Chapter 263: Crazy Bloody Battle
Jiang Dan walked back and forth in the barracks, his hands clasped behind his back.
The chaotic footsteps showed the restlessness in his heart.
Hearing the order issued by General Chen Fan in the main general's camp just now, Jiang Dan was not a fool, and naturally heard how cruel this battle plan was.
With the strength of the whole army, you must break through the camp where Guo Long's army is located in one fell swoop.
This is undoubtedly to say to the soldiers, "In this battle, you are ready to die in the line of duty."
Because basically after this battle, few of you will survive.
It was completely undefended, and he didn't care about the reinforcements of Duan Minbu, who came after hearing the news.
It can be seen that the top has already made up its mind to tear a hole in the blockade of the 100,000 mountains.
However, this is completely torn with human life.
Perhaps, after this tough battle is fought, there may be only more than 400 people left in the front army of more than 4,000.
"Alas!" Jiang Dan sighed heavily.
He seemed to have seen the scene of the river of blood at that time, but he had to obey the orders of his superiors.
"I hope there will be fewer deaths. Jiang Dan said in his heart.
After all, they are all soldiers brought out by themselves, so if you can leave a few more, you can leave a few more.
There was less than half an hour before the army set out, and all the men and horses, from the officers and captains, down to the soldiers and horses.
All armed to the teeth, I want to sharpen the teeth in my mouth as sharp as the saber in my hand.
The next tough battle, these soldiers know it in their hearts.
Born to die, this is the only step that can be taken.
Time passed quickly, and not long after, a military horn sounded.
All the assembled teams, under the orders of the commanders, marched in the direction where Guo Long's troops were located.
At this time, most of the scouts sent by Guo Long had been cleaned up one by one by the assassins sent by Chen Fan.
Only a few people ran back with injuries, but they were injured, how could they run fast.
By the time Guo Long reacted, Chen Fan's army had already appeared in Guo Long's sight.
"It's best that Guo Long hasn't reacted yet, and the defense line is broken by us. Chen Fan said secretly.
There is no city in the 100,000 mountains, and for many years, the 100,000 mountains and Pang Feijun have been attacking and defending with the help of natural geographical advantages.
"Quick! give me full speed forward!" Chen Fan said in a low voice, and the speed of the army was a little faster.
Guo Long sat on the chair in the tent, lying comfortably with his eyes closed.
In his mind, Chen Fan would not be stupid enough to take the initiative to provoke him and Duan Min.
Although it was a battle between the two armies, in fact, as long as Chen Fan moved, he would only suffer losses.
That's why Guo Long dared to sit lazily in the army, he believed that Chen Fan was not that kind of fool.
"Report, report to your lordship!"
A hurried announcement sounded, and a herald hurried into the camp from the outside.
"What's the matter, say it slowly. ”
Guo Long opened his eyes and looked at the herald, but his body was still leaning on the back of the chair and did not move.
"Report to my lord, Chen Fanjun poured out of the nest, and now he is less than a few miles away from the headquarters!"
The herald swallowed a mouthful of saliva and said with a strong grip on his inner feelings.
"What?" Guo Long was a little surprised at this time, and his body sat up straight all of a sudden.
"You said that Chen Fan came out of the nest and came to me?"
"It's bad!" Guo Long is not an ordinary person, after a short shock, he immediately reacted, what is Chen Fan going to do.
"This old boy wants to eat my place, tear a hole from me, and make room for his master!"
Guo Long stood up, his right hand clenched into a fist and hammered heavily into the palm of his left hand.
"Niang Xipi, dare to take advantage of Lao Tzu. Guo Long spat hard at the ground and said to the herald.
"Notify all departments to enter the battle state, and send someone to notify Duan Min, so that he can come over and attack Chen Fan as quickly as possible!"
"Yes!" the herald ordered to go out.
Guo Long also walked out of the camp quickly, and at the same time, a set of armor appeared on his body, and he didn't know when he held a big knife in his hand.
To the east from the mouth of the canyon is where Guo Long is located, a high slope with many low hills crisscrossed by each other.
Geographically, it's a good place to defend.
Out of this place, behind it is a rare plain terrain in the 100,000 mountains.
It is dozens of miles longitudinal and horizontal, surrounded by mountains on both sides, and faces water on one side, which is an excellent place for the army to be stationed.
Chen Fan's purpose is this, but before that, he has to fight a flesh-and-blood battle with Guo Long.
After driving Guo Long away, he Chen Fan can attack and retreat.
Moreover, the follow-up army of 10,000 people pressed over, even if Guo Long and Duan Min brought another 2,000 people, it would be useless.
