Chapter 78 Kill him! (3)

The dust at the mouth of the valley was filled with dust. The archers in the valley had their bows fully drawn, and the arrow points pointed upwards. When the figures in the dust were slightly clear, they lowered their flags and fired thousands of arrows. The arrows were like a swarm of locusts taking off, covering the valley in an instant.

Above, clouds block out the sun.

Yesterday, in order to give his cavalry a fighting distance, Daxuan soldiers concentrated in the rear of the valley. However, the cavalry was restricted by the narrow road behind the valley.

This is an oval-shaped valley, long from north to south and short from east to west, with a maximum capacity of less than 10,000 people. It was the place where the Dong Lun Kingdom previously set up border sentries. Behind the valley is a long and narrow winding mountain road, extending eastward into the Dong Lun Kingdom.

Today's formation in Daxuan is different from yesterday. In the valley, a thousand shield soldiers are waiting in formation, behind them are three thousand spearmen, and behind them are a thousand archers. These five thousand soldiers occupy most of the area in the valley.

Hong Liang dispersed 30,000 soldiers along both sides of the narrow road, lurked in the woods, and surrounded the remaining less than 80,000 soldiers along the mountain range, forming a large urn. He tried his best to ensure that no matter which direction Voss's soldiers moved towards,

If you attack in any direction, drive them back into the circle.

Arrows fell, and the Voss cavalry who first rushed into the valley were hit by hundreds of arrows, but not many fell off their horses. The Voss cavalry have all been trained in riding and archery since childhood, and dodging arrows is also their basic skill. They have

With the arrow inserted, he rushed directly towards the shield soldier.

The short distance in the valley prevented their horses from forming a strong impact. Coupled with the arrows, the shield soldiers in the front row withstood the first wave of horse hooves. However, the Vos soldiers who fell from their horses turned over and stood up.

The sword in his hand cut off the heads of the shield soldiers from behind with a single swing.

At this time, the second wave of cavalry also rushed in, and the hard hoofs of the horses rushed from between the shields, regardless of whether they were crushing the enemy or one of their own. The spears behind the shield soldiers penetrated deeply into the horse's body, and the war horse neighed and raised its front hooves.

, the spears of the Xuanguo infantry pierced the horse's belly deeply, and before falling, the knight on the horse used the spear in his hand as a prop, jumped into the infantry square, drew out the ring-shou sword and killed with great force.

Shields were trampled to pieces, and a famous shield soldier was decapitated. Many of these young warriors had no time to let out their final wails. Hong Liang's only one thousand shield soldiers were slaughtered in this way.

The two groups of cavalry seriously damaged the formation. Countless Voss soldiers had been inserted into the infantry square, and a melee broke out. The sword was inserted into the abdomen of the warrior, and then pulled horizontally, the intestines of the Daxuan soldiers flowed all over the floor.

The warrior who fell to the ground saw his intestines being trampled under the feet of the Voss people. He still gave his last breath, drew the knife upward, and let the tip of the knife pierce another enemy. Killing one earns one, killing two earns.

A pair. This is the will of the Daxuan warrior.

The space in the valley made the cavalry lose their advantage, but the Voss people were not only able to fight on horseback. They were still fierce when dismounted. A large number of Voss people rushed into the valley. Their tall and strong bodies and sharp ring-headed knives made them unstoppable.

.

The infantry's spears soon had no room to use due to the crowded battle. Daxuan soldiers drew their knives and cooperated with each other in formations of five and three to fight with the Voss people.

The loud drum beat became faster and faster, and the fighting between the two warring parties became more and more intense. The strength advantage of the Voss people was very obvious. One of the Voss people had just slashed a big propaganda soldier with a knife, and the other two

Da Xuan Bing's sword was right in front of him.

The Vos man grabbed the Daxuan soldier who had just chopped him and blocked the other two's knives with one hand. Before they had time to pull it out, he stabbed one of them in the stomach with the knife!

Killing one person in the blink of an eye, the body in his left hand was not put down, but used as a shield to withstand the second person's attack. He first killed the third person who came to the side to finish the attack, and then returned to continue fighting the second person.

.

He can hold up a soldier wearing armor with one hand and still fight with ease, which shows the physical strength of the Voss people.

The Voss people became more and more courageous as they fought, and kept charging forward. Puff, puff, knives penetrated their flesh. Soon, the phalanx of Daxuan soldiers was compressed smaller and smaller.

Virat, Sauter, and Tuhuert, the three tribal leaders, also entered the valley with the cavalry behind them. They watched with satisfaction as their warriors advanced like slaughtered lambs. While Daxuan's soldiers were fiercely

Amidst the sound of war drums, signs of defeat became more apparent.

Leader Hesuote looked at Daxuan's war drum, his eyes suddenly glared: "That drummer, kill him! Revenge for the Ninth Prince!"

