Chapter 21: Who is Black Hawk

The Airborne Forces mechanically perform monotonous movements, constantly aiming, firing crossbow arrows, and occasionally throwing thunderbolts. In this particular case, the crossbow as a cold weapon is even more effective than a musket.

This is because the crossbow can fire 50 crossbow arrows in a row without stopping to wind them, and more importantly, these airborne troops can shoot accurately, even if the enemy has a shield and armor, they can accurately shoot the crossbow arrows into the parts that the enemy cannot protect, causing damage to the enemy.

Therefore, if other soldiers in the Shu army were replaced to use horse crossbows, they would not be able to achieve such good results. After all, the penetration of horse crossbows is limited, and they cannot penetrate shields, armor and other protective equipment.

The 2,000 Eastern Wu soldiers who participated in the attack soon went forward one after another and fell on the way to the charge. Of the 3,000 people transferred by Ding Feng, about 1,000 were auxiliary troops such as archers, tower shield soldiers, and bed crossbow soldiers, and only 2,000 people actually participated in the charge.

Ding Feng saw that he had lost more than 2,000 people in vain, and he couldn't help but be angry from his heart, and he ordered to transfer another 5,000 men and horses, vowing to break through the Shu army's position and crush these damn Western Shu bugs, crush their bones and scatter ashes.

On the side of the Shu army, the airborne troops seized the time of this gap and hurriedly reloaded and wound the empty arrow magazine. The Eastern Wu army was bustling and gathered from both sides to a hundred steps in front of the defensive position, and if the light was good, from the air, you would see two black shadows shrinking from both sides to the middle, like a black eagle gathering its wings.

Yes, the black eagle in the fall of the black eagle definitely does not refer to the Shu army but to the Eastern Wu army, the fall of the black eagle in the United States is a failed military operation, an action that ends in a cup, since Liu Hou is named after this name, of course he will not be so unlucky as a falling black eagle. Therefore, this operation is to knock down Ding Fengjun's black eagle.

The captain looked at the movements of the Soochow Army and knew that it was almost there, so he resolutely lit the message fireworks that had been planted in front of him for a long time. The message fireworks let out a long whistle and shot into the sky, bursting into a brilliant green spark.

Ding Feng looked at the green flowers that were shot into the sky, his face changed, and he said, "It's not good!" Then he turned around and went out of the camp. As soon as I turned around, I heard another voice coming: "Oh no! It's going to be bad, run away. ”

Ding Feng was half angry to death, and when he looked at it, it was really Zhou Xue, wasn't she locked up by herself? Why did you run out again? It turned out that Ding Feng's personal soldiers had followed Ding Feng for many years, so they naturally knew Zhou Xue. knew that she was the daughter of the governor of Zhou, and knew that his general took great care of her, so he didn't dare to be disrespectful to her at all, and he waited carefully.

Zhou Xue insisted on running out by herself, and the soldiers had no choice, and after the persuasion was ineffective, they could only watch her run in front of Ding Feng again.

Ding Feng looked at the two panting soldiers who were running behind Zhou Xue, stared at him, and shouted, "Liu Liu, Ding Li, what are you two bastards doing?" How can you let her run out, lock her up for me immediately, and if I see her run out again, you two will come to see her. ”

Poor Liu Liu and Ding Li, two personal soldiers, were reprimanded, who dared to slack off, and hurriedly set up Zhou Xue and escorted her back to the camp to be re-imprisoned.

After poor Zhou Xue tried her best to run out, she only had time to say a word before she was locked up again. Who wants her to be a crow's beak and say such unlucky things? Ding Fengzheng was overwhelmed by the Shu army, he had just lost thousands of men and horses here, and he faintly guessed that a bigger crisis was behind, Zhou Xue was now saying this kind of unlucky words, just hit the muzzle of the gun, where did he still care about the old feelings, and directly ordered someone to take her into custody.

During this delay, there was already an earth-shaking shout of killing from the front camp, and Ding Feng couldn't help but speed up his pace and run forward.

Rewind time to a few minutes ago, outside the Dongwu military camp, Liu Hou heard a whistle, raised his head and saw a green firework exploding in the sky, knowing that it was time.

Liu Hou turned his head to the vultures and said, "Old vultures, it's green fireworks, and the 101 Airborne Forces have informed us that we can attack." You immediately lead someone to follow the original plan, and there must be no mistakes. ”

The vulture bone was very serious and hugged his fists and said "No", but his tall figure and face were full of horizontal flesh, but he lay on the ground and meekly clasped his fists and saluted, which made people feel how awkward it looked.

Military orders were passed down one by one, and groups of Shu troops moved one after another. First of all, a team of rattan armor soldiers with rope hooks came out of the darkness, quickly ran to the horse rejecting deer in front of the Dongwu military camp, threw out the rope hook in their hands, hooked those rejecting horse deer, and then shouted the trumpet, and pulled together, and many rejecting horse deer were pulled down.

They didn't care about anything else, they still pulled these horse rejecting deer and ran back, their speed was so fast that the archers of the Eastern Wu Army did not react at all, and no one thought of archery. Of course, even if they shoot arrows, it is useless, and the Shu army, wearing rattan armor, is completely immune to ordinary bow and arrow strikes.

