Chapter 383: Breaking the siege in a series of battles

The cavalry that suddenly appeared on the battlefield surprised both sides of the battle, and the timing of their appearance was just right, and the two sides of the battle had already faintly exhausted their strength, and the corpses were piled up on the ground, although there were only seven or eight hundred people fighting on the battlefield, but the corpses on the ground were far more than that. This situation makes everyone's hearts tight, the war has reached this point, and neither side has retreated, they are still fighting to the death, or trying to empty the last drop of each other's blood before they shed their last blood...... This kind of fierce and brutal battle was so fierce that the sergeants from Yunzhou quickly remembered the previous battle when the Blood Qi Army was actually stopped by the Daoming Sect's apologists. And in Yinan, if these tribal soldiers here who seem to have nothing to do with the elite have such resilience, then their trip to Yanan this time may not be so easy.

Under Liu Yong's command, a trapezoidal defensive formation slowly passed through the battlefield, and the soldiers all held their crossbows tightly in their hands, hanging their crossbows in positions ready to attack, carefully examining the tribal soldiers who had killed the red-eyed soldiers in this small clearing.

"Be careful!" Although they had put on a cautious posture of passing rather than interfering in the battle, they were still under attack. A guy who looked like a small leader, ** on his upper body, and painted with white paint all over the totem pattern almost didn't think about it, and threw a short spear casually, aiming at Guan Huan. For Guan Huan, this was just a trivial matter, and with a slight swing of the cavalry sword, the short spear was cut in two in mid-air and landed on his side. And just when Guan Huan was dealing with the short spear, the soldiers under Ye Tao's command faithfully carried out Ye Tao's order, and immediately launched a counterattack, and more than 100 people on the entire oblique side raised the crossbow in their hands and shot a short arrow, and a tribal warrior of unknown origin fell...... And this extremely asymmetrical casualty ratio not only did not make the other party retreat, but completely detonated the battlefield situation, no matter which side of the battle, they all rushed towards Ye Tao and their battle array.

What the hell is going on? People from other provinces are so hated in Yinan? Are you so jealous that you can ignore the war and casualties on both sides and work together to deal with it? However, these tribal soldiers actually hit the iron plate this time. After a loud bang, the first people who rushed up fell down. Although Zheluo is not here now, there are really a lot of sharpshooters in Ye Tao's guards who are slightly inferior. Bundles of arrows are indeed a test of the archer's precision, stability and endurance to control the strings, but even more a test is the endurance of their enemies, when the arrows accurately land in the eyes of their partners, directly into the brain, or through the throat, from the heart, anyone will have the urge to escape.

When the enemy finally approached, it was up to the tribal soldiers, who were almost all infantry, and those who wanted to show their presence in front of their current comrades. Ye Tao had never been more serious with the martial arts of this time and space, he knew that he didn't have the time and energy, and he wasn't that material. But just looking at the kung fu of Liu Yong, Jin Ze and others, it is actually a bit shocking. Now, however, the royal guards are in no hurry to behave, and the charlatans have begun to show off juggling events such as trapeze, and the sight of enemies flying upside down and falling on dirt, sand and stumps that cannot be climbed again is equally shocking. For these soldiers under Ye Tao's command, this kind of battle is not a warm-up, it will be over in half an hour, although some people have run, but everyone is too lazy to pursue, and after a little cleaning up all kinds of residues on the battlefield, especially arrows and other things, they continue to set off. A small encounter, no one was killed or seriously injured, and the most seriously injured was only a spear pierced through the calf by the enemy, which can be regarded as a hearty victory.

