Chapter 1422: Han Banner World (One Hundred and Twelve) Iron Wall (Five)
Qu Wan personally sat on the front line. It had been several days since he attacked Wuguan. Wang Shubo had lost his troops and generals. He had tried all the methods he could think of, such as trench advancement and night attack on Shaoxi Mountain. All the methods that could be used were used, but none of them could. To achieve the desired effect, until now, Shaoxi Mountain is still in the hands of the Han army, and the Yellow Dragon Flag is still flying proudly. What disheartened the Chu army is that they did not even touch the edge of the artillery position on Shaoxi Mountain. From the foot of the mountain to halfway up the mountain, the bloody corpses of Chu soldiers were placed everywhere. Before Wuguan, they still had not broken through the second line of defense. Artillery attacks from inside the city and on the mountains almost made it difficult for the Chu army to move.
Qu Wan decided to trade his life for his life. Even if he had to pay several times the enemy's casualties, he would still win Wuguan.
Rows of cavalry slowly arrived at the forefront of the position. Amidst the passionate drums, these cavalry shouted loudly, shook their horses, and sprinted forward at the fastest speed they could achieve. No matter how fast the infantry ran, they could not catch up with the horses. In this area, there was almost no way to survive being attacked by artillery. But the cavalry was different. They might be able to use the gaps in the artillery bombardment to rush to the second line of defense.
These cavalrymen no longer have the usual spears in their hands, and each of them only carries a knife. The difference is that each of them carries an explosive pack on their horseback.
People leaned on the saddle and sprinted forward desperately. Each wave of cavalry was only forty or fifty, and they were widely spread out. The sound of rapid horse hooves was like knocking on everyone's heart. All the Chu army generals were shocked. With wide eyes, he watched several waves of cavalry opening up a gap of dozens of steps, and rushed forward without hesitation.
This was the last resort they could think of.
Wu Ya was a little confused at first, but immediately understood the other party's intention.
"God's Crossbow, all God's Crossbows, aim at those cavalry, shoot them down for me."
On the top of the mountain, Mei Hua's always smiling face turned serious for the first time, "Fuck. I can use this move too, let the artillery blast me, cover the fire."
Crossbows and artillery covered the area in an instant. People screamed, and cavalrymen and horses fell to the ground. Some cavalrymen who were hit by artillery exploded with earth-shaking explosions the moment they fell to the ground. . Even the men and horses were blown up to the point where no bones were left.
Above Wuguan, Yang Dasha frowned deeply, "Are you going to fight desperately? Okay, I will let you know what fighting means. Come here, order the first division to push behind Wu Ya. Always ready for hand-to-hand combat.”
"yes."
Yang Dasha stretched out his hands, did a few burpees on the city wall, jumped up, and pulled out the big knife that had been stuck on the side. He turned around and walked under the tower, "I haven't moved my hands and feet for a long time, let's go practice some exercises today.
"
As soon as Yang Dasha moved, his soldiers immediately followed him. Like Yang Dasha, they all have machetes.
On the defense line before Wuguan, a bloody war horse emerged from the smoke, with its body on the horse. There were several crossbow arrows stuck in the knight's body, and the horse's pace became slower and slower. His body was shaking and he might fall to the ground at any time. However, when the knight on the horse saw the Han army's position in front of him, his dull eyes suddenly lit up. With a roar, he stood up from the horse. , leaping forward with all his strength. Several spears were thrown out fiercely, making a chirping sound, and penetrated the knight's body. The knight fell heavily from the air, lay on the ground, twisted his body, and tried his best to bring the torch in his right hand closer to his left hand. Grab the explosive bag.
The fuse immediately burst into flames. On top of the defense line, a Han company commander's expression changed drastically, "Get down, get down."
The soldiers fell to the ground in unison, and almost at the same moment, there was a loud bang, and the explosive pack exploded. The officer who was screaming desperately was like a rag doll, pushed back by the violent air waves, and there was a snap. It fell to the ground, twisted a few times, and made no sound again.
Above the defense line, the surviving soldiers jumped up from the ground. A platoon leader twisted and glanced at the company commander who fell to the ground without a sound behind him, and shouted, "Charge up, charge up, don't let them explode." Our defense."
He felt that he shouted loudly, but he was horrified to find that he heard nothing. Looking at the soldiers around him, they all looked at him blankly.
With a strange cry, the platoon leader clutched his spear tightly, jumped out from the position, and rushed towards the smoke. Only then did the nearby soldiers react, shouting and rushing forward following their commander closely. Like their platoon leader, they could not hear anything at all.
In the smoke, scattered cavalry rushed out from time to time to ignite explosive packs, and on the Han army's defense line, officers and soldiers rushed out in groups.
The entire defense line was finally thrown into chaos.
"It's done!" Wang Shubo, who had been squatting on the ground, jumped up and shouted with great joy: "The whole army attacks, the whole army attacks."
On the battlefield, the Han soldiers who rushed out were mixed with the Chu army. Above the city, all the artillery on Shaoxi Mountain stopped attacking.
