~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
When he won the first battle, the White Wolf Army was filled with joy, and Le Jin's face also showed an excited look. The Wolf-Tooth Flying Cavalry is a tried and tested strong soldier. Even he was defeated by this cavalry arrow and fought against the Youzhou cavalry and achieved such results. It was as expected that the powerful crossbow soldiers who were on the battlefield for the first time could give such great damage to the enemy cavalry, which surprised and excited Le Jin. But in the next moment, his expression turned serious.
The Youzhou army was hit by blows one after another, and its morale became increasingly depressed. In order to prevent morale from continuing to decline, it was in the end that it was unbearable for the battle. Gongsun Xu made a desperate bet and pressed over at full speed with two thousand frontiers.
This is the real test.
The front army of Youzhou Army was divided into three formations on the left, middle and right. More than 500 cavalry on both wings rushed out and fought with two hundred wolf-fanged cavalry. In the smoke and dust, only the arrows roared, the horses neighed and the sound of hooves was thundering, and it was difficult to tell the winner.
The horn of the Youzhou Army sounded, and a unit was divided from the central army and advanced in a formation of a vanguard. In front were large shields pushed by several people, followed by crossbow soldiers. The gap between the large shields was strong crossbows, swords, shield soldiers and spears and halberd soldiers.
After entering the range of 250 steps of powerful crossbows, the White Wolf Army began to fire. The crossbow arrows emitted from the tiger crossbow went through the air with a roar, harvesting life at will.
It seemed like a shower in the sky. The top 50 crossbow soldiers were divided into two rows of powerful crossbow wheels. With the help of the rapid winding of the machinery, the continuous attack was ensured. After each round, the shields in that area would be covered with arrows. From time to time, some people could not dodge the arrows and fell to the ground. The only thin breastplate of ordinary soldiers could not block the penetration of the crossbows, and some were even nailed to the ground by crossbow arrows. Subsequent soldiers immediately filled the gaps, striving to keep the formation intact. Therefore, in addition to the sound of wind, war drums, horns, shouts, buzzing of crossbow strings, roars of crossbow arrows, and hissings of crossbow arrows breaking through the air, and the sound of hitting the big shield, the screams of the arrow soldiers and dying moans were added.
As the Youzhou army continued to approach, when the distance between the two sides reached 150 steps, even the big shield could no longer withstand the penetration of the crossbow arrow. Under the fierce impact of the crossbow arrow, the big shield broke the plate and the soldiers behind the shield watched helplessly as the defense was broken, and the sharp arrows penetrated their bodies.
After the Youzhou army struggled to survive a hundred steps in the death zone, it was finally their turn to show their power.
The Youzhou Army had about 300 crossbow soldiers, including four to five stones and five stones of crossbow soldiers. When the crossbow soldiers shot, the three formations of the Youzhou Army had to stop. One was to re-arrange the whole team, and the other was to allow the crossbow soldiers to shoot on the strings.
When the Youzhou army crossbow soldiers came out to shoot, the White Wolf Army also poked out the crossbow bow from behind the shield and shot at the enemy crossbow soldiers.
Buzz —
A large number of black shadows and a small black clouds crossed over the battlefield. A rain sounded in front of the two armies, and the crossbowmen on both sides were injured to varying degrees. In comparison, the Youzhou army was even more injured because most of their crossbows were blocked by the White Wolf Sabre and Shield soldiers. The strong arrows emitted by the shooting tiger crossbow were basically no shields that could be blocked at a distance of 150 steps.
"The medical staff are on the bench, and the auxiliary soldiers are substituting." Le Jin's lips were slit in a line. Except for giving instructions from time to time, there was no unnecessary words.
As the two flags on the flying tower were fighting, the two medical soldiers in the logistics auxiliary team rushed into the formation. The injured and dead crossbow soldiers and sword and shield soldiers were carried to the temporary emergency tent behind the hill. The soldiers who had received basic training among the auxiliary soldiers were vacant for the substitute crossbow soldiers, picked up the tiger crossbow and continued to shoot.
Among all the troops, crossbow soldiers are the easiest to train. New soldiers can be fully competent in just ten or eight days of training. Of course, speed and accurate heads can only be tempered by multiple practical battles.
The crossbow soldiers on both sides were constantly injured and replenished, keeping the crossbow formation as intact as possible. The crossbow soldiers of Youzhou Army were six times that of the White Wolf Army. It was logical that the White Wolf Army had already been suppressed, but because the fire rate was several times different and the difficulty of opening the bow and turning the strings was slow, it was impossible to suppress only one team of White Wolf Crossbow soldiers during the diffusing.
