Chapter 5 A Critical Moment
Finally arriving at their destination, the rebels were relieved to see the defensive positions built by the Xiaoguo army in the distance. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info However, there are still many people looking around, carefully beware of the killing god attacking again, this group of rebels was scared by the cavalry of the Xiaoguo army, especially the overlord lance in the hands of the leader is too powerful.
Li Ba rode on his war horse and looked at the defensive position of the Xiaoguo army on the opposite side, showing a very disdainful look, paralyzed, can this person still resist the attack of my army? Dream on.
Indeed, the two archery battalions of the Xiaoguo Army totaled 600 people, and the three infantry battalions had 900 people, for a total of only 1,500 people. How many people are there here? There were 20,000 soldiers and horses, and the difference in strength between the two sides was too great.
"Liu Dazhuang, you take 3,000 people to take the lead and take this broken fence wall for me. A group of defeated generals still dare to resist, isn't this looking for death. ”
"No, the general is waiting for my good news, it won't be long before I take down this broken fence wall."
Li Ba also wanted these 3,000 soldiers to test the opponent's defensive ability, it was best to attack it, and then increase their strength if they couldn't attack it.
The three thousand rebels put themselves in order, and the hula-la crowd suddenly began to attack forward.
The Xiaoguo army saw that the rebels' attack formation was concentrated and pushed forward, and they were also adjusting the formation in order to strengthen the counterattack.
Song Wei summoned several battalions to make the final mobilization to the soldiers: "Brothers, this is a battle of life and death, once the fence is breached, the enemy's 20,000 horses will trample on us to death, and no one will be able to escape." As long as we hold on to the first few rounds of attacks, and when the enemy forces are dispersed, the general will surprise from behind the enemy, and then the victory will be ours. Brethren, do you understand? ”
"Understand, swear to hold your ground!"
"Okay, everyone prepare, wait for the order to shoot."
"Kill! Kill! Kill! ”
The three thousand rebels pounced overwhelmingly, and just entered the range of bow and arrow shooting, the Xiaoguo army was already ready, and the battalion gave an order: "Projectile." ”
With a "buzz", a dense rain of arrows shot at the enemy.
The rebels had just started and were not very well equipped, some had shields, most of them had no shields, and the mortality rate was relatively high. And some of the heavy battalions on the side of the Xiaoguo army are bows and arrows, and six hundred archers can be consumed in a year, and I am afraid it will be difficult to consume them in a year.
The point is that archery consumes a lot of physical strength, and it is impossible to shoot endlessly, so the Xiaoguo army quickly turned into a round shot. When one group of people finishes shooting arrows, they switch to another group of shots.
A few rounds of arrows caused heavy casualties to the rebels, but they did not stop them from advancing, and they soon approached a few dozen paces from the fence wall. The archers of the Xiaoguo army began to shoot directly, and the lethality of the rain of arrows of 600 people was still quite large, and the rebels would pay the price of death for every step forward.
The rebels were a little overwhelmed, and the people who could rush to ten paces away from the fence wall were scattered, and they could not escape the fate of death under the bows and arrows of the Xiaoguo archers. The rebels, who had fallen behind, no longer dared to advance, and the 3,000 men had already paid for the lives of nearly a thousand.
Although Liu Dazhuang swore that he would overcome the defense of the Xiaoguo army, he grinned in distress in the face of so many casualties among his subordinates. Liu Dazhuang is not stupid, he is nothing without soldiers in his hands, and he waved his hand to order the soldiers to retreat.
The rebels finally retreated, and the soldiers cheered. In this offensive and defensive battle, the casualties of the Xiaoguo army were very light, and they mainly relied on simple fence walls to occupy a favorable terrain.
The rebels don't shoot much with bows and arrows, and the Xiaoguo army has the cover of the fence wall, so even a small number of bows and arrows from the rebels will not pose a great threat.
Li Ba could see clearly in the rear, Nima, he didn't even touch the edge of the fence, and he took the lives of many people, and the first round of attacks was a failure.
It seems that the Xiaoguo Army is starting to fight hard. Well, since you want to fight hard, I'll play with you. Aren't you just more than a thousand people, what I have is a lot of people, it's better to drown you with people.
