    "Empire Hegemony" Chapter 891

    The Qinghe army formed a tight formation, while the rebels launched a fierce attack like a surging tide.

    On the noisy battlefield, countless arrows flew out, and the charging rebels fell in pieces.

    However, amidst the yelling and cursing of the rebel officers, the rebel soldiers did not dare to stop. They bit the bullet and charged forward on countless blood and corpses.

    The howling arrows passed over the heads of the rebels continuously, piercing through the companions behind them, bringing out a rain of blood.

    However, the rebel army still rushed forward screaming, and soon collided with the mountain-heavy shield wall of the Qinghe army.

    Just like a sea wave hitting a solid dam, a layer of blood mist appeared on the front of the battle.

    "Steady!"

    "Steady!"

    Facing the ferocious impact force, the Qinghe army's front line was also under tremendous pressure, and the shield wall they formed was also squeezed and kept retreating.

    The rebel soldiers were blocked by the shield wall. They waved the weapons in their hands and kept slashing forward.

    Some unlucky brothers from the Qinghe army were chopped off immediately, but as soon as he arrived, the brothers behind him immediately replaced them without saying a word, maintaining the integrity of the shield wall.

    Behind the shield wall of the Qinghe Army, countless brothers armed with spears stabbed forward. The spears poked bloody holes in the rebels in front of the shield wall, and the rebels kept screaming and falling down.

    The archers of the Qinghe Army kept shooting. The arrows didn't even need to be aimed, and each arrow could kill a rebel.

    Although the rebels were killed with corpses strewn all over the field, their numbers were too many, as if they could never be killed.

    Seeing those rebel troops continuously fighting, Yuan Jie, the head of the army, also had a particularly dignified expression.

    "Cavalry attack!"

    Seeing that the rebels were squeezing their infantry formations, they were a little bit unstoppable, so Yuan Jie had to use the cavalry in advance.

    The Thirteenth Banner Regiment of the Cavalry was already eager to try. After they received the order to attack, they quickly formed an attack formation, and cut into the rebel formation from the oblique thorns.

    The cavalry armed with lances and sabers were like sharp knives. Wherever they passed, the rebels were strangled and turned into flesh and blood, and there was no single enemy.

    On the road after the cavalry unit charged, there seemed to be a vacuum in the ranks of the rebels, and there were bones and flesh everywhere.

    However, not long after the cavalry troops rushed over, the continuous rebels filled these blank areas again.

    The cavalry brothers of the Thirteenth Banner Regiment rampaged through the ranks of the rebels, one after another the rebel troops stepped forward, trying to surround them and slow down their horses.

    Some rebel troops even blocked their way with flesh and blood, trying to surround the cavalry.

    Lei Ming, the deputy commander in charge of commanding the cavalry, knew that once the cavalry fell into the vast sea of ??people, they would become living targets, so they fought desperately to disperse the rebels along the way.

    The rebel army rushed forward continuously, turning the area of ??more than ten miles into a battlefield for fighting.

    The right marshal of the rebel army saw his soldiers and horses being killed to the point of blood, but his facial expression did not change at all, and his coldness made people feel frightened, as if the lives of these rebels were worthless.

    "Counterattack!"

    Seeing the blood of the rebel troops killed by the cavalry troops flowed into rivers, the head of the army, Yuan Jie, ordered the infantry troops to launch a counterattack.

    The infantry with strong combat effectiveness held their spears flat. They pushed forward in a neat formation, slashing horizontally and vertically. The rebels suffered a large number of casualties every moment.

    "Master Legion, there are rebels coming up from the flank!"

    However, when Yuan Jie and the others counterattacked head-on, another rebel army rushed up from the flank.

    If Yuan Jie and the others continued to advance, they might fall into the siege of the rebels, and they would have to stop counterattacking and hold their ground firmly.

    As they stopped counterattacking, the rebels who had just been repelled were quickly reorganized and rushed forward fiercely again.

    Yuan Jie and their Third Field Army Corps fell into a brutal war of attrition with the rebels on the battlefield outside Jingyang Mansion.

    Relying on the huge crowd tactics, the rebels made it impossible for the Third Field Army of the Qinghe Army to display their strength at all.

    If it weren't for the cavalry units rushing into the ranks of the rebels from time to time, disrupting their offensive formation, the infantry alone would have fallen into the siege of the rebels.?.

    The Qinghe Army's Third Field Army Corps led by Yuan Jie fought repeatedly with the rebels for two days. The battlefield has become a sea of ??corpses and blood, with stumps, broken battle flags and broken weapons everywhere.

    Although the Third Field Army of the Qinghe Army dealt heavy damage to the rebels, their own losses were not small.

    Although these losses are within the tolerable range, they are still huge losses for the Qinghe Army.

    You must know that the Qinghe Army has always followed the route of elite soldiers, and every soldier of them is quite precious.

    But now they are trapped in the exhaustion of the human sea tactics against the rebels, but if they don't fight, the rebels may continue to advance westward, and they have to fight the rebels here.

    When the Third Corps of the Qinghe Army fought fiercely with the rebels in Jingyang Mansion, Chen Ziang, the general of the Qinghe Army, also led more than a thousand cavalry in an emergency, and rushed to the battlefield day and night.

    After nightfall, as soon as Chen Ziang entered the battlefield, he smelled a strong smell of blood in the air.

    Yuan Jie, the head of the Third Army, had already learned that Chen Ziang was coming, so he took the deputy head of the army Lei Ming, Han Feng and others were already waiting outside the gate.

    They didn't wait long before they saw a group of cavalry holding torches approaching rapidly in the darkness in the distance, and the vigilant scout rangers also rode up to meet them.

    Not long after, Chen Ziang arrived at Yuanmen surrounded by a thousand cavalry guards.

    "I've seen the handsome man!"

    Seeing Chen Ziang's arrival, Yuan Jie and others stood up and saluted one after another.

    "Everyone has worked hard."

    Chen Ziang turned over and looked around sharply. Seeing that everyone was there, he went forward to shake hands with them one by one.

    Yuan Jie and the others also welcomed Chen Ziang into the Chinese army tent, and soon the hot meals were delivered to the table.

    "How is the battle going?"

    Hundreds of thousands of rebels swarmed in. Chen Ziang rushed to the battlefield day and night, and he wanted to know the battle situation at the first time.

    After Yuan Jie and the others looked at each other, the dignified Yuan Jie stood up and gave a brief report on the battle situation to Chen Ziang.

    "What, we lost more than 30,000 people in a few days of fighting?"

    When he heard that the Third Field Army had lost more than 30,000 people in a few days, Chen Ziang also had a very ugly expression.

    "Marshal, many of them are the losses of the temporarily organized 16th Banner Regiment. They have withstood the first wave of rebel attacks." Yuan Jie explained.

    "Even though most of them are the losses of the temporary 16th Banner Regiment, our battle losses are still too much."

    You must know that the Qinghe Army is following the route of elite soldiers, with a strength of 30,000 troops, that is more than an entire flag regiment.

    "Although our losses are not small, the casualties of the rebels are at least two or three times that of ours."

    Seeing that Chen Ziang looked a little unhappy, Lei Ming, the deputy army commander, also stood up to smooth things over and explain.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
