Han Dang is stronger

Chapter 352 A Brave Husband

"Kill—!"

The attack in the Han army's flag array had just started, and the former soldiers of the Han army who had been waiting impatiently shouted loudly, and rushed towards the middle gate of the enemy camp that had been smashed open by the Han army's counterweight trebuchet.There was also constant shouting in the Western Chu army camp. The soldiers on the camp hurriedly opened their crossbows and fired arrows, shooting directly to prevent the Han army from charging. Killing the enemy, the Western Chu army team responsible for guarding the gate also hurried forward with the door knife cart, and set up temporary fortifications to protect the barracks gate that had been smashed open. The generals usually train them strictly.

"Whirring whirring--!"

These poor soldiers of the Western Chu Army deserved to be unlucky, because Xiang Kang sent his own soldiers to convey the order, and failed to deliver the order in the first time. At this time, another wave of stone bombs was thrown at the middle gate of the Western Chu Army. The huge stone bombs fell from the sky. The screams and shouts that soared into the sky even directly overwhelmed the shouts of the Han soldiers.

It was at this time that Xiang Kang ordered the trebuchets to bombard the right gate of the South Camp of the Western Chu Army before it was sent to Yang Bu. Yang Bu, who had not closed his eyes for two nights, hurriedly ordered the Han army trebuchets to turn around regardless of his fatigue. , staring at the already bloodshot eyes, personally helped the gunners of the Han army to adjust the shooting angle, and then sent out all kinds of rocks, blasting the right gate of the South Camp of the Western Chu Army.At the same time, three thousand infantrymen of the Han army had also rushed to the right gate of the Western Chu army in order to charge immediately after the Han army's catapult blasted open the gate of the enemy's camp.

On the side of the middle gate, the commandos of the Han army have also rushed into the bow and arrow throwing range of the Western Chu army. Under the command of the watchman on the base, many soldiers of the Western Chu army also quickly threw their feather arrows towards the sky. Fortunately, the Han army used the opportunity of missions before and discovered that the Western Chu army was equipped with more bows and arrows than crossbows. Therefore, the Han army commandos carried enough shields for protection, and just raised their arrows after seeing the Western Chu army camp. Yu immediately raised his shield to protect his upper slope, so although the bows and arrows of the Western Chu army were quite accurate, most of them hit the heads of the Han army commando, but the effect was not great, and it did not affect the Han army. How many deaths and injuries were caused by the soldiers of the army, let alone the shooting back of the Han commandos who were charging.

After several rounds of rain of arrows thrown hastily by the Western Chu Army, the Han army commando had already rushed to the side of the guard trench of the Western Chu Army's camp. Crossbows and arrows were used to block the trench bridge built by the Western Chu army, but the soldiers of the Han army mustered up their courage, resolutely rushed to the bridge, and rushed to the gate of the Western Chu barracks that had been opened wide at the fastest speed. The soldiers hurriedly resisted the gate knife cart in front of the gate, and blocked the gate that was smashed open by the Han army's catapult.

It's a pity that the Han army used too many tricks. When they were about to rush to the camp gate, the Han army commando suddenly threw many primitive grenades one after another. Open, in the loud noise like thunder, ceramic shards flew randomly, and the soldiers of the Western Chu Army who were caught off guard suddenly fell into chaos again. The soldiers of the Han army behind took the opportunity to follow up, stabbed and hacked to death and injured several soldiers of the Western Chu army who were standing against the Saimen knife cart, and rushed into the West Chu army camp through the gap of the Saimen knife cart.

But it only stops here, because there are too many soldiers of the Western Chu Army, they rushed up quickly, surrounded and killed the soldiers of the Han Army who rushed into the camp, and once again withstood the saber cart, Leng Shengsheng used the front end The sharp knife carts blocked the Han army's charge. Even if the Han army soldiers threw primitive grenades again, they failed to blow up the crowd of Western Chu soldiers. It can be used to slam the door and spears to withstand the Western Chu Army's camp saber carts, while wrestling with the Western Chu Army soldiers, and when seeing an opening, he used an ax to hack the Western Chu Army's plug gate saber carts, fighting with the Western Chu Army. The sky is dark and the earth is dark.

