406: Death Cannon Rain! Absolutely Terrified!

The reason why Chu Ye became the commander-in-chief of the Northern Legion was not because he was outstanding, but because his qualifications were old enough. ? ? ? Hunter ? ?

Secondly, he is rough and heroic on the surface, scolding his father and mother at every turn, and talking about the air every day. But he is cautious and humble in his heart.

When I saw Xili today, his knees seemed to have no bones, and he knelt down at every turn, swearing his allegiance to His Highness over and over again.

After seeing Turingtuo tomorrow, it seemed as if there were no long bones on his waist, and he kept saying, old marshal, old general, I am always a soldier under your tent.

Do you want to be shameless? You, Chu Ye, were born in a traditional honorable family, and you have always been gilded in the Northern Legion. Only when you attacked the Duchy of Yelan, you once led a partial division to support Turingtuo. it's over.

When did you stay under the tent of the Duke of Turingto?

But it is only people like him who can walk between Turingtuo and Shili, and the position of commander of the Northern Legion has been held securely for so many years.

In terms of fighting skills, Chu Ye only has two characteristics, thick-skinned, black-hearted, and cautious!

This cautiousness does not mean that this person is very careful, but that he is stable and fights according to the textbook.

Just such a person, neither high nor low.

However, it was just such a person, when he saw hundreds of artillery bombarding the south bank position together, and then the troops crossing the river fell down like cutting wheat.

His heart twitched so violently that it almost stopped beating.

Then, there was icy cold all over his body, and cold sweat broke out on his back.

"It's a big trouble, it's a big trouble..." Earl Chuye kept muttering to himself, "I hope this thing doesn't hit too far, otherwise..."

Now, what he considered was not just his own battlefield, but the entire occupation, especially the central army in Zhili.

His first thought was to immediately send someone to notify Xili to be careful about Sauron's new weapon.

Soon he realized that he was thinking too much, his side was already fighting, and Xili's Chinese army must have started fighting.

Standing on a high place, he saw the row in front of the troops crossing the river, almost dead.

It's okay to be shot by a small projectile,

Just die. And the person who was shot by the chain bullet was too miserable, the whole body was cut in half alive.

There were 20,000 troops crossing the river, and only one round of shelling killed at least two or three thousand people.

The remaining troops across the river were completely stunned and at a loss for what to do.

Many people don't even understand, what happened? Why was there a loud noise in front, and then many things came crashing down like a torrential rain, the sky seemed to darken, and the people in front died.

At this time, Earl Chu Ye hissed, "Continue to cross the river, rush over, rush over..."

Immediately, the remaining 10,000 troops crossing the river came over in a daze, and hurriedly paddled desperately, trying to cross the tens of meters of the river and reach the position on the south bank.

However, the round of shelling just now killed countless soldiers at the front of the troops crossing the river. Hundreds of bamboo rafts lost control and collided with each other in all directions, blocking all the bamboo rafts behind.

On the four-mile-long river, one or two thousand bamboo rafts crossed the river at once, which is too dense.

Earl Chu Ye immediately ordered and shouted: "Cover the army to cross the river!"

"Catapult, shoot."

"Giant crossbow, shoot."

"Archer, shoot!"

Chu Ye's army tried to use intensive long-range attacks to cover Sauron's position and cover the army from crossing the river.

"Whoosh whoosh..."

Hundreds of stone bullets crossed hundreds of meters of the river and smashed towards Suoshi's position on the south bank.

In the absence of city walls, these stone bullets are really amazing.

But still the same sentence, the accuracy of the trebuchet is so touching, it is entirely by luck.

The momentum was astonishing, but the casualties caused were limited.

"Hoo hoo hoo..."

Immediately afterwards, the sky seemed to suddenly darken.

Thousands of giant crossbows fired, and tens of thousands of archers fired in salvo.

