Chapter 294: Li Xun's Soldiers
Huge cowhide war drums make a loud sound, and the horns play a rough music.
What Li Yinhuan was riding was not a war horse, but a huge Kodo beast, like a giant elephant, exuding a majestic momentum on the field, which was terrifying.
The knights gathered around them, forming a thick formation, with the infantry following closely behind.
The front arrow formation is a formation with both offense and defense, the general is located in front of the formation, the main forces are gathered in the center, and the forward is spread out in the shape of a wide arrow.
Due to the strong impact of the center, it can break through the center and cut through the enemy, and at the same time, the thick flanks can prevent the enemy from outflanking. Therefore, the Blade Array has an innate restraint against the Goose Array.
Li Yinhuan led the Chinese army, Mo Yuchen and Fang Shengxue led the left wing, Ye Zhiqiu and Qi Hei led the right wing, and his brother Li Shenfu escorted the rear position.
However, in the blink of an eye, the Divine Thunder Tribe had already completed the transformation of the formation.
The formation was not very tight, but it revealed a smart aura, rolling like a tide, rolling up smoke and dust and surging forward. The rangers floated on the wings, like a sharp arrow whirling in the wind.
The grassland is dominated by cavalry, and the combat mode is more mobile and flexible, and the formation is not rigid, compared with the formation mode of Middle-earth, the attack power is stronger, but the defense is weaker.
The Divine Thunder Tribe hurriedly met the enemy, and the archers of the vanguard had escaped from their formation, galloping back and forth, but there was still chaos behind, as if they were assigning men to guard the spoils, and the cries of the captured women could be heard.
"Everyone, work hard! The enemy has no fighting spirit, and our victory is decided!" Li Yinhuan sat on the back of the Kodo beast and beat the war drums to boost morale.
The drumsticks emitted a demonic black light, and between the howling winds, the entire formation seemed to be connected by the will of heaven and earth, and the power of the formation guided the blood and qi of all the soldiers.
Each of the soldiers of the Soul Eater tribe had a bloodthirsty and fanatical look, a greed for goods, livestock, and women.
This is where the morale of the army comes from.
On the other side, the patriarch of the Lanto clan, who was leading the army instead of Dulei, waved the saber in his hand and snapped.
The Divine Thunder Tribe's formation began to fluctuate. The horse archers shot sharp essence in their eyes, bent their bows and arrows, and the dense rain of arrows cut through the icy sky with a strong arc, landing in the vanguard of the Soul Eater Tribe.
For example, the wings of the wild goose fanned, forming a situation of advancing and retreating, and the arrows produced a layered echelon blow to the military strength of the Soul Eater Pattern tribe.
At the head of the goose, the chieftaincy guard led by Lantotu was armed with a copper hammer and waited for it.
Shoot arrows immediately, the hit rate is not high, and the Soul Devouring Tribe is known for riding and fighting, and the sabers in the hands of the knights are dancing, silver as snow, even if the arrows that are about to hit, they have been pushed away and landed.
It's just that the formation of the Soul Devouring Pattern Tribe is a sharp arrow formation, which seems to be slightly denser.
The steppe people are tall and powerful, but they are mostly dressed in light armor, and their defensive power is not as good as the fish scale armor of Middle-earth.
Therefore, under the intensive firing of arrows, more than a dozen people were still hit by arrows and fell from their horses, and there were also many injured people.
Li Yinhuan rode the Kodo beast and personally led the knights to charge.
The horse archers in front of the Divine Thunder Tribe's formation quickly dispersed, retreating along the gap in the formation, and the cavalry rushed back with long swords.
Rumble!
Like a comet hitting the ground, the exchange of weapons roared like rain, the formation rushed against each other, and the energy cyclone swept away, and then turned into a rain of flesh and blood!
The soldier who fell from his horse was about to be trampled into a pulp by the horse's hooves in an instant. The horses that had lost their owners scurried around in a daze, letting out a burst of wailing.
The first round of charges turned out to be evenly divided.
But Li Yinhuan clearly sensed that the power of the Divine Thunder Tribe's formation was trembling, and in the face of the strong soldiers of the Soul Devouring Pattern Tribe, it would soon reveal its decline.
Horse fighting is the strong point of the Soul Eater tribe's soldiers, and the Thunder Tribe is known for their bows and arrows.
Previously, the Divine Thunder Tribe shot a round to suppress the momentum of the Soul Devouring Pattern Tribe, but now that they have begun to engage in short-handed combat, the bow and arrow are not so useful.
