Chapter 468: The Battle of the Continent (3)

"Huh~"

"Ahh

"Khooth!"

"Huh~!"

Tens of thousands of spears stabbed forward one after another under the command of the bronze whistle. In line with the expectations of the generals on both sides, most of the spears of the Han army successfully broke through the armor and directly entered the flesh, and then countless wails suddenly sounded on the side of the Jin army.

And the spears of the Jin army, sure enough, only a small number of spears successfully broke through the armor, and most of the spears were helplessly cut open in the face of the plate armor.

The two sides faced each other in the first round, and the Han army won completely.

"Stick hand forward, look at the enemy's spear, knock me down!"

"Huh~!"

The former enemy commander of the Jin army's spearmen was Yang Zhao of the Hongnong Yang clan, who had served in the Luoyang Chinese Army for a long time because of his surname, so he was the most familiar with the spear formation of his army.

Due to the intelligence of Jin Cao, Chen Qian and others had already made preparations in advance, so when the Han army really sacrificed the plate armor spearmen, Yang Zhao also quickly made relevant instructions.

The rows of soldiers in the back of the Jin army's spearmen formation were not really spearmen strictly speaking: they were not holding spears, but about 1.5 meters long, with a front end of about 30 centimeters, which was swollen and convex like a jujube pit. It can be said that, except that no iron nails are implanted in the bulking section, this is a standard mace.

After receiving Yang Zhao's order, these soldiers quickly stepped forward over their comrades with spears in front of them, and stood still close to the spearmen in the first row. They looked nervously and intently at the chests of their comrades in front of them.

"Drop!" On the opposite side, another copper whistle sounded, and the neat and uniform gun heads stabbed again, many of which still carried the blood that had not yet dried, exuding a rich blood.

"It's now!" The stickers looked at the whizzing spears, raised their iron rods high, and then slammed the blades of the spears into the opposite direction.

"Ah~!" "Sonorous ~~" "Bell ~~! ”

At this time, the spearmen standing in the first row of the Jin army were still stabbed and fell, but their numbers were significantly better than in the first two rounds of stabbing: the one-meter-five stick could not hit the opposing spearmen standing three meters away at this time. However, when the stick hits the spear hard, most of the spears deviate from the expected trajectory of the shooter, and naturally they cannot stab the enemy. There are also a small number of spears, if it is against a big stick hand who is bold enough to dare to completely expose his body, I can't say, the barrel of the gun will be directly knocked off!

"Didi, Didi." After seeing such a scene, the commanders of the various formations in the Han army formation quickly began to issue orders: "Engage the enemy gunners head-on, and the first two columns are close together." The first column, stab the opponent's stickman, and the second column, stab the opponent's gunner! Archers, aim at the opposing stickers and shoot! ”

"Whoa!"

With the adjustment of the Han army, the gunners of the Han army, relying on their strong armor, strode forward with the gunners who were originally standing in the first column, greatly shortening the distance between their own side and the opponent, and then the three-meter-long spear directly crossed the pikemen in the first column on the opposite side and gestured towards the big stickers behind their sides. And the archers in each phalanx also hung up the bows they used to shoot on their backs at the beginning, took out the crossbows on their backs, quickly moved forward, looked for gaps behind their comrades, and fired accurately at the stickers of the Jin army.

"Archer, raise the angle of fire, diffuse!" Due to the short training time and the fact that this side is a solid spear formation, the archers behind the gun array on the Jin army's side cannot shoot at close range like the archers of the Han army. However, after seeing that the archers on the opposite side were inflicting a lot of damage on their own stickers, all Yang Zhao could do was to let his archers shoot blindly at the rear of the Han army.

The battle became more intense, although the Han army relied on the forward attack of the gunners in the front row to effectively hit the Jin army's stickers, but there is no doubt that the attacks that I would encounter after the forward attack were also significantly increased. As a result, although the casualties of the Jin army were still greater than those of the Han army, the casualties of the Han army continued to increase.

"Huh~~ Chen Xiuyuan is really amazing!"

Jiang Wei, who saw this scene on the city tower, let out a long breath: "Tannu, San Lang, have you all seen it?" ”

"Back to my uncle, my grandson saw it. This blunt weapon does have its own unique side. ”

"Yes, when our army began to change its plate armor, Bo Gong (Zhang Yi) and I couldn't help but be overjoyed, and we both said that once this armor came out, no one could stop our army's blow again. But your father said that if the Jin people found that they could not effectively break the armor, they would naturally come up with blunt weapons to fight. Now it seems that this is indeed the case. ”

"Then Uncle Ancestor, how should we deal with it at this time? Do you want to send cavalry? ”

"No, at this time, the enemy's infantry ranks are completely disorganized, and at this time, the cavalry is dispatched, and our army has suffered too many casualties. In this battle, our army will win, and there is no need to exchange the lives of the soldiers for a quick victory. Tannu, at this time, we should wait, this formation of the Jin army is a circular formation. Of course, the defense is good enough, but it is not easy to maintain this formation for a long time, especially during the battle. ”

Just when Jiang Wei was guiding Guan Fu on the spot on the wall, the infantry of the Han and Jin dynasties, as the war became more intense, the battlefield slowly changed.

The Han army was hollow versus solid, so there was always a part of the Jin army spearmen who had no opponent in front of them. Although this part of the spearmen had been strictly ordered by the superior before leaving the battle: to maintain the formation and not to advance rashly. But there was not a single enemy in front of him, and within sight, his own robe was fighting and even dying. This made these soldiers unconsciously move their steps slowly, and after the war started for more than an hour, the circle of the Jin army, which was at the front, actually began to straighten slowly!

Circle array, pull a hair and move the whole body. If one place is straightened, it means that the circle is broken......

"Even now, the fighter plane has appeared, raising the lantern and letting the cavalry on the left and right flanks of our army attack!"

The battlefield covered by more than 200,000 people is too large, because the earth itself is a sphere, and the ground has a curvature. As a result, if the distance is too far, people's eyes will drift to the sky. Therefore, although Yangshi County is surrounded by endless plains, the more this is the case, the more long-distance command cannot completely rely on the banner.

Fortunately, Ji Han has the Kong Ming lantern handed down by Zhuge Liang.

With the rapid movements of the guards behind Jiang Wei, a red Kong Ming lantern rose one after another, and it looked extremely dazzling in the clean sky.

"Hahahaha, I've been waiting for a long time, and it's finally time for me to wait for the attack?"

At this time, on both sides of the battlefield, there were two cavalry teams led by Wen Yang and Ma Jie. On the Chinese side of the duck is 30,000 light horses, and on the side of Ma Jie, there are 15,000 light horses and 5,000 heavy horses.

"It's all there, the whole army is assaulting!"

"Huh~~!"
