Looking at those Maguindanu natives, standing silently eighty steps away from his position, not advancing or retreating, Li Haoran was stunned.

infoThese ugly people, do they want to trap themselves here?

Li Haoran frowned, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that these natives had sinister intentions.

Then, in this rainforest, if these Maguindanu natives can successfully trap themselves here until dark, then, at night, because there is almost no moonlight in the depths of the rainforest, these Maguindanu natives will take advantage of the chaos to besiege and kill themselves by surprise.

And their own army, except for the shield soldiers on the periphery, is all long-range attacking crossbowmen, if they are forced to fight in the dark with these Maguindanu, who are accustomed to fighting at night, they will only suffer a great loss if they attack the enemy's strengths in a short time.

Thinking of this, a touch of ruthlessness suddenly crossed Li Haoran's face.

Hum!

You ugly creatures, you want to be beautiful, and you want to drag our army until nightfall and eat it, but Ben didn't plan to play with you here until dark.

Now, I want you to taste the new formation of our army, what it is like.

"Pass on our military order, and all the crossbowmen will collectively attack the enemy soldiers in front of them. After repelling the enemy and revealing the gap, the whole army marched again. ”

"Order!"

Under Li Haoran's order, the crossbowmen in the Tang army crowded forward one after another, and the crossbowmen at the front were closely overlapped.

If you look closely, you can see that the entire Tang Army's tortoiseshell array presents a dense front and sparse array style.

The crossbowmen crowded in front of them were almost separated by two rows, the most front row was half-squatting, resting the crossbow on the shield, and the row behind was standing, holding the crossbow in their hands, and the crossbow arrows were just one end higher than the crossbowmen in front.

"Ready!"

"Put!"

"Whoosh Whoosh ......"

The dense crossbowmen in the front of the tortoiseshell array began to fire their crossbow arrows, and more than 2,000 dense crossbow arrows shot towards the enemy troops at the front of the road.

The sound of crossbow arrows shooting into the human body could be heard in the distance, and in the continuous screams, the originally sparse Maguindanu natives in front were quickly shot down by the Tang army, revealing a large gap.

Seeing this gap that appeared in front of him, more than 20 steps long, Li Haoran's face was full of pride.

Hmph, you indigenous ugly people, you have tasted the power of our army, do you think that outside the range of our army, and put in a sparse formation, you can make our army helpless, tell you, my Tang Army soldiers have a way to deal with you ugly people!

Seeing that the gap was opened, a burst of cheers immediately sounded in the Tang army's formation, and then the whole army maintained its formation and continued to advance slowly.

The next battle basically became the same pattern.

That is, after the Tang army advanced for a while, it was stopped by these Maguindanu natives, and then the Tang army concentrated its firepower, shot one or two natives in the front, opened the gap, and then continued to move forward.

After repeating this three or four times, the Tang army attacked and killed more than 600 Maguindanu native soldiers in the front.

After these battles, the morale of the Tang army was already high, and the Maguindanu natives, who were constantly damaged but could never form an effective attack on the Tang army, were demoralized and became more and more exhausted.

Finally, when the Tang army struck away the Maguindanu natives who were blocking the road for the fifth time, the remaining Maguindanu aborigines sounded the bone flute of retreat, and then retreated one after another.

Seeing these natives retreat from the siege, all the Tang troops breathed a sigh of relief.

These indigenous ugly creatures, although they are not capable of causing losses to themselves, are always like a toad, disgusting people, and now they are forced to flee, which is much more relieving.

"The whole army obeyed the order, accelerated its march, and rushed to Bamao Village as soon as possible!"

Li Haoran ordered loudly again.

"Order!"

On the winding and difficult path, the Tang army, lined up in a long array, like a long gray snake, continued to move eastward.

After the Tang army trekked for nearly an hour, they finally arrived outside the village of Yibamao, and at this time, the sun was nearly west.

Li Haoran saw that this Bamao Village is located between two mountains, in front of the village and behind the village, there are dense rainforests and ponds, and the terrain is very dangerous, which can be described as a critical place that is easy to defend and difficult to attack.

At this time, from a distance, in the distant village of Bamao, it seems that the entire village has run away, and there is no figure in sight, and it is very silent.

After a whole day of marching, the entire Tang army was extremely tired, and there were even a few soldiers whose legs trembled and were unstable.

