Chapter 318: Desperate Contest (Part 2)
Tu Ni's eyes were filled with blood: the sky, the earth, the woods, the carriage walls, the carriage city, the soldiers... everything was red.
Tu Twisted subconsciously wiped his eyebrows, spread his hands and looked, there was no blood, but why was everything in front of him bloody?
Only Tu Nian, the guard beside him, was horrified to discover that the general's eyes were now covered with bloodshot eyes, and the whites of his eyes could no longer be seen...
The two hundred heavily armored soldiers of the Wolf Fang, within a few dozen breaths, were destroyed by the terrifying metal storm and turned into a pile of scrap metal and a pile of rotten flesh.
There are five thousand charging troops and two thousand armored regular soldiers. The only real elite is these two hundred Wolf Fang heavy armored soldiers. This is where the confidence lies in breaking through the defense circle of Tianzhu Army Chariot City. Now, this confidence and the flesh and blood
The blurred corpses were shot to pieces together.
Not only did Tu Twi burst the capillaries in his eyes, but even the earthworm-like blood vessels on the back of his hand almost bulged with anger from holding the ax handle too hard. But even at this moment when blood rushed to his brain, Tu Twi still did not forget it.
A commander's responsibility is to issue orders to the Second Layer
The last instruction of the auxiliary soldiers of the formation: "Tear down the wall of the oar car, and all Alixi, handymen, and people with a pair of oar cards, all rush up for me - as long as anyone who can rush to the car city and survive, the battle
The latter will be promoted to one level and rewarded with one cow, one horse and ten sheep!"
As long as you rush to the carriage city, you don't have to fight to the death. After saving your life, you can get an upgrade reward, which sounds really good. And, the most important thing is that you can also dismantle the oar carriage to protect yourself.
Jin Bing is quite satisfied with the effect of the wall. Judging from the situation where the group of heavily armored soldiers were swept away in the blink of an eye, if there was no such wall before, would they have been able to reach the city of this chariot safely?
hanging.
Nearly a thousand people started to work together, and the wall of the oar was demolished until only a pile of wheel hubs were left. Some were holding half of the big tree, some were carrying the planks, and some were carrying the entire vehicle.
The base... all kinds of weird "shields" are eye-popping. But no matter what, there is no doubt that this bunch of clumsy and crude things are thick and strong enough to block lead bullets.
Of course, if you hold this pile of thick, long and heavy things, you can't expect to fight with the spearmen.
Tu Ni didn't need these more than a thousand soldiers. He liked to fight hand-to-hand with the slaves. He expected a group of soldiers whose training, weapons, protection, and morale were far inferior to others to fight against an elite army. Tu Ni was still not dizzy.
Tu Ni had only one purpose in doing this. To use thousands of cannon fodder to attract the firepower of the Tianzhu Army, he would lead the last elite, eight hundred regular soldiers, to bypass the front and attack Checheng from the south.
When the attack order was given, Ali Xi and his servants carried huge wooden planks and ran up the ladder bridge. Tu Nian and eight hundred gold soldiers rushed towards the south side of the chariot city in a swarm.
Tu Nian's move can only be regarded as a surprise attack rather than a sneak attack, because there is no way to hide it from the Tianzhu Army - whether it is the four sentry towers in Checheng or the cavalry a hundred feet away from Checheng, they can clearly see the movements of Tu Nian Army.
What Tu Ni had to do was to hurry up. Before the Tianzhu army in Checheng could react, board Checheng from the south and attack the center of the enemy's formation.
Of course, Tu Ni didn't know that there was always an army of women in Checheng who had tried their best but failed to show off their skills. They were waiting for the enemy who thought they were smart and wanted to catch them, so they would bump into the muzzle of the gun.
Ali Xi and his servants boarded the chariot city from the front (west). Before they could stand firm, they were faced with a hail of bullets. Even with the cover of the "super earth sign", many golden soldiers fell under the chariot one after another.
