Chapter 8: Counter-Charge
This night, all the soldiers were recuperating, and they were really ready for tomorrow morning's counter-charge, and the slave camp I was in was still the same, I saw that the people on patrol had already rested, so I said to Tie Lei next to me: "Brother, do you want to live tomorrow?" ”
Tie Lei, who was napping, was awakened by my sudden moment, a little dazed, and I continued: "I said, do you want to live in the battle tomorrow? ”
"Yes, of course I do, but it's impossible, the chances are almost zero. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info "Tie Lei heard it and returned.
"If you believe me, then you follow me, and tomorrow I promise to keep you alive, by the way, you have been in prison for a long time, is there anyone you can rely on, trust? Call them all, follow me tomorrow, and the chances of survival will be greater. ”
"Do you have an idea? Thunder. Tie Lei sat up and asked me.
In fact, I haven't made up my mind now, when I was escorted into the headquarters during the day, I think the enemy's camp took a look, the opponent's defense work is not perfect, and there are not many people patrolling, it seems that the victory in these days has greatly relaxed the vigilance of the enemy, and the enemy's entire army is heavily armed, which is not conducive to their mobility, once the enemy carries out a counter-charge, it will inevitably bring unnecessary trouble, and the outpost in the enemy camp is the most heavily defended place, where dozens of artillery pieces are located, The left flank seems to be used as a channel for logistical output, so there is not much defense. If a counter-charge is carried out, the enemy's musketeers and demon attack troops can reinforce the outpost as soon as possible, but everyone attacks the outpost then it becomes a live target, so a few of us want to break through on the left flank and make a cut, once we break through and come back from the counter-kill, we will definitely make the enemy's position chaotic. However, all this is also hypothetical, and we can only see the enemy's arrangement after the battle starts tomorrow.
"If you have an idea, believe me, I will be able to bring you to life. As long as you listen to me, don't ask anything else. ”
"Okay, Lei, I believe you, anyway, I'll die, so I'll leave my life to you." Tie Lei gritted his teeth and said in a hard voice.
", yours is your own, keep it, we still have to the **** people in the Kingdom of Sardinia."
"Okay, Ray, the people in this room are all acquaintances with me in prison, and they all have a good relationship and can be trusted."
I looked at the dozen or so people in the room and asked, "Tie Lei, are there any of them with excellent marksmanship?" ”
"Yes, do you see the one sleeping over there? His name is John? Prague, who used to be a hunter, has excellent marksmanship, is proficient in muskets, bows, crossbows, etc., what's wrong? Tie Lei pointed to a bearded man who was sleeping in the innermost part of the room.
"Okay, tomorrow tell him to follow me, you are not allowed to attack without my orders, save your strength and crossbow arrows, I will be useful."
"He only has a longbow with him, do you need me to help him get a musket tomorrow?"
"No, tell him, it's good to get more arrows tomorrow, the smoke of the musket is too big, and the accuracy of the hit rate is not good, and the front-loading musket is difficult to load, once the gun is easy to expose, so I still use a bow and arrow, and I will give him two pots of arrows tomorrow." (In ancient times, a quiver pot had about thirty arrows, and the West didn't know about it, but the Chinese ones probably did this, so two pots of arrows were sixty.) )
…………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………
The next morning, with the whole army in battle, the monoculars of Louisna stood at the outpost, commanding the troops, and the slave camp where I was serving became the vanguard to attract fire to the whole army. And now, I'm not in the mood to think about anything else, everything is on the battlefield, watching the situation. I hope that all the enemy troops will be able to return to the outpost......
I looked behind me, and after last night, more than a dozen people had decided to follow me, and this group of people were all standing next to me and Tie Lei. I whispered to Tie Lei, "I will tell the brothers in a moment, everyone should not rush forward, follow the left flank of my net, and wait for me to follow me close to the front of the enemy's army, and remember, do not rush forward, otherwise you will become a live target." ”
"Yes, got it." Iron Thunder turned back to convey my orders.
"All the warriors of Sri Lanka, kill the bunch of crumbs on the other side, and I am waiting for you to come back and celebrate the wine." Louis shouted to the whole army, "Brothers, rush to the enemy camp and kill the sons of in Sardinia." Charge!!! ”
The whole army roared like a chicken in Louis's impassioned shout, and the chess officer opened the city gate and ordered our slave camp to charge forward: "You lowly slaves, charge forward, only by charging forward can you be free, rush!! ”
Saying that, all the slave camps rushed forward with weapons in hand, and at this time the enemy outpost found that the slave camp of our army charged forward, and quickly returned, all the musketeers and magic attack troops moved to the outpost, and the enemy's artillery began to carry out the first round of attacks on our side, and in an instant, dozens of people in front fell in the artillery fire, with stumps everywhere, and the wounded were lying in the place wailing, a thousand meters...... 800 meters...... Six hundred meters, the enemy's magic attack force began to attack, fireballs, ground thorns, ice blades, earth walls emerge in an endless stream, the magician needs to cool down an attack, brewing the next round of attacks, and at this time the slave camp has entered the musket shooting range, the muskets here are all front-loading muskets, and the barrel is not rifled, so the range is very close only about three hundred meters, and it is also very troublesome to replenish ammunition, so the enemy musketeers use echelon attacks, at this time, all the enemy musketeers and magic attack troops have reinforced the outpost, And at this time the left flank defense was empty.
