Chapter 475: A fierce battle in the cold snap
Chapter 475: A fierce battle in the cold snap
"Are these yellow-haired ghosts crazy?!" Zhang Jinwu scolded hatefully. Fun mini-games .
I don't know what Mikhail is thinking, since early in the morning, the Rus have attacked from all sides, and now they can't take care of any rotations, Qian Buli, Wei Chi Fengyun and other four people are guarding the four city walls to resist the attack of the Rus.
Both sides used ice bombs, and you went back and forth under the sky, and the fight was very pleasant, as if a huge hail was falling in the sky. Mikhail was a general who was good at improvisation, he had understood the tactics of the Tianwei army, and no longer gave the catapult army a chance to concentrate firepower, and the catapult army of the Rus' people was reduced to pieces into small detachments, each team had only three or five catapults, and the route of action was not as straight forward or backward as before, but advanced in a zigzag line, which greatly reduced casualties and brought a great threat to the walls of the city of Megan.
It has been three hours now, and the walls of Murgan City are full of large and small craters, but fortunately, the city walls are still covered with a thick layer of ice armor, and the main body of the city wall is still very badly damaged.
Compared with the soldiers of the Rus' Kingdom, the combat effectiveness of the soldiers of the Ji Zhou Kingdom is very different, except for the catapult army, which still has an advantage, the other armies are all pressed and beaten, and even the arrow battalion, which is inseparable from the money, has suffered some small losses. As we all know, archery requires not only strength, but also a pair of sensitive hands, but in this cold winter when you can't even stretch your fingers, the strength of the arrow battalion can't be waved at all!
The soldiers of the Rus Kingdom wore handguards made of animal skins, while the soldiers of the Ji Zhou Kingdom tied their hands with strips of cloth. Or wear gloves, the gap is not obvious in the early winter, and as the weather gets colder, the difference becomes more and more obvious. The archers of the Rus' Kingdom who were approaching kept throwing arrows upwards, but the archers of Ji Zhouguo fought back with great difficulty, and after shooting a few arrows, their fingers became stiff. I can no longer exert my strength, not because I can't pull the bowstring. It is that the arrows in the hand come out of the hand, and they cannot cause damage to the enemy at all.
The archers of Ji Zhouguo can only be replaced one after another, and the soldiers who go down will immediately roast the fire, and be ready to respond at any time after they are warm, and the money is not centrifuged, so repeated in extreme cold and heat, will bring serious hidden dangers to the soldiers. Thermal expansion and contraction are irresistible physical phenomena, shrinking too often, capillaries and nerves will produce irreversible damage, but he has no other way.
The gap in hand-to-hand combat is even more obvious, Ji Zhouguo's soldiers can't even hold their swords firmly, and the long swords of the two sides collide, and it is often the long swords of Ji Zhouguo's soldiers who fly out of their hands. The spear stabbed into the armor of the Rus' soldiers, and the spears slid back down their hands. It is difficult to pierce the armor of the other side. The casualty rate between the soldiers of the Rus Kingdom and the soldiers of the Ji Zhou Kingdom who jumped on the battlements has reached one to five, or even more, and the soldiers of the Ji Zhou Kingdom have to pay several times the price before they can kill the opponent.
Not only was there a sharp decrease in combat effectiveness, but the feet and even legs of Ji Zhouguo's soldiers were numb from the cold, and they were very clumsy to move. Whether it is supporting a companion or slashing an enemy, his hands and feet are always several beats slower than his eyes, and some even fall involuntarily while running.
The impact of different regions is difficult to overcome, and the current Rus' people look extremely brave, but if the war in Fuzhou is started in July, in the fierce battle under the scorching sun, there will be thousands of Rus' people fainting due to heat stroke, and the combat effectiveness will be weakened by many times!
Qian Buli, Wei Chi Fengyun and the others knew that the combat effectiveness of the soldiers would be reduced, but it was somewhat unexpected to reduce to such an extent, and a soldier who had eased up ran to the city wall to fight. The effective battle time is only a short moment. Then they have to retreat to keep warm, and the four walls are in constant danger. Fortunately, there are more than 200,000 soldiers of the four major legions stationed in the city, and there are many reserves, and there has been no shortage of troops.
The Rus country has also been affected a lot, but compared with the soldiers of the Ji Zhou Kingdom, their impact is negligible, and the most headache for the Rus people is the push rod that sticks out of the countless holes and the cold water poured down on the city, hiding in the city wall, the soldiers of the Ji Zhou Kingdom are relatively less affected by the ground, and the city wall is covered with ice, and the push rod only needs to be on the top of the ladder a few times, and the ladder will deviate from the city wall and slip. Ice water is even more uncomfortable, buckets of ice water poured down the city wall, no matter how cold the soldiers of the Rus country are, they can't help but pour ice water from the head, not because of the cold, the ice water will turn into ice in the blink of an eye, the soldiers who close their eyes can no longer open their eyes, their eyes are frozen hard, and the soldiers with their eyes open become blind, even if they are lucky enough to survive from the battlefield, their eyes are difficult to see anymore.
