Chapter 135
As the commander swung his long sword towards the sky in the direction of Mo Jun, and at the same time, he "fired an arrow" as if he had exhausted all his strength. Against the background of the fire, the figure of the commander from a high place, Like a majestic lion, it issued a battle call, which was inspiring and blood boiling. In an instant, countless arrows rose into the sky and went straight into the sky. . . At the same time, Kong Xiao immediately ordered people to pour grease on the wood and throw it into the wall of fire. The wall of fire that was about to be consumed instantly rekindled and burst into huge flames.
Seeing that the Tiger Army was less than 500 meters away from the Feng Army's wall of fire, countless arrows from the Feng Army began to fall mercilessly, plop, plop, plop... The sound of the arrows hitting the human body spread like instrumental music. Then it turned into the playing of another musical instrument, thump, thump, thump... A large number of tiger and warrior cavalry fell off their horses, mixed with screams, wails, and the whine of the war horses.
Due to the speed, many soldiers and war horses who were hit by arrows began to slow down, but they continued to fly forward due to the effect of inertia. However, the cavalry behind who were not hit by arrows still maintained their charging speed. Facing the slowdown in front, they could not move forward at all. If he didn't dodge, he would collide with those in front of him, or he would be tripped by soldiers or horses who fell to the ground, and would be trampled to pieces in an instant. Unfortunately, the soldiers and horses who survived the arrows were trampled to death by their companions. Maybe, they were having dinner together just now, laughing, scolding, and encouraging each other. This is the cruelty of war.
After each round of arrow formations, the density of cavalry in the square formation in front of the Tiger and Ben Army was greatly reduced, but after all, it was fifty thousand Tiger and Ben troops. After only three rounds of arrow formation, there were still a large number of cavalry rushing to a distance of fifty meters in front of the fire wall, and the arrows Most of the formation flew over their heads. Only the wind troops on the walls on both sides shot at them. The density and power were already too small. It seemed that within a moment, the tiger troops in front could rush through the wall of fire. , entered the Fengjun camp. At this moment, the little flames that were flickering on the ground seemed to have regained life. With a breath, the fire began to burn again.
This is something Nan Yan never expected. His calculation was correct. By the time the Tiger Army was about to rush into the Feng Camp, the wind wall should have stopped burning. Even if it was partially burned, it would not be an obstacle to the Tiger Army. Mo Ma With a leap in the air, you can cross a distance of more than ten meters, not to mention the Fengjun wall, which is only two or three meters wide. However, under Kong Xiao's precise command, some of the Tiger and Ben troops rushed through the Feng Army's arrow formation and were about to rush into the Feng Camp with all their strength when the fire wall rekindled a huge flame. Although it will not cause lethality, the consequences of frightening the war horses are no less powerful than the wind army's arrow formation. The war horses of the Tiger and Ben Army were disturbed by this sudden change. They no longer obeyed the control of the cavalry, but naturally became fearful. They raised their front hooves high, raised their heads to the sky, and made a loud cry. If it were not for the stirrups and Without the reins, the cavalry would definitely be thrown off their horses. The Tigers and Ben troops who were rushing at the front were hit by this change, and the attack immediately stopped. After the cavalry stabilized their bodies, they quickly tried to control and calm the horses, but the cavalry behind them who had no time to slow down followed one after another. In this way, a large number of cavalry were trapped in the front three of the wall of fire. There was a distance of about ten meters, and no one could advance. More and more cavalry rushed up from behind. Coupled with the guidance of Feng Jun on the wall, the Feng Jun in the camp began to adjust the shooting distance, from the original 60-degree high angle to long-range shooting. Adjusted to a 20-degree low-angle close-range shot. In the view of Huben Jun, the arrows were shot continuously from the huge wall of fire. Not only did it cause huge damage, but it also continued to frighten the war horses, because some arrows passed through the wall of fire. Finally, the eagle feathers on the arrow tails were attracted by the flames, so that the fluttering arrows turned into rockets. The war horses were frightened and kept screaming and retreating. In addition, the arrows from the wind troops on the walls on both sides gave the Tigers and Ben troops a chance to attack. It caused huge damage, but in just a short time, the corpses of tiger soldiers and horses piled up like a mountain in front of the wall of fire. At this point, the losses of the Huben army had exceeded the losses in the first round of attack. The wall of fire of the Feng army camp so close at hand seemed to have become an insurmountable gap for the Huben army. Of course, the Huben Army is also very elite. Immediately after the accident, generals at all levels desperately issued various orders, trying to get the soldiers to calm the horses, adjust their status, reorganize the cavalry, and try to use themselves and the bodies of the horses to charge through the wall of fire. They broke open a path of flesh and blood, allowing the following troops to move forward smoothly, but it was too difficult to control the frightened horses. At the same time, the wind army would not give them much time and opportunity, and the arrows that kept flying completely killed them. effort. At this point in the battle, it is unimaginable that the losses of two rounds of nearly 30,000 Mo Kingdom's elite Tiger and Ben troops did not cause any direct casualties to the Feng army.
