Chapter 54: Blocking the Enemy

Mo Ran looked at the place where the clouds had disappeared, sneered, and reached out to wipe away the remaining blood from the corner of his mouth.

Although the battle cloud owl did not take any advantage, Mo Ran knew that this beam was over.

It's just that Mo Ran couldn't understand why Yun Xiao repeatedly persuaded him to join the camp of the Kamikaze Empire.

Also, why did Yun Xiao say that "the Breaking Japanese Kingdom is just a chess piece"? Could it be that the large-scale invasion of the Breaking Japanese Kingdom was instructed by the Kamikaze Empire?

But what exactly is the Kamikaze Empire trying to do? Could it be the spiritual vein mine?

And the person behind the cloud owl, is it the wind spirit Yunxun?

There are so many doubts in this that Mo Dye can't think of a reason for a while.

"This kind of brain-consuming thing should be left to the second brother to think about. ”

Ink Dye said so in his heart.

Now, Ink Dye just wanted to know what the reaction was on the side of the Flame Empire.

Even if the messenger didn't deliver the news, it had been nearly a month since the Sun Breaker invaded, and it was time for the Flame Empire to sense the slightest disturbance.

If the Flame Empire gives up on the Fishing Fire Country, then the Fishing Fire Country is really in a desperate situation.

"King Yan, the Tianmen Array has been concluded, whether to attack or defend, please decide!"

Lian Ke's voice interrupted Ink Ran's musings.

The battle between Mo Dye and the Cloud Owl, because it was within the enchantment, and in the sky dozens of feet high, there were clouds and mist covering it, and Lian Ke did not notice the abnormality.

Mo Ran ordered: "Retreat to the city gate, and order the Tiger Ben Army and the military guards to withdraw immediately!"

"Order!"

Lian Ke clasped his fists and saluted.

After a few breaths, a standard-bearer rode his war horse and galloped away in the direction of the army of the Breaking Japanese Country......

It has been a moment since the Tiger Ben Army and the Wu Guards left the city, and at the speed of the two armies, I am afraid that they have already clashed with the enemy army of the Broken Japanese Country, and Mo Ran is worried that Suzaku Er and Xiahou Yu will make some outrageous moves because of their revenge.

Ink Dye stared at the slightly lighter mist, his brow furrowed.

Suddenly, the induction spirit stone standing on the top of the city tower lit up, and there was a faint shout of killing in the distance, and Mo Dye's heart tightened.

The fog outside the venue was thick, and the visibility was less than ten feet.

The foggy weather was not suitable for an attack, but the country wanted to take it by surprise, and after capturing Fufeng County for a temporary rest, it would march to Yanhui County, and the 40,000 army had already set up camp ten miles outside the city of Yanhui County a day ago.

After a night's rest, before dawn, we headed towards Yanhui County.

Within half a month, the army of the Breaking Japanese State pulled out the two cities of Hongshui and Fufeng in a row, although it was a miserable victory, the morale was still high, and it marched all the way towards Yanhui County.

The marching array of the Breaking Sun Kingdom was a phalanx, with 1,000 chariots in front of the road, 10,000 infantry in the back, 5,000 heavy armored soldiers, 2,000 heavy cavalry on each wing, 3,000 crossbowmen in the back, and another 1,000 siege nu, 500 siege vehicles, and 1,000 catapults.

There were 5,000 siege chariots, 3,000 catapults, 3,000 chariots, and 11,000 chariots alone, for a total of 38,000 people.

Chariot array, in a group of three, one person driving, the other two are responsible for fighting, one is a spearman, specializing in dealing with cavalry, and the other is a sword and shield soldier, which can attack and defend.

Suzaku already has some understanding of the military formation of the Broken Sun Country, but against the chariot formation, it is difficult for the cavalry to exert the ideal charging effect.

The task assigned by Mo Dye is to contain the enemy army, and there is no need for cavalry to charge into battle, and Suzaku has already figured out how to break this chariot array.

