"Have the soldiers been replenished?"
"All three of them have been added, and none of them are missing!”
"Have the cavalrymen gathered?”
"The three guards have formed a cavalry unit of 1,500 cavalry. They are already moving to the side of the Dengzhou Prefecture Army and are ready to charge at any moment!”
"That's good!"
In the frontline command center, the commander of the First Guard, Liu Yuan, who was also the overall commander of this battle, raised his right hand and waved heavily as he listened to the staff officers."Listen to my order, counterattack!”
Following Commander Liu Yuan's order, it was passed down to the guards, the thousand and hundred households.
On the defensive line, all the Weihai Army soldiers walked out and began to form a battle formation.
The swordsmen and shieldmen were in front, the pikemen were behind, the archers were on the two wings, and the cavalry were on the far side, eyeing the enemy like a tiger watching its prey. They marched in unison towards the main camp of the Dengzhou Prefecture Army.
Fifteen thousand elite soldiers walked out of the defense line, creating a huge commotion.
It immediately alerted the Dengzhou Prefecture Army.
In the command tent of the main camp.
"Commander, something bad has happened. Nearly 15,000 elite soldiers of the Weihai Guards have walked out of the defense line and are in formation. They are approaching our camp.”
The messenger's words shook the entire tent.
" What did you say?!"
When the commander of the Dengzhou Guards heard the messenger's words, he stood up in shock and shouted. Then, he ran out of the tent crazily and walked to the high ground. He took out a telescope and looked into the distance.
On the flat ground in the distance, there were a few huge square formations and a dense group of people. All of them were elite soldiers in armor and helmets. There were 15,000 of them. They marched in an orderly manner toward the Dengzhou Army camp with murderous intent.
"Why aren't their forces reduced? How can you replenish it so quickly?" The commander of the Dengzhou Guards was shocked. They were not only shocked by the huge formation, but also by the Weihai Army's replenishment ability.
After a few days of intense battle, he could clearly feel the huge difference in combat strength between his Dengzhou Prefecture Army and the Weihai Army.
If it wasn't for the fact that he spared no expense and sent a large number of farmers to the battlefield, he wouldn't have been able to fight the Wei Sea Army.
But even so, after four days of battle, the loss of nearly ten thousand people had almost caused the Dengzhou Prefecture Army under his command to suffer severe injuries. The most terrifying thing was that they had suffered close to ten thousand casualties, but they had not made any progress. They were blocked in front of the Tangquan Town defense line and could not take a step forward.
He had not even seen the walls of Tangquan Town not far away!
This progress made him despair.
However, at this moment, the Weihai Army had actually replenished the soldiers they had lost in a short period of time. It seemed that their combat strength had not decreased at all. Instead, because of the replenishment of soldiers and weapons, their morale had soared.
He was a little shocked!
There was no harm without comparison. Compared to his side, they had almost sold everything to gather 50,000 soldiers. After losing 10,000 soldiers, not only did they not replenish their soldiers, but they also did not replenish their armaments.
Many soldiers didn't even have a metal saber or a wooden spear.
The difference in strength was obvious. It was too great!
He didn't know how to fight this battle.!
"Commander, what should we do?!”The thousand-man beside him asked anxiously.
The commander of the Dengzhou Guards was furious when he heard this."If you ask me what to do, who should I ask?!”
"All of you, hold on and defend the entire line. If we can't hold on and lose the battle, the magistrate won't let us off!”
The thousand households looked at each other, their expressions difficult.
Their morale was low, and their soldiers and weapons were not replenished. How were they supposed to fight?!
Although the soldiers were inexperienced, they were not easily fooled. They knew how to see with their eyes.
They had attacked fiercely for four days in a row, but they were all forced back. They had never charged into the enemy's defense line, not even once!
They had truly witnessed the combat strength of the Weihai Guards that were slandered by the Dengzhou Prefecture. These were all ruthless characters!
The elite equipment and tenacious fighting will of the man had opened their eyes and shocked them.
At this moment, when morale was already low, the enemy had actually recovered and was attacking with all their might.
How could they fight this?
No matter how they fought, they couldn't win!
Many of the Dengzhou Prefecture soldiers started to panic!
Especially the core members, the elite soldiers.
