The corpses that fell on the ground were taken away by the Xianbei people with hooks and ropes, and a passage was cleared. Then the Xianbei warriors gathered together again, forming a shield formation and moving forward step by step.
This time, the Xianbei people were not as eager as the last few times, and seemed to be moving forward more cautiously.
Zhang Liao had already taken off his cowhide combat boots and was standing on the ground with bare feet. The same was true for the soldiers around him. Even those wearing straw sandals were still not able to use them.
The soil soaked by rain, and then soaked with blood, will tenaciously adhere to any object with a little friction, and it will become more and more with every move, and finally it will no longer fall under the action of gravity.
Falling back to the ground willingly.
In Zhang Liao's first two defenses, his cowhide boots had turned into mud boots. A thick circle of yellow mud adhered to the sides of the boots, making them heavy and unstable. Therefore, he took advantage of the break in the battle to
He took it off and stood on the mud with bare feet, which made him feel lighter.
Face the loess and turn your back to the sky. As a farming nation, when you step on the earth with bare feet, you will naturally feel the support and emotion of the earth for you. When life comes to an end one day, people in the Han Dynasty will naturally choose to turn their backs to the loess.
Looking up to the sky can be regarded as a luxury that future generations will not be able to enjoy.
The same is true for the Xianbei people. They basically took off their leather boots or cloth shoes, and moved forward with their bare feet behind their shields, hiding their bodies tightly. On the remaining walls of the passes, the Han army's bows and arrows were also seen.
It was impossible to find a suitable target, and after being exposed to the humid air for a long time, the bowstring made of various tendons was also a little weak, and the arrows shot were not as powerful as before.
The Xianbei shield formation moved forward step by step. Suddenly, someone in the shield formation shouted something, and the Xianbei shield formation suddenly flipped open. Several Xianbei soldiers jumped out from the gap in the shield, holding up their spears and fiercely
Throw it out!
"Captain! Be careful!"
Zhang Liao was at the front of the array and was the first choice target of the Xianbei warriors. When he discovered that Xianbei had changed formations, the spears he threw were already roaring in front of him!
And some Xianbei soldiers who were originally behind the Xianbei shield formation, who seemed to be covering, also ran a few steps in succession and threw their spears out together. Suddenly, the spears flying in the air were like raindrops, carrying the scream of death.
Heading towards the pass city gate!
Zhang Liao swung the spear fiercely, blocking several spears and knocking them away. However, as the Xianbei soldiers behind him continued to run up and throw the spears, he suddenly felt a little pressure. After all, the weight of the spears was
The arrow is more than ten times more powerful, and even if it is knocked away, the force transmitted from the spear will still make Zhang Liao's spear slightly sluggish. And under such circumstances, as long as a slight gap is exposed, the consequences may be
disastrous.
Zhang Liao's personal guards hurriedly raised their shields and rushed forward, trying to cover Zhang Liao, but their bodies were exposed. Suddenly one of them screamed, and a spear was hit in the side of his waist, which penetrated straight through.
The armor pierced into the body, and he couldn't help but loosen his grip. He fell to the ground with his shield, blood spurted out, and he saw that the air intake was less and the air was out more...
Although there was a life threat, more people rushed forward and raised their shields in an attempt to protect Zhang Liao.
Fei Qian has always attached great importance to the protection of his soldiers. Even if the cavalry does not have full-body armor like the heavy infantry, there are still sleeved armors in the form of armor, but for the convenience of riding, below the waist
There is no protection, so as long as you receive damage, it is a real serious injury.
Originally, Xianbei troops used bows and arrows to carry out long-range attacks after the sudden encounter, but found that the effect was not ideal. The weak arrows could not penetrate the Han army's armor at all, let alone the guards holding shields. Therefore,
After just a few rounds of shooting, they all gave up and chose to engage in hand-to-hand combat. But now, Zhang Liao was really suppressing him and he couldn't move any further, so he had to throw out the spear in his hand. You must know that Xianbei in this era had not yet
Like Rome, there would be javelins and the like. These spears are the weapons used by the Xianbei people. After being thrown, it means that these people can only fight with short knives...
