Endless Zhou army soldiers rushed to the city wall and rushed into the city gate without fear of death! The remaining Han army in Yuzhou City at this time is undergoing an unprecedented test!
Too many people died, and the blue-gray city walls were dyed red. The thick blood flowed down the city walls, painting lines of chilling and blurry colors. The killings continued day after night, and the warm corpses piled up.
On the cold corpses, they were entangled with each other without distinction.
On this day, new ghosts will line up in the underworld.
Seeing that Yuzhou City was about to be conquered, suddenly there was a chaos in the Zhou army camp in the distance!
Groups of huge fireballs, burning with fierce flames, rolled down the high slope, carrying a monstrous heat wave straight towards the Zhou army's formation! Hundreds of blazing fireballs were two to three meters huge, rolling along the way.
The fall is unstoppable! The heat wave is rolling in from the sky, with an almost unstoppable impact on the Zhou army's formation where Emperor Chai Rong is!
Suddenly, the Zhou army's formation immediately fell into chaos!
The flames surged into the sky, and countless Zhou troops were hit by huge fireballs, setting their clothes on fire! The war horses neighed, and the cavalry who could not control their mounts fled in all directions, disrupting the originally neat Zhou army formation. Even Zhou Shizong Chai
The area where Rong is located has been affected!
People shouted and horses neighed, and the scene suddenly became extremely chaotic.
Zhou Shizong Chai Rong stood up fiercely and glanced at the high slope in the distance. Countless guards and soldiers protected him. A huge fireball rolled straight towards Chai Rong's location and rushed over! Several cavalrymen rushed over.
He shouted, controlled his horse and charged forward.
The fireball and the war horse collided together, and a huge roar and the whine of the war horse resounded throughout the world!
Hundreds of shield bearers immediately came up and formed a protective circle in front of Zhou Shizong Chai Rong. Chai Rong looked at the high slope in the distance with a stern expression.
Gradually, dozens of huge simple riprap trucks slowly appeared on the high slope, and troops under the banner of the Han Army also appeared! More and more Han troops appeared on the high slope, and it seemed that there were no less than tens of thousands of them.
people!
Liu Ling's reinforcements have arrived!
Liu Ling sent people to spend a whole night and half a day to make this simple riprap cart. Although the workmanship is very rough, its power is amazing. Those stones do not roll down the hillside, but fly
The fireballs that exploded directly in the Zhou army's camp were all thrown by these trebuchets.
Liu Ling had read many books in his past life and was very clear about the principles of this simple trebuchet, and it was not difficult to build it. There were a lot of good materials in the mountains and forests, so he tied the cut branches with rattan and sprinkled them with pine.
Oil, made into amazingly powerful fireball cannonballs!
Just to make this thing, Liu Ling's reinforcements were slightly late.
Seeing that Yuzhou City was in danger, Liu Ling did not immediately send troops to support Yuzhou, but concentrated his troops to attack the Zhou army's formation! Because he saw the huge yellow umbrella in the formation at the first sight, and he knew it immediately
Zhou Shizong Chai Rong is in the formation! If they divide their troops to rescue Yuzhou, their strength is far inferior to that of the Zhou army. If they are all thrown into the battlefield, it will be equivalent to triggering a decisive battle in advance. In such a battle, the Han army will definitely lose!
Therefore, Liu Ling made a decisive decision and went straight to Huanglong!
Each of the thirty trebuchets requires hundreds of people to push them. If it weren’t for the cavalry’s horse-drawn chariots that were spared no effort in using horse power, I’m afraid they still wouldn’t be able to arrive. The attack arm of each trebuchet requires at least fifty people.
Only soldiers with more than 100 soldiers can pull it, and slowly pull down the big arm of the trebuchet. Several soldiers carried the unlit big ball and put it on the big arm of the trebuchet, and then lit it. More than fifty soldiers worked together.
Letting go, the big arm screamed and threw the burning fireball into the Zhou army's formation!
There was burning everywhere, and people were lying on their backs!
