While the attention of the female worker and Qin Fei were attracted by the bandits charging into the formation, Master Chen sent someone to bring the catapult over and destroyed the female worker's heavy crossbow and catapult positions in one fell swoop.
Although once a face-to-face hand-to-hand combat begins, heavy crossbows and catapults can no longer attack, they can still block the mountain road behind the bandits, so that the bandits who have rushed over cannot return, and the bandits behind them cannot reinforce.
After destroying the heavy crossbows and catapults, the bandits no longer had this worry, and swarmed up and launched a mad attack on the female worker camp.
Qin Fei couldn't care less about feeling sorry for the catapult, and immediately ordered the bodyguards to use shields and pot lids to hold back the bandits, and then organized the female workers to use long bamboos to fight back.
I have to say that the Macedonian Phalanx is very suitable for Sheepfold Ridge.
For a moment, the female workers and bodyguards blocked the bandits.
Master Chen received the report and immediately sent bandits to smash a round of oil jars into the battle formation.
Shields and pot lids can block the bandits' swords, but they can't block the all-pervasive fire.
Qin Fei brought few bodyguards to begin with, but now most of them were burned to death.
Those who survived were severely burned and lost their ability to fight.
There is no doubt about the loyalty of the female workers from Iron Can Mountain to Jin Feng, but after all, they have not received professional training, and there is no escort holding a shield to block the front, so the formation was suddenly disrupted by bandits!
Without heavy crossbows, catapults, or escort shields, the female workers could only engage in face-to-face hand-to-hand combat with the bandits.
The bamboo pole in his hand was too long, so it was very convenient for stabbing, but it was somewhat difficult to use in hand-to-hand combat, and the female worker was completely at a disadvantage.
Casualties also increased rapidly!
Just when Qin Fei and Zuo Feifei were anxious and angry, they suddenly heard the sound of horse hooves coming from behind.
Qin Fei's face showed both expectation and vigilance.
The sound of horse hooves came from Xihewan, and it was probably reinforcements.
Judging from the intensity of the sound of horse hooves, there were quite a few reinforcements.
If this is the case, female workers still have a glimmer of hope.
But if the enemy comes, the female union, which is already at a disadvantage, will be attacked from both sides, and they will all be doomed.
In this contradictory mentality, Qin Fei saw war horses breaking through the white mist and appearing in his field of vision.
Although the fog was too thick and he could not see the face of the visitor clearly, Qin Fei saw the black flag of the Zhenyuan Escort Bureau!
Qin Fei jumped off the boulder excitedly and ran towards the horse.
"Old Qin, what's going on!"
Liu Tiele stopped his horse and asked.
The fog was so thick that he couldn't see clearly what was going on on the battlefield.
Qin Fei didn't bother to greet Liu Tie and asked anxiously: "Tiezi, how many people did you bring?"
"Eighty people!"
"Are they all cavalry?"
"Yes, and they all have armor!"
"If I remove the female workers, can 80 of you withstand the bandits?"
"The mountain road is so wide, of course it can withstand it!"
Liu Tie nodded confidently, and then asked again: "How is the situation?"
"It's very bad!" Qin Fei shook his head: "If you don't come here, I'm afraid all the female workers will be dead in less than half an hour!"
"Then take them down quickly!" Liu Tie became anxious upon hearing this.
"good!"
When Qin Fei heard this, he turned around and ran away.
While running, he shouted: "Director Zuo, Ming Jin withdraws his troops! Ming Jin withdraws his troops!"
Dang! Dang! Dang!...
The rapid sound of gongs spread throughout Yangzhou Ridge.
The female workers were beaten so hard that they had no power to fight back. When they heard the sound of the gong, they immediately started to retreat.
Master Chen was on the other side of the battlefield and did not hear the sound of horse hooves. His target was not these female workers, but Xihewan.
In addition, the fog was too thick. Master Chen was afraid of being deceived, so he did not let the bandits chase the female workers. Instead, he ordered the bandits to gather together and prepare to pass through Yangquan Ridge quickly and continue on their way.
Heavy fog doesn't happen every day. Master Chen must take advantage of the thick fog tonight to break through Xihewan!
It was precisely because of Master Chen's decision that the female workers were able to retreat smoothly.
The bandits occupied the position of the female workers and cheered while raising their own weapons.
But before they could finish cheering, they heard footsteps.
Then I saw a team walking in neat steps out of the thick fog.
The black armor wrapped everyone in the team tightly, leaving only a pair of eyes exposed.
Although the mountain road is not narrow, it is not wide either. The horses cannot move at all, and the cavalry's advantage cannot be used. Instead, the horses are easily hacked by bandits.
So Liu Tie decided to fight hand-to-hand combat with the bandits on the road!
They all have black armor and are not even afraid of Danzhu's elite infantry. How can they be afraid of a group of bandits?
The black armor was all new, glowing with a faint cold light, and as the team advanced, it made a clear sound of metal friction.
Neat footsteps and queues, black armor with a cold light, cold eyes...
The formation of bodyguards showed a strong momentum. Although they had not yet fought, they completely crushed the bandits in terms of momentum!
The bandit leader who led the team swallowed a mouthful of saliva and thought about retreating.
But Master Chen only gave them a deposit. If he ran away at this time, the remaining money would be lost.
They came all the way from other places, and so many people died. It would be a big loss if they went back like this, and the boss would never let him go!
The escort phalanx has been advancing, and it is too late to ask for instructions at this time.
Thinking of this, the bandit leader gritted his teeth, raised his knife and roared: "Brothers, kill these pretenders!"
After saying that, he rushed forward with the knife in hand.
The other bandits were a little scared at first, but when they saw the leader taking the initiative to charge, they had no choice but to follow.
The bandits were already red-eyed from beating up the female workers, and once they started to charge, they would easily get on top. No one noticed that the leader was running slower and slower, and had already fallen behind.
"Draw out the knife!"
Liu Tie shouted, and the bodyguards drew out their black knives neatly!
The next moment, the bandits who were running towards him collided with the phalanx of bodyguards.
Although this group of bandits are brave bandits recruited by Master Chen, bandits are bandits after all. Bullying and bullying female workers is okay, but it is completely unacceptable when they meet the elite veterans led by Liu Tie!
The veterans used their swords sharply and ruthlessly!
Almost every knife was aimed at the bandits' fatal parts!
There are ruthless people among the bandits, but the veterans' black armor is too hard, and they can't cut or pierce it!
So the battle almost became one-sided, and the bandits couldn't stop the escort at all!
Because of the heavy fog, the bandits behind didn't know what was happening. They thought the female worker was coming again, so they rushed forward one by one.
The boss said that after the war, the money will be calculated according to the ears. Whoever cuts off more ears will get more rewards.
The fog was so thick that by the time they could see the escort formation, it was already too late to regret it.
The bandits behind kept pressing forward. They couldn't retreat even if they wanted to, so they could only be pushed forward.
After fighting for more than ten minutes, Master Chen realized that a black-armored bodyguard appeared on the battlefield.
He was sent from Xichuan by the powerful, and he knew very well how terrifying the black-armored bodyguards were!
That was an elite division that Danzhu could not stop even if he sent ten times the elite infantry!
On the way from Xichuan, Master Chen had been thinking about what to do if he encountered a black-armored escort.
After thinking about it all the way, he actually came up with a solution.
"Quick, send someone to send the oil jar over. The black armor is invulnerable, so you can only attack with fire!"
