The Rhapsody of Mounted Blade Players

The person responsible for commanding this army was Lu Shinang, the Privy Councilor of Fang La Army, who also had eleven other members of the Twelve Gods of Jiangnan under his command. They are Shen Gang, the God of Qingtian, Pan Wende, the Youyi God, Yingming, the Dunjia God, Xu Tong, the Six Ding God, Zhang Jinren, the Thunderbolt God, Shen Ze, the Giant Spirit God, Zhao Yi, the Taibai God, Quan Kuang, the Diaoke God, and Zhuo Wanli, the Yellow Banner God. , Leopard Tail God He Tong and Sangmen God Shen Pin.

Song Jiang and the others don't know how strong the other eleven Jiangnan gods are for the time being, but judging from the combat power of Gao Keli, the Tai Sui god, it shouldn't be too high. After all, this guy is in the hands of Thunderbolt Fire Qin Ming. He could only hold on to three or four moves, and he could barely be considered a third-rate master. If the other eleven generals were on the same level as Gao Keli, then Song Jiang felt that he could push through without any pressure.

However, to be on the safe side, Song Jiang still reported the news he had just obtained from interrogating the enemy prisoners, and at the same time collected more ships on the Yangtze River.

After hearing Song Jiang's report, Ye Tianlong immediately sent 50,000 horses to support the opponent, 10,000 of which were heavy cavalry.

At the same time, Ye Tianlong also sent twelve masters to help in the battle. Didn't Fang La have some twelve gods from the south of the Yangtze River! He also sent twelve strong generals to Song Jiang to assist in the battle, so that Song Jiang would not suffer at the hands of Fang La's army due to the lack of strong generals.

The twelve masters sent by Ye Tianlong to assist in the battle are Jade Unicorn Lu Junyi, Dadao Guan Sheng, Double Whip Hu Yanzhuo, Flower Monk Lu Zhishen, Double Spear General Dong Ping, Wuyujian Zhang Qing, Pioneer Suo Chao, Golden Gunner Xu Ning, Nine. Wenlong Shijin, sick Weichi Sunli, traveler Wusong and prodigal Yanqing.

Most of these twelve people have recently joined the Qinglong Empire. They are all eager to make meritorious deeds, and all of them have extraordinary skills. They will definitely become Song Jiang's powerful helpers after they arrive.

There were fifty-four Liangshan heroes under Song Jiang, including Zhi Duoxing Wu Yong, Ruyunlong Gongsun Sheng, Thunderbolt Fire Qinming, Xiao Li Guanghuarong, Shenxing Taibao Dai Zong, Red-haired Ghost Liu Tang, Black Whirlwind Li Kui, Unblocked Mu Hong, Winged Tiger Lei Heng, Hunjiang Dragon Li Jun, Standing Tai Sui Ruan Xiaoer, Short-lived Erlang Ruan Xiaowu, Living Yama Ruan Xiaoqi, Disease Guan Suo Yang Xiong, Two-Headed Snake Jie Zhen, Two-tailed Scorpion Jie Bao , the divine machine strategist Zhu Wu, Zhen Sanshan Huang Xin, the master scholar Xiao Rang, the iron-faced Pei Xuan, the moyun-gold-winged Ou Peng, the fire-eyed suanni Deng Fei, the golden-haired tiger Yan Shun, the golden leopard Yang Lin, the divine fortune teller Jiang Jing, Little Wen Hou Lu Fang, Sai Rengui Guo Sheng, Dwarf Tiger Wang Ying, Demon King Fan Rui, Mao Tou Xing Kong Ming, Du Mars Kong Liang, Eight-Armed Nezha Xiang Chong, Flying Great Sage Li Gun, Jade Armed Craftsman Jin Dajian, Iron Flute Immortal Horse Lin, Tong Wei from the Cave, Tong Meng over the River Mirage, Meng Kang with the Jade Flag, Chen Da the Tiger Jumping in the Stream, Yang Chun the White Snake, Zheng Tianshou the White-faced Man, Tao Zongwang the Nine-tailed Turtle, Song Qing the Iron Fan, Iron Fan Mingzi Lehe, Xiaozhelan Mu Chun, Yunli King Kong Song Wan, Touching Heaven Du Qian, Dry Land Hulu Zhugui, Smiling Tiger Zhu Fu, Urging Judge Li Li, Blue-Eyed Tiger Li Yun, General Shi Yong, White Rat Bai Sheng lives with golden retriever Duan Jing.

