Chapter 128 General Kill
"Sir, there is something going on over there." The guard guard beside Pei Ji lowered his voice.
Although Chu Huan handed over the Governor-General Guards to Pei Ji, and once wanted to be justified and let Pei Ji serve as the commander of the Imperial Guards, Pei Ji never agreed, saying that he would choose the commander after the Imperial Guards were trained.
It would be fine if Chu Huan failed to persuade him several times. Although it would be unrighteous if his reputation was not right, the Imperial Guards were formed from the first day, Pei Ji was in charge of it. Everyone in the army knew that Pei Ji was the real leader, and the generals including Xu Shao respected Pei Ji very much.
The army also calls Pei Ji "Mr.".
Pei Ji gently stroked his long beard and smiled indifferently. This was what he expected. The bandits were trapped in Luoshen Village and would never wait to die. Now the officers and soldiers are attacking various camps. General Qiu must be worried that after the main force of the officers and soldiers captured each camp, they would increase their troops to Luoshen Village. At that time, it would be difficult to break through. Therefore, Pei Ji had already predicted that before the main force of the officers and soldiers captured each camp, the bandits trapped on the mountain would definitely choose to break through the road below Luoshen Village.
The military formation is at the foot of the flat mountain, and it is still a distance from Sunset Village.
The sound of horns reminded me of the soldiers and suddenly felt energetic. Knowing that the war was about to come, they were all ready to fight. Everyone's eyes were gaze at Sunset Village. Not long after, they saw that there seemed to be a cloud of darkness, and they rushed down the mountain with their teeth and claws, at extremely fast speed.
"Retreat!" Pei Ji waved his hand, and immediately sent a military order beside him. Thousands of soldiers, except for two rows of archers who were still guarding the wooden fence, the other soldiers actually retreated backwards.
The entire army was adjusted in an orderly manner.
The dark clouds floated down from the mountain, gathering bigger and bigger. The large area of darkness was already visible. The soldiers of the Chu army had already seen clearly that the dark clouds floating from the mountain were the bandits preparing to break through.
The bandits in Hulu Village did not make any sound, holding swords, guns and shields. Many people held war horses and did not rush over immediately. They saw the semi-arc wooden fence of the besieged city and saw the archers behind the wooden fence waiting for the battle. Both sides did not speak for a moment, the atmosphere was extremely depressing, and there was a silence like death.
The bandits looked fierce and fierce. At this time, they were no longer just meritorious and rewarded, but wanted to save their lives. In order to survive, they could only fight to the death.
Among the bandits, General Qiu was already riding on a black war horse. The war horse was very tall and strong. Those who knew the horse could tell at a glance that General Qiu's mount was a pure Western Liang horse, and among the Western Liang horses, this was also a good horse that was chosen from a thousand miles away.
He was wearing a mask, his eyes were as sharp as eagles, but his body was wearing black armor at this moment. His tough figure and strong horses matched each other very well, and they were very conspicuous among the crowd.
He held the reins of the horse in his left hand and his right hand was a weapon made of iron. The weapon was two or three meters long, and the front end was a sharp spear tip, but behind the spear tip, there was a flat iron hammer. This kind of weapon was very rare and could be stabbed and smashed. But if you want to use this weapon, the requirement is naturally very high, and the first thing is to have strong power.
Behind General Qiu, Mr. Hei was sitting. The two of them took advantage of the same horse. General Qiu did not forget Mr. Hei at this critical moment, and even brought him by his side to break through with him.
The bandits were already holding their weapons tightly and rushed immediately after General Qiu gave the order.
Pei Ji had already stood up from the chair at this time, holding a long stick in his hand, looking at the dark clouds, and looking calm.
General Qiu slowly raised his arm, pointed the hammer and rifle in his hand suddenly and said sternly: "Brothers, we have no way out. If we fail this battle, we will be virtuous and kill!"
He was full of energy and his voice was shocked. Before he finished speaking, the bandits roared. Some desperate bandits who were not afraid of death were already rushing forward first. The bandits behind him immediately followed, and a cloud of dark clouds came over.
These thousands of bandits poured out like a flood.
Although the number of officers and soldiers was not inferior to each other, the bandits shouted so fiercely and their momentum was extremely powerful, and many soldiers were secretly surprised.
Pei Ji was calm and composed. Seeing the bandits rushing over, his lips moved slightly and spit out a word: "Cum!"
As soon as the military order was issued, the horn sounded.
Amid the sound of the trumpet, the archers who used the wooden fence as the barrier were already shooting angrily. Hundreds of sharp arrows gathered in the air, like a sharp knife, piercing towards the dark clouds.
These hundreds of sharp arrows were like heavy hammers hitting the water waves, and the sickle crossed the wheat waves. Amid the sound of arrows like the wind, bandits were rushing over and screaming endlessly.
This round of arrows caused the bandits who were covered with dark clouds torn a crack and scattered in panic. Dozens of people had fallen to the ground. The bandits behind them slowed down a little, but they only slowed down a little, and then rushed over like crazy amid the roar.
