The night in Huma Village is extremely dark and cold, and the wind is strong at night, which is a good time for murder and arson.
Stepanov carefully selected one hundred and fifty powerful Cossacks, all of whom were tall, strong, broad-shouldered, and eager to fight.
Giant axes, cutting swords, scimitars, and various weapons commonly used by Cossacks glowed silver in the moonlight.
There are another thirty people standing in the second row holding maces. Maces are heavy weapons in this era. They are a bit like maces, but they use round hammer heads, and the spikes on them are thinner and thicker, which can
Puncture, killing opponents instantly, with both impact and penetration.
The twenty people at the front were carrying heavy flails. This weapon was no small thing. It was a big killer among cold weapons. A thick wooden pole was connected to a heavy iron chain, and one end of the iron chain was connected to
It has something similar to a meteor hammer, like a meteor hammer, which is much heavier than an ordinary meteor hammer. It is huge, thick and heavy. The average soldier cannot control it at all. You must be a strong man among strong men to make this thing.
Stepanov searched the entire army and found that there were only twenty people who could use heavy shackles. He placed these twenty people in the first row as the front line to open the way.
As a Cossack, he naturally knew the psychology of the Cossacks. He made a promise: If they can win this battle, each person will be rewarded with a hundred silver coins. For the sake of the silver coins, the Cossacks are very motivated to fight.
One hundred and fifty bandits, no, Cossacks, took advantage of the night to move quickly. They picked a soft persimmon and arrived in front of the Korean army's camp.
A long trench blocked the road. The Cossacks carried long wooden boards and placed them on the trench. One after another, strong men stepped on the wooden boards to cross the ditch.
There were also fences blocking the way, and the Cossack strongmen smashed them away with heavy flails.
"Bang~Bang~Bang~"
Several passages were smashed out in a moment.
"Who?"
A group of North Korean sentries came over after hearing the sound. What greeted them were huge meteor hammers. The heavy and heavy meteor hammers, with their heavy force and whistling sound, knocked over the Koreans one by one.
"Ula", Stepanov shouted "Ula", pulled out his machete, and slashed in all directions.
"Ula~Ula~Ula~"
The Cossacks became ferocious, like wolves and tigers, killing everyone they saw, using hammers, giant axes, swords, and scimitars. They were killing fields everywhere.
The fire started. The brave Cossacks had done this thing countless times and were extremely experienced. They specially inspected flammable places and threw torches. In a short time, the Korean camp was turned into a sea of flames.
The North Korean garrison envoy Li Shifang hurriedly rushed out of the camp, and a naked Rakshasa strongman swung a meteor hammer at him.
Li Shifang hurriedly waved his knife to block it. The sound of "dang" made the tiger's mouth tremble and the knife flew away.
This Rakshasa ghost is so powerful! He was shocked and ran back. Unfortunately, his legs ran fast, but they couldn't run faster than the meteor hammer. In the midst of lightning and flint, Li Shifang's back was smashed out with just one hammer.
He fell into a deep pit and fell to the ground, bleeding profusely from the corner of his mouth, dying.
"General, it's not good. The Rakshasa ghost attacked the camp and the camp fell. Please leave the camp quickly." They hurriedly woke up Zheng Taihe, the sleeping royal camp general.
In the past few days, the Korean army had worked hard to attack the city, and everyone was sleeping deeply. Zheng Taihe never expected that the Rakshasa people would attack the camp, so he hurried out and saw that the camp was in flames.
"Hurry, take the horse and follow me." Zheng Taihe was such a good man, he had the skills to save his life. He mounted the horse and ran quickly, without caring about his subordinates, and fled towards the Ming army camp.
??
"Commander, the Rakshasa ghosts are attacking the Chao army camp, please send troops to rescue them." In the Ming army camp, generals Gu Zhong, Chen Qice, Liu Yipeng, Wang Xing, Zhang Qixiang, Deng Yunlong, and Chen Jiusi all asked for battle.
