Chapter 715: The Line of Defense Collapses
The sound of shouting in the desolate wild wilderness was deafening. The two sides fought to the death around the camps of the rebels. The bodies on the ground were spread layer after layer, constantly rising.
As the corpses increased, they finally became flush with the fence, so that the attacking 20th Army soldiers did not need to climb the fence, but could directly rush into the rebel camp by stepping across the corpse mountain.
More than 100,000 people from the 20th Army continued to fight and rush towards the camps of the uprising army like a tide. Although the number of uprising soldiers guarding was comparable, their combat effectiveness and weapons and equipment were one level behind.
After about half an hour of fierce fighting, a unit of the 20th Army commanded by Liu Wenwu had already broken into the camp. Although the rebel army mobilized several times of its troops to try to annihilate the enemy troops that broke in, the other party was like a stone and they could not chew it at all.
The 20th Army soldiers who invaded the camp of the rebel army were embedded in the defense line of the rebel army like a nail. The defense line of the rebel army was concave into the inside and could be broken at any time.
On the other lines of defense, all the troops were under fierce attacks, and gaps appeared in many places. Facing the fierce 20th Army, the rebels gradually lost their physical strength.
Although the 20th Army was a servant army that surrendered to the Hanhai people, it was not considered a Hanhai army in the true sense, and its combat effectiveness was not as good as the Hanhai elite. However, they fought many battles with the Hanhai people, which was considered to be a battle of many battles.
Moreover, the 20th Army followed the Hanhai Army and the Hanhai people were all brimming with meat and soup. In addition, they shared the logistics supply of the Hanhai people, and the soldiers were all strong and strong.
In contrast, because the number of soldiers in the rebel army was too large, there was a lot of logistics supply gap. Most of the troops had a meal without the last meal, with pale face and thin skin. In addition, the elderly, weak, sick and disabled were mixed with them, and the combat effectiveness was naturally greatly reduced.
"General, let's retreat, brothers can't stand it!" The soldiers of the rebel army shouted at their commanders while slashing at the vassals who were constantly attacking.
"What are you going to retreat! Even if you die, you have to resist me!"
The generals of the rebel army who were in charge of commanding the defense of the camp shouted at the soldiers of the rebel army: "Brothers! Kill me!"
Although the slogans were shouted loudly, the gap in combat strength was there. It was not easy to block the ferocious 20th Army with just a fence.
Teams of 20th Army soldiers, like wolves and tigers, attacked the camp, and the uprising soldiers who rushed up to block them were chopped to the ground by the other party just after just a meeting. Blood flowed, and the injured and undead wounded soldiers lay on the ground and groaned in pain.
Many soldiers of the rebel army sneaked away when they saw that the situation was not good, but were soon taken off by the supervisory team and their heads were cut off. They were dead if they ran away, and they were dead if they didn't run away. The soldiers of the rebel army were in trouble. Not only did their morale not rise, but they continued to fall.
Seeing that the gap in the defense line was getting bigger and bigger, and more enemy troops were rushing into the camp, the general of the rebel army responsible for commanding the defense pulled over a liaison soldier and shouted: "Go and ask for help from Commander Zhao!"
The contact soldier was frightened by the roar. It was not until the rebel general kicked him that he was rushing up from the ground and stumbled towards the rear of the camp.
The camp of hundreds of thousands of people in the rebel army covered a very wide area. The Hanhai army began to attack from the east, while the central army's tent was in the center of the camp, and it was more than ten miles away from the combat area.
The contact soldier rushed to the trench, led a thin horse and waved the whip and rushed out. Countless people were knocked to the ground by war horses, but he only had to ask for help in his mind, and he could not care about anything, allowing the wind in his ears to blew by.
"Master Commander!Master Commander! The front cannot stand it anymore! Reinforcements are urgently needed!"
The contact soldiers rode their thin horses into the Central Military Camp, and the shouting sound came from afar.
Because he rushed too quickly, the thin horse fell down the contact soldier from the horse's back, which made him grin and grin. However, thinking of the task assigned to him by the general, he stood up and went straight to the central army's tent without caring about the pain.
But as soon as he stepped onto the steps, he suddenly felt something was wrong. Why was it so quiet? He looked around and there was not a single army in the middle army, leaving only an empty camp. He just ran wildly, but he didn't notice it.
The liaison soldiers rushed into the big tent, which was empty and the ground was messy. Their commander Zhao Yun and the generals had long disappeared.
The contact soldiers did not care about the pain all over their bodies, ran out of the tent, turned over and rode on their horses and ran towards the surrounding camp, but it was still empty and everyone had already evacuated. It was obvious that the evacuation was in a hurry and many things were not available to take away.
He looked at the empty Central Army camp in a daze, not knowing what to do for a moment? He came to ask for help, but there were no one left. Who should I ask for help?
In the end, the contact soldiers decided to return the situation here to their general and let their general decide to seize it. Thinking that he beat the horse and rushed back to the way he came.
Liu Wenwu's army attacked more and more fiercely, and the front line of the camp was completely lost. The enemy troops attacked by Zhao Yun as an abandoned son fought hard in the camp, and the losses continued to rise.
"What? There is no one in the central army camp?!" After hearing the report of the panting contact soldiers, the general of the rebel army widened his eyes and grabbed the contact soldiers' collar, his face full of disbelief.
"Ahem... General, there is not a single big tent in the central army, he ran away." The contact soldiers' voices were a little crying, and they were abandoned.
When the generals of the rebel army heard this, they felt as if they were struck by lightning. They were abandoned like this. Then his face was filled with anger and he cursed at Zhao Yun.
"General, what are we doing now?" The blood-filled officers around him were also filled with righteous indignation and turned their eyes to their backbone, the commander of the corps.
"What else can I do? Zhao Yun has fucked away. We are waiting to die here! I will send the order to let the brothers retreat too!"
No one was willing to be a scapegoat in war, and the angry commander of the corps issued an order to retreat without hesitation.
After the rebel army, which was entangled with the 20th Army of the Servant Army, received the order to retreat, turned around and ran away without thinking, which made the people of the 20th Army stunned, but they didn't think so much and shouted and chased them wildly.
As a corps retreated on the defense line, a huge gap appeared in the entire defense line. Seeing that the situation was not good, the other commanders of the rebel army ran away one after another, and the entire defense line collapsed.
Zhao Yun originally thought that he could treat these corps as abandoned sons, and that more than 100,000 people could resist for one night, but less than an hour had passed, and someone from the back team caught up and reported that the camp was broken by the Hanhai people.
"This group of waste!" Zhao Yun cursed in anger, but listening to the shouts of killing behind him rolling in, Zhao Yun was also afraid of being beaten by the Hanhai people, so he hurriedly led the soldiers to run wildly to the west. (To be continued)
