Unparalleled Concubine

   Chapter 1084 Pretty enough

   Where there is life, there are fights, but the way of fighting has been changing, from throwing stones and sticks to each other at first, to bronze and iron cavalry, and cold weapons.

The era of    lasted a very long time.

  Even if hot weapons appear, they should gradually replace cold weapons. At least in the fifth year of Yuanzhao, the proportion of cold weapons is much higher than that of new firearms.

Take the Southwest Army as an example. Although the Ningzhou Army and the Hanzhou Army in the Southwest Army each have their own firearms battalion, the number of soldiers in the firearms battalion is far inferior to that of the conventional arms, regardless of whether it is Mu Ying or Li Shuo. Is a general who can wear armor and rush into formation!

The enemy rushed to the front, and the Ningzhou army naturally had no reason to avoid it. Li Shuo directly led the people to rush out. After the two sides fought together, if the formation of the Gyeonggi forbidden army loosened up, it would be overwhelmed by the grouped Ningzhou army. There were few fights, so the commander of the forbidden army quickly adjusted the formation, and according to the battle formation of close combat, they met with the Ningzhou army.

Compared with the formation of the forbidden army, the formation of the Ningzhou army is much tighter. The three soldiers of the Ningzhou army form a team, and they take care of each other when rushing into the formation. The three rely on each other, advancing and retreating as one, and for a while in the frontal collision with the forbidden army, they have the upper hand!

   The formation of this three-person squad is naturally also from Li Xin's handwriting. Although he has never been a soldier in his previous life, he has some knowledge about war. Knowing that this three-person squad is one of the most efficient combat formations.

Li Shuo rode on a horse and rushed into the fighting formation. The slightly fair-skinned general saw that the formation of the forbidden army had already gathered, and made a decisive decision, and immediately ordered: "The whole army obeys the order and retreats towards this formation. !"

At this time, the Ningzhou army still had the upper hand on the battlefield, but these Ningzhou army soldiers quickly demonstrated their military qualities. After Li Shuo gave the order, these people immediately began to retreat in an organized manner, and After the separation of the human hall, the retreating formation was not chaotic, and did not cause a large number of casualties to one's own side.

The position where they were fighting was only a few hundred steps away from the formation of the Ningzhou army. After a while, they withdrew to the formation, and the guards chased after them like maggots attached to bones. When they were only fifty paces away from the Ningzhou army. When he was left and right, Li Shuo's voice came again: "Throw the thunder, throw the thunder!"

   At this time, the formation of the forbidden army was no longer loose, and the throwing soldiers who had been waiting in this formation finally got the chance, and immediately threw their arms at the formation of the forbidden army, throwing lit thunder.

The Tianlei in the southwest was much more powerful than the imperial court's Tianlei. Dozens and hundreds of Tianlei were thrown down, causing the slightly concentrated formation of the forbidden army to immediately chaotic. The forbidden army in the camp immediately knew that something was wrong, and quickly ordered to retreat.

   At this time, how could Li Shuo let them go? After a few rounds of thunder, when the Imperial Guard retreated in embarrassment, the Ningzhou General personally led people to chase after them, and chased and killed these elite Imperial Guards!

   However, once these Gyeonggi Imperial Guards had withdrawn from the shrouded range of Tianlei, they began to fight back and collided with the Ningzhou Army head-on. Except for the firearms, these Imperial Guards were not afraid of the Ningzhou Army.

  The two sides just came and went, and the battle situation was extremely stalemate!

At the same time, Li Xin, who had cleared the cavalry of the Imperial Army on both flanks, also arrived at the frontal battlefield with several hundred fire gun soldiers. Li Xin quickly ordered these fire gun soldiers to stand in front of the throwing soldiers, in the direction of the hundreds of fire guns. All aim at the direction of the forbidden army.

