Chapter 2091 Guizijuan outpost battle, a wake-up call
Modlen slapped the earth platform in front of him bitterly.
This old yellow sheep is too stupid, so he doesn't know how to spread out. Although the impact that is too concentrated looks more powerful, it is more vulnerable to the opponent's intensive shooting and causes greater damage.
However, Modlen also knew the intention of the old yellow sheep, which was to completely knock down the city gate in one wave and then break through.
But he also thought of the enemy too simply. Although the Qingcaowu gang had poor combat effectiveness, they were able to fire and eat the Waving Sky Flag, which showed that Wang Chengwu still had some tricks. If they could do it in one fell swoop, it would be too much to look down on the opponent. .
Old yellow sheep Huang Bingyang, who was secretly cursed by Modlen, also had his eyes turned red at this time.
In less than two moments, he had already left behind no fewer than two hundred corpses. Seeing Erlang being carried down one by one, wailing and screaming, everyone around him felt pity.
These are all old brothers who are doing their best.
The arrows on the city wall were as dense as raindrops, and it seemed that all the archers were concentrated in this area, and the disadvantages of the intensive charge became apparent at this time.
Looks like a rainbow of momentum, but once it is hit, the losses are too great, and the fighting spirit of the brothers drops like a billowing snow.
Those brothers who were originally arranged to be substitutes to carry the wood were frightened by this **** massacre and ran back desperately. If they had not gritted their teeth and held a knife to block them, they would have been able to rush all the way. The supervising team from behind went to give away the heads.
Huang Bingyang himself knew that Modlen's team was not joking. He had agreed that if he could seize the goods first by breaking through the city, the premise was that he had to break through the city gates. He did not need to take care of other things, just break the city. Door, just this one credit is enough for me to take the lead.
You don't even need to rush in to break the city gate. The rest is left to the people from Modlen Boyan Village to take over. Huang Bingyang calculated that it is still a good deal. There is no moat and the distance is not far. With a gritted teeth, a dozen wood can be hit. If half of them rushed to the city gate, he would be sure to break it down. Even if he had to pay three to four hundred casualties for it, it would still be worth it.
Huang Bingyang also understood the situation of the Qingcaowu gang. Seven to eight hundred good bandits were worse than himself. Even if they annexed the people who waved the sky flag, so what?
According to the information obtained from the people who escaped from Waving the Sky Flag, their people were not convinced by that ugly guy Wang Er Mazi. In just a few days, he did not believe that Wang Er Mazi was so capable of letting the people who waved the Sky Flag Even he or Modlen didn't have the ability to obey him sincerely, let alone Wang Ermazi, that disgusting and ugly guy.
Who would have thought that this wave of arrow rain could be so ferocious? Huang Bingyang noticed that other attack areas were basically just sporadic arrow shots, and only his own attack area suffered such a blow.
Obviously the enemy regards his wood-ramming attack as the biggest threat, which is really self-defeating.
But at this time, Huang Bingyang also knew that it was not the time to bargain with Modlun. If he could not immediately restore some situations, he was afraid that his film would be marked with a cross by the ruthless Modlun. It might directly deprive him of his first victory after entering the city. Xie Laogen and Zhang Laoba were still watching eagerly.
With a vicious wave of his hand, Huang Bingyang roared: "Zhang Erleng, why are you still standing there, asking your people to replace Zhao Tiesuo's people? Huang Sanzi, your archers are vegetarians, why don't you let me go up and suppress the shooting? Hu De Ba, you, prepare your men for me. Once Huang Sanzi suppresses the officers and soldiers on the city wall, you will press Zhang Erleng’s men and rush up. Leave the city gate alone and your men will carry the ladders up!”
As a series of orders were issued, the nearly 2,000 members of the Old Yellow Sheep Department began to squirm like maggots in the toilet. Although several units could not form a complete formation, they still operated clumsily amidst the roars and curses of the Old Yellow Sheep. , reluctantly gathered together according to the order, and under the urging of the leaders behind them with the backs of swords and sticks, they swarmed towards the west gate.
The first to go into battle were the archers of Huang Sanzi, a direct descendant of the old Huangyang tribe. They climbed up to the specially reserved high ground. To be honest, neither Modlen nor Huang Bingyang could figure out how to stay on this high ground. This place a hundred steps away from the city gate happened to be the step for archers to suppress the city gate. Could it be that the officers and soldiers felt that they could better shoot at this place on the city wall from a high position? Do the officers and soldiers think that the archery skills of their archers can completely suppress their own side? But once they shoot, they will not be able to suppress the siege infantry, which is what their own side prefers to see.
This doubt was not revealed until the moment when Huang Sanzi's more than a hundred archers entered the ridge, and Zhang Erleng's tribe began to roar and charge fiercely with the help of the archers.
Three squatting tiger cannons were lined up in a row, and according to the distance that had been adjusted for the test firing, the three cannons fired in unison.
