Chapter 913: The Death of a Famous General
Yanghu raised the sword in his hand, and under the light of the torch, Yanghu's back looked extraordinarily tall, and he shouted in a deep voice: "I am invincible, kill!" ”
"I'm invincible! Win! Win! The state army shouted in unison, the uniform voice was particularly majestic and powerful, the war drums also rumbled, and the state army launched a full-scale general attack.
The whole early battle was to pave the way for the general attack at this moment, as night fell, the attack of the state army finally reached a climax, all the men and horses have been assembled, and the state army lit countless torches, shining the whole valley like day, they took a solid and powerful step, and rushed towards the position of the Sima army in front.
Sima Jun was like a great enemy, they had been squeezed to the foot of the West Mountain, and there was no way to retreat, so they could only be forced to fight.
In order to expose the situation of the army, Sun Li ordered the Sima army not to light torches and fight in the dark.
Lighting a torch during a night battle is actually a pros and cons, lighting a torch is easy to expose the target, and it is rare to light a torch during a surprise attack, but in a head-to-head confrontation like this, lighting a torch helps to see the direction of the attack, so that your army has more confidence when attacking.
Sima Jun drilled in the dark, in fact, it is also a manifestation of lack of confidence, in fact, Sun Li also wants to fight with the Bingzhou Army in a dignified manner, but with the current state of Sima Jun, the strength does not allow it.
The Bingzhou army rushed over quickly, and Sun Li ordered Sima Jun to open his bow and release arrows to block the attack of the Bingzhou army.
However, after the order was issued, only sporadic arrows were fired from Sima Jun's side, which could not effectively kill the Bingzhou army at all.
It's not that the archers in the Sima army's ranks, the key is the one-and-a-half-stone strong bow used by the Sima army's archers, and under normal times, there is no problem in opening the bow and shooting arrows, but now that the Sima army is exhausted, these archers simply don't have the strength to pull the bow, even if they barely pull a half-bow, the arrows shot out are weak and weak, and the range is not up to the requirements at all.
It's not that Sima Jun's archers don't work hard, but it's true that they really don't have the strength.
Sun Li sighed, it seems that this battle has not yet started, and his side is already doomed to failure.
The arrows of the state army are strong and powerful, the sound of swishing breaking the sky, it seems to be able to cut through the darkness of the night sky, although the Sima army is hiding in the night, but this does not prevent the shooting of the crossbow soldiers of the state army, the most important thing is that the team of the Sima army is too dense, and the state army only needs to shoot forward, every arrow is shot, almost the arrow is not in vain, the Sima army screams in the array, and there are countless arrows.
Even when the state army attacked, it directly used rockets, that is, tied strips of cloth stained with oil to the shaft of the arrow, ignited and launched, and the rockets were like bright fireworks.
This is the method adopted by Yanghu temporarily, isn't Sima Jun hiding in the dark, trying to make the Bingzhou army unable to see the truth clearly, then I will send you a row of rockets to reveal your true form.
Yanghu's trick is still quite effective, the oil-stained rocket into Sima Jun will not be extinguished immediately, if it encounters something that ignites fire, it can also cause a raging fire, Sun Li's plan to hide in the dark was completely destroyed by Yanghu.
Encountered a rocket attack, caused chaos in the Sima army, ordinary bows and arrows were killed and injured at most, but the rocket is different, not only has the same lethality as ordinary bows and arrows, but also can form a fire in the Sima army array, many Sima soldiers' clothes are on fire, under such a dense formation, it is easy to burn up in a row, Sima Jun is busy fighting fires, and the original messy formation is naturally more chaotic.
At the same time as the state army released arrows, it did not stop the pace of attack, seeing that the Sima army's formation was in chaos, they accelerated the pace of the attack, and in an instant, the state army had already killed the front, and rushed into the Sima army's formation like a bamboo, slashing and killing it wantonly.
This is almost a battle without suspense, the two sides are very close at the moment in terms of strength, but in terms of combat effectiveness, there is a world of difference, and the state army is extremely brave, like a tiger out of the forest, unstoppable.
But Sima Jun was weak and languishing, even if many of them wanted to pick up weapons and fight hard, but when they raised their swords and guns, they found that the weapons in their hands were many times heavier than usual, let alone killing the enemy, and even the strength to lift it was almost gone.
So how to deal with the battle in such a state, and the state army rushed up, and the general operation of chopping melons and vegetables killed Sima Jun is corpses all over the field, and blood flowed like a river.
Many Sima soldiers simply threw away their weapons and surrendered, but they couldn't be defeated anyway, and if they surrendered, they might be able to save their lives.
However, in the dark night, how could the red-eyed Bingzhou army tell who was resisting and who was surrendering, regardless of 3721, slashing and killing all the way, many Sima soldiers who wanted to surrender also fell in the chaos.
The process of the battle was quite fast, and the Sima army, which had lost the ability to resist, had no way to retreat, but it could only be slaughtered, but in a moment or two, the position of more than 10,000 people of the Sima army had been killed by the state army, and in addition to sporadic resistance, the Sima army was close to the annihilation of the whole army.
Sun Li had the determination to fight to the death, but the army under his command was really not strong, so that the battle showed signs of one-sidedness, Sun Li personally went into battle, and beheaded several people in the state army, but such efforts were a drop in the bucket, and they were unable to recover the decline.
Sun Li's cronies around him saw that the battle situation was irretrievable, so they advised Sun Li to go up the mountain as soon as possible to avoid the edge of the state army.
Although the mountain is already overcrowded, no matter how crowded it is, it is impossible not to have a place for Sun Li and a few others, originally Sun Li stayed to boost morale and prevent the morale of the army from falling apart, but it seems to be useless.
Sun Li sighed secretly, at this moment, the battlefield has already been defeated, thinking that he has fought for many years, and has won countless victories, although he has lost battles, he has never been as miserable as today.
He could have retreated, but he had sworn to fight to the death before, did he really break his promise and gain weight?
Sun Li is a person who attaches great importance to honor, but he is afraid that after this battle, he will spare his life, but he will never be able to raise his head again.
Just as Sun Li was hesitating, a cold arrow suddenly shot out of the darkness, impartial, and hit Sun Li's throat.
A generation of famous generals has fallen.
