Chapter 387

On the wasteland, hundreds of thousands of armies of the two armies are still facing each other. The Hengshan army is on the defensive, constantly repelling the invading enemy army. On the battlefield, corpses are scattered all over the field. If it is not for the severe winter, the corpses may have already rotted and stink .

Facing the hedgehog tactics of the Hengshan Army, Tuo Muxiong gritted his teeth with hatred, but there was nothing he could do.In the past ten days, he tried every means, but he was still unable to break through their defense line and find their weakness.On the contrary, it was our own soldiers and horses who suffered nearly [-] casualties during this period.

Just when Tuo Muxiong was anxious, looking forward to Ang Kui's escort of the slaves, the messenger from Dingxi City finally arrived at the camp, bringing bad news.The [-] Dingxi Army attacked Dingxi City, and General Ang Kui led people to the rescue.

When Tuo Muxiong saw the news, he almost fainted. No one knew better than him what the news meant.Once Dingxi City is breached, not only will his rear be blocked, but the logistics of the 20 troops will also be interrupted.At that time, the army will inevitably fall into panic, and even himself may die in Shazhou.

Tuo Muxiong, who came back to his senses, suddenly roared with red eyes. He finally understood that the Hengshan Army on the opposite side did not have 20 troops, and 15 Dingxi Army had already circled behind them to raid Dingxi City.Well, the army in front of them now is only about 20, and among them, [-] are newly formed mobs.In other words, the Hengshan Army has only [-] combatants.And my [-] men are all elite soldiers, but I was delayed here for more than ten days, because I was worried that the strength of the troops would be equal, and if I hurt the enemy by one thousand, I would lose eight hundred.When he thought of how long he had been fooled by the Hengshan Army, his blood surged up and he trembled all over.

"Send the order immediately, the army will attack in an all-round way, and the emperor will crush the opponent's army formation." Tuo Muxiong roared fiercely, furiously.

The sound of high-spirited horns resounded through the heavens and the earth, and the eternal army began to assemble in an all-round way, forming formations.The change over there immediately attracted the attention of the Hengshan Army. Everyone cheered up and quickly returned to their combat positions to complete their combat preparations.

Lin Yifan and the others observed the movement of the Eternal Army on the viewing platform. After watching for a while, he couldn't help laughing and said, "It seems that the Eternal Army has already received the news from Dingxi City. I don't know if they succeeded."

Hou Mingfeng stared at the other side with a stern face, and said in a deep voice: "My lord, it seems that as you expected, the Eternal Army must have received news from Dingxi City, so they are eager to fight us. The subordinates just observed After a while, I found that the camp of the Eternal Army has changed completely, and I am afraid that it is preparing for a decisive battle."

Lin Yifan couldn't help but restrain his smile when he heard this, and looked at him worriedly, "General Hou, it seems that Tuo Muxiong has seen through our hypocrisy. Can our 15 people stop their attack?" ?”

"My lord, to be precise, we only have 5 warriors, and in terms of elites, there are only [-]." Hou Mingfeng frowned, but said in a confident tone, "But we are on the defensive now, not only are there The fortifications, as well as the defensive weapon gunpowder, the number of winners and losers is between five and five. My lord, next, we will usher in a hard battle."

"Then let's fight!" Lin Yifan looked coldly in the direction of the Eternal Army, and said in a deep voice, "I believe in our soldiers, the Hengshan Army will surely win!"

"Kill!" The Eternal Army surrounded on three sides and launched an attack at the same time. The 20 troops rushed in like a huge tsunami, and arrived at the battlefield in a blink of an eye. The shield soldiers held up their huge shields to protect the comrades behind them, and rushed all the way.

"Bows, throwing stones, bows and arrows ready!" The long-range shooters on the front line immediately got ready, nervously waiting for the order to be issued.

"Shoot!" Countless arrows and boulders flew out, forming a black curtain in the sky, skimming the line of defense, and falling in vain, like a hailstorm, falling on the dense Eternal Army.

Countless screams were accompanied by bloody corpses, and the momentum of this charge was stagnant.However, under the command of the Eternal Officer, the Eternal Army soldiers stepped on the corpses of their comrades in front without hesitation, and continued to rush towards the Hengshan Army's defense line.

After three rounds of long-range attacks, the Eternal Army finally rushed to the front of the trench. The giant shield soldiers quickly threw their shields into the trench, and a dozen shields piled up, forming a walkable passage immediately.The Eternal Soldiers who followed immediately rushed forward, crossed the trench, and attacked the earthen wall full of spears.

