Chapter 147: Fierce Battle Mountain Pass

As soon as the war drums sounded, the two battalions of the infantry division immediately pushed the bed crossbow slowly, and threatened the direction of the mountain pass step by step, and three hundred steps away, the bed crossbow was placed and handed over to the soldiers of the first battalion of the Holy Protector Army for protection, and then their two battalions marched towards the mountain pass again under the leadership of the officers.

Bed crossbow is a high-end product for these Li Quanjun, when they fight against the Jin army, they rarely see such heavy weapons, under normal circumstances, the Jin soldiers also use some artillery, but for the manufacture of bed crossbows, the Jin army uses a small range, so they have rarely seen this thing before, but it doesn't mean that they don't know this thing, when the bed crossbows equipped with wheels are erected, Liu Bao's scalp is numb, in his opinion, this Song army is determined to break through the mountain pass, Even the heavy weapons that were usually used for defense were pushed out, so he did not dare to slack off, and immediately drew troops and horses from the sides of the two wings of the mountain to enrich the front, in order to block the attack of the Song army with a numerical advantage.

As a result, Li Quan's army, which was stationed in the mountain pass, immediately began to be chaotic, and groups of soldiers and horses began to gather in the central position, forming a thick defense, and a series of improvised wooden standing signs were also carried to the front of the mountain pass to block the Song army's flying feather arrows.

Gao Huaiyuan sat on the horse, holding his telescope and quietly watching the movements of the rebels, the corners of his mouth began to show a slight smile, the rebels are dirt buns, as soon as they saw the bed crossbow, they were in chaos, which was in his arms, and the rebel forces on the two wings were immediately drawn by the enemy generals to be much thinner, and then it depends on the performance of the infantry division, as long as they can give the rebels enough pressure, then they will not worry about the breakthrough of their two wings.

The loading of the bed crossbow is not simple, it takes several people to pull the winch to wind, but at the same time, it also provides a huge kinetic energy for the bed crossbow, with the squeaky winch turning, the huge bow arm of these bed crossbows is slowly opened, with a crunch sound, the thumb-thick bowstring is hung on the bracket, and some soldiers carry heavy hammer arrows, and the arrows are placed in the arrow slot of the bed crossbow, and the tail hook is also hung on the bowstring.

Liu Bao and other rebel leaders on the mountain could only watch the Song army complete the loading of the bed crossbow at the bottom of the mountain, each of them had a feeling of fear, but there was no way to take these bed crossbows below, the distance of three hundred steps was the range of the bed crossbow, but it far exceeded the range of all the bows and crossbows in the hands of the rebels, even if they were condescending, they could not reach these bed crossbows, they could only roll their eyes to watch these Song army operations.

Some of the leaders shouted loudly in the queue for arrows, and their soldiers began to get nervous at this time, and one by one they crouched down, shouldered their shoulders on their large shields, and their spears were flattened, and stretched out through the gaps in their shields.

"Put!" As the shouts of a Song general fell, the soldiers who operated the bed crossbow picked up the mallets and struck them heavily on the bracket of the bed crossbow, so several bed crossbows immediately made a dull sound, and the giant arrows with the thickness of the arms immediately swung towards the rebels hundreds of steps away like a death scythe.

A heavy hammer arrow lightning flew through the open space between the two armies, and smashed heavily on the first wooden shield of the rebels, and suddenly the wooden shield was hit by the hammer arrow, turned into a piece of debris, and flew out upside down together with the soldiers hiding behind the wooden shield, so under such a huge force, it can be said that it is not the power that human beings can block at all, and the middle has no chance of survival at all.

And although these flying hammer arrows hit the wooden shield or the deer in the front row, but they were castrated, continued to fly forward, lost the stable arrow shaft, swept through the ranks of the rebels, as long as they were hung, no one could please them, after a hammer arrow rushed into the crowd, when even if they swept down more than a dozen rebel soldiers, all of them broke their tendons and fractures, even if they did not die, they were seriously injured, and it was very difficult to get up again.

Seeing that the bed crossbow actually had such a terrible power, for the rebels, even if the morale was severely setback, the soldiers in front of the line were all frightened, and they couldn't help but want to retreat, this thing is really not something that people can deserve, and if it goes on like this, it is simply providing a live target for the Song army, and the rebels in the mountain pass immediately had a commotion.

"Steady! Queue me up! No one is allowed to retreat! Liu Bao immediately shouted and ordered.

Amid the shouts and threats of their leaders, the soldiers had to stabilize again and hold up the scattered wooden shields.

But at this time, a battalion of the Song army under the mountain pass also began to line up, this crossbow battalion, is an elite soldier under the infantry division Fang Shuda, from the name of the army, you know, this battalion is a heavy crossbow as a weapon of the troops, rows of crossbows of the Song army, holding the heavy crossbow in their hands, step by step towards the mountain pass, and stopped two hundred steps away, and in the order of the officer in the army, together dragged up the heavy crossbow in their hands, they just started when they finished winding, at this time they raised the crossbow, the crossbow arrows that flashed with cold light pointed at the rebels in the mountain pass.

