Chapter 59: The Fox Mountain Thieves Who Were Slaughtered
"All the new soldiers, listen to a certain order, 1234 tuns to meet the enemy, 56 tuns to protect the two wings, and 7 tun to prepare. The two captains on the left and right are on standby. Fan Yong, who was riding a horse, yelled. Since there are no heralds among the new pawns who have been trained in Guoqi language. So this battle could only be commanded by Fan Yong and a few of his followers yelling.
And on the other side of the battlefield, the plum monkey also completed his whole team.
"Up, give it to me, kill one person and reward three buckets of food, and those who retreat die." The plum monkey roared and ordered.
However, the old and weak in the first echelon are not stupid, they know that they are cannon fodder and substitute ghosts. Although the reward is good, you must have a life to take it! What's more, in the face of the well-equipped and powerful Saigo Shinzo, they don't think they have a chance to survive. Ants still steal life, let alone flesh and blood people?
The scene suddenly froze, although the plum monkey offered a lot of reward, but the old and weak people in the first team were reluctant to step forward. The good-faced plum monkey suddenly had a little unbearable on his face. He even faintly heard the taunt of some nasty ghost.
The angry plum monkey glanced at his cronies. directly pulled out a knife and slashed down an old man who refused to come forward, and the old man fell to the ground and struggled a few times before dying. There was a boy of more than ten years old next to Lao Suo, and his face looked somewhat similar to Lao Suo. After seeing Lao Sue being hacked to death, he hurriedly threw himself on Lao Sue and cried. The plum monkey, who was a little perverted in his heart, grabbed the boy's hair directly and dragged the boy up.
Looking at the boy's eyes, which were full of sadness and fear, and at the same time hidden a trace of hatred. Mei Monkey laughed and said, "I know that you hate me, and I can't wait to eat my heart." I also know that you desperately want revenge. Maybe you might have a chance when you grow up. ”
Suddenly, the plum monkey's voice became low: "It's a pity that I won't give you this opportunity." After saying that, the plum monkey put the knife on the boy's somewhat blackened neck. The boy seemed to know what was going to happen. Desperately struggling for mercy. But it was useless to face the strong plum monkey, and the knife gently wiped it over. Blood-red blood flowed from the boy's throat, and the boy tried desperately with his hands to cover the wound and stop the blood from flowing out, but to no avail. The plum monkey threw down the boy and made him lie on the ground and wait quietly to die.
The surrounding fox mountain thieves witnessed all this, and their eyes were filled with angry rage, but more of them were helpless and numb.
The plum monkey yelled hideously, "Who wants to be next? ”
The old and weak in the first queue were scared. It is often said that fear turns into despair at the extreme, and despair at the extreme can burst out with great power.
After Mei Monkey's cronies killed a few more old and weak people who had stopped. These old and weak are in despair. Unable to face the plum monkey butcher's knife, they let out a desperate roar and rushed towards the new pawn of Saigo.
In troubled times, they are the most pitiful existences. They are cannon fodder, substitute ghosts, the first objects to be abandoned, and the lowest existences. It may even be food for standing and walking.
But now they have become meritorious in the eyes of the new pawns in Xixiang. Wretched! Not needed on the battlefield. Sympathize! Not needed on the battlefield either. Weakling! The strong are just stepping stones to get promoted to wealth.
"One, two, three, four javelin attack." Fan Yong yelled.
As the main attacker, the new soldiers of Situn lined up a javelin attack under the command of their respective false commanders.
The javelin attack sounds like it is related to javelins, but it is actually related to javelins. It is different from the pawn configuration. The equipment of the new pawn is much worse than that of the warrior. The new pawns were armoured only by the first row of heavy sword and shield men and the second row of spear and shield men, as well as light soldiers on both flanks. The rest only had armor and no armor. However, compared to the martial arts, the new pawn has one more offensive weapon, that is, the solid wood javelin. It can be regarded as an exclusive medium and short-range attack weapon for new pawns. Worn by the last two platoons of pikemen of the new soldiers, usually three.
The making of a solid wood javelin is very simple and crude. It was to attach a small iron tip to the front of a wooden barrel. The production cost is very low. Can be equipped on a large scale. Moreover, the iron tip of the solid wood javelin is easily damaged after being hit. So don't worry, after the solid wood javelin is thrown out, it is thrown back. Of course! The lethality of the solid wood javelin is not very good, and if it is an armored infantry, then the effect is very poor. But if it is a bunch of unarmored and shieldless fox mountain thieves in front of him, the effect is very good.
"Solid wood javelin ready to go!" The men in charge of directing the javelin attack shouted.
Fan Yong nodded with satisfaction and ordered loudly: "The fox mountain thief entered our army within fifteen steps and attacked on his own. ”
"No!" The commander of the javelin shouted.
"Thirty paces to the thief." The head of the new pawn Santun who was in charge of observing shouted.
The Fox Mountain Thief was already very close, and the heavily armed sword and shield soldiers in the first row of the new pawn Santun could clearly see the majestic and resentful expression on the Fox Mountain Bandit's face. But the recruits were dismissive. A group of old and weak, running more than a hundred steps in a row, what impact can they have. But no one is going to take it lightly. Again, on the battlefield, be careful.
Yu Yu, the head of the new Santun fake tun, shouted: "Anti-collision formation!" ”
"Hah!" The sword and shield soldiers at the front have been changed to hold shields in both hands. The spear and shield men in the second row raised their shields horizontally, and the short guns were placed at an angle of forty-five degrees against the tower shield in front of them. The pikemen in the third and fourth rows stuck their spears in the slit between the two shields.