There is no other reason. First, on top of the car city, there are stacks of
There are a lot of corpses and sticky blood, and they are squishy and slippery, and the lower body is slightly unstable. You don’t need to hit yourself to fall over; secondly, the oar shields made from local materials are of different sizes, some have good protection, and some only cover.
Most of the body is covered, and the lower limbs are still exposed...
Due to the large number of earthen scull shields, the continuous sound of gunfire and the smoke, it affected observation. Neither the observers nor the musketeers on the watchtower realized that this was a cannon fodder team. They only knew that they were enemies and opened fire.
, enemies will fall one after another as long as you shoot.
However, as more and more golden soldiers stood firm, they connected the earthen oar shields in their hands together, and built a wall of oars on the top of the chariot city. To be precise, these golden soldiers were
Ali Xi and his servants huddled behind the oar wall and could not come out after being beaten to death.
Outside the oar wall, lead bullets rained like rain, and what penetrated the ears was the scalp-numbing sharp "chirp chirp" sound. Sawdust flew from the oar wall, and the wall trembled. But inside the oar wall, Alixi and the servants were one by one.
They were overjoyed - they rushed to the car city, and they were still alive. As long as they could hold on, it would mean upgrades and rewards...
The anomaly of the siege troops to the west finally attracted the attention of the Tianzhu Army. At the same time, the observers on the watchtower also continued to sound warning signals, indicating that a large number of enemy troops were flanking the south city.
Di Lie, who was sitting in command of the Central Military Watchtower, also discovered at the right time that the enemy in front of him was a purely defensive army - hundreds of thousands of people rushed to the Checheng desperately just to build a new oar wall, and then they were cowering.
, get beaten without showing your head? Jin Jun is not so stupid!
This army is defensive and decoy. Then, there must be another army that mainly attacks! Which side will it be on? The south or the north?
"Instruct Deputy Brigadier Zhang to maintain frontal pressure with half a battalion of firepower, while the remaining musketeers turn their guns to the south and north wings; order Brigadier Zhao to deploy three heavy armored soldiers with spears and side soldiers as mobile reserves to intercept at any time
Enemy troops appearing on both sides."
Just as Di Lie's order was issued, ladders appeared on the south side of the chariot city, and then, enemy figures with bright armor flashed one by one.
"Well done! You're the one I've been waiting for!" The two female soldiers responsible for defending Nancheng are Zhao Yuqiang and Yang Tiao'er. Zhao Yuqiang covered her mouth and nose with a handkerchief while trying to open her eyes wide with tears filled with gunpowder smoke.
She did not dare to neglect her eyes for a moment. Her dedication to her duties was rewarded. As soon as Jin Jun appeared, she was immediately noticed.
Now, ignoring the smoke and coughing, I took a long breath, grabbed the bamboo whistle on my chest, and blew it down hard. In order to distinguish it from the sound of the Chinese army's war drums and shooting drums, the female soldier's attack command was temporarily changed to a whistle.
Anyway, there are not many female soldiers, and they are divided into two defense lines, the south and the north. On each side are half a battalion, with more than 200 people, and they can be commanded with whistles.
The sharp whistle, like the tip of a needle piercing the eardrum, frightened the female soldiers on the southern front of Zicheng. They instinctively pointed the loaded guns at the top of Checheng, aiming at the group of phantoms who thought they had picked up a big leak.
…
Di Lie's order has not yet been received. The female barracks has taken the initiative to block the enemy. Two hundred and forty muskets were fired in four stages. The sky was filled with projectiles, grains like beads. They pounced on the golden soldiers who were rushing to the city...
As one of the instructors of the female soldiers, Zhao Yuqiang is very clear about the female soldiers' shooting range training results: 50% of the female soldiers hit the target at 60 steps, 70% at 50 steps, and 90% at 30 steps. According to actual combat
The theory of reducing it by half, thirty steps, has at least a 50% hit rate. And the distance from the sub-city to the outer city is about thirty steps.
Before Tu Nian commanded his troops to ascend the city, he heard the constant gunfire from the west. The joy of a successful adventure filled his chest, and he thought that the plan had been sold. At that time, he desperately urged the Jin soldiers to climb up to Checheng as quickly as possible, but then
The deafening gunfire that followed shattered his luck.