At this time, when they saw that there was no one in the village in front of them, they subconsciously thought that it might be that the residents of the village saw that they were powerful, so they hurriedly abandoned the village and fled.

Now, it's just the right time for us to pick up a bargain.

All the Tang troops did not hesitate anymore, and immediately seized the time to march to the village, wanting to let themselves rest as soon as possible.

Unexpectedly, they walked dozens of steps ahead, and when they were about to reach the entrance of the village, they were immediately stopped by Li Haoran.

"Brothers, it seems that there is no one in this Bamao Village, but our army is alone from afar, so we must not be careless. You need to send someone to check it out first. ”

After Li Haoran finished speaking, he immediately called six crossbowmen and asked them to enter the village to sentry.

Among these six people, Tan Sangou is one of them.

In the afterglow of dusk, they stepped on the still soft earth, breathed in the damp and rotten smell of the tropical rainforest, formed a small team, and walked cautiously towards the village.

The village in front of us was still calm and silent, dead silent.

They finally entered the entrance of the village, Tan Sangou and the others took a look, in this village, every bamboo house has been emptied, and the open space and square in the village are all empty, and it seems that there is indeed no one left.

It's just that, after taking a few steps forward, they realize that they have completely misunderstood.

At this time, in the village, there was immediately a sharp bone flute sounding densely, and at the same time, behind every haystack, every stone, and every bamboo card, a large number of natives wearing bright paints and bone masks rushed out howling.

The crossbowmen of the six sentinels suddenly turned like earth.

Immediately, someone howled and turned around and fled, but immediately there were bows and arrows sounding tensely, and more than thirty whistling arrows immediately caught up with them.

Of the six crossbowmen, four of them died of convulsions on the spot because they were shot in the hands and feet by poisonous arrows.

There was a lucky guy who escaped with his life because he connected three arrows, all of which were shot at the wrought iron back armor, and bounced off on the spot.

Seeing these crossbowmen who went to the sentinel to probe, only this one person fled back, and the commander-in-chief, Li Haoran, was so angry that he stomped his feet.

"it! Unexpectedly, these ugly creatures had already set up an ambush in the village, but our army was calculated in vain! The whole army obeyed the order and quickly set up a tortoiseshell formation! ”

At this time, a large number of soldiers poured out from the entrance of Bamao Village, and on the hills on both sides of the village, as well as in the depths of the rainforest, a large number of Maguindanu soldiers also emerged.

The situation of the Tang Army was suddenly very critical.

Li Haoran gritted his teeth with hatred when he saw this shape, he knew that these natives knew that long-range attacks were not the opponents of the Tang army, so they decided to use the terrain to ambush them at the entrance of this village and fight a surprise battle with the Tang army, so as to use their own strength advantage to engage in hand-to-hand combat with the Tang army.

After rushing to twenty steps away from the Tang army's battle formation, the natives who roared and attacked threw the shuttle dart in their hands to the Tang army that was forming a formation.

One by one, the black pike darts soaked in poison, like a rain of pike darts, roared and flew towards the Tang army, and in the Tang army's array, a continuous scream suddenly sounded.

At least more than sixty shield soldiers, more than a hundred crossbowmen, and two of Li Haoran's guards were all hit by the shuttle dart and immediately convulsed to death.

Li Haoran's lips were biting with hatred, and the resentment in his heart was beyond measure.

These Maguindanu natives are really like a small strong man who can't finish fighting, dying wave after wave, and coming to attack again and again, and their fighting spirit is really the strongest since the Tang army invaded Southeast Asia.

When the Tang army urgently set up a tortoiseshell array, a large number of Maguindanu indigenous soldiers had already shouted to kill.

"Bang!"

There was a muffled sound outside the tortoiseshell battle array, and the Maguindanu natives collided fiercely with the Tang Army's ring-shaped large shield tortoiseshell array.

At this moment, about dozens of natives who couldn't hold their feet, because of the light, did not see the spikes on the shield on the opposite side clearly, and accidentally hit the spikes fiercely, and immediately convulsed and died, like frogs that have been strung together.