Among these bandits, some of them were soldiers from the Northwest Army Pioneer Battalion. They were sent to the border to be cannon fodder and had been through life and death for a long time. In comparison, the perseverance and combat experience of this group of people definitely did not belong to Chu Huan's regular army.
Although the arrows were like rain, the bandits quickly stabilized their formation. The bandits holding shields rushed in front, while the bandits holding swords followed behind and rushed over like a torrent.
Seeing that the bandits were getting closer, Pei Ji gave the order, the spearmen had already stepped forward quickly, while the archers retreated tacitly, setting apart from the bandits, and still kept arrows.
The bandits were indeed not slow to sprint. Soon, many people rushed to the edge of the wooden fence. Although they were only temporarily built, thousands of officers and soldiers built the wooden fence in a short time, creating a barrier. The wooden fence was also as tall as one person, nailed to the ground, and the stones were solid. When the bandits rushed over, the spearmen had already ruthlessly stabbed the spear out of the middle of the wooden fence in an orderly manner.
The spear was like a poisonous snake, neatly arranged. The bandits near the wooden fence were pierced by the spear in an instant. In order to save their lives, the bandits behind had to fight to the death. The bandits in front fell down and continued to make up for it later.
Although a small number of the bandits in Hulu Village were from the Northwest Army's vanguard battalion, most of them were composed of bandits. They were just civilians before, and their combat effectiveness was really not satisfactory. Although General Qiu spent a lot of effort on military training after these bandits went up the mountain, they still had a big gap in their attempt to achieve the coordination and unity of the regular army and achieve the combat qualities of the regular army.
Most of the officers and soldiers led by Chu Huan went through the battle against the Western Liang Dynasty, and many of them crawled out of the dead, so they were brave.
The spear was stabbed out, then pulled it out fiercely, and then continued to stab forward. Repeating such movements was really easy for these well-trained officers and soldiers.
In just a moment, the wooden fence was filled with dead bodies.
After the archers opened the distance, the arrows continued, with long spears in front and sharp arrows in the back. Thousands of bandits were like lambs to be slaughtered. Under the ruthless slaughter of long spears and sharp arrows, they screamed and screamed, and the scene was extremely tragic.
However, there were many bandits after all, and although countless casualties were killed or injured, they still broke through the wooden fence under the bloody struggle of survival. The sound of trumpets started, and the officers and soldiers immediately retreated. The spearmen were fighting with the bandits. At this moment, they heard the rumbling footsteps. They saw that the officers and soldiers in the back team had completed their formation, forming a half-arc like a moon, approaching this side.
Just as the bandits attacked the wooden fence, Pei Ji ordered the soldiers to retreat, leaving a distance. It was within this short period of time that the second military formation was ready.
These are all shield soldiers holding shields. Chu Huan's family is not wealthy. He has no resources except the batch of strategic materials he recaptured from Dongfangxin.
All the shields in the arsenal were taken out this time, and most of the shields were called on Pei Ji's side, so there were quite a few shield soldiers on Pei Ji's side, and the half-moon-shaped shield soldiers were connected to each other, just like a moon made of a copper wall, full of murderous aura.
The shield soldiers fighting in front saw the rear team coming up and retreating, and the bandits chased after him, but the shield soldiers had already rushed up. When they saw their spearmen, the two shields immediately opened, and the spearmen passed through the gap. When the bandits caught up, the shield had closed again. As they advanced forward, the big knife slashed forward. The retreating spearmen formed a formation behind the shield soldiers, found the right opportunity, and the spears were stabbed forward.
Originally, the bandits broke through two wooden fences, which made them very motivated, but under the pressure of the shield array, they retreated back.
At this moment, I suddenly heard the neighing of the war horses, and the rumbling sounds sounded. The bandits heard the sound coming from behind. When they looked back, they saw nearly a hundred war horses forming a cavalry team. The first one was General Qiu in iron armor. The war horse under his crotch was named Wulong. He was like a whistling dragon. The bandits hurriedly dodged and waited for the cavalry to rush over.
It turned out that when the bandits were fighting forward, General Qiu had found an opportunity to gather the war horses brought down from the mountain together. Hulu Village had already trained a cavalry. These cavalry rode their horses on them, and under the command of General Qiu, they formed a cavalry team in a short time and quickly began to attack forward.
Although this horse team was not large in number, it was extremely powerful. Pei Ji saw it in the distance and frowned immediately.
General Qiu took the lead and rushed to the shield soldiers. Before the war horse arrived, the hammer gun in his hand had already hit hard. With a "boom", a shield soldier was smashed into meat sauce by a man and a shield. The oolong horse neighed and stepped forward. The spear soldiers on both sides and the shield sword hands rushed towards General Qiu. General Qiu roared and drew a big circle in his hand. His hammer gun was extraordinary. The soldiers around him were either dead or injured when they swept the hammer gun.
