#1022 enclave defense battle (29)
The counterattack like a furious wave quietly began.
Legion skills exploded in the crowd of Qiang people, sounding the clarion call for the Zhulu Army to launch a full-scale counterattack.
Before the exploding yellow light faded completely, the Bai soldiers and the Shen soldiers rushed out of the defense line without hesitation and launched a pursuit of the retreating Qiang people.
In fact, similar situations have occurred many times in the past few days. Although the Zhulu Army has always been on the defensive, they never miss out when they can take advantage. They take advantage of the fire ox tactics or the Qiang people's defense changes to catch up and beat up the drowned dogs, killing and injuring the enemy as much as possible.
The army has strength, risks are small, and benefits are high. Those who know how to fight will take advantage of it. Therefore, the Qiang people did not be vigilant about this pursuit at first. Anyway, they would retreat after chasing for a while, so it was no big deal.
However, this time the Zhulu Army had no intention of withdrawing its troops. After chasing through several passages, they were still not satisfied and continued to advance towards the original fence line of defense. People continued to rush out from deep within the stronghold. The Qiang people finally realized that something was wrong.
The Qiang warriors who were deployed close to the front line quickly received the order and rushed out to block the Zhulu Army's offensive. These Qiang people were a reserve team. They originally planned to launch the next wave of attacks. They had already made battle preparations and were far enough away from the front line.
The Qiang people have reason to believe that this reserve force is enough to make the Zhulu Army retreat in the face of difficulties, and at the very least, it can buy time for rear deployment.
The Zhulu Army suddenly launched a counterattack that was obviously unexpected by the Qiang people, but the Qiang leaders generally believed that this might be an opportunity. The continuous fierce fighting caused heavy losses to the Plateau Qiang people, but so far, the Plateau Qiang troops are still several times more powerful than the defenders.
The Qiang people have to admit that the Zhulu Army's combat effectiveness is far more powerful than theirs. However, the Qiang people also firmly believe that the Zhulu Army's ability to achieve such results is the result of making full use of its geographical advantages. Now the Zhulu Army has finally left the battlefield that they have worked so hard to fight against.
The Qiang faced off head-on, and the Plateau Qiang took this opportunity to kill a large number of defenders in the field.
If the blow given to the defenders is heavy enough, they may even have a chance to defeat the stronghold in one fell swoop!
To achieve tactical intentions, it is not enough to rely solely on the strength of the frontline reserve forces, and all efforts must be made.
Therefore, the order received by the Qiang people in the reserve team was to delay as much as possible to buy time for the dispatch of troops to the rear. The messenger also specifically warned: If necessary, they should not hesitate to fake defeat to lure the Zhulu army to continue to penetrate deeper. No matter what the price, they must not
The Qiang reserve team was aware of the heavy burden on their shoulders and expressed confidence that they would not scare away the Han army.
But they soon learned that such worries were unnecessary.
The two armies continued to approach, and before the Qiang people had time to pretend to be defeated, the deer-chasing army pounced on them.
Five waves of spears!
Wave after wave, the Qiang people's formation, which was not strict enough, was torn into holes.
The white soldiers charged forward, and the Shenbing battalion followed behind. In just two minutes, the Qiang reserve team, which had high hopes, was beaten dizzy and fell into a hard battle.
The White Soldiers and the Shenbing Battalion have been cooperating for many days, and their individual combat capabilities are far better than those of the Qiang people. The advantages of chaotic warfare are obvious. Their outstanding strength and good tactical awareness enable the soldiers to handle the melee with ease, and they actively move closer to their nearby comrades to form a team.
Fighting in small groups, cooperating with each other to rush and protect each other's backs, the advantages became more and more obvious. Soon, the small fighting groups gradually merged into a large fighting group, with more than ten circular formations crisscrossing the enemy formation. They seemed to be fighting each other, but in fact they were fighting each other.
Responding and cooperating, blocking, outflanking, supporting, or attacking by force, the chaos of the Qiang people continued to amplify.
