Although the mountain range is easy to defend and difficult to attack, the entire hillside can be crawled, and it seems that for the Jin army, it is more conducive to deploying troops.

Han Shouzhong held the binoculars and observed the Jin army under the ridge, with a sneer on his face.

Trenches, breastwork, plum blossom piles, deer barricades, iron thorn quinoa...... The complete fortifications made Han Shouzhong full of confidence, unless the soldiers collapsed without a fight, otherwise, if the Jin army wanted to attack, they would use the corpses to assist the road!

"Woo, woo, woo-" With the long horn, the observation post gave the signal, and the Jin army began to attack again.

The troops led by Wanyan Bode are not elite, but they have been trained in battle. It can be seen from the movements, many people are agile and swift, holding shields, broadswords and spears, shouting and charging upwards.

Crossbow arrows shoot each other, although the Jin army is low to attack high, but many archers' skills are better than the Red Turban Army, the quality of the bow and arrow is also good, if it is not squatting down there are covers, breastworks and shields to cover, the casualties of the Red Turban Army are much higher than now.

Both sides paid for the casualties, but the Jin army continued to charge upward, getting closer and closer, and the shouts became louder and louder.

The drums sounded, and the defenders tore down the logs and stones, which tumbled and bounced down the mountain, causing far more damage and confusion to the Jin army than crossbow arrows. This is the advantage of relying on danger defense, as long as the soldier has a little strength, throwing stones can also cause problems for the attacking enemy.

The experienced Jin soldiers continued to rush upwards one after another, braving arrows and rolling logs and rocks. Hundreds of people actually have a momentum of victory.

"Woo-woo-woo-" The horn sounded.

"Boom! Rumble! Rumble! "Stone bullets kept falling on the heads of the Jin army, and they fell into the air, smashing on the hillside, stirring up gravel and soil. The trebuchet was the first to launch behind the trench and fiercely returned fire on the Jin army.

The screams and wails rang out in one piece, and from time to time rolling logs and rocks rolled down the ridge with dirt and grass clippings, knocking the golden soldiers away like dolls. The momentum of the Jin army's attack was frustrated, and the shouts weakened.

A Jin Army officer howled loudly and commanded, he was agile and agile, dodged two rolling logs in a row, and gathered dozens of elites around him, and continued to rush upward.

With the desolate horn, the defensive fire on the position suddenly intensified. The earthen cannon with the iron hoop and wooden heart was ready to be fired, and although the range of the pine cannon was only thirty or forty meters, it was now the distance that the Jin army had already impacted.

Flames erupted, shooting hundreds of gravel and rotten iron at the Jin army, accompanied by one after another exclamations and screams, the Jin army rushing in front suffered heavy casualties, and the momentum of the impact was stopped before the last obstacle.

The lethality of the earthen cannon at close range is still very large, although the reloading speed is relatively slow, but depending on the number, it can be fired in turns.

"Boom, boom, boom......" Clouds of white mist rose up, and shrapnel with the breath of death shot intensively towards the Jin army.

At a distance of less than forty meters, the face of the earthen cannon was able to exert its power, and the shrapnel that flew out quickly turned the armor of the Jin army into an ornament, mercilessly shooting into the flesh, causing great damage.

Wanyan Bode's eyes were almost red at the bottom of the mountain, the frontal charge was about to collapse, and the enemy's firepower echelon configuration was very fierce. The enemy was too insidious and did not fire all at the maximum range, just to make the Jin army, which was inconvenient to retreat up the hill, pay more casualties.

The bombardment of the earth cannons, the stone projectiles of the stone throwers, and the shooting of bows and crossbows slowly stopped, and the smoke was quickly dispersed by the wind, presenting a miserable scene in front of them.

Wanyan Lin - Wanyan Bode's eyes were sour, and he couldn't find the fierce generals under him, obviously he was more than lucky. And the wounded on the hillside are also difficult to get back.

Mingjin withdrew his troops, and Wanyan Bird gave the order helplessly and heartbrokenly.

In the face of the defeated Jin soldiers, the drums and trumpets of the attack sounded on the ridge, and the Red Turban Army, under the command of their respective generals, jumped out of the trenches and killed the remnants of the enemy on the hillside.

The Jin army was nothing more than that, Han Shouzhong looked at the soldiers who killed the wounded soldiers and stripped them of their armor on the battlefield, and a smile appeared on his face. Most of the defenders were generals who had fought in the east and west, and Meng Jiucheng's thoughts, Han Shouzhong naturally understood, was to achieve a defensive victory, which not only dealt a blow to the enemy's arrogance, but also increased the confidence and courage of the Red Turban Army.

Regardless of whether it is a battle or surrender in the end, the rampant attack on Wanyan Bird can only be a brave counterattack. If it's a war, naturally there is no need to say more; If you want to fall, defeating Yan Bode is also raising his own value and accumulating bargaining capital, rather than groveling and despising people.

Obviously, Wanyan Bode really didn't look down on the Red Turban Army, and rushed to attack the defeated Guo San, which seemed to give him arrogant capital, and he still wanted to break it with one drum and make war exploits. Therefore, he accepted the money sent by Meng Jiucheng, but put forward harsh conditions. When he was rejected, he led his troops to attack.

"Report to the general, the Jin army has suffered a heavy setback, and there are casualties-" Han Shouzhong listened to the officer's estimate, hesitated for a moment, and continued to dictate the order, "The casualties are being counted, and the preliminary estimate is not less than two hundred." How our army will act, please give the general an order. ”

After sending out the signal corps, Han Shouzhong gathered officers to re-strengthen the fortifications in case the enemy attacked again.

Judging from the current weapons and equipment of the Red Turban Army, the defense is stronger than the field battle, and Han Shouzhong and other officers all judge in this way. And the training, actual combat, and growth of the soldiers also give them quite strong confidence.

"You're afraid of death!" "Being a soldier is not afraid of death, and being afraid of death is not a soldier."

According to the rules of the Red Turban Army, the chief officer had to yell at his soldiers every day; And the soldier has to answer loudly without hesitation. This is a psychological suggestion that is constantly deepening and reinforcing, and at the same time it is the most basic and reasonable requirement. To be a soldier is to fight, that is, you may be injured or sacrificed, and if you don't have such psychological preparation, is you still a qualified soldier?

Rations and salaries are fully guaranteed, and all kinds of benefits are both abundant and generous, so that the soldiers can feel free to worry about the future as much as possible. Meng Jiucheng has done everything he should have done, and he has given everything he should give, and you have chosen this profession to glorify your ancestors, get promoted and make a fortune, or support your family, then you must have the consciousness of being conscientious.

To tell the truth, there is no one who is not afraid of death, but those who can not be cowardly in the face of death and can face it bravely are the real warriors.

I dare not say that there are no cowards in the Red Turban Army, but this is the case when fighting as a whole, the robes and comrades around you can bring you courage and make you strong. If it's an escape, it's a different matter, it's just a race between individuals, and you can't care about others.

And running away tends to die faster than insisting, it's just that under pressure, not everyone thinks so.

In order to ensure that the soldiers can work hard and dare to work hard, Meng Jiucheng not only has severe punishment methods in military regulations, but also links it to the preferential treatment of soldiers' families, which is somewhat of a sitting.