Fortunately, at this time, 3000 soldiers from the rear of the Han army had already arrived. While building temporary bridges on the trenches with trench bridge vehicles, they urgently transported flying ladders across the trenches. Some brave soldiers of the Han army also took the opportunity to board the gap in the wall made by the catapult, condescending and fighting with the enemies in the camp.However, the performance of the Western Chu army was equally brave. Relying on the limited terrain and the Saimen knife cart to resist tenaciously, they did not lose the wind for a while, and did not give the Han army soldiers any chance to enter their own barracks.

When the middle gate was deadlocked, the catapult team of the Han army also began to violently bombard the right gate of the enemy camp. Heavy stones continued to fall near the right gate of the Western Chu army, smashing the soldiers of the Western Chu army who could not avoid it. Splashing, brain bursting, screaming continuously, and constantly smashing gaps in the camp of the Western Chu Army, and quickly smashed down the Western Chu Army's archery tower above the right door, which greatly weakened the defense of the Western Chu Army's right door strength.

"Quick! Quick! Quickly load the rocks! Try to aim for me, and you must smash open the right door of the Xichu army's bandit army for me as soon as possible. It's getting late, and we have to smash down the left door of the Xichu army's bandit army! Quick!"

Yang Bu's voice was almost hoarse, but fortunately, his hard work paid off. At this moment, a huge rock seemed to have eyes, and hit the middle of the right door of the Western Chu army, and immediately knocked the solid barracks open. It was directly smashed to pieces, and the soldiers of the Han army suddenly cheered, but the Western Chu army was full of regret and annoyance.Then, under the command of Xiang Kang, another Han army commando immediately launched a charge, and the Han army catapult team quickly adjusted its direction again, concentrating its firepower to bombard the left gate of the last camp gate of the Western Chu Army's southern camp.

"Hold it!" Cao Jiu yelled like crazy, "Send an order to the right door, no matter what the cost, be sure to hold it up! And the left door is the same, if it is smashed open by the trebuchet, You have to stand up to me at all costs! You must not let the Chinese thieves rush into our camp!"

The sun has mostly disappeared on the horizon, and there is not much time left for the Han army's catapult team. In order to smash open the left door of the Han army as soon as possible, at Yang Bu's request, the Han army sent to protect the catapult team The team also hastily sent out manpower to help pull the throwing arm and carry the stone bombs. Huge stones also flew up in the air and smashed towards the left door of the Western Chu Army one after another.

The disadvantage is that the road to advance is narrow, and the preparations of the Western Chu army are quite sufficient. The Han army commando who attacked the right gate of the Western Chu army was soon dragged into a stalemate by the Western Chu army, just like the middle gate battlefield, and they also failed. Make a breakthrough.And the catapult fleet of the Han army also fell into a vicious cycle of getting worse and worse with luck, and threw dozens of huge boulders one after another, but they couldn't hit the left door of the Chu army in China and the West, and couldn't open a new way to advance. It also gradually began to turn black, and it was about to fall into the night, and the armies of the two warring parties gradually lit torches.

Seeing this scene, Cao Jiu, who was commanding the battle on the high ground in the camp, was of course secretly happy in his heart, and kept thanking the heaven for his blessing, and shared the huge pressure for himself.Although Xiang Kang, who was fighting on the high ground outside the camp, was calm on the surface, he began to worry in his heart, and secretly said: "My luck will not be so bad, if it is dark, I still can't break through the left door of the Xichu thief army." , relying on only two routes to enter the army, the difficulty of this battle will be great."

"Fool! Go away! Let me do it!"

What was even more urgent was Yang Bu, an apprentice at the blacksmith shop in Shilingting back then. Seeing that he could not break open the left door of the Western Chu army, Yang Bu simply stepped forward and pushed away a gunner of the Han army who had just been loaded with stone bullets. Adjusting the height of the shot, he rushed to the back of the car and snatched the axe, and slashed down against the rope that was pulling the ladle, his eyes were red and he shouted: "Ah!"

A miracle happened, and the sky was about to be completely dark. After the stone bullet thrown by Yang Bu himself flew out, it happened to hit the top of the left door of the West Chu Army, and directly hit the left door of the West Chu Army from top to bottom. The gate was smashed, the barracks opened wide, the soldiers of the Han army cheered again, the soldiers of the Western Chu army screamed in despair, Yang Buze, who had not rested for three days and two nights, laughed, and then sat down on the ground, He lay down on his back with his legs spread out, and then fell asleep on the battlefield where people were shouting and screaming.

