I’m The King Chapter 1132: : Carry on the past and open up the future (22)
He Yu and the surviving guards gathered together to form a small infantry assault square. He Yu personally acted as the tip of the triangle cone and launched an assault on the group of enemies rushing forward. Combination, the mutual cooperation of offense and defense, for the Han army, it is usually practiced so familiarly that it can be used naturally without having to think about it. Overwhelmed by the soldiers brought by He Yu, a dozen strong men who were still alive and kicking turned into corpses lying on the ground in the blink of an eye.
But the whole battle situation made He Yu feel terrified. The soldiers driving the carriages who did not have time to get together were defeated one after another in the single-handed battle with the enemy, and some of the enemies who rushed out met them. For the engineers who had just rushed back, the battlefield there was the real reason for He Yu's despair.
Those people are by no means ordinary Zhuang Ding, their style of fighting is exactly the same as that of the regular army of the Chu army. He Yu and the Chu army fought in Qi and Linyi. Having fought more than a dozen battles with the Chu army led by Qu Wan, he can distinguish the Chu army's fighting style at a glance.
"This is not Zhuang Yong, this is the regular army of Chu State!" He Yu shouted.
Liu An laughed loudly and led two hundred Chu troops to surround him, surrounding He Yu and the last dozens of people: "You know too late, kill, kill them all."
The battle did not last for a long time, the absolute difference in numbers, the combat effectiveness of the two sides is also strong and weak, it is impossible for a troop with heavy supplies to compare with the capabilities of the combat troop, but within half an hour, He Yu and his luggage fell down.
Liu An pulled out the knife from He Yu. After wiping off the blood from the knife on He Yu's body, this guy's last desperate effort, the steel knife scraped across his scalp, and if he lowered it by three inches, his head would be cut in half. as a soldier. He admired such an opponent very much, but as an enemy, he hated such a tenacious guy extremely.
There were no prisoners left at the scene. Even if every enemy was chopped to the ground, they still tried to hug the enemy with both hands, without weapons. He opened his mouth wide and bit, and several of his subordinates' calves were bitten down by such a guy. He was scolding and bandaging at the same time, because of the opponent's resistance. All the people, including the wounded, were killed by the angry Chu army.
Tearing off the felt covering the carriage, Liu An's eyes lit up when he saw the shiny black heavy weapons. "The Divine Machine Crossbow, this is the Divine Machine Crossbow. Damn it, we made a fortune this time!" He looked up to the sky and laughed loudly. The first time the Divine Machine Crossbow appeared on the battlefield was on the battlefield where Linyi faced Qu Wan. In that battle, this kind of crossbow with extremely long range and powerful force. Shooting down rows of charging Chu soldiers like cutting wheat had once become a nightmare for the Chu army. Unexpectedly, they have now been equipped to the battalion level.
Tearing off the felt cloth on all the carriages, Liu An was pleased that there were actually eight such magical machine crossbows, but none of them were found on the bed crossbow. Obviously, the opponent has already eliminated such a bulky weapon as the bed crossbow.
Except for the magic crossbow. The small trebuchet also interested him very much, compared with the Chu army's trebuchet. The trebuchets of the Han army were obviously more sophisticated, but unfortunately time did not allow him to try a few rounds here. The last two vehicles dragged steel pillars and some spare parts. According to Liu An's knowledge, these must be parts of a large siege equipment, dragged to the battlefield and then assembled.
Seeing this, Liu An couldn't help feeling a little worried. A battalion-level troop is equipped with such powerful firepower. Can't handle it.
Of course, you don't have to think about this issue now, at least you don't have to think about this battle right now.
Turning his head and looking behind him, his soldiers were happily peeling off the armors of the dozens of guards on their opponents, and it was no wonder that their soldiers were jealous. The armor worn by the opponents could not only hold ordinary arrows , and can withstand the stabbing of the spear, if you are a little weaker, you will not be able to break through the opponent's armor, and on the battlefield, such a mistake is enough to kill a soldier.
No wonder the Han army has been invincible and invincible over the years. Soldiers with such equipment, on the battlefield, compared with their opponents, are inherently superior. I really don’t know that upstart in Han Where did he get so much money and equip his soldiers with such extravagant weapons. What's more, the fighting power of these guys is also admirable. Liu An was startled by the well-trained counterattack of the dozens of soldiers led by the chief of the opponent. He knew very well that his subordinates did not have such combat power, but this was not the main force of the opponent's field battle. How strong is the main force? In the field battle, if the Chu army faced such an army, would there really be any hope of victory?
It may be possible to win one or two games with cleverness, but it cannot fundamentally change the overall situation! Different from the general generals of the Chu army, Liu An was born in a wealthy family. His father sent him to Yingcheng since he was a child, and he learned a lot at any cost. This knowledge also gave him an incomparable vision that ordinary generals cannot match. When the battle reaches a certain level, the national strength is the comparison. General Bi Xuan believes that the national strength of Chu State is far superior to that of Han State. The current disadvantage is only because the Han army beat Chu by surprise. Once Chu State recovers, Now Liu An felt that the argument that Han would no longer be able to pose a threat to Chu might not be accurate.
