Chapter 13: The First Battle
"Spearman, prepare!" "Drink!" With the command of the team officer, the Ye Jun sergeants in the first few rows collectively raised the four-meter spear flat. In an instant, the array of thousands of Ye Jun turned into a terrifying monster, and the spears that were raised flat were like the sharp teeth of a monster, ready to tear apart all the prey in front of him at any time.
"Whoa!!Kill!!"
"First column, forward-thorn!"
"Kill!" With the command of the team officer, hundreds of Ye Jun sergeants in the first column stabbed the spears in their hands forward fiercely at the same time!
The practice of counting thousands of times a day is for today's trick.
"Puff puff puff ......." The sound of the spear entering the body continued, and the screams of blood gushing endlessly.
The nearly 100 horse bandits who rushed to the front were all stabbed along with their horses, and none of them were spared. How powerful is it to practice several times a day, a thousand times at a time, and repeat one movement?
"First column retreat!" the officer then shouted the command.
Sergeant Ye Jun in the first column quickly drew his spear and took a big step back, the spear was drawn, blood gushed out, blood arrows flew, and the ground was suddenly drenched in blood. Nearly a hundred corpses fell to the ground like blood gourds, and the war horses that were not yet dead were still twitching.
"This ...... How is this possible?" Fu Bo Li Xin, who was watching the battle on the hillside, was puzzled, "How can these people be recruits who have only been trained for three months, but I am afraid that they are not much compared with the elite border troops of the year." "Fu Bo and the others have all participated in the war against foreign races in the border army, and the border army has also brought together the most elite army in the entire Xuan country.
Just like Fu Bo Li Xin who was watching the battle on the city tower and the corpse that fell to the ground, the first column of Ye Army sergeants who had just pierced their spears were also unbelievable. Could it be that we have been practicing in the past few months and walking in line and stabbing so badly? These are all horse bandits who kill people without blinking, how can they be killed by me so suddenly? This is too easy! It's much easier than killing pigs.
At that time, there were still many people questioning Ye Qing's training methods.
"Second column forward—stab!" the officer's command continued. Sergeant Ye Jun in the second column took a step forward as if he was in training, and then stabbed his spear fiercely at the enemy.
"Puff puff puff ......" and screams of blood continued, and the spear entered the body as if it were a rhythmic drum beat.
"Second column retreat!" Accompanied by the commander's command, blood gushed out, blood arrows flew, and a large number of blood gourds fell to the ground.
"The third column is forward—stab!" the unconscionable officer did not seem to be giving an order to kill, but rather as if he were chanting a scripture.
Because the charging distance was too short, the cavalry's charging advantage could not be brought into play, and even the first line of defense of the Ye army was stopped without breaking through. Moreover, the first wave of horse bandits went to the end together with the horses, and immediately blocked the charge of the horse bandits behind.
"Big brother, how is this good? If we continue like this, we will basically not be able to give full play to our advantages!" said the second master of the horse bandits, full of anxiety.
"Canglang waves!" The horse bandit is also a ruthless man who has been spanning half his life in the end, and he is decisive in killing, and after pulling out his sword, he shouts, "Success or failure in this move!"
Shouting and waving the sword in his hand, he rushed forward to kill, ignoring the chaotic soldiers in front of him.
At this time, the horse bandits who had experienced three rounds of stabbing by Sergeant Ye Jun had already been frightened. For the undisciplined horse bandits, fighting a good wind and bullying an enemy who is weaker than themselves is the more courageous they become, and once they encounter an enemy who is more savage and brutal than themselves, their morale will plummet or even collapse.
"Ah~~~~~, run!" I don't know which horse bandit who was frightened by the spear shouted and turned around and ran, someone took the lead, and the other horse bandits were naturally not stupid, and they did the same, and they all turned around and ran back. As soon as they turned around, they immediately collided with the horse bandits who rushed up from behind, and for a time the charging formation launched behind them was disrupted, and the people in front wanted to hind their legs, and all the horse bandits were crowded together in confusion.
"Attention all, it's all there!" said the officers of the archers in the back were now calm, as if they were training on the playground.
"Three volleys, let's go!" he waved the order flag in his hand fiercely!
Hundreds of bows and arrows pierced the sky and fell into the crowd, and the already chaotic formation was even more chaotic after falling into the arrows.
The big and small bandit leaders who rushed to the forward position were all wearing iron armor, and there were standard-bearers following behind, so they became the focus of attention. About a dozen bows and arrows were fired at the bandit leader, and one long arrow even pierced his iron armor and stuck in his shoulder. Of course, this was not fatal, the most fatal thing was that the officer who commanded the Ye Army sergeant spearman gave the order to charge.
"Spearmen advance!" After the command was given, the spearmen were seen holding their spears diagonally and shouting trumpets in orderly steps towards the horse bandits.
