Chapter 357: Sweeping away the remnants of the enemy
In just ten breaths, Li Bin's master and apprentice had already flown over the West City Gate, and looking down from the sky, more than 10,000 soldiers of the Fusang Sabre Samurai Legion were shouting, struggling to wave their swords and attack from under the stairs of the West City Wall.
Under the ferocious offensive of the Fusang army, the soldiers on both sides of the two stairs of the western city wall were crowded together, and the dead corpses were already piled up on the stairs, and the soldiers on both sides were almost trampling on the fallen corpses and fighting hard.
The two stairs leading to the city wall on the west city wall are relatively wide, two meters wide, and more than ten meters long are now densely packed with hundreds of red-eyed and desperate soldiers of the two armies. Due to the crowd and crowding, it was difficult to unleash the sword, and the entangled soldiers of the two armies even threw down the inconvenient sword, waved their fists, and tore with their teeth.
Under the supervision of their respective generals, the soldiers of the two armies who could not squeeze up the ladder to fight under the city wall and under the city wall took out their bows and crossbows to shoot at each other, and the first line of the west city wall was full of arrows and crossbows flying up and down, which was spectacular.
The Fusang army was firing at the defenders for a while, and the inherent disadvantage of shooting from the bottom of the city made the Fusang army fail to take any advantage in the confrontation with the Qi army, and the Fusang generals were angry and waved their troops to build ladders to attack the city.
The Fuso army only carried a simple bamboo ladder, and after the general attack order was issued, the Fuso army immediately erected more than ten siege ladders and climbed up from the ladder.
Since the Qi army at the West City Gate had nearly 10,000 Huizhou reinforcements brought by Qi Xing, the king of Chu, and the combat effectiveness of the Qi army was also very strong, although the attacking Fusang Sabre Samurai Army was well-armed and well-trained, it could not take much advantage in white-knuckle warfare. The Qi army's defense line still looks quite solid.
"Yunshi, I'll give you a task, you go back and nail the Fusang legion that came out of the East City Gate to the division, and you can't let them reach the West City Gate smoothly. Join the battle. Li Bin said to the disciple Yun Shi beside him.
"Obey the teacher's orders!" The cloud lion agreed, and then turned around and flew away.
Li Bin locked on several generals in the Fusang army who were loudly directing the battle, descended from the sky, and slaughtered the commander of the Fusang army neatly.
The Fuso soldiers, who were in the midst of a fierce battle, suddenly lost their command, and the offensive could not help but weaken. In this way, effective command is lost. It is absolutely impossible for the Fuso Sabre Samurai Legion to capture the western city wall.
Seeing that the defense line of the Qi army on the west city wall was solid and he was relieved, Li Bin turned around and flew back to the north city wall.
"Old General Qin, gather the troops, except for leaving five thousand troops to defend the city, they are all mobilized. It's time to sweep and clear up! As soon as Li Binfu landed, he said to Qin Mu.
"Great! The soldiers couldn't bear it anymore, and this time let these Fusang people know the strength of our Daqi army! Qin Mu laughed loudly. Lehehe turned around and went to dispatch the army.
"The army of Qi at the North City Gate can attack with nearly 30,000 troops, and this force has an absolute advantage in strength no matter which city gate the Fusang army is on.
Moreover, compared with the Fusang army, the Qi army attacking at the North City Gate also has a major advantage, that is, it has been recuperating for a long time, and its morale and fighting spirit are high. It is a veritable new force with strong combat effectiveness.
At this moment, from time to time there was a loud sound of thunder explosions in the palm of the palm on the street heading to the West City Gate. Li Bin knew that it must be his disciple Yunshi who was using palm thunder to block the enemy's reinforcements.
"Lianlong! Let the cavalry go with me! Li Bin ordered loudly.
"The last general commands!" The adjutant general Lian Long immediately dispatched a cavalry team of 2,000 cavalry to follow Li Bin.
The street where the Yunshi blocked the east city gate and the Fusang reinforcements was the main road of Dengfeng City. The street was wide, more than three feet wide, and it was not a big problem for a small group of cavalry to rush up.
