Chapter 983: Knife Killer
Chapter 983: Knife Killer
Gorod is located in the northwestern part of the Istrian Highlands, the ground is hard, the outermost part of the place is like a knife to form a huge cliff, although there are many gentle slopes on both sides that can be climbed, but they are too narrow, one of the roads is very wide, but the Slavs are also the most heavily defended, Jerusha ordered a feint, and was smashed by a rolling stone. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info Yelusha has never commanded such a strange battle, if only Zheng Biao was here, with his many years of experience in mountain warfare, maybe there will be a way. The front of Gorod is like a cliff, and it is not so easy to climb it. Is it impossible to take a detour? Bypassing Gorod, not to mention traveling a hundred miles, and facing an unknown crisis, Jerusha really couldn't make such a decision.
Yu Xiaochen, Ren Phenol and others are all concentrated in the Yelu Sha tent, facing the battle situation of Gorod, there is no progress at all, you must know that His Royal Highness and others are waiting in Cahors, tens of thousands of troops are immobilized by Gorodka, and no one will have a bright face. Yerusha is also at a loss, gathering everyone, also trying to gather ideas, there is a lot of strength in numbers, "Everyone has seen the Gorod Heights, let's talk about their opinions, whether there are any good suggestions." Ben will remind you in advance, don't mention the idea of a detour, of course, if you are not afraid of being embarrassed, you can ask for reinforcements, but in the face of the Gorod landscape, it is estimated that no matter how many soldiers and horses are useless. ”
In fact, there is no need for Jerusha to remind him, several commanders have no idea of asking for reinforcements, and now there are more than 30,000 soldiers and horses in five camps concentrated in Gorod Gao, if there are so many people, it will be too embarrassing to say that it is not enough. The key is to find an effective means of attack, Ren Phenol is in charge of the first feint, so he has the most right to speak, he unfolded the temporary drawing of the battle map, and said with a serious expression, "General, judging from the attack on the first day, although there are as many as seven routes to attack Gorod, only the west side can really be used, and the others are too narrow, and the Slavs only need to send a small number of troops to lock our forward route." On the west side, there are six or seven zhang long, and the narrowest part is more than four zhang. In terms of the available troops, this is where we are most likely to take advantage of it. Judging from the previous situation, the biggest threat to us is the Rolling Stones, and if we can solve this problem, it will not be too difficult to break through the Gorod line. ”
What Ren said is very reasonable, but there is one problem that has not yet been solved, and that is how to deal with the rolling stones of the Slavs. The Slavs occupy a geographical advantage, they are condescending, and this place is a rocky landform, and the rolling stones are inexhaustible. Huang Qiyang dragged his chin and was silent, he had seen the first day of the offensive and defensive battle with his own eyes, the Slavs' rolling stones were too lethal, and many soldiers were smashed into flesh by the rolling stones before they could find the enemy. But what Ren Phenol said also makes sense, if you want to attack Gorod, there is only this way to go, and gradually Huang Qiyang has an idea in his heart, "General, the last general has a not very mature idea, the most lethal thing for the Slavs is the rolling stone, why don't we strengthen the shield, thicken the shield, and cast the triangle shape of the city outside, so that the stone rolls down, and after touching the triangular shield, it will be divided into both sides." We can continue to attack with a long snake formation, with the first few people wearing triangular shields, and the people behind also using shields to protect the left and right. The last general has observed the situation of the steep slope, the sides are not even, most of the stones are rolled down from the middle, we can send two long snake formations, from the left and right sides of the slowly rush up, as long as someone attacks the high slope, creating chaos, can provide convenience for the follow-up of a large number of soldiers and horses to attack. ”
Yerusha thought about it carefully and felt that what Huang Qiyang said was very reasonable, so he ordered, "Gather all the blacksmiths in the generals, and the Slavic blacksmiths in Cahors City will also be sent to the front line, seize the time to transform the shield, and it must be thickened." Tomorrow the day the whole army will be repaired, and the morning after tomorrow will attack the Gorod heights again, and strive to break through Gorod in an instant. ”
With Yerusha's order, the blacksmiths in the barracks were gathered, and from the night onwards, the camp sounded with the sound of clanging, and the blacksmiths were working in full swing, with Huang Qiyang and Ren Phenol personally supervising. Considering the load-bearing and possible impact force, Ren Phenol asked the blacksmith door to add six handles to the inside of the shield, so that one shield can be resisted by three or four people together, minimizing the damage caused by the impact force. The next day they remained still, which also caused a strange scene in Gorod, and the Slavs were ready for a fierce battle, but the main roads were empty and very quiet, and the Easterners did not seem to have any intention of attacking. The concentration of Tilov, Liosa Noel and Roche in makeshift castles, and the absence of the Orientals did not seem to be a good thing. Tirov deliberately let the Orientals attack, so that the Rolling Stones could play the greatest role, but on the first day, the Orientals suffered a loss, leaving hundreds of corpses and no longer attacking, which shows that they are thinking about a countermeasure.