During yesterday's battle, the leaders of Virat and Tuhurt were not present. They were outside preparing food and other matters. At this time, I looked up and saw that the person beating the war drum was not a soldier, but a general.

He wears a sun-dry gold helmet of cooked steel with a bunch of red tassels on the helmet; a pair of iron leaf armor with a large tiger's mouth on the shoulder; an animal-faced gold belt tied around his waist, and two bronze breast guards on the front and back.

Under his feet are black gold-patterned cowhide boots. He is about fifty years old and has an extraordinary appearance.

"How could he kill the Ninth Prince at his age? The Ninth Prince is born with divine power!" Leader Virat said in surprise.

"Yes, I saw it with my own eyes, so I can't be careless. Warriors of Voss, the eternal God has given you the courage to kill the drummer!" Leader Hesot pointed the tribal flag forward in his hand and ordered.

By killing Daxuan's generals, perhaps King Vos will be more lenient and let their tribe go.

The other two tribal leaders also pointed their tribal flags at Hong Liang at the same time: "Hurree!" Then they hit their horses and ran in the direction of Hong Liang.

Hong Liang heard the shouts of the Voss people behind him, and his men kept beating the drums. Looking back, he saw two leader-like figures on horseback, commanding the soldiers to charge with flags. He was secretly happy that this was about to kill their big soldiers.

Troops have been brought in.

It was still difficult for Daxuan's soldiers to fight two against one, and the Voss soldiers who came in from behind made it even more difficult for them. The battle formation was ineffective, and they were increasingly crowded by the Voss people.

More Voss cavalry poured into the valley. Although they could not charge on horseback, they sat firmly on their horses and fired arrows in a loud direction.

"Kill him! One thousand cattle and sheep!" Chief Hesote shouted out the bounty. The Voss people were even more crazy! One thousand cattle and sheep, this can buy a family food for at least three years!

More cavalry poured into the valley, and they fired arrows one after another. Even if they were shot to death, they would still be rewarded. Accidental injuries were unavoidable, but killing the opponent's general was the most important.

"General! Be careful!" One of Hong Liang's personal guards swung a sword to deflect the incoming arrows, and another guard grabbed the heavy shield next to the body of the shield soldier on the ground to protect Hong Liang.

Hong Liang's men kept moving, but his eyes never left the battle at the bottom of the valley. Daxuan's soldiers would be able to enter the trail if they retreated further. However, he could not give the order yet. It was too early and could easily be discovered by the opponent.

Hong Liang's heart was aching at this moment. He wanted to watch these young soldiers lose their lives so tragically, and their usually bright smiling faces lost their color in the dust. He couldn't stop it yet. There was nothing.

Things would make a general so sad!

"Boom!" A guard holding a shield fell down, "Boom! Boom!" The guards around him fell to the ground one by one. The Voss people's arrows attacked fiercely, and the gap around Hong Liang became bigger and bigger, and finally

, another arrow came, and the guards had no time to stop it, and it pierced Hong Liang's back! The huge impact made Hong Liang's body shake! Then two more arrows hit his legs.

If the general doesn't call for retreat, then the soldiers will continue to fight, but now the general has been hit by three arrows. The remaining guards don't care about anything else, they hug Hong Liang and retreat to the path.

"Chase! Kill him!" The three Voss leaders shouted, brandishing their swords, shaking their reins and leading the charge forward. The Voss people who were fighting with the Daxuan soldiers also pursued and killed them with all their lives.

Hong Liang is tall and powerful, and his armor is very conspicuous. The Voss people can easily see the target. Even Daxuan's generals fled, how could they let go of such an opportunity! Under the leadership of the three leaders, the Voss cavalry

Clamp the horse's belly, urge the horse, and shoot arrows at the same time.

Hong Liang was hit by an arrow in the leg and did not retreat quickly. Daxuan's soldiers surrounded the general, fighting and protecting him at the same time.

Finally, we retreated to the trail behind the valley. On the slopes on both sides of the trail, there were Daxuan soldiers hiding in the trees. When they saw the general injured, they rushed down to snatch him up. Ma Da, who was in charge of the ambush, waved his hand to stop everyone's movement: "

wait!"

"General Ma, all generals..." one of his subordinates said anxiously. But he saw Ma Da's red eyes.

"Wait!" Ma Da gritted his teeth. The muscles around his jaw bulged. He was not within range yet. The ambush on the slope could not be exposed too early. He wanted to bring in as many Voss people as possible. But uncle...

Hong Liang retreated and looked back. He had to lure the enemy firmly. The arrows on his legs hindered his movement. Hong Liang cut off half of the arrow shaft with two "clicks" against his legs.

"Retreat!" he stopped and shouted, but fixed his eyes in the direction of the tribal leaders, for fear that they would not hear. Leaders He and Sauter, who were eager to kill Hong Liang and had made up for their mistakes, had already dismounted and charged into the ramp. The other two leaders followed closely.

Later.