But what makes people more annoying is that after such a delay, the caravan behind me who doesn't know which one came up. Cautiously behind them again. This kind of off-the-shelf and cheap method made people have the urge to kill them back, but under Ye Tao's strict order, he still packed up the battlefield and immediately continued to march. If the other party can keep up, then it's up to them. In fact, Ye Tao still had a plan, and after quietly telling Liu Yong about them, everyone was quite understanding. Ye Tao is suspicious, and the wave of people who followed him were not business guys. Although the caravan is in pursuit of profits, it is still willing to take risks at such a time, but most of them are merchants who run a single gang, have no background background, and have the support of powerful forces in the caravan caravan business, and they will definitely not take risks at such a time. For them, sound business comes first. And the other party's so-called delivery of a batch of red goods, willing to share a certain profit, is quite a nonsense. Looking at the other party's twenty or so carriages, but there are more than 200 guards and men in total, there is really no goods that are so profitable. On this route from Beiyi to Yanan, ordnance goods, medicinal materials and spices, etc., are two-way flows, and the profit margin of paper, ink, dyes, pigments and other things is average, mainly relying on the number of stacks to be cost-effective, and the most profitable goods such as gems and jade are mostly reversed from Yanan to Xiling...... Ye Tao suspected that the other party, like himself, was also escorting people in the name of a business name. As for who to escort, why did he rush to send people to Yanan in such a hurry at this time, and who the other party's backstage was, it was unknown, but since there was this speculation, Ye Tao was ready to observe what the other party was going to do.

Leaving early in the morning, except for a little fighting before noon, there was no trouble until the evening, but after nightfall, the camp was simply set up, and everyone began to rest, but there was something unusual. The marvelous caravan that followed them was less than a mile away from them, and it was still behind them and not thrown off. However, after all, that "caravan" did not have as many professional observation equipment as special battalions and guards, nor did it have instructors with extremely high talent and ability like Zhou Rui to teach his various reconnaissance experience to the soldiers, and his early warning ability was not half a star worse than theirs, and he was actually bullied by a group of tribal soldiers to a place of only about 100 meters, and he was already faintly surrounded. And this enemy, who wanted to eat the caravan, naturally guarded against Ye Tao and his party, and hid a team of several hundred people between the two camps.

"What are you going to do?" Liu Yong still asked Ye Tao. Since Ye Tao had previously saved the mind to see what the other party was coming from, he would naturally not stand idly by at this time. Moreover, if this kind of battle is fought around them, it is actually impossible for them to ignore it. According to the results of Zhou Rui's investigation, after a rough turn, there were at least five or six hundred people from that tribe, which was quite a lot.

"Uncle Liu, what do you think? …… Night fighting, after all, is very risky. Ye Tao hesitated.

At this time, Zhang Wei spoke. "My lord, night battles are really not a big risk for the special battalion. You know, the most of our companies are mountain warfare and night warfare. I dare not say how much actual combat experience there is in this area, after all, our special battalion has not had many missions now. But the brethren are shrewd. If you really want to rescue that caravan, you don't have to worry about our combat power. ”

When Zhang Wei said this, he didn't seem so convinced. But his words are indeed very confident, although in this time and space, I am afraid that there may not be a night vision device for decades or hundreds of years, but the special battalion does not have to rely on those things to gain the advantage of night warfare. It's not just Zhou Rui, even Barrett is a commander who is very good at night battles, but Barrett's style is far from Zhou Rui. Zhou Rui likes sneak attacks and surprise attacks, while Barrett, a guy from the northern tribe, has a lot of experience in night raid operations. Those martial arts people who were temporarily assigned to the special battalion were not afraid of night battles.

After understanding the situation a little, Ye Tao ordered: "Pull out the camp." Pick them up and take them with you. …… And when I had brought them out, I brought their stewards to me. Hopefully, the other party's path is worth the risk. ”

Everyone answered yes and then went separately to set it up. And Zhou Rui, Barrett, and those guys who are good at stealth assassination who got the news didn't even wait for their own people to be in place to start moving, Zhou Rui silently touched the other party's four secret sentinels, and opened a passage for Zhang Wei to enter the caravan's camp to inform them of the current situation.

When small commotion began to occur in the camp of the "caravan", the tribal warriors attacked. It's just that they didn't expect that the special battalions, guards, and martial arts people behind them also launched attacks on them at the same time. There is really no suspense in the battle of mental calculation and unintentional. In the night battle, skilled and experienced martial arts people played a greater role. After two battles in the day, they finally earned enough face for themselves in front of the people of the special battalion and the guard battalion, and they didn't have to feel like they couldn't hold their heads up as before.

The battle lasted less than two hours, and at a small cost, the "caravan" was finally rescued, and the two groups were united. Although there was some disgrace before, being able to pull them in this situation was enough to clear up the previous embarrassment. Facing the steward who looked to be only fourteen or fifteen years old, Ye Tao could only frown.

The boy snorted and said, "Don't look down on people, you're not much older than me." ”
