Sun Bo did not hesitate and agreed immediately. He even felt a little dissatisfied with Ye Tao sending someone to ask him. Is there any need to ask this kind of thing? Heavy infantry is used to undertake the heaviest tasks, to become the mainstay of the entire army in decisive battles, crush the enemy in attack, and eliminate the enemy's tools in defense. The casualty rate of heavy infantry has always been very low, because from the establishment of the Blood Qi Army to the present, in Sun Bo's opinion, the battles they experienced were not enough. Since the light infantry can sacrifice, the cavalry brothers can sacrifice their lives and brave arrows and fall rocks to the enemy. Since the scouts cavalry have always been active on the verge of life and death to convey military information to them, their heavy infantry naturally dared to sacrifice, which is no different from those comrades.

Sun Bo also knew what method Ye Tao should use. In his opinion, if it was an ordinary army, it would inevitably panic under tremendous pressure and might collapse at any time. If an improper operation was used, casualties might be serious. However, the Blood Qi Army has never been an ordinary army. The Blood Qi Army is the strongest in all aspects, including combat effectiveness, fighting will, sense of honor, etc. Now, they still have reasons that they must not take a step back.

Sun Bo roared a series of orders, and the heavy infantry array was quickly adjusted. It was originally a relatively loose formation that was convenient for the killing ability of the long-handed sword with both hands, which was both offensive and defensive. In less than three minutes, although the team retreated by about twenty steps, the formation was also adjusted to a more dense defensive formation. Tower shields were placed in the front, leaving space between the shield and the shield for the long-handed sword to make the sword easy to kill. The Northern Liao army, which was originally unfavorable to attack, is now unable to use this formation, but the officers kept urging them, and they continued to surge up, wasting the physical strength and will of the Blood Kiri Army soldiers. Moreover, anything could happen on the battlefield.

Although the array of heavy infantry is very stable, there are always soldiers who will be injured in the attack. Although the new heavy armor of heavy infantry soldiers represents the pinnacle of heavy armor in the era of cold weapons, they still cannot fully protect all attacks, and there are always soldiers who will be injured. Once a soldier is injured, he will immediately inform the soldiers behind him, find the right time to change positions, and then retreat to the back to bandage and rest. If any soldier feels exhausted, they will do the same. The heavy infantry troops said before going into battle, don't fight hard at the beginning, they have only a few people in total, save themselves as much as possible, and replace rest and recuperate... They have to fight hard, and there is no choice.

As the array of heavy infantry contracted, the Northern Liao army naturally followed closely. Several officers discovered that the firepower of the Blood Qi Army's heavy equipment battalion became weaker and the shooting frequency began to become unstable. The ferry ships on the water quickly rushed to the beach and prepared to assault. At the distance from the waterside to the array of Blood Qi Army, many Northern Liao soldiers were congested. They roared and shouted, and attacked the array of heavy infantry again and again. Some officers suddenly discovered that the shooting of the Blood Qi Army's longbow battalion was sparse, as if they were now relying on the heavy infantry to resist.

"What's wrong with the Blood Qi Army? The battle hasn't started for a long time. With the combat power of the Blood Qi Army, it's impossible for it to be lacking in physical strength." Zhang Lixian muttered. Then he reacted: "No, this is deliberately attracting our soldiers..."

But Zhang Lixian reacted too late. Suddenly, a series of turbulent oil bombs emerged from his telescope. This time, the heavy equipment battalion did not fire a single shot, but installed a row of turbulent oil bombs on the slide rail of the crossbow. In this way, the range was indeed much closer, and we could only take into account the recent range and don’t hit our own people. As for the spread of the projectiles or the farthest range, we couldn’t care about it. However, all the crossbows fired in such a volley, and immediately came to the area where the North Liao sergeants were densely packed. However, all the crossbows were fired in such a volley.

After a firepower coverage... the bright explosion flames suddenly enveloped the entire river bank. When the explosion flames faded into bright flames, the entire river bank was filled with miserables. Through the light flames, you could vaguely see the heavy infantry troops, before a large number of sulphur bombs were covering them in front of them. The entire formation leaned towards the middle, and two rows of heavy tower shields supported a huge incline without gaps, which would lead the flames and bombardment waves that were gushing out towards the sides and above... What a difficult tactical action.

Since the Blood Qi Army played like this, they would naturally not let go of the soldiers of the Northern Liao army who were still crying. The Changbow Camp, which had a short rest, spoke. Three rounds of shooting went from straight-up shooting, and the curved shooting transitioned to the projectile, covering the entire river bank densely. Even though there were not many soldiers of the Northern Liao army still alive, the Blood Qi Army was too lazy to clean up the battlefield. There were no decent enemies in front of them. Through the telescope, the Northern Liao generals on the other side could clearly see that the Blood Qi Army's queue returned to what they had just now. Then with the sound of "rest in place", the soldiers were wearing armor and carrying weapons and sat down on the spot to rest. The baggage troops on the side quickly sent food and drinking water, allowing everyone to eat hot food during the attack gap of the Northern Liao army. The doctors accompanying the army rushed up and dealt with the injured soldiers urgently, and everything seemed orderly.

