Compared with the hit rate of the old trenchers of the Chu army, the strike range of the new trenchers of the Ming army was like being measured with a ruler. Every time the stone bullets flew over, they attacked the Chu army's walls several meters high. Even if there was a deviation, the deviation would not exceed one meter. However, the effect of this deviation was more shocking than that of these trenchers hitting high walls, because they fell into the dense group of soldiers under or behind the walls, and each time they took several lives.

Nie Kailin soon discovered this in horror. If this high wall was not covered with a layer of stone, the wall made of rammed earth would have long been unable to reach such an attack. The Ming army's strategic intention was very obvious, to destroy the high wall first.

"Suppress, all the catapults, extend the shooting, kill those quivering people for me." Nie Kailin yelled loudly.

The old-fashioned trencher recalibrated the firing distance. The stone bombs flying in the sky suddenly disappeared, and the Ming army advanced forward without any suppression immediately accelerated. The tall wooden boards moved forward quickly, pushing the low walls in front of the trench, without any hesitation, they leveled the wooden veins.

Amid the loud rumbling sound, the wooden boards brought countless smoke and dust, covering the trench and turning it into a smooth road. Teams of Ming soldiers yelled and climbed over the high walls, and launched a direct attack on the Nandaying on the bridge made of wooden rafts.

From the beginning of the war to the present, the Ming army has begun to contact the foundation of the Chu army in just one incense stick.

"Crimage the trenches and burn them to roast pigs! Tapping machine, fucking trencher, hurry up." Nie Kailin roared and gave the order.

Rockets flew down from the high walls and fell into the trench from the gap between the wooden rafts. The flames burned. In an instant, the entire trench was ignited, and the thick smoke that covered the sky and the sun rose, and all the scenes on the battlefield became blurred.

The Ming soldiers rushed over the burning wooden raft like crazy tigers. At this time, the fire wall had been formed, and fireworks were bursting out between the gaps of the wooden rafts. When these soldiers rushed over the wooden rafts, many of them almost became fire people.

The huge pain made these people lose their last sanity. They waved their swords and guns and rushed towards the rows of bright spears coming towards them, and then were picked down and fell into the burning flames behind them. Some people were lucky enough to rush into the opposite gun forest from some gaps. That was because the stone bullets flying from the smoke drove the Chu army in these places out of the gaps one by one. They rushed in, roaring and waving the swords and guns in their hands, causing waves of chaos in the Chu army formation, and then like a stone thrown into the water, after stirring up waves of ripples, they returned to peace.

One after another, the rushing chariots approached the earth wall. After a slight stop, they lifted the crossbow on the car without hesitation and started shooting indiscriminately into the flames and smoke.

Because the sound of fighting from the opposite side gradually lowered, this means that there were very few soldiers left in the first batch of soldiers who rushed in, and they didn't have to worry about hurting their own people by chance.

The crossbow roared, and more than ten centimeter-long iron crossbow arrows sprayed out of the crossbow at lightning speed, penetrated the thick smoke and fire, and poured out his anger towards the Chu army.

At this time, they were only fifty steps away from the Chu army opposite. This distance gave the crossbow arrows fired by the crossbow machine an extremely powerful destructive ability. They easily tore the armor on the Chu army and shot the Chu army row by row under the high wall.

"Stand up the shield!" The Chu army is not unfamiliar with this kind of shooting sound. The officers from the Fire Phoenix Army who participated in the Jinghu Battle know that it was the most powerful melee weapon of the Chu army. Unfortunately, the crossbows that the Ming army supported the Chu army were all equipped to the eastern army, and now, the eastern army has long become their enemy. Although the Fire Phoenix Army has obtained some, it is very small and it is difficult to drive into combat effectiveness. After the masters of the Chu State broke up the crossbows and studied and copied them, they found painfully that the Chu State's iron smelting and steelmaking level could not afford the task of making this thing.

A batch that is barely made is often damaged in less than three to five days and is not popular with the army.

When the Ming army provided these weapons to the Chu army, they probably had already expected today. No wonder they provided these weapons directly to the army of Jinghu and never had the hands of the Chu court.

Everything was planned, but now I understand it, but it's too late.

The huge shield stood up, blocking the dense crossbow arrows on the opposite side, but under the high wall, blood had already flowed into a river, including Ming and Chu.

