Chapter Fifty-Nine: The Stone Bridge Attack and Defense, and the Scythe of Death
(The chapter in the morning is heavy, and I'll make up another chapter for everyone in the evening!) It was my fault, but I made up for it immediately! You can forgive me! )
After suffering a loss, the officers and soldiers immediately began to advance forward again, trying to rush into the formation of the Xingtian Army before the Xingtian Army's musketeers could fire again, making the Xingtian Army's firecrackers become deaf ears.
As soon as the officers and troops began to march, their disadvantages were suddenly revealed, they lacked training in drills, and as soon as they moved, they began to look a little chaotic, hundreds of people crowded together in a chaotic manner, moving their legs and advancing forward, without the neatness of the Xingtian army as a whole.
The two armies were getting closer and closer, and suddenly there were a few more roars on the side, and the nine-headed birds that were originally placed on the side of the road by Xiao Tianjian also fired, and a clump of lead flew into the official army formation, and immediately put down a few officers and soldiers, and without waiting for the officers and soldiers to be distracted to deal with them, the soldiers who operated these nine-headed birds immediately put away their guns and brackets, and quickly retreated to the rear of the military formation, without reloading at all, which made the officers and soldiers angry and scolded, but they couldn't help them.
Although the damage caused by a few nine-headed birds is limited, it is the sword players at the front of the official army who are overturned, and the knife players of the official army are all the elite of the army, and they belong to the people who dare to fight hand-to-hand in close combat.
It was this time that gave the firecrackers of the Xingtian Army another precious time, they completed another reload at a distance of twenty paces from the official army, and with Feng Gouzi's order, they quickly flattened the bird's gun, so close, there was no need to aim at all, and they collectively opened fire again.
This salvo was even sharper, and at such a close range, even if the officers and soldiers on the opposite side were holding shields, they could not stop the flying projectiles, and one by one the projectiles directly penetrated the shields in the hands of the officers and soldiers and hit the officers and men.
As if swept by a giant sickle, the front of the officers and soldiers was suddenly knocked over a row of people, this time at least more than 30 people, who were shot and fell in front of the officer and army array, which made the officers and soldiers behind them even more panicked, pushing each other, stepping past these fallen officers and soldiers in front of them, screaming and rushing towards the Xingtian Army array, at this time there was no formation for a long time, and the entire official army formation became a swarm.
"Torch pistol on the shoulder, retreat into battle!" After this round of volleys, Feng Gouzi didn't let the firecracker reload again, and immediately ordered loudly.
This row of musketeers turned sideways, squeezed into the back row from between the sword players, and then quickly passed through them from among the pikemen, and ran to the back of the formation, and Liu Bao saw that the musketeers had withdrawn, and immediately raised his hands again and shouted: "He! ”
The pikemen in the array immediately began to concentrate according to his orders, filling the gap left by the retreat of the fire slingers that had been reserved between them, which suddenly made their array much denser and the formation much smaller, but the spears that towered like a forest were even more formidable.
Seeing the officers and soldiers in the rush getting closer and closer to their array, almost almost seeing the beards on their faces clearly, Liu Bao shouted loudly: "Sword player squat! Flat the spear! Brethren! Kill! ”
The sword players in the first row squatted down with a hula and squatted down, their bodies were half shorter, and they knelt on one knee, revealing the figure of the first row of spearmen behind them, and the first row of spearmen immediately slammed down, took half a step forward with their right foot, twisted their waists sideways, held the barrels of the spears in both hands, and laid the spears flat, so that the sharp tips of the spears pointed straight in front of them.
The pikemen in the second row immediately raised their hands above their heads, and from the shoulders of the pikemen in the front row, their spears were also flattened, forming a staggered trend with the first row of pikes, increasing the density of the pikes in front of the formation.
And at this time, it happened to be when the official army rushed in front of them, and a row of guns immediately appeared in front of the official army, and the front of the Xingtian army's army was covered with stingers like porcupines.
The leaders of the first row of pikemen in the "Kill ......" shouted together, and the pikemen used their strength to feed as they usually practiced every day, straining their left legs, twisting their waists, and sending their arms forward, and stabbing the spears in their hands forward, even regardless of whether there was an enemy in front of them, they did not hesitate to stab their spears.
I saw that the officers and soldiers who rushed to the front, staring at them with frightened eyes, watched a row of spears stab at them quickly, but they couldn't stop at all under the push of the officers and soldiers behind, and watched their chests crash towards this row of deadly spears.
The spears made a tooth-wrenching sound, and the sharp tips of the spears immediately tore through the armor of the officers and soldiers, and then tore their flesh and bones, and plunged into their bodies.
An officer and soldier who rushed to the front dropped the waist knife in his hand with a loud bang, grabbed the two spears that stabbed him in the chest with both hands, raised his hair and let out a terrible roar, before the sound fell, a mouthful of blood spurted out, and the owner of the two spears took back their spears without any mercy, the screams of this officer and soldier stopped abruptly, two bloody arrows spurted out of his chest, and his eyes rolled down, and he fell down with his soft face.
