Chapter 1022: Enclave Defense (29)

The angry counterattack quietly kicked off.

The Legion's skills burst in the Qiang people's pile, sounding the clarion call for an all-out counterattack by the Zhulu Army.

The bursting yellow light had not completely faded, and the white soldiers and the divine battalion had rushed out of the defense line without hesitation and launched a pursuit of the retreating Qiang.

A similar situation has occurred many times in the past few days. Although the Deer Chase Army has always taken a defensive position, it has never missed when it can take advantage, and it will take the opportunity of the fire bull tactics or the Qiang people to catch up and beat the water dogs, killing and injuring the enemy's living forces as much as possible, with little risk and great benefits, and those who know the soldiers will take advantage of it. Therefore, the Qiang people did not raise their vigilance against this pursuit at first, anyway, they would retreat after a certain pursuit, which was not a big deal.

However, this time, the Zhulu army had no intention of withdrawing its troops, and after chasing through a few passages, they were still not satisfied, and continued to advance towards the original fence defense line, and people continued to rush out from the depths of the stronghold, and the Qiang people finally realized that something was wrong.

The Qiang warriors who were stationed close to the front line soon received orders and hurriedly went out to block the offensive of the Zhulu army. These Qiang people are reserves, and they originally planned to take over and launch the next wave of attacks, and they have long been ready for battle, and they are close enough to the front line to be able to go up at the first time. In terms of strength alone, the Qiang people have reason to think that this reserve force is enough for the Zhulu army to retreat in the face of difficulties, and at the worst it can buy time for the rear deployment.

The sudden initiative of the Zhulu army to launch a counterattack was obviously unexpected by the Qiang people, but the Qiang leaders generally believed that perhaps this was an opportunity. The continuous fierce battle has caused heavy losses to the Plateau Qiang, but so far, the Plateau Qiang forces are still several times that of the defenders, and the Qiang people have to admit that the combat effectiveness of the Zhulu Army is far stronger than them, however, the Qiang people also firmly believe that the Zhulu Army can achieve such results, which is the result of making full use of the geographical advantages, and now the Zhulu Army has finally left the painstaking battlefield and confronted the Plateau Qiang, and the Plateau Qiang just took this opportunity to kill and wound a large number of defenders in the field battle.

If the blow to the defenders is heavy enough, they even have a chance to break through the stronghold in one fell swoop!

In order to achieve tactical intentions, the strength of the front-line reserves alone is not enough, and it is necessary to exert all efforts.

Therefore, the Qiang people in the reserve received an order to delay as much as possible to buy time for the deployment of troops in the rear. The herald also specially advised: When necessary, we should not hesitate to lure the deer army to continue to go deeper, and no matter what the cost is, we must not surprise the snake and let the battle situation fall into a protracted war of attrition mode again. The Qiang reserve team was aware of the burden on their shoulders, and confidently stated that they would not scare the Han army away.

But they soon learned that such worries were unwarranted.

The two armies continued to approach, and before the Qiang people had time to deceive and perform, the Zhulu army had already taken the initiative to pounce.

Spear Fivefold Wave!

Wave after wave, tearing the Qiang people's already inadequate formation into a thousand holes.

The white soldiers charged ahead, and the divine battalion supplemented the swords behind, and in just two minutes, the Qiang reserves, which had high hopes, were beaten dizzy and fell into a bitter battle situation.

The white soldiers and the divine battalion cooperated for many days, and the individual combat ability was far superior to that of the Qiang people, and the advantage in chaotic battles was obvious. The outstanding strength and good tactical awareness made the soldiers comfortable in the melee, and they took the initiative to move closer to their nearby comrades, forming small groups to fight, cooperating with each other to rush and kill, and guarding each other's backs, and the advantages became more and more obvious. It didn't take long for the small combat groups to gradually converge into large combat groups, and more than a dozen circular formations were crisscrossing the enemy's formation, seemingly fighting separately, but in fact echoing and cooperating with each other, or intercepting, or outflanking, or supporting, or attacking, and the chaos of the Qiang people was constantly magnified.

