Chapter 1078: The Iron Armor Is Still Here!
The original intention of the carp was to wait for the fire to spread out to stop the Zhao army, and then he and the remaining rhino guards went down to the Sui River. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info one can avoid the flames, and the other can cross the river to the other bank by the gap, of course, he does not want to escape, but to re-form on the opposite bank, and then block the Zhao army for a few hours.
The courage of the Wu people was no less than that of the Qin people, but their flexibility and fickleness in battle were a few points better than the Qin army, which is why they were able to rise rapidly and run rampant in just a few decades.
However, Zhuan Carp never expected that there would be an army on the opposite side that was not afraid to go to the soup and fire......
In the crackling sound of the flames burning the grass and trees, a high-pitched drum beat violently, the rhythm first slowed down and then violent, and the momentum seemed to suppress the flame's tongue of fire by a few points. The carp, who was gathering his soldiers behind the wall of fire, suddenly turned his head and looked straight ahead of the voice, and then his eyes suddenly became stiff.
In the weakest part of the wall of fire, an array like a wall of fire burned against the tongue of fire. They took wet pistols or baskets of soil in their hands to extinguish all the flames that stood in front of them, so that those behind could come in smoothly. Occasionally, there was a fire on them that did not panic, and they drenched themselves with water before they came in, and at most they were burned a little fur.
Soon, the gap in the dense wall of armor fire poured in, and immediately, they formed a strict formation on the still smoking white ground. If you look closely, you will see that the infantry is only in the front row with spears, and the people in the back are holding round shields and ring-headed swords, but what is more remarkable is that the armor on their bodies is black and not leather, and when it is illuminated by the sun and fire, it reflects the luster of metal.
This group of people rushed into the fire in a daze, standing in front of Wu Jia, silent and murderous.
"Regroup!" Zhuan Kun knew that he would not be able to escape, but the group of Zhao pawns in front of him were infantry, and there were only more than a thousand people, less than half of them, Wu Jia could completely push them back into the fire field and evacuate again.
They were gathering, and the enemy did not rest, and with the beating of the waist drum, the two huge infantry phalanxes, one on the left and one on the right, began to walk slowly towards the riverbank. In the eyes of the people of Wu Guo, Zhao Shu was tall and big, seven or eight feet long, in stark contrast to Wu Jia, who was slightly shorter and more flexible in the south, perhaps because the armor was too bulky, and every time they took a step, they felt that the earth was slowly trembling......
The face of the carp is becoming more and more solemn, the victory is in the whole formation, not fast, don't look at the bulky Zhao army, but their pace is almost uniform, it can be seen that this is an elite army, after countless training, I have seen countless battle formations. Their slow approach has already brought a huge sense of suffocation to the Wu people who were waiting for work in place, giving people the feeling that a wall or a mountain is slowly pressing down, and even worse, they are still unavoidable, which is a completely different experience from the previous confrontation with the cavalry.
The carp raised his hand, and the hundreds of Wu Jia, who had not thrown away the bow just now, opened their hard bows, and they were very calm, and only let go of their arrows and threw feather arrows after the enemy army entered within a hundred paces.
There was a crisp clanging sound, and the rain of arrows falling from the sky fell on the front row of the Zhao array, perhaps because of the shield blocking, it didn't seem to cause much damage, and the other party's array was not panicked at all, not chaotic at all.
The crucian carp was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly shouted: "Shoot again!" ”
"Tense and tense ......" The continuous bowstring ejection sound sounded, and the people of Wu tried their best to open their bows, and the arrows flew like locusts, sweeping in front of the enemy's formation.
However, nearly a thousand arrows were fired, only to see dozens of bodies lying down. The rest of the warriors ignored the rain of arrows that continued to fall, and still marched forward in unison, like a moving jungle of steel.
"What's going on?" The Wu people were already a little frightened, and they looked at each other on the ground.
This time, the power of the Wu people's salvo was not weaker than before, but Zhuan Kun was stunned to find that many arrow clusters were obviously not blocked by the shield, and they were shot at the enemy, but they bounced off lightly, just splashing some sparks......
He noticed that a target he had personally aimed at had hit more than one arrow, but those feathered arrows had only penetrated into the gaps in the Zhao pawn's armor and hung on his body, but the man did not feel any pain, and still walked in unison.
Looking at Zhao Zu, who did not dodge or dodge, and braved the arrows to approach him, finally made this group of Wu people who were not afraid of death feel a trace of fear and nervousness.
"The enemy's armor is ...... different" But the carp didn't have time to think of a way, the enemy army had already approached thirty paces away and began to charge!
"Second and third sons! Follow me forward! The crucian could only draw his sword hard, roar hoarsely, and wave the long sword in his hand, causing the archers to retreat, driving the horizontal formation of shield soldiers and spearmen forward.
At this moment, if you stand on a high place and look down, you can see that on the white ground that has been burned black by the flames, two moving walls composed of armored samurai are rapidly approaching. Twenty steps, ten steps...... They can already clearly smell the stench coming out of each other's mouth and nose, and see each other's faces covered in their chests, whether crazy, afraid, or trembling......
With a loud "boom", the ironclad soldiers of the Zhao army, the rhino guards of the Wu Kingdom, and the invincible leaders of the two infantry teams in the north and south finally collided together!
……
"Boom!"
The two armies composed of heavy infantry collided together, and at this moment, it was as if the co-workers had touched Buzhou Mountain in anger, and the sky shook.
