Chapter 375

Seeing the Eternal Army getting closer, the soldiers behind the car formation became more and more nervous.All kinds of bows and arrows pointed at the enemy in front.

"All of them, the first round of crossbowmen, shoot!" Following the order of the frontline general Shi Shouyi, countless arrows flew out, forming a black curtain that fell from the sky and fell into the rushing Eternal Army.

The Eternal Army cavalry immediately set up their small round shields to protect their fronts, and continued to charge against the powerful impact of arrows.Some cavalry were unfortunately shot, fell off their horses, and were instantly submerged under the horses' hooves.

"Second round, shoot!" There was no room for gaps, and when the first round was shot, the order for the second round was issued immediately.

The Eternal Army overturned a group of cavalry again, but they still couldn't stop the cavalry's tenacious fighting spirit.They shouted and yelled wildly, not only did they not have the slightest fear in their eyes, but instead added bloody fighting spirit.

"Third round, shoot!"

"The fourth round..."

Rows of archers behind the chariots fired repeatedly, and the crossbows on the carriages did not stop at all.Finally, after five rounds, the Eternal Cavalry crashed into the carriage with a bang.

One after another, the horses and the people collided into the carriage, and with the momentum brought by the charge, the carriage was knocked inward, and the horses and cavalry were also bloody and bloody under the collision.

"Spearmen come forward, hold on, don't let them rush in!" Shi Shouyi yelled sharply, commanding a team of spearmen to come forward to fight.

A lengthened spear was stretched out of the carriage, and it was thrust out vigorously.Some soldiers relied on manpower to withstand the crooked carriage and nailed it firmly with wooden boards.

At this moment, the Eternal Cavalry behind them took out their bows and arrows and fired a salvo in the direction of the carriage.The rain of arrows fell into the space inside and outside the carriage. Whether it was the Hengshan Army inside the carriage or the Eternal Cavalry outside the carriage, they all suffered countless casualties under the shooting regardless of friend or foe.

This unexpected attack by the Eternal Army caused the frontline soldiers to fall down.Fortunately, the Eternal Army opposite them also suffered heavy casualties, which slowed down the pressure of the attack.Shi Shouyi's face was gloomy, and he immediately ordered another group of spearmen to step forward and hold the front line.The sword and shield soldiers are on the second line, guarding against the enemy's arrow rain.At the same time, engineering soldiers took advantage of the situation to step forward and carry the injured soldiers back to the rear for treatment by medical soldiers.

Just as the Eternal Chinese Army continued to attack the Hengshan infantry formation, the cavalry on both wings had also engaged in battle.After a confrontation between the two sides, each of them suffered thousands of casualties, and then the cavalry suddenly dispersed, chasing and killing each other on this huge battlefield.

Lin Yifan stood on the Chinese military observation vehicle, looking at the battlefield in front of him with stern eyes.He did not expect that the combat power of the Eternal Army would be so powerful, far exceeding his previous judgment.

"General Hou, General Tang, in your opinion, if our army wants to win, how many casualties will it take?" Lin Yifan asked, looking at the two people who were in charge of analyzing the situation on the battlefield.

"My lord, according to the current situation, our army can win, but it will be a miserable victory." Hou Mingfeng said with a heavy face, "The strength of the Eternal Army is by no means inferior to our army. If the current tactics and tactics are used, only I am afraid that without more than [-] casualties, it is impossible to repel them."

"Twenty thousand casualties, just to repel them?" Lin Yifan frowned, and said in a deep voice, "If so, how is that different from failure? Two generals, do you have any countermeasures to turn the tide of the battle?"

"My lord, the battle situation is changing rapidly. We have made a battle plan before. It is not only difficult, but also unwise to change it now." Tang Rong shook his head and said, "At present, there are only two choices we can do, or stick to the current battle Plan, at all costs, to severely injure the enemy. Either tighten the formation, take a defensive position, use cavalry to defend the periphery, and wait for the reinforcements from the county to come to join. However, the second method is not recommended by the subordinates. According to known information, Enemy reinforcements will arrive here in a few days, which is extremely detrimental to our army."

"Yes, my subordinates also agree with General Tang's opinion." Hou Mingfeng said in a deep voice, "My lord, at present we follow the original battle plan, although the casualties are quite large, we can still wipe out most of the enemy troops. victory."