The Qiang people were demoralized, but they did not lack the determination to fight for the group, and their first task was to buy time for their own side and gain the opportunity to completely annihilate the Han army, so although they fought hard, they still tried their best to resist the attack of the Zhulu army and sent people to the rear to ask for help.

The leaders of the Qiang people obviously didn't expect the reserves to be beaten so badly, and they had just started the battle for a short time, and they were about to summon reinforcements? But the precarious situation of the battle is obvious, and the five-fold wave of the spearmen of the Han family is by no means in vain, and it is completely understandable that they were beaten like this when they were caught off guard, and they quickly transferred a thousand-person team to support, and not long after, they transferred a second thousand-person team to help in the battle, and finally stabilized their footing.

The Qiang people have reinforcements, and the Baihe people are not alone.

The archers followed and rushed out to suppress the Qiang rear from a distance!

The Flying Stone Turret standing in the rear was disassembled and packed, and was taken to the front line by the Mo Family Mechanic, and in the dense click, the Flying Stone Turret was being reassembled. Although it takes time to assemble, the sound is enough to make the Qiang people mumble, to be honest, such a war weapon has never been seen by the Qiang people on the plateau. When the flying stone turret was assembled, the mechanics were not idle, and one by one the trap beasts appeared on the battlefield, and quickly bypassed the battle area of the two armies, cooperating with their archers to block the Qiang reinforcements. The trap wolf that spits out the tongue of fire, the trap tiger that can pounce on the bite, and the small trap dog that gallops all over the field, stirring up the second wave of Qiang reinforcements.

In all fairness, the combat effectiveness of these trap beasts is not against the sky, and it is difficult to get rid of the fate of being destroyed by the fire after being surrounded, especially the Qiang warriors have more heavy weapons, and the damage to the precision-assembled trap beasts is particularly great, if the Qiang people deal with it carefully, it is not difficult to annihilate these trap beasts one by one. However, it was the first time that the Qiang people encountered a trap beast on the battlefield, and when they encountered a trap beast that was clearly not a living body, the psychological impact on the Qiang people was no less than the first encounter with melon soldiers, and they were sincerely chilled by the endless strange methods of the Han army. Under such circumstances, it is obviously a bit difficult to expect the Qiang people to deal with it calmly, and it is already quite difficult to persist in fighting without defeat.

When the trap beast rushed towards the Qiang reinforcements, a large group of small melon soldiers in black armor also rushed over.

"Babble!"

The little melon soldier loudly declared his existence, and then rolled into the battlefield.

That's right, just get out.

Curled up in a ball, the round watermelon warriors rolled into the battlefield with bones, or hit the body, or secretly slashed the black knife, and greeted the Qiang warriors in three ways. If the Qiang people are not careful, they will be plotted by the melon soldiers, although they are usually just hit, and the occasional knife is not fatal, but the fighting style of the melon soldiers really makes the Qiang [zero point reading] people's eyelids jump wildly, and the taste of being stabbed barefoot by a mini knife, no Qiang warrior is willing to taste. What's worse is that the Qiang people have to face not only melon soldiers on the battlefield, but also Baihe people are all battle-hardened warriors, and the slightest flaw may be doomed.

After the Xiaogua soldiers entered the battle, the speed of casualties among the Qiang people accelerated significantly!

"Despicable!"

"The Han people use evil arts!"

"Can't wait any longer!"

"Let Shibi fight back!"

The patriarchs were furious, and they all looked at the Ox Qiang patriarch.

Sister Xiao is the nominal military advisor, but the current situation is completely beyond Sister Xiao's control, and the leaders of the Qiang people do not bother to continue to make false promises with him, and directly ask the actual leader of the coalition to decide, completely ignoring Sister Xiao's existence. The patriarch of the Yellow Ox Qiang was a little hesitant in his heart, the shaman had only arrived here last night, and he was exhausted from the dust, but the situation in front of him did not allow him to continue to hesitate.

