Chapter 253: Meat Grinder

The next day, the soldiers on both sides began to set up. In the hands of the pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info Yan Hanshui, there are less than five hundred Mo knife hands, which is a real elite. These people are all in the position of the Chinese army, and Li Bin and many tribal generals are here to issue orders to the surroundings.

On the other side, too, the entire battlefield was silent, preparing for the final attack. Gu Gebi looked at the military formation on Datang's side, and his heart was also bottomless. The strength of the two sides is about the same, and even if they win in the end, I'm afraid they won't have many people left.

The sun gradually rose, Li Bin smiled slightly, and then let the herald not far away run down. Now that they are located in the east, the sun's rays have a lot of influence on the enemy's eyes. So the front army of the Don Army, about three thousand tribal troops. Each of them began to march with a mass-produced square cowhide shield, a bow, thirty arrows in a quiver, and a spear on their backs.

After all, this is not a regular Tang army, if it is a regular infantry of the Tang Dynasty, the number of weapons and arrows is even more than theirs. But after the implementation of the planned economy, the human resources of the tribe were developed for food and survival.

Gu Gebi on the opposite side naturally noticed this situation as well, and he looked up at the sky. "Let the death squad go up and block their attack. The sun is dazzling in the morning, and it will not exceed half an hour. Several of his leaders nodded, then gritted their teeth and went down to give orders.

Yan Hanshui began to be surprised, because she saw a group of tribal civilians with wooden sticks, stones, animal bones and other things, rushing towards the front army of the Tang Dynasty. "Is this suicide?" Yan Hanshui was stunned for a moment.

The leader of an alliance on the side said to Yan Hanshui, "The god of the raccoon, this is just their strategy. The purpose is to delay our attack, and to sacrifice the old people within the tribe who have no labor, in fact, before joining the alliance, our tribe will give up those people in many winters. He was a little embarrassed when he said this, which made Yan Hanshui sigh.

"In this place, the fittest survive. I was able to understand... But since they are our enemies, it's better to run them over. Yan Hanshui looked at those old people who were dressed in pieces and were worse than begging in modern society, and really didn't know what to say. After all, this world is like this, and Yan Hanshui can only accept this setting.

The soldiers of the front army took out their longbows, and then stopped to shoot their arrows. One of the generals in the center waved his hand to the front, and then several archers began to test the distance. The bow and arrow fell at a distance of about a hundred paces, forming a line. The archers who were trying to shoot shouted, "Throw! ”

When the group of refugees crossed the line, the soldiers of the forward battalion shot arrows directly with their bows. The first three rows of men draw their bows three times in a row, and then stop. Then there are three rows behind, which are thrown in turn. The 3,000 people were divided into nine rows, and the cycle continued. Most of those refugees had not yet rushed fifty steps before they had all fallen under the rain of countless swords.

But there are really a lot of these people, after all, they are all old people, or the kind that is frail and sickly. There were at least 8,000 people, so even if those tribal soldiers fired continuously with arrows, only a small number of them fell. After four rounds of continuous shooting, the group of refugees finally rushed over a distance of about fifty paces. Then the leader in front issued another order and began to collect his bow and exchange his spear.

The cowhide shield in the left hand and the spear in the right hand, Li Bin also asked them this in his usual training. Soon those refugees rushed into the Datang array, and the sound of puff weapons entering their bodies kept sounding. Gu Gebi watched all this indifferently until the sun gradually rose.

"Let Thorje lead their headquarters to attack and wipe out all those thousands of Alliance soldiers." Tojie is a good general under Gu Gebi. Tojie was loyal to Gugobi and was ruthless and brutal. He's really a good hand at this kind of offense.

Yan Hanshui also saw the enemy's movement, and she asked Li Bin on the side: "Do you need to lose the strength of other soldiers to help?" ”

"No, we've been training for half a year. The coordination ability of those people cannot be swept away by a group of people who are sent to death. Even if the enemy comes in a few thousand, there will not be much danger. But... The enemy should be put under some pressure and not be allowed to attack our front army so easily. Come on, let the light cavalry go and harass the enemy's left flank. Li Wei calmly issued an order.

Two thousand cavalry set out from the town on the Tang side and directly inserted themselves into the left wing tribe of Gugebi. The tribe found the cavalry coming, and naturally began to prepare for defense. However, their shields are not as good as those on the Tang side, and there are even a lot of wooden planks and the like. As the light cavalry passed by their phalanx, they began to fire a salvo directly on their horses.

The opposing tribe also erected shields to resist, but various types of shields still let the arrows continue to shoot in, and there was a slight confusion in the whole camp, and everyone wanted to find something to raise to block the arrows. "Shoot back, shoot them faster!" Naturally, there were archers in the tribe, and they began to fight back at the light cavalry. But for a few thousand cavalry, the damage done by those men was pitiful.

Gu Gebi saw the unfavorable situation on the left flank, and then thought for a moment: "Let the left flank attack, and divide a part of the people to defend against the arrows." The rest of the people went to defend the front of the Tang Dynasty and ate those thousands of people first. ”

The 3,000 people in the front of the Tang Dynasty also began to suffer casualties, mainly because the leader named Tuojie was very cruel. They led the attack directly from behind the group of old and weak, covering the two sides that were fighting with a rain of arrows. Cannon fodder is cannon fodder, although there is no such term. They successfully blocked the Tang Dynasty and provided a good attack for the follow-up soldiers.

The soldiers on both sides directly crushed the group of old and weak, and then collided together. In contrast, Datang's side was more disciplined, but in the previous battle, it also consumed a lot of physical strength. Li Bin looked at the current situation and directly pressed his left and right corps.

Then let the light cavalry charge directly to the front and break through the enemy's ranks. After all, those infantry, like the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty, were light infantry, and the cavalry could easily defeat them.

The battle formation moved little by little, and the Gu Ge on the opposite side was also pressed by the whole army. Li Bin also took the Chinese army on his side, and a handsome flag of the Tang Dynasty was fully unfolded, flying in the wind.

It was the first time for Yan Hanshui to experience such a big battle, and his whole body trembled slightly, and he didn't know whether it was excitement or fear. On the entire battlefield, more than 40,000 soldiers were caught in the battle, and at this time, the commanders on both sides basically lost their command and control over the lowest level. Because you can't move at all, you will be killed if you retreat that way.

The entire battlefield is like a flesh millstone, constantly crushing the lives on both sides. But...... Whether it is Datang or Gu Gebi, the real elite has not ended.