Fifty vs. Three hundred, the density of the arrows of the White Wolf Army's powerful crossbows was significantly higher than that of the enemy, and the shooting gap was shorter, so the number of casualties caused by the enemy was also greater. In just one hundred steps, the fallen sword and shield soldiers of the Youzhou Army had no less than 200 crossbow soldiers. The White Wolf Army's powerful crossbow soldiers were almost replaced.
When both sides approach fifty steps, the crossbow will be suppressed by the bow and arrow - the rapid shooting of the bow and arrow and the projectile that exceeds the protection, which is enough to suppress any advanced crossbow at close range.
The flying tower finally raised the banner and ordered all the powerful crossbow soldiers to withdraw from the front positions. Below, there will be a duel between melee troops.
The White Wolf Army has not many melee forces, only four teams, namely one team of axe and hammer soldiers, two teams of sword and shield soldiers, one team of spear and halberd soldiers, and one team of close-range supportive archers, and the combat force is only 233 and 40 (the sword and shield soldiers have slight casualties).
In addition to more than 500 cavalry and two or three hundred soldiers who were killed and killed during the storm, there were still more than a thousand soldiers to fight. Among them, the three armies were all in front of the warriors, with a total of 800 soldiers, and there were no less than 400 auxiliary soldiers following behind.
Facing four or five times the enemy, can the White Wolf Army, who is on the battlefield for the first time, stand up? As the main general, Le Jin has no bottom at all. So he also put on scale armor, carried a knife on his waist, carried a short halberd, a leather shield in his left hand, and a spear in his right hand. When he left the command post, he issued the last order: "When the Youzhou Army lit up its first torch, it is time to retreat!"
As soon as they rushed to the distance of fifty steps, dozens of auxiliary soldiers rushed out from the left wing formation of Youzhou Army, pushing more than a dozen covered chariots, and rushed towards the protective piles. What greeted them was a rain of arrows. The auxiliary soldiers fell to the ground one after another, and then more auxiliary soldiers rushed out to take over the formation.
The archers of Youzhou Army also fought back. Another group of auxiliary soldiers braved the rain of arrows, dragging something similar to a rake plow to gather the caltrops connected to the ropes into a pile to clear the passage. Many enemy soldiers fell down next to the Jue Horse that penetrated deeply into the ground, and there were still Youzhou soldiers holding shields to cover the auxiliary soldiers to remove the Jue Horse.
Arrows on both sides were shot out, feather arrows flew all over the sky, and the soil under the hills was dyed red. In spring, the soil was moist and could not absorb so much "nutrient", and gradually accumulated into a blood pit of varying depths.
After rounds of confrontation and after many corpses were left along the way, the Youzhou Army finally broke out the last row of wooden stakes, and all the few archers left by the White Wolf Army retreated to the mound. They basically lost the power to fight again.
Seeing that the enemy's position had been broken through, the Youzhou Army's new forces continued to join in. The big shield collided with the big shield, and the spear and the long halberd stabbed each other, and the two sides began a close battle.
As soon as they fought, they were basically one-sided. The White Wolf Army had few spears and halberd soldiers, and they were shot by the previous enemy archers. Before they fought, the formation was already in decline. As soon as they fought with the enemy, the overwhelming impact formed by the superior force instantly broke the White Wolf Army's spears and halberd soldiers. If it weren't for nearly a hundred swords and shield soldiers, they would be afraid that no spears and halberd soldiers would be able to escape. The White Wolf Sword and Shield soldiers quickly fell into a craze several times that of the enemy.
In the long-distance battle, the White Wolf Army used its advantage of bows and crossbows to severely damage the Youzhou Army. However, when the two armies were in close combat, the White Wolf Army's spear, halberd, sword and shield soldiers and archers were not stronger than the Youzhou Army. On the contrary, because most of them were new recruits, they first went to the battlefield and faced the dominant enemy, and they quickly became frightened and could no longer withstand it. They were defeated.
At this time, we can see the powerful brainwashing function of the Hango tribe. Faced with such a crisis, no White Wolf soldier fled or surrendered, but retreated to the hill and re-arranged defenses.
At this time, the Youzhou army had broken out two guardrails, and the last one was ahead. Dozens of sword and shield soldiers of the White Wolf Army kept retreating, while hundreds of Youzhou soldiers rushed in like a tide, as if they were running a step slower. They would be flooded by this crowd.
Gongsun Xu was escorting the formation behind the army, full of ecstasy. As long as he rushed through the last guardrail, victory was in sight. When the war reached this point, there would be no formation, and there would be no need. Even the main general, he personally wore it into the battle.
No wonder Gongsun Xu was so anxious, because from time to time, his cavalry troops fought with the White Wolf Army cavalry, with heavy casualties, while the enemy lost very little. If he could not defeat the enemy's central army in the shortest time, once the enemy cavalry defeated the cavalry and rushed back to rescue, the Youzhou army would be in danger.
