Chapter 255 Mobei makes a killing move(1/2)

Immediately afterwards, there was the third wave of water bags that captured the fighter planes. This time, it was obvious that the Mobei people had emptied all the stocks.

In this wave, thousands of water bags rose into the air in the flickering light of the fire, and smashed towards the soldiers of the Holy Mountain who were pushing and trampling each other.

Then, a rocket can basically only be responsible for igniting a water bag.

However, the difference is actually not big.

At this time, in the chaotic formation of the Holy Mountain army, large and small fires could be seen almost everywhere, and there were many people burning them.

There were also many cases where the missing water bladders were stepped on or even set on fire.

Those soldiers of the Holy Mountain who were originally standing on the front line and were harmed by friendly forces rushed towards their own people regardless of it. Even if they were stabbed to death by their own people, it was still better than being burned to death by fire.

!

In the desolate night, with the strong wind howling and whimpering, this scene is like the legendary purgatory!

The 20,000 troops of the Holy Mountain Army who were fighting at the front were forced to retreat. They even chose to cut off their tails amidst the roars of the 10,000-strong leader, abandoning the three or four thousand Holy Mountain soldiers who were in a mess, and retreated to the river valley.

Middle, regroup.

The formation of the Mobei people slowly retreated, and the Selimu archers in their formation killed the Pyromen one by one who had lost their way to the shore at this time, which was considered a good deed.

call!

call!

call!

The sound of heavy objects breaking through the air sounded one after another.

Three huge black shadows streaked across the night sky, passing over the firelights, and smashed into the Mobei people's formation with an earth-shattering force.

These three boulders, which were two minutes larger than a millstone, smashed into the Mobei people's formation, and immediately opened three bloody paths, causing at least hundreds of casualties!

It turned out that Dawut adhered to the "Compassion does not lead troops" as stated in the military book. Although he was aware of the murderous intention hidden in the Mobei formation, he still had the three trebuchets pushed forward from the rear formation.

Dawuti only wanted to cause damage to the Mobei people and boost their morale, so he did not immediately issue a retreat order. He only had the intention of fighting with the opponent to consume.

Fifty thousand versus 30,000, if you put in the effort, the Holy Mountain Army should have a much greater chance of winning.

Moreover, judging from the opponent's combat strength, it is obvious that they are the main force of Mobei. If they can cripple this group of people, Mobei will have easy access!

However, Dawut somewhat underestimated the opponent's fire attack ability and overestimated his own fighting will. In this round of back-and-forth offense and defense, the two warring parties could barely manage a draw.

After the three trebuchets showed off their brutality, they lined up in a row and quickly pushed them back to the rear.

After all, the size of the trebuchets is not small. When the three trebuchets are placed in front of the formation, they occupy less than half of the area at the mouth of the valley.

It was just when the trebuchet was ready that the two thousand commanders cut off their tails and retreated under Dawuti's flag order to protect the position of the trebuchet, lest it be attacked and destroyed by the Mobei Ten Thousand Cavalry.

Such a large instrument.

When the two sides stood up again, the flames between the two sides had weakened a lot, and only a few weak flames were left flickering tenaciously, seeming to tell people that there had been countless living lives here.

Although now all that is left is a black coal-like thing that maintains the posture of exhaling its last breath.

The air is still filled with the smell of burning barbecue, which makes people feel sick!

Next, according to the normal process in the tea house storybook, it is nothing more than the two sides regaining their strength and fighting again.

However, the Mobei people rewrote the script.

Under the gaze of tens of thousands of people from the Holy Mountain Army, they silently intercepted a strange-shaped thing.

That thing looked like a pig's snout, with a section sticking out.

Then, more than a dozen passages appeared in the formation of the Mobei people.

Many thin Mobei people pushed various carts and transported dozens of other large iron pots to the front of the formation, and lit them with quick hands and feet.

The familiar black smoke, like a sandstorm, was swept towards the formation of the Holy Mountain army by the wind.

Judging from the large water bags placed by the Mobei people next to the big iron pot, this wave of smoke will probably not last short.

"They are wasting time, waiting for Selimu's reinforcements to arrive on the battlefield!" Dawuti predicted the opponent's intention, but he was also itching his teeth with hatred.

After all, Shi Zhishui, which was regarded as a dirty thing, was frequently used on the battlefield in the desert, and it often achieved miraculous results. It was actually used in such a way on the army he commanded!

Moreover, even though he knew this, he still couldn’t prevent it!

As the old saying goes, one learns from one's mistakes.

