Chapter 4762 Passively beaten to lure the enemy in
Tan Daoji gritted his teeth and said in a deep voice: "There is no other way now. Our previous reserves of crossbows and slings were basically used up when dealing with the immortal monsters, and the remaining bows and arrows also have to deal with the slaves.
I'm afraid that the Kongming lanterns coming from the air cannot be used in formation battles. If the two armies are connected and fighting together, the enemy's wooden armor machine will be difficult to use. This is our opportunity. As long as everyone uses their lives, don't be afraid.
Sacrifice and hold on until dark is victory."
Zhu Lingxiu said in a deep voice: "How about asking Brother Daogui for help? Even if a thousand reinforcements and fifty thousand bows and arrows are brought, it will be enough for us to repel the enemy, or twenty or thirty cartloads of stones will be good.
At least we can destroy these wooden armored robots. Without these things, the enemy is just an infantry attack, so even if there are ten thousand more, we won't be afraid!"
Tan Daoji shook his head: "The situation in the Chinese army is not good, otherwise it wouldn't be possible to mobilize two thousand soldiers from us before. The strength of the monster thieves is several times that of ours, which allows them to attack from all directions at the same time.
Attack and maintain pressure, and our army's physical strength and ordnance have reached their limits. However, time is on our side. As long as we can withstand it today, within one or two days, whether it is Lu Zongzhi in Dangyang
Men, horses, small stones, and even Jiangling's defenders will come to support us. At that time, it will be time for us to turn from defense to attack and completely eliminate these demon thieves, as well as these Tiandao Alliance thieves in the rear."
Zhu Lingxiu nodded: "Understood, now a single move can affect the whole body. If we ask for help from the Chinese Army, even if the Chinese Army transfers a few soldiers, horses and ordnance, they may not be able to withstand it. The demon thieves are now
The purpose of violently attacking our rear army is to mobilize our troops everywhere. We must not be fooled by them. In this case, can we consider taking the opportunity to counterattack once or twice? If we defeat the enemy's charge, can we do the opposite?
Go straight to the enemy's wooden-armored robots and destroy them in close combat?"
Tan Daoji pondered for a moment and shook his head: "No, we have erected fences. While increasing our defense power, we also limit our mobility. It is not easy for the enemy to invade. We want to knock down these fences and then
It is even more difficult to kill out. Moreover, we have less than 3,000 people left now. Nearly 2,000 are heavy-armed spearmen, and about 1,000 are crossbowmen. If we want to fight in close combat, we can only rely on the crossbowmen to switch to swords and axes.
, they become jumping soldiers to attack. They are not specially trained for close combat, and their abilities cannot meet the requirements. Even if they are allowed to directly fight these wooden armored robots outside, I am afraid it will not be easy to win."
Zhu Lingxiu sighed: "What if our heavily armed spearmen came out in formation and advanced to the wooden armored machine men, and then all their guns came out to defeat and eliminate these machine men?"
Tan Daoji said flatly: "It's even more impossible. Although the heavy infantry has excellent protection, it moves slowly and can only fight in formations. The personnel are densely packed, shoulder to shoulder, and people are on top of each other. Now they are protected by fences.
The long-range attack of the A-armor cannot cause too much damage, and after all, we are a hundred steps away. But if the distance is close and away from the fence that can weaken the crossbow, then our losses will increase tenfold or a hundredfold.
, it may even take less than fifty steps to attack, and most of the troops will be lost and unable to take shape."
Zhu Lingxiu's expression changed: "Is it really such an exaggeration? Just a few dozen wooden armored robots, placed on the flat ground in front of us to attack us, can break our heavy armor phalanx?"
Tan Daoji sighed: "Because they are high, and they have heavy crossbows and catapults. If they stand at a height of two feet and fire at our formation, it will be difficult to resist their attacks. A large shield can prevent them."
Live frontally, but facing attacks from the air and overhead will be very troublesome, unless..."
At this point, Tan Daoji curled up his lips: "Unless we can find a way to use up the long-range attack weapons of these wooden armored robots and wait for another quarter of an hour to let them launch, based on my understanding of the thieves' wooden armored robots,
They can probably fight for another quarter of an hour or so. That's why I'm going to use the last eight-stone running bull crossbow to fire it now."
Zhu Lingxiu's eyes lit up: "You want to make the demon thieves think that our bows and arrows are still enough, and they can hit as many weapons as they want with eight-stone running bull crossbows, so they are wasting their time with us."
It’s useless, once it gets dark and the sun sets, they will have no chance, so they will let the wooden armored machine speed up the attack and use up all the long-range bows and arrows, right?”
Tan Daoji smiled slightly: "That's it, this is the Suspicion Strategy. Time is on our side, but the demon thieves have the high advantage of the wooden armored robots. Only by letting these wooden armored robots take the initiative to fight us in close combat can we have any chance.
opportunity, so I have to lure them to use up their bows and arrows, and then these wooden armored mecha men will press to the front line and directly attack us in close combat."
Before he finished speaking, he heard a cry of observation scouts from the front: "The enemy's wooden armored machine man is moving and is moving towards our barracks!"
The two stopped talking and looked straight ahead. Under the light of the setting sun, they saw more than thirty wooden armored robots. They had stopped firing, and even changed from a semi-crouching position on the ground to standing upright, facing towards the enemy.
He walked slowly forward, followed by hundreds of Chu army archers, firing diagonally upwards as they walked. Occasionally some crossbowmen rushed forward and fired a burst of fire at the Jin army's camp fence.
.
The sounds of "peng" and "pounce" were heard endlessly. Many arrows were immediately nailed on these shields. Some wooden shields that were not thick enough were even broken into two halves and shattered on the ground, exposing the back of the shield.
The holding sergeant is waiting. Soon, a new wooden shield will be pushed to the front. On this line behind the fence, the front more than 300 paces wide always maintains a seemingly indestructible shield wall. And the shield
Behind the wall, a forest of spears stretched forward, exuding a chilling murderous aura.
Hu Longshi was holding a long spear and standing at the front of the first row. In his eyes, the enemy troops outside the fence, accompanied by the cover of more than a thousand archers and crossbowmen, were getting closer and closer. However,
They were still hiding behind these wooden armored mechs intentionally or unintentionally, just providing them with some bow and crossbow cover so that they could approach the Jin army's line faster and safer.
Hu Longshi turned his head and looked to the rear. An eight-stone running bull crossbow was placed behind it. On the crossbow arm, there was a three-foot-long broken spear. The operator behind looked at Hu Longshi longingly and said: "Big Hu
Brother, this is the last one, do you still want to fight?"
