Chapter 673
Chapter 673
While Huang Shaowen was still struggling with his control over the soldiers' battalion, the rebels had already formed their formation and began to attack.
At this time, everyone in the rebel army felt uneasy and a little bit excited.
Generally speaking, to break out of an encirclement, you always find a place where the enemy's troops are weak.
But they are different, they break out directly from the enemy's side!
It’s hard to say whether they will all be annihilated, but this decision is super cool! !
What if the breakout is successful?
Can this be called a breakthrough?
This is called our army to annihilate the enemy head-on! !
As long as you make it out alive, that's bragging rights.
Of course, the commander-in-chief and the others don’t want to break out of the encirclement head-on, but they have no choice!
They were tightly surrounded, but the front was actually the best place to break out.
Moreover, their breakthrough was not to defeat these armies, but to break out of Daqian's rule and enter the area controlled by the White Lotus Sect after defeating these armies before they could react.
The commander-in-chief and the others had no doubts about whether they and others could fight their way out head-on.
What they were worried about was that the enemy would react and block the Jiangnan camp along the road. That would be a huge trouble. They would be surrounded and annihilated accidentally! !
Therefore, after the formation was completed, the commander-in-chief gave the order directly.
"attack!"
The army marched forward in formation, with Zhang Meng at the front, 51 heavy armored soldiers at the back, and 150 auxiliary heavy armored soldiers on both wings, forming a triangle and walking step by step towards the Daqian military camp.
Their speed is not fast, and they need to deliberately suppress their speed to maintain the stability of the military formation.
It's not that their military formation is unskilled, but that they need to take care of the rebels in the rear. There were quite a few rebels who entered the city during this period, thousands of them, including the old, weak, sick and disabled.
And this breakout must be with them.
In addition, the young and strong people are not trained enough, and the military formation is prone to chaos if the speed is too fast.
Therefore, every step of Zhang Meng and the others was done neatly and firmly on the ground to increase their power, intimidate the enemy and at the same time enhance their own morale.
"Bang, bang, bang!"
With the sound of footsteps and slogans, thousands of people moved in unison, so much so that the earth trembled with every step forward.
The thumping sound of footsteps on the ground is like a thunderous war drum that oppresses the enemy's heartstrings.
"call out!"
The pressure put on them by the rebels was too great, especially those soldiers who directly faced the two hundred heavy-armored soldiers of the rebels. They relaxed their hands on the bowstring due to nervousness.
As an arrow flew unexpectedly, the other archers couldn't help but loosened their hands on the bowstring, and then quickly opened their bows to nock the arrow and shoot it out.
"Shhhhhhh!"
In an instant, hundreds of arrows were flying towards Zhang Meng and the others, one after another.
"Bastard, who shot the arrow?"
The commander-in-chief shouted anxiously that the rebel army was only a hundred steps away from them, and it was impossible to break such armor with arrows now.
Not only that, a group of archers were nervous and shooting arrows continuously, which also consumed a lot of physical and arm strength.
Originally, it was possible to shoot through the enemy's armor in fifty steps, but now the arm strength is greatly consumed. It may not be possible to shoot accurately within thirty or twenty steps, and even the accurate shot may not be able to penetrate the enemy's armor.
So no wonder the commander-in-chief is anxious!
"Pfft!"
An archer was killed with one blow, and the general shouted: "Anyone who shoots arrows without orders will be killed without mercy!"
For a moment, the blood brought back these people's fear of Shangguan, and they immediately stopped firing arrows.
But they stopped shooting arrows, so it was the rebels' turn to start shooting arrows.
The bows used by the rebels were actually the same as those used by Daqian soldiers, and their power was similar. Only those commanders who had received support from the Han army would use iron-tied bows.
Therefore, the enemy's physical strength was exhausted for a while, and it was difficult for the arrow to shoot a hundred steps away, but the rebels were not.
Therefore, as the rebels fired arrows, arrows fell from the sky like raindrops.
These arrows are not aimed at the enemy's sword-shielders and spearmen, but at the enemy's archers.
Because at this distance, the ones who do the most harm to each other are often the archers.
Just like Liu Wu in his previous life, when neither side had air superiority, the priority was to target the enemy's artillery.
"what!"
Along with the arrows of the rebels, the archers and other soldiers of Daqian screamed.
This is the function of whether to wear armor or not, and what kind of armor to wear.
At this time, Zhang Meng and the others had arrived only fifty steps away from Da Gan's military formation. However, seeing the huge casualties on their side, Da Gan's general couldn't help shouting any longer:
"Fire arrows, fire arrows, fire back!"
Under the order, Daqian's archers who could still shoot began to shoot arrows at Zhang Meng and the others, while the rebel archers shot at them.
"Ding ding dong!"
"what!"
The sound of arrows and armor, and the wails of those who were hit by arrows, echoed through each other.
"charge!"
Thirty steps away from the enemy, Zhang Meng shouted loudly, then rushed towards the Dagan army formation with a special sword.
The other soldiers did the same, holding Mo Dao and following Zhang Meng as they rushed forward quickly.
The distance of thirty steps is too close. Even if you are wearing heavy armor, it only takes a few breaths.
Zhang Meng was at the front, not caring about removing the spear that was stuck on his body. This kind of thing couldn't break his defense at all.
"Death to me!"
He shouted loudly, rushed to the right position with his spear, and slashed with his sword.
"Pfft!"
The sword struck like wood, and the enemy and his shield were split into two halves.
"Gudong!"
Such a bloody scene really frightened the Daqian soldiers nearby.
In addition, Zhang Meng was too tall and wore a ferocious mask on his face. The few Dagan soldiers closest to him were scared to death.
Well, I was really scared to the point of peeing, my feet were all wet, and I even forgot to resist!
"Whoever blocks me, die!"
Zhang Meng roared and raised the sword in his hand again.
"Mom!"
Just this time, these soldiers collapsed, put down their weapons in fear and ran backwards, or squeezed to both sides.
At this time, other heavily armored men also came over and struck with the Mo Dao. Although it did not have the power of Zhang Meng, the person who was hit died immediately.
"Escape!"
In an instant, these Daqian soldiers could no longer suppress the fear in their hearts and ran towards the rear, crying.
This is the power of a heavy armored soldier. No matter how much you use swords, guns, swords or halberds, I won’t even look at them. I only need to slash them with my sword and the enemy will collapse.
"Asshole, the supervising team comes forward!"
Although the commander-in-chief who was lagging behind saw it and was afraid in his heart, he understood that the military formation could not collapse. If it collapsed, he would die.
Unfortunately, his loud command was too conspicuous.
"call out!"
A speeding arrow knocked his helmet away, making him shrink his head and dismount from his horse.
"kill!"
Two hundred soldiers, led by Zhang Meng, also took the opportunity to step forward at this time.
"Mom!"
"Run away!"
As the second knife struck,
Military formations on the front line...
Completely collapsed! !
And the heavy armored warriors of Daqian at this time?
Ok,
Still wearing armor!
