Countless light arrows rose from Houjin Camp on the south bank, and the birch arrow shafts that accumulated kinetic energy twisted in the air like snakes.
Amidst the continuous vibrating sound of bowstrings, tens of thousands of arrow feathers resemble small black snakes, chasing each other as they climb into the sky above the Hun River.
Thousands of small snakes continued to gather together, and soon they formed a huge black demonic dragon on the surface of the Hun River.
The giant dragon's tail stopped on the south bank, and its body was already roaring towards Kaiyuan's army on the north bank.
At the tail of the demon dragon, 12,000 archers drawn from the four flags of Zhenglan Banner, Zhenghuang Banner, Xianghuang Banner, and Xiangbai Banner formed a dense battle formation on the shore, using rifle bows to shoot light arrows at the Ming army on the north bank. .
After tens of thousands of soldiers, the Jin soldiers quickly shot more than 100,000 light arrows. The black demonic dragon covered the sky and swallowed up the sky on the north bank. The mere 6,000 Ming troops led by Liu Zhaosun were instantly drowned in the dense cluster of arrows.
"Hahaha! I have been working hard for twenty years just for today! You are just trying to recruit a grandson with a mantis' arm like a chariot. This is your fate!"
Behind the archers of Houjin, on the urn in the north of the city, the gold-woven dragon banner of the Great Khan of Houjin was erected high. Nurhachi sat where his son was killed in the bombing, looking at the Kaiyuan General Military Order Flag standing tall under the rain of arrows on the north bank. , a cruel smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
Since all the artillery in Shenyang City was sent to the north bank by the Great Khan to attack the white pole soldiers' shield formation, they finally fell into the hands of the thief Liu Zhaosun.
Coupled with the fact that the army has run out of gunpowder, the only weapons that each flag can carry out long-range strikes are these infantry bows.
Fortunately, there was no shortage of bows and arrows in Shenyang's arsenal. Li Ruzhen and Dingbi also provided some weapons to support each banner. In addition, the Hou Jinjia soldiers were all good at archery, so they quickly had enough archers for more than 10,000 people.
Fan Wencheng, who was standing next to him, quickly echoed:
"We have a strong army in Dajin. One hundred thousand armored soldiers threw whips to cut off the flow. Liu Zhao and Sun Gu's troops went deep into the army, just to die!"
Nurhaci glanced at him, and Fan Wencheng was so frightened that he stopped quickly.
At the top of Wengcheng, there are still traces of the artillery explosion that day.
Nurhaci looked up at the Kaiyuan soldiers crossing the river on the north bank. His eyes suddenly turned cold and he gritted his teeth and said:
"It's less than 100,000, but it can still crush these ants!"
Fan Wencheng heard shrill screams coming from behind him. When he looked back, the North and South Streets near the Wengcheng were full of people running for their lives.
Groups of Yehe people were banging on the doors one by one. They rushed into the homes of Liao people, holding silver and jewelry in their arms, and dragged out disheveled Han women. A group of servants blocked several people at the entrance of the alley and slashed them with knives without explanation.
Fan Wencheng guessed that these people should be the Kaiyuan Wolf Soldiers mentioned by Ding Bi.
The scene in the city made his teeth sore. Although he was dressed, he was not as murderous as Ding Bi. He turned his head and looked towards the south bank.
Countless Houjin Baya with small triangular flags on their backs were galloping along the shore. All the armored soldiers of the four major banners filled the open space on the shore, waiting quietly for the enemy troops on the north bank to cross the river.
"A fly shakes a tree! Hahaha!" He laughed twice and carefully looked at the Great Golden Khan sitting next to him.
~~~~~~
The buzzing sound of a swarm of bees suddenly came from far away, and two guards immediately raised their long signs to protect Liu Zhaosun.
The black demon dragon formed by tens of thousands of light arrows roared and hit the north bank position with thunderous force, as if it wanted to tear apart all living things on the north bank.
Sharp arrow clusters hit the long card, and the buffalo leather long card made a dull banging sound, like a passionate war drum.
Liu Zhaosun looked at the black demonic dragon, smiled contemptuously, turned to the messenger and said:
"Jiannu shows up, launches the divine fire flying crow! Destroy this demonic dragon!"