"Everyone, charge with me!" Li Yinhuan shouted, beating the war drum, and the Kodo beast shook off its hooves and galloped forward.
The drum beat was like thunder, and the more than 1,000 soldiers of the Soul Devouring Pattern tribe saw that Li Yinhuan was taking the lead, and they all exuded an awe-inspiring battle intent, and their fighting spirit became higher and higher.
The thick arrows of the Arrow Array are like a giant hammer rushing into the car, trying to chisel through the opponent's goose array like a city gate!
Li Yinhuan saw two guards holding long-handled war hammers, urging their war horses and rushing towards him.
He laughed, and the Kodomon used the big horns on its head to exert a force, and when he landed, he pierced through one of the guards and his horse, and threw them away, throwing the internal organs and flesh together, and then opened his mouth to bite, and then bit the other guard with the war hammer into two pieces, and chewed it fiercely!
The Kodomon was so ferocious that the soldiers of the Divine Thunder Tribe couldn't help but be terrified, and the soldiers of the Soul Eater Tribe were in high spirits and shouted, "The leader is mighty!"
Lantotu shouted, "Foot soldiers, ready!"
The Soul Eater Tribe used the thick arrows of the Blade Array to attack the weak goose heads of the Thunder Tribe's Goose Walking Array, plus the advantage of being good at cavalry combat. The Divine Thunder Tribe relied on these Warhammer Knights to rush against each other, which was really difficult to resist.
Foot soldiers armed with spears and large shields lined up in thick lines behind the cavalry, and the Warhammer Knights, who could not resist the onslaught, quickly dispersed after the engagement, and the elite foot soldiers resisted the further onslaught of the enemy.
The continuous shield wall was as thick as a mountain, but in the face of the tsunami of the elite knights of the Soul Eater Tribe, it also let out a panic-like tremble, and from time to time a soldier was knocked out by the shield and fell into a meat patty.
The spear is certainly the nemesis of the cavalry, but the grassland is barren, and the equipment is not as good as that of Middle-earth, and in the face of the high-speed impact of good horses, some spears are bent or even broken.
Li Yinhuan urged the Kodomon to retreat, ready to launch a second charge.
"The enemy's central army was pressed back by us, but the flanks were still moving forward. Pay attention to outflanking. Li Yinhuan gave an order.
The war drum in his hand is beaten, and a certain rhythm is produced, so that his meaning can be understood by his subordinates.
The outflanking method of the geese marching formation is to turn the two sides of the herringbone formation forward to form an M-shape, and the Divine Thunder tribe has a numerical advantage enough to implement such a tactic.
The four people in charge of the two wings of the Soul Devouring Pattern Tribe, Demon Feather Chen, Fang Shengxue, Ye Zhiqiu, and Qi Hei, received the order, and immediately raised their vigilance, striving to hold the flank and ensure that the direction of the Chinese army could successfully cut through the enemy formation.
It is true that the Blade Array can restrain the wild goose formation, but command is also very important, and if there is a mistake, it may be outflanked by the enemy, and the weakest tail end will be attacked, and then it will be counter-defeated, and it is very likely that the whole army will be destroyed.
The wings of the geese marched frantically with arrows, closing in on the two wings of the Blade Array.
In the direction of the Chinese army, it was the Divine Thunder Tribe that defended, and the Soul Devouring Tribe attacked. In the direction of the two wings, the Divine Thunder Tribe attacked, and the Soul Devouring Tribe defended.
It seems that the side that breaks through the enemy's defenses first will win the battle. However, the Divine Thunder Tribe's charging ability is obviously inferior to that of the Soul Devouring Pattern Tribe, although it has a numerical advantage, but the number of soldiers is at a disadvantage.
Under round after round of charges, the Chinese army of the Divine Thunder Tribe became more and more crumbling. And with such a white-hot battle, the Divine Thunder Tribe has no time to change the formation.
"The victory or defeat is already obvious!" Li Yinhuan urged the Kodo Beast: "Everyone follow me to launch another charge and completely defeat the enemy's Chinese army!"
His drums were like a landslide and a tsunami, leading the angry horses forward like a tide, causing grass to fly all over the ground and smoke and dust.
The battle aura emanating from the bodies of the cavalry was connected by a mysterious force. Each knight exuded a brilliant frost-white brilliance around him, and the sound of horses' hooves was as urgent as thunder.
After a round of fierce fighting, Li Yinhuan relied on the accumulated fighting spirit and finally launched the cavalry tactics.
Big Collision!