Among them, except for the wise star Wu Yong, the sage scholar Xiao Rang, and the iron fan Song Qing who stayed at the Liangshan base camp, the remaining fifty-one heroes all followed Song Jiang on the expedition.

The weakest of these heroes are also in the Ming Jin realm, and the strongest, such as Qin Ming and Hua Rong, have the fighting power of innate warriors. Now that they have the twelve generals sent by Ye Tianlong to support them, they are even more powerful in the battle. Strength increased greatly.

Looking at the many masters under his command, Song Jiang's confidence greatly increased, and he immediately crossed the river after spending two days collecting enough ships.

At this time, Lu Shinang saw that Tai Sui God Gao Keli had not sent anyone to send back any information, so he knew that the troops of this group crossing the river had probably been wiped out, and the imperial army might be there at this time. On the other side.

So he immediately prepared his troops for battle, ready for a decisive battle with the army sent by the imperial court to conquer at any time.

And he soon discovered traces of the enemy. According to the report of a small team of scouts he sent out that day, a large fleet was found on the river, and the flag was that of the Qinglong Empire.

So Lu Shinang immediately led the army and rushed over. When he arrived, thousands of enemy troops had already come ashore, and more enemy troops were still coming ashore. It seemed that the enemy's strength was at least six or seven. As many as ten thousand.

In order to prevent more enemy troops from successfully landing, Lu Shinang immediately ordered an attack.

When Song Jiang saw a large number of enemy troops approaching, he quickly ordered the more than 5,000 soldiers who had already landed to form an array on the shore to block the enemy's attack.

Because they had guessed in advance that they might be attacked by the enemy half-crossing, most of the soldiers who landed first were heavy infantry who were good at defense.

At this time, these heavy infantry quickly formed an array on the shore, setting up strict infantry phalanxes. Sharp spears protruded from the formations, flashing with a deadly cold light.

The crossbowmen also quickly got into position, ready to use long-range firepower to support friendly forces.

After Fang La's army entered within two hundred meters, the crossbowmen from the Qinglong Empire began to fire arrows one after another. Even some fishing boats equipped with crossbows began to fire giant crossbow arrows to attack the enemy.

The soldiers under Lu Shinang were not much better equipped than those under Gao Keli. There were not many soldiers with iron armor at all. Therefore, as the rain of arrows continued to fall, Fang La's army suffered heavy losses, leaving behind a large area along the way. corpse.

However, Lu Shinang knew that now was not the time to feel sorry for the casualties of the soldiers, so he continued to urge the soldiers to speed up and drive them back before all the enemy soldiers landed. After entering the shooting range, the archers of Fang La Army fired several waves of arrows and found that the arrows they shot could not hurt the enemy at all, so they gave up archery and prepared to save some energy for melee combat later.

After paying tens of thousands of casualties, the soldiers of Fang La Army finally successfully rushed to the enemy's formation. As a result, before the actual battle, the enemy's formation threw another wave of throwing axes and javelins, knocking down at least 100 people on the spot. A thousand square meters of troops.

"Don't be afraid! There are few officers and men! Come on!" Lu Shinang was in the rear, constantly shouting, asking his soldiers to charge.

And those soldiers also understood that they had to race against time at this time to repel the enemy troops before they all landed on the beach to have a chance of winning, so even if they suffered heavy casualties, they were still charging forward one after another.

Soon, a group of soldiers successfully rushed to the enemy's formation, then raised their spears and stabbed the enemy force hard.

As a result, they discovered that the enemy's spear was much longer than theirs. The spear in their hands was only about three meters long, while the enemy's spear was more than six meters long, which was one-third of the length of their spear. twice as much.