Sun Guangwei smiled, "If those Rakshasa ghosts stayed in the city, I would have been unable to do anything to them for a while. Now that I have left the city to die, God is helping me!"
"Zhang Qixiang, Deng Yunlong, and you two led two thousand cavalry to block the way back to the city for the Rakshasa ghosts."
"Gu Zhong, Chen Qice, and you two will follow my commander and lead 3,000 troops to surround the Rakshasa ghost."
"Liu Yipeng, Wang Xing, and you will lead your headquarters to guard the camp."
"Chen Jiusi, take the arrows ordered by my commander and go to find the navy that is attacking Hou Hou. I order the navy to land immediately and attack the east city so that the Rakshasa people in the city cannot rush to the rescue outside the city."
As military orders were issued one after another, the Ming army opened a trap against the Rakshasa people.
"Commander, are you sending troops to rescue the Koreans?" Chen Qice, a kind man, asked hesitantly.
"Hahaha", Sun Guangwei laughed, "These Koreans are my handsome bait. Is there any reason to save the bait first before the fish takes the bait?"
??
The brutal massacre lasted until midnight.
The North Korean army collapsed completely. General Zheng Taihe fled without a trace. Dead bodies and deserters were everywhere.
Stepanov led 150 dead soldiers, and the more he killed, the more energetic he became. He killed and wounded more than 600 Korean soldiers, but suffered no more than 20 casualties himself. He also burned the Korean military camp to the ground.

Seeing that it was almost time, he ordered to retreat. Upon hearing the order, the Rakshasa soldiers took off and ran back to the city.
They were not far away, and they could run back quickly, but they couldn't. The Ming army's deputy general Zhang Qixiang and general Deng Yunlong led two thousand cavalry to block their way back to the city.
Stepanov gritted his teeth and shouted: "Cossacks, if you want to survive, kill with me."
"Ula~Ula~Ula~"
More than a hundred Cossacks shouted and charged. They knew that if they could not return to the city in time and waited for the main force of the Ming army to arrive, they would surely die.
"Bah~bah~bah~"
"Whoosh~whoosh~whoosh~"
What greeted them was a wave of bullets and a rain of arrows. In just one charge, more than thirty people fell.
"Quick, take a detour back to the city," Stepanov shouted.
It was too late, Sun Guangwei led Gu Zhong and Chen Qice arrived, with three thousand soldiers and horses, tightly surrounding the Rakshasa army.
Stepanov saw a small slope nearby and ordered his men to go up the slope to defend it. Deep in his heart, he still had a glimmer of luck, hoping that Duke Pushkin in Kamarsk Castle could send troops to rescue him.
??
Duke Pushkin in Kamarsk Castle heard the fierce shouts of killing outside the city, and saw that Stepanov had not returned for a long time, so he knew something was wrong.
He called for Beketov and said, "Beketov, you immediately take one hundred and fifty people and go out of the city to meet Stepanov."
"As you command, my Duke," Beketov accepted the order and resigned, preparing to leave the city to meet him.
"Boom~boom~boom~" Suddenly there were loud noises.
"What's going on?" Duke Pushkin shouted.
"The Ming Army, the navy of the Ming Army has landed and is attacking Dongcheng." A Cossack stumbled in.
Pushkin and Beketov hurriedly climbed up to the city and took a look, and saw that outside the east city, there were densely packed Ming troops, more than 2,000 of them. Ruan Jin ordered his men to unload thirty artillery pieces from the warships and set up cannons to bombard the city.
At this time, there were only 350 Rakshasa soldiers left in the city. In front of more than 2,000 Ming navy troops, the force was pitifully weak.
"Beketov, the Ming navy is too powerful. Don't go out to rescue the city, otherwise Kamarsk Fort will not be able to defend itself." Duke Pushkin changed the military order.
"But, Your Excellency, Chief Stepanov is still outside the castle," Beketov said urgently.
Prince Pushkin made the sign of the cross, "God bless Stepanov."
