard the sound of horseshoes, the neighing of war horses, the fighting and explosions.
Fang Bin, the right servant of the Ministry of War, was startled.
He became uneasy.
It seemed that the next moment, someone would enter the camp, maybe someone would indiscriminately chop him up.
Although he imagined that perhaps His Highness the King of Han would not be so crazy, he should still be rational.
But very soon, he seemed to realize... If King Han can let people attack the model camp without hesitation, then what is he... what?
"Crazy, crazy..." Fang Bin couldn't help cursing in a low voice, but his heart became more and more uneasy.
He squinted at Zhang Anshi, this guy is not a good bird, the old man was used by him, it's over, it's over...
Deep in my heart, an indescribable sadness rose up.
The majestic right servant of the Ministry of War, with a bright future, did he expect to be buried here?
Yao Guangxiao on the side continued to chant scriptures, but he was calm.
Of course, this kind of composure does not come from the fact that he is not afraid of death.
But it is... since you have received the sesame oil money from others, you have to have the consciousness of death.
Anyway, at this age, he probably won't live for a few years.
Hey... People, always think about it.
Zhang Anshi sat upright, but he was a little nervous.
Today's match was indeed planned by him. He had to get rid of Tiance Wei, or at least beat them hard once before the model camp set off for Annan.
If not, once the model camp left, the three culprits in the capital would also go to Annan, and Zhang Anshi felt that he was in danger in the capital.
Although Jianghu is a world of people, but if you don't even have the ability to fight and kill, then talk about a bird's world of people, are you worthy?
Zhang Anshi is somewhat sure about Tian Cewei, because he knows that after many soldiers and horses became imperial guards, they began to slowly decay. The speed of this corruption and transformation is astonishing.
Of course it's not just that, Zhang Anshi's confidence comes from his confidence in the money, he really spent the money, it was real money, and the money was not withheld.
This kind of crazy throwing money, not only the soldiers, but even their families, he also raised them together.
The grenade finally exploded...
Zhang Anshi sweated when he heard the roar, wondering if Qiu Song's grenadier could perform a miracle.
Zhang Anshi silently wiped the cold sweat off his forehead.
Well, trust Qiu Song...
…………
rumbling...
Bombers, bomb like crazy.
There are earth-shattering roars everywhere.
The blood mist condensed around the circle and could not be dispelled.
The throwing distance of this grenade is only a few feet, logically speaking, it may not be safe for the thrower.
But... there is an iron shield.
Each iron shield formed a copper wall and an iron wall.
Not only separated the impact of Xiaoqi, but also separated the blasted iron sheet.
Even though some iron pieces occasionally passed through the gap and flew into the circle, the guys with the iron anchors were almost armed to the teeth, and the iron pieces slapped on the mail armor, making only a clanging sound.
But those brave knights seemed to be in hell on earth all of a sudden.
The formation in front could not be broken through, and many people were pierced by iron spears, and they uttered endless wailing and mourning.
The explosions continued in the rear... The horses were frightened, and a person fell down covered in blood.
So... only after the battle, there was no incense stick.
The offensive suddenly diminished.
Xiaoqi's heart was filled with chills, they looked around in horror, for fear that the dark thing would appear around them at any time.
The frightened war horses collided with each other, and the people on the horses were thrown away one by one.
The man who fell from the horse had his muscles and bones broken, and was even trampled by the horses of the rear team, screaming like a pig being killed.
But the iron wall remained motionless.
Everyone behind the iron shield didn't make any sound.
From fear, to hesitation, to now, they are full of confidence.
Everyone's duty is very simple. The person holding the shield curls up and presses against the shield tightly.
The person who set up the iron spear held the iron spear tightly, and didn't even need to thrust out.
The only one with technical content may be the grenadier.
Fortunately, they were already familiar with this under Qiu Song's brutal training.
At this moment, Zhu Yong was like a general in the battle, observing his surroundings calmly.He did not give orders lightly, but responded calmly according to the situation.
Even his father, a birdman, can make great achievements on the battlefield. I am better than my father, which makes sense.
