Chapter 3573: The general attacks(1/2)
Chapter 3572: The Soldier Attacks the General
On the banks of Danshui, the battle is fierce.
Just ahead, Cao's soldiers came to kill the generals, with spears flying and swords flying.
Behind him were a Hussar soldiers rushed up, blocked the spear, and set off the sword.
A sword slashed a person, and the person suffered a lot and roared and slashed back.
The bones are broken.
Flesh and bloody.
The adrenaline secreted by both sides in a short period of time is influent and affecting each other, and even making people crazy.
The Cao army's front gradually could not hold on.
More and more Hussars rushed up.
Originally, the Cao army had a large number of soldiers, and they were fighting against Hussars, but with Liao Hua's arrival, more troops were added later, and the cooperative advantage between Hussars finally emerged.
On the battlefield, once the scene tilted, it is difficult to get back, but tilting does not mean overturning. Although Cao's army was forced to retreat by Hussars, it does not mean that Hussars can win.
After all, on the side of Danshui, Cao's army has a good location and has the lead, so it can also replenish its troops nearby.
The shouts of the comrades became louder and louder, gradually making Li Du excited. The originally slightly tired body seemed to have been injected with new strength again. The knife in his hand kept slashing, and blood splattered all over his face.
The smell of blood was everywhere, as if it had filled the gaps in the armor and blocked Li Du's nose, making him feel like he was swallowing blood with every breath.
Li also paid a considerable price to deal with the heavy armored soldiers of the Cao army before.
Although he eventually killed the heavily armored soldiers of Cao's army, he was still attacked by Cao's army.
At his ribs, I don’t know if the opponent’s blade cut the armor piece, or the opponent’s blade hit the armor piece and then hit his ribs again. Anyway, he felt that every step he took, there was a burning pain on his ribs.
But he had no time to take off his armor to check it out.
The soaked Mai pressed against his back, and she couldn't tell whether it was sweat or the oozing blood.
『Swoosh!』
Suddenly, a comrade in front fell to the ground and screamed in pain.
Li Du looked up and saw more than ten new Cao army archers in front of him, lined up in an array and shooting arrows at him.
Due to mountainous terrain, in many cases, large-scale troops cannot be extended, but the squad is more possessive. At this distance, bows and arrows are very lethal.
When Li Du saw a bow and arrow down, he shot down several comrades.
The archers also saw Li Du, and someone shouted and shot at Li Du.
Several arrows roared over, and Li Du blocked most of them with a shield, but an arrow still scratched Li Du's legs...
Somewhat cool.
『Shut!』
Faced with the new threat, Li Du rushed up to the place where these Cao army archers formed a formation without hesitation.
He completely forgot about his physical fatigue and the wound on his body was still bleeding.
He held the knife in his hand tightly, his face full of ferociousness, and roared angrily, "Kill!"
...
...
The strong smell of rust fills the nasal cavity, and the corpse stomping under its feet seeps out of warm intestinal fluid, mixing the unique fishy smell of the river bank, creating a space of death, covering the banks of the Danshui River.
When the arrow penetrates the flesh, it makes a muffled sound, and the screams of collision with metal come one after another. The whimper of the river in the distance appears and disappears in the sound of shouting and killing.
The Cao army is generally equipped with spears, after all, spears are cheap. However, in the current terrain, spears are not easy to use. Instead, they are swords and shields, which can attack and defend.
Although the spear can attack at a medium distance and can also use terrain to suppress and push the Hussar soldiers, compared with the sword shield, as long as it is close to a certain distance, the damage power of the spear is not as good as that of the sword.
Wang Er, a new recruit from Cao's left wing, retreated tremblingly, and his urine dripped on the mud along his pants. He suddenly threw away the spear in his hand and turned around to escape.
"Where are you going?!" The soldiers in the rear supervising team immediately shouted, "Get back!"
Wang Er, a new recruit from Cao's army, cried sadly, "Please, let me go... I have old people and children in my family..."
"I'll count three times! Go back!" The soldiers of the supervising team raised their swords and guns.
The cold light flashed on the sword and gun.
『I, I…』 Wang Er yelled, 『I don’t know how to kill people...I can’t, I can’t...』
The supervisory team walked forward and grabbed Wang Er's head, with cold eyes, "I'll give you a chance to... or not?!"
"I don't……"
Before Wang Er finished speaking, he was slapped on his neck by the soldiers in the supervision team.
