Military Kill Ripper felt like he was having a nightmare, and he wanted to wake up from it as soon as possible.
When Di Chen told him that there was a chance to plot against Say Wuyi, Military Kill Ripper was so ecstatic. Military Kill Ripper could not forget how Say Wuyi humiliated him in public during the Battle of Zhuolu, saying that he was just a dog of Di Chen. This kind of humiliation was even worse than killing him.
What was more miserable than being insulted? It was being scolded until you were speechless. It was being scolded to the point, and you had nothing to say in response. Military Kill Ripper had been humiliated in this way.
Hatred could make a person lose his mind. Military Kill Ripper had undoubtedly been swallowed by hatred.
Military Kill Ripper did not even think about why Di Chen did not do it himself, but instead looked for him. He did not even discuss it with his family, and directly led the 2,000 elites of his territory to teleport to Evernight Town.
He wanted to start his journey of vengeance, burning his soul of vengeance!
In the beginning, the battle was so smooth. They hid all the way, went out at night, and went to the enemy camp without being discovered. Even if there were some small accidents, the battle was still in their favor.
The allied forces smoothly rushed into the enemy camp and killed wantonly. Military Kill Ripper saw the soldiers of Shanhai County fall into pools of blood one after another. At that time, how carefree and satisfied he was!
Military Kill Ripper even began to fantasize that after wiping out the troops in the camp, maybe he could lead the allied forces to continue to attack the main camp of Shanhai County, and make Say Wuyi crawl under his feet. Yes, that should be it. Let Say Wuyi beg for mercy, and let him know who the despicable dog was.
However, when did the battle begin to turn around?
The speed at which the enemy gathered was beyond the allied forces' imagination. The enemy's individual strength was also much stronger than what the allied forces had expected. Those despicable barbarians did not wear armor, but they could still fight with the elite soldiers of the allied forces.
Victory was so short, and the killing was unstoppable. When the enemy's heavy infantry converged, Military Kill Ripper knew that the period of taking advantage of them was over. Next, it would be a tough battle.
Even at this time, Military Kill Ripper still believed that victory was in his hands, because after the attack on the camp, the allied forces' strength was already twice that of the enemy. As long as the command was right, there was no reason for them to lose.
Military Kill Ripper commanded the allied forces to set up a formation outside the camp and took the initiative to attack. Because of this, Army Kill Ripper didn't hesitate to line up the elite cavalry he had brought with him at the very front of the group to act as the spearhead.
Unfortunately, the enemy's heavy infantry was a resounding slap to the face. Shanhai County had spared no expense in building the Iron Armor Army, and it was not something that light cavalry could shake.
Then, the ambush of the enemy cavalry gave Military Kill Ripper another heavy blow.
Military Kill Ripper wasn't discouraged. He still believed that victory would be his. He was calm and collected, boosting the morale of the troops and commanding them calmly. He ordered some of the sword and shield troops to retreat and defend, while he ordered the rest of the sword and shield troops to continue advancing, trying to take down the enemy's heavy infantry.
Victory was just around the corner, but Who Says Wuyi, this demon, actually barged in at the crucial moment with a heavily armored cavalry that caused people to tremble with fear. The enemy only relied on five hundred heavy-armored cavalrymen to pin down the main force of the allied forces, which was three to four times the size of the allied forces. They split up the sword-and-shield troops and left them with no time to pay attention to anything else.
What followed was a nightmare for Military Kill Ripper.
First, the archer troops of the allied forces were completely defeated. They scattered and fled in all directions, and in the end, they shamefully surrendered. Immediately after, the cavalry troops that Military Kill Ripper was so proud of were also completely devoured by the enemy's steel monsters. Only one or two hundred lucky ones managed to break through the defensive line and escape.
Finally, the allied forces completely collapsed.
Facing the pincer attack of the enemy's heavy cavalry and heavy infantry, the sword and shield troops that had been bitterly holding on finally collapsed and surrendered. The soldiers knew very well that they, the infantry, could not escape the pursuit of the enemy's cavalry. The archer troops that had escaped were the best proof.
The feudal lords had long lost all hope. After the cavalry was destroyed, they immediately fled with their personal guards. All of their courage and conviction had been completely destroyed in this battle, leaving nothing behind.
They had gambled everything, but in the end, they were completely annihilated.
The feudal lords were so frightened that they even forgot to inform the eastern allied forces of the situation on the alliance channel. This caused the latter to be successfully ambushed by the 3rd Brigade.
Military Kill Ripper was about to look down on these cowardly bastards, but when he turned around, he realised that he was also a member of the escaping army. The escaping cavalry found their own feudal lords and escaped towards Eternal Night Town together.
Ouyang Shuo was undoubtedly furious. He did not expect to be bitten by the insects that he had raised for half a year. He had never thought that he would let these feudal lords return to his territory alive.
When Ouyang Shuo saw Military Kill Ripper appear in the allied forces, he knew that there was no longer any possibility of reconciliation between him and the Yan Huang Alliance. It was either you die or I live.
Ouyang Shuo let Shi Wansui stay behind to take care of the captives, the wounded and the camp. He himself brought his personal guards and the 3rd Battalion of the 1st Brigade and continued to chase the enemy.
