Text Chapter 23: Liu Deqing fights
Another army barracks
"Pass the order down and prepare for the whole army to attack Lin'an Mansion, the imperial city of the Logging Country."
General Liu Deqing, the commander of the million-dollar army of Youguo, put his hands behind him, his expression was majestic, his eyes looked indifferently at Lin'an Mansion, the imperial city of Muguo, and his body stood tall on the platform of the base camp, and he opened his mouth to order the heralds under the stage.
People of Lin'an Mansion, please bless your Royal Highness the Seventh Princess safe and sound!
I hope that your Royal Highness the Seventh Princess will not lose a single hair, and if she loses a single hair, all of you in the city, young and old, will have to be buried with this hair.
Liu Deqing meditated in his heart with great domineering, and the whole person couldn't help but show the state of a king who swallowed mountains and rivers.
But the moment I thought of Zhao Yurou, the whole person became extremely tender again.
The herald soldiers instantly sent the order of the commander Liu Deqing to the flag soldiers on the flag command tower.
"Generals, return to their respective headquarters and lead their soldiers to attack the city and kill the enemy, and make contributions!"
Liu Deqing said in a flat tone to the generals who were standing in the point general's field, as if he was talking about a very ordinary thing.
"Yes."
The generals immediately stood upright, saluted Liu Deqing, and walked out of the murderous general field in turn, returning to their respective headquarters.
In the barracks, which covers an area like a city's million-strong army, columns of soldiers are neatly arranged, and their bodies stand like benchmarks.
At this time, there was not only the neighing of war horses, the choking of weapons, but also the footsteps of soldiers arranging and arranging formations, and the sound of orders for the deployment of troops by the army.
When the soldiers of the army received the order of the commander Liu Deqing to lead the whole army to fight together, their hearts were full of shock and joy at the same time, and the highest thought in the hearts of every soldier was to be able to go into battle with the commander to kill the enemy, make meritorious deeds, and achieve immortal achievements.
The soldiers' eyes were all shining, their momentum was like a rainbow, and their whole bodies exuded a strong fighting spirit, and they couldn't wait to charge into battle under the leadership of coach Liu Deqing and kill the enemy.
The soldiers were dressed in black uniforms, black armor, and black spears, and every soldier in the battalion was like a drop in the sea that merged into a black ocean, and there was no edge in sight.
And above this black ocean, there is a very terrifying aura of slaughter, which is overwhelming, causing a very heavy sense of depression.
"The auspicious time has come, open the barracks gate."
The herald ordered his soldiers to the generals who were guarding the gates of the barracks.
The herald is a soldier and a senior officer, because the order is passed on behalf of the commander.
"Yes,"
The general of the garrison stood upright, saluted the herald's own soldiers, and then turned around and ordered to the soldiers guarding the camp gate: "Open the barracks gate." ”
"Boom~Boom~Boom~"
After a while, the gate of the heavy barracks of the army was slowly opened, and I saw the soldiers of the army one after another, one battalion after another, out of the camp of the army.
The first to leave the gate of the barracks were the light and heavy infantry, the light infantry in the front, the heavy infantry in the rear, and the light infantry attacking the city and the heavy infantry in the rear.
The next to go out of the city were the crossbowmen, the archers were in front and the strong crossbowmen were behind, and the light and heavy infantry were the last to attack the city, and the crossbowmen had killed the enemy.
Then there were spearmen, shield soldiers, broadsword soldiers, slingers, wood-pounding soldiers, charioteers, etc., and the last to go out of the camp were light and heavy cavalry.
"Da~Da~Da~Da~"
The light cavalry was in front, the heavy cavalry was behind, and one after another the horses stepped on the ground, making one deafening sound after another.
"Knock~Knock~Knock~Knock~"
The rear base camp of the siege army of Youguo beat the war drums again and again, and the sound of the war drums made the siege soldiers in the barracks feel instantly demoralized and excited.
The army was well-trained, the movements were extremely fast, the process of the formation was orderly, without the slightest confusion, and soon, a huge military formation appeared under the city of Lin'an Mansion, the imperial city of the Mu Kingdom.
The entire siege army array is heavy, the scale is as huge as Mount Tai and unshakable, and the aura of slaughter runs through the nine heavens, making people's hearts tremble.
Among them, the light and heavy cavalry formed a formation to protect the two flanks of the army formation and prevent the enemy from attacking both sides of the army formation.
I saw that at the front of the army were spearmen, and countless spears formed a forest of spears. At first glance, I saw that it was dense, and there were spears everywhere, and even flies did not want to fly by.
The tip of the spear made of bronze sparkles in the sun, glowing with a golden copper light, which is eye-catching.
Behind the spearmen were the light infantry, whose task was to cover the pikemen, and if an enemy rushed through the pikemen's attack and rushed to the closer, these light infantry would be needed to fight.
Although the power of the Chang Rou soldiers is huge, after all, the weapons in hand are too long, and the melee combat is not flexible, which needs to be assisted by light steps.
Behind the light infantry were archers, whose task was to shoot the enemy by firing their bows and arrows when they were charging to range.
Of course, bows and arrows are not the main long-range siege weapons of the siege soldiers of Tamuk, and bows and arrows are only auxiliary long-range attack weapons.
The real long-range attack weapon of the army is the strong crossbow, also known as the "divine crossbow", behind the archers.
The army did not use the strong crossbows in a scattered manner, but used them in a centralized manner, using tens of thousands of strong crossbows to form a terrifying crossbow array.
One can imagine the terrible consequences of a crossbow array composed of countless powerful crossbows.
I saw that behind the archers, strong crossbows stood on the ground, like fierce beasts, ready to devour people at any time.
