Six hundred and ninetieth chapters Bafang City is broken
War clouds loomed.
The sky gradually turned dark, and the entire Bafang City was bathed in the fiery blood-red sunset, and the large groups of dark clouds in the sky were coated with a layer of gold.
There was a breathless silence.
Sergei was riding on his horse, looking at the city in the night. He was waiting for the moment when night was approaching. He swore that he would turn the entire Bafang City into a sea of fire and avenge the more than 10,000 brothers.
Two hours is coming soon, and it's time to launch a general attack.
Sergey knew that there were 50,000 elite cavalry rushing to Zhenshuiguan for reinforcements. Of course, Sergey believed that he did not need the support of Zhenshuiguan at all, because what he was dealing with was just a ragtag group of people.
Sergei was not convinced of Zhao Yuan. In his opinion, Zhao Yuan seemed to be deified by the ignorant people. He did not believe that Zhao Yuan was as powerful as the legend said.
Sergey firmly believed that Zhao Yuan could not change the entire Bafang City in just a few days.
This Crusade is the result of the Kingdom of Heaven's deliberate plan and the mobilization of millions of troops. It cannot be destroyed by a so-called evil person. He believes that as long as he points his sword, any obstacles will be turned into powder...
Sergey set a timetable for himself, and must conquer Bafang City when the sun sets. He hoped that by the time the reinforcements from Zhenshuiguan arrived, the battle in Bafang City would have been settled...
Bafang City was riddled with holes and the city walls were dilapidated. Although it took several days of repairs, the main body of the city wall had not been significantly repaired. It was only blocked with some broken masonry and was not a solid whole.
Unlike Sergey's relaxed look, Bach had a gloomy look on his face.
The quietness of Bafang City always made Bach feel uneasy.
There is no falsehood under the great reputation. Zhao Yuan's fame in the Great Qin Empire was so frightening that he definitely had a few tricks up his sleeve.
During this period of time, Bach came into contact with many surrendered troops from the Qin Empire. Whenever they mentioned Zhao Yuan, they all had a look of reverence on their faces, which made Bach feel an invisible pressure.
Of course, Bach is not worried, because there are still 50,000 elites in Zhenshuiguan, plus Sergei's 30,000 troops, and they are already in an invincible position against a small Bafang City, even if it is Zhao
The original three heads and six arms could not change this outcome.
Bach's decision to attack the city in two hours was not just a moment of enthusiasm, because he had to rush from Zishui Pass to Bafang City, and it would take up to two hours. In other words, when Sergei's army launched an siege, Zushui Pass
Fifty thousand elite troops have arrived near Bafang City.
However, what puzzled Bach was that the Crusaders at Zhenshuiguan did not make any movement.
"The time has come, General!" Sergey was eager to give it a try and his fighting spirit was high.
"Well, launch an attack."
Bach looked up at the sky, hesitated for a moment, and finally issued all the orders.
Bach is a soldier, and he knows very well that soldiers need to work together. If they do not launch an attack at the agreed time, morale will be seriously affected. Of course, Bach does not think that anything will happen to the 50,000 elites in Zhenshuiguan. After all, there are many people in this area.
For hundreds of miles, no army from the Great Qin Empire could pose a threat to the army at Zhenshuiguan. After several months of suppression, even small groups of resistance were gone.
If it weren't for Zhao Yuan, there would have been no war in the heart of the Qin Empire.
"kill!"
"kill!"
"kill!"
…
Under the bloody setting sun, the cavalry took the lead in launching a charge, running wildly along the city wall. Round after round of arrows flew into the city like locusts, blocking the sky and the sun.
Under the cover of the cavalry, the infantry began to attack the city.
Bafang City had experienced a fierce offensive and defensive battle. The city walls were severely damaged, and Sergey had a great choice. He chose to charge head-on because, right next to the gate tower, there was a huge gap. Due to the lack of stone, that
The gap has not yet been repaired, and some sacks and rocks were used to build a temporary city wall. This kind of city wall can be destroyed with just one charge.
As long as the infantry enters the city wall and opens the city gate, the entire Bafang City will tremble under the iron hoofs of the Crusaders' cavalry.
Sure enough, under the fierce charge of the tide of infantry, no decent resistance was encountered, and the city wall was captured. Under the cover of the overwhelming arrows of the cavalry, thousands of fearless infantry swarmed into Bafang City and charged into Bafang City.
Toward the city gate.
In fact, this was what Sergei had expected. After all, there were no regular troops in the city, but a group of rabble-rousers.
As long as the city gate is opened, the cavalry will rule!
Bang!
