Chapter 1379: The Last Fight (Part 2)

After rushing through the coverage of artillery and breaking through the strike interface of the catapult, the charge of Yizhou light infantry and light cavalry were reduced by at least one-third.

But for survivors, after crossing this death line, the war returned to the familiar scenes they had.

The scattered formations began to gather, and the primitive beastlike nature in the heart, aroused by death and blood, burst out completely. They howled and charged towards the defensive formation that was as stable as mountains and dense as forests in front.

The powerful crossbow seemed so harsh when it broke through the air.

Countless crossbow arrows rushed towards them like swarms of bees.

Like being harvested wheat, the soldiers of Yizhou fell to the ground one after another.

But at this distance, they can finally fight back.

The crossbow arrows in their hands began to fire towards the opposite side. The cavalry riding on the horse waved the rope pockets in their hands vigorously. The rope pockets were filled with clay pots, and the pots were filled with hot tinder. The fastest update is computer terminal::/

With the help of horsepower, he used all his strength to throw the round-dance rope pocket out and flew towards the dense formation opposite.

Some fell on the big shield, and the oil splashed, and the entire big shield ignited in an instant. Some fell on the formation and splashed on the soldiers, and the soldiers turned into a fireball in the blink of an eye.

The large shield on fire was quickly thrown away, and a new shield stood up again. The fired people retreated backwards with screams and arrived at the open space. The soldiers who had prepared long ago raised sand and covered it. Such a fire could not be extinguished by other methods. Only by isolating it from the outside world can it be effective.

More crossbow arrows aimed at the light cavalry.

Some light cavalrymen were shot when they just lit the pot and swung it up. The pot was broken, and the burning fire covered the bodies of people and horses. The people rolled on the ground and howled, but the war horses were neighing with the blazing flames and running forward like crazy.

More crossbow arrows were shot out, some war horses fell to the ground halfway, while others rushed to the military formation with the last bit of force. The unbearable pain of the war horses could no longer tell whether it was dangerous, so they bumped into it.

The long spears that extended stabbed them into their bodies, and the gun rod broke in an instant, and the soldiers shouted and retreated from the line. This impact force was definitely not something that human power could stop.

Some war horses hit the big shield, directly hitting the soldiers behind them, breaking their tendons and bones, falling to the ground and spitting blood and dying.

The light infantry finally got the opportunity at this time and rushed to the front of the military formation.

What greeted them was the spear that kept stabbing.

They swung the sword and hit the big shield. Some of them pressed their bodies onto the big shield. When the blade poked out behind the big shield stabbed them, they also stabbed the knife in their hands through the gap.

Liu Chenglin stood on the high platform, looking at the fierce battle ahead with expressionless expression. Those who died and were injured were constantly transferred from the platform to the field hospital behind. His eyes did not turn, but stared at the steel Great Wall that was slowly moving forward behind him.

The above are just some appetizers. Whether these light cavalry or light infantry, they cannot shake his military formation at all. These people are just cannon fodder, they are cannon fodder that consumes his cannon shells and crossbows.

The real vitality has not yet appeared.

It’s just that the number of cannon fodder was a little too large, which caused some trouble to his front-line troops.

It is extremely luxurious to invest tens of thousands of people in such an attack at one time.

Zhu Youzhen was indeed crazy and desperate.

The artillery had stopped bombarding, and only the catapult was still attacking one after another.

After several rounds of continuous shooting, the cannon body needs to be cooled, and they have more important tasks next.

"General, General Liu Changfeng from the left wing sent a signal to ask the cavalry to attack!" An officer on the general's platform reported loudly.

"Let him wait!" Liu Chenglin said impatiently.

They are all veterans, and they are still so impatient. Can’t I clearly judge the situation in front of me?

The Yizhou soldiers are indeed good at fighting and have extremely strong tolerance. At this time, what other functions can they do besides making the stalemate even more stalemate?

In the final analysis, the generals and officers of the First Corps still look down on their opponents from the bottom of their hearts and expect to defeat them?

This kind of thinking is at least undesirable today.

The opponent's troops on the front main battlefield are three times that of his own, and on the flank, they are more than twice that of his own army.

Consumption, continuous consumption, and continuous impact on opponents' confidence is the way to win.

No matter how brave a person is, his heart will eventually grow from flesh, and he will feel fear and powerless.

The light cavalry and light infantry in the front were still fighting to the death, while the main force behind was also slowly advancing forward. There were countless stone cannon cars and crossbows sandwiched among their team.

Cao Bin, who was responsible for commanding the front line, placed the heavy cavalry at the front.

This is an unconventional way of combat.

But Liu Chenglin understood that the other party was an extraordinary move that could not be done.

