"Everything about Sama and Zha is left to you!" Zhong Yao stood on the general stage, holding a wine bowl and said, "If I defeat your previous anger, you can vent your previous anger. If you lose, I will Just give them Samadhi as compensation, so drink this glass of wine and go win the victory!"
"Do it!" Zhong Yao raised the wine bowl loudly, and all the soldiers also shouted, picked up the wine bowl, drank it all in one gulp, and then started to leave the city according to the previous plan under the leadership of their respective centurions.
As soon as midnight passed, the North City Gate, which had been closed for a whole day, slowly opened. The first thousand-man team was led by the centurion who was nearly fifty years old. All the soldiers in the front row were They were using the weapons of the shield guards, and the soldiers in the back row were holding arrows secretly, waiting at any time to shoot down any opponents who might appear. At the same time, there were three thousand soldiers in the east and west gates each slowly attacking.
"There are people two hundred meters ahead." The Han soldiers, whose boots were wrapped in linen and whose footsteps were lowered, soon saw the secret sentry of Guishang's scouts patrolling outside the camp.
For the vast majority of legions, even if there is no blindness at night, it is impossible to detect the enemy hundreds of meters away. However, the vast majority of legions definitely do not include Danyang. After Danyang's organizational strength has been strengthened, the first army derived from joint efforts The first effect is vision sharing.
Therefore, during the day, there is no possibility of a sneak attack by troops like Danyang. At night, due to the problem of human vision, the full viewing angle is weakened, but it is still far stronger than the observation range of most legions. Therefore, two hundred meters away, Danyang relied on the perspective of a group of people and discovered a living creature that looked to be the size of several people and was still moving.
"Kill it." The leading centurion made a gesture. Dozens of elite archers took out special black arrows. With the vision of a group of people, they aimed at the opposite neck. They passed by in a wave and took them all away. Then Everyone keeps pushing forward.
It was more than two hundred meters away. At this time, the burning braziers outside the Kushan camp had illuminated a large area. Moreover, as Zhong Yao had estimated, Kushan was also on guard against this move. In addition to the bright whistles standing around each brazier, and patrol personnel, as well as hidden sentries hiding in the blind spots of frontal attacks.
"Kill by force. Don't go through the main entrance. Prepare the mallet. Break the camp wall and go through. I will take the lead and you will follow." The old centurion, who looked to be almost fifty years old, had worked with Gan Ning for a while before. He has a psychological shadow about taking the main entrance, and he also feels that taking the route arranged by the other party is definitely not as safe as opening up his own path.
After trying hard to lurk to a position of two hundred meters, the old centurion made a move. All the Danyang soldiers roared and launched a charge. Hundreds of powerful arrows directly swept across the front. In the next moment, Kushan's camp wall A sharp whistle sounded.
Thirty seconds later, the Danyang veterans holding wooden mallets lined up in a row at the front, and then fiercely bombarded the camp wall with completely coordinated movements. In an instant, the camp wall that Kushan had just built in the afternoon was A passage was collapsed for the Han army to rush through.
"Shield soldiers in front, Danyang regular arrows, quick fire!" The old centurion knew he had won the prize with just one glance. Guishan was indeed prepared. There were actually archers arranged inside the camp wall. Although the scale was small, there were only There are more than a thousand people, but if they take the main entrance, these thousand people may cause more trouble than the thousands of people fighting in close combat.
But now, taking advantage of the chaos to break the formation, Guishuang's archers have no time to change directions and shoot based on feeling. Let alone a legion formed by ordinary elite archers, even Danyang Changshui, who is an established official, cannot shoot in a hurry. A dense rain of arrows.
As for the arrow rain, only when the quantity is in place can the opponent be killed when the opponent is piercing the armor. Otherwise, the small-scale arrows will not do much damage at all.
After all, not any legion can be like Danyang in that it can maintain its due organizational strength no matter what the harsh environment.
The scattered and ineffective arrow rain strikes of a thousand archers and the rapid-fire arrows of 500 Danyang were separated in a very short time. The archers prepared by Guishang were instantly scattered, and the surrounding sword and shield soldiers were used to protect them. The spearmen and spearmen had no time to show off, and their own archers dispersed.
"Charge! Crush them!" A wave of arrows crushed the opponent's archers. The Danyang veteran picked up his weapon and roared forward. The three short spears on his back approached the spearmen ten steps and mobilized his comrades around him. With the strength, he ran away and threw it out.
This combat method, which does not preserve any physical strength, worked in a short period of time. Danyang elite soldiers directly demonstrated that they have no shortcomings in long-range, medium-range, and melee combat. In addition, relying on the talent of collaboration, without counting the endurance, , ultra-high explosive limit.
For a moment, the Kushan Army, which had been well prepared, seemed to be attacked by multiple dual-talented troops. Even if the dual-talented army was small in size, the psychological pressure it caused to the Kushan Army was far greater than that of a single army.
