Tang Erchuan was running nervously on the official road. The fields on both sides of the official road were full of camps of rogue bandits. The chaotic tents and shacks covered the fields. Countless bandits among them were also fleeing towards the town. The nearby officers were shouting.
, the shouts of the bandits around him were so loud that Tang Ershuan couldn't hear what the officer was shouting at all. He could only move forward with the other soldiers. Because the formation was too dense, he did not dare to draw a four-foot-long sword.
He only held a short-handled ax in his hand. In the field on the right was the largest bandit camp. The servants ran away like crazy, knocking down the tents and pot racks they encountered. The weak fell in the chaos and were immediately killed by countless people.
The foot stepped on and the blocked cavalryman waved his sword wildly.
Kill the servants in front of them. A group of servants lost their minds and ran toward the official road without knowing the direction. They were facing Tang Ershuan's position. Before he could reach the front of the queue, a soldier holding a palladium rushed from the side.
, the center forward pierced the chest of the leading servant and nailed him
On the ground, the other servants dispersed in a hurry. The soldier stepped on the servant's heart with his foot and tried to pull out the palladium, but he had already left Tang Ershuan's sight.
"What a sin!" Tang Ershuan shook his axe. The garrison was beaten to a pulp by Cao Cao's cavalry in Chuzhou. Tang Ershuan experienced that battle personally. It was said that Cao Cao was there this time. He originally thought that he would be forced by the cavalry.
He had to cross the Erlang River again. He was scouting this camp.
I have seen it many times during the inspection, but I didn’t expect to hit this place so easily when we really attacked. The Marine Division rushed along the official road and ran in front of the fleeing bandits, as if walking through a crazy crowd, and occasionally there were arrows
Flying into the formation, several marines were injured, but they continued to move forward, and no one stopped to react.
In the chaos, it was unclear which bandit shot it. Although he had gone through several battles, Tang Ershuan was still a little frightened. The officer's roar could hardly be heard among the crazy screams, but Tang Ershuan knew how to fight anyway. According to the final
An order conveyed by President Bai, land battle
The duty of the Division is to seize the town of Erlang and clear out all the bandits in the town, and then the cavalry will attack northward. The First Division and the Marine Division will cooperate as appropriate.
Mr. Bai's back was in front. He slowed down and shouted at the passing queues. Tang Ershuan finally heard clearly when he ran past him.
"Don't leave the road! Break through the town!"
Tang Ershuan couldn't quite understand the complicated order, but what President Bai shouted was very clear. Just follow the official road and attack all the way.
Tang Ershuan glanced forward in a hurry while running. The queue was about to reach the town. As long as he entered the town, Tang Ershuan was no longer afraid of the cavalry. The shaking field of vision in front of him was filled with the fluttering helmets of the marines. Everyone was panting and wearing leather armor.
It was sweltering and unbearable, and there were screams from the front. The vanguard was killing the bandits blocking the way, the infantry soldiers were intercepting and killing outside the official road, and Tang Ershuan passed by.
The roadside was full of corpses, and the dying people were writhing and screaming. There was chaos in the front row, and a series of soldiers fell forward. Tang Ershuan jumped out quickly and ran out of the official road. Tang Ershuan did not have time to see what was going on.
Whoever fell first, the marines behind also left the road and went around
After returning to the official road after the chaotic section, Tang Ershuan discovered that he was surrounded by people from the First Flag Team and that the formation had been disrupted. There were officers in front and behind urging him, and the queue could not stop for a moment. Tang Ershuan had no way to leave the team and could only follow the queue.
Continuing forward, there are more and more corpses on the road and around. They are all bandits caught up by the forwards. The undead ones are still on the ground.
Screaming and crawling, when Tang Ershuan took a peek, a house had appeared on the roadside. There was a shout in front of the road, and someone shouted "protect" in unison, which was the practice of the Marines before a battle. The surrounding soldiers echoed, and Tang Ershuan quickly followed.
