Chapter 199 Intercepting the Halfway (Part 1)

Zhan Ting and Xia Junmao, who were nearly a hundred miles away, also received signals of fighting. They were dormant for two days and two nights waiting for this moment. A loud whistle spread throughout the mountain plateau near Anzhou City. It was originally silent and silent, and a figure suddenly appeared in the deserted mountain plateau. One by one, a figure emerged from the land, and a war horse was led out in the dense forest at the foot of the mountain.

"Chan Dao Guard comes first!" Xia Junmao said a word and took the lead over the mountain plateau and headed towards Jinchang City. Panlong Ridge was fifty miles away from Jinchang City. The cavalry of Han Dao Guard galloped down from the top of the mountain. As the horses under his crotch were running, Jinchang City was already far away, and there was also the Xia Tang Army Camp in the distance. Those gray-black military camps were densely spread outside Jinchang City, blocking all connections between the city and outside the city.

It was almost Chen Shi. It was when the Tang army was having breakfast. The logistics troops began to bury the pot and cook. The soldiers who had been in charge of the night were also changing defenses with their comrades in charge of the morning duty. It can be said that the defense of the Tang army was the weakest. The Han Dao Guard fell from the sky. After a burst of smoke and dust, they broke into the rear of the military camp in an instant, which shocked the Tang army. In a short time, those who were sleepy eyes were cut off their heads, those who wanted to escape before they could fight were pierced through their chests, and those who had not had time to swallow their food and fell to the ground while holding their rice bowls tightly.

"The escapees will be killed without mercy!" Fan Yi waved a half-man-long sabre and killed several deserters who ran away with their heads under the horse. The chaotic battle situation was immediately under control. "Pick up the weapon to fight back, the number of enemies is not large!"

Fan Yi rode his horse to meet the enemy and chopped down several soldiers of the Han Sword Guard one after another. Inspired by the general's fighting spirit, the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty finally calmed down and began to take up weapons to fight back. However, Xia Junmao did not intend to give them a chance. He led the way, and the wind-splashing sword in his hand took the enemy's life every time he used the sword.

After Xuan Shaoning's war horse overturned a fire lamp, he immediately provoked a little spark with his spear and threw it onto the tent. After seeing his lieutenant's actions, his subordinates immediately followed the example. Soon, the tent began to catch fire one after another. Occasionally, some soldiers from the Tang Dynasty shouted and ran out of the tent on the fire, while more tents were empty, allowing them to burn into a fireball. Although the Tang Dynasty army was indeed fighting fiercely with the Han Dao Guard, facing these empty tents, Xuan Shaoning still felt that something was strange.

"Be careful!" A long spear pierced under Xuan Shaoning's elbow. With a slight difference, he turned around and saw a soldier under Tang's chest pierced, shaking it and then fell to the ground.

"Shaoning, what are you thinking!" Duan Lang's face was full of fear of avoiding the disaster and his confusion of blame for Xuan Shaoning in a daze. "The experience on the battlefield is much richer than mine. How could you be so careless! If I hadn't thrown the knife in my hand, the enemy would have hurt you just now!"

"I was wrong, thank you, Duan Lang!" Xuan Shaoning was indeed a little scared, and was extremely grateful. This was the first time he fought side by side with Duan Lang. Unexpectedly, he saved his life as soon as he came up.

"The war commander has arrived. Let's seize the time to eliminate these enemy enemies!" The excited Duan Lang did not notice Xuan Shaoning's doubts at all. He drove the war horses to enter the battle group again. Xuan Shaoning turned back and looked to the rear, and waves of smoke and dust were telling himself that the Rust Guard had arrived later.

"Is it because I'm thinking too much?" Xuan Shaoning decided to verify his doubts. "You'll know if you go to more tents!"

In order to catch the enemy off guard, Zhan Ting and Xia Junmao discussed with Xia Junmao that the Han Dao Guard would set out first. After all the people went down the mountain, Zhan Ting would lead the Rust Claw Guard to attack, so that the lower the enemy would not be discovered by the Xia Tang of both sides. The later the enemy would find himself, the greater the chance of winning this battle.

According to the news of the previous scouts, the number of Tang soldiers besieging Jinchang City was about 30,000, and the surprise attack tactics could achieve a good start. Once the enemy's morale was low, and the god-killing cavalry in Jinchang was reversed, it would not be difficult to wipe out all these enemy troops. This would cut off the retreat of the Tang main army, and after that, the front and back attacks would definitely defeat the Tang main army.

