Chapter 1053: Karmic Fire
As for the Tang Army's means of attack, Huang Degong was fully prepared. While climbing the hill, he was surprisingly not attacked at all, and now, the target was ahead. Then the opponent's means of attack will be clearer.
He saw several trebuchets arranged by the other side, but they were obviously aimed at the opponent attacking Guangshui City, and it was a support for Guangshui City. Useless to them now.
Ordinary feathered arrows are of little use to their heavy armor, even if they are pierced into hedgehogs, they can still carry these feathered arrows forward, and the ones that can kill them are strong crossbows, and then fierce fire oil bombs.
But above this distance, Huang Degong felt that he could completely withstand a wave of blows, and as long as half of the five hundred heavily armored soldiers rushed to the enemy's position, they could completely disrupt all the arrangements of the other party, and then wait for Xu Yong's large army to rush up. As long as you go up by yourself, even if you use the tactics of adding oil, you can use a small price to consume the opponent alive.
The so-called turtle formation is really like a turtle with a shrunken head. The large shield in front protects the whole body, and at least three rows of large shields ensure the thickness, even if it is hit head-on by a strong crossbow, it is difficult to cause any damage to the second layer after penetrating the first layer of large shields. It also has a large shield on top of its head, which can defend against opponents throwing stones, and can even minimize the threat of fierce fire bombs.
Fifty paces is only a distance, even at their turtle speed, which is not an unreachable distance.
The heavily armored soldiers shouted their trumpets, trying to keep everyone's footsteps in unison, so as to make the tortoise formation more solid.
The screech of a powerful crossbow was heard in the air.
Sure enough, these are the routines.
Huang Degong thought a little proudly, and through the gap in the big shield above his head, he saw a black and fierce fire oil bomb flying in the air.
Almost at the same time, the crossbow slammed down on the first giant shield, and at such a distance, each of the flat-fired crossbows hit its target.
But as Huang Degong predicted, more than a dozen strong crossbows only killed more than a dozen of his shield-wielding soldiers.
The fire bomb landed on the large shield overhead, exploded, and burned. Because of the shield, most of the fire was kept out.
Once again, the second wave of attacks was reversed.
This time it was completely different from the threat of a fierce fire bomb, the sound of violent explosions and smoke rose up, and the eyes could not see for an instant, only the sound of swishing could be heard, and the screams kept ringing.
Huang Degong's heart sank slightly.
What is this?
This is a grenade. The Northland Tang Army has just put into the army a batch of experimental products, and each unit is not equipped much.
Huang Degong thought that this was the strongest attack of the Tang Army, but this was just a stepping stone.
When the continuous attacks of crossbows, fierce fire bombs, and grenades finally cracked open this turtle shell, a new round of special weapons flew out and landed in the country of the already somewhat messy lineup.
Explosions, flashes of fire.
One of the heavily armored soldiers noticed a miserable white fire on his arm, and he slapped his hand with some consternation, and then he found that his own hand was also burning. He panicked, and dropped his weapon with his other hand, desperately trying to extinguish the white flame in his hand, but this one also burned.
He screamed, fell to his knees, and slapped his hands on the ground repeatedly, but the miserable white flames showed no sign of abating.
It burned like a maggot attached to a bone.
He raised his hands and screamed loudly, his voice filled with fear.
Huang Degong found that his turtle formation had completely fallen apart.
Their bodies were more or less burning with that miserable white flame.
This is not a fierce fire oil.
It is true that the fierce fire oil cannot be extinguished, and it is very poisonous, but there is still a way to extinguish him with a small area of fire. And what he can't understand now is that there is only a small area on the body of some soldiers who are burning, but as these soldiers slap, the scope of the burning is getting bigger and bigger. As soon as any part of the body comes into contact with these miserable white flames, it will be ignited immediately.
What is it?
Huang Degong shouted.
Once again, dozens of black things flew through the air.
There was a boom and a volley exploded in the air, and then Huang Degong saw countless stars falling from the sky, enveloping all the five hundred people they gathered together.
If it's in the night house, these sparks will definitely look good.
But good-looking things are often deadly.
The sparks in the sky fell on these people, and in an instant, a miserable white flame burst out.
Huang Degong looked at an officer opposite, the man's face was already surrounded by miserable white flames, he reached out and scratched wildly, and the heart-rending screams made Huang Degong's heart break.
Because he saw that the man stretched out his hand and scratched his face stiffly, but the miserable white flames still came out of the blur of flesh and blood, burning.
"Help, General, help!" Several soldiers rolled to the ground wailing, and with every word they shouted, this miserable white flame erupted from their mouths, noses, and ears.
Huang Degong regressed again and again.
"Hellfire, hellfire!" He shouted loudly, and his courage was destroyed in an instant after seeing such a scene.