"Thief to fifteen steps." The head of the new pawn Santun, who was in charge of observation, shouted again.
"Solid wood javelin attack! Throwing! The new soldier Santun, who was in charge of commanding the javelin, shouted.
"Wind!" More than 20 solid wood javelins flew directly towards the Fox Mountain Pirates. In the face of solid wood javelins, these unarmored and shieldless fox mountain thieves have no room for resistance. More than 20 solid wood javelins directly took the lives of eight or nine fox mountain thieves, while leaving four or five wounded. However, with the current medical methods, with their status in Fox Mountain, the probability of these wounded people surviving is infinitely close to zero.
The lucky ones who didn't fall under the first solid wood javelin attacks. In front of the new pawns, their good fortune also stopped. Many fox mountain thieves directly collided with the spears of the military formation, and a few fox mountain thieves crashed into the shields, but they had no effect at all, they were too thin. He was either stabbed to death by the spearmen in the second row, or hacked to death by the heavily armed sword and shield soldiers who had just drawn their swords.
After leaving dozens of corpses and wounded in front of the new soldiers' formation, the Fox Mountain Bandits hurriedly retreated.
The old and weak of the Fox Mountain Thieves were defeated by the new pawn army formation. The plum monkey didn't even have a chance to send a second wave.
After the angry Mei Monkey led a few cronies to kill a few deserters, he stabilized the situation of the rout a little.
"Everybody to somebody." The plum monkey shouted angrily. He also saw that the gap between the attacking Fox Mountain bandits and the Xixiang Army was too big. There is simply no possibility of winning. Now it's time for him to complete the task given to him by the other leaders.
Everyone goes together, and it is also orderly. The first were the old and weak, then the young and strong, and finally some of the old battalions and some archers on the fringes, while the plum monkey led his cronies to stay at the end as the overseers.
"Again!" The new pawn Santun fake tun is long Yu Yu disdainful.
However, Yu Yu still shouted loudly.
"Attention, cubs! The fox mountain thieves are going to fight hard. If you don't want to die, focus Lao Tzu's attention. ”
"After the remaining two rounds of attacks on the solid wood javelin, hurry up and pick up the spear for Lao Tzu to join the military formation."
"The sword and shield soldiers changed back to holding the shield in both hands and gave it to Lao Tzu to resist."
"Fifty paces to the thief!" The head of the new pawn Santun, who was in charge of observation, shouted again.
Yu Yu shouted loudly: "Prepare for the impact!" ”
Fifty steps is not a long time. In an instant, the Fox Mountain Thieves rushed over, and under the bloody oppression of the Mei Monkey and his cronies, the Fox Mountain Thieves broke out with amazing combat power. Fearlessly, he rushed forward. Started hand-to-hand combat with the new pawns.
"Stay in formation! The enemy is blunt, and the sword and shield soldiers draw their swords to fight! Yu Yu shot the fox mountain thief in front of him and shouted.
In the face of the Xixiang new pawns with tight arrays and armor, the poorly armed Fox Mountain Thieves could not form effective damage at all. Although they were able to hold each other for a short time, the price was the death of a group of Fox Mountain thieves. After the last two rows of pawns who threw solid wood javelins joined the battle, it became even more difficult for the Fox Mountain Thieves to hurt the pawns. In the distance there were tight formations of spears, and in the near distances there were short spears and steel knives. The Fox Mountain Bandits were mechanically slaughtered by the Saigo Shinpao. Except for a few of the new soldiers in Xixiang who have undergone blood rites and harsh training, the rest do not have the slightest discomfort.
Just when the Hushan thieves had a fierce battle with the Xixiang Situn new pawns in front, the five and six tun newcomers had quietly detoured back to the two wings of the Hushan thieves. A three-sided siege was formed against the Fox Mountain bandits. The fox mountain thieves who had already fallen into the disadvantage were about to collapse in an instant.
"It's time!" Looking at the defeated fox mountain thieves, Fan Yong stroked his beard and smiled.
Fan Yong roared: "Order, the longbow team covers the shooting." ”
"Order!" From the beginning of the battle to the present, the two captains of the longbow team, who were a little impatient, gladly accepted the order.
"All the longbowmen are ready, the target is the Ding area, and the bow is full of light arrows*. Shoot! The two Longbow captains ordered together.
"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!" Dozens of long arrows fell from the sky at a time. The light arrow in the state of the longbow is full of bows, and even the leather armor can be shot through within a hundred paces. What's more, these fox mountain thieves who have no armor and lack a shield.
The most pitiful thing is the old battalion and archers at the back of the Fox Mountain bandits. As the biggest combat power of Hushan this time. Directly crushed by the powerful longbow.
In ancient wars, those who were able to hold on to three layers of losses without rout were already considered elite. Obviously, in the face of nearly two hundred casualties, the Fox Mountain Bandits have collapsed.
Some greedy Fan Yong sent light soldiers and spear and shield soldiers to pursue, trying to take the opportunity to capture the walled gate. But obviously, Fan Yong was thinking too much. After letting the plum monkey in, the fox mountain thief closed the gate directly. sent more than 400 fox mountain thieves outside directly to Xixiang.
Fan Yong was a little helpless, so he had to command the new pawns to capture the escaped fox mountain thieves to prevent them from escaping and harming people. However, Fan Yong's mood is still quite good, after all, his debut today was a success.
