Dynasty Conquest

Chapter 599 The Battle of Raven Hill
woo woo woo woo--

The resounding sound of the horn resounded through the mountains, and the [-] Hanhai soldiers marched towards the Raven Ridge with neat steps, the flags were flying, the steps were sonorous, and the air was filled with a chill.

In order to seize time, Du Fei personally led five cavalry divisions to try to bypass the back of Hezhong City from the Duyaling line, surround the Nanchuan Army troops in Hezhong City, and then annihilate them.

But what Du Fei didn't expect was that the little Raven Ridge blocked his troops for a day and a night, and Du Chong, the only precious son he had placed high hopes on, died in battle on the mountain. Du Chong's death completely angered the commander. Guan Du Fei, what he wants to do most now is to flatten Raven Ridge to avenge his son.

In order to take revenge, Du Fei no longer cared about the fact that his men were all cavalry, he ordered all the cavalry to dismount and attack the mountain, and must bloodbath Raven Ridge.

Compared with the intensity of Hanhai No.11 Cavalry Division's attack on Raven Ridge with [-] troops before, the angry Du Fei directly mobilized [-] troops, and he wanted to wipe out the Nanchuan Army on the mountain with all his might.

After the battle, Chu Ming, the commander of the No.16 Banner Regiment in Nanchuan, no longer had the youthfulness and panic he had before. He stood on the mountain and looked down. The people in the vast sea were advancing towards Raven Ridge. His eyes looked to the south, The reinforcements did not move at all.

"Are you really going to die here today?" A trace of determination flashed across Chu Ming's young face. Even if all the members of the Sixteen Banners were killed in battle, they would have to break a few teeth of the Hanhai people to let them know that Nanchuan The spirit of the army's bright sword.

Chu Ming took a deep breath, stretched out his hand and waved back, the messenger immediately understood, all the Nanchuan soldiers who had been resting on the western hillside all entered their preset positions, this time Chu Ming did not leave a reserve team, not because he did not want , but it is really stretched.

Although the Sixteen Banners regiment has a full staff of 3000 soldiers, about [-] soldiers have been reduced after previous battles, and the remaining [-] soldiers have little hope of defending Raven Ridge under the attack of the [-]-Han Navy. Ming had to go all out and mobilize all the troops to the front line.

The [-] Hanhai soldiers came densely and densely, and there were figures climbing up all over the mountains. The entire eastern hillside had been burned bare by the fire, so at a glance, the deployment of Hanhai soldiers could be seen at a glance.

"Raise the shield!" Seeing that the Hanhai archers were ready to cover and shoot, Chu Ming shouted while putting the shield in front of him.

"Hoo!" Not long after Chu Ming's words fell, a large black rain of arrows came towards the top of the mountain, nailed to the shield and made a clicking sound, and the wooden shield was pierced by arrows with strong penetrating power. , Chu Ming could feel the sharp murderous aura above the sharp arrow.

Most of Han Haibing's arrows are not strong because they are shot upwards. Even if an arrow hits a Nanchuan soldier, it is not fatal, it just penetrates the armor. So after a few rounds of arrows, the mountains are like hedgehogs. It was full of arrows, but the casualties of Nanchuan soldiers were not very large.

Hanhai's soldiers struggled to climb up the mountain under the cover of arrows, but their riding boots were very unfavorable in such a rugged mountain. From time to time, some people slipped on the soles of their feet, making them unable to stand firmly. However, they were so numerous that they spread like ants. Full field of view, giving a strong visual impact.

Facing the constantly climbing Hanhai soldiers, the Nanchuan soldiers guarding the mountains looked serious and tightly grasped the weapons in their hands, and the tense atmosphere spread.

"Light it up!" Seeing that the Hanhai soldiers were getting closer, Chu Ming waved his hand, and the soldiers holding the torches strode forward. With a bang, the huge fireball filled with kerosene was already blazing.

The rolling stones and rolling logs on the mountains are very expensive and have been exhausted. The Sixteen Banners Regiment has not many crossbowmen, and they can't do much damage to the Hanhai soldiers. So after the officers figured out a way, these fireballs made of grass and trees became their new weapon. weapons.

Fireballs are originally made of grass and trees, with simple materials, and then a layer of kerosene is poured on the outside. When they meet a little spark, they will become a scorching fireball. spectacular.

"Push it down!"

Following Chu Ming's order, the soldiers used wood to exert force, and dozens of fireballs rolled from the mountain to the Hanhai soldiers who were climbing the mountain by the principle of gravity.

"My god!" Seeing the movement from above, Han Haibing, who was climbing with his head buried in his head, looked up and saw that the flaming fireball was tumbling towards him. He was so frightened that the souls of the dead immediately ran back one by one. , Afraid of being hit by a fireball, there was a sudden chaos on the hillside, with shouts and screams everywhere.

The scorching fireball rolled all the way down, and instantly smashed into the group of Hanhai soldiers. Countless Hanhai soldiers were hit. For a while, there were screams everywhere on the hillside, and some soldiers were directly burst by the fireball Devoured, turned into firemen one by one.

There are too many Hanhai soldiers, and the entire hillside is densely packed. Dozens of fireballs rolled all the way down, rolling out a groove of green smoke in the Hanhai soldiers. Wherever they passed, the Hanhai soldiers did not survive. There are countless people, and most of them are the chain reaction brought about by fear. The morale that was originally high was immediately let down by such a toss.

Seeing his companions burnt beyond recognition, with no bones left, the screaming Han Haibing was also frightened at the moment, looking at the top of the mountain, not daring to continue climbing.

"Rush up! Kill them all!" Seeing that the morale had dropped, the Hanhai officers immediately drew out their sabers and yelled, and the Hanhai soldiers began to charge towards the mountains again in a swarm.

"Light it up again!" Chu Ming sneered, the more than 200 fireballs they made were enough for Han Haibing to drink a pot.

Burning fireballs kept rolling down the mountain, Han Haibing screamed, and the whole hillside was wailing. Seeing Han Haibing being beaten like this, the morale of the defenders on the mountain was immediately boosted, and the worry about the large number of Han Haibing After calming down, one by one launched attacks in an orderly manner according to the order.

After all, the number of fireballs is still limited. After causing huge damage to the Hanhai soldiers, the Nanchuan soldiers had to draw out their swords to prepare for hand-to-hand combat, and the Hanhai soldiers rushed to the top of the mountain after continuous blows.

The two sides soon engaged in hand-to-hand combat, and countless sharp swords slashed at each other's heads. Blood rained and screams continued. The entire mountain was crowded with fighting troops, and countless corpses rolled down the hillside. , while the Hanhai soldiers continued to advance towards Raven Ridge.

The clash of swords and swords made the sound of gold and iron clashing, the armor stained with blood was cut by sharp blades, red knives entered and white knives exited, and the cruel war was vividly displayed. In such a chaotic battlefield, life is so fragile and vulnerable.

Facing the continuous onslaught of Hanhai soldiers, the five hills on Duya Ridge changed hands in a short period of time. Chu Ming led the officers and soldiers of the Sixteen Banners Regiment to retreat towards the heights of Duya Ridge.
