Chapter 3: A Crazy Counterattack
"Chapter 3: Crazy Counterattack"
The hot sun shone on the earth, the military camp in the distance was clearly visible, there were no plants in sight on the desolate land, and there was loess everywhere. With the gallop of a horse, there are bursts of loess flying behind. A soldier was in a hurry, just before he arrived at the barracks, hurriedly dismounted and ran into the battle. 'Report to the general, the spies ahead have spotted the enemy,' a soldier hurriedly reported.
'What? Enemy? How many people, come quickly? The general stood up and asked coldly.
'There were tens of thousands, but all cavalry!' Coming from the direction of the hidden road! ''Hmm! What is cavalry? Got it, I order you to continue to spy on the enemy's movements! ''Yes!'' Subordinates understand! 'Although the ironclad army has won a small victory for many days, it is thrilling every time, and each time it is a self-inflicted loss of 800 before the enemy is annihilated, is it not a way to go on like this? Shangguan Mu has been in the army for many years! He was an orphan who entered the barracks in order to fill his stomach, and he was appreciated by the marshal for his hardships and hard work, wit and bravery. I don't forget to be good to myself.
Wu Sangui was also puzzled when he saw the movement of the enemy army, and the two sides fought for many days. Originally, both sides were seriously injured and should be corrected. It seems that things are not as simple as they seem!
'Order the front to keep a close eye on the situation of the rebels?' Is there a quick report of the situation? βγ
'Subordinates understand! The spies hurried out, then mounted their horses and ran away! Only a faint piece of loess was left flying.
In the city of the hidden road, several big people gathered together to discuss the war.
'A fierce charge should be launched with our cavalry first!' Crush those arrogant enemies and let them taste the power of our cavalry? Going to trample them to death? Dadar said proudly.
'Prince Dadar, we know your cavalry is powerful, but they are limited! We have limited troops, we can't compare with them, we have to act rationally, we can't joke with the lives of our own soldiers! Cha Mulong persuaded.
Shall we wait until they are rested to slaughter us and our own people? Dadar asked unwillingly.
'We have to think of the best of both worlds, the enemy on the opposite side is the ironclad army of Western Xia, and they are well equipped! And with an ironclad soldier, it is difficult for our cavalry to break the integrity! We've got to have a good job,' Hyams said meaningfully.
'Guys, I've got a way to deal with the enemy's ironclad formation,' said Jack, the chief of the Shatje tribe, with a slight smile.
Everyone was amazed! Hurriedly asked, 'What is the plan of Patriarch Jack!' Tell me about it? ''I didn't bring many troops with me when I came from Saudi Arabia!'' But I have brought many camels, if we charge in front of them with camels! The cavalry followed closely behind, and the camels rushed through the ironclad formation, and the cavalry could bravely rush forward! What do you think? If it's feasible, I'll ask my subordinates to hurry up and prepare? After Jack finished speaking, he smugly used his hands and bearded repeatedly.
'This is a good idea, I think it will work, and I hope that Patriarch Jack will prepare as soon as possible!' Three days later we will attack the enemy in full! Dadar said excitedly, as if he had already won?
It's not yet dawn! It gives a gray feeling, with hundreds of thousands of opposing armies on that flat land. The four allied forces had been prepared for a long time, and each soldier held a steel knife in his hand. The cavalrymen watched the enemy forces ahead.
The Ironclad Army prides itself on the integrity of the Iron Arm, and they have defeated countless enemy armies with great achievements. On the left and right flanks are their own cavalry, and in the center is Tie Azheng. They can nibble forward step by step. Directly behind the squares are the archers, who hold their large bows and are ready to shoot arrows to kill the enemy.
Looking at the four coalition troops wearing sheep or cowhide clothes, every soldier of the Iron Armored Army was very proud! Even if they dare to take out a weapon like theirs, everyone is despising the four armies in their hearts.
'Marshal! Today the enemy forces are a little weird, every time they charge back at us, but not today? The old Qin Dawu said suspiciously.
'No matter what tricks they play, we must destroy them today?' ''Marshal! Do you want me to bring a cavalry to harass them and see what they're up to? Qin Dawu asked.
'Yes! But understand that you must not fall in love with war! Wu Sangui touched his matching sword and said.
My subordinates understood!! Qin Dawu clenched his fists and said loudly.
With a burst of loess flying! The sound of Dada's horses' hooves was heard, and a black cloud flew over them! That's thousands of arrows. With the cooperation of the archers, the first attack of the Ironclad also began! When Qin Dawu approached the enemy army, there was also a burst of black clouds flying towards him, 'Oh no, the enemy has also released arrows!' Thinking in his heart, several cavalrymen around him fell with a scream, and even the horses were full of arrows. A lot of people are red-eyed, and the brothers who were together yesterday have fallen to the ground today. Kick the horse's belly hard with your foot and continue to charge forward!
The enemy did not fight back and did not retreat. It looks very orderly in the face of danger! It seems that there is really a conspiracy? With the beating of several war drums. Qin Dawu stopped holding the reins of his horse.
