In Huatong City, the defenders are the 30th Division of the Third Northern Army. The defenders are quite brave. The general-killing warrior Pang Qingri is a division commander who fought hard from the bottom soldiers. He is over 1.9 meters tall and has a black iron essence.
The Golden Rod swept through the 30th Division and had few opponents in the Northern Third Army Corps.
Before dawn, Pang Qingri was woken up by the scout, "Sir, there are many refugees coming down from Huatong Mountain. The leader is most likely the legendary deputy commander of the Nanqiu County Militia. He is a fearless knight who killed half a team of low-ranking brothers.
.”
"What!" Pang Qingri was completely awake, "Okay, I haven't gone to trouble him yet, but he came down first. You can bring a few more teams to find out!"
His men suffered several losses in Huatong Mountain. Since he did not dare to leave Huatong City, he did not personally lead troops to the mountain to clear out the refugees. Shao Dianfei and others were refugees in his eyes.
The alert of Huatong City has been raised by one level, and all the defenders have entered a battle-ready state. They must keep their clothes, armor and weapons, and carry a small amount of water and dry food. When the battle is fierce, it is impossible to leave the battlefield to replenish water and food, so they can only take the time to deal with it during the battle.
.
"Report!" The scouts rushed into the city lord's mansion again. "The refugees from Huatongshan detoured to the east of the city. About four to five thousand people came straight to the east gate."
"Hahaha, I was worried that I couldn't go up the mountain to deal with them, but now they are here. Send an order to the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 4th brigades to follow me out of the city to fight and annihilate this group of refugees in one fell swoop!" Pang Qingri, who was fully clothed, stood up and shouted loudly.
Step towards the door.
He felt that four thousand people were enough to wipe out the refugees in Shaodian Kingdom, so he only brought ten magicians with him, who were also prepared to track the enemy.
Today, Shao Dianfei pulled out 5,000 people and brought all the equipment they could carry to form an all-encompassing militia force. Some had standard weapons, some had homemade spears and forks, and some had hunting weapons.
They used bows, and some even used kitchen knives and iron pots. They had everything. Not to mention Pang Qingri, even Ding Kui would have thought that this group of militiamen were refugees.
Since it is called an army, it has a flag. A sixteen or seventeen-year-old boy followed Shaodian Fei holding a flag. In the center of the flag was a big word "民" embroidered with the three words "Nanqiu County" below.
The small characters represent that this is the Nanqiu County Militia.
The militia is different from the local army. It belongs to a different armed system. There are no requirements for uniforms and weapons. However, the organization is still based on the military's usual organization, such as a small team of ten people and a squadron of one hundred people. Shao Dianfei divided the five thousand people into
The First Civilian Brigade, the Second Civilian Brigade, the Third Civilian Brigade, the Fourth Civilian Brigade and the Fifth Civilian Brigade.
After coming down from Huatong Mountain, Shao Dianfei directed his troops to go to the east of Huatong City. The people below didn't think there was any problem. The north of the city must be the most heavily defended place by the enemy. Of course, they had to avoid the truth and avoid the truth.
"Report, there is Baye Village ahead. After passing this village, we will reach Huatong City."
Some locals volunteered to serve as scouts to explore the way for this militia force.
"Baye Village, okay! We are waiting for the enemy here. Who is more familiar with Baye Village?" Shao Dianfei asked the people around him while sitting on his horse.
He brought this horse from Chunlu City, and today he specially organized five hundred knights from the knight guilds in each city to ride the horse down the mountain.
"I." The flag bearer behind Shaodian Fei weakly raised his hand, "I am from Baye Village."
"You?" Shao Dianfei looked back, "That's great, show me all the ways to enter the village."
The militia troops did not move forward after entering the village. They dug pits and built walls on the village road leading to the main road, apparently trying to defend Baye Village.
"Hahaha," Pang Qingri laughed after getting the news, "These mud-legged people came down the mountain in large numbers just to occupy a village? They are probably afraid of fighting with us, thinking that they can resist our army's attack by staying in the village. It's ridiculous.
!" After saying that, he led four thousand soldiers and horses and rushed to Baye Village.
In less than a quarter of an hour, our army set up a formation in front of Baye Village, and Pang Qingri carefully observed the village's defenses.
"Hmph, they look impressive. Their leader should be a professional soldier." He sneered. "It's a pity, refugees are refugees. No matter how well-organized they are, they can't withstand a single blow from our army. Order a large group to attack the main intersection of the village.
, the second brigade detoured to the side and rushed into the village."
As soon as the order was given, a scout horse came running from the rear, "Emergency military situation! Smoke and dust were found in the south, and it is suspected that a large number of cavalry are coming."
"A large number of cavalry?" Pang Qingri's expression became serious, "To the south is Xixuan City. I have set up more than ten sentries. Is there no news?"
"Absolutely not."
"Oops, they can only be enemies!" He stared at Baye Village, "Are they just bait?"
The villagers did not know what was going on outside. They only saw two thousand soldiers coming towards them. The militiamen guarding the rear of the fortifications were very nervous. This time they did not occupy a favorable terrain like they did in the mountains. They were not sure whether they could stop the soldiers.
"Deputy Commander, let the cavalry attack!" Liu Kai was eager to try on his horse.
The commander-in-chief of the Nanqiu County militia is Ding Kui, and Shao Dianfei is the deputy commander. He shook his head and said, "Now is not the time for the archers to release their arrows and shoot freely!"
