Chapter 5 The first battle!
"Swoosh!" Accompanied by the tremolo of the bowstring, a sharp arrow shot through the throat of Xing Tu Sentinel.
The Xingtu soldier who was sent by Lin Chuan to serve as a warning fell from the tree trunk and fell heavily into the snow.
"Enemy attack!" Lin Chuan leaned his back on the tree trunk, pulled out the sword at his waist, and rolled over and dodged the arrow that was coming.
In the forest, black shadows jumped and approached quickly. Xiao Zhan and the others heard Lin Chuan's shouting and just stood up with their weapons, the black shadows had already jumped in.
Pup! Accompanied by two screams, the two Xingtu soldiers were cut off their throats before they could react. The incoming enemies were powerful.
Lin Chuan used a knife block to block an attacking black shadow and hurriedly ordered the formation.
"Ah!" Harden's arm was cut off by the black shadow and let out a shrill scream. The black shadow wanted to continue swinging the knife. The stabbing gun in Jiang Mingyue's hand pierced the black shadow's chest.
The invading enemy was powerful and mysterious. In just a short time, three people had been killed in battle and one of them was seriously injured.
It was too late to retreat at this moment. Thinking of the danger of being wiped out by the entire army, Lin Chuan felt a little unwilling!
Lin Chuan roared violently, and with the consequences of being cut off with one knife in his arm, he cut off the head of the enemy who fought against him.
Seeing Lin Chuan's bravery, two more enemies who gave up the siege and formation of Xiao Zhan and others rushed towards Lin Chuan.
"Sir, be careful!" Feng Linghan loudly reminded Lin Chuan.
Lin Chuan gasped heavily and waved his sword to meet the two enemies. The long sword in the enemy's hand was fast and fierce. In less than a moment, Lin Chuan had a few blood grooves on his body. On the other side, the formation of Xing Tu warriors had been broken and they were fighting hard.
All the Xingtu warriors had never fought in battle before. They rashly encountered such a powerful enemy and fell into a disadvantage for a moment.
Sith held a shield in one hand and a knife in the other, with a bloodthirsty crazy look on his face, and he actually pressed against the black shadow attacking him, which surprised Lin Chuan, who was looking at him.
"Puff!" A blood arrow surged up, and the black shadow who was facing the Sith was pierced by the sword in the Sith's hand. Sith drew the sword, and the enemy rolled to the ground and lost his vitality.
When Lin Chuan was distracted, his arm was disfigured again, and the huge pain almost made Lin Chuan feel pain.
The angry Lin Chuan slashed hard with a backhand and slashed the enemy who wanted to continue to hurt him. At this moment, another enemy had already jumped up and slashed towards Lin Chuan.
"Swish!" Just as Lin Chuan was almost desperate, a sharp arrow shot out the enemy's head. Lin Chuan looked at the Xingtu warrior Ye Fei, who was standing with a bow. Lin Chuan smiled gratefully.
The sudden attack of the black shadow caught the Xingtu warriors off guard, but with Lin Chuan and Xis exerting their strength, they killed several enemies, and barely stabilized the situation.
Seeing the hopeless encirclement and annihilation, a whistle sounded from the mouth of a black shadow, and the rest of the black shadows did not want to fight. After repelling the Xingtu warrior in front of him, they quickly jumped into the depths of the forest and evacuated the battlefield.
"Don't pursue, be careful of fraud!" Lin Chuan stopped everyone chasing, staring at the shadows that were getting farther and farther away, with a look of thought on his face.
Less than a moment of battle, a scout of ten people killed three people. Harden lost one arm, while the others were injured.
Lin Chuan turned around and ordered: "Jiang Mingyue, Xiao Zhan Jing, the rest of them bandaged the wounds and cleaned the battlefield."
Jiang Mingyue and Xiao Zhan each chose one direction and held a knife to alert him, while Feng Linghan bandaged the fainting Harden. Because he sprinkled with bleeding powder, Harden saved his life.
The three dead Xingtu soldiers were all new recruits. At this moment, one of them was pierced by arrows and the two were wiped off their necks. Judging from their techniques, the enemy's methods were fierce and ruthless.
The four killed enemies were all wearing black clothes, without armor, and using standard battle swords, but the black wolf tattoo on their arms still exposed their identities.
"It's the Black Wolf Scout of the Dynasty!" The Sith recognized their identities.
When they heard that it was the Black Wolf Scout, the rest of them took a breath. In the dynasty army, the scouts were usually elite in the army, while the Black Wolf Scouts were selected from the elite scouts layer by layer. A legion of 100,000 people generally had less than a hundred black Wolf Scouts, which showed their elite.
Thinking of the fact that they had just fought with the Black Wolf Scout, who was known as the elite of the dynasty, and killed four people, everyone was both afraid and glad.
Since the dynasty black wolf scout appeared here, Lin Chuan did not dare to stay and took his people back overnight and returned to return to the Xingtu army in the rear.
On the evening of the next day, Lin Chuan and others returned to Kata Town, the vanguard army base.
At this moment, in addition to the Fifth Corps led by Tienniu, the Third and Fourth Corps also arrived in Kata Town, and the entire Kata Town became a huge military camp.
Lin Chuan reported the information he had investigated and finally sent it to the desk of Tieniu, the commander of the Fifth Corps.
Tieniu attached great importance to this information and summoned Lin Chuan himself.
A moment later, the command of the corps commander.