Dawut will not let his army continue to endure this nauseating and dizzy black smoke.

He waved his big hand forward and ordered the soldiers to come out in all directions.

The five phalanxes advanced together, actively seeking a fight with the Mobei army.

In a night battle, it can even be said that in the face of consecutive defeats, Dawut's ability to command the army is still worthy of praise.

Once the opponent's big iron pot is lit, it is "dead" and cannot be moved.

You Mobei people have the ability to change the direction of the wind!

The Holy Mountain army rushes out of the valley mouth to engage the enemy and avoid the thick smoke.

Of course, during the approximately one mile journey out of the valley entrance, you will have to take a few puffs of smoke.

Taking a step back, even if the battle is still in thick smoke, the two sides should be in the same environmental conditions, right? Can you Mobei people eliminate the influence of thick smoke?

Just as the Holy Mountain army advanced, the Mobei people who pushed out the iron pot and lit it did not stop, but continued to rush forward and uncover the ground.

It turns out that the Mobei army had planks buried under their feet!

Under the wooden planks are pits.

Inside the pit, there was that familiar smell again.

Then, this smell was turned into thick black smoke by the torches in the hands of those Mobei people.

The black smoke followed the strong wind and was involved in the formation of the Holy Mountain Army in advance. Soon the mouth of the valley was completely sealed!

Those hundreds of earth pits were obviously not dug temporarily! The Mobei people's army was originally standing in that area.

The battlefield at the mouth of the river valley is the main battlefield planned by the Mobei people!

I'm afraid the Mobei people have more than just these little tricks!

At this time, the sound of fierce fighting came from the highlands on both sides of the valley mouth.

Soon, the four thousand-man teams sent out by the Holy Mountain Army to seize the high ground were retreating steadily from the valley slopes on both sides.

In the end, less than half of the people were able to return to the ground!

The commander of the tens of thousands of troops reported back to Dawuti about his military intelligence. His face froze.

"There are at least dozens of warrior masters and great soul masters..."

"Thousands of people were ambushed on the high ground..."

"There are hundreds of huge stones on the highlands, and a large amount of sludge water is stored in the low-lying areas..."

After entering Mobei, Dawut got angry for the first time!

He lifted the sentry general off his horse and asked, "Didn't you explore the mouth of this valley two hours ago?!"

"Don't tell me about these rocks. Shi Zhishui ran up to the high ground by himself! There are also these pits and wooden boards!"

"There are hundreds of outposts on the road you command, are they all blind?!"

The general made a grimace and said firmly: "Lord Commander, these things did not exist before! I will guarantee it with my head!"

"To complete this in just two hours, at least 10,000 or 20,000 people will be needed to start work at the same time! Where can there be so much idle labor or young people in the three major parts of Beishang Road?"

At this time, the outposts of the Holy Mountain Army finally took advantage of the cover of night to catch two Mobei people who rushed too close and tried to light the pit in front of the Holy Mountain Army. They removed their jaws and took them over.

Dawut suddenly thought of something and asked his guards to take off the shirts of the two men, revealing the slave brands on their bodies.

"When you investigated the military situation, did you not include all these slaves?" Dawut asked as he looked at the generals on various outposts.

There is no need for these generals to answer.

A sentry rushed to the edge of Dawuti's banner, dismounted, and quickly stepped forward to report: "Selim's 10,000-person team has already approached the Yutou Mine. But..."

"Those people are holding hoes and other farm tools. They don't look like soldiers from Mobei. They look more like slaves..."

"Only the hundreds of heavy cavalry in front, one person and three horses, are the real soldiers."

Dawuti's upright body hunched down, and his whole body was obviously hit hard. He muttered: "Using three hundred heavy cavalry that can run rampant among thousands of troops as suspects? What a big deal.

, what a great courage!”

"Haha! The rest of the ten thousand people are of course slaves. We have already made a mistake in estimating the number of soldiers capable of fighting on the Northern Trade Road. What a big mistake!"

"People from Mobei, they want to eat our army first and then go back to support the southern trade route! Hehe! Such a courageous strategy, Ashina, I have underestimated you!"

"Eh?! That's not right! Aren't the 20,000-person team on Nanshang Road still three days away?"

Thinking of this, Dawut looked around and asked: "Where is the Eagle Slave? Have any of you seen the Eagle Slave?"

A personal guard came closer and whispered: "Master Commander, didn't you send Eagle Slave out to investigate the military situation? He has been away from the army for at least an hour."

Arifu and his personal guard Centurion looked at each other.
To be continued...