There was a sound, and then I heard the captains of the first flag team shouting, "The formation is divided."
Spread out. Tang Ershuan did not belong to the first flag team. He wanted to stop and wait for his flag team at this time, but he was squeezed by the people around him and was pushed to the right into the ruins of a house. He entered a road through the dilapidated back wall.
In the alley, the procession became a column,
Tang Ershuan was caught in the middle. He didn't understand why he wanted to leave the avenue, but at this time he could only continue to follow the figure in front of him. Screams and screams kept coming from the front, and the team stepped on the corpses on the ground and turned two corners.
Another alleyway appeared, and the alleyway was crowded with people. On the left was a collapsed brick wall. A group of bandits were climbing over. They looked up and were stunned for a moment when they saw the marines. At this time, the marines were all wearing leather armor.
, only the arms were exposed, and before the gangsters could tell them apart, the leader of the group went up and chopped them, while the gangster in front of him turned around and tried to run away.
But the way was blocked by the people behind. The captain's belt knife brought a shower of blood, and the servant in front fell down. The others screamed and fled back, but the back of the alley was blocked by the crowd, and the people in front
Crowded together and unable to move forward or retreat, a pair of hands cooperated with the corps leader, along the
He chopped down one by one in the alleyway, almost stepping on the corpses. The entire alleyway was filled with desperate howls.
Seeing that the alleyway was impassable, the team leader pointed toward the brick wall, "Go this way!" Tang Ershuan couldn't even figure out the direction now. The sharp screams in the alleyway made him dizzy. He didn't know who pushed him.
, just past the brick wall, there is a courtyard inside, with left and right wing rooms. It was supposed to be a prosperous courtyard.
The house was in chaos at this time, with bedding, pots, bowls, and all kinds of clothing and household items scattered everywhere. It looked like it was full of bandits, and a few figures had just escaped from the courtyard gate.
"Kill all the bandits!"
The captain yelled, and the marines quickly chased him out of the courtyard. Outside was another courtyard, which was also in a mess. At the end was a two-story wooden building, and several bandits were escaping along the stairs to the second floor.
"Go upstairs!" The captain shouted to Tang Ershuan, and rushed into the first floor with other soldiers. Screams soon came from inside. Tang Ershuan, still holding the ax, stepped up the stairs with a thud, and reached the second floor.
Behind the stairs, he nervously searched for the bandits, not even paying attention to the unusual noises around him. When he chased him to the second room, Tang Ershuan saw a slave. He was shocked.
He hurriedly walked back from the window to the door. When he saw Tang Erchuan coming in, he immediately stepped back until his back touched the window edge.
This man was about thirty-four years old, with tears streaming down his wrinkled face. He rubbed his right hand vigorously on the window sill and made a desperate sound.
This man had no weapons. Tang Ershuan looked around with his axe, but he still hadn't decided whether to chop this man or not. At this time, he finally noticed the unusual noise coming from outside the window.
Tang Ershuan subconsciously took a step forward. The servant screamed, turned over and jumped from the window edge.
"You..." Tang Ershuan raised his hand, saw him disappearing out of the window, and put it down again. The sound outside the window became more intense. Tang Ershuan carefully approached the window and looked down at the street below. In the dilapidated town of Erlang Town,
The gangsters fighting for the road crowded together, and the vehicle frames abandoned in the street blocked the traffic. The crowd crowded in the gaps between the vehicle frames and the houses, blocking the street completely and making it impossible to move. The strong slave climbed among the crowd.
On the top of the mountain, a mountain of people had formed. The slaves who had fled from behind were still pouring into the street, desperately climbing up the mountain of people. From time to time, parts of the mountain of people collapsed, and countless people screamed and fell down.
, became part of the base of the human mountain, and became a stepping stone for the newcomers. Tang Erchuan was stunned in front of the window. He had never imagined that people would pile up into a mountain. The famous bandit who jumped off just now was almost crushed by people.
