……

"General Zhang, Dongyi's firearms are extremely sharp, and they can block the sons and daughters from a distance of two miles, do you really want to continue to rush?"

"Keep rushing! In any case, it is necessary to rush into the enemy's fortifications, and if the troops are withdrawn, their morale will be weakened, and even a million soldiers will not be able to win the war. ”

"Alas~"

Gultai sighed, watching the soldiers of the Ruijian battalion fall meaninglessly under the enemy's artillery rockets one by one, and his heart kept dripping blood.

And how can Zhang Gui not feel pain in his heart?

The Ruijian Battalion is the division of tigers and wolves that he has worked hard all his life and used all means to build, and it is the most elite army of Dajin.

They can be sacrificed, they can fall in hand-to-hand combat with the enemy, at least that death is worthwhile.

But now, in the face of never-before-seen methods of warfare, watching the fresh lives being scrapped like this by "strange tricks", Zhang Gui's uncomfortable teeth were bitten blood.

"Platoon shot killed!"

Bang bang –

In front of the Han army's iron net array, a burst of fire guns emitted blazing gunsmoke.

As the fiery serpent scurried, the sword and shield men in the front row of the Ascending Ruijian Camp fell to the ground like dominoes.

However, there were still soldiers of the Jin Army who were not afraid of death, holding cold knives and tiger guns, and roared up.

At this time, it was about two hundred and thirty steps away from the Han army's position.

The range and armor-piercing ability of the fire cap gun were even higher than Zhang Gui's estimate.

After the baptism of firearms, the battle formation formed by the four vanguard battalions had all been broken up at this time, and the crossbowmen behind had already been disrupted during the previous rocket rage.

However, at such a heavy cost of casualties, the Jin army still did not choose to retreat.

Based on this alone, Yue Shaomu had to give a high evaluation of this army: "The Jin army is not afraid of death, and its indomitable charging momentum can be called the country's heavy weapon, but it is a pity that this elite army is born with the wrong person, and it is a sadness to be born in a country that cannot be compared with its status." ”

"Uh~"

A Mini bullet pierced the double armor of a Sharp Battalion officer, and as he groaned softly, he collapsed limply in the way of the charge.

"Miko~~"

The middle-aged guard on the side hurriedly stepped forward to support him, and shouted heartbreakingly.

"Uncle...... I...... Cold ......"

"The third son cheers up, your mother is still waiting for you to go back, don't die, don't die~ If you are going to die, how can your uncle explain to your mother?"

Seeing that the officer's wound continued to bleed, the guards who were his relatives hugged him tightly.

However, the team officer finally convulsed all over his body and stopped breathing with a face full of unwillingness.

"Gou bastard! I'm fighting with you! ”

Seeing his nephew die on the battlefield, the guard's eyes suddenly turned red, and he grabbed a three-meter spear and rushed forward.

Suddenly, a cannonball fell from mid-air, just under his feet.

Rumble~~

The moment the grenade exploded, a huge wave of air directly cut the guard's waist into two sections.

When the guard's upper body hit the ground in an instant, he was already exhausted.

Boom Boom Boom Boom –

Seeing that the soldiers of the Jin Army were still rushing forward, the silent artillery array finally let out a series of life-threatening roars.

The grenades and solid bullets were fired cross-fired, and when they landed in the Jin Army's array, they suddenly turned into a burst of blood mist, which made people unable to find a suitable sense of direction.

Seeing this scene, Fu Ying and the other generals who were sitting in the rear were drenched in cold sweat.

Rao is he has been on the battlefield for a long time, and it is the first time he has seen such a tragic battlefield, and human life here is worse than grass mustard.

The officers and men of the other battalions were even more frightened and retreated one after another.

Five vanguard battalions, two thousand crossbowmen, that's a full seven thousand, and in less than half an hour, more than half of them were lost.

If you want to change yourself, I am afraid that if you lose about 5% of the number of people, your morale will collapse.

