Chapter 897: War Fortress

After three rounds of shelling, about 5,000 officers and men of the Forward Battalion of the First Army Corps began to row their boats and cruise towards the opposite side, while at the same time, the other 5,000 officers and men of the Forward Battalion quickly began to lay pontoon bridges, and the other officers and men of the Forward Battalion were ready to support the attacking troops as a reserve for the assault.

5,000 forward soldiers quickly approached the opposite bank under the cover of artillery fire. As the first ship docked, the ships of the assault force rushed into the tidal flats, and in the process, the catapults of the Wusun army did not play a single role, and it is no wonder that the Wusun army, which had been dizzy by the Wei artillery, was completely confused.

At the same time as the assault troops landed on the shore, the Wei army's ballistae stopped firing, and at this time, if they still fired, they were afraid that they would hurt their own people.

The 5,000 men of the forward battalion jumped from the ship one after another, with the sword and shield men in front, the sword guards in the center, and the crossbowmen in the center, and quickly rushed towards the enemy position.

At this time, the Wusun army finally recovered from its panic, and at the roar of the general, the crossbowmen began to shoot at the Wei army, which was already close at hand, and the arrows flew towards the Wei army in a sparse manner, without causing much damage to the Wei army at all.

The commander of the Wei army's forward battalion brandished the obstacle knife and roared, and the sword and shield in front of him immediately bowed down and advanced unhurriedly with the shield as a cover, while the barrier knife soldier followed closely behind with a half-crouching body, and at the same time, the crossbowman at the back threw a terrifying storm of arrows at the opponent's crossbowman with the repeater in his hand.

With a shrill whining, arrows like a rain of flying locusts flew towards the crossbowmen's position, and the Wusun archers looked at the scene in front of them in amazement, followed by a sound like defeat. The Wusun archers fell in a large piece, and before the Wusun crossbowmen came to their senses. A rain of arrows followed, and another of the Wusun archers fell. Then came the third wave, the fourth wave, as if there was no end!

The defense line in the hearts of the Wusun crossbowmen finally collapsed, and they fled backwards in a hurry.

Seeing this scene, the commander of the forward battalion raised his obstacle knife and shouted: "Impact!! ”

The repeater immediately stopped firing. At the same time, the sword and shield soldiers and the barrier soldiers shouted violently, rushing towards the opponent's position like a torrent of breaking embankments.

Thousands of officers and men of the forward battalion broke through the hastily organized Wusun defensive front in one go, and then divided into several units to carry out surprise attacks on the positions of the Wusun army. The Wusun army tried its best to block it in the roar of the hurry, but the Wusun army, which had already been captured, could not resist the onslaught of the forward battalion of the first army of the Wei army.

The front of the Wusun army retreated one after another. The formation became more and more chaotic, the expression became more and more frightened, the Wei army's forward battalion became more and more courageous, the roar overwhelmed all the noise, and the blood of the enemy and the light of the barrier sword were intertwined.

Suddenly, the 2,000 foot soldiers on the left flank of Wusun were brutally broken by 200 soldiers of the forward battalion from the front, and the entire Wusun front was in turmoil. At this moment, the crossbowmen of the Wei army, who were in a favorable position, began to rain arrows on the Chinese army where they were in a hurry.

The Wusun army finally couldn't resist it, and the entire front completely collapsed. He was also anxious to be swept away by the torrent of the rout, and he had the heart to fight again, but he was unable to return to the sky.

Thousands of soldiers in the forward battalion were completely covered, and the Wusun army, whose will to fight had completely collapsed, threw away their armor and fled desperately.

"Your Majesty. This Wusun people are really rice buckets! Xu Chu said with a disdainful expression, and Dian Wei nodded thoughtfully.

Cao Cao smiled proudly, "The combat power of the First Legion is already enough to dominate the world. Coupled with the power of ballistas, of course they will be difficult to resist! But. In this way, the 20,000 horses who are also in a hurry are afraid that they will not be able to be wiped out! ”

About half an hour later. On the west gate of Hengren City.

Covered in blood and embarrassed, he also knelt in front of Queen Wusun in a hurry, with a look of shame and horror, and Queen Wusun in armor was blue and blue.

"Good! That's great! Your 20,000 horses were defeated head-on by the opponent's 5,000 foot soldiers! In the end, only less than 6,000 remnants of the army came back! Queen Wusun said angrily.

He also crouched on the ground in a hurry, not daring to speak, and the generals around him had the heart to plead, but they didn't know what to say, and all of them were still in horror of the Wei army's ballistas.

"Come on, drag this defeated general down and behead it!"

Several personal soldiers immediately came up and were about to drag Yejian down, but at this moment, the general Iron Wolf suddenly knelt down and pleaded: "Queen, although General Yejian was defeated, but it is understandable, no one expected in advance that the ballista of the Wei army was so sharp and amazing!" ”

Immediately afterwards, all the generals knelt down one after another to plead for intercession, and they were also anxious and hard, kneeling down with a look of shame and saying: "The last general is defeated, and I am willing to be punished by death!" ”

Queen Wusun was silent for a moment, and said in a deep voice: "Today, for the sake of the generals' intercession, the death penalty will be spared!" However, capital sins can be avoided, living sins are unforgivable, and it is urgent to cut them off! The position of general, demoted to partial general, can you be convinced? ”

also thanked him urgently: "The last general thanks the queen for her great grace!" ”

"Get up! Get up! ”

The generals stood up. This turmoil is over.

Queen Wusun couldn't help but have the earth-shattering scene she had seen on the city gate tower just now in her mind, and she couldn't help but feel her scalp numb, if the Wei army attacked Hengren with this, this, Queen Wusun didn't dare to think about it anymore.

Northern Golden Fortress.

Nearly 200,000 Jin troops were nervously making pre-war preparations, and the logistics baggage was continuously transported to the Jin fortress.

Dingbei City.

After two years of construction, Dingbei City was finally completed, and in order to complete this huge siege, 100,000 prisoners and 100,000 Fusang people paid hard work.

The city of Dingbei stands on the southern shore of the Beihai Sea (Lake Baikal) in the west, and the whole is square in shape, with two walls, the latter of which is higher than the previous one.

Not because the walls were taller, but because the inner walls were built on rammed earth three meters high, and the reason why the inner walls were built higher was to be able to still have a condescending advantage over the enemy after losing the first wall.

The city wall is four zhang high, more than six meters wide, and can allow five war horses to gallop side by side: the city wall is all made of large bluestone and blue bricks mined from the vicinity, and it is very strong: the city wall protrudes outward every fifty meters with a rectangle four meters long and six meters wide, which can cooperate with the main city wall to form a crossfire on three sides against the attacking enemy, the outer city wall is 2.5 kilometers wide, four city gates, the inner city wall is 1.5 kilometers, four city gates, and all eight city gates have magnificent city gate towers, At the same time, there is also a confusion urn city in the city gate.

In addition to the above, there are more than 100 fortresses between the inner and outer walls and within the inner walls, which are independent of each other, in fact, they can be connected to each other through underground passages, so as to take care of each other in wartime, and can give the enemy the greatest damage.

In short, Dingbei City is not so much a city as a war fortress, and its defense power can definitely be called a golden soup city, and it is definitely a nightmare for all enemies. (To be continued.) )
