    When the time agreed with Murong Sanzang's army came, Huang Mingyuan led his generals to observe the enemy's situation on the other side of Mi'e River.

    It is summer at this time, and the riverbed of Mi'e River is about ten feet (forty to fifty meters) wide, and the deepest part is about two feet.  The current is fast and dangerous.

    Although Huang Mingyuan was well prepared, the grassland trees were scarce, and the Sui army only made more than a hundred rafts in total.  Fearing that these dry old trees would be useless, the Sui army hung sheepskin bags on the rafts to cross the river.

    The Sui army crossed the river with no more than a thousand people at a time.

    In order to form combat effectiveness as soon as possible after crossing the river, Huang Mingyuan arranged for Jiao Fangwei to lead more than a thousand spearmen to cross the river for the first time and build a defensive position on the other side of the river.

    Once the spear formation is established, even if the Turks attack, they will not be able to break through the Sui army's formation in a short period of time.  These spear formations can cover the army's crossing of the river.

    Huang Mingliao led the Fengzhou cavalry and then crossed the river to help the army open the way for the Turks to block the attack.

    At night, the moon was dark and the wind was high, and there was no sign of the other side.  Only the dim light of the fire showed traces of the presence of the Turks on the opposite side.

    Around half past midnight, the sound of fighting finally came from the opposite side, followed by the sky-high firelight, illuminating the roaring Mi'e River.

    Huang Mingyuan stood on a platform about a hundred steps away from the shore, looking quietly at the other side. No matter how fierce the fighting on the other side was, he was indifferent.  The generals gathered around him, waiting anxiously.

    At this time, the generals of the Fengzhou Clan, whether they had served under him or not, all knew his habits.  Although everyone was anxious in their hearts, no one dared to speak.

    But Duan Wenzhen on the side couldn't wait any longer. The other side had obviously entered a stalemate stage and needed Huang Mingyuan's support across the river.

    "General Huang, are you ordering the soldiers to cross the river?"

    Huang Mingyuan's expression remained unchanged, he looked at the other side seriously and said, "Wait a moment."

    Duan Wenzhen wanted to say something else, but was dissuaded by his subordinates.

    Duan Wenzhen knew very well that Huang Mingyuan's commanding ability was superb and he was the commander-in-chief, so he could not question Huang Mingyuan's command at this time.  I can only stay aside and wait anxiously.

    When it was just an ugly, the fire on the opposite side was much smaller, and the shouting and killing were much smaller.  It can be seen that troops on the opposite side have been detached to block the Sui army from the west.

    At this time, Huang Mingyuan, who had been standing quietly, suddenly ordered: "Organize to cross the river."

    "No!"

    The generals became energetic, each received military orders, and immediately prepared their own preparations.

    Jiao Fangwei carried a big halberd and led several soldiers to jump onto a raft first.  Immediately, the boatman punted the boat and rushed to the other side.

    More than a thousand spearmen in the vanguard, each holding a spear, squatted on the raft.  Except one main boatman controls the direction.  The others each held a small oar and paddled forward.

    The river roared and the raft floated.  The stirred up river splashed the soldiers' faces.

    In order to prevent the raft from being washed away by the rapids before entering the water, a rope was tied under the raft to the shore.  But the soldiers had no protection, and some were unstable and fell into the water from time to time.

    At this time, the raft rushed to the other side in just a cup of tea, less than twenty feet away.  Jiao Fangwei, who was driving at the front, did not wait for the raft to stop safely before jumping to the shore.

    Hundreds of people landed on the shore. Surprisingly, there was no Turkic defense on the shore.

    Jiao Fangwei was overjoyed, and immediately arranged for everyone to arrange a formation to form a spear array against the enemy, and then slowly advanced.  Hold on to the river bank and wait for the follow-up troops of the Sui army behind them to arrive.

    At this time, some Hu riders finally discovered something unusual on the shore, and dozens of riders came roaring towards us.

