Chapter 651: Resistance Battle
"Bang!"
The bowstring exploded like thunder.
A large number of feather arrows roared away, covering the sky and the sun, and went straight to the direction of Yangguan.
"Dongdong, Dongdong!"
A crisp crash sounded, and the feathered arrows landed on the shield of the special warfare division, and sparks flew in all directions.
The shields used by special warfare divisions are all wooden planks covered with a layer of steel plates, not iron sheets, and the steel plates are tough, and the iron arrows cannot be pierced at all, and they fly away.
Under the huge shield, the soldiers shrunk into a ball and hid on the ground, listening to the sound of impact, not seeing the hole, one by one, their hearts were settled, and the rushing adrenaline made people roar uncontrollably, and their morale soared - the enemy's bow and arrow could not penetrate the shield, so what were they afraid of?
"Dongdong, Dongdong!"
Another wave of arrows rained down from the sky, hail smashed on the shield, and then bounced out, the shield was unscathed, Pei Xingjian looked around in shock, everyone's shields were fine, how could this be?
In my memory, even if the shield can block the feather arrows, it will be shot in, and the worse shields will be pierced, what is the shield used by everyone made of?
"It's all hidden, don't show your head."
The words of the battalion commander rang in the ears, reminding everyone.
Pei Xingjian hurriedly put aside his thoughts, concentrated, hid his body and did not move, and after five rounds of arrow rain, the Turkic attack was suspended, this kind of long-distance hard bow is the most physically demanding, and six or seven rounds are already the limit.
"Brothers, the Turks are exhausted, it's our turn." The battalion commander yelled excitedly.
Everyone carefully removed their shields, looked over, and saw that the Turks were really shaking their swollen arms, but they did not retreat, and one by one they picked up their big bows and aimed them ahead.
Pei Xingjian also lost his shield and opened his bow and arrows, but he didn't make a move right away, and turned his head to look at the battalion commander.
The battalion commander did not give the order to attack, but turned his head to look at the flag soldiers not far away, and saw that the flag soldiers waved the flag, asking the team to be hidden and standby, and not to attack, the battalion commander did not know why, but he was convinced of the order, and absolutely believed in every order of Qin Huaidao, and shouted: "Brothers, don't let go of arrows, take it, take it all, and recuperate." ”
Everyone let go of the bow, their hearts were full of curiosity, why didn't they fight back with such a good opportunity?
But the military order was like a mountain, and no one dared to disobey it.
Pei Xingjian couldn't guess why he didn't attack, and stared at the front suspiciously, while figuring out Qin Huaidao's intentions, he found that he couldn't guess at all, and this gap made Pei Xingjian very depressed.
On the top of the mountain.
Luo Ying couldn't guess either, and asked curiously, "Uncle, why don't you fight back?" The enemy army is exhausted, the brothers can kill more than half of them by rushing up, and if they dare to escape, the cavalry can chase them down the hill and kill them, leaving no one behind. ”
Qin Huaidao cultivated Luo Ying a little, and explained: "Show weakness in order to be able to hold back the enemy, don't forget that our strategic intention is to hold them back, consume their arrows and energy, and be patient, and wait until they can't bear it and want to run before they do it, eat it in one bite, exposing their strength too early will only scare the other party, you remember, all tactical arrangements must serve the ultimate goal of the battle." ”
Luo Ying chewed the deep meaning carefully and was silent.
Luo Wu also engraved every word in his heart, pondered it with his heart, and gradually realized it.
The wind was fierce, the flags were waving and crackling.
The breath of slaughter permeated the heavens and the earth, depressing and dull.
After waiting for a while, the Turks regained a lot of strength, and instead of retreating, they shot arrows again to attack the top of the mountain, and two cavalry rushed over from both sides, standing behind the archers to press the formation, staring at the direction of the top of the mountain, as if they were rushing down to the top of the mountain.
This scene made everyone in Yang Guan a little nervous, and they continued to observe covertly, allowing the opponent's bow and arrow to attack ineffectively.
Not long after, another army of 5,000 men came up and continued the attack in place of the previous archers.
Qin Huaidao gradually understood the Turkic combat intentions, this is like covering with a bow and arrow, shooting the living force on his side, if it is a conventional shield of the Tang Army, this move can be described as a lore, at least kill most of it, and the rest is not at all worried, and it is impossible to defend Yangguan.
Fortunately, a large shield is specially made, so you can sit firmly on the Diaoyutai!
"Bang bang bang!"
