Chapter 177: Qianjun

This is the first time Gu Yanzhang has seen the real battlefield.

Looking at the dense figure opposite, a layer of fine sweat involuntarily oozed from his palms and forehead, and the hip flesh on the horse's back trembled with his heart.

At this time, the "confrontation between the two armies" that used to be in the academy and lined up with each other had all become mere talk on paper, and the countless victories of his classmates and soldiers were like dust, blown gently by the wind, and even the ashes could not be seen.

The leading soldier rushed up quickly, and almost in the blink of an eye, he stood head to head with Gu Yanzhang.

He had been on the battlefield many times and had a lot of experience, and when he saw the scene in front of him, he gasped and said in a lost voice: "Armored team!" ”

From a distance, the Beiban on the opposite side were holding torches high, although the illuminated place was not large, but it was enough for people to roughly see the color of the clothes they were wearing.

A dull, thin layer of armor.

The elite of the Northern Barbarian Army will wear such a dark armor on their bodies, which is made of rattan wood and fine iron, which cannot be said to be invulnerable, but ordinary attacks have almost no effect on them.

Four or five hundred elites in dark armor!

Gu Yanzhang's heart tightened.

He squinted his eyes and looked down the mountain.

Although the road down the mountain was gentle, it was very narrow, and in addition to the fifty or sixty soldiers who relied on their own nearest five or sixty soldiers to attack, the hundreds of Northern Barbarian soldiers behind were disciplined and lined up in three teams, which was in a state of rapid march down the mountain.

- Xu Da's twenty people didn't have any impact on their movement at all, or maybe Xu Da and they were all slaughtered by the other party as soon as they walked out of the corner of this section of the cliff shield.

At this time, although the Beiban queue in front turned its head, it still maintained a queue of anxious marches, presumably waiting to find out the details of their group before making arrangements.

In an instant, a layer of cold sweat oozed from Gu Yanzhang's back.

I still remember that when I was in the security army, I arranged reinforcements to go into battle, Yang Kui divided the security army, the Zhenrong army and the reinforcements from other states and counties into three large battalions, and camped separately in the shape of horns, and at the foot of this Jinping Mountain is a large camp of reinforcements from other states and counties, about 10,000 people.

Compared with the other two large battalions, the combat effectiveness of this place is undoubtedly the weakest, and for this reason, they were placed at the foot of Jinping Mountain, considering that they had a back mountain to rely on, and they were not easy to be raided.

Heavy snow covers the mountain, there is only one road in Jinping Mountain, which is the path for Gu Yanzhang and others to transport their baggage and lead to the military camp, which is controlled by the Great Jin, and the other end is extremely steep, almost impossible, who would have thought that there would be brute soldiers climbing the rock? !

From here to the camp below, it is only a descending mountain, and the distance is about ten miles, and if a well-trained soldier marches in a hurry, it only takes half an hour to reach the camp.

There are wheels and scouts below, and so many people and horses will fall from the sky, and they will definitely be discovered as soon as possible.

Four or five hundred people, against thousands, and deep into the enemy camp, even if it is elite, it is impossible to win.

Unless......

There must be a big move before the Northern Barbarian Formation!

It is said that the soldiers are not expensive, such a team of elites, don't look at only four or five hundred, if there is a strong attack by a large army in the front, they will attack from the front to the end, and it is the most vulnerable camp, as long as they come and go quickly, so that the rest of the two battalions can not be rescued, it can really make Dajin suffer a lot of losses.

Gu Yanzhang took a deep breath.

At this moment, there are only one hundred and twelve weak soldiers on his side, even if you add those people who have never been on the battlefield, there are only more than two hundred people, escorting heavy baggage, against more than twice as many elites as themselves, let alone winning, there is not even a good chance of escaping.

Besides, abandoning the baggage and running away is no different from a deserter, this is a stain on eternal life, and if you are caught, even if you can leave the head of the neck, you can't get rid of an exile.

You can't escape, you can only fight.

But how do you fight?

Rushing to face it head-on is tantamount to hitting a stone with an egg.

didn't have time to think about it for him, and the dozens of Beiban after the break had already rushed up silently.

The two sides were only thirty or forty feet apart, and under the almost rapid impact of the brute soldiers, they could already see the shape of the armor on each other's bodies.

Standing beside Gu Yanzhang, the leader who led the team almost screamed at the soldiers, shouting, "Release the arrows!! ”

After all, weak soldiers are also soldiers, many of them have been in battle, and when they encounter such a situation, although they are panicked, they are not to the extent of being at a loss, and soon, everyone draws their bows, winds them, and sets up arrows, and a rain of arrows shoots down in unison.

At this time, from top to bottom, it is a tailwind, and by taking advantage of the momentum, the other party has lost a few people, but it is only a few.

The Beiban paused for a moment, and then quickly hunched up again—wearing armor, if it wasn't for the shot on the vital point, it wouldn't be able to inflict much on them.

The soldiers on the top of the mountain were another rain of arrows.

Because he was standing in front of the formation, almost immediately, Gu Yanzhang noticed that this time his own strength and rhythm of the salvo were much weaker than the last time.

If it goes on like this, there is no need for those northern barbarians to turn their heads at all, it is these dozens of broken people who are enough to kill the more than 200 people in their own house.

And although he did not find a way to get more accurate information, with the patchwork of details known today, he could also guess that if these Northern Barbarians were called to rush down seriously this time and cooperate with the main attack, the Dajin battalion soldiers below would definitely be killed by surprise!

Can't wait!

But now he had only one hundred and twelve soldiers, and hundreds of men, and many chariots......

Wait a minute!

Gu Yanzhang held his breath, shook the reins, turned the horse's head, and grabbed the west horse under his crotch, almost galloping to the rear.

The place at the top of the mountain is very gentle, the place is not small, the baggage has gathered here, I heard Gu Yanzhang's loud warning earlier, and the people behind are at a loss, they want to escape, but they don't dare, so they have to stand in place in fear.

Looking at the mule carts that stopped abruptly, but were still neatly arranged, Gu Yanzhang breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, he glanced at the convoy and the people behind him, and shouted: "Where is the leader of the first column?!" ”

A middle-aged man hurriedly rolled out.

"Pull the twenty wagons of your column to the front! The sooner the better!! ”

Along the way, Gu Yanzhang helped Xu Da to do things up and down, and he was already quite prestigious in the team, although everyone in the team was flustered at this time, they could listen to his orders, but those who were ordered were all honestly shaking and driving the mule cart forward.

The first twenty mule carts were just dropped by him, and at this time they were cloth and wine.

Fortunately, it is not far from the front.

He drove the people forward as fast as he did to the corner.

The northern barbarians had already advanced a few zhang further, and the two places were about to meet each other, and the barbarians carried the long bows on their backs and the long knives they held in their hands, in the torches and the dim morning light, looked particularly hideous and terrifying.
