Chapter Forty-Eight: The Great War Begins
"That's good, Xiaohua, you can let the team speed up, and let Jiang Xiran leave on his own, everything will go according to plan, remember not to advance, and then do it in three days." Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć This time, the plan must be in order, otherwise there will be mistakes.
"Understood. Xuanyuan Ruohua answered and went to arrange.
Two days later, Jialan led the team to a valley, this valley is not high, but the shape is very interesting, like a pocket, and because there is no sunlight here, there are still some remnants of ice and snow that have not melted;
Jialan ordered Xuanyuan Ruohua to take 30,000 heavy armor soldiers to the depths of the valley to set up defenses, Jiang Xiran took 15,000 archers to ambush on the mountain, and his other 5,000 archers were seconded to Xuanyuan Ruohua, and Heiya continued to ambush ten miles outside the valley with 40,000 light armor soldiers.
"Well, are you ready?" asked Jialan, and at this time there were Xuanyuan Ruohua, Black Cliff, and Jiang Xiying standing beside him.
"It's all ready, it's up to my brother. Jiang Xiying said.
"Well, what's going on with Qiande?" asked Jialan to Black Cliff.
"Yesterday night, their clansmen who had been transformed by the ghost clan had already gone to the road that Jiang Xiran had to pass to ambush. Black Cliff said.
"Very well, you take people to keep an eye on it, and if there is anything wrong with these barbarians, go immediately to meet the cavalry, and inform us to retreat from here. ā
"Master, is it necessary to be so cautious?" asked Black Cliff.
"Yes!" Jialan said firmly.
"Understood. "Black Cliff takes the order.
"Xiying, are you ready to explode?" asked Jialan, this was the first time Jialan had set up a battle plan, and she always had a hint of worry in her heart, constantly looking for possible mistakes.
"Don't worry, General, you've told them several times, I'll attack their tail first, drive them into a trap, and then attack them in full force, and finally kill them. Jiang Xiying said absentmindedly.
"You must beat more than half of the explosion nucleus in a quarter of an hour, and you can't waste it, understand?" Jialan glared at the other party, Jiang Xiying immediately stuck out his tongue and stood back.
"Okay, let's go and prepare, I guess Xiran will bring someone over in two days. Jialan waved her hand and motioned for them to prepare, and she planned to go around the position.
After Xuanyuan Ruohua and the others left, the mule and horse quietly came to Jialan's side, "General~"
"Well, you take your baggage troops straight into the rear of the cult, but you must read carefully before you start, if you don't do it right, leave, Shadow Seven will go with you and help you check the news. Jialan said lightly, "Remember ć»ć»ć»ć»ć»ć»"
"Understood, I'll go far away. The mule said with a smile.
"Smart, let's go! The blood guard will also draw some out, led by Lixiang, and it is estimated that when you get the exact news, Lixiang should also arrive. After Jialan finished speaking, she turned around and walked towards the position, squatting on the ground from time to time to check something.
Three days later, Jiang Xiran came with the cavalry all the way, followed by billowing smoke and dust, and it was obvious that a large group of men and horses were following them.
"It's here, Xiaohua, order the soldiers to shout!" Jialan shouted.
"Yes!" followed, 30,000 soldiers shouted slogans neatly, as if they were demonstrating, but also to cheer up their cavalry, in fact, this shout was to show Jiang Xiran's cavalry the direction of advance.
"But you must rush over!" Jialan muttered silently in her heart. A long time ago, Jialan ordered 10,000 death row prisoners to dig a pit in this valley, fill it with water, and then use the residual ice and snow to cover it up, which is also at the border pass, otherwise it is really difficult to find this kind of place where there is ice and snow in summer; after this land is handled, Jiang Xiran and the cavalry have rehearsed three times, and they already know how to walk without falling into the pit, not to mention that there are people who show them the way forward.
"General, the task is complete, there are more than 100,000 followers of the cult, according to Chen Danzhu's words, their army is all there is, as long as these teams are destroyed, it will be a war that will be a decisive battle!" Jiang Xiran said with a smile as he passed by Jialan.
"How much did the cavalry lose?" asked Jialan.
"Well, those cavalrymen dressed as death row prisoners don't know that our own deaths are about two thousand. Jiang Xiran said.
"Quite a bit, I thought I'd come back unharmed. Jialan sighed, "Okay, hurry up and rest in the back, don't run out of strength when you use you." ā
The cult's chariot chased all the way to Jialan's location, but when it came to the mouth of the valley, it stopped advancing.
"Big brother, they're not moving?!" Xuanyuan Ruohua shouted.
"Why haven't the barbarians come yet?" Jialan asked suspiciously, this cult army didn't come in immediately Jialan was considered, so the barbarians were an important part, but the barbarians who should have rushed out did not appear at this time.
"It's not going to happen, is it?"
"It's okay, I'm expecting that, order the team forward, five hundred steps!" shouted Jialan.
"Five hundred steps, is that distance useful?" asked Xuanyuan Ruohua.
"Do as you are told!"
After 30,000 soldiers took 500 steps forward, the opponent still did not move, but set up a formation, ready to meet the enemy.
"Damn!" Jia Lan scolded through gritted teeth, "Two hundred steps forward!"
"Still ahead, we're almost at the edge of the trap!"
"There's no way, the bait of the 10,000 death row prisoners is not big enough, and the barbarians haven't appeared, we can only move forward, otherwise we will be the ones who will be trapped and killed. Jialan said.
"Okay!"
