Chapter 2551 Close Combat

The war was urgent, and Sun Bashan had no extra time to improve morale, so he issued an attack order. "It takes a thousand days to raise an army, but it takes a while to use it. The veterans should try their best to lead the new soldiers. They must not mess up the organization, let alone retreat! One deserter can sweep away ten, and ten can sweep away a hundred! This is a canyon, and this is a narrow encounter. The battlefield where the brave prevails!

Not afraid of death, not to mention courage! The shield bearer leads the way, followed closely by the spearman, forming the first attack echelon. Crossbowmen form the second attack echelon. Mo Daoshou formed the third attack echelon... Charge! "

Sun Bashan took the lead and rushed out first, stepping on the thick corpses of his colleagues and enemies, but who cares now?

Qu Datou is right. Sun Bashan is a genius at fighting in close combat. No general who leads the army rushes to the front of the team, because once a general dies in battle, the morale of the army will be chaotic.

However, Sun Bashan is like a moving mountain. He always rushes to the front. The shield bearers behind him run forward desperately, trying to protect their generals in the shield defense formation, but no one can run away. Cross Sunba Mountain.

If you know you are going to die, then go die.

Zhao Shiqu's eyes were red. He was probably the most tired person since the war started. He had not rested or closed his eyes for four days and four nights. He was sitting at the highest point of Eagle Belly Mountain, in front of his thin-skinned coffin.

The heads of his imperial uncle, Feng Zhiang's several deserting sons, and the heads of two to three hundred escaped generals and captains were hung on the flagpole of Eagle Belly Mountain.

Despite this, there was still a steady stream of deserters returning from the front lines in defeat, abandoning their armor.

The twelfth echelon was dead, the thirteenth echelon lost most of its troops, and the coach of the fourteenth echelon ran away as soon as they attacked.

If the coach runs, the captain will follow.

The people behind were rushing, and the people in front turned around and ran back. This was not a plain, but a valley with cliffs on both sides, so everything was in chaos.

A deputy general hurriedly ran to Zhao Shiqu and said: "Commander, the 14th echelon led by General Guo Jian has been defeated."

Zhao Shiqu sighed.

He didn't know how terrible a defeat was before. Only now did he know how terrible a defeat was after the battle at Yingzuo Cliff.

He said: "Have you reached the fifteenth echelon?"

The deputy general said: "The charge has begun."

Zhao Shiqu asked: "Have any of the defeated soldiers shaken their morale?"

The deputy general shook his head and said: "The general of the fifteenth attack echelon is called Sun Bashan. He is a fierce general. He should not be able to..."

Zhao Shiqu immediately said: "Okay, since he is a fierce general, he should have the ability of a fierce general. Order Sun Bashan to immediately kill Guo Jian who escaped before the battle, and let him take over the fourteenth attack echelon."

The military order was passed on, and the voice of the sound transmission stone sounded on the chaotic battlefield.

General Guo Jian, who was fleeing for his life in panic with his soldiers, looked ashen when he heard the order from the commander Zhao Shiqu.

Just at this time, Sun Bashan and his army jumped out of the thick fog in the north.

Guo Jian is very young, a child of a noble family. He has learned the art of war and strategy since he was a child, but when it comes to bravery, he is not so good on paper.

He saw the murderous Sun Bashan rushing to the front of the team and shouted: "Brother Sun, we can't attack. The enemy is too strong. Don't blame me! Let me go!"

Sun Bashan shouted: "Shame!"

He immediately raised the knife and dropped it. Even the guards around Guo Jian didn't have time to react. Guo Jian's young head rolled down.

Sun Bashan used the sound transmission stone and said loudly: "Guo Jian escaped before the battle and has been prosecuted by military law. Now the 14th attack echelon is under the command of Sun Bashan. No matter where you run, I will turn around for you. Can you Kill someone with your butt?”

The chaotic 14th echelon was all integrated into his own team after Sun Bashan's simple recruitment.

He not only beheaded Guo Jian, but also beheaded three of Guo Jian's lieutenants and temporarily ordered his own people to serve.

It only took less than a stick of incense to delay. The thirteenth echelon in front had been lost in the thick smoke. There were only scattered soldiers running towards this side with swords in their hands.

Sun Bashan saw many tall figures looming in the thick smoke and knew that they were warriors from heaven.

He shouted: "The crossbowmen are ready, shoot three hundred steps upward!"

As a result, the crossbowmen in the center immediately raised their five-stone crossbows. Instead of shooting straight, they fired upwards at an angle of approximately 45 degrees toward the sky.

The dense rain of arrows passed through the black smoke and disappeared into the black smoke. Only the roars coming from the thick smoke canyon in front were heard.

Each attack echelon had 28,000 men, and the defeated 13th attack echelon had less than 800 human soldiers left.

They are not deserters, they are heroes who fight to the end. The coach was cut in half by the Giant Warrior shortly after the battle. Originally, the 14th echelon was supposed to take over and continue to block the enemy's offensive. However, the 14th echelon was in chaos when coach Guo Jian escaped from the battle, leaving the 13th echelon to face the enemy alone. right

A powerful enemy.

Sun Bashan asked the shield soldiers in front to make an opening, let in a few hundred remaining soldiers, and then continued to order the crossbowmen to shoot upward, this time at two hundred steps, and then a hundred steps.

In the end, the crossbow arrows almost hit the scalps of the spearmen and shield soldiers in front. A giant warrior with crossbows stuck all over his body rushed out of the smoke. The wooden shield in his hand was also covered with crossbow arrows. Seeing the neatly lined up human soldiers in front of him, the giant warrior roared and threw away the huge shield in his hand. go out,

Knocked over a large area of ​​the human shield soldiers in front.

It came with a long-handled axe and chopped at him. Immediately, dozens of spears stabbed at it. As a result, dozens of spears were cut off by the axe.

The axe swept almost close to the ground, and three human soldiers were cut into two pieces by the axe.

But more spears and crossbows pierced the body of the giant warrior.

Perhaps it was because this guy had gone crazy before rushing out of the thick smoke. Only a madman would throw a shield to hit people.

Now without a shield in hand, it became a lamb to be slaughtered. After it chopped and killed several people, it was finally stabbed to the ground by more than a dozen spears.

Then, it died.

It died quickly. It died without any struggle after falling to the ground.

Everyone knew that he was hit by too many crossbows and his blood had long been drained. He should have died long ago, but he forced himself to pull seven or eight human soldiers to be buried with him. More and more giant warriors rushed out from the smoke and started fighting. The soldiers on both sides were twisted together like a pretzel. For the sake of a small piece of land under their feet, they used all kinds of vicious, cruel and selfless methods just to kill the enemy in front of them.
