Chapter 268 Dian Wei VS Xia Houjie(2/2)
"Xia Houjie, you should know clearly that this is our last chance, because Huang Xu's desire to play with Yu has already had some fluctuations in his heart, which gives us an opportunity to take advantage of."
"The only thing we have to do now is to cause huge damage to him. If possible, it is best to kill more than half of his Qingxu army! You must remember, even if you lose your life, you must do everything possible
Consume the enemy's troops and hold back Xi Yu!"
"General, please rest assured, I will take your orders!"
After Xia Houjie said that, he turned around and walked away quickly.
He is in a hurry!
Looking around, Xi Yu was obviously in a hurry at the moment, even the soldiers were in a hurry. This was an excellent opportunity for him to make a contribution, and he must not miss it.
Speaking of Na Xiyu, it is obvious that he is a steady, step-by-step, and good at strategizing coach, but he has a young and energetic man under his command, who even dares to do such a taboo as a military strategist who goes deep into the army alone.
Now that I have encountered it, I must not let it go, no disrespect, the opportunity must not be missed and will not come back again.
After a while, the 10,000-strong army headed by Xia Houjie broke away from Cao Jun's camp in a mighty manner.
At this time, the city guards along the direction of Xi Yu's advance were also ordered to send a large number of archers to try to block Xi Yu's advance.
A few hours later, Xi Yu's army faced off against the first wave of enemy troops that came to stop them.
At the same time, Xi Yu also discovered that Xia Houjie, who had led nearly ten thousand people, was running towards the north without looking back.
Judging from the posture, he is probably going to capture the few cities he just captured a few days ago.
This made Xi Yu raise his eyebrows.
Speaking of which, there are actually no common people in these cities now, and there are more soldiers who are specially used to defend the cities and build fortifications. The key is that some of these soldiers are surrendered soldiers!
If Xia Houjie's departure goes smoothly, he is afraid that those soldiers who surrendered will rebel again. In this case, he will be attacked by the enemy from both inside and outside, causing unnecessary trouble.
The battle situation is fleeting, and the drama at this time cannot tolerate the existence of any uncertain factors.
"Where is Dian Wei?"
"Commander, the last general is here!"
Dian Wei, who heard the summons not far away, shouted loudly and hurried over.
"Hurry up and take four thousand dead soldiers to take off Xia Houjie's head!"
"promise!"
Dian Wei accepted the order and immediately led four thousand dead men and ran straight towards Xia Houjie's position, never thinking about the disparity in manpower.
Those dead soldiers did not take this matter to heart. After all, they were quite confident in their own strength.
Not to mention anything else, just the heavy and invulnerable armor on his body is not something that ordinary soldiers can accept.
There are also fully armed war horses underneath. These are the finest horses in Dawan Kingdom. Not only are they tall, but their ability to carry weight is also extraordinary.
Come to think of it, they are the only ones in this world that can carry such a heavy weight of dead soldiers while being fully armed.
It's a pity that Xia Houjie didn't know this.
He felt unhappy when he saw that the enemy had no more than a thousand men and yet dared to pursue his own army of ten thousand people.
There are only so many people here, who are you looking down on?
Unhappy, he decisively ordered the army to set up a battle formation on the hillside, and then rushed towards the thousands of people.
Xiyu in the distance didn't notice this.
After giving the order, he just led the army to continue to attack.
Four thousand dead soldiers are enough to fight against more than 10,000 enemy troops, and you don't need to worry too much.
At this time, Dian Wei was already rushing towards the high slope.
However, because it was uphill, it was quite strenuous. In the end, almost all the horses stopped charging and moved forward slowly.
At this moment, Xia Houjie, who had seized the opportunity, led his troops on horseback and came galloping down like surging waves.
But when he saw the opponent's army that was calm in the face of danger, like a thick city wall, he was stunned.
"This army... Why does it give people a terrifying pressure like a giant bear?"
Feeling the enemy's unyielding momentum, Xia Houjie was deeply surprised, but he couldn't think deeply about it.
When the war was about to break out, he brandished his spear and rushed straight towards Dian Wei.
Dian Wei, who was riding a tall horse, smiled brightly, showing his big white teeth and wielding the two halberds in his hands like a tiger.
Within a moment, the two of them started a fierce battle, and then the army behind them all collided with each other. In an instant, the people were on their backs, and the battle began.
Dian Wei raised his two halberds high, and then brought them down hard. Seeing this, Xia Houjie quickly held the spear across his chest to resist, but he was not strong enough and was no match for Dian Wei.
After only a few attempts to resist it, he was so shocked that his arms went numb.
Seeing this, Dian Wei struck again with one hand, knocking Xia Houjie off his horse, who could not hold up anymore. Then he waved his halberd, causing his opponent's blood to spill on the spot.
Shortly after Xia Houjie's death, the 10,000 troops behind him gradually followed in his footsteps.
Although they had an advantage in numbers, in the face of absolute strength, this advantage was nothing. They stood in front of the dead soldiers one by one, as if they were living targets.
In addition, the quality of weapons and equipment is completely incomparable. The dead soldiers kill people easily and easily, and the spears in their hands can easily break through the armor of the enemy.
Therefore, the dead soldiers who seemed to be surrounded on Banpo felt a lot more relaxed now.
As for the soldiers, because they had some inertia coming down from the top of the slope, they were unable to stop their feet in time, and they were all stabbed to death by the spears set up by the dead soldiers.
In just a few breaths, the army suffered heavy losses, and the war that had just begun was about to end.
Soon, Dian Wei and his men killed all the ten thousand soldiers like mowing grass, and the one-sided massacre ended.
But at this time, it was obviously unrealistic for Dian Wei to go back and catch up with Xi Yu.
Therefore, he planned to lead the dead soldiers to take a shortcut from the other side and then meet up with the army.
"Quickly clean the battlefield, count the number of people, and see what else can be used. We can't catch up with the army for the time being, so let's deal with all the enemy forces nearby first!"
Dian Wei wiped the blood from his halberds and began to direct everyone to clean up the battlefield.
After this battle, the dead soldiers also suffered some damage. Although the enemy was vulnerable, there were still many of them.
Although Cao Jun had no choice but to cut through their armor, they could still swarm forward and cause the dead soldiers to fall off their horses, causing them to be accidentally injured by iron hoofs on the chaotic battlefield.
Therefore, after this fight, they also lost more than 300 people.
However, compared to the enemy's army, it is obviously a number that is not worth mentioning.
