Volume 1 Chapter 372 Xu Rong's Death
On the far position of "killing", there is a swarm of soldiers.
With the order to "shoot", the rain of arrows poured down, and several soldiers who rushed forward screamed, and the long arrows pierced deeply into the body, and these people covered their wounds and fell to the ground, convulsing violently.
A long arrow shot at a captain, who was wearing leather armor and subconsciously wanted to dodge, but the arrow had a "poof" sound, pierced through his chest, and pierced out with a "puff" in the back, and a large puddle of blood stained the faces of several soldiers behind him red......
Looking at the team that fell screaming, a ground non-commissioned officer withdrew the crossbow, but at this time he didn't allow much thought, and after shooting, he immediately handed the crossbow to the back, and a crossbow that had been filled with five rounds was handed up again, and he aimed steadily at an enemy soldier covered by a shield, and listened to the command voice: "Shoot"
In an instant, a crossbow arrow passed through the shield, and a blood mist splashed, and the man fell.
The fortress is a kind of ancient fortress, the city fortress from a convex polygon into a concave polygon, such an improvement, so that no matter the attack on the castle at any point, the attacking side will be exposed to crossfire, in the Kangxi period, there were hundreds of Russian mercenaries, resisting tens of thousands of Manchu troops to besiege the record for more than half a year.
However, it would be ridiculous if there were superstitious people who moved it to ancient times without knowing the essence of the Tao
Ye Qing understood this very well, the essence of the record of that fortress was that at that time, the Russian soldiers had popularized muskets, and when defending the city, whether it was night or day, at any time, there was no need for physical strength to fight - it was not necessary to pull the trigger or light the fire rope
In ancient times, just archers or spearmen would still consume physical strength, and once the physical strength was consumed, no matter how strong the castle was, it would be the same as waste.
However, this is understood, so in this small fortress, there are hundreds of crossbows and a large number of crossbow arrows, and such a rotation of crossbows has achieved an effect close to that of a musket with the conditions of ancient techniques.
On the hillside, another forty or so enemy soldiers fell down screaming, and the elite armor of the enemy army, almost swept away, were knocked to the ground one by one screaming.
Finally, hundreds of enemy soldiers, unable to hold back any longer, reflexively fled backwards
There was silence at first, then loud cheers.
Zhao Yun looked at the hillside, and there were corpses everywhere, and about five hundred enemy soldiers had died on the hillside forever.
At this time, a non-commissioned officer approached and whispered: "My lord, the crossbow has been broken twenty-three, and there are not many arrows, I am afraid that I can resist it once."
Zhao Yun nodded, touched the spear, and ordered: "Armor piercing, holding a gun"
"Yes" the non-commissioned officer responded, but with a hint of hidden uneasiness, once the crossbow is lost, assassinate the enemy with the strength of the flesh, then in just a few hours, the physical strength of a hundred people will be exhausted, and the castle will be broken......
The trees and weeds on the entire hillside had long been cleared so that the line of sight was clear, and Xu Rong's face was pale, but he did not give the order to pull out the defeated soldiers and behead them.
After fighting for a day and a night, 500 people died, and the morale was already very low, and if he continued to force it, even if he used his own ability, he was afraid that he would cause a mutiny.
"General, I don't believe it, the enemy still has crossbows, let me rush again," a fierce general stepped forward and asked for his life.
Xu Rong didn't believe it either, and out of self-consciousness, he also felt that the enemy had reached the point of despair.
At this moment, there was a sudden horn, and a horse galloped over and rolled over: "General, it's not good, there is an enemy army ten miles away, it's cavalry"
"What?" Xu Rong turned around and looked over, only to see a red cavalry rolling over on the horizon, and immediately hurriedly shouted: "The whole team, the whole battalion, prevent a surprise attack"
It's just from a distance, Ye Qing has no intention of raiding, Xu Rong is a famous general, it is difficult to succeed in a raid, and compared to Zhao Yun, the queen mother, and the value of his own non-commissioned officer, he will rescue first
With the sound of horses' hooves like thunder, the cavalry arrived five miles away, gradually stopped, and began to form a group.
The so-called Mercedes-Benz maintains the array, this is just a joke, no one in this world can, look at the situation in front, there is a bias to shout the order: "Arrange and prepare"
There was a "whoosh" sound, and the cavalry found their place and quickly lined up.
Ye Qing looked at it with great satisfaction, now the cavalry is all red leather armor, with iron helmets, equipped with long knives, as for the saddle and hooves that the traverser should have, he has already had a spear.
It was just a thousand cavalry, lined up in a phalanx, the wind was blowing, the red flag of the Chinese army was boiling, and the Red German military spirit was permeating it.
Ye Qing took out his long sword and shouted: "The whole army is ready"
Suddenly, in the array, orders were handed down one after another.
Ye Qing ordered again: "Drumming"
"Knock"
The big drum sounded, and the sound of the thick drum immediately spread throughout the four fields, shocking people's hearts.
When the third sound of "dong", Ye Qing ordered: "Forward"
The horses were the first to go, and then the cavalry followed, and the thunderous sound of horses' hooves made the earth tremble.
Xu Rong watched the cavalry charge, and he still had a few minutes to think.
Historically, Xu Rong defeated Sun Jian and Cao Cao, although Cao Cao and Sun Jian were not famous generals at that time, the soldiers were newly recruited recruits, and the troops were small, and Xu Rong led the Xiliang Force, but it can also be seen that his qualifications.
