Chapter 519 Battle(1/2)
"Sir Wulang, the people have been assembled."
A rebel soldier walked out from behind the dense crowd and came to Goro's side.
Now all the effective combat forces that can be assembled in the military camp are concentrated in the square, with a total of six to seven hundred people. The rest are wounded soldiers, logistics, and training soldiers who have not been on the battlefield.
This time the shogunate's army came in force, and they didn't look so easy to deal with.
Although he didn't know why the opponent was acting uncharacteristically, Goro decided that he had to fight back hard. After all, the current situation of the resistance army was not good. If the opponent discovered this fact, the subsequent battle situation would be even more unfavorable.
It is not impossible to even lose the position on Yaru Island.
When he thought that the flames of war might reach the mainland of Kaiji Island, Goro's determination for the current battle became even more firm.
But when his eyes swept across the soldiers in the back row, he was suddenly stunned.
Bai Qiyun, who was supposed to stay in the camp to rest, appeared beside the soldiers at some unknown time, with Zheping leading him forward.
Bai Qiyun met Wu Lang's eyes, nodded, and did not come up to disturb his pre-battle arrangements.
"Well, okay, let's disperse according to the original formation."
After a while, Wulang regained his composure and gave instructions to the subordinate who had spoken to him before.
Although there was a shortage of personnel in each squadron due to wounded soldiers, if the personnel were dispersed and reorganized in a short period of time, the combat effectiveness would be reduced, so Goro chose to fight with the original team.
Even though each team has a combat effectiveness deficit that prevents them from undertaking the same combat missions, Goro, who reads combat intelligence every day, quickly arranges each team into positions suitable for them based on their combat effectiveness.
.
Hundreds of people moved forward hiding themselves in the woods.
Bai Qiyun followed behind, ready to take action at any time.
But looking at the current situation, it seems that he doesn't have to show up for the time being.
"Zheping, aren't you a logistician? Why are you following me?"
Looking at the man beside him, Bai Qiyun had a strange look on his face.
"Haha, I thought there was a shortage of manpower, so I took the position of a wounded soldier and came over to give it a try."
Hearing this, Zheping scratched his hair and looked a little embarrassed.
In fact, he had noticed during the previous battle with the shogunate army that if he continued like this, no matter how hard he worked at the rear, there was still no possibility of progress.
Only by going to the front line to fight against the shogunate army can he have the opportunity to break through his limits and become a qualified soldier.
Moreover, this time the rebels could be said to have come out in full force, and their survival rate was guaranteed, so he followed them.
But who can say for sure what happens on the battlefield? Things can change rapidly.
You may be alive and well one moment, but die under the enemy's gun the next.
Zheping's face at this time was not only embarrassed but also slightly nervous. It could be seen that he was still a little afraid of the battlefield after making the decision to join the war.
Along the way, the resistance soldiers said nothing and rushed to the battlefield in silence.
Because the rebel army's camp was stationed on the mountainside, the shogunate army did not invade rashly, but instead gathered around not far from the foot of the mountain.
They knew that the group of rebels would definitely come down the mountain, otherwise they would be suffocated to death on the mountain.
Sure enough, half an hour later, resistance soldiers poured out from all over the foot of the mountain.
They were scattered everywhere according to the pre-arrangement, avoiding the embarrassing situation of being surrounded.
"Humph, the reaction is not slow."
The leader of the shogunate army this time is a man named Takano Kuzan. He is not too outstanding in the military, but his strength has reached the captain level.
The main purpose of his visit this time was to deal with the general of the resistance army. As long as there was no captain-level involvement, the difference in individual quality between the shogunate army and the resistance army would be enough to determine the outcome.
You can overwhelm them with just the panel, so what tactics do you need?
Tactics, that's something you only pay attention to when your strength is about the same.
This time he brought five hundred people, which was a lot less than the rebels.
But no soldier thought he would lose.
As long as the rebels don't clean up those messy things, they feel that they will not be at a disadvantage.