Several thunderous explosions. I saw that the warhammer cavalry array in front of me was scattered by the impact, and some knights were led by men and horses, and they were directly lifted into the air by the monstrous force, turning into blood flowers and exploding. Then the infantry array in the rear also shattered under the violent impact, and where the saber flickered, one by one the heads flew into the air!
The formation of the Divine Thunder Tribe has finally been chiseled through!
Li Yinhuan laughed wildly and commanded the soldiers to slash wildly, slaughtering the soldiers of the Chinese army of the Divine Thunder Tribe who had collapsed.
Rantotu fled.
A sharp arrow shot from his back, straight into his chest.
Lantotu lowered his head and looked at the arrow incredulously.
His eyes flickered, as if he understood something, but his lips moved, and he was already speechless, and his whole body exploded with a bang, turning into a cloud of blood mist.
The main general was killed in battle, and the army of the Divine Thunder Tribe became more and more chaotic.
The ranks of the Soul Eater Tribe continued to rush forward like a tidal wave.
"The enemy has collapsed!hahahaha!" Li Yinhuan laughed wildly, he never expected that in just a few charges, he would achieve such brilliant results. The enemy army, dragged down by the spoils of war, is really vulnerable!
If Lantotu is not dead, the enemy army may also regroup and encircle it again with two wings, but now that the main general is also dead, the Divine Thunder Tribe will rush to the wolf, and there will be no power to fight back!
Of course, the soldiers of the Soul Eater Tribe thought the same way.
One by one, they cheered wildly and sang high pastoral songs.
In the field behind, something shiny caught their eye.
After cutting through the Chinese army of the Divine Thunder Tribe, the rear army used to guard the spoils of war was revealed before their eyes. There was not much of a procession, and there were a lot of livestock, treasure, and women.
"Mine, mine, it's all mine!" the soldiers of the Soul Eater Tribe swooped in that direction.
The enemy army has collapsed, and it is time to start fighting for the loot. The environment on the grassland is extremely cruel, and everyone is most concerned about immediate interests.
Like a wolf entering a flock, the thin rear army was quickly scattered and cut down one by one. But the soldiers of the Soul Eater Tribe didn't care about them at all.
The soldiers frantically scrambled over the treasures piled up on the carts, tugged at the women who were crying and screaming, and even fought and killed for it.
Seeing that his own formation was getting thinner and thinner, Li Yinhuan suddenly had an ominous premonition.
However, the Chinese army has been broken, the main general has been killed, and it is unlikely that the enemy will have the strength to fight back. Obviously, both flanks of the enemy army also began to rout due to the collapse of the Chinese army.
But at this moment, a wild roar pierced the vast sky.
In the left wing of the Divine Thunder Tribe, a man in black abruptly removed his mask, revealing a fat pie face.
"Ladies and gentlemen, charge with me!"
It was none other than the chief of the Divine Thunder tribe, Durrey.
At the same time, among the right-wingers, the soft and immature words sounded, but for some reason, they had the power to penetrate the hearts of the people.
"The suppressed emotions and the accumulated resentment are all swept against the enemy like a storm at this moment! All grievances are remedied from now on! All patience is for the most glorious victory!"
"The charge, the destruction of the enemy, is at hand. ”
Everyone could hear it clearly.
The Thunder Tribe soldiers stopped their fear, and they felt as if the blood was burning.
All this is Li Xun's strategy.
The front of the Chinese army is indeed equipped with the most elite chieftain guards, but the rest of the troops are old and weak.
Real elite troops, equipped on both wings.
The so-called Divine Thunder tribe attacked the small tribe and seized a large amount of booty, which is of course also fake. Those gold and silver treasures, livestock, and women were originally brought out from the Divine Thunder Tribe, but they were disguised as war booty to create a false impression that the Divine Thunder tribe was dragged down by a huge amount of loot, and suffered from gains and losses.
At the same time, it can control the marching route at will, so that the Soul Eater Tribe cannot sneak attack from the side, but can only attack head-on.
The Soul Devouring Pattern Tribe's attack on the Divine Thunder Tribe's central army will be stubbornly blocked at first, so that Li Yinhuan will not be suspicious. But then, the Chinese army will be quickly defeated.
Rantotu was ordered to be defeated but not to win, but when he finished his mission and was about to retreat, Durey shot a cold arrow with his own hand, killing him with one arrow. Only in this way can Li Yinhuan be completely deceived and foolproof!
When Li Yinhuan broke through the Chinese army, the soldiers of the Soul Devouring Pattern tribe saw the spoils like mountains and seas, and they were bound to go crazy. Traditionally, believing that the winner was decided, they would start a frenzied scramble for the spoils of war.
