.The arrow body made of hardwood, the sharp blade forged by fine steel, and the huge crossbow arrows are more like iron spears than magnified bows and arrows.

As the ten thousand tyrant commander of the Teutonic heavy infantry regiment raised his hand and fell down, the tight beef tendon bowstrings bounced forward, and the huge crossbow arrows swept across the river with a whistling sound and shot towards the shore.

The Han soldiers and Teutonic soldiers who were entangled and killed each other had no time to react and were penetrated by huge crossbow arrows.

The heavy iron armor and the exquisite bamboo armor became as fragile as paper under this absolute power.

The body was penetrated with a huge blood hole, and the whole person was immediately sank to the ground, which was a terrible sight.

The bed crossbow made by the empire can fire up to three crossbow arrows at a time. After one round of attack, five bed crossbows and fifteen crossbow arrows caused more than 200 Han soldiers gathered on the shore to be killed or injured.

Then, the second round of arrow rains came again, but this time it was a crossbow, which was obtained by the Western Allied Forces in the ordnance factory in Zhongdu Longyang, and it can be produced.

The cavalry and shooting of hundreds of crossbows made the casualties of the Han soldiers on the shore even more severe.

Occasionally, the screams of the Han soldiers were mixed with a few curses from the Teutonic soldiers. It was the resentment of the death and injury of the rain of arrows on their bodies.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, the ships on the river quickly moved closer to the river bank. Soon, thousands of Western coalition soldiers had already jumped onto the shore on the leading ships.

Almost all the Han soldiers on the shore were injured, but they were still fighting with the enemy to death.

At this moment, the situation has become three or four Western coalition soldiers, besieging and killing a Han soldier from the Fenwu Army.

One, two, three, more and more Han soldiers fell under the broad sword of the Western coalition.

When a Han soldier slashed into his body with his broad sword, his body rushed forward and threw the enemy in front of him under him. The helmets of the Western Alliance soldiers were thrown off.

The Han soldier opened his mouth and bit the soldier's neck, and warm blood poured into his body.

But the next moment, a few spears and broadswords pierced into his back.

The soldier suddenly raised his mouth, mouthing the enemy's flesh and blood, and said with a shrill voice: "Kill the enemy!"

"Ah--" Sima Nan on the dike platform only felt a stream of passion rushing to his head, his eyes wide open, and his teeth were chewing.

"Sir, send troops to save those brothers!" A Han army battalion commander looked as if the robes were almost massacred, so he asked in a crying voice.

"No! Order the entire army to shrink the defense, and do not attack without my orders!" Sima Nan's face turned blue and his body shook a few times.

He knew that if he sent troops up at this time, he would have no chance of winning.

"General, take care of yourself!" The soldiers beside him hurriedly supported Sima Nan.

"Tell me the order!" Sima Nan's voice was like a night owl, hoarse and intense.

"Here!" Several Han soldiers looked at the one-sided massacre on the river bank, unwilling to say goodbye.

"This revenge must be avenged!" Sima Nan held the saber in his hand tightly with both hands. At this moment, a trace of blood was flowing from his mouth. At the moment, he had already bitten a few of his teeth.

~~~~~~~~

Time returned to March 28, 999, the Empire's era was Dasan Pass, Sichuan-Yu Road, Sichuan-Yu Road, the Empire's Sichuan-Shaanxi Province.

"Western people are cruel and invaded our country. Although they have not reached the middle of the river, they are like tigers and wolfs peeking at them. Their hearts are punished. If we are numb today, our wives, children, parents and villagers will all be slaves of the Westerners tomorrow. This time we leave Sichuan, it is a great righteousness and a family behind you! Anyone who goes out with the army will be given a subsidy of 100 imperial gold coins; every one who dies due to war will be given a compensation of 500 gold coins; every one who is disabled due to war will be responsible for supporting us until old age." Zhang Ce, dressed in white, stood on the temporary platform outside Dasan Pass, raising his arms and shouting.

Below the stage, outside the temporary awning, this large banner, which was more than ten feet high, was erected with four big words "Get out of Sichuan to fight the enemy".

As soon as Lei Dongfeng and others returned to Dasan Pass, they had all their control when talking about Chengdu. After obtaining information through Mu Yu, most of the Central and Southern Provinces had fallen, and Zhongdu Longyang was already in the hands of the enemy. Now the enemy is stepping up their besiege of Tongguan, and Chang'an Prefecture is about to be lost. If they are not rescued, they will allow the enemy to occupy Chang'an, and the gateway in central Sichuan will be opened, and the first thing they will be to be the Dasan Pass entering Sichuan.

Therefore, no matter from which aspect, it is imperative to go out to Sichuan to fight the enemy.

Lei Dongfeng's opinion was unanimously supported by Jiang Zhuying and others. Only Li Ruoxi felt that the preparations for this battle were not sufficient and was not the best time, but he did not say anything to disturb him.

Zhang Ce even returned from Chengdu Prefecture two days in advance to be responsible for the recruitment matters. At this moment, it was the last day of recruitment.

In this way, in the spring of the empire in 999, Dasanguan recruited soldiers, and the Han family vowed to fight against the enemy, which was heavily written into historical books.

"At that time, there were only tens of thousands of people following the adults. Although there were generals on their side, their strength was still weak. However, the adults were devoted to the country and regardless of their safety, they resolutely decided to go out to Sichuan to fight against the enemy, turn the tide, and fight against Tongguan, and the Han family was stained with blood on the battlefield!"

~~~~~~~~

Although it is not conducive to farming in the middle of Sichuan, the population is more prosperous than that inland. Taking Dasan Pass as an example, it is less than ten miles in a radius. In addition to the main passes built along the mountain, there are more than 4,000 households and a population of nearly 30,000 within ten miles within the pass.

Outside the checkpoint, there are no less than tens of thousands of people living under Dasanguan. If you include the nearby mountain people and indigenous people, there are about nearly 300,000 people living in the territory under Dasanguan.

Moreover, most of these people are young and strong, living in the mountains and forests all year round, strong in body and skillful in swords and bows.

But even so, after three days of emergency recruitment, the number of people recruited was beyond the expectations of Lei Dongfeng and others. In just three days, no less than 100,000 people rushed into Dasan Pass.

Many people sent the only male in their family to the recruiting place, but they did not want the hundred settling expenses, and said explicitly: "Fighting against foreign enemies is the duty of the people. If this gold is cast as much as a knife and a gun, then kill another Western barbarian!"

Lei Dongfeng shed tears on the spot several times.

Finally, Lei Dongfeng and others selected 30,000 people from the tens of thousands of young and strong men who were recruited. Among these 30,000 people, 20,000 were nominally the Xuanwu Army.

After all, after the battle in Chengdu Prefecture, the vacancies of the Xuanwu Army were already very serious.

Of course, the final military status of these soldiers was still in the Independent Brigade, and now Lei Dongfeng has expanded it into an Independent Legion.

As for where the Imperial Capital Army feels, it is not something Lei Dongfeng can control now.

One general succeeded and had thousands of bones blew. When he defeated the Westerners and saved the danger of Tongguan, even if the great masters of the military headquarters were dissatisfied, he had to consider the public opinion reactions across the country.

The empire's wisdom has begun for a thousand years, and everyone in the hearts of the four people has a reputation. No matter how powerful the military headquarters is, they dare not be enemies of public opinion!
