Chapter 630
In the trench, the two companies that boarded the camp first waited quietly for the explosion under the city wall. They covered their ears with their hands, or opened their mouths slightly, just like they did during training on weekdays, so as to prevent them from being too shocked to hear or It's ear bleeding.
There is a sloped attack opening in front of the trench, which can just unfold the front of a company, because the suppression of the artillery can completely ignore the blocking of the attack opening on the opposite side.
At the same time as the loud noise shook the earth, the trumpeter blew the charge horn, and the infantry behind the cover quickly climbed out of the trench, and the whole team of musketeers and crossbowmen aimed at both sides of the collapsed city wall to suppress.
The spearmen waited in line with spears, and prepared the command to charge at the subsequent assault points. A brigade with flank cover to reduce frontal pressure also prepared a long wooden ladder.
The two companies that boarded the camp first rushed out first, and the copper cannons behind them had already started to turn their muzzles, bombarding both sides, leaving a gap of dozens of steps wide for the two companies that boarded the camp first.
The company commander wore a red headband, a red turban wrapped around his forehead, and a slightly long tail fluttering, which was particularly conspicuous, leading people to rush out first.
There are no living people on the collapsed city wall, but there is still a low wall behind the city wall. Behind the low wall, the Qi army has gathered a lot of people to prepare for the counterattack. The gaps in the low wall are uneven, making it difficult to line up. It is difficult to use hands here, and we can only rely on the soldiers of these two companies to rush away.
A small and convenient wooden ladder was built at the gap in the collapsed city wall. A Sima's 25 people took the lead in throwing some iron mines at the gap in the city wall, and then built a short wooden ladder and climbed to the gap.
Two Sima's soldiers climbed and charged from the broken city wall with slopes on both sides, controlling the commanding heights to control the Qi army at the gap to counterattack.
At the low wall behind the main wall, the Qi army on it was also seriously injured by the explosion just now, and the Qi army formed behind the low wall was also urged by the nobles to prepare for a counterattack.
The nobles in the city also knew the Mohist's siege tactics, and knew that once the gap was opened, the city would be taken away.
They gathered all the dead soldiers, personal servants and other elite around them here, preparing to counterattack.
It was all in one go, so the first wave of the counterattack was extremely important. If the first wave could not repel the Mohists, there would be no chance, because the first wave of counterattacks were the elite warriors and paid fighters on their side.
Qi fighters are paid for one battle. They are professional mercenaries. They do not have the status of warriors, but they have been trained in the market and have enough ability to kill in close quarters.
The samurai on the Qi side also wore leather bezels, and the orthodox warriors wore leather hats made of deerskin when they were crowned.
Before the sound of the explosion, these soldiers wearing leather hats took out their red headscarves, put them on their foreheads with both hands, and drew out their daggers.
The costumes on the heads of the first campers on the Mohist side are very similar to theirs. They also have red headscarves on their foreheads and leather hairpins. The only difference is that the soldiers on the Mohist side have neck and arms. , also wearing red scarves and arm wraps, making it easy to identify each other on the battlefield.
The smoke and dust from the collapsed city wall hadn't dissipated yet, the first company that boarded the camp first had rushed to the gap and climbed up the walls on both sides of the gap.
The soldiers of the Qi army at the low wall behind the main wall also started to counterattack with the sound of drums.
The bombardiers on the Yishi’s side lined up in a small formation of 25 people on the uneven city wall. Two bombers in each team were in front of them, and the three behind them delivered the iron mines that were lit, and the bombs spread out on the gaps and on the walls on both sides. A company watched the Qi army warriors attacking bravely and threw two rounds of iron thunder.
After the booming explosion, the company behind also followed. The commander of the first company took advantage of the smoke after the explosion and the Qi army that had been blown apart, and pulled out the simple but passionate Li Tianxia characters engraved on it. Iron sword, shouted: "Rush over! When we meet on a narrow road, the brave wins..."
Those who lined up waited to leave the iron thunder in their hands to the company behind, followed this slogan that had been circulated in the Mohists for more than ten years, and took advantage of the opportunity when the group of warriors of the Qi army was scattered, they used iron swords as weapons to launch an attack. shock.
They understood their mission, opened the gap, dispersed the first wave of counterattacks of the Qi army, and bought time for the subsequent spearmen and musketeers to climb the city wall. This is the basis.And on this basis, breaking through the enemy and then cutting into the city to completely break up the Qi army's assembly is the icing on the cake.
On the opposite side are full-time samurai gathered together, and on this side is the first camp who has stood out after years of hard training in the army. Each of them holds a short sword and has almost no shield. The most brutal fight is unfolding under the gap in the city wall. .
The impact launched by the first company looked a little scattered, far less solid and tidy than the formation of spearmen, but it was still a small formation of five people.
The four people beside the company commander stood a little closer, and in front of the company commander was a warrior from the Qi Kingdom. During the fight, he glanced at his comrades around him from the corner of his eye.
The Qi warrior in front of the two partners on the left is obviously an old hand. He deliberately sold a loophole to lure the swordsman on the righteous teacher's side to attack first, but his feet were not chaotic at all, and his grasp of distance was also excellent. Obviously, he was trained in countless fights life and death skills.
The titular swordsman on the left of the company commander had already fallen for the trick, thinking he had found an opportunity, he took a step forward and stabbed a sword, but the warrior on the opposite side took advantage of the moment when he was unable to recover his center of gravity when he hit with all his strength, his right leg Stepping forward, the front legs are like bows and the back legs are like strings. The arm holding the sword stretches out and the whole body collapses into a straight line, hitting the abdomen of the righteous swordsman. It doesn't matter whether the righteous swordsman is dead or not. Standing up like a wave, he stepped back and stabbed towards the swordsman of the famous master on the far left.