The morale of the Qiang people was low, but they did not lack the determination to fight for the ethnic group. In addition, their first task was to buy time for themselves and gain a chance to annihilate the attacking Han army. Therefore, although they struggled hard, they still fought hard.
He did his best to resist the attack of the Zhulu Army without fear of death, and sent people to the rear for help.
The Qiang leaders obviously didn't expect that the reserve team would be beaten so badly. The battle had just started for a short while, and they were about to call for reinforcements? But it was obvious that the battle situation was precarious, and the five waves of Han spearmen were not in vain, and they were caught off guard.
It was completely understandable that he was beaten like this, so he quickly dispatched a thousand-man team to support him. Not long after, he called in a second thousand-man team to help, and finally stabilized his pace.
The Qiang people had reinforcements, and the Baihe people were not fighting alone.
The archers rushed out and suppressed the Qiang people's rear from a distance!
The flying stone turret standing at the rear was disassembled and packed, and was brought to the front by the Mohist mechanics. Amidst the intensive clicking sounds, the flying stone turret was being reassembled. Although the assembly took time, the noise was enough to make the Qiang people murmur.
, To be honest, such war equipment has never been seen by the Qiang people on the plateau. When the flying stone turret was being assembled, the machine masters were not idle either. Machine beasts appeared on the battlefield one after another and quickly bypassed the two armies.
In the battle area, cooperate with your own archers to block the Qiang reinforcements. The fire-breathing machine wolves, the machine tigers that can attack and bite, and the small machine dogs running all over the field will stir up the second wave of Qiang reinforcements.
To be fair, the combat effectiveness of these machine beasts is not incredible. After being surrounded, it is difficult to escape the fate of being destroyed by the enemy. In particular, the Qiang warriors have more heavy weapons, which will cause particularly great damage to the precisely assembled machine beasts. If the Qiang people
With careful handling, it is not difficult to annihilate these machine beasts one by one. However, this is the first time for the Qiang people to encounter machine beasts on the battlefield. The psychological impact on the Qiang people when they first encounter a machine beast that is clearly not a living thing is no less than the first time they encounter a melon.
The Qiang soldiers were sincerely chilled by the endless bizarre tactics of the Han army. Under such circumstances, it was obviously a bit difficult to expect the Qiang people to respond calmly. It was already quite difficult to persist in the battle without being defeated.
When the machine beast rushed towards the Qiang reinforcements, a large group of small melon soldiers in black helmets also rushed over.
"Eaaah!"
The little melon soldiers loudly announced their presence and then rolled into the battlefield.
That's right, just get out.
Curling up their bodies into a ball, the chubby watermelon warriors rolled into the battlefield, either hitting their bodies or secretly drawing their black knives, and went to greet the Qiang warriors from three directions. If the Qiang people were not careful, they would be plotted by the melon soldiers, although usually
Sometimes it's just a bump, and the occasional knife attack is not fatal, but the sinister fighting style of the melon soldiers really makes the Qiang people's eyelids jump wildly. No Qiang warrior wants to taste the feeling of having their bare feet stabbed with a mini knife. It's even worse.
What's more, the Qiang people have to face more than just melon soldiers on the battlefield. The Baihe people are all warriors who have experienced hundreds of battles. The slightest flaw may lead to disaster.
After the Xiaogua soldiers entered the battle, the Qiang casualties accelerated significantly!
"mean!"
"The Han people use evil magic!"
"Can't wait any longer!"
"Let Shibi fight back!"
The clan chiefs were furious and all looked at the Yellow Niu Qiang clan leader.
Sister Xiao is a military advisor in name only, but the current situation is completely beyond Sister Xiao's ability to control. The Qiang leaders do not bother to continue to make concessions with him, and directly ask the actual leader of the coalition forces to make a decision, completely ignoring Sister Xiao's existence. Scalper
The leader of the Qiang tribe was hesitant. The priest had just arrived here last night and was exhausted from all the travels. However, the situation in front of him did not allow him to hesitate any longer.
