Ji Han Grand Commander

Chapter 327 321. The Beast Army
"Damn it, the Han army is too powerful. I'm afraid we can't defeat them..."

Dong Tuna personally wore animal skins, was naked from the waist up, and fought hard with a broadsword to kill two Han soldiers. However, as the second cave marshal, Dong Tuna naturally saw things that were different from others, including the first cave marshal's golden ring three knots.

The quality of the Han army's soldiers far exceeded that of anyone Dong Tuna had ever seen, including the soldiers of the Ugo Kingdom, not to mention the "village head fighting" level soldiers in Nanzhong.

Even Dong Tuna himself had a hard time fighting three or five Han soldiers. In the past, Dong Tuna could at least defeat a dozen strong men from Nanzhong, otherwise how could he become the second cave marshal? Just knowing how to fight is definitely not enough.

Now, the rearguard troops he led were captured by the Han army. After only half an hour of fighting, the defense line became shaky. If he had not led the way, the other Nanzhong soldiers would have collapsed long ago.

"When will King Mulu make his move? I can no longer resist!"

Although Dong Tuna knew that King Mulu was preparing to launch a surprise attack on the Han army, he became a little anxious as the battlefield was now in a slump, and began to curse King Mulu in his heart.

If Dong Tuna had not known that Meng Huo still needed him to fight for him, he would have suspected that Meng Huo wanted to kill someone with a borrowed knife and let the Han army get rid of him.

However, after thinking it over, Dong Tuna threw this idea out of his mind. First, Dong Tuna was still loyal to Meng Huo, and he would fight wherever Meng Huo pointed. Second, Dong Tuna and Ahui Nan were the few generals in Nanzhong who had some brains. If he died, Ahui Nan would be even more helpless.

Even if Meng Huo, who is such a cunning person, wanted to get rid of me, he would not choose this time.

"Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!"

Suddenly, a long call was heard from the forest. Dong Tuna recognized it. It was the voice of King Mulu, and this was the slogan he used to call upon his beast army.

Strangely enough, this slogan has been learned by others, but it has no effect at all. Therefore, King Mulu did not need to keep it a secret. He always commanded the beasts under his command openly, without worrying that someone would seize control or hurt him in return.

Just as Dong Tu was daydreaming, the originally silent forest began to become restless. From the originally peaceful forest, the rustling sound of trees rubbing against each other began to be heard, as if something was running through it.

Ma Zhong, who was guarding the woods on the Han army's flank, was no mediocre man. He naturally heard the shouting in the woods just now and noticed the changes in the woods. He immediately ordered the soldiers, who were already on guard, to be prepared to guard against the Nanman army that might rush out of the woods.

The Han army's sword and shield soldiers were in the front, spearmen in the middle, and archers in the back, all ready for battle, looking intently in the direction of the dense forest. As long as any enemy rushed out, they would mercilessly shoot them into sieves.

"Roar!"

However, unexpectedly, the first to rush out was a black panther, which stunned the Han soldiers. After all, everyone was thinking about the ambush of the southern barbarians, and no one expected a wild beast to suddenly appear.

During this moment of shock, no one in the Han army shot arrows or did anything. Perhaps in their subconscious, the beast was not an enemy.

However, along with the black panther, many other jackals, tigers, leopards and other wild beasts rushed out of the woods, numbering thousands in total.

If it were just a few tigers and leopards, they would not have any impact on the orderly formation of the Han army. However, the Han soldiers could not bear the thousands of beasts rushing out. If they had not been well trained, they would have fled for their lives. "Shoot! These are animals driven by the enemy! Kill them!"

Ma Zhong reacted. He had heard before that the Grand Commander Feng Xi told the Prime Minister that there was a strange man in the south who could control wild beasts. Ma Zhong had thought it was a joke and did not take it seriously. But now he really saw a thousand wild beasts charging into the battle together. The shock in his heart was beyond words.

The Han soldiers were also in a dilemma. If they were dealing with humans, they would have no problem. But the army had never taught them how to deal with wild beasts? Facing wild beasts that were completely different from humans, the Han soldiers' combat skills didn't seem to be of much use, and they could only fight back instinctively.

Although the Han army's bows and crossbows were sharp, the speed of tigers and leopards was much faster than humans. In just a few breaths, they rushed to the front of the Han army, setting off a bloody storm.

"Uhhhhh help me!"

A Han soldier had his left hand bitten off by a tiger in front of everyone else, and rolled on the ground in pain. The other Han soldiers were all silent. This kind of fear was an instinctive fear when facing a large carnivore, and it made these well-trained Han soldiers forget what to do for a moment.

Some who had not been trained for long even dropped their weapons and ran away. It was hard to imagine that this was the behavior of the Han army soldiers.

"Don't panic! Hold on! The enemy is just an unprotected beast!"

Ma Zhong tried to stabilize the front line, but it was his first time to fight against wild beasts, and he had no idea how to do it. Ma Zhong's flank troops also failed to stabilize the front line despite the huge losses, and were soon broken through by these jackals, tigers and leopards, allowing them to rush straight to Guan Suo and Zhang Bao's rear defense line.

"Oh no! There's a big beast! There's a leopard!"

Zhang Bao and Guan Suo's front and center armies were originally suppressing the Nanman army, but suddenly from the rear came the soldiers' hoarse and terrified cries. For a moment, many soldiers at the rear looked sideways, wanting to see what was going on.

It turned out that it didn't matter what they saw, they were so scared that they lost their souls.

Countless ferocious beasts with bloody mouths and even blood on their faces rushed straight towards them. Ma Zhong's flank defense troops could not withstand such a scene just now, let alone the Han army's center army that was caught off guard?
Most of the Han army soldiers were ordinary people, and they had heard about the horrors of wolves, tigers and leopards since childhood. Now, when they suddenly saw these things appear in front of them, they were also panicked.

"Great! King Mulu finally took action."

The happiest person was Dong Tuna in the front. His troops were about to be defeated by the Han army, but fortunately, King Mulu chose the right time to take action. Now the offensive strength of the Han army was reduced, and there was an obvious wavering in the rear of the Han army. It can be seen that King Mulu's beast army was showing great power.

"Blow the horn! Attack! It's time for us to counterattack!"

Dong Tuna seized the opportunity and ordered the soldiers holding large bull horns beside him to blow the horns symbolizing attack. He then led his rearguard troops and King Mulu to attack from the front and back and defeat the Han army together.