Arrows, like raindrops, slammed into Sauron's south bank position.

but……

The lethality is still negligible, because Sauron's army is in the criss-cross trenches, and all the cannons are in the bunkers and bunkers.

When the arrow rain came, the soldiers in the trench could at most raise their shields to block them all.

"Shua, Shua, Shua..."

In order to cover the troops crossing the river, Chu Ye's army had tens of thousands of soldiers bending their bows and shooting arrows constantly.

Countless arrows really fell like a torrential rain.

In a short period of time, the entire south bank position was like a hedgehog, filled with countless arrows.

But, seven minutes later!

Hundreds of artillery pieces in Sauron's position on the south bank were ready for the second round of shelling.

And Earl Chuye's more than 10,000 troops crossing the river approached within tens of meters.

But this time, Yan Nai'er ordered that all be replaced with shotguns.

One order!

"Fire!"

"Boom boom boom boom..."

Hundreds of cannons burst into flames and made loud noises again!

Then, an even more frenzied and terrifying torrential rain slammed past.

Then……

There is a sound of rain hitting the beach!

Earl Chuye closed his eyes in pain, not daring to look at them at all.

Because this time, the casualties were greater than the first round of shelling.

This time all shotgun shells were used, and there were hundreds of steel balls in the tens of kilograms of shells.

And because of the disordered formation, more than 10,000 troops crossing the river were crowded together, scrambling to try to land on the south bank.

result……

After a rain of iron balls, countless soldiers on the bamboo rafts were seen to be empty.

Countless corpses fell into the water densely and were washed away by the Nu River.

The originally turbid water of the Nu River turned out to be covered in blood.

There were a total of 20,000 troops approved to cross the river, and after two rounds of shelling, they lost nearly half of them.

And the remaining half, crying like ghosts and howling like wolves, have already lost their souls.

Chu Ye's face was trembling, and his whole body was trembling.

There are more than 10,000 people left, should we continue to rush forward? That's no different from dying.

But if you just retreat like this, what kind of blow will it be to morale?

And at this moment...

"Whoosh whoosh..."

In Sauron's south bank position, tens of thousands of soldiers bent their bows and shot arrows in the trenches.

Arrows rained down on the river one after another.

It has to be said that although the tens of thousands of soldiers shooting arrows at the same time are also very intensive, their lethality is far less than that of artillery shells.

After all, Sauron's soldiers stood in the trenches and threw them into the air, so the hit rate was indeed very low.

But the artillery was aimed at the crowd and fired violently. Countless projectiles rushed over like a giant net, and they couldn't escape it.

Although the hit rate of bow and arrow projectiles was very low, the troops crossing the river on the bamboo rafts continued to fall into the river in the middle.

The remaining 10,000 troops crossing the river were in a panic, not knowing whether to retreat or move on.

"Ming Jin, withdraw troops!" Earl Chu Ye said in pain.

Suddenly, there was a sound of gongs from behind the army.

The rest of the crossing troops desperately turned their paddles and fled towards the north bank.

but……

Just got halfway through.

The third round of shelling has been prepared.

"Boom boom boom..."

Countless projectiles were thrown out like a torrential rain again.

Because the distance is a little farther, the lethality is also smaller, but there are still countless soldiers who were shot and killed directly!

Immediately afterwards, Sauron's arrows rained round after round.

In the end, the troops crossing the river who survived the catastrophe fled back to the north bank in embarrassment. Of the 20,000 troops, only 5,000 came back.

The remaining 15,000 people had all died in the Nu River.

Earl Chuye felt dizzy for a while.

Fifteen thousand people died, which is not much for an army of 250,000, less than a hundred.

but……

It was less than an hour before the battle started.

Over 10,000 lives were lost in the mere 200-meter Nu River.

The point is, with this style of play, there is absolutely no hope of crossing the river.

If it is an arrow, it can be blocked with a shield. And the projectiles fired by the artillery directly shot through the shield, killing people.

