Chapter 146: Three Wars (1)
The sunset is on the horizon to the right, and the sun is covered with blood and is spreading on the earth. Thousands of troops stand on the back of this savage mountain peak, facing south.
Because the savages opened up all the farmlands in this direction, there were no crops in winter, and a snowy open space is the best for setting up camp and the most suitable for the enemy formation to unfold.
The mountains and fields were covered with ten thousand soldiers, and the front, left and right wings were all enemies. The number of city-state troops that were put into the battlefield was three times higher, and there were still three thousand people in the central army as reserves.
Looking down from the guardhouse, we both sides of the enemy and us step by step, each square formation has a team of hundreds of people, like pieces of tofu, squeezed tightly, and from a high place, it looks only a small piece.
The difference is that Ye Qingfang is mainly made of iron armor, while the city-state army mainly consists of leather armor made of fur. There is also the flag Han army is a red-bottomed green dragon flag, and the city-state is a red flag depicting three white feathers.
"Shoot" a archer of ten people, took out a loud arrow, bent his bow and shot it, making a loud roar in the air. This is not killing the enemy, it is a provocation
Faced with the provocation of the long-range shooting of the Han army, the city lord in the city-state army looked at it. The man was strong, his tiger's eyes flashed, and there was a long scar on his face. He sneered and carefully observed the alien army.
The intensive defense formation, the regular force is only three or four thousand, only one quarter of the army. Even if the scattered auxiliary soldiers are added, the total force is only five thousand, less than half of the army.
"More than twice, you can defeat it." General Yuan Yan excitedly said that this was the past war experience with the alien city-confederacy alliance. The enemy's divine guards always have much more than the original divine guards. The warriors are equipped with good equipment, but their cultivation is all the second and third levels of divine power, so they can be crushed by quantity.
Several priestesses of the sixth level of divine power—or equivalent to the Yin God—he was a little hesitant. They were women, and their personalities were conservative, so they couldn't help asking: "Why not wait for the two teams in other cities behind?"
"The road is too far, and the most people who can come can only be the elite of the God Guards, and the increase in military strength will not increase." A nobleman said. Although he was not a powerful warrior of the gods, a priestess followed him and was his daughter, which meant their family's right to speak.
This sentence was approved by many nobles, and they all nodded: "Yes... we can increase our troops, and the enemy can increase our troops. It is difficult to seize the opportunity like today..."
"The remnants of the Luoman tribe cannot give up. Only six or seven hundred people have been investigated, and there are more than one thousand left. Many young women... happen to be slaves."
"Any enemy who set foot on our Pengyu tribe's territory has never left alive."
Listening to the nobles' discussions and calls for war, the priestess communicated with each other, and someone proposed: "After the oracle let us come, we will predict our victory...
"Yes, yes... let's go, lord."
Because the last time Aoki City State was defeated and lost, the city lord was much more cautious in using troops this time, but Aoki City State was an old opponent, and with the same force as one-to-one, he barely resisted it.
The failure was just that the entire coalition front was defeated and the manpower was irreversible...
It’s not that Peng Yu tribe is too weak, but that some city-states are too incompetent
Looking back on the past more than twice as much as the alliance with the alien city-confederacy, the city lord was sure that the blood of war was inspiring, and he felt that the God of Waste must have protected the war in the dark, and waved his hand to order: "Go to the battle."
"Kill-kill--" all the warriors shouted.
"Blessing God's Grace" the priestess prayed, as if the god of desolation could not wait. As soon as there was a prayer, he immediately responded, and the blood-red light suddenly sprinkled on the soldiers.
All the warriors immediately had their eyes red, and their murderous aura rushed out, with the urge to eat blood.
"Running" The first batch of warriors rushed up. This team mainly carried a rectangular shield, and Chen Hou was heavy and pressed up like a wall.
"It's already a little bit of a pattern." Ye Qing looked down and said coldly, his cheek muscles twitched twice, and murderous aura flashed in his eyes.
There are many people in each square formation of the alien race, holding up round shields to resist arrows, looking like a turtle shell, running very fast, and the impact of a meteorite.
The Han army mainly uses iron armor and set up a camp with a backer. The terrain is still slightly higher, which can not only weaken the damage of arrows and the enemy's charge, but also helps the defense to turn to counterattack - the premise is that it can be defended.
In order to make up for the disadvantage of military strength, Gao Shun put a lot of effort into resting and expanding the village wall, and circled into a large arc to block the path to the savage cave.
Ten square formations of spearmen were deployed behind the front wall, thousands of people, and five square formations of spearmen were deployed on both sides, each with five hundred people on each side.
One thousand five hundred people are elite archers, and they are responsible for long-range suppression with fire crossbows.
Ji Qing and five real people are responsible for mid-range suppression.
The Fire Thunder Team may have a long-range heavy firepower against the enemy - now it is ready.
Lu Xun's cavalrymen were thirty, and the Southern Army had 100 cavalrymen who were specifically protecting Qianqian. Their actual ownership was Qianqian, and they did not use it to deal with the savages. Now they joined the reserve team.
The hunter team is the auxiliary soldiers, following the cavalry ready to enter the gap at any time, or pursuing victory.
Finally, Ye Qing, Qianqian, Li Niang and Bingmei have three real-life killer weapons, acting according to the opportunity...
The entire set of plans is very familiar, and the rich battlefield experience allows the Han army to know their positions.
"Has the things been buried?" Ye Qing asked Lu Xun.
Lu Xun nodded and said, "I am buried in the front line. There is a wall blocking my view. The enemy will definitely not expect that we will be in this position..."
