Chapter 917: A surprise attack in the misty rain (3)

"It's over..."

On the wall of Pi Lao Pass, a hundred-man general of the Korean Army showed a confused and desperate expression.

At this time, they had not yet killed all the Wei troops who had climbed up using ladders, but they had to face a more ferocious offensive from the Wei troops.

"kill--!"

Following the shouts of Xu Jiong, the general of the Shang Shui Army, three thousand men, densely packed Wei army infantry stepped on the hanging board of the Jinglan carriage on the wall, and poured into the wall in a steady stream.

"Block! Block!... Block them!"

After a brief moment of confusion, a Korean general shouted loudly and ordered the Korean soldiers to block the situation with shields.

Unfortunately, there was no way to stop them. I saw the Wei army infantry rushing towards the gate tower along the carriage platform of the well. They used their momentum and the strong shields in their hands to break up the blockade of the Korean soldiers in one fell swoop.

"Cut the hanging board! Cut the hanging board!"

Another Korean army officer shouted sharply.

After hearing this, the Korean soldiers rushed towards the wall and attempted to chop up the thick hanging board with their sharp swords.

It's a pity that the Wei soldiers would not let them get what they wanted. These heavy infantry used heavy armor and strong shields to knock the Korean soldiers back again and again - one side was the heavy infantry and the other was the light infantry.

Impact and stability are not on the same level at all.

Almost in the blink of an eye, the Wei infantry had created several "occupancy points" on the Guan Wall. These Wei infantry used the strong shields in their hands to form a shield wall, and worked together with their companions to push outwards. The Wei soldiers in the back row also did the same.

Use your shield against the back of your companions in the front row to make it easier for the Wei soldiers in the front row to borrow strength.

This is a tactic that the Shang Shui Army learned from the "Ge Shield Soldiers" of the Qin State. Coupled with the heavy armor load of the Shang Shui soldiers, the effect is excellent in the current battle situation, forcing the oncoming Korean sword soldiers to

You have to keep retreating.

"Damn it! Don't retreat!"

"No retreat!"

A Korean general became anxious and rushed forward while cursing, slashing at the shield in the hands of the Wei soldiers in front of him with his sharp sword.

Just hearing the "clang clang" sound, several slash marks suddenly appeared on the shield in the hand of the Wei soldier, but he still could not chop the shield.

"It's actually an iron shield?!"

The Korean general couldn't help but look a little pale.

Suddenly, he had an idea and shouted sternly: "Cut off the feet!"

After that, he squatted down and stabbed the Wei soldier's calf that was not protected by the iron shield with the sharp sword in his hand.

Just a muffled sound was heard, and even though the Wei soldier's calf was protected by thick leather armor, it was pierced by the sharp sword in his hand.

However, just when the Korean general smiled, he saw the Wei soldier hit him hard with the shield in his hand, and then the sword in the latter's right hand struck him hard.

Blood splattered everywhere!

Several Korean crossbowmen took advantage of the gap where the Wei soldier moved his shield and fired crossbow bolts at the latter.

However, at the same time, the sword in the hand of the Wei soldier also struck the Han general on the shoulder.

Two bodies fell to the ground at the same time.

"Damn it!"

Seeing this, a hundred-man general of the Wei army cursed secretly and shouted sternly: "Change the formation!... Squat down in the front row and step forward in the back row!"

After hearing this, the swordsmen and shieldmen in the front row of the wall squatted sideways and put the shields in their hands on the ground. At the same time, the swordsmen and shieldmen in the back row stepped forward with one foot and placed the shields in their hands.

The shield underneath forms a shield wall that looks like an iron wall.

Seeing this, the Korean soldiers' eyes turned red with anxiety, and they slashed at the shield wall in front of them with their long swords. Sparks were seen flying everywhere, but the iron-like shield wall remained motionless, as stable as a mountain.

It has to be said that although Wei's heavy infantry is not agile enough due to their thick armor, they can advance and attack and retreat and defend. Especially when they form such a shield wall, it is simply despairing.

"The "acquisition point" is available..."

At the foot of the pass, Wu Ji, the general of the merchant navy, looked at the battle on the wall and breathed a sigh of relief.

In an offensive battle, the most difficult step is to create a "capture point" on the enemy's city wall or pass wall, which is a barrier to protect the subsequent continuous attack on the city wall by our own soldiers.

Just like now, the Wei soldiers who rush to the Guan Wall first form a tight shield wall around the other end of the hanging board, so that the Wei soldiers on the Jinglan Car can rush up to the Guan Wall without any scruples.

Generally speaking, if you can create a capture point on the enemy's city wall and ensure that it is not defeated by the enemy, then the battle can be said to be half won. Victory is only a matter of time.

"Finally, I have lived up to His Highness Prince Su... Hmm?"

Just when Wu Ji breathed a sigh of relief, he suddenly heard a "squeaking" sound in front of him. He subconsciously turned his head to look in the direction of the strange noise. Only then did he realize that the wall of the leather prison gate in front of him was

, unexpectedly it opened.

Before he could react, he heard the sound of horses barking from inside the pass. Immediately, a cavalry team rushed out from the pass and ran rampant among the Wei army outside the pass gate.

"What does this cavalry...want to do?"

Wu Ji frowned slightly and squinted at the Korean cavalry rushing out from the pass. He was puzzled to find that the horses of these Korean cavalry were covered with earthen jars.

What is the purpose of this?

Wu Ji couldn't help but feel a little confused.

This Korean cavalry is the cavalry team under the command of the Korean cavalry general Gao Yang.

After breaking through the Wei soldiers outside the pass, the cavalry team was immediately divided into two teams, one facing the left and the other facing the right.

