Chapter eight hundred and fifteen
In the valley, Huan Jun blew the horn of attack.
An army of nearly 150,000 people marched into the canyon in a neat phalanx, pressing against the wind army.
At this time, the Feng army standing on the pile of rocks was a little frightened. If there were more than 10,000 people, they would be boundless;
You know. Looking around, you can't see the ground. All you see are people. There is no need to fight. Just such a scene is terrifying enough.
However, the Sanshui Army is also a battle-hardened army. No matter how large the lineup is, it has seen it. Although people are nervous, they do not feel fear, not to mention that among them there is Shangguan Yuanrang who is invincible to ten thousand people. Shangguan Yuanrang
Standing on the pile of rocks, Li Dao watched the enemy army approaching in huge crowds on the opposite side step by step. He didn't even blink his eyes, but instead raised the corners of his mouth with a look of contempt on his face.
"kill--"
The first to attack on the Feng Army's side was the Feng Army on the mountaintops on both sides of the canyon. Following Liang Qi's order, arrows rained down from the top of the canyon, shooting towards Huan Jun's head. In an instant, there was a sound in the Huan Army camp.
There was a scream, and many soldiers were still walking forward. They were hit by arrows on the top of their heads and fell straight to the ground.
I saw that the originally neat lineup suddenly had countless gaps.
However, the Huan army reacted quickly. The entire army immediately raised their shields and set up a shield array. More than 100,000 people raised their shields together, forming a huge steel shield. The silvery shield reflected the sunlight, making it blindingly bright.
The arrows hit the shield array and made a clanging sound. Although they could pass through the gaps between the shields from time to time and kill the enemy soldiers below, their power was greatly reduced.
Liang Qi, who was on the mountain, calmly raised his command flag and waved it in the air.
The Feng army understood and changed their tactics to reduce arrow shooting. At the same time, a large number of soldiers lifted up the stones and tree stumps that had been prepared, walked to the edge of the cliff, and smashed them down with all their strength.
A shield can block arrows, but it cannot block falling rocks and tree stumps.
The stone hit the shield, but the shield was not broken. Instead, there was a crisp sound of bones breaking under the shield. Due to the force of the impact, the arm holding the shield was instantly broken. The shield held high above the head fell on Huan Bing's head along with the stone.
The stump is so powerful that it knocks people to the ground in an instant; the stump is not as heavy as a stone, but its attack range is wide, and it can knock down a group of people after falling. Even if someone is lucky enough to survive, the shield will be smashed.
Falling, losing the protection of the shield, in the blink of an eye he was shot into a hedgehog by a steady stream of falling arrows.
Under such an intense attack, Huan's soldiers fell one after another. In the canyon, corpses were piled on top of each other, and blood flowed into rivers. For Huan's army, the charge at this time was more like walking on a road of death.
No place is safe. No matter where you stand, huge rocks, wooden piles, and arrows may fall from the sky and land on your head at the next moment.
The Huan Army's charge was to go all the way and die all the way. This short section of the canyon of more than 100 feet has become a distance that countless Huan Army soldiers will never go out. By now, the Huan Army has completely used men to advance.
The soldiers were all numb. Even if someone was smashed into meat pie by a sudden falling boulder, the comrades next to him would not take a second look and just walked forward numbly.
The wind army on the mountain was also numb. At first, people aimed to throw stones and shoot arrows downwards. But gradually, people no longer aimed. They lifted stones and threw them downwards. They took out arrows and shot downwards. People
I didn't even want to take another look into the canyon. The scene there could only be described as a blur of flesh and blood. Broken limbs and broken arms were scattered everywhere. The blood stained the ground red. If Huan Jun in it fell,
, even if you are not injured, you can still become a bloody man when you get up again.
When the Huan Army regiment at the forefront was only a hundred steps away from the pile of rocks, not even a thousand of the ten thousand soldiers were there, which shows how brutal the advance was.
However, their misfortune was not over. Seeing the enemy entering their own range, Shangguan Yuanrang fiercely pulled out the three-pointed double-edged sword, waved it forward, and shouted: "A hundred steps away! Fire arrows!"
Tao Yu smiled bitterly and shook his head. He was the chief general here, but when Shangguan Yuanrang came, he became an idler.
Shangguan Yuanrang was not the commander-in-chief, but the soldiers of the Feng Army were willing to obey his orders. He shouted and fired arrows, and the 30,000 Feng Army soldiers behind the pile of rocks all shot out their arrows.
This round of arrow formation once again dealt a fatal blow to the Huan Army Corps, which had less than a thousand men. After just one round of arrows, only about a hundred Huan Army soldiers were left standing. Fortunately, the Huan Army Second Corps
The remnants of the army have followed, and they merged with the few remaining soldiers of the First Corps and continued to advance.
Within a hundred steps of entering the pile of rocks, it is even more difficult to move here. There is an arrow array from the wind army in front, and there are rolling logs, smashing stones, and scattered arrows overhead.
In the entire two regiments of Huan's army, no one came even fifty steps closer to the pile of rocks. They all died on the way forward. The soldiers with better luck were able to shoot two or three arrows back, but the vast majority of Huan's army did not fire one.
