Chapter 959: The Magnificent Power of Han (Eighty-Three)

The clear and crisp sound of the warring sound soared into the sky from the forest. Along with the explosion of the warping fire, the sound of howling feathers and arrows sounded in the forest. Countless flying feathers were shot out from the dense forest. The Qi army was caught off guard and suddenly lined up in a row. The discharge is reversed.

"Enemy attack!" A warning horn sounded immediately among the marching team.

The attackers chose the timing of the attack extremely cleverly. Just when the Qi army entered the ambush circle one-third of the way, the feather arrows, as dense as locusts, attacked the waist and abdomen of the Qi army, cutting the Qi army into two at once. part.

When Chen Tao heard the sound of singing, his face became extremely ugly. He knew that he had made a big mistake. When marching and fighting, there is a saying that there is no chance of encountering a forest. Even if you want to march through such an area, you should send out enough troops. The scouts found out the truth, and Chen Tao's mistake was caused by the previous mistake, that is, he misjudged the determination of his opponent's strength.

They are just rogue bandits. Their fighting force is limited. They are all under Gaotang City now, and there is still room to ambush them. What's more, Chen Tao doesn't think these rogue bandits have such tactical capabilities.

But reality slapped him hard. Not only did his opponent come, but he was caught off guard.

"Zhu Wei, you bastard!" Chen Tao cursed fiercely. If the main force of the Red Scarf Army is here, then the Red Scarf thieves under Gaotang City must be empty frames. There are tens of thousands of Red Scarf thieves. Zhu Wei, who was just a refugee among thousands of people, and had experienced many battles, was actually fooled by such a trick.

Although they were suddenly attacked, this Qi army was indeed the most powerful force under Tian Fucheng's command and responded very quickly. After the first round of arrows knocked down a group of people, the shields immediately closed up, and they were about to follow. The second round of arrow rain was blocked. The Qi army behind the shield immediately unfurled their bows and began to fight back in the forest. Although the enemy could not be seen, such attacks would mostly be blocked by the dense forest, but at least it had the advantage of restraining the opponent from attacking. They rushed out of the forest to buy time for the large troops to respond to the enemy.

The cavalry team at the forefront, which had crossed the encirclement, immediately rushed back.

Chen Tao was surrounded by layers of soldiers, and shields protected him firmly. Even the top of his head was covered with several shields. When he heard the sound of horse hooves, Chen Tao's expression changed, and his opponent let go After passing the cavalry, one would not fail to think that after the rear army is attacked, the cavalry will return to rescue them.

He waved his hand violently and pushed aside the shields above his head, and jumped on his horse. What caught his eyes was that his front cavalry dispersed their formation like the wind and rushed into the dense forest.

"Blow the trumpet and let them come back!" Chen Tao shouted sharply.

However, the cavalry reacted too quickly. Before the trumpet sounded, they almost rushed into the forest under the leadership of the general, and then screams were heard.

"Asshole, stupid pig!" Chen Tao scolded angrily.

In the forest, there were countless horse ropes tied high and low. Some of these horse ropes were as high as half a man, and some were hidden in the weeds. The cavalry wielded their swords to cut off the horse ropes, but they could not take care of the horses under their feet. The war horse fell to the ground, knocking the knights to the ground. Immediately, arrows flew out and nailed the knights to the ground one by one.

The first hundred or so cavalrymen rushed in, but only twenty or thirty cavalrymen escaped. In the blink of an eye, 80% of them were gone.

"Beat the drum, advance slowly with the shield soldiers as the lead, and crush them flatly." Chen Tao gave the order with a cold face.

Although he was attacked, Chen Tao still had strong confidence in the combat effectiveness of his soldiers. Pushing forward, he was still confident of defeating his opponent as long as he entered into hand-to-hand combat.

In the forest, the tiger's head climbed on a big tree, looking a hundred steps away. In a very short time, he reorganized his team and slowly advanced the Qi army. He couldn't help but nodded. He was indeed an elite division. .However, when they encountered the troops under his command, they were doomed to be in bad luck. Although he only had 1,500 men under his command, most of the veterans of the entire army were here, including those brought by Bai Yucheng from western Liaoning. Special Forces Brigade.

With a chuckle, he slipped down from the tree and said, "Brothers, I will serve you with great courtesy!"

There were shouts in the forest, and human heads wearing red scarves appeared in Chen Tao's eyes. These red scarf thieves looked at them, and the killing intent in their eyes made Chen Tao shiver for no reason.

His pupils shrank slightly, Chen Tao took a deep breath, took out the sword from his waist, holding the cold handle in his hand, and then drove away the chill from his heart.

The rows of shrubs in front of the Red Scarf Army suddenly fell down. Looking at the objects exposed by the fallen shrubs, the blood in Chen Tao's body was almost completely frozen. They were bed crossbows, rows of bed crossbows.

Oh my God, where did these Red Scarf Army get so many bed crossbows and transport them here? How long have they been waiting for them here?

Chen Tao's mind almost went blank at this moment, and the unique screaming sound of the bed crossbow woke him up from his somewhat sluggish state.