"Is there nothing going on over there?" Qian Buli asked slowly.
"Resisted. Zhang Jinwu sighed into the palm of his hand and rubbed his hands again, he has now become a snowman, and his head, eyebrows, and beard are covered with hoarfrost: "**, this weather is too cold!" ”
Zhang Jinwu was a little upset, otherwise he wouldn't have said foul words in front of Qian Buli, today's battle was very hard, and he was very breathless, although the Dragon and Tiger Legion had been fighting in the north for a long time, but today's weather was too cold, and he couldn't wield much combat power at all.
"The cold snap is coming, and Mikhail has been waiting for this cold snap for a long time. Qian Buli sighed: "This is the first day, and it will be colder in the future." ”
"Cold?" Zhang Jin tasted the product and felt that this word was very appropriate.
"It's just that I'm a little strange, Mikhail should wait a few days, and then attack after we can't tolerate the cold snap, the situation will be more serious. Qian Buli frowned: "My feeling is...... Mikhail is anxious! And from the moment it came up was a siege on all sides, which proved that Mikhail was anxious to find out the weak points of the city of Megan, and if I guessed correctly, tomorrow Mikhail would have to concentrate his forces and try to break through a corner. ”
"Could it be...... What happened in the Rus' country? Zhang Jinwu groaned.
"What could happen?"
"For example, the Golden Horde ......" Zhang Jinwu didn't finish his words, and he shook his head first: "No, if it was the Golden Horde, now Mikhail should be fighting with Khurid, the camp of the Rus' people has always been very calm, it's not for this reason, but ...... And for what? ”
"Don't think about it so much, the soldiers will come to block it, the water will come to cover it, and it will not be so easy to take down Mogan City!" Qian Buli said slowly.
At the sound of the horn, the Rus attacked again, and Zhang Jinwu hurriedly jumped on the wooden cart and galloped towards his defense area.
First interspersed with advancing catapults, followed by dense infantry phalanxes, although the catapults of the Rus' people after the devastating blow, the number has been far inferior to the catapult army of the Tianwei Legion, but the city wall of Mogan City is stationary, dripping water can pierce stones, if it goes on like this every day, the day when the wall of Mogan City will collapse, Qian Buli has already begun to arrange measures for street fighting, which shows that Qian Buli is not very optimistic about the prospects of Mogan City.
Hail fell again in the gloomy air, the ice bombs thrown by both sides roared on the target, the city wall was trembling, the earth was trembling, Tang Yunlong intercepted the opponent's catapult several times but did not receive good results, so he simply ordered the catapult army to put the main target on intercepting the opponent's infantry phalanx.
Ice bombs cut ditches in the phalanx of the Rus' people, blood-stained ditches! Although the ice bomb is much lighter than the stone bullet, it is better to not have to consider the logistics problem at all, and can project as much as you can, under the command of Tang Yunlong, countless drops fell on the Rus' army formation like raindrops, smashing the Rus' people on their backs.
The ice bombs projected by the Rus have fallen on the walls of the city of Murgan, Mikhail has learned the method of money, but it solves the problem of storage and supply of stone bombs, but unfortunately there are many opposite effects, if the Rus people project all stone bombs, the current Murgan City does not know what it will become, the power of the ice bomb is smaller, and the city of Murgan has ice armor to protect itself, the ice bomb can only destroy the ice armor, and the loss of the wall inside is not serious for the time being.
Of course, if the walls of Mogan City are as solid as the walls of Ji Zhouguo, even if these ice bombs are fought for half a year, they may not be able to break through the city defenses, the problem is that the city walls are full of stone chambers, and the destruction of each stone chamber will reduce the defense of the city walls, and the destruction of the lanes can affect the reinforcement of the soldiers, in other words, every day of fighting, the city defense of Mogan City will be weakened to varying degrees.
The soldiers of the Rus' kingdom erected ladders and climbed upwards one after the other like ants, while the city of Murgan became hedgehogs to the sound of war drums, and I don't know how many pushers protruded from the holes. The holes in the walls of Megan appear to be irregular, but in fact there are two holes in each vertical plane, in an attempt to ensure that all enemy ladders are threatened.
However, the Rus people have accumulated considerable experience in this kind of city defense warfare, most of the people who are trying to climb in front of the ladder are sword and shield hands, and those who suddenly go around the back of the ladder and do not move are the axe hands, they make way for their companions, and monitor the holes around them, many of the putts have just stretched out, and they are cut off by the axe hand, and the putter without the crescent blade loses the threat, and the soldiers of Ji Zhouguo can only change one more putter, but unfortunately the effect is the same as just now.
More than a dozen ladders were knocked down, but more were well protected, and the archers of the various wings of the Rus pressed up, suppressing the archers of Ji Zhouguo without any suspense.
It's not going to work like this! Qian Buli sighed: "Pass my order, the Royal Praetorian Guard will be dispatched!" ”
