Chapter 568: The Turtle in the Urn

Early the next morning, the rumbling war drums were shattered, and in the silence of the early morning, Kan Ling led an army of 10,000 to push all kinds of siege equipment and slowly marched towards the Wei army camp.

This time.

Catapults, siege crossbows, rushing cars, ramming rams, siege ladders, wells and other equipment are all available, just looking at the battle, it makes Shan Xiongxin and Fang Xuanzao frown, although they have a big array to help, but in the face of absolute strength, the formation is also not omnipotent. Especially for people who don't understand the formation, the death formation is a very mysterious thing, if it is filled with human lives, even 100,000 people are not enough. But for those who know the formation, it is actually not difficult to break the death formation. Especially when the hundreds of catapults were pushed to the front of the formation, the faces of the two became even more ugly.

Once within range, the catapult did not move any further, and boulders began to roar and fall in the direction of the camp.

"Boom Boom Boom~"

In the huge sound, a huge piece of air broke through the air, smashed the camp, the wooden wall was smashed out of a huge hole, and the car charged at the same time to the wall. I only heard a scream and wail, and groups of Wei soldiers were smashed into a blur of flesh and blood, and it was unbearable to see.

The entire walled wall continued to shake under the bombardment of catapults, Shan Xiongxin hurriedly held Fang Xuanzao, who almost fell, in the face of the Sui army's brutal and unreasonable offensive method, Shan Xiongxin already had a lot of combat experience, and could only say astringently: "Sir, what should we do now?" ”

"Boom!" A boulder the size of a millstone fell, and several Wei soldiers who couldn't dodge were smashed to pieces, along with the wall under them.

These days, the Wei army officers and soldiers urgently formed a formation, prepared not many equipment to defend the city, there are no stones for long-range shooting, and now they can't even take out the means to suppress the enemy's catapults, they can only be beaten passively in the camp, although the gravel fired by the catapults increases the attack surface and damage, but it can't cause damage to the enemy catapults

Fang Xuanzao looked at the more than 100 rushing cars that were constantly approaching under the cover of catapults and crossbows, and he knew that the target of these rushing cars was not the wall, but his dozen or so passages to kill the enemy, as long as this behemoth was pushed up, the walls and other arrangements on the passage would be thrown to the ground one by one.

"Let the soldiers retreat into the second camp and avoid the edge for the time being!"

When the camp was established, in order to delay time to the greatest extent, Fang Xuanzao built the camp very large, in order to avoid the loss of the camp, resulting in the loss of the whole situation, he divided the entire camp into three parts, each part can operate independently, once the enemy army seized the camp strongly, it quickly retreated into the second line of defense, one can avoid greater casualties, and the other is also to paralyze the enemy, after the enemy soldiers and horses are all put into the battlefield, it can cause greater lethality, but I didn't expect that the Sui army began to attack, in this extremely barbaric way, Forced them to abandon the first line of defense.

The inability to move is the deadliest disadvantage of the death formation, and if you change to a battle formation composed of soldiers, you can not only avoid violent attacks, but also quickly form a formation and fight again, making the enemy miserable.

"Okay!" Shan Xiongxin reluctantly agreed, and immediately gave the order.

"Woo woo woo~"

In the sound of the hurried horn, the Wei soldiers who were struggling to support them quickly retreated into the second camp along the pre-arranged escape route, which was not only out of the range of the Sui army, but more importantly, five or six feet higher than the first line of defense.

Once the enemy army has penetrated the first line of defense, it will find that this line of defense is excellent for external defense, but it is not defensive for the inside. When they get inside, they will be like a turtle in an urn in an urn city, when the Wei archers can easily attack, and the enemy army will not only face the arrows around them, but also face a dizzying route, unless they tear down all the buildings on the first line of defense, otherwise, breaking through this defense will not only not win, but will lead them into the abyss of despair.

Under the protection of Xu Shiren, Fang Xuanzao retreated into the second line of defense, looking at the first line of defense that was constantly destroyed under the destruction of catapults, his face was quite ugly, judging from the current brutal attack method, his second line of defense, I am afraid it would not last long, and said loudly: "Send more manpower, step up according to the formation map, and urgently build the third military camp." ”

"Whoa!"