Zhou Shizong Chai Rong grabbed a general who was protecting him, and couldn't control his anger and roared: "Where are the scouts! Why are the Han troops appearing on one side of the camp, and the scouts didn't report back!"
The general was strangled by his armor, and he breathed a little quickly and said: "Your Majesty, the scouts have been sent out. If there is any military information, we will report it immediately."
Chai Rong was furious and kicked the general to the ground: "Sent out? The Han army is almost in front of the battle, you still dare to quibble! Why do we have useless generals like you in Zhou Dynasty! In the middle of the war
, if we don’t send out scouts to observe the enemy’s situation on the side, you can do such stupid things, so what’s the point of keeping you!”
"Come here! Kill him on the spot!"
Chai Rong was so angry that his face turned pale with anger!
Several imperial warriors rushed up, grabbed the general's hair, and cut off his head with a knife!
Chai Rong sat on a high platform, pointed at the Han army camp on the high slope and shouted: "Who dares to lead the army to attack the Han army's position, and take advantage of the Han army's unsteady foothold to catch them off guard!"
A general knelt down and said: "The last general Chu Lihuo is willing to go!"
Chai Rong's expression softened and he said: "Okay, you will lead five thousand troops and overturn the Han army's position for me! If you break through the Han army's position, I will give you a heavy reward!"
Fenwei General Chu Lihuo turned around, mounted his horse, shouted, led five thousand men and horses and rushed straight to the Han army's position. It was just a hasty dispatch of troops, and the Zhou army was inevitably a little delayed. When the five thousand men and horses rushed out one after another, the front army
and the leader of the rear army. The attack line was weak, and the Zhou army in front immediately became the target of the Han army.
There was a rumbling sound, and countless fireballs were ignited and pushed down from the high slope. Liu Ling had carefully observed this terrain two days ago. He sent his personal guards and the Nie brothers to kill all the patrolling scouts.
They were killed quietly. Although the scouts were smart, they had no room to fight back against masters like the Nie brothers.
Hundreds of fireballs were ignited and retreated, rolling down the high slope at a rapid speed. The Zhou army rushing up suddenly fell into a sea of fire. The Zhou army rushing at the front was frightened and began to run back wailing.
Chu Lihuo beheaded several Zhou soldiers but could not stop the defeated soldiers. He became angry, raised his sword, slapped his horse, and led hundreds of his soldiers to charge straight up the high slope!
There was a sea of fire under the high slope, and countless Zhou soldiers were burned alive. The fireballs rolled down and rushed into the Zhou army formation, and the scene became more and more chaotic. The rear camp was burying pots for cooking, and the 120,000 troops who set up the camp were
, just discovered that the Zhou army formation in front was in chaos, and before they could react, 15,000 elite cavalry from the Fuyuan Army of the Han Army came over from the side with thunderous winds and thunder!
These fifteen thousand cavalrymen drew their bows and arrows when they were very far away. The arrows tied with rags and pine oil were ignited, and a rocket came down like a rain of fire from the sky!
After several waves of arrows, the Zhou army's camp also burst into flames. The tents were ignited by rockets and soon burst into flames. The Han army's cavalry swarmed in, killing people and setting fires at the same time. The tents stretched for more than ten miles.
There was a domino reaction in the camp, and the atmosphere of panic quickly spread.
Most of the Zhou troops were still setting up camps or resting, and their horses were grazing on the grass. No one expected that the Han troops would appear so unexpectedly!
The scouts were killed by Liu Ling first, but it was not until the Han cavalry appeared in sight that the Zhou army reacted. There were shouts, neighs, and chaos. The fire became more and more fierce, and the entire camp was quickly engulfed in a sea of flames!
The Han cavalry did not focus on killing people. Instead, they rode through the camp and set fire to more and more tents. Soon, all the tents of Sun Xuandao's 80,000-strong army were on fire. Looking from a distance,
, the whole camp was in flames! The highest point of the flames could reach six or seven meters, and with a crackling sound, all the tents collapsed!
The Han cavalry came and went as fast as they could. As the fire broke out in the camp, they turned their horses around, changed their direction, and killed them directly behind the Zhou army's formation in front! Fifteen thousand cavalry, like the wind.
