A few pieces of minced meat splashed in the faces of Hojo Tokimura and Hojo Tokikoku, but they didn't react, and they were all stunned by the hellish sight in front of them!

What kind of weapon is this——?!

How do you resist it——?!

After the first round of projection, the return cannon immediately began to reload, and the impact point of the first shot was clearly seen, and the second time it was more accurate, and more bombs could be fired.

In order to avoid the bombs, some of the first people to react found a place to hide, while others began to climb to the top of the mountain. They don't know what this powerful weapon is, but they know very well that they can't deal with it at all, and they have to hide far away!

Hojo Tokimura and Hojo Tokikuni finally came to their senses when they saw the chaotic Japanese army, but they didn't know what to do for a while. The two looked at each other, suffering from no good solution.

At this moment, the second round of bombs from the return cannon was dropped. This time, there were more and denser bombs, and they were quite overwhelming, which frightened the Japanese soldiers into shouting and hurriedly running away.

Countless smoke and dust rose from the two mountains, and the fire flashed, flesh and blood flew everywhere, and the Japanese army was blown up in pieces. In order to deal with Angel, the Japanese army gathered too many heavy troops and arranged them on both sides, but this kind of dense formation, which was the most effective in the era of cold weapons, became the best target in the era of hot weapons that had just begun, allowing people to quietly see the alternation between generations.

The Japanese army had been blown up, and the Song army did not engage them at all, only threw some fireballs over, and the Japanese casualties were already so heavy that they did not match all their previous war experience, and no one knew what to do, except for the people who were hiding like headless flies, that is, the samurai who were at a loss with their weapons.

Suddenly, someone in the Japanese army shouted: "Rush! You can't hide back! The further back you go, the more you die! Immediately after, a group of samurai split the smoke of gunpowder, stepped over the corpses everywhere, and swooped down the mountain!

The call of this group of samurai woke up the Japanese army like a dream - yes, no matter what this weapon is, it is useless when it comes close, and it must be bullied into close combat!

Immediately, the samurai responded, let out a loud roar, and rushed down, maybe, this way he can live!

The shouting and killing sound of the Japanese army in an instant also woke up Hojo Tokimura and Hojo Tokikuni, and the two immediately ordered a counterattack and attacked the Song army's return artillery desperately!

Angel smiled slightly, two thousand spearmen were loaded on both sides, behind the spearmen, thousands of infantry cannons were ready to fire, followed by the Song army's strong crossbow and divine arm bow, and behind the Song army, there were a large number of Mongolian elite cavalry waiting for Angel's order.

The Japanese soldiers on the mountains on both sides raised their slabs and frantically pounced down the mountain, with a huge momentum, and the shouts of killing resounded in the sky!

Angier and Wang Li gave the order to shoot and fire arrows at the same time, and the return artillery also threw a third round of bombs into the ranks of the Japanese army.

The crisp sound of gunfire was drowned out by the sound of violent explosions, bullets and shrapnel flew in unison, and arrows were dense like a drizzle. The casualties of the Japanese army were even worse, so miserable that no one cared about how many people died, so they could only rush forward.

Through countless flames and a dense rain of arrows, a large number of Japanese troops finally stumbled to the foot of the mountain, but only six or seven of the ten men made it to the ground alive.

These people were the most elite samurai of the shogunate, and they had extremely rich experience in dealing with the enemy, and seeing that the Song army's formation was unbreakable, of course they would not ask for trouble, so they specifically stared at the return artillery attack with the greatest threat.

The actions of the Japanese army in the shogunate had been expected for a long time, and the gunners and crossbowmen of the Song army immediately laid down their weapons and moved out of the way, revealing a whole row of infantry guns behind them.

Angier waved his left hand twice, and then waved downward, and the 500 infantry guns close to the return artillery "bombarded" a salvo, and a barrage swept over and tore everything in front of him, and the more than 3,000 Japanese troops who rushed to the return artillery position were almost swept away!

Hojo Tokimura and Hojo Tokikuni watched as the more than 3,000 elite samurai who were still screaming and pounced on the return cannon just now fell to the ground in a blur of blood, and they were so surprised that they couldn't believe their eyes!

It turns out that the return cannon is not the most powerful weapon of the Song army, and the Song army has something even more powerful!

How is this battle fought——?!

The Japanese soldiers who had just rushed to the foot of the mountain looked at the corpses everywhere in amazement, who still had the courage to continue the charge? But what if you don't charge?

The return artillery immediately adjusted its range and direction and aimed at the Japanese troops at the foot of the hill.

The Japanese army was suddenly in chaos again, and those who turned their heads and ran back to go up the mountain again, those who wanted to try to run behind the mountain, and those who wanted to attack again all collided together, and even trampled on each other, embarrassed.

The return cannon was fired again, and the flames enveloped all the Japanese troops at the foot of the mountain, and the thick smoke of gunpowder filled the entire valley for a long time. The return cannon also stopped for a while, and it was necessary to wait until the situation on the other side was clearly visible.

But he didn't want to wait long, he rode alone to Angel and said, "Marshal, I want to lead the troops to kill him, how about it?" ”

Angel waved his hand and said, "Go ahead." ”

Nangjialu turned around and shouted, and the three thousand Mongolian elite horsemen immediately rode out and followed Nangjialu into the smoke of gunpowder.

