Chapter 512: Ice Cracks
On the Tuojiang River, the torches are like stars, illuminating the attack surface several miles wide, and the Zhenliao battalion takes over the Jinghai battalion to continue the attack, from the afternoon until this time, Zeng Chong's attack has never stopped, and the smooth Tuojiang River surface has been muddy at this time, blood and mud are mixed together, and they are trampled into a mass of mud by the soldiers' big feet. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Rao is the elite of the Dingzhou army, and his will has been refined by Chen Zeyue like steel, but in such a high-intensity battle, he still inevitably feels tired, and he just numbly swings his sword and gun, stabbing down and slashing the enemy who appears in front of him.
Since night, the trebuchets of the Dingzhou army have been continuously projecting grease-soaked bundles of firewood at the attacking soldiers, and these burning bundles of firewood fall on the ice of the Tuojiang River, and immediately make a swishing sound, although it will not be extinguished, but when it comes to killing, it is ridiculous.
Zeng Yiyang saw that the opponent actually wanted to attack with fire in such weather, he was surprised, but also couldn't help but feel funny, the burning firewood bundle fell on the river, and it seemed to be lighting the attacking army, it seems that the opponent is already poor in donkey skills, and it is impossible to do it, and it is likely that the stone bullets prepared are also exhausted, so he can only use this kind of thing to comfort the soldiers.
In the near second watch, something that made Zeng Yiyang excited finally appeared, the Zhenliao battalion attacked the river embankment, the first line of defense of the Dingzhou army was suddenly broken, and the soldiers of the Zhenliao battalion poured onto the river embankment like a tide. There is no need to attack the opponent on the back, which made Zeng Yiyang very excited, carrying a knife, personally walking to Tuojiang and stepping on the front line to supervise the battle.
Although the equipment of the Dingzhou army is excellent, with hoods, gloves, and cotton clothes, but in such weather, continuous combat, the cold weather still has a huge threat, Chen Zeyue, who has been sitting in the command of the Chinese army, has already frozen numb, watching the ants climb the river embankment, frantically rushing towards their last position of the enemy army, I can't help but feel a sense of powerlessness in my heart, there are too many enemies, even if I have caused huge losses to the enemy, but I have also suffered heavy sacrifices, and I have fought until now, More than half of his own soldiers have lost their combat effectiveness.
There are a large number of enemies, and they are not afraid of this kind of consumption, but how long can they withstand it, and the arrangement on the Tuojiang River has no repercussions so far, and Chen Zeyue can't help but worry that this method will work in the end, if it can't succeed, then today I am afraid that this is only my own place of benevolence.
Chen Zeyue does not think that he has the ability to hold out until dawn.
On the opposite side of the Tuojiang River, Zeng Chong saw that Zeng Yiyang finally broke through the enemy's first line of defense, and couldn't help but pat his thigh, shouting a good word, attacking the tough battle, the most difficult thing to fight is the first line of defense, especially today's battlefield, breaking the first line of defense of the enemy's heavy troops, is the reversal point of this battle, morale will be greatly boosted, the difficulty of the attack begins to decline, the soldiers no longer need to attack on their backs, the offensive efficiency will also be multiplied, it seems that the complete defeat of the enemy is not far away, stand up, pacing a few steps in place, and then look at the dark and heavy left and right, I finally made up my mind.
"Order the Jinghai battalion Zeng Yifei, transfer two wings, support the Zhenliao battalion, and strive to completely defeat the opponent before dawn!" Zeng Chong ordered.
A group of soldiers were thrown into the battlefield, on the opposite side of the Tuojiang River, hand-to-hand combat, in the forefront of the ice and snow fortress, the Dingzhou army began to fight hand-to-hand combat with the opponent, screams, screams, swords and guns, endlessly, blood splashed, poured on the ice, before it had time to flow in the cold weather, the new hot blood covered it, and there were constantly corpses heavily smashed on the ground.
Chen Zeyue has personally gone into battle, with his own personal guards, formed the last reserve, where the defense line is in danger, he rushed up, where he appeared, the pure steel knife has already cut out the gap, at this time, the whole army has fallen into a bitter battle, each fighting for itself, any orders can no longer be effectively implemented, the soldiers who fight desperately are just fighting to live, kill the opponent, they can live one more moment.
On the surface of the river covered with blood and mud, the originally smooth surface of the river has appeared as dense as a spider's web, and the cracks are expanding outward at an alarming speed, and the ice surface makes a terrible sound, but in the earth-shattering shouts of killing, this insignificant sound is really imperceptible.
Tens of thousands of people ran forward on the river at the same time, making the cracks longer and thicker, and cracks began to appear in some places that could insert a whole palm.
The Dingzhou Army Grenadiers at the rear of the position installed the last stone bullets, tightened the ropes, and violently sent out the stone bullets, and more than a dozen stone bullets fell on the surface of the river, no matter what results he caused, these throwers pulled out their waists and roared and rushed to the front defense line.
A stone bullet landed on the surface of the river, making a porphyry sound, which actually shattered the ice surface and splashed a few streams of water. A soldier who had narrowly escaped the stone bullet attack was doused with ice water, and he looked down in surprise, his eyes widened, and he could hardly believe his eyes, when did the thick ice become so thin, and he actually saw running water.