The blue flag was raised high from the cover of two long cards.
The hillside one mile away from the pontoon bridge on the north bank of the Hun River was suddenly enveloped by a huge sheet of white smoke.
Then, three hundred and sixty flying crows of divine fire soared into the sky through the white mist formed by burning gunpowder, rising diagonally into the sky.
Hundreds of sacred fire flying crows trailing long tail flames soon merged into a red fire dragon over the Hun River.
The fire dragon flew into the sky, with a frightening roar, and rushed towards the expanding body of the black demonic dragon beneath it.
Two giant dragons collided and bitten in mid-air in the middle of the river. The roars of demonic dragons were heard on both sides of the Hun River, and thousands of black and red dragon scales fell off.
Countless black arrows were engulfed in flames, like thousands of dragon scales, falling from the sky and scattering towards the river.
More than a dozen of the divine fire crows that were shot circled in the air and fell rapidly, slamming into the middle of the river. The explosion raised a water column several feet high.
Tens of thousands of soldiers on both sides of the Taiwan Strait stared at the sky with their mouths wide open.
Liu Zhaosun smiled coldly:
"Nurhaci, I will kill you, the demon dragon, today!"
The fire dragon separated again a hundred steps away from the north bank and turned into more than two hundred nirvana fire phoenixes, dragging several meters of flames and flying to the Houjin formation on the north bank.
"What a beautiful Phoenix Nirvana! Can it wash away your sins?"
Liu Zhaosun murmured to himself. As expected, the effect of the rocket cleaning was still not satisfactory this time.
Only fifty of the three hundred and sixty divine fire flying crows fell into the formation of archers on the south bank.
Most rockets start to undergo Brownian motion (referring to the never-ending irregular motion of particles suspended in liquid or gas) as soon as they fly over the Hun River.
Some of the rockets fell into the moat, and some were shot at the head of the North Gate Wengcheng.
More divine fire flying crows directly crossed the north gate city wall and rushed into the city. I hope they would not kill or injure Ding Shen who was running around.
There was even a divine fire flying crow that was ignited and then turned around and flew over the head of the 1,000th headquarters preparing to cross the river, exploding in an open space three hundred steps away from the Kaiyuan Army's formation.
After the divine fire and flying crows washed the ground, the black demonic dragon calmed down a lot.
Because they were too far apart, Liu Zhaosun could not clearly see Hou Jin's casualties.
Seeing that the arrow rain around them was obviously much sparser, Liu Zhaosun judged that Nurhachi had probably lost at least a thousand more archers in this attack.
The morale of the opponent has definitely dropped to rock bottom.
Especially the two yellow flags who have experienced this, their warriors, had already experienced the terror of the divine fire flying crow last night.
In addition, the memories left by the cavalry charge to the warriors were not very good.
Liu Zhaosun estimated that with a few more rounds of fire dragons washing the ground, the two yellow flags' Zhenyi armor soldiers would collapse immediately.
Thinking of this, he decided to help the remnants of the Two Yellow Flags break their psychological limits for free, so he immediately called in the head of the thundersmith in charge of the launch.
He said angrily:
"When I go back this time, I want to have a good chat with Mr. Song. He, just now, almost prevented me from destroying Hou Jin. Watching the divine fire crows fly over the heads of the soldiers, I was so frightened that my wounds were about to burst again."
The honest and honest Mr. Lei had an earth-colored head and face, and he knelt on the ground and kowtowed repeatedly.
Liu Zhaosun patted him on the shoulder, smiled slightly and said:
"How many more rockets do you have?"
"Back, sir, there are only 700 left. This time, my lord wants the soldiers to travel lightly and quickly. The workshop is short of manpower, so we can only bring more than a thousand..."
Liu Zhaosun stretched out his hand to interrupt Lei Jiang's head, pointed to the hillside in the distance, and said to the frightened old man:
"Go, shoot them all at once, close the distance and shoot, aiming at the slave archers on the south bank who are not dead yet."
Lei Jiangtou was stunned for a moment, then turned and left.