When he got closer, he saw a tragic scene. At the foot of the mountain were scattered many corpses and incomplete corpses, blinded, deaf, and crippled everywhere, some were picking at their eyes, some were covering their ears and shouting, some were trying to bandage their wounds, and more were scurrying around, trying to distinguish the direction, and not knowing whether to escape or desperately.

Seeing this, Nangjia immediately led his troops to rush over.

The smoke of gunpowder in the valley is not easy to disperse, whether it is the Song army, the Yuan army or the Japanese army, you can clearly hear the screams one after another from the gunsmoke. When the smoke cleared, the Japanese troops at the foot of the mountain who had not escaped had been completely wiped out!

Nanga was able to kill him, and he had to chase him up the mountain, but he was recalled by Angel's order.

The 50,000 elite soldiers of the Kamakura shogunate have been killed and wounded by thousands of bombs and guns! What's more, the Song and Yuan armies were almost unscathed, while the Japanese army had no idea what to do!

The fear in the hearts of Hojo Tokimura and Hojo Tokikuni grew deeper and deeper, and their legs trembled involuntarily. They are not afraid of death, let alone war, but the Song army and the Yuan army under the mountain only let them die, but they do not give them the opportunity to fight. After paying more than 10,000 heavy casualties, and still unable to attack the opponent, is the Song army so powerful?!

The return cannon was reloaded, and another bomb would be dropped on his head at any time, so Hojo Tokimura immediately decided and ordered the Japanese troops down the slope to withdraw on both sides and give way to the road so that the rocks and logs could roll down the hillside.

The bombs fell again, and the Japanese troops who were retreating with all their might were killed again, but they could not care about it at all. At the moment, they had no other idea than to flee from the front of the hillside!

Angier had already prepared, and as soon as Hojo Tokimura's order was issued, Angier's countermeasures had already been made.

First of all, the return cannon is loaded with boulders, the firing range is adjusted, and the boulders are thrown in front of them, forming layers of natural obstacles.

Secondly, the craftsmen who accompanied the army erected a whole row of folded triangular brackets to delay the rolling stones and rolling wood. These triangular brackets are specially made by Cheng Yue, mainly made of iron sheets, and are very strong. After erected, it can be used for soldiers to rest directly on the battlefield, shelter from wind, rain, and arrows, and can also quickly become a defensive line, which is conducive to holding on, which can be described as a major invention of Cheng Yue.

The movements on both sides were not slow, and as soon as the Japanese army withdrew to the distance, a large number of rocks and rolling logs fell with a bang and rolled towards the formation of the Song army. In fact, there were still many seriously wounded Japanese soldiers on the slopes of the mountain who had not had time to withdraw, and the stones and rolling logs had not injured the Song and Yuan armies, but they had been ruthlessly crushed to death.

The trees on the hillside really blocked a lot of rocks and logs, and less than half of them were able to roll down the hillside. Because the mountain was gentle, half of it stopped. Ahead, the boulders formed a formation, and almost all the stones that were lucky enough to roll down here were blocked, and only some rolling logs were left to cross the boulder henge with momentum, but they had become the end of a strong crossbow!

The last of the logs were finally blocked by the tripods that were joined together, except for two rocks that broke through the tripods, but they only caused a small false alarm and minor injuries to two people, which was insignificant.

At this point, the Japanese army's biggest trick has also been used, but it is still difficult to shake the Song army and the Yuan army. Angier perked up his spirits and called Sun Huchen and said, "Sun Huchen, you lead the marines to be the vanguard, and you must attack the mountains on both sides, at least one of them." ”

Sun Huchen said loudly: "The last general must capture both of them!" ”

Angel smiled: "Then I will give you the spearmen, and the infantry artillery can also be commanded by you, if you can't take it down, I only ask!" ”

Sun Huchen's heart was crossed, and he said: "Yes!" "Go back and count 3,000 marines and 1,000 spearmen, loaded with guns and ammunition, fully armed. Behind them, tens of thousands of Song troops also raised iron shields, weapons in their hands, and raised their heads to attack!

Hojo Tokimura and Hojo Tokikuni lamented in their hearts when they saw that the stones and rolling logs they had worked so hard to prepare had not been built, but they could only recall the Japanese army again and vow to defend the mountain.

The Japanese army rushed back along the same road again, the scorching sun, heavy weapons, and difficult mountain roads, tired and sore, but then they had to face the main force of the Song army one after another, of course, it was a mess.

Attacking from the bottom up is a good time to give full play to the advantages of the Song army's weapons. Sun Huchen opened the way with spearmen, and when he encountered the Japanese army defending the terrain, he dragged up a few infantry cannons to bombard or throw a few bombs over, which was simple, rude, but very effective. The Japanese army had no way to resist Sun Huchen's tactics, and they fought desperately to the death.

For a time, more than 30,000 Japanese troops retreated one after another, and the carefully set up battle formations were precarious. The morale of the Song army is high, and they are pressing forward step by step, and they will soon be halfway up the mountain!

Hojo Tokimura and Hojo Tokikuni were shocked, and they couldn't care about their own face, so they hurriedly sent people to report to Hojo Tokimune, asking him to send reinforcements. (To be continued.) )
