Chapter Fifty-Six: The Battle of Fengyang Ten
Lin Dong paused slightly and waved his hands to the crowd. After the crowd calmed down, Lin Dong said: "Dear fellow villagers, although our Anton Army has a small number of people, at this time when the country is in danger and the people are in danger, personal safety and honor and disgrace are not important.
What, I, the Anton Army, will definitely not disregard the life and death of the people. If you, fellow villagers, trust me, Lin Dong, please listen to my orders."
"I am willing to listen to the general's orders!" everyone replied in unison.
"Okay, although our Anton army is small in number, we will not abandon any of the people. I order all women, children, and the elderly to get on the boat and leave first. The others will follow me out of Fengyang." Lin Dong's words were sonorous and powerful.
Everyone was excited immediately. This is the army of the imperial court. In times of crisis, only teams like the Anton Army will value the lives of the people more than their own. Lin Dong, thank you, thank you!
Afterwards, everyone started to move. What was surprising was that this time the refugees were very conscious. None of the young men got on the boat. They put their wives, children and old people on the boat and then voluntarily left.
Come down and stand quietly behind Lin Dong.
Lin Dong glanced with satisfaction at the tens of thousands of men in front of him. The oldest among them was already in his forties or fifties, while the youngest was only thirteen or fourteen years old. These people all stayed here voluntarily.
"Brothers, there are intruders everywhere outside the city now. Whether we can leave Fengyang depends on us. Li Da, go get the weapons."
Li Da took the order and immediately led a group of soldiers to carry up boxes of weapons. These weapons were brought by the Anton Army and some were plundered from Fengyang warehouse. Now it is best to distribute them to these young men.
but.
After distributing the weapons, Lin Dong did not set off immediately. Instead, he asked Li Da to mobilize dozens of people and divide the thousands of strong men into dozens of squads. Each soldier led a squad, and Li Da led the squad in front.
A team of two hundred people opened the way in front, and Lin Dong followed behind with other troops.
In this way, a team of thousands of people instantly expanded into a team of tens of thousands. It's a pity that these people are civilians and have not experienced any military training. Otherwise, even if the main force of thieves comes, what's the point?
fear?
Under Lin Dong's arrangement, the leader quickly took control of the team, organized the entire team, and led them to follow Li Da towards the south gate.
Lin Dong has already calculated that only the east gate and the south gate are currently safe. Beyond the south gate is the direction of the imperial mausoleum. Tens of thousands of guardsmen are stationed here. If the intruders attack, these guardsmen will at least be safe.
You can block it.
"Brothers, according to the news from the scouts, Li Zicheng has led a large group of troops into the city. Now only the south gate and the east gate have not been occupied by the intruders. As long as we rush out of the city, we still have hope."
"I am willing to follow the general." All the sergeants responded loudly.
"Okay, Li Da will march towards the south gate as the vanguard. Black Bear, you lead 300 people to cut off the rear." Lin Dong ordered.
After receiving the general's order, everyone went straight to the south gate to kill.
What Lin Dong didn't expect was that just as they were about to leave, a group of people suddenly came from behind and saw that their flag was actually Gao Jie.
"What a great Gao Jie, you came so quickly." Lin Dong snorted coldly and ordered: "Li Da, you take them and leave first. We will be there soon."
Li Da did not dare to delay and led the people towards the south gate. Only Lin Dong and Hei Xiong were left here with hundreds of Anton troops to block the invading army.
"You were the one who defeated Liu Zongmin?" Gao Jie looked at the troops in front of him, which numbered no more than a thousand men at most, with a look of disdain.
"Liu Zongmin? Are you talking about the thief who only knows how to escape?" Lin Dong said with contempt.
"Gao Jie has been preaching for so long, and you are the first one who dares to scold Liu Zongmin like this. I like you, haha..."
Lin Dong's face darkened. He didn't know what Gao Jie meant, but he had no intention of avenging Gao Jie.
"Don't talk nonsense. If you want to avenge Liu Zongmin, that thief, just come here."
"Haha, revenge is not enough, but you can't even think of leaving Fengyang today. Brothers, come with me and kill them all." Gao Jie laughed and led his team to kill Lin Dong.
"Set up the formation!" Lin Dong ignored Gao Jie and ordered loudly.
With previous experience, Anton's army has matured a lot, and they quickly formed a formation under the command of Lin Dong.
"Spear, stab!" Lin Dong ordered loudly.
"Spear, stab!" the soldiers shouted and repeated the order.
"This is the strange formation that Liu Zongmin said, okay, let's see how I break the formation." Gao Jie laughed, and immediately swung his spear and attacked the first row of spearmen.
"Spear, stab..." The black bear's face tightened and he roared loudly.
"Spear, stab..." Countless spears were thrust out one after another at the black bear's command.
As soon as Gao Jie's spear reached him, several spears came towards him. He was frightened and hurriedly swung the spear away from his chest.
However, at this moment, he felt a pain in his right rib. He was frightened and without caring about hurting the enemy, he hurriedly rolled away and retreated about ten feet away. At this time, his right rib was already a bloody mess.
