"Archer, put!" Qin Yiming ordered.

The sound of firearms and bows and arrows was enough to resound throughout the valley, and the sound of shouting and killing echoed in the valley.

"Fight back!" There are also a lot of arrows flying over in the thief army, but the soldiers on the city pass are condescending, and there are also wall battlements to protect, and there are few injuries, on the other hand, the enemy in the canyon is the first naked target.

The men and horses led by the Taiping King had already lost more than 100 people before they ran to the city pass.

"King Sweeper, this firearm is too fierce, let's withdraw first, today the officers and soldiers are on guard, we only have enough people to sneak attack, I'm afraid it won't work if we really rush the pass, this is a waste of the old battalion's men and horses!" King Taiping looked at the corpse lying on the ground, and his heart hurt, what he brought out today are the elite of the old camp.

The sweeping king actually understands, but he is not reconciled, and he is just a little bit short of a move.

"Stop the attack, retreat a mile, and wait for the army to arrive before attacking!" The Sweeper shouted.

Qin Yiming saw that these people retreated and disappeared into the night, he knew that today was just a tentative sneak attack by the enemy, and tomorrow maybe the real bloody battle was coming.

"Leave a couple to guard, and the rest go back to sleep, recuperate and recuperate, tomorrow will be a tough battle!" Qin Yiming commanded.

"Yang Lezi, I am grateful to you today, otherwise the consequences will be unimaginable!" Qin Yiming said to Yang Baihu, but Yang Baihu was worried.

"My lord, I'm afraid we will have a bloody battle, this thief is extremely cunning, not an ordinary thief, I am afraid that we are not well prepared!" Yang Baihu said.

"What do you mean?" Qin Yiming asked.

"This is the most suitable place for defense, but we may not have enough arrows and **, if there are too many thieves."

Early the next morning, a long line of peasants entered the gorge, and they stopped a mile away from Wuyang Pass.

"My lord, look, the thieves are coming." Yang Baihu said.

Qin Yiming also saw it and said, "It seems that the main force of the thief army has arrived." ”

The whole peasant army was pressed by the black, crowded in this long and narrow valley, and the further they went, the longer the line was pulled into a triangular shape, and at this time the sound of drums came from the peasant army, shaking the whole valley.

"Hehe, there are so many people in my righteous army, I see how the official army defends!" King Taiping looked at the officers and soldiers on the pass and smiled proudly.

The sweeping king said solemnly: "Take the pass for me within half a day, let's go south to Huguang, eat fragrant and drink spicy!" ”

"It's going to take a long time, sweeping king, you look at the only a few people on the pass, maybe as soon as we attack, they will be scared away." King Taiping smiled.

"Go, call for a shout, make them surrender, we will spare them from death!" The king of Taiping commanded to go down.

Two hundred paces away from the pass, a thief shouted: "Listen to the officers and soldiers at the head of the city, our two kings have said, let you disarm and surrender, and let us clear the customs, otherwise our righteous army will attack the city pass, and you will not be able to surrender when the time comes..... And that's it."

Sou

An arrow flew from above the city pass and plunged directly into the throat of the peasant army, and before the peasant soldier could finish speaking, he fell to the ground, and the blood flowed into the arid earth, moistening a small patch of earth.

An instantaneous thing, but it gave the thief army a big blow to morale, this is two hundred steps away, such a distance of an arrow to seal the throat, the deterrent effect should not be underestimated, causing a commotion in the thief army.

"His grandmother's, toast and don't eat and drink, kill me! Not a single one to stay! When the king saw that the ranks were beginning to stir, he ordered the infantry to rush and kill them, so that this fear would not spread.

This side of the city.

"Yang Baihu is Yang Baihu, he can go straight to his throat two hundred steps away, it's really powerful!" Qin Yiming praised, watching those peasant armies start to attack the city and ran over.

"My lord has talked about it! Archers bird gunners prepare. Yang Baihu ordered.

"Put!"

Bang bang bang

Whoosh

The rain of spears and arrows slanted down from the top of the city, and at this time even a blind man could hit someone, because there were too many people below. The peasant army uses a cone formation, which is also the most commonly used infantry offensive formation in the era of cold weapons, the cone formation, that is, there are fewer people in front, but the more people go to the back, the biggest advantage of this formation is to trap the formation, like a bayonet sharp to insert into the enemy's phalanx, disrupt the enemy's formation, lead to the irrational movement of the enemy, and finally achieve victory. Moreover, under the terrain conditions of Wuyang Pass, this formation is undoubtedly the most appropriate.

Rules-speaking, Qin Yiming is the first time to personally experience a large-scale battle of cold weapons, watching the peasant army below rush to kill in formation, he also sees some weaknesses, that is, obviously, the distance between the peasant army is too large, if he has a cavalry, it is estimated that it is easy to scatter them, but he understands that these people are just cannon fodder, and the old battalion has not yet been dispatched.

"Archers, shoot me hard and suppress the officers and soldiers on the city!" King Taiping shouted.

Although the firepower on the head of the city was very dense, the peasant army, which had an absolute advantage in numbers, still rushed to the bottom of the city, and there were many of them, and everyone began to push the city gate against the firepower on the head of the city.

"One, two, three, push!" Dozens of people piled up under the city gate, and everyone pushed the city gate with all their strength, so that the city gate creaked, and they thought that they had heard the sound of the door latch bursting, so they became even more energetic.

"Drop the ** bag!" Yang Baihu ordered.

This kind of **bag, built-in**, the outside is wrapped by a quilt and other things, and the cotton cloth is soaked in fire oil, and after igniting the lead, the **bag is thrown down, not only explodes, but also the cotton cloth stained with fire oil splatters and scatters, and there will be a fire around it.

Qin Yiming knew that there was a more powerful weapon, 10,000 enemies, but 10,000 enemies needed a large number of **, and it was extremely bulky, and it could not be produced in large quantities, and more importantly, this kind of 10,000 enemies could only be used to defend the city, not to mention the narrow use, and the cost was too great, so it was not considered, but this kind of ** package was economical, and the average military household could make it, and it could be produced quickly and in large quantities, and the power should not be underestimated.

Under an order, more than a dozen lit ** bags were thrown to the crowd, and then under the crowd of people, the crowd of people under the city pass, soon became a sea of fire, those peasant soldiers who were burned on their bodies wanted to roll to the ground to extinguish the fire on their bodies, but this was the way to lead the fire to their companions, and hundreds of people were burned up by the fire all of a sudden, screaming again and again, the fire man ran everywhere, and the people behind saw such a scary scene, they were shocked and retreated, for fear of setting fire to their bodies, so after being burned to death hundreds of people, The first wave of attacks was repulsed.

Soon, the peasant army came with a second wave of attacks, this time many of them were wet, and some of them even carried water bags, and they just prevented the people on the city gate from throwing fire on their heads.
