Chapter 338: Annihilation of the enemy on a rainy night
The arc-shaped lightning spanned the sky, followed by a thunderbolt suddenly sounded in the sky, and large drops of rain fell from the sky in an instant. In the midst of the storm, the three hundred Fufeng cavalry divided into three arrows and rushed towards the horse bandit camp not far ahead.
When the three hundred Fufeng cavalry pierced into this humble camp from three directions, the high jumping horses ruthlessly trampled the tent down, and the Fufeng cavalry swept away from the outside, waving the war horse, and slashed at the human figure wriggling under the tent, and the tent was broken, and the blood splattered out from the crack, and in the blink of an eye, the ground was dyed red.
The moon is dark and the wind is high, killing people and setting fire, the tiger head excitedly waved the Mo knife in his hand, dancing like a windmill, and instantly rushed from this end of the camp to the other end, he was originally a saber, but since the Curie Pass Bingfang developed this kind of Mo knife weighing more than 30 pounds of double-sided blades, he couldn't put it down, regardless of the fact that this thing itself was developed by the armored infantry to restrain the cavalry. At this moment, on top of this Mo knife weighing dozens of catties, it was already dripping with blood, and in the hands of his big man, it was like a light toy.
The horizontal knife has never changed his blade, he is accustomed to a nine-ring knife, thick back and thin blade, on the back of the knife, wearing nine iron rings, every time he swings, it is a chaotic sound, when facing the enemy, it can attract people's hearts.
These two people are the cadres under the command of Bai Yucheng, and they originally played the vanguard role in the horse bandit team, the two of them are tall and have very unique weapons, and when they are facing the enemy, it is easy to cause huge psychological pressure on the enemy.
Infantry rode their horses and stood on the edge of the battlefield. Beside him, the two Fufeng cavalry swords were unsheathed, vigilantly scanning the surroundings, the longbow in the infantry's hand was on top of the feather arrows, but the whole bow body hung down to the ground, the infantry found that he was useless at all, this group of horse bandits had no defense, look at the war horses scurrying around in the camp palace can be known, these horses. Not even a saddle sheath. Most of them had already laid their bodies on the spot before they could figure out the situation, and the horse bandits who were lucky enough to escape from the collapsed tent could not run a few steps like flies, and they would be cut off by Fufeng Caizhen, who rode by.
Three bands of Fufeng cavalry crisscrossed the camp, an extremely effective killing machine. The members of these 300 cavalry are somewhat complicated, including Helan cavalry, horse bandits, and local soldiers from Fufeng, although the sources are different. But now they have one thing in common, that is, effective command and strict military discipline.
Needless to say, the Fufeng cavalry itself, and the Helan cavalry itself was re-formed by Helan Xiong after referring to Fufeng's training method. Compared with the Wind Soldiers, they not only have strict discipline, but also have much stronger horse skills than the Wind Soldiers. As for the horse bandits, there are only two people, the horizontal knife and the tiger head.
Compared with the tiger head and the horizontal knife, he shouted loudly and charged into battle. The rest of the people are smothering with their mouths closed, but this silent killing. The pressure on people is even greater.
The infantry was sure that he didn't need to make a move, and his eyes followed the beating red in front of him, it was He Lanyan, even if there was no danger that threatened him, the infantry had to keep enough of her mind.
It wasn't a battle, it was more like a massacre, and when the loose bandits met the disciplined army, their fate was almost decided. It was getting dark, the rain was still falling, but the battle was over. This humble horse bandit camp has now been turned into a Shura field. Most of the horse bandits have died on the spot, and they are fortunate enough to be favored by God, and they escaped from Shengtian by luck, and at this time they don't know where they have escaped, and there are more than a dozen unlucky guys who were crushed in the collapsed tent and captured alive when the Fufeng Army was cleaning up the battlefield.
When the rain gradually stopped, in the distance, Sun Xiao's foot soldiers finally arrived, He Lanyan led three hundred cavalry to explore the road and sweep away the rout, but Sun Xiao and the thousand foot soldiers still had to escort hundreds of carriages full of supplies, and with these thousand cavalry, there were thousands of people.
When Sun Xiao appeared on the battlefield, Helan Yan also happened to come out of a tent that was still intact, and changed into clothes again, after all, she was a woman, and she didn't feel anything when she was fighting, but when the battle was over, it was not very suitable to wear the clothes wet in the rain, not only him, but even Helanyan's two personal female guards Sura and Ula were also the same, and the three of them could only get into the tent and change into dry clothes.
Looking at the soldiers who were still dripping water on their clothes and cleaning the battlefield without care, He Lanyan once again realized what Gao Yuan told her about the inconvenience of women fighting outside.
