"Others continue to attack. The second group of piling teams, enter!"
Doi Kazuto stared above coldly.
They were just local garrison troops, but he wanted to see how many heavy crossbow arrows Zhang Chang had in his hand.
Hold.
Wu Baichang soon discovered this problem.
"The heavy crossbow is paused and we'll wait until those idiots drive the wooden stakes into our attack range."
Others reacted.
Even if they wear armor or even iron armor, no one can withstand the heavy falling wood from a high place.
There is no need to waste your precious heavy crossbow arrows.
However, as soon as the hammering wood and rolling stones stopped, countless Japanese pirate soldiers immediately climbed up like ants moving.
Yun Chui's ordinary bows and arrows can't cope with it at all.
"Prepare the kerosene to burn their bastards."
Wow.
Bag after bag and barrel after barrel of kerosene were immediately placed on the trench.
Wu Baichang stared down coldly until he could clearly see the eyebrows and eyes of the Japanese pirate soldiers.
He yelled: "Let go!"
A large amount of kerosene was immediately pushed or thrown out.
Bah bah bah.
The hillside was suddenly filled with kerosene.
Without any order, countless rockets flew out. Before the Japanese pirate soldiers could react, they had already buzzed the fuel on the ground.
Wow.
Suddenly half of the mountainside was in flames.
Ahhhhh.
The fire was everywhere, and there was no way to hide.
Countless firemen waved their arms and ran down screaming.
However, the more they ran, the bigger the fire became. Soon these people didn't know whether they lost their footing or were burned to death. They fell to the ground and never made a sound again.
In less than a quarter of an hour, the fire burned out all the enemies within more than twenty feet of the first trench.
Occasionally, a few who survived were quickly picked off by bows and arrows.
Wu Baichang twisted his nose and smiled at the iron tree not far away.
"Brother, human flesh smells delicious."
Ouch.
Tieshu's expression changed when he first entered the battlefield, and he almost vomited.
Ha ha.
The soldiers next to him were not surprised and laughed loudly.
Someone patted his shoulder comfortingly and said, "You are already fine. I think I vomited for half an hour when I first went to the battlefield. I will get used to it after I smell it too much."
Um.
The blushing Tieshu straightened his back again.
Dohi Kazuto below also got red-eyed, "Continue the attack, I want to see how much kerosene they have."
Tweet~
The horn of attack sounded again.
Countless Japanese pirate soldiers stepped on the warm corpses of their brothers and crawled up.
Wu Baichang above looked back at the kerosene and arrows stored behind him, stretched out his head and coldly examined the expressions and numbers of the enemies.
"Brothers who are fighting in close combat have all picked up weapons. The Japanese pirates coming up now are very guilty. We don't need to waste kerosene. We can go down and kill them with red knives."
"Yes!" Responses came from all directions.
Everyone, including Tieshu, became energetic and grabbed the big sword in their hands, eager to jump out.
————
The third line of defense.
Central Corps, Watchtower.
Lin Hanmo was in disbelief and almost fell to the ground while holding on to the railing.
The proud cavalry of the Central Army was actually swallowed up bit by bit by the Japanese infantry.
"What's going on?" he muttered.
Ahead, the heavy cavalrymen, carrying long lances, rammed into the large and small turtle formations of the Japanese pirates.
boom!
The extremely hard turtle formation was immediately shattered into pieces.
The heavy cavalrymen broke in smoothly.
However, after a moment of panic, the Japanese pirates did not lie and run around in panic. Instead, they slashed and stabbed the heavy cavalry that broke in.
Losing speed, the heavy cavalry was nothing more than an iron bucket, and was quickly killed by a large number of Japanese pirates.
Lin Hanmo saw these things clearly and didn't take them seriously.
The heavy cavalry only needs to break open the turtle shell and disrupt the enemy's formation, while a large number of light cavalry will take care of it behind them.
The result was beyond his expectation.
The light cavalry of the central legion began to cut sausages, firing arrows one after another.
Boo hoo hoo.
A hail of arrows streaked across the sky.
However, the Japanese pirate soldiers turned a blind eye.
They faced dense arrows and suffered huge casualties and rushed in front of the Qingqi, directly blocking the path of the war horse.
One was kicked away and two were kicked over.
When more and more people pounced on him, the war horse could no longer move.
Cavalry that cannot run is worse than infantry.
Soon the Qingqi commanders realized this and quickly ordered to retreat to make enough space.
It's just that even a large caravan on the post road cannot advance and retreat as it pleases, not to mention that this is a large-scale melee.
Especially for soldiers like the Central Army Corps, they usually just eat, drink and have fun, and they can cope with the occasional drill.
It's okay if the rear commander doesn't give any command at this time, but if he does, it will make them confused and confused.
咴咴咴.
The war horses neighed and galloped around.
You come and go, and the situation is so chaotic that people can't tell the difference between east, west, and north.
The frontline commander of the Japanese pirates saw this and was a little confused. For a moment, he couldn't figure out whether the enemy was in chaos or some conspiracy.
But the soldiers at the front felt it most directly.
Yun Chui's attack suddenly became much weaker, and his own attack became smoother and smoother.
All the Japanese pirate soldiers suddenly became energetic. Although their stomachs were empty, the strength in their hands and feet became much stronger without realizing it.
kill!
Take advantage of his illness and kill him.
Weakness is death on the battlefield.
On the watchtower at the rear, the military advisors of the Central Corps had a bitter taste in their mouths.
"General, brothers can't stand it."
Not only was it unbearable, it was a massive defeat.
Lin Hanmo nodded silently, feeling confused and sad and couldn't help but look towards the high ground.
"General," the military advisor knew what he meant and said hurriedly: "The highland trebuchet has a limited attack range and cannot hit the third line of defense."
Therefore, they can only rely on the Central Corps themselves.
boom!
Lin Hanmo slapped the guardrail hard.
"The cavalry can save as many as they can. If they can't be saved, let them die. Immediately let the infantry organize a defense line in the rear. No matter what, we must block the Japanese pirates and prevent them from continuing to advance westward."
"yes!"
"To..." Lin Hanmo opened his mouth and said with difficulty: "Immediately ask for help from the East China Sea Barrier in the north, and ask General Lu and others to come over and help us share some of the pressure."
After saying that, Lin Hanmo's face was burning.
In the past, he had no regard for Lu Ping'an's military rank, but now he can only pin his few hopes on the East China Sea Barrier.
After giving the order, Lin Hanmo, who was familiar with all the military books in the Ministry of War and the Hanlin Academy, looked blank.
"Tell me, is this the general's fault of command or is our Central Army Corps really vulnerable?"
Once or twice is enough, now it is the third time.
Lin Hanmo looked at the chaotic scene in front of him and couldn't help but deeply doubt his life.
"Well," the military advisors said with stern expressions, "General, our troop formation is absolutely correct."
"It's just that there are too many Japanese pirates, and they rush over like a tide. No matter how many arrows our cavalry has, they can't shoot all the enemies all over the mountains and plains."
Lin Hanmo took a deep look at the military advisor who spoke.
If it were the past, he might have believed it.
However, with the same group of enemies, Lu Pingan led his subordinates to charge forward last time, but they were driven back with heavy casualties.