It can be seen that the Xianbei people were really cornered. However, these spears thrown at close range were powerful and heavy, but they really had the power to break armor!
Seeing Zhang Liao being suppressed, the Xianbei people burst out with a crazy shout, and many people immediately rushed towards the pass...
Zhang Chen, who was standing on the broken wall of the pass, shouted quickly, asking the Han army to fire suppressively. However, there were basically not a few people standing on the broken pass. The little arrows were too much for the Xianbei soldiers who were charging madly upward.
, not much resistance at all!
Zhang Liao was protected by his personal guards in the middle. Just when he was about to push the soldiers away, his wrists felt a little sore and he frowned. He had traveled a long distance before and pressed hard all the way without any repairs. Not only did he defeat Xianbei
The leading troops even defeated Xianbei's counterattacks several times.
This kind of fighting intensity is too much for even a tough man...
At this time, seeing that the Han generals were forced to retreat, Tulkin shouted loudly and rushed towards the pass with his most elite bodyguards!
These Turjin's personal guards were all well-equipped, and even had a set of leather armor, and the weapons in their hands were naturally sharp and exquisite, completely different from ordinary Xianbei soldiers.
Turkin, on the other hand, wore two layers of armor, one layer of leather armor and one layer of battle armor, and also carried a shield. He was not carrying a sword, but a black iron axe.
He is tall and strong and looks like a dark iron tower. Just looking at it is enough to give people chills!
The Dry Bones Crossing is a battleground!
Although Turul is still lagging behind with the rest of the Xianbei cavalry, Turjin cannot just wait for the troops behind to arrive without taking any action. If he just waits for Turul to bring people,
, it may not be possible to escape the fate of coming forward to fight. Everyone knows that among the Xianbei tribe, the ones who respect the warriors are always the warriors, not the shrinking and insidious people who only use tricks.
What's more, Turjin had already endured the previous battle for a long time, so why did he allow the rest of the Xianbei warriors to come forward in batches to consume the strength of the Han generals? With the prestige that Turjin had accumulated in his daily life, but
This is not without cost. If he cannot seize this crossing this time, his prestige will be completely wiped out. The next time he encounters the same situation, the Xianbei soldiers will no longer listen to his orders.
Therefore, taking advantage of the moment when the Han generals retreated, although it is not known whether the spear throwing caused any harm to the Han generals, for Turkin, it is now time to lead his men to break through this crossing and
The corpses of the Han defenders are trampled underfoot, the best chance to seize this bone pass!
As the black feet stepped on the ground and foam flew, Tulkin had already led his men to the pass, and suddenly burst out with a loud roar, announcing the beginning of this pounce!
During the roar, Turjin sank slightly, and with the momentum of his forward thrust, he slashed an ax diagonally towards the shields of the Han troops gathered together at the pass! The iron ax weighing dozens of kilograms was like a
Like a wooden stick, it was being chiseled into the shield. Only a bang was heard, and the shield immediately fell into pieces. The soldier holding the shield had been knocked back and his arms were twisted into an unnatural shape.
The shape, if it weren't for the iron gauntlet, the limbs would have been separated at this moment.
Before the rest of the soldiers could react, Turkin's iron ax had already hit the soldiers on the other side with another backhand strike. Although they were protected by armor, the armor was powerless against such heavy weapons.
Immediately there was a sound of bones breaking that made people's hair stand on end. It was already visible to the naked eye that the breastplate of the Han soldier knight was dented downwards. Blood rushed out accompanied by a scream and he fell to the side.
Tulkin struck another ax to the other side and hit another Han soldier. In the blink of an eye, he had already opened a gap in the Han army's formation!
The Xianbei warrior shouted and took advantage of the gap in the Han shield array that had been opened by Turkin and was tilted for a while, so he rushed into the middle!
More than a dozen shields from both sides collided fiercely, squeezing each other, and countless daggers and spears stabbed at each other from the gaps in the shields. In the blink of an eye, more than a dozen corpses fell down on both sides.
Immediately, he was trampled deeper into the mud by countless pairs of mud-covered screams.
