Chapter 531: The Pontoon Bridge Sets Up the Golden Beam (2)

The big head of the wooden hammer made a "crackling" sound when it came into contact with the iron log, and the tip of the wooden stake was against the silt at the bottom of the river, and with these few vigorous hammer blows, the pointed head drilled into the silt, and soon, without help, these wooden stakes were also fixed, and the pontoon bridge, which had just become shaky with the impact of the flowing water, was also much more stable at once.

In just a moment's effort, the first section of the three pontoon bridges was so well fixed in the water, the soldiers of the Jin army broke out a burst of cheers, and hundreds of fresh troops continued to carry the three sections of the second pontoon bridge, shouting the trumpet, taking neat steps, trotting all the way, rushing towards the bridge deck where the hammer wrestlers had just evacuated, running to the end of the first pontoon, and then sliding the second section of the pontoon bridge from their shoulders into the water.

The sergeants of the Jin army used the ropes in their hands to pull back the second pontoon bridge floating in the water, and connected it with the break of the first pontoon, and then quickly nailed the joint between the two pontoon bridges with wooden planks, while the shirtless warriors in the water touched the side of the boat and swam to both sides of the second pontoon.

The soldiers on the bridge threw some pointed logs that were longer than the first time into the water like busy ants, and these shirtless men stuck the logs into the riverbed beside them, holding the edge of the boat with one hand, stepping on the water to keep their body balanced, and holding the log on the one hand, keeping their heads pointed and down, creating conditions for the hammer blows of the sledgehammer hands.

Landing on the opposite bank, the temptation of rewarding the meritorious generals stimulated these warriors, although the ice was still floating on the river, the biting cold made them unable to speak, the thick lard could not completely maintain their body temperature, many people's lips had been frozen purple, but no one flinched, there was only one belief in their hearts: build a bridge, force the crossing, and win the office!

Looking at the actions of the Jin army, Mao Dang's brows furrowed tightly, the width of the water is about two hundred steps, as long as the pontoon bridge is erected in such a section, then it only takes less than an hour, and the ten sections of pontoon bridges are connected, and you can go directly to the east bank.

Fu Rong's expression was also very serious, but it looked more relaxed than Mao Dang, the corners of his mouth hooked, and he smiled: "After a long time, it turned out to be like this to build a pontoon bridge, I thought they could have any new tricks." ”

Mao Dang sighed: "The Jin army is better than directly building a ship, now their pontoon bridge is out of our range, our army can't shoot with bows and arrows, or move the catapult forward and smash them, I think now their catapults have stopped firing." That's when we were in full swing. ”

A trace of cold killing intent flashed in Fu Rong's eyes: "No, the catapult is in the right position, I just want them to build the bridge to more than half, and then fly all over the sky!" ”

On the high platform of the Jin army, Liu Muzhi looked at the hot scene in front of him, nodded slightly, the Qin army camp on the opposite side was still quiet, but the wooden platoons that were originally on the head had all been taken down, and the auxiliaries who were not wearing armor and wearing white turbans were hurriedly dragging the wounded and dead in the crowd back, looking at it from a distance, it was still a sea of earthy yellow people, and the Qin archers wearing earthy yellow leather armor and yellow scarves were full of thirty or forty thousand people, lying motionless behind the fence, all looking at the rear generals with blank eyes, Wait for the order to shoot.

Liu Muzhi sighed softly: "This general of the Qin army can also calm down, our army has built a bridge like this, he has no reaction, General Liu, I'm afraid you still have to be fully prepared." ”

Liu Gaozhi gritted his teeth: "There is nothing to prepare, that's it, in front of us, three pontoon bridges have been erected, I expected that after the middle of the river, when they enter the range of Qin's bows and arrows, they will carry out a bow and arrow attack, and when the time comes, they can't say, only to fill in with human lives." Pass my command, the sergeant who boarded the bridge, there is no advance or retreat, if there is anyone who runs back from the bridge without hearing the sound of the gold, behead! ”

Looking at the back of the herald who quickly ran out, Liu Muzhi shook his head, looked back at the "Liu" character general banner that had almost stagnated at this moment, and said: "General Liu, the wind has stopped, if the Qin army attacks with rockets for a while, what can it do?" ”

Liu Gaozhi smiled slightly, pointed to several sections of pontoon bridges that were being transported forward in the military formation, and said: "Liu joined the army, have you seen it, these pontoon bridges that were transported over later, the surface is coated with mud, although it will affect the speed of some running, but it can be fireproof, and this bridge is on the river, if you really hit the rocket, let the sergeants take water to extinguish the fire, it is not so easy to burn out, as long as it drags on for half an hour, my 30,000 Chinese army has crossed the river bank and stood still, and you can create opportunities for the army behind!" ”

The corners of Liu Muzhi's mouth hooked, and he wanted to say that if there were too many corpses and the pontoon bridge was blocked, what should I do? But when the words came to his lips, he still stopped it, after all, this battle was fought by Liu Gaozhi, and it had been carried out to this point, and there was no turning back, and now he said it himself, it was just to increase his troubles, and it was useless.

While the two were talking, the sixth section of the pontoon bridge had been erected, and when they reached the center of the water, the shirtless warriors who were holding the piles in the water also changed the third group, after all, they were soaking in the frozen river water, and no matter how much lard they wiped, they could only keep out the cold for a while, and after receiving the two sections of the pontoon, these strong men in the water had to swim back to the shore, and another group of people went on again, and the people who went ashore poured the hot ginger soup that had been prepared long ago, and the whole river bank was a hot and spicy taste.

But Liu Muzhi's eyes were not on the bodies of these light pig warriors who swam back to the shore at all, his eyes were staring at the general platform opposite Qin, the figures of Fu Rong and Mao Dang were clearly visible, but the two of them did not have the meaning of action, the more so, the more Liu Muzhi felt a chill, the enemy still did not fire bows and arrows after entering the range, which made people feel more bottomless than the current ten thousand arrows.

The sound of the nail wood of the "horn" sounded, the eighth section of the pontoon bridge has been connected, the Jin army in the water sounded bursts of cheers, the Qin people on the opposite side are still not moving, seeing that the Jin army on the bridge is only more than forty steps offshore, the distance between the two sections of the pontoon bridge is completely within the range of the bow and arrow, even if it is shot with a hanging, it can kill a large number of injuries, but the Qin army formation is still immovable, and the Qin archers behind the fence are still holding their breath and staring.