。。。。。。。。。。。。。

On the lookout platform!

Yang Tong, Yang Qinfang, Yin Mingyue, Du Fuwei and others watched the Wei army's camp quickly fall under the fierce attack of their own side, Kan Ling had already waved his troops to attack, and easily attacked the opponent's wall, Yang Tong frowned, and said in a deep voice: "Something is wrong!" ”

"Why did the Holy One say that?" Du Fuwei looked at Yang Tong a little strangely, everything is going well, no problem.

"It's going too well, I always feel like there's a trap in there." Yang Tong shook his head, he had always been in awe of the formations and other esoteric things left by his ancestors. It doesn't feel like it should break so easily.

"Isn't it normal to go well? In the face of the bombardment of our army's various siege equipment in turn, what ability can Shan Xiongxin have to resist? Duvowe was even more dazed.

Yang Tong shook his head: "I just think it's wrong, but I can't say what's wrong, it stands to reason that Shan Xiongxin shouldn't be so bad." Moreover, although our catapults and siege crossbows are powerful, there is a long gap between rounds and rounds, which means that there is a bit of thunder and rain, and this kind of attack frequency will not make Shan Xiongxin powerless. ”

"Many of Shan Xiongxin's Wei troops are heavy soldiers, and yesterday they were killed all over the field by Mo Daomen, and it is inevitable that they will be cowardly, Shan Xiongxin may be worried about the collapse of the whole army, so he took the initiative to retreat to a safe distance." Duvowe gave his reasons.

Yang Tong stared at the Sui army that had invaded the camp, and it was not easy to say anything, he had already asked Kan Ling to be careful and careful before, but now it was useless to say anything, so he had to nod and say: "I hope so!" ”

At this moment, the soldiers in front of the enemy camp let out a burst of cheers.

Countless Sui troops rushed into the camp from the broken walls everywhere, they thought there would be a fierce battle, so as soon as they rushed in, everyone waved their weapons in their hands, but they were all cut down, and they found that what was left was an empty camp.

"This ...... What's going on? ”

One of the lieutenants looked at the empty surroundings with some confusion, and found that there was not a single enemy at all, except for the mess and some sparse corpses smashed by the catapult.

At this moment, more soldiers of the Sui army rushed in, and they looked at the empty camp, and they were also at a loss.

"Shoot the arrows!"

A loud shout suddenly sounded, but seeing a rain of arrows falling from the sky, a group of Sui soldiers were horrified, and wanted to find a place to avoid arrows, but this is a place carefully designed by Fang Xuanzao to destroy the enemy, how can there be a bunker at all? It's clean, like a boxy wooden basin.

"Puff~"

The sharp arrows that broke through the air didn't care whether the Sui army had cover or not, but in an instant, these soldiers of the Sui army who broke through the camp were shot into hedgehogs in a miserable scream, and they all fell in a pool of blood.

The soldiers outside didn't know the situation inside, they rushed into the camp under the command of Kan Leng, screaming, and then were constantly shot by the Wei soldiers, some of them escaped by luck, and hurriedly wanted to withdraw, but they faced the continuous influx of their own soldiers, where could they retreat.

When Kan Ling rushed in with his personal guards, he saw that the ground was full of dense corpses, and the sticky blood merged into small streams, flowing into deep pits, which were soon overflowing, and then flowed in all directions, like a pool of blood, and his own soldiers were being brutally hunted.

There was not a single obstacle here, and there was no way out, and the Wei army was not only protected by a baffle, but also blocked by a high wall, so they could only be hunted down one by one.

"Withdraw! Withdrawal! Kan Ling swung his Mo knife and knocked the arrows that shot at him away, while constantly shouting angrily.

"Woo!"

The sound of a desolate horn rang out, and it was Kan Leng's personal guards who informed the soldiers outside to retreat.

This is Yang Tong's backhand that day when he saw that the 5,000 Death Dare Team had gone and never returned, and he prepared for Kan Leng, and his careful move also made the soldiers outside no longer pour in, saving countless Sui army soldiers.

