Chapter 217: Gambling War
"Du Nuohua, I told you a long time ago, don't transfer the Kshatriya to be used as a pioneer, but don't listen, now it's okay, it's hurting your muscles and bones, hehe."
Swept around left and right, and found that Du Nowa's proud hundred elite Kshatriya warriors were actually a small half, Baker was immediately happy, these people are Du Nowa's heart, and they are the backbone of his command, and now a small half is missing, and the combat effectiveness must be reduced by at least one-third! And it is very difficult for the Kshatriya to replenish it.
In the past, if he really wanted to die, he had to give this old guy three points, but now, Baker said that even if he starts the film now, he won't be cowardly at all! Although his Kshatriya warriors are not very strong in combat effectiveness, their command ability is not low, and each of them commands two hundred soldiers, and he can definitely grind the current Du Nuohua on the ground!
"Humph!"
Du Nuohua snorted coldly, turned his head and left, this topic was one of the reasons why he and Baker fell out, he advocated using the elite Kshatriya as the front to break the formation, assault, and open up the situation, while Baker advocated using the Kshatriya as a node to command the troops and strengthen the overall combat effectiveness of the troops.
And now, he Du Nohua's Kshatriya has suffered heavy losses, resulting in a rapid decline in the combat power of the troops, which is an unavoidable fact, and he can't defend himself with Baker, and let him go back, this time let him fight with the Han family first, and see what results he can get in front of the Han family!
Half an hour later
Zhang Ren, who was resting against a big tree, received news from Di Junman: Guishan soldiers and horses are approaching again! There are more than 7,000 people!
"Assemble the troops! Get ready for battle! ”
got up and roared, Zhang Ren didn't have the slightest worry in his heart, isn't it just 7,000 people, what are you afraid of, no matter how they say it now, they have a team of more than 15,000 people, of course, plus a hundred soldiers whose morale is almost zero, but with their incomparable and invincible Han army, not to mention defeat, it is still certain to repel the 7,000 Guishan soldiers and horses.
There is no need to toss an ambush or something, the other party is not a fool, this time I will overthrow them in a dignified manner, my dignified bloody robe Zhang Ren is not in vain!
"Report~, the Han army is waiting for a mile ahead!"
With all the troops and horses and high morale, Baker naturally acted as a pathfinder, and after hearing the news from the spies, he did not relax in the slightest, and still moved forward very cautiously and slowly.
Don't look at his previous completely merciless mockery of Du Nuohua's embarrassing defeat, and he didn't show any special concern for the Han army, but in fact, the vigilance in this guy's heart has been raised to the extreme, as a wise general who is familiar with the history of Guishan, or the history books of the Dayue clan, he deeply thinks that the strength of the Han family is not only the strength of the army, but also the incomparable wisdom!
Like the most memorable vice king Xie attacking the post station in the Western Regions, he thought that the reason why he was defeating Vice Wang Xie was not how strong Ban Chao's army was, but that the other party completely suppressed Vice Wang Xie strategically, whether it was intercepting the grain road or ambushing the envoy who made Qiuzi, it was directly hit in the key point of Vice King Xie!
And this time, Du Nuohua's defeat was the same, he pursued the Han army, but was ambushed by the other party, and the forty elite Kshatriyas were killed in an instant!
Therefore, against the Han family, it is absolutely necessary to fight steadily, even if it is a good opportunity, or even a big flaw, he Baker said: Absolutely will not attack rashly!
Sent more than 100 of the most elite spies again, and also borrowed 50 from Lin Hao's hands from Du Nuohua, and nearly 300 scouts were sent out, distributed within a radius of five miles with him as the center, closely monitoring all the movements around him, and then slowed down the march again, and steadily marched forward.
Du Nohua expressed extreme dissatisfaction with Beck's cautious and overly cautious behavior, he was most unhappy with Baker's behavior, and he laughed at it when he understood his intentions, and those who didn't know thought that this thing was greedy for life and afraid of death, and did not have the courage and fighting spirit that Kshatriya warriors should have! Even though Baker's mortality rate was the lowest in the entire Kushan Army, and the mission completion rate was extremely high, there were still people who kept attacking him for his seemingly very timid combat style.
"It's coming!"
