Jiang Yuan stood on horseback outside the tattoo army camp and saw that the firelight in the camp was gradually dwindling. He knew that if it was delayed too late, once daybreak, the Qi army would lose the advantage of making a surprise attack at night, and the enemy would be in the southeast, west, and east directions.
The strong combat power of the three troops could be brought into play, so according to the plan, all the infantry and cavalry of the Xinjin and Polu armies were ordered to charge into the Tattoo Army camp, which was almost burned to the ground.
After receiving the bugle call to launch the general attack, the soldiers of the two armies immediately put down their crossbows, drew their swords, shouted and charged towards the tattoo army in the North Camp, and then started a hand-to-hand fight! Suddenly, there were shouts of killing from both sides.
The sound of horses neighing, the sound of swords clashing, the sound of sharp blades entering the body, and the screams all became one!
The martial arts and courage of the Tatmen Army are no less than that of the New Jin Army and the Polu Army, but they either don't wear armor, are barefoot, or even unarmed, and many of them have burns on their bodies. Therefore, they are obviously unable to defeat those who are well-equipped and deliberately attack.
The officers and soldiers of the Xinjin and Polu armies, who were full of hatred, were quickly killed with blood everywhere, their stumps and heads flying everywhere, and corpses strewn all over the ground.
The tangy smell of blood, mixed with the choking smoke, poured into everyone's nostrils.
Han Tiezhu, the tenth commander of the new army, roared and rushed towards the tattoo army with his sword. With the first knife, he cut a tattoo soldier who was leaning on a wooden stake and gasping for air into two pieces with several arrows in his body! This was the first time in his life that he
He killed someone once, and the person he killed was a tattooed soldier who had a blood feud with him!
Han Tiezhu continued to charge forward regardless of the enemy's blood splashing all over his body. The enemy shot a sharp arrow on his shoulder, but Han Tiezhu only frowned, neither pulling out the arrow nor stopping in his steps.
A quick encounter with a tattooed centurion.
The tattooed centurion holding a spear was obviously better in martial arts than Han Tiezhu, but it was a pity that he only wore one of someone else's boots, and it didn't fit well. He only wore an underwear with burnt holes, and his long
He was not good with the spear and was restrained by Han Tiezhu's sword, so after a few moves, he was obviously at a disadvantage.
He was forced into danger by Han Tiezhu's machete and retreated step by step. He saw the tattooed soldiers around him falling down screaming and screaming. He couldn't help but feel blood welling up. He roared and jumped forward desperately, aiming his spear at Han Tiezhu.
Stab in the chest!
Han Tiezhu was already red-eyed at this time. Although he saw that the enemy was desperate, he still refused to dodge. He shouted loudly, pressed his left hand against the spear that was stabbing his chest, and swung the knife with his right hand to slash at the tattooed centurion.
He cut off the fierce enemy's head with one knife, leaving only a little flesh hanging on his neck, and blood spurted out. But at the same time, the tattooed centurion's spear also penetrated deeply into Han Tiezhu's neck.
abdomen.
Han Tiezhu groaned in pain, grabbed the spear with his left hand, and pulled it out with force. The spear broke away from his body, but his intestines were taken out!
Han Tiezhu squatted down, stuffed the intestines back into his abdomen, cut a piece of cloth from the clothes of the tattooed soldier who was beheaded but still struggling, crumpled it into a ball, held it with his left hand to block the abdominal wound, then reluctantly raised the knife and followed
With his comrades, he rushed towards the tattoo army again!...
Lu Jing commanded eleven archers, and after shooting for a while in the air at the tattoo army of the North Camp on the ground, he reluctantly left with three Qingyun Cranes, because he had to coordinate the battles in the other two places, leaving only
The four shooters on the two Qingyun cranes continued their air attacks on the tattoo troops here.
In the tattoo army camp to the east of Tongyan City, four black-armored commanders gathered together. They looked at the sky-high flames burning in the camp in the north of the city. They were first surprised by the sudden appearance and fierce attack of the enemy army, and then argued about what should be done.
How to rescue, marching route, etc. They not only hoped to reach the battlefield immediately and support the commander-in-chief's Beida Camp, but they were also worried about encountering an ambush on the road.
Finally, they decided to divide their troops into two groups, with one group of cavalry rushing to the north of the city along the shortest route, and the other group of cavalry taking a long route from the east to the north of the city. Two groups of infantry followed the cavalry route.
Lu Jing saw two tattooed cavalrymen setting off from the eastern camp in the sky. One went directly to the north and the other to the east. Apparently they wanted to take a detour to support the northern camp. The young general sneered and informed the enemy's marching route.
After catching Yan Ran and the new Yan army who were waiting below, he then went to chase or capture the few big-eyed gray harriers of the Tai army that had taken off in an emergency.
.
Eight thousand officers and soldiers of the New Yan Army under Yan Ran immediately rushed to the best ambush location. They first killed some sentries that Lu Jing had discovered and pointed out, and then used special digging tools to dig several holes in the ground.
