Chapter 1221: Counterattack

Under Lu Xun's persuasion, Sun Quan also made a bloody investment for this counteroffensive. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

Just thinking about it, let two low-level soldiers become nobles, Sun Quan's heart is as uncomfortable as eating a fly.

But in extraordinary times, it is necessary to do extraordinary things, compared to being occupied by the Tang army in Fuchun Mountain, entering Fuchun, and promoting two nouveau riche, which is nothing, it is better to have someone in the way than to lose the battle.

A family background like Jia Hua can only be regarded as a scholar class at most, and it is far from the real aristocracy. Such a reward for ascending to the sky in one step, even when he heard it, he was thrilled, let alone an ordinary soldier?

The so-called heavy reward must have a brave man, as soon as the reward came out, the morale of the Eastern Wu army was suddenly boosted, and the panic of the right talent was all left behind, with Jia Hua's shout, the crowd of people in the dark was surging, against the mountain.

Countless torches were lit in the city and in the camp beneath the city, dotted with stars, and soon joined together to illuminate the cold night.

However, neither the top of the hill nor the assault troops were ignited, and attacking the top of the mountain was undoubtedly the most conducive to the power of long-range weapons.

The large number of sharpshooters in the enemy formation left an extremely deep and bloody impression on Jia Hua. At this moment, although he shouted loudly in his mouth, he would not be careless at all.

The visibility of the "bow and arrow preparation ......" was too low, and the advance speed of the mountain attack troops was not fast, and under Jia Hua's skillful scheduling, the more than 2,000 archers who had been temporarily mobilized had completed the assembly and could start remote cover.

Raising his hand and looking at the night of Fuchun Mountain, which is not only not precipitous, but can be described as low and gentle, Jia Hua is full of spirit.

Make a contribution and squeeze into the ranks of the family, just today!

"Shoot the arrows!" The raised hand waved down suddenly, and Jia Hua snapped off.

"Wind! Wind! Wind! "Like an echo, the archers' generals gave orders.

The rapidly trembling bowstring played a new chapter in the night battle, and the sharp neighing sound of breaking the air tore through the night sky!

"Kill! Assault of the whole army! Jia Hua shouted.

"Bow and arrow ready. Three salvos, don't give them a respite! ”

"Captain Wu, please lead a battalion of soldiers and horses to attack from the south, don't seek to attack the top of the mountain, as long as you can contain the enemy, it will be a great achievement!"

"Captain Zhou, please ......"

……

One order after another was issued like a stream, eliminating the interference of the heavy night, and the Eastern Wu army launched an offensive in an orderly manner.

"Your Majesty really has good eyesight. Ba Liang will be in the army, this courage is quite the legacy of Emperor Guangwu back then! ”

"Forgive that Li Yi attacked with surprise soldiers, the soldiers were only hundreds, and the location was only a small mountain, so he must have the heart of underestimating the enemy, so he raised troops to attack. But I didn't expect that His Majesty's command would be fixed, and the army would be like a good general, even if there was cover at night, he would not be able to escape defeat after all. ”

"Those who are good at water drown, those who are good at riding fall, Li Yi is a thief who is good at using strange soldiers, but this time he has the wrong idea, and he will eventually meet a tiger on the mountain. His main force was blocked in the north of Tianmu Mountain, and he dared to provoke to the south, isn't this death? I'll cut off his finger first! ”

……

Watching the river from a high altitude is certainly very tasteful, but the feeling of watching the battle from a high altitude is even better. Although the visibility is too low, it is difficult to see the specific battle situation. But when the offensive of the army was launched, in the haze, you could also see the ridges of the crowd surging; You can hear the bowstring fluttering and the sound of arrows breaking through the air; And then feel the atmosphere of the golden iron horse.

Accompanied by a pot of turbid wine, this feeling is even more intense, making people drunk, not feeling drunk, indulging in the reverie of the lupine towel talking and laughing, and the powerful enemy will be wiped out.

"Think about how big the Fuchun Mountain is, two thousand strong bows, three rounds of continuous shooting, presumably the mountain has been swept over, the thief army has suffered heavy casualties, how can the enemy be surrounded and suppressed by our army on three sides? The difference between victory and defeat is in an instant! Zhang Wen commented in a heroic tone, and everyone nodded in agreement.

Sun Quan was open-minded, raised his glass and invited: "Come on, come on, and let the soldiers go to capture the thief, all the kings have drunk this cup, and when the soldiers have captured and killed the thief, the banquet will be reopened, and the pride of breaking the enemy tonight will be given." ”

The ministers of Eastern Wu suddenly agreed, raised their glasses together, and the atmosphere suddenly became warm.

The wine glass touched his lips, Sun Quan was about to drink it all, and suddenly noticed someone's independent behavior, a trace of displeasure suddenly flashed on his face, and he lightly smacked the wine glass on the table, and said coldly: "Bo Yan, what do you say?" ”

"Don't dare." Lu Xun arched his hand and said, "The night attack of the Tang army came fiercely, and instantly defeated a battalion of soldiers and horses on the top of the mountain, at this moment, our army is attacking like a tide, but the top of the mountain is quiet, there is no movement at all, I am afraid it will ......."