In fact, when the shogunate army and the rebels first started fighting, the fighting was much more intense than it is now.
It is common to break into the opponent's camp.
However, due to the terrain, the shogunate army suffered a lot. After being beaten a few times by the woman named Coral Palace Xinhai, they gained a good memory.
It is easy to never step into the mountains and forests where the rebels are located again, so this is the current situation of setting up a battle posture on a flat and open beach.
Otherwise, the shogunate's army would have invaded unscrupulously due to the difference in numbers. I'm afraid the shogunate's army would have already reached Kaijishima by now.
"That is...."
Wulang stood in front of everyone and saw the enemy general named Takano from a distance. The powerful elemental fluctuations on the opponent's body made him unable to look away, making him secretly say something bad.
According to the past situation, when the rebels were fighting with fewer people and more people, he would involve the local generals while using the bows and arrows in his hands to support his own soldiers.
But I'm afraid it won't work this time. Judging from the opponent's appearance, he would have to use up all his energy just to deal with such a strong man, let alone support his subordinates.
In other words, this time it may be time to really fight for strength.
Looking at the soldiers beside him, Wulang took a slow breath.
But just when he was about to issue an offensive slogan, a pair of big hands fell on his shoulders.
Turning his head to look, Bai Qiyun, who had arrived beside him at some point, was looking at him with a smile.
"Leave that man to me."
"Eh?"
An unexpected surprise.
Wu Lang did not expect that Bai Qiyun could take the initiative to take on the task of fighting the enemy.
But at this time, such a strong support was exactly what Wulang needed, and he nodded without hesitation.
"Okay, then leave it to Mr. Bai."
Afterwards, Goro no longer looked at the man named Takano, but began to command his subordinates.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! It seems that he is really reassured about Bai Qiyun's fighting ability.
"It's really strange that you would take the initiative to take the job."
Yandora on the side seemed to have discovered a new road, wandering back and forth beside the boy, attracting many soldiers' glances.
"Well... there may be various reasons."
In fact, for Bai Qiyun, taking the initiative to take on the task of attacking the strongest enemy is a kind of escape and a kind of helplessness.
Although he is now wanted by the shogunate, he is not ready to truly become an enemy of the shogunate army.
Especially being prepared to kill them.
Having spent some time with Suzuno Chika, he naturally knew that the soldiers of the shogunate army were just children from poor families.
He could still sit back and watch the rebels fight with the shogunate army, but taking away the opponent's life with his own hands was indeed a bit difficult.
However, he also knew that even if he only took action to stop the enemy's generals, it would inevitably cause a gap in combat power between the two sides, resulting in more casualties among the shogunate army.
But it's better than doing it himself.
Although it was just self-deception and a bit hypocritical, Bai Qiyun felt that doing so would make him feel better, so he did it.
"Line up!"
The rebels moved forward step by step under Goro's instructions, and their uniform steps made bursts of sound on the ground.
"Tsk, it's quite stylish."
Takano didn't realize that he was about to be in disaster, and still commented on the resistance's military strength.
"Sir, do we want to fight?"
The subordinates on the side were waiting beside Takano, asking for instructions on the next step.
Hearing this, Gao Ye frowned and waved.
"No need, wait until they come to your door."
In fact, according to the tradition of fighting between the two armies, there is often a 'fight between generals' before the official battle begins, but perhaps because they were not prepared this time, both sides decided to ignore this link.
As a general, Goro's military quality was obviously higher than that of his opponent's generals.
Even when the rebels moved close at high speed, they still did not lose their formation, and it was still the same Crane Wing Formation.
Although it looks old-fashioned, it is very practical and proficient.
On the other hand, the military formation on the side of the shogunate army was very ordinary. A bunch of people just gathered together in a square formation and there was no way to deal with it.
But even so, when the two military formations were close to a certain extent, the rebels stopped in their tracks.
It's not that they don't have the ability to move forward, but they are already close to the attack range of the opponent's archers. If they move forward any further, they may suffer a wave of heavy losses.