The collision was accompanied by heavy casualties. Zhao Wushu's ring head knife was cut down, Wu Guoren's spear stabbed out, and the two sides were fighting with their lives, and the dying screams and crazy shouts sounded at the same time, making the heart of the carp that was already seeing death as home sink a few points.
Unable to move, not only did the arrow shoot to the enemy and the damage was minimal, but when the two armies were in close combat, the rhino armor guards, who had always been good at battle in battle, were desperate to find that Wu Guojinge, who was invincible in the past against the leather armor of the Chu people and the Yue people, was now broken and sunk into the sand. When the spear touched Zhao Shu's armor, it was like slashing on a stone, which shocked Wu Zu's palms numb, but the other party was not seriously injured, but raised his knife again to kill Wu Zu, and the ring knife brought up pieces of blood.
"It's ...... Ironclad"
After another Wu pawn rushed up to his death, Zhuan Kunkan took a step back, his heart had sunk, these Zhao soldiers were wearing iron armor that seemed to have been used when Zhao and Qin Wei fought last year, there were only a few hundred people at that time, but now it has expanded to a thousand people, forming an invincible phalanx.
It is also the misfortune of the rhino armor guard, who fought all over the south and was invincible, but he met such a nemesis.
Compared to the iron armor, although the water rhino armor is valuable and has excellent protection effect, it is still very fragile under the attack of forged iron weapons, and if it cannot be cut once, then cut ten times, and the rhino armor will always be split before the ring head knife breaks. Besides, the rhino armor is a whole piece, which can also protect the chest, abdomen and back, and the rest of the places such as hands and feet, are touched by the ring knife, and the flesh and blood immediately fly.
There are three urgent ones in battle: one is to get the terrain, the second is to serve the soldiers, and the third is to use the tools. Today, the terrain is a gentle slope that hits the riverbank, the soldiers are well tempered, and the armor and weapons are more solid and sharp than the enemy's. This made the morale of the loyal and strong Zhao soldiers even higher, although the Wu people were twice as large as them, but with their irresistible momentum, they pressed and beat each other, and used their own war knives to wantonly slash and kill the Wu soldiers, disrupting their battle formation.
The sudden impact did deal a heavy blow to the Wu people, causing them to suffer a lot of blows, and they could only rely on personal bravery to maintain their undefeated.
Zhuan carp is the son of Zhuanzhu, since he was a child, he has practiced a superb martial arts, and at this moment he was forced to a desperate situation, he is like a wild dragon going out to sea, fighting hard. The jujube red face was stained with blood gushing out of the enemy's body, and at a glance, it looked extremely hideous and terrifying. In the bloody battle, he had no chance to wipe away the blood that poured into his eyes, so he could only widen his eyes, wield the long and short two swords in his hand and slash horizontally and vertically, and constantly cooperated with the robe beside him to resist the impact of the enemy. If he can't pierce the enemy's armor head-on, he looks for places that are not protected by iron armor: wrists, ankles, necks, gaps, ears and nose, in short, all his physical abilities.
Under the inspiration of the carp, many Wu soldiers followed the example, they took three people as a group, five people as a formation, long ge, short sword, shield can attack and defend. The most shocking thing in these formations, there are actually Wu soldiers who bend their bows and arrows to provide support for the robe in the distance with cold arrows, at a distance of less than ten paces, even the iron armor is not easy to defend against sharp arrows. After the initial panic and casualties, with the cooperation of the small battle formation and superb personal martial arts, the Wu people, who had been defeated all the way, seemed to have stabilized their positions and curbed the impact momentum of Zhao Wushu.
It's a pity that personal bravery plays a very small role in this kind of heavy infantry phalanx contest, to a large extent, this is a game of strength, you push me, see who loses first. Only a moment has passed since the battle, but Zhao Bing's refined ring-headed knife has formed a huge lethality, the leather is not as good as the iron after all, the rhino leather armor on their bodies has lost its former effect, hundreds of Wu Jia have suffered heavy casualties, but less than 100 people on the other side have fallen.
No matter how tenacious the Wu people on the flank battlefield were, just talking about the front, under the continuous push of Zhao Wushu, the original array was torn open a huge opening, and the lone Wu soldiers who lost the cover of the battle formation were caught under the iron knife, almost killed and wounded, and the formation of the Wu people was also completely torn in half, and the end could not echo......
When the two divisions of the Wu army fought separately, the advantages of the Zhao army became more and more obvious, and the Zhuan Kun found that once they stood in position, it would be difficult to defeat them, which really deserved the reputation of "immovable as a mountain".
Seeing that the situation was getting more and more critical, Zhuan Carp heard a roar from outside the fire again!
A flag pierced through the wall of fire and appeared behind the battle formation. This time it was a group of soldiers in light armor and even naked, the soldiers in the front row, each holding a red shield and a sword shining with cold light, and a short spear and halberd in the back row, and above their heads were several fiery red military flags, three bright yellow flame embroidery patterns dancing above.
This is the assault force of the Zhao army, known as the "invasion like fire" of the Tian Benbu soldiers!
Tian Ben took the lead, raised his weapon, and shouted loudly: "It is not only the iron armor that goes to the soup for the king!" ”
When this group of soldiers roared and rushed towards the Wu Formation, which had been torn in half, from the rear like a tidal wave, Zhuan Kun closed his eyes in despair, he knew that this battle in flames had come to an end......
