Recruit good soldiers, Zhang Fan packed up his mood and walked out from the side door of the barracks, now countless people at the gate of the barracks are looking forward to it, waiting for him, the legendary number one master in the world, to appear, he doesn't want to be surrounded by these players!

Since several people have official positions, it is much more convenient to recruit soldiers than other players, and soon after Zhang Fan came out, others also came to the previously agreed meeting place, compared with Zhang Fan's sad face, the others did not know that the price of soldiers in Anxi City was much more expensive than other cities, so there was no special reaction.

With 30,000 silver as funds, the strength of several people has made a qualitative leap!

Meng Qing: 50 sword and axemen, 10 archers.

Qin Yao: 10 shield infantry, 20 archers, and 60 ordinary soldiers.

Iron wall: 60 shield infantry, 30 pikemen.

Yanyang: 70 cavalry, 10 ordinary soldiers.

Zhang Fan: 142 archers and 70 robbers!

The total strength of the five people combined actually exceeded 500 people!

This is a powerful strength that no player can match at this stage, and what is even more commendable is that these soldiers are not subdued by yellow turbans or militia indiscriminately, but are real strong soldiers!

500 soldiers may seem like a large number to others, but for Zhang Fan, who has fought with hundreds of thousands of troops, it is really not too much, this is only a small group battle, and it is also the best way to hone team cooperation!

The soldiers are not expensive, the division of labor of the small team is very clear, Zhang Fan's army of archers and robbers are definitely the main force of output, Meng Qing's sword and axe hand melee combat is more advantageous, Yan Yang can rely on the strong mobility of the cavalry to do harassment or assault, the iron-walled shield infantry and pikemen are the first choice for defense, and can deal with an emergency, while Qin Yao can support everywhere and become a strong backing!

Offensive and defensive, flexible!

Zhang Fan is full of confidence, relying on this team, he will definitely be able to defeat enemies who are several times or even ten times his own, harvest a large number of combat exploits and resources, and pave the way for the next development!

After packing up, Zhang Fan's small group set off, their first stop was a large mountain 10 miles north of Anxi City, which was called "Yangshan" on the map, and there was a group of bandits entrenched, often plundering passing traders.

The 10-mile road is not too far, and after a while, the five people have already come to the bottom of the mountain and are forced into strategic mode.

Zhang Fan raised his eyes and looked around, carefully observing the surrounding terrain, a very typical mountainous terrain, only a wide avenue leading to the top of the mountain, surrounded by lush trees, there was no sign of human activity in his sight, and there were no outposts such as arrow towers, it seemed that these bandits were not well defended!

The troops moved forward cautiously, because they were marching from the bottom to the top, Yanyang's cavalry lost their due ability to maneuver, and had no choice but to hang at the end of the team and follow the large army slowly.

"Whoosh!"

There was a sound of breaking through the air, and a feathered arrow shot out of the dense forest, and an axe man fell to the ground.

"The response is very fast!" Encountering sniping, Zhang Fan did not panic, and controlled ten archers to fire a volley in the direction where the arrows were flying, regardless of whether they hit or not, and then approached the bandit camp on the top of the mountain.

The iron-walled infantry were scattered on both sides of the ranks, one for every three paces, always on the lookout for arrows flying out of the woods.

"Why don't you go into the woods and find out these bandits who have released cold arrows?" Seeing that the others didn't move, Qin Yao couldn't help but ask in confusion.

"Don't enter the forest!" Zhang Fan explained with a smile: "The sight in the woods is not good, the enemy can be difficult to find if he is prepared, and it is easy to be ambushed!" And because of the obstruction of the woods, the soldiers and the soldiers will be separated, and the enemy will have the opportunity to break them one by one, only to increase the casualties! ”

"Oh, that's it!" Qin Yao nodded thoughtfully: "Then if the enemy puts a large army into the woods and shoots at us along the road, won't we suffer heavy casualties and be very passive?" ”

"Haha! How is this possible! Meng Qingle on the side, he stretched out his hand and pointed to the dense forest beside him and said: "You see this forest is very dense, if the enemy's large army is hiding in it, because the distance between the trees will inevitably extend the battle line, it is difficult for the officer's orders to be effectively issued, and the communication between them is blocked, if we put another fire, they will not be able to run away, they can only bury the sea of fire!" ”

"Now the enemy's firepower is sparse, and it is estimated that only three or five sentries are hidden in it, so we don't care about it, just use the archers to make a little counterattack!" Zhang Fankong archers fired another volley, and several screams came from the depths of the dense forest, apparently someone who couldn't escape and was hit by an arrow.

Indeed, as Zhang Fan said, after a few screams, the enemy's bow and arrow harassment also stopped, and the five people came to the top of the mountain, the top of the mountain was dug very flat, and the cavalry of the hot sun gradually got better, and it was not a problem to gallop vertically and horizontally, and there was no enemy around, obviously they had already received the news and retreated into the cottage to defend.

