Through the gap in the city wall in front of him, He Cheng could faintly see the enemy cavalry galloping back and forth outside the city, but unfortunately the sky had begun to gradually darken at this time, so he couldn't see how many enemies there were for a while. I could only hear the sound of horses' hooves.

"Flares!"

As one of the officers yelled, a flare was fired, and as the flare continued to glow from the sky, the enemy cavalry could be roughly seen.

"Just a few hundred cavalry! Fire at me and repel them! ”

He Cheng's company commander saw that there were not many enemy cavalry, and immediately ordered.

So He Cheng and the others leaned out of the gap in the city wall one after another, and opened fire on the enemy cavalry outside, and even the only heavy machine gun in their company was moved over and joined the battle.

Compared to He Cheng's single-shot rifle that needed to re-pull the bolt to reload after a shot, the rate of fire of this machine gun was much faster, and in a burst of gunfire, those bullets swept towards those enemy cavalry like a flaming whip, and it was difficult to avoid the strafing of machine gun fire no matter how fast they ran.

It's a pity that because the rate of fire of these machine guns is too fast, there are not many of them in the troops, otherwise the bullets of this machine gun alone are estimated to be loaded with dozens of cars to barely be enough.

As soon as He Cheng fired a bullet from his side, someone from the cavalry on the opposite side shot an arrow at him, but fortunately, the steel plate armor on his body was strong enough, and the arrow hit his chest and only splashed a little spark before it was bounced away.

Perhaps it was also discovered that it was difficult to break the defense of the soldiers of the Blue Dragon Empire with their unprofessional long-range attack methods, so after being shot and killed dozens of horsemen, the enemy cavalry quickly retreated.

Because the sky was getting darker and darker, after repelling the enemy cavalry, in order to avoid being ambushed by the enemy army in the middle of the way, there was no order to pursue it. Instead, let He Cheng and the soldiers go back to rest.

So He Cheng and the others quickly returned to the fire, and continued to eat dinner while roasting the fire.

After eating and drinking, He Cheng was ready to sleep.

As a result, they had just cleaned up a house in the city, when the sound of horses' hooves came to their ears again.

At this time, the sky had completely darkened, and the temperature had become even colder, and He Cheng and the others did not expect that the enemy would attack again at such a time.

However, Ye Tianlong felt that the enemy should have specially chosen this time to attack.

During the tentative attack in the evening, the enemy must have tested the replacement of his firearms, and the firepower was more fierce than before.

Therefore, in order to weaken their own firepower advantage as much as possible, they deliberately chose to attack again after the night was completely dark.

In this case, even if you can constantly fire flares to illuminate it, the soldiers' vision will definitely not be as clear as it is during the day, which gives the opponent a chance to get close to your own soldiers.

If Ye Tianlong didn't guess wrong, this time the other party would definitely send a lot of troops, and he would not only send a few hundred people like the last tentative attack.

Facts have proved that Ye Tianlong did not guess wrong, the enemy army sent tens of thousands of horses this time, including cavalry, there are also a lot of infantry and crossbowmen, and there are even some firearms equipped with muskets and artillery.

However, the Svadia Kingdom has obviously not made great progress in terms of firearms like Ye Tianlong, and still uses the same arquebuses as before, these arquebuses are not only far inferior in range and accuracy to the rifles of the soldiers of the Blue Dragon Empire, but also much worse in terms of lethality, unless they hit the weak point of the armor, otherwise they will not be able to penetrate the steel plate armor on the soldiers of the Blue Dragon Empire.

He Cheng, under the leadership of the company commander, came to a defensive position that the sappers had built with dirt and gravel not long ago, and leaned on his stomach behind the low mound of dirt, holding rifles in both hands, poking his head out to observe the enemy's situation.

As a result, he found that there were so many enemies coming this time, and he didn't know which one to hit first for a while.

Soon, however, a cannon shot relieved him from his shock, and he quickly locked onto an enemy who looked closest to their line and pulled the trigger of his rifle.

Unfortunately, due to the poor vision at night, He Cheng's shot missed, so he could only pull the bolt, quickly reload the ammunition, and aim at the enemy again.

This time, He Cheng did not shoot immediately, but first observed the enemy's advance route and predicted the enemy's possible next direction before pulling the trigger again.

After a thud of gunshots, the enemy's body staggered, and even the two-handed greatsword he was carrying fell to the ground.

Just when He Cheng thought that he had successfully shot the enemy, the other party quickly stabilized his body again, and then picked up the two-handed big sword from the ground again, and continued to rush towards He Cheng's defense line.

After He Cheng saw this scene, he was slightly stunned and quickly reacted, this should be the demonic and beast warriors that the instructors mentioned to them, these guys' vitality is far stronger than ordinary human soldiers.

After knowing that the other party might be a monster like a demonized person or a beastified person, He Cheng specially aimed at the opponent's head this time, after all, even those demonized and beastified warriors, as long as their strength did not break through to the second order, their heads were still critical, and if their heads were blown up, there was a high probability that they would die.

