Chapter 780: The Final Battle 4

Updated: 2013-07-07

Boom!

The soldiers of the Shule country who crossed the rain of arrows and crossbows of the Zhao army finally collided with the military formation at the front of the Zhao army, and the impact of the weapons instantly drowned out all the other sounds, and the soldiers on both sides in the middle of the collision felt that their hearing disappeared without a trace in an instant, and there was only a shaking figure without a sound in front of them.

However, the collision between the two sides is obvious, and the advantage is in the hands of Zhao Jun. The soldiers of Shule are like huge 'waves' between the seas, and finally hit the rocks by the sea, 'stirring' and 'swinging' the most gorgeous 'waves' and 'flowers', although this 'wave' and 'flower' are dyed red with blood, the beauty contains cruelty, and the 'passion' contains death.

The giant shield defense line in front of the Zhao army shook a few times in the end, but it still blocked the collision of the soldiers of the Shule country. Immediately afterwards, the soldiers behind the giant shield quickly stabbed the enemy soldiers outside the giant shield to death. The pikemen in the rear also followed, and from the gaps in the shields, they poked out their spears one after another, and stabbed at the enemy soldiers outside the shields.

Bang, the muffled sound of the continuous scurry sounded from outside the giant shield, and the huge impact force made the Zhao soldiers behind the shield begin to retreat involuntarily, but they were all resisted by the Zhao soldiers. The long knife in the hands of the soldiers of Shule State, in the face of the huge iron shield of the Zhao army, finally failed to make a contribution in the first place.

For the soldiers of the Shule Kingdom, if they wanted to get close to the Zhao army's military formation, they had to pass through the blockade of the Zhao army's arrows and crossbow arrows. Often, only half of the ten people could successfully rush to the front of the Zhao army's military array, and the rest were all under the rain of arrows and crossbows of the Zhao army, becoming corpses on the snow.

Poof! Poof! Poof!

This kind of sound resounded continuously on the battlefield, like a cotton 'flower' seed that was constantly bursting. In fact, this is the sound of arrows and crossbows constantly 'shooting' into the human body, and the crossbow arrows 'shoot' deeply into the human body, tearing the muscles and flesh, and breaking the bones, at the beginning. This sound is enough to make people tremble inside, but slowly, this sound gets used to it, because it never stops, and everyone who hears it has become numb.

Even if some of the soldiers were afraid and unwilling to move forward, the army behind them 'forced' him to move forward, because they had no room to turn back. As a result, these Shule soldiers have forgotten everything frantically, and in their minds, they can only rush forward.

"Up! Above! Above! Move forward quickly, as long as you rush through the other party's arrow rain covered land, everyone is safe, let me defeat the Zhao army and rush out. "The king of Shule and the officers of all ranks in the army of Shule kept shouting, urging the soldiers to move forward quickly with the shields they had suggested.

As the main attacker, and the one fleeing for his life, King Shule could not help but urge his soldiers to speed up their advance and engage with the Zhao army. They also knew that at the beginning of the war, the price they needed to pay was generally very heavy, and they also believed that the archers of the Zhao army could not keep 'shooting', and the archers were people, not gods.

No matter how the soldiers of Shule State moved, the Zhao army was still blocking the enemy's advance in the front, and the arrows and crossbows in the rear were flying sideways, constantly 'shooting' to kill the enemy army rushing over.

The Zhao army and the Shule State were at the forefront of the meeting, and the 'engagement' battle had begun, and the Zhao army relied on the huge shield soldiers in front of the defense, and the sword and shield soldiers and pikemen killed the enemy army, which made the casualties of the Shule soldiers who rushed over extremely serious. After all, they crossed the Zhao army's rain of arrows and galloped hundreds of meters to get close to the Zhao army, but the Zhao army waited for work, not to mention that the armor and equipment of the Zhao army were far stronger than the weapons and equipment of the soldiers of the Shule country.

Gradually, the corpses in front of the Zhao army piled up and gradually rose, from the front of the Zhao army's army formation to a stone's throw away, in the middle of the area, the snow has been covered with corpses, even if the soldiers of the Shule country want to advance, they must also be hindered, and they have to step on the corpses that are covered with robes to advance.

"General Li, let the army slowly retreat, and the corpses in front of the army formation are piled up, which is not conducive to the defense of the giant shield soldiers at the front." Situ Liang said in a deep voice to Li Chenfeng on the side.