When the team advanced a hundred paces, the barbarian people appeared, rushing directly towards the cult people.
"What? Barbarians collude with the Terrans!?" the cult members were shocked.
"Shall we retreat?"
"What are you afraid of? Today, we will defeat the barbarian Terrans and directly break through the border defenses! Let the Terrans know the fate of colluding with the Barbarians!" the cult leader shouted, "We have endured for too long, we should have exterminated the Barbarians a long time ago, otherwise we would not have given them a chance to collude with the Terrans!"
"Well, it seems that the barbarians have sent out all the prime of life!" said the person next to him.
"Ha~ It seems that they also want to make a desperate bet, great!"
"Well, this is an opportunity for us, and they have seen the terrain just now, and they are going to limit our chariots with ice and snow, but they have miscalculated one thing, and that is that the place where we are standing at the moment is high enough to allow our chariots to rush through!" The Assyrians of the cult are very belligerent, but they are not blind people.
"It makes sense, then we'll charge and deal with the barbarians first!"
With a decision, these people of the cult did not hesitate and fought directly with the barbarians.
"I said~ These Assyrians are all warlike people, how can they back down. Xuanyuan Ruohua wiped the sweat from his forehead, he was really startled just now.
"Alright, order the troops, when the barbarians retreat, we must also retreat. Jialan said.
"What, don't you cooperate with the barbarians?" asked Xuanyuan Ruohua.
"Why do you think I'm putting the line in the middle of the canyon just to have room to back off!" said Jia Lan softly, "These barbarians are also bait. ā
"Huh?" Xuanyuan Ruohua and the others were all shocked, these barbarians were also bait?
"Alright, don't worry about it anymore and do what you are told!" Jialan said.
The heavy armoured soldiers slowly retreated, handing over the battlefield to the barbarians, all of which were discussed with Qiande, these barbarians were no longer considered normal people, and it was difficult for them to live long, and the ghost tribes had transformed them only to use them as tools, and at this moment they were using these nearly 30,000 barbarians to lead the Assyrians into a trap.
The two sides fought fiercely, especially the barbarians, after transformation, they were in severe pain all the time, and killing could vent this severe pain, so as soon as the barbarians appeared, they attacked desperately, completely ignoring the other party's attack, and the battle scene was very tragic. At this stage, the battle can be regarded as dark, the sound of Xiao killing continues, the knife is dancing, the blood is flying, and life is constantly being harvested.
Although the barbarians are brave, after all, the number is not enough, and the cooperation between the Assyrians is much stronger than theirs, and the severe pain in the body has made the barbarians forget to cooperate, they all fight alone, and soon nearly 10,000 people will fall; But the barbarians' embarrassed retreat also made the cult people chase deeper and deeper, but they began to suppress the barbarians because the trap set by Jialan was not too bumpy at first, and when the chariot began to trap, the Assyrians who had already killed the barbarians ignored this matter, and when the barbarians were gone, and the Assyrians found that the problem was wrong, the chariot was difficult to turn around, looking at the steep slope with a height difference, it turned out that it was not their advantage, but a disadvantage!
At this time, a series of nuclear arrows fell from the sky, and the explosion began from the rear of the Assyrians and spread to the front, and then the explosion occurred in different places, and finally the arrow rain fell.
A quarter of an hour later, Jiang Xiying withdrew from the mountain with his archers and headed straight for the cult land, while the Assyrians in the valley had already suffered heavy casualties.
"Haha, how? everything is planned!" Jialan laughed, "Xiaohua, attack!" "Jialan's plan is to use cavalry to lure the other party, and then let the 10,000 death row prisoners ride inferior horses, as bait, so that the Assyrians mistakenly think that the Terran cavalry is vulnerable, and then use those reformed barbarians to make the Assyrians fall into the mud in the melee, followed by a deadly attack by archers and heavy armor.
"Yes!" Xuanyuan Ruohua also excitedly led the heavy armor soldiers to attack.
"Blood Orchid, let's go! Jialan said with a smile, and after the blood Lan got the order, she flew out with great excitement.
Jialan also jumped into the battlefield, first jumped to the height where the Assyrians began to stand, and opened a formation of methods, which was a gravity formation developed by Jialan from the effect of heavy water droplets, as soon as this array opened, the speed of the Assyrians' retreat would definitely drop a lot;
"Hmm, how does the blood and essence of these people make the palace react? And the stronger the person, the greater the reaction?" Curious, Jialan accelerated the harvest of Assyrian lives.
The Assyrians had been hit by the explosion and suffered heavy losses, which was the opponent of the heavy armored soldiers who were waiting for work, so they had to retreat with the whole army, but they were limited by the formation before they could retreat far; the Assyrians were still very decisive, giving up the chariot and getting off directly to fight with the heavy armor soldiers; Xuanyuan Ruohua commanded the heavy armored soldiers to use the Xuanwu array, advancing slowly, without any confusion, and arrows kept falling from the sky, taking the lives of the Assyrians.
It was not easy to break away from the gravity formation, but they were greeted by 40,000 light armored soldiers who acted quickly. The Assyrians fell into a bitter battle again, Jialan withdrew the formation in time, and the advance speed of the heavy armor soldiers was also immediately accelerated, forming an encirclement with the light armor soldiers, but the Assyrian combat quality was still very high, and they survived the chaos at the beginning, slowly adjusted the formation, defended the heavy armor soldiers, and then rushed in the direction of the light armor soldiers.
"Xiran, go up quickly, dash the enemy, and then ambush them on their way back!" Jialan ordered.
