Afternoon.

Wang Jianshan took 5,000 men and horses, as well as special armor 'tortoise shells' up the mountain, and followed him to Zhuge Yue, Livestock, Shangguan Haonan and others.

The remaining 35,000 men and horses set up camp at the foot of the mountain, and the whole camp moved to the mountain to prevent a sneak attack.

Luo Wu knew that the attack in the morning was just a test, the opponent's combat strength was not strong, the day had not passed, there must still be a hard battle to fight, and he did not relax, after recovering the crossbow arrows, the materials on the top of the mountain were still abundant, enough to support him to fight for a few more days and nights.

As long as there are no accidents, the other party will soon have an accident.

When he saw the upside-down wooden boat-shaped object appear on the mountain, he knew that His Majesty's side must have put a lot of pressure on them, and this kind of artifact should be the hole card they used to deal with grenades, and it was only revealed on the first day, indicating that they did not want to wait for a moment, and wanted to take the top of the mountain in one fell swoop.

He whispered to the brothers on the top of the mountain: "Brothers, the next thing is a hard battle, whether to exterminate these mountain bandits, return to Chang'an to become an official and become a knight, or die in a foreign land, it depends on everyone." ”

Kui Qi replied impressively: "Commander Luo, please rest assured, my Kui Qi will definitely let them come over vertically and go out horizontally." ”

"That's it, just a mountain bandit, it's not an enemy like me at all, I can kill as many as I come."

"Okay," Luo Wu saw that the army's heart was greatly rising, and shouted: "When I return to Chang'an, I, Luo Wu, personally invite you to my general's mansion to have a good drink." ”

"Thank you, General."

Mountain bandit camp.

Wang Jianshan led Zhuge Yue, livestock, and Shangguan Haonan to observe the situation on the mountain.

After attacking and observing in the morning, Wang Jianshan initially deduced that the other side was only five or six hundred people, and that the three thousand people who had folded here in the morning were really too ignorant.

This time, he transferred 2,000 archers to shoot a wave before fighting, but he couldn't let his people die in vain.

"Zhuge Military Division, then let's follow the strategy discussed at noon and capture the mountain?" Wang Jianshan asked Zhuge Yue's opinion, and Zhuge Yue nodded in agreement.

Seeing that the military advisor agreed, Wang Jianshan turned his head to look at the cattle and Shangguan Haonan.

"Cattle, you lead three thousand troops to charge the battle with tortoise shells, Shangguan Haonan, you are from Shangguan's family, and you train archers in Shangguan's house, these two thousand archers will be arranged by you to support the cattle at any time, and the two armies will cooperate with each other to take the high ground."

"I will not let the big boss down." The two of them bowed their hands together and received orders from Wang Jianshan.

In front of the battle, there were four ships of tortoiseshells, each of which could stand two hundred people, a total of eight hundred, and the remaining two thousand two hundred men followed closely behind the tortoiseshells, using the tortoiseshells as shields to charge forward.

Each of these tortoiseshells is thickened and coated with tung oil to counteract the power of the grenades.

The palms of the cattle sweated slightly, he had seen the power of those grenades, it was impossible to say that he was not afraid, but the revenge of the brothers in the cave of Kanshan had not been avenged, and the big boss valued him so much, if even he didn't have the courage to rush into battle, no one would dare to fight the whole army.

Thinking of this, the animal raised his breath and shouted to his subordinates: "Brothers, my brothers in the Kanshan tribe died at their hands, and those brothers are like you, all of them are brave in blood, if it weren't for the other party's possession of the power of grenades, we would have killed them cleanly." ”

"Now that we have tortoiseshells, we can restrain each other's grenades, what are we afraid of? Everyone with me, raise the tortoise shell, charge at each other, kill the dog emperor, and go to Chang'an to be the prince! ”

"Kill the dog emperor and be the prince of Chang'an!"

Many mountain bandits also responded, lifting the tortoise shell, and slowly moved towards the top of the mountain.

Shangguan Haonan arranged for 200 people to go up to the tree to guard the rear, and the remaining 1,800 people scattered on both sides waited for the opportunity to move.

Luo Wu faintly heard their shouts.

"Tortoiseshell? A group of people are hiding inside, but it really looks like that. Luo Wu turned his head and shouted to his garrison: "Second battalion commander, pull out Lao Tzu's Italian cannon." ”

He always heard Qin Huaidao call artillery like this, and he also planned to learn from His Majesty and get over it.

Commander of the Second Battalion of the Garrison: "What did you say, Commander?" ”

"It's artillery, pull the artillery out." Luo Wu had to explain again.

Although Qin Huaidao did not say that he wanted to carry the artillery on the official ship, he still quietly left a cannon for the garrison to disassemble and transport in batches, and there were ten shells to match the artillery.

Seeing this artillery that had made great contributions in Hangzhou, Luo Wu thought that he was fortunate to bring one over, otherwise according to the thickness of the opponent's tortoise shell, he would definitely suffer a loss in a fight.

After the second battalion commander pulled out the artillery, he asked Luo Wu: "Do you want to reload now?" ”

Luo Wudao: "Don't worry, try the level of these tortoise shells first." ”

He asked the sniper regiment to shoot a wave of arrows with crossbow arrows first, and thirty rounds of crossbow arrows shot out from the sky with a rain of arrows, which made the cattle tremble.

"Go."

He shouted, and everyone stopped and put the tortoise shell down, and the people behind the tortoise shell also crouched down, and those with shields held their shields high to prevent the arrows from missing over the tortoise shells and shooting them.

The rain of arrows fell, except for a few that shot behind the tortoise shell, the rest were blocked by the tortoise shell, and the crossbow arrows failed to penetrate the tortoise shell, and did not bring any casualties to the mountain bandit group brought by the cattle.

When the animal saw that nothing was wrong, he rejoiced: "It really works." ”

But he knew that it was too early to rejoice, what this thing needed to guard against was not these crossbow arrows, but against the amazingly powerful grenades, as long as the other party had not thrown the grenade, it would not be considered tortoiseshell defense.

On the other side, Shangguan Haonan saw crossbow arrows shooting from the top of the mountain, and he also signaled the archers to start moving, these archers' weapons were not as long as the other side's, so they could only take advantage of the gap between the opponent's shooting at the tortoise shell and advance three hundred steps to gain space for shooting.

The two teams of archers formed two wings on one left and one right of the tortoiseshell, and after advancing continuously, they saw that the distance was enough for Shangguan Haonan to give the order to shoot.

Pulling the string, the arrow feather left the string and made a burst of sound breaking the air, Luo Wu shouted when he saw this: "The whole army avoids!" ”

Both the garrison and the sniper regiment hid in the potholes in the trenches at the first time, and these arrows fired several rounds in succession, without causing them any casualties.

"Wrong." Shangguan Haonan was annoyed, as soon as the other party squatted on the ground, he couldn't see the situation inside, and he was about to touch it to see the situation, and he suddenly sent out that the other party had a head.

This person is the leader of the other party, one of the top ten generals of the Han Dynasty and the head of the garrison, Luo Wu.

"Crossbow bolts counterattack, shoot both wings!"

As the order was issued, everyone took advantage of the stagnation of the archers, raised their hands and shot all the crossbow arrows, a full fifteen thousand arrows scattered to the two wings, looking at the number of crossbow arrows far exceeding the scale of the square, Shangguan Haonan only felt a fear in his heart.

It's over, it's all over.