The elite soldiers were all veterans and had seen many things. When there was a chance of victory, their combat strength was extremely valiant. However, when there was no hope of victory, their eyes began to roll.
Most of them were military families and hated those rich merchants the most because they took up too much of their land. As for the will to fight for these rich merchants, it was not as strong.
If they were willing to fight, they would have spoils of war to snatch.
There was money to earn and women to play with.
But now, all of these were gone, and they even had to pay with their lives. Where was the will to fight?!
He wanted to turn around and run immediately.
He heard the commander and the thousand-men shouting,"Brothers, hold on!" All of them rolled their eyes.
F * ck you!
You guys get the money, we'll do the hard work. How can there be such a good thing?!
If it wasn't for the supervision team eyeing them from behind, many elite soldiers would have turned around and fled.
"Kill!"
"Kill, kill, kill!"
"Advance, advance, advance!”
"Disrupt their formation and destroy them!”
“.....”
The Weihai Army first launched three waves of arrows, then the sword-shield soldiers charged forward and cut down the Dengzhou Prefecture soldiers in front of them.
The pikemen launched their attacks in an orderly fashion, stabbing the tough bones to the ground.
The Weihai Guards had an endless supply of soldiers. However, the Dengzhou Prefecture Army realized that they had fewer and fewer comrades around them. They kept retreating, and in the end, they looked around and realized that they were surrounded by enemies of the Weihai Army.
His mentality instantly collapsed!
"We won't fight anymore, we won't fight anymore. Brothers, we can't beat them, let's run!”
"The Weihai Army is too powerful. We can't beat them!”
"Run!"
“.....”
A group of seasoned soldiers who had long seen that the situation was not good and wanted to escape saw this opportunity and shouted loudly, urging the ignorant recruits to escape.
It had to be said that the recruits did not know anything. They were very silly and naive, and were especially easy to be incited. Looking at the situation around him, he realized that he really couldn't beat them. Then what was the point of fighting? Run!
Then, he was slashed to the ground by the supervising team behind. The people of the supervising team shouted,"Hold on, hold on for me. Whoever dares to take another step back will be killed without mercy!”
"F * ck you!"
The aggressive supervising team members were cut down by the seasoned soldiers who suddenly rushed up. The seasoned soldiers attacked one after another, and the terrifying supervising team members all fell to the ground.
"Brothers, if we don't run now, when will we?!”
The seasoned soldiers waved their hands and greeted them. They threw away their helmets and armor, turned around, and ran. This caused the eyes of the recruits to light up. They followed suit and cut down the supervising team that was blocking the rear path, threw away their helmets and armor, and fled.
As more and more people cut down the supervising troops behind them and fled, the situation was almost irreparable. A great defeat was about to happen.
"Commander, we can't hold on anymore. Let's run!”The Thousand Households watching from the back persuaded.
The commander of the Dengzhou Guards sighed,"You've misled me!"!”
His body, however, was very honest as he mounted his horse and skillfully steered it, fleeing a thousand miles away.
"Lord Commander, Lord Thousand Households has fled!”
The sound of grievous news instantly made all the Dengzhou Prefecture Army lose their will to resist. The entire Dengzhou Prefecture Army completely collapsed and turned to run. A great defeat occurred.
"Cavalry Battalion, charge!"
The 1,500 cavalry who had been eyeing him from afar, seeing this scene, how could they let this opportunity go?!
One thousand five hundred cavalry galloped towards the defeated soldiers of Dengzhou Prefecture.
How could two legs outrun four legs?!
The Dengzhou Prefecture Army, which had gathered together and had a huge target, was crushed by the cavalry. Countless Dengzhou Prefecture Army soldiers threw away their helmets and armor and knelt down to surrender.
"The Dengzhou Prefecture Army is finished!"
In the rear, Commander Liu Yuan smiled and put down his telescope. He said to the staff officer beside him,""Send a message to the Weihai Guards and inform my lord that our army fought fiercely with the Dengzhou Prefecture Army at Tangquan Town's defense line for four days. On the fifth day, we launched a full-scale counterattack and defeated the Dengzhou Prefecture Army on the spot.”
"We have completed the strategic goal of eliminating the resistance forces of the Dengzhou Prefecture and threatening the safety of our territory!”
