For this second line of defense with the Eight Bull Crossbow as the core, Lin Yu has high hopes, after all, on the surface, there are no flaws in the defense line.

According to his estimates, this line of defense can block the rebels for three to four hours, and if he is lucky enough, it is not impossible to carry it directly until dawn, no matter how bad it is, he can withstand two hours, and this is exactly the time Wang Zheng needs.

After all, the core of this line of defense is the Eight Bull Crossbow, and if you want to break through this line of defense, you have to take your life to fill the pit, and if the pit cannot be filled, it is impossible to break through.

However, Lin Yu was very sad to find that he once again underestimated the fifth round.

Before leaving, Lin Yu knew that there was a large number of Japanese soldiers in the fifth round, and this Japanese soldier was also used as a hole card and killer weapon by the fifth round.

Lin Yu participated in the Jiaodong War, and under the command of Meng Qian and Lu Xiaobing, Lin Yu fought with the Japanese soldiers of the island country more than once.

The Japanese soldiers did dare to work hard, obeyed orders, and endured hardships and stood hard work, but their quality was too low, their equipment was too poor, and their physical conditions were even more miserable.

[In view of the general environment,

In Lin Yu's eyes, the Japanese soldiers with an average height of less than five feet are the military merits and heads who are actively sent to the door, and they are not opponents at all.

Such garbage, even if it is given to Lin Yu, Lin Yu will not hesitate to ask for it.

You must know that Lin Yu, like Wang Zheng, grew up in the Changying Army, and what they came into contact with and was used to was the Changying Army, and when they were used to it for reference and comparison, the object of analogy was naturally the Changying Army.

Judging by the standards of the Changying Army, the Japanese soldiers with an average height of less than five feet are not even eligible to be selected.

Of course, these Japanese soldiers and Japanese people are not really nowhere to be placed, at least Lin Yu heard Guo Rong say that in the future, all the Japanese will be sent to the coal mine in Fugu to dig coal.

Lin Yu despised the fifth round and also despised these Japanese soldiers, and as a result, the fifth round was really at this critical moment, giving full play to the greatest advantages of the Japanese soldiers and obeying orders.

When his subordinates told Lin Yu that all the Eight Bull crossbows in front of him had less than ten crossbow arrows, Lin Yu felt a strong sense of powerlessness.

It's as if a cotton flower flew in front of you, and then you smashed it with your fist, and then, you were directly smashed out by the cotton thrown by your opponent.

Although he was a little disappointed, this did not affect Lin Yu's command.

Ten crossbow arrows can already be regarded as a cordon, according to the previous strategy, it is indeed possible to delay a little longer, but it is of little significance, and it will make it difficult to retreat.

Lin Yu didn't hesitate and immediately issued a series of orders.

As the order was passed into place, the divisions on the second line of defense immediately began to change.

All the crossbowmen stopped firing at the first time, first checked the status of the crossbows, then began to reload, and after completing the reload, they were all on standby.

The heavy infantry guarding outside the Ba Niu crossbow formation switched from defending on the spot to attacking, and the heavy infantry formed groups in groups of three or three and began to expand their range and take the initiative to attack.

As for all the eight-ox crossbows, the soldiers on the battle position began to sprinkle fire oil and tung oil on the eight-ox crossbows to which they belonged.

Then, all the Eight Bull crossbows aim at the opponent and fire as fast as possible, killing and damaging the enemy as much as possible, creating a large enough gap.

After all the heavy crossbow arrows were fired, the soldiers dismantled the core parts of the Eight Ox crossbow as quickly as possible, and then set the remaining parts on fire with a single fire.

Compared with Lin Yu, who can easily observe the battle situation, it is difficult for the attacking side to grasp the movement of the battlefield in the first time in the fifth round.

For example, he could not see the foot soldiers of the Tang army taking the initiative to attack.

However, at this moment, the sudden fire was still clearly presented in front of their eyes, and seeing this fireball, the fifth round's face was once again smiling.

In half an hour, nearly 10,000 Japanese soldiers were smashed in, and the casualties were really large, but the Tang Army's crossbow loss was finally consumed, but such losses were in the fifth round

It seems to be worth it.

Otherwise, it is impossible to break through without a few hours of grinding little by little.

Lin Yu didn't hesitate at all, the fifth round was also unusually fast after discovering the changes, and the Japanese soldiers who had not yet entered the actual battle were withdrawn.

