Several heavy throwing spears were thrown at the queue. Xu Huang, with quick hands and quick eyes, swung his big ax and knocked them away. With a glance from the corner of his eye, he saw clearly the source of the throwing spears. They were several Jizhou people who had just avoided his path.
The soldier's face was pale by the fire, but his eyes were full of humiliation and unwillingness.
Xu Huang swung the ax in that direction without hesitation, and the archers from the Shesheng Battalion in the rear responded quickly, running quickly while collecting shots.
Dozens of feather arrows flew towards the same target at close range. The density was so high that it was impossible for the opponent to hide. Each of the group of warriors was hit by five or six arrows. They died immediately, but their faces were always facing the flying arrows.
direction without any fear.
They are not the first group to take the initiative to fight, nor will they be the last.
Whether an army is elite or not is not actually reflected in how many soldiers it can fight, but in its performance in the face of danger.
Faced with an incoming threat, the soldiers will just sneak away like cowards, kneel down and beg for mercy, or be hacked to death without any resistance. The elites will roar with anger and resist unyieldingly, even if they know they are
We are at the end of our rope and will face death at the next moment, but we still refuse to give up.
The land of Yanzhao has been a place where heroes have emerged since ancient times. On that day, Baima Yi suffered more than half of his casualties in the battle, but his fighting spirit was still undiminished. At this moment, at the critical moment of life and death, the Hebei man also burst out with powerful power.
The deeper they advanced into the enemy camp, the more intense the Jizhou Army's resistance became. More people were awakened by the screams of their companions, and more people were burned by the flames with blood boiling. Of course, there were not a few who turned around and ran away, but the cowards were cowardly.
Performance cannot shake the will of the elites.
Several tents were set on fire by their owners before Xu Huang approached. The soldiers drew bedding, boots and all the combustible objects they could catch, and threw them randomly on the path of the Qingzhou Army. This was not done to kill the opponent.
, but to disrupt the Qingzhou Army’s attack rhythm.
Just when Xu Huang and others had to stop to clear the roadblock, dozens of Jizhou veterans rushed up howling and rushed into their team from the side. The swordsmen on both sides of the team were caught off guard and were instantly in contact with the enemy.
Do a melee.
The spears and axes of the Jifeng camp were unstoppable when they destroyed the city and pulled out the stronghold, but in this small-scale fight, they were not very advantageous. The enemies were too few and too slippery. It was impossible to fight in formation for such a few people.
It's not a good deal. Formation and speed are natural enemies. To maintain formation, you have to give up speed. But the most important thing about a surprise attack is not the formation and killing enemies, but the speed of the attack.
But leaving it alone is not an option. The weapons of the Jiefeng camp are very powerful, but without the cover and support of their comrades, as long as the long weapon misses a hit, the enemy will get close to them. In a one-on-one fight, there will be something beyond the reach of the enemy.
Trouble.
Just when Xu Huang hesitated for a moment, casualties had already occurred. Several elite soldiers from Jizhou covered each other and broke through the blockade intertwined with swords and axes at the cost of half of their lives. After getting close, the swords flashed
It surged, and in the blink of an eye, two soldiers from the Forward Battalion fell down screaming.
"Bastards! Kill them!" Xu Huang was furious and ordered the soldiers on the flanks to come forward and attack with swords and axes! Seeing that they could not resist, the remaining Jizhou warriors stood still and protected the person in the middle.
The sword and ax slashed on the body, and blood spattered. The man being protected took advantage of this gap, suddenly rushed out, hugged an axe-hand, and then bit the opponent's neck!
Both sides fell to the ground at the same time and rolled around. The bitten swordsman was also very brave. While rolling, he hit the enemy with his head desperately. In an instant, the blood of the two people was mixed together, and they could no longer distinguish each other.
The comrades couldn't tell the difference for a moment, and the rescue was delayed by a beat.
Suddenly, the two of them stopped moving at the same time, hugging each other so seemingly intimately, eliminating all hatred and resentment in the world.
"Shrink and maintain the formation!" Xu Huang's voice came through the thick smoke, with nameless anger, and even a hint of helplessness and luck. The proportion of elite soldiers in the Jizhou army is still very high, if not for the help of the lord.
With various weakenings, even if we can win this battle, our own strength will be broken.
The swordsmen in the front row of the team turned around and slashed back, stabbing the desperate enemies who broke into the formation one after another. The dozens of warriors who broke in one after another were quickly cleared away, and the formation was restored to order under Xu Huang's control.
However, our own side also suffered more than ten casualties, and even the Shengsheng Battalion following behind was reduced by two.
A slight stagnation has allowed the soldiers of the Jizhou Army to see an opportunity. Under the leadership of several low-level officers, they gradually organized and blocked the path of the Qingzhou Army one after another. Rather than fighting, they were harassing. And harassing.
The methods are constantly being renovated. If one trick fails, it will soon be replaced by a new one.
More than a dozen Jizhou Army soldiers came from the flank, made slight contact, and immediately fled away. Before Xu Huang could adjust his formation, another group broke into his left wing regardless of life and death. When he used all his strength to repair the left wing,
, a new enemy appeared on the right wing.
Left front, left back, right front, right back, chasing away one wave after another, like a group of wasps that have been stabbed in the nest, rushing one after another, risking their lives. Although Xu Huang is brave, Huang Zhong is behind to support him.