"Mom, !!!", "Run!!". Ye Jun's further oppression broke the horse bandit's psychological defense, and in the eyes of the horse bandits, it was not the Ye Jun sergeant who forced over, but the man-eating monster that had just come out of hell.
"Bastard, go back to attack, and cut those who retreat!", "Brothers, they don't have armor, let's rush up and kill!
"Break through Dongjiang Town, the woman's property is free!!Kill me with me!!" The leader of the horse bandits shouted loudly, and while cutting the shafts of the arrows with his sword, he led the horse bandits to pounce on the Ye army.
"Kill!" Seeing his boss so brave, the morale of the horse bandits was immediately boosted.
"First column, thrust-stab!" At the command of the officer, the first column of spearmen stabbed their spears forward as they had done before.
"The first column retreats, the second column, stabbing - stabbing .......!" Under the command of the team officer, Sergeant Ye Jun harvested the lives of the horse bandits like a killing machine. As the leader of the horse bandits, he naturally received special attention, and when he rushed to the front of the battle with his horse and sword, ten spears stabbed at him and his mount in unison. I have to admit that horses are very agile animals, and when horses see Rulin's spear, their first reaction is to stop moving forward and stand up with a double kick to avoid it.
But it turned out to be in vain, and several spears pierced the horse bandit leader directly through the horse's body, and the men and horses pierced together.
"How... Will ......," the horse bandit leader said slowly with an unwilling face.
"Big brother!ah~~~~~hh
"Surrender on your knees to avoid death!", "Instruments kneel on the ground and don't kill!" shouted Sergeant Ye Jun while stabbing at the same time.
"Bang Bang, Bang Bang", "Grandpa spare your life!" and other voices came and went, and the remaining horse bandits had already been frightened, and when they heard the shouts of surrender and death, kneeling on the ground and not killing, it was like hearing the sound of heaven, and soon only the Ye Army sergeant and the remaining war horses were standing on the battlefield.
Ye Qing's body trembled slightly, clenched his fists tightly and muttered, "Finally victory." ”
The victory in the first battle also strengthened Ye Qing's confidence, and for the future battles, Ye Qing's heart was even more dependent. Everyone has a transition in their hearts, as a traversing person, Ye Qing can't do it, as soon as he comes to this world, he can kill people and lead troops to fight. He needed a transition, a guide to keep him going, and this battle served just that.
"My lord, the war is over. The battlefield has been cleaned!" several of the officers and officers leading the troops were still flushed with excitement, as if they had just drunk drunk.
"What are the casualties of our soldiers?" Ye Qing cared.
"Lord Qiqi, no one of our officers and men was killed! More than 50 people were injured, but all of them were minor injuries and did not affect their normal activities!" said the officer in charge of cleaning up the battlefield.
Then seven or eight soldiers carried the body of the leader of the bandits. This scene is even more terrifying:
The majestic and domineering horse bandit leader in the entire chaotic hills is now like a blood gourd that has been poked, and his muscle tissue is turned outward, silently explaining Ye Jun's strength.
"My lord, what should be done with these corpses, and what should the prisoners do?"
A very real question was raised.
"Everyone is a human race, and the grievances of people are gone, so these corpses are buried on a hill, and the captives can be spared the death penalty, and the living crimes are inescapable, and they are all sent to be coolies. “
"Interrogate the horse bandit captives, ask the reason for the old invasion of us, our territory is remote, and thieves rarely appear, not to mention horse bandits. “
"In addition, collect all the horses that can be cured, our cavalry is too small, and with this batch of horses, we can expand it appropriately. “
Dongjiang Town has always been relatively short of horses, although many requests and purchases are still unable to meet the demand, so far there is only a cavalry team of 100 people.
The number of people is too small to be used as scouts at present, and it is impossible to fight independently.
Don't look at the fact that today's infantry battle against the cavalry won very easily, in fact, this was due to Ye Qing's occupation of the right time, place and people, and the horse bandits were not familiar with the combat methods of the Ye soldiers, plus the horse bandits may have been affected by the battle with the barbarians, and their morale has not yet recovered, so they have achieved the current victory.
If it is in an open plain, the same two armies will fight, and even if they win, they will suffer heavy losses.
Now that the battle was over and the battlefield was cleaned up, Ye Qing led his troops back to the town overnight.
When he came, he was empty-handed, and when he returned to the city, he had hundreds of horses and prisoners, and he also brought a large number of supplies, all of which were robbed and robbed by horse bandits along the way, almost catching up with the harvest of Dongjiang Town in a year, and it had to be a good means to get rich quickly.
Of course, the biggest gain of this trip is that all the soldiers felt the atmosphere of the battlefield and laid a good foundation for the next battle.
The first time he really experienced the battlefield, although Ye Jun's first battle performance was perfect, Ye Qing was still under a lot of psychological pressure, and after handing over the aftermath to Fu Bo and them to take care of, he fell asleep when he returned to the lord's mansion, mentally tired.
