At the foot of Song Mountain, Ma Yue's subordinates were making final repairs.

Ma Xiu and Ma Tie were in charge of the garrison, and Ma Chao and Ma Dai supervised more than 1,000 heavily armored armoured troops to cut down trees and rush to control the ram and ladder.

Tonight, they will sleep comfortably in the Yuyuan Pass.

There was almost no suspense for them, and the Black Mountain Army now probably thought that they had occupied Luhun Pass.

The last calm before the war.

For the armored army, leaving the foot of Songshan Mountain tonight is a long trek and close combat for dozens of days, so the leisurely days may be gone forever.

The sets of heavy armor were neatly placed in the camp and well guarded, and the sergeants did not have to wear full armor when they were not working. The armor of the armor army is composed of two layers, one layer is two crotch armor to protect the chest, abdomen and back, but it weighs more than ten pounds, and it can still maintain light and abundant physical strength when worn on the body. The second layer is the heavy armor and neck guards of the outer cover, forming a defense of the whole body.

In the quiet forest, there was not a trace of birds and apes chirping, and Ma Yue sat in a simple military tent and planned the next offensive route with Yan Xing and others.

"Yanming, Xingba, I will lead the crowd to tackle the key problems at night, and the two of you will each command a thousand troops to climb the city without lights on both sides of the pass when the war starts, and you must kill the head of the city." Ma Yue threw himself through the gap in the simple military tent and looked up at the sky with dark clouds hanging low, frowned and said: "It's going to rain, if there is no rain tonight, bring a shield and a strong crossbow to climb the city, if it rains, lightly armed with a short sword, kill them all around." ”

"No!" Gan Ning raised his head and asked, "Lord, do you want to send someone to the city to talk about the truth in Guanzhong first?" ”

Ma Yue's fingers tapped lightly on a few cases, and he said after a moment of silence: "It's okay, let's see whose banner they are fighting, there are only a few guys in the Black Mountain Army who have been active on the battlefield since the time of Zhang Jiao are more difficult to deal with, and the others are just a rabble." ”

Gan Ning was ordered to go to the city to choose a good hand, and Yan Xing also packed his clothes and armor and prepared to go to the surrounding roads to clear the passage.

At this moment, thousands of hidden figures in the mountains and forests have carefully surrounded the camp of the armored army, and these Jizhou men with big paint on their faces are holding strong bows and short knives, and their waists are tied with throwing stones, one by one, as if they are facing a great enemy.

Sun jumped up a big tree with vigor, squinted his eyes and scanned the camp of the armored army, looked back and quickly made a few gestures to his subordinates, and pulled up the strong bow in his hand.

"Doo!"

The bowstring rattled and the sound was so abrupt in the woods that an arrow shot out from the woods, cutting through the trees and piercing the forehead of an armored soldier with precision.

"Enemy attack!" The sentry guarding beside him was stunned by this change, and saw with his own eyes that the eyes of the robe were round, and he fell straight to the ground, his relaxed heart suddenly tensed, and shouted loudly: "Concealment, enemy attack!" ”

The camp was in disarray, and since the first arrow from the woods was fired, countless bows and arrows had been shot out of the deep woods and nailed to the armoured armoured men in two-crotch armor between the camps. Screams and wails were mixed, and the most terrifying thing was that the endless towering trees became the best cover for the enemy, and they could not judge the exact location of the enemy army.

Yan Xing and Gan Ning had just put on their armor, and suddenly something happened in the camp. Almost without hesitation, Yan Xing grabbed a strong bow from the side and threw it to Gan Ning, while he held the strong crossbow behind the wooden box, and shouted to his subordinates: "Defense, hide behind the wooden fence, don't expose it!" ”

Gan Ning pulled down his armor with a strong bow and calmly exposed himself to the empty camp, not avoiding the arrows that came from him. Standing at the front of the camp, the arrows from the forest flew a hundred paces and landed on the armor leaving only slight scratches.

An arrow flew towards his face from the forest, and Gan Ning grabbed the arrow with a sudden wave of his hand, and the arrow was firmly grasped by the hand armor, and Gan Ning seemed to see the surprised face of the enemy between the gaps in the stacking trees. Pulling out a cruel smile, more cruel than the demon carved on his visor, Gan Ning bent his bow and squinted his eyes and shot the arrow out the same way, not surprisingly, he caught a scream from the forest in the chaotic screams of his robes.

"Armor Coverer, Formation!" With one shot, Gan Ning did not have the slightest arrogance, nor did he shoot again, but bent down and grabbed a robe with an injured leg and dragged it back. "Cover the wounded and retreat!"

More heavily armored sergeants formed in formation, forming walls of steel in front of the wounded robes, holding their bows and firing blindly into the woods. But there were too many enemies, too many wounded robes, and the sergeants covered with heavy armor were only a few after all, and the scattered rain of arrows was blocked by the branches of the trees, and it was impossible to suppress the unknown enemy in the forest.

When the raid took place, Ma Chao was shirtless and carrying a battle axe to help the soldiers cut the city breaker, and the sudden raid did not make him feel afraid, but deeply aroused his ferocity, and he was about to run out of the camp to kill the small people in the forest with a rattan card and a battle axe.

Arrows rained down on the camp, and in a matter of moments, the armoured armoured men in light or even no armor suffered heavy casualties. The arrows nailed to the shield in his hand made a continuous jingle, and Ma Chao's shield danced impenetrable in the charge, and shouted left and right while galloping: "Guard, look for the shield, wear armor, the daredevils will kill them with me!" ”

As soon as the words fell, before he could take two steps, Ma Chao in the gallop was knocked to the ground by an armored man covered in iron armor. Then he was dragged behind the bunker, and the armor-covered man lifted his visor, which was Ma Dai.

