The only difference between the current and infantry hand-to-hand combat is that the people of the Stick Country stand a little taller.

Chen Mu has been observing the situation in the formation, and he found that the stick of the stick country is quite good, and it is indeed like the county order said, and he keeps cutting with a knife.

Moreover, Chen Mu also found that the chariot of the stick country was made of wood, and there was no metal at all. It seems that the country of sticks does not use sticks because they are easy to use, but because there is no metal smelting technology.

This is good news.

As the battle progressed, the shortcomings of the country of sticks with only sticks were manifested.

Because Chen Mujun's soldiers are wearing iron armor, and there is an armor lining made of cotton inside the iron armor, it can buffer blunt attacks well.

The stick of the stick country hit the body of Chen Mujun's soldiers, and it had no effect, and Chen Mujun's single knife slashed on the body of the soldiers of the stick country, which was a big mouth.

In particular, the stick country did not even have a complete leather armor, only a half-body armor on the front of the upper body, which was easily hit in the back by Chen Mujun's soldiers and cut the armor rope.

However, what made Chen Mu feel strange was that the soldiers of the Stick Country were obviously at a disadvantage, but there was no sign of retreating at all.

Does the other side still have reinforcements?

Chen Mu ordered to send out whistle arrows and let the cavalry of Great Xia come to support.

After a while, the cavalry arrived, and Chen Mu did not call them to join the battle, but told them to scatter and search to find reinforcements from the Stick Country.

However, until Chen Mujun wiped out all the 3,000 soldiers of the Stick Country, no reinforcements from the Stick Country were found.

On Chen Mujun's side, more than a dozen people were killed because they were hit by a chariot, and after hand-to-hand combat, not a single one was killed.

Chen Mu ordered the battlefield to be cleaned up, and the cavalry continued to patrol. He himself walked up to a stick country chariot and took a closer look at it.

The workmanship of the tank is very rough, the wheels are badly worn, and it seems that it has not been repaired for a long time.

The body is not entirely wood, there are some nails, presumably purchased from Donghu.

It seems that the strength of the stick country is indeed very poor, but why are the soldiers so desperate? If it is still profitable to plunder strong labor, then what is the point of fighting hard with the army of Great Xia?

Three thousand young men died in a foreign land.

Chen Mu shook his head, turned around and returned to the tent, and called all the generals and colonels of the Great Xia Army over.

"Tell me, why are the soldiers of the Stick Country so desperate?"

The generals and colonels are all fighting on the front line, and they all put forward their own intuitive feelings.

"What the soldiers of the Stick Country have been shouting while they are fighting, it may be some kind of slogan."

"They make a strange gesture before they die, I don't know what it means."

"Yes, they still shout when they die, and I don't know what it means."

Everyone talked nonsense, Chen Mu listened, nodded and said: "It seems that the country of Bangzi has a religious system similar to that of Dongyue, but fortunately, their combat effectiveness is very low, and no matter how crazy they are, they will only be sent to death." ”

"Let's prepare some grain and grass and launch an attack on the mainland of the Stick Country."

The generals were ordered to go and prepare for their own preparations.

Three days later, Chen Mu led a large army and marched in the southeast direction.

This time is different from attacking Persia, Chen Mu is very familiar with the terrain of the stick country, and the peninsula is not very wide in total, just push it over.

Chen Mujun advanced while inquiring, and met many fishermen, hunters, woodcutters, etc. from the Stick Country along the way, and did not pay attention to them, allowing them to go back to report the news.

A few days later, Chen Mujun saw a town in the country of sticks.

The town is built on a hill, and the walls are all stone, and it looks very unsturdy. Judging by the size of the town, there should have been only a few thousand garrisons inside.

Chen Mu took a look at it and decided to attack directly from the mountain.

Because there is no city wall on the side of the hill in the town, there is only a circle of wooden fences, and the invincible flying army and the Wudang flying army under Chen Mu are just good at mountain and forest warfare.

After making a plan, Chen Mu ordered the army to advance and go up the mountain from the side away from the town.

There were a lot of pine trees on the mountain, and he couldn't see the situation in the distance clearly, so Chen Mu carefully chose the road to not give the enemy a chance to throw rolling logs and stones.

When I walked to a mountain peak, a scout came to report.

"Report! Five miles to the east, enemy troops were found, at least a thousand people. ”

Chen Mu nodded, "Oh? Set up an ambush on the mountain? Just in time, the province got a war in the city and disturbed the people. ”

He originally wanted to avoid civilian casualties as much as possible, after all, the subjects of the subject country were also half a son.

Chen Mu gave the order to march directly towards the enemy army.

In the mountains and forests, the road of five miles was not too close, and after walking for a long time, Chen Mu saw the soldiers of the Stick Country, and immediately ordered an attack.

Chen Mujun used the method of mountain and forest warfare, with Shiwu as a unit, scattered, and with the help of the cover of trees, fired crossbows at the enemy.

The soldiers of the Stick Country only have half-body armor, and the protection effect is very poor, and as soon as the mountain and forest battles begin, there are enemy troops on all sides, and their half-body armor has almost no effect.

Just when the battle was in full swing, Chen Mu suddenly noticed one thing, there was a strange smell on the soldiers of the Stick Country.

Why?

Prevent mosquito bites?

If that's the case, that's fine, but what if there's some conspiracy?

Chen Mu thought for a moment and ordered the soldiers outside the battle group to pick up the soldiers in front of him and retreat, pulling the battle line back.

At this moment, on the side near the town of Stick Country, there was a sudden roar of wild beasts.

No way? The country of sticks can actually tame beasts? Fighting with beasts?

Thinking like this, Chen Mu saw a group of wolves rushing out from the other side of the mountain forest, roaring and rushing towards the battle group of the two armies.

Chen Mu's heart chuckled, and he hurriedly ordered Mingjin to withdraw his troops and withdraw from the mountains and forests.

When the invincible flying army and the Wudang flying army heard the order, they fought and retreated, and the wolves over there pounced, and they only attacked the Great Xia army.

It turns out that the smell on the soldiers of the stick country is for this.

I really underestimated the country of sticks, and I actually knew how to summon brutes to help them fight.

But fortunately, Chen Mu still has a secret weapon.

Chen Mu ordered to step up the retreat and withdraw from the mountains and forests, and on the other side, the stick country released tigers, leopards, wild boars and other animals, all of which only attacked the Great Xia army.

Chen Mu was speechless, only the wolf was forgotten, after the stick country really won, he could still clean up the mess, now that so many animals have been released, even if the stick country can win, how can he end up?

Moreover, the country of sticks has no chance of winning at all.

After a while, Chen Mujun withdrew from the forest, and Chen Mu gave the order to throw Molotov cocktails.

This kind of Molotov cocktail is made of clay, and it is easy to break after being thrown, and then the oil contained in it will meet the fire fold at the mouth of the bottle and quickly catch fire.

Molotov cocktails flew towards the beasts of the Stick Country, and they burned when they hit the ground.

At this moment, the beasts were startled.