The attackers in the next stage were replaced by self-trained recruits.

In the fifth round, I didn't want to let these Japanese soldiers continue to advance, but in just half an hour, the Japanese soldiers lost nearly half, and Rao was a Japanese soldier, and their morale was inevitably low to a low point, if it weren't for their special culture and customs, I am afraid they would have mutinied a long time ago.

More importantly, judging from the performance of the Tang Army taking the initiative to burn the Eight Bull Crossbows, everything in the Tang Army is planned, systematic, and calculated, which proves that the Tang Army has not been defeated at this moment, and there must be a defensive line laid by the Tang Army behind it.

Judging from the first line of defense with military tents and Yongdao as the core, and the second line of defense with the eight-ox crossbow forming the defense system, the level of the commanders of the Tang Army was extremely high.

Therefore, there is reason to believe that the standard of the third line of defense will not be much lower in the fifth round.

Now that the second line of defense has been breached, there is no need to consume it any longer, and it may not be necessary to use these most suitable Japanese soldiers to send them to death at that time.

The Men set fire to all the Eight Ox crossbows and quickly retreated with the core parts, and when their retreat was complete, the heavy infantry in front continued to retreat under the pressure of the crossbowmen who had rested for a while behind.

Soon, under the cover of a continuous stream of crossbow arrows, the heavy infantry again broke away from contact with the rebels and withdrew to the last line of defense before the rebels arrived.

Compared to the previous one, this third line of defense is actually the one that Lin Yu has put the least amount of thought into it, but it would be a big mistake to ignore it because of this.

Lin Yu really didn't put too much thought into it, but the engineer battalion to which Zuo Weiwei belonged plus half of the logistics battalion worked hard for nearly half a month.

In the past half a month, the sappers forcibly dug a trench in the middle of the camp with a depth of nearly one zhang, a width of nearly two zhang, and a length of nearly four miles.

While digging the trench, the sappers also placed the excavated earth directly on the east side of the trench with logistical assistance.

The excavated soil was used to build a terrace on the east side of the ditch that was more than four feet high and more than two feet wide, similar to the passage of the city wall.

On the western edge of the terrace, there is an additional layer, four feet high and five feet wide, with a low wall embroidered with battlements.

The height difference between the terrace and the low wall reaches an astonishing one foot and four inches, and if the low wall above the platform is added, the height difference is close to two zhang.

If it is placed in the later generations, this is already equivalent to a height difference of more than six meters, even if the average height of the Tang Army is more than six feet, it will take four Tang Army soldiers to add up to achieve this astonishing height difference.

Although there was no moat, and the simple walls were not made up of real burned rammed earth, which was not so strong, it was not so strong that it would not be destroyed in two hits.

If the strength of the material is not considered, the current level of defense is no less than the level of ordinary county towns in Datang.

When the rebels who followed Zuo Weiwei came here, they saw the heavy infantry marching in order, along the narrow passage that had been reserved.

The same situation appeared here again, everyone knew that the weakness of the Eight Bull Crossbow was that it could not turn and could only attack a target in a straight line, so it only needed to be dispersed enough to minimize the power and lethality of the Eight Bull Crossbow.

However, at this moment, facing only a few roads to the third line of defense of the Don Army, facing the Don Army that was moving along these roads.

The rebels, forgetting the lessons they had learned with their blood and lives, swarmed forward once more, raising their blades in their hands, shouting and howling.

The rebels then swooped forward, but when they were only about ten paces away from the lagging hoplites, the men of the apparatus who were holding on to the improvised ramparts struck the crossbow of the Eight Oxen with their hammers, and the crossbowmen pulled the trigger in their hands.

Ten huge crossbow arrows, hundreds of sharp, sharp three-edged crossbow arrows, had already flown in front of them.

The three rebels who rushed to the front were first pierced by three heavy crossbows, but this was not the end, their sack-like bodies were broken like three large holes, and then they were shot into dozens of three-edged crossbow arrows, and instantly turned into three porcupines full of missing arrows.

However, in a sense, these three guys are happy, because the process of their death is so fast, and they have escaped even more tragic torture.

As before, the crossbow of the Eight Bull Crossbow lost as its kinetic energy weakened and could no longer pass through people, so the human flesh candy gourd, which had been repeated for half an hour, reappeared on the battlefield.

