Chapter 20 Crushing by Stratagem
"Enemy attack!" Rugagao snorted. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
Dolly's side was still messing around, after all, they realized that this guy was not their boss. And the soldiers on Luga's side reacted, and immediately habitually the heavy armor soldiers in front and the light armor soldiers in the back, raising their shields to be on guard.
Before this side was ready, I saw the captain of the team of nearly a hundred people on the opposite side stretch out his hand.
"Huh, is Half Moon Town stupid? Send more than a hundred people to send them to death......" Dolly smiled, and did not arrange for his men to meet the enemy like Ruga did.
His words were soon interrupted by the overwhelming rain of arrows, and he saw the captain on the opposite side wave his hand, and the wave of archers directly raised their heads and threw them forty-five degrees, and the bows were not collected...... With five waves of arrows in a row, the momentum created was equivalent to a salvo of hundreds of people, and the coalition army of more than 1,000 people couldn't raise its head.
Fortunately, Ruga's side had already prepared, and most of the shields blocked the arrows, and the final casualties were less than a few dozen. And because Dolly's company did not prepare in advance, by the time everyone reacted, nearly 100 people had been damaged, and even Dolly himself was mercilessly stabbed in the shoulder by an arrow.
Dolly roared angrily, "Heavy armor soldiers take the shield, bow and arrow return fire!" ā
Ruga also gave orders to his subordinates at the right time, and the two wings often acted alone, and this time they attacked together, and there was no cooperation at all.
It's a pity that the bows and arrows of the two wings shot into the air, and after the archers on the opposite side shot five waves of arrows, they actually ran back more than fifty meters directly under the leadership of the captain. By the time the wing's attack arrived, the scouts were out of range.
The captain of this group of archers was naturally Puton, although he didn't understand why Wei Xu asked him to bring more than 100 people to shoot arrows and run, and then shoot again...... I heard Wei Xu say that this is called kite flying, what is a kite? Well, what Boss Wei Xu said, and he doesn't understand it, it must be something very powerful, just do it yourself.
Looking at the arrows that flew not far away and had no strength to fall, Puton's heart was refreshed. Hands were raised again, and the scout behind raised their bows again.
Wei Xu equipped the scouts with a proper steel bow, instead of the imperial bow, the steel bow is much stronger than the imperial bow, and the range is at least fifty meters more, and the effective distance of the bow and arrow is generally about fifty meters, and the projectile is far greater than this data.
With a wave of his hand, Puton flew out in five more waves. Seeing that the group of guys on the other side were so arrogant, Dolly immediately ordered to raise his shield and charge. Kill this wave of cunning archers at close range. Luga also didn't dare to let him venture alone, and ordered his own people to follow.
Puton's side saw that the other party ordered to chase him, and he thought of the order Wei Xu gave him before, "The other party chases you, you run, when the other party stops, you turn around and shoot, and when the other party retreats, you chase and shoot, and you have to control the distance between you, our weapons are better than the other party, and the range is much farther than the other party." ā
When the enemy advances, I retreat, when the enemy is tired, I fight, and when the enemy retreats, I pursue. Grandpa Mao's guerrilla tactics are a sharp weapon to defeat the enemy no matter what era it is.
After chasing and counterattacking, except for the carelessness of the Dolly United team at the beginning, which lost almost a hundred people, the next few waves were not much, and the total of the two wings was only more than two or three hundred.
The scout team of 130 people led by Puton was not scratched at all. The price of defeating more than 300 people on the opposite side was that all twenty arrows in the scout quiver led by Puton were missed.
"They have no arrows, rush me!" Seeing that the archers on the opposite side were running fast and couldn't catch up, and the retreating archers were stuck and beaten with no arrows, he immediately ordered to chase them, not caring at all that the wave of archers running into a forest might have lured him to set up an ambush.
Ruga grabbed Dolly, the impetuous guy, at the right time, "Slow down, don't worry, what if they have an ambush in the woods?" ā
"Don't worry, even if there is an ambush, there are only more than 500 people, and more than 1,000 of us are afraid of something." Dolly shook off Ruga's hand and didn't care.
When Luga thought of this, he secretly felt that he was too cautious, what was the difficulty of a thousand people fighting five hundred? Even if the five hundred were in ambush, it would not help, so they arranged for their men to follow.