    Jiao Fangwei rushed to the front with a big halberd. One halberd swept across and cut off the legs of Hu Qi's horse. The other halberd did not wait for the opponent to fall and had already penetrated the opponent's abdomen.

    "Raise the spear and stab!"

    Dozens of cavalry collided with a spear formation composed of more than a thousand infantrymen. The situation was simply unimaginable.  The Turkic cavalry roared uncontrollably and bumped into their spears one after another. The men and horses were riddled with holes and died wailing.

    "Kill them all!"

    The Sui army swarmed forward and wiped out these Turkic cavalry.

    Soon more Turkic cavalry discovered the fighting here and rushed towards the river bank.

    At the same time, the second batch of troops crossing the river had already landed. In addition to the 300 fully armed Mo Daoshou, there were also more than 100 Huang Mingliao's cavalry.

    This wave of crossing the river has ruined a big thing.  There can only be a few fully armed swordsmen or cavalry on each raft, and even Huang Mingyuan feels distressed if he falls into the water.

      It is more difficult for horses to cross the river than for people. It took a long time but only more than a hundred horses crossed the river.  However, in order to prevent the opponent from attacking the two wings of the infantry position, the cavalry could only be deployed at the forefront to cross the river.

    The arrival of Mo Daoshou and the cavalry finally completed Jiao Fangwei's position.  Then there was a group of archers and crossbowmen in the last ship responsible for supporting the army.

    The army put their lives on the line and fought with their last legs.  At this time, infinite power burst out.

    Seeing Mo Dao Shou taking up position behind the Spear Man, Jiao Fangwei ordered the square formation to be divided into two and move to both sides.

    The Turkic cavalry immediately entered the gap.  They prepared to pursue the victory and tear apart the Sui army's spear formation, but they soon discovered that this was not a clarion call for victory, but a trap for the Sui army.

    Behind the spearman who dodged was a troop covered in armor.  These iron men moved forward slowly, slashing their swords hard at the charging Hu Qi.

    ?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? ??

    These demons and ghosts stepped on the corpse and moved forward slowly.  With each swing and withdrawal, a large number of people and horses were killed.  Many Hu Qi who had never seen Mo Dao soldiers were frightened. They dropped their swords and bows and fled to the rear wailing.

    The crossbowmen of the Sui army in the rear had already come ashore. They immediately raised their bows and set arrows. An overwhelming barrage of arrows fell on the Turkic cavalry formation, pinning countless men and horses to death.

    Huang Mingliao's cavalry has also bypassed the two wings of the military formation and crashed into the Turkic military formation on the side of Hu Qi.  Huang Mingliao's cavalry were in twos and threes, each forming a small cone formation and converging into a large cone formation. Using Huang Mingliao as an arrow, they tore toward the inside of the opened hole.

    ?? Huang Ming and Liao whips were all deployed, but if a man or horse hit him, his body would be shattered into pieces.

    Seeing Huang Mingliao's bravery, the Turks surrounded him with dozens of scimitars, trying to defeat the few with more.  Huang Mingliao's horse was long and he had already arrived in front of his opponent.  With the help of horse power, Huang Mingliao smashed his big spear on a Hu Qi who was close to him, then held the spear in one hand and swept over.

    The Hu Qi in front was caught off guard and blocked it with a wave of his sword.  The tip of Huang Mingliao's spear had already touched the heads of the horses and horses, and the Hu riders were swept off their horses one after another.  Huang Mingliao drew his spear across half an arc in an instant, and no one in front of him was there.  And by retracting the long spear, the other hand held the head of the spear and lifted it forward again.

    Not long after, Huang Mingliao, whose eyes were red with blood, could no longer see the people in front of him.  Turning back to look at the subordinates who were chasing after him, Huang Mingliao led more than a hundred cavalry to kill the Hu cavalry formation.  Everyone pulled up their horses and turned around. Huang Mingliao rushed back with his spear, stabbing left and right, going back and forth like flying.  He also fought among the Turks.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
