Main text 1703 Battle of Putao (Part IX)
The "crack-crack" sound of the trebuchet's spring cracking was continuous, and countless stones with various sharp angles flew over the space above the river like a flock of migrating birds, falling from the sky with a shrill sound of wind and smashing like thunder. In the queue of Falcon Army shooters on the opposite side
"ah"
The Xiting shooters had no shields and could not withstand this completely irresistible long-range counterattack. The huge stones were like rain, crushing through the line-like queue, and the soldiers on the entire road were smashed into flesh in an instant. Mud and gravel flew everywhere. Under the rolling boulder, there was a bloody corpse.
"go ahead"
The Gangfei infantrymen gritted their teeth with blood-red eyes and endured huge casualties, just to quickly shorten the distance between themselves and the opponent's shooters. The densely packed infantry spears flashed with the terrifying edge of metal. The spear heads are like a forest! The pressure on the defense line is getting heavier every moment, and they are getting closer and closer every time, and the number of people is getting bigger and bigger. Both sides in the fierce battle were gnashing their teeth, blood was flying everywhere, and screams were heard one after another! The Gangfei infantry who climbed up the river beach screamed and climbed up. The area was as dark as black ants crawling over a piece of sugar cube. Countless arrows were flying, and shining metal waterfalls could be seen from high up. Flying past.
"shooting!"
There were about 5,000 Xiting archers and 3,000 Falcon Central Army crossbowmen, desperately maintaining the last river beach defense line. The world was filled with terrible shocking sounds, and huge rocks and arrows as dense as raindrops were violently fired again. The bombardment hit the ranks of soldiers on both sides like waves hitting the hard rock wall, turning into a splash of terrifying bright red.
"Attack, advance!"
Remshat led three thousand Gangfei light cavalry, like a long line across the river, pushing the river in front of him as deep as the belly of the horse. The heavy infantry of the Eighth Army was seizing the river beach in front, and the rapid arrow clusters hit these heavy infantry. On the body, at the same time, a bloody and ferocious killing zone formed on the river. Many Gangfei infantrymen were still moving forward bravely with arrows stuck all over their bodies. The fallen corpses rushed down the rolling river. Fifty meters further ahead, there was the enemy's shooter.
"Keep shooting. If anyone retreats without permission, behead him!"
The centurions among the shooters in the West Court shouted coldly to their commotion subordinates.
Before King Khan's order, no squadron dared to retreat even half a step. The fierce style of the prairie people has always been to fight to the death! Amidst the frantic shouts of the centurions in the West Courtyard, the shooters in the West Courtyard who were stunned by the falling rocks once again aimed the powerful composite heavy bow fifty meters away with a solemn expression, like a swarm of ants. Gangfei infantry huddled together.
"shoot!"
The bowstring is loosened, bang! Snap! Snap! Like firecrackers exploding continuously, countless white lines shot out from the composite bow of the shooter in the West Courtyard, like a violent storm pouring directly towards the river beach below, "Ah!" The Gangfei infantry immediately shot down a large area, and in the Where the arrow clusters were most densely intertwined, corpses were piled into small mounds on the riverside. Blood gurgled into the river, and the thousand-meter-wide river beach was dyed red in the fierce battle. The wounded soldiers were pressed among the piles of corpses and screamed for help. No one had time to pay attention. The troops who were pushed up from behind did not dare to stop. The only choice for people is to move forward, move forward! This is a life and death battle, there is no retreat. There is no victory or defeat, only life and death!
"Woo!"
A shrill war cry suddenly came from the opposite side
"What's going on?" Goode raised his head, and his excited face was unexpectedly stunned for a moment, but a look of ecstasy quickly appeared on his face and he ran away! The enemy is fleeing, and the Falcon Army shooters on the entire river bank are retreating like a tide. Their own infantry has defeated the confidence of these tenacious shooters.
"Move forward. Victory belongs to Gangfei!"