'All retreat! Hurry up, back away! All retreat! Qin Dawu shouted with his big sword on his horse. The soldiers who heard the sound began to retreat one after another!
'Dear Leader! We can attack now, right? Dadar asked anxiously.
'Prince Dadar! Don't be in a hurry. There must be the best timing in the attack, and it is not good for us to act blindly. There are large areas of land waiting for us to conquer in Western Xia, and we can't do great things in a hurry? Cha Mulong said leisurely, ignoring Dadar.
The soldiers who had just withdrawn had not rested for a while when they saw the enemy suddenly split a gap in the middle! There are a lot of big animals running around in that crevice? The loess was rolling in the back, like a nightmare rushing towards people.
'Look! What is that? The clever outpost noticed the situation on the other side and said in surprise.
'Bad? Marshal, that's a herd of wild camels! Rushing at us? What to do? The young lieutenant asked his marshal. In his heart, the marshal is the most powerful, he is the best in everything, and his decisions are all right. A loyal lieutenant!
'Pass my orders!' Archers release arrows! Iron Party A is preparing to go up and destroy those brutes? Wu Sangui shouted angrily. He never expected the enemy to come to this hand.
Thousands of wild camels are running! They all have a skin on them. Inside is the Tianshan Divine Oil [a kind of gasoline that is the same as the current gasoline, mainly used for flammable materials used for lighting] At this time, the arrows on the archers of the coalition forces behind were wrapped in a cloth dipped in Tianshan Divine Oil, and there was a burning torch next to each person, which could be lit in an instant.
Crazy camels rush to the ironclads! Each soldier clutched his sword tightly in his hand, and his heart was uneasy in the face of the crazy enemy, not all of them were warriors. Are there warriors on the battlefield, and there are just madmen and dead people!
400 meters!!!!!
200 meters!!
100 meters!!
Getting closer! Dusty! With the sound of the collision, the two sides kicked off. The ironclad army is most proud of their iron armor, they have the highest quality armor and the sharpest steel knives. In his left hand is a sturdy shield, and in his right hand he holds a steel knife. The shield was in front of him, and the knife in his right hand slashed forward quickly! One by one, the camels came down.
Gradually, a lot of camels came down! There were also casualties in the middle of Tie A, and slowly a camel began to rush into the square, although it was quickly killed, but more and more people charged in! The soldiers were tired and could not stop the frantic attack.
There are so many rushing in! He also cut a lot of leather bags, and a red fire cloud flew over quickly, and it ignited the Tianshan Divine Oil that flowed out of the leather bags. The fire burned rapidly, and so did the soldiers. Tie Jia Jia Zheng also began to stir, watching his army defeated. Wu Sangui's face was like ashes, and he couldn't save the fiasco of the battle!
The fire is burning, taking the lives of the young soldiers! The cavalry on both flanks and the enemy army have been fighting together, and it is difficult to separate!
Maybe retreat is the only option to preserve your strength! No matter what, you have to preserve your strength, the current empire is not what it used to be, and the entire imperial capital is in chaos. A coup d'Γ©tat may soon take place, and the current emperor of Western Xia is very faint and incapable of governing the country and traitorous ministers. How can an emperor who is lazy and hardworking be a good emperor. You must preserve your strength, Wu Sangui is not a good person, there is no good reward for good people in the world, and bad people will be in charge. There was not enough confidence to fight, and how many soldiers died on the battlefield. 'But the king's affairs in the world can make things happen in vain.' The life of a soldier!
The four-part coalition army took advantage of the victory to pursue, and the cavalry of the four-part coalition army rushed towards themselves brandishing broadswords! Retreat! His subordinates began to lose confidence, and the frontal enemy was so strong, he really underestimated them for many days!
After a day of brutal fighting! I have lost half of my troops, and if I continue to fight like this, my old bottom will be exhausted! Then in this snobbish empire, you will be worthless. For his own sake, he will never fight to the death, and the most important thing is to preserve his strength.
The sky was dark, and a faint wind blew the blood-colored earth. The barracks were quiet. Patrols came and went vigilantly walking in the barracks, and occasionally there was a groan of pain!
Barracks in the tent! Wu Sangui discussed military affairs with several major generals.
'Marshal! The last general thinks we should ask the imperial capital for help? We can't go on, we've lost a lot? The shrewd veteran Qin Dawu said.
'Marshal! I think what General Qin said is in the way? Can't we go down? Liu Yong continued. During the day, he lost the most cavalry, nearly half of them were killed and a small half were wounded. There are very few people who can fight now, and the mood is very dull now!
'Marshal! We can't be in the fight! This army is your brainchild, huh? The generals pleaded.
The night is dark! In the darkness of the night, a few horses gallop out! The target is the Imperial Capital Dragon City. After deliberation, it was decided to ask for help from the imperial capital, and it was not yet dawn! The call for help is that the soldiers have already set off!
