Chapter Ninety-Eight: Attack and Defense

Bian Xi is a very shrewd person. Most of the shrewd people who write "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info are self-aware, and so is Bian Xi.

He knew that he was in force, and the commander could only be regarded as a middle-class asset in both aspects. It can even be said that it is still the kind of middle and inferior. Although there is nothing to see in the Northern Navy, where most of the civilian and military generals are mediocre, it is dwarfed by those world-famous generals.

Therefore, after seeing the army overwhelming the territory, his first choice was not to line up with his back to the camp, but to shrink back, defend with all his might, and pray that the enemy army would not come to attack him.

Unfortunately, this wish is destined to be unfulfilled. Gu Lu's trip was an elite outreach, and he had made up his mind to defeat the Northern Navy with an attack like a wind sweeping away leaves. The current level of technology and tactics is not up to the level of blitzkrieg, and he does not dare to leave such a large enemy stronghold behind him.

Under Gu Lu's order, the six thousand army stopped outside the attack range of the bow and crossbow. The soldiers preparing for the attack rested for a while and began to put on their armor. In non-combat, soldiers usually put their armor and long weapons on carts or mules and horses, which can save energy.

When it's time for battle, they put on bulky armor and pick up weapons that are long to a long time.

For such a battle, Gu Lu didn't have any other ideas. All stratagems, all stratagems, are aimed at weakening the enemy's strength before the battle, and all are aimed at forming a situation in which we are strong and the enemy is weak on the local battlefield. And when the battle begins, you don't need to think about it so much. At this time, all that is needed is a war!

The sword and shield men came first, the pikemen followed, and the crossbowmen came second.

The first wave of the attack numbered 1,000 men, three times as many as the defenders. It stands to reason that the lion and the rabbit are also doing their best, and they should press 6,000 people together.

But when it comes to going to war, there are many things to consider. There are two main willingnesses that are not all pressed, one is that the battlefield simply cannot spread the army of 6,000. The camp where Bian Xi was stationed was close to the river, and there were only three sides that could attack. And this camp can only accommodate three or four hundred people, covering a very small area, and there are only so many people who can attack it at the same time.

Another reason is that when the battle is fought in the front, the commander-in-chief must have enough reserves in his hands to put them into the battlefield at a critical moment, win in one fell swoop or calmly clean up the battle.

The army of the first wave of attack was divided into three small combat teams, led by Cheng Wu, Chen Heng, and Liao Li, respectively, and slowly pressed towards the camp where Bian Xi was stationed.

Bian Xi's palms were full of sweat, and he looked up at the sky. The weather was sunny and cloudless, which he liked the weather, but he was desperate for a heavy rain right now, if it rained, neither side's bows and crossbows could be used, and the defender would always have a better advantage.

However, with such beautiful weather, there was no intention of raining at all.

The sound of the horn sounded from the rear of the slowly approaching military formation, and Bian Xi was frightened and frightened, and came back to his senses. Estimating the distance between the two sides, he gave a loud order: "Release the arrows!" ”

More than 100 archers drew their strong bows and began to fire arrows at the approaching black formation. For a moment, the air was full of arrows that broke through the air, and the sound of "whooshing" filled the battlefield.

The archers of the defending side also knew that this was a critical moment, and they used their strength to keep firing their bows and arrows. Hundreds of powerful bows shot a continuous rain of arrows at the black-armoured soldiers.

The sound of "Ding Ding Dang" continued to sound, and the arrows and armor, shields, and helmets collided with human flesh, making a crisp sound of metal clashes. Arrows also entered through the gaps in the shields, piercing the armor of the attacking soldiers and piercing the soldiers' bodies.

However, the armor worn by these soldiers was all supervised by Gu Lu himself. Maybe the armor is a little heavier, but in terms of defense, there is absolutely no doubt. Hundreds of archers fired several rounds in succession, and thousands of arrows were fired into the formation, but they only shot down less than a hundred.

The bodies of the sword and shield soldiers at the front, as well as the shields they wielded, were already full of arrows, making them look like porcupines covered in thorns.

And after approaching a certain distance, the attacking crossbowmen also began to suppress the archers in the camp with a salvo under the leadership of the junior officers, and the attacking side always had the advantage of piling up long-range firepower in a certain direction.

Since it was a three-sided attack, Bian Xi had to spread his forces evenly on three sides of the camp, so that the defender's advantage in internal maneuver was not apparent.

Gu Lu extravagantly equipped all the crossbowmen with leather armor, and some crossbowmen did not wear leather armor, but put a set of iron armor on their bodies. Arrows came and went up and down the camp, one side was in a position to occupy the advantage from the height down, and the other side was outnumbered and well-equipped, and soon, the casualties on both sides began to increase.

But with the emergence of casualties, the advantage of the more people gradually emerged. The hit rate of the salvo was also greater than that of the free diffuse, and in Bian Xi's frightened eyes, the archers inside the camp were actually suppressed by the crossbowmen outside.

He made a "lotus" in his throat, and rubbed his palms vigorously against his body, and he felt that the sweat seemed to flow more. Fortunately, he still has some confidence in his own melee combat ability, in this era, although the bow and arrow can suppress the enemy, but in the end, it is the sword and gun in the hand that determines the victory.

The black armor soldiers have approached the gate of the wall, and the time of deciding the victory is approaching. Bian Xi felt that he couldn't bear it anymore. He roared angrily, exhaled and raised his voice, and the light on his body flashed, and he had already launched the unparalleled power.

Bian Xi used a special skill - ferocious, and for a period of time, his own force and attack power will be increased to a certain extent. The light shattered and sprinkled evenly on every defender in the camp, making them more combative.

It was only a little later than Bian Xi, and the same light lit up in the three military formations outside the camp, and the attacker also knew that the victory or defeat was in an instant, and they also used the accumulated strength as if they didn't need money.

The attack is strengthened, the defense is weakened, and the force is enhanced, and as soon as the three skills are used, the combat effectiveness of both sides is immediately leveled or even surpassed.

Gu Lu, who was sitting in the rear, watched all this indifferently without the slightest emotion. He hasn't yet reached the moment to make a move, and to deal with the small scene in front of him, he only needs a few partial generals to play. He will also continue to gather strength to prepare for the coming war. (To be continued.) )
