"Qiang!"

"Qiang Qiang!"

In the Han army's main formation on the outskirts of Dongcheng, Shanyang, Han general Ju Xin and Wei general Wu Ji each wielded long-handled weapons and clinked into a ball.

At this time, nearby, many Wei soldiers from the Shang Shui army also entered the ranks of the Korean army, and they were inseparable from the Quyang army.

It has to be said that in the previous siege battle against Shanyang, the strength of the Quyang soldiers was evident. Even the Shanyang army under the command of Yan King Zhao Hongjiang, which had been shining brightly in the past six months, found it very difficult to face the Quyang soldiers.

However, now in front of Shang Shui's soldiers, Qu Yang's soldiers fell into a disadvantage in a short period of time, and were defeated by the former.

The drop in morale is certainly one thing. After all, no one in the Korean army expected that the troops under the command of Wei Gongzi Run would come to support by such a coincidence, so that the thousands of Korean troops who were still outside the city at this moment were facing tens of thousands.

When the Wei army planned to reinforce the army, they were already frightened, and there was no fighting spirit left.

Another point is the difference in equipment.

Even though the weapons and equipment worn by the Shangshui soldiers have been in use for nearly two years and have been extremely worn due to repeated expeditions, and are about to be replaced, but even so, the sharp long swords in the hands of the Korean infantry still require a lot of effort.

Only by piercing the armor of Wei soldiers - but the Shang Shui army are not fools, wouldn't they turn around and use shields to resist?

Shang Shuijun, who has rich combat experience, has figured out some tricks to kill the enemy and save his life during long years of fighting. For example, when the enemy's sharp blade stabs his armor, he suddenly turns sideways, and then uses the shield of his left hand to face the enemy.

A heavy shield strike, and then take advantage of the situation to hit the opponent hard.

As for the enemy's chops, unfortunately, the Shang Shui Army has yet to encounter an enemy whose armor can be broken through with just one chop.

This is the advantage that equipment brings.

Relying on weapons and armor that were still excellent and reliable after two years of use, the Shangshui Army had an overwhelming advantage over the Quyang Army. Even when comparing the hard power of the soldiers, the difference between the two soldiers was actually not that far apart.

"puff--"

"ah!"

The screams of the Han army in Quyang kept coming and going, which shocked Han General Ju Xin.

Neither he nor the Quyang soldiers under his command have actually fought against the Shang Shui army so far. They have only heard that the defeated generals Bao Yuan, Jin Ao, and Feng Ting who were defeated by Wei Gongzi Run mentioned that "King Su"

The power of the army

——Shang Shui Army, Yanling Army, (Shang Shui) Youma Army, Bao Yuan and others spoke very highly of these three Wei armies, so much so that Ju Xin once wondered if these people were trying to elevate their opponents.

to escape the punishment of defeat.

It was only at this moment, when Ju Xin saw with his own eyes that the Qu Yang Army under his command was retreating steadily in front of the Shang Shui Army, did Ju Xin realize that the warnings given by Bao Yuan, Jin Ao, and Feng Tong were not just words.

"Damn it! Wei Jun's reinforcements actually caught such a flaw..."

While parrying Wu Ji's attack, Ju Xin cursed secretly in his heart.

He felt that his luck was really bad. He did not expect that the reinforcements led by Wei Gongzi Run would fall from the sky when their Korean army had broken through Shanyang and 60 to 70% of the soldiers had already entered the city. As a result, his Korean army was suddenly trapped.

Passive.

This is simply God’s protection for Wei Gongzi Run!

Coincidences like this have never happened many times since ancient times!

"Hey, where are you looking?"

Just when Ju Xin was distracted, he suddenly heard the warning from the Wei general in front of him.

He was startled and immediately came to his senses, using the long knife in his hand to block the Wei general's heavy attack.

The heavy force caused the iron rod body of the long-handled sword in Ju Xin's hand to curve horribly.

"Damn it! This bastard named Wu Ji has such a heavy arm?!"

Ju Xin was cursing secretly, when suddenly the horse under his crotch couldn't bear it anymore, bent his knees and leaned forward, knocking him off.

It must be said that Ju Xin was worthy of being a fierce general at the level of the top ten heroes of Beiyuan. When he fell, he swung his long-handled sword and actually broke the two front legs of Wu Ji's horse.

Wu Ji heard a pitiful cry from his horse. Unable to stand still, Wu Ji also pushed his master off his back.

"General!"

"General!"

Amidst the exclamations of the nearby Han and Wei soldiers, Ju Xin and Wu Ji quickly climbed up from the snow, waving their long-handled swords and fighting again.

To be honest, Ju Xin didn't want to fight Wu Ji at this moment because he was very worried about his Quyang soldiers who had already entered Shanyang County.

After all, just now, Wei Gongzi Run's reinforcements had entered the city, which made Wu Ji very worried about his subordinates.

However, Wu Ji clung to him, leaving him unable to do anything.

What makes Ju Xin even more angry is that Wu Ji, a Wei general, is quite powerful. Even compared to Wei Gong Zijiang, he is not inferior to him, or even worse.

Because he was distracted by worrying about his subordinates in Shanyang City, Ju Xin could not display his usual strength at this moment.

