Emperor of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 342 Huang Bingcheng Zi vs Xue Tong

The drums of war resounded through the sky like thunder, and the sound of killing shook the heaven and the earth. Li Songjun launched the most violent attack on the broken Jiangdong army like a scourge.

The Soochow Army relied on the camp to fight back, and the two sides launched a fierce fight, stabbing with knives and spears, and Li Song's advance was to step on the mountain of corpses and the sea of ​​blood.

The Jiangdong army bravely blocked the enemy's advance, and when one fell, another would fill in the gap, trying their best to buy time for Sun Quan to evacuate.

At this moment, one could see the prestige of the three generations of the Sun family in Jiangdong. Even if all these soldiers died in battle, they would never take a step back. These people were all soldiers loyal to the Sun family.

"Report! Report to the general! The first line of defense of our army was breached by the enemy. All the soldiers died in battle, and none of them surrendered." A soldier ran quickly and knelt down on one knee in front of Huang Bing and Cheng Zi. .

"Brother Cheng, the enemy has broken through the first line of defense and entered the barracks. Our army's second line of defense with [-] soldiers will face the enemy's attack directly. With the speed of the enemy's advance, I am afraid that they will be able to attack us soon. Here, what do you think we should do?" Huang Bing said, waving his hand to make the soldiers retreat, and the soldiers got up and left.

"What else can I do, the only way is to stick to it, as long as I can hold off the enemy for a moment longer, my lord will have more hope of returning to Jiangdong. Even if the battle ends in one soldier, I will never back down." Cheng Zi said.

After Huang Bing heard this, he didn't say anything. This was the last line of defense. The two of them were in charge of the last line of defense, composed of two thousand elite soldiers. If the enemy wanted to break through here, they had to step over them.

The fighting is still going on. A soldier in Li Song's army is reporting the situation to Zhang Liao, "Our army has broken through the enemy's first line of defense. The two generals, System and Xu Huang, have led the troops into the enemy's camp. Encountered the enemy's second line of defense, and the two sides are fighting."

In the Jiangdong Army camp not far away, the shouts of killing could be clearly heard. Zhang Liao was very dissatisfied with the advancing speed of the army.

What if Sun Quan escapes!It is necessary to break through the last two lines of defense in the shortest possible time, and now we are racing against time.

"Order! The Shenji Battalion is dispatched to test their strength, and the Shenji arrows are ready to be launched." Zhang Liao said.

A loud horn sounded, and Li Songjun retreated like a tide, which relieved the struggling Soochow Army. Although they didn't know why the enemy retreated, they would not waste the time they could take a breather. The enemy will launch a new offensive.

After Li Song exited the shooting range, the soldiers of the Shenji Battalion pushed out the Shenji Arrow, and the arrow flashed coldly in front of it, heading towards the enemy camp in front.

"Ignite!" an order!The soldiers lit the fuse at the back, burned the fuse in three seconds, ignited the gunpowder, and shot the gunpowder inside at the enemy, and the overwhelming rain of arrows covered the entire sky.

The God Machine Arrow, a weapon with a wide coverage, is good, but its disadvantage is that its moving speed is slow after all, and it takes time to refill. During this time, it is enough for the enemy to launch more than three attacks on our army.

The only advantage is that it can only be used for long-range attacks, and the gunpowder inside is afraid of getting wet, especially during the rainy season, the magic arrows cannot be used, and they are not as effective as bows and arrows.

"Attention, enemy attack! Stand up the shield!" The generals of the Jiangdong Army hastily raised their shields above their heads to defend against the rain of arrows falling from the sky.

"Boom! Boom!" Several explosions sounded, and a small gunpowder barrel was tied to the front end of the Shenji arrow. The moment the Shenji arrow shot out, the fuse on the tail of the arrow was ignited. Exploded the powder keg in front.

The enemy's shield was blasted, and the sound of explosions was endless!The enemy's second line of defense suffered heavy losses after the explosion!

Xue Tong and Xu Huang took advantage of the gap, broke through the enemy's second line of defense in a short while, and rushed to the last line of defense. Bobo attacked violently, trying to break through the enemy's obstacles in one fell swoop.

"Attention, the enemy's cavalry is coming up!" The trembling ground, like a thundering horse, rushed towards this side.

This is the last line of defense for Jiangdong's broken rear army. The ground in front of the defense line is covered with barbed caltrops. Behind the barbed caltrops are horse-repelling guns used to stop cavalry from charging.

The soldiers hid on both sides of the camp. Once the enemy broke through the obstacles in front, these tripping ropes could play a role.

In the rear, Huang Bing and Cheng Zi personally led the troops and set up a long spear array. In front of them, huge shields formed a shield wall. Each side was extremely thick, thicker than ordinary shields.

An elongated spear is stuck obliquely on the shield, and behind these are crossbowmen.

Li Songjun's cavalry came, took off the flying claws from the horses, and threw them at the carbine-repelling guns. The flying claws caught the carbine-repelling guns, and the cavalry stopped the running horses urgently in front of the barbed wire. stand up like a standing man.

The horse's hooves fell to the ground, and the cavalry turned the horse's head and ran behind, dragging the horse-repelling gun to sweep away the barbed wire on the ground, making it unable to play an effective role.

The cavalry behind crossed these, and headed towards Huang Bing and Cheng Zi. Huang Bing looked at the cavalry getting closer, raised his big hand and swung down fiercely. serious injury.

"Come on! Prepare the catapult and ballista! Eliminate them for me." Xue Tong looked at the blocked cavalry and ordered.

The trebuchet and ballista were pushed up. The soldiers stirred the capstan vigorously, put the stones in the spoon behind the trebuchet one by one, released the capstan, and the long arm of the trebuchet threw the stones to the ground. enemy.

"Touch! Touch!" Hundreds of flashing crossbow arrows shot towards the Jiangdong Army with a whistling sound. The Jiangdong Army was like a flat boat in a storm, which might be torn apart by the rainstorm at any time.

After several rounds of throwing, the enemy army in front of Xue Tong was in a mess, with heavy casualties, even so!Huang Bing and Cheng Zi still didn't retreat half a point.

Xue Tong and Xu Huang rode their horses forward a few steps, and said to Huang Bing and Cheng Zi, "I admire your courage very much. I am Xue Tong, a general under the prime minister's command. How dare you come out and fight me."

Huang Bing rode his horse out of the crowd, raised his knife and pointed at Xue Tong and said, "I, Huang Bing, will meet you for a while." After that, he rode his horse and raised his knife to fight Xue Tong.

When Xue Tong saw Huang Bing approaching, he immediately went up to meet them. The two fought for several rounds, Huang Bing fell to the disadvantage, Cheng Zi saw this, and went out to help.

Xue Tong wielded the Zhangba Snake Spear, and fought with Huang Bing and Cheng Zi in the shape of three horses, fighting for thirty rounds.