When we got down there, there was a horse's head next to him. The horse was pressed down by the crowd, and only the horse's head was still there.
Able to move.
Looking down from the second floor, you can't see the road at all, only countless bodies, hands and feet rolling and squirming, and the screams are deafening.
Tang Ershuan raised his short-handled axe, stared blankly at the hellish scene in front of him and murmured, "Cut...it's evil."
…
Outside Erlang Town, the queue of the First Division had just arrived. Yao Dongshan gasped and raised his telescope to look east. Smoke billowed in the telescope's field of vision, and fires were burning everywhere in the rogue camp and spreading everywhere.
At present, there are still some iron armors in the First Division. The Marine Warfare Division is basically equipped with leather armor and its marching speed is faster than that of the First Division. Therefore, at this time, the Marine Warfare Division has fully committed to Erlang Town and the First Division has just arrived. From the Marine Warfare Division just now
Judging from the message sent, the resistance of the rogue bandits is very weak, but it is not easy to completely control Erlang Town. The number of rogue bandits is extremely large, and the time when the garrison battalion attacks coincides with the rogue bandits marching, and a large number of vehicle frames and
Bodies were left on the road, and it would take a long time to clear the road. The Marine Division has not yet passed that critical intersection.
According to the original plan, after the infantry captured Erlang Town, the cavalry would attack the pass northward. If the attack went well, the Marine Division would be left to guard Erlang Town, while the First Division would attack Moyanpu eastward to minimize the space for the rogue bandits to move.
The narrower the battlefield, the smaller the advantage of the rogues' cavalry. Especially between Moyanpu and Fengjiadian, there is the Chema River with abundant water, surrounded by rice fields and fish ponds. On many terrains, the cavalry is even at a disadvantage. Yao Dongshan
He had no intention of putting out the fire, but the camp and the smoke blocked his sight. Pang Yu designated him as the forward commander. All he thought about was how to deal with the cavalry and how to attack Erlang Town. At this time, being able to attack Erlang Town was considered a success.
It was a success, but now the army has been unable to pass through Erlang Town, and there is a lack of information about the pass and Moyanpu. It is a waste of time to figure out how to fight next. "Where are the sentries of the Marine Warfare Department? Why don't they sent out sentries to the east and report back?"
Yao Dongshan was dissatisfied and turned his telescope to Erlang Town. There was also a queue of the Marine War Department on the official road. It was estimated that one bureau had not yet entered the town, but the general flag was no longer in the official road.
On the road, you should have entered the town.
There was the sound of horse hooves behind him. When Yao Dongshan looked back, Chen Rulie had already come to him and dismounted. There were dozens of cavalrymen behind him. The horses were sweaty, and it was obvious that they had rushed here desperately. The cavalry department received strict orders from Pang Yu.
Chen Rulie could only mobilize the sixty or seventy cavalrymen with the best horse power, and personally led them to gallop to catch up with the forwards. On the way, the sixty or seventy cavalrymen were distinguished again, and about twenty of them were the most outstanding.
After catching up with the Marine Division, they participated in the attack and played an important role on the flank. The part led by Chen Rulie was slightly worse, but still surpassed most of the horses of the Cavalry Division. Seeing that they arrived at Erlang Town smoothly, Chen Rulie breathed a sigh of relief.
Yao Dongshan briefly told him the situation, then looked at Chen Rulie and said, "Pang Pang asked the cavalry to attack the pass, but the blacksmith said that it would not be possible for a while.
It's all a carriage, so it's not that convenient to go to the pass." Chen Rulie nodded, and Yao Dongshan pointed to the east, "The west, north, and east sides are full of bandits. The west side can guard the bridge, but the north side is blocked by the town.
Even the infantry can't get through, and your cavalry is here but it's delayed here, so you go east ahead of them. Those thieves lose their courage, chase after them and knock down the Moyan Shop first."