Among the 15,000 people, 5,000 are the so-called southeast rebellion army. A total of 10,000 people are soldiers of his Northern Legion, and they are the foundation of his family and life.

"Let others take the credit for it, and then don't blame me for being passive." Earl Chuye thought to himself.

Then, he ordered suddenly: "All trebuchets, giant crossbows, and archers shoot, annihilate the enemies on the south bank."

As soon as these words came out, the other generals were startled.

A civil servant from the southeast province next door said, "Master Earl, no... have you crossed the river?"

"Cross your mother's hole." Earl Chuye thought to himself.

next...

On the north bank of the Nujiang River, the fighting was in full swing, in full swing!

The huge crossbows, archers, and trebuchets of Chu Ye's army frantically fired towards the south bank position.

Chu Ye knew that the hit rate was very low, and it wouldn't cause much casualties to Sauron's army, but he only needed to show that he was fighting desperately.

After all, the arrows were provided by Shili, so they were free of charge. But every soldier of the Northern Legion is the foundation of his Chu family's life, and it would be a pity to die.

Anyway, I just keep fighting, how many enemies can be eliminated, then... then I let me say.

As soon as the battle started, Sox's defense line on the south bank of the Nujiang River was smashed. So Earl Chu Ye was about to start paddling, and he was passive and slack.

...

The Earl of Chuye can steal chickens and play tricks, but he can't do it, and neither can Turingtuo. They have no way out.

In the fierce battle of Fengleibao's defense line, we will go all out from the beginning!

Facing the four-mile-long defense line, the siege army sent by Zhili in the first battle was as many as 100,000.

His strategy is very simple, just use human lives to pile up!

More than 20 infantry phalanxes, under the cover of giant shield vehicles and giant siege vehicles, kept advancing.

The densely packed giant trebuchets and giant crossbows moved within 500 meters.

"Shoot... shoot..."

The trebuchets on Zhili's side began to fire, and thousands of giant crossbows began to fire.

Hundreds of boulders smashed hard on the wall of Fengleibao's defense line, and countless giant arrows shot at the wall.

The power is astonishing, and I feel that the entire city wall is trembling.

but……

The wall of Fengleibao's defense line is more than ten meters thick, and it is simply not something that a mere trebuchet can smash.

After the trebuchet and the crossbow shot.

Turingtuo roared loudly on the back of the griffin: "The army charges, captures the defense line of Fengleibao, and kills Sauron!"

Amidst the thundering drums, countless infantry rushed toward the Fengleibao defense line hundreds of meters away.

Zhili and Turingtuo are crazy!

In the first round of attack, 50,000 infantry were directly dispatched.

On a battlefield more than four miles wide and more than one mile long, 50,000 infantry soldiers were actually invested. And the second wave of 50,000 infantry is also ready to rush out at any time and attack the city relay.

This is completely to be piled up with human lives. How can there be a battlefield that is so dense?

Amidst the terrifying battle drums, Zhili's siege army quickly entered within a range of 500 meters!

"Shoot, shoot..."

Sauron gave an order!

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh..."

Hundreds of trebuchets and countless giant crossbows shot wildly on the Fengleibao defense line.

At this distance, Sauron did not use artillery!

Although, the artillery hits farther and has a higher hit rate. But each round of volleys takes a full six or seven minutes, and this time is enough for the separated infantry to rush through the position of several hundred meters and reach under the city wall.

Moreover, now Sauron only has gunpowder and no powerful explosives, so even if there are flower bombs, the lethality is very small.

Although the lethality of using solid bullets to hit infantry is good, it is not as good as a trebuchet, let alone throwing gunpowder packets with a trebuchet.

Therefore, unless there are high explosives, Sauron will never use flowering bombs to hit infantry, it's too tasteless.

He has a very clear strategy for using hundreds of artillery pieces, that is, wait for the enemy to approach and shoot shotguns!

...

"Whoosh whoosh..."

