Turbulent Times Chapter 1233: Steel Hedgehog
Before the screams stopped, the county soldiers in the second row pierced through the air and rushed towards the opposite side again. Many bandits swung their knives in mid-air, unable to reach the county soldiers on the opposite side, and were killed by the county soldiers' spear barrels that came over.
Xiong Kuohai stared dumbfounded at the fierce battle at the front. He found that those county soldiers who obviously did not know martial arts and had little experience in fighting just like this neatly stabbed the spears in their hands. There is no power to fight back, and the rattan shields in their hands are as if made of tofu.
As for the county soldiers, many of them didn't see their opponents at all, because their vision was crowded by their own companions, but they only needed to find a gap. He can't wait to stab the spear in the past.
For a moment, countless spears were puffing and puffing on the battlefield, and they drew dense silver tracks in the air, piercing the bandits in the Taihang Mountain on the opposite side to cry. The county soldiers, who could be regarded as recruits, were stabbed by the spears and retreated again and again.
There were screams one after another on the front line, and the dull puffing sound of spears piercing the flesh was endless. At the same time, there were waves of shouts of killing from the county soldiers. Shout "kill".
This style of play of the county soldiers stunned the bandits. They had never encountered such a weird and sharp opponent. Some brave bandits threw javelins, broad blades, flying swords, and axes at once. When they came over, more than a dozen county soldiers were caught off guard and were knocked over, but because of their solid armor defense, they were only injured, and these dozen people fell down, leaving a gap before the bandits rushed up, and there were county soldiers behind them. Quickly made up, and got a firm foothold, he picked up the spear and began to poke forward.
Some bandits tried to fight back, while others were pushed back by the chaotic flow of people.
"Is this the soldier of the famous King Qin An, the invincible poisonous general Wang Junlin? I heard that they are still recruits, but they are so strong. They really are too strong..." Xiong Kuohai looked gloomy and shock.
The seemingly fierce bandits had already begun to break up. More than a dozen bandits lost the courage to fight, and their subordinates threw down their weapons and fled from both sides.
"Come on, brothers, tie them into skewers." A captain of the county soldier shouted wildly.
The muffled sound of guns poking human flesh rang out again.
"Kill." A small, thin county soldier who looked to be only fifteen or sixteen years old stabbed violently, and the spear pierced accurately from the edge of the enemy's shield in front of him like lightning, piercing him from the forehead. A pair of piercings was opened to the back of the head. As a recruit, as a recruit who has practiced spear shooting for a year, he was still a little afraid and worried yesterday, but now he has no fear at all... "Kill!" A bandit crossbowman who tried to shoot was shot again. He poked a transparent hole in his chest.
The bandits in front of me began to dissipate in smoke. Before the cold and sharp waves of the county soldiers, another wave of bandits collapsed. Their resistance was gently wiped away like a spider's thread. The young county soldiers listened Beat the drums, and walk forward courageously with a gun.
The rebels from Gaojibo who were watching the battle were terrified by the battle scene in front of them. Their mouths were all opened wide, and they didn't even notice that the saliva was flowing down the corners of their mouths. Liu Fangyi looked at them contemptuously from a distance, and said to Shan Xiongxin beside him: "A group of uninformed rebels, they don't know how strong our Fanyang army is."
Although the bandits hadn't completely dispersed, they began to retreat involuntarily in the face of the spear formation of the county soldiers.
"Losing."
After another wave of bandits who mustered up their courage to charge forward were stabbed to death, the bandits began to retreat. When they fled, they made earth-shattering shouts, fearing that their voices were not loud enough.
Gaojibo's second leader managed to gather nearly 6,000 rebels and lined up in a battle formation, but was rushed into chaos by the retreating Taihang Mountain rebels in front.
Unwilling to be reconciled, Xiong Kuohai led nearly a thousand cavalrymen towards the county soldier phalanx. Liu Fangyi glanced at Shan Xiongxin and wanted to take his cavalry to meet him. Shan Xiongxin stopped him: "These counties The soldiers have never experienced fighting against cavalry, and the number of cavalry on the other side is not large, so this is a good opportunity for training."
After finishing speaking, Shan Xiongxin yelled loudly again: "The whole army obeys the order, and the hollow character phalanx is used to deal with the cavalry!"
"The third row goes back to the fast crossbow."
Shan Xiongxin no longer interfered in the following matters, and several county soldiers and captains would command themselves, and they issued loud orders sonorously and forcefully. When Xiong Kuohai led the cavalry to rush up, all the county soldiers from the third row behind
Holding a spear in his right hand, and a quick crossbow in his left hand.
"Shoot!"
"Shoot!"
A rain of arrows launched a violent attack on the cavalry led by Xiong Kuohai. Under the arrows, many cavalry screamed and fell off their horses, or fell directly to the ground after being hit by arrows from their horses, causing a commotion on the road. Bloody.
But the nearly thousand cavalry led by Xiong Kuohai were extremely ferocious, and rushed towards the county soldiers against the rain of arrows. any fear.
The cavalry was very fast, and the crossbow was too late to fire after two rounds.
"The first three rows of spearmen—squat!"
Following an order from a captain, the outermost spearmen knelt down on one knee, put their spears on the ground, and pointed them obliquely forward.
As soon as the three rows of county soldiers squatted down, Xiong Kuohai led the cavalry and rushed to the front of the county soldiers... But facing such a spear formation, it was like a rabbit facing a huddled hedgehog. There was no way to start, except for Xiong Kuohai who smashed back a few iron guns with an axe, killing a few county soldiers, the other bandits were helpless, especially when their horses were facing a pile of spear points, they instinctively dodged to the side .
"Shoot!"
The chief lieutenant of the county soldiers shouted loudly, and the county soldiers behind the three rows of spearmen immediately fired a volley with their crossbows. A dozen or so bandit cavalry rushed to the front and rolled off their horses amidst screams. The cavalry behind them rushed over from both sides of the phalanx.
"Shoot!"
The county soldiers in the middle of both sides of the phalanx also fired a volley with the sound of orders, and dozens of bandits fell to the ground again. More bandit horses rushed up the mountain from behind them, and drew two arcs around the county soldier phalanx, all the way to the side of the phalanx.
"Shoot!"
"Shoot!"
The county soldiers were divided into three phalanxes, forming a large "pin" character. The cavalry of Xiong Kuohai ran between the three hollow phalanxes, looking for flaws.
The three phalanxes of the county soldiers stood still, and the spearmen of the county soldiers on the periphery were close together, stabbing out their spears shoulder to shoulder, and hundreds of shining spear blades shone coldly in the sun , brighter than the stars in the night sky.
