In the downpour, when the natives rushed out of the depths of the rainforest, roaring and attacking the Tang army, the Tang army, which was originally highly morale, was instantly in an extremely dangerous situation.

At this moment, the entire army was soaked like a chicken. The remaining 298 musketeers, the guns of each musketeer in their hands, were like drainage pipes, and water was flowing outwards, and there was no combat power.

At this critical moment, Chen Yiti, the chief general of the Tang army, yelled and issued an emergency order.

"Damn it! Following our military orders, all the Feiyazi cavalry retreated immediately and retreated to the Sanbaoyan camp for help. In addition, the entire army formed a round tortoise shell battle formation and lined up to fight the enemy!"

"Get orders!"

Chen Yiti gave an order, and a hundred Feijiazi cavalry braved the heavy rain and took advantage of the enemy's troops' attacks, they quickly pulled their horses back and galloped westward.

In this slightly broad area, the Tang army formed a nearly round tortoise shell formation in a very short time.

All the shield soldiers lined up at the outermost point, with a large shield stuck to the ground obliquely, and half-squatted on the ground, pressing their shoulders against the shield, forming a circular outer ring guard.

Then, on each large shield, a spearman was ready to sprint. The 4-meter steel spear with a cold light was lightly placed above the large shield, like poisonous snakes that were preparing to attack.

The 298 musketeers who had completely lost their battle were surrounded by the remaining snatchers to protect them.

The chief general Chen Yiti and his twenty-man guards were squeezed in the middle.

The rigorous training and rich war experience of the Tang army have played a good effect here. They quickly formed a formation and finally formed a tightly defended tortoise shell formation before the natives rushed over.

"Bang!"

A dull sound came from the heavy rain, and the Majingdanu natives and the Tang army's ring-shaped large shield tortoise shell formation collided fiercely.

At this moment, about dozens of indigenous people who could not hold back could not see the spikes on the opposite shield in the heavy rain, and then twitched and died, like frogs strung together.

A 4-meter steel spear was like a flying poisonous dragon, stabbing out from one side of the big shields, piercing the head, neck, or chest of these unexpected Majingdanu natives. These Tang army spearmen were extremely fierce and accurate, and when they stabbed out with one shot, they often pierced each other.

With one blow, a large number of natives immediately reached the end of their lives. Their bodies, along this entire array of large shields, were also stacked into a terrifying ring of corpses.

The natives attacked for a while, and except for leaving more than 400 corpses, they only killed more than twenty Tang army gun and shield soldiers. The Tang army's tortoise shell formation seemed to have taken root and could not impact at all.

Chen Yiti, the chief general of the Tang army, who was closely protected in the center, wiped a handful of rain on his face and showed a smug smile on his face.

Humph, you wild natives have tasted the power of my Tang army battle formation.

If you have the ability, you can continue to attack forward and see how many troops you have, which can fill our army's tortoise shell formation.

However, Chen Yiti's smile quickly froze.

He saw that the natives had been unable to capture for a long time, so they left hundreds of corpses and began to retreat to a position where the spearmen could not attack. Outside the Tang Army's tortoise shell formation, a larger ring was formed again, surrounding the Tang Army.

Chen Yiqi was shocked. Why did these natives no longer continue to fight with themselves, but they just surrounded them like this?

While hesitating, he suddenly found that there were large groups of natives coming from afar, and on their backs and hands were carrying or carrying large bundles of spears.

Chen Yiti's face turned pale in an instant.

"The natives who have dogs are going to throw a spear, please pay attention to defense!" Chen Zilong hissed.

Hearing the shouts of the chief general Chen Yiti, Tang Jun suddenly became extremely nervous, and many people showed extreme fear on their faces.

Everyone knew that the enemy soldiers threw darts like this and accurately hit the Tang army's weakness.

The shield soldiers on the edge are fine with shield defense, but the gun soldiers in the middle are all wearing iron-breasted armor, and their defense is also good. The worst thing is that the 298 musketeers, who have almost no armor, can be said to have been slaughtered without any fire sticks when the musketeers become fire sticks.

At this moment, there were continuous shouts like wild beasts outside, hundreds of darts, with sharp roars, passing through the heavy rain curtains, crossing the outermost large shields, and throwing them hard towards the center of the Tang army.

Although the spearmen outside kept pulling down the spears and shooting them with their spears, there were still at least twenty musketeers or spearmen in their bodies, and the continuous screams suddenly and quickly sounded from the Tang army formation.

These spears were all poisoned. Even if the person who was shot was not shot into the vital point, they would never survive. The Tang soldiers who were shot by the spears soon turned black and died with convulsions.

Soon, another round of raids came, and more than twenty Tang soldiers died screaming.

Seeing that his subordinates were viciously attacked by these ugly men with raids but could not fight back, the chief general of the Tang army, Chen Yiti, gritted his teeth with hatred.

"A barbarian who is a dog, Grandpa will one day kill you all the ugly people, regardless of gender, age, and age!"

A personal guard leaned over and asked in a low voice: "Captain Chen, now our army is being beaten passively, which will greatly damage morale. We will not give orders to let the entire army retreat quickly and strive to break out a bloody road."

After hearing what the personal soldiers said, Chen Yiqi was moved, but slowly shook his head.

He knew that the most important thing about this tortoise shell formation was not moving like a mountain and defending the enemy quietly. If it moved, its power would be greatly reduced and it would be very likely to be knocked away by the enemy soldiers rushing from all directions.

"You don't have to worry, these ugly raids are limited. It's not too late for us to break through after they shoot the raids." Chen Yiti said in a deep voice.

However, when there are so many natives and so close, is it really so easy to break through?

Chen Yiti was in a very heavy mood.

