Chapter 19 The rain is coming

Thanks to the friends "xiaogino" and "ately" for their support~

——————————————

The entire Si army was fully equipped, and the Qingyu City Gate suspension bridge was lowered. Everyone lined up to come out of the city gate. Qian Xiaoxing rode on his horse and stood on the side of the road. He watched the team pass by one by one. He didn't know what the result would be when going out to fight this time, and he was very nervous.

In the past, when fighting wars were either guarding the pass or defending the city, this time we went out to launch an attack on the plains with the Hu army. The time for the troops to be truly tested. If we could win, these Hu soldiers would lose their ability to counterattack. However, if they lost, the military troops would definitely suffer a lot. They probably could only return to Cangqiong Pass to regain their energy and could not get out of the pass for the time being.

So this battle can be said to be a decisive battle, and there is no plan to fight on the plains, and it is completely a head-on battle. The Hu army has 10,000 troops of King Wu, which is definitely a difficult opponent. Qian Xiaoxing took a deep breath and felt the pressure on his shoulders.

However, the Hu army went to attack Cangqiong Pass this time, but could not ignore it. Qian Xiaoxing tightened the reins of the horse, rode his horse and followed the troops, found Yang Qing and said, "The Hu army forced us out of the city this time, for fear of ambushing on the road. You can arrange more scouts to come forward to investigate and report it immediately if there is any situation."

"Yes!" Yang Qing immediately rode his horse away after answering.

Hu Suoyuan has been following Qian Xiaoxing to protect him. Qian Xiaoxing said to him: "We have a hot air balloon, don't waste it. Find a good-looking ride and conduct reconnaissance in front of the army."

"I understand!" Hu Suoyuan immediately went to make arrangements.

With double reconnaissance protection, Qian Xiaoxing could finally feel more at ease. After the troops marched for a long time, it became dark. At this moment, a scout had already returned to report that Hu Jun was currently ten miles away from the Si Jun and was stationed in an area called Fuling.

It takes at least two days to get from Qingyu City to Wujiao City, so Qian Xiaoxing was not in a hurry to chase him. Seeing that the other party had already been stationed, he also ordered the Si army to station on the spot.

The troops built a camp, and the tent of the military camp was brightly lit. Qian Xiaoxing summoned the generals of the army to discuss the pursuit of the Hu army.

Qian Xiaoxing looked at everyone, each with serious faces and cold expressions. It seemed that they had a foreshadowing that there was a big battle waiting for them to fight, and they felt pressured.

Seeing that everyone was silent, Qian Xiaoxing said, "This time we were forced out by the Hu army and wanted to launch a plain war with the Hu army that they are good at. What do you think?"

The leader of the Tiger Regiment, Leoth, was the first to answer, waved his hand and said, "I don't have any opinion. I just know that I will fight to the death and never embarrass Si Jun."

Qian Xiaoxing waved his hand and asked Leoth to sit down and said, "We must have a fight. This decisive battle is related to the future development of Si Guo. If we lose, we can only go back to Cangqiong Pass in shame. It will be difficult to think about it again. Therefore, my requirement for everyone is that even if the fight is done, it will be spared and we must take down these Hu troops for me!"

In the past, Qian Xiaoxing was always unwilling to sacrifice too many soldiers in wars, but this time it seemed that it was no longer possible to win with less losses, so this time he also sacrificed his life. Without such determination to die, it would probably be even more difficult to fight.

Xiong Yitan, the leader of the Lion Corps, said: "Chief of Staff, don't worry, everyone knows that this battle is of great importance and will do their best."

Qian Xiaoxing sighed: "This army is like my own child. As he grows up and grows, I have always protected him and don't want him to be injured. But one day he will meet a strong enemy outside, so he should let him go out for training. Today is his first experience. Although I have confidence in him, it depends on his performance. Therefore, I hope to see everyone show their best abilities."

Ni Qiu, the political commissar of the Feilong Regiment, replied: "Chief of Staff, our backbone of the troops, have been educated by ideologically. The loyal officers of the loyal officers, even if they fight to the last person, they will rush forward and will not retreat!"