"Big brother, are you crazy? Put on the armor first! Ma Dai's face turned pale from nervousness, not at all like Ma Chao's angry red, he pressed Ma Chao and asked, "What about the general?" Where's my uncle? ”

"I'm here!" As soon as Ma Dai's words fell, he heard a calm voice beside him, accompanied by the sound of running in iron shoes, and he saw a group of more than a dozen armored soldiers surrounding the tall iron-armored soldiers. Ma Yue walked to the two of them with his face armor covered, threw a set of heavy armor in his hand in front of Ma Chao, and shouted: "The enemy is in the dense forest in the east, the armored sergeant shrinks the defense line to cover the wounded, and the unarmored quickly covers the armor, don't fall in love with the enemy!" ”

In order not to attract the attention of the Montenegrin army, the location of the camp has been changed one after another in recent days, and the current camp is not in danger at all.

"Ziquan erected a big bow and gathered troops." Ma Yue said while holding a strong bow and shooting towards the forest, and said to Ma Chao wearing armor while loading the arrow: "Meng Qi, you take Bozhan to protect the war horse, and let the sergeants put armor on the war horse." ”

As time went on, more and more armored sergeants wore armor and held shields to form a line of steel defense, and it was difficult for arrows to pose a threat to them, even though the arrows continued to fire in the woods.

More and more armor-covered soldiers gathered around Ma Yue, and Ma Yue finally gave the order to retreat. "Cover the retreat of the wounded and withdraw westward by the same route. Mahew Ma Tie open the way! ”

"General, let's attack them head-on, as long as the Black Mountain Army is out of the mountains and forests, it will not be our opponent!" Yang Feng leaned beside Ma Yue and held a shield to cover him, and said: "If this is the Black Mountain Army in Yuyuan Pass, then there must be emptiness in the pass now, and one blow can be determined!" ”

Ma Yue nodded calmly and said, "I know, but I don't know how many enemy troops there are in the forest ahead, if they don't come out, let's not go in, let's retreat a little west first, and see what they want to do." Then it rushes out of the woodland from the north. ”

He thought very simply, after ten years of Rong Ma, he was used to thinking backwards about everything. If the Montenegrin army was under his command and did not enter the camp and only shot from the east, it must have been to drive him to the west. It is possible that the enemy is afraid of him and wants to drive him away. But it is more likely that there are enemies in the west as well.

They closed the circle.

In this case, he let the enemy relax a little, as long as the enemy's arrows are weak, it means that he has hit the enemy's idea, and he can break through to the north. What's more, he has to give his subordinates time to put on their armor.

As the armored army retreated to the west, the enemy's arrows were much weaker, and Ma Yue temporarily gave way to retreat 2,000 paces to the west, and at the same time ordered Ma Tiema to rest to guard against a possible encirclement in the west. He led Gan Ning Yan Xing and more than a thousand armor-covered soldiers to make a detour back to the camp.

He left behind a lot of things in the camp, such as armor, armored horses, weapons, and so on.

Adjacent to the camp, sure enough, the sergeants of the Montenegrin Army were snatching elite armaments and were already making a mess in the camp.

"Order the whole army to protrude the camp to the north, so that Meng Qibozhan is ready to rush and kill." Ma Yue whispered an order to his subordinates, and said to Gan Ning Yan Xing: "Each leader has five hundred, touch it to form an encirclement, and drive the enemy army north." ”

Sun Qing in the camp was still scolding the soldiers, "Messily robbing things, what should I do if Ma Yue comes back, are you all crazy?" Damn it! ”

Having said that, when his subordinates carried a complete set of Liangzhou heavy armor in front of him, Sun Qing still crooked his mouth. No matter what the soldiers were, they threw down the rusty armor on their bodies, and grabbed the Liangzhou heavy armor and put it on their bodies.

Before Sun Qing finished putting on his heavy armor, he heard a loud shout in the forest left and right, "Armored army, shoot!" ”

It's just feng shui in turns, and it's really accurate by Sun Qing, thousands of arrows thrown by the strong crossbow and strong bow nailed the Black Mountain Army to the ground, and the screams were higher and higher, and after three waves of arrow rain, there was almost no strength to scream.

Those who could hide hid hid, and those who didn't basically didn't get hurt, and all died under the rain of arrows.

Sun Qing didn't even have time to give an order for the whole army to retreat, when he saw hundreds of heavily armored sergeants rushing towards him with battle axes and short swords. The footsteps of the hoplites made the mountains tremble, let alone his grandson?

On all sides, heavily armored sergeants roared to slaughter the panicked Montenegrin army. This is the most sketchy engagement Sun Qing has ever seen, it can be said that there was no engagement, the angry Black Mountain Army and the Armored Army collided together and were broken through the front in a moment, and then the defeat was like a mountain.

The invincible Montenegrin army retreated quickly, no one cared about him at all, Sun Qing naturally ran away with a machete, and although a heavy armor was worn on his body, although it affected his speed, his strong body ensured that he would not fall behind.

Suddenly, the unworn hood on his head fell to the ground, and in a hurry, Sun Qing hurriedly turned around and picked up the helmet.

As soon as he put it on his head, he heard a 'clanging' sound coming from his head and raised his head...... A general with a shallow scar on his face had just lifted his visor and asked with a smile, "Where do you want to run?" ”
