"Ding Kui! You are so crazy! Do you really think that our country has no one?" Kou Zimo appeared on the roof.
"How is that possible! I'm not as ignorant as you. Your country may have a larger population than ours. I have common sense, okay?" Ding Kui threw away the body in his hands.
"Wow, if there are more people like you in your country, I'm afraid the population will drop sharply." He mocked Kou Zimo.
The place where the arrow hit the body was just blocking his crotch.
"You have a vicious heart. You drove the civilians away from their homes in the harsh winter. Be careful, I will come to your territory to take revenge!" Kou Zimo did not engage in a verbal argument with Ding Kui, but directly said harsh words.
Ao Yu's eyes widened, and he went up without saying a word. Only an afterimage was left on the ground, and his true body had already jumped onto the roof.
Kou Zimo was startled. He didn't dare to confront the great martial artist. He immediately turned over and jumped off the roof, using the complicated terrain to move left and right to avoid Ao Yu's pursuit.
As a master archer, he was slightly faster than Ao Yu, but he did not dare to run directly back to the town center for fear of Ding Kui's interference.
"Set fire, light fire, burn this military stronghold!" Ding Cai commanded his men to set fire to it.
After a civilian town is converted into a military town, it is not protected by hidden rules, and hostile parties can destroy places with military purposes.
The Eighth Brigade brought many new weapons this time,*.
This kind of bottle filled with alcohol and kerosene is easy to carry. Each person can hang three or five bottles on his body. It is more convenient than carrying an oil can, and it can be thrown much further than an oil can. It is really a weapon for killing people and setting fires.
The scene of hundreds of guns being thrown out was spectacular, and half of the town was ignited at once. Although the snow was falling, it could not stop the fire from spreading. Our troops hiding in the buildings ran out one after another, and were greeted by crossbows and arrows.
They would rather choose to be shot to death than crossbow arrows.
There were two large camps on the north and south sides of the military town. At this time, it was discovered that the military town was on fire, and troops were immediately sent to support them.
"The entire army will use squadrons as units to intercept and kill the enemy!" Dong Ba, who was ambushing outside, ordered the attack.
Ding Kui listened to the loud cavalry horn and laughed: "Hahaha! I'm afraid they won't come to save me, otherwise I won't be able to attack them."
An expert in sneak attacks must know how to encircle a point and call for reinforcements. How could he be afraid of reinforcements when he had a cavalry division in hand? He believed that no amount of reinforcements would be enough to kill Dong Ba and his men.
Boom! A loud noise came from the front.
Ding Kui looked intently and saw the direction Ao Yu was chasing, so he rushed over.
Ao Yu and Yan Ce got into a fight, and they started fighting on the ground. People and buildings around them were damaged. A little bit of the energy from the fighting could destroy a house.
Although his own army had many people, the place where Ao Yu chose to fight was not spacious, successfully limiting the enemy's help.
Yudi was busy mobilizing his troops. The only magician he had on hand was transferred to the west to stop Xie Peng. He was very clear-headed. The troops coming out of Matu City would not be many, and they were far easier to deal with than Ding Kui in the east.
Zhong Wei's troops encountered a strong blockage after breaking through the west gate. The complex terrain in the town and the enemy's specially-made fortifications greatly restricted the role of the crossbow. Xie Peng, who had always been invincible, was entangled by the enemy magician and could not escape
Take action to help the ground troops; the dense enemy troops on the streets also block the infantry's advance, and the two armies engage in small street battles.
Maybe it was because the higher-ups had issued a death order, but our own troops had a very strong will to fight. When those in front fell, someone behind them would jump on them. When they saw the wounded soldiers who could not survive, they resorted to a strategy of killing them together, and even needed to hit the enemy more often.
Only later did Zhong Wei find out that Yudi had issued an order that those who were killed or disabled in the battle tonight would receive ten times the post-war pension.
"Give me a weapon." Niu Erbing turned around and shouted.
This is the second time he has to change weapons. Previously, he cut down five or six soldiers in a row. The two swords he used initially turned into a pair of saws, and then he changed to a big knife. Now the big knife has also been cut off, so he has to take a step back.
Change your weapons and fight again.
"Captain, here." The clever Jian Xingkong handed over a mace.
"Here," Niu Erbing was stunned, "Okay, that's fine too." Without thinking too much, he got the mace. There was no time to choose a weapon at this time, as long as it can be used.
Shao Dianye scolded from behind: "Niu Erbing, you are the commander of the crossbow corps, come back!" He didn't want to fight to the front line. He was a fearless knight and would never break weapons like Niu Erbing did.
Niu Erbing said without looking back: "First regiment commander, help me lead my men. I can't shoot the shield bearer in front, so I have to go back to my old job!"
He was an infantryman, and he was best at melee combat. After being frustrated with his crossbow, he picked up the weapon on the ground and started using it.
Mo Jun, who was at the front, was holding a long-handled sword. At this moment, he suddenly raised his sword and said "Whirlwind!" He stepped forward and turned around to sweep.
The blade refracted the firelight, and several snowflakes were dyed light yellow. Although the time was short, it could reveal its youthful beauty in the sky full of snowflakes.
Two of our own soldiers were cut down on the spot, and a gap appeared in the defensive formation.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoops, more than a dozen sharp arrows seized this opportunity and shot into our own formation, targeting the second row of spearmen, including the arrows shot by Li Hao.