As a result, before most of Fang La's army could attack the enemy, they were turned into honeycombs by the dense forest of guns coming towards them. Occasionally, one or two Fang La soldiers used their dexterity to avoid these thrusting spears. After successfully attacking the enemy, they found that the weapons in their hands could not break through the enemy's armor defense.

This is actually normal. After all, these people at the front of the formation are the elite heavy infantry of the Qinglong Empire. They wear heavy full-body plate armor with an average thickness of five millimeters. To put it bluntly, the defensive power is compared to the early bean wars of the young people. The armor of the car must be thick. Even if you hit it with a rifle, it may not be able to penetrate it, let alone attack with such a cold weapon.

Lu Shinang saw from the rear that his own soldiers were unable to cause any effective damage to the enemy after finally rushing up. He couldn't help but become anxious. Then he led a group of his generals to attack in person.

He has the remaining eleven people from the Jiangnan Twelve Gods, and this lineup looks quite strong.

Therefore, Song Jiang immediately noticed this group of people. After all, this group of people were all riding war horses and wearing iron armor. It was difficult not to be noticed!

So Song Jiang immediately sent eighteen generals to intercept this group of enemy generals. In addition to the twelve people supported by Ye Tianlong, these eighteen generals also include Thunderbolt Fire Qin Ming, Xiao Li Guanghua Rong, Bu Zha Mu Hong, Winged Tiger Lei Heng and Zhen Sanshan Huang Xin.

In addition, Song Jiang asked Li Kui, Liu Tang, Xiang Chong, Li Gun and others to organize the infantry who had just disembarked into an assault force. Once the enemy showed a weakness, he would send this force to give the enemy a final blow.

Since his martial arts skills were mediocre, Song Jiang also arranged two bodyguards around him, namely Xiao Wenhou Lu Fang and Sai Rengui Guo Sheng. The two men were wearing golden Mingguang armor, holding Fangtian painted halberds, and riding tall horses. They looked very mighty.

With these two bodyguards as powerful as door gods protecting him, Song Jiang felt more confident. He raised the telescope in his hand and began to check the specific battle situation ahead, mainly looking at the victory or defeat of the general.

At this time, the jade unicorn Lu Junyi, holding a steel gun, took the lead and stabbed the enemy general who was charging in front of him.

Lu Shinang's weapon was a snake spear, and his martial arts skills were pretty good. Unfortunately, he met Lu Junyi, and after just five or six moves with him, he immediately felt something was wrong.

Lu Shinang, who knew that he was no match for the other party, immediately wanted to run away. However, at this time, Qin Ming, the thunderbolt fire, also arrived quickly and hit Lu Shinang with a stick on his right shoulder, causing him to let out a cry of pain. With a shrill scream, the snake spear in his hand fell to the ground.

The Twelve Gods of Jiangnan behind him were still trying to come to the rescue, but Lu Junyi had already thrust out a spear, piercing Lu Shinang's neck, killing the general of Fang La Army on the spot.

When the twelve gods from the south of the Yangtze River saw their general being killed, they were all furious. They rushed forward with weapons in hand and surrounded Lu Junyi and Qin Ming to fight.

Faced with the siege of eleven fierce enemy generals, Lu Junyi did not panic at all. The steel gun in his hand danced airtight, blocking all the enemy generals' attacks.

Compared with Lu Junyi's calmness, Qin Ming seemed to be struggling at this time. The weapon Qin Ming used was a mace, which naturally cannot be wielded as quickly as a spear. This also makes its attack power very high, but its defense power is not very good. Okay, so it often suffers in the hands of first-class masters. However, if he encounters less powerful enemy generals, he can often defeat them within a few moves.

Fortunately, Qin Ming did not fight alone this time. Soon Dadao Guan Sheng and Hua Monk Lu Zhishen also felt that with a wave of the Yanyue Sword and Zen Staff in their hands, they each helped Qin Ming stop two enemy generals. But the more powerful ones were Xiao Li Guanghuarong and Wu Yujian Zhang Qing. One of them shot a cold arrow from behind, and the other silently waved his hand and threw a locust stone, killing one of them each. Enemy general.