Li Shuo led people to the front line, and Li Xin took over the command of the rear. He led hundreds of gunnery soldiers and nearly a thousand throwing soldiers. Under the protection of shield soldiers, he no longer stood firm, but slowed down. Move forward slowly.

  Once they are enveloped by the firearms of the Southwest Army, these Gyeonggi forbidden troops will slowly retreat, but as long as they retreat, Li Shuo and others will find an opportunity and bite them hard.

   After a few rounds, the formation of the Gyeonggi Imperial Army gradually became a little scattered.

  Finally, in the afternoon, the Gyeonggi Imperial Army could no longer support it. The general who was in charge of leading the troops this time waved a big hand, and the Imperial Army began to shout gold.

At this time, the situation of Ningzhou on the battlefield was completely good. The formation of the forbidden army was scattered, and it was impossible to threaten the Ningzhou army camp in a short time. The Southwest Army on the battlefield had an overall advantage, and even some archers, They all began to move forward slowly, chasing the retreating Imperial Army.

A war at the level of tens of thousands of people is extremely spectacular. Even if one of the parties wants to withdraw, because the number is too large, it is impossible to withdraw. Slowly withdraw to the capital.

   Li Shuo was arrogant. His face was covered in blood. He led someone to bite the tail of the Imperial Army. After more than an hour, two or three thousand people in the Imperial Army died at the hands of the Ningzhou Army.

   Even so, the battle was fought from the morning until the evening. When the sun had almost set, the Southwest Army gave up the pursuit and began to retreat slowly.

  The sun slanted westward, shining on a messy battlefield. Looking around, apart from the smoke and scorched earth, all that could be seen were corpses.

Li Shuo, who was covered in blood, fought for a whole day. Although he took a few breaks in the middle, he was still a little out of strength. After the soldiers on both sides were completely out of contact, the general of the Ningzhou Army breathed the air violently, and his body was a little weak. slumped to the ground.

Li Xin, who was wearing black armor, walked over, he bent over and squatted beside Li Shuo, first checked the injuries on Li Shuo's body, and after finding no major wounds, he asked, "Is it okay? "

"fine."

   Li Shuo sat on the ground, gasping for breath: "Big... Most of it is the blood of the enemy."

Ordinary people who have not been trained will struggle with life and death for a quarter of an hour. Under the adrenaline burst, they may lose their strength, not to mention that Li Shuo has been fighting for almost a whole day, unless it is a natural fierce brother like Ye Mao. Otherwise, it would be very rare to be able to do what Li Shuo did.

   Even Li Xin, who has practiced Neijia Quan for more than ten years, is probably not much stronger than Li Shuo when he leads his troops into battle.

   "You are the general of Ningzhou, you just need to take command from the rear, there is no need to be so... desperate."

  Li Shuo was sitting on the ground and had recovered a bit. His voice was a little hoarse because of dehydration: "Brother said, the Ningzhou army will fight better, and the Hanzhou army should not be allowed to gossip..."

   "The generals of the Ningzhou Army...mostly are the former troops of the Pingnan Army. I won't take the lead, they...will not show their strength."

Li Xin frowned, took off the water bag from his waist, handed it to Li Shuo, and said, "Since you know this, then you can't use all the people from the Pingnan Army as generals, the Marquis of Pingnan. It has disappeared, you Li Shuo are not trying to rebuild the Pingnan Army, use what should be used, and don't use what should not be used, you are the general of Ningzhou, you should control people, not control them."

  Li Shuo took a long sip of water, then covered the water bag, gasping for breath.

   "Brother... the lesson is."

At this time, he looked at the battlefield left and right, and smiled bitterly: "The elite level of the forbidden army is far beyond my imagination. They can forcefully hold firearms and not retreat, but still rush forward. If not, I will not bring People go out and fight them."

   Having said this, he looked up at Li Xin and asked, "Brother, how did this battle... how did it go?"

   General Li looked at the direction of the capital and murmured.

   "Perhaps...beautiful enough."