After three rounds of throwing, the musketeers and snatchers in the Tang army suffered nearly 100 casualties, and the natives who were closely surrounded them stopped projecting.

A cold light flashed in Chen Yiti's eyes.

He waved his sword and shouted: "Brothers, when the enemy goes to bring the spears, our army will break through immediately! Passing our order, the entire army will rush out of the indigenous battle formation in the west, and then divide into two units. The front part will be full of spearmen and rush back to the Sanbaoyan base camp, and the rear part will be left by all shield soldiers and generals to block the indigenous people!"

After hearing Chen Yitiao's order, all Tang Jun couldn't help but look shocked and sad on his face.

With so many enemy troops, it is impossible to escape without any hesitation. Only by blocking the enemy in divisions is the only way to survive.

However, the general Chen Yiti was willing to use himself as bait to personally block the enemy, but the entire Tang army was shocked.

The guard next to him exhorted in a crying voice: "Captain Chen, you can break through with the spearmen, just leave us here to stop the enemy."

Chen Yiti smiled bitterly and shook his head: "I, Tang army, have always been in times of danger. The main general needs to rush forward to alleviate the difficulties. How can there be a main general like me who abandons my brothers and escapes by himself? I would rather die than do it!"

The next battle began to proceed in the way Chen Yiti expected.

The Tang army first concentrated all its strength and harshly attacked the indigenous defenders in the west. When they paid dozens of Tang soldiers' lives and killed more than a hundred indigenous people at the same time, the Tang army finally broke through the indigenous people's encirclement.

Afterwards, all the Tang army spearmen, with the only one hundred remaining musketeers, fled west with all their might.

All the shield soldiers surrounded Chen Yi and all the guards in the middle, forming an airtight tortoise shell formation, and slowly moved westward.

Seeing that the Tang army broke through his encirclement and divided it into two parts, all the natives did not react for a while.

However, when they saw that the Tang soldiers behind them formed a huge turtle shell with shields and moved westward, they instantly understood.

The natives howled and rushed forward. After carefully avoiding the spikes on the shield, they stabbed the swords and guns in their hands into the gaps caused by movement.

There were another scream in the Tang army formation, and some shield soldiers kept screaming and falling down. However, as soon as he fell down, new shield soldiers came over to fill the gap again.

Of course, these shield soldiers were not completely passive in defense. They often seized the opportunity to slam the heavy shield in their hands towards the natives who were poking the bee, and stabbed these weak-guarded guys to death with the two rows of sharp and terrifying spikes on the shield.

Chen Yiti and the guards also seized the opportunity and cut off many indigenous soldiers who had no time to dodge from the gaps in the exposed vendors.

When he saw the distant snorkeling and musketeers who had disappeared into the rain and could never see each other again, Chen Yiti issued a loud military order, ordering the entire army to form a formation to resist on the spot and no longer move.

The Tang army in the rear moved all the way, leaving behind a string of shield soldiers' bodies. By this time, there were less than four hundred shield soldiers.

The besieged natives naturally paid almost twice the amount of corpses.

The heavy rain was still pouring out wildly, surrounding the Tang army's tortoise shell formation, with corpses scattered and blood flowing all over the ground. The entire battlefield was very bloody and terrifying.

The natives were also exhausted from attacking and killing. Seeing that the Tang army stopped again, they retreated several steps away from the Tang army, and then continued to surround the Tang army, a much smaller tortoise shell formation.

At this time, Chen Yiti, the head general of the Tang army, who was already panting, slowly showed a look of relief on his face.

Since the war has been around, I can kill more than 1,000 natives with these twenty guards and these shield soldiers of less than 400 hundred. The results of this battle are quite impressive.

In his army, such as flying kites, spearmen, and musketeers, as long as they survived, they had escaped. Even if the entire army was surrounded and annihilated, it would have recovered a lot of losses.

"Brothers! I, Chen Yiti, was born into a refugee family in Henan. When my family was about to starve to death, I was saved by Lord Li. Later, I started as a spearman and fought with Lord Li all the way. Now I am a sentry commander. It is a great fate to be able to live and fight with all brothers. Today, I am here to fulfill my duty as the Tang army, work hard to kill the enemy and be loyal to Lord Li! If there is a next life, I, Chen Yiti, hope that I can be brothers with you, eat meat, drink wine with you, and kill the enemy and serve the country!"

Chen Yiti shouted with a slight smile on his face, but tears rolled in his eyes.

"Kill the enemy!"

"Kill the enemy!"

"Kill the Tartars and gain fame!"

"Kill the Tartars and go to heaven!"

...

As the natives brought in a large number of raids, an indescribable sadness flashed across Chen Yiti's face, but this sad expression was quickly covered by a hideous expression.

"Brothers, come with me and fight with these indigenous ugly people! Fight!"

"Run!"

The Tang army's tortoise shell formation instantly dispersed, and Chen Yiti took the lead and slashed fiercely at the natives who had not yet reacted.

His subordinates also shouted, slashing swords and stabbing guns, and slaughtering the indigenous people fiercely.

The remaining shield soldiers directly used their shields as weapons to hit the natives, and used the spikes on the shields to kill the natives.

For a moment, the Tang army fought with a group of natives, and the scene turned into a stalemate.

However, as time went by, the number of Tang soldiers was fewer and the encirclement of the natives became smaller and smaller.

After slashing nearly twenty natives, Chen Yiti, who was almost exhausted, was unable to stop and was cut off his right wrist with a knife by a vicious native.

His right hand was still holding the knife that had chopped and curled the blade and fell to the ground.

At the same time, several spears stabbed him hard.

The spear that stabbed him in his body was bounced up by a thick steel breastplate, and a sinister spear pierced through his throat.

Chen Yiti subconsciously used his remaining left hand to hold the handle of the spear, then fell softly and no longer moved.