The Blood Qi Army seemed so calm, but there was no way for the Northern Liao side. Such coverage not only killed more than 2,000 Northern Liao soldiers on the river bank at one time, but also greatly damaged the morale of the Northern Liao army. It was no problem to restore the Blood Qi Army to a little physical strength.

"Hehe... it's really amazing." Zhang Li laughed in anger and said, "Let the soldiers eat and continue to attack after the meal."

During this rare combat gap, Sun Bo quickly ran to the command post and told Ye Tao about the situation just now. This tactic of relying on heavy infantry to resist most of the enemy troops, attracting the opponent to a small area, and then covering firepower is not the first time they played, but it is indeed the first time to engage in actual combat. The sulphur bomb hit the nearest place less than ten feet from the Shield Forest. Even though he was brave, he couldn't help but feel nervous. Fortunately, judging from the shooting results, the heavy equipment battalion obviously performed very well. This kind of combat not only killed and injured the enemy in large quantities, but also obtained a rest time. Sun Bo came to ask for instructions, would he just continue playing in one round?

"How are your casualties?" Ye Tao asked.

"It was originally a heavy infantry with a full battalion. Now forty-seven people have been killed in battle. Two hundred and ten people are seriously injured and 362 are not allowed to continue fighting. The combat power is maintained at more than 80%. Sun Bo replied calmly. The officers around him were silent. This was maintained at more than 80%, which is actually the most tragic number of casualties for the Blood Qi Army in a long time. Removing the light infantry completely relies on heavy infantry to withstand it. Although this tactic is effective and effectively reducing the overall casualties of the small half of the Blood Qi Army brought by Ye Tao, the heavy infantry battalion has to bear most of the pressure. What Sun Bo said about maintaining more than 80% of the combat power is obviously to continue to count the light wounded in the combat sequence.

"If I have the chance, I will still fight like this, but the other party will learn to learn. If you keep a closer look, I will let the light infantry battalion rise at any time." Ye Tao thought for a while and said, "Take a quick time to rest. It is a last resort to let you persist for so long."

He has specialized in his profession. Everyone knows that heavy infantry is a very difficult military. His usual training is boring. In addition to working hard and training endurance, he repeats the most basic tactical movements such as swinging swords, standing shields, ranks, etc. There are also very lively guys in the heavy infantry battalion. After taking off his armor, they are extremely active in the army, but when they put on armor, they immediately become firm and calm, because that is what they need to fight.

After hearing Ye Tao's orders, Sun Bo nodded and said, "Yes, Marshal Ye."

"Are there any difficulties?" Ye Tao asked.

"Master Ye, don't worry. Brothers are all good." Sun Bo saluted and left silently. Even though Sun Bo was skilled and skilled, he was already a rare master in the army, but the fierce battle just now cost him a lot. When he ran up, he was still excited about the fire fighting just now, but when he ran down the layers of steps, he was wearing heavy armor and not unloaded, and almost staggered and fell.

Ye Tao sighed, the war was so cruel. What they faced now is not the enemy that Baishicheng knew nothing about the Blood Qi Army and was completely unfamiliar with the Blood Qi Army's tactics, but the Northern Liao army that had been trained for many years with the Blood Qi Army as the imaginary enemy. Although the Blood Qi Army was tenacious, Ye Tao still felt heartbroken.

Zhang Lixian originally wanted to invite Gaosenqi to continue commanding the battle in the afternoon, but after hearing the situation, Gaosenqi said silently: "I'm going up, is there any difference?" and continued to let Zhang Lixian lead the entire army. Zhang Lixian could not imagine it, so he had to bite the bullet and go up. He was defeated for a while in the morning, with great casualties. After lunch, Zhang Lixian completely began to implement the tactics of the entire team of reincarnation attacks, first of all, 20,000 people were pressed up. Now, the floating bridge has been built across the river center, and some soldiers with good water quality can even carry weapons and swim across a small section of the river. The delivery of troops is much better than relying entirely on ships in the morning. This also made Zhang Lixian breathe a sigh of relief.

The Heavy Equipment Battalion has not fired at will now, and it seems unrealistic to destroy the pontoon bridge of the Northern Liao side. The Northern Liao side actually connected it with ropes outside the board of the pontoon bridge. Even if they broke a section, they could use it again after a little repair. The artillery can only play an interference role, but it cannot stop the opponent's continuous extension of the pontoon bridge. The Heavy Equipment Battalion simply concentrated its firepower on the river bank and concentrated its enemies together to fight. It was very stressful for Sun Bo and the soldiers under his command, but this was the most effective method.
