Sweep the World

After all, it was a hastily established line of defense. It was the Roman fortification method. Before it was strengthened one by one, there were only tamped soil and stones. If the attacker faced a completely cold weapon, it would naturally be able to play. The defensive effect is not bad, but it seems disregarded when facing the Han army with firearms.

The artillery troops of the Han army first fired three rounds of shelling, but then the shelling stopped.

Located on the left and right wings of the cold weapon unit of the Han army, each had a sword and shield soldier leaving the formation.

"Are they going to attack?" Erbata didn't go to the wall. He was very sorry, even if there was only a one-tenth chance that he would be hit by a flying cannonball, he would not go to the wall. He waved back from the people who came to report and asked Marus: "They just send sword and shield soldiers, should we send troops to fight back?"

Marus looked worried.

They continue to encounter failures on the frontal battlefield, and the results achieved by investing in their own troops are almost the same as sending out soldiers of all ethnic groups.

To say that the Persian army and the Roman army are better than the mixed soldiers of all ethnic groups, it can only be said that they consumed more ammunition and gunpowder of the Han army's firearms, nothing more.

"Counter-attack?" Marus took a deep breath and said: "We must not let them attack the city wall leisurely, we must fight back. It's just that the races are already terrified, and only our own people are on."

The Romans and Persians made such a huge battle, nearly fifteen thousand steps to smash the 10,000 Han army. Anyone who is not blind can see the final result.

After an hour and a half of fighting, the Romans and Persians fled about three to four thousand people. Among them, there were about 1,500 archers alone, which means that more than 70% of them lost their lives on the battlefield. superior.

When the Han army was advancing, it met dead and undead Persians and Romans who would make up the knife. There was no act of giving birth to prisoners at all. Therefore, 70% of the Romans and Persians who participated in the offensive really gave their lives to them. Lost on the battlefield. At this point, the Romans and Persians may be angry and fearful, while the hearts of all races are full of fear and panic.

"The Han people are too cruel!" Elbada had just ordered the troops under his command to attack, and once again waved back the messenger, only then gritted his teeth and said: "We don't want to take prisoners next!"

"Haha!" Marus asked with a chuckle, "Are we really going to do that? Don't keep prisoners?"

Erbata's face changed for a while, blue and white, white and blue. In the end, he slapped a hand fiercely on the table, both angry and frustrated: "We... are not qualified to do that!"

Han people can be unscrupulous, but they don't have that qualification now.

If one day the Persians can kill all without leaving prisoners on the battlefield, they will have to wait for the progress of this war to reach the stage of victory for the anti-Han Axis coalition forces.

"We threw more than two thousand five hundred people in, and you lost nearly eight thousand people." Marus said bitterly, "I don't know if we have killed the other 500 people."

"Should have been." Elbata said with less certainty: "The cavalry successfully rushed into their array. We all know how much damage the cavalry will cause if they launch a decisive collision."

In addition to the cavalry and the Han army, the anti-Han axis coalition forces could only use bows and arrows to attack the Han soldiers.

Of their Persian light cavalry, only some fearful Persian knights escaped ahead of schedule to save their lives. The Persian knight who really launched a decisive charge did not survive, but they really did the most to the Han army in the entire battle. loss.

Lost more than 10,000, the result is not sure whether there are five hundred? Whether this war damage ratio occurred on the battlefield of the three empires, or whether the two empires were united to fight another empire, it is doubtful whether Rome and Persia are at the empire level, and it is also terrified that the Han empire is really strong. share.

The exaggerated battle damage ratio is already showing its effect. As the commanders, Marus and Elbata have become unconfident, and the rest of the tribes have appeared unsustainable wavers while being stunned.

"This is the enemy of our ancestors?" Adiyabatra watched the entire battle. It was because there was no telescope and could only observe the general dynamics. However, he saw the exaggerated encounter between Persian Sassan and Rome. Disastrous defeat: "Are the Romans and Persians too useless, or the Han people too powerful?"

Seriously, this is the first time this group of descendants of the Northern Huns have seen such weapons, and they really didn't understand what the weapons of the Han army were. They didn't understand, and they had not personally encountered those weapons. They knew that those weapons were very powerful, but how powerful they were.

