Chapter 241: Fierce Battle (2)
"Immediately implement the original battle plan!"
Yun Ye roared loudly, and then led a few Western Army soldiers around him to retreat wildly, retreating into the military formation behind. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
After Yun Ye and the others retreated, the Western Army's military formation immediately unfolded, covering all places with huge shields, and then advanced step by step.
Yes, read that right, the Western Army is moving forward, and they are not afraid of these cavalry, because, these guys with shields in front of them, all of them are heavy infantry!
When dealing with the Huns before, the Western Army got a heavy armored cavalry, and now against the light cavalry of the Jin army, they no longer have heavy armored cavalry, but they can have heavy armored infantry, and now half of the remaining soldiers are infantry, and the stronger of them are selected, and then equipped with thick armor and weapons that are more than ordinary swords and shields.
The shield array advanced step by step, and the cavalry of the Jin army also kept attacking the shield array.
"Bang bang bang!"
The sound of impact kept coming, this was the sound of the war horse hitting the shield in the charge, but the war horse and the knights all hit their heads and bled blood, and they were not able to knock the shield array back half a step, but those knights were killed and injured one by one, either by the swords of the Western army soldiers, or they fell off their horses and then became meat sauce.
But this did not make the Jin soldiers stop, in fact, they couldn't stop at all, because the cavalry behind kept trying to rush forward, and the order given to them by the Shangguan was to charge forward, so no matter what was in front, they had to rush forward.
Moreover, this place is already narrow, and the Western army has blocked all other small passages, leaving only this one street, and they can only charge this way, and only by washing away this shield array can they continue to move forward.
The soldiers of the Western Army are like Shura, holding a shield in one hand, in front of them, resisting the charge of the Jin cavalry, and holding a huge war knife in the other hand, they only need to stretch out the war knife, and naturally the Jin cavalry will rush up by themselves, and they will rush forward and rush to the war knife one after another.
Most of the soldiers behind them stabbed their spears forward from the gaps, poking the Jin cavalry who tried to get close and destroy the shield array into hedgehogs.
The soldiers in the back row were also constantly using their bodies against the bodies of the soldiers in front of them to ensure that they could maintain the shield array and not fall, and then continue to consume the Jin army in this way.
"Up!"
"Take a step forward!"
The shield was withdrawn from the ground, and the heavy soldiers took the shield and pushed it forward, then took a step forward and fixed the shield on the ground again.
"Kill!"
The shield fell to the ground heavily, and then the swords of the Western army stretched out from behind the shield, killing all the Jin cavalry that re-pounced on the first column without missing a leak, and then continued to slaughter the next group of Jin cavalry who rushed forward one after another.
In fact, with such a narrow terrain, the numerical advantage of the Jin army could not be brought into play at all, and they could only pray that the soldiers of the Western Army would get tired and exhausted quickly.
But how many people do you need to fill it if you want to kill them with your own lives?
At the beginning, the Jin army was already careless, they were too light on the enemy, after breaking through the city gate, they thought they had won, no matter what, they were so many more people than the Western army, no matter what conspiracy they had, in front of absolute strength, they felt that they would be pale and powerless.
But now it seems that they were wrong, they were very wrong. If they continue to fight like this, the Western Army will be able to wipe them out!
But there is no good way to do it at the moment, unless they retreat for the time being, and then rearrange the battle plan.
But this is obviously a very difficult decision, they have already had so many warriors fall, let them just give up the gains they already have and withdraw, and then they have to sacrifice some people to recreate such results, they can't do it.
Therefore, the road on the tower became a good choice, and if they could capture the tower, their cavalry would not have to launch such a suicidal charge.
If they can capture the tower, the situation will change a lot, as long as they capture the tower, then the initiative will be in their hands.
At that time, the battlefield will be shifted to the towers, and to these stairs to the towers, although these places are not suitable for cavalry battles, they can only dismount, and the swords of the infantry will suffer very much.
But compared to the current Jin cavalry constantly launching a suicidal charge against the shield array of the Western Army, that would undoubtedly be better.
But now the western army on the city tower is also waiting for it, and from time to time sneak attack the Jin cavalry who rushed from below them, which makes the Jin cavalry overwhelmed.
Some Jin cavalry jumped down from their horses, brandished their sabers and rushed directly up the stairs towards the city tower, but the Western soldiers on the city tower were already waiting for them.
In their plan, they had long expected that the Jin army would attack the city tower because they couldn't gnaw the shield array on the street, so they already had a way to deal with it.
Several large shields blocked the passage from below, leaving not even the slightest gap, and behind the shields were sandbags filled with dirt, and the Western army had blocked all these openings, and unless they withdrew themselves, it would be difficult to attack them.
Behind the big shield is not only sandbags, countless Western soldiers are holding spears, once a Jin army wants to climb over the shield and rush up to the tower, as long as they show their heads, they will be poked into hedgehogs.
The archers also beckoned from above, and the Jin soldiers who dared to step on the stairs and vainly tried to attack the city tower needed to beware of the hidden arrows on the city tower.
But the Jin army is not completely out of the question, after experiencing the initial passivity, their current situation is not so bad, and they also have a lot of archers in their army, not enough archers? They still have so many soldiers, as long as they throw all the spears in their hands towards the city tower, they can at least harvest a wave of lives.
Now, they are preparing to do so, because they have not found another way for the time being, and if they attack like this, they will suffer heavy losses, and it is not even certain who will die in the end.
Countless spears and javelins were thrown from the bottom of the city tower to the city tower, and those thrown on the top of the city tower took away the lives of a group of Western army soldiers and young adults in Suizhou, but they did not have enough strength, and these spears and spears that fell back took the lives of some Jin soldiers.
However, they don't care about these, it's a big deal, use the corpse to balance the height of the tower, and then they are killing it. (To be continued.) )