The Tiger Horse Cavalry launched a charge when it was three hundred meters away from the Japanese army.

There was no shouting of killing, only the sound of horses' hooves.

Niu Kelian, the general of the Sun-Breaking Chariot Formation, didn't expect that the defenders of Yananti County would dare to come out to meet the battle, shouldn't they be cowering in the city at this time?

But there was a fog in front of him, and he didn't know how many people came from the other party, but despite this, Niu Kelian still decisively ordered: "Chariot array, ten chariots in a column, counter-charge!"

In order not to put the vehicle formation in a passive position, launching a counter-charge is the most effective means of defense.

Besides, the chariot formation against the cavalry formation is not cowardly at all!

Suzaku has a special ability, that is, listening to the position, the fog may have an effect on others, but to her, it is nothing.

"Javelin throwing ready, two hundred meters away!"

Two hundred meters sounds a bit exaggerated, but with the quality of the Tiger Cavalry, there is no problem with throwing two or three hundred meters, and with the speed of the war horse, two hundred meters is easy.

As soon as Suzaku gave the order, a thousand iron horsemen at the front of the Tiger Ben Army threw the javelin of a long javelin at the same time, and then divided into two columns, each with 500 people, drew the scimitar at his waist and rushed to both sides.

Two hundred meters, it did not reach the effective range, but it was just inserted in front of the chariot formation of the Breaking Japanese Country, and the javelins with a length of 1,000 poles and one zhang were all at a 45-degree angle, submerged into one-third of the ground, and were neatly lined up.

When they saw a dense javelin flying in the dense fog, the soldiers on the first few chariots were already panicking, although the javelins were only inserted into the ground, but they were less than a foot away from the chariots, and it was impossible to brake at such a close distance.

The war horse was frightened and jumped directly from the javelin array, but the chariot could not fly, and the javelin of the tiger army was double-headed, and the war horse had just crossed over the javelin, and the reins were cut by the tip of the spear, and without the chariot of the war horse, could it still be called a chariot?

The first train overturned, but the javelin was not overwhelmed by the chariot, and the soldiers on the car were more miserable, some of them fell and hit the tip of the spear, and the huge momentum was enough to penetrate their armored bodies.

The soldiers who were lucky enough to jump off the chariots, as soon as they landed, rolled under the ruts of the chariots behind them, or under the hooves of the horses, and the end was not much better than hitting the tip of the spear.

Each row of chariots gathered less than three feet in front of each other, and the first row of chariots overturned, and the chariots behind were in chaos for a while, but they finally stopped the horses in front of the first row of chariots that overturned to the ground.

The three hundred soldiers on the first row of chariots were dead and wounded, and nearly two-thirds of them lost their ability to fight for a while, and the remaining more than 100 people were also in shock, but before they had time to take a few breaths, a thousand iron cavalry of the Tiger Ben Army slanted over from both sides of the chariot array.

But all the soldiers of the Broken Sun Kingdom who were still standing on the ground fell under the scimitars of the Tiger Ben Iron Cavalry, and those soldiers who had lost their combat ability and fell to the ground and kept moaning, did not escape death.

Screams on the battlefield came and went.

"Quick! Blood Wolf Rider supports from the flanks!"

Niu Kelian hurriedly gave orders.

The four thousand households in charge of the 4,000 heavy cavalry have been killed unknown, and the cavalry team is temporarily available for Niu Kelian to dispatch.

However, the Tiger Horse Iron Cavalry was a light horse, and the Blood Wolf Cavalry was a heavy horse, and by the time the latter arrived from the flank, a thousand Tiger Horse Iron Horsemen had already harvested, and the javelins that could be pulled out on the ground were also pulled out by the Tiger Horsemen, and the spears of the spearmen on the chariot were also taken away by the Tiger Horsemen.

Those soldiers of the Broken Japanese Country who were still holding on to their spears and did not let go of their arms were all cut off by the Tiger Army.

