Chapter 76: The Battle of Surprise Attack
When the fire met the wine, it burned quickly, and there was no time for people to react, and the soldiers could not immediately extinguish the flames when they were contaminated with the fire, and the cries for help suddenly rang out.
Once alcohol catches fire, the flame will be very sticky and cannot be extinguished naturally in a short period of time. Qiao Wei immediately called Youye, "Go find the sand, lie down and roll!" ”
After the alcohol fire, the fastest way is to isolate the fire from oxygen by rolling or sand, and then quickly take off the clothes contaminated with alcohol, put it in a ventilated place, let the alcohol evaporate quickly, and then rinse with water.
But on the battlefield, all conditions are limited.
The soldiers under the city wall were still lighting the jar on fire, Qiao Wei saw the opportunity, and skillfully wound the crossbow and shot directly through the jar, and the fire source fell on the enemy's own body, and the fire quickly ignited.
Zhou Tai also immediately organized crossbowmen to intercept and shoot at the light cavalry under the city wall, Gan Ning's hands were fast, and he could even catch the iron pot with his bare hands, and then directly drop the city tower.
Youye escorted Qiao Wei down to the city, "Madam, the battlefield is dangerous, let's go down to the city tower first." ”
Qiao Wei pushed Youye away, "I can walk and hide alone, and I can protect myself, you go and protect your son." ”
Youye helped Qiao Wei, "Gongzi has already said that the duty of his subordinates is to protect his wife, and there is Youye by his side, and after his subordinates send his wife back to the camp, he will come back to protect Gongzi." ”
You Ye's strength was much greater than Qiao Wei's, he directly dragged Qiao Wei's arm, leaned sideways and blocked the direction of the enemy with his back, in case there were arrows and flames that would hurt Qiao Wei, "Madame, go quickly!" Don't stay! ”
Qiao Wei didn't pretend anymore, she half-bent down and quickly went down the city tower along the stone stairs of the city wall, she didn't know how to fight, and she couldn't help them on the battlefield, so she could only protect herself and avoid Sun Quan's worries.
Chen Su's attack was much faster than expected, and it did catch the Jiangdong army off guard, but fortunately, Sun Quan commanded in time and mobilized his shield to quickly go up to the city wall, which was still able to deal with it.
The shield is isolated from fire, and the alcohol content in ancient times is not high, and the durability of burning is not enough, coupled with Sun Quan's timely dispatch, after a short period of panic, the Jiangdong army was still able to reorganize.
The shield team was at the front, responsible for blocking the fire pots and arrows, the middle row were the crossbowmen and archers, who took turns shooting arrows towards the city, and finally the backup soldiers, who were responsible for supplying arrows, stones, and spears.
Chen Su and Zhao Cheng soon discovered that something was wrong, the Jiangdong Army's bows and crossbows were so powerful, the speed at which they could replace arrows tended to be none, and the three hundred light horsemen did not play the advantage he expected at all.
The generals on the front line came back and reported, "Childe, the light cavalry has suffered heavy casualties, please withdraw!" ”
The three hundred light horsemen have only been killed and injured for a moment, and if they continue, I am afraid that they will all go and have no return.
"Rush the car and attack the city with all your might! Archers step forward! ”
The car is both a tool for attacking, but also for the armor, is a necessity for the siege of the city, with 24 people as a unit, to push the car forward, there is a wooden crash to hit the city gate, and the ladder can be equipped to climb the city wall.
After receiving Sun Quan's order, the military commander immediately changed the command flag and gave the order, "Go to the stone!" ”
The crossbow team and some of the shieldmen retreated, and the reserve team stepped forward, one in groups of two, one with a spear to attack the soldiers who were going up the ladder, and the other to move stones and smash them into the ladder.
The shouts and killings outside the city shook the sky, mixed with the sound of crying and screaming, and the sound of death was approaching again, Qiao Wei stood in front of the camp tent, holding his breath.
The crashing wood against the city gate made a loud noise, and it also hit Qiao Wei's heart one after another. The closer he got to the battlefield, the more Qiao Wei could feel the panic of dying on the verge of life and death.
Even the stench of blood filled the air, and from time to time several corpses fell from the city walls, slamming them into the ground, raising a puff of dust and then returning to death.
The soldiers brought three logs and pressed them against the city gate, and behind the gate were placed ground thorns, and dozens of crossbow teams and swordsmen were also waiting for them.
The roar outside the door contrasted sharply with the dead silence inside the door, and this dead silence was like a pair of invisible hands, clenching everyone's throat.
The latches on the gates were deformed, the logs were receding, and the soldiers who held on to it let out a roar every time the gate was struck.
But in the end, they were unable to hit the wood, the log fell, and the soldiers rushed in.
"Archery!" The commander of the fifty gave the order, and the arrows were fired rapidly, and the soldiers in the front row fell in response, and the soldiers in the back row continued to rush up, raising their knives and slashing and slashing.
Qiao Wei turned the Karakuri repeater into a salvo mode, ready to meet at any time. Zhang Ge also took out the sword at his waist and blocked it in front of Qiao Wei, "Madame, let's go into the tent, my subordinates will protect Madame for Gongzi." ”
Qiao Wei looked at the young man who was already about the same size as himself, his face was dark and immature, but his eyes were very resolute.
"You're not afraid?"
"Don't be afraid." Zhang Ge replied.
The enemy soldiers rushed forward repeatedly, trying to move the ground thorn away, so that the rushing car could smoothly rush into the barracks, and Qiao Wei was able to see clearly that the front and upper baffles were also equipped on the rushing car to hide and protect a certain number of rushing soldiers.
But the so-called front windshield of the rushing car only considered the situation of the upper body, Qiao Wei aimed at the exposed leg under the baffle, pulled the trigger and shot an arrow.
I saw the soldier scream, fell to the ground, and knocked down other people behind him, and the car lost the power to push and was forced to stop.
Zhang Ge immediately followed suit, seizing the opportunity to shoot arrows at the enemy's rushing soldiers, trying to disrupt the opponent's deployment and position.
It is said that raising soldiers for a thousand days and using soldiers for a while, this is true, on weekdays, the soldiers are boring to practice all kinds of slashing, picking and other martial arts skills, but also to practice all kinds of battle formations day after day, boring, boring can not see any use.
But only when you go to the battlefield will you understand that the situation on the battlefield is changing rapidly, and in addition to martial arts, you can also see who can resist the test of the battlefield without messing up the battle formation.
Once the formation is chaotic, it will not only affect the strength of the battle, but also the morale of the soldiers during the battle. If the two armies are in a war, if they lose their faith and determination to win, then the division of victory and defeat is only a matter of respite.
More and more soldiers poured into the city gate, and they gradually killed in front of Qiao Wei, Emei stabbing from the inside out, with the tic-tac-toe octagonal footwork, picking points through the enemy's body, and reflexively kicking people out.
And the blood gushing out of the carotid artery sprayed Qiao Wei's face, she didn't have time to wipe it, her right foot stepped to the left side, the kickback was tied, the palm of her hand was facing up and she sat down, blocking the enemy's sword, turning the stabbing spiral, and the sword immediately took off her hand. Qiao Wei made a move with his left hand and directly pierced the opponent's throat.
Zhang Ge was stunned for a while, he knew that his wife had martial arts, but he didn't know that he was so exquisite, and he didn't lose to the men in the army at all.
Just as he was distracted, Qiao Wei pulled him over, protected him behind him, and scratched the arm of the enemy soldier with his backhand, "Didn't you say you weren't afraid?" Stunned for what! ”
