In an instant, shields collided with shields. The warriors of the Han tribe wore non-slip leather military boots. They were the elite selected from more than 4,000 people in the tribe. They were superior in endurance, speed, fighting, and strength. With just one encounter, they knocked the enemy wearing straw sandals to the ground. With a strong slap of the thick shield in their hands, they knocked the enemy unconscious on the spot.
Some enemies also stretched out their bone spears when they just charged. Even if they couldn't break out of the encirclement alive, they had to drag someone down with them.
As a result, he met the sword and shield soldier on the opposite side, and used the shield in his hand to block the bone spear to his side. Then he twisted his feet and turned his body to the side, and chopped down with the long sword in his other hand, cutting the wooden-handled spear in the enemy's hand into two pieces. Then he kicked the enemy who was in shock because the spear was cut off. Then a miscellaneous reinforcement soldier with a big stick rushed out from the side and swung the stick at the enemy's back, knocking him unconscious on the spot.
The spearmen of the Han tribe were not inferior at all. Not only were they in a neat formation, but they also learned the true teachings of Luo Chong in the actual combat of close combat.
The spearmen of the Han tribe and the enemy's spearmen collided, and both stretched out their spears at the same time, but the spearmen of the Han tribe were longer, with a length of three and a half meters, which was much longer than the enemy's bone spears, and they were the first to reach the attack range.
But this time Luo Chong wanted to capture prisoners alive, so they did not use any killing moves. Luo Chong also arranged targeted training for them in terms of capturing prisoners. At this time, the results of these trainings were being fully demonstrated by the robbers.
The spearmen thrust their spears straight, and when the spear shaft touched the opponent's spear, they held the spear with both hands, kicked their feet, exerted force on their waists, and swung the spear shaft to knock the enemy's spear aside. Just when the enemy was wide open, the spearmen stretched their spears straight to the enemy's side, twisted their waists back again, and drove the spear shaft with their bodies, swung it violently on the enemy's head or neck. With just two movements, the enemy was knocked to the ground.
Even if the person who fell to the ground did not faint, he would not have a chance to resist. Several reinforcements suddenly rushed out from the side, pounced on the enemy in an instant, pressed the enemy firmly under their bodies, and then tied him up tightly.
The archers of the Han tribe were equally powerful even without bows and arrows. Their shovel was their second weapon, the only weapon for close combat. They held a short stick in their left hand and a shovel in their right hand. When the enemy thrust a spear at them, the archers would block it with a wooden stick, and then the shovel in their right hand would be like an axe, instantly cutting off the enemy's weapon. Then they would attack at close range, either hitting the head with a shovel or swinging the neck with a wooden stick.
Their close combat capability was off the charts. There were also some agile people among the enemies, such as the leader of the 40 men, who was not only strong but also very agile. The spear in his hand had been chopped in two long ago, but he grabbed a wooden stick from someone and swung it vigorously, and no one could get close to him for a while.
Hu Mancang, the general flag of the sword and shield soldiers, frowned when he saw this situation. He knew that it was not that his soldiers were useless and could not beat the enemy, but that the soldiers remembered the leader's orders and wanted to capture them alive. Otherwise, no matter how powerful a person was, he would have died in front of the groups of soldiers.
Hu Mancang stood in front of him with a shield in one hand and a knife in the other. He charged forward with his shield sideways, knocking the enemy leader away with a bang. When the enemy landed and did not stand firmly, he chopped him with a backhanded knife.
Then a scream of "Ah!" was heard, and half of the arm holding the wooden stick flew high into the air. A stream of blood suddenly spurted out from the wound of the broken arm.
Hu Mancang stood aside with a bloody waist knife in his hand, swung the long knife forward and shouted loudly.
"This man is the enemy leader, kill him for me."
The next second, a dozen sword and shield soldiers saw their general flag was so brave that he chopped off the enemy's arm with one sword. You have to know that they have never chopped a living person since they received the sword. Now they received the order, just like opening the sheepfold to invite the evil wolf to eat with open belly. They immediately rushed forward with long swords in hand.
Puff, puff, puff, a dozen sword lights flashed, and the cannibal's unusually brave leader was surrounded and cut into pieces with swords. Parts of arms and legs fell to the ground. Hu Mancang walked over and cut off the enemy chief's head with a sword, and threw it to several totem warriors who were still resisting.
Those soldiers were stunned on the spot, and those who invited the miscellaneous reinforcements had never seen such a bloody scene, cutting people into pieces alive. Even if they were bold enough to eat human flesh, they had never seen people being cut into pieces directly. The weapons in their hands were too powerful.
As for the reinforcements from other tribes, they didn't even eat people. Even when they hunted, they just used spears to poke a few holes in the prey and let them bleed. They had never seen such a powerful weapon that could chop a person into pieces with one knife.
This bloody scene frightened them all, and they even forgot to resist. They were directly pinned to the ground by several Han tribe warriors around them and tied up tightly.
After a while, after the battle, the statistics showed that 42 enemy squads were wiped out, five were killed, and 37 were captured alive. On our side, because all the armored soldiers of the Han tribe rushed to the front, there was no casualty after the battle, not even a light injury.
Although there were more than 200 people, plus a cavalry of the general flag, who teamed up to bully 40 people, this battle was really beautiful, showing the military power and pride of the Han tribe, and making the soldiers realize the power of the weapons in their hands, which made them more confident. At the same time, it also boosted the morale of the coalition forces. Even the miscellaneous reinforcements from other tribes realized that this battle did not seem to be that difficult to fight, and they seemed to come here just to pick up the benefits.
The battlefield was quickly cleaned up, all the prisoners were escorted away, and the bodies were buried in pits to prevent them from rotting in the hot weather and eventually causing plague.
But this battle was over, and the same scene was constantly being played out in other places. In five or six days, more and more reinforcements came, all divided into many small teams wandering in the mountains and forests. Under the leadership of the elite warriors of the Han tribe, they won battles again and again, and their morale was getting higher and higher. Even in the coalition forces, some people have shouted the slogan of a decisive battle in Hanyang City.
However, Luo Chong knew that it was not the right time yet. He had to wait for two days until the coalition forces had more people and the enemy could react correctly.
The enemy soon realized that something was wrong. Some of the teams sent to the mountains to hunt had not returned for several days. Even if they chased prey, how could they catch it? So the enemy base camp outside Hanyang City began to starve. How could they survive without food?
So they immediately sent more people to the mountains, one for hunting, and the other for finding those missing people. A team had 100 people, and there were three or four giant apes following them, ready to explore the secrets in the forest.