"There is no doubt that the Persians are very powerful. They are the overlords of the southern lands." Zhang Gu Liyi is the captain of Adiyabatra's guard. He gave an example: "We have sent warriors to their lands to hit grass valleys several times. The army that encounters the Persians generally does not take much advantage, and several times we have suffered disastrous defeats."

Assessing how strong a certain power is, basically you have to fight with that power before you can get more accurate data, or just look at how many territories that power has, how many people it owns, how much wealth it has, and so on. Some intelligence is really not so reliable to evaluate.

The simplest example, Da Zuo has enough population and strong economic strength, right? However, he has been repeatedly taught by Xixia, whose population and economic strength are dozens of times less than his own.

The Mongols, who had a small population and poor economic strength, became the "God's Whip", raging over half of the world, and no less than 200 million people died directly or indirectly at their hands. And how many people were there in the world at that time? According to some historical data, there were about 350 million people in the world at that time, which meant that more than half of the people were gone. (Mainly the spread of infectious diseases)

Zangguliyi means that the Persians are really not weak, and the Persians are at a disadvantage most of the time in the confrontation with Rome, so the Romans are better than the Persians.

Now, the Persians who are not weak, and the Romans who are stronger than the Persians, they unite to fight the Han, but they are on the battlefield in a dignified confrontation. It is not because of any conspiracy and tricks that they have suffered a jaw-dropping fiasco.

"Rome?" Aditya Batra had heard of Rome, and he learned about Rome's wealth and power from the Goths. He squeezed the whip in his hand: "It seems that the Romans are entering a period of weakness, and they will inevitably decline. How can that rich land lack our presence?"

He didn't have any brilliant education, but Adiyabatra was still a leader after all. How could he not know that once the Persian Sassanian and Rome repeatedly failed on the battlefield, even if the Hans did not reach the Persian Sassanian and Roman lands, they would have internal movements due to the repeated defeats on the battlefield, and the country would inevitably. Weaken.

"Go tell the Romans and Persians." Adiyabatra grinned: "We are willing to fight the Han people, but they need to give us five boxes of gold coins and three thousand good horses first."

Bingguliyi was stunned, saw the smirk on Adiyabatra's face, guessed what it meant, followed the smirk, and went to find Marus and Elbata.

Above the battle line, two thousand Han army sword and shield soldiers have advanced within two hundred meters of the "city wall". They collided with the Persians who were fighting, and they were fighting fiercely.

There were five thousand Persians in the battle, all of them were infantry on foot. They were very afraid of being attacked by firearms. They charged with the greatest courage with their hearts trembling. They were not attacked by firearms until they hit the Han sabers and shield soldiers. At that moment, the young man was moved to tears.

Even if the Han army did not use firearms, the battle-tested swordsman and shield soldiers still showed strong combat effectiveness. After they collided with the Persian soldiers, the front was slightly deadlocked for less than two minutes, and then they continued to advance.

The emergence of firearms troops in the Han Empire has only happened in recent years. The number of firearms troops on display has not exceeded 40,000, of which 26,000 firearms are still guarding Chang'an.

With firearms, it does not mean that the Han army, which still uses cold weapons, has become vulnerable. It can be said that the current cold weapons Han army is on the verge of the peak. They have repeatedly used their records to prove to the world what it means. Being strong, not only has sufficient experience, but morale has never been low.

As long as the morale of the regular army is not sluggish, no matter which country it is, the combat effectiveness can be guaranteed. The difference is that the level of military training and organization of each country is different, and the combat effectiveness displayed is high and low.

Those cold-arms soldiers of the Han army who originally thought that this war would be a one-man show for the firearms troops, they extremely cherish the order to get an offensive. They treat every battle as a rare opportunity and will never waste the opportunity to accumulate military exploits. Everyone It's all overpowering.

The Han saber and shield soldiers are equipped with willow leaf armor, the key parts are also equipped with a heart guard, and under the armor they wear a layer of chain mail and two layers of silk underwear. The small round shields in their hands are also made of metal, and the swords in their hands are steel knives, which can be described as the most luxurious accessory in the cold weapon era.