"Let the tigers continue to press the reserve soldiers and horses up, and they can't stop for a moment!"

"General Zhang! Do you still rush? Why do you want the soldiers of our Ruijian Camp to die in vain? ”

"The Ruijian camp can't defeat them, are you still going to count on those wine bags and rice bags!"

Zhang Gui's words suddenly woke up Gurtai.

Yes, the Ruijian Battalion is equipped with the best armor in South Australia, if this can't be conquered, who else can be counted on?

It's just that this way of filling in life......

He glanced back at the rest of the battalion soldiers, and all he saw was frightened, and some of them squatted directly on the ground and retched.

Do you count on them?

Scold......

Gurtai smiled contemptuously and waved his hand, and it was another 5,000 soldiers of the Ruijian Battalion who stepped onto the battlefield without hesitation.

On the Han army's side, Yue Shaomu's face was equally solemn.

The first wave of the enemy offensive had almost collapsed, but when he saw that thousands of soldiers had been sent from the rear of the Jin army to charge into battle, his brows tightened.

"Sun Zhong!"

"The subordinates are here!"

"How much gunpowder is left in the army?"

"Back to the general, there are still about 20 rounds of solid guns and howitzers in each artillery battalion, and there are still 20 rounds of ammunition left for each person, and there are only enough rockets to fire another salvo......"

Yue Shaomu closed his eyes and pondered, and then said: "Inform the generals at all levels, prepare for the worst, and be ready for a white-knuckle battle at any time!" ”

"Yes!"

……

By noon, the noise on the battlefield had gradually subsided.

As far as the eye could see, the corpses of the soldiers of the Ruijian Battalion were everywhere.

There were several soldiers who were lucky enough not to die, either with broken hands or feet, or covered in wounds, constantly wriggling on the ground, as if looking for cover.

In one morning, 6,000 soldiers of the Ruijian Battalion remained on the battlefield permanently, and most of the soldiers who returned to the battlefield were wounded, many of whom may be disabled for life, and many more were destined to not survive due to medical conditions.

The 30,000-strong Ruijian battalion suffered nearly one-third of the casualties at this time.

Zhang Gui, who was inspecting the camp, indifferently looked at the miserable condition of the wounded soldiers everywhere, as well as the heart-rending moans coming from the marching tent, and his mood suddenly fell to the bottom.

"Brothers, it's me Zhang Gui who is sorry for you!"

Zhang Gui didn't say a word, silently thought in his heart, and bowed to the wounded soldier.

After counting the casualties, Gurtai reported with a sad face: "General, the casualties of the brothers are too heavy!" ”

After finishing speaking, I couldn't help crying.

"Don't cry!"

Zhang Gui slapped him in the face: "As the chief general in the army, no matter how uncomfortable you are, you have to hold back in your heart, and your crying soldiers are even more discouraged." ”

Gurtai: "General Zhang, I don't understand, one morning, not a single soldier from the other battalions went up, and I watched our Ruijian battalion brothers go to death one by one!" It's not fair to us! ”

"Nothing is fair or unfair!" Zhang Gui roared, "Will the enemy on the battlefield tell you fairness!? How can there be no immortal in war! ”

Gultai: "But I just don't accept it!" Why don't they go and let us die? His Fu family has been favored by the emperor for generations, why can they shrink behind!

And last time, Fukang didn't lose the battle, but let Cao Ying bear the blame, although I Guertai is a local nobleman, but I can't see this kind of behavior! ”

"Shut up! Don't talk nonsense! Zhang Gui shouted sharply, "After lunch, continue to attack, no matter what, we must take Lucheng as soon as possible!" ”

"I'm going to go up! General Zhang! Do you really have to fight the brothers out! ”

"Raising soldiers for a thousand days and using soldiers for a while, I now understand a sentence, if you fall behind, you will be beaten, Dongyi...... No, the armies of the Han Dynasty are far ahead of us,

There is no other way to do this than to fill in with your life......"