Rosh is usually silent, but the important moment is still very insightful, he once took advantage of the noon, to observe the camp of the Orientals, the camp is full of smoke, a busy scene, but there is no intention of retreating, "Everyone, I'm afraid the next battle will not be so easy." When the Easterners attack again, they must be prepared. If the Rolling Stone is out of effect, it is estimated that the arrows will not be effective, so I recommend clearing the road to prepare us for the next blockade. ”
Liao Sha Noel nodded in agreement, some things are better to prepare in advance, although temporary cramming is useful, but it is too easy to have accidents. After a day of preparation, all the blacksmiths were gathered, and finally dozens of thick triangular shield paddles were created. Early the next morning, the rumbling drums sounded again, and the five hundred **** soldiers were divided into two columns, forming two long snake formations to attack along the wide ramp. At first, the Slavs also launched bows to block them, but all of these arrows were blocked by shields.
Standing on a high place, Tilov could faintly see the situation below, and when he saw the two long snakes wrapped in black shields, he couldn't help but frown. The way the Orientals attacked was really weird, and at this time, Liao Sha Nuoer also made people stop shooting bows and arrows, drew his broadsword, and only landed on a boulder with one leg, "Drop the rolling stones, smash these hateful Orientals to death." ”
There was a strong sense of confidence in Liosa Noor's words, and the Slavic soldiers were also full of confidence and did not have the slightest worry. Because on the first day, the Oriental people also rushed up, but they were greeted by a rolling stone, and they fled after killing hundreds of people. There was a rumbling sound, rolling stones down the gentle slope, hitting some gravel, and making a clattering sound, which made the Slavs depressed. The Orientals held their shields on both sides, and many stones rolled through the middle, without even touching human hair. Some stones hit it, but there was no expected scream, the stone hit the triangular shield, bang, several soldiers behind the shield shook, but quickly stabilized, the stone was directly skimmed to the side, and then the shield behind it hit out, and the stone rolled directly to the middle, unable to pose a threat to the soldiers behind him.
The Slavs launched the first round of rolling stone attacks, but with little success, except for one unlucky soldier who was knocked under his feet and bruised in the arm. Liosa Noel and the Slavic soldiers standing on it were dumbfounded, they still didn't give up, and continued to throw rolling stones, but the result was still about the same, because the sides of the gentle slope were relatively high, most of the stones rolled and rolled in the middle, and they could not pose a threat to the soldiers on both sides at all, and some of the ones that collided were also blocked by strange shields.
Below the Gorod Heights, since the first round of attacking troops rushed up, Yerusha was nervously sweating in his palms, and he had been holding a clairvoyant mirror to observe the attack, and when he saw that the Slavs' rolling stones had lost their threat, he couldn't help laughing, and Huang Qiyang and the others were even more happy to high-five. The two long snake formations continued to approach forward, and after the arms of the soldiers in front were numb, there were immediately people from behind coming up, and everyone took turns to resist the triangular shields in front, but the formation was not chaotic. The triangular shield was deliberately made, the weight was not low, and when it was moved, it made a heavy muffled sound when it was released to the ground, and the movement was very slow, but it was effective, and the Slavs could only stare dryly for a while, and there was nothing they could do.
