Dynasty Conquest

Chapter 244 Heavy infantry attack!

"Master Legion, the Third Banner Regiment has been defeated—"

A soldier covered in blood ran from the darkness to Zhou Dingfang, commander of the Central First Army Corps, reporting anxiously.

"My lord, the head of the garrison flag of Heihe Province died in battle!"

"..."

Legion Commander Zhou Dingfang and a group of generals stood on the tower on the high ground, overlooking the entire battlefield from a high position. In the darkness, there were torches, people screaming and horses neighing, and there was a lot of shouting and killing.

Although the intercepting troops in front of Xia Ge's army were constantly broken through, Zhou Dingfang, the head of the First Army of the Central Army, was not in a hurry. He stared at the battlefield, his eyes rolled, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

Five miles in front of the tower, the flames were soaring into the sky. It was originally a camp of the Dynasty army, but now it has turned into a raging sea of ​​flames. The Nanchuan army just captured it.

Surrounding the fiercely fought battlefield, countless fire dragons are coming from all directions, which belong to the reinforcement troops deployed by the dynasty army in several other directions.

"Let the Third Corps block me firmly on the left side and beat them back." Commander Zhou Dingfang ordered.

The red lantern on the tower shook, and a large number of torches were suddenly lit on the left side of the battlefield. Tens of thousands of Central Army soldiers in red armor appeared in the wilderness in a neat line.

"My lord, the front is blocked!" The three thousand leading soldiers who followed Luo Ting had already lost all of them, and the survivors were all covered in blood, pointing at the fortified army formation ahead and shouting at Luo Ting.

"Break through them!" Sergeant Major Luo Ting was in charge of opening a way for the whole army to break through. Even though there were mountains of swords and seas of fire ahead, he was not afraid.

"My lord, my lord, the regiment commander has orders for you." Just as Luo Ting was about to lead the surviving sergeants to attack again, a panting soldier chased him up from behind.

"Master Sergeant, under the command of the Legion Commander, turn to the right to break through."

Xia Ge's army rushed left and right in the darkness, fighting fiercely in the middle of the night, but they still could not break through the blockade set up by the dynasty army. Often after breaking through a line of defense, they would find that there was another line of defense blocking the way in the darkness ahead, just like the infinite Like endless, blocking the way to break through.

On the two wings of the breakout, countless dynasty troops were like wolves, circling around and waiting for an opportunity. As long as Xia Ge's troops were not paying attention, they would pounce on them and bite fiercely.

Although Xia Ge, as the commander of the Second Army of the Nanchuan Army, was still too young compared to a cunning old fox like Zhou Dingfang, and lacked combat experience, he broke through the siege in the middle of the night and lost countless soldiers, and there was still no hope of breaking through.

Now Xia Ge's army that left the forest is surrounded by enemies. The enemies are hidden in the forest and in the grass. As long as they encounter a small group of troops that are alone, they will rush to eat them, so that Xia Ge does not dare to march quickly now. , fearing that the team would not be able to keep up in the dark.

"Move up the heavy infantry and knock out their teeth for me." Zhou Dingfang was already sure of winning, seeing the sleepy dragon gradually slow down and attacking less fiercely than before, he decided to give them a fatal blow.

On the tower where Zhou Dingfang was, he was able to clear the entire battlefield, and Xia Ge's troops holding torches were like women without clothes, allowing him to play.

Under Zhou Dingfang's command, the central army troops and provincial garrison troops, under his command with ease, can always arrive at the direction of Xia Ge's breakout in advance and set up formations in advance. Although Xia Ge's troops are exhausted, they still Can't rush out.

The hoplites of the central army were dressed in red heavy armor, carrying all machetes, and appeared in the darkness like ghosts on the left side of Xia Ge's troops who had broken through.

"Third Banner Battalion, stop the enemy on the left!" Xia Ge ordered loudly while running forward.

On both sides, a large number of dynasty soldiers rushed out suddenly. In order to ensure that the troops were not cut off, they were divided and surrounded. Therefore, every time an enemy appeared, Xia Ge would arrange troops to temporarily block it to ensure that the main force broke through.