Projectiles were flying around the head, and the vigorous figures that were flying up in front of Tu Nui's eyes one moment were falling from the top of their heads covered in blood the next moment. Some were killed before they fell, and some were only injured.
.However, if you fall from a height of nearly one foot without protection, and the landing posture is correct, you will inevitably lose your hands and feet; if your posture is incorrect and you fall upside down, you will not have to live.
In just a few breaths, you can rush up as much as you fall down.
Looking at the bloody corpses and the writhing and wailing wounded soldiers, I felt my heart bleed. These are all elite soldiers! If they were fighting hand-to-hand, the casualties of these dozens of warriors would be worth it.
How much was the enemy's loss? Two hundred or three hundred? But now, without even touching a hair of the enemy, they were killed and wounded in vain under this damn chariot city.
It doesn't matter how many of those Alixi servants died. Some of them were surrendered soldiers and civilians in the Southern Dynasty, and some of them were survivors of the old Liao Dynasty in the Yan Dynasty... However, these regular soldiers are all veterans of many battles, the seeds of the West Route Army.
!Most of them are Jurchen warriors. How many Jurchen warriors do I have in total in Dajin? Just die here worthlessly?!
As soon as one man showed his head, his helmet was knocked off and a piece of scalp was cut off from his gonial head. Muke Bojin, who was bleeding profusely, fell directly from the ladder and fell into two golden soldiers who were about to climb the ladder.
The gourd was rolling on the ground. But Muke Bo Jin didn't care about anything. He rolled and crawled to Tu Nian's feet, raised half of his bloody face, and wailed: "Meng'an Bo Jin, can't rush up, can't rush up!"
"
While he was talking, several more golden soldiers screamed and fell from their heads, bang! They fell to the ground, with dust flying and blood splattering everywhere.
A ball of dirty blood flew and splashed all over Tu Ni's face, but Tu Ni did not wipe it away. His eyes were attracted by a pair of side cards that rolled to his feet.
Suddenly, he bent down and picked up the side card. He saw that the protective plate, which was made of a finger-thick solid wood and covered with a layer of tough cowhide, had a finger-sized hole punctured in the middle.
There are also scorch marks...
"It's impossible to guard against it!" Tu twisted his head and threw down the sign. Suddenly he looked straight, grabbed a corpse from the chest, squatted down and turned it over for a while, then stood up and gave a decisive order: "Push all the corpses away."
Stack it on top of the chariot city and build a defensive structure!"
The Jin soldiers, who had been beaten down by the hail of bullets and whose courage was gradually dissipating, looked at each other for a while when they heard this unbelievable order. But after thinking about it, it seemed to be a good idea.
This command, which sounds a bit cruel and cold, actually works.
When lead bullets are injected into the human body, they will produce a cavity effect of flipping and spinning, causing serious damage to the human body's muscle tissue and organs. This intense damage to the body can instantly make a person lose their combat effectiveness, and then cause death due to severe pain and massive internal bleeding.
Death may occur quickly or slowly. The lead bullet injected into the human body has basically lost its kinetic energy after completing this "fatal mission" and cannot escape from the body. Therefore, human shields are indeed feasible.
So, while the Tianjiao female soldiers were dumbfounded, the corpses of Jin Bing on the top of the chariot city were getting higher and higher, and the pile was getting wider and wider... The projectiles hit this human flesh wall, except for a little bit of blood, and there was no smell of Jin Bing anymore.
The screams...
The duty of a soldier is to kill the enemy, not to torture corpses, especially female soldiers. Just as the female soldiers were getting weaker and more frightened, behind the wall of corpses, the sound of killing suddenly shook the sky, and the figures of countless golden soldiers emerged from both sides of the wall of corpses.
They surged out from the side, one after another, jumped out of the car city, and headed towards Zicheng to cover up... (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to come to Qidian.com to vote for recommendations and monthly votes. Your support is mine.