After waiting for half an hour, when Zhang Ren was a little anxious, Guishuang's soldiers and horses finally appeared in his sight.
"Han Army!"
Similarly, Baker, who was walking in the forefront, also swept his gaze to Zhang Ren and his subordinates who were waiting in formation, Baker couldn't help muttering, and then straightened up, raised his head and began to observe the Han army neatly lined up in front.
Although the spear in his hand was wiped clean, the blood and cold glow that emanated from it all showed that this weapon was full of countless blood, and then looked at the soldiers behind him, each with his head held high, full of fighting spirit, and his morale was even more explosive.
If he had changed his usual times and encountered this kind of opponent, Baker would definitely have to weigh whether the fall and benefits of this battle were worth his war, but now, there was no choice, he had to go to war!
Gently glanced at his subordinates, well, it's okay, although the morale and fighting spirit are a little lower than the Han army that just won a game, but it is not without the strength to fight.
"Clive! If I'm not mistaken, you should know Chinese. ”
Baker, who already had some certainty in his heart, decisively turned his head and said to a young man beside him
"Go and inform the Han family, just say that I, Guishan, am willing to fight a fair battle with it, and the two sides will each fight with 5,000 men and horses, and the land will be demarcated, and those who withdraw from the outside will be defeated! The loser will retreat fifty miles! ”
Clive, who was carrying the scimitar, heard this, and his indifferent eyes burst into a strong and terrifying battle intent in vain, and without saying a word, the scimitar in his hand turned and rushed over with a clamp on the horse's belly.
As an orthodox young warrior from the Dayue clan and with great ambitions, if you want to say which force you want to fight with the most in this life, the first place must be the Xiongnu, followed by the Han! The former has a blood feud with his Dayue clan, and the old Huns in the past were single, killing their kings, and using their heads as drinking vessels for their hatred, which is deep in their hearts and dare not forget. The latter humiliated his Dayue clan and regarded him as a small vassal country, and the humiliation was still in front of him!
The reason why he rode thousands of miles from Peshawar to Fahrenheit, and joined these Brahmin armies that he had always despised, was for now! In order to personally understand how strong the great man who once made his ancestors fearful of gods really is!
"Han General!"
The scimitar in Clive's hand, which rushed to kill Zhang Ren less than fifty paces, pointed angrily at Zhang Ren and shouted
"Our army is willing to fight a fair battle with you, and each side will fight 5,000 men and horses, and the land will be demarcated, and those who withdraw from the boundary will be defeated! If you lose, you will retreat fifty miles, but you dare to fight! ”
Speaking fluent Chinese, Clive was undaunted to provoke
"If you are cowardly, afraid of war, quickly retreat for a hundred miles, and give up Yizhou, I can still spare a dog's life!"
Wu Lan, who was carrying a crossbow on the side, was furious when he heard this, and just wanted to take a step forward and raise his hand to shoot the arrogant and domineering Guishan general off the horse. Really, if they can't kill you? Even if there is no repeater produced by the Immortal, an ordinary delicate repeater can cause effective damage to it.
Without waiting for Wu Lan to raise his hand, Zhang Ren on the side stopped it with a spear in his hand, and now there is a chance to shoot the young Guishuang general, but people are here to challenge, if this will be a black hand, it will fall into the momentum instead, making them afraid of Guishuang in general, it is not worth it.
"Do you dare to fight? Han Jun, is it so cowardly? ”
Squinting at the young Guishuang general who continued to die, Zhang Ren's heart sank slightly, the other party's behavior was quite abnormal. As for the radical method, this kind of thing is rotten in their Han family, and it's really ridiculous that you a foreigner came to this class to get an axe! is so not afraid of death to fight against them, if there is no conspiracy, he Zhang Ren is the first to disbelieve it.
However, in the battle of 5,000 people, he Zhang Ren is not vain, and according to the news of Liao Junman, within ten miles of this vicinity, there is only this Guishan soldier and horse, even if the other party loses the fried hair, it is a big deal to open the film and fight, who is afraid of whom!
Just as Zhang Ren was about to open his mouth to gamble on the battle, he suddenly saw the Guishan soldiers and horses on the opposite side slowly step forward and pressed over, and after he saw the nearly three hundred people in the lead, he was suddenly shocked in his heart, and swallowed the words that were almost blurted out.