Blood splattered out, dyeing the robes and armor of the supervising war red.
The soldiers in the supervision team were obviously veterans of killing. His sword didn't even have much effort, so he cut it into the gap between Wang Er's neck and spine, and then he circled, pulled, and cut, and Wang Er's head fell off.
The headless corpse fell to the ground with a thud and was still twitching slightly.
The old soldier of the supervision team raised a spear on the ground, stabbed Wang Er's head on the spear head, then inserted it in front of him, looked around, and looked at the other Cao army recruits who were vaguely looking at him.
"Fight forward! There is still a chance to survive! If you escape and retreat, you will be...death!"
The new recruits of Cao's army were trembling, pale and fearful, and had to tremble, holding up their spears and moving forward.
Spearmen, the cheapest consumable.
The spearmen under Cao Ren are well equipped. Even if they don’t have iron armor, they still have a piece of leather armor.
But compared with the soldiers of the Cavalry Army, it is much worse.
The current tactics of Cao's army are centered on individual heavy armored soldiers of Cao's army, equipped with a bunch of small miscellaneous hairs, and then archers and supervisors. Although this causes the overall team to have not been very combative, it can at least ensure that it will not collapse too quickly to a certain extent.
These are all summarized and improved by Cao Ren in the battle with Liao Hua little by little...
However, as long as the weak new recruits escaped from the guards of the elite heavy armor and lost their cooperation, they were easily strangled by the Hussar soldiers. After losing these mixed Mao Cao soldiers around them, they naturally fell into attacks in multiple directions. Even if they were wearing heavy armor and had extremely strong protection, they would inevitably become dead souls under the swords and guns of the Hussar soldiers.
Just as Cao Ren came with his men, he saw a team of Cao's army not far away being "sieged" by Hussar soldiers...
It was said to be a "siege", but in fact, there were more soldiers in the Cao army, but because the Hussars cooperated with each other well, the Cao army soldiers were suppressed and beaten and shrank.
"ah!"
A scream rang out.
As soon as the Hussars slashed, the leather armor on Cao's body cracked and blood gushed out.
Seeing that the array was about to collapse, Cao Ren shouted loudly and rushed up immediately with his guard.
Cao Ren's direct guards were naturally elite, almost crushing, and they killed the Hussar soldiers who rushed too far.
Cao Ren held a blood-stained battle knife and looked around the bank of Danshui.
These battle situations are everywhere.
Although Cao Ren maintained the collapse of the team in front of him, the other Cao army's fronts were also shaking.
He also saw Liao Hua, who was leading his soldiers under the hillside, and was centered on the landing site. He led his soldiers to spread around the landing site, and on the other hand, he built a temporary medical treatment place near the beach boats, gathering the wounded...
『…』
Cao Ren was silent for a moment.
It’s not that he didn’t know that Liao Hua’s approach would make the soldiers more confident, but he still couldn’t do it.
It is already the limit that Cao Ren can do to be able to gather some wounded people after the war. If he is like Liao Hua, while commanding the battle, he also takes care of the wounded people's treatment and collection, it is simply...
It was precisely because of Liao Hua's actions that although the Hussar soldiers saw Cao Ren and realized that Cao Ren was wearing heavy armor and had a guardian around him, it was difficult to chew on his hard bones. However, these Hussar soldiers were still more fierce than Cao Ren thought, without any fear, and someone rushed up directly.
Cao Ren frowned. Just now, he thought that as long as he killed Liao Hua, he would win this battle, but now his front line is almost destroyed...
Cao Ren felt a little angry in his heart, not knowing whether it was because of anger, worry, or...
Fear.
This is just a side army of cavalry!
"Send the order! Let the fire ship accelerate! Burn their retreat!"
...
...
Above the Danshui, Cao Ren's fireboat team came out of the hidden place and went upstream.
The old building boat was competing with Danshui, and the oars were trembling and making squeaking moans.
Captain Li held the sword tightly, looked at the soldiers on the side fighting ship, and was placing the prepared arrows in front of him...
The wind suddenly turned around, and the damp smell of algae came to his face. He remembered the day he left home, his wife stood at the ferry with a child under the age of one year in her arms, and the apricot blossom patterns on the cradle were trembling with the wind.
His children...
Captain Li suddenly realized that perhaps this was the reason why Cao Ren asked him to lead the fleet of this fire ship.
To be continued...
