Using Zhao Ba as an arrow, the three hundred heavy armored infantry were like a heavy armored vehicle, killing and crushing all enemies standing in front of them!
The Zhou army's offensive was so fierce that Liu Ling said that they must be pushed back! So Zhao Ba abandoned his horses, put on heavy armor, held a Mo knife, and led the 300 heavy armored infantry brought by Zheng Chao upstream against the torrent.
Mo Dao flies, blood stains the sky, killing one person in one step, it is unstoppable.
At the North Gate Camp of Huazhou, the total number of Han troops attacking was 20,000. At this time, no less than 40,000 troops were transferred from the South Gate Camp, East Gate Camp, and Ximen Camp to join the remaining troops at the North Gate.
More than five thousand people began to launch a crazy and continuous attack on the Han army. Liu Ling had no reinforcements because the remaining Han army had divided into two groups and attacked the east and west gates of Huazhou at the same time. Liu Ling's night attack
The main purpose is not to destroy the heavy crossbows at the north gate, but to draw most of the Zhou army over!
He wanted to use his current strength of less than 16,000 troops to resist the fierce attack of more than 60,000 Zhou troops, including the defenders in the city! He just wanted to attract all the Zhou troops, and then concentrate his forces to attack Huazhou
There are two gates, the east and west! The south gate cannot be attacked, which is a retreat for the Zhou army. If it is besieged on all sides, the Zhou army without a retreat will cause huge damage to the Han army if it fights with its last ditch.
When he commanded more than 10,000 troops to fight against 60,000 Zhou troops, Wang Banjin led 40,000 Han troops and twenty catapults and began to launch a fierce and brutal attack on the East Gate Camp of Huazhou. At this time, Dong
In the gate camp, after the second deployment of troops, there were only more than 6,000 people left. Facing the attack of 40,000 Han troops, although their defense was fierce, it was still difficult to stop the Han army's advance.
Cheng Yihou, Marquis of Sanjiang, commanded 40,000 Han troops to launch an offensive against the west gate of Huazhou. The Ximen camp, which was also under-strength, was bombarded by twenty trebuchets for half an hour. The soldiers of the Zhou army had already lost their lives.
The courage to continue to resist. They began to retreat crazily. No matter how many people the supervising team killed, they could not stop their retreat. However, they could not enter the city!
After the Zhou army defending the city saw that their defeated troops were retreating like a tide, the commanding general decisively ordered the suspension bridge to be raised, and then shot down a hail of arrows, blocking his robes outside the moat. Continuous bombings, those who were addicted to the river were
The blood dragons had fled long ago. They were indeed ferocious, but they were also afraid of the monstrous fire and violent explosions.
Wang Banjin commanded the army to press forward like dark clouds covering the sun, forcing the defeated Zhou army to crowd the outside of the moat. The soldiers of the two armies were bloody and fiercely entangled with each other. The Han army continued to squeeze forward, and the Zhou army at the rear was
The army was constantly squeezed into the moat. The deep river water drowned too many soldiers of the Zhou army.
Finally, when there were less than two thousand soldiers left in the camp, the last living general chose to surrender. Wang Banjin did not hesitate, but immediately divided his troops and escorted the prisoners away from the battlefield. Then, he ordered the baggage
The soldiers of the battalion began to move the trebuchets forward. The huge and heavy trebuchets required hundreds of people to push them. Looking from the wall of Huazhou City, the tall trebuchets were pushed forward slowly by the Han soldiers.
Moving, it was like a wild beast being driven head-on into the city wall of Huazhou.
When the distance was reduced to within the shooting range, Wang Banjin ordered the catapult to start ejecting gunpowder packets at the top of the city. At the same time, he ordered the soldiers to turn the captured heavy crossbows that were still usable, adjust their angles, and start aiming at the towers on the city wall.
Zhou Jun's shooting. The long and huge heavy crossbow can shoot a person in half. Even the heavy city gate can be penetrated by the heavy crossbow!
On Cheng Yihou's side, the explosion on the Huazhou City Wall was only one stick of incense slower than on Wang Banjin's side. At this time, Liu Ling had already held on for two hours!
Both parties are gambling, betting that they can win!
Liu Ling was betting that he could withstand the Zhou army that was constantly replenishing its troops with less than 12,000 men and horses. As long as he persisted until the Han army broke through the gates of Huazhou, the attacking Zhou army could only quickly attack after losing Huazhou.
Evacuate, otherwise they will be outflanked by the east and west Han armies. Even if they have more than 50,000 people, they will still not be able to escape misfortune. Xie Jun is betting. He is betting that Liu Ling will be defeated in one fell swoop before the Han army breaks through the city gate.
Kill! As long as Liu Ling is killed, what will happen even if Huazhou is lost? Liu Ling is the pillar of the Han Dynasty and the spiritual pillar of the Han army. As long as Liu Ling is dead, no matter how many Han troops there are, they will not be afraid!
The two of them were like red-eyed gamblers, holding on desperately.
After Zhao Ba brought 300 heavy armored infantry to halt the Zhou army's offensive, the Han army took advantage of this time to quickly integrate their formation. When Zhao Ba came back with blood-soaked heavy armor, he followed
There were only a dozen heavy armored infantrymen left around him.
Seeing a fire starting on the wall of Huazhou, the dazzling firelight flashed into Liu Ling's eyes. He rubbed his tired eyes, turned around and said to Zhaoxian: "It's your turn to go up, Shenji Camp
Whether it's a tiger or a rat, let's fight today."
