Chapter 94 The Hundreds Who Decided the Battle(1/2)
"kill!"
On the snowy plain, the sound of killing shook the sky.
The sounds of men and horses running, the sound of flesh and blood being separated, wild laughter, roars, and screams all rang out together.
On Ruoda's snowy ground, there were two groups: the Qian Kingdom and the Dayue Kingdom.
Nearly ten thousand soldiers of the country, mainly infantry, formed a military formation to defend and counterattack.
The soldiers of the Dayue Kingdom, whose number was only one-half of them, were mainly light-armored cavalry, blocking the escape route of the soldiers of the Qian Kingdom, and with hundreds of heavy-armored cavalry as the vanguard, they continued to charge and kill.
Regardless of the situation or the kill ratio, Otsuki has a firm upper hand.
But facing the Qian Kingdom, which was already their thorn in the urn, Dayue did not directly attack them, but wanted to deal with these Qian Kingdom soldiers at the lowest cost.
"It's all my fault. If I hadn't fallen into a trap due to greed, I would never have fallen into this dead end!"
On a snowdrift in the Qianguo army formation, the general in black and red armor couldn't help but blame himself.
Although the number of soldiers on his side was twice that of Otsuki's soldiers, it was never the numbers that determined the outcome of the battlefield.
Of the nearly 10,000 soldiers on our side, less than one-third are veterans, and the rest are basically new recruits. Many of them may have never even killed a chicken before, let alone killed someone.
And those soldiers of the Dayue Kingdom have grown up in a cruel environment since childhood and are proficient in the art of bow and horse. Even if they have never killed anyone, their hands are stained with the blood of a lot of prey. One person can often deal with three or more. There are many soldiers in the country.
If this continues, no matter how many people we have on our side, they will all be consumed.
"General Gu, reinforcements are coming!"
The deputy general suddenly pointed into the distance and repeated excitedly: "Our reinforcements are coming!"
General Gu immediately looked in the direction he was pointing, and the hope he had just raised was extinguished in an instant: "What kind of reinforcements is this?"
Over there, there was indeed a group of men and horses holding high the military flag of the Qian Kingdom rushing towards them.
But even though they were far apart, General Gu could tell that the force consisted of only a few hundred people. What impact could this small number of people have on the battle situation of tens of thousands of people?
Not only can you not save anyone, you may even get yourself involved.
"General, that's not an ordinary reinforcement, that's..."
The lieutenant accidentally bit his tongue. He paused and endured the pain and said, "It's those people!"
"those people?"
The hope in General Gu's heart rose again.
Normally, a few hundred people, even the Red Blood Army guarding the imperial city, he didn't think would be of any help to the current war situation.
But if these are really those people, maybe they can really help themselves.
After all, those people are called
——Kill the Moon Army!
"Kill those gangsters!"
The soldiers of Dayue had already discovered hundreds of people coming from the side.
Under the command of General Otsuki, a cavalry force of several hundred people was immediately detached, intending to strangle them directly.
"kill!"
The Moon Killing Army, which only had a few hundred people, showed no intention of retreating or stopping. Several hundred people shouted in unison: "Kill! Kill! Kill!"
In an instant, the two men and horses rushed into a group.
In just half a stick of incense, the winner was decided.
The Moon-killing Army rode out with full blood and energy, charging forward headlong into the Dayue Army, which had thousands of people in front of them.
Behind them were hundreds of war horses that had lost their owners, as well as the corpses of Dayue soldiers scattered all over the ground.
"Kill the Moon Army!"
"It's the Moon Killing Army, we are saved!"
"Everyone, the Moon Killing Army is here to help. It's time for us to rise up and resist!"
"Kill, kill these big moon ghosts! Kill them until they cry for father and mother!"
Only then did the soldiers of the Qian Kingdom see the Moon Killing Army rushing into the battlefield.
Although the Moon Killing Army only had a few hundred people, every soldier of the Qian Kingdom who saw them had their already somewhat decadent morale surge instantly and charged towards the nearest Big Moon soldier.
On the other hand, over at Dayue Kingdom, they were originally neat and orderly, playing with the soldiers of Qian Kingdom, but now they suddenly became panicked, with uncontrollable fear on their faces.
