The Beidi infantry archers had to take the initiative to attack and attack from their backs. Without the protection of bunkers, they would suffer heavy casualties. By the time they advanced within fifty steps, Beidi's archers had already lost more than a dozen people.
The battle loss ratio is as high as 30%!
If it were an ordinary big-headed soldier, he would have fled.
However, these Beidi Rangers had penetrated deep into the hinterland of Daliang and had no way out. They could only continue the attack desperately, but the remaining fifty steps were particularly tragic. The closer the distance is, the more accurate the guards' arrows are. Instead of dozens of arrows being able to hit one person, it has become five or six arrows being able to hit one person.
Seeing that the horse archers had lost 40%, the tooth general was not worried at all. Instead, he said coldly as if he had a chance to win: "Advance another twenty steps, and we can charge forward. Although the new army's shooting speed is extremely fast and its accuracy is amazing, it carries I'm afraid there are not many arrows left, and the battle is about to end."
Why, even though he carried a lot of spare arrows, due to the lack of tree branches and the excitement of the battle, he had no time to make arrows on the spot, so he could only pick up the opponent's arrows from the ground and fight back. It's a pity... because the local arrow hit the stone, the arrow became blunt.
Even though the guards were incredibly accurate and could hit the enemy, they couldn't penetrate even the light armor.
The Beidi horse archers advanced from a hundred steps to fifty steps and lost a total of twenty people, but when they pushed from fifty steps to thirty steps, they only lost ten people.
The first captain immediately shouted to Qin Feng: "Sir, the arrow is gone!"
Qin Feng had already expected this, and immediately shouted: "Step forward, charge forward and kill!"
With an order, the twenty guards all dropped their short bows and assembled the improved rifles they carried. Under the leadership of the first captain, they ran out of the bunker and rushed towards the horse archers below. Because it was downhill, and the guards had undergone physical training, they were extremely fast, and they were in front of the horse archers in the blink of an eye.
The horse archers hurriedly drew their short swords to meet the enemy, but they were still stabbed to death by Bu Shan.
The two sides then engaged in close combat, and a melee broke out.
When the four or five teams who had been lurking on the two wings saw this situation, they immediately rushed out from the hillside and rushed towards this side for reinforcements. At a distance of a hundred steps, they started shooting at the horse archers. When the horse archers and guards were completely mixed together, the fourth and fifth teams gave up shooting, took out their rifles, and attacked from both wings.
Zhong Ling, who was on the hilltop opposite, frowned for a moment: "What a Qin Feng! How dare such a skilled man to divide his troops into three groups with only dozens of people in his hands?! Is it because newborn calves are not afraid of tigers, or are they afraid of tigers? Is the new army too confident in its combat power?"
Because the guards hold rifles, their martial arts, physical fitness, and morale are one level higher than those of horse archers. Coupled with the combination of the ambush troops and the frontal guards, forming a pincer attack, the remaining forty horse archers were already at the end of their strength.
Zhong Ling decisively ordered: "Send additional support quickly!"
The deputy lieutenant hit the cowhide drum hard, and the one hundred cavalrymen who were guarding the passage down the mountain rushed here on horseback. When the horses were either too tired to climb, or fell down, the cavalrymen abandoned their horses and walked on foot. Running this way, the support speed is extremely fast.
Seeing that the enemy's reinforcements had arrived, Qin Feng immediately jumped onto the bunker and shouted: "Quick fight! Return to the bunker!"
The first captain stabbed the infantry archer in front of him to death and roared: "Kill!"
Beidi Ma Archer was already shocked.
How come these beam soldiers have such amazing fighting prowess? Moreover, the morale is too terrible. In close combat, the more brave they become, the more they fight.
The scariest thing is...
Close combat consumes the most physical strength. Even veterans who have been on the battlefield for many years can only last for a while before they are exhausted and need to be covered by their comrades to retreat. At this time, the horse archers were almost too tired to lift their short swords, but the new army guards' momentum remained unabated and their physical strength was still sufficient.
One after another, the last step archer was stabbed to death by the guard. Before he was about to die, he used his last bit of strength to stab the guard's shoulder with his short sword.
Just listen to the sound of 'Clang'.
There was actually a thick piece of iron hidden under the clothes on the guard's shoulders!
The short sword, which is famous for its ability to break armor, broke when it was chiseled into the iron sheet.
The last archer fell in a pool of blood in despair.
Thirty-seven guards successfully retreated to the bunker. Five of them were injured. The parts with thin armor attached were directly pierced by the short sword. They were bleeding profusely and had lost their combat effectiveness.
While Qin Feng removed the 'simple medical kit' from the guards and bandaged the injured guards, he looked at the three sacrificed guards lying in the distance and gritted his teeth: "Brothers, your death will not be in vain. I will let the Beidi army fight for it." You will be buried with me, and your wives, children, parents, will be supported by me, Qin Feng."
The remaining guards leaned against the bunker, breathing heavily.
After hearing Qin Feng's words, he immediately became energetic and shouted with high morale: "For the young master! For the beam!"
Before the guards could rest, the hundreds of archers who rushed to the rescue had already reached the hundred-step position, and expecting that Qin Feng's arrows had been exhausted, they rushed towards the mountain without any scruples.
What was exhausted at this time was not only arrows, but also tactics.
Because right now, there is only one tactic left for Qin Feng to choose, which is close combat.
At the same time, the three teams defending the rear also withdrew.
Under the protection of the improved armor, as well as relying on favorable terrain and archery advantages, the three teams not only defeated the enemy army three times their own, but also retreated completely. They all retreated with full strength, but they were full of arrows. , like hedgehogs.
As a result, Qin Feng still had forty-seven guards on hand. Excluding the five injured, the actual combat effectiveness was forty-two.
Facing the remaining hundred Beidi archers, they could only fight with all their might.
Just when Qin Feng was about to give the order, he heard a roar coming from the flank.
"Rescue the young master! Kill!"
Looking for reputation, Ning Hu actually led the remaining fifty guards to fight over from the flanking hill on foot.
Qin Feng was overjoyed, but also extremely surprised.
He didn't ask Ning Hu for help, how did he know that he was being attacked? Moreover, Shanbei is far away from here, and it is impossible to get back in time.
Unless... Ning Hu didn't go far at all.
never mind!
It's too late to worry about these things at this time.
Qin Feng immediately raised his arms and shouted: "Kill!"
When the remaining guards saw the young marquis arriving with reinforcements, their fighting spirit was even higher. They jumped out of their bunkers and rushed towards the Beidi archers like ghosts and ghosts.
Seeing this situation, Zhong Ling's face turned pale. Although he was unwilling to do so, he had no choice but to shout: "The situation is over, retreat!"
The deputy lieutenant frowned and said in a deep voice: "General, the military strength of both sides is not far apart, and they still have the strength to fight!"
Zhong Ling shook his head, with a firm look in his eyes: "The number of people is the same, but the combat power is very different."
