Chapter 683 Reinforcements are coming

Chapter 683 Reinforcements are coming

Xue Rengui's eyes widened: "Commander, do you want to do it again with a camel carrying a lot of gunpowder?

The big eater must be on guard."

Su Chen smiled and said: "You watch here and see if the big cannibal dares to get too close."

"Exactly how to use you to adapt to the situation, as long as the big eater is not allowed to come up, anyway, we can afford a little gunpowder and camels, we will lose a lot."

"By the way, pay attention to the southwest. If Liu Rengui arrives, he will notify us in advance."

Temporarily handing over the defense on the hill ridge on the left to Xue Rengui, Su Chen came to the camp.

Call some auxiliary soldiers and ask them to bring some sacks to contain the sand.

Su Chen planned to rely on the fence of the camp and build a simple defense with sandbags.

The former Fang Wuting let the trebuchet fire the last salvo of incendiary bombs to temporarily block the cannibal's crazy attack.

Taking advantage of this gap, all the artillery of the Tang army fired a salvo, quickly clearing the big cannibals in front of the Wugang chariot.

Then the gunner hurriedly loaded the artillery, and a marine held up a shield and braved the attack of a small number of cannibals from the front to strengthen the fixation of the Wugang vehicle.

The auxiliary soldiers took the opportunity to pull barbed wire behind the first row of military vehicles and put up a pyramid roadblock.

At this time, the cannibal's crossbowmen gradually gave up shooting at the Tang army.

Their bows and arrows did too little damage to the Tang army. The arrows landed on the Tang army's armor and had no effect at all.

Moreover, the Tang Army's Divine Arm Crossbow suppressed them too much. The Tang Army's crossbowmen could shoot at them, but they could not reach the Tang Army's crossbowmen.

Seeing this situation, Suleman simply asked the crossbowmen to charge with gunpowder bombs and kerosene bombs followed by the cavalry and infantry.

Seeing that the cannibal's bows and arrows were sparse, Su Chen simply asked the crossbowmen to rest for a while.

The thousand-heavy cavalry sent to pursue the Tang army's cavalry was killed and defeated by the Tang army. After they fled back, Suleman began to worry about the situation in Medina.

Although there are still many guards in Medina, they are not regular troops. They are servant warriors cobbled together from various noble families, as well as young men recruited temporarily.

When encountering the powerful Tang army, the consequences are really hard to predict.

Even though yesterday, Khalid and Abbas conducted a careful study of the various capabilities of the Tang Army, Suleman now had to admit that he had underestimated the Tang Army's combat effectiveness.

The more worried about the safety of Medina, the more Suleman stepped up his frenzied attack on the Tang Army's camp.

At this time, the battle damage of the Great Eater had reached nearly 40%. It is no exaggeration to say that there were mountains of corpses in front of Wugang's chariot.

The Dashi infantry was now relying on the bodies of people and camels piled on the ground as cover, frantically digging holes under the Wugang chariot and pulling out the iron pins that fixed the Wugang chariot one by one.

Cheng Wuting sighed: "I have never seen an army like the Great Cannibal in my life. Even after being beaten like this, they are still rushing forward crazily."

"The front row of the Wugang vehicle is going to be demolished by them!"

Su Chen came to Cheng Wuting: "Tear it down, just tear it down. When they break through the barbed wire in front, everyone will retreat."

"Let them continue to dismantle the second row of Wugang vehicles, and I built a simple fortification based on the camp fence,"

"Let's see how many lives they will lose to dismantle the second row of military vehicles."

Cheng Wuting sighed and said: "We have lost more than 300 people in the battle, and the gunners are already short of manpower."

"And the artillery fires continuously for a long time, and the temperature is already very high,"

"Now every time I launch, I have to use cold water to cool down for a while before I can continue to load gunpowder,"

"Our firepower has been greatly reduced!"

While the two were talking, a group of cavalrymen rushed up. Each of them threw a flying claw, grabbed a Wugang chariot, and drove the camels to pull it backwards.

Most of the iron bolts that fixed the Wugang carts were pulled out by the big eater. The two Wugang carts were dragged hard by more than a dozen camels, and the remaining two iron bolts could not be fixed at all.

More than a dozen camels worked hard and finally overturned a Wugang cart. Then the big eater continued to drive the camels and dragged the two Wugang carts away.

A gap suddenly appeared in the obstacle formed by the front row of martial arts vehicles, and the giant eater rushed toward this gap crazily.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Field artillery and bowl-mouth guns kept firing at the gap, but they couldn't stop so many crazy giant cannibals from rushing forward without fear of death.

There was a gap, and then there was a second one, and another Wugang cart was dragged aside by the giant eater.

The Big Eater was very cooperative. He rushed from the gap behind the front row of Wugang vehicles. Instead of continuing forward, he ran directly to both sides to destroy more Wugang vehicles.

Soon, most of the Wugang carts in the front row were dragged aside by the big eater.

Then the big eater began to move towards the second row of Wugang vehicles.

"Fall back!"

Seeing that Cheng Wu was unwilling to give in, Su Chen directly ordered: "Hurry up, after the field artillery fires, just drag it behind."

"After holding on for one more round, the blunderbuss retreated immediately. Those barbed wire fences and square pyramids can't stop the cannibal for much longer."

The giant eater destroys those barbed wire fences and roadblocks very quickly, and the method is very simple, that is, after grabbing them with a grappling hook, they drive the camels and pull them back.

Su Chen commanded the Marines to retreat and reestablish their positions.

The artillery began to bombard the big man-eater in front again,

Cheng Wuting said: "Commander, the second row of Wugang vehicles is much less than the first row. There are a lot of gaps between each vehicle. With a few iron chains, they can't stop the big man-eating infantry. They can get through directly."

come over."

Su Chen nodded: "Attention all crossbowmen, abandon the original target and deal with the cannibal infantry. You must not let them charge forward."

Cheng Wuting said with some worry: "Commander, Liu Rengui and Yuchi Baolin will probably wait a while. Our current situation..."

Su Chen interrupted him: "What is our current situation?"

"Don't say Liu Rengui and Yuchi Baolin will arrive at any time. Even if they can't arrive in time, we still have three thousand camels and horses behind us,"

"The auxiliary soldiers are putting armor on them one by one. Even if the big cannibal dismantles the Wugang chariot in front again, we transform into cavalry and charge down the ridge on the left. Can the big cannibal stop it?"

"No, you transformed into cavalry and charged while I left in a hot air balloon. There are several spare hot air balloons ready to take off!"

"Besides, the Great Eaters have almost lost half of their lives in the battle. How long do you think they can last?"

At this time, a messenger ran over panting: "Commander, fireworks were found in the southwest!"

Su Chen laughed loudly: "Brothers, hold on a little longer, our reinforcements are coming!"

"Cheng Wuting, I'll leave this to you. I'll go take a look at the top of the mountain ridge."

At this time, five miles southwest of the Great Eater, Liu Rengui, with a thousand cavalry, was replacing camels.

After he received the military order sent by Su Chen quickly, he immediately came with everyone.