At this time, the Eternal Archer who arrived later took advantage of the opponent's bow and arrow to be attracted to the front, and immediately approached the battlefield, drawing his bow and shooting arrows.A rain of arrows fell into the Hengshan army, and many soldiers who had no time to defend were shot and fell down.The archers behind no longer aimed at the charging enemy, and shot arrows at the archers behind the enemy.

On the battlefield where the arrows rained heavily, everyone gave up defense and only continued to attack, constantly killing and injuring the enemy.Maybe one second, you were still excited about killing an enemy soldier, and the next second, you were shot by a stray arrow and fell down unwillingly.There are also people who stand still in the endless rain of arrows, and the knives and guns in their hands are constantly harvesting lives.On the battlefield, human life is like grass, life or death depends entirely on luck.

Hou Mingfeng calmly issued various orders and constantly mobilized troops to fill up the weak line of defense.Under the powerful offensive of the Eternal Army, the entire Hengshan Army Formation appeared panicked but not chaotic.As a commander, he has a deep understanding of this point. The Hengshan Army is well-disciplined and well-trained. When an order is issued, it will be carried out quickly.This made him sigh, Hengshan Army has such a strong army, who in the world can control it?Given time, we will surely be able to compete in the world and win the Central Plains.

At this time, Tang Rong hurried over, "General Hou, the Eternal Army has tens of thousands of horses crossing the trench and approaching the earth wall, can we take action now?"

Hou Mingfeng quickly observed the situation on the battlefield with a telescope, nodded immediately, and said in a deep voice, "Yes, it will be implemented immediately."

At this time, outside the earthen wall, countless soldiers of the Eternal Army gathered, fighting stalemate with the Hengshan Army separated by a wall.On a short, small dirt wall, swords and guns were ringing, and blood flowed horizontally, sprinkled on the dirt wall and mud, dripping down viscously.

Suddenly, a flame gushed out from the ditch and quickly spread to all directions.The fire quickly burned the entire trench, and many soldiers of the Eternal Army who fell to the bottom of the trench, or who were leading to the trench, were instantly submerged in the fire, wailing miserably.The scorching temperature blocked the pace of the Eternal Army's attack, and the Eternal Army that had already reached the earth wall had no way to escape.The trench was only a few meters away from them, and the scorching heat kept baking their backs.With no way out, they had no choice but to squeeze forward desperately, trying to climb over the earth wall and escape the heat.

However, how could the Hengshan Army do what they wanted? The spearmen stubbornly withstood their offensive. Afterwards, a group of soldiers who came over with strange equipment quickly arrived at the front line, holding a long iron rod and firing One end was lit, and then it protruded beyond the earthen wall.An auxiliary soldier in the back immediately pulled something like a bellows, and saw a tongue of flame erupting from the iron rod, instantly engulfing the Eternal Army in front of him.

As the iron rod was swung, tongues of flame swept across all directions, and those who touched it turned into howling firemen, struggling on the ground in pain.The Eternal Army in purgatory howled in fear at the sight of this big killer weapon. In their view, this was simply the wrath of the gods. How could mortals like them resist this kind of divine power.

At this moment, the entire defense line was engulfed in a sea of ​​flames, and the Hengshan Army on the front line also all evacuated, looking at the tragic scene in front of them with complicated expressions.In the air, there is a strong burnt smell, which is disgusting.

Hou Mingfeng came to Lin Yifan with a pale face, and said tremblingly, "My lord, I didn't expect this flamethrower to be so overbearing. I'm afraid that tens of thousands of souls will be buried in the sea of ​​flames in this fire attack. It's so hurtful." For such a move, the subordinates are afraid that their lives will be shortened."

Lin Yifan didn't expect that the effect of this fire attack would be so tragic, tens of thousands of lives were lost in a single fire.The material used for the fire attack this time is the product of further refining of oil by Qiaogong Bureau. Although it is not as good as modern gasoline and other flammable and explosive materials, it has become a powerful weapon in Hengshan after gunpowder.

When digging the trench this time, many hidden holes were left to connect the earth walls.When fighting, secretly pour this fire oil into a trench, waiting for the opportunity to ignite.The flamethrower is a great invention of Qiaogongju, which makes kerosene no longer just a defensive weapon, but gradually transforms into an offensive weapon.

 I wish book friends a happy Mid-Autumn Festival and a family reunion!
