Two hundred and sixty-eight chapters offensive and defensive encounter
Under Zhang Ding's command, all the soldiers of the Song Empire walked vigilantly in the rock mass formed by these chariots similar to Mongolian straits, and Zhang Ding also ordered all the cavalry to dismount and lean against the inside of the car with the infantry to prevent the enemy's attack. Perhaps some people would say that the cattle and horses that pulled the cart were completely exposed to the enemy's bows and arrows. You are right, so when the Ministry of Works built these box-type transport vehicles, it added slots that could be mounted on the two supporting beams of the vehicle. Finally, the Song army's mountain formation heavy infantry spear, which was more than four meters long, came out from these wall shields, and the entire convoy quickly turned into a thorny mobile fortress.
The convoy continued to move forward slowly. Sure enough, when he reached less than 500 meters ahead, a big tree as thick as a waist appeared in the middle of the road, and fell there. Seeing this, Zhang Ding was very convinced that there must be ambush on both sides of the road, so he immediately ordered his soldiers: "The commander, order everyone to enter the first-level combat readiness, and send someone to blow up the big tree in the middle of the road for me to use a grenade."
When the two soldiers rushed out of the car formation and rushed towards the tree, two sharp arrows suddenly shot out from the shadow of the jungle, shooting towards the two soldiers of the Song Kingdom.
"Arrowman, the explosion arrow covers the attack!!" When Zhang Ding saw two sharp arrows shooting out at the two soldiers he sent out, his super combat consciousness immediately ordered his soldiers to fire explosion arrows into the jungles on both sides.
The burst arrow is actually a bamboo tube similar to a grenade on the front of the arrow. With the advantage of the burst device, the burst arrow pulls the string at the moment it is fired, and then explodes in a few seconds. This can cause large-scale injury and even death of the enemy. After the self-explosion arrow was accidentally developed by the Ordnance Department, the bow and arrows similar to the burst arrows appeared in large numbers like mushrooms after the rain, such as tear gas, burning arrows, poisonous smoke arrows, etc. To give an example, the Song army tear gas arrows, this is an anesthetic mixed with a large amount of fine chili powder, and added a small amount of white phosphorus.
Finally, the explosive arrows stirred with gunpowder. Once this explosive arrow explodes, the rapid burning of chili powder with the help of white phosphorus can form an effect similar to tear gas. The anesthetic accompanied by it, after instant high temperature, quickly turns the surrounding air into an anesthetic area, which can greatly limit the movement ability of enemy soldiers. Moreover, the combustion of white phosphorus also has a sputtering effect, which can cause a large area to catch fire. After two rounds of explosion arrow attacks, Zhang Ding immediately ordered his soldiers to replace this tear gas arrow, and the burning arrows launch a crazy shooting on the surrounding forests.
"General, let's rush out and fight against those Song dogs. If we don't move, our soldiers will be killed by these people even if they are not careful of these Song people." A general under the tent of the Angkor dynasty in the dense forest opened his eyes that could not be opened by the thick smoke mixed with chili powder, and said with his eyes that looked tear-looking, looking at his general affectionately.
And Tuohadai could no longer stand this constant smoke environment. So he opened his tears, pulled out his waist and shouted to the soldiers under his command: "Brothers, rush, kill all the Song dogs--"
This was originally an ambush, an ambush by the Angkor Dynasty against the Song Empire, but the double shots have seemed to have become a sudden encounter.
When Zhang Ding saw the dense enemies rushing out of the jungle on both sides, he immediately pulled out the sword from his waist. Senior Master shouted and ordered his soldiers: "The mountain formation heavy armor forward, block them, spearmen, stabbing defense, and crossbowmen continued to shoot arrows..."
With the collision of the two sides, the mobile defensive vehicle array of the Song army had excellent defensive effects. However, with the increase in the number of Khmer soldiers, the transportation unit of the Song army was under great pressure. The heavy armored soldiers of the mountain formation were constantly killed by the opponent, and they rushed into the Song army's chariot and fight with the Song army's sword and shield hands in the chariot.
Between the sword and the shadows, the soldiers on both sides are constantly stalemate, and the cooperation between various branches of the Song army, the cooperation of the soldiers' team battle formations, and the rapid transformation between offense and defense all reflect the unparalleled team cooperation ability and combat awareness of the Song army.
Zhang Ding's two one-handed heavy Pu swords were arched left and right, and there was no survivor in the fan-shaped area three meters ahead. The thirty close iron guards following him, led by Zhang Ding, were like meat grinders that kept rushing forward. The long-handed Pu sword in his hand kept flying up and down, strangling all the enemies on his way forward to smash them.
"Zhang Fan." Zhang Ding took his iron guard to kill him next to a young general holding a silver spear and shouted loudly.
"Brother, do you have any instructions?" The youngest general named Zhang Fan is Zhang Ding's youngest brother. He is only 21 years old this year and entered the Imperial Military Academy at the age of fifteen. When he was 20 years old last year, he graduated from the academy with excellent results and was assigned to his elder brother Zhang Ding to train by the Ministry of War. This battle was the first real large-scale battle since he joined the army.
"Zhang Fan, have you seen the Khmer man wearing a feather crown on the edge of our army?" Zhang Ding and his younger brother kept slashing the Angkor soldiers around him back to back, and pointed at Tohada and said to his younger brother.
The bright silver spear in Zhang Fan's hand flew up and down, and the tip of the spear was like a peacock nodding. Every time he nodded, a Khmer soldier would fall down, "I saw the eldest brother."
"I have predicted that this person is the commander of the Khmer people this time. You will immediately lead your personal soldiers and twenty-eight iron guards under my tent to kill him and carry out beheading this person. I will immediately order the archers to cover you."
"Brother, I want to take your guard away. What should I do if you are safe!"
"Brother, do you still not know my strength? Execute the order."
As Zhang Ding finished speaking, Zhang Fan waved his hand and took his brother's dear to kill him.
After Zhang Fan led his men to kill Tuohadai, Zhang Ding shouted loudly to a Song general near him: "Baotie."
"The last general is here, what command does the general have?"
"Take your men out of the open space nearby and hold it down, I found the enemy's coach, I need archers to cover our commando."
"Don't worry, General, I will execute it immediately." After receiving Zhang Ding's order, Bao Tie took his imperial soldiers and quickly formed a circle and cleaned up all the Khmer soldiers inside and outside the circle. The two steel whips in Bao Tie's hand were instantly dancing like a golden bell cover, and Bao Tie, which was as strong as a black iron tower, was even more violently pushing forward like a human bulldozer. All Khmer soldiers blocking Bao Tie's road to advance were all hit by the steel whip that was constantly waving in Bao Tie's hands and were hit into pieces by Bao Tie's whip in Bao Tie's hands.