The formation changed, Yanyang's cavalry circled to the front of the team, the iron-walled shield infantry followed, Qin Yao and Meng Qing defended both sides, and surrounded Zhang Fan's team of archers.

At this time, Zhang Fan looked at this cottage, the wooden cottage is about six meters high, and it is densely packed with bandits, and there are two arrow towers erected behind it, and there are more than a dozen archers on each arrow tower.

While Zhang Fan was looking at Dazhai, the thieves on the wallpile of the cottage were also looking at the group of uninvited guests in front of him, and after a while, a big man surrounded by many bandits in the center of the battlement sneered: "I thought that the imperial army came to encircle and suppress it!" Just this little force dares to come to my Yangshan to be presumptuous? ”

As soon as the words fell, a burst of laughter broke out in the cottage, there were 2,000 thieves in the village, so naturally they would not be afraid of Zhang Fan's 500 people!

"Retreat quickly, don't kill yourselves!" Dahan is the leader of these bandits, he waved his hand and said impatiently, although the number of people in this team in front of him is not large, but there are dozens of cavalry, if you really want to conflict, you are afraid that your side will lose a lot of manpower!

Although they are interested in the equipment of Zhang Fan and others, the bandits have always been mercenary, and they will definitely not do loss-making transactions!

Since he has come here, Zhang Fan will naturally not retreat from the battle, but the bandits are guarding according to the danger, and it is also a troublesome thing to arrive.

"Assault?" Seeing that the bandit didn't mean to come out at all, Meng Qing asked in a low voice.

"No! The bandit archers stand on the tower of the arrow, my shield infantry may not be able to defend, and because of the height advantage, their range will also increase, and it may be difficult to shoot them with archers, and the casualties of the assault are too great! Tie Bi shook his head in denial, frowned and pondered and stopped talking.

"I'll let Zhou Cang go to call the battle first and see if the other party will play!" Siege battle Zhang Fan is not the first time to encounter, generally at this time is to let the generals come forward to call the battle, if the other party fights, you can take the opportunity to kill or capture the enemy generals, if the other party does not dare to fight, it will reduce morale, which will help the next battle.

Of course, the premise is that your own generals are strong enough, if you take Guan Ping to call Ban Lu Bu, then you will really be self-inflicted!

"Do you need a famous general to kill some bandits?" Without waiting for Zhang Fan's order, Yan Yang led the horse out of the team and ran straight to the gate of the cottage, he bought a set of armor in the city and wore it on his body, and the brand-new three-pointed two-edged knife in his hand was shining with cold light, looking majestic.

"This battle maniac!" Zhang Fan smiled, but did not stop it, the battle before the battle will be the best way to improve the players who take the general route, which is very good for the growth of the force, and now the fighting spirit of the sun is strong, and the opponent is not strong, Zhang Fan is naturally happy to see it.

"I don't know if I'm alive or dead!" I thought that as long as I showed my strength, the unsightly army in front of me would retreat in a hurry, but I didn't expect the other party to dare to come up and call for battle, which made the bandit leader angry enough, and his eyes were bigger than copper bells.

"King, let me meet this kid!" There are bandits who volunteer to show their faces in front of people.

The bandit leader looked back and saw that it was his own cronies, named Wang Er, whose force was close to 20 points, and he was a rare brave person in the cottage, so he agreed after a little advice.

Wang Er got the opportunity, naturally elated, for the hot sun he didn't pay attention to it at all, on weekdays their cottage rampant here, he also fought with three or two people, none of them were defeated, at this time the eyes are above the top, thinking that no one is invincible.

As soon as Yan Yang called for battle, he saw the gate of the cottage open violently, and a person was killed from it, wearing a pair of tattered leather armor and a wooden spear in his hand, and rushed straight towards him.

He pursed his lips and raised his three-pointed two-edged knife to meet him, and the guy in front of him was just a little better than the yellow turban thief, and he really couldn't make him interested.

The two horses met, and the three-pointed two-edged knife in Yan Yang's hand swung violently, knocking Wang Er's spear away with just one blow, and cutting off his head with a single sword, and the battle ended instantly.

"The general is mighty!" The soldiers under the leadership of the five cheered in unison, their morale reached their peak, and their combat ability was improved again.

"Who else?" Yan Yang struck a blow, the sharp knife hung to the ground, and he screamed endlessly.

He specializes in one team, and has won many battles with others, and his strength has risen to 15 points, plus his moves are wonderful, and he can challenge beyond the level, and opponents below 20 points of force will not be able to defeat him!