Tens of thousands of powerful crossbows form a huge crossbow array, covering an area of several miles, with earth-shattering momentum and shocking power.
On the arrow path, a crossbow with a length of more than a foot and a thick arm lay quietly, shining with golden copper light, like the fangs of a beast.
The bolts are all made of bronze, and if they are fired at high speed from a distance, they can be imagined with a force that can penetrate everything, and no flesh and blood can resist it.
For the era of cold weapons, the strong crossbow is quite a "cannon", and its power is endless.
Once you have a large number of strong crossbows and form a crossbow array, then whether you attack or defend, you will be invincible.
Behind the crossbow were several large catapults, which stood on the ground like one steel monster after another.
Catapults, like crossbows, are heavy siege equipment, and several large catapults are lined up together, the scene is spectacular and terrifying.
Behind the trebuchet were light infantry, preventing the enemy from attacking from the back.
The guards of the base camp pushed out a cloud car from the commander's tent and came to the middle of the formation to stop, and Liu Deqing boarded the cloud car with a few heralds.
The Yunche soldiers pulled the winch, the Yunche slowly rose, and Liu Deqing and a few heralds rose higher and higher, until they stopped more than ten zhang.
The cloud car is the special command vehicle of the great general Liu Deqing, whenever Liu Deqing chooses to fight in person, he will board the cloud car, rise to a high altitude, observe the enemy situation, and command.
Liu Deqing took a look, and saw that the head of Lin'an Mansion, the imperial city of Mu Kingdom, was full of Mu State defenders, three steps and one soldier, and ten steps and a group of soldiers, which showed Mu Guo's determination to defend Lin'an Mansion.
"General, Mu Guo's determination to protect Lin'an Mansion is very strong! The soldiers defending the city all showed their determination to move forward. ”
A pro-soldier looked at the wall of Lin'an Mansion, the imperial city of Muguo, and said.
"That's right, they put on this posture because they plan to live and die with Lin'an Mansion."
Liu Deqing nodded heavily.
"Crossbowmen, prepare!"
Liu Deqing ordered loudly.
The herald soldier on the ladder immediately waved the command flag in his hand.
I saw that the strong crossbowmen on the position drew their bows, mounted crossbows, and arranged the crossbow arrays neatly, all aimed at the city wall of Lin'an Mansion.
"Shot~~"
Liu Deqing's fan-like right hand was raised high and swung down heavily, like thunder and lightning, extremely powerful.
The cloud car sent an order to the soldiers to immediately wave the flag in their hands and issue a flag order.
"Woo~Boom~!"
Suddenly, a sharp roar sounded, deafening.
The soldiers who operated the strong crossbow were obviously used to it, and there was no major reaction, their main reaction was to grit their teeth, frown, and have no other superfluous movements.
And most of the newly recruited Muguo soldiers on the head of Lin'an Mansion are obviously not used to it, some cover their ears, some scream in pain, and some even squat down and hold their heads, all kinds of actions, and so on.
Countless crossbow arrows suddenly appeared in the air, shooting towards the city of Lin'an Mansion like poisonous snakes.
Countless crossbow arrows form a huge arrow net, densely packed, covering the sky and the sun, and the sun can't penetrate it, what a shocking thing it is!
The high-speed crossbow bolts stirred up a gust of wind, rolling up the dirt and dust on the ground, quickly forming a dark cloud and rushing towards the city.
"Poof~poof~poof~!"
The crossbow bolt hit, mercilessly piercing the bodies of the defenders on the walls of the Imperial City of the Wood Country, and bursting out of blood flowers.
Countless blood flowers, glittering in the daylight, bewitching and dazzling, indescribably weird.
"Ah~Ah~Ah~"
The dull sound of piercing flesh, accompanied by the screams of the soldiers defending the Imperial City of Mu Kingdom, shook the heavens and the earth.
The sight of the crossbow bolt piercing through the bodies of the soldiers defending the city in the wooden country was extremely shocking.
The crossbow arrows fired at high speed ruthlessly pierced through the bodies of the soldiers defending the city of the Wood Kingdom, and because of the fast speed and strong strength of the crossbow arrows, they penetrated the bodies of the soldiers defending the cities of the Wood Kingdom without any effort, and let the blood not have time to fill the wounds on the body.
There is often a scene of a crossbow bolt flying away from the body, and the wound is still transparent, and the light on the opposite side can be seen.
Suddenly, blood gushed out of the body, filling the blood holes, splashing everywhere, and splashing far away.
The power of the crossbow bolts was too great, and many soldiers defending the city of Mu Country were shot into the air.
How terrifying is it that a crossbow shot one or two people at a minimum, or three or five at most, and the soldiers flew in the air like human flesh skewers.
The crossbow arrows fell with all their might, and many soldiers piled up together, accumulating into small mountains of corpses.
The East Palace of the Prince of Muguo
Since receiving the news that the army had left the camp and lined up, the prince of Muguo had been terrified, and he had never been born in peace.
The whole person anxiously walked back and forth in the council hall, and his brows were wrinkled together.
If it goes on like this, we have to take action, otherwise Lin'an Mansion will not be guaranteed.
"Report to the prince, the army has begun to attack the city."
Yu ordered the soldiers to come to the council hall and stand upright, saluted the prince of Muguo, and said.
"What about Liu Deqing? Did Liu Deqing play? ”
Zhao Qichen, the prince of Muguo, asked anxiously to Yulin Chuanbing.
"Liu Deqing, the commander of the army, has already boarded the cloud car and is directing the army to attack our imperial city."
Yulin Chuanbing's face changed, and he replied in fear.