"Brothers, follow me!" The commander of the Third Banner Battalion who received the order rushed to the left with his troops without hesitation.

After fierce fighting, the Third Banner Battalion has less than 3000 people, and has taken on two blocking missions, with heavy losses, but none of the soldiers retreated.

"Kill me—" The heavy infantry commander of the dynasty saw the Nanchuan soldiers rushing over, with a sneer on his lips and a look of sternness in his eyes, and charged up with three thousand heavy infantry.

In the first day of junior high school, the Nanchuan soldiers of the Third Banner Battalion of the Nanchuan Army were knocked and turned on their backs. Before they could react, these grim-looking hoplites had already raised the machetes in their hands, puffing and screaming. Shouting, the Nanchuan soldiers of the Third Banner Battalion suffered a dull loss.

"It's a hoplite! It's a hoplite!" The battalion commander of the third banner swung his knife and slashed at an enemy soldier in front of him, but a series of sparks splashed on his thick armor without hurting him at all. He hastily jumped back and loudly reminded the Nanchuan soldiers.

Seeing the Commander of the Third Banner Battalion shouting a reminder, the heavy infantry in front of him sneered, stepped forward, and slashed at the Commander of the Third Banner Battalion with a sound of cutting through the air with the machete.

Boom!The saber and the machete collided together, and the commander of the Third Banner Battalion was shocked to take a few steps back and sat down on the ground.

Pooh!The machete fell, and the third banner battalion commander's head was cut off in half.

"Ah!" Seeing this scene, the Sergeant Major of the Third Banner Battalion's eyes turned red, and he rushed towards him brandishing his saber, but he was sent flying by a mace halfway, and his life and death were unknown.

Facing the heavily armed heavy infantry, the soldiers of the Nanchuan Third Banner Battalion were no match at all and were slaughtered, but none of them retreated to cover the passage of the large troops behind them.

"Luo Ting, quickly lead people to support the third battalion!" Xia Ge ordered to Sergeant Major Luo Ting.

The heavy infantry rushed in too fast, and the third battalion couldn't resist it at all. If the heavy infantry broke in, the entire legion would be cut into two sections, and the consequences would be disastrous.

Luo Ting, who had already rushed to the front, didn't even think about it, and came back with the [-] surviving sergeants. He joined the sergeants of the Third Banner Battalion and blocked the [-] heavy infantry.

The sergeants are the elite of the Nanchuan Army, and the hoplites are also the elite of the Dynasty Army. Both sides are strong, so any battle is a life-and-death fight.

The heavy infantry relied on their well-equipped equipment to rampage, while the sergeants relied on the five-man fighting formation to unite and cooperate with each other, and they were evenly matched with the heavy infantry.

After all, the number of sergeants is too small, and some of them will soon lose their strength. Sergeant Major Luo Ting knocked a hoplite to the ground with a hammer. The infantry was dead.

Suddenly Luo Ting felt a chill in his lower abdomen, and seeing that the tip of a machete had pierced his lower abdomen, he was furious in his heart, and hit the hoplite on the head with a hammer, and the hoplite immediately fell to the ground with a scream. The helmet dented.

Luo Ting knelt on the ground, tore off his military uniform, and tried to bandage the wound on his abdomen, because the continuous bleeding made him feel that he was losing strength.

"Lord be careful!"

"Pfft!" Suddenly a machete came in the air, just as Luo Ting raised his head, he saw the machete slashing at his own head, and with a puff, Luo Ting's head flew out with rounded eyes.

Sergeant Major Luo Ting's death in battle was a huge loss for the entire Xia Ge Legion, but he led the sergeants to block the elite heavy infantry and bought time for the main force to withdraw. His sacrifice was worth it.

"The rebels can't run away, hahaha." On the tower, Zhou Dingfang, the commander of the First Army of the Central Army, was very excited when he saw the shrinking encirclement.

Just when Zhou Dingfang was happy, a soldier of the Central Army covered in blood rushed towards him, pointing at the rear and shouting in horror: "Legion Commander, Legion Commander, cavalry, rebel cavalry!"

Zhou Dingfang turned his head and looked at the black armored cavalrymen pouring out of the darkness behind him, his face suddenly turned pale.
