Chapter 1295 Bone-strengthening Heroic Soul
The Jie army on the water probably didn't expect that this night attack, which they regarded as a top secret, would be seen by the Jin army in advance, and they put on a posture on the shore, so there was obviously some confusion in the approaching ship formation with hysteresis.

But soon, behind the Jie army that had not been covered by the fire, there was a violent sound of flags and drums, overwhelming all the noise on the shore and on the water, and ordered the soldiers to attack.

But in this moment of pause, the most important momentum of Jie Jun's night attack was gone.Especially when the speed of the boat has subconsciously slowed down, it will take a long time to fully increase the speed, but at the moment it is only miles away from the water's edge, it is obvious that there is no such opportunity.

On the other hand, the Jin army, due to Gao Zhong's cautiousness and even the grass and trees, had already summoned the soldiers of the third battalion in advance. Now these soldiers have all joined the front line and started to erect various large-scale defensive weapons. With the sound of drum orders, they all went out of the camp and lined up for battle.

At this moment, Gao Zhong had already climbed onto a pavilion with a wide view with his sword in hand. From this position, he could not only overlook the entire water camp, but also the changes in the enemy's formation.

With a limited field of vision, the surface of the water as far as he could see was covered with enemy boats. What he saw alone was as many as a hundred ships, and the commander's ship that gave the sound of drumming was still hidden in the darkness beyond his vision. .

In the Jie army formation, there are not many large warships. Most of them are small flying boats. For the scale of the encounter, Gao Zhong estimated that there are at least tens of thousands of enemies coming this time, because his heart is also very heavy, and he does not have the slightest joy of anticipating the enemy's opportunity.

"Get ready to throw stones, boom!"

As a military order was issued, the Jin army's front line suddenly became active. Numerous trebuchets crouched inside the line of defense like beasts devouring people. As the enemy warships approached even closer, there were crackling, cracking, falling, and roaring sounds on the water surface, and the original complete enemy ship array was smashed and riddled with holes!

Although the warships of the Jie army were not large in scale, they lacked flexibility. One reason was that there were too many ships, shoulder to shoulder, filling the river, and there was no room for dodging left and right.Second, although it is late autumn, the water potential is still good this year, and the current is still turbulent. These ships need to be connected by hooks and cables to avoid being carried away by the current when sailing at night.

As the distance between the two sides narrowed, the Jin army's throwing stones did not need to be deliberately aimed at all, and they hit the ships full of soldiers one after another. Although the chaos caused was not small, the actual casualties were not large. He was quickly salvaged and rescued by surrounding friendly ships.

The Jin army's stone throwing itself did not take killing the enemy as its primary task. It was mainly to disrupt the enemy's offensive rhythm and push the enemy out of the line of defense. After that, it was shot with bows and crossbows. They splashed towards the already chaotic enemy front, and under the light of the fire along the coast, you can see that there are arrows and wailing from the Jie army falling into the water.

The night attack was caught off guard. With the actions of the Jie army exposed in advance, with the Jin army waiting in full force, it can be said that the enemy's night attack this time has already had a failed start, and it has no meaning as it should have. .

Moreover, although Gao Zhong is not a famous general, he can also judge from various signs of the enemy army that the commander of the Jie army along the way is definitely not a veteran general with rich military experience.

At the very least, a night attack, especially on a battlefield with an open river line and a natural barrier, should have been a means of attacking more with less and winning with surprises. An important military town like Fufen must have well-established surroundings. No matter how weak the security arrangement is, even without Gao Zhong's prudent awareness, if you want to succeed in a surprise attack, you will face too many variables and it is not an appropriate target for a surprise victory.

As a result, the enemy army not only came straight to the 碻磝, but also a mighty crowd of tens of thousands of people. Once their whereabouts were revealed, the result was that they rushed forward, and the command of the enemy's response became dull and chaotic. The advantage has become a disadvantage.

The situation on the battlefield at this moment is a perfect portrayal of self-defeating. The enemy's front line was pelted with stones and arrows, and there were many people who fell into the water. There was neither organized charge and counterattack, nor flexible evasion adjustments. There seemed to be a large number of stacks, but they were completely exposed to the offensive of the Jin army. In the short quarter of an hour since the start of the war, at least more than 2000 casualties have occurred.

But these Jie troops are indeed brave. Although they suffered such a violent blow, they still did not flee on a large scale, and some people pulled strings to reflect, but the sparse arrow rain was not enough to form the lethality of the arrow rain. .