Wang Er died, the morale of the bandits was a little low, and the leader of the bandits was even more angry, shouting: "Li Yu, you go and bring his head back to me!" ”

Li Yu is the most brave person under his command, good at using a long-handled mountain axe, born with great strength, the force value has broken through the 20 mark, reaching 22 points Cheng dù, not much weaker than himself!

This time, he sent the strongest man and vowed to take down the head of the enemy general to avenge Wang Er!

Facing the bandits who fought again, Yan Yang felt a little pressure, the person in front of him had a strong bloody aura, and a mountain axe flashed red in his hand, he was by no means an idle person!

He didn't dare to be careless, and he stared at it.

Li Yu glanced at his opponent coldly, rode his horse to kill, and in an instant he had already come to Yan Yang, and the mountain axe in his hand drew a semicircle from top to bottom, cutting at Yan Yang's head.

Although the mountain axe is heavy, Li Yu's action is extremely fast, he grabbed the first move, and directly cut it down with an axe, without putting the hot sun in his eyes at all, he has killed countless such people!

"Ahh Seeing that a little thief regarded himself as nothing, Yan Yang's heart was on fire, but the axe was coming in an instant, he couldn't attack and could only take the move, and he had fallen into passivity at this moment, and he suddenly roared in annoyance, and blocked it with a horizontal knife.

"Bang!"

The two of them touched, the mountain axe sank vigorously, and Li Yu was powerful, the hot sun couldn't resist it, and the people who were cut down took two steps back with the horses.

"That's a lot of strength!" Yanyang was overjoyed when he saw the hunt, and without waiting for Li Yu to continue the offensive, he rode his horse across his side, and the knife was used as a spear, stabbing Li Yu between the chest and abdomen.

I have to say that Yanyang has a lot of combat experience, and when he loses the opportunity, he finds an opportunity to attack, instantly counters the guest, and makes up for the lack of force with ingenious moves.

The speed of the opponent surprised Li Yu, his opening axe was heavy, naturally it was impossible to cover everything, seeing that it was too late to return to help, he had to turn slightly to avoid the vital place, and let Yan Yang's fatal blow stab him in the shoulder.

Don't dare to underestimate the opponent anymore, Li Yu retreated, and after a little tidying up, he pounced again, although his force was much higher than Yanyang, but firstly, Yanyang's moves were exquisite and flexible, and secondly, he had been injured because of the light enemy, and his strength was somewhat reduced, so now the two were evenly matched, and it was difficult to solve.

"Who do you think will win?" The battle in the field was a mess, Qin Yao was dazzled, and he was slightly worried.

"Don't worry!" Tie Bi smiled slightly, he had absolute confidence in Yanyang.

Although Zhang Fan didn't like to fight in person, he was also fascinated at this time, secretly wondering if he should also find a chance to give it a try, he said with a smile: "Don't look at the two of them now, but that thief obviously can't help Yanyang, but he is injured, and his combat effectiveness will gradually weaken, and Yanyang will definitely be able to take him down at that time!" ”

Sure enough, after a while, Li Yu's movements slowed down significantly, and Yan Yang saw the opportunity to slash his mountain-opening giant axe with one sword, and slapped it off the horse's back with another knife, and actually captured it alive!

"Haha!" Carrying Li Yu back to the team, Yan Yang laughed, this battle was comfortable, his strength was improved again, and he captured the thief Li Yu alive, although it was far inferior to the famous generals in history, but it was also a big help after the surrender.

After a while, the morale of his own side was improved, the momentum was unmatched for a while, and the whole army was jubilant, at this time, someone couldn't sit still, and the angry bandit leader personally rushed out of the camp, and immediately stabbed him, arrogantly shouting: "Rats, who dares to fight with me?" ”

This guy is riding a tall horse, with a set of bright silver armor looted from nowhere, but he is also a good look, coupled with nearly 30 points of force, he is in the limelight.

Looking at the bandit leader who jumped to his feet and scolded in front of him, and then looked at the so-called General Zhou Cang Zhou with an unknown face, Zhang Fan shook his head and smiled: "This is really a way to heaven, you don't go, there is no door to hell, you can come and vote!" ”

The battle did not surprise Zhang Fan, Zhou Cang captured the bandit leader without much effort, carried him like a chicken, and came back to Zhang Fan to ask for credit.

The bandits were defeated three times in a row, and even the leader was captured by the other party, and the morale instantly fell to the bottom, and he just wanted to close the gate of the village, but unexpectedly, the cavalry of the hot sun suddenly charged, and almost instantly rushed into the camp and launched a bloody killing.

Zhang Fan hurriedly commanded the large army to keep up, the morale of the bandits was low, the combat effectiveness was extremely weak, the arrows shot by the bandit archers who posed the greatest threat were crooked, almost no lethality, and the battle was surprisingly smooth, except for the 300 bandits who voluntarily surrendered, the rest were slaughtered, these are all experience, all military merits!

The first battle, a big victory!