"Charge!"
Chen Fan waved his sword at the camps that appeared in front of him and shouted.
The soldiers under his command were also excited, and the cavalry took the brunt of the brunt with their weapons and roared towards the enemy camp.
"Shoot the arrows!"
Guo Long stood at the height of the first line and commanded, and suddenly the arrows released by the hundreds of archers formed a dark cloud and pressed down towards the cavalry in front.
The sound of metal colliding violently sounded, and those cavalrymen in strong armor were scraped countless sparks by arrows under the rain of arrows from Guo Longjun's arrows.
Under the shroud of darkness, it looks particularly dazzling.
Under the first wave of arrow rain attacks, Chen Fan's 1,000 cavalry did not fall much.
Even if they fell, they were not injured much, and very few really lost their ability to fight.
However, Guo Long never thought of relying on the rain of arrows from a hundred archers. can make Chen Fan's cavalry suffer great losses.
A thousand well-armed cavalry, with only a hundred archers, organized an offensive, but I am afraid that the archers will shoot arrows with bows and arrows until they are exhausted to death.
The horses have been placed a mile outside the camp, looking at this dense number of horses, it will definitely make Chen Fan's 1,000 cavalry momentum frustrated for a while.
Guo Long never thought that he could let Chen Fan's cavalry go back by relying on this means.
All he wanted was to knock out the momentum of Chen Fan's cavalry, and it was enough.
If the first wave of cavalry charges does not get the desired result, then the stamina will become less and less, and it will become easier and easier to deal with.
Cavalry that is not moving at high speed has no advantage to speak of, and it is too easy to deal with.
Rumble!
The war horse and the rejection horse collided violently, and only a wail of the war horse could be heard, and the cavalry on his back was thrown out because of the impact force.
The cavalryman fell to the ground and quickly rolled over, and was about to take out his weapon, but he heard many snorts, and a cold feeling penetrated his body.
The moment the cavalry rushed into the horse and was thrown out of the ground by the impact, Guo Long's army took advantage of the fact that they did not stand up, and took out their spears and broadswords.
He slashed them down and killed them.
"General, our cavalry has broken through the obstacles laid by the enemy, and the army can move. A general said to Chen Fan.
"Well, I think the cavalry also suffered heavy losses. Chen Fan nodded.
"But it's worth it, I need a clean battlefield, messy and something. ”
"General, the scout has come to report that the enemy's Duan Min Department has begun to move. Another general said.
"Don't worry about him, Duan Min still needs some kung fu when he comes, and when he arrives, the general will also arrive. What we have to do is to open up the situation for the general and take down the environment where the army can play better. ”
"The last general obeys!" said the generals in unison.
Chen Fan squinted his eyes and looked ahead, he knew what a difficult battle would be next.
Chen Fan was looking at the battlefield, and Guo Long was also looking at the battlefield.
Yang Bin went back and went back to the rear.
This front matter is all in charge of himself and Duan Min.
The expedited military document has already been sent to Duan Min's side, and presumably now Duan Min has also left.
As long as he can't hold on and hold on to the situation, when Duan Min and the army arrive, Chen Fan will have a pot to drink at that time.
Looking at the corpses of the war horses on the battlefield in front of him, as well as the corpses of the cavalry who had been stabbed several times or slashed several times, Guo Long actually felt a little envious.
Cavalry, what a class of extravagance.
This kind of thing is only available to the Human Emperor, the Beast Emperor and the Spirit Monarch, and these three guys can have it.
The cavalry raised elsewhere either had silver-like wax spearheads, or they simply did not have the conditions for such training.
Even if 100,000 mountains want to raise cavalry, they don't have that condition.
Cavalry training requires a vast plain field, and there are only a few plains in the 100,000 mountains, and at most two or three thousand cavalry can be trained.
Moreover, what is the use of training cavalry in 100,000 mountains?
Let horses run in the mountains?
The horses in the Three Realms are much stronger than the horses raised by mortals, and they can be said to be spirit beasts.
But you can't travel long distances and gallop through the mountains like monkeys.
Therefore, 100,000 mountains have cultivated a cavalry, this kind of thing can be thought about, and there is no need to take it too seriously.
But there is one thing to say, Guo Long thought to himself, if he can have a cavalry today.
Not too much, three hundred is enough.
If he had 300 cavalry, the cavalry that had retreated in front of the swords and axes of his heavy armor just now would not have retreated so chicly.
Chen Fan charged for the first time and pushed the battlefield forward by more than two hundred feet.
