MTL - Number of People-Chapter 2626 The Kui-character scroll swept the violent scroll, head-on
Chapter 2626 Guizi scroll sweeps the violent scroll, head-on
The stone bombs and iron **** pouring down formed a dark cloud in the sky, whizzing towards them, making one's scalp numb.
Some angles are slightly lower, directly sweeping across the entire front shield.
Although the wooden shield is thick, it is only a few tens of steps away. Facing this kind of blow, the shield is also cracked and the wood is scattered. Under the impact of violent force, the wooden **** bloomed from the wooden shield is also full of lethality. It can pierce the leather armor and exposed skin of the soldiers.
What's more troublesome is that the soldiers standing in front couldn't resist the impact at all. After being violently hit by this force, they all sat down or fell to the ground on their backs. short, or was hit by the rebounded wooden shield,
Those with a slightly higher angle directly penetrated into the last few rows or even further behind the phalanx, and the scene was even more tragic.
It is better to have a wooden shield, which can barely resist one or two, even if there are casualties, you can still survive one or two, but if you go further back and directly enter the formation, then the simple leather shield is against the fist-sized stone bullet iron Scum, it is almost nothing. The huge kinetic energy can directly penetrate the shield, and even smash the arm that resists the shield. That is an instant burst, instant death.
The first round of sweeping of the tiger squatting cannon caused irreparable damage to the entire Donghai Jurchen formation. It can be said that no matter whether the long-barreled heavy artillery plus the shooting of firecrackers, they cannot withstand the blow of this round of tiger squatting cannons. Five hundred people were either killed or injured in this round of shooting, and even the wounded were basically stumped, unable to fight, and even needed someone to take care of them.
Tolinkui was a little confused.
In just a split second, he realized that it was like a gust of wind hit the grove, knocking down all the surrounding trees, leaving only himself and Barden, who was three steps away, still standing in a trance.
The splashed brains splashed all over his face, making his brain buzz.
He even saw that Erbo, who had lost half of his head, was hit directly on the forehead by that stone bullet before he even had time to make a sound, and then only half of his head was left, and the **** brains splashed on his face like this And the fishy smell on his body made him feel unspeakably absent-minded.
The chest cavity of the golden cloth beside him was sunken, and a piece of black iron **** was embedded in the chest cavity. Dark red blood gushed out and quickly submerged the piece of iron slag, while the legs of the golden cloth were still on the ground. He twitched helplessly, and his most cherished hunting knife fell askew on the ground, as if it had lost its former sharpness.
Yang Bulu was still crawling and struggling on the ground. The pain made him howl uncontrollably, but he was unable to get up.
A sharp stone was smashed down from the shoulder next to his neck, and even the entire shoulder was smashed down. The naked eye can see that the bones and the flesh have been smashed and tangled together. With the experience gained from hunting, Yang Bulu is basically hopeless, and if he is rescued, he will be half-paralyzed and disabled. How can he survive?
Tuolinkui didn't know what happened at all, he only knew that with a loud bang, a "rain of stones" flew out of thin air, covering the sky with darkness, and everyone, including Tuolinkui himself, didn't have time If you make any reaction, you will be "baptized" by this "stone rain" in a daze.
It was like a hurricane had hit, and there was not much left. Tuolinkui and Balden were among the lucky ones. They were not hit anywhere, but they suffered unprecedented devastation mentally.
It's not that they haven't fought in battle, and it's not that they haven't seen casualties. They have also encountered the situation of being swallowed and killed by wild beasts such as tigers and bears while hunting, but this kind of "violent death" with almost no warning is like punishment from God. . It's too unacceptable to be dead and disabled like this.
And there is no way to defend against this kind of blow. You can't keep looking up at the sky to see if there will be "stone rain" from the sky, and when the real crisis comes, the leather shield in your hand can withstand such fierceness. blow? Maybe it's the same with broken hands and bones, and he died on the ground.
This round of tiger-squatting cannon sweeps completely blinded the entire East China Sea Jurchen infantry phalanx, stopped it, and smashed it to pieces.
Hu Erhan and Sa Jiala almost watched the stone rain fall, and then smashed a huge blank area in the formation, countless people fell to the ground, countless people howled, countless people were at a loss, and even the The formations that were working hard to advance also came to a standstill.
Zhou Jun would not let go of such an opportunity. Before everyone could recover, a series of firecrackers sounded and woke up the Jianzhou Army again.
