Chapter 406: Meat Grinder (Three Watches)
After Hou Bufan agreed with them to attack time, he came to Liu Zhan's forward position and guarded near the palace alone.
At dawn the next day, shortly after the enemy soldiers got up, they assumed an attacking posture, which frightened the scouts to hurry back and report.
There are still about 200,000 defenders in Time City, but they are all relatively scattered, and even if they don't have secret weapons, they can be stormed.
As the old saying goes, if you kill a thousand enemies, you will injure yourself by 800! There is a better way to destroy the enemy, and who is willing to exchange his brother's life for it.
As soon as eight o'clock arrived, Liu Zhan's men and horses immediately broke through against the enemy army, and sent a large number of longbowmen and shield soldiers.
The enemy thought they were a tentative attack, and they also sent a unit to fight the real intentions of the other side.
The Zhan family army was very strange today, and did not charge, but kept shooting at each other with bows and arrows.
On the tower of the city far away, Shen Tu Zangdao didn't understand what the other party was going to do, and seeing that his own people were constantly being shot with bows and arrows, he immediately dispatched cavalry, trying to crush the other party.
The tragic battle situation here also alarmed the defenders of the imperial city, but False Moon Tianyuan asked them to stand still, waiting for news from the door master.
After Hou Bufan found that there was no movement inside, he quickly moved closer to the enemy's position.
The cavalry of Shentu Zangdao had now suffered heavy casualties, but there were still a large number of them, rushing into the positions of the Zhanjia army and beginning to strangle the infantry.
Liu Zhan waved the command flag in his hand, but the cavalry on the left flank rushed quickly, quickly cut off the opponent's attack formation, and began to encircle.
Both sides fought with real fire, and kept sending troops to try to fight each other's intentions, but at this time, dozens of people secretly came to Katyusha's side.
When the second wave of enemy attack forces rushed in, it secretly fired twenty carts of arrows under the cover of several thousand archers.
Although Shentu Zangdao saw the arrows in the sky, he thought that the other party had mobilized one or two thousand archers, so he immediately sent a large number of shield soldiers forward.
But far water can't save the close fire, and when these shield soldiers arrived, the first line of positions was full of dense bows and arrows, and even some defensive things were densely packed with arrows.
Hou Bufan hid in the shadows, and after seeing all this, he nodded with satisfaction, and immediately used his stealth to quickly rush towards the enemy's last line of defense.
The so-called defeat was like a mountain, and after the first line of defense was lost, Shentu Zangdao had a bad premonition, but now there is no way to escape, so he can only fight to the death.
Quickly rushed to the second line of defense, immediately gave the order to hold the position, and mobilized all the ranged troops to defend around the position.
Liu Zhan was not a fool either, he quickly sent people to occupy the first line of position, and used the corpses of the enemy to pile up a natural barrier in front.
"General, give the order! I want to retrieve the bodies of my brothers!"
"Please, the corpses of the brothers cannot be trampled on!"
Most of the people who were holding the second line of defense were red-eyed and begged him loudly.
"Brothers, brothers! This is the enemy's strategy, as soon as we get out of the position, we will be greeted with bows and arrows in the sky! If you really want to avenge them, stay on the ground, as long as they dare to approach us 500 meters, attack!"
His words really calmed down the commotion soldiers, and made Hou Bufan in the distance secretly admire this person.
"Since they can't hold each other, I'll give them a draw from the bottom of the kettle, see what you do!"
After making up his mind, he immediately bypassed the second line of defense and went to the last line of defense, and after carefully looking at the people around him, he decided to wait for the battle in front of him to make a move.
Liu Zhan was also very anxious now, worried that Hou Bufan would not be able to stop the guards of the palace alone, but the scout's words made him completely reassured.
After having no worries, he immediately let people push the secret weapon forward a little, still using archers to paralyze the other party.
When the enemy was in the trenches, their bows and arrows were much less lethal, but the more this happened, the stronger the anger in their hearts became, and finally someone couldn't help it, stood up, and was shot into a hedgehog in an instant.
After the shouting and killing sound sounded here, Hou Bufan also moved, quickly bypassed the national position, and went straight to the opponent's general headquarters.
There are indeed several generals in it, and he doesn't care who the other party is, as long as he has the opportunity, he will kill the other party.
After quickly killing a few people, there was no general inside, so in order not to let the other party find out, he let go of the guards at the door, and left here when the two were concerned about the battle ahead.
I wanted to hunt more generals and military cao, but I accidentally found that the right flank of the trench had a little bit of glitter.
When I looked closely, I found that it was the light reflected from the enemy's helmet, and immediately moved closer to that side.
After a rough count, there were at least 5,000 people here, and the weapons they held in their hands were also very strange, some like hook and sickle guns, but they were not.
"What are these people trying to do here? Oh, I understand! These people will quickly bypass the front and go straight to Grandpa Zhan's headquarters under the cover of chaos when the battle situation is at its most anxious! These weapons are specially designed to deal with the heavy hammer soldiers. ”
The enemy didn't know that it had been exposed, and when they were still nervously watching the battle situation in the second position, Hou Bufan had already circled around them, ready to cause them some trouble.
It was already noon, and the scorching eyes made it impossible to open one's eyes, but the enemy and the enemy kept shooting at each other, and neither of them charged.
When it was almost a little closer, the people in the first trench were a little unbearable, and the mountains of corpses were already flowing with a faint corpse water and emitting a disgusting smell of decay.
Liu Zhan knew that he couldn't wait any longer, so he immediately let the people on the left and right flanks charge, and personally appeared on the battlefield with heavy hammer soldiers.
Their actions were indeed responded to by the enemy, and Shen Tu Zangdao also personally led his subordinates and put on a posture of facing the battle.
Under the cover of the archers, Liu Zhan and the others were rapidly approaching the other party, while the Katyusha, who was latecomer, appeared on both flanks, and just when the opponent thought that he could attack, the overwhelming arrows instantly covered the entire second line of defense.
Many enemies didn't understand it, so they did it in a daze, and even Shentu Zang knife had an arrow stuck in it.
When the second line of defense collapsed, they had already failed, but their men were not willing to die like this, and desperately fled to the last line of defense.
At the most chaotic time, Hou Bufan appeared in the surprise attack, constantly harvesting this group of people.
"Leave some people to hold him back, and the others will come with me!
Hearing the enemy's words, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he accelerated the speed of swinging the double knives in his hand, and the chaotic battle knife technique really lived up to its name, becoming a small harvester on the battlefield.
After the sound of the 'boom' attack came out, Liu Zhan and the others also noticed it, and immediately led troops to intercept this group of people, and soon surrounded them.
Although Hou Bufan killed people very quickly, there were two hundred people surrounding him after all, and even if he was able to reach the sky, it was impossible to completely kill these people.
As the consumption increased, he was still wounded by the enemy in his back, but fortunately he avoided the vital points, and they were all skin wounds.
When the battle became more and more fierce, the outermost cavalry was shot by bows and arrows and killed several people, which did not arouse their alarm, and when Hou Bufan used his rapid speed, his position was already covered by bows and arrows.
"Nima, these crazy people, don't you kill the red eye, don't you even care if I live or die!" Although he was muttering, the speed of escape was accelerating.
