The Nanmen army also suffered nearly a hundred casualties.
The cruelty of this battle was beyond everyone's expectation.
Didn't it mean that Anton and the Blackwater City Army were both mediocre in combat power, so this battle was just a fight between novices?
Why does it feel like blood and flesh are flying everywhere and you are fighting to the death?
However, the losses of the miscellaneous army here were very small. Only one person in the Baling team was injured, or he was injured by a stray arrow due to his own carelessness; both the Tiangong and Jianyangmen teams were intact.
Those who can be sent to the Panlong Desert to hunt for treasures are all the best among the best. This time they are fighting for Blackwater City, and they will not go out of their way to die, so of course they can do as they please.
At this time, the sound of the cannon shot from Xiancali, and more than 300 enemy troops rushed out!
Liao Shan was worried and sent out 300 backup men.
At this time, the pressure on the Nanmen army increased suddenly.
Counting the three battlefields of the Blackwater City Army, they did not take advantage of any of them.
Liao Shan had already seen through He Chunhua's trick. Since the Blackwater City army was out in full force, there was no need to go back.
Zhang Lianhai's attendants crowded around him and hissed: "Sir, the Baling people are ready to flee!"
"How do you know?" Zhang Lianhai controlled the lantern spirit and shot away a stray arrow. The weapons on the battlefield were not long-sighted, so even he had to be careful. Once the battle situation reversed, they must evacuate as soon as possible.
"They keep moving north!" The attendant nodded his chin to the north, "Look, they are almost reaching the edge of the battlefield!"
Their target is the Panlong ruins in the desert. Why are they trying to help the people of Blackwater City here?
The people from Baling are leaving, so why should we be taken advantage of by staying here?
Zhang Lianhai said decisively: "Let's go north too!"
If you go north, you may be able to wait for an opportunity to escape from the battlefield.
Just as everyone in the Heavenly Palace was about to move, the eastern sky was illuminated by several handfuls of fireworks.
A few whirring sounds, red, blue, yellow and green.
Those are real fireworks. The people of Heishui City ask craftsmen to make fireworks for every wedding and wedding. At this time, when they explode into the sky, they are particularly festive and eye-catching.
The most important thing is, the location where they exploded——
Right at the foot of Calabash Mountain, the logistics camp of the Anton people!
Anton's army was startled and their positions were in chaos:
Has your home been robbed?
The general immediately sent hundreds of men and horses back to help. However, He Chunhua's generals were not vegetarians. Upon seeing this, they shouted loudly: "The Andong people's camp has been lost, attack, march!"
Countless people chanted together.
The Blackwater City Army was outnumbered by its opponents. It originally suffered a loss and was forced to retreat steadily. When encountering such a sudden reversal, the Blackwater City Army was so excited that the Anton people were shocked. Their morale rose and fell.
Yuanli is divided into superior and inferior.
Just when the situation was reversed, a team rushed out from the east gate of Blackwater City again. They were equipped with strong armor, strong men and horses, and headed straight towards the enemy.
This team held high the banner with the word "Congratulations", and it was He Chunhua who personally participated in the battle!
With the arrival of the commander in person, the Blackwater City army became even more excited and pushed the front to the east with all their strength.
At this time, no one noticed that the "Congratulations" flag fluttering in the wind was actually a bit old-fashioned.
This is an old item that He Chunhua ordered someone to find from the warehouse in Blackwater City. It was last used almost ten years ago.
…
He Lingchuan and others climbed out of the secret passage, bypassed the circle surrounded by the Anton people, and headed towards Hulu Mountain in the dark.
Thanks to his intimate knowledge of the nearby terrain, he could not make a wrong move even with his eyes closed, so he was able to lead the people in many twists and turns and quietly make their way to the camp behind enemy lines.
At this time, the Andong camp was still brightly lit and people were coming and going.
He Lingchuan and others lurked in the countryside.
