Chapter 477: Fighting Three

Although the cyclone cannons are scary, there are only three of them after all. The big rocks fly high and slowly, and there are traces to follow, and you can even avoid them in advance with the naked eye. The most deadly and vicious thing is the intensive shooting of crossbows and strong bows.

More than a thousand strong golden archers gathered a hundred steps away, basically out of the range of the bows and arrows on the mountain ridge. In addition, a large shield was used as a cover in front to prevent the opponent from causing damage by scattered arrows that could be thrown.

It is absolutely foolproof. And their strong bows have a range of 150 steps away and shoot diagonally upwards, which can completely cover a large area above the mountain ridge.

Bows and arrows fell like rain, dense and fierce. The area fifty steps behind the entire mountain ridge fortification was already within the strike range. Since there was no trace to be found, it was impossible to avoid it. Countless feather arrows fell like poisonous snakes with a terrifying sound of sizzling.

, some were nailed to the rocks on the ground and jumped, and some were nailed to vehicles, rice bags, and tarpaulins. There were falling bows and arrows everywhere, and there was no way to avoid them.

Originally, the soldiers and horses on the mountain ridge could all withdraw to the range beyond the range of bow and arrow strikes. After all, the area on the mountain ridge is very large, and a small part of the north area cannot be taken care of by bows and arrows. However, they cannot do that, because once they evacuate,

Fortifications, if the opponent launches an attack under the cover of arrow strikes, there will be no time to defend. Even if people are left to watch the opponent's movements, if the enemy is in position when attacking, they will still have to withstand the baptism of arrow rain from a distance of fifty steps, and they will inevitably

Many people would be killed or injured. Furthermore, the rear position was the key strike area for the Jin soldiers' cyclone cannon. The Jin soldiers obviously used the longer range of the cyclone cannon to make up for the shortcoming of not being able to cover the entire mountain ridge area. Of course, they were not stupid.

Unless everyone retreats to the lower slopes on the north side of the mountain ridge, what is the difference between that and giving up the battle? Once the enemy attacks, the mountain ridge will be surrendered, and all supplies will be given to the enemy.

Therefore, when the arrow rain struck, Fang Zian could only order a large number of men to hide in the blind spot behind the stone wall of the fortification. This was the safest place. The cyclone cannon was not so accurate, and the arrows could not shoot. However, the location was limited, so only

It can hide more than two hundred people. The arrow-proof shelter erected along the east hillside finally came into effect. This is a blind spot. After all, it is located under the steep mountain wall, whether it is a cyclone cannon or an arrow.

They rarely had the chance to end up here. Unfortunately, the space was limited and more people could not hide. The remaining seventy or eighty people had to adapt to local conditions. Some hid behind the sides of the cart, and some squatted behind the fortifications with shields.

.In short, under the attack of a thousand powerful archers with arrows as dense as locusts and the bombardment of cyclone cannons, the entire mountain ridge was covered in smoke and arrows, and almost no place was safe.

Soon, soldiers were hit by arrows one after another. Under such intensive attacks, even if they were handled properly, there was no guarantee that there would be no casualties. Three fire brigade soldiers were pinned to the ground by arrows falling from the sky while trying to avoid the impact of the cyclone cannon.

Soon, the corpse was nailed with arrows like hedgehogs. Two loyal soldiers were unlucky. They huddled behind the car with their shields on their backs. The big rocks from the cyclone cannon whizzed towards them. The two were unable to hide.

The man with the shield was smashed into a pulp, it was terrible to see.

Even if you hide behind the fortification stone wall, you can't guarantee safety. Because the target of several bed crossbows is the fortification wall. The impact and accuracy of the bed crossbow are second to none except for sharpshooters, and the bed crossbow's shooting relies on its strength.

The power of the bowstring makes the thick

The crossbow arrows shoot at the target in a straight line, so they are more accurate. The goal of several Jin soldiers' crossbows is to destroy stone walls. The thick-armed crossbow arrows are set with pig iron arrowheads, and there is a faint sound of wind and thunder after being shot. The mountain ridge

The slope is not very undulating. Just raise the bracket under the bed crossbow a little, and you can perfectly avoid the protrusions on the hillside and shoot up the hillside diagonally close to the ground.

The crossbow arrows hit the stone wall, and the rusty blunt iron arrows relied not on sharpness at all, but on strong force. Hitting the stone wall was like a hammer weighing hundreds of kilograms hitting the stone.

The big stone was blasted into pieces, and rubble exploded randomly. Once the middle and lower stones were blasted into pieces, part of the stone wall would collapse. Under the constant bombardment of the bed crossbow, the stone wall continued to collapse and was bombarded.

There were seven or eight collapsed gaps.

By this time, everyone's hearts had tightened up. Many people woke up from a dream and understood what they were facing. The power of Jin Bing was not just words. The Jin Bing had always been regular and had a variety of powerful killing weapons.

This is the truth. The enemy has completely crushed our own side in terms of means and strength. This is the truth. The victory just now was such a fluke. The opponent did not show any real intentions at all. How happy I was before, but now I feel so depressed and afraid. The soldiers of the Zhongyi Army are better.

