Chapter 405: Fighting, Fierce Fighting

The formation of the Dingping Army at this moment is very similar to the formation of the Yellow Turban Army before, in fact, there is an essential difference, the formation of the Yellow Turban Army that relies on the shield wall is completely a defensive formation, in other words, the formation of the Dingping Army will not move in general, it can only be passively defensive, and the formation of the Dingping Army is an attack formation, its essence is to attack, relying on the shield to make the attack more sharp.

"Kill!"

The soldiers of the Dingping Army shouted in unison, and the tower shield hand suddenly exerted force together, pushing the Yellow Turban Army soldiers in front of them to the outside to take a step back, and almost at the same time, the spearmen of the Dingping Army quickly stabbed, and the knife hand cut out from the bottom plate, and the Yellow Turban Army soldiers fell down in pieces like harvested wheat when they boarded.

Although the counterattack of the Dingping Army was sharp, the speed of operation seemed to be a little slow, after all, there were too few of them, if the elite of the Dingping Army used such tactics, such as Huang Zhong's battalion, at this moment, these thousands of Yellow Turban soldiers were afraid that they had been forced into deep water.

These soldiers of the Yellow Turban Army, who were the vanguard, also showed great bravery, they roared and rushed forward to kill, one after another, but each time the result was heavy casualties, and their death made the battle formation of the Dingping Army even more terrifying.

The Dingping Army continued to push forward the activity space of the Yellow Turban Army, constantly harvesting the lives of the Yellow Turban Army soldiers, the color of the river became more and more vivid, the corpses were pressed one by one, and the Dingping Army shouted, the voice became louder and louder, and the momentum became higher and higher.

Peng Tuo frowned, revealing obvious shock.

"Give the order immediately, and the ballista by the river will immediately shoot at the opposite bank!"

Peng Tuo ordered categorically.

Hearing that the ballista was about to be used, Du Xiang couldn't help but have a shocked expression on his face, then turned his head to look around, and finally locked his eyes on the shore.

Looking at the neatly arranged big guys, at this moment, the corners of Du Xiang's mouth rose, revealing a bloodthirsty smile.

Ballista, crossbow bed and machine crossbow are actually war tools that have existed for a long time in ancient times, but at this time the Yellow Turban military ballista is not the kind of ancient ballista, although the old-fashioned ballista is powerful, but it is too cumbersome, and the operation is cumbersome, a ballista often takes five or six people to operate, the loading time is too long, and the cost is very expensive, so the Yellow Turban Army almost does not use to defend the city, but now the ballista they push out is Du Xiang pointed out the modification, although the power is small, but the operation is simple, and the loading time is greatly shortened, A ballista can be operated by only two people.

At the beginning, after Du Xiang put forward various modification suggestions, the craftsmen of the Yellow Turban Army tried to make it for a long time and did not make it, because they could not solve some technical problems, Du Xiang once thought that the ballista he imagined could not be made, but now the ballista has been pushed to the position of the first line, which is why Du Xiang was shocked when he heard it.

Peng Tuo's words shocked the generals around him, and a Yellow Turban Army Qu Fang hurriedly said: "Qu Shuai, this will affect our people!" ”

"Hey~" Peng Tuo showed helplessness on his face and said in a sad tone: "They can't come back!" ”

When the words fell, Peng Tuo's expression immediately turned cold. He whispered, "Execute the order immediately!" You can't let the brothers bleed in vain! ”

"No!"

The herald on the side hurriedly agreed, and then ordered the standard-bearer to give the order.

Yang Kai watched the battlefield intently, his fists clenched tightly, and his face showed excitement.

At this moment, a platoon commander suddenly shouted: "General, the Yellow Turban Army has pushed out the crossbow!" ”

Yang Kai was startled, and hurriedly looked towards the opposite bank, only to see that nearly a hundred crossbows were being pushed towards the river.

"Not good!"

Yang Kai couldn't help but exclaim, and at the same time immediately returned his gaze to the battlefield, at this moment, although the Dingping Army had an obvious advantage, it was still in a state of stalemate on the whole, Yang Kai frowned, and he didn't know what to do for a while.

Nearly 100 driving crossbows were pushed down to the bank of the river, and the angle was adjusted, and then hundreds of elite soldiers of the main force of the Yellow Turban Army shouted the trumpet and turned the trigger winch, and the huge bowstring slowly opened in a squeak.

Immediately the bowstrings were fastened, and the huge and terrifying guns and arrows of the soldiers were loaded onto the ballista carts, and nearly a hundred ballistas with arrows on the strings held their heads high, just like the ready-to-go artillery groups of the future.

"Launch!"

A Yellow Turban officer shouted at the top of his voice, and with a loud vibration, hundreds of guns and arrows flew towards the opposite shore with a terrible whistling sound.

The Dingping army is trying its best to counterattack, although the enemy's beach-grabbing troops have been defeated and retreated, but the most critical tower shield soldiers are already out of breath and exhausted, the tower shield is nearly two meters high, and the weight is as heavy as a pair of heavy armor.

Seeing that the second wave of the Yellow Turban Army's beach-grabbing troops was about to retreat, suddenly, a terrible whistling sound reached everyone's ears, and some soldiers of the Dingping Army followed the reputation, and their faces changed dramatically.

Nearly 100 huge guns and arrows smashed into the crowd of people on both sides, and the scene suddenly became chaotic, some people were stopped by guns and arrows, and immediately broke into two, and the two bodies flew up because of the impact of the guns and arrows, blood and internal organs flew in the air, and some heads were shot off, and blood gushed out.