In short, there were 1,000 javelins thrown out, and the total number of javelins and spears brought back was also 1,000.

The heavy cavalry chased the light cavalry, and the chase would definitely not be able to catch up, and there was a thick fog as a cover, and the blood wolf cavalry did not dare to attack rashly, so they could only watch the tiger army rush away.

"Forge the Arrows! Command the Crossbowmen!"

Niu Kelian then ordered.

A hundred chariots were destroyed, and Niu Kelian didn't even blink an eye.

The front arrow formation belongs to the offensive formation, but the offensive is poor, mainly defensive, the general is located in the middle of the formation, the main forces are assembled in the middle, such as infantry, heavy armor, and the "arrow" of the forward is composed of blood wolf cavalry, which can resist the pressure of the local wings.

The weakness of the blade formation is on the tail side, but, judging from this attack, it is only a tentative attack, and he does not dare to go deeper, Niu Kelian is not worried about the safety of the tail wing

The flaw of the Blade Arrow Formation is that the forward troops have more than enough to attack, but they must have a large number of reconnaissance methods as a match before the attack, if the detection is not in place, and the opponent's ambush trap is not found, the Blade Arrow will also become the grave of its own side.

Without knowing whether there was an ambush circle set up somewhere ahead, Niu Kelian did not dare to rush forward, and the speed of the march immediately slowed down.

A thousand tiger horsemen had withdrawn, and there were blood stains on the scimitars in the hands of each soldier.

Two thousand tiger troops and three thousand military guards lined up in formation, waiting for the generals to fall.

In the face of the great enemy, there was no commotion in the ranks, and there was silence, except for the occasional sound of horses.

In front of the array, Suzaku and Xiahou Yu each rode horses and looked ahead.

Although this attack was slightly effective, the army of the Breaking Sun Country should have formed a formation at this time, and Suzaku did not dare to rashly let the Tiger Ben Army attack again.

The fog was a cover for both armies and an obstacle.

"Two hundred meters. ”

"One hundred and fifty meters. ”

"A hundred meters. ”

Suzaku judged the distance between the two armies based on the sound.

"Fifty meters!"

"Stopped!"

Suzaku clenched the sword in her hand.

"Stop!"

As soon as he noticed a blurry black shadow in front of him, Niu Kelian immediately ordered to stop.

The fog was not as thick as before, but it was still impossible to see how many people and horses there were on the other side, and it was not clear whether there was a trap set by the other party ahead.

At this time, it was less than three miles away from Yanhui County, but the two armies were in a stalemate.

The Tiger Ben Army and the Wu Guards combined were only 5,000 people, but under the cover of the mist, they blocked the 40,000 troops of the Breaking Japanese Kingdom in the plain three miles away from Yanhui County, which was enough to be called a feat!

After a stalemate for nearly half a moment, Niu Kelian finally couldn't help it, and said respectfully to the person standing in the general's car: "Now I have to bother Your Excellency's Feng Marching Army to make a move." ”

That person was none other than Wan Yanming, the leader of the Wind Marching Army sent by the Kamikaze Empire to support the Broken Sun Country.

"Oh, I don't know how Lord Niu wants me to march in the wind?"

Wan Yanzheng had a playful smile on his face.

"Just dispel the fog in front of you. ”

Niu Kelian replied.

"That's going to take a lot of wind charms. ”

Wan Yanming didn't look at Niu Kelian, rubbed his fingers and said.

"After taking Yan and returning to the county, the materials consumed by the Feng Marching Army will be presented in the next number!"

The situation has reached this point, but Wan Yanming still has a leisurely attitude, Niu Kelian is unhappy, but there is no anger on his face.

"I'm going to double. ”

Wan Yanming smiled lightly.

"Deal!"

knew that the other party wanted to knock a sum from himself, but the war was imminent, and Niu Kelian didn't want to bargain with him.