With the second round of bed crossbows fired, the front row of the rebels was swept down by the giant arrows of the bed crossbow, and then the knife axe men and archers behind them were revealed.

More than 1,000 crossbowmen pulled down the machine together, and the crossbow arrows were swayed towards the mountain pass rebels like flying locusts, and the rebels' shield array at this time had just been broken by the bed crossbow, and they accepted the baptism of this rain of arrows, when even many rebel soldiers fell to the ground with arrows.

"Brother Liu! You can't just wait to be beaten! If they fight like this for a day, I'm afraid we'll all be killed by them, so let's rush down! We are not afraid of them in close combat, if we continue to fight like this, we will suffer too much! One of Liu Bao's subordinates rushed behind him and shouted.

Liu Bao is also a little numb, he has seen any way of playing, but like today's style of play, he is really the first time to encounter, although they are in a defensive state, but their bows and crossbows can not effectively kill and injure the enemy, but stand in the mountain pass and watch the enemy shoot them with arrows, now he only has two choices, one is to listen to the assault of his subordinates, and the Song army to fight in close quarters, break their crossbow formation, the other is to immediately abandon the mountain pass, retreat to the top, and continue to defend condescendingly.

But this time Liu Bao didn't choose to shrink back, and after hesitating for a moment, he nodded and agreed: "Done!" Take your five hundred brethren and go down to assault, be sure to break up the enemy's crossbow array, and then withdraw as soon as possible! ”

After receiving the order, the leader immediately rushed down and ordered the soldiers and horses, and after shouting, the rebels in the mountain pass immediately flashed a road, and the leader led five hundred soldiers to rush down with a shocking sound.

As soon as the crossbowmen saw the enemy attacking, they immediately flattened the crossbows, and then fired arrows at the oncoming enemy troops, and a row of crossbow arrows was fired, and the rebels who immediately rushed to the front were shot over the mountain pass, but at this time the rebels also knew that more crossbow arrows would come when they stopped, so they did not look at the brothers on the ground at all, and the people behind continued to wave the weapons in their hands and rushed towards the array of the crossbow warrior camp.

"Brothers of the Left Tiger Wing, it's time for us to go! Crash into them and kill them all! The officers of the Left Tiger Wing Battalion, who were lined up on the side of the Crossbow Warrior Battalion, immediately drew their waist swords and shouted.

When the Song army of the Left Tiger Wing Battalion heard this, they immediately strode forward, pointed their spearhead at the rebel army that rushed down, and blocked the front of the queue of the crossbow male battalion, and rushed towards the mountain pass.

As the two armies slammed together, the Song army of the Left Tiger Wing Battalion fought with the rebels, the rebels were really brave, and as soon as the two armies met each other, they had the upper hand, and the original neat formation of the Left Tiger Wing was immediately chaotic, and the soldiers on both sides caught each other and fought each other.

For a time, the bottom of the mountain pass became a battlefield, the two armies were inseparable, blood sprayed out in the air from time to time, like rain fell on the bodies of the living, stumps and broken arms also flew up from time to time, and the wounded who fell to the ground let out a terrible scream helplessly.

Cold weapon combat is like this, you have to face your enemy, either you kill the opponent or be slashed by the opponent, just engagement, the situation outside the mountain pass is incandescent battle.

Zuo Huyi is an elite in the infantry division, although they are also pampered, but after all, the number of people far exceeds the number of rebels killed, after a fierce battle of incense, in the end to prevent the rebels from breaking through them, into the crossbow male battalion formation, and after the initial panic, the soldiers began to organize a little more effective cooperation, one by one the rebels who rushed into their crowd to slash at the mountain pass, and under the command of their generals, step by step began to force towards the mountain pass.

At this time, the bed crossbow and crossbow male battalion of the Song army in Yamaguchi were not idle, and they cooperated with each other to continue to fire arrows at the rebels in Yamaguchi, causing more casualties to the rebels.

Sometimes although the morale of both sides of the battlefield is very important, but the quality of weapons is also related to the victory or defeat of the war, the Song army occupies the advantage of numbers at this time, plus the advantage of weapons, but not too scared of these rebels, so the morale is not lost to the rebels, as soon as the war starts, it is quite decent, compared to the first battle of the Guardian Army yesterday, the two battalions of soldiers on the side of the infantry division also fought well.

This caused a lot of pressure on these Li Quanjun, and Liu Bao began to fully believe at this time that the Song army was indeed going to break through the mountain pass from the central position, so he once again put the reserves behind it into the mountain pass to strengthen the defensive thickness of the mountain pass.

And Gao Huaiyuan put down the monocular in his hand at this time, handed it over to Li Ruohu for safekeeping, pulled out the scimitar at his waist, raised the knife into the air and shouted: "Sons and daughters of the Holy Protector, today is the time for you to make meritorious contributions, and you will rush with this official!" ”
