Chapter 0072 Night Battle 03
The battlefield was silent.
The next moment, the storm and clouds burst out.
Just when all the enlightened soldiers thought that the enemy troops on both sides of the passage had been wiped out, a total of 2,000 soldiers of the Ba army poured out on both sides of the passage.
They were the archers on the top of the hill who, after running out of arrows, descended with the intention of launching a surprise attack on the enlightened army in the passage.
This group of archers was known for their riding and archery skills, and their combat strength on foot was far inferior to the previous 5,000 elite soldiers, and only a surprise attack could inflict maximum damage on the enemy.
But seeing that a thousand archers on the left and right sides were divided into five groups, each group of two hundred, quietly entered the attack position, and waited for the order.
Woo!
When the attack was ordered, a group of 200 people on the left and right jumped out in unison like arrows from the string, aiming at the enemy troops they had locked onto, and launched a fierce attack.
Poof!
Two hundred on the left and right, a total of four hundred enlightened soldiers fell.
The enlightened soldier woke up and fought back.
Poof!
Poof!
Another four hundred enlightened soldiers fell.
At the same time, a total of four hundred archers fell.
With one for two, this group of archers with poor combat strength fought in a simple and direct way, fighting for their lives.
The next moment, the next group of archers killed.
Fall, four hundred for one hundred and eight!
In another moment, another group of kills arrived.
Falling, four hundred for six hundred, Guy was already prepared by the enlightened soldiers, and the effect of the surprise attack was weakened.
Another moment, another set.
Four hundred for four hundred.
The enlightened soldiers looked at each other, unheard of such a suicide attack by the Pakistani army.
Since then, there have been two hundred archers left on the left and right, and the rest have all been killed in battle.
At this time, the enlightened army was highly guarded, and the halberds and battle battles came forward, forming a dense defensive line.
The number of people is absolutely inferior, the enemy has taken precautions, and the way that the Pakistani soldiers want to exchange their lives for one life is no longer effective. The remaining archers of the Pakistani army quickly changed their tactics and fought against two.
Woo!
Finally, four hundred archers launched a final attack.
From the lurking position, one of them suddenly jumped out and met the opponent's weapon with his body. At the same time, another archer took the opportunity to approach and deliver a fatal blow to his opponent.
Fell!
Kill an enlightened soldier at the cost of killing two archers.
Four hundred for two hundred.
This is a fatal arithmetic problem, under the absolute disadvantage of numbers and combat power, exchange 2,000 men for 2,000 opponents.
So far, 7,000 enlightened soldiers on both sides have all been killed. And the enlightened army paid the price of nearly 20,000 people.
The enlightened army won a crushing victory.
The enemy on both sides was cleared, and the enlightened army had no worries, and the bare soldiers were in front, leveling the earthen pits, and steadily advancing to the end of the passage.
At the same time, three columns of enlightened chariots also slowly advanced, closely following behind the unarmed soldiers.
......
At the same time, outside the passage, on the left and right flanks of the huge enlightened army, an ambush was brewing.
The 5,000 soldiers of the Pakistani army previously assigned to the left and right had already been regrouped, and they only waited for the enlightened chariot phalanx to enter the passage, that is, to launch a surprise attack on the enlightened cavalry camp on the left and right flanks.
The Pakistani army had a total of 300 chariots, each divided into 150 vehicles, and quietly concealed behind the cavalry. Twenty armor and apprentice soldiers were temporarily assigned to each chariot, 6,000 soldiers were used, and the remaining 4,000 were formed into elite cavalry.
This total of 10,000 Pakistani soldiers and horses had to face, and it was also more than three times the enlightened army. In addition, several surprise attacks on both sides of the passage had already attracted the attention of the enlightened army, and it also strengthened the defense against the two flanks of the army.
This raid will definitely affect the effect, but the arrow is ready to be sent and has to be sent.
Woo!
Waiting for most of the Phalanx of Enlightened Chariots to enter the passage, another attack order from Pakistan pierced the night sky.
The 4,000 elite cavalry of the Pakistani army jumped out from the hidden place, and after a while, a turn suddenly appeared in the sight of the cavalry on the left and right sides of the enlightened army.
Da-da!
The sound of horses' hooves accompanied the torrent of arrows from the string, rolling up the yellow sand.
This was a long-planned plan of the Pakistani army, and the rolling yellow sand and the rapid sound of horses' hooves effectively concealed the 150 chariots that followed.
These vehicles underwent a temporary emergency modification to remove all excess baggage so that they could travel lightly and reach speeds far exceeding those of ordinary vehicles. On both sides of the car, weapons such as Changge and long halberd were loaded, with blades facing forward and a height of only an adult's knee, which was intended to cause damage to the opponent's war horse, and the cavalry on the horse lost the ability to move quickly.
Behind each chariot were twenty apprentices. Their mission was to jump off the wagons one after the chariot had broken up the enemy cavalry formation, one to reduce weight and maintain the speed of the wagon's impact, and the other to launch a surprise attack on the opponent's fallen cavalry.
Da-da!
The black torrent is getting closer and closer to the flanks of the enlightened army.
The enlightened silver-armored cavalry had already formed a formation and was ready for battle, but when they heard the order, they also rushed towards the Pakistani army.
Black to silver, torrent to torrent.
A cavalry-to-cavalry battle was imminent.
However, Dan saw that among the cavalry of the Pakistani army, the first one waved a halberd in his hand.
Hiss!
Two thousand war horses roared in unison, their four hooves firmly grasped the ground, and they stopped their bodies rushing forward, and the black torrent stopped instantly.
The next moment, the war horses raised their hooves and turned around and galloped back in unison.
This change made the enlightened cavalry not know what to do, but they didn't have time to slow down, and continued to lead their horses forward, and in an instant, they plunged into the rolling yellow sand.
The chariot of the Pakistani army has arrived!
One hundred and fifty chariots lined up in three columns and charged head-on towards the enlightened cavalry.
Hiss!
Yes!
The sharp weapons on the carriage cut off the front legs of the enlightened army's war horses, and the war horses fell to the ground one after another.
The soldiers of the Pakistani army on the carriage jumped down suddenly, reaping the lives of the panicked cavalrymen who had just fallen off their horses.
The sudden chariot made the enlightened cavalry unable to deal with it, and the Pakistani chariot phalanx was like a black giant scythe, cutting through the silver torrent composed of the enlightened cavalry, constantly cutting down the war horses, and rushing straight to the enlightened Chinese army.
The soldiers on the chariot kept jumping down, engaging in hand-to-hand combat with the fallen cavalry.
Soon, in the phalanx of enlightened cavalry, a gap formed by three columns of chariots appeared.
At this time, the 2,000 cavalry of the Ba Army, which had disappeared earlier, reappeared, and rushed along the gap in two columns, while assisting in the harvesting of the lives of the fallen enemy soldiers, while rushing after the chariots in front.
At the same time, on the other side, similar plots are being staged simultaneously.
If someone stood on a high place, he could see that two black torrents, each composed of one hundred and fifty chariots and two thousand cavalry, were advancing left and right, cutting through the silver torrent and rushing straight to the position of the Chinese army of the enlightened army.
That's right, it's a bold and crazy plan!
A total of 10,000 soldiers of the Pakistani army vowed to raid the two flanks of the enemy army and forcibly take the Chinese army.
Their target is the commander of the enlightened army, the captain!
Although most of the enlightened chariots have entered the passage, there are still 60,000 men and horses at this time, and it is almost an impossible task to take the head of the opponent's commander in the army.