"Kill!"

The third commando of the Han army, which had been prepared for a long time, shouted to charge, and rushed towards the left gate of the Western Chu army like a torrent, but Cao Jiu, who was on the high ground in the camp, was so angry that he drew his sword to the ground and roared: "The order is here! Army, guard the gate of the camp! No matter who it is, who takes a step back without authorization, it will be executed immediately!"

The three camp gates on the south side of the Western Chu Army's camp were smashed open by the Han Army's catapults. The Han Army immediately had a lot more tactical options. Xiang Kang hurriedly got up and rushed to the edge of the high ground to look around hard, looking for the main attack direction of his own army. At the same time, the catapult team of the Han army can also free up their hands, use the remaining stone bombs to bombard the camps and fortresses of the Western Chu army, and try their best to share the pressure for the infantry attacking the fortifications. The dense formation of soldiers of the Western Chu Army caused huge casualties.

In the end, the Han army commando still made progress at the middle gate of the enemy camp. With unremitting efforts and after paying a considerable price, the Han army commando first seized the bases on both sides of the enemy camp's middle gate. On the high ground of the wall, condescendingly smashed the enemy behind the door with stone and gray bottles prepared by the Western Chu Army. The soldiers of the Han army also took the opportunity to rush forward, slashing and killing the enemies behind the other saimen knife carts, and then overturned the front of a saimen knife cart to the ground, finally opening a road to enter the camp. The generals and soldiers of the Han army rushed into the camp cheering, but the Western Chu army had no choice but to hurry up and block the advance of the Han army with a dense formation.

Judging from the chaos of the torches and the sound of killing, Xiang Kang judged that there was an opportunity to take advantage of the middle gate. Xiang Kang didn't dare to waste any more time, so he immediately sent someone to order Zhang Zhong to lead the army to attack the middle gate of the enemy camp, and arranged for Long Qie to lead the rear army to follow up early. Cooperate with the heavy armored soldiers of the Han army to rush into the enemy camp.

After receiving the order, Zhang Zhong, a fierce general of the Han army, also did not dare to hesitate. He hurried forward with [-] heavy armored soldiers of the Han army equipped with steel helmets and armor, and rushed forward on foot to attack the middle gate of the South Camp of the Western Chu Army. The soldiers of the team were also very smart, and hurriedly gave way as much as possible to let the heavy armored soldiers come forward. At the same time, the soldiers of the Han army who were attacking by the ants roared and stepped up their offensive again, attacking the Western Chu army's base position with all their strength, and the Western Chu army on the wall. The soldiers fought so hard that the sky was dim and the earth was dark.

Finally, after passing through the crowded crowd, the slow-moving heavy armored soldiers of the Han army still rushed to the gate of the Western Chu army's camp. The swords and swords also stabbed like a violent storm, but the heavy armored soldiers of the Han army did not panic and ignored the enemy's attack at all. They raised the steel knife to slash, and raised the steel gun to stab randomly. Tricks.

As a result, it goes without saying that the bronze weapons generally equipped by the soldiers of the Western Chu Army are of course very difficult to cause any damage to the heavy armored soldiers of the Han Army who are all wearing steel armor. There is no way to penetrate the steel armor of the heavy armored soldiers of the Han army.On the contrary, every knife slashed by the heavy armored soldiers of the Han army can easily cut off the arms of the soldiers of the Western Chu army, smash the bones and necks of the soldiers of the Western Chu army, and every shot that is stabbed can also directly pierce the soldiers of the Western Chu army. The crude leather armor on the soldiers caused fatal injuries to the soldiers of the Western Chu Army, and also chopped down and stabbed the enemies on the opposite side one after another, and kept moving forward to seize the space in the camp.

"It's the iron armored soldier of the Han thief! The iron armored soldier who can't be killed!"

Similar shouts have been heard one after another among the crowd of the Western Chu Army, which has further shaken the morale of the soldiers of the Western Chu Army. The morale of the officers and soldiers of the Western Chu Army was already severely depressed because of drinking water poisoning and the camp gate was directly smashed open. The heavy armored soldiers of the Han army, who were famously fearful during the war, were of course even more flustered by the soldiers of the Western Chu army. The armored soldiers took the opportunity to advance step by step, seizing more and more space in the camp.

