Chapter 582: The Final Battle is Coming

The blazing sun hung high, and the light sprinkled on the position outside the city of Guizhou, and the corpses of the Zhennan soldiers in black military uniforms and the Song soldiers in gray coats were entangled, and they could no longer distinguish each other, and the corpses of the Song army's war horses and cavalry were lying a little farther away.

The battle, which began in the morning and continues to this day, has seen huge losses on both sides.

In the battle a few days ago, the Song army filled several trenches on the positions of the Zhennan army with human lives and various siege equipment, and the horses and barbed wire used to block the cavalry were also destroyed.

In the early hours of this morning, after Han Shizhong led the cavalry troops to charge fearlessly to death, the Zhennan Army finally encountered the biggest test since the founding of the army.

No matter when and where, the most feared thing for ranged troops is melee attacks, let alone the other side or armored cavalry?

If it weren't for the very high will to fight of the Zhennan Army, and many soldiers desperately detonated the grenades and explosives on the position, I am afraid that Han Shizhong's cavalry troops would have been able to chisel through the entire defensive line.

Li Nan, who had been standing at the head of the city and watching the battle, once wanted to give the order to use a hidden killer weapon for a moment, but was stopped by Tyrion beside him.

Tyrion had a good reason to stop Leenan.

Although Han Shizhong's charge this time was very fierce, in fact, he only brought 5,000 cavalry, and there were at least 10,000 iron cavalry hidden in the camp of the Song army.

Looking at the soldiers of the two armies fighting desperately under the city, although Li Nan couldn't bear it in his heart, he could only watch, at this time he really knew what it meant to be in charge of the soldiers.

The Zhennan Army has lost three trench defense lines, and now all the soldiers are leaning on the edge of the ditch and quickly eating the canned food and water sent by the people in the rear.

In this battle, not only the fortifications outside Guizhou were excavated and built by them, but also the work of delivering water, food, and ammunition was also done by them, which reduced a lot of burden on the soldiers.

After raising his head and drinking a pot of water, Spartacus, who had been at the forefront of the battle, got up and patrolled the trench.

In this Guizhou War, the First Army of the Zhennan Army became the main force to resist the Song Army, and all the soldiers were old men who had followed Spartacus for many years in the southern and northern wars, and he could even call everyone by name.

Spartacus stopped in front of a short, dark-skinned man whose mouth was stuffed with fish, and asked in a loud voice, "Ruan Xiong, can you still hold on?" ”

“…… Of course! Finally swallowed the food in his mouth, Ruan Xiong, as the head of the regiment, hurriedly put down the can in his hand and got up to salute.

Looking at the dozens of wounded soldiers beside Ruan Xiong, Spartacus's heart was also very uncomfortable.

The Zhennan Army used the army structure of later generations, which was divided into divisions, brigades, regiments, battalions, and companies, and the regiment led by Ruan Xiong was full of more than 3,000 people, but now there are only a few people left, and all the other soldiers died on the battlefield.

Looking at the old subordinates he personally brought out, Spartacus asked, "Do you regret joining the First Legion of the Zhennan Army?" Are you scared now? ”

"No regrets!" Ruan Xiong Zhengse said: "Back then, in Jiaozhi, I was just a slave who couldn't eat, couldn't wear clothes, and let my master beat and scold, since I joined the Zhennan Army, I only know what a person is!" Now that I have married a wife, I have two children, my family also has a few acres of good land, and I also live in a sturdy brick house, I know that this is all the grace of the prince, so whether it is the original Li Dynasty of Jiaozhi, or the Zhenla people, or the Song people, as long as someone dares to go against our Zhennan Kingdom, then Lao Tzu and his brothers will kill them all! ”

"Good!" Hearing this, Spartacus patted Ruan Xiong's shoulder vigorously and said loudly: "You have not lived up to the kindness of the prince, you have not disgraced your relatives at home, you are all good soldiers!" ”

The soldiers, who were originally a little tired because of the battle, heard this conversation between the two and remembered their own origins and experiences, and suddenly their bodies surged with infinite strength, and they all sang the military song of the Zhennan Army.

"The clouds are from the dragon, the wind is from the tiger, and the dust and earth are fame.

Looking at Shenzhou, the people are bitter, and thousands of miles of fertile land are barren.

Look at the world, as much as you want, and make up for the defects of heaven.

Good boy, don't be a parent, just for the common people, not for the lord.

Holding a steel knife of ninety-nine, kill all Hu Erfang and stop.

I am a dignified man, what is a Tartar as a horse and a cow.

The strong man drank the wine in the bowl and did not look back on the journey of a thousand miles.

The golden drums roared in unison, and the yellow dragon swore endlessly! ”

“…… The golden drums roared in unison, and the yellow dragon swore endlessly"

A catchy military song had the effect of boosting morale, and as this passionate song slowly sounded, the entire front-line position seemed to be infected, and the soldiers who were still alive sang along.

One passed ten, ten passed hundreds, and then the remaining more than 20,000 soldiers of the Zhennan Army began to sing in unison, and the chorus of 10,000 people shook the world.

After half a day of fierce fighting, the soldiers of the Song Army who were lucky enough to return alive were also seizing the time to rest and eat in the camp at this moment, and when they heard the high-pitched singing from the opposite side, everyone was stunned and stunned.

The meaning of this military song of the Zhennan Army is simple, everyone can understand the meaning, listening to the song ringing in their ears, Han Shizhong and Liu Yanqing and other generals from the military suddenly changed color, and an emotion called defeat slowly enveloped their hearts.

The morale of one side is low, and they don't know why they are fighting, and the other side expands its territory in order to protect its home and defend the country, and the morale of the Song army and the Zhennan army is simply different.

Knowing that they can't do it, this is probably the sorrow of many soldiers, knowing that their desire to fight is not strong, but in the evening, the Song army still launched the most fierce and tenacious all-army assault since the start of the war according to the original plan.

The sound of guns and cannons on the position became dense, and countless Song soldiers rushed up with heavy shields, and every soldier of the Zhennan Army almost didn't have to think, they inertly installed ammunition, opened fire, and threw grenades, in order to kill all the enemies in front of them.

"Boom ......Boom" Just after the Zhennan Army once again repelled the attack of the Song Army with difficulty, the earth suddenly trembled.

The generals in the Song army are worthy of being battle-hardened people with rich combat experience.

They first sent tens of thousands of Song army infantry to attack in turn, and then took advantage of the gap when the old strength of the Zhennan army was exhausted and the new strength was not born, and sent all the remaining cavalry and elite infantry who were recuperating in the large camp, intending to break through the defense line of the Zhennan army in one fell swoop.

Seeing the vast number of elite cavalry of the Song army in front, Ruan Xiong and other soldiers of the Zhennan Army who were guarding the front line invariably tied the explosives prepared in advance to themselves, and they who had seen the offensive of the Song cavalry were ready to die with the enemy.