There were also some Jie soldiers who were lucky enough to rush through the area that was most severely hit, and rushed directly to the water camp of the Jin army. With a thick wooden shield covered with cowhide, they swung their knives and axes and hacked at the water gate erected by the Jin army. Rejection at the corner.

Seeing that Minato's refusal formation was destroyed, Gao Zhong's mood seemed to be tightly grasped. He even jumped off the pavilion where he was watching the battle, and stepped into the battle formation to control a crossbow. The enemy soldiers who stabbed: "Kill, kill these Hunu!"

At this moment, the enemy and the enemy are facing each other, and the situation is already very clear. It is nothing more than the Jin army using all defensive means to prevent the enemy from rushing to the water camp at the dock.

While manipulating the crossbow, Gao Zhong commanded his soldiers with a dignified expression: "Return to the city quickly, and report that the kerosene is here!"

Because there are many warships berthing in the Fufen water camp every day, and there are also a lot of material storage in the rear, in order to prevent accidents, many fire attack equipment are not special utensils, and they need to be fetched from Fufu City, which is more than ten miles away.

Although the enemy army is still being stubbornly resisted on the river, Gao Zhong is not optimistic about this. He knows that the combat effectiveness of the soldiers in the battalion is far inferior to those of Wang Shi's front-line soldiers. Such an astonishing lethality was mainly due to the various defense structures of the water battalion.

It is impossible for the enemy in front of us to break through the Jin army's defenses in a short period of time, but if the battle is delayed, as the guards are exhausted, even with all kinds of powerful equipment structures, their lethality will quickly decline. .Once the enemy forces approach the pier and a large-scale hand-to-hand battle occurs, Sujinjin will be in a dire situation tonight!
"Kill, let me continue to kill fiercely! I am lucky to survive tonight, and tomorrow I will praise Heluo and honor my ancestors!"

The slow-firing crossbow could no longer satisfy Gao Zhong's anxious mood. He directly changed into a strong bow, drew the string and knocked frequently, and shot at the approaching enemy army. He yelled loudly to boost morale, and his voice soon became hoarse. Difficult.

The guards on the front line also had expressions of panic on their faces. After hearing the general's call, they all tightened their lips and kept shooting at the enemy.

"One Jiatian, two Jiatian... I am worth the death now, and my children and grandchildren will have their own support! No wonder those pawns are fighting to kill the enemy one by one, such a desperate opportunity, such a desperate price..."

Many soldiers were killing the enemy, still muttering messy words in their mouths.Master Wang has his own method of counting meritorious deeds, and even the battalion is specially equipped with a master counting master who is directly under the general's mansion to watch the battle directly in the battle formation. Apart from the most simple beheading, many tactical requirements have been fulfilled. It will also be included in the Jia Gong and rewarded.

"Jin'er is full of strong bones, and the heroic posture of killing the enemy will be seen by the generals in the future!"

Although the staff officers and chief clerks assigned to the battalion were not responsible for killing the enemy themselves, they were all walking within the line of defense at the moment, roaring to encourage and boost morale.Once the line of defense collapsed and the sergeants fled, they would be the first to be punished for their crimes.Therefore, whenever these people face a battle, they behave more bravely and fearlessly than those battalion soldiers.

Between such attacks and killings, less than half an hour passed quickly, and the enemy's battle formation, which was just rushing blindly, finally had some obvious changes.

The enemy's frontline warships that were originally lined up were now pushed through a passage from the rear, revealing a relatively large warship. The wind was dancing, and it was obvious that the enemy's handsome ship was there.

The sound of the drums paused for a while, and the sound on the battlefield became silent, and then a hideous and burly figure in black armor appeared on the high platform of the big ship. With a wave of his arm, soldiers lifted the heavy boxes onto the high platform, The figure slashed the box with a knife, and the box was broken, and the dreamlike brilliance of pearls and jades splashed out from inside.

Seeing this scene, the pawns in the battle suddenly became depressed and tired. Although the roar on the big ship could not be transmitted to every corner of the noisy battlefield, they understood the meaning of it, so there was no need to say more.

As the drums sounded again, the Hu soldiers' charge became more violent.On the other hand, the counterattack of the Jin army on the shore became much softer than before. Many trebuchets were either damaged or unmanned.

It's not that they didn't try their best. After a fierce counterattack and resistance before, the enemy troops killed and wounded had already exceeded their multiples.The entire Fufu camp is very large, even if there is no battle in normal times, the guards with less than [-] soldiers are a little thin.

If it was an ordinary enemy, after causing such a large number of casualties, even if there was no military order to retreat, they would collapse and flee.But this time there were really too many enemies coming. Although they had killed so many, and the corpses and wreckage of the boats were all over the open river, there were still huge crowds behind them, which made them feel desperate.