Battle reports came to the high ground one after another. It was fine at first, but when Nan Yan found that the Fengjun camp in the distance was gradually losing its light and suddenly the fire started to rise again, his heart skipped a beat and he couldn't help but say "ah". He reacted extremely Quickly, he immediately realized Feng Jun's intention, but his mood immediately stabilized. He held out a glimmer of hope that his Tiger Army would be able to cope with this situation, or that a large number of cavalry would have rushed into Feng Jun's camp and caused a storm. Camp fire. But what he hoped for turned out to be exactly the opposite. Normally, all battle situations and changes should be analyzed in the head coach's mind, and there should be no illusions about any situation. But in this urgent situation, Nan Yan did not Any good solution can only be pinned on hope. Of course, this is not blind. This hope comes from his understanding of the combat power of the Huben Army.
When a war horse flew to the high ground again and reported to the general, "My former soldiers were blocked outside the fire wall of Fengying, the attack was blocked, and there were heavy casualties." Nan Yan's hope was completely shattered, and he and the surrounding generals began to become nervous. , became anxious and said, "General, the war situation is very unfavorable, we must find a way quickly." Someone kept shouting out such reminders.
Nan Yan was worthy of being an experienced coach. After a brief ups and down of his thoughts, he quickly calmed down. His mind started to spin rapidly. He quickly analyzed the battle and even re-speculated on Xiao Muqing's thoughts. In just a moment, he After the analysis, he turned around and said to the generals: "Everyone, Xiao Muqing has no way out now. He can only defend with all his strength. Abandoning the camp and retreating is the last option for him. Otherwise, he will become the prey of our army. Now they can be said to be doing a trap." In the battle between beasts, although we are under great pressure, they have no choice. This is the most critical time. If we cannot hold on, we will give them more time to breathe and even a chance to escape. Therefore, we You have to withstand the pressure and keep attacking.”
"General, give the order." The generals understood what Nan Yan meant, so they replied in unison.
Nan Yan looked at the generals and nodded slightly. As expected of his subordinates who have been following him for many years, he ordered: "General Ma, General Xia, you two sent orders to the infantry of the east and west camps respectively, saying that the defeat of the Feng Army has been determined, and ordered them to attack quickly. Let’s break the wind camp together, and you two will each help them out.” "Follow the order" The current battle situation was to put out the fire, without any delay, the two of them immediately rushed towards the infantry battalion.
"General Ma Chao Ma, give the progressive cavalry a strong attack order, so that the attacking phalanx must enter the Feng camp as soon as possible regardless of any cost. At the same time, the 30,000 cavalry can attack at full speed without giving the Feng army any chance to breathe." Ma Chao accepted the order. After leaving, two kinds of huge trumpet sounds were heard overwhelmingly. One was rapid and violent, giving an order to the troops closer to the enemy to attack, and the other, low and long, was an order to the troops farther away to start marching.
After a moment, the third group of 100,000 infantry and 30,000 cavalry formed a huge phalanx and began to charge forward.
In the Fengjun tent, Xiao Muqing also continued to receive battle reports. So far, this battle was beyond Xiao Muqing's expectation. He became more and more confident. At this moment, the horn sound of Mo Jun's attack came again in the distance. , after carefully distinguishing it, from the two horn sounds, he immediately realized that Nanyan could no longer hold on, and a full-scale attack had begun. In this way, the enemy's infantry must be arriving soon.
He knew that the best time he said was coming soon
