Chapter 209 Wuzhou's Tragedy (5) (1)
Chapter 209 The Sorrow of Wuzhou (Five) (1)
A soldier driving a chariot whipped his whip and drove the horses into the river, and even the chariots rolled down into the moat. These chariots were transformed by Zhao Dongting and were specially used to deal with the moat. The roof of the chariot was made of steel, and more than ten chariots rolled down into the river, and soon filled the moat in front of the city gate.
Yue Peng was still rushing in front, and he pushed the silver spear in his hand away and shot the arrows that were close to him, shouting loudly: "Enter the city! Enter the city!"
The soldiers who fell into the river with the chariots emerged from under the water, but before they could climb ashore, they were shot to death by the Yuan army's arrows.
Scarlet blood suddenly spread out in the muddy and dark yellow river water.
The guards who rushed to the front shone with silver scales, and followed Yue Peng into the city first. Under the horse's hooves, the horse's socks stepped on the steel plates of the chariot, making a jingle of gold and iron intersecting, densely packed, several cavalry lined up, and poured into Lipu County one after another.
Ali Hague kept shouting on the top of the city, "Kill! Kill me!"
The Yuan army's arrows, rolling stones, tincture oil, etc. were really coming to the city like heavy rain.
Even though the guards and horses were quite brave, the fish scale armor they wore was forged by Zhao Dongting's new smelting method. They had a strong defense, but they were also damaged a lot in front of the city. The fish scale armor could block the arrows, but could not block the rolling stones and tinder oil. Many soldiers were smashed to death and blood flowed out of their helmets. Some were ignited by tinder oil and were instantly wrapped in flames, making a tragic scream.
Inside the city gate was the Yuan army's swords and chariot, which ran across the entire city gate. The blade in front of the swords was more than two meters long, shining with a cold light. Behind were neat shield soldiers, layered and several meters long. Then, there were dense archers, constantly slacking arrows out of the city.
Even with Yue Peng's skills, he was not able to push all the arrows away. Two arrow feathers were inserted into his chest, and he was still trembling.
The fish scale armor was extremely tough, and its smelting technology was far superior to that of the Yuan army's arrows. Therefore, these two arrows were very shallow, otherwise Zhao Dongting would have been afraid of losing the general.
A guard and horse army rushed to the front of the knife chariot formation, and even the people and horses were penetrated by the blades, and blood was splattered everywhere.
"ah……"
Yue Peng yelled, and went to the [ www.biqugeso.info] knife chariot formation and suddenly lifted the reins.
The war horse under his seat jumped up suddenly, and actually jumped over the knife carriage with four blades inserted into it and nearly one and a half meters high.
This is simply not a knife trolley, it doesn’t matter if it’s a knife wall.
However, although Yue Peng's war horse crossed the front line of the knife chariot, it was inevitable that it would be penetrated by the second line of the knife chariot.
The horse didn't even have time to neigh. After being penetrated by several blades, it was immediately killed, with only the corners of his eyes as if tears were falling.
Who says animals are not psychic?
The war horses and soldiers in the army were born and died, and there was always some indescribable response between them.
Yue Peng knew that his love horse could not be spared, and his eyes were red. At the moment when the war horse was penetrated by the blade, he stomped his legs on the stirrups, and he floated up and pushed away the arrows in front of him. Then his feet had just landed on the upper edge of the knife cart. The silver spear swept the throats of the two Yuanjuns holding the handlebars, and stepped on the knife cart and rushed to the back of the shield soldiers.
"Kill!"
The guards and horse soldiers were not as good as him, but they could only use their war horses to resist the Yuan army's sword chariot and drove the horse straight into the sword chariot.
In just less than two minutes, dozens of war horses fell down in front of the knife chariot formation.
Those blades were inserted into the bodies of these war horses and could no longer form lethality.
This is a bloody scene that is hard to imagine.
Behind them, endless cavalry rushed into the city. They stepped on horse corpses and human corpses rushed in, and even the alive soldiers were killed.
Attacking the city is the best. Not to mention ordinary soldiers at this time, even if Yue Peng is lying on the ground, he will probably have to die by the army.
In this case, no one cares about anyone. Every soldier is thinking about entering the city, because those who break the city first will have a heavy reward. Moreover, the Yuan army is still constantly shooting arrows and rolling stones on the top of the city. If they don’t enter the city, they are likely to die.
The Yuan army's sword formation failed to last for two minutes and was defeated by the Song army's cavalry.
"gun!"
The Yuan general who commanded the shield soldiers behind him looked ugly and shouted loudly.
From the gaps between the shields, countless sharp spears immediately penetrated.
The soldiers on both sides were full of murderous aura.
Yue Peng had just rushed through the sword and chariot formation and was surrounded. He wanted to kill the shield soldiers but was in a dilemma. He was covered in general armor and was greeted by the Yuan army.
Ali Hague is worthy of being the marshal. The city gates are so tightly arranged, and all the troops are very well-organized.
Just then, many soldiers rushed through the knife chariot array and rushed down from the corpse and the slopes piled up by the knife chariots.
"Hey!"
Yue Peng exhaled and took a few steps back, grabbed a saddle with flowing water, and turned over the horse.
In the following moment, several cavalry rushed straight in front of the shield formation.
The war horse neighed and was stabbed through by a spear.
The soldiers in front of Yue Peng fell off their front hooves and rolled down, and were also penetrated by a spear.
"Little plum!"
Yue Peng shouted with red eyes and flew into the shield formation.
This horse soldier joined the army in Benzhou. He was only sixteen years old at that time. Because of his burly figure and strength, he was screened by Yue Peng into the guards' personal army. At that time, there were very few guards' personal army, and this kid was smart, so Yue Peng still had a lot of impressions of him.
Now, he is less than eighteen years old and died here in battle.
Even with Yue Peng's iron blood, his heart couldn't help but feel a little twitching and pain.
The cavalry marching at an extremely fast speed and is not convenient to carry siege equipment. This is their weakness. When encountering such obstacles, they can only force breakthroughs with their flesh and blood.
It can be said that every inch of the way into the city is stacked with the corpses of the soldiers.
If it weren't for such a blitzkrieg that breaks the city gate first, unless the commander is a fool, he would never send cavalry to attack the city first. Because if he uses infantry, he can push forward with siege chariots, siege hammers and other siege equipment. When encountering a knife chariot array, the shield array will never be so helpless.
However, the infantry speed is slow and the speed of breaking the city is slow, so you will definitely suffer greater losses outside the city.
Zhao Dongting asked the cavalry to attack the city because he wanted to break the city as fast as possible.
Just take the head of the city and the army will walk on flat ground and no longer have any threats.
Yue Peng roared, and the silver spear danced wildly, and each person shot, first raging in the Yuan army's shield formation.
The Yue family's shooting skills are very open and close, but it is the most suitable for such a battlefield fighting.
The shield soldiers in the front row of the Yuan army were a little panicked.
Then, before they could kill Yue Peng, the Song army guards and horses rushed to the front of the formation like a tide.
The total gate of Lipu County was only a few meters wide. The cavalry rushed in together and defeated the shield formation with its powerful impact.
