The battle lasted almost all night from the beginning to the next day.

The Southern Dynasty Iron Cavalry launched five charges in succession, each more ferocious than the other, but they were all repelled by the Apocalypse Guard stubbornly.

It wasn't until the sixth charge that the Southern Dynasty army finally rushed to the position and began to fight hand-to-hand with the Apocalypse.

At the beginning, the Apocalypse Guard relied on its strong street fighting ability to firmly occupy the upper hand in the battle for position, but the number of enemies was too large, like an endless locust, going forward one after another.

The tactics of the Southern Dynasty army to consume the lives of the Apocalypse Guard finally began to work, and after half an hour, the Apocalypse Guard gradually began to retreat, and the signs of complete collapse became more and more obvious.

Looking at the entire battlefield, on the surface, the Southern Dynasties had a huge military superiority and the initiative on the battlefield, and they could completely divide and surround this small position, and then dispatch a large army to annihilate it in one fell swoop.

But in fact, they were completely unable to fight like this, because Xu Rui chose the best place to quickly build fortifications.

First of all, this small old tree hill is backed by the stretching mountains of Tianhe Pass, and the rest of the surrounding places are full of cliffs except for such an entrance for dozens of miles.

And Xu Rui planted many mines behind the position, even if the Southern Korean army climbed the cliff, it was impossible to get close to the position, which dispelled the possibility of the Southern Korean army completely encircling the position.

Secondly, although the front of the old tree hill is an endless open area, which is very suitable for cavalry charge, but the old tree hill itself is not large, like a trumpet-shaped terrain, the closer to the old tree Qiu forest, the smaller the space.

Therefore, even if the Southern Dynasty had tens of thousands of troops nearby, it could only send thousands of cavalry each time, otherwise once it rushed under the old trees and hills, tens of thousands of troops would be crowded together and become live targets for mines, grenades, and artillery.

Finally, the old tree hills are the entrance to the mountains, and behind them are the winding mountains, if the army of the Southern Dynasties fights too fiercely, the Apocalypse Guard can completely drill into the mountains and never show their heads again.

Zhong Qingyuan, who had suffered the big loss of Liuqingshan, really didn't want to go to the mountains with Xu Rui to play a game of cat and mouse again.

Of course, if the Apocalypse Wei enters the mountains, he will have to give up all his baggage, and the artillery and the Apocalypse Chariot are destined to become the trophies of the Southern Dynasty army, which is definitely an unacceptable result for Xu Rui, and he will definitely not take the initiative to enter the mountains unless he is forced to do so.

Therefore, the two sides have their own ghosts, the Southern Dynasty wanted to use the method of boiling frogs in warm water to drag the Apocalypse Wei at the foot of the mountain to encircle and annihilate, while the Apocalypse Wei wanted to hurt the enemy, so that the Southern Dynasty army would not dare to attack.

In this way, the two sides launched a life-and-death battle on the battlefield.

At the beginning, Xu Rui used artillery and trenches to gain the upper hand, but Zhong Qingyuan was not an ordinary person in the end, and in the case of holding the initiative on the battlefield, he chose the stupidest, the biggest loss, and the most effective refueling tactic, trying to use a wave of fierce impact to consume the Apocalypse Health to death here.

And now, this tactic is about to achieve the final victory.

The Southern Korean army not only used the return artillery to knock out the artillery position of the Apocalypse, but also took advantage of the cover of night to rush to the front of the position and start a melee.

And once it fell into a melee, the Apocalypse was like a deep quagmire, and it was no longer possible to retreat into the deep mountains with his whole body, and the balance of victory seemed to have begun to tilt.

"Ahh

Tang Xin roared wildly, holding a repeating crossbow and shooting wildly, more than a dozen crossbow arrows burst out "whoosh", and the enemy a few meters away was immediately shot into a hedgehog and fell down silently.

An Ge kicked away the corpse that had fallen on his body, got up from the ground, and said to Tang Xin: "Thank you!" ”

As soon as the words fell, Tang Xin's face suddenly changed, and a terrifying sound of breaking wind immediately hit An Ge's eardrums.

An Ge was shocked, and subconsciously raised the round shield on his head, and there was a loud sound of "dang" above his head, and he only felt that his arm was sore, and a big axe slipped down from the round shield, rubbing out a string of sparks.

It turned out that several more enemies rushed to the position, jumped into the trench from overhead, and attacked An Ge without hesitation.