This step is extremely skillful. After the center of gravity is determined, it can be attacked or defended. The grasp of distance is an important feature of the level of swordsmanship.
The company commander of the first company glanced over from the corner of his eye, feeling uneasy, he stabbed to death a Qi warrior on the opposite side, but because of the distance, he could only choose to support the partner on the right first, and shouted impatiently: "Sangzi, don't rush!"
The righteous swordsman named Sang Zi saw the beautiful assassination just now, and he was also a little panicked. He had only been in the army for two years, and he had practiced hard on the simplest stabbing skills. He must have wanted to take half a step back, but Sangzi was so flustered that he chose to chop and slash to press down on the opposite sword.
The company commander yelled inwardly that it was not good, but he was useless, and the people in front of him were also good players.
Sangzi's sword slashed down with great force, but the Qi warrior didn't withdraw his sword, nor did he retreat. Instead, he faced the slash with his voice and did not avoid it. Step forward.
If the arm exerts force, it is extremely labor-intensive to strike with the tip of the sword, but it is much less labor-intensive to strike close to the hilt of the sword. This is a skill of fighting with one's life.
Sangzi has been training in the army for two years, and the Mohists pay attention to knowing what is happening and why, but in actual combat, he is much worse than the opposite warrior who has fought and killed countless times.
At the same time, Sangzi suddenly felt a huge force coming from the sword, and the Qi warrior took another step forward at the moment of struggling upward, and his thick left hand directly stretched out to Sangzi's wrist holding the sword, and suddenly grabbed it. At the same time, the waist and hips twisted, the shoulders sank and lifted, and Sangzi's arm holding the sword was pinched on the shoulder with the shoulder as the axis, and he pulled violently. Under the severe pain, Sangzi's hand could not hold the sword at all, and then he felt He tripped over his feet.
The warrior of Qi lowered Sangzi's sword, and his feet were already inserted between Sangzi's legs that were set forward and backward according to the military technique. He bumped his body hard with his waist, and Sangzi fell to the ground because of his unsteady standing. abdomen.
"Mulberry!"
The company commander who had killed the Qi warrior in front shouted, and the Qi warrior who stabbed the two people also approached, with the red headband on his forehead, his calm eyes were waiting for the company commander, grasping the near perfect distance, no matter what. Not far away, hold the sword and choose to circle around.
"A good hand."
The company commander muttered to himself, took a deep breath, touched his waist with his left hand, and took out a short dagger, and the face of the Qi warrior on the opposite side also became serious.
The source of the Mohist's swordsmanship is complicated, and Mozi's swordsmanship is superb, but the swordsmanship of the Beichengmen is mainly based on the stabbing of the army, and it was originally used together with the sword and shield.
Later, those who were proficient in sword and shield went to Xiliu to teach Xiliu water masters who fought on board. These grenadier pioneers who fought on foot only had iron swords but no shields. The long sword is used as a shield and the dagger is used as a stab, and they are killed by deceiving and approaching.
The warriors of the Qi people were well-informed and had fought for many years. When they saw the company commander of the righteous division opposite him holding a dagger in his left hand, he said to himself: "I heard in Gaotang that there was a chivalrous man who was good at using this kind of sword technique 30 years ago. The one who ran away violently and killed, actually entered the Mo family. This person's swordsmanship is learned from that person, so we need to be careful."
He is from Gaotang, and there are many legends in the market. He also knows that this sword technique is to use a sword as a shield and a dagger as a sword after getting close. After revealing the flaw, you can kill him with one sword!"
After the company commander drew out the dagger, he also knew that the opponent was amazingly skillful, and thought: "I need to keep a distance from him. If he attacks me, he will retreat, lure him to show his weakness, and then take advantage of the chaos to bully him, sticking to him so that he cannot retreat. to kill him..."
The two looked at each other, regardless of the sound of fighting next to them, but they unexpectedly did not attack, but kept adjusting their steps.
They stood for a long time, but heard several gunshots from behind, and saw that Qi warrior trembled, fell to the ground and convulsed, he was hit by a musket, it seemed that the musketeer had already climbed up on the top of the wall.
…………
Three hundred steps away from the city wall, a situation that could cheer him up came from the suitable telescope. Several musketeers built a ladder, and put one musketeer on the high part of the city wall. Two or three companies of musketeers were already lined up on the wall.
The musketeer who climbed to the high place with a human ladder planted the Mohist's weird flag with wheat ears, sickles and hammers on the high place of the city wall, and waved his hands.
The Qi people at the gap did not seize the opportunity of the first wave of counterattack, and if the counterattack was not successful, it meant that the final opportunity for counterattack was lost.
Shi didn't know what kind of battle happened behind the city wall, and he didn't know how many casualties of the Xiandeng company were caused by the counterattack of the Qi people's elite warriors, but he knew that Pingyang City had already been breached.
So he waved his hand and called the trumpeters and messengers around him and said: "Command, let the martial knights on the flanks form an formation and prepare. The infantry knights will chase after you at will. There are a small group of enemy infantry knights who have escaped from the city. More than three to five hundred, the martial knights will attack and chase you." Kill. Let the second division prepare to wait for the first division to open the city gate, enter the city from the gate, and disintegrate the Qi people's assembly."