On the eastern outskirts of Pool Water County, about 15 kilometers away from the border, there was a small hill. Apart from weeds, there was not even a single shrub on the hill. This was the ambush location that E Lai had chosen. All the soldiers of the 3rd Brigade and the 2nd Battalion of the 2nd Brigade were lying in ambush behind the hill, waiting for the fish to take the bait.
The leader of Duanren Town, Ba Dao, led the 2,000 soldiers of the allied forces and did not meet any obstacles along the way. From time to time, they would come across one or two bandit camps. Facing the mighty army, the bandits wisely chose to be cowards. They all hid in the bandit camps and did not dare to show themselves.
Because of the smooth journey, Ba Dao started to let down his guard. He did not even arrange for the vanguard to scout ahead.
"Brother Dao, don't you think it's strange? We've been walking for so long, why haven't we seen a single patrolling soldier? Could it be a trap? "The leader of the Gushan Town felt a little uneasy.
Ba Dao shook his head, "You're thinking too much. Did you notice that there are still bandit camps in this area? What does that mean? It means that Shanhai County has not had the time to clear this area. Naturally, they did not arrange for patrolling soldiers. Otherwise, if we were targeted by the bandits, wouldn't we be sending ourselves to their deaths? "Ba Dao's explanation was reasonable.
He went up to the stage to pay his respects and thought that it made sense, so he didn't let his imagination run wild.
Behind the hill, Liao Kai, the battalion commander of the Third Brigade's Third Battalion, came up to E Lai and said, "Brigade Commander, they're here!"
E Lai rode on the domineering Nian Rakshasa and said in a deep voice, "Prepare to move!"
"Yes!"
When the eastern allied forces reached the middle of the hill, two cavalry battalions, a total of 1,000 cavalrymen, suddenly appeared at the top of the hill like a group of grassland ghosts. Without the slightest hesitation, they swooped down the hill.
Following closely behind the cavalrymen was the archer battalion of the Third Brigade. They set up temporary positions at the top of the hill and rained arrows down on the allied forces at the foot of the hill. They suppressed the archers of the allied forces and provided suppressive fire for the cavalry's charge.
The rain of arrows drew beautiful arcs from the high ground and accurately landed in the area where the archers of the allied forces were. When the arrows reached the top of the soldiers' heads, they were already falling vertically, as if they were falling from the sky. They pierced through the air and let out sharp whistles as they sank into the enemy's head or shoulder. Those who were shot in the head naturally died immediately. Those who were lucky enough to be shot in the shoulder let out painful screams. They could not even lift their entire arm. If they were not treated in time, it was very likely that they would be permanently disabled.
The sudden attack caught the allied forces off guard. They did not expect that they would be attacked at this time and place.
Ba Dao was shocked and shouted in panic, "Get into formation, get into formation quickly." The sword and shield troops in the middle turned around in panic and prepared to turn to the flank to form a line of defense for the troops.
Everything was too late. Before the sword and shield troops of the allied forces could change their formation and before the soldiers could raise their shields, the cavalry had already used the acceleration of the downhill to rush down like a hurricane.
The cavalry troops that were charging at high speed formed a long line that covered the sky and covered the earth. It immediately scattered the allied forces' formation. The soldiers at the front were forced to retreat while the soldiers at the back were still carrying out the commander's order and rushed forward. The two troops clashed with each other and pushed each other, causing the army's formation to become more and more chaotic.
At this moment, the 1st, 2nd, and 4th Battalions of the 3rd Brigade made a turn from the back of the hill and appeared behind the allied forces, giving them a kick in the butt.
The barbarian warriors cooperated with the spearmen to attack the enemy. The chaotic allied forces could not coordinate at all. The command system was completely ineffective. The soldiers fought for themselves and fell into the enemy's encirclement. In the end, they were fighting alone. On the other hand, the 3rd Brigade's formation was neat and uniform. The soldiers advanced and retreated according to the rules and were decisive in killing. Coupled with the cavalry's coordination, they quickly took the initiative on the battlefield and firmly suppressed the enemy.
The cavalry of the allied forces were originally at the front of the troops, but at this moment, they were completely useless. If they charged forward, there was no one in front. If they charged backward, their path was blocked by the sword and shield troops. Suddenly, the cavalry commander had an idea and ordered the troops to charge up the hill, preparing to kill the archer battalion on the hill.
It was easy to go down the hill, but difficult to go up. The archer battalion on the hill was not afraid at all. They aimed at the cavalry and fired volleys after volleys. The archer battalion commander was calm and collected. He ordered the soldiers to focus on shooting the warhorses. The warhorses that were shot fell to the ground in pain, blocking the cavalry's path and affecting the cavalry's advance.
The archers shot three volleys of arrows on the short journey up the hill. The cavalry suffered heavy losses. Less than two hundred of the five hundred cavalry were left. The cavalry finally charged up the hill with great difficulty. Just as they were about to reap the fruits of victory, a fierce general suddenly appeared in front of the archer battalion riding a ferocious beast covered in dark green scales. (To be continued.)