The giant axe in his hand was a strong man from the Southern Dynasty, but he didn't expect that the giant axe weighing thirty catties not only failed to split the small round shield, but a hole was broken in the axe blade.

The man was shocked, and hurriedly kicked on the shield fiercely, kicking An Ge and his shield to the ground, and then lifting the battle axe again and slashing at An Ge's chest.

At this moment, there was a sharp pain in the man's back, and the strength of his body began to drain rapidly.

The man was horrified in his heart, and subconsciously looked back, only to see Tang Xin throw down the black phoenix crossbow that had emptied the magazine, pull out his scimitar and rush over.

The man's eyes were dark, and he died, and the two comrades-in-arms behind him quickly filled his gap, one of them held a long knife and pounced on Tang Xin, and the other held a long knife and slashed at An Ge on the ground.

Tang Xin was worried about An Ge's safety, his eyes suddenly turned red, and he slashed at the Southern Dynasty soldier who rushed towards him.

With a sound of "dang", the long knife in the hand of the Southern Dynasty soldier broke in response, and his eyes widened, as if he couldn't understand why the knife in his hand was as fragile as a wooden stick.

And what made him even more incomprehensible was that his head fell off like this, which was inexplicable.

It turned out that Tang Xin used the sharpness of the scimitar to cut the Southern Dynasty soldiers and their knives in two.

However, at this moment, another knife suddenly stabbed behind the Southern Dynasty warrior who had just fallen, and slashed straight at Tang Xin's throat.

"Oh no, it's a trick!"

Tang Xin's pupils shrank, and Fang Cai's knife used all his strength, and there was no room for maneuver, and when he just slashed a knife, the enemy immediately killed him, so that he didn't have time to dodge at all, so he could only watch the long knife approach the vital point.

It turned out that the second Southern Dynasty soldier killed An Ge with a false shot, and his real target was Tang Xin, who was worried about An Ge.

Seeing that the long knife was about to harvest Tang Xin's life, several crossbow arrows suddenly penetrated from the body of the Southern Dynasty warrior.

The Southern Dynasty warrior was shocked, the long knife in his hand instantly lost its strength, and he fell to the ground with his body, revealing An Ge who was holding the black phoenix crossbow behind him and half-lying on the ground.

"I walked again before the ghost gate closed......

Tang Xin let out a long breath, ignoring the cold sweat all over his body, he rushed to An Ge with a brisk step and pulled him up.

"Let's go!"

Tang Xin snorted and was about to pull An Ge to retreat to the rear position, when suddenly a thumb-thick bow and arrow whistled and hit him in the head.

Tang Xin's face froze, and he didn't even have time to exclaim before he fell down on his back.

"Tang Xin!"

When An Ge saw that Tang Xin, who was still alive and well a moment ago, died in front of him so suddenly, his eyes suddenly split, his nose was sour, and tears blurred his vision in an instant.

Sadness on the battlefield was definitely a superfluous emotion, and several Southern Dynasty soldiers ignored the corpses of their comrades and killed Ange.

"Die!"

An Ge let out a loud shout, and pulled the trigger of the Black Phoenix Crossbow with all his might, and more than a dozen crossbow arrows immediately poured out, and the two warriors who rushed to the front were immediately shot to death, while the people behind them still rushed towards him indifferently.

"Da Da Da ......"

The crossbow arrow had been emptied, and An Ge casually threw away the black phoenix crossbow and pulled out the scimitar with his backhand.

However, he was still young and had never studied martial arts, so how could he be the opponent of the fierce Southern Dynasty warriors?

In the blink of an eye, he was surrounded by three Southern Dynasty warriors, and three cold long knives slashed at him.

Suddenly, under the light of the fire, a cold glow pierced the night and fell on everyone, and after a breath, An Ge stood in place, and the three Southern Dynasty soldiers fell to the ground in unison.

An Ge, who thought he was going to die, suddenly turned around, only to see Han Qi holding a sword, standing behind him with a murderous aura.

"Good kung fu!"

An Ge subconsciously praised, although he didn't know martial arts, he had seen many masters with Xu Rui, and he could see that Fang Cai's sword was by no means simple.

"Let's go!"

Han Qi said in a deep voice, then grabbed An Ge's wrist and retreated to the rear position.

At this time, An Ge realized that Han Qi's entourage had already died and fell on top of the position.

