Power and Empire Chapter 3083: Nan Fenglie (11)

On the first day the empire competed with the Chinese and Bianya army, the three lines of defense outside Deyang were baptized by imperial methods.

In the face of strong defenses, the Imperial Army has already had a fairly systematic attack method. In fact, with the expansion of the empire and the deliberate training of the Imperial Emperor, the Imperial Army is already rare in this era. The professionalization of the army, a large number of young soldiers who have been trained in the war, constitute the backbone of the imperial army, especially the rapid development of imperial long-range weapons, which are composed of imperial crossbows, thunder gods, and slings. Combat has become the main mode of battle of the Imperial Army. In the Western Continent, all opponents who have fought against the Empire know that once the Imperial Army completes the formation, the difficulty of the war will increase geometrically, so The best way to see the imperial army is not to attack or defend, but to retreat. There is no one.

But the Central and Bahrainian Army obviously doesn’t know this,

The infantry teams of the empires lined up on the attack line, countless imperial crossbows began to pour toward the wall, and the heads of the Central Biya Army suppressed by the dense clusters of arrows could not be lifted. The arrows of the steppe cavalry Although the rain is also severe, the prairie cavalry's bow penetration is not enough. For the Central and Biyarian army with city walls and shields, this threat is not lethal, and at this moment, it is under the arrows of the imperial army. , The Chinese soldiers habitually leaned their backs behind the crevices of the city walls,

"Don’t look up, no matter how powerful the arrow is, it’s like that. It looks scary. Can it still shoot through the stone? These arrow rains won’t last. When the arrow rain passes, the emperor will attack” an infantryman The captain clenched his weapon and leaned against the city wall. Although he was so frightened that his legs were weak, he insisted on cheering his pale subordinates.

"Yeah, don't look up, I see what they can do!" Soldiers think so too

"Boom" was a piece of rubble flying across. The shout of the infantry captain stopped abruptly. Under the horrified eyes of the soldiers, the infantry captain's body was like a hose that was blown up. The body was turned into fragments, splashes of scary red, blood mixed with minced meat, hit the faces of nearby soldiers like raindrops, and on him, the castrated metal arrow continued to move forward, until another soldier was thrown away. The body was firmly nailed to the wall, and the person who was hit by the arrow was still looking at his pierced body blankly. Only at this moment was he reacted and uttered a hysterical howling, "Help me, help me, I don't want to... ...

The shout gradually became weak, and the dense cluster of arrows in the sky fell, and the whole body was pierced into a hedgehog,

"I don't want to die!" A irritated Central and Bahrainian soldier stood up and ran back. Before he could shout out, he was thrown to the ground by several arrows and rolled up the blood and dust. It was like a spear that was broken violently, leaning and falling to the ground, the body was gurgling out with human blood,

Silence, all the voices of speaking are gone, the sound of inhalation spreads in the air

"Eastern wall, the east wall is over!"

With a cry of exclamation, all eyes were frightened by the section of the wall that was riddled with holes. Hundreds of imperial ballistas fired on a certain section of the city. The traditional brick wall structure, the palm-like wall, was broken like a tofu block. The entire wall section was pierced. There were hundreds of pierced gaps and the battlements disappeared. I can’t see what’s going on behind, but the blood stains spattered from the broken position, you don’t need to think about it. I am afraid that there is a piece of flesh and blood behind every gap. Seeing such a **** scene, all the fighting spirit will suddenly become Running water

"The effect looks okay"

For the emperor, Suka, the deputy commander of the Imperial Wilderness Corps in charge of the Infantry Corps, curled his mouth slightly, put down the sight glass in his hand, a black armor of the Imperial General, and a large red cloak over his shoulders. Several people The imperial banner leader stood behind him, and the imperial catapults lined up were in a state of ready to go at any time, and the huge long arms were suppressed to the lowest level.

Because of Berrante Bonnie’s injury and training, the command of the Imperial Wilderness Army was divided into the hands of two deputies

The Imperial Wilderness Corps has a full staff of 130,000, and 30,000 logistics are eliminated. The real combat strength is 100,000. Among them, the cavalry is 30,000. The deputy commander Mulihe is responsible. The 70,000 infantry is the current deputy commander Su Ka was in charge, and this time he went south to raise the water. The empire mobilized a total of 70,000 troops, 10,000 cavalry, and 60,000 infantry, under the command of two deputy army commanders at the same time.

