Chapter 82 The winner, steal the tower!
The east fell into fierce hand-to-hand combat, and in the west Lu Bu and Zhang Fei teamed up to deal with Dong Zhuo's tribe.
Dong Zhuo's elite force was out this time. Xu Rong, Hua Xiong, Dong Yue, Hu Zhen, Li Jue, Guo Bang, Fan Chou, Zhang Ji, Zhang Xiu, including Niu Fu's personal guard Chi'er, etc., are all warriors who have been fighting for many years.
.
This group of horse thieves are fierce and slippery when fighting. They often use more to defeat the less, and they also use sneak attacks from time to time. Moreover, the technical and tactical level of the Liangzhou soldiers is no worse than that of the Yongzhou army.
Therefore, there were at least three or four generals fighting Lu Bu or Zhang Fei. Once they were defeated, they retreated, fighting with their soldiers' lives, and consuming the physical energy of the two unparalleled generals.
Gao Shun and Xu Huang also encountered stubborn resistance. Both sides were evenly matched and fell into a bitter battle.
He Jin's personal troops of 2,000 cavalry and nearly 10,000 infantry surrounded Guan Yu's troops. Therefore, the 1,000 elite cavalry led by Guan Yu were also in trouble and had no choice but to retreat while fighting, fighting with the opponent.
He Jin commanded the remaining 20,000 infantry, divided into four or five lines, and launched a charge across the board.
Facing the infantry all over the mountains and plains, the artillery barracks seemed to be of little use and could only be used as an embellishment.
When the charging crowd rushed into the trench area against the rain of arrows, the special operations team members broke into pieces and began to perform.
After letting go of the first wave of people, he suddenly emerged from the hidden soldier hole in the first line of trenches and unexpectedly blocked the opponent's second wave of offensive lines.
The special operations team members fired hand crossbows, threw throwing knives, and then worked in groups of two to engage in close combat.
The 500 Yongzhou heavy-armored infantry guarding the core position fought fiercely from a high position and wiped out all the more than 1,000 opponents. They then rushed to the front-line trenches to take over the special operations brigade to fight against the following enemy forces.
Lan Dong whistled, and the special forces team members who retreated took out fire certificates and two small porcelain bottles with fire wires from their arms.
The heavy armored infantry wearing double armor and masks have extremely high defense. They are all big men and have indestructible sabers in their hands.
As a result, He Jin's follow-up infantry failed to attack smoothly, causing congestion in the front-line trenches.
Lan Dong blew a sharp whistle and raised his fist to make an open gesture.
The special operations team member immediately lit the fuse and threw it behind the human wall on the opposite side, followed by the second bomb.
"Bang bang bang..."
Five to six hundred ceramic "grenades" exploded in the crowd, and the broken porcelain fragments were like a storm of blades, specifically attacking the soldiers' feet.
In the smoke rising from the explosion, many soldiers felt a sudden numbness in their legs and feet, followed by a strong stinging
Make them unstable and fall down.
In the sight of the special operations team members and the heavy armored infantry, visible to the naked eye, the human wall suddenly became a lot shorter.
The second wave of charges was also defeated.
The sudden explosion did not kill many people, but the injured were everywhere. The heavy armored infantry lay on the ground in a mess, with blood flowing all over the ground. The tragic scene was horrifying.
The heavy armored infantry colonel was a nine-foot tall man, with blood dripping from his black armor, like a bloodthirsty demon.
Lan Dong stepped forward and asked loudly: "Old Pang, is this thing good?"
Pang De Pang Lingming, a native of Nan'an, Yongzhou, joined the Yongzhou Army when he was annihilating Beigong Boyu. After a battle, he was promoted to the rank of Military Marquis due to his meritorious service.
Pang De was tall and strong, extremely brave, and his martial arts skills rivaled those of Guan and Zhang. When the Marquis built the heavy armored infantry camp, there was no one who could surpass him in the army, so he was awarded the title of captain of the heavy armored infantry camp.
When Liu Bei was gaining experience under his teacher Lu Zhi, he had witnessed the terror of the Northern Army's heavy armored infantry.
Therefore, the heavy armored infantry battalions formed by selecting 89-foot-high men from the entire army are second only to heavy cavalry in terms of food treatment in the army.
High investment brings visible results.
After just a wave of hand-to-hand combat, the heavy armored infantry battalion not only did not retreat even half a step, but instead killed and injured seven to eight hundred enemy troops and lost dozens of its own people.
The exchange ratio is more than one to ten, which is staggering.
Hearing Lan Dong speak, Pang De turned his neck, found Lan Dong through the mesh on the mask, and raised his hand to open the mask.
"This thing is specially designed for the lower body to capture bamboo shoots? If you dare to use this in the end of year exercises, I will never end it for you!"
Lan Dong laughed loudly and said proudly: "If you don't use this, you will lose. If nothing else, just run for a few miles and you will collapse!"
Pound thought about it. There is really no good way for heavy armored infantry to deal with special forces.
While he was talking, another wave of people came. Pound suddenly pulled down his mask, turned around and rushed forward, shouting: "Get ready... raise your knife... to chop!"
When the sword that is as tall as a person is swung down, ordinary wooden shields will break into pieces. When it hits a person, the armor will be broken. Unarmored soldiers will often be chopped into two pieces.
"Go forward, raise the sword, and chop! Come forward, raise the sword, and chop again!"
The infantry battalion, one hundred men in a row, moved forward steadily.
When one person falls, another person will be added in the back row, and a neat formation will be maintained at all times. The enemies blocking the front will be killed.
Soon, the enemy in front of the heavy armored infantry camp collapsed at the first touch, and began to actively move to both sides.