"Okay, please Shibi!"

Shabi is the shaman of the Qiang people.

Shamans are clergy and have a revered status. The scriptures recited by the shamans are passed down from generation to generation by oral transmission between master and apprentice, father and son. The Qiang people believed that shamans could reach the gods and produce mysterious, incredible powers. Shaman prestige is even higher than that of the tribal patriarch.

Shamans need to rub themselves and collect rare resources that can improve their cultivation, and generally do not live in a certain place for a long time, plus the Qiang tribe has no fixed residence, and the destination is often inconsistent, the shaman usually needs to travel far away from the tribe, and his footprints are all over the plateau, but the shaman can enjoy the highest courtesy in any tribe, and the shaman will also help the tribe during his stay in the tribe, and the most common help is to cure diseases. Only a handful of powerful tribes are able to satisfy the needs of the shamans and thus have resident tribal shamans.

This also makes meeting a shaman like a lucky encounter, and when a shaman is needed, you may not be able to find someone.

The Plateau Qiang tribes involved in the enclave war, there were only three shamans who could be contacted at this time. Two of them happened to travel to the tribe to settle temporarily, and the only resident tribal shaman was from Huangniuqiang.

According to the usual practice of the Qiang people, the clergy did not intervene in secular warfare unless the opponent crossed the red line first.

The destruction of the plateau enclave was characterized by the Qiang people as a battle of honor for the clan, and this war should be completed by warriors, and it was not intended to ask the shaman to take action. However, the inhuman behavior of the spearmen of the Han clan could not be explained by common sense, and the leaders suspected that the Zhulu army had borrowed divine powers, so they immediately summoned the shaman. The original idea was to ask the shaman to sign goodbye, but after the melon soldiers appeared, the Qiang people were convinced that the Zhulu army was using divine power to fight, and it was logical to ask the shaman to take countermeasures, and the move of summoning the shaman in advance gave the plateau Qiang coalition army an additional powerful option in the current situation.

The three shamans soon appeared in the camp, and after seeing the melon soldiers, they agreed with the statement that "the Han people used divine power", and the melon soldiers of Peigua came from Taiping Dao and belonged to the scope of spells, which is an indisputable fact.

The priests began to recite their own scriptures and summon the Qiang gods.

While the leaders were nervously waiting for the gods to descend, the eldest shaman suddenly looked up.

His gaze looked in the direction of the enclave, and his face looked suspicious.

A middle-aged man was in the group of archers of the Han army, pedaling his horse and holding his bow and arrows, and the bowstring was pulled to the extreme. The next moment, the arrow turned into a brilliant golden ray and rushed straight into the sky, making a piercing sound in the sky, the golden ray turned into the arrow seemed to take away the light of the sun, getting brighter and brighter in the air, and the power and oppression of the arrow became stronger and stronger.

"Not good!"

When the elder shaman discovers the target of the arrow, it is too late to prevent the tragedy from happening.

"Run!" The shaman only had time to warn the Ox Qiang patriarch.

However, this arrow, the power is to the extreme, and it is also extremely fast!

Before the patriarch of the Yellow Ox Qiang could take a step, with an arrow with the power of destroying the world, he had already fallen to the earth like a meteor.

Meteors enter the body and are reduced to an arrow!

The huge momentum knocked the Ox Qiang Patriarch to the ground, pinning the Ox Qiang Patriarch to the ground, and the blood splattered the faces of several nearby leaders. The body of the Ox Qiang patriarch twitched unnaturally on the ground, his eyes were full of fear, and he held the arrow in both hands, as if he wanted to pull it out, but after all, he couldn't do anything.

This arrow sniped the leader of the Plateau Qiang Alliance!

And the middle-aged man of the Han army fired the arrow, more than 300 steps away from the position of the patriarch of the Yellow Ox Qiang!

There was silence.