Goode suddenly pulled out his sword and raised it high above his head, with uncontrollable excitement on his face. The shooter on the opposite side was very tenacious. Under the pressure of our own heavy infantry, we have persisted until now, but the final victory belongs to us, to these imperial warriors who bravely move forward. After fierce fighting until now, the number of casualties of the Eighth Army has exceeded 3,000. , the river had already been dyed red with bright red human blood, but the Falcon Army on the opposite side was also having a hard time. The trebuchet troops inflicted huge damage to the opponent's shooters.
Fortunately, in this offensive and defensive battle, it is you who wins! Heavy infantry is the natural nemesis of long-range shooters. The opponent has no chance of winning from the beginning!
"Hail, forward!"
"Kill all those sons of bitches!"
Feeling that victory was in sight, the Congolese army let out bursts of victorious cheers, and a large number of infantrymen overflowed the river beach,
As the shooters evacuated in an orderly manner toward the rear, the ecstatic Gangfei infantry sped up, panting and climbing up the soft river beach. They crossed the sloping river bank and reached the flat ground. They pursued with all their strength, leaving no one behind! This is what all Gangfei people are thinking in their minds.
Remshat's three thousand Gannon light cavalry leapt onto the river beach with their hoofbeats, their hooves sounding like thunder, and they galloped up the slope of the river bank like a strong wind.
A dazzling cold light ahead came into view. Remshat, who was running at the front, tightened his pupils unconsciously, and with a look of horror on his face, he struggled to hold on to the galloping horse.
"This is!"
Almost all the light cavalry who rushed up the slope of the river bank were like him. Their excited faces were as pale as if they had been slapped in the face. Looking at the scene in front, many of them were so shocked that their whole bodies turned into stone and their bodies bulged. Behind the river bank is a huge flat land!
Thousands of black cavalry are like a static black line, a dense cold light, which is the reflection of the bows and arrows in the hands of the opposing cavalry.
"It's the opponent's archer group!"
Remshat stared blankly at the black tide in front of him that blocked his sight. It was so dark that it made people dare not look directly at it. On top of countless war horses, horse archers wearing black armor were stretched out. The bow presents a full half-arc, and the cold light of the metal tip is like the stars in the sky. , the gaze contains killing. It is conceivable that once the bow string is released, the infantry who have just rushed to the river bank will instantly become hedgehogs in front of this rapid and intensive killing formation. Taking advantage of the panic of the infantry, these horse archers will use Their horses crushed all the infantry who rushed up the river bank,
Compared with these horse archer ambush arrays that were as still as mountains but full of murderous rage, the infantrymen who had just gone through a fierce battle and were panting were completely unaware of the terrible situation they were about to face. The joy of victory made the infantrymen Completely ignoring the possible counterattack, the infantry formation used to resist the cavalry attack had already been torn apart. Everyone was running upwards excitedly, completely unaware that a huge side sword composed of tens of thousands of cavalry had been raised high above their heads.
This will be a massacre of tens of thousands of Imperial warriors! Remshat turned pale and shuddered.
He could see a man wearing black heavy armor in front of this black line. The fat man in a red cloak was looking at him with interest. Under his eyes, which were far sharper than arrows, Remshat felt that everything about him seemed to be under his control! The feeling the other party gave him was so invincible!
"Sir, what should we do?" A cavalry captain stopped his horse and said to Remshat with a gloomy expression. No one dared to move. Under the countless arrow clusters on the opposite side, everyone felt like they were on pins and needles! His hair stood up in horror. At this moment, even a fool knew that he had been ambushed!
"Everyone follow me and hold them back. Buy time for the infantry to line up! Otherwise, we will all die!" Remshat suddenly clamped his horse with a firm face, and was the first to attack, his voice was hysterical. Shouting loudly, after hesitating for just a second, the three thousand Gang Fei light cavalry rode their horses to follow Commander Remshat. Since this was the case, there was no possibility of retreating. Let your beloved war horse gallop like the wind again, and end it all with splendor! The sound of galloping horse hooves is like rolling thunder in a heavy rain,
Looking at the Gangfei light cavalry who unexpectedly burst out of courage, the fat man's cold and calm eyes flashed like a deep black pool.