Before the wave subsided, another wave invaded, and the sky was full of feathered arrows, like a raging storm
The hillside was full of the sound of tinkling Dongdong's metal impact, and the ground was also full of feather arrows, dense, but in the eyes of the soldiers of the special operations division, this was the material sent to the door, just to make up for the lack of feather arrows, and they all laughed excitedly, without any tension in the life and death battle.
It's a very special experience, never before, especially for new recruits, and it feels like war is nothing more than that.
After a while, the Turks stopped attacking, and the archers slowly retreated.
An army of 10,000 people advanced up, holding swords and shields, divided into two rows, each batch of five phalanxes, and marched straight to Yangguan with neat steps.
"The enemy is going to attack?!"
Qin Huaidao snorted coldly when he saw this scene.
Luo Ying nodded, pulled out his sword, and said murderously: "Uncle, tens of thousands of infantry, this is a battle to decide, I will lead people to rush and kill." ”
"What's the panic? For the generals, but calm! ”
Qin Huaidao glared at the other party dissatisfied, and then ordered: "The Turks were covered with feather arrows just now, and at least 100,000 arrows were shot, thinking that the strength of our army had been severely damaged and they were unable to fight again, how could we not cooperate?" The order was given to all the troops, who were hidden and not allowed to take their heads, pretending to be all shot and killed, and put them on the mountain to fight. ”
"Obey!" The flag bearer agreed, and quickly passed the order through the flag.
The troops received the order to quickly sanitize the idea of going out, and continued to hide, while collecting the feather arrows that were everywhere next to them for backup.
The Turkic army advanced slowly, killing intent rolling.
On both sides of the infantry, two cavalry followed behind, ready to respond.
The three armies of nearly 20,000 people put on a decisive battle formation.
Seeing that he was about to walk to the foot of Yangguan Mountain, the mountain was still quiet, and there was no one in sight, and the leading general was a sturdy man, with a beard on his face, and his triangular eyes flashed with cold light, staring at the mountain, and a trace of doubt flashed in his eyes.
A general next to him couldn't help but say, "General, are they all killed?" ”
"It must be, at least 100,000 arrows were shot just now, Yangguan is so big, there is nowhere to hide, not dead and wounded, and there is no strength to fight again, and I am willing to lead the people of my headquarters to take the lead and take Yangguan for the general." Another fighter next to him took the initiative to ask for battle, his eyes were fanatical.
"Why take the lead?" The warrior who spoke before was not convinced.
The leader of the army waved his hand to signal not to make noise, staring at the triangular eyes on the mountain and narrowing into a slit, the fierce light was shining, like a foraging wolf, whether he shot them all or escaped from the back mountain, it was a good thing.
As for survival?
Under such a dense rain of arrows, it does not exist!
His thoughts flashed, and the general ordered in a cold voice: "The soldiers are divided into two roads, you two lead one road, attack left and right at the same time, and the one who goes to the top of the mountain first will go!" ”
"Order!" The two excitedly agreed.
The 10,000 Turkic army divided into two lines and attacked almost simultaneously, the sound of running footsteps shook the sky, and the swords glittered and reflected in the sun, and the chill was terrifying.
Soon, the army rushed to the foot of the mountain, and rushed to the top of the mountain in a swarm, without mutual defense, without formation, without organization and discipline, and the people on horseback were not good at this kind of siege, all with a fierce breath.
How could the people of the special operations division be afraid?
At the sound of the order, everyone suddenly appeared and shot arrows at the climbing Turkic soldiers.
"Ahhh
One after another screams rang out, countless people fell to the ground, and soon became stepping stones for their companions, there were too many Turkic soldiers, densely packed, rushing forward in a swarm, unable to retreat at all.
"Hugh Hugh!"
Feathered arrows flew down from above, flying out black lights, knocking down and engulfing life.
The battle was heated at the beginning.
The special operations division guards the first line of defense, more than 1,000 people shoot arrows frantically, they don't aim at all, there are too many, and they are crowded together, no matter how you shoot, you can hit one, I can't wait to give birth to a few more arms, and the good guys themselves are faster.
Soon, a large number of Turks rushed up the hill about ten meters, and they were only twenty meters away from the first line of defense.
No one flinched in the group of special operations divisions, their feet were nailed to the ground like nails, they did not move, and they continued to shoot hard, and their hearts were ready for hand-to-hand combat.
Pei Xingjian's arm was sore, and he felt that he could pull the bow three times at most, thinking about whether to spare some strength for melee combat, and suddenly heard dense footsteps behind him, and before he could look back, he saw countless crossbows flying up behind him, rushing towards the front.
"Kill!" A roar sounded behind him, shaking the heavens and the earth.