Ten thousand pits three inches in diameter and one foot deep were placed with thousands of horse tripping ropes. Because it was at night, there was no need to cover these horse pitfalls and horse tripping ropes.
They calculated that time was almost up, so they lurked by the roadside, in the grass, or on a big tree.
Not long after, the ambushing Xinyan Army officers saw many small torches appearing on the southern horizon, and soon heard the sound of galloping horse hooves in the distance. The torches were getting closer and brighter, and the horses' hooves were heard.
The sound became louder and louder, and gradually the bodies of the horse and rider could be seen clearly.
The tattooed cavalry was already running very close. The Xinyan Army ambush soldiers on the ground and in the trees heard the deafening sound of horse hooves. At the same time, they could feel the ground and trees shaking, making their bodies feel slightly numb. The ambush soldiers looked at
By the time the first dozen cavalrymen had entered the digging area, they did not fall down, and they couldn't help but feel nervous.
But soon, one of the front hoofs of a tattooed war horse missed the mark and fell into the pit. The horse's front body immediately dropped, but it continued to rush forward quickly, immediately pulling the leg of the horse in the pit.
Break! The horse didn't even have time to scream, and it fell to the ground with its cavalry. The tattooed cavalry was caught off guard, and hit its head heavily on the ground. There was a "krack" sound, and its neck was immediately broken.
The unlucky cavalryman who was the first to roll rolled on the ground for more than ten steps before he stopped. Then he found that he had lost consciousness all over his body and could not move because he was completely paralyzed.
Immediately afterwards, the hooves of the tattooed horsemen stepped on the pits one after another, causing the horses and their men to fall to the ground. Some of the fallen cavalrymen were trampled by the galloping horses of their comrades behind them. The tattooed cavalrymen were frightened, hoping that there would be no more pits ahead, but they were shocked.
Disappointingly, the pits seemed endless, and those tattooed soldiers who were lucky enough to surpass their fallen comrades only ran a few more steps before being knocked to the ground by pitfalls or stumbling ropes.
Soon, three to four hundred tattooed cavalrymen fell to the ground, and more than half of them were seriously injured immediately!
A cavalry officer who fell to the ground shouted loudly: "Stop! Stop!" So more and more tattooed cavalrymen who were not lying on the ground reined in their horses and stopped galloping. They knew that they were ambushed.
Under the illumination of the torch, I finally saw clearly the countless pits on the ground and the many stumbling ropes.
The cavalry commander of the Tattoo Army hurriedly ordered a retreat, but it was too late. Countless sharp arrows were shot from the woods, grass, and big trees on both sides of the road. Because of the illumination of the torches in the hands of the Tattoo Army, most of the sharp arrows were fired.
They all hit the target accurately. Suddenly, the sound of the bowstring's "boom", the "whoosh" of the arrow flying, the "thud" of the arrow entering the body and the scream of the person hit by the arrow all rang together!
Some of the tattooed cavalrymen quickly turned their horses and fled, but they could not run a few steps before they were shot by the Xinyan army's sharp arrows, or fell into a trap. Other cavalrymen dismounted and hid behind their horses, or lay on the ground, but these
It became a static target for the archers ambushing on both sides. Some of the smarter tattooed soldiers threw away the torches in their hands in order to no longer point out the shooting targets for the Qi army.
Some tattoo officers shouted: "Throw the torches at the enemy!" All the tattoo cavalry who were still able to move immediately threw their torches towards the open space on both sides. The place where they were was immediately darkened, and the ambushers' bows and arrows could no longer fire.
It was difficult to aim. The torches thrown by the Tattoo Army illuminated some Xin Yan Army soldiers who were not well hidden or stood up.
The Xinyan Army was well prepared for the Tattoo Army's move. They soon fired a large number of rockets at the Tattoo Army. The firelight illuminated the Tattoo Army's figure, and the ambushers' sharp arrows became more accurate again...
Some more tattooed officers shouted: "Get off your horses and charge to both sides!" So all the tattooed soldiers who could move drew their swords and charged to both sides with shouts. Some tattooed soldiers with high martial arts skills charged at the ambushers on both sides of the road.
Shoots ice balls, fireballs, and various other internal powers.
Yan Ran, who was watching the battle on a big tree, saw this scene and ordered a charge to end the battle here as soon as possible. As soon as the ambushing Xin Yan army heard the horn of the charge, they immediately jumped out of their hiding place with swords in hand.
The spears shouted and rushed towards the tattoo army. The two sides immediately started a fierce hand-to-hand fight! The shouts of killing came one after another, and soldiers kept splattering blood and falling down screaming!
Although the overall martial arts of the New Yan Army was lower than that of the Tattoo Army, the four thousand New Yan Army faced off against less than a thousand dismounted Tattoo Army cavalry at this time, so the battle was still one-sided and the victory was quickly won. The soldiers of the New Yan Army
The next thing is to kill the wounded tattooed cavalry who fell to the ground, take off their armor, wear it on yourself, and then ride on the tattooed horse...