This lying down lasted for three hours.
During this period, you must avoid sentry patrols. You must not run around, make noise, boo, or even play against the wind.
He Lingchuan observed the two groups of people around him. The Rongshan people led by Qiu Hu were as quiet as stones. Apart from occasionally moving their hands and feet and changing positions with He Lingchuan, they made no unnecessary movements.
There were many minor problems with the elite troops of the Kite Army. One soldier didn't even steady his spear, and it almost rolled down the hillside and hit a rock.
In the eyes of Qiu Hu and others, He Lingchuan behaved more freely. Staying in the mountains where the ground is humid and full of snakes and ants is as comfortable as sitting in his own bedroom.
But every time he led everyone to change locations, he was very precise and safe.
This "Young Master He" has a lot of determination and patience.
Everyone was yawning in anticipation, the war drums were beating in the east, and the Andong camp was in a hurry.
Blackwater City's counterattack finally began.
He Lingchuan waited for the Anton people's teams to go out one after another, and the last group was more than a thousand people.
There were only 340 people left in the camp.
Qiu Hu asked him: "Take it?"
In order to harass the enemy's logistics camp, an overwhelming force advantage is not necessarily required.
He Lingchuan had just returned from the front of the mountain, avoiding sentries along the way. The Anton people made the right choice to camp on Calabash Mountain. Climbing halfway up the mountain, they could overlook the battle at the east and south gates of Blackwater City.
It is equally convenient for He Lingchuan to observe the battle situation now.
"Don't worry, I think the foreign aid from Tiangong and Jianyangmen are fighting well, and the guarding army can't suppress them either."
The task assigned to him by He Chunhua was to make a surprise attack on the Anton people's rear camp. As for how to lurk the team and how to choose the timing, He Lingchuan needed to make his own decision.
As if to confirm his words, not long after, the 300 Andong people who had stayed in the camp were also transferred out.
Now, there are less than fifty people left in the empty camp, and they look like fat sheep in the eyes of He Lingchuan and others.
He Lingchuan then waved his hand:
"rush!"
He likes to use the many to defeat the few and use the many to bully the few!
First, several battalion soldiers holding the gun were shot to the throat with an arrow, and then 70 people jumped down from the hillside. The main force was a tiger coming down the mountain to take the lead. The 70 people wanted to rush out of the 200 people.
The opponent rushed to intercept, and He Lingchuan and Qiu Hu rushed to the front with their swords in hand, killing four or five in the blink of an eye.
Qiu Hu even grabbed the collar of Anton's soldier, threw him two feet away, and slammed him against a big tree. Then he stretched out his hand, grabbed the arrow that attacked him, and directly pierced the arrow that was attacking him.
On the chest of an Easterner.
The unlucky guy fell down and slipped out, and was already dead when his feet hit the ground.
Not to mention the enemy, the soldiers in Blackwater City were frightened when they saw it.
He Lingchuan was more agile than him in dealing with enemies, but he was nowhere near as ferocious and brutal as him.
Qiu Hu moved his hands like a tiger in human skin, no one dared to stop him.
With their sharp knives in front, the Anton people's interception team was immediately cut into pieces.
The rest of the crowd took out the prepared oil and threw it on the important tents and carriage supplies, setting it on fire.
After a while, the camp was in flames.
He Lingchuan then fired several fireworks into the sky, causing the sky to explode with flowers.
I don't know who dug out several large gongs and started banging them. The sound could be heard far away at night.
…
As the camp was raided, the panicked Anton people found themselves in a situation where they were surrounded from the south, east and west.
There seemed to be enemies in all directions, and the shouts of killing were loud.
This army was not meant to be a force that could fight a hundred battles, and it could not be in chaos without collapse. He Chunhua seized the opportunity and commanded the Blackwater City Army to make several vertical cuts, tearing apart the Anton Army's formation.
The battle passed the turning point in one fell swoop.