Li Chenfeng saw that in front of the military formation, especially in front of the giant shield of the giant shield soldiers, the corpses of the soldiers of the Shule Kingdom had piled up close to half a person high. Coupled with the corpses on the ground, the obstacles to the advance of the soldiers on the ground who were originally slow to move forward have also disappeared. This made the "engagement" of the soldiers of the Shule State in the "handsome" place of the military formation not be too disadvantaged. What's more, many of the Shule soldiers were able to pile up their corpses and jump over the giant shield to attack the sword and shield soldiers and pikemen behind them.

Although most of the soldiers of the Shule Kingdom were killed by the soldiers of Zhao after the giant shield, they also disturbed the original tight military formation of the Zhao army. Even if Situ Liang didn't remind him, he was also ready to let the army retreat, make room for it, and continue to deploy formations to kill the enemy.

Li Chenfeng knew very well that if his side wanted to exchange the smallest loss for the greatest victory, he had to rely on his own strictly forbidden military formation. Although the soldiers of the Shule State on the opposite side are inferior to the soldiers of the Zhao Army in all aspects, the soldiers on the opposite side are now fighting for survival, and they are crazy about their desires and 'melee' battles, although they can win, the casualties must be very large.

The important thing is that there are a lot of soldiers here on both sides, but only two or three out of ten can take a head-on look, and they can take turns to fight. In addition, their own various materials are also extremely sufficient, and they can be consumed with the enemy army in this way, so that they can all die here.

"Crossbowmen, take turns to retreat, and shieldmen, pikemen, and giant shieldmen cover each other and retreat backwards."

"Order the rear, so that the soldiers in the second round are ready to fight! Set up three hundred meters away and prepare for battle. ”

With an order, the crossbowmen in the rear of the Zhao army took the lead in retreating, and withdrew in an orderly manner outside the inner beard and repaired in the rear. The new round of giant shield soldiers, sword and shield soldiers, pikemen and crossbowmen rearranged their formations after three hundred meters.

"Zhao Jun's arrows are gone, Zhao Jun retreated, speed up! Kill me! As soon as the arrows and crossbows of the Zhao army stopped appearing, the Zhao army in front of them began to slowly retreat, and the soldiers of the Shule State began to shout.

Some Shule ** officials naturally understood that they didn't know whether the arrows and crossbow arrows of the Zhao army on the opposite side were gone, but the other party retreated in an orderly manner and was not very chaotic, indicating that the other party was ready to continue to deploy in the rear.

Although they were well aware of this, the officers encouraged the non-commissioned officers to hurry up, and they wanted to take advantage of the opportunity, so they advanced as fast as possible, only by shortening the distance between the two sides as much as possible. Only then can they avoid the blows of the Zhao army's arrows and crossbows, and only then can they break through the Zhao army's military formation.

"Quick, speed up, warriors, break through the Zhao army's army formation and kill it!" A thousand men shouted loudly and ordered the soldiers to speed forward. His identity was revealed in this action, which immediately brought him fatal consequences.

"I let you dodge a few times just now, this time, hum ......" In the middle of the Zhao army's formation, an archer who was about to retreat snorted coldly and 'shot' the arrow in his hand.

The thousand generals were brandishing this long knife and ordering their soldiers to move forward, only to hear a whoosh, and immediately felt that something was wrong, and hurriedly looked back, but before he could see the situation clearly, an iron arrow flew head-on, just 'shooting' his wide open mouth. The arrow 'shot' through his mouth, then through the back of his head, nailed to the 'chest' of the soldiers behind him, and as a result, the thousand men who led the front army would involuntarily fall backwards, overlapping with the soldiers who were hit by the arrows behind, and slowly falling......

"Crossbowmen! Let's go! Seeing that the giant shield soldiers, sword and shield soldiers and pikemen in front of him began to retreat, the soldiers of the Shule Kingdom began to press up, and Li Chenfeng ordered in a cold voice. The herald next to him immediately waved the small flag in his hand and passed the order to the officer in front.

"Crossbowman, shoot!" In the new army formation, among the crossbowmen, the orders of various officers were immediately heard. Almost at the same time, in the formation of the Zhao army, there was another sharp roar.

"Woo Woo ......"