The first sweep directly hit the more than 100 archers of Huang Sanzi's team who had just had time to climb up the high ridge to prepare for formation. A third of the archers were swept away by this round of flying stones on the spot. Baby Fist-sized gravel was propelled by gunpowder power and roared through the air. Forty or fifty people fell to the ground on the spot during this sweep.
This kind of flying rocks are extremely powerful in sweeping, and the rebels like Lao Huangyang have almost no armor, and even if they did, it would be of no use at all.
After a round of flying rocks, the whole scene was full of broken heads, broken chests and abdomen, broken limbs and blood splatters. The scene was enough to make people vomit on the spot.
Everyone was stunned by this wave of flying rocks, and for a moment they didn't know what happened. The chaotic soldiers looked around at a loss, and some fell down on the spot. Some ran backwards, while others yelled and screamed.
Before they could react, the second round of flying rocks swept in again amidst the explosions. The archers of the rebel army who had not yet awakened from the first round of attacks were severely beaten again. Screams, howls, and cries could be heard all the time. , the entire high ridge ground was littered with corpses, and their broken limbs were like a Shura field.
Feng Ziying held up the telescope and looked at the scene in the mirror, and nodded with satisfaction. This group of test cannon workers was indeed powerful. Both cannons were fired extremely accurately, which completely eliminated the chaotic shooting of their own crossbowmen who intended to enter the high ground and the west gate wall. military archers, but this was not enough.
Under Feng Ziying's instructions, the artillery test workers methodically fine-tuned the muzzle and launched another round of artillery bombardment at the Hudeba tribe of the old yellow sheep who were waiting in formation around the highlands.
The results of this round of bombardment were even more powerful, because Hu Deba's troops were gathering to follow Zhang Erleng's troops to charge against the city wall. Almost all the personnel were crowded together, and one of them was hit on the spot by this volley. collapse.
The soldiers were in a mess and running backwards, crying and howling. No matter whether it was Old Huangyang himself leading his headquarters or the supervising team of Modlen Boyan Village behind, they could not stop the entire collapse and could only follow. Following the fleeing old Huangyang tribe, they retreated three miles back before they could stabilize their position.
The defeat of Lao Huangyang's tribe directly brought down the neighboring Xie Laogen's tribe.
It is a rebellious army without much military discipline, plus it is a coalition army formed by various departments. Naturally, there are not so many rules to speak of. If you run, I will run. I run faster than you, almost as fast as one or two sticks of incense. In a short time, the entire offensive launched on the west gate completely collapsed.
Looking at the rebel army receding like the sea water, Feng Ziying did not let the Yueshan Battalion leave the city to pursue them.
Firstly, the city gate was blocked and could not be opened even after a few attempts. Secondly, he did not think that the current over-mountain camp was capable of pursuit.
Modlen's troops in Boyan Village did not move, and even when they were dragged back by the old Huangyang tribe, they could basically maintain their formation. This made Feng Ziying, who was observing carefully on the city wall, have a high opinion of the troops in Boyan Village. A few points, based on this alone, there is still a considerable gap between the mountain crossing camp.
It should be said that this kind of rough and crude offensive and defensive battle looks much worse than the battles I have seen before, whether it is the attacking side or the defensive side.
The three tiger crouching cannons were able to exert such a huge effect, which Feng Ziying did not expect. This can only show that these rebels have never experienced such scenes. The formation was too dense and even the traps were set, and they were unprepared. Their mentality cost them a heavy price.
However, Feng Ziying also believes that these rebels will soon come to their senses, and the opponents in the next round of offensive and defensive battles will not be defeated so easily. Wooden shields, leather shields and even wooden baffles can effectively prevent the Tiger Crouching Cannon from exerting its power. Especially since the men and horses of Boyan Village have not really gone into battle yet, they will have to wait until then to truly measure their respective combat effectiveness.
Wang Wenyan also followed Feng Ziying and watched this scene, "Sir, the behavior of the rebel army is somewhat unexpected."
"Well, they who are used to winning in chaotic battles have to learn how to attack a city, especially in the face of a regular army defending the city. There is still a process. How long this process takes depends on their understanding and tenacity." Feng Ziying shook. Shaking his head, "Also, the rebel armies with real combat effectiveness, such as Boyan Village and Baitang Village, have not yet appeared. This outpost battle can only be regarded as a small setback. In fact, the mountain camp was replaced to attack the city and encountered this situation. , the results are similar.”
Wang Wenyan was speechless for a while before saying: "But after experiencing several wars, the Yueshan Camp will be able to grow."
"It's still early. This kind of battle formation is an encouragement to their morale, but it is difficult to improve their tenacity. For an army to grow, morale, determination, tenacity and endurance, military discipline, and fighting will are all indispensable. The Yueshan camp is still far away, I only hope to be able to defend Wubao City and maybe make them a semi-finished product." Feng Ziying commented.