"What a pity." Lin Dong sighed secretly. This Gao Jie is really powerful. He was able to escape in such a situation. He really deserves the title of a kite that can climb mountains.
Gao Jie touched the blood on his right rib and his face became extremely gloomy.
"Okay, okay, okay, this strange formation does have some tricks up its sleeve." Gao Jie said three good words in a row, but his face was extremely ugly. It was obvious how angry he was at this moment.
"Come here, everyone, and kill them all."
"Yes, general!" The Chuang army began to move, and they marched towards the Anton army with great momentum.
"Spear, stab..." Faced with the enemy's murderous intent, Lin Dong did not flinch at all and shouted the slogan loudly.
Everyone's spears were thrust out again, and for a moment the sound of popping sounded again, followed by constant screams. As the spears continued to thrust out, large swaths of the intruders fell one after another.
Soon, few of the intruders who advanced to fight were left. It was only then that they discovered that all the brothers in front were dead.
What kind of army is this? They are not humans at all. They are devils, devils who specialize in killing people. Because for so long, the Anton Army has remained unscathed.
"Devil, devil, run away..." The intruders who had not yet rushed forward could no longer bear the threat of death and ran to the rear, shouting.
Seeing the intruders retreating, Lin Dong waved his hand: "Stop attacking!"
Upon hearing the order, Anton's army stopped attacking one after another, sticking out their spears one by one and taking precautions.
"Is this all you, Gao Jie, have?" Lin Dong sneered. He knew that at this time, only by scaring them, beating them painfully, and leaving a shadow on them could Anton's army have a glimmer of hope.
"Hmph, do you think you can escape Fengyang with this little skill?" Gao Jie said unhurriedly, but his eyes swept over every soldier of the Anton Army.
"What kind of army is this? The strictness of military discipline is not as good as that of the official army." Gao Jie secretly muttered in his heart, but this was not the reason for them to retreat.
"Brothers, charge with me and kill them all." Under Gao Jie's order, the second attack began.
The Chuang army lined up in a long line and moved toward the Anton Army step by step, with the intention of swallowing up the entire Anton Army in one mouthful.
"Come forward!" Lin Dong advanced instead of retreating, commanding the spear phalanx to march up to the intruders step by step with neat steps.
Twenty steps, ten steps...
"Spear, stab!" The two armies were getting closer and closer. When Lin Dong saw that the other party had entered the attack range, he immediately shouted loudly.
"Spear, thrust!"
Waves of screams were heard, and the soldiers in the front row were stabbed to the ground without any chance to fight back.
"How did this battle end like this? How did it end like this?" Looking at the rows of fallen soldiers, Gao Jie broke into a cold sweat. He had experienced countless battles, large and small, and had never encountered such a vicious army.
"Brothers, charge!" Gao Jie did not believe in evil. He believed that as long as there were more people, he would be able to overwhelm the opponent's formation.
However, this time he miscalculated, because the opponent's formation was not affected at all. On the contrary, his own army was beaten to death in front of his eyes like a rabbit.
"Brothers, disperse them!" Seeing the soldiers dying in rows, the whole army began to become restless. He was anxious. If he retreated at this time, all the previous achievements would be wasted.
"General, we can't charge anymore. If we charge any further, we will all die." At this time, a general ran over and begged.
"Wang Yan, do you dare to disobey military orders?" Gao Jie was furious.
"General, look, look, these are our brothers. If we charge any further, they will all die." The general named Wang Yan said in pain.
"Whoever dares to retreat will be killed without mercy." Gao Jie was extremely determined. He believed that as long as he persisted, he would be able to break up the opponent's formation.
However, he miscalculated, and in the blink of an eye, several rows of intruders were stabbed to death with spears, screaming in agony.
"Failed! Defeated!"
I don't know who suddenly shouted, and the entire army suddenly became confused. Everyone dropped their weapons and retreated back like a tide.
"You are not allowed to retreat. Anyone who dares to retreat will be killed without mercy." Gao Jie roared angrily.
However, there were so many retreating soldiers that they couldn't be killed at once. In a blink of an eye, the supervising team was scattered, and the attacking soldiers were scattered everywhere.
"Gao Jie, what's going on?" Lin Dong glanced at Gao Jie coldly and said coldly: "I, Anton Army, am leaving, do you think you can stop me?"
Gao Jie was immediately furious, "Dear Lin Dong, you can't even think of escaping Fengyang today."
Lin Dong ignored it. The battle just now had a certain deterrent effect. I believe Gao Jie did not dare to get too close, so he immediately ordered: "Retreat!"
Anton's army received the order, and immediately the front team changed to the rear team, and the rear team changed to the front team, marching in the direction of Li Da's retreat with neat steps.
"Chase..." Seeing Anton's army retreating safely after killing so many brothers, Gao Jie was furious and ordered everyone to pursue them immediately.
I heard that we were going to pursue him. Everyone looked at me and I looked at you, feeling extremely worried.