"Breaking through the last guardrail of the enemy, who can seize the enemy's Sima flag, upgrade to three levels, two titles of Jin, reward a hundred gold medals, and give a beautiful maid!" Gongsun Xu's long spear pointed at the long spear, and used all the energy of his chest and lungs to shout out the reward pattern. The left and right entourages retelled the reward pattern loudly, and the excited cheers of the soldiers of Youzhou Army rose one after another, and their fighting spirit rose sharply.
But at this moment, a new force suddenly emerged, suppressing the Youzhou Army's arrogance to the end.
A team of soldiers suddenly snatched out of the hills, all of whom were burly, thick armored, and invulnerable to swords and guns. They held a 15-pound long-handled axe hammer in their hands, and were invincible. As soon as they broke into the Youzhou military formation, they overturned more than a dozen large shields, and the small wooden shield was in half with an axe. The one hit by the heavy hammer was even more terrifying, and the wooden shield and his arms were shattered together.
This group of iron armored soldiers is simple and neat, smashing straight, slashing slanted, sweeping left and right. If they are really injured when they are rubbed, they will die when they hit. Under the axe and hammer sweeping, the sound of metal and iron intersecting is unaware of it. The broken sword and halberd fly all over the sky, and the broken shields fall all over the ground. It is as if the god of war possessed it, and the Pei cannot control it.
Many Youzhou soldiers tried their best to stab the ring-headed swords, short axes, long halberds, spears, and stab the iron armored soldiers, but they could not hurt any of them. In addition to the severe pain in the palm and wrist recoil, the result was a hammer in front of the head...
The Youzhou Army, which was like a tide, was suppressed by more than 50 iron-armored soldiers in the middle of this pillar, and it was difficult to advance in an instant, and even retreated step by step.
Le Jin rushed before this team of iron armored soldiers, with one hand and one hand spear, and the other hand, hitting the spear, like a crazy tiger. Just half a moment ago, he had killed thirteen people, the entire leather shield and half of his body were splashed with blood, and the spear rod was soaked with blood that it was sticky and slippery.
At this time, facing three long spears stabbed towards Le Jin, blocking had become an instinctive action. Holding the shield in the left hand, a spear penetrated into the abdomen of a person on the left. Kill the battlefield and breathe, Le Jin will not waste time drawing the spear. He quickly abandoned the spear and drew the sword. The person rushed forward and the knife followed him. With the force of the downhill, he slashed the second person's neck with a backhand, and blood spurted out, spurted Le Jin in his face, and the other party died instantly.
When the opponent's body was about to fall, Le Jin shielded the left side of the shield, and cut over the third enemy soldier who stabbed again with a long halberd. Then he jumped over to avoid the pricks of two spears beside him, smashed a halberd hand with the edge of the shield, slashed the knife, and wiped the other's neck - in the battlefield, often on the battlefield, he made subconscious actions based on his feelings, and whoever could make the most correct instinctive reaction would be able to survive to the end.
Because he rushed into the opponent's spear formation from a high position, Le Jin took advantage of it and cut seven or eight people in succession, and used his own strength to disrupt the local enemy formation.
When he reached the heart's end, Le Jin shouted happily and threw away the ring-headed knife that was chopping the rolled blade, and was about to pull out the short halberd. Suddenly, the enemy group split into the waves and rushed out, with a long spear like lightning, stabbing Le Jin quickly.
Le didn't get in and pulled out his halberd, and the shield tilted, and his body was blocked.
Bang! The tip of the spear flew over the leather shield diagonally. After the Le Jin grid was successful, he suddenly took action and grabbed the spear rod. At the same time, a white wolf sabre and shield soldier rushed down the slope, jumped up higher than the head of the horse, cut off the cavalry general's helmet with a knife, and then slashed the enemy's body with a shield. The enemy general was dismayed. After the sword and shield soldier landed on the ground, he held the helmet tightly in his hand.
The Youzhou Army exclaimed in unison: "Save the lieutenant!" He dragged the fallen general back to his formation with all his strength.
Le Jin looked at the long spear in his hand and thought of the "Capital Captain" called by the Youzhou soldiers. Hey! Could it be Gongsun Xu... It's a pity that it's too late.
At this time, the dusk was gathering. With the last glimmer of blood, Le Jin looked at the soldier who knocked down Gongsun Xu and shouted: "What's the name?"
"Return to Le Sima, his subordinate Yang Ji."
"The courage is commendable. This is Gongsun Xu's helmet. Please keep it for reward."
"Xie Lesima!"
At this moment, a long horn sounded at the hills and towers.
On the field, the rear array of Youzhou Army ignited a stark fire.
Night finally comes, is it the end of the killing or another beginning? (To be continued, please search for Astronomy, novels are better, updated and faster!