The soldiers were physically exhausted, and even with strong weapons, it was difficult to exert matching lethality.Gao Zhong's expression was also gloomy at the moment, and there was no lack of self-blame in his heart. Recently, because of his nervousness, his orders were too strict, which also affected the maintenance of the soldiers' physical strength to a certain extent.

A truly excellent general needs to use his abilities precisely and strike a balance between prudence and laxity.Gao Zhong did not possess such qualities. Although he successfully predicted the enemy's opportunity and prepared to smash the enemy's night attack plan, it also caused a lot of unnecessary consumption of the soldiers' physical strength.

Even including himself, both arms are sore and swollen at the moment, and it is no longer enough to draw a bow.If the soldiers can always maintain sufficient physical strength, even if the camp fails to defend in the end, at least it can cause more damage to the enemy right now.

The enemy army charged again violently, but the atmosphere in the camp of the Jin army became much more gloomy.Gao Zhong raised his arm, slinging the bowstring, a look of pain flashed in his eyes, and then he said in a shy voice: "Gather to me, the armed battalion enters the battle, dismantle the weapons."

Once this order was issued, the surrounding area was silent. In order to prevent these powerful weapons from falling into the hands of thieves, once the camp defense was almost exhausted, dismantling the sabotage equipment was the most important task of the guard.And once this order is issued, it means giving up the most powerful attack method of the Jin army, and then either fighting bravely or retreating, in short, it is the last time to finish.

There were many soldiers and generals around. Hearing what Gao Zhong said, all of them looked gloomy. This is the initiative to pull out their claws and teeth. It is conceivable what will happen afterwards.Even though they were unwilling, they felt dejected when they saw many soldiers in the defense line who were so tired that they could not stand up.

"General, after that..."

Someone whispered at the corner of his mouth and asked.

At this moment, Gao Zhong's face suddenly became serious, he lifted the palm of the severed finger, and pressed the scar to his forehead, and then seemed to have strength poured into his body, he drew out his sword, and laughed with a heroic gesture: "In the past No matter how many false words there are, they are all boring, today the old man is going crazy, let the next generation see what true bravery is!"

In the Jin army camp, the fires on the defense line were extinguished one after another, and the entire front line was once again plunged into darkness.The sound of equipment being dismantled and collapsing continued to be heard from all over the defense line under the night, and those exhausted battalions also dragged their heavy bodies to the war zone where the general was located.

"The only child in the family, the old and the young are in the house!"

Behind Gao Zhong, the officers and soldiers in charge of the battalion uttered such roars, and suddenly there was a muffled weeping sound in the entire camp.

"Turn down your disgusting noises, and wait until Lao Tzu's heroic soul returns to Gaoyuan, and it's not too late to cry!"

Gao Zhong stomped his feet and roared, and at this time there were crackling and chaotic footsteps at the water gate behind him, and he roared again: "Hurry up, hurry up, tell Shen Hou, Gao Mou is heroic this night, and his life will be fought for a lifetime!" Hurry up! The thieves are powerful, be careful to surround and kill them!"

In the army, there are not many children who love each other, so if they make a gesture of touching their breasts at this time, it is a joke at the expense of their lives.Nearly a thousand soldiers withdrew from the camp, mounted their horses, and threw fire along the way. As the fire spread, they rushed along the road into the dark night.

More and more Hu soldiers rushed into the water camp, and the whole camp was full of noise. Gao Zhong stood in the camp, still listening to where the noise was the loudest, but after a while he suddenly grinned: "I'm going to die, why bother, Give them a big gift!"

After that, he waved his arms and shouted: "Withdraw, give up the camp, let's go to Cangying to defend!"

So the remaining [-] remaining soldiers in the battle formation all followed Gao Zhong and went straight to the barn camp behind under the cover of night.

After working hard for a long time and being blocked and killed in front of the water camp, the Jie soldiers thought that there would be a new round of hand-to-hand combat after they landed, but they didn't expect to rush to nothing, and they felt ecstatic for a while. Many soldiers who went ashore rushed directly into the Jin army's barracks regardless of the military orders.

The Jin army had plenty of supplies, and they had known for a long time that they would naturally have to make a big deal to capture a fortress like Fengfen.However, there are still a considerable number of Hu soldiers occupying the key points of the camp with the fastest speed, taking various facilities of the Jin army for their own use, and some of them are neatly armored, and they look like elite troops, and they start to sweep the camp. Search for traces of the enemy and wipe them out thoroughly.