Liu Dazhuang retreated with the remnants of the army, and was scolded by Li Ba. Li Ba still has to count on these subordinates to work hard, even if Liu Dazhuang's attack is unfavorable, it is not good to go too far, can he still kill him?
This time, Li Bafa was ruthless, and he was entangled with the attack team of 10,000 people at once, and he wanted to break through the defense of the Xiaoguo army in one go.
The rebel army of 10,000 attacked the defense of more than 1,000 people of the Xiaoguo army, and in comparison, the defensive strength of the Xiaoguo army was too thin.
On the defensive position of the Xiaoguo army, watching the dense attack team in the distance advancing to this side, the battalion led Song Weizhao, Qiao Hengbo, Chen Hongcang, Xue Yongxi, Dong Hongyang, and Qu Guangshui were all nervous, the enemy army was crazy, and this wave of attacks was probably difficult to hold!
Everyone looked at Song Weizhao, who was the commander here.
"Bring out all the bows and arrows, and put all the infantry and baggage soldiers on board, and wait until the enemy is near, and then take up their weapons against the enemy. There is no way, there are too many enemy troops. ”
After Song Weizhao finished speaking, everyone had no opinion, so they could only fight. Each of the five battalions was responsible for one piece, and a few soldiers from the baggage battalion were served as firefighters.
The rebels came into firing range, and a total of 2,000 of the Xiaoguo army and 500 baggage soldiers were thrown together, trying to stop the advance of the rebels.
The rebels are 10,000 men! I couldn't see it, and the speed of the attack didn't pause at all, and it kept rushing forward.
The Xiaoguo army was also desperate, and did not dare to stop the rounds of arrows, hoping to stop the rebels' attack by relying on the dense rain of arrows. However, this time the wish of the Xiaoguo army was difficult to realize, and the number of rebels was too large.
The enemy is approaching, and the Xiaoguo army relies on the condescending direct fire of the terrain, and the lethality is very strong.
Although the rebels suffered heavy casualties, the leaders of the rebels pressed the soldiers behind and forced the soldiers to force the attack, and soon approached the fence wall of the Xiaoguo army.
Due to the large number of rebels in this attack, the range of the attack was much larger than the last time, and the scope of the Xiaoguo army's defense was also much larger, and the deployment of 2,000 people was thin, and the bow and arrow could not suppress the rebels' offensive, so some rebels attacked under the fence wall.
The fence wall was more than one man high, which also bothered the rebels, and two rebels carried a soldier up and climbed the fence wall.
At this time, the infantry soldiers of the Xiaoguo Army had already put down their bows and arrows, picked up their weapons and condescendingly slashed and killed the enemy who climbed the wall, and the war entered the stage of hand-to-hand combat.
The infantry of the Xiaoguo Army fought in front, while the archers stood back and stood on the high platform behind to shoot at the rebel soldiers behind. Song Weizhao, Qiao Hengbo and other battalions each ran back and forth with a few heavy soldiers, and they went wherever there was a dangerous situation, playing the role of firefighters.
The offensive and defensive battles were quite tragic, people kept falling, and the fence wall was covered with blood. The rebels constantly climbed the fence wall, and some were cut with guns and bayonets as soon as they climbed the fence wall, and severed heads and belly breaks abounded. There are also people who have successfully climbed the high platform to fight with the Xiaoguo army, and the two sides are fiercely fighting around the fence and parapet, shouting and killing one after another, and the battle situation has entered a white heat.
The rebels have an absolute advantage in numbers, and more and more rebel soldiers are attacking, and the defense of the Xiaoguo army is in a precarious position, and it has reached the point of a critical attack.
Song Weizhao, Qiao Hengbo, Chen Hongcang, Xue Yongxi, Dong Hongyang, and Qu Guangshui were six battalions rushing back and forth to fight, fighting bloodily, and their whole bodies were blood-red, which showed that the battle situation was extremely tragic. Even this could not stop the rebels who kept climbing up, there were too many of them. The situation is critical, once the Xiaoguo army can't withstand it, I am afraid that it will be overwhelmed by more rebels who attack it, and several battalions are really anxious......
