Chapter 333        The Moving Mountain

Qiu Haohui began to experience the benefits of having air force entering the battlefield early the next morning. The airship that took off in the air reported that a baggage team was threatened, giving Qiu Haohui plenty of time to send cavalry troops to support him. When the cavalry of Tianxuan Army surrounded the baggage team in the middle and slowly walked slowly, the enemy was already in sight. But in this case, the Northern Liao army could only retreat in disappointment. Since the airship had been paying close attention to hiding its tracks, the Northern Liao team of cavalry was even exposed for some reason.

But Ye Tao knew that the situation was not optimistic when he came back from the report. The one who was carrying out the work of breaking the supply line was actually the Flying Tiger Camp of the Western Army. He led this army that needed to be active behind enemy lines and might have to rely on plundering supplies to obtain his own consumption, perhaps Gao Senqi, who had a relationship with him.

If your friends are friends, you still don’t care about it on the battlefield, but Ye Tao knew that Gao Senqi is not simple either. The best situation now is that Tan Xiaopei’s method of protecting the supply line is really effective, making the other party unable to take action several times, and finally he can only withdraw and repair the problem because of the lack of supplies. After this high-intensity battle, even if an elite unit like the Flying Tiger Camp is replenished, once everyone’s spirit is relaxed, they will not be able to recover their mental outlook in three or two days and start similar combat again. And a few days of buffering is enough.

In fact, no side was prepared to give Flying Tiger Battalion a few days. Just after noon the next day, the Tianxuan Army, who had the minimum force to deal with the attack in the morning, took action. First, several battalions of cavalry swarmed out from the three towns, and spread out in front of the three towns in sight. This made the Northern Liao army, who was having lunch, nervous and immediately began to gather teams to prepare for the battle. However, the cavalry of the Tianxuan Army was just to win the time and space for the heavy infantry to arrange the array. The development of the heavy infantry units takes longer than the cavalry units.

But the heavy infantry who had rested had this kind of explosive power under the leadership of Qiu Haohui. Qiu Haohui, wearing cloisonné heavy armor, first walked out of the open door step by step. Behind him, teams of heavy infantry passed through the door hole in four columns, and then entered the battle formation accurately and quickly. Not much time, when the cavalry team separated to the two wings, the neat heavy infantry formation appeared in front of the Northern Liao army.

Now the Northern Liao army was panicked, especially the Northern Liao general Su Xin who was responsible for leading the army. Although he knew that the Tianxuan army had not used all his strength, he always thought that he had dragged the Tianxuan army out of exhaustion. Although he was attacking the city, he combined the cavalry flying and infantry and constantly shifted the attack points, so that the heavy infantry of the Tianxuan army, who was inconvenient to move, could not use all their strength to fight with him. Unexpectedly, today, the Tianxuan army suddenly set off and simply tried to do so.

Giving up the geographical advantage of the city wall seemed to be planning a decisive battle. But Su Xin had no intention of responding to the battle. It was not that he had not fought with the heavy infantry. The heavy infantry of the Tianxuan Army had already made him psychologically shady these days. On the top of the city, the Tianxuan Army also continued to start the tradition of the heavy infantry of the Blood Qi Army: the heavy infantry chopped people in the front, and the longbowers shot in the back without any difference. This move made the Northern Liao Army, which was far behind in the military, have no temper at all.

Now, after Tianxuan's army set up its formation, Su Xin was extremely head-on, so he had to hurry to order the entire army to pounce to the front line to observe the formation of Tianxuan's army.

"Look at the trouble you are causing." Su Xin said angrily. No wonder he once broke into the town this morning. Tianxuan Army only sent fighting infantry and some elite guards to defend the whole morning. Everyone thought that the heavy infantry of Tianxuan Army was extremely tired, so Qiu Haohui had to send his own personal guards to participate in the defense and leave time for the heavy infantry to rest. Everyone felt that victory was imminent. After all, once the heavy infantry collapsed, relying on the fighting infantry alone, the situation would not last long. Unexpectedly, the situation turned over before the afternoon came. Did Tianxuan Army actually directly engage in attack and combat with the time of renovation last night and this morning? What changes have happened to make the Tianxuan Army make such changes?

Su Xin's subordinates kept giving Su Xin a suggestion, and adjusted the queue to prepare for the battle in a short time. Heavy infantry was not without shortcomings. Heavy infantry was the black iron sword without a front, and they had no chance of speed. After unfolding the formation, they stepped towards the enemy in front of them step by step. Even the enemy who was slow to react could make the most preparations, but if it was not really sufficient, it would be impossible.

