One after another intelligence reports came in like an assembly line. Qin Huaidao stood tall and proud, motionless, but his eyes gradually narrowed into a slit, and there were swords and swords beating inside, and frightening murderous intent burst out at any time.
All around, behind the undulating hillsides, the soldiers were lying motionless, staring straight ahead. The bows had been drawn, the arrows had been strung, and a strong fighting spirit soared into the sky, and even the birds were frightened.
If you dare to get close, you will be so frightened that the sun will hide in the thick clouds, and you will not dare to look directly.
The war is about to break out!
It was eerily quiet all around.
Suddenly, a burst of dense footsteps came, accompanied by the neighing of war horses, shaking the canyon.
Not long after, a large army appeared in everyone's sight, marching slowly along the canyon. Perhaps because of the long journey, everyone looked a little tired, but the marching speed was not slow.
Suddenly, a flying eagle screamed strangely, flew through the void, rushed towards the canyon, and landed on a person's arm.
Not long after, several loud roars were heard from the enemy troops, and the troops began to accelerate.
Qin Huaidao looked at this scene coldly, guessing that the defenders in Daman City found Fang Yiai and attacked fiercely. Fei Ying sent a letter asking for help, and a cold look appeared on the corner of his mouth. It is better to speed up. The faster you run, the more your physical strength will be consumed.
The bigger it is, the faster it will die if you fight it.
Not long after, scouts appeared on the tops of both sides of the canyon, running quickly along the ridge. There were quite a few of them.
The division in the front stared at the oncoming scouts without panicking. The division commander remembered Duoji's instructions and did not rush to take action. Once exposed in advance, the enemy could retreat calmly and make targeted counterattacks. The later they took action, the more likely they would rush into the canyon below.
The more enemies enter the encirclement, the harder it will be to escape, and the easier the battle will be.
Seeing the enemy scouts getting closer and closer, the division commander pressed his hands down to signal everyone to hide, but still did not take action.
The soldiers were a little surprised, but the military orders were overwhelming and no one dared to disobey them. Besides, there were only a few hundred people, so it was nothing to worry about. They all lowered their bodies and even shrank back a little.
The scouts are getting closer and closer, one hundred meters, fifty meters, thirty meters...
But the soldiers were not panicked at all and their mentality was very relaxed. A division with nearly 7,000 people would be afraid of a few hundred people?
When the enemy scouts were less than ten meters away, the division chief shouted: "Shoot--"
"Boohoo!"
One after another, the feathered arrows whizzed away, the distance was too close, and all the scouts were knocked down instantly. Many of them were killed before they had a chance to take action, but there were more scouts following behind.
In the rear, the enemy scouts saw that the friendly troops in front were killed, and quickly stopped to observe, while sounding gongs to warn.
The large marching troops stopped one after another and looked up, not sure why, but their sight was blocked by layers of hillsides, and they couldn't see the top of the mountain at all.
The battle suddenly paused.
The division commander on the front line of defense saw that the enemy scouts were too far away and could not hit the target with their bows and arrows. Hearing the sound of the gong, the division commander became a little irritated and simply ordered his guard battalion to charge forward.
The guards were all elites selected from a hundred, and they rushed forward one by one with bows and arrows, like wolves and tigers. But the enemy scouts were also elites, and they counterattacked on the spot not to be outdone, fighting and retreating at the same time.
The two sides fought tooth and nail as soon as they came up, shooting at each other. The guard camp relied on its large number of people and high morale to pursue them, and soon killed all the more than fifty scouts in the second wave. The third wave was a bit far away, so there was no point in chasing them.
He had no choice but to retreat.
The enemy did not launch an attack immediately, and the two sides fell into a stalemate again.
Qin Huaidao was not in a hurry, as his reinforcements had not arrived yet.
The sudden appearance of the battle made the enemy nervous. Suddenly, a war drum sounded. The generals of all the armies moved at the sound of the drum and quickly moved closer to Dahu. No one found an army staring at a hidden hillside.
