Chapter 1472: The Han Banner World (162) Desperate Attack (Part 2)
The night came as scheduled. Although the snow stopped, the wind was even more bitter and the temperature seemed to be lower. After receiving a notice from Helanjie, Helanxiong, who had begun to move abnormally, stepped onto the platform. The lights in the Qin army camp opposite were brightly lit, and smoke columns soared into the sky. The fragrance of the wind made Helanxiong realize that the other party had actually started to bury the pot and cook rice at this time.
"The other party is going to attack." Helanxiong said to Helanjie: "The Qin army is about to attack at night, and Wang Changyong is going to go alone. Get ready for the battle."
The Han army, who had just been preparing to enter the bed, were re-dressed and entered the position one after another. Piles of bonfires were lit before the Han army's position, illuminating the entire position. Helanjie led the main force into the attack position, and Chen Hui led another unit to circumnavigate to the left wing, preparing to attack the Qin army sideways, while another general Mao Shijin circled the wing.
As time passed by, the Qin army's actions became strange. Through the telescope, Helanxiong saw the Qin soldiers' tents that had been overturned, tore the tents into pieces, wrapped the cloth around his body, and the rest wrapped the snow and carried it on his shoulders.
The sound of the warlock sounded, and the Qin soldiers divided into several routes and advanced forward in a mess. There was no formation, and there seemed to be no organization of officers. They just stepped on the snow randomly, but walked forward unswervingly.
The Qin people basically no longer have long-range weapons. In order to speed up the retreat some time ago, they abandoned almost all their baggage weapons, which made them unable to use long-range suppression weapons.
The soldiers walking in the front rolled the snow on their shoulders on the ground and rolled into a snow ball, and then several people worked together to push the snow ball forward. As their distance became farther and farther, the snowball became bigger and bigger. In the end, they had to rely on the power of more than a dozen people to push the snow ball forward.
"You can think of this trick." He Lanxiong was a little dumbfounded. Unfortunately, he did not have artillery now. Like the other party, in this big detour, in order to pursue speed, he did not bring heavy weapons.
Helanjie stopped in a position. A semicircular fortress was built with ice and snow here, and three magic crossbows were arranged. The crossbowmen were paying attention to the increasingly clear Qin army. When they saw the huge snowballs rolling in front of the Qin army, they were all shocked.
"Fuck, this is OK!" Helanjie scratched his head, and he had to say that in a critical moment, people could always think of some incredible tricks. These huge snowballs could not only block the shooting of the crossbow, but also destroy the barbed wire arranged by the Han army on the front positions and fill the built walls.
Taking a deep breath, Helanjie shook his head. Fortunately, he had arranged other means dozens of meters ahead of the position. Otherwise, this battle would have entered a fierce hand-to-hand combat at the beginning. This was what the Qin army yearned for, and it was not what the Han army wanted. The Han army had always used superior weapons to suppress the enemy, minimize the number of enemies involved in hand-to-hand combat. Reducing casualties on their own in the war has always been the goal pursued by the Han army. Although the Han army was never afraid of fighting with the enemy.
When he recruited his personal soldiers, he whispered a few words, and watched the personal soldiers turn around and run away. Helan Jiepeng took off the bow and arrow from his back, raised a rocket, put it on the string, squinted his eyes and aimed at a place ahead.
The enemy appeared thousands of meters away, and the Han army's positions were brightly lit, and the Qin army also held countless torches to reveal the open space between the two sides. The Qin army was resting for a short time and recovering its strength. Helanjie noticed that there was no military flag in the Qin army.
His heart contracted slightly. These Qin troops were determined to die. Before attacking, they must have dealt with all their military flags. This means that they had no hope of victory in this war, but only launched a desperate attack. But such enemies are the most terrifying, because they did not aim for breaking through and winning, and they had only one goal, which was to cause the greatest casualties to the Han army.
After a brief pause, the Qin army began to advance again. The snowballs had been rolled quite large, one by one, blocking almost all the Qin army figures behind them. Five hundred meters, four hundred meters, and three hundred meters, the Qin army was getting closer and closer. Under normal circumstances, the Han army's divine crossbows had already started to scream and harvest the enemy. But now, these snowballs blocked the Qin people and blocked the crossbowmen's sight. The Han army waited patiently for the boss to issue a shooting order.
Helanjie stood on the fortress. At the same time, on the position, a Han soldier stood up every distance. Like Helanjie, he held his brother's bow and arrow in his hand.
Two hundred steps, Helanjie lowered his bow and arrow, and the soldiers below ignited the flint and ignited the fire-burning object above the arrow. Helanjieping picked up the big bow and narrowed his eyes.
Two hundred steps, one hundred and fifty steps, he suddenly pulled the bowstring, aimed slightly, and with a buzzing sound, the rocket took off the string, and with a buzzing sound, the rocket was shot out by hundreds of equally burning rockets. These shooting soldiers were all excellent archery skills among the Han army.
The rocket fell several steps in front of the rolling snowballs. As these rockets shot into the ground, a loud noise came immediately. The rolling snowballs were collapsed into snow powder flying all over the sky. Among these flying snowballs, there were also the broken arms and limbs of Qin soldiers who were pushing the snowball forward.
