Dynasty Conquest

Chapter 86 Battle of Sanggan River
On July 29, [-] of the western lunar calendar, in the early morning, the Dynasty Army began to attack the Xingtu Army, and the Battle of Sanggan River broke out.

The first to attack was the trebuchet troops of the dynasty army, and huge stones weighing hundreds of catties were placed on the huge trebuchets.

"Launch!" Following the officer's order, hundreds of trebuchets creaked, and hundreds of catties of boulders crossed the Sanggan River in a graceful arc, roaring straight to the Xingtu Army's position on the north bank.

Hearing the sound of thunder breaking through the air, the Xing Tujun in the trench on the north bank looked up for no reason. In their eyes, the huge boulder that was coming was rapidly growing in size——

"It's a trebuchet! Run!" An officer recognized the flying boulder and shouted mournfully.

"Boom!" The earth trembled, and a huge boulder weighing hundreds of kilograms slammed into a parapet. Suddenly, four or five Xingtu soldiers who had no time to run away suddenly screamed and turned into meat sauce before they had time to utter. The earth wall collapsed directly, and the mud flew.

"Boom!" The boulder fell like thunder, the ground shook, countless boulders fell, and there was a constant howl in the battlefield, just like the boulders of the heavenly generals are like reminders. Every stone will fall, and someone will die tragically. In the dense attack range Inside, Xing Tujun had nowhere to hide.

"Quick! Withdraw! Withdraw!" Lin Chuan roared loudly as he saw boulders falling and Xing Tubing being thrown flying. His heart was bleeding.

Under the attack of the boulder, the fences, parapets, and tents built by Xing Tujun were torn apart like paper, and turned into ruins.

The boulder was still raging, and the Xingtu army's position was in a mess, the soil was flying, and the panicked Xingtu soldiers dropped their weapons and battle flags, and ran back desperately, hoping to escape the blow of this dead boulder.

But the roaring boulder was huge and powerful, as if it had eyes, and knocked the fleeing Xingtu soldiers to the ground, and the dead Xingtu soldiers were smashed deep into the soil, turning into a pile minced meat.

"Sir, be careful!"

With a pounce, Sith threw Lin Chuan far away and fell into the ditch next to him. With the loud bang, as if an earthquake had occurred, the place where Lin Chuan was just standing was hit hard by a huge boulder , that earthen wall has turned into powder shy, has become a ruin.

When Lin Chuan saw the ruins, his back felt cold. If he was hit, he would definitely not survive.

"Are you all right, brother?" Lin Chuan stretched out his hand and asked Sith, who had a face full of dirt.

"Bah, bah, it's okay." Sith spat out the dirt in his mouth, and cursed: "If we also have trebuchets, blast these dogs to death!"

The boulders became more and more dense and fierce. Under the ravages of the boulders, there was no way to avoid them. They could only run backwards, hoping to escape his strike range.

Countless Xingtu soldiers fled in panic. The originally strong defense line has been turned into ruins, scattered weapons, battle armor, and corpses can be seen everywhere.

The rumbling boulder bombardment lasted for less than half an hour, and the position Xing Tujun spent several days building had turned into a white field, covered with boulders, like a boulder forest.

"Enter the line of defense and prepare to fight!" Seeing that the bombardment of the boulder stopped, Lin Chuan loudly ordered to enter the position.

Those Xingtu soldiers who fled one after another were already terrified at the moment. As they walked, they looked at the sky cautiously, fearing that the boulder would fall again.

During this brief bombardment of trebuchets, hundreds of Xingtu soldiers fell on the ground forever, blood mixed with mud, and mutilated corpses could be seen everywhere. Lin Chuan endured the anger in his heart, held his sword, and personally Went to the forefront.

"Be careful to avoid arrows!"

"Hold up the shield, don't hang up before touching the enemy!"

…………

After the sudden catapult bombardment just now, the officers of the Xingtu army held up their swords and kept loudly reminding the Xingtu soldiers what they should do next.

The Xing Tu army is not rich, and some of the soldiers can't even get together the battle knives, so let alone the luxury of shields. Most of the soldiers are holding dismantled door panels, dustpans and other things in their hands. But it's better than nothing.

The trenches that were originally connected together have been blocked by stones, the breast wall has collapsed, the fence has become a pile of broken wood, and the entire defense line is in a mess. The Xingtu soldiers are close together, relying on their bodies to form a defense line, waiting for the dynasty army to attack. bombardment.

"Forward!" On the south bank, the trebuchets had just stopped raging, and the infantry of the Dynasty Army, like dumplings, entered the waist-deep Sanggan River under the order of the officer, and pressed towards the Xingtu Army's defense line.

The dynasty infantry held hands to prevent being washed away by the current, their eyes were sharp and fierce, and the swords in their hands were like snow.

After tens of thousands of infantry entered the Sanggan River, the dynastic army's giant crossbow appeared on the south bank, and thousands of archers inserted their arrows into the soil in front of them, preparing to shoot.

The imperial army's infantry had just arrived in the middle of the Sanggan River, and their archers were ready.

"Archer, get ready!"

"shooting!"

Following Wengdi's voice, a large black arrow formed a black curtain and enveloped the Xingtu army on the north bank. The roaring sound of piercing the air made people tremble, like a spell of death.

The dull and dense arrows pierced the sky and enveloped Xing Tu's army. Arrows poured down like raindrops, and Xing Tu soldiers who were not well protected kept screaming and fell to the ground, turning into hedgehogs in an instant.

The arrow pierced through the broken parapet, and escaped the bombardment of the boulder with the creaking sound. Under the shooting of the sharp arrow, the parapet could no longer support it and collapsed.

The arrow shot on the boulder, making a piercing jingling sound, the arrow was redirected and shot into the soil, and the soil suddenly flew up.

"Shhhhhhhh!" The crossbow arrows with thick forearms came through the air, causing a series of screams. Simple shields couldn't block the powerful crossbow arrows at all. The shield was smashed, and the soldiers were penetrated by the crossbow arrows. With blood flying backwards, it hit the boulder.

With more and more arrows, the simple shields are constantly being smashed, accompanied by desperate screams, Xingtu soldiers are constantly being shot, and there are bursts of blood mist. This is war, cruel and indifferent.

Lin Chuan leaned tightly in the trench, with the shield raised above his head, and when he looked up, he could see the sharp arrow protruding through the shield, and his arm was numb from the shock.

Under the cover of overwhelming arrows, the infantry of the Dynasty Army had already crossed the Sanggan River and stepped onto the shallows. They jumped over the corpses of the comrades who died last night, and rushed towards the Xing Tu Army formation.

In order not to accidentally injure their own people, the arrows of the Chao Dynasty Army had already started to shoot in depth, and Lin Chuan and the others were able to take a breather.

"My lord, they are coming up!" A Xing Tu soldier shouted loudly.

Lin Chuan stood up from the trench and looked out. As far as he could see, it was all red. It was the red armor of countless dynasties.

Sith raised his sword and ordered loudly: "Archers are ready, shoot freely!"

"The crossbow is ready, launch!!"

Under the command of the officers, the archers and soldiers operating the giant crossbows in the Xing Tu Army's position started long-range strikes.

Compared with the overwhelming arrows of the Chao Dynasty Army, the number of Xingtu Army's arrows is obviously not enough, but because of the short distance, they are strong enough.

With the sound of puffing arrows piercing into the flesh, the dynastic army running at the front was shot through their battle armor, and the arrows shot into their bodies fiercely, and they fell to the ground screaming.

　Please recommend, collect and bow.