"Yes, I won't back down!" Everyone started shouting.

Looking at everyone's firm expressions, Qian Xiaoxing was also very pleased. It seemed that his early training and education of the troops had achieved fruitful results, so he said, "Let's talk, how do we fight this battle?"

Xie Boyi, the political commissar of the Tiger Regiment, asked: "Chief of Staff, you must have an idea, so let everyone listen."

"It turns out that I do ideological work. You can see it when I have any ideas." Qian Xiaoxing smiled and said, "Then I will talk about my opinion first. Since it is a head-on battle, then we will openly and pull out the Hu Jun. Tomorrow, I will send someone to send a letter of decisive battle to Hu Jun and set up a formation to fight with Hu Jun."

Xie Boyi nodded and said, "The victory we achieved in the war in the past can be said to have been won by the Chief of Staff with a strange plan, so everyone is unsure of the true strength of the troops. This time we set up a formation to fight the Hu army, and the strength can be fully reflected. If the troops win, they will definitely make the soldiers more confident and know what kind of iron army their troops are."

After hearing this, Qian Xiaoxing couldn't help but applaud and said, "It seems that everyone is getting smarter and smarter with me." After hearing this, everyone also understood why Qian Xiaoxing went against the norm and came to confront each other head-on.

"Chief of Staff, we all listen to you, just give orders!"

"The Iron Army of Siguo is invincible in the world!"

"Defeat the Hu army! Protect our country!"

...

Everyone started shouting and looked angry.

Qian Xiaoxing also said excitedly: "Okay! Everyone has it! The decisive battle with the Hu army tomorrow, and you must destroy the Hu army in one fell swoop!"

"Yes!" Everyone replied with their fists.

Qian Xiaoxing disbanded the meeting, and everyone went back to mobilize pre-warly for his soldiers, leaving only Shi Yeying beside Qian Xiaoxing.

Seeing that there was no one around, Shi Yeying grabbed Qian Xiaoxing's hand and said, "Xiaoxing, I have never seen you so nervous. Don't worry, we will definitely win."

"Haha," Qian Xiaoxing smiled casually and said, "Of course it will win, otherwise I won't go to fight. It's just that I'm worried that the casualties are too great. Please accompany me out for a walk."

The two walked out of the tent side by side and walked in the camp. The sky was pitch black, and the moon and stars were not seen at all. Qian Xiaoxing looked at the sky and said, "It seems that the weather will be bad tomorrow."

The fire in the fire brazier in the camp was blown around by the wind, and it was whistling. Shi Yeying replied: "It seems that God knows that we are going to have a decisive battle, so we can't bear to open our eyes."

In the camp, soldiers blew up the silhouette. The silhouette was a musical instrument made of clay. It looked like a goose egg with six holes on it. A low and melodious sound spread throughout the barracks. Shi Yeying approached Qian Xiaoxing, and the two hugged each other, listening quietly...

The next day, the letter of decisive battle was delivered to Peng Guangyi. After reading it, Peng Guangyi couldn't help laughing and handed the letter of decisive battle to Meng Zhongzhan and said, "Please look at General Meng. Si Jun finally couldn't help but feel at ease and was going to fight us."

"It seems that our method of taking everything is effective. Si Jun wants to fight against my King Wu Division on the plains, and he is simply overestimating his ability. This time, it depends on my King Wu Division." Meng Zhongzhan said happily.

Peng Guangyi nodded and said, "Okay, I will lead the troops to support the general and I will definitely defeat the Si army in one fell swoop!"

"Immediately call the troops and fight to the death!" Meng Zhongzhan punched the table and immediately broke the wooden table apart.

On the vast plains in Fuling area, there are loess at first glance, no hills or forests, so the troops are all clearly moved.

Dark clouds cover the sky and the sun, the weather is gloomy, and the heavy dark clouds are constantly rolling, gradually lower and lower. The strong wind blows the loess, and the blowing military flags are ringing. It is really a storm that is about to come and wind fills the building.

The Hu army's 10,000 Wu Kings Division had already assembled and formed a four-way formation on standby. From a distance, it looked like a square box placed on the loess. The soldiers were full of excitement. The multiple killings had already made them understand that they had to be excited at this time to exert their maximum combat effectiveness.