The courage of General Gang Fei, who was the first to rush out, made his eyes flash with appreciation. Not bad. A commander who can make self-sacrifice in a short period of time is a good commander. What a pity! Even if you die, this war is irreversible!
The fat man's raised right hand suddenly came down, "Shoot!" The battlefield was only ruthless. There are no words like sympathy or regret, words that can only be said after the war!
“Bang! Bang! Bang!
Countless bowstrings were released at the same time, and the dense white lines shot out from behind him, like huge white buds that suddenly bloomed, presenting a spectacular and gorgeous storm, quickly covering up the oncoming light cavalry group.
"Papapapa" The cold light of killing is like a heavy rain beating the leaves of a lute, penetrating and lashing out, and the armor is shot out in all directions. The three rhombus-shaped steel arrow clusters effortlessly shoot into these Gangfei who launched the suicidal charge. The body of the light cavalry was not protected by heavy armor, and the body of the light cavalry was torn apart in front of the Mitsubishi armor-piercing arrows used by the cavalry to deal with heavy infantry.
"Pfft" The blood exploded like flowers on the bodies of these light cavalry who lacked heavy armor protection, and the war horses dragged their masters forward!
"hiss!"
The war horse neighed in pain, and its running pace began to deviate. After traveling for more than 20 meters, the huge body weighing half a ton, together with the light cavalry full of arrows, hit the ground like falling stars. , raising large amounts of smoke and dust, it was extremely tragic, the dying war horse was completely paralyzed, and the ground under the blood-stained war horse, only the fanning nose still represented the last persistence of the war horse,
"Andrea, my Andrea"
The young light cavalry, covered in blood, struggled to crawl to his beloved horse. His bloody body dragged a bloody trail several meters long on the ground! Clusters of arrows struck again, and bright red blood spurted out with the arrows that penetrated the body. The whole person was nailed to the ground. The decisive blow of three thousand cavalry came fifty meters away from the horse archers. The place was completely contained, and all they could do was delay it for more than ten minutes. At this time, the Gangfei infantry had already rushed up the slope, but the sight in front of them made them completely stupid.
"What is that sound?" Gude, the commander of the Gangfei Eighth Army who was riding across the river, unexpectedly stopped his horse. The cold river water flowed over his feet, but what made his heart feel as cold as an ice cellar was coming from the edge of the opposite river bank. The huge roaring sound is the sound of the hoofbeats of the cavalry group,
"Cavalry, enemy cavalry!" Chaotic shouts came from the front at the same time,
"Cavalry!" Gude's head was stunned. He saw the Gangfei infantrymen who had been rushing in high spirits just now, but now they were running down the river bank rolling and crawling as if being pushed by invisible big hands, waving With even numbers screaming shrilly, countless white lines shot out quickly. The bodies of these soldiers rolled down the slope, followed closely by them, and the ground trembled violently.
"Attention, enemy cavalry!" At this moment, all the Gangfei people felt a biting chill coming to their foreheads. I saw countless cavalry in black armor swooping down like a flock of eagles, like a black iron wall, forcibly crushing the Gangfei infantry still on the slope of the river bank, like a ball of spinning flails with spikes It hit the thin armor heavily, causing fragments to fly. You could even clearly see that the first row of non-infantry soldiers who came into contact were directly involved in the galloping horses. Turn into a ball of flesh on the ground
"Papa papa" The Gangfei heavy infantry who were caught off guard were knocked away by heavy blows like toys, and were cut open all at once. Countless iron hoof swords were like a flood, crushing and submerging the foolish Gangfei infantry in front. , the war horse passes by. Only the remains of corpses were left on the ground,
The light of the "killing" scimitar fell, causing the Gangfei people to fall into chaos
"Bastard, this is a trap!" Goode's eyes were blood red and his fists were clenched together. Under his gaze, the black iron wall formed by the enemy cavalry was rapidly expanding. It even occupies the entire slope! Without the cover of the queue, the bodies of our infantry fell in pieces, like weeds swept by the strong wind. The enemy's offensive was very fast and violent. Instead, it swept across the line and cut in from several points. It was as unstoppable as an iron flow and stood where it stood. Ground infantry. He stared blankly at the galloping war horses, barely even reacting as he was drowned by the flying bright sword light.