On the other hand, Wu Ji, because he had no psychological burden, became more and more comfortable in fighting, so that he gradually suppressed Ju Xin.

Gradually, Ju Xin couldn't hold it anymore, and he couldn't help but said: "Wu Ji, I know you, you are the general of the Shang Shui Army... The majestic general of the Shang Shui Army did not command the soldiers, but showed off the bravery of a mere man!

Aren't you worried that your subordinates will be in disarray?"

Wu Ji looked at Ju Xin with some surprise, but the movements in his hands showed no sign of slowing down.

It's a good thing that Wu Ji is not familiar with Ju Xin, otherwise if he were someone who knew Ju Xin's deeds, he would be ridiculed at this moment, because Ju Xin, like Lian Pi, is a fierce general who highly values ​​personal force. He is the kind of "Although

I am good at commanding, but I just like to be a warrior who acts alone and recklessly.

Especially when encountering a strong general like Yan Wang Zhao Hongjiang, who is very powerful in terms of personal strength, whether he is honest or ruthless, he will not be able to hold back his itch, and will ride alone to kill him regardless of the dissuasion of the soldiers around him.

Therefore, in a sense, Ju Xin said such words at this moment, which means that he has a guilty conscience.

However, Wu Ji didn't know about Ju Xin's deeds. He just said truthfully: "Worried? What is there to worry about? There are many generals in our army who are better at commanding than me..."

This is indeed true. Among the Wei and Qin coalition forces brought by King Su Zhao Hongrun to Shanyang County, there is no shortage of generals who are good at commanding, such as Zhao Hongrun himself, Qin Shaojun, Yangquan Jun Yingba, and Zhai Huang of the Shang Shui Army.

, Nanmen Chi, even Xu Jiong and Chen Shu who were at the level of three thousand generals, and Ran Teng, Xiang Li, Zhang Ming, etc. who were at the level of one thousand generals, were all generals who were good at commanding local small-scale wars.

To be honest, there is not much difference whether Wu Ji, the general of the merchant navy, directs the war.

"Perhaps I don't have the talent for commanding... However, there are things I can do, such as keeping you, the top ten heroes of Beiyuan!" Wu Ji suppressed the smile on his face and lowered his voice.

"Arrogant!" Ju Xin yelled angrily, waving his sword with all his strength and sweeping towards Wu Ji.

However, as if Wu Ji had expected it, he squatted down suddenly and barely avoided the blow.

A few strands of hair fell, Wu Ji quickly pulled out the sword from his waist with his left hand, and when Ju Xin had no time to withdraw his strength, he cut the armor in his abdomen with his backhand.

"..."

Ju Xin subconsciously took two steps back and looked at Wu Ji in surprise.

"General!"

When Ju Xin's guards not far away saw it, they gathered around him one after another and said to Ju Xin: "You can't stay here for long, general, retreat immediately!"

"retreat?"

Ju Xin secretly laughed bitterly.

Yes, now that things have happened, he no longer expects to rescue the Korean army in the city. It is already difficult to save his own life.

Retreat? Easier said than done!

He glanced around and saw that the soldiers of Shang Shui had vaguely surrounded them. The reason why they had not attacked yet was just to respect the competition between Ju Xin and Wu Ji.

But if he turned around and ran away, I believe those Wei soldiers would greet him with the crossbow arrows in their hands - no Wei man would refuse the merit of killing a Korean general!

"Leave……"

Under Ju Xin's solemn gaze, Wu Ji held a long-handled sword in his right hand and tilted it behind his back, and held a sharp sword in his left hand across his chest. A pair of tigers stared at Ju Xin intently.

"...your head!"

"Go away!" Pushing his guard to the side, Ji Xin stared at Wu Ji, took a deep breath, held long-handled swords in both hands, and assumed an attack posture.

He knew that unless he killed the leader of the Wei army in front of him in a fair battle and shaken the minds of the surrounding Wei army, he would never be able to leave here alive.

"Young boy, you want to kill me?!"

With a loud shout, Ju Xin took the lead in attacking. However, Wu Ji's movements were not slow either. The two long-handled weapons collided fiercely. The forceful wave of air even caused the surrounding Shang Shui soldiers to show off.

A look of solemnity and horror.

At the same time, in Shanyang City, similar to the situation of Han general Ju Xin, the two Korean armies of Quyang Army and Handan Army were also facing a dangerous threat. Reinforcements from the Qin and Wei armies came from the south gate of Shanyang respectively.

He broke into the east city gate and killed the Korean army by surprise.

The first to enter Shanyang City was the Iron Eagle Cavalry led by Yangquan Jun Yingbo.

When this Qin cavalry under the banner of "Qin" entered the city, the soldiers and civilians of Shanyang who were still fighting along the southern city wall and desperately blocking the Han army were almost desperate: before the Han army could retreat, the Qin army killed them again.

Entering Shanyang?

After all, ever since the "Victory of Wei Qin Sanchuan Battle" spread throughout the country, the people of Shanyang have judged the Qin people as enemies.

However, at the moment of despair, the soldiers and civilians of Shanyang County saw the Qin cavalry and launched a merciless attack on the Korean army.

With it difficult to distinguish between ourselves and the enemy, the soldiers and civilians of Shanyang County stood near the city wall and watched the Qin army with vigilance.