When all the five hundred heavy armored soldiers of the Han army led by Zhang Zhong rushed into the enemy camp, the Western Chu army had no hope of regaining the middle gate position. The heavy armored soldiers of the Han army fighting in groups were like a group of humanoid tanks. Rampage in the Western Chu army camp, invincible, killing the infantry of the Western Chu army, howling ghosts and wolves, fleeing continuously, and the Han army commandos behind also took the opportunity to swarm into the camp, helping the heavy armored soldiers of the Han army seize more space in the camp.At the same time, the other Han army soldiers who were encouraged also succeeded one after another, rushing up the enemy's camp wall one after another, driving the frightened enemies off the base, gradually connecting them together.

Then, Long Qie also led the rear army of the Han army to launch a charge, and with the help of the heavy armored soldiers of the Han army, he quickly and directly entered the enemy camp, and during the period, he kept throwing primitive grenades with amazing intimidating effects to confuse the enemy, taking the opportunity With the whole chaos, the Western Chu army was defeated and retreated steadily, and the number of troops entering the camp was quickly expanded to thousands of people.

Seeing this situation on the high ground in the camp, all the civil and military soldiers of the Western Chu Army closed their eyes in pain, all of them understood that the camp of their own army was doomed to fail, and the fall of the camp was basically a foregone conclusion.Although Cao Jiu knew this very well in his heart, he was unwilling to be reconciled, and shouted at Gong Ao: "Gong Ao, take your army, no matter what, we must drive all the Han bandit troops out of the camp and save us. camp!"

Gong Ao is also considered a fierce general, even though he knew that the hope was slim, he still clasped his fists and agreed without hesitation, and immediately rushed back to his army, leading the Western Chu army reserve team to launch a counterattack to the middle gate, Cao Jiu shouted again: "Order all the armies to defend their respective positions with all their strength, and those who dare to retreat without authorization will be killed immediately!"

The soldiers on the left and right agreed, and immediately scattered to the various places in the camp to deliver orders. Cao Jiu also closed his eyes and said to himself: "God bless you, please help me guard the camp. If the Chinese bandits only attack once, my camp will be destroyed." I don't have the face to go back to see the king."

At this moment, the battle in the camp has also reached a fever pitch. The soldiers of the Han army are like a tide, constantly rushing into the camp of the Western Chu Army through the open middle gate of the enemy camp. It was as chaotic as the cooked rice porridge, and soldiers of the two armies were fighting desperately with red eyes everywhere. The spears and swords kept piercing through the human body, bringing out strings of hot blood. Super arms, blood spray and white brains are constantly splashing, soldiers on both sides are constantly howling and falling, the dead and injured appear one after another every second, and the number is more than one or two.

At this time, the superiority of the individual soldiers of the Han army has finally been brought into play. Even if they are red-eyed and their heads are flushed with boiling blood, the soldiers of the Han army, mostly veterans, can still make clever evasive actions. Dodge the enemy's stabbing and hacking weapons, and at the same time make a quick counterattack, using the best weapons left by Qin Shihuang and Qin II to bring death or serious injury to the enemy.However, the soldiers of the Western Chu Army with too many recruits were completely opposite. Many recruits only knew how to hack and kill. Not enough, was rushed back one after another by the Han army, and was soon forced to retreat to the camp area.

What's more terrible is that at this time, the soldiers of the Western Chu Army are still suffering from poisoning reactions. Many Western Chu soldiers who drank the poisonous water have unbearable abdominal pain, dizziness, and even vomiting. In front of the soldiers of the Han army, they were like lambs waiting to be slaughtered, and they were easily killed by the soldiers of the Han army.Affected by this, the morale of the Western Chu Army inevitably became even more flustered, gradually showing signs of collapse.

At this time, Gong Ao had also brought the Western Chu Army reserve team to help the battle, but unfortunately, as soon as the Western Chu Army reserve team arrived at the scene, they directly encountered the most difficult heavy armored soldiers of the Han Army. What is even more unfortunate is that in order to boost morale, Gong Ao still took the lead and rushed to the front. Together with his personal troops, he became the first reserve team of the Western Chu Army to encounter the heavy armored soldiers of the Han Army.

"There are big fish!"

