Chapter 123: The First Battle [II]

The slave soldiers also knew that they were ready to send arrows now, even if they were a little afraid in their hearts, but at this time, fear inspired the fierceness in their hearts. The javelin in his hand was projected without hesitation. On the opposite side, there was a burst of "Poof! Burst! The sound of javelins into the flesh.

The power of the javelin was great, and it was like a sickle cutting grass, and the soldiers of the servant department who charged in front were immediately killed by almost twenty people, and the wounded were even more innumerable, and even some of the javelins pierced through the one person in front of them, not to mention, and pierced into the soldiers of the servant department behind. However, due to his nervousness and the first time he used it, only one of the two javelins was used, and the slave soldier took up the short sword and the small round shield to fight the enemy.

The crossbowmen also drew their short swords and axes from their waists, took off the oval shield behind their backs, and roared into the battlefield to support the slave soldiers on both wings.

"Go ahead, you can get everything! Stand back, you'll lose everything! Become a mockery of the servants! After death, you will not be blessed by the dragon god! Above! The servant roared angrily.

"Black bear, you go to the right wing command! I'm on the left flank, and we're going to press the servants to the middle, and let the spears penetrate them! Prick into a honeycomb! Although Xia Hu's mouth is not as incendiary as that of a servant, his wisdom and ability should not be underestimated.

When the black bear heard this, he responded and immediately went to the right wing, and Xia Hu roared without being polite, and quickly ran to the left wing. Because the two captains personally went into battle to supervise the battle, the soldiers on both wings were suddenly fierce by three points, and the soldiers of the servant department were caught off guard for a while, and involuntarily compressed to the Chinese army.

The servant Gu Gu did not pay attention at first, but led the Chinese army to continue to advance. But at this time, Yang Zilu formulated the spear as one foot and eight feet, and the benefits came out. This kind of spear can't be used in the jungle at all, and the soldiers of the servant department are completely equipped with their own weapons, to put it bluntly, if you have a little more money, then your equipment is better, if you don't have money, you go directly to the woods to pick up a wooden stick on your arm.

In this case, the weapons are naturally the weapons used for hunting at home, and most of them are short spears of about one zhang, and there are no long weapons that can exceed the length of the soldiers of the Nine Kuibu Division. What's more important is that the weapons are uneven, which leads to the fact that when attacking in a certain place, because of the advantage of length, the losses are a little worse, and some are on the weapon side, and the losses are heavy.

In addition, some soldiers on both wings were squeezed into the Chinese army, which made the Chinese army more crowded, and the movement of the spear battle formation was very monotonous, constantly pushing the people in front with their shoulders, and the people in front of them were holding shields in one hand and spears in the other, the pace was not fast, but it was unusually simple, constantly pressing up, and the soldiers of the servant department suffered heavy casualties for a while.

Servant Gu is not a mediocre person, otherwise he would not have been the next chief of the Servant Division. The number of servants in the department is only more than 1,500 people, so it is impossible for the servant to be lonely and rely on tricks to get to the top, he still has good ability. He soon discovered Xia Hu's plan, wanting to use the strongest spear battle array to consume the servants through the squeezing of the two wings.

"Two-wing assault!" The servant roared.

(As an aside, one might wonder why the servants didn't order the soldiers to retreat, regroup, and strengthen the flanks before attacking?) Theoretically, this is not wrong, if the servant Gu orders to retreat, the spear phalanx is characterized by strong frontal combat effectiveness and slow speed. And the troops on both flanks are too few, so it is very possible to catch up with meat buns and dogs. But in fact, in battle, it is a very dangerous thing for soldiers to look backwards, and retreating is even more likely to collapse. Retreating while fighting requires soldiers to have high military qualities. And the soldiers of the servant department obviously do not have this military quality. ）

But at this moment, a muffled thunder sounded, and a servant soldier couldn't help but look back, only to see a soldier on horseback who didn't know when to appear from behind. The fiery red robes waved in the wind, as if they were rolling fire. A battle flag embroidered with a cow was unfurled in the wind, a sharp spear shot a dazzling glare in the sun, and a roar came out under the iron hooves.

The soldier of the servant department was stunned by the fright, his mind was blank at the moment, and he didn't know what he should do.

Slowly, with the rolling muffled thunder getting closer and closer, at this time, not only the people in the rear have discovered it, but even the servant Gu Gu has also discovered the situation. Seeing that the Jiukui Division, who didn't know where it came from, actually appeared behind him and launched a charge, the servant was so frightened that his eyes were split and his heart was broken. yelled: "Quick! Twenty people, protect the back! ”

But when the servant Gu Gu gave this order, the servant Gu Gu was much more comfortable. Not to mention that fifty people are like a sika deer that has encountered a wolf, and they immediately turned around, and the speed and speed of the reaction are amazing! But soon, it was as if he had poured hundreds of catties of bitter water into his stomach. Because of the soldiers who turned around, instead of facing Yang Zilu's carefully trained cavalry, they threw down their weapons and fled from both wings, shouting strangely: "Run!" ”

Seeing the people he knew running away, and hearing the sound of running, the morale of the soldiers of the Servant Division, who had been fighting for a long time, suddenly collapsed. The collapse came so quickly that it was a bit of a reaction. It's like a big mountain, a moment ago it was completely standing under the blowing of the storm, and the tourists immediately became enthusiastic and recited a poem praising the mountain's strong demeanor under the heavy rain, but who knew that at this moment the mountain suddenly collapsed and turned into a mudslide. You say, isn't this a cheat?

But the servant is lonely, but his stomach is full of bitter water, not only can he not vomit, but he also has to suppress the nausea in his heart. The servant swore that if he could turn back time, he would say that he would not be willing to become the commander of this time, even if he gave up becoming the next chief of the servant tribe as a price, he would not hesitate to agree. However, in this era, there is no regret medicine to take.

Yang Zilu was originally very happy to see the defeat of the servants, but soon he couldn't be happy. I saw a cavalryman charge with a spear and kill a rout, which was nothing. The problem is that this riding spear is also naturally broken.

Yang Zilu immediately scolded: "Now all use big knives!" Battle-axe! Paralyzing! You guys who have broken their spears and paid for them at their own expense! ”

The cavalrymen, who originally wanted to learn from the previous cavalry to make a dashing sprint, hurriedly put away their spears. Riding spears is powerful, but they are not cheap. It takes three craftsmen half a day to change a riding spear from wood to a riding spear, and not counting the time spent cutting wood, it is different with a broadsword or a tomahawk.