"Peng~"

A spear and arrow slammed on the tower shield, several tower shields shattered into several pieces, the tower shield hand was hit by a strong impact and flew out, blood spurted from the mouth and nose, and then a spear and arrow penetrated the tower shield, and then came out of the body of the tower shield soldier, and then chiseled through the Dingping army array, along the way more than a dozen Dingping soldiers splashed blood on the spot.

After this round of gunfire and arrow storm stopped, there were hundreds of more corpses on the scene, and the formation of the Dingping Army had been completely destroyed, and the losses on both sides were very heavy, and the soldiers on both sides were a little stunned.

Peng Tuo's eyes lit up, and he shouted: "Beat the war drums!" ”

The rapid sound of war drums sounded loudly, and the soldiers of the Yellow Turban Army, who were in a daze, came back to their senses, and an officer raised his ring head knife and shouted: "Rush! Rush up! ”

More than 1,000 officers and soldiers of the Yellow Turban Army subconsciously shouted violently, raised their blades and rushed towards the Dingping Army, which had been in chaos, and the Dingping Army let out an angry roar to meet the Yellow Turban Army.

The soldiers of the two sides collided again, and the scuffle began, each of them screaming with their mouths wide open, and their hands wielding their weapons desperately, and in a sword light, blood was constantly dotted among them, and the whole river was like boiling water.

A soldier of the Dingping Army roared, and the war knife in his hand slashed out, and the Yellow Turban soldier who was close at hand immediately turned his head in a different place, and the headless corpse sprayed blood into the filthy river.

Before the Dingping soldier had time to rejoice in his achievements, a Yellow Turban soldier appeared behind him, with a hideous face, and the ring knife in his hand stabbed into the vest of the Dingping Army soldier, and the Dingping Army soldier screamed, turned around suddenly, and used his last strength to cut down the Yellow Turban soldier who thought he had succeeded, and then he himself fell into the turbid river with his own back, and never got up again.

The two sides scuffled in the water, screaming and slashing each other desperately, like two wild beasts, and the casualty count of both sides rose in a straight line.

As time passed, the Dingping Army gradually gained the upper hand, however, the third wave of the Yellow Turban Army's beach-grabbing force had arrived.

As the enemy's 4,000 troops joined the battlefield, the situation on the battlefield began to be slowly grasped by the enemy.

Seeing this scene, Yang Kai subconsciously glanced behind him again, his main force still did not appear.

"Fuck it!"

Yang Kai couldn't help but scold.

At this moment, the fifteen thousand main forces that came out of Pingling City were desperately rushing towards Yang Kai's side, they had already been divided into two parts, one was a light infantry rushing in front, the other was five thousand people pushing all kinds of heavy equipment to walk behind, and 10,000 light infantry soldiers were rushing towards Yang Kai's side at a rapid marching speed.

The main force of the 30,000 Dingping Army was all gathered on the Daxiao field to stand ready to attack, and at the same time, Guan Yu was leading the 3,000 battalion of light cavalry to rush over to this side first, Guan Yu did not transfer the main force to this place, because he was not sure that the enemy's main attack direction was here.

Yang Kai put the matter of reinforcements behind him for the time being, pulled out his Miao knife suddenly, and shouted and ordered, "Crossbowmen stop shooting and rush up for hand-to-hand combat!" All the cavalry pressed up! ”

At this moment, the enemy has been mixed up with the Dingping army, and the role of the crossbowmen is no longer great.

The remaining more than 1,000 crossbowmen threw down their crossbows, drew their sabers, and with a loud shout, they poured down the river beach, while at the same time, more than 1,000 cavalry on both sides also rushed towards the enemy.

The scale of the melee is even bigger! The battle is even more miserable!

Yang Kai jumped down from his war horse, raised his Miao knife and shouted, "Rush up with Lao Tzu!" ”

As the words fell, Yang Kai rushed towards the chaotic battlefield first, with more than 100 personal soldiers following closely behind.

The generals of the Yellow Turban Army who gathered around Peng Tuo frowned slightly, everyone involuntarily held the hilt of their knives, their knuckles had turned white due to excessive force, and the tragic scene was presented in front of their eyes, and the earth-shattering shouts echoed in their ears, and every general felt both nervous and excited.

Peng Tuo looked at the battlefield and suddenly ordered: "Send another 10,000 people across the river to attack!" ”

The herald answered the promise and immediately conveyed the order.

10,000 soldiers of the Yellow Turban Army who were waiting on the south bank immediately boarded hundreds of rafts and began to cross the river.

At this moment, a scout rushed over and dismounted to report: "Qu Shuai, the herald says that the east is ready!" ”

Peng Tuo nodded: "Order, attack immediately!" ”

"No!"

The scout answered, stepped on his horse, and galloped away.

Peng Tuo looked at the eastern sky, and a flash of worry flashed in his eyes.

"Qu Shuai, are you going to attack at the same time on the east road?"

Du Xiang asked with his fists clenched.

Peng Tuo nodded and said, "Yes!" After a while, the east road will launch a strong attack, echoing us here! ”

Du Xiang pondered for a moment and asked suspiciously: "Is Qu Shuai's real main direction of attack in the west?" ”

Peng Tuo showed a rather confident smile, and when the generals were puzzled, Peng Tuo said lightly: "You also think so, which means that my plan has a good chance of success!" ”

Hearing Peng Tuo say this, Du Xiang couldn't help but be stunned, and an unfathomable feeling rose in his heart.