Lin Yifan remained silent, with hesitation in his eyes.

Seeing this, Hou Mingfeng immediately persuaded him: "My lord, the so-called kindness does not command soldiers. On the battlefield, one must not have kindness in one's heart. Everything should be focused on annihilating the enemy."

Lin Yifan reached out his hand to stop him from continuing to persuade him, with cold eyes, "I understand what you two mean. However, I am not only the commander of the Hengshan Army, but also the lord of Hengshan. I have the responsibility to bring more living soldiers back home , our Hengshan Army is not without the power to fight, it's just that the time has not come. Dali, you immediately go to inform the Shenji Battalion and order them to attack immediately."

"Yes!" Niu Dali yelled loudly, and immediately went with the token.

"My lord, there are only 3000 people in the Shenji Battalion, what effect can it have on the battle situation?" Hou Mingfeng asked puzzled.From the very beginning, he was quite curious about the Shenji camp, but after getting to know it later, he realized that the so-called Shenji camp was a kind of army that manipulated gunpowder.It's just that they don't have any intuitive understanding of the power of the rumored gunpowder.Therefore, he had to be skeptical about dispatching the Shenji Battalion to turn the tide of the battle.

"Hehe, General Hou has not been in contact with Shenjiying for a long time, so he naturally doesn't know much about the power of gunpowder. After a while, you will know what is called Shura Field." Lin Yifan smiled slightly and said with a strong confidence.

"My lord, what is gunpowder? What are you talking about?" Tang Rong, who had just joined, asked curiously with a blank face.

"General Tang, don't worry, you'll find out later." Lin Yifan didn't explain, just said with a smile.

Soon, the [-] Shenji Battalion came out of the central army and brought carriages to the rear of the front line.Immediately, the curtain on the carriage was lifted, revealing strangely shaped instruments.Standing in a row, the soldiers of the Shenji Battalion climbed into the carriage and began to debug and load.

After a while, with the unfurling of red flags, it was announced that the preparations were completed.Lin Yifan's order also arrived, and the frontline soldiers retreated in great strides, guarding the surroundings of Shenji Battalion.

Without the resistance of the Hengshan Army, the frontline carriage formation was crooked and crumbling, and the Eternal Cavalry was about to break the carriage formation.

"Start!" With an order, one torch lit the matchlock behind the wooden box, and the flames crackled upwards. After a while, in a puff of white smoke, there were countless sounds of "咻咻!". From the clouds In the middle, countless arrows with flames flew out, flying towards the enemy army crowded in front of the chariot formation.

"Ah!" In the thick smoke, countless arrows were shot by the Eternal Army, and the gunpowder scorched their flesh with hot flames, making them unable to bear the screams.

Surrounded by thick smoke, he couldn't see the surrounding figures with his eyes, and he heard the screams of his comrades around him, and some even struggled in front of him with the flames on their bodies.Such a terrifying and weird sight immediately frightened the Eternal Soldiers.Coughing desperately, he backed away crazily, shouting God's blessings in his mouth, wishing to leave this highly toxic fog immediately

However, it's not over yet.Accompanied by the swarming attack, the simple throwing rod installed on the carriage was thrown out with a string of flaming packages.

"Boom! Boom!!" Packages landed in the Eternal Army one after another. Before they could react, they heard a series of explosions from the army. Countless limbs, broken arms, blood and mud splashed in the air and fell profusely. It fell on the people.

"Ah, help, the god is angry! This is the thunder punishment of the god!"

Under this supernatural power, countless Eternal Cavalry suddenly lost their wild courage and fled like lost dogs.

Ang Kui looked at everything in front of him with a pale face, he really couldn't understand what happened in front of him.Could it be that this is really the divine power descended from the gods?
No, it's impossible!Ang Kui shook his head violently. He had already seen that these so-called supernatural powers were released by the other party without knowing what. It was not a punishment from a god at all, but a weapon created by the other party.But it was too late to say anything now, the whole army was in a panic, and even the personal guards around him were trembling amidst the rumbling sound.

Knowing that the army's morale was in disarray at this moment and they had no power to fight anymore, Ang Kui punched the saddle angrily, and shouted sharply: "Retreat!"