The fire became stronger and stronger, and the smoke became thicker. Among the fireworks, no Ming army rushed over. The Chu army could not see clearly what was going on opposite side. The soldiers from both sides confronted each other through such a fire wall, except for the stone bombs flying in the sky and the roaring sound of powerful crossbows.

As for whether the target was hit, no one knew. Both sides were shooting blindly.

Nie Kailin knew very well that such blind shots were too disadvantageous for him, because the Ming army could move, and the Nandaying was here, and the high wall was erected here. With such a calibration of the Ming army, the rest of the time would be enough to bombard their goals.

In fact, this is true. There are many stone trenchers in Nandaying, but the effect of the stone bombs dropped at this time is completely unaware of. However, the stone bombs hit on the opposite side have indeed landed near the high wall one by one. In many places, huge cracks have appeared. Even the rammed earth wall wrapped in stone cannot withstand such continuous bombardment.

When rows of red balls rose among the smoke and fire, they fell into the Nanda Camp, with a rumbling sound, destroying everything they had destroyed and causing fires all over the sky, Nie Kailin knew that the other party's thunder fire had already moved in place.

The camp was in a mess, and the soldiers were carrying bags of sand and soil to extinguish the fire. Fortunately, Nandaying had known a powerful weapon like the Thunder Fire, and a thick layer of sand had been laid in the camp. These sands can not only buffer the impact of the burning iron bombs, but also play a role in extinguishing the fire.

The Ming army's crossbow machine seemed to know that the Chu army on the opposite side had already been prepared. If it was intensively shot, it would not have any effect. It had stopped this unnecessary shooting. However, from time to time, a crossbow arrow emerged from the fireworks. However, from the shooting angle, they had turned to attack the Chu army archers on the high wall.

Such shooting will have too much intimidation. As long as you don’t have bad luck, it will basically not have any effect.

To be honest, Nie Kailin envied the Ming army's weapons and equipment. No matter how good the archer is, his arms will be sore and weak after shooting dozens of arrows in a row. How could the crossbow machine like the Ming army, which can be tirelessly shot continuously. At this level, the Chu army was completely suppressed. Nie Kailin knew very well that once the smoke was dispersed and the fire was extinguished, the Ming army had a clear goal, and the archers he laid on the high wall would not even be able to lift their heads.

Above head, the fire bombs shot in from the thunder fire were still flying in the air. It seemed that there was a rain of fire above the Nandaying, and the range of the opponent's trench was extending step by step towards the distance. The sky above the Nandaying seemed to be falling.

This is not possible. Nie Kailin looked at his trencher, although he was fighting back desperately, but they had no target at all and had no idea how effective his shooting was.

He jumped onto the war horse and headed straight for the central army.

"General Lan, we must fight back." Nie Kailin said firmly. "Use cavalry and launch a counterattack immediately when the power of the fireworks is weakened, otherwise we will be passively beaten. Once the opponent's thunder fire is approaching a certain range, our catapults will not be able to be saved. Their firing speed is too fast and we will destroy our catapults and crossbows one by one. Without these, we will completely become a passively beaten situation."

"Now the counterattack, the effect is not good." Lan Sixin frowned.

"General Lan, our purpose is not to kill their infantry. If possible, I want to repel them and be able to seize some of the enemy's catapults or thunderbolt fires. These things are available to us. Moreover, the enemy will not expect us to launch a counterattack at this time. The cavalry will attack quickly and the infantry will then cover them. Even if we cannot get these things, we can destroy them and teach the Ming army a lot of lessons and make them have some concerns."

Lan Sixin was moved by Nie Kailin and nodded: "Okay, that's it, but I can only give you a thousand cavalry, and then paired with your former battalion soldiers to launch a counterattack."

The fire was weakening, but the thick smoke was more dense. It was the Chu army consciously pouring something into the trench. At this time, they needed smoke to block their next action. Nie Kailin stared at the cavalry officer in front of him and whispered: "The target is the opponent's catapult, thunder fire, and even crossbow machines. Your mission is to assault forward and buy a little time for the infantry behind him. If things are not done, find a way to destroy these things."

"I understand." The cavalry officer nodded vigorously. One thousand cavalry and three thousand infantry were all the forces of this counterattack.

"Strike!" Nie Kailin decisively issued an order to attack.