The original method of decentralization of command also made Berrant Bonnie, who is the commander of the army, dissatisfied. After all, it is common sense that the command and order must be consistent when fighting a large army. Otherwise, if it goes wrong, it may be an overturn, tens of thousands. How can human life and death be such a trifling matter, but Li Yuehua, who took over Dijing West Road, is completely a layman in the military.

"Since you are not at ease, then this time I will go south, I will personally direct it." It was the imperial emperor's tone that made Berrant Bonnie feel relieved, and the effect is obvious to all, because both of them are deputy commanders. , Whoever doesn’t want to press the other side, and knowing that the final command of this battle is actually in the hands of the imperial emperor, there is no need for any incentives. From crossing the big river to Yanghe, there are two or three. A distance of hundreds of miles, even if the cavalry is full of refugees, it will take two or three days. As a result, the Muli River crosses the river and immediately disperses the five thousand cavalry into more than one hundred teams, reducing the blockage caused by the refugees. In two days of delay, Mulihe’s cavalry had already approached Yanghe, and then rushed into the land of Yanghe like a hurricane. The 100,000 Central and Biyarian army shrank hurriedly, even the Suka of the infantry group. Arrived in Yanghe on the fourth day, which is far below the requirement of six days for the imperial emperor

"My lord, in fact, our army can completely press it on. Whether it is equipment or combat power, it is not difficult for the Chinese and Bianya army to defeat them." An imperial banner commander said hesitantly. To tell the truth, the Chinese and Bianya army is in front of him. For the emperor who had swept all the way from the Northwest War, it did not constitute much blocking power. Moreover, some intelligence showed that these 100,000 Chinese and Biya Army forces were forcibly left behind because of the above orders. Those who resist, don't even have the most basic defensive will. How much resistance can such an enemy have? The generals of the empire were all killed in a sea of ​​blood in the corpse mountain. Whether the opponent has the will to go on a battle, it’s just felt it right after the fight

"Your Majesty’s order is not to defeat, but to encircle!" Suka retracted his gaze from the front, twitched his grim face, and said in a cold voice, "Break out and encircle, it is obviously much more difficult to encircle, and the Empire This time, the troops going southward is only 70,000, but in front is the 100,000 Central Biya Army, and 70,000 surrounds 100,000. This is the problem we need to face. We originally thought that the opponent should be under the raid by the Mulihe Cavalry. Will choose to evacuate early, but the opponent may be too confident and chose to confront our army. Mulihe has already beautifully forced them to Deyang. We can't let Mulihe and the others watch jokes."

"As the order goes on, the archers of the various armies must not stop. You must pour all the arrow clusters over within an hour." Suka turned to the ordering cavalry behind him and ordered. In fact, the empire's arrow rain tactics follow The emperor’s military tactics are becoming more and more well-known, so the effect is less and less obvious.'But Suka, as the infantry commander, still did not interrupt the slightest change. What I want is this kind of overwhelming arrow clusters. The momentum of the attack requires a sense of powerlessness under the overwhelming sky and the earth, no force can stop, what else can make the enemy feel desperate than this kind of sky almost covered by arrow clusters,

Countless battles have proved the effect of the arrow rain tactics. Even if it is an enemy who has fought against the empire many times, the only feeling at this moment is that it is too small to do anything

After the arrow strikes, it is a key attack on a certain area with the Empire heavy ballista. "Winter Thunder" is Suka's own name for this tactic. If the arrow cluster in front is autumn rain, then the current heavy crossbow Concentrated salvos are Donglei. This tactic was even praised by the emperor himself, and it was included in the emperor’s command manual. Sure enough, this was suddenly taken out, and the unsuspecting Zhongbian army was destroyed. After being defeated, as the diamond crossbow arrows blasted the front city wall riddled with holes like a rainstorm, the morale of the Chinese soldiers seemed to be emptied.

