Chapter 172: Offensive and Defensive Phases
They hurried back to the hill at great speed, and before they could see the hill in the distance, they heard a shout of killing.
Xu Feng looked at Lu Yi and thought to himself, the enemy's plan was indeed like this.
"Let's go, let's go behind the enemy," Xu Feng said.
Lu Yi heard what Xu Feng meant, he nodded, it is better to attack the enemy behind when he returns to the camp at this moment.
They quietly walked among the weeds on the side of the road, where the weeds were more than a man tall enough to hide them. They approached the hill where the army was hiding, and they saw thousands of Miao soldiers attacking the hill.
The situation in front of him is very heroic, thousands of Miao soldiers are attacking all over the mountains and fields, thousands of Chu troops and Shang troops are bleeding and dying here, but Miao soldiers also suffer great losses.
There are some traps dug on the hillside, and there are also some traps, although these things cannot be compared with the hundreds of years of operation of the seedlings, but they still have a great effect. I saw that those Miao soldiers fell one after another, but the rest of them still rushed up with Changge.
A row of bows and arrows shot out of the army, and these attacking Miao soldiers were hit by arrows one after another. In the face of such heavy casualties, they retreated one after another.
"Big brother, this is the third time we have failed to charge, will we still rush forward?" One of the generals came back and said to Tempo.
This man was dressed in armor and looked very powerful.
"Rush, you must rush..."Tianbao said.
The general gritted his teeth and turned around, and he went. There was a sound of agitation from the forward position, and the soldiers cheered up, picked up Changge, and prepared to continue the attack.
Xu Feng saw that these Miao soldiers were all in military appearance all day long, and the Miao people wore cloth clothes inside and armor outside.
They had a long ge in their hands, a waist knife hanging from their waists, and a quiver and a longbow on their backs. Xu Feng saw that many people still had repeaters.
These people are very well-armed, and Xu Feng feels that they are more like a professional army. Xu Feng thought that in the past, the Chiyou tribe was very good at building weapons, and they passed down these skills, so the Miao people could be so strong.
The general shouted, and the archers and arrows re-bent their bows and arrows, ready to shoot at the army.
"You rush out... Attacking those archers, Zhang Qian and I are waiting for Ji Ren's moves..."Xu Feng said to Lu Yi.
"Okay, let's rush out..."Lu Yi shouted softly, he raised his sword and headed towards the archers.
Meng'er, Bing'er, Mountain Ghosts, Meng Liang, Liu Yong, and they all rushed out, and they used killing moves against those archers. Those Miao archers were panicked for a while, caught off guard, and had already been killed a lot.
"Stop them," Tempo shouted.
Some Miao warriors rushed over, surrounded Lu Yi, and they fought and killed. Xu Feng looked at Ji Ren, although he was injured, he was standing beside Tianbao, ready to send a spell.
He was just about to cast a spell when he saw a man suddenly appear in front of him. This is Xu Feng, after Xu Feng saw Jiren, he rushed over incognito. He came to Ji Ren and stabbed him with a sword.
Ji Ren was already injured, and when he saw Xu Feng's sword, he had no time to react. He could only raise his hand to block, Xu Feng avoided his hand and stabbed it with a sword.
There was a look of horror on his face, and Xu Fengjian still pierced into his chest. Jiren screamed, and he fell to the ground. Xu Feng's sword stabbed again, but a Miao knife blocked him, and Xu Feng saw that it was Tianbao.
Xu Fengjian stabbed at Tianbao, and they fought. After a few moves, Xu Feng felt Tianbao's strength. Tianbao uses a Miao knife, a knife with a narrow back and a slightly curved blade.
Tianbao kept slashing, and Xu Feng kept fighting with him. Tianbao's martial arts have always been very good, and he has few opponents over the years. When he and Xu Feng kept fighting, he was secretly surprised.
He didn't expect to meet such an opponent. Xu Feng's swordsmanship is sharp and deadly. The key is that the strength is also quite strong, and each sword is extremely powerful. Tianbao felt that his innate divine power was already rare, and Xu Feng was also extremely powerful.
The yellow soldiers on the mountain saw the battle under the mountain, and he knew that Xu Feng had returned, and the yellow soldiers were overjoyed.
They had not encountered any attacks on the hill for the past few days, but the Yellow Soldiers had not let their guard down. He knew that this was the Miao land, and the Miao people must be eyeing it.
The Yellow Soldiers sent secretly trained samurai, who could lurk in the swamp for days and nights, or lie on their stomachs in the earth for many days. The Yellow Soldiers sent secret samurai to lurk near the hill, and those samurai lay in ambush in the top of the trees and in the grass, and they did not move.
When Tianbao's Miao army came to lurk near them, these warriors quickly spotted the Miao soldier's arrival. They came back to report on the Miao army's movements.
Huang Bing was ready. The traps had been dug up long ago, and the hidden weapons had been set up in the hills, groves, and grassy slopes. The archers had already arranged their positions close to the bottom of the mountain, and the archers' bunkers had been dug up.
