"Puff ......"
The lifeless corpse fell headlong into the mud, and the wounded parts slowly oozed bright red blood to the ground, and before the blood could be stained red, it was trampled by several pairs of feet and mixed with the dirt.
The shouts and screams are always the main theme of the killing arena, and the collision of one's own body will always make a dull sound, and the metal weapon will always make a tooth-aching sound when it breaks through the skin and pierces the flesh, followed by a terrible or dying howl.
The 500 men led by Zhao Chong and Mibu have been carrying out Lu Zhe's orders, and under the guidance of the scouts, they have continued to advance smoothly. Originally, they thought that they would rush to the valley mouth to blockade smoothly, but they didn't expect to encounter a group of Baiyue people who were obviously marching halfway through the run.
The visibility in the forest was already low, and the rainy weather blurred the already short field of vision, and they were almost unprepared to run headlong into the marching Baiyue people. To be honest, no one reacted at that time, waiting for the Baiyue people to cry out, they had already penetrated into the Baiyue crowd that was scattered more widely.
This group of Baiyue people on the march seems to be a little dazed by the sudden appearance of a large number of strangers? They didn't see who they were at first, until they were almost through the line and realized that these people were from the Central Plains.
From the very beginning, there was no formation or coordination between the two sides, and the person who reacted first swung his weapon at the nearest enemy, and then the mixed battle began.
From the first time he brandished his weapon and slashed at someone, Zhao Chong, the leader of the team, was directly stunned for a moment, he originally wanted to control the situation, and mobilized his soldiers to distance himself from the Baiyue people, and continued to complete the initial task. As a result, he tried a few times and couldn't separate from the Baiyue people at all, so he could only fight together in a daze.
Most of the Baiyue people are not tall, generally about 1.6 meters, but their bodies are very flexible, and they will always take advantage of the complex forest environment to dodge like a cat jumping. The nimble body dodged the branches of the plant, then turned around like a thief, and then began to dodge again after a miss.
The 500 men who were the first to take on the front of them suffered dozens of casualties, but they also killed almost the same number of opponents. The fighting in the back developed into a grappling, and the soldiers of the forward gradually adapted to the tactics of the Baiyue people and slowly gained the advantage.
They found that although the Baiyue people were flexible, their strength was not very good, and most of the weapons of the Baiyue people were blunt weapons, and more and more forward soldiers relied on the tall and strong bodies to choose to stab the opponent to death with a spear, and the battle situation once had an advantage.
Later, more and more Baiyue people appeared, and the forwards, whose number had been reduced to less than 400 people, were entangled by almost twice the number of Baiyue people, and the battle situation was developing in the direction of a stalemate, and at this time, the brigade led by Lu Zhe arrived.
The forward troops were excited about the arrival of reinforcements, and they breathed a sigh of relief in their hearts and at the same time exerted their higher morale and fought hard, but the Baiyue people, who had not understood what was happening, were panicked.
After the reinforcements of the Central Plains appeared, one after another roaring and charging figures kept emerging from the grass, and the dense number simply frightened the Baiyue people. They beckoned each other to retreat, but they didn't expect that at this time, the early Central Plains people were entangled again, and most of the Baiyue people were even more panicked, and they left their companions and ran away.
Neither side on the battlefield knew what the other side would suddenly appear for, and the battle was not in anyone's plan from the beginning, and at this time, the Qin army, which had a clear goal, and the Baiyue people, who did not have any goal, began to tilt their will to fight.
It is not clear that Lu Zhe, who is already afraid of the Baiyue people and wants to run, directly issued a military order to "chisel through", not all the soldiers can hear the shouts during the run, their first choice is to rush up and fight with the Baiyue people, and if they can kill one by one, they will count one.
The so-called temporary mobilization and coordination on the battlefield means, to put it bluntly, that the troops that have not been put into the battlefield receive new orders and then carry them out.
Lu Zhe, who commanded the army for the first time, may have been negligent and did not leave reserves, he could only watch as his soldiers rushed up to fight with the Baiyue people, and did not advance at the fastest speed.
In the era of cold weapons, there has never been a thing that can be carried out by the troops under the command of the commander when the commander gives military orders, and in this era of relying on people to run to convey or war drums (horns) to issue orders, who can hear anything when the sound is mixed when the fight is mixed? Unless one side retreats, the scuffle will continue.
In fact, many things are due to accidents, and the addition of a new force only took a few breaths to defeat the frightened Baiyue people, and the battle situation appeared that the Qin army chased behind the retreating Baiyue people and covered up the situation.
Lu Zhe, who had never felt that he was not an invincible iron King Kong, did not participate in the fight, what he could do on the battlefield was to try to put himself in a safe position.
Lu Zhe, who was on the periphery, saw that the Baiyue people were constantly retreating towards the valley, and in an instant there was a feeling of surprise, and he couldn't help shouting loudly: "Catch up, catch up directly and block the valley mouth!" After letting the soldiers around him protect him shout, this order was finally spread by the soldiers who heard it, although the execution was still worrying, but nearly a thousand people heard it.
One side fled and the other chased, and the two gangs rushed into the valley one after another.
Lu Zhe watched his own people and horses chase and kill with extreme excitement and continue to rush into the valley, and his face turned black in an instant. He was thinking that if the retreating centaurs of Baiyue were a trap, then the people who rushed in were probably more than lucky. In this fear, he only kept shouting and gathering the soldiers, finally stopping more than a thousand people, and then began to carry out a short formation.
The noise coming from the valley was very loud, and it was impossible to tell what was going on inside for a while, so Lu Zhe could only send a few teams in to investigate while arranging the location of the gathered people.
As the commander, Lu Zhe knew that he couldn't act panicked, and although he was very worried about the troops under his command in the valley, he had a victorious expression on his face.
Learning from the previous mistake of not leaving a reserve, Lu Zhe left two hundred people as an emergency reserve this time. This side has just been planned, and someone from the reconnaissance team that went in just now came back to report.
Knowing that the people who rushed in met with very fierce resistance, but his own men and horses had advanced to the range of the Baiyue people's habitat complex, Lu Zhe's heart relaxed a little.
There was resistance and the advance showed that the Baiyue people did not set up an ambush, he thought about leaving 500 people to defend the valley mouth, and took the rest of the people to kill it.
As soon as Pu Yi entered the valley, after walking for a distance, he saw a destroyed wooden fence and many crooked horses, and some remnants of buildings such as arrow towers were still shooting cold arrows. Furthermore, there are pictures of their own men and horses chasing Baiyue people everywhere in front of them.
His own victory has been decided, but he doesn't know what Lu Dao is for, but Lu Zhe can't be happy.
He felt that this battle was well planned and the deployment was correct, but it was a matter of vigilance and consideration that an additional group of Baiyue people appeared and were not explored by the scouts.
The second is that the coordination of the troops can be described as chaotic, and the whole battle is almost advancing along the trend without any cooperation. Even chasing the rout into the valley from behind can only be regarded as a fluke, because there is no expectation in advance that there will be an encounter before attacking the valley. It is conceivable that if there was no such rout, then they would have crashed their heads in front of the camp in front of the valley and bled out, all of which was due to the poor reconnaissance!
"Intelligence...... Scout ......"
After reading it several times, Lu Zhe felt that his biggest gain this time might not be to complete the tactical goal, but to personally and intuitively understand the importance of intelligence and scouts!
There are some things that you can't understand without experiencing them firsthand. So knowing the Tao and experiencing it for yourself are two different things, really!
