Section 815 The Bloody Battle of Abadan (1)

The city of Abadan is no stranger to the Western Army (Western Expeditionary Army), it is located at the mouth of the great river, the Indian Ocean and the Pacific Ocean can be directly reached by sea ships, and the river can enter the interior, and it is an important river and sea transportation hub.

If you lay down it, you can choke the throat of Da Shi Haihai, so that Da Shi can no longer get important money and grain income from the Indian Ocean, the South China Sea, and even Datang.

The Western Army has been here before, but today I found that it has changed.

Very good defense: double walls, high walls, deep moats, and a well-guarded garrison.

Fan Wuxian, who surrounded Abadan, swept the city through the telescope and muttered, "This city is not easy to fight!" ”

In the binoculars, I can see that the defenders are in good spirits, the spirit of the big cannibals is full, and what is even more terrifying is that when it is time to pray, the sound of the big cannibals' prayers is overshadowed for a while, and it is heard that they have firm faith!

If you don't have anything to say, then let's fight!

Sensing that the enemy was not easy to provoke, Fan Wushu postponed the date of the attack and first built a long siege to surround the city.

Then, outside the range of the enemy's trebuchet, a hill was built, a watchtower was erected, and a powerful observation group was arranged, holding long guns and short cannons to observe the situation on the defending city and help direct the battle.

He did not rush to attack, but constantly urged the army and gathered more men, and he was given 200,000 infantry, 50,000 cannibals to fill the ravines, and 80,000 people.

The siege troops prepared were all available, piled up, and Lou Shide, who was in charge of logistics, did a really good job.

He even quarries nearby to make round stone projectiles.

A full 500 catapults were prepared, and the fire preparation was carried out for five days!

Stone bullets hit hard, fire bullets rage!

The stone projectiles fired by the stationary trebuchet smashed the walls, making the strong walls tremble

Firebombs were raging, and mobile trebuchets approached the city and threw a large number of firebombs into the city.

Smoke billowed from the fire, drifting in the wind, and the whole sky seemed to be overcast......

At the same time, under the suppression of rockets and bows and arrows, the big eaters carried out the work of filling the ravines, and immediately encountered the ruthless arrows of the defenders!

At first they shot arrows next to the battlements, but met with a counterattack from the "sniper crossbows" of the Western army.

Compared to before, there were more sniper crossbows in Fan's uninjured army, and under the cover of other bows and crossbows, as long as the big cannibal showed his head, he would have a headshot.

The great cannibal immediately changed course, and the soldier carefully observed, put his shield on his head, opened a small slit with the battlements, looked down, and directed the archers of the city to throw them under the city.

The efficiency is a little worse, but it still shoots a lot of big eaters.

They can only sigh to themselves that they are unlucky.

Five days later, the Western Army officially launched an attack, and the sound of killing shook the sky!

The ants were attached to the siege of the city, and the ladders, ladders, rushing cars, and well railings were surrounded by an army like a vast ocean, and fiercely swarmed towards the city of Abadan!

The catapult of the great cannibal is now in full swing!

War is a catalyst for technology, and their stone projectiles have a certain characteristic, which is fragility.

Bounce off the ground, shoot in all directions, or simply disintegrate in the air.

Thousands of grains are enough to make people's heads bleed.

The original version of the flowering bullet has good lethality for the army, if it were not for the good armor of the Western Army, the effective protection of the shield and the field hospital, it would have been enough for the Western Army to drink a pot (medicinal wine).

The power of the Great Cannibal Fire Bomb explodes!

Poured on the body with fire oil and burned, and when the fire on the body was extinguished, those wounded soldiers were unbearable to witness, the skin was burned extensively, the whole body was as black as charcoal, not human-like, the black paint on the surface was cleaned up, and the red flesh without skin was exposed on the body, and some people were burned in large areas, and there was no good meat on the body, and they didn't know how to put it in the stretcher!

Seeing them suffer so much, the feeling of my colleagues is that they want to help them "get free"!

……

Thick smoke rose from the towering city of Abadan, and the sound of killing shook the sky, and the western army surrounded it and attacked it on all sides. I saw that there were people crawling everywhere on the high city wall, and they were attacking like ants possessing countless ants.

Countless bows and arrows and rockets flew in the air, and the fire bombs exploded continuously, and the whole city was like a huge chimney bursting, and the rockets were like flying dense sparks. The fire flickered above and below the city, and black smoke rose everywhere.

Ladders and ladders were piled up at the edge of the city, and the soldiers rushed to charge, while the enemy on the city poured a lot of stones and plaster, and even hot dung and hot oil fell down in a row, burning the soldiers to the ground and screaming and rolling everywhere!

There are not a few trapeze artists in our army who were shot down by the enemy, some of them are still jumping alive when they land, they still charge when they get up, and some of them fall to the ground heavily, and the impact is so great that the earth trembles, and people have become meat pies!

Rushing cars, ladders, ladders, and wells were the focus of the cannibal fire, and those that were close were burned directly with fire oil, and those far away were fired with trebuchets. As soon as it burned, even if it was covered with wet cowhide, it burned soon after, and finally became a large and small torch.

The army went forward one after another, the column suffered heavy casualties, and the battlefield looked extremely miserable, and on the city wall where the two sides were engaged, there seemed to be countless blood mist spraying!

The ground below the city is mixed with various colors, and the smell is unpleasant.

The Western Army struggled to climb to the top of the city, stepping on the corpses of their comrades, advancing step by step, while the Great Food Army resisted desperately, fighting for every inch of land.

Fan Wushu had only one order: "Attack, attack me!" ”

During the day, he was ruthless, but at night, he also muttered Buddhist scriptures to his comrades-in-arms who had arrived in another world!

The corpses in front of them were wrapped in rows, poured with fire oil, and burned.

For three days, 5,000 people died every day, and the corpses were only able to find some good places, burn them, and bury them.

Those places will become martyrs' tombs, remembered by their dogtags during their lifetimes.

At the same time, this also means that the city of Abadan must be captured, otherwise, once the western army retreats, the martyrs' tombs will not be safe!

……

On the fifth day of the battle, the weather was hot and windless, and thinking that the time was ripe, the Western Army threw a large number of chemical bombs into the city of Abadan!

The chemical bomb, which is a ball of poisonous smoke, exploded and made the whole city full of arsenic and wolf venom smoke, and the defenders suffered heavy losses!

They were poisoned, vomited, unconscious, and lost their ability to resist.

Suffocated by poisonous gas, spitting blood from their mouths and snot coming out of their noses, many people are in a half-dead condition, just waiting for the Western Army to climb the city wall and have a relaxing and enjoyable time!

But people are not as good as heaven, just when everyone thought that the victory was in hand, the god actually got wind!

The north wind suddenly rose and blew the poisonous smoke from the city to the western army in the south, so that they could take it all!

The army from the south learned of the suffering of the enemy, and they wept so much that they could not bear it, so they had to retreat.

And the western army from the other three directions rushed forward, and they successfully boarded the outer city, and flags fluttered everywhere, as if there was a chance to break the city.

The city of Abadan is boiling!