If so, nearly half an hour later, although the soldiers of the Jin army gathered in the warehouse camp were also discovered, the enemy did not launch an attack immediately, but surrounded them in groups.At this moment, the commander of the Jie army finally landed on the pier.

It was a man in his thirties, with a bearded face but dark eyebrows. He was Shi Xuan, Duke Pingyuan of Jie Zhao and Shi Hu's second son.Standing with his sword supported, Shi Xuan listened to the flattery and flattery of the generals gathered around him, saying that since the founding of the country, there has never been such a grand victory.

Xingguo is the reign name that Shihu changed to Xiangguo after he became the master of Xiangguo. Hearing what the generals said, Shi Xuan's bearded and dark face was also filled with joy. After being beaten in the south and fled north in embarrassment, the country of Jie has been at a disadvantage in the confrontation between the north and the south until now, and has not won such a brilliant victory in an important pass.

After hearing that after searching the camp, there was nothing to be gained, and at the same time, the Jin army was still guarding the warehouse, Shi Xuan's face became gloomy again, and he personally led the crowd to the besieged Jin army's besieged division. He thought for a while Afterwards, someone shouted: "Who is the general of the Jin army? The few and weak people hinder my vast army. Although they are stupefied and do not know the destiny, the victory lies in their strength. If you go out of the camp and be bound, you can avoid death!"

He responded with several curses: "Shi Jilong is the illegitimate son of my family's lowly servant girl!"

The sleepy division of the Jin army seemed to have made an agreement, such a vicious curse, as uniform as shouting slogans, echoed loudly in this piece of heaven and earth,

When Shi Xuan heard the scolding, he was furious immediately, and shouted loudly: "Kill me, and no one will be left alive! That thief general, I will peel his flesh!"

The Jie army immediately launched an attack, and more than ten thousand people surrounded this place and advanced all the way.Although the Jin army inside was exhausted, the resistance was equally fierce.Shi Xuan followed the army and walked slowly into the formation. He saw that the mud all over the ground was poured with blood. Even though he himself was a brutal and vicious person, he was still frightened by the tenacity of the Jin army.

With such a chance of victory locked in, the battle continued until dawn. Although the Jin army was divided and scattered, they still tenaciously guarded seven or eight warehouses.

At dawn, the Jin army on the opposite side finally shouted to express their willingness to surrender.Shi Xuan didn't want to pay attention to this at first, but some generals reported that the loss was really heavy this time, and there was not much income from the search camp, presumably the Jin army's heavy cargo was still stored in these warehouses.

"The dog thief came to be bound because he had a hard time? Forget it, let him live, I will skin his skin raw and give it to the southern thief Shen Weizhou to make a cloak!"

Shi Xuan grinned grimly, ordered to suspend the attack, and let those trapped Jin troops come out and surrender.And he was also surrounded by heavy soldiers, and walked slowly towards the warehouse where the general of the Jin army was.After a little weighing in his mind, he still decided to restrain his viciousness for the time being, and to show it a little bit first, and found out more from his mouth about the defense arrangements of the Jin army after the war, for the army to invade later.

After the sound of fighting stopped, surrounded by hundreds of people from the Jin army, the bloody Jin army general Zhu Zhujian stood at the door of the barn. As the surrounding soldiers dispersed, Shi Xuan and Gao Zhong saw each other.

Seeing Gao Zhong's blood-stained appearance, Shi Xuan's eyes flashed with sternness, and he was about to make someone shout out from a distance, when he suddenly heard the opposite Jin general shouting: "Jilong, the lord of beasts, is also worthy of controlling me!" Jin'er strong man!"

Following this roar, suddenly thick smoke billowed from the warehouse behind him.

Seeing this scene, Shi Xuan knew that he had been tricked, but compared to the life and death of Gao Zhong and other disabled people, he felt more distressed about the property that was about to be burned, and hurriedly shouted: "Quickly kill the remaining thieves and save the goods! "

Although there are some goods in the warehouse, but the stock is not much. Instead, Gao Zhong had sent people from Fufen City to ignite and deflagrate. They were not used at the pier before, and they are all stored in the warehouse they guarded. in these warehouses.

Seven or eight fires were ignited together, and they rushed out of the warehouses in an instant. Gao Zhong stood at the door of the warehouse, watching the ferocious enemy soldiers continue to rush towards this place, but before those soldiers could get close, the others However, the figure of the man was already submerged by the tongues of flames that sprang up from behind, and those Hu soldiers were hindered by the fierce heat wave, and all retreated.

"Life is a strong bone, and death is a heroic soul! If you go to the underworld, you will destroy the souls of the world's dragons!"

The call signs faded, and the flames spread.