Such a scene happened in front of the two armies in succession, after a round of spears stabbed, the pikemen relied on thousands of training times a day, almost instinctively twisted the barrel of the gun, and then quickly withdrew their guns, ready for the second assassination.
Immediately in front of them was a row of unsuspecting enemies, and the sound of screams and wails filled their ears.
A recruit looked at the bloody scene in front of him, his wrist couldn't help but tremble slightly, usually training assassination is one thing, now he really takes a gun to stab into people's bodies, but it's another thing, seeing a young officer and soldier of his age staring at him with blood-red eyes, staring at him deadly, and then covering the wound in his lower abdomen that is spurting blood, and kneeling softly in front of him, he was completely shocked by this tragic scene, as if his soul was also out of his body at this moment, he couldn't help but scream madly: "Ah...... Ah......h
And as if infected by him, the pikemen in the first row collectively shouted at the top of their throats, screaming frantically, some shouting for killing, but others were like him, aimlessly screaming with their big mouths open, each with a hideous expression on their faces, as if they were a group of terrible ghosts.
The generals on the side of the official army were also frightened, they charged this time, originally thinking of crashing into the enemy formation, with their years of fighting on the battlefield to practice the skills, the thieves were cut down one by one, fantasizing about the collapse of the thief army that followed, but when this array of spears pierced, their dreams were awakened, one by one in astonishment looked at the rows of fallen robes in front of them, and involuntarily stopped their steps.
"Kill!" Before these stunned officers and soldiers could react, the spearmen roared again, leading the recruits around them to stab their spears forward again.
In front of them, there were suddenly patches of blood again, and there was an inhuman scream, and the officers and soldiers were immediately completely in chaos, although they were also fighting hard, trying to use the weapons in their hands to remove the spears that were stabbing at them in front of them, but no matter how they resisted, they would still be stabbed by other spears, and then they felt the sharp pain from the wound, and saw their blood spurt out, with unwilling and suspicious eyes, they fell to the ground one by one.
When faced with the spears of the Xingtian soldiers, they also put down the weapons they raised, and stabbed at the opponent in the opposite direction, but at this time they found that their spears were not as long as their opponents, and they were only a few feet away from each other, and they were about to reach the opponent's body, but the opponent's spear was pierced into their bodies at this time, making the weapons in their hands no longer able to move in, and they were carrying unwilling howlsand fell to the ground.
After the spearman of the Xingtian Army stabbed the spear into his waist, an officer and soldier cursed and screamed wildly, and at the same time threw a waist knife in his hand forward.
The knife made an arc of light, and lightning fell on the forehead of the spearman who stabbed him, and the sharp blade slashed deeply into his forehead, and a stream of blood flowed down his cheek, the young man opened his mouth, his body was soft, and he fell to the ground with this waist knife on his head, his body twisted violently and twitched, and the officer and soldier who was stabbed by him also pulled out the tip of the gun at his waist, fell to the ground softly, smiled fiercely, and suddenly fell to the ground face down.
The knife players who squatted under the spear held a shield in their left arm and a knife in their right hand and looked forward nervously, looking at each one with fear, unwillingness, and anger...... Officers and soldiers with various expressions fell in front of them, letting out a terrible roar of dying, their bodies twisted, their faces twisted and struggling in pools of blood, and the blood even splattered directly on their faces, making them all frightened.
After being stabbed over a large number of people in a row, finally some officers and soldiers realized that they could not rush into the enemy's dense gun formation by standing up like this, so some smart officers and soldiers cleverly chose to squat down at this time, swung the weapons in their hands towards the top of their heads, held the spear above their heads, and then kicked the ground with their legs, like a hunting dog, rushed towards the Xingtian Army under the gun forest, trying to attack the Xingtian Army's formation from below, and disintegrate the terrible spear formation of the Xingtian Army.
But when they squatted down, they found that there was already a group of enemy sword players squatting under the spear forest, and as soon as they saw their figures, the pupils of these people suddenly contracted, and they immediately met them under the spear forest, and waved the waist knife in their hands at them.
An officer and soldier who had already squatted down looked at several people surrounding him at the same time, and suddenly jumped up instinctively in fright, and wanted to retreat, but as soon as he straightened his waist, a spear slammed into his neck, piercing his neck, and quickly withdrew his spear, this unlucky fellow's eyes widened, threw away the waist knife in his hand, covered the pierced neck, and fell to the ground with a plop, his body trembled violently, twitched, his mouth was wide open, and he made a leaking sound. This sound was neither screaming nor like laughter, it was very weird, his eyes were glaring at a thief in front of him, and he stretched out his hand that had been stained with blood, as if he wanted to ask for help, but also as if he was about to fight to death, and his eyes were full of pain.
The knife player who met him looked into his eyes, gritted his teeth, raised the waist knife in his hand, and slashed down with all his might, and a stream of blood arrows suddenly rose into the air......