As soon as the momentum of the cavalry charge passed, Chen Fan let the thousand cavalry retreat, because the heavy armor soldiers that the 100,000 mountains had always used appeared.
No matter how brave the cavalry is, these heavily armored soldiers on the opposite side, who are heavily armed and in iron boxes from head to toe, will not take advantage of it.
The battlefield advanced more than 200 feet, and the distance between the two armies in a straight line was only less than 100 paces.
At a distance of 100 paces, the cavalry naturally could not exert its maximum power.
Chen Fan gave an order, and the cavalry brigade, which had lost 200 people, retreated and replaced it with a regular infantry attack.
Of the original army of 5,000 people, 1,000 were cavalry, and the remaining 4,000 were all white-armored infantry troops.
The ones that were lost before were all infantry troops.
There are still more than 3,000 infantry troops in total, and at present, these more than 3,000 infantry troops are forming battle platoons.
The shiny white armor on their bodies still shone brightly even in the dark night.
"Whole army, attack!" Chen Fan Le Ma stopped at the front of the army.
He shouted, with a sword groan as his sword unsheathed.
The three thousand white armor behind him shouted in unison, and the voices of the three thousand people shook everyone's hearts like rolling thunder.
The three thousand white armor turned into three thousand surges and rushed towards Guo Long's troops in front.
"Heavy armor!" Guo Long shouted.
Suddenly, three hundred heavily armored soldiers, one by one, stood at the forefront with large shields in their hands.
They were divided into two rows, one in front and two in the back, forming a dog-like formation.
Such an array is the easiest to defend against the onslaught of the enemy.
After the three hundred heavily armored soldiers were six hundred heavily armed infantry.
They were armed with spears and knives, and looked at the enemy in front of them with solemn faces.
Three......
Two......
One!
The three thousand white-armored troops finally ran into Guo Long's troops.
The heavy armor soldiers bore the brunt of the attack, and as soon as the two armies met, several weapons beckoned up on the heavy armor soldiers.
"Resist!" Guo Long said with joy on his face.
Still with the help of the narrow terrain, the three thousand white-armored troops could only put on a formation of about the same size as their own 1,000 men and horses.
In this way, the two armies attacked, and the first wave of the charge of the white armor army could make their three hundred heavy armor resist well.
The three hundred heavy armor resisted the most violent impact, and the six hundred infantry troops behind had a moment to breathe, so that they could better exert their combat effectiveness.
"Kill!"
"Kill!"
For a while, the shouts of killing were endless.
Flesh and blood flew everywhere on the battlefield.
The glittering white armor was covered with a layer of blood, and the helmets of the heavy armorers, which had only a gap, were also stained with blood.
The line of handover between the two armies of the Baijia Army and Guo Longjun can be seen that the soldiers on both sides are pouring up one after another.
The white armor army was white, and Guo Long's soldiers were all wearing black.
The line between black and white is a vivid blood red.
"Knock! knock!"
The drums of war sounded, and the White Armor retreated like a tide, leaving corpses all over the ground.
Guo Longjun also collected troops from Mingjin, and also on the battlefield on their side, there were also corpses all over the field.
In the first confrontation between the two armies, Chen Fan lost a full 1,000 Baijia infantry troops.
And Guo Long is not comfortable, he has few people, half of the 300 heavy armor soldiers have fallen, and there are only about 400 people left in the 600 infantry army.
With the addition of a hundred archers, Guo Long had less than 700 men and horses on hand.
On Chen Fan's side, there were 800 cavalry and 2,000 infantry troops.
Seven hundred against two thousand eight, even if eight hundred cavalry is useless, a fool can see who has the advantage.
Guo Long collected his troops and returned to the camp, the big camp was above, and he condescended not to go to the field.
Relying on the 700 soldiers at hand, coupled with the advantage of geographical advantages, it is still able to defend it.
No matter how good Chen Fan is, he can't let his cavalry rush uphill to force a charge, right?
Even if the two thousand white-armored troops are brave, climbing the slope consumes true qi, wouldn't it be better for their own people to work at ease?
In short, Guo Long made up his mind.
As long as Duan Min's troops have not yet arrived, he will rely on the terrain and will definitely not take the initiative to engage in battle.
"Bastard!" Chen Fan, who was sitting on the horse, couldn't help but scold in a low voice when he saw that Guo Long couldn't hold on.
In the battle just now, the infantry lost a full 1,000 men.
Although the most difficult heavy armor soldiers, they also lost half.
However, as soon as the casualty ratio of the two sides was converted, there were actually three people on their side who fought to the death of the opposite one.
How can Chen Fan's face look good.