Zhaoxian solemnly performed a military salute and said: "The Shenji camp is a tiger! It is the most loyal and craziest tiger under the prince's command!"
Liu Ling smiled and nodded: "I believe it!"
Zhaoxian shouted loudly: "My king is mighty! The great Han is mighty!"
He suddenly raised his hand and hit his chest hard twice, as if he wanted to dissipate the depression in his chest. Then he turned around and walked in front of the two thousand Shenji Battalion soldiers he had brought with him.
"What are the weapons you are holding?"
he asked loudly.
"Thunderball!"
Two thousand soldiers answered in unison, and the sound shook the sky.
"Thunderbolts! What are they for!"
"Kill! Kill the enemy!"
"Okay! Now, use the most sophisticated firearms in the world in your hands to beat up those Zhou troops! The prince is behind us. If you take a step forward, the prince will be safe. If you take a step back, the prince will be in danger.
One point! Tell me, what should you do!?"
"Kill all Zhou's troops!"
Zhou Jun, who was fighting fiercely with the Han Army's Pu DaoShou, suddenly found that the pressure they were facing suddenly lightened. They raised their heads and started to see the Han Army's Pu DaoShou began to retreat in an orderly manner. The Zhou Army's battalions
The generals all smelled the smell of victory, so they desperately urged the soldiers to move forward, forward, and forward again!
The simple swordsmen of the Han army gradually retreated. Two thousand Han soldiers armed with strange weapons formed a two-layer defense neatly. Then they raised the strange-shaped weapons in their hands and pointed them at the Zhou soldiers who were rushing towards them crazily.
As the leaders of each brigade issued orders one after another, the strange weapons in the hands of the Han army suddenly spurted out clouds of flames! Fist-sized thunderbolts smashed into the attacking crowd of the Zhou army like hail, and then there were dense explosions.
!
Two thousand thunderbolt bombs exploded in the Zhou army. Suddenly, the Zhou army rushing at the front fell down like wheat. A crisp sound was heard among the Zhou army, and clouds of black smoke were scattered among the Zhou army.
Rising, the fragments of the explosion flew all over the sky, and at least thousands of Zhou soldiers were killed! The Zhou army's offensive formation was immediately torn open an isolation zone. Countless Zhou soldiers fell down wailing.
Down, the thunderbolt fragments pierced into their bodies, mercilessly taking away their vitality bit by bit.
The two thousand Shenji camp firearms soldiers actually forced the Zhou army to retreat steadily! Two layers of Han army firearms soldiers took turns to come forward. In just one cup of tea, thousands of thunderbolt bombs were fired arrogantly.
Flowers bloomed everywhere in the Zhou army.
"Archers! Press forward and push back those Han soldiers who use firearms!"
Xie Jun gave the order in a hoarse voice.
Thousands of archers began to push forward, and then fired back at the firearms soldiers of Shenji Battalion 150 steps away. In terms of range, thunderbolt bullets were not as far as bows and arrows. The previous round of sudden attacks pushed the Zhou army back several times.
Ten steps later, the disadvantage of the short range of the thunderbolt bullets was exposed. The archer's suppression began to take effect, and hundreds of firearms soldiers were shot to death on the spot by feather arrows. Moreover, another disadvantage of the thunderbolt bullets was in the confrontation with the archers.
It is also fatal in a confrontation, that is, the speed at which they can reload thunderbolts is far less fast than bending a bow and setting an arrow!
This confrontation, which nearly wiped out two thousand firearms soldiers, made Liu Ling gradually loosen his reliance on firearms. This battle made Liu Ling realize that in this era, if rifles cannot be made, firearms soldiers will definitely rely on thunderbolts.
Unable to confront the archers head-on! Liu Ling knew that he was not omnipotent. In his last life, he was just a sickly man who read a lot. Without practical experience, he could not improve firearms at all! Perhaps, the gunpowder bag was already capable
The most destructive weapon ever brought to this era.
A large number of firearms soldiers died, and they died extremely quickly. The Zhou army's archers far exceeded the firearms soldiers in terms of range and shooting speed. After gaining the absolute upper hand, the Zhou army's archers pressed forward step by step, overwhelming the firearms soldiers.
They kept retreating under pressure. If Liu Ling hadn't quickly mobilized giant shields and archers to fight back, none of the two thousand firearms soldiers would have survived.
In two hours, Liu Ling's men had less than 7,000 men, and the Zhou army that came madly had lost more than 20,000! This was a real hard fight, and the Zhou army, which had an absolute numerical advantage, suffered far more losses than the Han army.
There are more troops, which proves the powerful combat effectiveness of the Han army.
When Xie Jun frantically urged the soldiers to press forward, Liu Ling knew that he had to use the Shura Camp cavalry. The reason why he had not used it before was because the heavy armored cavalry of the Shura Camp could not speed up in such close-to-hand combat.
, cavalry that can't charge up against infantry, even if they are wearing heavy armor, they can't have any advantage! There are only three thousand people in the Shura camp. This is the weapon that will be used against Luo Xu's tiger cavalry in the future. If it is ruined here, it will obviously outweigh the gain. But
Now, Liu Ling has no soldiers left in his hands!
"Tell the Shura camp to come up."
Liu Ling waved his hand and sighed.
The messenger waved the order flag, and the Shura Battalion cavalry who received the order began to move forward. Their speed was not fast, because they had no room to speed up!
At this moment, a sudden roar of cheers came from the left wing!