With a rumbling sound, the huge and heavy city gate was opened, and the Crusaders' cavalry raised their gleaming scimitars high and poured into Bafang City like a tide.
Where are people?
After the cavalry who were originally preparing to go on a killing spree rushed into Bafang City, they suddenly found that the gate of Bafang City was empty and no one was there. Under the bloody setting sun, it looked particularly desolate.
Why is this happening?
"there!"
Suddenly, when everyone was stunned, in the street in the distance, a figure flashed, as if he was running away.
Thousands of crusaders swarmed in pursuit.
In fact, many Crusaders realized that something was wrong at this time, but they were already riding a tiger and it was difficult to get off, because more and more cavalry were pouring in from the city gate, and the cavalry in front had to run wildly.
When fighting in a large corps, the emphasis is on working together to achieve overwhelming momentum.
Now, the city has been broken, and the Crusaders' cavalry has rushed into the city gate as if they were in no one's land. In this case, victory is already in sight.
However, nothing is absolute.
When the galloping cavalry rushed into the streets, they realized that the real battle had just begun.
In the past few days, Bafang City has not only formed a huge army, but also hundreds of thousands of residents of Bafang City have been mobilized. Now in Bafang City, it can be said that all the people are soldiers.
The original streets have completely changed their appearance. Some buildings have been demolished, and some streets have been blocked. There are fortifications built according to earth standards everywhere. On the streets, at intervals, there are either trip wires or huge beams, wood, and stones. These
Obstacles slowed down the cavalry.
Zhao Yuan's tactics caused a lag in the cavalry's mobility, but the real nightmare was the javelin throwers. Under the dusk sun, the throwers, under the command of the watchtower, stood behind the safe high wall.
Rounds of hurling spears covered the sky and blocked the sun.
The penetrating power of throwing spears is no less than that of bows and arrows, or even exceeds it.
The Crusader cavalry, which had no speed advantage, fell down row after row like wheat, while the cavalry behind them were still charging forward one after another, like a surging wave...
…
Zhao Yuan's tactics are also full of loopholes, because pitching is extremely energy-consuming and should not be sustained for a long time. However, the abundant manpower makes up for this shortcoming, because there are not many things in Bafang City now, but there are many people.
It is conceivable that as long as hundreds of ordinary refugees are given thousands of guns to wait in a hidden position and obey the command of the watchtower, then the destructive power will be absolutely terrifying. After all, there are chaos everywhere in this city.
In the Bafang City, the advantage of the cavalry has disappeared and they have become a living target.
Of course, this method can only be used by Zhao Yuan. If it were replaced by the army of the Qin Empire, it would be equally ineffective, because the Crusaders have the terrifying black-winged Kunpeng. Under the hunting of the black-winged Kunpeng, the commanded observation tower will not survive at all.
Maybe, but now, because of the Sea of Clouds Golden Eagle and the Sky-defying Monkey, the role of the observation tower has come into play.
In Bafang City, there are at least dozens of watchtowers. The soldiers in these watchtowers have been trained to master some simple gestures to direct the pitcher's battle. They are the eyes of the pitcher behind the building...
…
More and more crusaders poured into the city gate, charging in all directions of Bafang City like a tide. However, they were like a drop of water falling into the ocean, unable to make any waves.
The entire Bafang City became a huge slaughterhouse.
Every street and every building has become a killing ground.
In fact, Zhao Yuan had no tactics. He just cut hundreds of thousands of people into countless independent units. The failure of any unit meant death, because this was an isolated city, a city with hundreds of thousands of refugees, facing
In this situation, it is impossible to form a large-scale battle scene. The only way to win is to turn the entire Bafang City into a huge millstone and use the numerical advantage to trap the enemy in the streets and alleys.
When the war broke out, the refugees in the independent units realized that they had no way out. Even if they wanted to escape, they had no way to escape. They had no choice but to risk their lives and fight to survive.
The battle was so brutal that it was no less fierce than a battle between regular armies.
The casualties among the refugees were horrific. After all, they had only undergone a few days of training, and most of them were killing people for the first time.
The destruction of any unit is a massive massacre.
The Crusaders were brave and good at fighting. Once they broke into the fortifications of the refugee army, they became a nightmare for the refugees. The iron hooves of the war horses, sharp scimitars, and tough leather armor turned the Crusaders cavalry into a mobile killing fortress.
Often, when a Crusader cavalry rushes into a refugee army of a hundred people, it will cause unimaginable huge casualties. The panicked refugees will often run away in all directions under the fear of death. As a result, the brave refugees will be affected and become the victims of everyone.
