Chapter 129: Defeat
The night on the riverside was humid and cold, and the dense thunderous roar was indifferent, and the huge flames that bloomed in an instant, without half warmth, were like shining claws, tearing the coalition soldiers to pieces, and the rolling rising air waves, under the reflection of the firelight and moonlight, glowed with a strange brilliance, and quickly swept through the boundless company camp.

The people in the camp turned over on their backs, making a mess, Wu Yiren hid under the wooden frame, looked around with a gloomy face, where he entered, the fire was soaring, the corpses were everywhere, the soldiers rushed out of the camp with a wild shout, jumped into the icy river, the war horses stared at the frightened eyes, smashed through the fence, and fled in all directions.
In the face of the heavenly mighty attack, all the military appearance and military discipline have been wiped out.
A shrill chirping sound sounded in the air, and around the camp outside the city, there was a sudden familiar and terrifying sound, and a full 1,500 trebuchets took off their disguise, stretched for miles, lined up, and threw boulders one by one towards the opposite bank, emptying the area in front of the enemy camp, and at the same time shattering the last hope of the fleeing enemy army.
The screams intensified, the horses neighed, the boulders fell to the ground, and the flesh and blood flew sideways......
…… Bang Dang...... Bang Dang......
The faces of the soldiers of the trebuchet unit were solemn, the slaughter did not bring the slightest pleasure, the screams and screams on the other side, like a cry from hell, made their whole bodies stiff and their hearts trembled, and only the roars of the generals around them brought them back to reality, mechanically repeating the process of loading, adjusting and firing.
At the same time, the soldiers of the Qinglong and White Tiger battalions swarmed out, armed with weapons and bridge-building tools, and quietly went straight to the shore under the cover of trebuchets.
In order to improve efficiency, they used a simpler type of pontoon bridge, the Chain Bridge.
Each section of the chain bridge is only 10 meters, and is composed of 4 meters of logs with the thickness of a human head, which are connected by ropes and connected by iron hooks.
10,000 soldiers, carrying 500 sections of bridges, can erect 50 pontoon bridges, and another 30,000 soldiers directly cross the Anbei River to seize the beachhead and assist in erecting pontoon bridges.
In order not to attract the attention of the enemy, they used small boats to carry equipment, while the soldiers were immersed in the water and swam across the river.
The 30,000 soldiers were densely packed, like ants spread on the river, they went ashore, erected a simple horse, and then lifted the huge iron ingots that fixed the pontoon bridge on the tidal flat, and hung the pontoon bridge on the water with iron hooks, and then adjusted the position of the iron ingots according to the 50 fires lit on the opposite bank, so that the head and tail of the pontoon bridge kept a straight line, stable and firm, and soon set up pontoon bridges.
Fifty wide pontoon bridges float silently on the water, covered with thick soaked felt to prevent damage from sharp objects.
The brightly colored signal rose into the sky and bloomed high in the night sky, informing Gong Liangyu and others in the north, and also attracting the attention of the enemy in the camp.
Seeing this, Wu Yiren broke the cauldron and ordered the whole army to cross the river and attack the city of Qianshi. Thunder and fire carried Tianwei, they didn't have the courage to take its edge, and then let the Beiyan soldiers successfully cross the river, wouldn't they become the enemy on their backs, and there was only a dead end left.
Countless enemy troops poured out of the camp like mad dogs, rushing to the river, just the day before, they were still intimidating the city, who thought that the other party was like a beast of fierce beasts that had been lying dormant for many days, and in the blink of an eye, they showed their sharp claws.
Now, their minds are blank, and they just want to kill the enemies who stand in front of them and get out of this hellish place as soon as possible.
Under the protection of his own soldiers, Wu Yiren also ran to the pontoon bridge on the shore, and the deputy marshal Bruce led his troops out of the camp to arrange the defense line, but he has not returned so far, and it is estimated that there will be more than one luck. Only by rushing across the pontoon bridge and breaking through at night can there be a chance of survival.
30,000 soldiers crossing the river, all of whom are elite in Beiyan. The two army commanders took the lead, each leading their division commanders to defend the bridgehead to block the enemy's dying counterattack......
The distant drums quickly approached, and the enemy became even more frenzied. Chen Gaoshan in the formation roared again and again, leading the soldiers to continuously kill the incoming enemy soldiers, and through the raging firelight, it could be found that on the north bank of the river, blood and gas were churning, and corpses were piled up.
They don't know how many enemy soldiers are left, but Beiyan has already invested 100,000 troops here, and the soldiers have built an immovable Great Wall of flesh and blood with their bodies......
Suddenly, a calm whisper came from behind enemy lines:
Winding tuning!
Goal: 150 meters!
……
Shoot!
Airplanes! An incomparably dull string tremble suddenly sounded, and thousands of powerful arrows quietly arrived under the cover of the night, directly submerging into the crowd of enemies.
Rumble! Rumble! Rumble!
Wherever the arrow went, there was once again a huge fire and roar, and the enemy troops who were rushing forward were violently blown into the air without noticing.
In 5 years, the Destroyer Battalion has grown to a scale of 5,000 people, and the combination of No. 7 arrow and popping beans showed strong lethality, and only three rounds of fire were fired before destroying the enemy army.
The pressure in front of the Beiyan soldiers was greatly reduced, and they suddenly found that the enemy had a headless fly and began to run in all directions. They took advantage of the situation to press up and constantly compress the space of the enemy, and Guo Rusong also transferred the defenders in the city and quickly passed the pontoon bridge to support the friendly forces on the north bank.
……
Under the front and rear attacks, the soldiers of the coalition army finally collapsed and surrendered one after another.
We won!
We actually won!
The earth-shattering cheers of the Beiyan soldiers suddenly sounded on both sides of the river!
Chen Gaoshan was emotional, and ordered his subordinates to report the battle situation, collect and surrender troops, and clean up the battlefield, and the hundreds of thousands of surrendered troops were enough for them to be busy until dawn.
In the bright lights, he finally saw the team behind the enemy soldiers, a team of infantry, a team of crossbowmen, a team of cavalry, the number seemed to be only 20,000, and he couldn't help but be secretly frightened, with only 20,000 people, the opponent's 600,000 army was beaten to the head, and the strength of the combat effectiveness can be seen.
Looking at the other party's leader, it turned out to be an incomparably plump fat man, who was looking at himself with fleshy eyes, and he couldn't see what his expression was.
Chen Gaoshan looked slightly stunned, then smiled, stepped forward slowly, and saluted with fists: "Under Chen Gaoshan, thank you for leading the troops to help!" ”
"You're welcome!" The fat man also bowed his hand to him.
"I wonder what's next, General?" Chen Gaoshan asked with a smile.
"Wait a minute, wait a minute!" The fat man struggled to open his eyes and squeezed out a smile at Chen Gaoshan, looking a little obscene.
Chen Gaoshan didn't know why, so he had to laugh a few times and stand beside the fat man.
At this moment, the high-spirited Guo Rusong also took Sang Nan and the others to the other side, and saw the fat man standing with Chen Gaoshan at a glance, as well as the soldiers behind the fat man.
He laughed and strode forward, intending to express his gratitude to the other party, but as soon as he got closer, he saw 20,000 soldiers on the opposite side, all of them teasing the armor leaves, and half-kneeling to salute:
"Meet Childe!"
Guo Rusong's smile stiffened, and he froze in place, and only the fat man with an embarrassed expression was standing in front of him, as well as Chen Gaoshan. (To be continued.) )
