Without any extra words, Kang Jianguo stood up, and the broad saber in his hand suddenly inserted into the stomach of his back. He pulled a ladder next to him with one hand, raised it with all his strength, and roared angrily: "The Guards are following me. Come!"
Before he finished speaking, two guards rushed to help Kang Jianguo push the ladder and ran along the road. Dozens of people behind him, led by the coach, immediately gathered around several ladders and followed the coach. The charge of this small group of troops did not attract the attention of the Hanoverian soldiers on the city wall. In such a fierce confrontation, just a few dozen people are not enough to change the situation. No matter how powerful you are, under the strength of the group, you It is still so small that it can be ignored, but they ignore one thing. The charm of leaders is often infinite.
Although the Jerok Army led by Kang Jianguo did not achieve any impressive results among the legions under Li Wufeng, and Kang Jianguo himself never had any outstanding military exploits, Kang Jianguo was an approachable person, and he especially liked to mingle with middle- and lower-level officers and soldiers. The soldiers also all know that he was promoted step by step from a private to the position of regiment commander. His down-to-earth footsteps allowed him to win a sense of recognition that other regiment leaders could hardly obtain.
As Kang Jianguo personally led the guards to join the trenches, the long-depressed silence of the entire Tang army finally got a crazy outbreak, whether it was the sniper soldiers fighting to the death on the city wall, or the ordinary soldiers struggling to attack under the city wall, or the Using a few long-range weapons to suppress the enemy's archers and catapult operators on the city wall, at this moment, all the fighting spirit was released like never before.
Kang Jianguo didn't have much time to think about anything else at this time. With his eyes red, he only had one thought, which was to seize the city head and put the Golden Roc Flag on it, so that the Golden Roc Flag would always be planted on the top of the ancient city of Bam.
The thin light armor made Kang Jianguo feel as light as a swallow. Before the stack of pulley ladders reached the city wall, Kang Jianguo was the first to jump on the ladder and climb up. Arrows and gravel fell like raindrops on his head, and the impact hit Kang Jianguo's high shield with a thumping sound, and the huge The impact force also made Kang Jianguo have to pay hard work every step he climbed up.
"If you go up, you live, if you retreat, you die!" The roar that burst out from the throat was repeated several times before turning into a sound wave array under the city wall, rumbling around the ancient city of Bam. Almost all the soldiers of the Tang Army shouted this A replica of the slogan that fails or succeeds. Gritting their teeth and swarming forward, the war entered its climax, and the balance of victory and defeat seemed to begin to waver at this moment.
When Kang Jianguo finally chopped down a Hanoverian soldier who was thrusting his spear at him, he was finally able to leap to the top of the city and feel the reality under his feet. With a wild roar, he used the momentum of leaping high from the crenel with his broad-bladed saber. , suddenly drew a huge cross-cutting technique in the air, and the sword energy that penetrated the body was mixed with strong evil energy and burst out. The two Hanoverian soldiers who were rushing to catch up had not even had time to scream, and they were killed by the sword. Split into four pieces. The colorful liver, gallbladder, brain and intestines mixed with the fishy blood and mucus dripped all over the city wall, making people almost nauseous.
As soon as the sword was released, Kang Jianguo became even more murderous. Driven by the bloody sword skills, the broad-bladed saber suddenly turned into a huge death scythe, frantically harvesting the lives of the Hanoverian soldiers who were swarming in. The spears and short knives almost touched each other. Following Kang Jianguo's circular blades, they turned into broken branches and broken bodies. He saw soldiers behind Kang Jianguo jumping out from several adjacent ladders to join the battle group. The Hanwei soldiers were also very anxious. If this situation continued, I'm afraid it wouldn't be long before the city would change hands. But if you want to curb the opponent's momentum. It was necessary to deal with this crazy guy in front of him, but the man in front of him was full of swords and no one could get close to him. They saw him advancing the attack range step by step, but the Hanoverian soldiers had to fight against the cold wind of his swords. How could this not make the officers behind the Hanoverian soldiers become furious if they flinched in front of them.
Burley soon discovered the situation here. The reserve team sent for reinforcements was unable to stop the opponent's steadily advancing offensive, which made him feel extremely surprised and nervous. Such a small force was able to withstand the killing of its own elite reserve team, and instead became more and more courageous with each battle. If the soldiers of the Tang Army were like this, I am afraid that the outcome of this battle would not have to continue. After a brief glance at Burley, he discovered that the central figure of the opponent was the dashing man in the middle. Although he couldn't tell who the opponent was, he could imagine that this guy was no ordinary officer. He could kill this guy. This may greatly dampen the spirit of the Tang army.
Kang Jianguo, who became more and more courageous as he fought more and more, did not realize that the Hanoverian army had regarded him as a target that was eager to eradicate him. The bloody sword technique of wide opening and closing in his hands added a bit of momentum, and the silver-white sword curtain turned into a Circles of blue-grey sword waves spread outward layer by layer. The Hanoverian soldiers were unable to resist this elite display of Tang Dynasty martial arts. The sharp blades forced the circle formed by dozens of people to close.