Wu Ya, who was behind the defense line, stared at the endless stream of Chu soldiers rushing towards him. He whipped out his sword from his waist and said, "Fourth Division, attack and drive them back."
Amidst the shouts, thousands of officers and soldiers of the Fourth Division stood up straight and rushed to the front row by row.
As soon as Wu Ya went to the battlefield, the officers and soldiers of the First Division rushed out of Wuguan under the personal leadership of commander Yang Dasha.
"Come on, gentlemen!" Yang Dasha waved his sword excitedly, strode forward and rushed forward. Although he is now the commander of an army, Yang Dasha still misses the time when he was the company commander. The first company has never been full. At most, there are only more than a hundred men, but it has never been full. It is a sharp knife of the Eastern Expeditionary Army. In hand-to-hand combat, who has Yang Dasha been afraid of? Who was his first company and his first army afraid of?
Since the start of the Wuguan War, the first face-to-face hand-to-hand battle between the two armies finally kicked off.
Qu Wan also became nervous at this moment. He knew very well that this was a battle that would determine the outcome. If he loses this battle again, he will no longer be able to launch an attack on Wuguan. With this experience, the Han army will never let the same method succeed again. All it takes is a slight arrangement on the battlefield to make it difficult for the cavalry to move forward.
"General." A cavalryman flew up. "On the left side of Danfeng County, we found the Xiongnu Cavalry Division of the Han Army, advancing towards our flanks."
Qu Wan's expression changed slightly, and before he could react, another horseman arrived like flying, "General, the Donghu Cavalry Division of the Han Army has been discovered on the right side of Danfeng County."
Qu Wan took a deep breath and looked back at Wang Shubo: "Shubo, this battle is up to you. I can't give you any more reinforcements. Bai Xizhong, Huang Zhong and the others must go and warn those two Cavalry Division. If they are allowed to intervene, we will have no place to stand."
"Don't worry, General." Wang Shubo raised the spear beside him, "If the general cannot win this battle, he will give his life to them. All heroes of Da Chu, follow me."
Qu Wan let out a long sigh as he watched Wang Shubo rush to the battlefield with his last reserve team.
At this moment, on this bloody battlefield, I have invested more manpower than the opponent. If I am still defeated, I will never have a chance again. The cavalry of the Han army arrived at the right time. It can only be said that they have been peeping left and right. As soon as they found out that Wuguan was in danger, they would immediately come to reinforce them. They did not have to participate in the battle, but they were able to drag down their own large troops. Dead.
Mei Hua walked back and forth several times on the top of the mountain, and suddenly grabbed Long Bin, "You lead your regiment to guard Shaoxi Mountain for me. If I don't participate in this battle, I will regret it for the rest of my life." "After saying that, regardless of how Long Bin reacted, he picked up his big knife and rushed up the mountain in a hurry. As he ran, he shouted: "Except the soldiers of the first regiment, everyone in the third division, follow me. Cut the fuck off."
As time passed by, Wang Shubo felt that his hands were getting heavier and heavier, and he could hardly lift his spear. However, the Han troops in front of him seemed endless, and they were still pouring towards him in an endless stream. What he could see of Wuguan City was getting blurry in front of his eyes. He didn't know whether it was because he was so tired that his eyesight was dazzled, or because his army was being forced to retreat step by step.
"Kill!" He roared desperately, mechanically raised his spear, and kept stabbing forward.
Mei Hua was eager to kill, howling, and slashed horizontally and vertically with the sword in his hand, opening a bloody alley in the crowd, deeply embedded in the Chu army. A moment later, on his right, another hand The sword wielding guy also rushed out. The two of them looked at each other, and Mei Hua couldn't help but laugh, "Uncle, I'm here to save you, but you have to remember my favor."
Wu Ya was furious and slammed the hilt of his knife on the ground. "Go back to your Shaoxi Mountain. When will I need your rescue?"
"What are the two little bastards doing? When are you still angry? Believe it or not, I will spit on you to death." Behind them, there was a roar. The two turned around, and Yang Dasha, dressed in red, appeared in front of them like a demon god. Behind them, on the armor, red blood was dripping down. Both of them trembled. This was the sequelae left by Yang Dasha when they were in the first company. Don't look at the two of them now. We are both teachers, but when Yang Dasha yells, both of them will tremble!
"Follow me and kill them all!" Yang Dasha roared and rushed forward, while Mei Hua and Wu Ya, one on the left and one on the right, guarded both sides of Yang Dasha. The three of them moved forward side by side. Rushing forward, just like the most dangerous battle on the Donghu battlefield, the three of them killed the enemy in this way. In that battle, there were less than ten people left in the first company.
Qu Wan watched Wang Shubo's army being killed and retreating with a deathly expression. He stood up, closed his eyes, turned around for a long time, and walked towards the rear.
"Ming Jin, withdraw your troops!" His painful voice came from the wind (To be continued.)