Many people even chanted words such as "demon", "messenger of death", and "we are doomed".
"Kill me!!!"
In the Killing Moon Army, a man who looked like a general gave orders.
Chi yo yo!
A large maroon horse took the lead in breaking away from the Moon Killing Army and rushed into the Moon Army alone.
The armored soldier on the maroon horse waved a long black stick, like a strong wind sweeping fallen leaves, and knocked a heavy armored cavalryman off his horse.
If you look carefully, you can see obvious dents on the armor.
There was another Sha Yue soldier, like a fish, darting through the surrounding Da Yue soldiers. It was obvious that he was not doing anything, but as long as the soldiers got close, they would cover their throats and fall to the ground.
Such a scene.
This happens to almost every soldier who kills the moon who goes deep into the army of the moon.
"Commander of the Killing Moon Army—Zhou Xiaozhi, Black Walker—Wu Chen, Cut Throat Sword—Lian Shaofeng..."
General Gu, who was on the high ground, after giving the order for the entire army to attack, saw the Moon Killing Army in the distance and felt heroic.
In Xuemen Pass, a death mill where hundreds of thousands of people have been buried within a year, many titles and names of the Moon Killing Army are widely circulated.
Think back to a few months ago.
The predecessor of the Moon Killing Army was just a group of pioneer battalions with less than half of them, most of whom were old, weak, sick and disabled.
The biggest use is to use it as bait on the battlefield.
But under the leadership of its general Zhou Xiaozhi, many martial arts practitioners who had just joined were assigned to the vanguard camp. After a month of training, a terrifying army was born that came and went without a trace.
On the battlefield at Xuemen Pass.
They are the saviors of every Qianguo army and the killers of every Dayue army.
Due to his outstanding performance, he was recently awarded the military title of the Moon Army.
"Run! Run!"
Facing the powerful Moon Killing Army alone and the sudden surge in morale of the Qian Kingdom soldiers, after trying to resist to no avail, the Dayue Army, from the general down to the soldiers, fled.
Take advantage of this opportunity.
The two Ganguo armies quickly slaughtered the soldiers of Otsuki, and finally left two-thirds of Otsutsuki's troops behind.
"Amitabha."
Seeing the people of Dayue Kingdom who had gone away, Wuchen put away the black flaming stick in his hand and headed towards the location of Army Commander Zhou Xiaozhi.
"Brother Wuchen, this time I killed thirteen big moon ghosts."
Lian Shaofeng rode up to him and told him about the process of killing the enemy with excitement on his face.
No one noticed that the blood stains on the black stick on Wuchen's back slowly merged into blood drops, as if being guided, and then slipped off the stick.
"The tool man has become stronger again."
Jiang Ren glanced at the corpses on the ground around him, then looked at Wuchen.
Even after months of fighting on the battlefield, Wuchen still did not break the killing habit.
Those hit by it will not die immediately, and at most they will be in a state of near-death. Most of them died from being trampled by men and horses and receiving last-minute blows after the battle.
The reason why Jiang Ren is so clear is that so far, he has not seen even a single point of blood energy.
"Commander Zhou, our army has a total of 21 killed this time, 10 were slightly injured, and 9 were seriously injured."
Outside, the adjutant in charge of statistics said.
Zhou Xiaozhi nodded, his expression almost unchanged: "It's not bad, I just need to add more people when I go back."
The people who killed the Moon Army around were silent.
No one thinks that military commanders disrespect the lives of their dead colleagues because they are used to death.
There are a total of 300,000 Qianguo troops stationed at Xuemen Pass. Excluding the Temptation Army, which was built purely on the premise of sacrifice, the Moon Killing Army has the highest death rate, and the full complement of 500 has never been reached from the beginning.
The highest number was only four hundred and fifty-three, and the lowest number was only over a hundred. Now, more than three hundred people are considered high.
If it hadn't been for the outstanding military exploits of the Shayue Army.
And thus obtained a steady stream of replenishment, I am afraid that all of them would have died long ago.
"There is no such thing as perfect in war."
