Chapter 76: Falling Eagle



This is fatal.

Yang Yi Zhong rushed forward regardless of everything, but after only two or three rounds, the commander of the imperial guard was stabbed in the shoulder, fell off his horse, and was then dragged away in a panic by his subordinates.

At this moment, something even more terrifying happened. When they were about a hundred steps away, Wanyan Loushi did not continue the attack. The hundreds of subordinates behind him suddenly dispersed and most of them rushed in all directions... Then, this famous Jurchen general took a large Jurchen bow from the horse's butt behind him, put a heavy Jurchen arrow on it, and drew the bow and aimed the arrow at Zhao Jiu who was a hundred steps away.

Zhao Jiu's hair stood on end, but he did not dodge or evade the exclamations of several close ministers. Instead, he bent his bow and drew his arrow!

He held his breath, calculated the distance, raised the arrow slightly as he usually did when hunting, and then quickly aimed at the opponent... Zhao Guanjia, who was very familiar with bows and arrows, knew that his bow was faster to bend and easier to aim.

Lou Shi grinned at Zhao Jiu's bow and arrow and adjusted it calmly. However, Zhao Guanjia, who was recognized as a master in archery, was startled by the other party's smile and shot an arrow first.

The arrow flew out suddenly and went off target, but the bow and arrow in Lou Shi's hand was not affected at all.

For a moment, the official felt as if he had fallen into an icy cave.

But at this moment, an arrow shot out from a bow that Zhao Jiu was very familiar with and hit Lou Shi's arm from behind!

Lou Shi's horse shook, and the heavy arrow in his hand missed the target.

The crowd was excited.

But the next moment, Lou Shi broke the arrow on his left arm in public, just glanced at Qu Da behind him, threw down the bow and arrow, replaced it with a spear, and then rushed forward.

The few dozen remaining guards of his army used the same old tricks again, risking their lives and mounts to break open a path for their leader.

Not only that, the scene just now had already stunned many of the Banzhi formation, and Lou Shi actually took this opportunity to break into the deeper Banzhi formation, only a few dozen steps away from Zhao Jiu.

Emperor Zhao tried to bend the bow again, but his hands were shaking.

You must know that the battlefield is in chaos right now. The Jin cavalry and the Song infantry are fighting separately. Within a short distance, one person can defeat an entire country!

"Don't panic, show me which room is Lou's!"

Qu Duan bent his bow again and tried to shoot, but since Lou Shi had changed his gun and was galloping, he couldn't aim at all, and was panicked. But at this moment, a rider came from behind, with a bronze face and an iron helmet, holding a hard bow. Just by hearing the voice, Qu Duan knew who it was, and then he quickly dropped his bow and pointed at Lou Shi.

The man who came was none other than Han Shizhong, a brave general of the imperial family, who had abandoned his subordinates who were fighting fiercely in the rear and rode his horse directly to come to the rescue. Han Liangchen had noticed something was wrong here from afar, and came over with a bow in both hands. When he saw Qu Duan's instructions, he squeezed his legs together, and the warhorse under him neighed, stopped suddenly, and stood up half its body.

Han Shizhong simply turned around on his stopped horse and shot an arrow with all his might. The arrow was worth a thousand gold coins and could defeat ten thousand soldiers. The arrow hit the head of the horse under Lou Shi's crotch!

The warhorse under Lou Shi's crotch collapsed before he could even neigh, and the entire Lou Shi was overturned with it! Han Shizhong is always Han Shizhong! For Zhao Jiu, you can always trust him!

The guards on both sides, the Jurchen cavalry behind them, and other Song troops fighting in the surroundings all rushed towards this place.

Zhao Jiu saw clearly that when Ban Zhi was fighting with Lou Shi's troops around him, Lou Shi had already tried to stand up, but unexpectedly a young general came riding up from behind Qu Duan and shot an arrow right under Lou Shi's armpit, causing him to fall down again.

Seeing this, the flag bearer who wanted to help Lou Shi threw down the five-colored sun flag and turned around to fight with the approaching general. At this moment, another Song army leader holding a long axe took advantage of the opportunity and walked up to Lou Shi, who could not get up easily, and raised the axe to chop him. Lou Shi reached for something at his waist, but found nothing. Then the axe fell down and hit Lou Shi's arm.

Wanyan Loushi lost one arm on the spot.

There was a burst of wild shouting all around, and it was hard to tell whether it was cheering or shouting in surprise.

The Song army soldier kept swinging his axe, turned around and knocked a Jin soldier away, then turned around again and swung his axe again, directly chopping off Lou Shi's head.

Having obtained Lou Shi's life, the captain threw down his axe, picked up Lou Shi's head, held it high, and shouted a name to Zhao Jiu that made the official dazed and distracted: "Zhang Yongzhen! Official! Today I..."

Before he could finish his words, in the deafening battlefield, a Jin cavalryman had already approached. He was the flag bearer who had just abandoned the flag. He ignored the pursuers behind him, jumped off his horse, crawled over, picked up the long axe on the ground, and chopped it down with all his might from the back of the neck of the Song army soldier who was only concerned with saying something to Zhao Jiu!

After one blow of the axe, Lou Shi's head fell down. Zhao Jiu did not look at it again. Instead, the head of the Song army captain was separated from the helmet in the air, revealing a face with only one ear and a happy expression.

But Zhao Jiu couldn't remember who this person with obvious features was.

The flag bearer of Lou Shi was quickly killed by Ban Zhi, and the head of Lou Shi was snatched by the young general who was chasing him, and then lifted high with a long spear. However, the cavalry of the central army of the Jin army in front of the camp did not disintegrate, but instantly became murderous. Thousands of Jurchen cavalry fought hard regardless of life and death, and some even tried to attack the dragon flag again to take back the head.

But soon, as another cavalry unit fighting with Han Shizhong's reinforcements in the east took the initiative to move northward to join forces with Heza Meng'an to break through Zhang Xian's Beiwei Army and leave the battlefield, the other Heza Meng'an also fled eastward in panic, attracting Han Shizhong's attention and blockade... In short, the Jin army in front of the camp finally gradually fell into retreat and a certain degree of disintegration.

This battle was won after all.

"Officials!"

Scholar Kobayashi, who was wearing soft armor, suddenly spoke.

"What?"

Zhao Jiu, who was trying to find something ahead, responded blankly.