Fighting in this environment, the archers of the Mixed Division 1 replaced their usual long and short bows and used their archery skills that they had practiced for many years to attack the enemy. Since the distance was very close, the lethality of the bows and arrows was not inferior to that of powerful crossbows.
"Sweeping style!" Mo Jun leaned down and swept the long knife close to the ground. The curled blade struck at the enemy's feet.
This is his usual move, and he has made countless achievements in battles. It is said that he realized it while sweeping the floor, so it was named "Sweeping Move".
Although the trick was very simple, it was very effective. The shield hand in the front row of our own army couldn't think about it. As a result, he was stabbed in the calf and fell down due to the severe pain.
"Capture Yudi alive, get promoted and make a fortune!" Niu Erbing yelled a slogan he had just heard, swung his mace as a spear, and rushed straight into the gap opened by Mo Jun.
This is the difference between the swordsman and the warrior. The swordsman has a deeper understanding of power and can skillfully use more weapons.
The slogan he heard was shouted by the Fourth Brigade of the 5th Division. Yes, Xie Luoli led his troops to break into the town center.
Although the 5th Division has the help of Ding Kui and Ao Yu, its own combat effectiveness is stronger than that of the 1st Division. Among them, Xie Luoli has the most experience in studying battle formations.
He was the first captain to use mixed infantry and crossbows. He also specially selected ten archers to form a storm attack team, which exerted great combat effectiveness in such small street battles.
The four brigades had the best fighting coordination, so they rushed to the front. The enemy troops they encountered along the way were vulnerable and completely unable to stop their advance.
Our own army has no choice. When the enemy infantry attacks, crossbow arrows can be shot through the gaps, and the shield bearers have no time to cover. The most critical point is that whenever they form a dense formation, more than a dozen people will hit them head-on, and more
There are not enough people to burn.
* is the latest thing developed. Currently, there are only 5 divisions with equipment. The 1st division has been stationed in Matu City. It is not their turn to receive this new weapon yet.
Xie Luoli is not like Ding Cai. His mission is not to set fires. Each subordinate only brings one gun. He is not as generous in using it as the Eighth Brigade. He only throws a dozen at a time.
This thing is more intimidating to people than it is lethal, because unlike buildings, people can't move, and they won't be fixed in place for you to burn. It can be put out if it touches a little fire, but it will be miserable if it is directly hit by a gun. It will change on the spot.
Becoming a burning man, who can be saved in the battle?
"Move to the south camp!" Yudi ordered to escape as expected.
The defense of the military town is very high, but after Ding Kui invaded, most of the defenses were in vain. If he didn't leave, he would really be captured alive by Ding Kui.
The North and South Camps each had more than 30,000 troops, and 40,000 troops were stationed in the military town. Yudi fled to the South Camp with the remaining troops, and with the reinforcements from the North Camp, they still had the strength to fight.
Ding Kui was at a disadvantage due to his small number of troops. The number of troops engaged in the battle was less than 40,000. There were more than 10,000 troops ambushing outside the military town for reinforcements, and more than 10,000 troops broke into the military town.
The elite troops are good at attacking tough situations, but there is a shortage of manpower when chasing and escaping. It's okay if one person chases one person, but two people chase each other? What will you do if they split up and run away?
"Don't pursue the poor enemy. We will burn the military town and return to Matu City." Ding Kui ordered to stop the pursuit.
He didn't expect that Yan Ce and Kou Zimo would come so quickly. Without these two sixth-level warriors, he could kill Yu Di. The north and south camps would be destroyed without attack. But when they came, Yu Di couldn't kill them, so he had to change his tactics.
.
The military town that Yudi had painstakingly built was burned to the ground, and the fire dyed a dark cloud red. The snow flakes above the military town turned into water vapor, thickening the clouds at low altitude again.
Dong Ba reined in his horse, looked at Ding Kui in the sky, and asked: "Young Master, why don't you let us pursue you?"
"There are master knights and great archers in the defeated army. I will not allow your troops to suffer losses." Ding Kui knew that he would not be able to stop the 2nd Division unless he came.
Dong Ba pulled the horse in a circle. He was charging too hard just now and couldn't stop for a while. "Thank you for your care, young master, but it is a pity to let the enemy chief run away."
"Hmph, a toothless tiger just left. Will it bite me in the future? Let's go back to Matu City!" Ding Kui personally urged the cavalry division to withdraw from the battlefield.
Ding Kui made great gains in tonight's battle. He killed more than 30,000 of the main force of the Northern Third Army and burned down the strongholds that threatened Matu City. Even if his own army continued to stay in Matu City, it would be difficult to achieve anything.
Fei Ze greeted the victorious soldiers at the gate of the city. Zeng Jian organized people to distribute hot meals, hot dishes and hot soup to reward the army. He also revealed the news of his army's defeat to the residents of the city.
"Thank you for your hard work, Mr. Fei." Ding Kui flew to the ground and pulled Fei Ze into the city.
Fei Ze was half a step behind and bowed: "Congratulations, my lord, for another great victory. My subordinates are willing to support the spirits of the fallen soldiers and take them home."
At this time, as a staff member, he had to deal with the aftermath, and at the same time, he also saw Ding Kui's strategic intentions.
When Ding Kui was told the central issue, he couldn't help but sigh: "Yes, it's time to go home. We came to grab things. It's time to go back when we have the things."
In this invasion of our own country, the initial strategic goal has been achieved. There is no need to continue to fight fiercely with our own army. We must stop when we are good.
"Oh, by the way, Madam is here and waiting for you at the City Lord's Mansion." Fei Ze smiled slightly.
