Chapter 911 Ji Ling’s Army Arrives
Hu Yandu was ready soon. He had already selected nearly a hundred ordinary horses from the horses. After receiving Huang Wudie's order, he immediately ordered people to cover the eyes of all the horses with cloth. If there was enough time, he would also tie long spears and other weapons on the horses' bodies and heads. Unfortunately, time did not allow him to do so.
After everything was ready, dozens of cavalry drove the nearly a hundred horses towards the direction of Yuan Shu's army. In order to prevent the horses from changing directions, dozens of cavalry helped drive the horses on both sides so that the hundred horses could rush to Yuan Shu's army smoothly.
Seeing that the horses had begun to approach the army more than a hundred steps away, Hu Yandu immediately ordered people to blow the horn. Hearing the horn, Chen Jing and Dian Zi immediately ordered the soldiers to retreat to both sides to make way for the hundred horses to pass through. With the rumbling of horse hooves, more than a hundred horses ran faster and faster, rushing towards Yuan Shu's army like arrows.
In the army formation, Ji Bao stared at the hundreds of horses approaching from a distance, and shouted in shock: "Hold on, form a dense defensive formation, and hold on!" At the end, his voice was so shrill that it didn't sound like a human voice.
Yuan Shu's soldiers also reacted to his roar. The soldiers facing the direction of the horses quickly gathered and prepared to form a thicker defensive shield wall, but a distance of a hundred steps was just a matter of a moment for the horses. When Yuan Shu's thick shield wall had not yet been formed, the horses had already rushed in front of them.
"Boom..."
"Boom boom..."
One after another, the horses directly hit the shield wall of Yuan Shu's army. Dozens of heavily armored soldiers were hit by hundreds of thousands of horses and flew out like toys, and then fell on the soldiers in the formation, and knocked the soldiers in the formation to the ground.
More than a hundred horses knocked a gap of dozens of steps in Yuan Shu's army formation. After all the remaining horses crashed into the army formation, the soldiers of the Iron Wall Camp and the Iron Eagle Warriors who were watching the battle on the side quickly rushed into the formation through the gap created by the horses, and killed the panicked Yuan Shu soldiers, who threw away their armor and fled in a panic.
At this time, Huang Wudie also led more than 10,000 troops to arrive. Seeing this situation, Huang Wudie could not miss this opportunity. With her order, the army immediately followed the two elite troops and rushed into the Yuan Shu army formation, turning the inside upside down.
After the An Dong army rushed into the Yuan Shu army formation, they quickly followed Huang Wudie's order and attacked the Yuan Shu army around them in units of tun, qu, and tuan.
It only took a cup of tea for the army's formation to be broken by the coalition's horses and for most of the coalition to break into the formation. The sudden change made many generals of Yuan Shu's army stunned. Fortunately, Ji Bao had fought with Ji Ling for many years and reacted quickly. He also knew that Ji Ling's army should be very close to him. He only needed to hold on for another half an hour or even a quarter of an hour, and Ji Ling's tens of thousands of elite troops would appear.
"Quick, order each unit to fight in groups and divisions, and tell the soldiers that the general's reinforcements are already five miles away. We only need to hold on for a quarter of an hour, and the general's tens of thousands of elite soldiers will be able to reach the battlefield. Quick! Immediately! Immediately!" Ji Bao grabbed the personal guard commander beside him and shouted loudly;
The personal guard commander of Yuan Shu's army was finally awakened by Ji Bao's roar. Seeing Ji Bao's hysterical roar, he finally reacted and quickly sent out several messengers around him, and quickly formed hundreds of elite heavy infantry around him into a more powerful and tighter circle formation, surrounding Ji Bao and other generals.
Ji Bao's reaction was very timely. Although the defense of Yuan Shu's army was breached, less than 30% of the soldiers were actually involved in the melee, and most of the others had not yet engaged in battle with the Anton army. Therefore, after receiving Ji Bao's military order, the first to react were the thousands of heavy infantry, who quickly formed small formations of hundreds of people. After seeing the reaction of the heavy infantry, the rest of the soldiers also reacted one after another and formed formations under the orders of the generals of various departments.
Soon, nearly 10,000 troops of the Anton army all poured into the military formation of Yuan Shu's army, led by the most elite Iron Wall Camp and Iron Eagle Sharp Soldiers. Seeing that Yuan Shu's army had already assembled into small formations, Dian Zi and Chen Jing immediately led the soldiers to kill Yuan Shu's army. Seeing that the heavy infantry had already formed a formation, the two of them bypassed it directly. When they met other ordinary soldiers, the two led their troops to kill them, a typical bully of the weak and fear of the strong.
The reason for this is that both of them understand that Ji Ling's army is already close at hand, and they no longer have time to bite the hard bones of those heavy infantry. They can only use the limited time to kill and injure as many soldiers of Yuan Shu's army as possible to gain more advantages for the subsequent battles.
Yuan Shu's soldiers heard the hope of survival in Ji Bao's order. More and more soldiers formed a formation with the Zepao around them and fought desperately. They knew that they only needed to hold on for a while, and perhaps the next moment, tens of thousands of troops of the general would arrive.
So, on the battlefield that was several miles wide, there were people shouting and horses neighing everywhere, smoke and dust rolling, and tens of thousands of soldiers from the two armies were divided into countless battle groups fighting desperately. There was blood and flesh flying everywhere, and the swords flashed. The soldiers on both sides were fighting desperately.
However, the god of luck still stood on the side of Yuan Shu's army. A quarter of an hour later, Huang Wudie, who was fighting hard, was found by a general under Hu Yandu. He came to report the news.
"General Huang, the scouts sent a message that Ji Ling's army was found five miles away, with about 50,000 to 60,000 people. General Huyan asked General Huang to make a decision as soon as possible."
Five miles away, 50,000 to 60,000 troops. If the army travels lightly, it will take a little more than a quarter of an hour to arrive. It is difficult for Huang Wudie to decide whether to fight or retreat.
Retreat. Now that he has entered Yuan Shu's army, he can annihilate the 30,000 troops here with a little more effort. Fight, but if he delays for a moment, when Ji Ling's 50,000 to 60,000 troops arrive, not only will his own army of more than 10,000 be in danger, but his lord's thousands of guards will also be trapped here. You must know that these are the most elite troops under the Anton Army.
After a long time, she sighed and ordered: "Order the army to retreat in turns!"
"Dangdang..."
As a series of noises sounded, the soldiers of the Anton Army were stunned, but they quickly reacted. One by one, the soldiers slowly retreated outside the formation under the cover of their robes. Of course, if any of the Yuan Shu Army dared to take the opportunity to stop them, they would be strangled by several Anton Army troops around them. After several Yuan Shu Army soldiers were strangled, no Yuan Shu Army soldier dared to easily stop them. After all, the number of Anton Army soldiers was far greater than that of Yuan Shu Army.