"Where are the second line of preparation?"
Qianqian listened with a smile, and whispered to Cai Wenji from the Savage Cave, asking her to go back to guard the prisoners, retract her gaze and look at the village wall. The so-called first line and the second line are actually divided into two layers inside and outside.
Time is rushed and the inner village wall is not complete. We must rely on the army to focus on the arrangement of defense.
At this time, in front of the outer circle, there was a row of low defensive village walls standing in front of the sprey formation, two miles long from east to west. This circle of village walls half-encircled structure protects the Wild Man Mountain and is the main defense.
The dense log fence was inserted directly into the soil. Because it was short, it was only as high as the chest. A ditch was dug in front of it, which was very shallow and narrow, and could be crossed with just one jump. This was for the enemy. The dense forest of guns was held on the wall and waiting to poke down.
After crossing the ditch, there was no place to stand in the corner, so I could only fall down.
The bottom of the pit made the village wall look much higher, probably because the above head was a little higher, at least the people who fell into the ditch could not reach it, and the vision was extremely obstructed, making it difficult to effectively attack the Han army. The Han army's spearmen were descending high behind the village wall, poking and then accurate.
The city-state army is not stupid, and it is not a savage. They only know that they are brave enough to rush to death. As soon as their front team rushed to the ditch, they slowed down not far away. It seemed that the tide slowed down a little on the beach.
After fifty steps, he stopped and the archer shot at him.
At the same time, when the shield in front was raised, many auxiliary soldiers carrying earth bags were drilled out, and they threw the earth bags into the ditch with arrows. Seeing this, Ye Qing ordered again: "Lu Xun, you are in command here."
"Yes, I will accept the order." Lu Xun flashed a smile and responded, and then issued an order.
A hoarse command came from the "Shoot", followed by a sharp whistle, and a rain of arrows plunged into the crowd below, and a bloody flower was instantly blooming.
Ye Qing looked at it. Because he had no armor on his body, he could not withstand the arrows and could not stop after being hit by the arrows, and he crashed into the ditch with his people and bags.
Ye Qing noticed that the armorless soldiers had runes on their cheeks, and they looked unafraid of death, so he frowned: "Dead soldiers? Criminal prisoners?"
"It's a slave assistant."
Li Niang explained: "There are 100 people in each thousand-person team. The Runes of the Waste God control their minds. They usually focus on dirty and tiring work, and they will die when they go to the battlefield."
"It feels like a terracotta warrior in the Middle Earth, but in fact it's not enough, and there are still feelings and fears. If you kill too much, you will collapse and escape."
As she spoke, several more groups of arrows fell and rushed towards these people, crying, tragic roars, and sighs of crossbow arrows.
In this terrible situation, the auxiliary soldiers could not suppress their fear, threw down the earth bag, and cried and wanted to escape.
The supervision team behind "kill" instantly formed a three-row formation, slashing towards the auxiliary soldiers, and suddenly slashed over, forcing the auxiliary soldiers to continue to go back to fill the pit.
The auxiliary soldiers had to continue braved the rain of arrows, allowing the Han army to shoot and kill without mercy. Many slaves were directly caught in the arrow and fell into the ditch. The bodies, and even the injured living people were buried in the ditch together with the soil.
If the Han military magicians choose to cast spells directly to change the terrain, take a break and restore their magic power before fighting, but the priest's magical skills are given to killing, and what they need is to be simple and crude.
This wilderness can provide abundant food in spring, summer and autumn. The aliens and savages reproduce very quickly, which may be worse than rabbit nests, but it can grow a nest in thirteen or fourteen years.
There is never a shortage of slaves. The city-constitutional alliance has fought against the East China Youth League for a hundred years and has generally retreated step by step, but it has always had several times the advantage in human resources.
Simply put, there is a lot of cannon fodder, and the death will come.
Ye Qing went to the Han Dynasty to enjoy the population dividend, and the population resources on the ground have never been so generous. Seeing a group of slaves driven up to die, I couldn't help but envy: "I'm so rich and willful."
"...I can't kill them all. Uncle Shi was worried before. Because of our population disadvantage, we can win but not lose. An unexpected defeat can ruin the results of a ten-year victory. The enemy loses every year and retreats, but they can fight again every year... Thanks to the scattered internal straits within the city-confederate alliance, if a strong force rises..."
Li Niang bit her lip and felt that the battlefield said that this was a bit disappointed, so she would not say it. Ye Qing smiled and was not worried. If this was the case, it would be the great expedition of the Middle Earth Dynasty, killing all these heresy.
This is the will of the entire world order.
If it is the world of the desolate gods, even if they are competing for each other, but relatively mature, there should be the so-called pantheon for communication.
The Universal Sect that wants to eat alone or a completely different heresy, from the perspective of reality, is difficult to endure the encirclement.
In just a short moment, the slave auxiliary soldiers filled the ravines at the cost of their lives, and even filled in sloping soil slopes in front of the walls of the fourth and fifth sections of villages. The Han army's arrow rain was fierce and accurate, and a total of 1,200 slaves only survived.
The city-state regular army suffered very little losses. At this time, a shout started the charge in these last fifty steps.
"kill--"
"shoot"
"Running—"
"Long spear array, stab"
Both sides were screaming, the snow-white clearing between the two armies was constantly shortening, and finally a "boom" hit.
Four or five torrents of gray rushed up the earth slope, hung into meat skewers in the Han army's gun forest, and the magical technique forced the walls, swords, shields, guns, and arrows all squeezed towards the enemy in a dense manner...
In the sunset, these weapons reflected cold light and splashed blood.