Zhou Shisan's first kill.
Because his iron spear directly pierced a cavalryman on horseback.
He only felt that the iron spear sank, but his muscles were still tense, and he firmly pressed against the iron spear. No one around him retreated.
At this moment...he had a novel feeling.
It was as if... he had become one with this place.
So, like a rock, he continued to set up his spear here, motionless.
The teaching once said... a man must make great achievements.
He has always been ignorant, and he doesn't know what unworldly kung fu is. Now he understands that the so-called unshield kung fu is here, not retreating, and defeating his enemies.
There are also some fallen cavalry who seem to be in a hurry to kill. They are outside the shield, stepping on the corpses of their companions, holding knives, wanting to jump over the shield and enter the formation like crazy.
It's just...he suddenly realized that what greeted him was the iron spears of the rear team in the formation.
This is a kind of indescribable despair. When you have survived a narrow escape and thought that you have successfully entered the battle and become the lucky one, what you get is not a surprise, but a deeper suffering.
But at this time... there has been a collapse.
Especially after the grenade exploded, some people were terrified.
Qianhu Chen Gan shouted angrily first: "Death to the fugitive!"
But later, he suddenly discovered...it was useless at all.
Looking at the rock-solid round shield, he felt an indescribable sense of powerlessness, and his face was miserable...seeing that the offensive ahead was getting weaker and weaker.
The offensive and defensive trend reversed.
Because at this time, Xiaoqi had already sensed that Xiaoqi was exhausted, and the impact force of the war horse was almost zero, and a large number of people began to choose to flee.
At this time, Zhu Yong shouted: "Kill!"
This resolute word immediately added killing intent to the air full of gunpowder smoke and blood.
So... the circle instantly turned around.
The large shields fell to the ground one after another.
The grenadiers collect mines.
Behind the big shield, Rulin's iron spears were at this moment, and these people who were fully armed and armed to the teeth shouted together: "Kill!"
Like a lotus flower blooming.
Everyone rushed out together.
No one expected that at this time, the opponent would directly countercharge.
The person who was rushing to kill... was caught off guard.
Before he could react, Zhou Shisan, who came with a spear, had already pierced him.
The rout is more obvious.
This kind of psychological impact has reached the limit of Xiaoqi.
So... the army was defeated like a mountain.
Someone turned around and fled.
Those who were lucky enough to be still on the horse quickly left the battlefield.
And those who dismounted did not have such luck.
Rulin's iron spears approached quickly, and began to frantically harvest life.
"Qianhu, run away."
Someone came to Chen Gan's side.
Chen Gan rode his horse and spun around in place. The horse pawed restlessly and neighed.
Chen Gan looked at everything in front of him in disbelief, and he felt an indescribable sense of exhaustion.
It's over, is that the end?
This is an elite knight.
It was... the Duoyan Jingqi who was on the Jingnan battlefield back then.
Seeing wailing everywhere, corpses strewn across the field.
Seeing those men who were full of confidence before, now... or they are dead bodies, or mourning on the ground, and some even look like bereaved dogs.
"Thousands..."
"Escape?" Chen Gan smiled bitterly: "Where can I escape? Who can spare me?"
If he wins, even if his superiors blame him, perhaps the King of Han can protect him.
But now?
I'm afraid that the first one who wants to kill him is the King of Han.
And he... actually ruined Tiance Wei Xiaoqi for life.
It was buried so thoroughly.
"Qianhu, don't leave..."
Seeing that the iron armor that has become a long snake sprints towards it under the sun, shining like an iron wave.
Chen Gan raised his knife and was furious: "Kill!"
The knife did not cut off.
The person under the horse has already thrust out the iron spear.
Straight into Chen Gan's thigh.
With a loud cry, Chen Gan fell off the horse dragging his bloody legs.
But what followed was another iron armor holding an iron spear, stabbing with a spear.
This time it was the throat.
Chen Gan almost saw the sharpness of the iron spear coming out of the cage like a poisonous tongue, swift... powerful...