It has been nearly four hours since the Tang army siege. The war must be stalemate outside Anzhou City. Zhan Ting kept beating the horses with his horse whip. Hurry up, hurry up, the most important factor in the surprise attack was time. The war horses equipped by the Rutzhao Guard were already good horses in the Liang Dynasty army, and it didn't take much time to reach a distance of fifty miles.

Just as the Rust Jade was about to arrive at the Xia Tang army camp in the war, a strange army appeared behind the Rust Jade like a ghost. Each of them was wearing silver armor and beast helmets, and waving a chain hammer in their hands. As the name suggests, one end of the weapon was held in his hand, and the other end of the thick chain was a head-sized iron hammer, with star thorns everywhere.

Everyone in these suddenly appeared whispered in their mouths, fearing that the Rust Guards ahead would not find themselves. When the people at the tail of the Rust Guards turned around, the chain hammer flew out and hit them in front of them, and fell off the horse and died on the spot. With the stimulation of blood, these people became even more interested. The war horses under their crotch were also covered in iron armor and faster than those of the Liang Dynasty. Taking advantage of this advantage, they launched a crazi attack on the Rust Guards ahead, and for a while, the soldiers at the tail of the team suffered many casualties.

Zhan Ting heard the shouts from behind and turned around to see the enemy who cut off his retreat. Although it was a little unclear, the silver armor did not look like the army of the Tang Dynasty. However, no matter which army it was, it would dare to attack the Rust Claw Guard, so naturally he had to fight back. Zhan Ting ordered his troops Gong Zhengyuan: "You lead half of the troops to deal with these tails!"

After receiving the order, the army Gong Zhengyuan immediately raised the corner flag. The cavalry corps that were originally running forward in unison immediately separated in an orderly manner. Half of the men and horses continued to run forward without stopping, while the other half of the men and horses turned their heads to greet the enemy troops behind after a distance.

"Kill!" The rapid reaction of the Rust Chauwei really surprised the enemy troops in the rear, but after a brief hesitation, they immediately fought under the leadership of the commander. A new battlefield was opened up between Panlong Ji and Jinchang City. One side of the battle wanted to eliminate these inexplicable enemies as soon as possible, while the other side wanted to completely wipe out the Liang Dynasty's army.

The two sides fought back and forth, and the Rust Jade did not fight on their own with courage, but formed a five-man battle formation in an orderly manner. The five people cooperated with each other and attacked and defended each other. Their purpose was to maximize the division of the enemy army, and to break the enemy into separate square formations, which was conducive to exerting the power of the five-man formation. On the contrary, the enemy did not have the tactics of the Rust Jade, and it was a stage for individual performances, and did not form a helping hand to each other.

Shi Gong Zhengyuan was quite confident that he could fight quickly in the face of such an enemy. After solving an enemy, he rushed into the center of the enemy army under the protection of the five-man formation behind him and wanted to kill the opponent's head coach in one fell swoop. The head coach was not difficult to identify. Although he was wearing a single-colored armor, his helmet was unusual in gray as the gray of the cavalry as snowy white as the snow all over the mountains.

Shi Gong Zhengyuan picked up his spear and stabbed the man. Although he didn't think he could hit the target with one blow, he wanted to make the opponent panic, but the result was that the White Wolf Head slightly leaned back and avoided the attack. Not only that, he also threw the chain hammer when he was leaning back and hit a guard next to Shi Gong Zhengyuan. The blood splashed out on Shi Gong Zhengyuan's armor while the guard fell to the ground. Suddenly, a familiar feeling arose. The White Wolf Head turned to the horse, swung the hammer head to force the enemy away for a distance, then rode the horse towards Shi Gong Zhengyuan, and hit the war horse under his crotch with a hammer. The war horse neighed in pain. Shi Gong Zhengyuan immediately became unstable. The White Wolf Head seized the opportunity and jumped into the air and kicked him off the horse.

With just a few moves, Shi Gong Zhengyuan was at a disadvantage. The offensive and defensive front formed by himself and the five-man formation had collapsed. The remaining four soldiers fought to protect the fallen Shi Gong Zhengyuan and temporarily saved his life. You must know that in the battle formations of all the cavalry, if the horse falls, not only will it be attacked by the enemy, but also face the trampling of the war horses. If you are not careful, you will lose your life. One of the soldiers wanted to pull Shi Gong Zhengyuan up. Just as he reached out, the white wolf-headed chain slammed his throat and was thrown away from him. The fate can be imagined.