After all, they had experienced too bloody scenes. However, the fire brigade soldiers had never experienced such a horrific scene. Many of them were holding their heads and shivering, and some were even so scared that they peed their pants.

Fang Zian huddled behind the fortification wall, raising his head from time to time to observe the situation around him. Fang Zian did not laugh at the performance of the earth-colored soldiers. He remembered what he looked like when he first went to the battlefield for the first time.

During training, I am excellent in everything, but when it comes to actual combat, I am really scared to death. As for the veteran veterans in the class, although their training results are not as good as mine, they all talk and laugh with ease.

, without the slightest fear. At that time, Fang Zian understood a truth. A real warrior not only needs to master combat skills, but more importantly, experience and psychological stability.

Now these fire brigade soldiers are overcoming this hurdle. After experiencing this battle, they will quickly transform. Just like those in the Eighth-Character Army, they have seen a lot, are very psychologically stable, and have long been accustomed to the cruelty on the battlefield.

Although they are not necessarily better than the soldiers selected by the Fire Army, on the battlefield, they will definitely crush the Fire Army soldiers. During the Chinese New Year, they had a competition in the Bazi Army camp. It was just a game, not at all.

A measure of strength.

"Brothers, don't be afraid. Haven't you noticed? They are sending arrows to us. In ancient times, Zhuge Liang borrowed arrows from straw boats. Today, we asked the Jin soldiers to send arrows. The Jin soldiers knew that we were short of arrows, so they shot

There are so many arrows coming up. These arrows can be used with a little arrangement, hahaha, we will return them to them later. But instead of falling on the ground, they are stuck in their bodies." Fang Zian looked at the arrow rain and strong force in the sky.

He laughed loudly amidst the wind and thunder of the crossbow.

Everyone listened and admired him very much. Master Fang could still laugh at this time. He was really brave. But what he said is indeed right. Most of the arrows on the ground can be used after sorting them. As long as the arrows are

If the arrows are not bald and the arrow clusters are not broken, they can be used for convenience. After a while, the arrows will be

Fang probably shot tens of thousands of arrows. Now he no longer has to worry about running out of arrows.

"Thunder Tiger, build fortifications. As many as they demolish, we will build up as many as we can. There are a lot of stones, even them on both sides. Let's see if they can turn all the stones into powder. The Jin soldiers are so crazy, which shows that before we

The beating hurts them. You should be proud of yourselves. We, a small team, forced the Jin soldiers to use such formations. This is a compliment to us. Come on, come on, everyone, move and build a wall.

, Build a wall." Fang Zian spoke loudly, reaching out and holding the collapsed stones on the ground, bending down to avoid the arrows, and rebuilding the gap beside him piece by piece.

Inspired by Fang Zian's emotions, everyone began to get up from the ground, bent over and started to build stone walls to fill the gaps. Once they started moving, they felt much better. They lay on the ground and did nothing, letting the opponent blast them.

Exploding randomly, that feeling is very frustrating.

The bombardment lasted as long as a stick of incense. The golden soldiers rained down tens of thousands of arrows, dozens of stone bullets and hundreds of crossbow arrows on the mountain ridge. Two carts were smashed, and tents and items were smashed in a mess. The fortification walls

After being blasted dozens of times and built up again, the lack of large stones caused the entire fortification wall to be a foot shorter. A total of more than 23 soldiers were killed and more than 30 were injured. All of a sudden

Nearly 60 people were killed or injured, which was the heaviest casualty since the mission set off. Even in the most dangerous battle out of Yanjing and into Xishan Pass, no one in the fire brigade died, but a few were injured.

Just people.

But in Fang Zian's view, this is already a very small loss. Under such intensive bombardment, only so many people could be killed or injured, which was already lower than his psychological expectations. And in war, people will die.

Including myself, we can die at any time, and no one can guarantee it. Although we feel sad when a familiar brother dies, we can't change it. The only thing that is gratifying is that these brothers who died in battle died without pain or inconvenience.

Either he was shot to death quickly by random arrows, or he was directly beaten to pieces by large stone bullets.

Although everyone felt uncomfortable, they had no time to think about these things, because the Jin soldiers were already gathering. The tornado cannons had stopped bombarding, and the ballistas had stopped firing. The arrows of the strong archers were becoming more and more fierce, which indicated that the opponent was coming.

A fierce attack is about to be launched under the pressure of bows and arrows.



At the foot of the mountain ridge slope, Xiao Huaizhong issued the order to attack. After some wild bombing and shooting, the top of the mountain ridge was filled with smoke and dust, and the scene was terrifying. Xiao Huaizhong was extremely proud, and he thought that the opponent should have been frightened by what he had done.

Not to mention the numerous casualties, they may have even been frightened and fled. They could have continued bombarding for a while, but if the opponent had already withdrawn from the mountain ridge, it would have been a waste of time and gave the opponent a chance to escape. So he

Not wanting to wait any longer, he ordered that under the cover of bows and arrows, the three thousand front troops began to charge with shields and quickly eliminated the opponent. Even if the opponent did not escape, there would probably be very few people alive.

"I hope that Fang Zian is not dead. I also want to meet this character. I heard that he predicted that I would betray him before Xiao Yu's incident. I want to ask him personally how he knew. Half-immortal? Hahaha,
Chapter completed!