The explosion continued to sound, and the huge snowballs rolling in front of the Qin army's positions were blown up in two or three places. On the Han army's positions, the Divine Machine Crossbow immediately rang.
The crossbow covered the rain swept the Qin army that was clamoring and rushing to the ground one by one, but the Qin army, who was determined to die, did not fall to the ground because of the robes ahead and hesitated at all. They shouted and rushed forward, until they were caught in an arrow. The Qin army's corpses were soon filled with the distance of more than a hundred meters.
However, the distance of more than 100 meters is obviously too short for the defense of the Han army. Under normal circumstances, the Shenji Crossbow can start shooting at about 300 meters. Above this distance, the Shenji Crossbow can carry out multiple rounds of shooting, but at a distance of more than 100 meters, a normal soldier can rush over in more than ten seconds. After the Shenji Crossbow shoots the crossbow in the arrow box, he needs to change the arrow box. It is this short gap that immediately made the Qin army rush forward.
"Grenade!" Helanjie roared sharply.
The infantry quickly ignited the grenades and threw them forward. At this time, the Qin army, who rushed to the front of the position, also desperately threw pottery grenades to the Han army above the position.
Explosions sounded, and countless people fell down on the Han army's positions at the same time. Compared with the Han army's grenades, the pottery grenades had much less lethality, but even so, hundreds of Han army members lost their combat power in an instant and were dragged down by the long-prepared support.
A barbed wire was placed in circles on the front line. The Qin army rushed to the barbed wire, untied the tent cloth covered with it, spread it on the barbed wire, and then immediately climbed up. Under the pressure of the soldiers' weight, the sharp barbed instantly pierced the thick tent cloth and penetrated the soldiers' exposed palms, but these Qin soldiers were still crawling forward with great strength.
The divine crossbow that had been silent for a moment sounded again, and countless grenades were flying in the air, and people on both sides kept falling down. On the frontier positions, the Qin army quickly filled the passages with their bodies, and the barbed wire was flattened or completely covered by the bodies. More Qin soldiers stepped on the bodies of their companions and rushed towards the Han army's positions.
The Divine Machine Crossbow began to extend and shoot in the distance. On the position, spears were placed on the low wall. Behind the spearmen, a famous sword and shield hand knelt on the ground on one knee, ready to rush out to fight at any time.
When the Qin army began to launch a desperate attack, the New Qin army began to go out to camp several miles behind them. Unlike the Helanxiong tribe in front, they had heavy weapons. Pack horses pulled artillery, and tens of thousands of soldiers came out in full swing and advanced towards the place where the battle took place. Although Wang Jian, Huang Ming and other New Qin generals were mixed with emotion, they knew very well that they could not avoid this battle, nor could they avoid it.
Half an hour later, Huang Ming clearly saw the tragic tragedy on the battlefield, but beyond his expectations, they did not encounter any obstacles on the road to advance by the New Qin army. They originally thought that the Qin army would set up positions halfway to block the New Qin army to protect their rear, but they had nothing. It seemed that the Qin army had used all its power to attack forward.
Huang Ming was a little dazed. Looking at the Xin Qin army that had already set up its formation, looking at the cannons that had raised their black holes, Huang Ming had not ordered too much fire.
After a few hesitations, under the banner of the central army behind him, the sound of war drums suddenly rang out. It was Wang Jian who was urging him to launch an attack. The fierce drum sound already represented Wang Jian's dissatisfaction. Huang Ming closed his eyes suddenly, pulled out the sword at his waist with a choke, "Let's fire!" he shouted loudly.
Hundreds of cannons suddenly erupted flames, and flowering bullets fell towards the Qin army ahead with a whistling sound. Huang Ming closed his eyes tightly and couldn't bear to observe the battle situation ahead.
At the forefront of the battle, Wang Zhijun heard the loud noise coming from behind. He turned around and looked at the shells with the sound of death flying in the night sky. He smiled bitterly, turned around, held the iron spear in his hand tightly, and said sternly: "Old Qin men, kill, kill Han dogs!"
He jumped over the short wall in front and rushed into the Han army's position.
The sound of artillery kept ringing, but the Qin army did not turn around. They rushed to the Han army position ahead. Wang Changyong stood under his central army flag. This was the only remaining military flag of the Qin army. He closed his eyes and began to sing the Qin army's battle songs gently.
"I will retaliate against Lao Qin and restore my country. My blood will not flow dry and I will never stop fighting!"
The singing slowly spread out, and more and more Qin soldiers sang war songs while launching a desperate attack on the Han army in front. The singing overwhelmed the sound of explosions and shouts on the battlefield.
A shell flew over and landed under Wang Zhiyong's central army flag. After a loud bang, Wang Changyong lost his trace, and the huge military flag fell on the snow and began to burn.
In Huang Ming's closed eyes, tears kept flowing, and the Qin army's war song made him suffer to the extreme for a moment.
The drum sounds changed behind him again, Huang Ming opened his eyes and shouted in a hoarse voice: "Strike!"