"Damn it!" In the Shule ** formation, many rear officers couldn't help but curse, but in the stunned whistling sound, the eyes of these rear officers had a feeling of sudden blackness, which was originally fluttering white snow, but suddenly, it became a black and white 'color', and even the snow was blown away. Dense bolts of arrows and crossbows, like the roar of death, flew fiercely towards the target.

"Bang Bang Bang ......"

"Buzz ......"

"Boom Boom ......"

Arrows and crossbow arrows rained down on the soldiers of the Shule State who were marching rapidly because of the retreat of the Zhao army, making a chaotic sound. Some of the arrows and crossbows were blocked by simple wooden shields, and were 'inserted' into the wooden shields, and the shafts of the arrows trembled back and forth, making a buzzing sound; some were blocked by the Shule soldiers with their weapons and fell into the snow; but more arrows and crossbows penetrated the gaps between the wooden shields and directly 'shot' into the bodies of the Shule soldiers behind the shields; but most of the Shule soldiers did not have wooden shields, especially after some officers said that the arrows and crossbows of the Zhao army had been exhausted, and the wooden shields that were in the way were directly abandoned. As a result, they were attacked with the most terrible attacks of arrows and crossbows.

People kept falling, and the advancing Shule soldiers kept appearing one by one, and then they were filled by the follow-up soldiers, and some wooden shields were also difficult to withstand the 'shooting' of a huge number of arrows and crossbows. After all, this wooden shield could not protect the whole body of the soldier.

Soon, the soldiers of the Shule Kingdom once again engaged the Zhao army in close combat, and the two sides repeated the previous battle again. This time, because of the retreat of the Zhao army, the Shule soldiers were 'approaching' a lot, and because of the preparations, the shields in the hands of the Shule soldiers also increased, so that the front of the Zhao army's army was full of Shule soldiers.

"Get on the 'bed' crossbow! Give me a hard squeeze on the enemy's offensive. Li Chenfeng ordered in a cold voice. Although the bed' crossbow is slow to fire, the effect brought by it is second only to the earth-shattering thunder. The Heaven-Shaking Thunder can't be easily used yet, but the 'bed' crossbow is still okay.

"Upper crossbow arrow, 'shoot'!" Zhao Jun's 'bed' crossbow can have three arrows at a time, and the crossbow arrows are the thickness of a baby's arm, which can be easily disassembled and assembled.

"Buzz ......"

Because the speed of the crossbow arrows shot out is extremely fast, the sound of piercing the air is very harsh, like a short burst of thunder, absolutely shocking.

"Boom Boom ......"

Poof! Poof! Poof!

First, the wooden shield in the hands of the Shule soldiers scattered like confetti, and then it 'shot' into the bodies of the Shule soldiers.

The number of crossbow arrows is not very large, but the mechanical strength is far stronger than the human arm strength, so every crossbow arrow 'shot' will bring a large area of bloody rain and even take the 'life' of several people. The soldiers of the Shule Kingdom who rushed to the front were like opening the red 'color' dye shop in an instant, and countless pink 'color' liquids shrouded them in the hell of death. As long as a person is hit by an arrow, the people around him will turn dark red, which is splashing blood.

At this moment, the wooden shields in the hands of these Shule soldiers can no longer provide them with defense, and the wooden shields in their hands are like paper paste, shattering at the touch of a touch.

The visual effect of this crossbow is simply terrifying. Some of the bolts didn't 'shoot' them in the body, but 'shot' them in the head. The bolts will pick up his skull directly, separating the skull from his neck. Eventually, it flew hard behind until it hit a new target. Usually this new target will be hit by the crazy skull, and in the end, it seems that two large watermelons collide, and they are all smashed to pieces, leaving only a blur of red and white.

Countless blood arrows burst out violently, wanting to draw a perfect parabola in the sky, leaving the last gorgeous trace of the master in the world, but unfortunately, this small wish could not be satisfied, so the team was too dense, and after the blood splashed out, the only result could only be hit on the people around them, dyeing their whole bodies dark red, as if they were constantly bleeding.

Soon, the white 'color' on the ground turned red, and the entire snow was filled with corpses, and the whole snow was stained red with blood. Arrows and crossbow arrows, because they are too dense, on average, need several or even dozens of arrows to 'shoot' and kill one person, but the crossbow arrows of the 'bed' crossbow can 'shoot' and kill several people.

In an instant, the soldiers of the Shule country, who were still fearless of death, were suddenly stunned, and the Shule ** formation, which was still dense, was suddenly empty.