"What, the Han army sent people who are good at long-range and melee combat to attack us, and the melee combat is directly their elite shield guards?" After hearing the report from the front line, Chenas from the Kushan camp was stunned for a moment, and then directly rejected it. This possibility.
"Impossible. The Han army in Samajia is limited in strength. It is impossible to have so many elite soldiers. As for the shield guards, some may be left as guards, but the scale cannot be too large. Order the legions using Gu Duo and flails. ." After Chenas made his judgment, he decisively dispatched the elite army to the front camp to stop the attack, just as Zhong Yao expected.
"General, the front camp's side battle line has collapsed. The sword and shield men prepared by our army have been on top. The archer legion has been defeated. The captain of thousands died in the battle. We are no longer able to prevent the counterattack." After Chenas's order was passed on, another The messenger rushed over urgently.
"The archer battle line on the side collapsed. What was the reason for the collapse? How many enemy troops there were." Chenas asked as calmly as possible. The rapid collapse of the battle line was also very stressful for Chenas. After all, This was a pocket formation that he specially constructed to defend against the Han army's sneak attack. Now the Han army's sneak attack had begun, but the intensity was far beyond their expectations.
"The archers and the opponent were completely defeated in a hail of arrows. The exact strength of the Han army cannot be determined at present, but the front camp has begun a bloody battle." The messenger reported loudly.
Just as Zhong Yao estimated, it was a fool's errand. Even if someone wanted to count the number of attackers of the Han army, it was impossible to judge. Moreover, even if experienced veterans judged that the strength of the Han army was not large, the Han army was now The destructive power of the army is there, and the veterans of Kushan dare not express their judgment.
Besides, it’s still a big question whether there are such veteran Kushans! After all, Kushan was not a powerful empire like the Han Dynasty, which had complete first aid methods and complete armor. Even if the mortality rate of soldiers was imitated by the Han Dynasty and improved first aid, it would not be possible to decrease in a short time.
Besides, even if the mortality rate is reduced, it is unlikely that the kind of old scouts who can distinguish the size of the opponent by feeling and footsteps will be born in a short time. This skill seems simple, but it can only be practiced after walking around the battlefield for several times. !
Therefore, Kushan can only roughly judge the scale based on the battle lines of both sides at this time, and the gap between the scale derived in this way and the actual scale is probably several times.
"Could it be that the Han army came out in full force?" Chenas was stunned for a moment, and then he felt that it was not impossible. After all, the Han Dynasty often did amazing things, and the Han army had always been several times larger than the Kushan army. They fought and won many victories, so if the city guard was more confident, it would not be impossible for him to issue such an order to attack.
After all, as long as you can push your opponent into the ground on the battlefield, it's really not a big problem.
"Take out the sun god prepared in the camp." Chenas was also a decisive person. After thinking for a moment, he decisively issued the order, "Order the guards to prepare for a strong attack."
However, at this moment, a wave of arrows with a sharp whistling sound erupted from the west of the Kushan camp. This was a special type of loud arrow made by the Han army. This time it was brought here just to scare people. The super-speed continuous fire of Danyang elite soldiers, The soldiers in the entire Kushan camp heard the roar of thousands of arrows, and the powerful armor-piercing arrows also penetrated the western camp in an instant.
"Everyone, follow me to kill!" The centurion on horseback picked up the heavy sword and shouted loudly, while Danyang Qingzhuang behind him, who was already full of energy, also roared and launched a charge.
These young people may not be able to handle the kind of iron-blooded war that is like a meat grinder, but as long as the momentum is enough and the impact is strong enough, it can become a smooth battle. These young people are definitely more comfortable in fighting than the veterans.
"Kill!" Thousands of angry Danyang Qingzhuang picked up their weapons and roared into the Kushan camp. The saying that newborn calves are not afraid of tigers is talking about these people, and this kind of roaring sound is almost like a tiger's roar. The sound of strong murderous intent and anger made the Kushan soldiers who were already panicking because of the crushing of the side camp even more panicked.
At this time, the same cry of killing came from the east side, and the flames quickly burned with the tung oil bags thrown by Zheng Bao and others.
At the top of the city of Samajizha, Zhong Yao looked at the fire that suddenly rose and expanded in the distance. He decisively mobilized his mental power and encouraged the natural strong wind. With the blessing of tung oil and strong wind, the flames expanded rapidly and directly It spread towards the middle camp and soon burned to the place where Zhong Yao estimated that the siege weapons were made, and the flames became more powerful.
Seeing this, Zheng Bao, Xu Qian, and Zhang Duo all roared and rushed towards the middle camp, while Chenas vigorously directed his guards to block it, and tried to make the soldiers of the front camp retreat as much as possible. But at this time, panic has emerged and chaos has formed. What's more, the dazzling fire is announcing to the aristocratic families in Jiangnan that it's your turn to take prisoners!