Not only them, but even the comrades-in-arms of the guard battalion were also sacrificed, and only he and Han Qi were left on the entire battlefield.

At this time, two more Southern Dynasty soldiers chased after him, An Ge was shocked, and was about to draw his sword to fight, but heard Han Qi say: "Hurry up, don't worry about him!" ”

As soon as the words fell, the two Southern Dynasty soldiers who were chasing and killing were empty, and a big hole appeared in the originally solid ground in an instant, and the two of them were caught off guard and fell headlong, and were pierced into meat skewers by the spikes buried in the pit.

An Ge remembered that Han Qi had taken a strange direction when he pulled him past that place, as if he had just avoided the middle road.

He suddenly realized that there were still many traps hidden in this position.

On the other side, Zhang Zuofeng's central position had also been lost, and he and the remaining soldiers retreated into the rear position, and the few remaining heralds behind him blew a strange horn and let out a low "whine" sound.

Cao Siyuan was covered in blood, and with all his strength, he cut down two Southern Dynasty soldiers, and finally rushed to Zhang Zuofeng's side, leaning on the trench and gasping frantically.

"Everybody...... Has everyone withdrawn from the front lines? ”

Zhang Zuofeng asked eagerly, he was also panting heavily, and the vicious battle lasted almost all night, and everyone reached the limit.

Cao Siyuan struggled to prop up his body, raised his head and looked out, only to see that the forward position was densely packed with human figures, but there was no green Apocalypse Guard, and the forward position had been completely occupied by the Southern Korean army.

In general, the trenches, though winding, were in general directions two concentric circles, consisting of the forward positions on the periphery and the mountainside positions in the rear, and beyond that were the tents and the hidden valleys where the baggage was kept.

"The horn of retreat has been blowing for so long, there should be no more of our people on the forward position."

Cao Siyuan said solemnly.

Zhang Zuofeng breathed a sigh of relief, raised a torch and lit the small ditch beside him.

The ditch, about two fingers wide, ran down the trench to the forward position, and was filled with oil.

It's like a lead that quickly transmits the flame to the forward position, igniting the explosives buried under the forward position.

"Boom!!"

There was a violent explosion, and the entire hill shook violently, and the flames and dust were thrown into the sky by the blast wave of the explosion, and then rained down again, and the forward position became a sea of fire.

As the buzzing sound in the ears of the Apocalypse Guardians sounded, the world finally quieted down, and the nearly 1,000 enemies crowded on the forward position were killed in an instant, and the sixth charge of the Southern Korean army was also announced.

The silence lasted only a brief moment, as huge boulders and lit oil barrels fell from the sky again, and at the same time, the sound of horses' hooves sounded again, and the seventh charge began.

With the fierce battle of the night, the infantry and artillery coordination ability of the Southern Korean army is also improving at an astonishing speed.

At first, in order to avoid accidental injury, the cavalry would only charge after a round of artillery bombardment, which would leave a precious respite for the Apocalypse.

And now, they no longer leave time like this for the Apocalypse, when the return cannon stops, that is, when the cavalry rushes to the foot of the mountain.

"This horse's hooves are not right, much heavier than before, this time it's the Black Flag Army!"

Cao Siyuan felt the vibration of the earth and said solemnly.

As soon as he finished speaking, an explosion suddenly came from the jungle hundreds of meters away behind him, and Zhang Zuofeng's face suddenly changed.

"Someone in the back triggered the mine, the Southern Dynasty people touched it from behind, the minefield is at least two miles wide, how could they run so close to trigger the mine?!"

Listening to Zhang Zuofeng's stunned self-talk, Cao Siyuan suddenly remembered the jungle battle of the reconnaissance company, and said with a wry smile: "The Silent Annihilation Army came behind, and they have mastered some demining techniques. ”

"What?"

Zhang Zuofeng was shocked in his heart, if it wasn't for the fact that the Silent Annihilation Army that sneaked up from the rear was not up to par, and finally stepped on the mine, no one would know that they were directly touching the position from behind.

But even if you know it now, it won't help, after a whole night of fierce battles, the Apocalypse Guard has no strength left to face the attack from both sides.

Zhang Zuofeng sighed: "The Wuling pro-army is really powerful, first it consumed us all night, and finally sacrificed the killing move of the Black Flag Army and the Silent Annihilation Army to attack on both sides, our army is still small in the end, and the strength is not enough......"

As he spoke, he closed his eyes in pain.