Especially in the case of scattered formations of the Fuso army, the effect of the cavalry attack is leveraged. Moreover, the 2,000 Left Heavenly Cavalry was followed by 30,000 vigorous Qi infantry troops.
After the explosion of the "booming" palm thunder, the 2,000 cavalry brandished their shining scimitars and charged towards the Fuso army that was scurrying around the streets.
The shock of the cavalry. The Fusang Army, which had already fallen into chaos, was directly broken up, and the Fusang Army could not organize a large-scale team to resist the attack of the Qi army.
Li Bin duly threw in 20,000 infantry troops and then covered up and killed, clearing the remaining resistance of the Fusang army house by house.
Under the strong sweep of the Qi army's infantry army, the scattered Fusang army scattered in the houses was not an opponent at all, and this was a one-sided battle to sweep away the remnants of the enemy on the battlefield. The Qi soldiers did not encounter strong and effective resistance from the Fuso army. The battle went very smoothly, and the casualties of the Qi army in the battle were not large. The Fuso army, which had already panicked and lost its soul, performed very poorly in battle.
"General Qin, leave 10,000 infantry troops to sweep away the remnants of the enemy, and the rest of the troops continue to advance to support the Qi army on the western city wall." Li Bin said to Qin Mu on the side.
"Okay, the last general will go and regroup the troops immediately." After observing Li Bin in the Battle of Dengfeng City, Qin Mu had completely surrendered to Li Bin's battlefield command from the bottom of his heart, and he unswervingly followed Li Bin's battlefield instructions and never discounted them at all.
The Fusang Legion coming out of the East City Gate had lost most of its strength under the joint attack of the Qi army's infantry and cavalry, and there were only thousands of panicked remnants left, which was no longer enough to worry about. 10,000 Qi infantry troops were more than enough to deal with these remaining defeated soldiers.
When the cavalry at the North Gate charged the flank of the Fuso Saber Samurai, who was climbing the siege with all their might, it immediately caused a great confusion in the enemy formation.
No matter which army is fighting at full strength, it will not be easy for anyone to be attacked by the enemy on its flank. What's more, most of the leading generals of this Saber Saber Warrior Legion were killed by Li Bin, which made this Fusang Saber Saber Legion lose any possibility of quickly recovering from the chaos and making effective changes in time, so it could only passively let the Qi army attack.
This Fusang Saber Samurai Legion had been fighting with the Xichengmen Qi army for a long time, and they were already very tired after a long attack. Well, it was suddenly attacked by the Qi army of the North City Gate led by Li Bin, and it was impossible to resist it at all.
Although the saber warrior has strong personal combat power, on the battlefield, the main fight is tactics and battle formations. In both cases, the Fusang Legion was at an absolute disadvantage, and the individual bravery of the soldiers alone could not change the trend and outcome of the entire battle.
"General Qin, let's start." Li Bin gave Qin Mu a general attack order.
"Cloud Lion, let's go together!" Li Bin and his disciple Yunshi together, rushed into the Fusang army formation, all the way to the invincible, Li Bin master and apprentice at the same time to kill the immortal finger rain in the sky, the killing effect is very efficient and poignant, it is no exaggeration to say that Li Bin master and apprentice path, along the way within a zhang of the Fusang soldiers have died.
Suddenly, the shouts of 20,000 Qi army infantry soldiers charging sounded over the streets of the west city wall, and the 20,000 energetic Qi army infantry soldiers followed Li Bin's master and apprentice, sweeping and attacking all the way.
When Qi Xing, the king of Chu, saw that the reinforcements were coming, he also threw all the remaining fresh troops into the battle, and launched a fierce counterattack against the Fusang Saber Warrior Legion.
Under the ferocious front and rear attacks of the Qi army, the last well-equipped and well-trained Fusang saber warrior corps was quickly defeated, and the Fusang army had been separated and surrounded by the superior forces of the Qi army into dozens of pieces, and it was only a matter of time before the whole army was wiped out.
The melee did not last long, and half an hour later, the elite Fuso legion composed of 20,000 saber warriors was completely annihilated by the Qi army. (To be continued.) )
