44. We are not a bad seed
……
The small Suoyun Pass caused heavy casualties to the Chu army, and even the shield car that he had finally come up with could not break through the firearms offensive, which finally made Fa Ying lose his due rationality.
With his order, tens of thousands of Chu troops shouted and launched a general attack on Suoyun Pass.
Helplessly, because of the special terrain, the strength of the army could not be dispersed, and when they rushed to the gap in the city wall, they encountered stubborn resistance from the non-commissioned officers.
Round after round of firecrackers, taking away the lives of countless Chu soldiers, only one morning's effort, in front of Suoyun Pass, the corpses of Chu soldiers were lying all over the place, stacked into a hill, seriously hindering the advance of the follow-up troops.
"Who is guarding the gate? Why is it so tenacious? ”
Seeing that the situation evolved more and more out of his original prediction, Fa Ying's face was more solemn than ever.
In his impression, no matter how strong the Shu army is, most of the local armies left in the south of Shu are some local armies, and all the elites have been transferred to the west to defend Bo Su, even if there are such firearms, the will to fight cannot be so strong.
However, the tenacity of the defenders of Suoyun Pass was completely beyond his cognition, and it was completely different from the Shu army he knew.
Suddenly, he thought of a possibility: "Could it be that it is Liu Ce's Northern Army troops who are guarding Suoyun Pass?" ”
But soon, Fa Ying vetoed this possibility, if this is the case, the Han army can completely bypass the Yangtze River and pose a huge threat to Shu, and it is impossible for him to obtain Yongzhou so smoothly.
After thinking about it, Fa Ying couldn't get the result he wanted, so he could only take off the lock cloud pass first and then make calculations.
So far, his second-step plan can be said to be a complete failure, is the Chu army too weak, or the Shu army too strong?
This answer is impossible for Fa Ying to judge right now......
"Kill~~"
"Put~"
"Bang ......"
The fierce battle in front of the Suoyun Pass continued, and as the sound of the bronze whistle that fired the fire bolt continued to sound, the smoke of gunpowder filled the entire pass in an instant.
"Bang~"
Suddenly, a non-commissioned officer of the Han army was dumbfounded when he pulled the trigger, and just as he was about to tighten the shrapnel of the dragon head and prepare to reissue it, a spearman of the Chu army pounced on him with a hideous face.
"Day!"
The non-commissioned officer reacted quickly, smashing the butt of his rifle into the enemy's chest as he sideways avoided the stabbing spear.
The spearmen lost their balance and staggered down the notched slope, but two more pikemen rushed up......
"Bang~"
At the critical moment, a gunshot rang out, and Sun Xueyou, who was hiding in the corner, decisively fired a gun to solve one of them.
"Hey~"
The non-commissioned officer of the Han army immediately used all his strength to sweep the fire gun, directly smashing the cheek of the other spearman alive, and then drew the ring head knife from his waist and engaged in hand-to-hand combat with another enemy who was close to him.
Gradually, as the number of Chu troops crowded at the gap increased, the advantage of firearms was suppressed to the lowest at this moment, and the non-commissioned officers of the Han army threw down their firearms, drew their ring-headed knives, and began to block the enemy's approach with their flesh and blood.
The whole gap was a mess, and the sound of metal intertwining, and the clatter of blades breaking through the body intertwined, creating a cruel music.
"Ahh
"Drink~"
A Han non-commissioned officer was held to his breastplate by four or five spears, and his body retreated uncontrollably as the spearmen worked in unison.
Knowing that if he fell, he would be a burden on his companions, so the non-commissioned officer roared, then clamped two spears under his armpits, and grasped the grenade hanging from his waist with the other hand, his eyes full of determination.
"Boom~"
With a loud bang, the non-commissioned officer and five spearmen went to the Yellow Springs together in a cloud of debris and debris.
"Tiger Cannon, give me a fight!"
Wang Chang's eyes were red at the moment, looking at the enemy crowded at the broken wall of the gap, and immediately ordered the gunners to aim all the Huzun cannons at them.
But the gunner did not light the fuse at this time, because there were still his companions fighting the enemy in the gap, and firing at this time would definitely hurt them.
Wang Chang was furious: "What are you doing? Fire! Didn't you hear me when I told you to shoot? ”
The gunner said: "No! There are our brothers in the gap, and this will hurt them! ”
Wang Chang grabbed the gunner's shirt and shouted heartbreakingly: "If we don't plug the enemy in the gap now, none of us will be able to get out of here alive, open fire immediately, open fire!" ”
As he spoke, he took the Tiger Zun cannon and aimed the muzzle at the gap and broken wall.
But when he was really ready to open fire, he hesitated in his heart, but it was his companions who got along with the enemy day and night on the broken wall, could he really bear it?
"Lao Wang! Fire! Can't stop it, hurry! ”
"Rub what! Fire! ”
"Lao Tzu is in pain, hurry up and let Lao Tzu be free! Fire! ”
At this moment, the voices of companions came from the broken wall one after another, and each shouted loudly for Wang Chang to hurry up and fire.
Wang Chang's eyes moistened, clamped the Tiger Venerable Cannon tightly, and finally let out a roar, igniting the fuse.
"Bang ......"
With a muffled sound, pieces of scattered bullets spread out in front of the broken wall, and pieces of blood mist bloomed, accompanied by heart-rending screams that echoed in front of the gate.
"Bang ......"
Immediately afterwards, the remaining Tiger Venerable cannons also poured their anger in front of the broken wall, forming a fan-shaped offensive that covered all the gaps in the broken wall.
In the blink of an eye, the heavens and the earth seemed to be quiet.
The twelve Han non-commissioned officers chose to sacrifice themselves and die with the enemy......
Wang Chang sat on the ground weakly, staring at the gap with a pair of eyes: "I'm waiting for Lao Tzu on Huangquan Road, and I'll serve you in the next life." ”
However, after only a moment's effort, the Chu army shouted again and rushed towards the gap.
Wang Chang sighed and looked up at the sky: "I tried my best." ”
Then he took a deep breath, pulled out the ring head knife sharply, and roared: "Brothers, fight with them!" Eighteen years later, it's another man! ”
"Drink~~"
The remaining 270 non-commissioned officers drew their swords in unison, quickly formed a formation, and made an offensive posture.
"Woo~~"
At this moment, a loud horn echoed in the air.
Wang Chang frowned, and instinctively turned around.
"Kill~~"
saw Zhu Xuan closing the door from behind him, holding up a long lance, and rushing over with grinning teeth.
"Lao Tzu is not a bad seed!"
Immediately afterwards, behind Zhu Xuan, there was a heart-rending roar of Zhu Tong holding a golden gourd hammer.
"It's not a bad seed!"
Soon, behind them, countless figures emerged, densely rushing into the Suoyun Pass, and killing the approaching Chu army.
Some of them are officers and soldiers, some are errand soldiers, some are just ordinary young and strong, and even some officials in official uniforms are desperate to come to Suoyun Pass at this time.
Wang Chang and Sun Xueyou breathed a sigh of relief, half a month's persistence was not in vain, and the reinforcements finally came.
"Gua babies, you are all good, leave it to us now, hurry up and go down and rest!"
When Zhu Tong passed by Wang Chang's side, he gave him an instruction, and then took the lead and crashed into the Chu army formation.
The Chu army, whose nerves were already on the verge of collapse, completely lost the last trace of fighting spirit when they saw the arrival of reinforcements, and fled out of the gap like crazy.