Liu Zhaosun shouted at the old craftsman’s back:
"Lei Jiangtou, I was just joking. Don't be afraid of missing the target. Remember, destiny is mine, not the slave creation!"
Liu Zhaosun smiled, and the pain on his body seemed to ease a little.
At this time, the slightly stagnant arrow rain swept forward again, and the black demonic dragon roared towards the 1000th headquarters preparing to cross the river.
At the same time, the second round of divine fire flying crows was launched into the sky, and thousands of fire birds turned into fire dragons in the sky, roaring and crashing into the black demonic dragon.
Liu Zhaosun did not watch the fight between the demon dragons in the Hun River, but turned around and loudly ordered the soldiers to cross the river.
"Shield formation moves forward! Pay attention to the potholes on the bridge!"
"The auxiliary soldiers carry the planks! Prevent the slaves from burning the bridge!"
"Scatter the fishing boats! If you die in battle, push them into the river!"
The 1,000th headquarters, which had completed their formation, immediately began to cross the river.
The fifteen fishing boats docked on the shore also rowed at the same time, quickly approaching the south shore.
These fifteen temporarily mobilized fishing boats, each carrying more than 30 people, totaling 500 people, are auxiliary forces for forcibly crossing the river.
A dense array of bamboo nails is used around the fishing boat for cover. There are blunderbuss holes between the bamboos for shooting arrows and firing blunderbuss.
On the pontoon, there were 1,300 people from the First Thousand General Bar, divided into twelve flag teams. The spearmen followed behind the sword and shield bearers, and there were also some white pole soldiers mixed in the middle. There were also some auxiliary soldiers walking at the end carrying planks.
A total of more than 2,600 soldiers from the Second and Third Thousand Headquarters formed a huge long shield formation and prepared to cross the river. Burhanggu led the cavalry to cover behind the military camp.
The rain of arrows covered the sky and the sun, and the shield formation on the north bank remained motionless.
The bridge section near the north bank was covered with dense arrow clusters, and the white arrow feathers in the sky were like colorful fallen flowers, covering the corpses of the Kaiyuan soldiers who had charged into battle last night.
The bridge deck was filled with corpses in different postures and piled up into a hill. Most of the corpses were Hou Jin soldiers.
Last night on this section of the bridge, the fiercest battle in the bloody battle of Hunhe broke out between Ming and Jin.
The soldiers had no time to stop and look at the corpses of their comrades. The sword and shield soldiers held up their long signs to cover the spear soldiers as they moved forward quickly.
Light arrows roared around the soldiers like a storm, and the flag captains of each team blew their bamboo whistles desperately to remind the long players to pay attention to the corpses at their feet.
Soon a soldier tripped over the corpse, his body was exposed outside the long sign, and he was immediately hit by a dense rain of arrows.
Sporadic screams were heard from the pontoon, casualties began to appear in the war barracks, and Deng Changxiong ordered to speed up the advance.
The flag team at the front had already approached fifty steps away from the south bank. The golden archers behind the other bank immediately changed heavy arrows and shot away the original soldiers.
Above the soldiers' heads, rockets flew across the river, making a shrill roar.
Deng Changxiong, escorted by two soldiers, led the 1,000th headquarters to the front.
The whistling sound of his own rocket above his head was deafening and about to pierce his eardrums. Instead, President Xiong Qian felt relaxed.
There was another dense explosion on the other side of the river. This was the third round of rocket launch.
After three rounds of divine fire and flying crows washed the ground, the black demonic dragon that had just been plundering both sides of the Hun River completely disappeared.
Deng Changxiong and the others, who were already not far from the south bank, could clearly hear bursts of screams coming from the shore, mixed with some harsh roars from Jiannu.
Liu Zhaosun witnessed the forwards of the 1,000th Headquarters quickly approaching the south bank, but the slaves on the other side were still unable to bridge. Liu Zhaosun suspected that the archers on the other side had collapsed.
He didn't think about the conspiracy and conspiracy that the slave chief was planning. He couldn't miss the opportunity and immediately ordered the 2000 headquarters to also start crossing the river.
The 1,300 soldiers of the 2000th Headquarters poured onto the pontoon like a tide,