Tirov gasped, fortunately he had prepared before, if he still defended according to the situation of the first day, I am afraid that he will have to swallow the consequences today. The rolling stones have not stopped, and hundreds of soldiers have been engrossed in supporting their shields, and in half an hour, they don't know how many stones have rolled past them. A few dozen feet further, it was possible to attack, and some of the soldiers looked up and could already see the faces of the Slavs. Qi Tian knocked the iron rod on the shield in his hand and shouted, "Brothers, work hard, you are about to go up, and when you get to the top, let the Slavic beard taste our strength!" ”
"Huh.... The soldiers echoed each other, full of indignation. This is a relatively steep stone step, the soldiers did not hesitate at all, directly crossed the stone steps, and immediately became wide in front of them, maybe not a quarter of an hour to kill, at the same time, the main force of the soldiers and horses below also began to prepare, as long as there was chaos above, immediately pounced up, otherwise relying on those hundreds of soldiers, it would definitely not last long.
Tirov's eyes were cold, and when he saw the Ding **** soldier crossing the stone steps, he slowly raised his hand, and his face showed a bit of viciousness, "Order.... Brake cutter ....."
"Your Excellency the Legion Commander has an order..... Brake ..... Let go of the gatekeepers...", and a moment later there was a sound, and an iron chain shook violently, and at the end pulled a huge gate, which was a bit like an anchor, and the huge blade was hung with many sharp iron bars. The knife fell from the upper right, dragged by the chain, and made a ping-pong sound, crisp and piercing. At this time, the **** soldier also noticed the abnormality, and instinctively looked towards the right-hand position. As soon as Qi Tian raised his head, he saw a soldier behind him being cut off by the gate knife, and the sharp iron bar on the knife was scraped on the nearby soldiers, either dead or injured, and the heavy shield could not block the impact of the gate knife at all, and it was banging for a while, and the long snake array was in chaos. Qi Tiangang wanted to say something, **** hurt, the whole person was scraped by a heavy iron chain, and the person also flew into the air, directly on the hard cliff. Poof, Qi Tian didn't have time to snort in pain, and fell directly.
A huge sluice knife, flicked left and right, all the creatures in a radius of several zhang were cut, hundreds of soldiers became a blur of flesh and blood, some were cut off, some were taken to the bottom of the cliff, some were directly killed, and some alive wanted to retreat, but without the cover of the complete shield array, they were also killed by rolling stones.
The Slavs let out an earth-shattering cry, but Jerusha, who was standing under the high ground, had a gloomy face, not expecting the Slavs to have such a terrible aftermath. A sluice knife sweeps everything, and if so, no number of people will go to kill the Slavs. Jerusha was very angry, it was already the third day, although the loss was less than fifteen hundred, but the key problem was that he had not touched the Slavs, and after so many years of fighting, he had never been so cowardly. Yu Xiaochen and the others also looked defeated, how could they not be disheartened when the carefully prepared triangular shield array ended like this. Witnessing the tragedy, Huang Qiyang's lips turned a little blue, and in the face of the huge sword, the soldiers were like a swarm of ants, and they had no ability to resist.
"Big... Great General .... What can I do? "Several commanders are all a little numb in their scalps, they don't say that they are afraid of death, but they don't know how to face this gate knife, such a fast killing weapon, no matter how popular the kung fu is, it is also a different place when they collide.
Yerusha's brows were clenched, his fists were clenched tightly, and after a long time, he looked at several commanders and said coldly, "Yu Xiaochen listens to the order, Ben will give you two thousand soldiers and horses, and then form a shield array, and you must give Ben the general to capture the Gorod Heights." ”
"What?" Several commanders were all stunned, the general was stimulated, the sluice knife was a nightmare for the soldiers, hundreds of people were poisoned in the blink of an eye, and they had to send people up, isn't this death? Yu Xiaochen took a deep look and arched his hand seriously, "The last general will lead the troops up." ”
Yu Xiaochen knows Yelu Sha very well, and General Yelu is not that impulsive person. And in fact, Yerusha also has his own considerations, the sluice knife is indeed terrifying, but it can also be seen that this kind of sluice knife is very bulky, it requires a long time to prepare, and it is impossible to use it repeatedly in a short time, that is, now is the best time to attack.
