Chapter 27: The Great War (6)
Su Muyan saw that the rout was getting fewer and fewer, and the buffer zone between him and Gongsun Zhan's cavalry was about to disappear, and there was a kind of determination in his eyes.
Su Muyan commanded his heralds, asked him to unfurl the flag, and told his subordinates that except for the two groups of shield soldiers and pikemen in the front row, all the archers were wound with their bows and waiting for his gesture.
In ancient times, before archers shoot arrows, a soldier will first send an arrow to calculate the distance of the arrow, as long as it reaches the range that can be attacked, the bow and arrow can most effectively kill the enemy.
He looked at the soldiers killed by Gongsun Zhan's cavalry with cold eyes, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart, turned his head to Chile, the leader of the guards beside him, and said solemnly: "Chile, I have given you a difficult task, now you immediately have a team of guards up that hillside to cut down trees and arrange rolling logs, wait for my order, as long as I give an order, immediately push down the rolling logs." ”
Seeing that Chile was ordered to leave, Su Fuyan thought for a moment, and after pulling Chile by the hand, he whispered to Chiler: "After these rolling logs are pushed down, you don't have to come back here." ”
Chile is the captain of Su Fuyan's bodyguard, and he is the brother who was born and died with Su Fuyan.
If it weren't for Chile, Su Muyan would have been killed by the Han army many years ago, and Su Fuyan has always regarded Chile as a sibling.
Su Fuyan decided to die in battle, and he wanted to leave a little hope.
If Chile can listen to him and not come back, the possibility of escaping Gongsun Zhan's pursuit is quite high, and it can also be said that he will definitely be able to escape, as long as Chile is alive, then his wife and children will not be embarrassed in life in the future.
Su Muyan didn't have much hope now that Qiu Liju and Zhang Chun could escape Gongsun Zhan's pursuit, and whether they could meet reinforcements before Gongsun Chan caught up with them, he felt that he should leave a little behind.
The place where Su Fuyan had instructed Chile to lay out the rolling logs was the only steep place he saw on this slope.
It's just that Su Muyan didn't think about arranging rolling logs in this place before, because the steep place was opposite the rear army of Zhang Pinghan's army, and it was also the place where they were facing each other.
If it's really time to attack with a rolling log, it means that Zhang Ping and him can't resist it.
When the logs fell, they could not control the direction and speed, and their people on the slope and Zhang Ping's men would suffer countless casualties.
Su Fuyan even thought that Rolling Wood would not consider friendly troops or his own people at that time, his own people should no longer be good, and it was better to be stoned to death by a giant tree than to die under the sword and gun of Gongsun Zhan.
And those damned Han soldiers should stay on the battlefield forever.
In the heart of Lord Su Muyan, the Han and Wuhuan people will never be people of the same race, and they will never be able to pee together, and now the Han people are strong, and in a few years, this world will be the world of the Wuhuan people.
Whether it was Su Muyan or Lord Wuyan, they all had such a strong desire. Originally, they had been hostile to the Han people, if it weren't for the defeat of Wuhuan Dadanyu by the Han army, they would not have surrendered to the Han Dynasty and lived on the side of the Han Dynasty for so many years.
In Su Muyan's heart, those so-called friendly soldiers deserve to die even more, if it weren't for those damned friendly troops, just their Wuhuan people, they would definitely not fall to such a point today.
"Shoot the arrows."
"Shoot the arrows."
Gongsun Zhan's vanguard officer, Gongsun Yue, and Lord Su Fuyan almost shouted out together, and without the barrier of the rout, the people on both sides of them had quickly come into contact.
The timing of the test firing between their soldiers was almost the same, so the timing of their firing at each other was about the same.
At this time, Gongsun Yue saw very clearly that he had to rely on the cavalry under his command to eliminate the archers arranged by Su Muyan on the slope as quickly as possible.
After clearing the threat from above, his cavalry was able to charge Zhang Ping's team more powerfully.
When fighting, it must be flexible, and it must be in line with the mobility and flexibility of the cavalry.
Now the biggest threat is not the infantry waiting on the road, but the threat of Su Muyan's bow and arrow on the slope, as long as the two or three hundred people on the slope are eliminated, those infantry on the road are not afraid.
Doing so will slow you down a bit, but you'll be able to preserve your strength.
People on both sides began to be ruthless at this time, and they both knew in their hearts that at this time, they must not have any mercy.
The vanguard cavalry led by Gongsun Yue has solid basic skills in cavalry and archery, and at this time, the number of forwards led by Gongsun Yue is far more than the number of troops led by Lord Su Muyan, and the armor is even stronger than the soldiers led by Su Muyan.
Although Su Muyan had the support of Zhang Ping's infantry with bows and arrows, the number of archers waiting on the slope was still decreasing frantically.
Su Fuyan looked at the bow and arrows like rain, and while he asked his own soldiers to raise their shields again, he shouted hysterically: "Everyone listen to me, shoot me hard, even if our Wuhuan men die, we can't let those damned Han soldiers look down on us." Shoot one is enough, shoot two and we'll earn one, shoot me hard. For the glory of Wuhuan......"
Su Muyan knew best in his heart at this time, even if all these soldiers led by him were killed, it was nothing more than giving Qiu Liju and Zhang Chun the last chance to breathe.
But what! He and these Wuhuan warriors under his command can be regarded as a well-deserved death, at least they can fight out some of Gongsun Zhan's cavalry, and make that damn guy feel pain.
The bows and arrows on both sides continued to fall, constantly taking away fresh lives, and the guards around Su Muyan had changed batch after batch.
Rao is like this, Su Muyan has also been shot with two bows and arrows on his body, but the strength of these two bows and arrows is not large, and they did not hit Su Muyan's vital parts.
After Gongsun Chan killed Lord Wuyan, he and Yan Gang and other generals quickly fought horses, and gradually approached the location of Gongsun Yue's vanguard army.
Standing on the second highest point, Gongsun Zhan looked at the few Wuhuan soldiers on the hillside, and then swept the Zhang Ping team that was waiting for him, his eyes revealed a trace of ruthlessness, and he waved his hand to make a seemingly cruel decision.
Assault, not as good as attrition.
Gongsun Zan knew in his heart that the defense line formed by Su Fuyan and Zhang Ping was already the last line of defense for Qiu Liju and Zhang Chun.
As long as they can quickly break through the defense line they formed, the road ahead will definitely be smooth.
The morale of Qiu Liju and Zhang Chun's soldiers had dropped to the extreme, and Gongsun Chan was convinced that as long as he could launch a strong attack, it would not take long for Qiu Liju and Zhang Chun's soldiers to collapse.
Now is the most critical moment, there is only one last step away from winning the final victory, if you think too much about the gains and losses, then, Qiu Liju and Zhang Chun will not be able to catch it.
Although his younger brother Gongsun Yue can be a general who stands alone, his heart is still not ruthless enough, and his sense of the overall situation is not strong.
Under normal circumstances, Gongsun Yue should have ordered a strong attack sooner or later.
This kind of war of attrition will even lose more people than the strong attack in the end, and the only way to defeat the rebels is to kill and collapse the rebels in one go.
Gongsun Chan was ruthless, and the cavalry under his command began to play with their lives.
Countless white-armored cavalry launched a fierce attack on Zhang Ping's infantry defense line and the slope of Su Muyan like a tide......