He wanted to use heavy cavalry to shake the Tang army's military formation, and he also wanted to use heavy cavalry to attract the Tang army's intentions. He wanted to push his powerful crossbow and stone cannon cart closer to the range and then bombard the Tang army. Only in this way can he truly tear open the Tang army's defense line.

Should we deal with heavy cavalry first, or these powerful crossbows and stone cannon vehicles first, is a multiple-choice question for Liu Chenglin.

Ordinary crossbows cannot threaten these heavy riders.

No matter how thick the shield is, it cannot withstand the charge of these heavy cavalry.

Soon, Liu Chenglin gave the answer.

He chose to ignore the heavy cavalry, but instead concentrated all his firepower to attack the more heavily formed armored soldiers in the rear, as well as the powerful crossbows and stone cannon vehicles mixed with the soldiers.

The heavy cavalry immediately started the charge of maximum speed.

In front of the Tang army, a black torrent of steel hit the face, and the mountain-like pressure was instantly transmitted to every soldier.

"Strike!" On the front line, a young officer stood up suddenly and drew his sword and pointed at him.

The shield formation suddenly opened, and two groups of Tang soldiers rushed out from behind the shield formation.

While running, they ran away to both sides. These people didn't even bring a horizontal knife. They held an iron rod tightly in their hands, and the top of the iron rod was wrapped with a thin steel rope. The two of them pulled a wire rope like this and faced the torrent of steel rushing forward as if they were home.

The ending of these Tang soldiers is obvious. There is only one way to greet them, and that is sacrifice. Those who can survive such an occasion are definitely the darling of God.

Without surprise, they fell silently under the charge of the heavy cavalry, but the next moment, the team of the heavy cavalry suddenly became chaotic.

Some of the sharp wire ropes directly cut off the horse's hooves, and some of them did not have time to unfold, but they were wrapped around the horse's hooves. After running forward a few more steps according to inertia, the horse hit the ground heavily.

More Tang soldiers rushed out of the shield formation. Unlike the first group of people, these people were holding long spears and spears, constantly stabbing heavy cavalry that slowed down. Behind them were some Tang soldiers swung the weapons like short meteor hammers in their hands and kept throwing them out. The horse legs of these heavy cavalry were still attacking.

Even so, there were still a large number of heavy riders who escaped the entanglement in front and rushed into the shield formation heavily.

Unlike light cavalry, wherever these heavy cavalry went, they were really overturned by people and horses. In an instant, they drove a road in the thick military formation until they were no longer able to move forward and were stabbed off the horse by the Tang soldiers around them with spears.

The defensive formation on the front battlefield of the First Corps was concave inward.

The heavy cavalry in Yizhou fought desperately along this point, trying to break through the Tang army's army formation and directly attack the flag of the First Legion flying in the distance.

Near the midline of the battlefield, the powerful crossbows and stone cannon vehicles of Yizhou soldiers survived the attacks of the Tang army's artillery and catapults. At this moment, they began to exert force. On the battlefield, strong crossbows as thick as arms roared and went, and the stone bullets fell down like rain.

Liu Chenglin didn't care at all that his central army was in a critical situation. He believed that his subordinates would be able to block the opponent's impact from the front. In his sight, the strong crossbows, stone cannons and other long-range weapons on the opposite side were destroyed one after another under the fierce bombardment of his side.

After interrupting their successor support, the previous ones became water without a source and tree without roots, and it would not last long.

On the general's platform, a general looked at Liu Chenglin, then raised his spear and got down silently. After a while, the general led a team of about a hundred soldiers in front of the general's platform and rushed into the most dangerous point.

A quarter of an hour later, another general who stayed by Liu Chenglin got off the general.

On the left wing, Liu Changfeng looked anxiously at the direction of the Jiangtai, and the command flag there was still motionless.

As time slowly passed, the last heavy cavalry was first stabbed into the throat by a gun, and then dozens of long spears pierced into his body, and actually lifted him up in the air. In the air, he looked at the generals not far away, just a little bit away. If he could give him another breath, he would be able to rush under the generals.

No matter whether you can make the final contribution or not, as long as you rush there, you can shake the Tang army's army.

What a pity, it was a little bit worse.

The blood-covered guard general returned to the platform with a spear, bowed to Liu Chenglin, and then stood to the side silently.

On the opposite side, Cao Bin closed his eyes and two lines of tears slid down silently.

The Yizhou general who just died in battle was his own son.

Opening his eyes and wiped away the tears, Cao Bin turned around and looked at Zhu Youzhen, who was fluttering on the table behind him, and suddenly bent down and pulled up the horse spear that was inserted on the side, yelling: "Follow me!"
