Chapter 553 The Battle Is Fierce
Approaching the coalition's east bank defense line, on top of the more than 300 flying cloud boats, it also covered round after round of arrows from the Qin army from high to low, hitting the southern coalition forces directly from the top of their heads, sending them to the enemy. Strictly suppressed, he couldn't raise his head.
In this way, under the suppression and cover of the Qin army bowmen above the cloud boat, more than 300 cloud boats descended to the flying height in unison.
In the end, within the time of bringing two incense sticks, a total of 200,000 Qin army elites were delivered to the riverside.
"Soldier, kill!"
After the 200,000 Qin army quickly assembled, they directly built an offensive formation, with the shield players in the front, the long weapons in the middle, and the bowmen in the back, and directly under the leadership of 20 Qin army captains, they launched a fierce attack on the riverfront defense line. .
The fortress barrier group is a hard bone to crack, and its main attack force is naturally not the permanent army of the Qin army.
It was the elite cannon fodder carefully selected from the two battalions of the Qin Army in several legions.
Don't underestimate these cannon fodder elites, the 200,000 army who can be carefully selected and willing to take over the main task.
Everyone has the cultivation of Qi Realm (Martial Master), and the 20 Qin army captains are all innate cultivations, and they have been on the battlefield for a long time in the continuous battle, and they have already become a strong team in the battlefield.
Of course, if you want to chew on hard bones, then the weapons and equipment must also be excellent.
This time, the Qin army base camp was not stingy, and directly replaced the 200,000 vanguard troops with standard equipment of the Qin army to increase their chances of winning.
"Shoot the arrow, drop the arrow, stop 'em, stop 'em."
Seeing that the wave of the Qin army's black armor, which was like a wolf, descended to the shore and rushed directly towards the fortress, many of the coalition generals were terrified, and even felt the fear of death.
He quickly ordered and said, ordering the crossbow troops to block the enemy.
But it is a pity that two-thirds of the long-range strike force and weapons and equipment of the coalition army were destroyed by the dragon army not long ago.
Therefore, the counterattack of the bow and crossbow at this moment can't form the covering strike effect of ten thousand arrows, and naturally it will not pose a real threat to the well-equipped and powerful Qin army.
However, the southern coalition forces in the fortress group could not threaten the Qin army, and naturally the Qin army could not threaten the fortress coalition forces.
Because what stood in front of the Qin army was a fortress high wall that traverses north and south, made of bluestone steel and a small amount of refining materials, hundreds of meters high and ten meters wide.
At such a height, even the special ladders of the Qin army could not reach it, let alone fighting on the wall.
Under the barrier of the high wall, the 200,000 Qin army was also blocked outside the high wall and could not advance an inch.
"Haha, what if you cross the river and land?"
"With this artificial moat, you can't think of continuing to attack."
Above the fortress barrier, looking at the Qin army that was forming a group under the high wall, unable to advance an inch, Tuobatao and many of the coalition generals showed a smile on their faces.
But then, they stopped laughing.
Because they found that although the Qin army outside the fortress was successfully blocked, the hundreds of thousands of Qin army elites killed from the rear had broken through the layers of defense lines and gradually rushed towards the high wall defense line.
Looking at this situation, I am afraid that it will take less than half an hour to attack here, and the Qin army on the outside should cooperate with each other and jointly attack the fortress defense line and break the river frontier defense line.
Thinking of this, Tuoba Tao's eyes narrowed, and he drew his sword and said, "The Qin army must not be allowed to converge, and the generals will come with me to intercept the Qin army."
Tuobatao took the lead and led dozens of allied generals from Yuandan realm and millions of allied army elites to leave the high wall defense line and prepare to intercept Long Qie's army.
But what they didn't know was that the movement caused by the departure of their high-level combat power and the selection of the elites of the millions of coalition forces was directly noticed by the main attacking troops of the Qin army below.
"All attack, the General and His Majesty are watching us from behind."
"The general said that after the completion of this operation, I will be incorporated into the permanent army of the empire and become the regular army of the empire. Don't you want such an honor?"
Everywhere in the army, Qin army captains shouted loudly one after another.
Hearing the words of the generals, the 200,000 Qin soldiers who were mainly composed of death row prisoners all turned red, and there was a scarlet murderous intent in their eyes.
They were originally desperados, and what they did was to lick blood on the edge of the knife. The degree of ferocity was naturally deep, and they were also doing small and big business, otherwise they would not have taken up this main attack mission.
They would not let go of this opportunity, nor would they be able to let it go.
"Brothers, step on us, let's take the human ladder and rush up."
At this moment, Qin Jun made an unexpected action.
I saw hundreds of Qin army officers and soldiers bent down and bowed directly, and the Qin army officers and soldiers behind them also stepped on the opponent's back, and the same is true in the follow-up, layer by layer, one by one, and shielded with shields to reduce casualties.
Fortunately, these Qin army soldiers were all high-level warriors, and they were all cleverly connected to share the pressure, otherwise they would have been trampled to death.
In the end, under the suppression of the bowmen of the Qin army, a human ladder with a height of 70 to 80 meters was formed.
"Generals, attack!"
Looking at the human ladder built by the corpses of the soldiers of his own army, the Qin Military School Committee directly issued an attack order.
"Kill it!"
In this way, one group after another of Qin soldiers attacked the high wall directly along the human ladder.
Although there is still a distance of more than 20 meters between the human ladder and the high wall at the end, this is a height that can be reached by just strenuously jumping for Qin soldiers who are generally in the realm of qi training.
As wished, the Qin army finally attacked the high wall, but did not achieve the expected results.
Obviously, the coalition is not vegetarian.
Moreover, on the high wall that gathered tens of millions of the elites of the coalition army, the Qin army's fueling tactics obviously did not work, and thousands of Qin army soldiers were killed and wounded one after another.
"Bastard, it seems that there is only one trick to use."
Looking at the corpses of their own army that kept falling through the high wall, many Qin army captains thought through gnashing of teeth.
"Order, withdraw the troops."
"Death squad, blow up the enemy's defensive wall."
The captain of the Qin army ordered the human ladder to be disbanded immediately. Besides the shield defenders, the 200,000 Qin army also retreated slowly, and finally retreated to the riverside.
"It seems to use that trick."
"Although these soldiers were all cannon fodder troops that were forcibly recruited and recruited by the empire, they also made great contributions to the empire's bloodshed during the wars along the way."
"After this war is over, reorganize the remaining personnel of this army into an imperial standing army."
On the flagship of the Imperial Fleet, looking at the battle situation by the river, for some reason, Bai Qi said with some regret, and he didn't know what he was regretting.
"Hey, the situation is like this, there is no way out."
Hearing Bai Qi's words, Ying Ji on the side also sighed and said.
Even the two generals of the empire behaved like this. Obviously, the next movement is definitely not small.