The bed crossbow flew in, and the bed crossbow within a hundred steps was almost indestructible. The shield soldiers in the front row were tightly packed together at the moment. The slow-moving formation made them easy targets for the bed crossbow, and the huge torn apart The sound of cracking shook Chen Tao's eardrums. The bed crossbow tore the large shield apart effortlessly. With a shrill sound of wind, it mercilessly shot the soldiers behind the shield to the ground one after another, knocking out the neatly arranged troops. The shape is torn to pieces.

With a bang, a crossbow with blood splattered over Chen Tao's head, scaring the guards around him and throwing him to the ground. The crossbow shot through several Qi soldiers along the way. The entire crossbow shaft was covered with blood. Just by passing over their heads, their bodies were covered with blood.

The crossbow was heavy and was basically used to defend the city.

"Kill!" The crossbow came, and the Red Turban Army rushed out of the woods. The leader, holding a nine-ring broadsword that made a rattling sound when it was shaken, roared and rushed towards the Qi army.

Torn by the crossbow The front of the Qi army, which was in a state of disarray, had not yet reacted when the Red Turban Army rushed into the formation. In an instant, bloody storms became the mainstream of the field. How could the Qi army resist the soldiers of Hutou and the special brigade as the vanguard?

Looking at the scene of blood and flesh flying in the vanguard and the scene of being overwhelmed in an instant, Chen Tao's soul finally returned to his body.

"Retreat, retreat!" He shouted loudly. He was suddenly attacked and suffered blows one after another. His morale was lost. Now he believed that what Zhu Wei said about the amazing combat effectiveness of the Red Turban Army was a fact.

Now that the initiative was lost, he could only seek to retreat , preserve strength, and then look for an opportunity to contact Zhu Wei, and then plot to fight the Red Turban Bandits.

On the top of Yinpen Mountain, Zhao Yian was nervously watching the battle scene in the distance. This was the first time that these staff officers had completely planned a battle. Whether this fire could be started and whether it could burn vigorously would represent their position and future in the army. Although they had the strong support of the King of Han, if they did not have outstanding results, they would never be convinced. In the army, the most convincing thing in the end was still your personal ability. This ability was the courage to win a battle thousands of miles away. It can also be the wisdom of strategizing.

Seeing that the Qi army generals finally made the decision to retreat, and the direction of retreat was indeed Shiqiaoping, my heart finally settled down, and the big thing was settled.

"Let's go to Taipingdian!" Zhao Yian stood up excitedly and said to the group of staff behind him: "These Qi soldiers are still in shock. After being blocked by Wei Zhiwen again in Shiqiaoping, they will definitely have no intention of fighting and retreat to Taipingdian again. Where is Lord Bai waiting for him? They have retreated again and again. When they get there, they are already at the end of their strength. Even if they want to run, they can't run away. We are all from the army. After that, we haven't fought for a long time. Are you itching to fight?"

"Of course we are!" A group of staff officers laughed.

"Okay, let's go to Taipingdian and satisfy our desire to fight. I'm afraid that the bloody battles on the battlefield will be farther and farther away from us in the future." Zhao Yian went to Taipingdian in a flash.

Two days have passed under Gaotang City. Tens of thousands of refugees are digging and piling up soil like ants every day, approaching Gaotang City little by little. Zhu Wei in the city is also getting more and more anxious, because he suddenly discovered that the daily work of these refugees is not without plan and purpose, but It was very targeted. Obviously, the commander of these refugees was a siege expert.

If the reinforcements had not arrived when they launched the attack, Gaotang City would have been in real danger. The riots in the city were temporarily calmed down because Wang Yan went on a killing spree. After raiding the homes of two wealthy landlords in succession, the others finally bowed their heads under the blade and obediently took out the food stored in their homes. Although the people in the city could only buy a fixed amount of pitiful rice and flour every day, they would not starve to death.

But Zhu Wei knew that such a situation would only allow Gaotang City to survive for a few more days. .

Outside the city, Hengdao was leading the construction of siege ramps and siege equipment, which had been accelerated. When Zhu Wei was still in the dark, he had received a military intelligence report from Yinpen Mountain. The reinforcements of the Qi army had been surrounded by the troops led by Bai Houye in Taipingdian, and their demise was imminent.

The siege ramp had reached the final stage, and this last section had to be paid for with lives, because it had entered the range of long-range weapons on the city. And this must be done by experienced soldiers. If these refugees were to do it, the sacrifice would be too great.

On the third night, Hengdao finally waited for Bai Yucheng's return. After Chen Tao was ambushed by Wei Zhian for the second time in Shiqiaoping, he fled all the way to Taipingdian without resistance. The continuous escape exhausted their last strength. Here, they were blocked by Bai Yucheng. The two armies of Hutou and Wei Zhian arrived at the right time. The three armies attacked together and surrounded Chen Tao. Chen Tao put up a final resistance. After one day, the whole army was destroyed. Even Chen Tao was captured alive after being injured and brought to the city of Gaotang. (To be continued...) R1292
