Chapter 1272 General Vs. General
The sun was setting, and it was as red as blood.
Under the trampling of countless horses, the red blood and white snow all turned into black mud.
The ground was full of fallen knights, some dead, and some only injured. The dead were fine, and they didn't have to suffer again, but the injured were miserable. Under such dense galloping horses, no one could survive. They were all trampled to death, and their blood and intestines flowed in the mud, and the whole person turned into mud.
The originally purest snowfield has now become the dirtiest mud pond, but it also covers up the tragic scene of corpses everywhere...
The soldiers on both sides didn't care about these, they were still entangled and fighting madly.
The Ming cavalry was like a red torrent, circling around the outer perimeter of the Yuan army. Every circle would pick a layer of Yuan soldiers off their horses, just like peeling cabbage.
Of course, the Yuan army couldn't passively take the beating. They relied on their advantage in numbers and tried desperately to break out and reoccupy the outer circle. But the Ming army did not give them any chance at all. They occupied the outer line tightly in the maneuver. No matter which direction the Yuan army broke through, they would be blocked and locked in the inner circle.
Toluhuchar was in the center of the inner circle. Seeing the Ming army constantly devouring his people, he was extremely anxious.
He knew that the Ming army could charge forward with the advantage of equipment, and it would be difficult for him to regain the outer circle through maneuvers, so he gritted his teeth and ordered his younger brother Yesuohuchar: "Divide the troops! I will hold them, and you will withdraw from the back with half of the troops, and then turn around and attack the Ming army with me!"
"Brother, your troops are too few!" Yesuohuchar said anxiously: "I'll hold them back, and you can withdraw!"
"You can't hold them back." Toluhuchar took off his iron bone flower, stretched his arms and said: "Leave it to me, the Bater of Wuliangha!"
Yesuo wanted to persuade, but Toluhuchar was already impatient and shouted: "Go!"
"Yes." Yesuohuchar had no choice but to respond, and then whistled several times.
When his subordinates heard the order, they turned their horses around, left the main formation, and followed Yesuo to retreat.
Toluhuchar led his subordinates to continue fighting with the Ming army, not letting them block Yesuo's way.
However, Wang Bi had no intention of stopping Yesuo. He was like a wolf, leading the pack to circle around the prey, always looking for an opportunity to capture the thief and the leader.
When the Yuan army began to split up, he knew the opportunity had come.
Wang Bi patiently waited for Yesuo to lead his men and completely separate from Tuoluhuchar's troops. He immediately ordered to change to a sharp arrow formation!
With the sharp sound of the copper whistle, the Ming army soldiers no longer circled with the Yuan army, and suddenly turned into a huge arrow, attacking the Yuan army formation that had obviously become sparse in a wedge shape!
At the front of the arrow was Wang Bi holding a dragon and phoenix sun and moon sword. The sword in his hand cut iron like mud, and his sword skills were even more superb. None of the Yuan army that blocked him could stop him in three moves or two styles, and often they became his dead souls before they could react.
Wang Bi was Chang Yuchun's vanguard general. He would charge into the battle every time he fought, and he was invincible. Although he is now nearly fifty years old, he is still as sharp as a sword, which makes the Yuan army feel what it feels like to have an opponent with thousands of enemies.
Under his leadership, the Ming army's front arrow array penetrated deeply into the Yuan army array like a hot knife into butter, almost without any hindrance.
In the Yuan army array, people and horses were thrown to the ground, and the Yuan army on both wings tried desperately to close in the middle to protect their central army.
However, they were firmly resisted by the Ming army led by Guo Zhen. The two sides were entangled in a ball, and no one could move. They all forgot about keeping a distance. They squeezed people and horses next to each other, hacked and stabbed each other, and even kicked the enemy with their feet and grabbed the opponent's weapons with their hands. Jumping onto the opponent's horse to fight, and finally hugging each other and falling off the horse, the scene was extremely chaotic.
But the Ming army soldiers still firmly protected the back of their commander, allowing Wang Bi to kill the only Mongolian wearing iron armor without distraction.
Toluhuchar was also staring at Wang Bi.
He had long noticed that this Ming general, who was wearing exquisite mountain pattern armor and a golden helmet, was coming for him.
Perhaps other Yuan generals would be scared away by this brave Ming general, but he was different. He was the first Bater of the grasslands personally appointed by the Northern Yuan Emperor. He hated the escapeism that the Yuan army had become accustomed to, and he would never turn around and run away in front of a strong enemy like those cowards!
And he believed that with his natural power in his prime, he would never lose to this old man who was already in his forties or fifties!
So Toluhuchar shouted to the guards in front of him: "Get out of the way!"
As Wang Bi killed another Yuan soldier in front of him, there was no one between him and Toluhuchar.
~~
A passage briefly appeared in the dense formation of the two armies.
At both ends of the passage was the Dingyuan Marquis of the Ming Dynasty and the Wanhu Marquis of the Wuliangha. Both were the top heroes of the two nations.
The two looked at each other and reached a tacit understanding. They wanted to fight in a heroic way, not only to determine who was better, but also to decide life and death.
"Kill!" Tuoluhuchar shouted, waving his iron bone flower, and rushed towards Wang Bi on horseback.
His iron bone flower weighed 40 kilograms. Some Ming soldiers wanted to intercept him, but he hit them with one bone flower and made them spit blood and fall off their horses. The chain mail that could not be broken by swords and arrows could not protect its owner at all. A heavy blow from the iron bone flower would break the bones and tendons of the person...
"Come on!" Wang Bi also shouted, holding his sword and rushing forward!
The two began to fight in the center of the formation!
Amid the sharp sound of breaking wind, Tuoluhuchar waved the Iron Bone Flower, smashing and hitting Wang Bi for more than ten times before he staggered with him.
Wang Bi did not dodge or evade, holding the Dragon Phoenix Sun and Moon Sword and fighting Tuoluhuchar head-on for more than ten times. Sparks flew everywhere, and the sound of metal clashing made people dizzy.
After the horses crossed, Wang Bi turned his horse's head and praised: "Good man!"
This is called fists are afraid of young people. If he was twenty years younger, he would have chopped the opponent to the ground with both man and horse. But now he was shocked so much that his arms were numb and his knuckles were painful.
Tuoluhuchar on the opposite side was more shocked than him. He was less than thirty years old and at the peak of his power, but he was shocked by an old man and his knuckles were broken and his arms were shaking. He dared not imagine how powerful the other party was back then.
But this aroused his heroic spirit even more, and he laughed and said: "Old man, die!"
As he said that, he gritted his teeth and clenched the Iron Bone Flower, and rushed towards Wang Bi again.
"You're the one who's going to die!" Wang Bi had admired this man, but when he heard him call him old man, he immediately flew into a rage. He
While spouting trash words, he rode his horse and raised his sword, and went to meet Tuoluhuchar again.
Tuoluhuchar's eyes were bloodshot, and he used all his strength to smash Wang Bi's forehead with a forceful Huashan!
Wang Bi's eyes were also wide open, veins on his forehead bulged, and he raised his sword to meet Tuoluhuchar's iron bone flower!
