Chapter 115: The Bridge Is Clear!?
Dugu Sheng was more confident in his subordinates, he analyzed: "Mai Mengcai, Qian Jie, and Meng Fan, who commanded on the front line, are all descendants of heroic martyrs, and now they have also grown into long-term veteran generals in my Xiaoguo army. ”
Feng Deyi stared at the figure of Xu Shiji on the stage of the Wei army with his eyes, and said, "It depends on what other tricks this kid has!" Now, the first batch of more than 2,000 people of our army rushed over, most of them have been killed and wounded, and only seven or eight hundred people are still standing in place, and now the bridge is broken again, and the corpses are blocking the way forward, and if you want to line up, I am afraid that it is not so easy, in my opinion, the catapults still cannot be stopped, and it is better to suppress the archers of the Wei army and win a little time for our army. ”
Lai Hu'er nodded, and said to Xue Rengui, who was holding the order flag and standing aside: "Order, the catapult resumes attack, ten rounds of rockfall attacks, quickly!" ”
Xue Rengui blinked his eyes and asked, "Dashuai, in this way, it is likely to hit our own people, the distance is too close!" ”
Laihu'er shook his head and said in a deep voice: "I don't care so much, let them throw as far away as possible, don't fight too quickly, and strive for results!" ”
Xue Rengui, who had been ordered, had to stand in front of the stage and raise the flag, and soon, the more than 200 Sui army trebuchets that had been silent for a long time just now began to roar again, and the stones thrown from both sides of the air were like meteor showers, and many stones collided in the air. Then they both fell into the river, like a meteorite in the sky, smashing the water column of several zhang high in the water of the Liao River, and the silt people at the bottom of the river were fiercely turned to the surface of the river. In addition to the smell of blood, the air also smelled of unpleasant century-old silt, and dead fish and shrimp, as well as hundreds of corpses of the Xiaoguo army, also floated on the surface of the river. It gives people a mental shock of death.
On the other side, Yuwen Chengdu, who was responsible for guarding the Chinese army, had already stirred up the bloody situation in front of the battle, he ran to the front of the Chinese army's war drum array, took off the armor on his body, exposed a knotted body full of black hair, inserted the phoenix wings gilt boring to the ground, picked up two drumsticks, and began to beat the drum with all his might.
"Knock knock~! Knock knock~! Knock knock~! ”
The momentum of hundreds of war drums completely suppressed the shouting and killing of the soldiers of the Xiaoguo Army and the sound of the continuous bowstrings on the opposite side, and everyone's hearts beat violently with this rumbling, thunderous drum, becoming blood-boiling and murderous!
The encouragement of the war drums inspired every soldier of the Xiaoguo Army who was charging to death on the pontoon bridge of Yongji Canal, so that their fear of death could not help but turn into an expectation of victory, and the soldiers took a faster step on the bridge!
Hundreds of stones fell into the camp of the Wei army, and this time the Wei army did not cover the top of their heads with wooden rafts in order to shoot, so the bombardment effect of the stones was much stronger. Every stone smashed into the crowd, always brought a muffled snort and scream, after the stone hit the person, it continued to jump and roll on the ground, bringing up a cloud of blood-colored dust and mist, and the speed and frequency of carrying the corpse when the Wei army's auxiliaries ran back and forth suddenly increased a lot, and even many of the auxiliaries themselves just rushed up. He was also hit by a stone and became a clump of bloody mud.
Xu Shiji stood on the platform, expressionlessly looking at the archers of the Wei army who were fighting to the death within a hundred steps on the riverbank, they were crying wolf howling while being smashed by the stones of the Sui army, and at the same time they kept pouring arrow rain in the direction of the riverbank.
Therefore, they mechanically repeated the process of opening the bow, releasing the arrows, opening the bow again, and releasing the arrows, and before they knew it, the fifty long-rod wolf's tooth arrows in the quiver were also empty, and on the other hand, on the riverbank, it almost became a sea of arrows.
Under the high-intensity, continuous baptism of arrows and the fatal blow of catapults, the Sui army who climbed the river beach could not have been injured, and even if they began to be shot, the sergeants who still had a life left on the ground wailing and rolling would be nailed to the ground by successive follow-up arrows, becoming corpses covered with white feathers, or smashed into a meatloaf by a boulder falling from the sky.
The surviving Sui army, let alone counterattacking, couldn't even raise the lance anymore, grabbed the inner handle of the shield with both hands, and hid all of his body as much as possible inside the shield.
Even if some sharp bows and arrows passed through the gaps between these shields, and the tips of the arrows pierced the bodies of these sergeants, and the blood flowed down the iron armor, and the blood flowed like a pour, they did not dare to remove the shield even half a point because of the pain, and even some people's palms were nailed to the back of the shield by the tips of the arrows, and even the bones were exposed, and they could only wail and scream loudly to alleviate their pain, but they did not dare to withdraw their palms back an inch.
Heavy footsteps on the pontoon bridge followed, the first to attack were the hoplites in iron armor, they from the middle and right of the two pontoons, with shields, trotted all the way, and crossed at the fastest speed, on the left pontoon bridge, the broken section, the craftsmen were still desperately rushing to repair, the shirtless water ghost warriors in the water had been shot to death, stoned to death, and drowned a lot by this dense bow and arrow and falling rocks, but few people dared to break away from the battle line, because the bright Mo knife in the hand of the shore overseer team could go down with one sword, and everyone and horses were broken, That's no joke!
In this water full of dead people, dead fish, shrimp and sawdust, braving the biting cold, against the turbulent current, continue to hold the stake, it is a psychological and physical test for people, many water ghosts holding the stake hands are trembling, so that the hammer wrestlers standing on the board of the boat are not accurate.
It took the effort of the first three pontoon bridges to erect it, but this pontoon bridge was still not connected, but under the huge water columns rising on both sides of the pontoon bridge, and the impact of the angry waves, some warriors who smashed the piles were unstable under their feet, and fell directly into the water, plopped a few times, and were swallowed by the waves, and even sank into the water with hammers.
After paying the price of hundreds of lives, finally, after a strong man with a sledgehammer smashed the last hammer fiercely, he turned around excitedly and raised his head and shouted: "The pile is good!" The bridge is connected! ”