"It's now, Tie Lei, take someone with me!!" Seeing the opportunity, I shouted loudly at Tie Lei, and with that, I led Tie Lei and dozens of people in Prague to charge to the left flank. At this time, at the opening of our army, Louis saw the dynamics of our small force through the monoculars, and the adjutant general Torre next to him said to Louis: "General, you see, those dozen people did not charge forward, do they want to escape, do you need me to lead people to kill?" ”
"Escape? There are wolves in front and tigers in the back, where are they fleeing? I don't think so, let's see, order the troops, the slave camp has entered the range of the enemy's attack, order the cavalry to attack, and the infantry to suppress it. After Louis gave the order, he continued to observe the movements of Lei Wentao and the others, and Louis was very curious about him at this time, at this time, he either wanted the sword to go off the edge or was afraid of death.
As our group sprinted quickly to the left flank, I shouted at Prague, "Do you see two men on the watchtower?" Kill them, and everyone else breaks through the left flank defense and rushes out. ”
Prague looked at the two men on the watchtower, who were only paying attention to the forward position, and did not see that there was already an enemy below who was preparing to break out, and he had already been marked with a book of life and death.
"Whoosh...... Whoosh" Prague quickly pulled the bow and arrows, and shot two sharp arrows in a row, all of which hit the enemy's throat, I subconsciously touched my neck, good guy, shot two arrows in a row at a distance of one hundred and fifty meters, and all of them hit the enemy's throat, this accuracy, lethality and speed, fortunately now he is my teammate.
Just after Prague fired two arrows, Tie Lei and I quickly led people to attack the left flank defense line, and at this time, the left flank defense line was empty, only dozens of people and two artillery, the artillery saw that the left flank defense line was being broken through, and was about to turn the muzzle of the gun "whoosh...... Sou...... Sou...... Whoosh" Prague shot four arrows quickly, killing the enemy artillery, I threw away the broken iron sword in my hand, took out my eight-sided sword from the space ring, and slashed together with the enemy, Tie Lei picked up a shield, and the sword in his hand slashed at the enemy's head, and our unexpected enemy was in chaos.
"Pretty!! Who commanded this? There are still such talents in the slave camps? Torre, bring these men to me when the war is over, and I want to see who commands the battle. And all this is in Louis's eyes. This counter-charge was well done, attacking quickly, and the enemy was in chaos, but Sardinia's army was also well-trained, and it only reacted a little and began to carry out an organized counteroffensive, coupled with the disparity in strength, the Sardinian vanguard army was dominated by heavy soldiers, and the first wave of attacks of the Fire Dragon Knights were mainly slaves and light cavalry, so the disparity in strength was very large, and the Sardinian troops were pinned down in the forward position, because the two armies were short and the enemy's artillery, magic attack troops and muskets were no longer useful. "Order the vanguard to hold the enemy, the hoplites to attack in the middle, and the hoplites to outflank and flank on both flanks to quickly break through the enemy's defensive line." Louis gave the order steadily and calmly: "Order our artillery to move forward and open fire on the enemy's central camp." ”
"Tie Lei, don't fall in love with the war, take the people to break through quickly and grab their war horses." As I spoke, I rode a war horse, and Tie Lei, Prague and others immediately got on their horses and quickly rushed out of the encirclement.
"......Huh" I reined in my war horse and finally broke out of the enemy's encirclement, and Tie Lei and the others also gasped: "Lei, I believe you are the best choice I have made in my life." Hahaha, I didn't expect that the slave camp was born to be cannon fodder, and we survived. ”
"yes, yes, I didn't expect that."
"Yes, I'm still holding the mentality of dying, it's really blessed by God!!"
Everyone admired me even more sincerely, and their eyes flashed with gratitude, and although Prague didn't say much, he still held the bow and arrow in his arms and said to me: "Thank you." "But I know that from now on, Prague and Tielei have really begun to make me a friend with their lives.
I smiled and looked back at the position, the two armies were fighting fiercely, and our army's light cavalry and slave camps were obviously suppressed, and the hoplites and cavalry were reinforcing to launch a flanking attack, Sardinia's army deserved to be an ace force, it was made by such a counter-charge, it was able to reorganize the counterattack in just one round, well-trained, and the Fire Dragon Knights were not bad, but in short, there was a huge disparity in strength, after all, the entire regiment of the Fire Dragon Knights was only more than 8,000 people, and the Sardinian vanguard army exceeded 10,000 people.
"Tie Lei, everyone go back with me and give Sardinian a counter-killing." I said to Iron Thunder.
"Uh...... Ray, we finally broke through, why do we have to go back? Tie Lei asked.