When the two armies were only a few dozen steps away, the Northern Liao army, which was suppressed by the gloomy atmosphere, rushed forward with a loud shout. The Tianxuan army stood firmly at the command of the officers. The heavy infantry in the first row pierced the tower shield into the soil. The soldiers in the second row took half a step sideways, aligning the gap between the tower shields one by one, allowing the enemy to rush to the front of the steel wall formed by the tower shields, the soldiers in the first row did not even frown and did not move at all, as if they were metal statues. The soldiers in the second row raised their hands and slashed hard from top to bottom... Just under this ordinary knife, blood splashed everywhere.

Su Xin spitted and ordered: "Where is the catapult cart? Bomb me."

"General, the two armies will fight together and fight to the point of their own people." The adjutant reminded.

"Yes," Su Xin said viciously: "But he would also kill the damn Dongping bandits. If he didn't do this, he would be completely finished here if he continued to kill him."

The adjutant responded with timidity and hurriedly went to give orders.

Huge stones hit the head of Tianxuan Army. The Tianxuan Army was still fighting without any change as if they were walking steel statues. The fallen soldiers were immediately covered by the surrounding comrades, and then they were pulled behind the battle formation by the fighting infantry rushing forward to receive treatment. The Tianxuan Army was so hunched by its own casualties, which surprised Su Xin. But in general, it seemed that the casualties of Tianxuan Army were not very heavy. Although some soldiers died on the spot, some soldiers only had soft tissue damage and bruises of varying degrees of severity, and even a lucky soldier was just knocked out. Indeed, the catapult car in the Northern Liao Dynasty was too unreliable, and the launch accuracy made Qiu Haohui shake his head.

However, even this precision fire could not continue. The crossbows brought by the Tianxuan Army were pushed out of the gate of the town, and a sulphur bomb was installed, and several consecutive shots were fired. Immediately, the difference in the level of the Tianxuan Army and the Bei Liao Army in operating heavy equipment was faithfully reflected. Just the first round of volleys, the Tianxuan Army directly hit two catapults and turned the catapults into torches. This is not the end. The next second round of volleys and the third round of volleys covered the entire catapults in a short time. In this environment, don’t expect the catapults to work well. Su Xin was even more annoyed. The Northern Liao side did not have a fire attack method, but the vine balls used by the Bei Liao were stuffed with rags soaked in oil, but because of the light weight, it became less accurate. Moreover, there was no powerful power of the sputtering type 2 of the turrets burning.

The Tianxuan Army was advancing steadily, like a moving mountain range. They always sweep the enemies in front of them, then the first row of soldiers pulled out the tower shield from the ground, took a big step forward, and then stumbled down, and attacked once to several times from the gap left behind, and went back and forth. Although the Tianxuan Army had an ancient tactic of cavalry guarding the heavy infantry and the two wings of the cavalry that everyone was tired of watching, this tactic made Su Xin have no choice. They are fighting on the city now, so there is no need to worry about their rear, and Su Xin did not have enough troops to defeat the wings of the Tianxuan Army in a short enough time. They could only watch the Tianxuan Army like a huge rock sliding from the top of the mountain, and like an avalanche rolling and gathering more power, and rushed towards him.

Just as Tianxuan's army was advancing smoothly, the airship team appeared. The airship team passed by the battlefield at a low altitude, and the formation formed in a row spread a sea of ​​fire. Su Xin's battle formation immediately became chaotic.

"Stay, stay steady!" Su Xin shouted loudly, but it was a bit futile. In the face of the attack in the air, everyone's reaction was almost the same. Even if some of the officers who were quick to think of it, they could not reduce their panic in their hearts. For the airship team, the bombing was easy to drive, becoming more and more skillful, and the bomb drops became more and more accurate. Now, some bomb droppers have figured out the dizzy airspeed tube adjustment.

The principle of the entire bomb dropper has been roughly understood how to adjust it to make it accurate, and it can attack ground targets more accurately in hovering. The airship team is now becoming more and more proficient in the trick of bombing once or twice and then starting to disperse and drive away the targets. So far, they have not encountered enemies who can survive two rounds of bombing without scattering away. In the first two rounds, it was not because of the courage or the small casualties caused, but because the enemy has not yet reacted...

"It's just over?" Qiu Haohui curled his lips and asked at the guards beside him. Everyone laughed. When the airship team exploded, the enemy who was already fighting in front of him was in chaos. The heavy infantry was originally steadily advancing with difficulty and became a walk. Although the soldiers were still cautious and did not carry any of them because of the chaos of the enemy in front of him, they were cautiously wary of the enemy turning around and biting back at any time, but... it seemed that this was just the inertial reaction of the Tianxuan army after Qiu Haohui had always been rigorous and serious training...
