Fortunately, there were not many bows and arrows on Wang Han's side. The bandits only shot three rounds of arrows at a distance of 100 meters, shooting less than twenty people, and injuring fifty or sixty people. (The arrow formation is a cover type strike.)

Soon, these messy bandits were rushed to the shield formation formed by Wang Hanjun.

Unfortunately, they were greeted by the large shield that prevented them from charging and the sharp spear between the gaps of the large shield. The soldiers holding the large shield observed through the small holes left on the large shield. The spears in their hands kept stabbing out and retracting them. The bodies of the bandits rushing in front were pierced through, and arrows flew out from the gaps of the shield formation and shot into their bodies. Those who wanted to cross the shield formation would also be stabbed by the spear.

Within a few breaths, a hundred people died in the bandits who rushed to the front. However, the bandits behind did not know how many people died in front, and the number of bandits was more than three times that of Wang Han's army, which also led to many bandits gradually starting to rush to the side of Wang Han's army formation.

"What a group of native chickens and tiles." Looking at these bandits who had no combat rules at all, Yang Zhi spat disdainfully and ordered the soldiers loudly: "Form a four-person formation and kill!"

"kill!"

With the order, the soldiers who formed the shield wall in the front row immediately disintegrated and divided into four groups. Relying on the protection of the large shield, they protected each other to kill the enemies on the spot, and put these bandits into the military formation. At the same time, these four-person shield formations also dispersed the bandits who rushed in densely like reefs in the sea.

"kill!"

In the military formation, soldiers holding round shields and round shields also shouted, and rushed towards the bandits who rushed into the army without fear. Wang Han asked them to exercise and fight with wooden swords and shields almost every day. Each of them had rich combat experience, and ordinary bandits would be chopped over by them within one or two moves.

The crossbowmen retreated to the middle of the team at the beginning of the melee battle and formed a two-story circular formation. They stood in one row and squatted in the other row, aiming the bows and arrows in their hands around. Anyone who dared to rush towards them would be shot and killed by several arrows.

At the front of the military formation, Wang Han held a spear in one hand and stabbed it out and retracted it. The speed was as fast as if he had a pair of hands. The bandits rushing towards Wang Han saw only the cold light flashing in their eyes, and they were stabbed to the heart. Wang Han could easily catch the arrows and spears with his other hand and throw them back. The enemies rushing towards Wang Han were the most common. Unfortunately, no one could hurt Wang Han, and no one could escape from the range of Wang Han's spear wielding.

"It seems that the four-person shield array needs to be changed, and the protection composed of four people is a bit insufficient."

"The number of crossbowmen in the circular formation is still too small, and these bandits almost rushed in front of them. Some soldiers with large shields are needed to protect them."

"It's not bad. If they fight a few more times, they can call them real elites."

While killing the enemy, Wang Han was lucky enough to watch the entire battle leisurely, commenting on it, and occasionally catch the arrows and spears that were shooting at him, and then project them out to rescue the soldiers in danger.

————————————

As time passed, in the chaotic battle, five minutes later, the bandits who were still alive finally found that they were all corpses of their own people. Looking up, they had lost more than half of their troops, and the soldiers under these generals had no casualties at all.

At this moment, they finally realized the huge gap between them and Wang Han's army. Many bandits threw down their weapons and knelt on the ground, while more of them began to run for their lives.

In fact, if they had discovered it earlier, they would not have to wait until the reduction of staff was over half. As long as the reduction of staff was two to three levels, they would have fled. After all, they were just a group of mobs who bullyed the weak and feared the strong. Unfortunately, they died and injured too quickly. It was just a cup of tea (five minutes). When they discovered it, half of them had died. This simply subverted their perception of war.

"Those who do not kneel down and surrender, who continue to resist, will be killed on the spot."

"Don't let anyone go."

Seeing the bandits surrender and escape, Wang Han immediately issued an order loudly.

"Yes." Hearing the order, all the soldiers who were fighting immediately responded loudly and then shouted: "Those who do not kneel down and surrender, who continue to resist, will kill them on the spot."

The shouts are neat and quite intimidating.

Hearing the collective shouts of the soldiers in front of him, he was already frightened. The bandits who wanted to escape dropped their weapons and knelt on the ground. The fleeing one after another stopped and knelt down. Only twenty or thirty people dared to resist were easily killed by the soldiers on the spot, which shocked the surrendered bandits to tremble.

The surrendered bandits were quickly controlled.

The archers finally had the opportunity to use their archery skills, and arrows shot accurately at the escaped bandits, showing the results of their training.

Yang Zhi and Wu Song took more than 30 soldiers on horseback to chase the bandits who had run away, and everyone who was caught was cut and killed.

——————————————

Fifteen minutes later, Yang Zhi and Wu Song returned with soldiers chasing them on horseback, but did not bring back a single prisoner.

"General, the soldiers have already counted the results of the battle." Five minutes later, Yang Zhi came to Wang Han and reported: "In this battle, our army died, five seriously injured, and sixty-four slightly injured. A total of 692 enemies were wiped out, 518 prisoners were captured, five horses were seized, and several types of worn-out and inferior weapons were seized, totaling 1,280."

"Yeah." Hearing this, Wang Han nodded with satisfaction. "Yes, I won the first battle and told the soldiers that everyone will receive rewards after they go back. The dead soldiers paid pensions according to the will they wrote before going to war. The injured soldiers in this battle will not change during the period of recovery. Those who cannot fight again can receive half of the pensions for the deaths when they recover, or they can continue to stay in the military camp, and the military camp arranges work for them."

"In addition, the soldiers who died in this battle brought their bodies back and buried them with great burial. The enemy's corpses were burned on the spot. All the prisoners were brought back to Zhoujiang City."

"Yes." Hearing this, Yang Zhi immediately took the order with excitement on his face. He was able to fight head-on under the three-fold gap and achieve such a record. It is enough to show that Wang Han's training is so skillful that his army will definitely be a top-notch army in the future, and it will not be a dream to counterattack Xixia and Liao Kingdom in the future.

"Wu Song." Wang Han ordered Wu Song again: "Select one hundred smarter soldiers immediately and go up the mountain with me to wipe out the remnants of Hualong Mountain bandits."

"Yes." Hearing this, Wu Song immediately accepted the order.