In this scene, the grenades are arranged neatly and can be fired at any time.
Luo Wu was excited as he saw more and more generals gathered in Dahu. He wished he could fire immediately and kill the generals in one fell swoop. But then he thought about it, the enemy hadn't completely entered the ambush circle yet. If he took action, the enemy troops would probably retreat.
, if we don’t move forward, it will disrupt the battle plan again.
After weighing the situation, General Luo suppressed his fighting spirit and waited patiently.
Not long after, the enemy generals who were rushing forward received the order and jumped back on their horses to return to their respective positions.
Luo Wu waited patiently for a while and saw that the enemy army began to move. A large army began to climb the mountain along the gentle slope. The army in the canyon did not move. This was not a good sign.
"General, the enemy doesn't intend to go through the canyon. Should he go to the top of the mountain?" Wang Hu asked in surprise from beside him.
"If it were you, what would you do?" Luo Wu asked.
"Of course, we need to send troops to eliminate the threats on the top of the mountain before continuing the march. The canyon ahead is steep and not conducive to climbing. There are also ambushes. If you go up there, you will die."
Luo Wu said angrily: "Since I know, I still ask, and the enemy is not stupid. Of course he will send troops to eliminate the danger. However, it will be difficult to fight in this way. Have the people sent to investigate the situation behind enemy lines come back?"
"not yet."
Luo Wu nodded silently, but glanced towards the enemy's rear. Unfortunately, his sight was blocked by the winding hillside, and he could not see the depths of the canyon. It was not clear how many enemy soldiers had fallen to the ground.
Seeing that a large army was about to climb the top of the mountain, Luo Wu's sharp eyes fell on the vicinity of the big banner again. The large banner was where the enemy commander was, and the large banner was the Turkic commander's flag.
As far as the eye can see, there are many generals wearing armor, and I don't know who is who. Luo Wu lowered his voice and reminded: "Listen carefully, re-calculate the distance and angle to make sure everything is foolproof. The key to this battle is if anyone misses the target."
Well, don’t blame me for being rude."
Everyone nodded and raised their thumbs to measure the distance again to ensure the angle was accurate.
"kill--"
The enemy troops rushed to the top of the mountain and rushed up along the ridge. There were 3,000 people with fierce momentum. More people were still climbing up, densely packed and not slow. A large army was also sent up from the other side.
"Is the enemy determined to eliminate them before leaving?" Luo Wu became more firm in his judgment.
"Report——"
A guard rushed over, clasped his fists and said: "General, I have seen it clearly. There are not many enemies in the rear. The total number of troops is estimated to be around 60,000 to 70,000. Moreover, most of the troops in the rear are wounded. We must have 10,000 or 20,000 to make the enemy capable of fighting."
The number of soldiers is estimated to be 50,000 to 60,000."
"Less than 100,000? There are still many wounded soldiers in the rear?"
Luo Wu asked, and was overjoyed when he got the other party's affirmative answer. He said excitedly: "Haha, okay! It's good that there are wounded soldiers behind. Wounded soldiers have difficulty moving and will block the retreat. No wonder the enemy sent troops up the mountain to fight instead of retreating directly.
It turns out I was worried, so what are you waiting for? Are you ready?"
"The No. 1 gun is ready!"
"The second gun is ready!"
"Cannon No. 3 is ready!"
The brothers responded one after another, with fighting spirit like a rainbow.
Luo Wu pointed at the canyon below and said murderously: "Brothers, all the brothers' troops have been doing meritorious service all the way here. Our artillery camp has been hidden in the snow. Today is a great day to make a name for ourselves. If we show our prestige, everyone will have it."
, shoot me—"
"Boom!"
The shells roared out of the barrel one after another, roaring away with the soldiers' strong fighting spirit and expectation.
"Boohoo!"
The cannonball tore through the void and made a sharp sonic boom, like the god of death grinning.
All the enemy troops were attracted by this strange roar, which they had never heard before, and stopped one after another.
One by one, they looked up and looked around blankly, not knowing why.