If there is any difference, it is that this time, under the salvo of the Eight Ox Crossbow and the Jin Ballist, the sugar gourd has a lot of crystals composed of crossbows, and if it is daytime, you may still be able to see a little bit of light shining on these crystals.

The first wave of hundreds of rebels who tried to pursue fell in just an instant, and the rest of them may not have fallen, but they must have been shot by the crossbow, except for a few guys with iron heads, the rest began to fall backwards, wolf rush.

This astonishing stance gave the pursuing rebels a great deterrent.

However, there is no shortage of opportunists in this world, let alone those who dare to take risks.

After the first wave of hundreds of people fell to the ground in an instant, there was silence among the rebels for more than a dozen breaths, and then, with a shout, more than a hundred outlaw rebels rushed along the path of the first wave of rebels again.

However.

"Phew! Swish! Swish! Swish! Whew!"

This time there were no eight-bull crossbows, but the dense arrows still fell from the sky, and more than a hundred people fell to the ground again.

Obviously, it was two groups of total annihilation, but some of the more active people in the rebel army had already discovered the problem, this time there were no eight-bull crossbows, and the number of crossbow arrows was less than before.

The moment the problem was discovered, the smart person wanted to rush out directly, but who dared to guarantee that this was not a trap set by the Tang Army?

So......

"The Tang Army's heavy crossbow is out of arrows, kill it!"

No one knew who shouted this sentence, but the moment this voice came out, more than two hundred rebels were instantly moved, so these guys rushed directly forward in another wave.

This time, however, let the shock rebels down.

In addition to the crossbows, there were traces of the eight-bull crossbows, and there were ten eight-ox crossbow arrows, with hundreds of crossbows.

Looking at the rebels who died tragically because of their own foolishness, the smart man who shouted that the Tang army had no arrows looked ahead, and he had more than one season, but fortunately he had no impulse.

But after thinking about it, even if it is a trap, it will not be used twice, and this time the Tang Army should not have it again, but who dares to guarantee it?

A moment later.

"It's already been twice, even if the Tang Army has arrows this time, it will definitely not be too late to load, not at this time, let alone when!"

Suddenly, but unobtrusively, the shouts appeared again among the rebels.

The first wave of rebels who arrived here have watched two groups of comrades die in the hands of the Tang army, this time even if there is hope, they will not rush to attack, but they can't bear the rebels in the rear, and there are always rebels to follow up, among which there are a small number of lucky enough to run all the way to this island country Japanese soldiers alive.

The others had already been broken, but these later guys didn't see the corpses of the first two groups, so the rebels of nearly five hundred people rushed forward in a swarm.

Behind them, the smart man quietly straightened the armor on his body, helped his slightly crooked iron stomach, checked the horizontal knife on his waist, clenched the rifle in his hand from the Tang Jun who died in battle, and stared straight ahead.

He's made up his mind, and if this attack is successful, he'll take the lead.

However, this time, an unprecedented wave of arrows struck again, including not only powerful crossbows, but also eight-bull crossbows, and even strong bows in the hands of archers joined the battle sequence.

The idea of a smart man cannot be said to be wrong, but he does not understand Lin

Yu, even less understand the forbidden army.

The number of eight-bull crossbows and eight-bull crossbows and arrows in Lin Yu's hands is indeed not much, but it does not mean that there are none.

After abandoning the camp wall on the west side, and abandoning the first and second lines of defense, the area of the camp in his hands has been reduced to a little more than a third of the entire camp.

On the surface, the area has decreased, but since in the previous battles, the losses were mainly materials and ordnance rather than people, so the strength of the Tang army was not weakened by the compression of the area.

On the contrary, after the auxiliary soldiers and wounded soldiers also took the initiative to participate in the battle, the number of available personnel in Lin Yu's hands skyrocketed by more than three percent, and the density of personnel per unit area skyrocketed by three times.

Twenty eight-bull crossbows, one thousand crossbows lost, this is the stock of eight-bull crossbows and crossbow arrows left by Lin Yu on the third line of defense, in front of the open field, it is not enough to kill a large number of people, but at a critical time, it can form enough power and even affect the battle situation.

In order to save the loss of the crossbow, delay as much time as possible, and delay until Wang Zheng reproduces the legend, Lin Yu also specially adjusted the configuration of the third line.
