330.Chapter 330: The Great Victory in Dongquan Town
Under the light of the setting sun, the soldiers of the Bangalore Regiment launched a second wave of attack. Probably because they had not had a good rest for the day, the Incas were much more tired than at noon, and their morale was a little lower.
However, their confidence in victory has not changed.
Shouting jagged slogans, he rushed to the front of the pit with square steps.
Huge pedals were lifted by the soldiers and put on top of the pit.
"Stop them!"
Zhao Guang ordered the infantry archers to let the four hundred archers inject and kill those who were "building bridges"
of soldiers.
This move effectively delayed the offensive speed of the Bangalore soldiers.
There were even Inca soldiers who panicked and accidentally let go of the pedal and fell into the pit.
Panga, who was watching the battle from the rear, was almost on fire with his eyes and was extremely angry, and the attacking soldiers, after paying the price of almost a hundred-man regiment, opened the way forward, and rushed under the walls of Dongquan Town on the pedal.
The sound of fighting and the clash of gold and iron immediately sounded.
Armed with a large number of spears on both sides, they stabbed each other, and from time to time the shafts of the spears clashed together with each other with a crackling sound.
There were also some Incas who brought a three-meter-long wooden ladder directly to the wall of Dongquan Town, ready to climb up the wooden ladder.
However, most of them were directly stopped by the emperor ** who was waiting for him.
"You can stop the attack of my Bengalore soldiers!"
Seeing that the offensive was not going well, and the Imperial people held the wall steadily, Pan Jia was a little more surprised again: "Didn't you say that the Eagle Yang Legion was the weakest of the Imperial people?" No, it must have been misled by the wrong intelligence. It is likely that the Empire had already received the information and sent their most elite troops here. β
Thinking so, he waved his hand and gave the order to increase the troops, and at the same time sent spearmen.
To be honest, the spearman is a class of troops, far inferior to a bow and crossbow, and is inferior to a sword, except for the considerable lethality at medium range, there is nothing else, but it is also a waste of resources.
However, the reason why the Incas retained this type of army was that the Incas were far inferior to the empire in their warfare equipment, and could not build advanced stone throwers and bed crossbows, and even bows and crossbows were not very sophisticated.
Moreover, after improvement, the current Incas no longer have pure spearmen.
The spearman of the Bangalore Regiment is a part-time melee spearman.
In addition to the weapons of the main hand, each person carried two additional disposable throwing spears.
Even if they are used, it will not affect them to continue fighting as a normal spear class.
In the case of the underdeveloped crossbow class, the spearman was an effective long-range strike for the Bangalore.
With Panga's order, five hundred spearmen began to assemble and hurriedly stepped forward.
In order to ensure continuous suppression, as well as the maximum lethal effect, the five hundred spearmen did not shoot in unison, but divided into five rounds.
In this way, since each person carries two throwing spears, a maximum of 100 shots per round can be inflicted, for a total of 10 rounds.
However, it is better to take the spear by surprise.
But Panga despised the emperor's ** people, and did not use the killer weapon when he came up, so that now he missed the best opportunity, because the Bangalore soldiers and the imperial people have already fought together.
In order to ensure that the spear would not accidentally injure their own people, they had to deliberately close the distance, but this in turn gave the emperor ample time to respond.
"Spear throwing?"
Zhao Guang's eyes shrank, and he immediately ordered the archers to turn around and shoot these spearmen in the rear, while reminding his own soldiers to dodge.
A sharp roar far sharper than an arrow piercing through the air rang out, and spears fell with astonishing lethality.
To add insult to injury, Pang's men smeared the sap of a plant on it, which had a fairly good toxic and paralyzing effect.
Even if you don't hit the vital point, the effect of the medicine can make the enemy paralyzed and even faint on the spot!
Unfortunately, the actual killing effect was not as good as Panga imagined.
The accuracy of throwing a spear cannot be compared with that of a bow and crossbow.
The first round of 100 spears was thrown, even if they had deliberately put the distance closer, they still missed most of them.
The rest happened to fall into the crowd, and some soldiers who had been prepared in advance were lucky enough to escape.
Only a few or less than 10 people were actually killed or wounded by spear throwing.
In fact, the greater effect of this thing is to deter and confuse the enemy's mind.
If the opponent was also a princely soldier in the Inca region, he might indeed fall apart after a few rounds of such spear throwing.
But the Eagle Yang Legion is also a regular army of the empire, and it was personally trained by the famous Chengguo Gong, so it is naturally not so easy to rout.
What's more, the number of people killed and wounded by throwing spears is not more than that of their own foot archers.
As the 400-step archers began to counter-suppress, the spear-throwers, who had been suffering casualties, panicked.
Many of them even took aim at random, hurriedly threw their spears in their hands, and then retreated.
The spear-throwers, who had high hopes from Panga, only made the Eagle Yang Legion a little messy and caused a little more damage, but they didn't really shake the defenders!
"Lord Shiva is above, how can this be!"