"Okay, please Shibi!"
Shibi is the priest of the Qiang people.
The priest is a clergyman with a respected status. The scriptures recited by the priest are all passed down from master to apprentice, and are passed down orally and heart-to-heart between father and son. The Qiang people believe that priests can access the gods and produce mysterious and incredible power. The prestige of priests
Even above the tribe leader.
Priests need to hone themselves and collect rare resources that can improve their cultivation. They generally do not stay in one place for a long time. In addition, the Qiang tribe has no fixed place and their destinations are often inconsistent. Priests usually need to travel far away from the tribe and their footprints are all over the plateau.
Every place, but the priest can enjoy the highest courtesy in any tribe. The priest will also provide help to the tribe when he is stationed in the tribe. The most common help is to cure diseases. Only a few powerful and powerful tribes can meet the needs of the priest and thus have
The resident priest of the tribe.
This also makes meeting a priest by chance like a stroke of luck. When you need a priest, you may not be able to find him.
Among the Plateau Qiang tribes participating in the enclave war, there were only three priests that could be contacted at this time. Two of them happened to be traveling to the tribe to live temporarily, and the only priest stationed in the tribe was from the Huangniu Qiang.
According to the usual practice of the Qiang people, clergy will not intervene in secular wars unless their opponents cross the red line first.
The attack on the plateau enclave was regarded by the Qiang as a battle of ethnic honor. This battle should be completed by warriors, and they did not originally intend to invite priests to take action. However, the inhuman performance of the Han spearmen could not be explained by common sense, and the leaders suspected that Zhulu
The army borrowed divine power and immediately summoned the priest. The initial idea was to ask the priest to sign a farewell. After the melon soldiers appeared, the Qiang people were convinced that the Zhulu Army used divine power to fight, so it was logical to ask the priest to counterattack, so they summoned the priest in advance.
The move of the Qiang Division has given the Plateau Qiang Allied Forces a powerful option in the current situation.
Three priests soon appeared in the camp. After seeing the melon soldiers, they agreed with the statement that "the Han people used divine power." Pei Gua's melon soldiers came from Taiping Road and fell within the scope of magic. This is an indisputable fact.
The priests began to chant scriptures and summon the Qiang gods.
Just as the leaders were nervously waiting for the gods to descend, the eldest priest suddenly raised his head.
He looked toward the direction of the enclave, with a look of surprise on his face.
A middle-aged man stood among the Han army archers, riding on horseback, drawing his bow and setting an arrow. The bow string was pulled to the extreme. The next moment, the arrow turned into a bright golden light and rushed straight into the sky, making a shrill scream in the sky.
, the golden light formed by the arrow seemed to have taken away the light of the sun. It became brighter and brighter in the sky, and the power and oppression of the arrow became stronger and stronger. At first, I did not feel that when it fell, the entire sky was lost.
Color, everyone only sees this arrow.
"not good!"
When the elderly priest discovered the target of his arrow, it was too late to prevent the tragedy.
"Run!" The priest only had time to warn the leader of the Huangniu Qiang clan.
However, this arrow is extremely powerful and extremely fast!
Before the leader of the Huangniu Qiang clan could even take a step forward, an arrow with the power of destruction fell to the ground like a meteor.
A meteor enters the body and is reduced to an arrow!
The huge momentum knocked the Huangniu Qiang leader to the ground and nailed the Huangniu Qiang leader to the ground. Blood splashed all over the faces of several nearby leaders. The Huangniu Qiang leader's body twitched unnaturally on the ground, his eyes full of fear, and his hands
He held the arrow and seemed to want to pull it out, but in the end nothing could be done.
This arrow killed the leader of the Plateau Qiang coalition army!
The place where the middle-aged man of the Han army fired his arrow was more than three hundred steps away from the position of the leader of the Huangniu Qiang clan!
Chapter completed!