"Rush out with me!" Kan Ling roared wildly, there was no way to fight this posture, but after a quick glance, he found the sinister intentions of the layout of this military camp. At the same time, he also knew that the Wei army was not powerless to fight back, but dug a pit and waited for them to jump inside.

On the top of the walled tower, looking at Kan Leng's burly figure, Shan Xiongxin let out a sneer, pulled up the carved bow, squinted his eyes looked at the direction of Kan Leng's escape, and slowly pulled the bowstring to perfection.

Kan Ling, who was running, suddenly felt a chill all over his body, that feeling made him like a man's back, he looked rude, but he was extremely alert, this feeling was a lifetime, he knew that this was for the archer to target, he didn't have time to think about it, he quickly rolled to the ground, and grabbed a corpse to cover his back

"Poof~"

With the sound of a bowstring trembling, a cold arrow pierced through the corpse that Kan Ling used to block the arrow, Kan Ling jumped up and scolded angrily: "Despicable villain. ”

Shan Xiong's confidence is extremely regretful, archery is not his forte, so the aiming time is longer, so that Kan Leng, a strong man, is in danger of self-reliance, thus escaping a catastrophe, if it is replaced by Xu Shiji and Wang Bodang, Kan Ling has become a corpse. And if he missed this opportunity, Kan Ling must have been prepared, and his arrows will no longer be possible, so he shouted: "Shoot arrows at him!" ”

In an instant, the arrows became more dense, and the soldiers of the Sui army who rushed in were so pressed that they couldn't raise their heads.

"Break the wall!" Kan Ling threw down the corpse of a hedgehog in his hand, but his sharp eyes looked at the hole in the wall that was smashed out of the gap by the catapult, he saw that the board was not thick, so he simply took a few steps back, made a short sprint, and shouted angrily, the whole person seemed to be a predatory male leopard, and crashed into the wooden wall in the oblique thorn, the wooden wall exploded directly, and Kan Ling appeared unstoppably next door.

"Good guys!" Shan Xiongxin saw Kan Ling disappear suddenly, and the dense arrows were staring at the wall, and he was also stunned by Kan Leng's violent reaction, he had to admit that this violent way was much stronger than the way to change the gap to get out of trouble.

"Quick! Hide in. ”

Kan Ling breathed a sigh of relief, and slashed the wall of the door panel with four knives in a row, and then Mo Dao stabbed in the middle, pushing forward hard, and a huge shield was formed. The few remaining Sui troops took refuge one after another.

Some of the quick-reacting people did the same, either blocking arrows with corpses or cutting off pieces of 'shields'. ’

"All trebuchets, smash that shield!" Shan Xiongxin snorted coldly and shouted loudly.

"Crunch!"

In the dull sound of pulling and rubbing, the trebuchet that the Wei army had never used before finally exerted its power again, and the overwhelming rubble continued to smash on the huge shield, but the killing surface of the gravel was at the cost of the power of a huge stone, and its power was not enough to blast through Kan Leng's 'shield'.

Kan Ling breathed a sigh of relief, pierced the Mo knife through the 'shield', and struggled to carry it and slowly retreated, breaking off the remaining weak Sui army soldiers.

Shan Xiongxin sighed softly, and looked at the Sui army who had not yet escaped, the bowstring in his hand trembled again and again, and every time he could accurately take the life of a Sui army, and the soldiers around him did not kiss him!

"Enough!" Fang Xuanzao stopped loudly: "We don't have many arrows, just let these people go!" The fear of the camp will be brought into the Sui army camp with these people! ”

Shan Xiongxin nodded, silently put away his bow and arrows, and gave the order to stop releasing arrows.

This battle was finally won by their own side, and their own soldiers finally repelled the attack of the Sui army again, and the Sui army suffered such a big loss, and it should not come again today.

At that moment, he ordered people to clean up the battlefield, collect arrows, and rebuild the first camp, but the energy of the whole army was invested in the construction of the third camp, as for the first camp, there was no time to completely repair it, so it could only be simply re-erected as a buffer.
