Chapter 0213 Breakthrough
From the head of Chao County, you can clearly see dozens of dense fire and rain in the deep positions of the Dahua Army flying towards the distance. It is a swarm of dozens of bees of various sizes equipped by the Dahua Army. At the same time, it can also be clearly seen that the shooting direction of 'a swarm of bees' is basically concentrated in two places in the eastern section. That is the direction of the breakthrough of the Dahua army.
The Horn sounded again, and the sound of killing outside the city was shocking. Zhang Xianzhong, who had been avoiding fire and rushing forward in the trench, rushed again, gave up cover and started to rush. At the same time, the city was also killing, and a steady stream of people poured out from the southeast gates and joined the attack on the Dahua army. The two suspension bridges limit the speed of passage, but hundreds of bodies previously killed by the Dahua army blocked the not deep moat under the suspension bridge. At this time, these bodies formed a human bridge, and many people simply stepped on the bodies directly and rushed across the moat.
The focus of the battlefield seems to be concentrated on the Eastern Front, which is the main force led by Huang Degong. Huang Degong is Zhou Zijin's cronies. He is the son of Grandpa's family, with nearly 100,000 troops and well-equipped equipment. Liu Liang's headquarters on the southern line is very different, with less than 50,000 troops and much worse than firearms.
At this time, although the southern line is not the direction of Zhang Xianzhong's key attack, it is still under great pressure. The number of troops is already small, and the equipment such as firearms is much worse than that of Huang Degong, and the situation of Liu Liang of the Dahua Army on the southern line is even more critical.
"Your/mother's Huang Degong ran away without saying anything. This is for us to put his back!" On the depth of the Dahua army on the southern line, on a small mound, a Dahua general in armor was jumping and cursing.
In front of the firelight, under the cover of the city's artillery, enemy troops like a tide of cockroaches flocked in the distance. The Dahua soldiers who had nowhere to retreat fought desperately in one trench after another, but were soon submerged by the fierce tide of black pressure. It won't be long before the Chinese army on the southern front will collapse.
"General! Break through! If it is delayed again, it will be over!" A deputy general shouted.
The jumping general is Liu Liangzuo, who is a general soldier. He was originally a figure like Huang Degong. Since Zhuo Yin retired, Zhou Zijin gained momentum. There is naturally pride and loss when you choose to stand aside. Huang Degong and Liu Liangzuo are among them.
"The breakout? How to break through! Not to mention that Huang Degong doesn't have a military order, even if he has to break out of the siege, how we can get out of trouble!" Liu Liangzuo shouted. Looking at the ambush in the daytime, you will know that the situation is not good. In the distance, Zhang Xianzhong's ambush on the back road of the southern line obviously exceeded 10,000. In the case of Zhang Xianzhong's main pursuit, it is not easy for more than 40,000 people to break through the encirclement. Only when the East-West line of the position is connected can the Chinese army join forces to break out of the siege. However, Huang Degong didn't even say hello and had to run away. He still had a chance to have a nest of excellent firearms, but Liu Liangzuo didn't.
However, if you don't break through, you have to break through, and you won't die here. Moreover, Liu Liang's headquarters is composed of his own army and several guards. There is no problem for more than 10,000 of them to control them. At this moment, the generals of the Ministry of Guard are already panicked and looking around. If you don't leave, you will definitely disperse.
"Damn it. Order! The former town refused to accept it, and the whole army attacked to the south!" Liu Liangzuo was distressed for a while. It was impossible for him to make the rear of the guard. Thousands of soldiers in the former town were his subordinates. I'm afraid that there were not many people who could come back to cover the breakthrough of the brigade this time. "Oh, how much can be highlighted?" A long sigh showed his helplessness.
More than a dozen deputy generals were overjoyed to hear the words and shouted and mobilized one after another. It was time to run away. If they didn't run, it would be too late.
