One Step to The End: 1319 The two armies confront each other

The weather in mid-June was getting hotter and hotter like a war. King Yan's army and the corpse-collecting army fought against each other for seven days. Not many people were killed on both sides, but the infantry of King Yan's army were all in place. , the front is steadily advancing toward the river.

"Don't rob, please, leave us some food..."

The villagers in the whole village were crying. The corpse bandits have been active in Runzhou for nearly a month, and they have never harassed the people. They don't bring any counter-offers when they buy food and wine, but King Yan's army is more than bandits. It was so bad that even the villagers stole the pigs and sheep for food, leaving everything in a mess.

"Hurry up! Be sure to complete the deployment of positions before dark, and recruit some more strong people..."

King Yan rode on his horse and yelled loudly, turning a blind eye to the crying villagers on the roadside. The huge artillery team brought a larger logistics team, which required more manpower to transport, and the consumption of people eating horse chews was also very high. Amazing, they already felt overwhelmed.

"Don't be in a hurry, the more critical it is, the more stable it is..."

Wei Wuya slowly rode over and said, "There is a problem with the supply line of the corpse bandits. It may be that the output of the arsenal cannot keep up. The firepower of the past two days is getting weaker and weaker, and the main force has withdrawn to the defense line. But there are also problems in Jiangning City and Yangzhou!"

"Oh?"

The King of Yan said in surprise: "What happened? Didn't Feiying say that the corpse bandits only besieged and not attacked, and Yangzhou's strength should not go wrong?"

"There are only two flying eagles left to be slaughtered. How dare you come close to investigate, and you can't see the name..."

Wei Wuya said: "I sent people to risk their lives to cross the river to inquire. The 20,000-strong Tiger Army attacked Yangzhou City by surprise. Three days ago, they landed on Jiangning City. The prefect of Jiangning ordered artillery fire. Wharfs and main roads, Jinling and Jiangning are all isolated cities!"

"It seems that the corpse's bone, we have to bite hard..."

King Yan shook his head nonchalantly, but Wei Wuya said: "The Tiger Mighty Army is flat, and there are 20,000 troops in Jinling City. As long as we push the front line in front of them, they will definitely split up and attack, and the corpses will be attacked. If the bandits are attacked, they will be in chaos!"

"I hope so, anyway, this king never expects to shoot the sun..."

The king of Yan cocked his mouth in disdain, but with the help of a large number of strong people, the front was advancing quite rapidly. He reached the set position in the evening of the same day. Standing on the front mountain, he could see Jinling City in the distance, and Jinling City was also in the distance. Finally lit the wolf smoke.

"Damn it! Are these corpses all rats, digging trenches everywhere..."

The generals of King Yan's army climbed to the mountain, and they used their eyesight to look into the distance. The wilderness of Yima Pingchuan was dug like a maze. There were criss-crossing trenches everywhere. The effect is not great.

"The cavalry of the corpse bandits is in the northeast and cannot meet the foot soldiers. They can only choose to defend..."

Bai Lirong stepped forward and said, "Their field guns don't have as long a range as ours, and they are almost out of ammunition. Let's send another wave of soldiers to waste their ammunition, and then use cannons to bombard them. Finally, the cavalry rushed forward. Break the formation, the infantry will cover and kill, and you're done!"

"To put it simply, the cavalry rushes over and gets stabbed, people can stab the horse's stomach in the ditch..."

A veteran general frowned and said: "You have to jump into the ditch to kill, you can't use long weapons, you can only rely on swords and shields to fill in. Let's bombard them with cannons overnight, and wait until they are full of fighting spirit. When there is no time, the infantry will rush to the formation in the early morning, and they will be defeated in one fell swoop!"

"That's true! The corpses are all cloth armor, and they can't fight against our heavy armored infantry. Even if one is replaced by three, it is worthwhile. It's better to let the Jinling artillerymen also go out of the city and bombard their mothers together... "

A group of generals strategizing on the hilltop

，The location of the corpse collection army is very fucked. The cannons of Jinling City can't be blasted. If you want to send troops, you have to cross two hills, which is equivalent to lining up to be bombed. range to suppress the opponent.

Night is coming soon...

The battalion of King Yan's army was brightly lit, and the army was constantly being mobilized. Although the corpse collection army was under control of the lights, there was no shortage of crossbow and small cannons. After several feints, they were bombed back, and there was no intention of retreating. There is a taste of life and death.

"Dong Dong Dong..."

The artillery of King Yan's army finally fired. Tonight was surprisingly dark, the sky was covered by dark clouds, and all I could see was the continuous burst of fire, but the 400 large iron cannons were powerful and divided into three sides and bombed alternately. , plowed the position over and over again.

"Boom blah blah..."

Jinling City finally opened fire to cheer. Although they couldn't blow up the position, they could also create psychological pressure on the corpse collection army. If the corpse collection army did not want to fight to the end, they had to retreat to the riverside and take a boat, and they were separated from each other. The cavalry was even more isolated.

"Bang bang bang..."

Waves of flares were continuously shot into the sky, and the corpse-collecting army had no intention of escaping. It was still guarding against the enemy's sneak attack at night, and the King Yan's army did not waste expensive ammunition. , is purely disturbing the enemy's nerves.

"Hurry up! Disperse the charge, don't focus..."

It's midnight!

