054, the heroic boy of the Han family

Between him and the enemy's four heavily armored soldiers, separated by a knife formation more than ten steps long, he wanted to use Ma Shuo to push people away, but he couldn't reach it at all, and his bow and arrow couldn't penetrate the iron armor of others.

I also tried the hook and hooked the edge of the opponent's shield with a hook, trying to lift the shield for others, and the hook was taken off when they tilted the shield slightly.

At this time, it is good to have a rolling log and a stone, and the weight is heavy enough. They can be stoned to death through an iron plate.

But war is like this, and it is always subject to various conditions.

Seeing that the other party had already pulled out four or five Mo knives, it was like pulling out Huo Yun's own teeth. When you can't be in a hurry, you have to be brave in a hurry.

Huo Yun tied one end of the rope to the arrow tower, the other end to himself, and then the brothers pulled it up—he jumped down and landed on a shield.

The heavy impact force knocked the shield-wielding heavy armor soldier to the ground, Huo Yun's eyes were quick, and he took out a sharp and thin short sword and inserted it through the gap between the eyes of his mask.

A piercing into the brain. The other party was killed instantly.

Huo Yun succeeded, and the brothers on the arrow tower immediately pulled him back.

The heavily armored hammer soldier, who had lost the protection of his shield, was immediately pounced on the head and neck by four or five "oil thunderbolts". With the experience of the previous car, he didn't dare to resist anymore, and quickly ran back to his own formation, endured the severe pain, and asked people to help take off all the heavy armor.

After the heavy armor was removed, he was also seriously injured all over his body.

The remaining group of heavy armor soldiers, Huo Yun also used the same method to get rid of them all, and finally repelled another attack from the enemy.

Without doing anything, Huo Yun used Ma Shuo to throw the "fireballs" thrown by the other party on the road, and the "torches" stuck on the wall, all of which were gathered together and piled up in front of the knife formation, forming a fire path five or six steps long, even heavy armor soldiers did not dare to step on it easily.

Huo Yun also recovered the opponent's three heavy armors and two heavy shields by the way, and equipped them with the three soldiers in the gorge below.

Although it is only equipped with three heavy armor soldiers, occupying favorable terrain has already improved its blocking ability considerably.

These three heavily armored soldiers can not only meet the enemy on horseback, but also serve as humanoid shields for the brothers in the rear. Offensive and defensive.

The two heavy shields, tied with ropes, were controlled by soldiers in the air turrets, hung up, and used to smash people.

The flames on the ground burned for nearly half an hour before they were extinguished. During this time, a small group of soldiers was sent to the city of Talas, and new supplies such as dry rations, water, arrows, oil, and linen were brought in.

Some scouts reported the news of Huo Yun's successful blocking of the enemy's light cavalry to Talas City, and everyone was overjoyed and praised Huo Yun for his courage and resourcefulness. However, if you want to completely annihilate the enemy with outnumbered enemies, you must have enough arrows, fire, oil, etc.

If Huo Yun could still block the enemy soldiers of the Wolf Tooth Sword Dao for another two hours, he would be able to change his tactics.

In the first hour, wait for work and destroy as many enemies as possible in the defense.

In the second hour, you can send an elite force, 5,000 people, or 10,000 people, to take the initiative to attack, attack and defend, and destroy the enemy's living forces.

If we can annihilate most of the enemy's 35,000 men and horses in these two hours, there is hope of winning this defensive battle.

Huo Shouguang's long-lost blood and enthusiasm in his heart were ignited, and he became more and more active in facing this battle.

However, there is no permanent law, and can everything really develop as he hopes?

Wolf Tooth Sword Dao, Huo Yun and his two thousand dead soldiers have held out for more than two hours.

The Dashi Army sent three groups of heavy armor soldiers to smash the sword formation, but they were all smashed back by Huo Yun with the captured heavy shields, and two new heavy armor and three heavy shields were captured. Still distributed according to the previous scheme, the heavy shield was hoisted with ropes and hung over the gorge to smash people.

Huo Yun tasted the sweetness, and transported the spare horses and shields to the brothers, and re-strengthened the arrow towers, and more than 20 aerial arrow towers in the gorge were condescending and sturdy, becoming the most lethal hidden fortress.

Because it is an arrow tower made of shields, the surface is covered with copper skin, and the arrows cannot be shot through, even if the rockets are fired, it is difficult to hurt people.

After fighting for more than two hours, he shot and killed at least 1,000 people on the other side, and injured even more.

Ten people died on his side, and more than twenty were injured. Greatly earned.

There is less than an hour before midnight, and if you continue at this pace, you won't want to break through Tang Bing's defense line tomorrow morning.

The enemy's commander became furious, and two heavily armored soldiers rushed to the front of the formation, and just turned around and ran back after Huo Yun threw an "oil thunderbolt".

The commander directly stripped the person out of the heavy armor and cut off the head.

So someone proposed a plan to dismantle the ladder for the siege of the city, convert it into a stone thrower, and attack the arrow tower of the Tang soldiers with stones and fireballs from a distance.

They were in a hurry, and could not carry all the equipment that might be useful, even the so-called "ladders", or ordinary ladders, but they were longer, and three ladders could be connected together to climb the top of the city of Talas.

When the chubby commander heard this, he was furious, and he threw his whip in the face of the man who offered the plan, and after a few strokes, the man did not even dare to hide, and he pulled his skin and flesh.

gave someone a smoking, and the anger subsided, and I also pondered it.

The chubby commander twisted a soybean-sized sarcoma on his nose, rolled his eyes, and had to admit that the man's plan was also a feasible solution.