As soon as I saw the cavalry this time, I knew that the road was not good, I had 2,000 Xiliang cavalry, but I folded 500, only 1,000, and the gap between me and the other party was not big, and more importantly, my morale was low.
When it comes to the right way of the art of war, because it is a siege battle, although the soldiers are tired, but the horsepower is rested, it is still too late to stay away at this time, but it is difficult to make a decision to flee without a fight.
Suddenly, Xu Rong's eyes were red, and he drew his sword: "Kill, kill"
With an order, the Xiliang cavalry was well-trained and well-trained, and although their morale was a little low, they still responded.
Xu Rong made a decision, and immediately did not hesitate, rode his horse first, and shouted loudly: "Kill all the enemies, my Xiliang cavalry is invincible"
All the Xiliang cavalry shouted in response: "Kill"
"Kill"
"Help the Han family, calm the troubled times, and kill" Liu Jiajun on the other side also shouted, Liu Bei's clone has tried his best to cultivate this kind of thinking in the past few years.
"Boom" smoke and dust billowed out, and the iron hooves of the cavalry on both sides struck heavily on the ground, and in the blink of an eye, the two horsemen staggered and collided violently.
In the moment before the collision, a red light appeared in Ye Qing's hand, and when he saw the two hundred riders in front of him, he suddenly felt a shock all over his body, and he was vigorously blessed with it.
In a few short minutes, his agility, physical strength, and fighting spirit increased greatly, and he drew his spear and threw it at the enemy formation.
Although the two hundred short spears of "poof" are not as far as far, they can break through the heavy armor at close range, and this fall, hundreds of Xiliang cavalry in front of them suddenly screamed.
The short spear instantly tore through the leather armor and pierced into the body, and the blood suddenly turned into blood arrows and spurted out, and they fell backwards from their horses screaming.
Then, the real first wave of collision, and many people fell on both sides in an instant.
"Kill" one by one, the Xiliang cavalry roared and charged, without fear, and rushed up with the courage to fight to the death.
"Cheating again" Ye Qing thought like this, in terms of truth, the Xiliang cavalry, which had been fighting for a long time, never had this kind of toughness, but now they didn't care about it.
Where the long sword went, streams of blood mist emanated from all around.
Some of the Xiliang cavalry opened their mouths and roared, but they couldn't make a sound, tumbling and falling, followed by the dull crash of the war horses, and the screams.
Xu Rong held the spear, his legs tightly held the horse's belly, roared and charged, and in a blink of an eye, he met Ye Qing, the scale of both sides was not large, both were about a thousand, and they were encountered in the first wave.
In an instant, the two sides were less than ten meters apart, and they could see the expressions of each other.
In an instant, Xu Rong saw Ye Qing, with a red tassel on his iron helmet, wearing iron armor, his face was expressionless, and his expression was even a little calm.
"Kill" Xu Rong shouted, and the spear in his hand stabbed out.
The two horses intersected, the sword light flashed, and between the lightning and the stone and fire, Xu Rong's body moved, his spear was opened, and a sword qi stabbed through his arm, bringing out a stream of blood mist, almost coming out of his body.
The brutality of the cavalry duel far exceeded that of the infantry, and the difference was that it was dead to the ground.
Xu Rong has been fighting on the battlefield for more than ten years, and his battlefield fighting skills are indeed extraordinary, but the martial arts of the general on the opposite side are even more terrifying, and before he has time to think about it, he sees that the opposite side suddenly jumps out immediately.
"No, it's impossible" Xu Rong was shocked in his heart, the enemy general was covered in armor and could jump into the air, this kind of martial arts had never been seen before, and a sword had stabbed over.
At the moment of life and death, Xu Rong shouted, and the spear was square.
It's just a flash of lightning, only the slightest difference, but there is no grid, the enemy general has already pounced in, only to hear the sound of "poof", a sword stabbed in.
The thick iron armor couldn't resist at all, it broke through in an instant, and it came out of the body, and even exposed a section behind Xu Rong, and suddenly blood rain sprayed.
Xu Rong only felt that the strength in his body was drained, and he couldn't help but smile miserably, and he didn't even scream, so he rolled down the horse.
Seeing this, several Xiliang cavalry roared angrily, but they only had time to shout, the sword light flashed, and the throat of four or five Xiliang cavalry was cold, and the blood fountain on the neck spurted out
"Kill, kill all the enemies and leave no one behind" Ye Qing roared angrily, it is unlikely that these Xiliang cavalry will surrender, even so, they will kill everything.
As for the death of Xu Rong, which led to the mourning of the Xiliang cavalry, Ye Qing sneered at the so-called mourning soldiers.
The mourning army will win, so what do you need an army for?
castle
Zhao Yun saw the following two cavalry killing, one of the generals was his lord, only saw the lord in the army, only holding a sword, rushing back and forth, everywhere he went, no one was the enemy, his heart was terrified, and he secretly thought: "I thought that the lord was benevolent and virtuous, and I didn't want my martial arts to be so powerful." ”
"Although I am proud of my sword, spear and bow skills, and I am confident that I can rush back and forth in a thousand armies, the lord is not under me" Thinking of these, he looked at the soldiers who were covered in bruises on his side, and suddenly shouted: "Sons, the lord is fighting below, let's greet the lord"
As he spoke, he ordered the door to be opened, and in a moment, hundreds of horsemen galloped down and rushed up.
