The roar of the cannon shook through the sea, and the heart seemed to be less and less felt in the long tremor, and the chest cavity seemed to be empty, and it was squeezed by the surrounding air, which was uncomfortable - the sound of the cannon was like a hammer, and it was like a hammer slamming down on the heart.

The soldiers of the Tang Dynasty were used to it, but the Persians did not.

They were all pale—they were too close to the artillery, and it was actually very uncomfortable.

On the opposite side, the big cannibal stone thrower also kept throwing boulders, but obviously the range of the stone thrower could not be compared with the artillery, and those boulders fell one after another in places far from reaching the Tang army.

The ravines on the ground seemed to have blocked the advance of the Tang army, and the method of cannibalism seemed to work.

Because of the criss-crossing ravines on the ground, the Tang army was obviously unable to advance quickly, and it no longer had the momentum it had when it had just begun to attack. The commander of the Great Food Army couldn't help but rejoice in his heart, he successfully blocked the landing of the Tang army.

"These big cannibals like to dig trenches in the ground!" Belus shouted loudly in Xia Hongsheng's ear: "You can not only block the charge of the cavalry, but also jump in to avoid the sun!" ”

There are many deserts, and the heat in the desert is extremely terrifying. Deep-dug trenches can bring shade and sometimes dampness.

But in fact, Datang has a way to deal with these trenches.

All it takes is for the infantry to jump off the trench, erect two logs, spread their shields across the logs, and the men hold the logs again with their shoulders underneath to create a pontoon bridge that allows the artillery to be pushed through.

Xia Hongsheng didn't respond, just looked at the shore from afar.

Suddenly, puffs of black smoke rose from the ground like wolf smoke and quickly rose into the air.

Pillars of smoke rose everywhere, and the army of Great Food suddenly became chaotic.

"It's done!" Xia Hongsheng clapped his hands, and immediately ordered again: "The musketeers and shield men jumped off the trench and held this area, we won't go back!" ”

"Won't go?!" Belus was taken aback, and hurriedly said: "This side is too close to the sea, and it is a beach, and aside from the high tide, the place is too small and it is not easy to garrison troops!" ”

"Don't be afraid! Tomorrow will be the time when these great cannibals will be defeated! Xia Hongsheng twisted the fence next to the ship, turned around and said: "Order, all the ships behind will follow, and the supply ships will pull all the armaments to the front, and give me the top until tomorrow!" ”

The heralds around him immediately ran away, and passed Xia Hongsheng's order with the command flag in each direction.

After a while, I only heard the sound of artillery in front of me more intensively, but the sound was quieter, and it was replaced by mortars, which also showed that the enemy army was closer.

Tomorrow's dawn is the planned time for the Su Dingfang to arrive behind enemy lines and launch an attack.

"Brother Xia really has a backhand!" Belus asked.

Xia Hongsheng nodded: "General Su Dingfang personally led the elite cavalry, and he has landed from Aden a few days ago, and tomorrow will be the time for them to attack from behind!" ”

Belus was stunned for a moment, and then laughed: "I see! I see! Xiao Wang understood! Whether it's a strong attack, or burning grain and grass, I'm afraid it's all to create conditions for General Su! ”

The movement in front of me is sometimes large and sometimes small, coming and going several times.

The cannibals failed to drive the Tang army back into the sea, and the Tang army did not continue to go a little deeper ashore.

It was getting dark, and the two sides were at a stalemate, but neither of them organized an offensive again.

On the ship, Fang Yiai, who was covered in blood, took off his armor and shouted, "Happy! Joyfully! It's a great day! ”

"You're fucking injured, Lao Tzu told you to come down, why don't you listen!" Cheng Chumo strode in from the outside, and opened his mouth to scold: "Military doctor!" What about the medics?! ”

"Hurt?" Xia Hongsheng hurriedly took a look, and sure enough, he saw that the underwear on Fang Yiai's shoulders had been soaked with blood.

"Call the medic to come over!" Xia Hongsheng hurriedly ordered.

"Out of the way!" Fang Yiai smiled and waved his hand, raised his shoulders again, and said, "Look, it's not in the way at all." The arrow didn't shoot deep—the slit in the shoulder armor pierced a little, and I pulled it out casually. At this time, there is no bloodshed, and it is better to ask the military doctor to treat more soldiers. ”

"What if the arrow is smeared with something?" Cheng Chumo said: "I promised Aunt Fang to bring you back!" ”

Li Yexu walked over and ripped off Fang Yuai's clothes, took a look, and said, "Fortunately, it's not too deep." ”

"Brother Sheng...... Boss, I'm only afraid of the big cannibals stealing the camp tonight. Li Chongyi said.

Xia Hongsheng nodded: "Chongyi, you and Ye Xu have replaced the love and silence, and go to the front tonight." Beware of the cannibals. ”

"Boss, I'm fine." Cheng Chumo patted his chest and said.

"You and your bereaved love have enough spirits, and tomorrow there will be a decisive battle." Xia Hongsheng said: "I will also save the strength until tomorrow, cooperate with General Su, and give the big cannibal a flank before and after." ”

As he spoke, Xia Hongsheng's own soldiers had already brought the military doctor over. The military doctor immediately went over to treat Fang Yiai's wound, and when he learned that it was fine, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

"Hahaha, Brother Xia's strategy, Xiao Wang admires. With 5,000 men and horses, he wiped out the Great Water Eater, and defeated hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses, which can be called the god of war in the world! Belus said at this moment.

"Your Highness is ashamed of me." Xia Hongsheng shook his head: "The number of victories and defeats tomorrow is not yet known." And the victory of the war depends on the soldiers' lives, the unity of the whole body, and the fact that the armament is ahead of the enemy. As for me, it's just a good time for me - without further ado, let's go eat and drink, get some rest, and regain your strength. ”

Everyone hurried to rest, and in the middle of the night, they heard the shouts of killing in front of them, and the big cannibal really took advantage of the night to sneak attack.

Fortunately, Li Chongyi and Li Yexu had been on guard for a long time, and although the big cannibals attacked at night, they couldn't get a bargain.

However, Xia Hongsheng, who couldn't sleep, couldn't even lie down.

He simply got up and went outside, staring to the east, until there was a glimmer of whiteness.

The sea breeze is refreshing, skimming by. The waves also beat lightly, and finally did not disturb the silence at the moment.

This is the calm before the storm.

The dawn has arrived!

"Tell the whole army, get ready." Xia Hongsheng said in a deep voice.

Xia Hongsheng's generals quickly passed it on, and the Tang Dynasty soldiers took deep breaths one after another, holding back their excited heartbeats - the decisive battle was coming, and the large amount of adrenal hormones secreted at this moment made people's bodies immediately excited. They clenched their weapons tightly and looked up at the sky.

Suddenly, I saw a bright green burst out of the slightly white air, and the green light flashed, and then, many shining green lights suddenly appeared. The green light joined together, and in an instant it illuminated the dawn, making it as bright as day!

The sky was as bright as day. This miraculous situation caused the people on the ground to look up.

In the green light, I saw huge round things floating high in the air, casting huge shadows, like ancient giant beasts, descending on the sky above the Great Food Barracks over there!