When there were still fifty or sixty meters away from the woods, there was another wave of arrow rain in the woods, which made the coalition army that originally felt that the opponent had run out of arrows suffer a big loss again, compared to the first encounter, this time the loss was even greater, looking at the blurred figures in the woods, many soldiers were hesitant to go in.
This hesitation, the formation was a little chaotic, and one by one the light clusters came out of the woods, with a piercing eardrum-piercing scream hovering over the heads of the coalition army, and then dissipated one by one, and the coalition soldiers were made their chests stuffy and their eardrums bulged one by one. Looking at the chaotic team in front of him, Ruga had a bad feeling, and was about to shout for the soldiers to maintain discipline, when suddenly his face changed drastically, and he felt a slight tremor on the ground.
Cavalry!
"Gathering the !! of Defense" Lu Jia shouted, his face was no longer serious, but a little flustered.
Although the soldiers heard the captain's order, it was too late! With fifty heavily armored cavalrymen and spears lined up, he swept fiercely into the chaotic coalition ranks.
Due to the lack of effective defense, the cavalry squad took the lives of at least fifty soldiers in a single round of sweeping, and many cavalry even wore the corpses of two enemy soldiers on the barrels of their guns after rushing out. This is the power of the lancers, unlike in the past, which only exerted the mobility of the cavalry, the lancers brought the inertial power brought by the cavalry charge to the extreme!
After the cavalry rushed out of the coalition army, the heavy armored soldiers of 200 men held their shields, put their long swords on the edge of the shield, and shouted "one, two" in their mouths.
The soldiers at the back of the coalition army looked at this group of wolf-like opponents, and one by one they were so frightened that they took off their heavy armor and weapons and turned to run.
Here, Wei Xu saw that the opponent's morale was completely lost, and with another hand, a ball of light quickly flew in the direction of the coalition army's escape.
The heavy armor soldiers and the light armor soldiers behind them immediately stopped, the sword was inserted back into the scabbard, and the crossbow arrows were fired round by round in tacit understanding. The quiver behind the light armor soldiers in the back was filled in the woods, and they also began to throw arrows in unison...... There were screams again.
Seeing the defeat, Luga and Dolly were helplessly dragged back by the defeated army.
The mobility of the cavalry played a major role, following the deserters and reaping the lives of the soldiers of the wing again and again. Wei Xu and Wei Chen saw that the coalition army was defeated and retreated, and they each rode a horse to chase after the coalition army.
Wei Xu's hands kept releasing this thunderball technique, and one after another the coalition soldiers were electrocuted and collapsed to the ground, not knowing whether they were alive or dead.
Seeing that the only two people in the coalition army on horseback wearing the armor of the imperial standard officer were not far away, Wei Xu stepped up a few more times to urge the military horse under his crotch, while shouting, "Disarm and don't kill!" As soon as this sound came out, the deserter who was holding the two of them immediately squatted down for the most part, but the two people on horseback still galloped wildly.
Wei Xuxin said that these two people must be the commanders and captains of the two wings, and they must not be let go! Thinking of this, Wei Xu rode directly on the horse, picked up a thunderbolt rune with both hands and threw it more than ten meters in front of the horse.
With a "boom", the two were overturned from their horses.
Wei Xu jumped off the horse, and when the two captains of the wing fell from the horse, he and Wei Chen captured each other one by one.
There is no concept of so-called stratagem in this world, first Wei Xu arranged Puton's kite tactics to successfully consume part of the coalition army's numbers, physical strength, patience, and morale. Then another wave of arrows rained down in the forest, overturning the coalition's previous idea that "the other side has no arrows", which was another big blow to morale. Then coupled with a series of reasons such as the cavalry tearing apart the defense of the coalition army, and the momentum of the heavy armor soldiers gathering together for unity, etc., finally led to this battle example of winning more with less. In the end, it was counted that a total of 332 people were seriously injured and lightly injured by the captured opponents, while only a few cavalrymen in Wei Xu's team of 400 people fell from their horses and were slightly injured, and more than a dozen heavily armored soldiers were not lightly or seriously injured.
A few days later, Phokreis.
In front of the official messenger, Sidgail screamed as he tore the letter in front of him to shreds. Then, I felt a burst of qi and blood surging up my throat, and a mouthful of thick blood spurted out.
