Chapter 222: Bounty
Ostriches that cannot escape when they encounter danger will just keep their heads close to the ground and use the environment to disguise themselves. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info such as camouflaging as a bush, or rock, to escape predators.
But when people saw them lower their heads, they thought that the ostrich had hidden their heads in the sand. In this way, the most famous legend about the ostrich was formed.
However, although this allusion is falsely spread and made by people for granted, in fact, this is also very revealing.
That is, some people, at some point, do have an ostrich mentality.
At this time, Li Dao's thief soldier is in this kind of mentality. Even if they knew that this big shield couldn't protect them, they would still think that this shield would be somewhat useful.
Moreover, even if it is useless, as long as they hide under this shield and do not see the boulder falling fiercely, they will feel a little safer in their hearts.
This is a very subtle psychology, and it is actually difficult to explain it clearly in one sentence or two. But in short, there is some psychological basis for this.
And these people at the hands of Ritsu Kagawa don't care what the psychology of the Li Dao thieves on the other side is, seeing that the enemy is still rushing over, their catapult attack will never stop.
WhewW......
Knock knock knock......
The huge stones were still being thrown out, and in the Li Dao array on the opposite side, the big shields were smashed down one by one, debris flew everywhere, and the personnel also fell to the ground one after another. This kind of charge is destined to be in vain.
At this time, Li Dao's face was already iron-blue. No matter what they came up with, it was impossible to resist the catapults, and in the end, it was all back to square one.
In this way, there is only a hard attack.
Continue to charge, continue to climb, and use the corpses of warriors to pave a road to Anyi.
At this time, Li Dao couldn't take care of it so much. As long as the ultimate goal can be achieved, what is the process?
"Rush, break through the camp of the thief and cut off his head, a reward of three hundred gold. The rest of them will break through their camp and reward each with 3,000 dollars! ā
Li Dao is starting to offer a reward. When the battle comes to this point, it's time to make some money.
Originally, I thought that Ritsukagawa only had five or six thousand people, and it was vulnerable to them. But now, they are fighting a stalemate with their opponents, how can Li Dao not be angry in his heart?
And when he gave the death order to attack the camp like this, Li Daobing finally slowly broke through the blockade of the catapults and approached the front of the camp of Ritsukagawa.
This is not a strange thing, the lethality of catapults is actually not very big.
Ritsu Kagawa used a catapult at this time, but he took advantage of a Li Daobing that Li Daobing had never seen, and psychologically shocked them, so he was able to stop them for so long.
There was a bounty incentive behind them, and the shield of the big shield made them no longer so frightened psychologically, and they also knew that if they didn't break through Ritsukagawa's camp, their lord would never stop the army.
In the case that there was no way to retreat, Li Daobing made a desperate bet, and of course they slowly rushed to the camp of Rikagawa.
At this point, Liu Zhi must be dispatched. Although Liu Zhi now has no military power, if he wants to regain military power, he must make meritorious contributions.
This doesn't need Ritsu Kagawa to say, Yanagi also knows. And the enemy came to their camp, not for meritorious service, but for survival, he had to fight.
Therefore, after Ritsukagawa's order, Liu Zhi led more than 3,000 people to rush out against the Li Dao thieves who rushed to their camp.
Li Daobing's matrix is four formations in one column, and four columns in one round. In one charge, they sent nearly 4,000 men.
It's just that the movement speed of the matrix is too slow, and when the first column matrix arrives in front of the camp in Ritsukagawa, the next three columns are still dozens of meters away, and they are still suffering from catapults!
Liu Zhi and the others rushed out so violently just to concentrate their forces. Eliminate your opponent as quickly as possible.
After all, although the first column of thieves, there were only a few hundred people who rushed to the front of their camp. But they had reinforcements behind them.
Don't take the time to destroy a little more of their living force when the enemy is now short of troops. The more opponents there are, the harder their battles will become. So they had to strike first.
Of the four formations of the first column of Li Dao's army, 900 people were only 700 people left when they arrived in front of the Ritsukagawa camp.
was already beaten by the catapult commanded by He Cai, and at this time, he was rushed out like a wolf and a tiger by a group of soldiers under Liu Zhi under Ritsu Kagawa. Slash at them. Killed them again, more than half of them were killed and wounded.
Fortunately, there are still a few columns of troops behind them, hold on for a while, and the follow-up soldiers will arrive.
The Li Dao matrix soldiers in the second and third columns finally caught up and broke through the tight blockade of the catapults, and these matrix soldiers also lost a lot of people.
At this time, even if they all rushed in, they would not have an advantage over Ritsu Kagawa's side in terms of numbers.
So Liu Zhi took the 3,000 people and started a white-knuckle battle with Li Dao's thieves outside the camp.
In hand-to-hand combat, Liu Zhi and they are not afraid of anyone at all. The mandarin duck array is set up to deal with these remnants, which is just a trivial matter.
But the other party wins because the army is sufficient, a group of soldiers are killed, and another group rushes up, even if the other party is killed and flees back to his own team, after a while, Li Dao will send several columns of matrix soldiers to attack before their camp in Ritsukagawa.
In this way, from morning to afternoon, in front of the camp of Ritsu Xiangchuan, thousands of corpses were already piled up, and Li Dao's soldiers were still in a steady stream, rushing towards the front of their camp.
The dead bodies before the camp, of course, most of them were Li Dao's thieves, and the casualties on their side were actually very small.
But after fighting for so long, Liu Zhi and the others are already very tired. It is impossible for a person to fight with people all day and still be in good shape.
People need to rest.
This problem does not exist with Li Daobing, they can escape, they can retreat, and, most importantly, they have a large number of troops and can be rotated.
Liu Zhi: If they suffer a loss, they will suffer here. They can't run away, they can't retreat, and they can't change it. They can only stay here and keep fighting.
Seeing that Li Daobing's two rounds of charge were repulsed, Liu Zhi and the soldiers were all tired, and Ritsu Kagawa was also a little distressed in his heart.
With more than 5,000 of them, it is really difficult for these subordinates to forcibly block the charge of more than 70,000 people on the other side, and it can be said that this is simply an impossible task.
But they had to do this, could they easily let Li Dao's 70,000 soldiers and horses enter Anyi? In any case, they are going to hold on for a while.
Even if they want to retreat in the end, they have to show each other that their five thousand people are definitely not easy to mess with.
Seeing that there was another round of Li Dao thieves rushing to their camp, Ritsu Xiangchuan suddenly shouted: "Little Wuzi."