While Kang Jianguo was showing off his power, several ladders had already sent dozens of guards up to the city wall. Most of these personal guards had a good foundation in martial arts, coupled with Kang Jianguo's hard training, not only in Wuzhi There are usually more soldiers at high places, and their discipline and cooperation are better than those of snipers who are good at fighting alone. Three or two of them joined forces to attack the surrounding Hanoverian soldiers, and soon tore the encirclement, which was already somewhat unsustainable under Kang Jianguo's impact, to pieces, and spread out to the surrounding areas along these ruptures. .
Seeing that under his own encouragement, the guards quickly tore a hole in the defense circle on the city wall, Kang Jianguo was inexplicably excited. He was about to rush forward, but he did not expect that more than ten Leeds longbows and Saladin Qiannu had already secured the city wall. Locking on him, maybe it was a sign of a ghost or a sign of the sixth sense. Kang Jianguo suddenly felt a wave of coldness covering his body, and subconsciously rolled forward to the ground. However, the Leeds longbowmen and Saladin specially mobilized by Burley Qiang Nu had already stood on the high ground of the city and firmly secured the entire area. A dense barrage of arrows covered the area of several square meters with Kang Jianguo as the center. He could only hear screams and screams as he guarded Kang Jianguo. The two guards were shot into a honeycomb almost immediately. Although Kang Jianguo rolled in advance to avoid the first wave of shots, the second wave of shots that followed came before Kang Jianguo could hide under the crenellations of the city wall. Hitting him, the three arrows penetrated Kang Jianguo's light armor without any hindrance and shot through his body. The blood that surged out immediately drowned Kang Jianguo.
It's just that the shooting of Kang Jianguo came too slowly, and the Tang army did not fall into chaos because of the fall of the coach. Instead, it inspired an even crazier revenge. The Tenth Army succeeded in the victory led by Kang Jianguo. After the Locke Corps attracted the main reserves, they finally made a hole in the southern city wall with difficulty. For this reason, almost none of Qiu Zicheng's guards were spared. In the end, there were only less than fifty people left in a large group of guards. It can be seen from this that The war was brutal.
On May 28, 700 in the Continental Calendar, after six consecutive days of brutal offensive and defensive battles, the Kerman Eastern Front Group of the Tang Army finally overran the Delfin White Stork Corps, which had sent reinforcements south from the Maina Province, at a huge cost. Previously, they captured the ancient city of Bam, which had been defending for a week, and completely annihilated the 30,000-strong Hanoverian First Corps that was stationed in Bam. Only less than 5,000 people were captured, and most of them were wounded. The rest were all killed in the war. After the four divisions of the Tang Army's Kerman Eastern Front Cluster captured the ancient city of Bam, only less than 40,000 of the original 90,000 troops were able to fight. In addition to nearly 40,000 In addition to those who died in the battle, there were more than 10,000 lightly and seriously injured people in urgent need of treatment. Therefore, the ancient city of Mu was named Blood City to prove that the war was so brutal that day that the entire ancient city was soaked with the blood of the soldiers.
After this battle, the Tang Army's cluster east of Kerman actually lost the ability to launch another attack. The cluster commander Kang Jianguo and the deputy commander Qiu Zicheng both couldn't afford to be injured. Cui Wenxiu had to appoint the second commander of the Jerok Army. Jin Zecheng, commander of the Third Division, serves as the temporary commander of the Kerman Eastern Front Group.
Although the Kerman Eastern Front Group has lost the ability to launch another offensive, controlling the ancient city of Bam has actually controlled the entire eastern Kerman and directly threatens the main force of the Hanoverian Second Corps, which is still fighting fiercely in the southern part of Kerman. At the same time, at the initiative of the Zahudin family, the Yakuan nomads in the Kerman and Fahan desert areas who had been bribed by the Tang Dynasty began to harass the Hansen Allied Forces in the west of Kerman and Fahan. supply lines, and gradually developed to the point of openly destroying the supply points of the Hansen Alliance Army, expelling and killing Yakuan officials who were pro-Hansen Alliance. This operation directly caused the situation in the entire Kerman and Fahan provinces to fall into chaos. .
The Delphin White Stork Corps, which had already entered the Kerman Province, quickly returned to Blue Castle after learning that the ancient city of Bam had been lost and 30,000 Hanoverian First Corps had been raped. At the same time, the Seventh Corps was in Under Cui Wenxiu's strict orders, they advanced fiercely at all costs in the eastern part of the Khura Province, forcing the remaining Hanoverian First Corps to withdraw from the eastern part of the Khura Province and retreat to the Maina Province. Indo-Germany, who could not make a breakthrough in the Dexin Province, After obtaining Cui Wenxiu's consent, the An Army Corps only left two divisions to maintain contact with the Thuringian Second Corps at the end of the Alborz Mountains, and the remaining three divisions went south into the Huluo Province. , and joined forces with the Seventh Army to advance eastward and form a semi-arc encirclement of the Maina Province.