"The catapult!" Sukka did not move and continued to give orders, like a giant catapult boom, suddenly bounced, and immediately hundreds of huge catapults were thrown out, playing the role of inertia. Down, draw an arc of death, and finally slam it on the city wall. You can see where it was hit. The crenels of the city wall were directly broken, and the round stone bullets ran over a group of panicked and out-of-control soldiers of the Central and Bianbian Army. Passing by, the Chinese soldiers in a state of semi-panic collapsed in pieces in front of the stone ball. It's like an overwhelmed plank, making a crackling sound, that is the sound of bones and body being crushed and broken

"Boom"

The "Boom Rumble" boulder flies like a rain of stone bullets on the city wall in front of you,

An hour later, in the rain like white lines in the sky, Suka raised his hand, "Go ahead, crush them!"

The imperial heavy infantry squad began to move forward, with heavy guns, cold and sharp steel shields, rustling war flags, steel walls, and orderly advancement. The flag is even more iron in the rain, in the air. No one spoke, only the faintly numbing footsteps. It was the imperial heavy infantry who stepped on and down neatly by tens of millions of people. The wind whizzed through the gaps in the queue and moved forward, looking like a big black. The ground is flaming red

This is the emperor, the Chinese soldiers above have been scared silly,

"How to fight this?" Look at the imperial heavy infantry that is almost covered in heavy armor from head to toe, like a steel monster. The Chinese soldiers looked at their crude spears with disastrous expressions. I almost wanted to throw it away. It’s too disproportionate. Look at the emperor’s armor, weapons, and shields. Which one has not been tempered and tempered. When I see myself, my hand is a wooden pole with an iron attached to it. The tip of the gun, the body is also a piece of leather armor, it is the captain level, and it is just a half-length armor. The two sides are not of the same grade at all.

Because of the terrible defeat in the Battle of Linhang, the remaining military forgings in China and Bialand have been completely destroyed. On the one hand, China and Biaya, who retreated to the mouth of the Sancha River, delayed large numbers of conscriptions to delay Yelujia’s southward pace. On the other hand, due to the extreme shortage of weapons, even the civilian blacksmiths have been expropriated. In order to save money, all of them are made by the most direct and simple manufacturing methods. The Asian side lacks iron. For this reason, it has signed an agreement to purchase iron ore with the Empire. Now it is even more important to produce enough iron for forging weapons as a soldier who has expanded outside the Long family. This is the treatment.

"No way, I can't fight anymore!"

Looking at the imperial heavy infantry pounced under the city, the Central and Bianbian army on the city wall is already in panic. Hundreds of thousands of crossbow arrows are pouring out. Even if they hide behind the city wall, they still suffer heavy casualties from the arrows~IndoMTL.com ~The key attack on the city section of the heavy crossbow convoy even broke the courage of the soldiers of the Central and Bianbian Army. The sling became the last straw that crushed the morale of the Central and Bianbian army, and it collapsed! The soldiers had already started to turn around and flee, and the situation was completely out of control. Even if the supervising team hacked and killed a few, they were also crushed by more defeats.

Three big cities outside Deyang,

Liyang is lost

Hua'an lost defense

Yuhe has no suspense in his defense!

"If it weren't for my personal order, I would really think it was the three cities guarded by 30,000 pigs! As a soldier, look at what it looks like now, it's embarrassing!" Tang Shui’s frustrated voice almost lifted the roof of the house, his eyes fell on the few people below who were kneeling on the ground, with a bleak face and blood-stained subordinates. A pair of eyes were red like rabbits, anyone in the middle of the night. Suddenly receiving such news, they will always look like this

Although the culprit of the emperor’s army was expected, Tang Shui did not expect that the 30,000 army that he arranged on the periphery to delay the advance of the emperor’s army would be defeated by the emperor’s army if he didn’t get it all day and night. Fighting through in one breath, the battle of Deyang, which was supposed to be a prolonged battle, turned into a battle of life and death overnight. Who can bear this kind of thing! If it weren’t for the guards from the three places to come back in a mess, Tang Shui would really think that the **** made such an unreliable joke with him

"General, it's not that we are greedy for life and fear of death. It is because there is a huge gap in equipment between the two sides, and the heavy crossbow slings carried by the emperor are even more powerful. Although it is not Thor, it is not under Thor!" A general of China and Piazza with a white cloth on his shoulders said with an ugly face, "Especially the arrow clusters of the opponent. The slingshots are like rain. There are even heavy ballistas that shoot at the battlements of the fortresses, stupefied to make the back of the battlements turn over. One floor, many casualties of our army are like this, and the generals are requested to be prepared."rw