The troops attacking the main intersection formed a front line and rushed towards the earthen wall blocking the road with shouts.
Scattered bows and arrows were shot in the village. There were too few militiamen who knew how to shoot, but every arrow could hit an enemy. Civilian archers were accurate.
"Listen up to the Third Civilian Brigade. Pick up more stones. If you can't find them, tear down some wall bricks. Throw them out as soon as the enemy approaches."
Lu Guansong, president of the Huatong City Knights Guild, commanded the Third Civilian Brigade. The best equipment was provided to the first two brigades. They were only auxiliary troops, harassing the enemy on the second line.
"Magic, go to the south and take a look. If you find an enemy, try to delay it as long as possible; three or four large formations will form a circle and block the road for me!" Pang Qingri gave the decisive order.
If there were really Shaodian Kingdom's cavalry behind them, then there wasn't much time left for him, because he had already seen the smoke and dust in the southern sky.
In fact, there was someone high up in the sky. Ding Kui was holding Ao Yu's hand and looking around. A film of water flowed on their bodies, making them invisible to the naked eye.
"Haha, the time is just right. Shao Dianfei did not disappoint me, and he indeed led the Huatong City defenders out." Ding Kui could see the situation in Baye Village.
All the cavalry under his command are charging. At the front is the Red Army cavalry brigade commanded by Shao Diancheng, followed by the cavalry brigade of the 75th Division and three hundred local knights. On the left and right flanks are Zhou Hongbin's brigade and Xiao Yanding's brigade, a total of four thousand
Three hundred people.
Such a cavalry unit is probably comparable to an ordinary cavalry division.
At this time, Shao Dianfei noticed a slight vibration on the ground. He quickly lay down and listened with his ear to the ground. An excited expression gradually appeared on his face.
"Liu Kai, obey the order!" He jumped up from the ground.
"My subordinate is here!"
"A large group moved away the roadblock and the cavalry attacked!" Shao Dianfei said as he raised his gun and mounted his horse.
"Sir, do I still want to follow?" The boy holding the flag became anxious.
"You stay here and don't move!" After saying this, Shaodian flew towards the village entrance, lapping his horse.
On the other side, Pang Qingri was trying his best to control his restless mount. He looked back from time to time, and suddenly found a cavalry rushing out of the village, shouting: "It's broken! We have been ambushed by the enemy."
He saw fighting spirit emerging from the spear tips of those cavalrymen, and knew that these people were not just refugees, but serious knights. The refugees on Huatong Mountain were not just as simple as the leader of the fearless knights.
In the past, he didn't take it seriously when a small group of troops went up to the mountains to suppress the bandits and failed. After all, there were experts among the people. As long as they were brought to the level for a team fight, he would have full confidence.
"Command the Second Brigade to break into the village and outflank the main intersection from behind!" What he was really afraid of was the enemies behind him. The number of enemies in front of him was small and not enough to threaten him.
"You see the enemy, speed up! Charge as fast as you can!" Shao Diancheng raised his arms and shouted.
"Quick! Keep up with the vanguard, this is our chance to make a meritorious deed!" Zhou Hongbin was keenly aware of the changes in the vanguard.
The Second Battalion of the 74th Division went to the battlefield to atone for their sins. The people in the other brigades didn't say anything, but their eyes regarded them as the culprits.
If Ding Kui hadn't arrived in time that night, the entire division would have become disobedient elements and would have been implicated alive by Zhong Jiong and his second brigade.
Although the second brigade did not fully accept Zhou Hongbin's leadership, it now had the opportunity to clear away the charges that should not have existed. They all beat their mounts like crazy, trying to overtake the vanguard and attack first.
"Fuck, what are the Second Brigade doing?" Xiao Yanding ran at the front of the Third Brigade, and out of the corner of his eye, he noticed that the Second Brigade's flag had already surpassed his own.
He looked forward and backward during the internal fighting in the division, but when he got to the battlefield, he became a completely different person.
Bang, he whipped his whip in the air and shouted: "Brothers, charge up! No one can lose to the second team!"
When the cavalry at the back heard "lost to the Second Brigade", they immediately raised their buttocks, half stood up, and guided the horses into the best running state. What's the point of riding in formation and not riding in formation? Do you want to guide the grudge attack?
, put all these aside and catch up with the group of "sinners" first.
Pang Qingri had already seen the cavalry rushing out from behind. What was even more terrifying was that two people suddenly appeared in the air, flew into the middle of the magicians he sent, and slapped the magicians to the ground one by one.
"Can't you really eat them?" Ao Yu licked his lips.
"Don't come here! Aren't there enough monsters in the river for you to eat? They are always thinking about eating people." Ding Kui shuddered.
"What a waste of their magic power." Ao Yu failed to win over Ding Kui and only killed five magicians.
These two guys just agreed that they were not allowed to use long-range attacks, and could only use slaps.
"It's enough for us to bully people, let's leave their bodies intact." Ding Kui actually felt compassion.
"Hypocritical!" Ao Yu twisted his mouth.
Liu Kai led the cavalry into the enemy's formation. Five hundred knights faced one thousand infantry. The key was that his own army did not expect the cavalry to rush out and did not have time to form an effective defensive formation. They were scattered on the spot.
Pang Qingri said angrily: "The Third Brigade is following me!" He raised the black iron and fine gold rod and rushed out.
