Chapter 211: Pursuit
Seeing that the officers and men who were pulling the ropes were all in place, the catapult officer continued to order: "Stone loaders, all in place." Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info"
Hearing this, a group of officers and men immediately pushed the wooden cart, and on the cart were more than a dozen large stones loaded in baskets, that is, stone bullets in the officer's mouth, and pushed them to the side of the catapult, waiting for the officer's order.
Seeing that all the officers and men of the catapult were already in place, the officer nodded and turned his gaze in the direction of the temporary commander.
More than 300 officers and men of the three catapults were ready to shoot, and the archers who were mixed up in the pioneer battalion were also bent their bows and arrows and were ready to shoot, and all the officers and men of the temporary unit were silently waiting for the shooting order of the temporary commander.
Seeing that the officers and soldiers of the provisional forces below were ready, the temporary commander also immediately set his eyes in the direction of the Chinese troops in the rear, waiting for the order of General Chu Mo.
And Shi Zheng and Liu Hui saw the catapult pushed by the officers and soldiers in the distance, and they knew that the matter was completely big, and both of them were a little flustered, this is the legendary thunderbolt, a siege weapon, as long as it is hit by its stone projectile, even if it is lucky not to die, it will end up crippled.
Both of them couldn't help but make up the scene of stone bullets in their brains and smashed them on themselves, and they were smashed into a ball of flesh.
It's a chill to think about.
Rao is has always been calm governance, at this time can not maintain a calm look at all, you know, the status of catapults in ancient times, it is like the status of cannons in modern times, the name of the ancient god of war is not called nonsense.
I saw that Liu Hui's lips were a little trembling because of fear, and he said to the government beside him: "Shi... Governance, you see, this thunderbolt has been brought by these dog-day officers and soldiers, this is an iron determination to deal with us, you say, how should we deal with them? ”
Hearing Liu Hui's words, Shi Zheng could only sigh helplessly and said: "Platoon commander, it seems that we only have one way now, and that is to immediately abandon the position we are in and retreat backwards until we withdraw from the range of the thunderbolts." ”
Hearing the first suggestion of governance, Liu Hui thought for a while, and then said: "This may not be impossible, but if we go up the mountain so quickly, what will we do if the company commander gives us the task of delaying the speed of the attack of the officers and troops." ”
Listening to Liu Hui's words, Shi Zheng also thought about it, but if he didn't retreat, he couldn't, the other party even got something greasy like a catapult, could he still wait for the stone bullet to smash himself into flesh on this empty position?
Thinking of this, Shi Zhengden nodded, and then said to Liu Hui: "Okay, platoon commander, then we will retreat first, the company commander's task of delaying the attack time of the officers and soldiers can be solved by using the facilities I arranged on the mountain with the second squad before, and please rest assured that since the officers and soldiers dare to use weapons like thunderbolts, then don't blame me." ”
While explaining to Liu Hui, while administering the government, he thought viciously in his heart, since you dare to be the first year of junior high school, then we will also dare to be fifteen, hum, wait and see.
Hearing Shi Zheng's words, Liu Hui immediately nodded with Shi Zheng at the same time, and then used the walkie-talkie to convey this order, brought weapons and ammunition one after another, left the position with the second platoon, and retreated to the foot of the mountain in the rear.
Seeing the sudden retreat of the second platoon in the distance, Chu Modeng was so angry that he threw the telescope in his hand on the ground, and shouted hysterically: "Give me the order, now, immediately launch an attack on the rogues, quickly, don't let this damn gangs escape!"
As soon as Chu Mo's words came out, the horn suddenly sounded, and all the officers and soldiers sped up and rushed towards the distance with their thighs open.
"Woo!" The low and solemn sound of the horn suddenly spread from the Chinese army to all directions.
Hearing the sound of horns coming from the direction of the Chinese army, the temporary commander immediately ordered the officers and soldiers holding battle flags in the row in front of him: "Order the troops, start shooting!"
Hearing the order of the temporary commander, all the battle flag soldiers waved the battle flag in their hands one after another.
When the commanding officers of the catapult and archery units saw the temporary commander waving their battle flags, they immediately ordered the officers and men of their respective units: "The general has an order, start shooting!"
As soon as the commander said this, the officers and men of the three catapults pulling the ropes suddenly all exerted their strength in unison, shouted loudly, and threw the stone projectiles on the catapults in the direction of the second platoon position.
And the archers also released their bowstrings one by one, and flew the arrows off the strings towards the second platoon position.
Of course, the most eye-catching thing is, of course, the stone bullet, I saw three huge stones with a low cracking sound, smashing the second row of positions, making the surrounding earth seem to tremble.
"Boom, boom, boom!"
Only three loud noises were heard, and the soldiers of the second platoon turned back one after another, only to see that their original position had been shrouded in dust, and everyone couldn't help but feel a little afraid, if it weren't for the platoon commander and deputy platoon commander to lead them to retreat, they might have been a mess of meat now.
Everyone, who couldn't help but feel a sense of happiness for the rest of their lives, was also very grateful for the foresight of the platoon commander and deputy platoon commander.
Glancing at the position, all the soldiers of the second platoon took a big stride and rushed towards the foot of the mountain not far away, they did not want to be smashed into flesh by the huge stones.
Seeing that the position of the Black Gold Army in the distance was hit by stone bullets, a smile suddenly appeared on the face of the commander of the pioneer battalion, presumably, under this attack, such a damn rogue should also come out and surrender, right?
One second, two seconds, three seconds.
The commander of the pioneer battalion suddenly felt that something was wrong, there was no sound in the dark night in the distance, and there was a dead silence, which was completely different from the screams and cries for help that the pioneer battalion commander thought of in his mind.
Could it be that these rogues have already escaped?
The more he thought about it, the more wrong it became, and the pioneer battalion commander suddenly picked up the binoculars and looked in the direction of the second platoon position in the distance.
At this moment, because the dust of the three stone bullets was gradually dissipating, there was no one on the battlefield.
Seeing this scene, the vanguard battalion commander's face suddenly turned pale, and he was only heard shouting hoarsely: "Give me a chase for Lao Tzu, if you don't catch this group of rogues today, don't come back!"
Hearing the words of the pioneer battalion commander, the officers and men of the pioneer battalion immediately raised their weapons in their hands, rushed out of the shield array, and chased the soldiers of the second platoon in the distance who had fled.
Seeing that the officers and soldiers had launched a pursuit in the direction of the Liukou's escape, the vanguard battalion commander said to the herald with a dejected face: "Go back and tell the general, the shooting was fruitless, all the Liukou fled to the mountains, our army is launching an effective pursuit of them, and please rest assured that the subordinates will definitely hand over the head of the Liukou to His Excellency the General."
