It Starts With A Mountain

Chapter 478

Li Xing jumped violently for a while, and the five spirits took off. These ninety-seven corpses were like slaps one after another, slapping their faces firmly. The two armies confronted each other, and before the war began, Cheng Dalei gave himself a slap in the face.

Now Li Xing looks at his subordinates as if looking at a bunch of stupid pigs, in a way, even pigs are inferior.

"Sir, calm down, calm down..." the military advisor said.

"What anger, how can I calm my anger, how did I raise you rubbish."

Li Xing yelled and cursed there, scolding the group of people under him with blood. The sergeant lowered his head and waited until Li Xing finished scolding before he spoke.

"Sir, we followed a group and found something outside."

"What?" Li Xing said with a dark face: "Is it the brain you lost?"

"Uh……"

The sergeant was silent for a while awkwardly, then waved his hand, and one of his subordinates came over with an object in both hands, wrapped in a furoshiki, and there were scattered pieces of wood inside.

"This is what we found during our search last night. Please take a look at the corpses. Most of these corpses are arrows in the throat, and the crossbow arrows are quenched with poison. After our comparison, the crossbow arrows are fired by this kind of mechanism." The sergeant explained. .

Li Xing stared at the pile of scattered parts and said, "So, they have weapons that we don't know about, can they be restored by craftsmen in the army?"

Li Xing finally calmed down and looked at the military advisor with anticipation.

"Uh..." The strategist shook his head: "I've let them see it, the damage is too broken, and I don't know what it looks like?"

The light of expectation in Li Xing's eyes dissipated, and his face darkened: "Then what's the use of talking to me about this?"

"Uh……"

The strategist coughed for a while and said, "Sir, let's talk about how to fight this battle well, shall we?"

"Notify the Prime Minister's Mansion and the General's Mansion to attack today." Li Xing clenched his saber, and in a flash, he said, "I want to defeat the Toad Army today and cut off Cheng Dalei's head as a urinal."

At noon, the imperial army began to mobilize, the war drums beating, the whole army was dispatched, and the line of troops was pressed five miles forward.

Cheng Dalei watched this scene at the camp gate, and narrowed his eyes slightly: "The fight starts at this time, and it's to fight us at night."

"Big boss, how do you fight now?" Liu Bei asked.

"How else can we fight, let go." Cheng Dalei said: "The elite of 10,000 Toad City can't take down 50,000 Imperial Army, so I don't need to fight."

The Imperial Army kept advancing, and at dusk, it was assembled and launched a general attack on the Toad Army.

The catapult and heavy crossbow pushed forward, the cavalry followed behind the long-range team, and after that, there were densely packed infantry. The imperial army is nothing more than a three-axes fight, first attacking with long-range weapons, then the cavalry rushes forward, and after the cavalry rushes, the infantry rushes.

Of course, if subdivided, the cavalry can be divided into light cavalry, heavy cavalry, and rangers responsible for patrolling and guarding. Infantry is divided into heavy armored soldiers, archers, spearmen, sword soldiers, shield soldiers and so on.

Cheng Dalei stood at the camp gate, holding a sword in his hand, and commanded the battlefield in person.

The imperial army had already started to attack with trebuchets, and the stone bullets flew in the sky, Cheng Dalei looked at it with a solemn expression for a while.

Xu Shenji and Cheng Dalei stood together. He looked at this scene with a speechless expression.

"They can't reach here, why don't they push forward?"

Cheng Dalei looked at him and said helplessly: "Liu Bei, can you explain it to him?"

Liu Bei also looked at Xu Shenji with a bewildered look, and paused: "We have a favorable position on the terrain, and they will hit us from the bottom up, so naturally they won't be able to hit us, but if they continue to push forward, they will Get into our range. We're high, they're low, and we'll always be farther than them."

"Oh, so that's the case." Xu Shenji made a sudden realization: "The big boss is tall!"

"It's just average." Cheng Dalei waved his hand: "Don't worry, they won't be playing for long, and they will only be three and a half hot."

"Why is this?" Xu Shenji.

Cheng Dalei was completely speechless, and Liu Bei explained again: "Most of the terrain in Bingzhou is grassland, and it is not easy to transport the stone bombs needed by the catapult. They naturally prepared a batch, but they couldn't last for too long. Of course... …”

Liu Bei looked at Cheng Dalei and said, "Of course the big boss has already thought of this."

"Uh...haha..." Cheng Dalei laughed for a while: "Of course, everything is under the control of a certain family."

In fact, Cheng Dalei really hadn't thought of this before. He sent Qin Man and others to make waves on the grasslands, which indeed hindered the imperial army from preparing supplies. However, this was purely an unintentional move and was not in Cheng Dalei's prior plan.

He and Liu Bei had a good estimate. The trebuchets of the Imperial Army attacked for a while, and then they died down. The front of the camp of the Toad Army was full of stones.

"Big boss, it's getting dark." Liu said sadly.

"Well." Cheng Dalei glanced at the night: "It's getting dark, it's time for us to do it. Let the imperial army learn how to fight a battle."

The Imperial Army launched an attack at dusk, but to no avail. Li Xing and others are also discussing how to fight this battle.

They chose to continue to advance until they reached a distance where they could launch a frontal attack, and start a hand-to-hand battle with the toad army.

Cheng Dalei stood at the camp gate, staring down the hillside, and saw a dense crowd of soldiers like ants gathering, they pushed forward in the dark, and the weapons in their hands flashed coldly from time to time.

Cheng Dalei also has a certain understanding of the Imperial Army. Most of them are composed of civilians. If this kind of charge is ahead, it is naturally completed by the death squad. It is impossible to say that these people still have unheated silver in their arms. .

After they reached the range of the Toad Army, Cheng Dalei ordered the attack to begin.

First use the crossbow arrow to kill the enemy, then push down the wooden rock to clear the obstacle. However, these people are indeed brave, and they rushed up with all their might.

Cheng Dalei waved his hand and started the next round of attack.

A bonfire was suddenly lit at the camp gate, and the trebuchets began to fire. They blasted out with the firelight, and when they landed, they exploded, lighting up the entire night sky.

The weapons developed by Toad City through gunpowder are not only fire and thunder, but now the trebuchet throws out another kind. The structure is similar to the fire thunder. After being ignited with an open flame, it is thrown through a trebuchet.

The Imperial Army has seen gunpowder, but not necessarily this weapon. Most of the ordinary warriors thought it was some kind of spell, and they panicked for a while, and the morale of the army was mostly drained.

At this time, the camp door opened, and Zhao Zilong's dragon cavalry took the lead.

The imperial army has three axes, and Cheng Dalei also has three and a half axes. After enough long-range weapons, the two sides began to confront each other.
