Chapter 15 The War Has Been Set
The last enemy held his weapon high, his body was filled with arrows, and fell backwards!
The battlefield is quiet!
The east wind blows the battle flag and drifts with the wind. The air is filled with the smell of burning gunpowder, mixed with a strong smell of blood!
In front of the battle formation, the enemy's corpses were covered with the corpses. On the closer corpses, the arrows standing on the ground grew unscrupulously like weeds!
A little further away, countless broken limbs and arms are scattered everywhere, and the deep red marks on the earth make the clear sunshine gloomy!
The soldiers' appearance after being stained with smoke from gunpowder was calm and felt a little tired, although it was only two minutes to fight!
A firm face cannot evade the fatigue in the heart, and a solid body also has an emotional soul!
No matter how strong the will is, it is still a flesh and blood body!
Today is the sixth day of the battle from Tianqian Pass. In just six days, there are three battles, and on average, every day is one battle!
After settling out of the Heavenly Cage Pass, the continuous battles made the soldiers gradually get used to this urgent rhythm!
I can only hope that the next battle will end soon!
...
Half an hour ago, reinforcements were heading towards the small town where Kevin Castle was located.
"Dear Cavalry, the enemy is already lined up outside the city and is waiting for us!"
A spy returned to the marching army and found the knights of this army!
Like another destroyed army, this army also has four knights, and the second knight under Kevin is one of these four knights!
At this time, the other two knights under Kevin were all buried in the small city, but I don’t know whether they were buried under the city wall or destroyed in the castle!
The second knight immediately asked, "The enemy is lined up outside the city? Did you see the Lord?"
The spy knew that the knight was asking Lord Kevin and replied, "Good knight, my subordinates didn't see it, but there was a lot of black smoke floating in the city, as if there was a fire in the city!"
When the Second Knight heard the spy's answer, he collapsed on the nose and looked at the south with his eyes blank!
I thought he tried his best and finally followed the other three knights to other territories to request reinforcements. Now it seems that he is still one step too late!
The other three knights looked at each other and were a little surprised. They didn't expect the city to fall so quickly!
But they were not worried too much. Anyway, the enemy would return the city in the end, but they didn’t know how much the price they would pay!
Now that they hear that there are still enemies waiting for their army, they are a little angry. Are they looking down on their seven thousand army?
It seems like the enemy is saying to them, "Come and die quickly", can this not make them angry?
A knight with a little older age leader shouted at the second knight who was in a state of dismay: "Brother, wake up, cheer up, it's here. Do you have anything to say?"
The second knight was woken up by the knight who was a little older than the year. After returning to his senses, he put away his sadness and cheered up. After thinking for a while, he said, "The war is about to start, and the enemy is waiting for us. I have nothing to say, just one thing!"
He looked at the other three knights seriously and said seriously: "The enemy has a very powerful weapon, with a loud noise, like a thunder, which is much more powerful than a catapult, but the attack speed is as slow as a catapult!"
"But we have a lot of people, so as long as we can rush over, we can win!" The Second Knight once again emphasized the power of the enemy's weapons!
But the other three people didn't think so. It was like a catapult. What's so scary about the weapon? Isn't it just a little louder? Although the catapult is powerful, it can kill at most two or three people at a time. Just run faster!
So the knight with a young age leader replied, "Don't worry, brother, we will pay attention. As you said, we have more people, just run faster!"
"Okay!" The second knight nodded, looked at the enemy waiting in front of him, and said, "Everyone is ready, we will also start to line up and prepare for attack!"
Then several people discussed the arrangement of the troops they were commanding, and then returned to the troops they were commanding!
The four knights lined up and rode on the wilderness, and nodded solemnly to each other, and at the same time ordered: "All army attack!"
Next, four knights, including the Second Knight, saw these so-called weapons that were more powerful than catapults!
And the so-called insight is to use their own lives to witness the power of this weapon!
In the first round of attack, three of the four knights were bombarded, and the remaining relatively thin knight also turned into flesh and blood in the second round of artillery bombardment!
At this point, all the three knights under Kevin were returned to dust, the earth was returned to earth, blood stained the earth, and flesh and blood returned to nature!
...
"The battle is over!"
Lu Su didn't know whether he was reporting to Di Qing or talking to himself!
Di Qing also nodded softly and said, "Yes! It's over!"
The war in the north has already decided from this moment on - Xia Kingdom won!
The enemy's living power has basically been completely eliminated, and the rest has no threat - including the city wall!
Next, you only need to simply break through the other three cities and then plunder it - this is a very simple thing!
In the battle just now, Di Qing and Lu Su were bullying the enemy's cavalry without a set of establishment, otherwise they would not dare to put artillery at the forefront of the position!
As long as the enemy has about a thousand cavalry, they can risk attacking. After attacking into the artillery position, these artillery will not have much threat!
Of course, if the enemy had cavalry, Di Qing and Lu Su would not have formulated such tactics!
This battle should be considered the second field battle of the infantry brigade!
In the first battle, the two armies confronted each other across the passage, but they did not last long, and there was only one night and another morning.
The tactics of this first battle were very conservative. It was precisely because it was the first battle that Di Qing and Lu Su developed relatively conservative but widely applicable tactics!
As a result, there were certain casualties!
Finally, after discussing and collecting enough enemy intelligence, they thought that such a tactic was too conservative, so they decided to let go and make full use of the advantages of their army!
This is where the tactics of the second battle were all arranged in front of the artillery!
As it turns out, such tactics are very effective, even exceeding expectations!
They themselves did not expect that the artillery would have such great power when it was launched flat and close-range shooting! The shells were plowing out 'gullies' in the enemy!
Logically speaking, artillery is a long-range strike weapon, and sometimes its deterrence on the battlefield is much more obvious than their actual combat power!
Now after this battle, this weapon, known as the "God of War" by later generations, has begun to emerge!