Sun Quan was silent, and Gu Yi replied with a smile: "With the covering shot of two thousand strong bows, the soldiers on the top of the mountain have already suffered heavy casualties, so what can they do?" ”

Lu Xun shook his head and retorted bluntly: "Even if there are heavy casualties, there must be some movement, right?" ”

"That's ......" Gu Yi was stunned. He had read a lot of military books, but he had never really been exposed to real warfare. Let him comment on the battle situation, he can talk like a river, and talk endlessly without repeating it all night; Zhu Jie's article can also be written in a colorful way, which makes people read it with pride, but he knows nothing about the specific process and details.

In his mind, as long as he has great courage and momentum, and has a large army, then what is there to worry about?

The top of the mountain was empty, there was no cover, how could the enemy troops gathered together avoid the salvo of two thousand strong bows? Even if they get away with it, will they be able to withstand the onslaught that follows?

Lu Xun sighed mournfully: "This is a night battle, different, different. ”

Sun Quan and the others looked at each other, but they were very annoyed in their hearts, they knew that they had let Lu Xun stay below, and they were kind for a while, but they made everyone unhappy.

"Bo Yan's concerns are also reasonable, the lion fights the rabbit with all his strength, although tonight's battle will be won, but ......" Zhang Wen came out to play a round, and just halfway through the words, there was a sudden change under the mountain!

"Ah......" first sounded, and then came and went, and the sound became one, which was the absolute sound of attachment and unwillingness to life before people died.

The Tang Army's surprise attack troops, which had been enduring for a long time, began to exert their might.

The main purpose of the salvo is to disrupt the enemy's formation, so that the enemy cannot make the best defense, cover the mountain attack of the mountain troops, and enter hand-to-hand combat.

From the mouth of the rout, he had already learned the reality of the enemy army on the mountain, the number was small, only a few hundred, and the garrison on the top of the mountain could only be defeated, but not completely annihilated.

As long as the hand-to-hand combat is connected, no matter how elite the enemy army is, it is impossible to resist the continuous army attacking the mountain.

Of course, he did not forget the enemy's archers, nor did he ignore the terrain, but those sharpshooters used short bows with faster shooting speed and relatively short range, while the archers he organized used infantry longbows.

The longbow can fully compensate for the disadvantage of the terrain, so that the superiority in numbers will be enough to decide the outcome of the battle....

He was pleased with the effect of the first salvo, and the enemy forces were clearly suppressed.

As for the lack of movement on the mountain, he didn't pay much attention to it, maybe the surprise attack troops came one after another in order to maintain the effect of the surprise attack, so there was no scream, or the enemy army saw that they could not achieve the effect of the surprise attack, and they had already retreated.

However, after a few rounds of shooting, he began to get restless.

When the enemy began to counterattack, he was even more shocked, and his heart was bright, the enemy army was not suppressed at all, they were just waiting for the opportunity.

The momentum of the mountain siege force was like hitting an invisible wall, and the vanguard was scattered in an instant. The dead fell with a scream, the screams of which brought great fear to the timid comrades; The bodies that fell blended in with the mountain. It has become a new obstacle, tripping those fierce soldiers who are not afraid of life and death to the ground. Roll into a ball.

The enemy army was not uplifted, or wavered, and the sharp hiss continued one after another, like fine rain, falling from the sky, accurately finding one target after another, drinking blood, and refusing to give up.

"Help!"

"It's a sharpshooter, a lot of archers!"

"Raise your shield. Where are the shield hands, line up the shield array! ”

"Disperse, disperse, don't get together!"

……

The attacking troops were stunned by the sudden blow, and at once they became a mess, some were screaming, some were running in all directions, and some were giving orders, trying to reorganize the offensive. But the command is not only contradictory, but also simply out of date.

Shields? How can it be! It's a night battle! If it weren't for the fact that the mountain was really flat, it would have been impossible to organize an attack on the mountain.

Forming a straggler array is a good idea, but although the Soochow army is also considered elite, their commanders are far from the level of commanding night battles and gathering and scattering freely.

Night combat is not a conventional method of warfare. Many soldiers could not see at all at night, which is known as night blindness.

You can't even see anything, so what's the talk of war?

Generally speaking, the victory or defeat of a night battle does not depend on the military strategy of the main general or the elite of the troops, but purely on luck.

If you can't see it, you can only fight and kill indiscriminately, and it's hard to say whether it's the enemy or your own people.

In a night battle, the loser suffered heavy casualties, and the victorious side was not much better, and both sides were usually defeated.

Therefore, as a last resort, few generals chose to fight at night.

"Raise the fire, bring the torch!" In the chaos, I don't know who was the first to shout out, since it has caused a lot of resonance. Qi Cheng was promoted too quickly, his prestige was not high enough, and at a critical moment, his orders were easily forgotten.

"Idiot, light some torches, look for death!" Jia Hua stomped his feet in anger.

Ignition in a night battle, isn't that a vertical target?

Few people heard his shouts, but the screams that followed were a wake-up call for everyone.

As soon as the torch was lit, the person who carried the torch and the person who lit the torch fell one after another, apparently becoming the target of the shooters on the mountain.

"This ...... That's not right! It's so dark, we can't see them, how did they see us? "It's not that the generals of Eastern Wu don't understand the truth that it is dangerous to raise fire in night battles, but the problem is that the enemy's arrows are shot very accurately, and the visibility is limited, and no one can specifically evaluate the results, but after each round of the enemy's shooting, there will be a scream, obviously not blindly shooting.