The Soul Eater tribe believes that by cutting off the head of a wild goose, it can be killed completely. But the truth is that the wings of the wild goose have a more tenacious vitality, completely enveloping the intruding enemy, forming an airtight pocket.
It was as if two cliffs were facing each other, suddenly closing, crushing everything in between.
Although Durrey is not good, as a large tribal chief, he has the ability to command one aspect alone. And Li Xun spent half a month training this group of soldiers, and he was able to command them like an arm.
The roar spread with the cold wind, and the soldiers of the Divine Thunder Tribe, who had been suppressed for too long, were finally able to vent their anger!
They saw their possessions and wives and daughters disguised as booty and plundered by the enemy. Everyone gritted their teeth, clenched their weapons, and swooped down on the enemy like tigers descending from the mountains.
Like a flood out of the gate, it is full of energy.
At this time, the two wings of the Soul Devouring Tribe had just been tightened, and they were interspersed into the Divine Thunder Tribe's array like wedges, and they saw that the soldiers of the Divine Thunder Tribe were all like mad tigers and angry wolves, rushing towards their side.
The enemy army, which was still in the process of being scattered, suddenly showed terrible morale!
Li Xun jumped up from the war horse, his body was fluttering, his sword was fluttering, and he danced in the air.
His pupils emitted a cold and strange light, like a boy who walked out of the underworld, his face was beautiful, but his expression was like frost, faintly revealing an invisible evil.
A blue-armored knight turned his horse, hissing like thunder, and approached him.
"Boy, is it all your calculations?" shouted the blue-armored knight, realizing that with Durrey's brain, there could be no such terrible arrangement.
Those soldiers who were frantically scrambling for the spoils of war had been rushed by the cavalry who had been outflanked like a tide, and they collapsed and trampled on each other, and countless people died.
And the nearly 2,000 troops of the Soul Eater Tribe also fell into the other party's encirclement network.
The soldiers behind Li Xun looked at the little boy's gaze, obviously revealing deep awe.
"Yes. Li Xun said softly.
"So...... You will die! Ye Zhiqiu, the general under the command of Li Yinhuan's leader, desperately wants to take your head!" Ye Zhiqiu roared and stabbed angrily with a spear.
"The four seas burst the embankment, and the stars enter the three rivers. Li Xun's voice was cold.
His body suddenly brightened, and the power of the primordial spirit radiated from the three hundred and sixty-five points of his body, and his body seemed to turn into a Zhou Tian star map, and the star power burst out, forming a powerful star power field.
The one-yuan heavy water in the dantian rises in the wind, and with the flying sword erupting out, the shadow of the three rivers is shrouded in the wind.
Ye Zhiqiu felt the cold penetrate his bones, eroding his blood.
His spear was frozen in its entirety, and then snapped off, and a whistling phantom, filled his body with the breath of all spirits.
The three rivers attracted the soul, making Ye Zhiqiu go to the underworld.
Li Xun took out a handkerchief, wiped away the little blood that had been splattered on his face, and turned around.
Ye Zhiqiu even led the people and horses, and fell down with a bang, and there were countless fine holes on the bodies of the people and horses, which were the wounds left by the direct shooting of the one-yuan heavy water.
Several horsemen rushed to.
"It's Ye Zhiqiu, the heavy general of the Soul Devouring Pattern Tribe!"
Ye Zhiqiu had led the Einsatzgruppen to attack the grasslands of the Shenting tribe many times, looting women, and killing warriors, which made the entire Shenting tribe feel gnashing their teeth at him.
These people began to snatch Ye Zhiqiu's body, and the corpse was quickly cut into several pieces by the saber, and blood flowed all over the ground, staining the withered grass on the ground red.
The person who got the head proudly hung Ye Zhiqiu's bloody head on the neck of his war horse.
Li Xun's eyes looked at these people lightly, and he couldn't see what he was thinking.
Boring.
It's not that we're war-wearing, it's not that we're afraid of blood, it's just boring.
He didn't know why he felt that way. On the one hand, I like the feeling of playing with conspiracy, and on the other hand, I think such scenes are so boring.
Obviously he is still a teenager, is the blood already cold?
Li Xun suddenly felt a dazedness, but he didn't know where this dazedness came from, and he didn't know how to get rid of it.
No matter who he looks at, he can show a beautiful and gentle smile. But in this battlefield of thousands of troops, he was expressionless and inexplicably lost. (To be continued.) )
