"Brave noble warriors, you are the strongest warriors in this land, pierce the Han army's armor with the spears in your hands,
Use your long swords to cut through their shields. God above will grant you unlimited power and send these invaders to hell! "
"Ouch ouch ouch~~"
The 30,000 noble infantrymen let out a deafening roar, raised all kinds of weapons in their hands, and their faces were full of fanaticism.
In the Han army's formation, Wang He observed carefully with a looking glass and couldn't help but shake his head: "Although there are many troops in the army, their weapons and armor are complicated and unnecessary, and there is no discipline at all. I guess they must be young and strong men who were summoned temporarily. They have nothing but empty words." Except for blood and bravery, he is useless."
Then he waved.
"Change!"
"Drink~~"
Wei Wuzu immediately started a change of formation. The shield bearers and spearmen who were at the forefront immediately retreated to the middle army in an orderly manner to recover their strength, and their original positions were replaced by their comrades behind them.
When the first drum beat fell, the formation change was completed, and it was still the creepy turtle formation.
Dong Xuan's artillery battalion on the left has also adjusted its gun positions and loaded ammunition in advance...
"Kill~~"
"Ouch~~"
The sound of the 30,000 noble infantrymen shook the air, as if it could condense the air.
Nan Zhuang nodded, very satisfied with the performance of these infantry, and the previous setbacks caused by the cavalry were instantly forgotten.
"Thirty thousand people can't beat ten thousand, let me see how you win!"
An inexplicable sense of superiority arose spontaneously from the soles of Nanzhen's feet.
…
"Five hundred steps!"
The position of the Han army's artillery camp, the range finder accurately reported the distance between the enemy's troops and our own army's formation.
Dong Xuan had a sullen face and said nothing.
"General, it's 450 steps and we have entered the optimal range of artillery. Please fire!"
Looking at the densely packed and huddled infantry of the noble widow, Dong Xuan finally nodded silently.
"put!"
"Boom~~"
A ball of dazzling flames erupted from the muzzle, and then, gunpowder smoke filled the air, and thirteen hot two-pound lead bullets, dragging a long black curtain, roared away from the noble army.
Dong Xuan clearly saw a cannonball falling into the crowd through the looking glass, and a series of blood mist immediately rose up.
And has the noble widow ever seen such a sharp weapon that transcends the times? He was instantly stunned.
A group of noble soldiers gathered together and were still howling fiercely, but the next moment the leader of the soldiers suddenly felt something hit his chest, and then there was a sound of grinding meat in his ears.
Looking back, he saw that his team was all lying in a pool of blood. Many of them were still alive, and they were wailing in a way that was not like a human voice.
And when he reacted, he looked towards his chest indifferently and immediately screamed too.
It turned out that his chest was directly penetrated by a lead bullet. Because everything happened so fast, he did not react for a while.
On the other side, a noble soldier holding a short spear of about 1.5 meters was directly hit in the knee by a ricochet that landed on the ground.
In an instant, his left leg was forcibly separated from the body, revealing the broken bones and bones. He was in agony and regretted being born in this world.
There was also a soldier whose head was smashed directly by a lead bullet that fell in mid-air, but his strong vitality did not collapse with the disappearance of his head. Miraculously, the headless body still held the scimitar high and walked forward for more than ten steps. After a fountain of blood spurted out, he finally completed his mission.
"put!"
"Boom~~"
After one round of shelling, Dong Xuan decisively ordered a second salvo. Immediately, another thirteen shells roared out, and a large amount of blood mist rose again among the noble army.
Dong Xuan was very satisfied with the effects of these two rounds of shooting. His only regret was that the number of artillery pieces was still too small.
And Nan Zhen was dumbfounded by this.
"What on earth is this? How can it shoot so far? It's much farther than Dashi's catapult. How did these Han people create such a terrifying thing?"
For a moment, Nanzhuan's forehead was covered with cold sweat, and his sixth sense told him that this war might not be as simple as he thought.
But soon, this idea was forgotten by him.
He has more than 600,000 troops, how could he lose? The Han army only has such a small number of people, even if they are crushed, they will still be defeated!
When the third round of artillery firing ended, Dong Xuan stopped shooting because the Guiwi army was less than 200 steps away from the Han infantry phalanx. At this distance and angle, it was very likely to accidentally injure friendly troops.
In addition, the artillery also needs to dissipate heat, so the artillery support has to be suspended.
The rest was left to those Wei soldiers. He had dealt the greatest blow to the morale of the noble widow army.
In the three rounds of shelling, not many soldiers were actually killed or injured, but as Dong Xuan said, the main purpose was to attack morale and spirit.
These noble soldiers were obviously shaken by the shelling just now. Although their faces were still fanatical, their eyes were obviously full of fear, for fear that the terrifying shelling would strike again.
However, they will soon understand that they may be luckier to die under shelling.
"The whole army is ready!"
"Drink~~"
"attack!"
"mighty!"
The two sides met a hundred steps apart, and the Han army's formation, which was originally as stable as a mountain, actually took the lead in moving.
"If you advance, never retreat!"
"Kill~~"
The sound of killing shook the sky, and the sound of uniform footsteps on the dry land gave people a huge sensory impact.
"Fire the arrow!"
Sixty steps away, an officer in the Guiwi Army directly ordered the running archers to launch their throws.
Suddenly, the panting archer immediately threw a shower of arrows into the air.
However, in the face of the attack of arrows by the Guiwi Army, the advancing Han infantry showed no signs of stopping at all, and still steadily and slowly pushed towards the roaring Guiwi Army.
"Ding ding ding~~"
A rain of arrows fell into the Han army's formation, and the moment the arrowheads collided with the armor, there was a harsh sound of striking iron.
Excellent iron armor completely ignored the offensive of arrows and crossbows. In fact, when the Han army popularized fine iron armor on a large scale, ordinary individual arrows and crossbows could no longer pose any threat to them.
"The Han army is mighty!"
"The Han army is mighty!"
"The Han army is mighty!"
More than 7,000 Wei warriors were majestic, like a forest of spears swinging orderly under the sky.
"Kill~~"
Finally, the two armies intertwined for a moment, and the fierce collision of iron and blood officially began.
"No, don't~"
A noble soldier who was rushing to the front couldn't help but feel frightened when he saw the military formation in front of him, especially the spears as cold as the forest. He was about to slow down, but was pushed by his companion behind him.
With this push, he directly hit a spear. In his life-threatening roar, he watched the five-meter spear squeeze into his body bit by bit, and finally came out directly from his body.
"Drink~"
A noble soldier yelled, avoided the surrounding spears, and came directly to the shield. Without saying a word, he picked up the short knife with two missing horns in his hand and fired wildly at the hard shield.
However, even the cavalry could not defeat the shield, how could it be defeated by this humble force?
The noble soldier slashed seven or eight times in a row, and just when he was about to make another cut, the shield suddenly rushed forward and hit him directly in the face.
The noble soldier spat out a mouthful of blood and backed away. The moment he retreated, a spear from both sides stabbed at him at the same time.
"No, wait~"
"Puff, puff~"
What responded to him was the ruthless edge, the echo that penetrated his body...