Zhuo Bing swung his knife to kill a Persian soldier who rushed forward. The small round shield in his other hand swung to the other Persian soldier on the side, and bloodthirstyly looked at a silly Persian soldier not far away through his visor.

The reason why the Persian soldier was dumbfounded was that he saw at least five arrows stuck in Zhuo Bing's body, but he didn't look like he was injured at all.

Zhuo Bing, who had been charging forward, had been shooting arrows for at least twenty years before. Except for the five arrows stuck in his body, the rest were slid away by the willow-shaped armor pieces.

The five arrows inserted in the body look like they are inserted, but in fact the arrowheads are the loops stuck in the chain mail. Even if the arrowheads are still inserted deeper through the iron ring, they just spread apart. The silk touched the flesh slightly.

The Cold Weapon Battlefield can often see a general with dozens of arrows in his body but still alive and alive. It is nothing more than the general's armor is good enough to look extremely miserable by the arrows, but in fact, he has not received too serious trauma. This is the role of armor defense, a real life-saving armor.

Killing and killing, Zhuo Bing suddenly discovered that there was no enemy around him, some of them were in the same uniform.

They raised their swords and roared loudly, looking through their visors into a pair of eyes, they could see the obvious invigoration and excitement, and then yelled "Kill!!!" and continued to charge forward.

The Han army sent close combat troops to charge, and the artillery troops must stop the shelling in order to avoid accidental injuries.

In order to get a clearer understanding of the battlefield situation, the Han army's shelling stopped, and the sword and shield soldiers of the Han army were close enough to determine which of the Han army's sword and shield soldiers did not retreat. He is here. Above the "city wall".

Marus stayed in the rear bunker. Once El Bata had a slight accident, he would become the sole commander of the anti-Han axis coalition on this battlefield.

The five thousand Persian infantry who fought, their will and tenacity were completely different from before, they collapsed after being damaged by about 10%. This time they were of course routing to the left and right, and they would hit the wall directly back.

Elbata was observing with his binoculars in his hand, his face suddenly stiffened when he saw something, and he yelled, "shè, shè those enemies carrying explosive bags!", while shouting, but at the same time quickly Run to the stairs.

The Han army has artillery, but destroying the "city wall" by shelling is not only wasteful, but the efficiency is also not faster than directly approaching and exploding with explosive packs. That's why sword and shield soldiers are deployed.

Among the defenders on the "city wall", only a few of them heard the roar of Erbata. They heard clearly who was roaring at Erbata. Only a few were looking for the Han army with explosives in their hands. Soldiers, more people are crying for father and mother and fleeing directly. The stairs are too slow to go down, and they are so frightened that they jump straight down from a high place.

The main general ran away in a hurry, and the people around him followed to flee. The rest of the city wall section found an abnormality. Even if you don't know what happened, it is inevitable that it caused sāo**.

The Han sabers and shield soldiers approaching under the "city wall"~www.wuxiaspot.com~ They were puzzled to find that the arrows from above were so few that they were pitiful, and there were no stones or woods left behind. They were just as they were trained. A shield wall was erected above his head.

Some soldiers were digging holes under the roots of the "city wall" with shovels. They waved their shovels to dig the holes. Someone would fuse them with explosives and bury them.

About ten minutes later, the sword and shield soldiers of the Han army withdrew from the shield wall above their heads and began to retreat. Some soldiers retreated while setting the fuse. When they retreated back, they were surprised to find that the "city wall" had become empty.

"Don't force your mouth, open your mouth and cover your ears." Zhuo Bing has already done so, urging the robe who hasn't done so: "We have retreated to a safe distance, but we still have to be prepared."

It didn't take long for the ignited fuzes to burn, and the sparks quickly moved towards the explosive package buried in the wall. The next moment there was a loud explosion.

The power of the explosion was not small, first it was a burst of light, and then mud and rubble splashed in the smoke-filled air.

In the series of explosions, the "Han Army Mighty" shouted by more than ten thousand soldiers was still clear!