With the continuous burst of fire, tens of thousands of heavily armored infantrymen rushed to the position. They all smeared their faces and armor in black, and walked quickly with iron and wooden shields, and they came within the range of the enemy. Just started to accelerate, but their artillery fire also suddenly became violent.

"Boom~"

A large row of people suddenly disappeared in unison. There was actually a long pit on the ground. The pit was full of spikes smeared with shit. The angry Yan Wangjun shouted and jumped over the more than two meters wide. Sink into the pit, but did not run very far, and another group of people fell into the pit.

"Say his grandma! Rush me over with a springboard..."

The young generals jumped and cursed in anger. They only thought about the progress of "technology", but they forgot the pits of primitive war, and the pits were not all strips, and there were many large and small holes. Accidentally fall into the hole.

"It's here, let me rush..."

The shielding artillery fire suddenly stopped. King Yan's army took the initiative to fire flares, and 20,000 light-armored swordsmen and shields rushed to the front, but there were still many wooden blocks in front of the battle. People who had never seen the wire rushed forward.

"Ah! There are thorns and thorns, don't push me..."

The foot soldiers were stabbed and screamed, and those who were surprised quickly waved their knives to chop, but the iron thorns were pulled away in circles, and they were chopped down and bounced back, and the entire position was set up several times. The platoon, just stepped on the body of the companion and jumped over, and was immediately entangled by the iron thorn.

"Shoot!"

The people who collected the corpse suddenly exposed their heads, laying on the trenches and throwing crossbow arrows. Mortars were fired in pieces, and they exploded in the enemy's army, but the Yan army's artillery did not dare to fire. If you don't get it right, you will blow up your own people.

"Boom blah blah..."

The mortars kept blasting in the enemy's army, and the hordes of infantry kept blasting into the sky, but it was impossible to retreat at this time. The supervising team was leading the knife in the back. After coming out, the 30,000 foot soldiers could only bite the bullet and rush forward.

"Iron Cavalry! Scatter charge..."

The King Yan's army finally dispatched the cavalry. The mortar also has a minimum range, and it will not explode if it reaches within 600 paces, and the flares are just like those who don't need money, and they are shot into the sky in pieces. But no one thought of the sudden

Then it rained.

"Haha~ God help me too! God is helping me, the corpse is gone..."

King Yan took a group of people to the top of the mountain in person, and excitedly opened his arms to welcome the heavy rain. When the heavy rain came, the artillery would be useless. It would be good to ensure that the ammunition would not get wet. Don't think about firing the artillery. They also took the opportunity to send more infantry.

"Boom blah blah..."

Suddenly!

A large number of artillery shells flew horizontally, and they exploded in the far right flank troops. The bombed cavalry troops turned on their backs for a while, and the sound of the artillery on the position became more violent, and it increased more than ten times at once. It seems that Been waiting for this rain.

"What's going on? Why are they still firing guns, and where did the long-range guns come from..."

King Yan turned around in horror, Wei Wuya's face changed suddenly, and he said in shock, "They didn't use fuse-pointed cannons, they made fire caps, so if you have fire caps, you won't be afraid of rain. Affected, these **** have been waiting for rain!"

"Your Highness! It's not good..."

A general rushed up and scrambled and said in a hurry: "The corpse cavalry have been holding back, but they are actually covering their far-range artillery. They are attacking our army's right flank, and we can't even see the artillery position. , our iron cannons can't fire anymore!"

"This gang of bastards, let the right flank attack, be sure to capture their artillery positions..."

King Yan shouted angrily, but when he turned his head to look, the battle line on the position was actually stretched again, the soldiers who collected the corpses ran away along the trenches, and the artillery moved to the farthest foot of the mountain, still arrogant. put the mortar on the ground.

"Not good! There are mines in the trenches..."

Wei Wuya suddenly exclaimed, and the swordsmen and shields jumped into the trenches one after another, but they were bombed into the sky one after another without running far, and the trenches were not connected at all. Running in a ditch can only spin around in place.

"No hurry! Interval launch..."

The corpse artillery has already set up a canopy, and fired artillery shells without rushing or slow. Mortars are fine as long as they are not submerged in water, and they are special tools for trenching. They have already calculated the best bombing spots. , a shell can take away more than a dozen people.

"Cover up the gunpowder, don't let it rain..."

The two artillery positions were also very busy. The rain was so heavy and sudden that the gun barrels were all filled with rain, but before they could be cleaned up, a series of artillery shells suddenly smashed over them, knocking them all at once. Sent to the West.

"Wow~"

After a burst of earth-shaking explosions, half of the night sky was illuminated, and the corpse-collecting army gave a huge cheer. Their large mortars did not have a long range, but when it rained, they put the guns in front of them. Moved, and directly came a hair into the soul.

"Monster clan! Look at yours, let me charge them all..."

Wei Wuya gave the order viciously. A tall and thin general nodded, turned and jumped down the mountain and gave a roar. Thousands of foot soldiers immediately roared in unison, tearing apart their armor and clothes, turning into A terrifying tall monster.

“Ow ooh…”

Thousands of werewolves, fox demons, pig-headed monsters, etc., rushed out like a group of savages, faster than ordinary horses, and the soldiers of King Yan's army discovered in horror that King Yan really It's not the enemy army spreading rumors at all.

"Not good! The monsters are coming up, hurry up and focus your firepower..."

The Corpse Collector also used binoculars to find the demon soldiers, but the power of the mortars is still small. Even if the monsters are blown away, they can get up again with a shake of their heads, and still rush to the position...