"kill!"
The machetes of the prairie cavalry shone on the faces of the tired and panicked Confederate soldiers. The war horses swarmed down the slope like an avalanche. The heavy infantry of the Congolese Eighth Army were completely in chaos and screamed in agony. Amidst the exclamations, the area came into contact with the black cavalry. It was cut into several pieces in an instant,
"Ah" the entire Gangfei infantry fell to the ground. In just ten minutes of contact, the frontmost Gangfei infantry had disappeared from everyone's sight. One row, two rows, three rows, the black cavalry killed the infantry on the river bank with an unabashed crushing attitude, killing with all their strength, corpses lying all over the river bank, until no one was left standing. until,
Under the strong pressure of the impact, the chaotic infantry was overthrown by the entire row of cavalry. The rapidly charging black cavalry rushed in from the hasty infantry like a bunch of arrows. The fierce impact sound came with the wind, and the powerful The impact force knocks away all the objects that hit it.
The scimitar, still stained with blood, slashed towards the neck like the wind. The war horse flew past the scattered deserters like a hurricane, bringing up streaks of blood in the sky. The big head was struck by the arc of the scimitar. Flying into the air, the horse swept across the river bank like thunder,
The corpses of the Gangfei infantrymen were like fallen leaves rolled up in the storm. They were knocked down, trampled, and finally torn to pieces by the galloping horses. The morale of the Gangfei army could no longer be maintained, and the entire team collapsed uncontrollably. , everyone ignored the killing black cavalry behind them and jumped into the river that they had just fought so hard to cross. Everyone wanted to stay away from these terrible cavalry.
"Hold still, don't retreat!"
Some stubborn non-Gangfei officers shouted, "Wooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooohwhhhhhhh!" The soldiers were knocked sideways into the rolling river by their own people. The people inside were restrained by the heavy armor, and their bodies fell into the river uncoordinated. They swallowed the river water in pain and were drowned alive by the river.
"The river surface one hundred and fifty meters ahead is covered with projectiles!"
While the steppe cavalry swept across the river bank, three thousand skilled crossbowmen from the Imperial Central Army lined up in several rows on the higher edge.
The powerful infantry crossbow with a flat end in his hand began to rise upward as the captains shouted and raised their arms.
The formation formed in a straight line spread out in an orderly manner from the center to both sides, like a huge and powerful falcon wings. In an almost fully opened straight line, it rushed towards the crowded group of rigid bodies in the river. The non-human unfolded his death arms, and the sound of the powerful bowstring vibrating even shook the entire space.
A dense and terrifying array of arrows instantly covered the inky sky,
The metal arrow shines with a chilling light in the dark sky, like a gorgeous metal light rain, crossing a distance of more than a hundred meters in front, drawing a beautiful arc in the air and falling towards the river. Countless people are crowded in it. The Gangfei infantrymen in the river were hit by arrows one after another.
Without any precautions, he was exploded by a metal arrow, and blood floated with the water.
Among them was the body of Goode, commander of the Gangfei Eighth Army. He was shot by five crossbow arrows. One of the crossbow arrows penetrated his helmet and penetrated the skull of the Gangfei warrior. He opened his eyes in disbelief. Under the horrified eyes of the guards, he fell from his horse into the river! His death caused the Gangfei army to completely lose their will to fight!
"Clean the river with all your strength!"
The Xiting cavalry who finished the killing on the river bank began to take off the compound bows and arrows on their backs and shoot at the enemies floating in the river one by one.
Screams came one after another, and corpses rolled in the red river water.
Tens of thousands of defeated troops from the Eighth Army and the Punitive Legion were massacred in the river! Only a handful of less than a thousand people were able to climb up the river bank and escape. Pieces of corpses were washed down by the river water. In the narrowest section of the river, there were even large numbers of corpses blocking the river channel. (To be continued.