The conspicuous armor and dazzling cloak on Gong Ao's body, and the fact that he was riding a tall horse became a magnet, which immediately attracted the attention of the heavy armored soldiers of the Han army. With a loud roar, he was the first to rush towards Gong Ao, who was surrounded and protected by his own soldiers. The standard-bearer behind him followed, and the heavy armored soldiers of the Han army also immediately charged towards Gong Ao. "

"Rush forward! Kill this band of Han thieves!"

Because the heavy armored soldiers of the Han army did not have time to light the torches, in the chaotic night battle, Gong Ao not only failed to discover that the enemy on the opposite side was the heavy armored soldiers of the Han army who were known to be invulnerable, but also led his own soldiers to meet him. Trying to kill and disperse this group of Han infantry who don't know how to live or die, and get off to a good start to boost morale.so……

"It's the iron armored soldiers of the traitors!"

The screams of the soldiers in front made Gong Ao's heart skip a beat, and it also made Gong Ao, who had seen the strength of the heavy armored soldiers of the Han army, immediately change his face, and secretly groaned in his heart, "Oh no, why did you just meet this group of plague gods?"

No matter how much you complain, the Western Chu army is at a disadvantage at this time. If Gong Ao dares to turn around and run away, it will be strange if the Western Chu army does not collapse immediately. Therefore, Gong Ao has no choice but to rein in his horse and shout loudly Since the soldiers stepped forward, they tried in vain to pile up the heavy armored soldiers of the Han army with their superior numbers.

It's a pity that even relying on the number of people is useless. The heavy armored soldiers of the Han army, all composed of elites from hundreds of battles, relying on their superiority in equipment, not only killed the soldiers of the Western Chu army who swarmed in, crying and screaming, but also like a group of soldiers. Like a sharp knife, he kept stabbing at Gong Ao's position, and in a blink of an eye he was less than ten steps away from Gong Ao. Seeing helplessness, Gong Ao didn't care whether it would affect the morale of the army, so he turned his horse around quickly, preparing to run for his life the way he came.

Tonight's luck is obviously not on Gong Ao's side. With the light of the torches in the hands of the soldiers of the Western Chu Army, he saw Gong Ao turning around and trying to run away. First he handed the steel knife to his left hand, then grabbed a spear stabbed by a Western Chu soldier with his right hand, raised his leg and kicked the Western Chu soldier away, then ignored the enemy spear stabbed from the left, and threw Turning the tip of the spear he caught, he lowered his waist and raised his arms, and threw it towards Gong Ao with all his might, shouting, "Death!"

The spear flew out through the air, and the mortal man just stabbed at the back of Gong Ao's neck. Although the edge of the spear head was rubbed by the bronze armor Gong Ao was wearing, the spear tip flew upwards, and just pierced into the back of Gong Ao's neck , pierced his neck, and the spear tip came out of Gong Ao's mouth again, making Gong Ao unable to even scream, and with a sway of his body, he fell directly off his horse.

"The Communist general is dead!"

The cries of Gong Ao's soldiers were like a thunderclap, and quickly spread to the crowd of the Western Chu Army's reserve team. When they heard that the main general had died in battle, the morale of the West Chu Army's reserve team was in chaos, and countless soldiers ran away. , also suddenly collapsed.As a result, when he saw this situation on the high ground in the camp, Cao Jiu was of course furious, beating his chest and shouting loudly: "Common Opifu! How did you lead the soldiers? When you come back, this commander will never spare you!"

At this time, other Han troops had also broken through the left and right gates of the Western Chu Army, rushing into the Western Chu Army camp one after another like two tides. The Chu army crowd was also lit up with tents everywhere, and the Han army soldiers who launched the main attack from the middle gate were like a rainbow, advancing directly towards the central camp of the Western Chu army. Cao Jiu roared and roared on the high ground in the camp. , but it didn't have any effect, and he could only watch the Han army gradually approaching his Chinese army camp...

"Da Sima, we can't keep our camp. Prepare to retreat to Puyang City to defend the city."

Kuai Che's kind suggestion earned Cao Jiu a heavy slap in the face, and Cao Jiu roared like thunder, "Shut up! I promise to live and die with the camp! If the camp cannot be kept, I will never survive alone! "

After the roar, Cao Jiu straightened his armor and said loudly, "Order all the Chinese troops to defend the Chinese army's camp. Even if they die, they must not embarrass our Western Chu army!"

Kuai Che lowered his head helplessly, and secretly said: "Although he is still an upright man, it is a pity that, like the King of Western Chu, he is a useless and brave man."