All the samurai soldiers on the hill also had their own bunkers, ready to protect themselves in the event that the opponent fired arrows. Huang Bing also asked Song Wan to do a good job of magic support at any time, in case the other party used magic, he could defend and attack in time.
After all this is ready, just wait for the opponent to attack. It's just that these preparations were done quietly, and the enemy under the mountain didn't feel special.
When Tianbao and the others came to the front of the mountain, they launched an attack.
At first, they wanted to sneak attack, and they sent dozens of warriors with hundreds of elite Miao troops, wanting to take advantage of the fog in the early morning to touch the mountain.
But their traces were discovered.
The yellow soldiers had long let the army be on guard at any time, and the army had entered the combat position and faced the hill.
When the yellow soldier got the news that the enemy had touched the mountain, he waved his hand, "Archers get ready..."
The archers gathered on the enemy's side.
In the thick fog, the enemy appeared.
"Shoot the arrows," the yellow soldier shouted.
The arrows were shot, and the Miao soldiers who were sneaking up on them were hit one after another. A lot of people rolled down.
"Kill..."General Liu Feng rushed down with hundreds of Chu soldiers. They quickly approached the enemy and engaged in a scuffle.
This sneak attack of the Miao army was hit by bows and arrows, and half of it had already been lost, and when it encountered Liu Feng's rush and killing, it was soon full of corpses.
Their leader, a Miao general saw that the momentum was not right, "Withdraw, everyone withdraw..."
The rest of them fought and retreated. They have already lost several hundred people.
The first attack is blocked, and Tempo looks at Jiren and Nuren.
"My lord, I'll take people to charge," shouted the angry man.
After all, he has been a general, and he is still a little domineering.
"Okay, angry, you rush forward with five hundred Miao soldiers..."Tianbao said.
"Magicians, prepare, unleash lightning before we attack...," Tempo shouted.
"Yes, my lord," said the Miao magicians. Their magician levels are all around seven or eight, but their levels are all below Song Wan.
The magicians began to prepare to release the lightning, and when the sky was clouded, the lightning was coming. Song Wan looked at all this, and he knew that the other party's magician was casting a spell.
When the lightning and thunder were about to be released, Song Wan opened his hands and pushed them into the air. A strong wind blew out and into the air.
The clouds dispersed all at once. The magicians used all their strength, but they couldn't bring the clouds back together.
The angry man couldn't wait, "Archer, release the arrows... The Miao soldiers are ready, and as soon as the archers and arrows are released, we will charge..."
"Yes, General," said the Miao soldiers who charged this time.
They all rushed upwards with their hands in their hands, and the archers began to prepare. The angry plan was to send each person five arrows to shoot, and then the Miao soldiers would rush upward.
When the archers were ready, their arrows went up, and after another.
When Miao Bing's first attack was repulsed, Huang Bing was pondering, he knew that the enemy would not be willing to be defeated like this. The enemy will surely attack frantically a second time.
He had been prepared for the enemy's bow and arrow rain, and had his soldiers protect themselves in bunkers. So when this rain of arrows came, the army suffered no losses.
"Everyone avoid the rain of arrows, our archers are ready," Huang Bing said.
General Liu Feng also carried out the orders of the Yellow Soldiers, and the main commander of this battle was the Yellow Soldiers, and Liu Feng became the deputy general.
After the rain of arrows, the angry man saw that the top of the mountain above was silent. He was happy in his heart, and estimated that the Shang and Chu armies above had suffered great losses.
"Everybody...," shouted the angry man. He raised his bronze sword and lunged upward.
Five hundred Miao soldiers raised their Changge and rushed up, their Changge was extremely sharp, bronze armor was protective, and their steps were heavy and mighty.
In the distance, Huang Bing saw these Miao soldiers rushing up. He was a little depressed in his heart, these Miao army equipment was stronger than the regular army. With such thick armor, ordinary bows and arrows could not hurt them.
"Wait for them to get closer, and try to shoot them in the throat and face," Huang said.
"Yes, general," replied the archers.
When those Miao soldiers rushed up, Huang Bing gave an order, "Release the arrows..."
More than two hundred full-time archers fired their arrows. The arrows were aimed at the faces and throats of the Miao soldiers, and their armor lost its protective effect.
"Get down, get down," shouted the angry man.
The Miao soldiers fell one after another, and the angry man buried his head in the grass, "Damn, these arrows shoot accurately and diarly... Armor can't protect the soldiers..."
"Stop firing arrows, archers prepare... The enemy will continue to attack...," Huang Bing said.
"It's the general," said the archer.
They still had more than half of the arrows in their quivers. They wondered if the enemy was still coming.
When the archers' arrows stopped, Nu was pondering, "Is it because they don't have enough arrows, it's very likely..." According to the detailed report, the main force of this Chu army has about 2,000 people, and according to the standard configuration of the Chu army, the archers should be about two to three hundred. Judging from the density just now, this Chu army has already fired thousands of arrows.
Such a long-distance attack unit will not carry a lot of supplies, it must use its own personal weapons. Judging from this way, the Chu army above must have no arrows.
"Haha, keep attacking, the enemy has no arrows...," the angry man shouted.
"Yes, everyone get up and rush," a Miao general shouted as he stood up.