"The head of the sect is mighty!" Sun Xiao gave a thumbs up, "With less hostility, it is easy to win, even if the general personally commands, it is nothing more than that." In order to get Helan Yan's cooperation in the future, Sun Xiao was not afraid to raise Helan Yan high, and the words of praise sprayed out like a flowing price, and even the infantry on the side felt a little disgusted when they heard it.
"Calculated by heart and unprepared, prepared to attack unprepared, but just a group of routs, what is there to be proud of. Sun Xiao, more than a dozen prisoners have been captured here, you come to interrogate, I don't bother to ask, what are these different horse bandits going to do when they get together? Ask clearly. He Lanyan said lightly.
"Okay, no problem, you can leave such a trivial matter to me!" Sun Xiao said with a smile, "Sect Leader, this place is not far from Jishi Mountain, and I have to ask the Sect Leader to send a sentry to investigate the situation over there." ”
"After dawn, Hengdao and Helanjie have already gone, and I believe it won't be long before the two of them can come back."
"That's a good idea!" Sun Xiao nodded repeatedly.
More than a dozen captives were mentioned by Sun Xiao aside, and the people and soldiers were also busy, this Shura field had to be cleaned up, and of course the armor had to be put away, these things were never too little, even if they were broken knives and guns, it was good to take them back and recast them, and the horse bandits were looting everywhere, everyone was also rich, and it was necessary to dig out their pockets. After all this, you have to dig a pit to bury these dead bodies, the weather is hot now, if you don't clean it up, it won't take a day's work, these corpses will be rotten, if you start a plague service, it will not be fun, a plague service can make a powerful tribe decline in a very short time.
The result of the interrogation made Sun Xiao surprised and delighted, and what surprised him was that Jishi Mountain had been occupied by a Xiongnu tribe for a very long time, and it was also necessary to think that such a place with prominent terrain and a water source would definitely not be without an owner.
This tribe doesn't know if it's luck or what, it hasn't been invaded by much war, not only is there a lot of cattle and sheep, but it seems that the property in the clan is also extremely rich, and the cavalry they can handle will not exceed four hundred horsemen.
Although there were only four hundred horsemen, it was more than the strength of any of these horse bandits, so they gathered together and prepared to attack this tribe, but they did not think that they had not yet made a move against this tribe, and they were first picked up by the wind supporters.
"Sect leader, this is a tribe called Gongsun. The chief's name is Aman. I am in my early forties this year, and I don't have a lot of strength in my hands, and I can only get more than 400 horsemen, and some of the trouble is that they have been operating here for a long time, but I am afraid that the old camp is very strong." Sun Xiaoxing rushed to find He Lanyan, "Have you heard of this tribe called Gongsun?"
Helan Yan nodded, "I've heard that it was originally similar to our Helan clan, I thought they hadn't escaped the catastrophe of the grassland, but they didn't expect to survive and actually stood in front of us. No matter who they are, if they are in front of us, they must be taken, and let's wait for the horizontal knife to come back!"
"The head of the church said yes. By the way, sect leader, this Gongsun tribe is in line with what the general said about recruiting people, but I don't know if they know whether they know anything or not, if they can surrender to us, it would be best, otherwise, we can only destroy them!" Sun Xiao touched his chin and said. The other party has 400 cavalry, for him now, it is not a particularly strong force, now he has 300 cavalry led by He Lanyan in his hands, there are 1,000 foot soldiers under his own command, and more than 1,000 people, who are also engaged in military training, fighting, one person is issued a spear, not to mention charging into battle, it is also good to scare the opponent. On top of strength, he has the absolute upper hand. In terms of armament, it is even more incomparable, you must know that on the carriage behind him, there are dozens of bed crossbows alone, which are ready to be built after the fortress of Jishi Mountain, placed on the head of the city for defense, but now, it is also a sharp weapon to break the opponent's old camp. Not to mention the arm-open crossbow.
"It's less than fifty miles away from Jishi Mountain here, and if you want to come to the other party, you also know that someone wants to beat their attention, maybe they will come to attack, Sun Xiao, let's set up camp first." Helan Yandao.
"If only he had come." Sun Xiao smiled, "But it will save trouble."
"Don't be careless, the dog is in a hurry and has to jump off the wall! When it comes to life and death, anyone can burst out with great energy. Don't underestimate others!" He Lanyan shook her head and said.
Listening to He Lanyan's words, Sun Xiaoben's somewhat contemptuous heart immediately became vigilant, and he arched his hand to He Lanyan and said, "Thank you for the reminder."
After burying hundreds of corpses, the Fufeng soldiers circled hundreds of carriages together to form a simple car formation, here, it was not far from Jishi Mountain, Sun Xiao was not ready to camp in a time-consuming and laborious manner, he wanted to go directly to Jishi Mountain.