The Dahua army on the southern line barely gathered, shouted, and ran to the south. At last, they could basically distinguish the establishment. As soon as they broke out, the soldiers left in the former town immediately fell into despair. Some soldiers left their swords and shouted for surrender, but they were cut down by the red-eyed soldiers of the other side and died in vain. Seeing that there was no way to live, these soldiers became crazy and unexpectedly withstood the impact of Zhang Xianzhong's department for a moment.
In the south, Zhang Xianzhong's ambush has been built for a day outside two miles. Except for last night's chaos, they have not attacked all day. At this time, they were already ready to eat and drink.
Liu Liang's headquarters is usually stationed in Jiangnan, mostly infantry battalions. At this time, the soldiers of the brigade went straight to the ambushes while barely maintaining the establishment. Under the hazy moonlight, in the approaching screams behind him, the panic, confusion and even despair on the faces of the Dahua soldiers were faintly visible. The short charge seemed to have exhausted all their physical strength, and the thin armored helmet on their bodies has become a burden at this moment.
In the distance, there was a sound of bows and strings, and the dim moon sky was even darker. The rain-like strong crossbows roared down. A large number of Dahua soldiers screamed and fell to the ground, and their shields that only cared for desperate charge became furnishings.
Zhang Xianzhong's arrows, which had been waiting for a long time, were like rain. Only with long-range firepower, they dispersed the three infantry battalions of Liu Liang's headquarters, and the inevitable first heavy military breakthrough and charge completely lost the momentum of the impact. Hundreds of Dahua soldiers who luckily rushed through the rain of arrows and hit the front of the battle desperately found that in the trenches with only a few dozen steps in front of them stood up a row of enemies with strong bows.
"Bang~~", in a ferocious order, countless flying feathers shot straight over, and the soldiers heard the terrible sound of their bodies being penetrated by arrows in their ears, and then they lost all their feelings. A big man with a machete and shouted angrily against the arrow rain. A white feather crossbow was shooting into the abdomen. The big man staggered, but did not fall down. He raised the steel knife in his hand and shouted and continued to rush up. There were no comrades-in-arms around, and this lonely figure staggered forward. The shouting stopped abruptly, and another arrow was nailed to his chest, and the tail feather was still buzzing and trembling. The big man seemed to be unaware of it, one step, two steps. Grab, grab~~~" He looked down at his chest. The big man's footsteps softened and slowly knelt on the right place. The steel knife in his hand inserted into the ground with difficulty, sighed, and slowly lowered his head.
Liu Liangzuo witnessed this scene. The charge of the three infantry battalions did not even enter the opponent's position, and the hurried breakthrough made 40,000 people fall into an extremely passive situation.
Looking up at the sky, the crescent moon in the sky was gently staring. Behind him, the shouts and screams were like life-threatening spells. In front of him, the enemy's position was full of people, as if a giant beast was smiling gutterly.
Life and death are tonight, and survival is only one blow.
Liu Liangzuo, who was forced to a dead end, calmed down instead, and a few three-eyed lances were transferred to the front army, and a small number of cavalry were also mobilized. At the same time, four infantry battalions turned back to sniper the main force of Zhang Xianzhong, who had been killed, and the rest threw away their burdens and even armor and followed the cavalry.
If you can't break through the local position with one blow, the only thing waiting for everyone is to die. Be a prisoner? Eight kings never capture.
The brigade began to move forward slowly and gradually accelerated, and the cavalry of the former army also fell down.
"ping~~~", the three-eyed gun burst into a flashing Thunderbolt, three shots, and threw it away directly. The fire gun directly picked up the scattered spears and machetes.
With the firing of the three-eyed gun, a series of wails suddenly broke out on the enemy's position. A large number of local soldiers fell one after another, and the gunners themselves were stunned. When did the three-eyed gun have such great power and range?
And the cavalry riding on the horse can see farther. faintly, hundreds of steps away from the rear of the enemy's position, there is a flash of fire.