After another gunshot, the enemy's helmet was directly knocked away by He Cheng's shot, and half of his Heavenly Spirit Cover was also shattered by a powerful rifle bullet, and He Cheng could see the opponent's brain splattering out of the wound from a distance.

The shot obviously really dealt a heavy blow to the enemy, and the burly figure of the opponent shook for a moment before falling to the ground, and although he twitched a few times from time to time, it was obvious that he could not get up again and charge.

Dong Lian, the company commander who happened to see He Cheng's outstanding performance on the side, immediately patted He Cheng's shoulder and praised: "You kid is really good!" This is the first time I went to the battlefield, and I calmed down so quickly, and I fully brought out the excellent marksmanship I practiced during training! I think you have a talent for being a sniper! ”

In the face of the company commander's praise, He Cheng looked a little embarrassed, but then he secretly observed other comrades-in-arms, and found that those recruits in the same period as him did seem to be far inferior to themselves, and some even hid behind the earthen wall, and without looking at it, they poked their rifles out of the wall and fired indiscriminately, as if they were afraid of being hit by the enemy's long-range fire.

But in fact, according to He Cheng's observation, most of the enemy's long-range weapons such as bows and crossbows could not break the defense of the steel plate armor on their bodies, only those arquebuses and some heavy javelins and other weapons could break the defense, but the number of arquebuses in this is small, the accuracy is poor, and the chance of being hit is also very small. The other heavy javelin also had a range of less than a hundred meters, and almost no enemy was able to successfully rush to within a hundred meters in the face of their own powerful firepower.

Therefore, the soldiers who hid behind the earthen wall and did not dare to poke their heads out to aim and shoot were purely a bit unfounded.

Fortunately, in addition to these recruits, there are some veterans in each company, and the heavy machine guns are all controlled by veterans. Under the ferocious fire of the heavy machine guns, the enemy soldiers fell in pieces.

In addition, there are more artillery in the rear, and they are constantly firing shells at the enemy who emerge from the night, although the accuracy has decreased a lot because the light is not very good at night, but under the continuous bombardment of enough shells, nearly half of the enemy was directly killed, and what He Cheng and their infantry need to deal with is the remaining half.

Ye Tianlong was also on one of the artillery positions at this time, commanding several heavy artillery pieces beside him, focusing on attacking the enemy's cavalry units.

After all, he also knew that there were many recruits in his troops this time who did not have any combat experience, and the cavalry thing was a great deterrent for the recruits.

Therefore, in order to prevent those recruits from being frightened and collapsed in the face of the charge of the enemy's heavy cavalry, Ye Tianlong specially asked the artillery to concentrate fire and bombard the enemy's cavalry.

Under the bombardment of these heavy artillery, the enemy's cavalry did suffer heavy losses, and the few remaining cavalry could not form an amazing group charge, and most of them were shot by heavy machine guns later, and there was no chance to rush in front of their own defense line.

Ye Tianlong observed it with a telescope and found that after those enemy cavalry were almost wiped out, although the remaining infantry continued to charge without fear of death, due to the thick snow, the charging speed of these infantry was not fast at all, and they were basically solved by the veterans under his command with rifles and grenades before rushing to the position.

However, just when Ye Tianlong felt that the overall situation had been decided, there was a sudden scream from behind. Ye Tianlong turned around and looked at it, and found that he didn't know when, at some point in the central square of Nadeqiosburg, a group of enemies appeared, and his own soldiers were caught off guard, and they were attacked by these guys from the rear, and there was some chaos.

After handing over the command of the front line to Luo Chenguang, Ye Tianlong quickly rushed to the rear with his eyebrow knife, preparing to go there to command the soldiers to destroy the enemies who emerged from the central square.

As the distance narrowed, Ye Tianlong had already seen the appearance of several enemies clearly, and he found that those enemies had a lot of characteristics of rat creatures, and the talent of rats to burrow was very strong.

This also made Ye Tianlong quickly understand that the enemy should dig a tunnel and appear there to raid his rear, but he doesn't know if there are second-class masters among those enemies who come through the tunnel, if so, it is still difficult to fight with his strength.

However, Ye Tianlong also noticed that masters such as Shi Wengong, Lin Chong and Yang Zhi were also rushing here, and when the time came, if there were really second-order masters, he would avoid them and leave them to the generals under him to deal with.

At this time, Ye Tianlong had already rushed to a nearby place not far in front of an enemy, the beast soldier had a mouse head, and a pair of well-developed front teeth in his mouth were so long that his lips came out, looking slightly yellow, very disgusting.

At this time, the opponent held a two-handed scimitar and was about to slash at one of his soldiers who was responsible for carrying ammunition.

Seeing this, the soldier wanted to throw away the heavy ammunition box on his body to defend himself, but unfortunately the enemy was moving too fast, and before he could drop the ammunition box, the scimitar was already almost slashing at his neck.