"Shoot, three salvos, don't aim, shoot fast!" Li Haoran ordered loudly with a hideous face. After listening to the commander's order, all the crossbowmen who were loading were stunned, and each of them immediately began to press three wrought iron crossbow arrows into the crossbow groove, and then shot outward. Three salvos can achieve the maximum firing effect in a short time, but for crossbow arrows, the waste is very serious. This extremely wasteful method of shooting crossbow arrows is absolutely forbidden in peacetime, but in the present time of life, it is the most effective means of killing and injuring enemy soldiers. "Whoosh...... Immediately, more than 8,000 poisonous crossbow arrows roared out, and in a very short distance, like a dense and violent rain of steel, shot fiercely towards the Maguindanu soldiers who roared and rushed towards them. At the same time, the Maguindanu soldiers who were roaring and rushing towards each other used their highly poisonous bamboo guns to cross the big shield of the Tang army and stab at the Tang army fiercely. For a while, the screams of the Tang army and the indigenous people of Maguindanu rang out. Those Maguindanu natives who rushed in were immediately shot by the crossbow arrows like a waterfall, and because they were shot at close range, the crossbow arrows were extremely powerful, and the damage to these Maguindanu natives was also extremely heavy. Li Haoran clearly saw that among the Maguindanu natives who rushed over, some people were lifted off their brains by one chlorine, and the pink brains flew into the sky, and some people were shot through the chest, and the blood flowers that burst out of their chests spewed out a misty mist. The crossbow arrow, which had a great momentum, even shot a hole through the natives in the front, and the crossbow arrows that did not lose momentum shot the natives behind them to the ground. Such a terrifying and cruel shooting method simply formed a dense web of death around the Tang Army's tortoiseshell array. With the fierce blow of the Tang army, a large number of Maguindanu natives immediately came to the end of their lives. Their twisted corpses, along the large shield of this entire shape-shaped array, were stacked like a mountain, forming a shocking circular corpse array. In this way, after coming into contact with Tang Junfu, the natives who were heavily killed and injured immediately retreated. After this close contact attack, more than 1,000 natives were killed and wounded, and more than 120 soldiers of the Tang army were stabbed to death on the spot by the natives. "Into the, don't stop, shoot three more volleys, shoot these dogs to death for Lao Tzu!" Li Haoran's face was hideous, like a fierce ghost, and his teeth were gritted loudly. "Whoosh, swish......" More than 8,000 crossbow arrows were shot out, and the Maguindanu soldiers, who had not fled far, were shot down again with screams. This round of volleys by the Tang army caused the deaths of at least 700 natives. At this point, the Tang Army's formation was very stable, and the entire tortoiseshell formation seemed to have taken root, and it was difficult to shock and shake it. And those natives stormed this formation, except for leaving nearly 2,000 corpses, a total of more than 280 Tang troops were killed, and other than that, nothing else. All the Maguindanu natives howled and fled into the village of Ba Mao, never coming out again, and it seemed that they wanted to rest and fight again. However, Li Haoran felt that they didn't want to fight anymore at all now, in a short period of time. These Maguindanu natives are definitely thinking that when more reinforcements arrive, then when it gets dark, they will re-encircle their own military formation, and then take advantage of the darkness of the night to use their strength advantage to kill their own Tang army. These ugly natives who have entered the dog, how poisonous their intentions are! Li Haoran was hesitating whether to immediately organize troops and urgently attack Bamao Village, but suddenly saw that at a stone at the entrance of Bamao Village in the distance, there was a Tang Army soldier lurking in it. "Chief, it's Tan Sangou!" A guard next to him pointed at the soldier and screamed softly. Li Haoran was also stunned. Only then did he think that when he sent the six soldiers to rush into Bamao Village just now, that Tan Sangou was neither killed nor returned, but he didn't expect that he was hiding here. It turned out that Tan Sangou wanted to flee with those crossbowmen, but when he heard the tense sound of dense bows and arrows firing from behind, he suddenly screamed in his heart, so he hurriedly dodged on a big rock, and only luckily dodged this round of deadly arrows. Hiding behind the stones, he immediately remembered to play dead motionless in order to shoot away the Maguindanu natives who had fled back from the outside as they rushed into the village. After all the Maguindanu natives had entered the village, they carefully propped themselves up and looked out through the cracks in the stones, and saw a man standing on a high platform among the natives, covered in red paint and with feathers on his head, looking like his general. So, Tan Sangou quietly loaded the three crossbow arrows, and then kicked the bowstring with his foot, and was holding his breath and concentrating, quietly sticking the arrow into a hole next to him, and then squinting his right eye slightly, aiming at the indigenous general.