Moreover, after midnight, the large army can rush to the city of Talas, and it will not have much effect if you don't have these ladders.

They dismantled seven or eight ladders, re-tied them and assembled them into improvised catapults, which were joined together as ropes to manipulate the rocker arms. A total of three were made.

Because of the transformation of the ladder, the wood itself was drilled and nailed, the toughness and bearing capacity were greatly reduced, and the weight and distance of the projectile stone were greatly limited, which was the size of a palm, a distance of about 100 steps.

Even so, large stones fell from the sky and smashed on the already suspended arrow tower, which was still much more powerful than the destructive power of bows and arrows.

Every stone that falls down can smash the entire arrow tower violently, and it will fall apart at any time.

Fortunately, the opponent's stone throwers were all set up at about 100 paces, and they were within the range of Tang Bing's bow and crossbow.

The two sides entered a fierce long-range battle of mutual fire.

However, in terms of casualties, there are still many on the Dashi's side. The big stone soldiers who protect the trebuchet stand can still block the arrows with their shields.

The soldiers who pulled the ropes and manipulated the rocker arms were not so lucky, they moved so far that more than half of their bodies were exposed, even though their companions held shields in front of them.

What's more, Tang Bing is condescending again.

Therefore, it often takes several people to die before a stone can be thrown, and it may not be able to accurately hit the arrow tower.

The sky was dark, and they could only roughly infer the location of the Tang Soldier's Arrow Tower based on the fireballs on the ground and the torches on the rock wall - anyway, that place was very narrow, even if it was smashed on the rock wall, it could be lucky to hit the arrow tower when it bounced off, but the power was much smaller.

The big stone soldier tried to move the stone thrower back, and it was not ideal to adjust the position several times, and the Tang soldier arrow tower was in mid-air, not only to throw it far, but also to throw it high. They could only face Tang Bing's flying arrows and manipulate the stone thrower.

In just half an hour, they had all pulled up the stones that could be used nearby, so they had no choice but to smash the rocks and smash them into usable pieces, and the speed slowed down a lot.

Huo Yun glanced at the sparse stars in the sky, it was already approaching, as long as he dragged them for another two or three hours, he could help Talas City block the strength of 10,000 people, and it would be better if he could annihilate the other party as soon as possible.

Thinking of this, Huo Yun's young face, which had already experienced the baptism of wind and frost and war, squeezed out a smile.

"My sons and daughters of the Tang Dynasty, all of them are heroes, cheer up, aim at me, and send me all these eight sons to their grandmother's house. ”

Huo Yun agitated, and the Tang Dynasty sons shouted and echoed one by one, and the earth-shattering shouts of killing were surging in the valley.

Bloody and courageous, urging people to forge ahead, the soldiers' bow-drawn arms are more stable, and their aim is more accurate.

- Yes, in order to manipulate the stone thrower, the other party lit torches around it, providing a good light for the Tang soldiers.

In this battle, the Tang soldiers lost two arrow towers and shot more than 2,000 Dashi soldiers.

Huo Yun roughly estimated that there were still more than 6,000 people left in this light cavalry, and taking advantage of the other party's efforts to make stones, he asked people to strengthen the arrow tower again, as long as they continued to hold on.

Victory belongs to Datang.

In the blink of an eye, it is already Zizheng. Huo Yun calculated, the enemy army of Broken Leaf Dachuan should also reach the Talas Plain, right?

They must still want to rush to the city of Talas as soon as possible, immediately enter the battle, cooperate with their vanguard troops, and inflict heavy losses on the Tang soldiers, right?

Hahahaha, this group of bastard kings and eight lambs, rushed over to take a look, there was no one of their own, all of them were Tang soldiers who were in high spirits and waiting for them to die, and they were not allowed to be angry to death? Hahahaha.

What's going on?

More than a dozen rockets shot into the sky from the Big Stone camp.

It's the signal. What are they going to do? Who are they going to report to?

Oops. Huo Yun immediately understood. These big stone people are contacting the accomplices who came over from the Broken Leaf Ogawa.

Judging by the speed of the enemy's march, they should indeed enter the plains of Talas.

The effort was not great, and the same rocket was lifted off in the southwestern position, responding to the previous signal.

"Steady—steady—"

Huo Yun shouted. At the same time, the command of the Wolf Tooth Sword Dao was handed over to a captain named Luo Dasheng. He himself got off the arrow tower and retreated to the back troops, organizing resistance to the enemy's large forces.

"Quick, quick, quickly build fortifications, enemy reinforcements are coming. ”

"Ma Shuo, Ma Shuo, plug Ma Shuo upside down and make it into a horse rejection formation—quick—"

Huo Yun took the lead, drew a half-moon-shaped arc around the valley mouth of the Wolf Tooth Sword Dao, and slanted the horses outward, inserting them into the ground upside down, nearly two feet into the ground.

Ma Shuo can be understood as a kind of cavalry spear, that is, it is much longer than the ordinary spear shaft for cavalry use.

Huo Yun had used this formation before, and many people had experience in operation, and the sons and daughters of the Han family threw off their arms and worked for more than a quarter of an hour, making three Ma Shuo defense lines.

In order to deal with the enemy's reinforcements and hold the position, it is necessary to shoot the enemy from a distance with bows and arrows and control the periphery.

The enemy's reinforcements must be far more than their own, and in hand-to-hand combat, they will be wiped out by the other party in the blink of an eye.

Countless torches, accompanied by the sound of horses' hooves roaring and trampling, pressed down from the southwest.