In this small area, the shouts and screams of both sides shook the valley. The ground was already littered with stumps and internal organs of unknown parties, with colorful things here and there, and blood even more.
, mixed in the land that has been trampled into a quagmire, causing the muddy water to emit a strange purple-black color.
Xianbei tried his best to drive the Han people out of this pass, while the Han people tried their best to resist. In order to advance or retreat a little, both sides were willing to sacrifice their lives. Even on the collapsed pass wall, there were figures of both sides fighting.
The people brought by Turjin are all superior to ordinary Xianbei soldiers in terms of martial prowess. These people belong to the Xianbei Royal Court. Most of them have been fighting for war since they were born, so they naturally spend more time
In terms of physical training and mutual fighting, as for life, there are naturally many slaves to provide them. Therefore, both in terms of strength and skills, they can suppress the ordinary Han soldiers, and in commanding Turkin
Under his leadership, he unleashed an astonishing combat power, pushing the Han army array that was originally stuck in the city gate hole out step by step!
There was another collision in the shield formation. The spears and daggers of both sides moved greedily between the shields, inserting into each other's chest, abdomen, thighs, and even the exposed soles of the feet! Some people kept screaming and fell down, but the soldiers who were fighting were
Don't care at all!
Surrounded by his own men, Tulkin carefully observed the fierce fighting ahead, and suddenly ordered with a cold face: "Change the queue!"
Several guards around him immediately raised their voices and shouted together: "Change the queue, change the queue!"
The row of shield-raising soldiers at the back immediately shouted and pushed forward. The Xianbei soldiers at the front, who had suffered numerous casualties and were exhausted from the fight, immediately retreated from the gap between the shields. Some Xianbei soldiers were already wounded and were raising their hands.
I was struggling to hold on with my breath, but when I heard the order to change queues, I just took two steps down. As soon as my spirit relaxed, I felt overwhelming pain. As soon as my strength was exhausted, I fell to the ground.
The Xianbei soldiers who surged up from behind ignored them and trampled under their feet the wounded soldiers who were still screaming...
When fighting in the military formation, as an ordinary soldier, there are actually not many opportunities to choose, and there is no way to show off the coquettish movements by tossing and turning. There are crowded people around. If you twist too much,
, maybe even hit the tip of his own soldier's sword.
Most of the time, everyone resigned to their fate and stood with their comrades around them, desperately connecting their shields and fitting them against the shields to form a solid front. Whoever was unlucky enough to be slashed and stabbed by the enemy on the opposite side,
All we can do is complain about the bad feng shui of the ancestral tombs. If one person falls, he will quickly replace the next one. When they go to the battlefield and fight against each other, most people will lose their normal feeling and will not even feel that they are a living person.
, just corpses that can move!
Turkin charged forward, his ax passed by, blood spattered violently, and his clothes and armor were already covered with shocking red. Under his slashing, the soldiers in front of him stumbled, and the shield array could not be connected for a long time.
.
As a general who is overly brave, he has great advantages in small-scale battles. The scene where Zhang Liao faced the Xianbei soldiers before was reversed this time in Xianbei. The Xianbei soldiers became more brave as they fought, and the Han army's formation was defeated
Finally, the pressure was suppressed. Seeing this situation, the Xianbei people couldn't help but cheer loudly!
While Tulkin was killing the Han soldiers wantonly, he felt a little uneasy. Seeing that his son had the upper hand, he took two steps back, took a breath, and then stood in the crowd and scanned the Han soldiers on the opposite side.
The previous Han general was not found...
Could it be that he accidentally hit the spear when he threw it earlier?
Just after he threw his spear, the Han soldiers quickly rushed up and surrounded the Han general with shields. Tulkin was not able to see whether he had hurt the Han general, but after so long
None showed up...
On the battlefield, anything can happen. Even if you accidentally step on a rock or twist your body, it may lead to a missed shot being hit instead.
Although Tulkin knew that there was such a possibility, he was still uneasy until he saw it with his own eyes. Therefore, his eyes were constantly searching left and right under the banner of the Han army on the opposite side. Suddenly, he saw the Han soldier just now.
The general, covered in blood, stood up from behind several shields...