When the first team of rattan armor soldiers pulled back the red deer bar, the other team of rattan armor soldiers stepped forward with a torch in one hand and an iron lump in the other, and after ten steps away, a slogan shouted, and everyone was thrown into the trench of the Eastern Wu army with a www.biquge.info of fun, and then everyone quickly fell to the ground with their heads in their hands.

A continuous rumbling sound sounded, and the thunderbolts thrown into the trench exploded one after another, so the Soochow pikemen hiding in the trench were tragic.

It is already remarkable that the people of Eastern Wu can think of using trenches to confront the hot weapons of the Shu army, but they have not accumulated enough experience in fighting with hot weapons troops, so they dug the trenches straight according to their experience.

It was to dig a straight trench in front of their barracks, from which one end could see the other. They don't understand that trenches are to be dug in twists and turns, zigzags.

They will not understand the truth that when a bomb explodes in a trench, the shock wave and shrapnel travel a long distance along the narrow trench. They don't understand the need to stop the propagation of blast waves with zigzag, zigzag-shaped trenches.

When the Shu army threw thunderbolts into the trenches at certain intervals, the blast wave spread along the straight trenches and almost the entire trench, and the Eastern Wu pikemen inside were either killed or wounded, and almost none of them were spared.

At this time, the Dongwu archers behind the low wall finally reacted, and they began to release arrows one after another. However, a large number of archers were transferred by Ding Feng to encircle and suppress the 101 Airborne Troops, so that the bows and arrows shot by the archers of Eastern Wu were sparse.

What's more, Ding Feng dismantled all the bed crossbows and moved them to the inside of the camp to encircle and suppress the airborne troops, so on this front, there was no longer a store that could threaten the vine armor soldiers.

At this time, the third row of rattan armor soldiers rushed out in the rain of arrows, and they all held the standard broadswords of the Shu army, rushed to the place where the rejuvenating red deer were originally placed, swung their knives and chopped, and cleaned up the remnants of the rejuvenated deer.

Soon, the second and third teams of rattan armor soldiers became hedgehogs, because they were full of arrows fired by the archers of the Eastern Wu Dynasty. Slightly different from hedgehogs, they have spines that grow in front of their bodies, while hedgehogs have spines that grow to their backs. There were no deserters in the Shu army, and naturally there were no soldiers who stabbed in the back like real hedgehogs.

Like hedgehogs, although they are covered with thorns, they are all alive and well. The bows and arrows shot by the archers of Eastern Wu could not penetrate the rattan armor at all, but were nailed to the outer layer of the rattan armor and did not fall for a while.

The second row of rattan armor soldiers stood up, ran a few steps forward, and continued to drop bombs. This time, the target of their bombs was the Soochow soldiers behind the low wall. It's just that behind the low wall is a vast clearing, not a narrow trench, and the blast wave cannot travel a long distance laterally. As a result, the Shu army could only increase the number of bombs to make up for the decrease in lethality caused by the lack of terrain.

Therefore, this time, the second platoon of rattan armor soldiers dropped twice as much bombs as they had just used to deal with the trenches. With the sound of a rumbling explosion, the Dongwu archers on the low wall were all staggered, and it was basically difficult to find a person standing.

The fourth team of vine armor soldiers, led by the suffocated vulture bones, rushed out with a big knife, and with a hurdle action that made Liu Xiang embarrassed, he easily crossed the low wall, and then began their process of chopping wood.

In this case, they don't have to line up at all, they don't have to use the neat diagonal splitting action, and they don't need to queue up together. Because at this time, there were not many Dongwu soldiers behind the low wall, and the rest of them were not dead, either injured or confused, and even scared stupid, and they didn't react at all What to do.

The vulture bone led this team of vine armor soldiers to move freely, slash and kill freely, and soon cut down the Dongwu people in this defense line like chopping wood.

Then, they advanced towards the second line of defense. The second line of defense was actually less than 50 meters away from the first, and without blocking it, they quickly arrived.

As usual, the first team of rattan armor soldiers used ropes to pull down most of the horse rejuvenators, then the second team of grenadiers blew up the Dongwu people in the trenches, then the third team cleaned up the remnants of the rejuvenated horse deer bars, the second team continued to blow up the archers behind the low wall, and finally the fourth team rushed up to cut people.

After the actual combat of the first line of defense, the Shu army has become much more proficient in this process, but the difference is that the Eastern Wu soldiers of the second line of defense saw what the Shu army did in the first line of defense and were prepared, so that the attack of the Shu army lost its suddenness.

However, this suddenness did not have much effect, because, even if the archers of the Eastern Wu army had been prepared, the arrows they shot could not break through the rattan armor of the Shu army.

When Ding Feng arrived at the front line, the Shu army was already attacking the third line of defense, which was also the last line of defense of Eastern Wu. However, the Shu army's attack speed was very fast, and Ding Feng watched the third line of defense being broken by the Shu army but there was nothing he could do.

Just as Ding Feng ordered the soldiers of the entire barracks to assemble and plan a decisive battle with the Shu army, the Shu army's vine armor army stopped advancing, and they stood in front of the formation, while the Eastern Wu army also quickly gathered to Ding Feng's place, and soon lined up behind Ding Feng.