It's not wrong to die.
Such a terrible idea occurred to him.
The opponent wore such heavy armor, fought fiercely for a stick of incense, and was able to charge forward with armor, and the iron spear in his hand had such power, what else could he say in the face of such an opponent.
呲......
The tip of the iron spear was straight out of the throat.
Chen Gan rolled his eyes, and when the iron spear was retracted, blood gushed out from his throat like a fountain.
His face was contorted, and he screamed desperately at his throat, his hands were stained red by his own blood, and his body began to twitch continuously.
After this painful suffocation, he kicked his legs, and at this moment there was only one thought: "God damn King of Han..."
…………
At this time Zhang Anshi came out of the big tent and shouted: "Don't leave the thieves, the right servant of the Ministry of War has an order, Tiance protects and harms the people, the Ministry of War can't bear it, kill them all..."
Hearing Zhang Anshi's arrogant appearance outside the tent, Fang Bin inside the tent suddenly felt relieved.
He was suspicious at first...Impossible.
How can it be?
You can hear Zhang Anshi shouting joyously.
Although he didn't know Zhang Anshi's character, he also knew that something he could not imagine might happen.
That guy Zhang Anshi, if he hadn't resisted Tiance Guard, he would never have jumped like this.
His eyes were busy looking at Yao Guangxiao again.
Yao Guangxiao stopped reciting scriptures.
There also seemed to be suspicion in his eyes, as if... something was wrong.
Zhang Anshi shouted outside: "The model battalion protects the environment and the people, defends the capital, and will never allow such a young man to harm the people. Chase me, get into his mother, dare to provoke me Zhang Anshi, you have eaten the guts of a leopard. I haven’t heard of it, you deserve to be unlucky. Everyone, come out, come out, everyone should be a witness, they are the ones who made the first move, and I have an order from the right servant of the Ministry of War!"
Fang Bin: "..."
Yao Guangxiao got up: "Hey, people are dying, people are dying, the poor monk can't see this... can't see this..."
Fang Bin was still scolding Zhang Anshi just now, when he heard Yao Guangxiao say this, he couldn't help looking at Yao Guangxiao as if he was mentally retarded, and cursed in his heart: "Monk, you can't see killing, who persuaded people to rebel?"
But... this is not the time to scold this.
For Fang Bin, the most urgent task right now is what to do next.
He has established a written statement. Logically speaking, he is not in the Ministry of War and has not received the order of Wenyuan Pavilion, so he cannot mobilize troops at will.
Although he has this authority, he broke the rules after all.
Now that so many people have died here, how should he explain it?
His gaze soon fell on Yao Guangxiao again.
So, he busily laughed, stepped forward to support Yao Guangxiao, and said, "Mr. Yao...this model camp..."
"This model camp... is really surprising." Yao Guangxiao was quite calm, at least better than Fang Bin.
But there was still an indescribable shock in his eyes.
"Your Majesty, how do you explain?"
Yao Guangxiao said: "Just don't deceive the king."
Fang Bin seemed to understand something: "Oh, I'm so confused, yes, yes..."
Yao Guangxiao said again: "The King of Han is really stupid, hey...he is too urgent, such a person can't accomplish great things."
This meaningful remark seemed to be caught by Fang Bin at once, so he quickly nodded and said: "Yes, yes... The King of Han is so stupid... No, it cannot be completely blamed on the King of Han. ..."
Yao Guangxiao smiled: "Let's go out and have a look, hey...the poor monk should go and save the souls of the dead."
He had a look of compassion on his face. After all, the people who died at this time may all be his former pilgrims. It is too sad to die one less.
At that moment, Fang Bin helped Yao Guangxiao out of the tent.
But at this moment...they were again stunned by the scene before them...
Pawns chasing cavalry...unheard of.
Here Zhang Anshi, a few pawns holding big shields surrounded him tightly, Zhang Anshi shouted: "Come and kill, come and kill, aren't you very brave? If you have the ability to attack me, Zhang Anshi, enter Damn, with one finger, I will teach you to be wiped into ashes."