In an instant, only a few dozen of the five hundred heavily armored troops remained, and these people happened to be in the corners of the last two columns of the line.
Seeing that almost all of them had become humanoid torches, these people could no longer bear it, threw away their weapons, and ran down the hill with rolling belts.
Dressed in heavy armor, they couldn't run fast at all, and after a few steps, they fell heavily to the ground, and these people simply didn't bother to get up, curled up, and rolled down like this. Every now and then there was a thud as they slammed into the rotten rocks.
But as soon as they had a breath left, they got up again, ran down, fell again, rolled again, and repeated the last move.
Huang Degong is also running.
I didn't run two steps, one leg tightened, and when I looked down, I was hugged by an officer on my left leg.
"General, help me!" Half of the man's body was shrouded in miserable white flames, and as soon as he opened his mouth, there were balls of flames erupting from his mouth and nose, which was an officer that Huang Degong valued very much, but at this time, he was only frightened in his heart, because he saw that the miserable white flames spread from that person's body all the way to his left leg.
With a shout, he raised his right foot and kicked the officer hard, and the officer was kicked into the air, but it was this kick that made Huang Degong's right foot burn.
Huang Degong fled quickly down the mountain.
I have to say that unlike ordinary soldiers, he is wearing heavy armor, but he can still control his body and run fast.
Leaning against a rock, Huang Degong gasped heavily. Looking at the two burning calves, he pulled out the dagger with a swish, broke the bundle of the leg armor on the calf, threw the burning leg armor away with the dagger, and shaved off the boots on his feet. The boots hadn't burned through for a while, leaving both of his feet intact, but his calves were burning, because the fire had burrowed through the gaps in the leg armor.
Huang Degong gritted his teeth and screamed, and the dagger was slashed flatly, cutting off a thick layer of muscles on his calf. As the layer of flesh was sliced off, the white flames left his calf.
Seeing that it worked, Huang Degong was overjoyed, and with another dagger, he cut off a layer of the part on the other leg that was on fire. However, the left foot burned a little longer, and one layer was cut off, and the miserable white fire could still be seen, gritting his teeth, and cutting another layer, this time, the side leg bone was also clearly visible.
But to his delight, he finally didn't see that kind of flame.
Blood splattered everywhere.
And the miserable white flames burned faintly even in a pool of blood.
Huang Degong tore off a piece of underwear vigorously, wrapped it around his calf in the bloody ancient winter, stood up with some difficulty, and fled down the mountain.
He didn't dare to look back.
Because in the place where he had just fled, hundreds of his men howled horribly.
Xu Yong's department at the foot of the mountain had just started the formation, and a group of more than 1,000 soldiers were already preparing to climb the mountain, but the scene that happened on the mountain made them stunned.
The successive attacks that were ready to be launched immediately also came suddenly.
Huang Degong ran down the mountain, but before he could run to these people, he had already fallen to the ground with a bang, and a large amount of blood loss finally made this fierce general no longer able to support it.
Some soldiers rushed forward and helped Huang Degong, a team of 1,000 people, quickly retreated.
On the mountain, Liu Yuan, Qin Scar, and their subordinates all stood up, looking at the heavily armored soldiers who were screaming and rolling not far from them, the look in their eyes, from the initial joy to the current solemnity, slowly, also turned into fear.
They only knew that this special ammunition was called a white phosphorus bomb, but they could never have imagined that the power of the white phosphorus bomb after the explosion was actually like this.
There was no sound left, but the miserable white fire was still burning silently and faintly.
Five hundred heavily armored soldiers, even in the face of the Tang Army's Mo Dao Guard, also have the strength to fight, but on this small hill, they died silently and did not stir up the slightest wave.
Xu Yong immediately withdrew his troops. The five hundred heavily armored soldiers on the mountain died too miserably, which was too big a psychological blow to his subordinates, and it was obviously inappropriate to attack again.
A possible big war, just begun, is over.
Liu Xinda looked at Huang Degong, who could barely see a few taels of meat on his two calves, and listened to Huang Degong's trembling echo, and was silent for a long time.
On the top of the mountain, I don't know how long it took, the miserable white flames finally disappeared completely, and Liu Yuan and Qin Scar walked over cautiously.
The person is gone, the body is gone, and the body cannot be found.
Liu Yuan stretched out the horizontal knife in his hand and picked up a pair of heavy armor, and a gust of wind blew, and the gray-white dust suddenly rose.
This is not dust, this is the ashes of those enemies.
"Fuck it!" Liu Yuan scolded and looked back at Qin Scar, who was also looking at him in horror.
"How many more of these things do we have?"
"Not much, just two more boxes. Less than a hundred. Qin Scar said.
"Dig a deep pit for me, put it in, manage it well, and don't go out of the water!" Liu Yuan's voice trembled a little.