It passed by and burned the entire Hou Zhou camp. The Zhou army did not know how many Han troops came to kill them, and they fled for their lives out of fear.
The atmosphere was like an infectious disease, panic spread and could no longer be suppressed.
Suddenly, 120,000 troops fled in panic.
Courage can be contagious, and so can fear. And fear spreads much faster than courage! It takes time to encourage everyone to move forward and not be afraid of death, but running away is a completely subconscious reaction. 120,000
The army of the Later Zhou Dynasty was defeated before even entering the battlefield!
The Han cavalry left the Zhou army's camp and rushed straight to the Zhou army's formation where Chai Rong was. At this time, Chai Rong only had less than 20,000 Zhou troops around him, and they were unable to resist the 15,000 elite Fuyuan troops.
Cavalry! The elite cavalry of the Fuyuan Army are different from ordinary cavalry. They have one more weapon than ordinary cavalry, and that is throwing spears!
Throwing a spear is different from a bow and arrow, requiring greater strength. Without a certain amount of arm strength, you cannot throw a spear very far. Throwing a spear is heavy and difficult to aim. It can only be used to its full potential when the two armies are about to charge.
Lethality. But for the cavalry of the Fuyuan Army, throwing lances has become a must training!
The Fuyuan Army cavalry galloped forward. When they were far away, they opened their bows and fired arrows, using their feather arrows to kill the soldiers in Houzhou's formation. After the distance was shortened, they put down their bows and arrows and grabbed their spears.
inside!
call!
Throwing spears flew in, and hundreds of Zhou army soldiers were immediately nailed to the ground alive! The penetrating power of the throwing spears was far greater than that of arrows, and many Zhou army soldiers were pierced by the throwing spears through their bodies and died on the spot!
Chu Lihuo led hundreds of soldiers. Although they were brave and brave, they could not rush to the front of the Han army's position. A hail of arrows flew and a large number of Zhou soldiers were immediately shot to death. Chu Lihuo was hit by three arrows and knew how to break through.
The Han army's position was absolutely impossible, so they had to turn their horses and lead the defeated troops back.
When Liu Ling saw that the Zhou army was in chaos, he ordered: "General Maoyuan, lead your troops and horses to attack the Zhou army's formation. This will increase the momentum and force the Zhou army to retreat!"
Maoyuan accepted the order, jumped on his horse, roared, and led his 10,000 Fuyuan troops straight to Chai Rong's location to kill him.
Liu Ling turned around and said: "It is only now that we can save the siege of Yuzhou, all generals! Get on your horse with me and rush to Yuzhou to kill!"
After he finished shouting, he took the lead in getting on his horse, pointed the big gun in his hand at Yuzhou City and shouted: "There are still our brothers in the city. As long as there is one person alive, we will rescue him! We will not give up!"
"Never give up!"
"Never give up"
The Fuyuan Army plus the 2,000 cavalry brought by Liu Ling, except for Maoyuan's 10,000 horses, the remaining 26,700 horses rushed down from the high slope, surging out like a flash flood!
At this time, the Zhou army was in chaos. Chai Rong was attacked from both sides. From the side were 10,000 Han troops led by Mao Yuan. Behind them were 15,000 cavalry from the Fuyuan army. In addition, they were burned by a fire.
He had long lost his fighting spirit. Thousands of soldiers protected Chai Rong, frantically fighting a bloody path and escaping into the distance.
The Zhou army that besieged Yuzhou had already entered the city. Seeing the chaos in the rear and the cover of His Majesty's yellow umbrella falling down, people suddenly became panicked. The previous anger and murderous intent were immediately replaced by boundless fear. They
He turned around and ran back, the thought of revenge being thrown out of his mind.
As soon as Sun Xuandao led his army to rush forward, he saw a chaos in the rear. He immediately returned to support the army, but the Zhou army was already in chaos. The Zhou army was defeated in the formation. Even Zhou Shizong Chai Rong could not restrain the rebels, and he was helpless.
I just urge my men to go back quickly to protect His Majesty’s safety. (To be continued)
