Chapter 193: Infantry Confrontation
As the drums rang out, the soldiers of the tide moved slowly in neat steps. The team of tens of thousands of people was just a number, but when you arrived on the real battlefield, you realized that it was simply a sea of people. Tens of thousands of people spread out on the grass, and you could hardly see the boundaries when you looked up.
"Everyone obeys the order, kill them, kill them all, and catch King Lu Yan to reward a thousand gold!" The leader of the rebel army ordered loudly.
As the leader's order was issued, the soldiers of the rebel army began to move, and the target was the Andong army in front of him.
At this moment, Lu Xiangsheng's Tianxiong Army and the Guard Army also began to gather. Lu Xiangsheng's purpose was very clear. He decided to hand over this battle to the Andong Army. Therefore, the Tianxiong Army was arranged on both sides of the Andong Army, with the purpose of protecting the two wings of the Andong Army.
If we look at the number of people, this is a battle with great strength. The number of people who were directly pulled to the battlefield was at least 30,000. Apart from the auxiliary soldiers and civil servants, the number of elite soldiers was as large as thousands. On the other hand, the Ming army, except for the Andong army in Lin Dong and the Tianxiong army in Lu Xiangsheng, the other guards were mostly auxiliary soldiers and civil servants, and the number of elite soldiers was only more than two thousand, and their combat effectiveness was limited.
Besides, the Tianxiong Army had no fighting spirit in the new defeat. If Lu Xiangsheng had not taken the lead, he would have dispersed. It was precisely this way that Lu Xiangsheng did not directly pull the Tianxiong Army up, but instead laid the Tianxiong Army on both wings of the Andong Army as a cover, hoping to use the Andong Army to enhance the morale of the Tianxiong Army.
"Dear leaders, how do you think of this battle?" At this time, the rebel army had arrived a mile ahead of the Andong army, and could see the opponent's flags and square formations.
"What's the difficulty? Minggou is just a few people, rush up and kill him without leaving any armor." A leader snorted coldly.
"In my opinion, it is better to surround him and annihilate him!" At this time, a leader stood up and said.
Everyone looked at each other, and saw that the man had a beard on his face, which was full of stars.
"This idea is good. Don't they want to make dumplings for us? We'll give him a try today." The leaders agreed.
Seeing everyone's agreement, Mantianxing was also happy and immediately expressed his thoughts.
According to his arrangement, the army of Yidou Valley and the Dangong Rooster first faced the front, while the other teams surrounded them from both wings, and the Anton Army must be eliminated on this land.
After a brief discussion, everyone agreed to this opinion. Everyone despised this team, and this little manpower was nothing in front of tens of thousands of troops.
Even Yidougu and Qian Gongji did not take An Dongjun seriously. After all, there were too few teams of about a thousand people.
When the military order was issued, Huang Long and his men rushed up directly with their troops, and soon came hundreds of steps away. They looked up and could see the other person's face clearly.
Huang Long looked up and saw that there were people opposite him, and these were clearly iron men.
In fact, it is not accurate to say that it is an iron man. It should be said to be a sea of metal, because they found that the troops in front were wrapped in bright armor from head to toe, and these people were shining with metallic luster all over their bodies.
Even their faces were covered with metallic shiny faces.
When they saw the situation on the other side, they took a breath. What kind of army is this? Why is it so rich? Looking at the soldiers behind them, they are simply a group of beggars.
"Brother, this battle is not as easy as I imagined!" Huang Long sighed and said.
"Yes, I didn't expect these people to be equipped so well. I'm afraid even the border troops won't be able to catch up." Zhang Er said with a depressed look on his face.
The two of them finally got a chance to take the lead, but they thought they had gained the benefits but they didn't expect to encounter a tough guy. What should we do?
"Indeed, depending on their equipment, this army is definitely not simple, so it's better to be careful." Huang Long said with a gloomy expression.
"Then, in my opinion, how should we fight this battle?" Zhang Er's face was not good-looking.
"Don't they want to make enemy dumplings? Then let's wait until their encirclement is closed before talking." None of the leaders of the rebel army were not ghostly spirits, so they naturally did not want to go up first to die.
"This idea is good, just do as Brother Huang wants." Zhang Er immediately coughed and said, "Tell me to order me and stop moving forward."
At this time, Andong's army had already seen the situation of the rebel army. Seeing the rebel army's wings slowly moving, Li Da was very anxious.
"General, it seems that the Chuangjun wants to make our dumplings."
"A group of mobs, what's there to worry about? Today, I'll give him a center to blossom."
"Li Da, please immediately report the situation here to the supervisor. Please cooperate with the inside and outside to eliminate the rebel army from Wuliqiao east." Lin Dong said with a sneer.
When the leaders of the rebel army saw that An Dongjun was not moving, their eyes were filled with joy. As long as the encirclement was formed, with your little manpower, wouldn’t it be easy to capture it?
The army moved slowly, and a huge encirclement gradually formed, and the rebel army slowly moved towards the Andong army with neat steps.
"What should we do now, General?" Xiong Yue rubbed his hands and asked with anticipation.
Lin Dong looked around for a while and saw a high ground not far away. This high ground is about ten meters higher than other places. There is a platform on the high ground, which can accommodate thousands of people.
"Tell me to order the team to that high ground." Lin Dong said with a raised point to the hill not far away.
Lin Dong's order came out, and An Dong's army immediately moved and soon climbed to the top of the mountain.
After climbing to the high ground, Lin Dong ordered people to form a huge square formation on the top of the mountain to fill the entire mountain. In this way, the Anton army could use the advantage of the geographical advantage to attack the enemy.
Watching Anton's army move towards the high ground, the leaders of the rebel army looked disdainful. Do you really think that just a few people can fight against their army?
"Everyone obeys the order and kills!"
The commands of the leaders were issued, and a siege began. The team of tens of thousands of rebels gradually surrounded, surrounding the Anton army on a narrow mountain.
The rebel army continued to advance, and the distance between the two armies gradually narrowed, and soon it reached three hundred steps away.
"Stop!" When the rebel army moved to two hundred steps, the leaders raised their hands and ordered the soldiers to stop advancing.
"Bowman ready."
"shoot!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the feather arrow flew out and immediately fell towards the Andong army like raindrops.
"Rise the shield!" Faced with such an arc rain, the generals of Andong's army had already summarized their own methods. Before Lin Dong could order, he raised his hand and a shield appeared above his head.
Other soldiers also raised their shields to welcome the arrival of this rain of arrows.