The Donghai Jurchen soldiers who were covered by the frontal shield were hit again. The continuous shooting of the three-stage attack was aimed at the soldiers who had been torn apart from the frontal defense. Shooting at this distance hardly had any difficulty, and there was no need to even aim. , You only need to shoot the gun mechanically, then step back to clean the barrel and reload it, let the partner around you take a step forward to shoot, and then continue by yourself, repeating the cycle.
The formation was finally disrupted. Although there were still some brave soldiers holding their shields and moving closer to the center in order to maintain the defense system of the entire formation, under such blows, there were really too few people who could truly remain calm and brave. The point is that this kind of blow came too suddenly, making it difficult for everyone to accept, and they didn't know how to deal with it.
So what if they gather together and regroup into a phalanx, can they withstand the continuous bombardment of the opponent? Or the more crowded together, the easier it is to be bombarded by others as a target?
The best way is to bury your head and rush to the edge of the camp, and start hand-to-hand combat. Only in this way can you have a chance, but who can react at this time and make such a decision?
Even the experienced Hu Erhan didn't have time to make a clear response to this for a while, he could only hastily urged his subordinates to find out the situation quickly, and hurriedly asked the Sajia assassination to disperse the entire army to avoid suffering The opponent's intensive shelling minimizes losses as much as possible.
But the problem is that the soldiers scattered in such a panic are more likely to encounter the opponent's firecrackers array that has already been arranged to shoot. It can be said that the chaos caused by the attack of the tiger squatting cannon to the entire East China Sea Jurchen army is the root cause, and then the tight The ensuing firecracker shooting was the biggest culprit in causing casualties.
A thousand gunners were neatly divided into several square formations, and started shooting freely according to the nine-square grid mark set by each. Whenever the sentry officer called out a nine-square number, hundreds of gunners would concentrate their firepower on the number. In this way, the soldiers who just had time to recover and want to reorganize their defenses can be hit as much as possible, and they will fall into chaos again.
In contrast, the second round of tiger squatting cannon fire failed to bring greater results as the first round. The same ferocious shelling brought less than one-third of the previous round of artillery fire, but the other The chaotic effect it brings is unparalleled.
The ensuing chaos lasted for a few cups of tea before Hu Erhan and Sa Jiala came to their senses, but at this time the situation was already chaotic, and Hu Erhan had no choice but to order the cavalry to attack again, starting to harass from the flanks Throwing, in order to disrupt the opponent's shooting effect.
However, the cavalry will also pay a price for attacking. The array shooting of the musketeers can also cause damage to this kind of cavalry attacking in a team. It can be said that this is a game of life for life.
But in order to save the East China Sea Jurchen soldiers who were already on the verge of collapse, Hu Erhan had to go into this kind of battle reluctantly.
It has to be said that Jianzhou Jurchen's riding and archery is indeed very powerful, and the continuous galloping also forces the musketeers to change their formation continuously to avoid too much damage caused by the thrown arrow rain. It affected the shooting effect in front, and even the tiger squatting gunners had to carry the shield with one hand to cover and operate with the other, and their efficiency was greatly reduced.
This kind of interactive lethal continuous combat lasted for less than half an hour before the Sajia assassination completed the integration and rearrangement of his entire subordinates, but the losses and morale blows caused were irreparable.
When the Sajia assassination reorganized the second round of attack, Hu Erhan also knew that the Donghai Jurchen warriors relying on Sajia assassination alone might not be reliable, and the time did not allow him to procrastinate like this. , but judging from the current situation, the strength of the entire camp is at least more than 2,000 people, which also made him feel worried.
How could the Zhou army have stationed more than 2,000 people here for no reason in a small camp that came out ahead, and the tiger crouching artillery formation was obviously not assembled temporarily.
There are also more than a thousand gunners, as well as the spear team and sword and shield soldiers who have not yet shown up. How can this camp have more than two thousand troops? When will the Zhou army have such a surplus of troops? So much troop deployment? Didn't Fei Yingdong notice the change at all?
These problems are entangled together, like a poisonous snake coiled in Hu Erhan's heart, which made Hu Erhan subconsciously have a bad feeling. Could it be that Zhou Jun knew that there would be reinforcements coming from this direction, so he specially set up such a camp Come to block?
But at least when my group set off from Zhenbei Pass and Qinghe Fort, there should be no such camp here, which means that it was built in the past 20 days. Although this camp is very simple, it No matter how simple it is, it will take two or three days to build it. Who leaked the news?
I can’t find the answers to these questions now, and I won’t know until after the battle. What I need to face is how to win this battle as soon as possible, so as to prevent Zhou Jun on the main battlefield from being aware of it and reacting.