, but after all, there are only two of them, and they are unable to do anything at the same time.
The tactics of the Rushing Battalion are more suitable for frontal combat, and are not very suitable for this harassment style of play.
Each wave of attacks by the opponent was not large in scale, with more than ten or twenty people, led by a low-level officer, or even a veteran who was not even an officer, fighting desperately. Although in every exchange ratio, the Qingzhou Army had the advantage.
, but the opponent fought with the mentality that trading ten for one would be enough, and the casualties of the Urgent Battalion continued to increase.
Xu Huang couldn't stand it anymore. He was determined to lead the team to chase and completely disperse the harassment. However, the enemy refused to fight with him, leaving his companions behind and quickly retreating into the darkness. This was an almost rogue tactic, with huge losses but
Practical and effective.
Casualties are secondary, but the key is that we can't afford to waste time. The most important thing about a surprise attack is its suddenness. If the enemy's command center cannot be destroyed quickly and victory is established, the advantage will become smaller and smaller as time goes by, and finally it will be completely
disappear.
"Brother Han Sheng, something is wrong!" He shouted anxiously to his colleagues.
"Something's not right." Huang Zhong was also slightly anxious.
Both of them are chief generals, and their purpose in rushing to the front line is to destroy the stubborn enemy with overwhelming force, quickly penetrate the enemy's camp, or capture the Chinese army.
In the previous battle, the two men easily defeated the resistance of Ma Yan and Zhang Wei, the main generals of the Dongying. Xu Huang killed Ma Yan and Huang Zhong shot Zhang Wei. In an instant, they eliminated the second general and more than a hundred of their relatives.
Wei. Ordinarily, even if the Jizhou Army still has brave soldiers, unorganized resistance cannot be this difficult.
Jizhou's warriors are not only unafraid of death, but also have a high fighting spirit, and even have a hint of a well-founded advance and retreat. How do they look like outlaws who are still fighting after being attacked?
"Someone is organizing!" the two generals shouted in unison, and then asked each other: "What should we do?"
"Woooo, wooooo, wooooo..." The horn came from behind, and the second general knew that this was his master urging him not to get into unnecessary entanglements, and to prioritize the rapid expansion of the victory.
"Spread in all directions!" Huang Zhong ordered helplessly. The archers in the team immediately shot arrows aimlessly in all directions. Most of them missed, and a small part hit the enemy. Sparse screams came from the darkness.
Sounds and hums. Obviously, this is not efficient enough.
"The entire army moves forward, regardless of the left or right!" Taking advantage of his opponent being forced into a panic by the feather arrows, Xu Huang issued the second order with difficulty. This was the request made to him by the horn that just came from behind.
, ordering him to move forward at all costs, with the goal of drilling through the enemy's camp, and to ignore the enemy's entanglement. This is also his consistent style.
However, this means that those who are entangled by the enemy will become victims. In order to win the entire battle, the vast majority of them will not be able to see the sun tomorrow.
Xu Huang was unwilling to give in. With such a huge advantage, he originally wanted to achieve a complete victory, with as few casualties as possible and as brilliant a result as possible. But now it seems that this has become an unachievable goal.
In a fierce battle, people don't have much time to think. After hearing the commander's order, the Qingzhou soldiers quickly rolled up into a dense formation, got rid of the enemy's entanglement, and rushed forward. The Jizhou elite who fought to the death also responded quickly.
, rushed up with a more fierce attitude, trying to defeat their flanks.
At this moment, Huang Zhong commanded the Shesheng Battalion to attack.
"Go forward quickly, I'm here!" He shouted loudly, sheathed his bow and took his sword, and led his brothers to fight with the enemy. His long sword was like a drill, splashing out pieces of flashing red light.
The Shesheng Battalion is good at bows and arrows, but it is not a purely long-range unit. Like its commander's style, they are very powerful in close combat.
The investment of the Shesheng Battalion allowed Xu Huang to quickly get out of the predicament. He continued to charge forward, leaving his flanks and rear completely to Huang Zhong.
Long knives and axes are very disadvantageous when used in fighting, but they are invincible when used to clear the way. Countless Jizhou elites bravely rushed forward, but they could only fall like moths to the flame. The Qingzhou Army's offensive became sharp again.
Behind him, the horn continued to sound, but the message it contained was different.
"Turn, turn, target northwest!"
The second battalion of Urgent and Shesheng was the main force in the night attack. According to the plan, they gave priority to crossing the river, and then dispatched a total of ten attack groups in sequence.
If everything goes well, the ten sequences will flow in one direction like a tide without interruption; if there are obstacles, the plan will be changed and advanced in different ways, not to completely solve the problem, but to maximize the chaos. Now, Lord
Already aware that the former army encountered a formidable opponent, he revised his plan.
Listening to the continuous orders from the rear team, Xu Huang suddenly felt a surge of anger in his heart. Even if he couldn't do his best, he would dig out the enemy who was hiding in the dark and dig out his heart and liver to pay homage to those who died in battle.
Heroic spirit!
Soon, he got his wish. Right in front of him, a burly general and more than 500 soldiers formed a circular formation, blocking his way. In the center of the circular formation, there were people wearing golden helmets and golden armor, standing solemnly on the golden Under the banner.
There is no doubt that the culprit is right in front of you! (To be continued. Please search Piao Tian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster!)
