Chapter 362 fierce battle
The enemy's halberdiers rushed in swarm! However, the front flanks of the official army were guarded by integrated beryllium soldiers and sword and shield soldiers.
The beryllium soldiers were the former halberdier soldiers, and later they were equipped with crossbows. At first, they used crossbows to shoot in the front, but now the front is maintained by spearmen, and the beryllium soldiers have come to the flanks.
Some of the sword and shield soldiers were at the front at first, but now they are all on the two wings.
Dongfangzhi is the captain of the sword and shield troops in the front. Their unit belongs to the left school of the Zhongba camp. After dispatching troops from Luoyang, they have been marching under the leadership of General Wei Qin Liang. However, General Wei is the commander-in-chief of the three armies in this battle;
On the battlefield, according to the original organizational structure, everyone actually belonged to the subordinates of General Yang Wei.
"Flying spear...throw!" came a loud roar from the general on the front left wing. The enemy soldiers were already approaching! Dongfang Zhi and others did not dare to hesitate, and immediately picked up the shuttle gun in their right hand and threw it forward!
Many of the enemy soldiers who rushed over were shot and screamed.
However, flying guns alone could not stop the enemy's charge. The enemy left their dead and wounded behind and continued to rush in, shouting wildly, and the shouts of killing were deafening.
The beryllium soldiers behind the shield soldiers shouted in unison: "Kill!" A group of people carried beryllium, passed the shield soldiers, and charged back towards the enemy.
Suddenly there was a dull crash, the crisp sound of metal collision, and loud screams. You could even see sparks flying and blood flying in the crowd. People were going crazy. Maybe everyone was scared and just wanted to show their fear.
Use force to scare the opponent away.
Dongfangzhi and others also rushed forward, and saw a group of halberdiers coming towards them. Dongfangzhi stabilized his feet, turned slightly sideways, raised his wooden shield to protect the middle, raised his knife above the shield, and stared at his front.
position, do not retreat but advance.
Dozens of kilograms of armor hang on the body, which can be carried with all the strength of the body. The most strenuous thing on the body is the wooden shield. It weighs at least several kilograms, much heavier than the Huanshou Sword. It depends entirely on the strength of the arms to lift the shield.
In an instant, the enemy soldiers on the opposite side were approaching. After the man stood still, he waved his halberd and hit him from above. "Bang!" Dongfang Zhi blocked it with his shield, and immediately yelled "fuck" and moved forward.
Rush! Dongzhi has quite a lot of fighting experience and is very strong. This is why he was promoted from an ordinary soldier to a captain. Although the sword and shield soldier has an extra shield for protection, he is not a soldier who is good at defense in close combat.
, instead, you must actively attack, otherwise you will definitely die! Because at long distances, you can't reach the opponent at all. If you don't attack, you will be beaten passively. The shield can't protect the whole body. Either the legs will be chopped off, or the flaw in the body will be exposed and hit by wormwood.
At this time, the brothers around Dongfang Zhi also rushed forward, each dealing with an enemy soldier.
The enemy soldiers in front of Dongfangzhi seemed to be very experienced. Once the distance was close, the enemy soldiers' halberds could no longer hit Dongfangzhi, but the enemy soldiers did not panic and continued to run forward.
At this moment, if Dongfangzhi had not reacted in time, he would have probably overshot and been counterattacked by the enemy soldier from behind. Dongfangzhi stopped his steps and briefly pressed the opponent's two-handed halberd with his shield. When the distance was not too far or too close,
Dongfang Zhi immediately slashed at the other person with the raised knife. With a "clang" sound, he hit the man's basin collar, but the blade still scratched the man's face, and he heard a painful cry of "ah".
Taking advantage of the enemy's injury and hesitation, Dongfangzhi pushed forward with his wooden shield and hit the opponent's face with the shield. At the same time, he twisted his upper body, flexibly switched to attack with his right hand, and struck the man with all his strength with one knife.
After being hit several times, the whole person lost the ability to move. Dongfang Zhi rushed up and stabbed the man in the abdomen quickly and repeatedly. After screaming a few times, the man finally fell to his knees.
"Okay!" A shout came from behind. Dongfang Zhi thought it was a compliment from the general at the top and quickly looked back.
Unexpectedly, it was just a shout from a spearman in the formation, who was looking at Dongfang Zhi with admiration. Dongfang Zhi was slightly disappointed, but he nodded and immediately returned his attention to the front of the formation.
Most of those array spearmen were from Lujiang Soldiers, so they don't need much martial arts at all. As long as they are in good health, because the super long spears are indeed quite heavy, and they are not afraid of death, and they are skilled in formation, in terms of close combat skills and experience
, indeed not as good as veterans of the Chinese and foreign armies.
The battle lines of the two armies on the left wing were already intertwined, and everyone was roaring and fighting hard. Not far away, they were repelled a few steps, and an officer and soldier was knocked to the ground. Before he could retreat with the line, he fell into a group of soldiers.
The enemy's siege was overthrown to the ground. Countless enemy soldiers stabbed the ground with their halberds, as if they were angry. The officers and soldiers were so miserable that they bloodyed the surrounding enemy soldiers.
After fighting for a long time, the friendly cavalry from the rear left direction finally dispatched!
The enemy's heavy infantry failed to defeat the sword and shield soldiers and beryllium soldiers in the front. Seeing this, they also retreated one after another amid shouts.
The men and horses on both sides have a lot of depth, and many people behind them have no chance to engage in close combat with each other, but people have to follow the group to advance and retreat. Sometimes they rush to kill, and sometimes they retreat, running back and forth with armor weapons weighing dozens of kilograms. Fighting.
On the battlefield, the most important test for soldiers is their physical strength. If your body is weak, you will not be able to bear it. If you are not defeated by the enemy, you will collapse on your own.
The official cavalry came to the front flank, but did not continue the pursuit. Instead, there was a sound of horns from the rear, and everyone in the front was ready to retreat in steps.
Dongfang Zhi looked around the crowd and saw nothing. He only saw iron armor everywhere, like a forest of swords, guns, shields and halberds.
At this time, the voice of a hundred-man general said: "Our team will go first, and we will line up at the back!"
With the military order from the top, Dongfang Zhi and others turned around and left, following the banner of the Hundred General to retreat to the southwest. Only then did the Hundred General say: "The bandit army has brought in more cavalry. We have just experienced a fight and cannot stop them."
Stay and let the brothers on the left and right come up."
Having said that, the soldiers generally had an idea. It seemed that their side had won the battle just now?
Previously on the front, the spearmen had defeated an enemy formation anyway. Later Dongfangzhi and others were attacked by the enemy's heavy infantry, and they did not get any advantage at all. Then the enemy retreated under the threat of cavalry. Back and forth.
It's just a confusing account.
The outcome was not obvious, but even a corps leader like Dongfang Zhi vaguely felt that his side had taken advantage. After all, one of the opponent's phalanxes collapsed, and the few groups of halberdiers who launched the charge were gone for a while.
Fa Zai continued fighting.