Although the Wei soldiers were somewhat unable to understand the purpose of the Korean cavalry rushing out at this time, this did not prevent them from waving their weapons at these Korean cavalry.

A Wei soldier slashed at the oncoming Korean cavalry with his sword, but unfortunately, his blow did not actually hit the cavalry or the horse under his crotch, but only shattered the cavalry hanging on it.

Two of the earthen jars on the horse.

"Bang--"

After the earthen jar was smashed, a liquid splashed out and touched the arm of the Wei soldier.

What confused the Wei soldier was that the cavalry didn't seem to have any intention of fighting back, and was just using its horse power to rush through their ranks.

"Is this...water?"

Wei Bing sniffed his arm, and then his expression changed drastically: "No! This is oil!"

Subconsciously, he turned around and shouted: "Stop these cavalry! They are carrying kerosene!"

"Oil?"

"Kerosene?"

The nearby Wei soldiers immediately exploded. Even if they generally did not have the ability to be generals, they also guessed the intentions of those Korean cavalry - leaving the border with jars filled with kerosene at this time, in addition to thinking

Is there any other purpose for burning down their Wei army's Jinglan chariots?

"Stop them!"

Many Wei troops formed a defensive line with shouts, trying to block the advance of the cavalry.

Seeing this, the Korean cavalry general Gao Yang showed a faint smile on his face.

"The armor of the Wei army is really thick... If in normal times, we encountered this kind of Wei army infantry wearing turtle shells, even the cavalry like us would have to go around, right? Haha..."

Taking a deep breath, Gao Yang slowly put away the smile on his face and shouted in a deep voice: "Crash him over!"

"oh!"

This group of hundreds of Korean cavalry shouted loudly, and under the command of the cavalry general Gao Yang, they rushed towards the Wei soldiers without hesitation.

For a time, the sound of "clang" could be heard endlessly. The earthen jars hung by hundreds of Korean cavalry on their horses were smashed to pieces. It is also unknown how many Korean cavalry were hacked to death by Wei soldiers' swords during the charge, or were killed.

Hit by countless arrows.

But in the end, they still broke through the Wei soldiers' blockade and rushed to a well gate chariot.

They didn't even stop their charging momentum at the end, driving their horses directly towards the Jinglan chariot.

"Bang--"

"Bang bang——"

One after another, the Korean cavalry drove their horses and crashed into the Jinglan chariot. The collision made the Jinglan chariot rattle and shook the ground. The Wei soldiers on the Jinglan chariot fell down one after another. Some unlucky guys even fell down.

Shen fell from the high Jinglan cart and died on the spot.

"What's going on?!"

A Wei army general with a hundred men cursed on the Jinglan chariot.

Occasionally, a few Korean cavalrymen who were still alive took out tongues of fire from their arms after falling off their horses and ignited the kerosene flowing all over the ground.

At the same time, many Korean cavalrymen ignored the attacks from Wei soldiers from all directions and just smashed earthen jars filled with kerosene one after another at the Jinglan chariot in front of them.

"Bear."

The kerosene all over the place suddenly ignited a fire, which spread uncontrollably to the Jinglan car.

"Give up! Give up this well!"

"Everyone retreat!"

Seeing that the fire was unstoppable, the Wei soldiers on the Jinglan chariot fled one after another under the command of several hundred generals.

Seeing the panic of these Wei soldiers, the Korean cavalry who fell in the sea of ​​fire had a satisfied smile on their faces.

Immediately, they took out their daggers and daggers and killed themselves.

The first well was set on fire.

Then, the second seat...

The third one...

Hundreds of Korean cavalry launched a suicidal attack, at the cost of their own lives, and set fire to the wells and chariots of the Wei army one after another.

Finally, the six wells and carriages of the Wei army outside Piluo Pass were all ablaze with fire.

"hey-hey……"

With a satisfied smile on his face, the Korean cavalry general Gao Yang charged towards the rear of the Wei army, because he knew that neither he nor the cavalry under his command could go back.

Suddenly, he saw a Wei general riding a war horse.

"You're lucky!"

Gao Yang had a look of ecstasy on his face, and he rushed towards the Wei general with a ferocious expression.

The Wei general glanced at him and slowly pulled out a long sword from his waist.

"puff--"

Two horses passed by each other. Gao Yang looked at his empty arms in disbelief. He looked back at the Wei general with a look of regret in his eyes: "Tsk..."

"Bang."

The body fell heavily under the horse.

At the same time, the Wei general, or Wu Ji, the general of the Shang Shui Army, expressionlessly shook off the blood on the blade of his sword and looked at the six burning wells with a complicated expression.

car.

"Just a little bit...just a little bit..."

Wu Ji tightly clenched the reins in his hands. He didn't know how to go back and explain to His Highness King Su.

It was clear that the Wei army had an absolute advantage a moment ago, but unexpectedly, the situation suddenly changed.

"General!" A guard whispered from the side: "At this point, the only option is to attack with the whole army."

A full-scale attack?

Just some ladders?

Wu Ji smiled bitterly.

Although the Wei army still has two intact well-mounted chariots at this moment, the problem is that these two well-married chariots are used to suppress and close the Korean army's crossbowmen, and are not used to forcibly climb the wall. They can only rely on some ladders to forcibly climb the wall.

The Wei army did not know how many troops they would lose.

Just when Wu Ji was hesitating, he suddenly heard the sound of a trumpet indicating the withdrawal of troops from the distance behind him.

That was the will of King Su Zhao Hongrun.

"……withdraw!"

Looking with regret at the nearby Pilao Pass, Wu Ji gave the order with a sad look on his face.