The hundreds of trebuchets thrown out by the Fengleibao defense line were all gunpowder bags, ranging from tens of catties to hundreds of catties!

"Boom boom boom boom..."

Hundreds of gunpowder packets fell on the formation of the Zhili army, causing earth-shattering explosions.

Even after a few miles, Shili could feel the ground trembling.

And every time there was an explosion, whether it was a giant crossbow or a trebuchet, it was torn apart like a toy and thrown into the air.

As for the soldiers, it was even more astonishing, they were directly blown to pieces.

Shili, who was riding on a griffin overlooking the battlefield, could see clearly when a giant gunpowder bag fell on the infantry formation.

Although those infantrymen have fled around quickly.

But...after a bang...

The entire infantry formation seemed to be empty, and I don't know how many people died.

Seeing this scene, Zhili's face turned blue!

Sauron's gunpowder is amazing!

Just now, the first volley fired by Zhili's catapults and giant crossbows at Fengleibao's defenses had little damage.

And Sauron's one projection caused at least thousands of casualties.

"Sauron's gunpowder is indeed anti-dragon power, anti-traditional, and its power is too amazing." With lingering fear in his heart, he said: "Now I finally know that Gui Xingling was so defeated. The army is destroyed."

Duke Turingtuo said: "Don't worry, Your Highness, it takes more than half an hour for a giant catapult to fire a volley. With this time, our soldiers have already rushed under the city wall. Such a terrible bombing is only one round."

Zhili said: "Rushing under the city wall, Sauron threw kerosene, right?"

"Yes." Turingtuo said: "But the second round of our trebuchet attack will also throw fish oil bombs. If they smash the fire oil barrels down on the city wall, they will probably be burned to death themselves. And we have Fireproof shields, fireproof siege engines, and fireproof cloaks. Sauron's kerosene tactics are no longer as lethal as before."

"Rush, rush..."

The soldiers who escaped the first round of gunpowder bombardment ran frantically towards the walls of Fenglei Castle.

The distance is getting closer, closer and closer...

Three hundred meters, two hundred meters, more than one hundred meters!

Right now...

Sauron hissed, "All artillery ready!"

"All trebuchets, get ready!"

"put!"

The entire Fengleibao defense line was densely packed with hundreds of artillery pieces, all firing!

"Boom boom boom boom..."

It looked as if the entire city wall had burst into flames.

The soldiers on the city wall clearly felt that the entire city wall shook violently.

Then, the light of countless metals flashed!

Hundreds of thousands of projectiles, like the densest torrential rain, slammed towards the most secret siege army.

At the same time, hundreds of trebuchets were thrown in the second round.

This time the throwing distance was very short, less than 200 meters.

However, the powder pack thrown out is very large.

Hundreds of gunpowder packets fell into the crowd of the siege army, after the earth-shattering explosion.

What came out was not only flames, but also countless shrapnel, countless projectiles, and countless lead bullets!

The most original cluster bomb!

At this moment, on this battlefield of only 500,000 square meters, there were more than a million projectiles, which exploded violently and fired wildly.

Millions of projectiles are fired randomly in such a narrow space!

In such a crowded battlefield, there are densely packed soldiers everywhere.

Zhili could see clearly in the air.

After the flames burst out, the narrow battlefield seemed to have been slammed by a heavy rain of metal.

Then……

That area seemed to be empty!

Immediately afterwards, a cloud of blood mist suddenly rose into the air.

In an instant, Zhili felt a sudden chill on his back!

Then, my mind went blank!

Now, he finally knew why Zhili's 100,000 navy lost so badly, almost the whole army was wiped out!

And Turingduo's body trembled violently, and his eyes burst open to the maximum in an instant!

This, perhaps the most terrifying killing in the history of the Nulang Kingdom?

Although the previous fire attack burned hundreds of thousands of people to death in one fell swoop. But that took a long time after all.

And at this time, it was really a swish.

In just a moment, the metal rainstorm slammed.

Then, countless people died!