Behind the Wu King Division was the 35,000 infantry led by Peng Guangyi, which was lined up in a long row, with the soldiers neatly swaying, and the raised flags kept swinging in the wind.

Qian Xiaoxing also expected that the Hu army would use the King of Wu as the main force. Last night, it had already thought about countermeasures. Although it was a head-on battle, some skills could be paid attention to. Qian Xiaoxing asked the 4,000 cavalry regiment to take the lead, followed by a 12,000 infantry phalanx, and the Wild Sakura Regiment and the Dark Knight Regiment were placed at the end.

Hu Suoyuan looked at Qian Xiaoxing's formation and was puzzled, and asked, "Chief of Staff, why don't you use the Dark Knights to take the lead?"

Qian Xiaoxing said mysteriously: "I naturally have the intention, you will know later."

The soldiers on both sides were about five hundred meters apart. After they lined up, they stood silently. The battlefield was bleak, without a trace of noise, only the strong wind sounded.

Qian Xiaoxing was blown to his eyes by the dust swept up by the wind, and he couldn't help but squint. The clothes beside him swung in the wind, making a sound. Qian Xiaoxing pulled out the samurai sword from his waist and gradually raised it up.

"Crack--" A flash of lightning flashed through the sky, illuminating the sky and the earth, and the roaring thunder followed.

Qian Xiaoxing pointed the samurai sword forward and ordered: "Cabinets and storms, rush!"

When Meng Zhongzhan saw the other party moving, he also shouted: "Marquisition of King Wu, the king's army, rush!"

The raindrops as big as beans in the sky fell down, falling on the loess and smashing circles of dust, and the air immediately filled with a hot atmosphere.

The rain could not stop the soldiers' footsteps. The soldiers on both sides rushed towards the battlefield in the middle, getting closer and closer, and the moment of confrontation was coming.

Each cavalry of the Zongheng Cavalry Regiment held a spear in his right hand and grabbed three with his left hand. This was done by Qian Xiaoxing, considering the defense of the heavy armor of the King of Wu, it was very difficult to pierce even with a samurai sword. Therefore, the only one that can break the heavy helmet is a sharp spear. However, once the spear is pierced, it will take a lot of time and effort to pull it out, so let the cavalry bring more spears, and after one is pierced, let the other one be replaced.

The two sides shouted and rushed, getting closer and closer. Suddenly, the cavalry regiment changed its formation, divided into two rows from the middle, and ran towards the flank of the infantry formation of the King of Wu Division.

Qian Xiaoxing, the powerful Qian Xiaoxing, had seen it with his own eyes. Of course, he would not let the cavalry rush in and fight with them, but instead ordered them to attack the edge of the Wuwang Division's phalanx. He would have a few shots when he had the chance, and if he didn't, he would have to run around the phalanx.

The soldiers of the King of Wu Division were equipped with spears, swords, daggers, and fully armed. At this moment, they were waving the spears in their hands and fighting with the cavalry of the sequel cavalry.

"Puff!" The sharp spear pierced through the heavy armor. Although a soldier from the Martial King Division was stabbed and spit out blood, he saw that he held the spear and pulled it down and wanted to pull the cavalry down. Unexpectedly, the other party let go and pulled it away. Then he stabbed in again, and finally fell to his knees and fell to the ground.

The cavalry circled around the square formation and attacked from time to time. The soldiers of the King of Wu's division couldn't help but spread out to chase the cavalry, and both sides suffered a slight loss.

The rain was getting heavier and heavier. Meng Zhongzhan wiped the rain on his eyes and saw that the Si army cavalry was just running around the Wu King's Division. The dense phalanx of the Wu King's Division gradually loosened. Seeing this, he couldn't help but wonder and asked Peng Guangyi beside him: "General Peng, what are the Si army cavalry doing?"

Peng Guangyi also kept paying attention to the battlefield situation and replied: "What's so strange about this? The cavalry of the Si army could not attack and could not enter the square formation, so he had to run around."