"Sir, scout Lin Chuan is ordered to report!"
"Come in." Tie Niu's voice came out.
Tie Niu sat behind a mahogany table, with various maps and information piled up on the table. He looked up and saw Lin Chuan with a smile on his face, "Lin Chuan, don't be so polite in the future, just call me Brother Tie."
After hearing Tie Niu's words, Lin Chuan smiled on his serious face, "Hehe, Brother Tie, then I'll be presumptuous."
"What are you and me who are not arrogant? You don't have to be so irrelevant." Tieniu stood up and pulled Lin Chuan to the chair next to him to sit down.
After some greetings, Tie Niu changed into a serious expression: "You are the only ones who have sent out this time, so you are back now. Tell me about the situation carefully."
Lin Chuan knew the seriousness of the matter and told all the information he had found and his judgment.
After hearing this, Tie Niu fell into deep thought, and after a long time, he raised his head and asked, "What do you mean is the Black Wolf Scout you met is not the scout of the dynasty field troops?"
Lin Chuan nodded, "The Black Wolf Scout is so powerful in the mainland, but what we encountered is not as powerful as the legend. After I came back, I looked through the information. What we encountered may be the Black Wolf Scouts in the garrison troops of the Gyeonggi Province. Although they are also affiliated with the Black Wolf Scouts, their combat power is only a little stronger than ordinary scouts. If we encounter a real Black Wolf Scouts, we may not be able to come back."
Tieniu pondered for a moment, "Our scout brigade has been formed, and I think the news will be sent back soon. You can go back and rest first."
"No" Lin Chuan stood up and said goodbye.
As a temporary scout, several people were damaged, which gave Lin Chuan a preliminary understanding of the combat power of the Dynasty army.
The Xingtu warrior Harden was seriously injured because he was missing an arm and could not participate in the battle for a short time, so he was sent to the rear. In this way, only Jiang Mingyue, Xiao Zhan, Xis, Feng Linghan, Ye Fei, Xiaer and Liu Zichen were left in Lin Chuan's ten-man team.
Because he was about to face a war, there was no personnel to supplement him, so Lin Chuan could only face the reality.
After less than half a day of rest, the scout soldiers followed Lin Chuan and the others to find the enemy's situation and sent back reliable information. A dynasty army was heading north at night, trying to suppress the rioter Xing Tu.
There were already three Xingtu corpses who arrived in Kata Town. Although they were not equipped enough weapons and equipment, they were very morale. The three corps commanders finally decided to eat this dynasty army.
That night, a long dragon of torches was winding forward dozens of miles away from Kata Town.
"How far is it to Kata Town?" On the side of the marching formation, Major General Chi Chongyun, wearing a red battle robe and red armor, held the horse and asked the staff officer beside him.
The staff officer replied: "It's about thirty miles away."
Major General Chi Chongyun ordered: "The entire army accelerates, be sure to pass through Kata Town before midnight."
The staff officer asked: "General Chi, we have been marching for a day and night. Are we going to rest in Kata Town for a few hours?"
Major General Chi Chongyun: "No, the imperial tomb guards only have one flag regiment, I am afraid they won't last long."
With Major General Chi Chongyun's order, the entire marching line accelerated again. After a day and night of continuous march, many soldiers of the dynasty fell behind. However, as the commander, Chi Chongyun didn't care about so many. The order he received was to suppress the riots of the imperial tomb Xingtu as quickly as possible.
As the commander of the First Guard Corps of the Gyeonggi Province, Chi Chongyun was only 30 years old and was one of the youngest major generals in the dynasty. This time, he was ordered to suppress the riot of Xing Tu, Chi Chongyun was eager to go further, so after receiving the news, he led his troops to go north without stopping, hoping to take this difficult military achievements into his own hands.
At this moment, in the snow-covered field, nearly 90,000 soldiers of Xingtu were lying on the snow and ice. Under the dark night, the torches of the dynasty army were particularly dazzling.
The Xingtu soldiers were short of clothes and food at the moment. Many of them were just sharpened wooden sticks, but this did not affect their determination to destroy the dynasty army at all.
The ambushing position of the First Flag Regiment of the Third Corps where Lin Chuan is located is on the right side of Qingshui River. Their main task is to cut off their retreat after the dynasty army entered the ambush circle.
The Chao army advanced very quickly and did not arrange scouts on both sides to investigate. The ambush troops let the Chao army go ahead to explore the scouts.
At the forefront of the Dynasty Army was the cavalry flag regiment of the First Garrison Corps, which was a cavalry unit of 10,000 people and the most elite force in Chi Chongyun's hands.
The sound of the horse's hooves was deafening. Under the iron hooves of the horse, snow was splashed everywhere. The tall and mighty cavalry straightened their bodies and galloped their horses.
Suddenly! On the road ahead, thick ropes bounced out of thin air. In the darkness, the fast-moving war horses hit the tight ropes. For a moment, people were overturned, and the entire cavalry marching line was in chaos, and screams came one after another.
A thick rope bounced out of thin air in front of Chi Chongyun's war horse. Fortunately, he strangled the war horse in time, but other fast-moving cavalry were not that good. The war horses lost their hooves and the cavalry fell out, and the rushing cavalry were trampled into meat sauce in the darkness.
"Swish swish swish!" A large rain of arrows poured out from the fields on both sides towards the cavalry, causing bursts of blood mist.
Chapter completed!