He died tragically in the canyon.
The two regiments were completely wiped out, and no one left the battlefield alive. However, the Huan army did not give up. The remaining army continued to advance, and the people walked forward numbly, stepping on the broken corpses of their comrades.
The opponent's large-scale suicidal breakout was quite beyond Liang Qi's expectation. As the battle continued, the rolling logs and stones prepared by the Feng army began to be insufficient. Liang Qi made a prompt decision to allocate part of his troops or go to cut down the trees.
, or to collect stones. In addition, he also ordered the whole army not to throw and shoot arrows blindly, but to aim at the enemy before taking action.
The rolling logs falling from the mountains on both sides of the canyon weakened the strength of the rocks, which gave the Huan army a rare opportunity to charge. Seeing this opportunity, Xu Qing ordered the entire army to speed up their march and make sure to cross the pile of rocks and charge out.
With rolling logs and rocks falling from time to time on their heads, the third regiment of the Huan Army still retained more than half of its strength when it advanced a hundred steps into the pile of rocks. Its commander was also uninjured. It was already within the shooting range of a hundred steps. The commander of the regiment roared.
Said: "Let the arrows go, the archers let go of the arrows!"
At his order, the archers in the crowd raised their bows and arrows and fired volleys at the Feng Army above and below the stone pile. While they were shooting arrows, the Feng Army's arrow formation also arrived, and for a while, there were sounds from both camps.
There was a scream of being hit by an arrow. However, the Feng army had many more archers than the Huan army. When they fired at each other, the Huan army's casualties were much greater than those of the Feng army.
The commander of the third corps kept commanding among the crowd, asking the infantry to charge with shields in front, and the archers then released arrows. His command was not wrong, but with only a few thousand people, how could they charge over 30,000 wind troops?
arrow shot?
With each round of arrow formations coming, a large number of Huan troops were hit by arrows and fell to the ground. After the five rounds of arrow formations by the Feng Army, only a few hundred Huan troops were left out of the original five thousand or so.
A captain in the army watched his brothers fall to the ground one after another after being hit by arrows. He rushed to the commander of the regiment and cried out: "General, withdraw. The Feng Army's arrow array is too fierce. We can't even attack."
stay home!"
"Don't be so damn verbose. If you can't rush out, you have to rush for me. If you die, you will die in front of the formation!" The regiment commander grabbed the captain's collar, pulled his neck and shouted.
During the attack, Xu Qing had already given the order. The first regiment was to be wiped out, and the latter regiment was on top. Those who died in the battle were heroes. Those who escaped from the battle would be killed by the regiments following behind.
Xu Qing gave such an order, how could the corps commander dare to retreat? He would rather die in front of the two armies like the previous two corps commanders, rather than die in the hands of his own people.
"Keep charging! If you are greedy for life and afraid of death, I will kill you first!" The regiment commander raised his sword. He wanted to scare the commander, but a stray arrow flew over and hit the commander in the back of the neck.
, with a popping sound, the bloody arrow poked out from the captain's throat.
The corps leader was still holding on to his armor at the collar, but his body had softened, his pupils were dilated, and his face turned gray. The corps leader was frightened and horrified, and subconsciously took two steps back, raised his eyes and looked around again.
Look, some of the soldiers around him were hit by arrows from time to time. Some were hit by arrows in their vital organs and died on the spot. Some were injured by arrows and fell to the ground. They screamed repeatedly and reached out to their companions for help, but the brothers around them were not waiting for them.
He stepped forward to rescue him, but was hit by several arrows and was nailed to the ground alive.
This is the power and terror of the Fengjun Arrow Array. When the arrows rain down from the sky, even the most experienced veterans have nowhere to dodge. Even if they hide behind the corpse, the arrows can still penetrate the corpse and shoot it.
kill.
Hundreds of soldiers were shot into hedgehogs in the blink of an eye. The commander of the regiment was protected by spiritual armor, but he could not withstand the continuous shots. He was hit by arrows in several places, but he managed to hold on without falling.
He yelled like crazy and ran forward with his sword raised.
The Feng soldiers above the stone pile raised their arrows one after another, targeting the enemy generals who were charging towards them, and fired their arrows in unison.
Pounce, pounce, pounce - hundreds of eagle feathers all hit the body of the regiment leader. The spiritual armor on the latter's body was shattered into pieces, and his original appearance was no longer visible, and his body was covered with feathers.
The body hit by the arrow ran forward a few more steps before stumbling to the ground and unable to get up again.
The third regiment of Huan's army was also wiped out, with no one surviving.
The battle was far from over. Next, the fourth and fifth regiments of the Huan Army rushed up one after another. At this time, the Huan Army completely ignored the Feng Army's arrow array and ran forward regardless of it. People seemed to have become
The wood that does not know how to think has forgotten what fear is.
The enemy troops rushed closer and closer, from a hundred steps to fifty steps to the stone pile, to twenty steps, and then to ten steps. The wind troops on the stone pile could clearly hear the breathing of the opponent.
At such a close distance, the Feng army could no longer fire arrows. People shouldered their bows and arrows, picked up shields and steel knives, and prepared to engage in a close battle with the enemy.