If there is no money, how could it be possible to equip these guys who are not the main force at all so extravagantly? You must know that the main force of the Chu army has not reached this level. Among the tens of thousands of soldiers in Pengcheng, only General Bi Xuan Only your personal guards can compare with them!
"Catch up with the still moving carriage, return to Zhuangzi immediately, and go, if you don't want the enemy to come and cut off your head!" Liu An looked at his soldiers and shouted loudly. In this battle, the soldiers led by him did not suffer much losses, but the Jianghu masters selected from his father's village suffered heavy losses. Why is one equal to ten? Thinking of his father's words, Liu An couldn't help laughing. These brave and ruthless guys are just rookies on the battlefield, and they can't play much role at all.
In Tucheng, Fu Jiang who received the news was like five thunderbolts. The entire baggage company was attacked and killed, and all the baggage was captured by the enemy. It was the first time that Fu Jiang didn't need to think about it, but he also knew how angry Captain Mao Afu was when he heard the news.
"Who did it? Didn't it mean that there is only one Chu army in Tucheng? Where did the enemy attack us come from?" Fu Jiang roared angrily.
The company commander of the second company, Xie Rong, bowed his head and thought for a while, and reminded: "Battle commander, before we set off, the head of Mao Tuan once said to beware of moths in Luliu Village, but we walked too fast, and we didn't send any A force to guard this direction."
Fu Jiang was stunned for a moment, and after thinking for a long time, he remembered that before he set off, the head of the team seemed to have said such a sentence, but at that time he was excited about getting the forward, and the head of the group just said something in passing, and he did not care.
But something has happened now! Fu Jiang is very clear that he is the only one responsible for this blame, and he can already imagine his own fate.
"Xie Rong, gather your second company immediately, and level the Green Willow Village for me!" Fu Jiang clenched his fists and said ruthlessly.
"Battalion Commander, our battalion lost a lot in the morning battle. If I leave, the enemies in Tucheng may not come out to fight back. From the battle in the morning, it can be seen that this Chu army is a strong enemy. Their command He is also a very clear-headed person. We must not underestimate the enemy, and we don't understand Luliuzhuang at all, our eyes are darkened, and we don't know how many enemies there are. The battalion commander and the baggage company add up to nearly two hundred people. Completely wiped out this team, not even a single person ran out, even if the enemy set up an ambush in advance, at least the number of troops is more than double theirs, otherwise with He Yu's ability, he would not be killed on the spot, now we can't divide our troops, We can only focus on one place and report to the head of the group, and let the head handle the Green Willow Village, we will concentrate on fighting the current battle." Xie Rong said.
Fu Jiang sighed, "You're right, but now we don't have the cover of long-range weapons, and another charge will only damage our hands in vain. As you said, the enemy is not as weak as we imagined .Let’s rest in place.”
Received Fu Jiang's report, Mao Afu was furious. As Fu Jiang said, this was the heaviest loss of the New Army since its establishment. Even though Xiaoshan Pass was fought so hard, it was never completely wiped out by the opponent.
"Why didn't Fu Jiang go with the baggage company? Why didn't he warn Luliuzhuang? Didn't I tell him to be careful?" Mao Afu shouted at Fu Jiang's messenger angrily, and the messenger bowed his head. He started: "Regimental Commander, now Battalion Commander Fu is resting in place, waiting for the regimental commander to send reinforcements. Battalion Commander Fu has sent a reconnaissance team to investigate the specific situation of Luliu Village, and will report to the regiment headquarters as soon as possible. Escalate."
Mao Afu took a deep breath, and gradually calmed down. Fu Jiang's underestimation of the enemy may have a lot to do with his emotions. Looking at it, right now, since the opponent can easily destroy one of his supply companies, the opponent's combat power must be reassessed. This time, he managed to grab the vanguard position, but he was greeted with a blow to the head. First, not to mention that the division commander will clean up himself, I am afraid that the entire Second Regiment will lose its head in the division. Only when Tucheng and Lvliuzhuang are wiped out in a thunderous manner, can the face lost this time be restored a little bit. .
"Qiu He, take your second battalion to Lvliuzhuang, and you will take over the scouts sent by Fu Jiang. After finding out the details of the enemy, I will raze Lvliuzhuang to the ground." Mao Afu said with hatred Dao. "I will immediately lead the third battalion and the troops directly under the regiment headquarters to Tucheng. We must take down Tucheng before the division commander arrives at Tucheng."
"Yes, commander!" Qiu He, the commander of the second battalion, said loudly.
"Be careful, don't repeat the mistakes of the first battalion!"
"I know the leader!" (to be continued)
