Chapter Eighty-Three: Encountering the Enemy

During the Chongzhen period, the Liukou and Tartars invaded year after year, and most of the local people would form a village in order to seek self-protection.

Right now, the rogues are attacking a village.

Xu felt that the progress of his men was too slow, so he decided to attack with fire, so he asked his subordinates to throw bundles of branches and firewood under the wall, and then used fire to ignite the firewood.

Since you can't attack it, then burn it with fire!

Anyway, the courtyard wall is only made of hardwood, and it can't withstand the fire.

It can be said that He Xiang's trick is extremely ruthless.

The fire was blazing, and the wooden walls were crackling.

The villagers stationed there jumped off the wooden wall unwillingly, and they were in despair.

The third wolf smoke rose into the air, and all the villagers were thinking of fighting to the death.

Outside the village, the rampant laughter of the rogues was still in their ears, and they were waiting for the fire to be extinguished.

As long as the fire is extinguished, the beasts dressed in human skins outside will rush in, how long can the hundred and ten young men in the village resist it?

Nobody really knows.

A few hundred steps away, Huang Degong ordered Xiang Yong to stabilize his breathing, and before the final sprint, everyone must maintain sufficient physical strength.

The fire gradually decreased, and the Liukou rubbed his fists, just waiting to rush in and kill, no one noticed that a group of people and horses were quietly surrounding.

The rogues were careless, they only placed two secret sentries a hundred paces away, and the rest of the men and horses gathered in one place.

The secret sentry did not fulfill its duty, and was soon slashed and killed by Huang Degong, and he didn't even have time to warn.

The fire was finally extinguished.

The rogues howled and rushed into the village.

Huang Degong waved the spear in his hand and gave the order to charge.

The high wall of logs was burning with black soot, and the unburned wood made a crackling sound, and the smoke drifted in the wind.

Inside the wooden wall, the villagers in the village are desperate, without the wooden wall, what can they do to resist the ferocious mountain bandits?

Seeing that the wall of fire was extinguished, He Xiang finally couldn't hold it back, he didn't care about the pungent smoke, and rushed into the village with a scream.

Liukou suddenly made a noise, the rules of Liukou, first come, first served, there are not many young people in this village at the moment, if they are all killed by He Xiang, won't the rice, grain, property and women be occupied by him?

The other leader, who was still a little skeptical, finally waved his hand and said, "Brothers, kill!" ”

The Liukou are full of energy, and they are very familiar with dealing with the villagers, as long as they kill the young people in the village, the remaining old and young women and children have nothing to fear.

At this time, there was a sudden shout of killing from the back of the rogue.

At first, Liukou only thought that his companions on the mountain were making a loud noise, but then he suddenly heard several terrible screams.

Wrong!

"It's the official army! The officers and soldiers are coming! Finally, the creature looked back, and the sight of it suddenly made him lose his mind.

Densely packed officers and soldiers, dressed in robes with the word "brave" and spears in hand, were slowly coming in a neat queue.

Shicai's screams were because of the sound of several rogues who were left behind the palace after they were assassinated.

The leader of the Liukou also rushed into the village at this time, he flew the head of a villager with a knife, and was about to laugh wildly, when he suddenly heard a big mania in the back, and suddenly looked back, he suddenly let out a terrible scream, "There are officers and soldiers!" ”

He Xiang was killing happily, and when he heard such a shout coldly, he almost missed his companion.

Huang Degong's silver helmet and bright armor, and the tiger and tiger wielding the iron spear.

"Kill!"

The eighty villagers were all natives, and when they saw the village in ruins and the rogues slashing and slaughtering, they suddenly became angry.

Who is parentless? Who has no wife or children?

The only trace of timidity that was originally there had been was a trace of anger filled with anger.

The dry land was trampled by angry big feet, but fortunately, at this time, the formation of Xiang Yong was not chaotic, they did not rush quickly, but maintained a uniform speed, and slowly moved forward.

After all, the hard training close to the end of the month was not in vain, and at such a critical juncture, no one in the village escaped and no one was left behind.

The rogue was in front of him, but Huang Degong did not impatiently wave his army to cover the kill, but led the pikemen to calmly crush forward.

Intimidated by the neat formation of the villagers, for a while, no rogue dared to rush into the battle to resist.

They have seen many officers and soldiers, but they have never seen such a neat line of officers and soldiers as today.

When did Guangling come to such an elite? It's a question that is on everyone's mind.

There is only one road outside the village, and although the road is full of officials and soldiers, as long as they dare to risk their lives, they will definitely be able to rush out.

Moreover, there are only 100 officers and soldiers, and if you fight hard, maybe they will fall!

"Quick, rush over!"

Some of the more sensitive guys also shouted loudly, "Kill, it's just a hundred officers and soldiers, what are you afraid of!" ”

The rogue was originally robbing happily, but he heard coldly that the back road was robbed, and they were all six gods without a master.

Is there really only a hundred officers and soldiers?

In the panic, no one wanted to stay and fight.

The village warriors under Huang Degong lined up in four horizontal teams, each with 20 people, each separated by one foot.

The length of the entire array is a hundred feet, that is, about fifty meters.

The village was surrounded by wooden walls, and the width of the burned walls was about a few tens of meters, but there were more than 200 rogues pouring into the village, and it was obviously difficult for so many people to rush out together in a short period of time.

Chaos is inevitable, and no one wants to be left behind when life and death are at stake.

Huang Degong was not afraid, he shouted loudly, "Steady, steady, don't panic, when they come, stab out together."

The various commanders in the queue also spoke out to encourage their companions, among them were veterans who had followed Wang Teng many times, and these people told their companions in words that there was nothing to be afraid of, and a single shot could stab the heart.

As time passed, the enemy he faced was no longer the enemy he had been.

Today's villagers are better armed and more well-trained.

"Sonorous", short-handed handover, the rogues who have no fighting spirit are bent on fleeing, where are they willing to fight to the death?

The village warriors had a long spear with a wooden handle, and the seven-foot-long wooden spear had almost no opponent after forming an array.

One by one, the rogues who rushed in a hurry fell under the spears.

Huang Degong stood in the center of the array, but for a while, no rogue came to charge the battle.

Most of the rogues rushed to the wings under the guidance of He Xiang.

As a result, the pressure on the left and right flanks of the spear formation suddenly increased greatly.

Huang Degong made a quick decision, he pulled out ten people from the center of the formation, and each reinforced two wings, so that the pikemen in the center of the formation were only two layers.

The tight array suddenly became thin, and He Xiang was overjoyed to see that the opportunity he had been waiting for had finally come.

"Rush out of the center with me!" Without any warning, He Xiang led dozens of subordinates to rush towards the core of the big array.