Liu Bei once again ordered the messenger: "Blow the horn!"
"Woooooo!"
Three times later, the same horn sound came from behind the Yongzhou Army.
Young Emperor Liu Bian turned around in surprise.
Above the waves, I saw a row of more than 20 paddle-wheel ships approaching in the wind.
The ship approached the shore, and the crossbowmen on the ship, under the command of the flag soldiers on the hill, fired crossbows and arrows at the enemy infantry attacking on both sides.
At the same time, the connecting boats were put down, with twenty people at a time, to transport reinforcements to the shore.
Twenty-four sea-going ships, each carrying 200 soldiers, totaling more than 4,000 people.
After the new force landed ashore, they went straight to the core position and launched a double-team on the enemy attacking from the east.
The fierce battle lasted until noon. On the eastern battlefield, Yuan Shao and Duan Yan were unable to defeat Bingzhou Lao and Huziying, and were the first to be defeated.
Once again, leaving more than a thousand cavalry to hold the opponent back, Yuan and Duan fled quickly eastward with more than a hundred personal guards.
The two generals fled shamefully, and the remaining soldiers seemed to have been drained of their souls. Their courage and morale plummeted, and they collapsed immediately.
Wang Fu and Wu Da's nearly a thousand subordinates raised their swords, guns, bows and crossbows and cheered loudly!
Seizing the opportunity, the two turned around and returned to the core position to help in the battle.
The fragile balance on the battlefield was broken. The Zhongyang Army that circled to the east struggled to advance under the attack of artillery, ship crossbows and arrows, special forces and crossbowmen on the hills.

When Wang Fu and Wu Da came from behind, the attacking infantry on the east side commanded by He Jin could no longer resist. The cavalry drove them all the way back toward He Jin's headquarters.
The ship immediately headed to the west of the battlefield. Wang Fuuda, Pang De, and Lan Dong also followed Liu Bei's orders and led their troops to assemble on the west side of the hill.
After receiving 4,000 reinforcements, the balance of victory and defeat in the battle has been reversed, and the Marquis's plan to weaken the Liangzhou Army and the Zhongyang Army in the first battle has been basically completed.
Yuan Shao collapsed, Dong Zhuo was held down, and General He's troops were scattered. Now, all we have to do is hold on to our own formation and hold off the opponent, waiting for the most critical outcome.
He Jin was gathering his defeated troops and preparing to regroup when he suddenly saw a horse flying from behind.
"Report: Yuan Shu's Sun Jian troops have sneaked into the Eastern Capital in disguise and are storming the imperial city!"
He Jin's head was buzzing on the spot, his eyes were filled with stars, and he almost fainted.
"Go back to Beijing!"
He Jin immediately took two thousand troops and rushed eastward. Only by keeping the court can he keep his seat and continue to enjoy wealth and glory.
Similarly, Liu Bei also received a message from the flying cavalry. Xu Dajun persuaded Jiangdong Paizhi to march into the imperial city and steal the tower.
While you are sick, I will kill you!
Counterattack, full counterattack!
The sound of drums, horns, and red rockets resounded over the Mengjin Ancient Ferry.
Liu Bei was wearing armor, got on his horse, and pointed his sword at General He's battle flag.
"Capture He Jin alive, and the emperor will return the capital!"
"Capture He Jin alive, and the emperor will return the capital! Capture the general alive, and the emperor will return the capital!"
Wave after wave of sound spread in all directions.
Upon hearing the signal for counterattack and the commander's military order, all the officers and soldiers of the Yongzhou Army burst out with astonishing combat effectiveness.
With only 300 riders left, the Bearded Battalion screamed excitedly, everyone gearing up and smiling happily, driving their war horses, waving their scimitars, and rushed down the hill.
The melee of the cavalry group on the west side was the most difficult, with both sides suffering heavy casualties and almost reaching their limit.
However, Sun Jian, the "winner" and the Tiger of Changsha, entered the city and directly poked the general's sensitive point, and the situation suddenly changed.
The Yongzhou army pressed forward in full force, and the shrewd Liangzhou horse thieves immediately understood that the situation was over.
Run, don't explain everything here.
After ordering Xu Rong, Li Jue and Guo Si to break up, Dong Fatty led the entire army to retreat westward.
Lu Bu and Zhang Fei suffered huge losses and were so furious that they chased them ten miles away, surrounded Xu, Li and Guo, and prepared to kill them.
Seeing that he could not escape, Li Que had the brightest idea and threw away his weapon first, jumped off his horse and knelt on the ground.
"Stop fighting, we're down! We're down!"
Xu Rong and Guo Si immediately reacted and knelt on the ground as naked men, ready to be beaten or killed.
The sworn brother Gao Shun was seriously injured. Lu Bu, who was carrying Fang Tian's painted halberd, was about to strike harshly, but Xu Huang held him back.
"Lord, military regulations..."
Yongzhou military regulations: On the battlefield, those who surrender will not be killed without humiliation, and those who are unarmed will not be killed!
Lu Bu was so angry that he shouted: "You three, if you are men, pick up weapons!"
The three dead pigs, who had known for a long time that the Yongzhou army had strict discipline, allowed Lu Bu to pour more than a hundred pots of boiling water on them, and they were treated as if they were taking a bath.
In the end, Zhang Fei came forward and dragged Lu Bu away.
Xu Huang also had a good relationship with Gao Shun, but due to military discipline, he could only threaten the three generals with a dark face.
"Bah, Liangzhou is a coward, remember to be careful when walking at night from now on!"
In this world, life is worse than death. How can Xu, Li and Guo care about the future?
Don't be cowardly, just do it, that's a brainless fool.
