The atmosphere around Hangu Pass had dropped to freezing point, neither side dared to make a move first, they were all looking for an opportunity, an opportunity for the other party to make a mistake.
Because the soldiers marched too fast, the siege equipment such as the catapult could not be transported after all. If you want to really break through, I am afraid that you can only rely on human lives to pile up.
And it is very likely that they will not be able to pile up. Hangu Pass, the undefeated pass, has been attacked for a long time.
"Your Majesty, are you really not going to wait any longer?"
Although Lian Po was impatient, he also knew that having siege equipment and not having siege equipment were two different things. After all, he did not expect that the catapult did not arrive.
"Stay any longer, I'm afraid something bad will happen. Gu's heart seems to be a little uneasy, but I can't tell where the uneasiness is."
Lord Xinling looked at the majestic majestic pass in the distance, stretched out his hand and rubbed his brows,
"Wait and wait, from the moment Crown Prince Qin ascends the city, it will all depend on the old general."
Lian Po touched the five-stone bow beside him. Ever since he knew that Prince Qin might go to the city to beat the drums, he never left the bow, for fear of missing that opportunity.
"Your Majesty, don't worry. Although a certain is old, shooting a child is as easy as eating and drinking."
Lord Xinling responded, seeing the adjutant unfurling the banner, indicating that the army formation was ready, he put down the wine cup in his hand, cupped his hands at Lianpo and said:
"From now on, Gu will no longer participate, and the old general will play the role. Gu will make tea and drink here, and wait for the old general to return home!"
Naturally, Lian Po also saw the flag raised by the adjutant in the distance, arched his hands, stood up and turned around, put his right hand on the saber at his waist, raised his left hand, dropped it sharply, and roared:
"Commander, crossbowmen, prepare rockets!"
The roar spread throughout the coalition army formation, and countless adjutants, with flags flying in their hands, passed the order along with the roar.
The army formation changed instantly, countless soldiers surged, and after a while, countless crossbowmen took their positions, with oilcloths on their crossbow arrows, and a soldier holding a torch stood beside them.
"Light it up, shoot!"
Countless soldiers sent torches forward, and the strings of bows and crossbows in the hands of countless soldiers vibrated, except for a few who missed and burned themselves, thousands of rockets flew into the air and pressed towards Hangu Pass.
Gong Gong knew that the war had started when the flags under the formation changed.
The armor on his body had already been put on, and the weapons in his hands were also taken up.
Gong Gong raised his spear in his hand and roared angrily: "Command the general order! Raise the shield and defend!"
In this chaotic battlefield, most of Shangguan's general orders are broadcast by order flags, and some are broadcast by horns.
"Ugh-"
A long horn sounded, accompanied by the sound of heavy objects hitting the ground.
Looking at Hangu again, he was already well protected by Qin soldiers who raised their shields one by one.
The rockets had already landed, most of them landed on the shield armor, a very small number of people were shot dead, and the gap was quickly filled up.
Lian Po was still holding the sword in his right hand, looking at the situation of Hangu Pass, and when he found that the rocket was useless, he was not angry, and still gave the order:
"Shoot again!"
The formation of the coalition forces remains unchanged, except for the movement of replenishing arrows, there may be no other movements.
Following Lian Po's hands falling, rockets were still fired neatly from the army formation, overwhelmingly pressing towards Hangu.
The shield wall at Hangu Pass was not broken, except for a little fire falling behind the shield, there were no major casualties nearby.
After these two rounds of arrow formations, Mr. Mo had roughly figured out the opponent's archery gap, and the long spear in his hand changed, and he shouted: "Raise the shield, defend! The crossbowman behind the shield is ready!"
"Woo—————"
There was another long blast of horns, and the Qin pawns who were squatting behind all bent down and walked low, carefully walking behind the shield warriors with their bows and crossbows on their backs.
After all, the arrow array stopped for a while, and before the next arrow array was shot, he heard the roar of Gong Gong:
"Bowmen, lean forward and shoot!"
The shield warrior put down his shield and squatted down, and the crossbowman got up to aim. With the sound of the horn, a rain of arrows fell from top to bottom in front of the coalition forces.
Lian Po's face suddenly turned ugly, and the wailing from the previous battle could be heard here, which means that the previous battle may have suffered a lot of losses.
The right hand on the waist clenched tightly, but still did not draw out the saber, and the left hand still fell, but the order changed:
"Pass the command! The three teams of crossbowmen shoot, the first team shoots, the second team catches up, the second team shoots, the third team catches up, this cycle, there must be no mistakes!"
The formation of the coalition forces changed again, regardless of the rain of arrows falling from above, it abruptly became a formation.
Gong Gong only let the archers squat down after two rounds of shooting, and the shield warriors were still guarding them.
He couldn't hear the order from the other side, and he couldn't see the change of the command flag on the other side. He just felt that the array of arrows shot seemed to be much less, but he got up in a hurry.
Lian Po saw that the offensive was overwhelmed by the opposite side, thought for a while, and pulled out his right hand holding the sword. With the bronze sword shining in the sun, Lian Po's voice seemed to become agitated:
"Pass down the command! The arrows are not stopping, the battalion of dead soldiers, charge!"
The arrow array was broken for a while, and thanks to Wu's endless firepower suppression, as long as the crossbowman was exhausted, the pawns holding torches beside him would quickly make up for it.
The dead soldiers' camp rushed towards the closed gate of Hangu Pass.
They naturally knew what was waiting for them in front of them, but they could only charge.
There was only a "click", and countless soldiers of the death camp fell down. Before the screams came, they were penetrated by the vertical wooden sticks in the pit.
The soldiers of the Death Soldiers Battalion pushed back one after the other, they didn't have any equipment, as long as they went down, they would surely die.
The coalition's arrow array seemed to be stopped by the commotion, and it was in chaos.
How could Gong Gong let go of such an opportunity, the sword danced, and countless arrows rained down again, reaping the lives of countless coalition soldiers.
Chen Xuan watched the two sides fight back and forth from the sky, feeling a little bored, and he didn't feel any emotion about the cruel war.
The battlefield in the era of cold weapons may not be as destructive as hot weapons, but it is definitely a bit more cruel than hot weapons, at least, it seems so.
Countless coalition troops were shot through by crossbows and landed on the ground.Countless Hangu guards were shot down, and one by one fell to the ground and fell into minced meat.
For the two, this was just a trial, and neither of them played their last cards.
No matter how fierce the fight ahead was, none of that had much to do with Ying Zheng.
Yingzheng is now being watched in the mansion by people sent by Mr. Mo, and he probably cannot go up the city wall.
"Damn it, Chen Xuan, why don't you come pick me up?!"
Ying Zheng's teeth itch, if he had known, he would not have told Mr. Mo that he was going up the city wall, otherwise he would not have been seen here.