"Damn it!" Looking at the situation in front of him, King Shule, who was located high in the rear, suddenly had a dark face, and smashed his fist on the wooden fence beside him.

"It's a hate, if only the terrain were wider, we can take advantage of our large number of soldiers. But now, completely let Zhao Jun replace us and block our way out. In just one hour, we have lost more than 5,000 people. The right general beside King Shule said with a look of pity.

"King, now that our army is attacking eastward, then the city of Kelu will definitely not continue to attack. Then I will find a way to lure the Zhao army in the city out of the city, so as to annihilate it, so as to take the opportunity to take the city of Kedu. One said in a deep voice.

King Shule said urgently: "How to act? ”

"The camp near Kedu City began to be dismantled, and the army slowly moved eastward, so that the Zhao army in Kedu City knew that we were ready to go east, so that the Zhao army in Kedu City was likely to be dispatched to cooperate with the Zhao army in the east and attack on both sides. And there are not many Zhao troops in Kedu City, as long as they go out of the city, we will take advantage of the situation to besiege them, and the rest, even if it is a strong attack, there is a high possibility that Kedu City will be taken. ”

The right general said in a sullen voice: "No, there are not many Zhao troops in Keluo City, and they dare to go out of the city to attack us?" ”

"If it was a normal day, they wouldn't have been, but now that we're going east, they're not going to be indifferent. Of course, they did have very few troops, but it was not impossible for the defenders of Kedu City to act from our rear to give our troops a fierce attack and hit the morale of our army. ”

"In addition, select some soldiers and 'mix' them among those wounded soldiers who are injured by the earth-shaking thunder and frostbite that are difficult to treat, and when the Zhao army attacks, they can take advantage of the situation to rush and kill. Let the cavalry also prepare, as soon as the Zhao army arrives, disperse the impact. ”

King Shule said in a condensed voice: "Just do this, no matter how big the price is, as long as you can take the city of Kedu, it will be worth it." ”

The shouting and killing sound that lasted for nearly two hours from the distance in the east naturally also reached the Keluo City, and the defenders of the Kedu City naturally knew that this was the 'engagement' of the eastern army against the Shule army. However, because of the long distance, coupled with the continuous snow 'flowers' in the sky, Zhao Jie and others, who have clairvoyance, cannot see clearly.

However, when the defenders of the Shule State camp outside the city began to withdraw and headed east, Zhao Jie and others understood a little that it must be that the army in the east was attacking too fiercely, so that the Shule ** team outside the city saw that the capture of Kedu City was fruitless, and they were ready to flee east.

As the Shule State strategist said, the generals and colonels above Kelu City are also preparing to go out of the city to attack the rear of the Shule State army, and attack the army in the east on both sides.

However, neither Zhao Jie nor Deputy General Mu Feng agreed. In Zhao Jie's opinion, this Kedu City is very crucial, and there must be no accidents, and there are not many defenders in Kedu City, so they can't fight easily. For a calm Mu Feng, the eastern army is fully capable of dealing with the Shule soldiers outside the city, and there is no need to fight on their own.

Of course, Zhou Qing's lieutenant thought that with the earth-shattering thunder in his hand, he could completely cause huge casualties and psychological pressure to the army of Shule State. A two-sided attack will definitely reduce the fighting spirit of the soldiers of the Shule Kingdom. After all, there were tens of thousands of Shule soldiers outside the city, more than the army in the east, and they couldn't watch it.

In the end, Mu Feng released the falcon and sent a message to the eastern army to inquire about the situation, and the soldiers expressed the ** of the soldiers in battle. But Situ Liang did not agree, and told them to be on guard. After all, this is the last moment, and Colo City is extremely important. It was to the east, and the army of Shule was fighting to the death, allowing the Zhao army to constantly replace the military formation. If there is another problem in Corocity, it will be in vain. At this moment, the soldiers of Shule are not afraid of death, if it is not because it is too difficult to attack the city, I am afraid that Kelu City has already been lost. Therefore, the defenders of Kedu City still focus on sticking to Kedu City.

You know, the Zhao army also has no siege equipment, the most powerful weapons are the earth-shaking thunder and the 'bed' crossbow, if the army of Shule occupies the city of Kedu, completely follow the Zhao army's method of building the city with mud and ice water, block the city 'gate', and increase the height and thickness of the city, then, the Zhao army has a thunderstorm, and it can't blow up the city.