Panga's face changed, and he became more and more convinced that the army in front of him was the elite and strong army of the empire, maybe it was some kind of "city guard"
γ
Otherwise, how could it be possible to continue fighting against the attack of the spearman, instead of crying and collapsing?
Before he could calm down from this frustrated fact, the counterattack of the Eagle Yang Army began.
As another regiment of 1,000 men joined the battle with the spearmen, the walls of the town of East Springs were crowded with soldiers of the Bangalore Regiment.
In one scene, Zhao Guang felt that the conditions for fire attack were ripe, so he decided to use this trick in advance to give the Incas a color.
A moment later, a large amount of fire oil and other types of grease collected spilled down from the wall.
Then, only one round of rockets is needed to go down...... Ordinary rockets are indeed not easy to ignite the vine armor of the Incas.
But after pouring the oil on the fire, a terrible flame suddenly burned on the drenched Bangalore soldiers, and in a short time spread among the vine armor soldiers.
Some Bangalore soldiers were quick to react and immediately rolled on the ground in an attempt to extinguish the flames.
Someone did succeed, but most of the efforts were in vain, fueled by the oil and fuel.
As a last resort, the soldiers even ignored the fact that they were still on the battlefield and forcibly took off their rattan armor, but what awaited them was the feathered arrows of the foot archers.
What's even worse is that along with the clothes and hair on his body, he was also burned, even if he took off his armor.
The terrible screams hit the Bangalore soldiers hard, and they began to scramble to flee while holding the bone amulet that had been lit up by the sacrifice.
Don't forget, there's a crater 30 meters behind you!
When they came, two groups of 1,000 people rushed over in an orderly manner with more than a dozen pedals.
But at this moment, in order to escape back, the soldiers began to push and scramble, and even drew their swords against each other.
And the emperor's foot archers took the opportunity to shoot and kill, which intensified the panic and confusion.
The flames spread further among the gathered soldiers, and a large number of soldiers were pushed under the pit to die on the blades of their blades, and even trampled on each other.
The entire Bengaluru group of 10,000 people was stunned by the tragedy in front of them.
When the two regiments of 1,000 finally jumped back in horror, there were only a thousand people left alive, including a large number of wounded soldiers who were burned by the flames.
In just such an attack, the Bangalore regiment lost nearly a thousand soldiers.
Even the soldiers who came back alive were completely demoralized and demoralized.
Without enough time to recuperate, it is simply impossible to go back to the battlefield.
"This is the army of the Inca Kingdom?"
After counting the casualties and finding that it was less than two percent of the other party, Zhao Guang couldn't help but feel a little more contempt on his face.
Although this is related to his own defensive position, the city defense of Dongquan Town is also the level of an ordinary town, and he does not have a large city defense weapon in his hand.
The proportion of casualties can be so disparity to this Cheng dΓΉ, although there is an element of fire attack, but the Incas were defeated so quickly and so badly, it can only be said that their combat strength and fighting spirit are too poor.
If the army of the Incas is of this level, then the so-called 100,000 army is not to be feared!
The first day of the offensive, a complete failure!
The screams of the soldiers, as well as the suspicious eyes of the Wudou Midao army, kept Panga awake all night.
Early the next morning, with red eyes, he did not choose to retreat and avoid the edge for a while, or to rest and fight again, but continued to launch an onslaught without believing in evil.
This time, the attacking queue is more spread out and there are more pedals for crossing the pit.
Although the Imperials' fire attack was still a mortal threat, Panga was well aware that the fire oil of the defenders of Dongquan Town was limited.
A lot of it had been used up in a fire attack yesterday, and he didn't believe that the Imperial people could suddenly conjure up more black fire oil overnight!
The next battle seemed to be going the same way Panga had predicted.
Although the defenders used fire for the second time, the scale and lethality were much worse than yesterday's.
Mentally prepared, the Bengaluru legionnaires lost only two or three hundred men.
And after this time, the Bangalore regiment finally had no scruples and could attack unscrupulously.
The battlefield once returned to the tough battles and strong attacks of real swords and guns!
As one of the two main armies of the Inca Kingdom, Panga has always had full confidence in the Bangalore Legion to which he belongs.
Despite yesterday's successive setbacks, he firmly believed that it was because the people of the Empire were vile and shameless, and only dared to stop him with intrigues.
As long as the two sides fought head-on, it would not be a problem to break through the defenses of the Imperials.
However, the soldiers of the Eagle Yang Legion led by Zhao Guang used reality to teach Pan Jia a hard lesson!
Even if there is no way to take a trick and fight head-on, the emperor ** people are still not comparable to the Incas.
After yesterday's crushing defeat, the morale of the Bangalore Army was already low, and after three days of attack, it was never able to enter Dongquan Town.
Zhao Guang, who seized the opportunity, took the initiative to attack in response to the chaos of the Bangalore Mingjin retreat, drove the rout and rolled back the Chinese army in Panga, and then pursued Shili and achieved an unprecedented victory.
In the four days before and after, 3,500 enemies were killed, 2,000 were captured, and their own losses were less than 1,000!