He opened his mouth wide, Kaka slammed one of his feet into the air, the whole person fell down, half of his body was immersed in the river, he threw away the weapon in his hand, and grabbed the river surface on his side with both hands, trying to get up, but with his strength, the ice on his side made a cracking sound almost at the same time, and with a bang, he fell into the Tuojiang River with great surprise.
Almost at the same time, there was a gratifying sound across the river, and the soldiers finally noticed the anomaly, stopped running, and looked at their feet.
Zeng Yiyang was full of spirit, holding a banner in one hand and wielding a big knife in the other, encouraging the soldiers to move forward, when the huge ice cracking sound sounded, he looked down in shock, but found that he was slowly sinking, and there were irregular cracks around the ice surface several meters wide under his feet.
How is this possible? The thought flashed through his mind like lightning, why did the ice crack in the Tuojiang River at this time?
"General, the river is broken!" A soldier shouted.
Without waiting for Zeng Yiyang to react, he had begun to accelerate his sinking, and at this time, a huge roar sounded on the surface of the river, and the originally integrated river surface was splitting into countless pieces at this time, and it was rapidly breaking open, and the soldiers of the Zhenliao battalion covering the river fell into the water like dumplings and disappeared without a trace.
"Heavenly Punishment!" Zeng Yiyang's mind suddenly flashed this ridiculous thought, at this time, his lower body was completely immersed in the water, and the soldiers around him were screaming in horror and reaching out to him, trying to pull Zeng Yiyang up the river, but then the ice around them also shattered in the sound of crumbling. Fall down the river first.
The soldiers of the Zhenliao battalion on the dense river were completely blown up in an instant, and the huge fear made them a mess, some rushed forward desperately, while others turned around and ran back, huddled together, as their movements increased, the speed of the ice breaking became faster and faster, and the people who fell down from one by one at the beginning, to the whole group now.
The soldiers of the Zhenliao Battalion, who had climbed ashore and were desperately attacking, noticed the abnormality behind them and turned back in shock, only to see that their companions were rapidly disappearing from the river, and the Tuojiang River, which had been frozen for thousands of miles, was shattering in this square garden, and the flowing water hit the ice in front of them, causing a huge splash.
Fear makes everyone freeze on the ground.
The Dingzhou army position, erupted in earth-shattering cheers, Wan Sheng, mighty, long live the roar instantly overwhelmed the sound, the numb Dingzhou soldiers in an instant, only felt full of strength, one by one jumped up from the position, waved the Wu cry in his hand, and slashed at the lost Zhenliao camp soldiers.
"God has appeared!" There was a *** roar.
This roar completely shattered the last will of the soldiers of the Zhenliao battalion, yes, if it wasn't for God's manifestation to punish them, why would Tuojiang thaw at this time, and the ice cracking was only within a few miles of their attack?
Zeng Chong, full of joy of victory, experienced the transition from heaven to hell in a short period of time, like all soldiers, he did not understand why the Tuojiang River would crack at this time, swallowing the entire Zhenliao camp, looking at less than a pillar of incense, several miles wide on the front of the attack, the Tuojiang River revealed his grandeur, the rushing river water crashed on the ice not far away, stirring up bursts of waves, his legs weakened, and he sat down on the ground.
Is it a heavenly punishment? Is this the will of God? Why choose for this time and why would you choose yourself?
On the other side, the way back was blocked, there were soldiers of the Dingzhou Army who roared and rushed to kill, and there was the rushing Tuojiang River in the back, and in despair, they threw away their weapons and fell to the ground, but they were still mercilessly cut to the ground by the rushing Dingzhou Army.
The soldiers of the Jinghai battalion went to support the Zhenliao battalion with two wings, the first wing had already descended to the river, and was swallowed by the ruthless river slag without spitting a mouthful, and the second wing was about to climb over the river embankment, and the sudden change made them retreat in horror.
Zeng poured out a mouthful of blood and vomited it, from a big victory to a big defeat, this sudden double heaven of joy and sorrow made him no longer able to bear it.
"General!" The guards on both sides woke up from the shock and helped Zeng Chong.
At this time, except for the earth-shattering cheers and shouts of killing on the opposite side, there was a deathly silence on this side of the river, and thousands of people stared blankly at the rushing river, lost their souls.
In the distance, there were bursts of shouting and killing, Zeng Chong raised his head reluctantly, on his left, a few miles away, a winding black line was rushing across the Tuojiang River, his body shook, it was Li Qing's personal guard battalion, but why, their combined cavalry could calmly cross the river, but they broke the ice here?
Li Qing's personal guard battalion! Zeng Chong suddenly reacted, jumped up like an electric shock, and roared loudly: "Formation, formation!" ”
Li Qing's personal guard battalion across the river is quickly rushing to this side, a distance of several miles, for the cavalry, it is only a few breaths of time, the frightened Jinghai battalion soldiers under the command of the officers who reacted, desperately towards the Chinese army flag that was once charged, now the Jinghai battalion, the soldiers are scattered very widely, if the cavalry rushes to the front, it is a one-sided slaughter.
