Chapter 643 [Battle of Hot Springs Pass Four]
The miscellaneous army in the United **** also has its own pride. When we saw the "law enforcement team" composed of Qin and Wei Jingrui stood behind us, and when we heard the order of "retreater killing" issued by Sun Bin, plus Sun Bin's preferential treatment for the deceased's 100-yuan pension and the promise of giving his descendants to the Bai Family Free School to introduce Shilin in the future, everyone went crazy!
What is death in battle? The retreaters on the battlefield should have been beheaded! What's more, as long as we rush forward and shake the Spartan army with our flesh and blood, we can win all kinds of blessings for our family and descendants. Such benefits will never be expected! Kill! Revenge the dead robes and win a family background for our children and nephews. We are not brave even though we are dead!
Once the defeated army becomes a mourning army, it is extremely terrible. When these Chinese troops no longer fear death, death begins to fall in love with others and instead favors the arrogant and proud Spartans.
When the Chinese corpses piled up like hills in front of the Spartan army, the Spartan warriors wrapped in muscle armor immediately felt all kinds of inconvenience. Blood flowed on the ground with soil and rocks, making the originally smooth ground extremely bumpy and slippery. Sometimes it is difficult to pull up the feet by stepping into the pit of blood-condensed soil.
When they used the military formations that had been practicing for many years to collide with the enemy, the speed would also be seriously affected by the obstacles of these blood and corpses. Under the endless attack of the Chinese, the Spartan warriors had seriously overdrawn their physical strength. Sometimes they could fall heavily if they had weak feet and could get up for a long time.
Since when, the power of the Chinese crossbows has become increasingly powerful. Although it still cannot truly penetrate their heavy armor, when the giant arrow, which is several times thicker than ordinary bows and arrows hit their breastplate, it will emit sharp metal impact sounds and splash dazzling flames. The huge impact force makes the strong men unable to resist backwards. If they are not careful and do not gather their physical strength to fight against this impact force, they may even be knocked away in one go!
The Chinese were still rushing up like moths throwing fire to death. The Spartans were so weak that they killed them, but they gradually discovered that these enemies were not as easy to kill as before. Perhaps because of their fearlessness, these once "extremely weak" enemies seemed to suddenly become strong men. If they were cut into the armor by their long sword, even if they could not be broken, they would form a huge impact force, making the strong Spartans extremely uncomfortable. And they should be careful to hit the connection of the armor by them, which would be fatal. Some young warriors with insufficient combat experience were cut into the leather connection position by these Chinese, and the consequence was to throw an arm or even a leg.
It is no longer a one-sided massacre. Although the Spartans still maintained victory, and although the piles of Chinese corpses continued to increase, the battle formation that they claimed to never fall gradually began to shake. Excessive killing has slowly wiped out the courage of these Spartan warriors, and at the same time, they have seriously overdrawn their physical strength. The front of the originally uniform military formation began to become "uneven".
This is an extremely terrible thing for the Spartans who do not attach importance to the cooperation of multiple troops and work hard to develop heavy infantry.
Unfortunately, when Clyonmini discovered this, it was too late.
The Chinese people's trumpet sounded, and the war drums were like thunder!
The Chinese army that rushed up like a death retreated like a tide, and countless elite soldiers wearing black and red armor rushed forward. They all had firm eyes and strong figures. Both the weapons in their hands and the flags they waved were very different from the previous Chinese soldiers!
If the semi-illiterate king of Cryonmini could understand the Chinese characters, you can see that the Chinese army's flag was full of the words "Qin" and "Wei"! The most elite Qin and Wei soldiers in the United **** were finally dispatched!
"What kind of weapon is that!"
Clyonmini looked at the Chinese army in surprise and found that their weapons were actually something he had never seen before!
Most Chinese troops held a long "Li Gua". This fruit from Li Xuan Shanzai in the south is one of Cryonmini's favorite foods. However, this is the first time he has seen the weapon in this way! The Li Gua in the Chinese's hands cannot be seen from copper or iron, and it has a long handle. The melon head is two fists. Some simply took two "Li Gua" in their hands. Some held the melon in one hand and the shield in the other. The Spartan warriors were a little confused. This thing was not sharp. Can it be used for combat?
In addition, the Chinese have a more strange weapon. They look a bit like a Roman dagger, but they are much longer than the Roman dagger. They are shorter by the long sword they used before, and have no blades, which is much thicker than ordinary swords. The "sword blade" is actually square, but should look heavy. Chinese warriors using this weapon basically do not hold shields, but hold hands with their hands. When the Spartan warriors attack with their swords, they will cross the weapons with their hands into a cross shape to hold the Spartan warrior's sword, and then they will raise their feet and kick them like monkeys, or use force to the side, and then quickly draw back the weapon and hit the Spartan warrior's heavy armor.
When these strange weapons hit Spartan heavy armor, they would hear muffled sounds. Although they were still unable to break the armor, Cryonmini saw that his warriors' faces changed drastically, and some would shake their bodies a few times, opening their mouths to spit out blood.
"These strange weapons of Chinese people"
Hammer, whip, mace! This is a weapon developed after heavy infantry or cavalry appeared in Chinese history. It is specially used to attack heavy enemies. Although it cannot break the armor, it can hurt or even kill the opponent. At this time, China was still a light armor era. Even the Wei Wuzhang, who claimed to be covered with armor, was not a real heavy infantry, and such weapons would not have been developed. However, with Bai Dong, a "genius", these heavy weapons appeared hundreds of years ago. Before Sun Bin sent troops, the blacksmiths in the Istanbul Port worked overtime day and night, producing "heavy weapons" that were enough to equip thousands of troops.
