Chapter 164 Death Battle, Death Battle

Lu Xiangsheng looked at the white belly of the fish in the sky, slowly pulled out his war knife and said to the left and right: "This is our last chance."

This battle! Win! ”

The generals who had been following him for a long time also slowly drew their knives, without making a sound, but followed the man in front of them with extremely firm steps.

He may not have gold and silver treasures, nor high-ranking officials, but he can make people proud.

I heard that as long as these children enter the Yushan Academy in Lantian County, the family will not have to worry about his future, and when the children graduate from the Yushan Academy, the family will prosper.

This is the benefit that Dashuai exchanged for the freedom of his two cousins, and in the next ten years, Dashuai's two talented and wealthy cousins need to enter Yushan Academy to teach.

Lu Xiangsheng understood that this was an important part of Yun Zhao's continued implementation of his disgusting plan to mix sand.

That is what Yun Zhao calls diversification.

Although Lu Xiangsheng still doesn't quite understand what diversity means, this does not prevent him from understanding these three words through his own thinking.

To put it bluntly, I just don't want Xu's knowledge to dominate in Yushan Academy.

The so-called diversification is actually mixing sand, and it is also engaging in power balance.

At this point, Lu Xiangsheng understands Yun Zhao very well.

Monopoly is definitely not a good thing for a country, as long as it starts to monopolize, relatively, the monopoly person's right to speak will be raised.

Yun Zhao may trust Xu Yuanshou, but Yun Zhao will definitely not trust Xu Yuanshou's successor so much, no matter who this person is.

Driven by the vanguard officer, Lu Xiangsheng's horse speed was constantly improving, and looking at the Jiannu cavalry that came into view, Lu Xiangsheng retracted what he was thinking, and focused all his attention on the enemy in front of him.

When the two cavalry collided together, Lu Xiangsheng shouted and slashed the long knife in his hand......

Li Dingguo entered the enemy line a quarter of an hour before Lu Xiangsheng, and when he came out of the col with 800 cavalry wrapped in horses' hooves, Jizig was planning today's battle plan.

In half an hour, a thousand women and children drawn from the Ming slaves will arrive, and today, he decided to use the corpses of these women and children to fill the hateful trenches of the Ming army, and coerce these women and children so that the Ming soldiers on the mountain do not dare to use what kind of landing and explosion at will.

When the arrangement was completed, a warning arrow burst into the air.

Jizig didn't laugh angrily, raised his long knife and said to his subordinates: "We didn't attack, they went down the mountain instead, hahaha...... Let's go, go and kill these bright dogs. ”

Then his voice was drowned out by a loud bang.

No matter how strong the wooden wall is, it can't withstand the bombardment of hundreds of catties of gunpowder, the smoke of gunpowder dissipated, Li Dingguo's war horse has appeared in the gap of the walled city, he did not rush to attack the panicked Jianzhou people, but pierced the leather pocket hanging on the horse's belly with a knife, and saw the fire oil flowing out of the leather pocket, he led his subordinates to avoid the Jianzhou people and advanced to the depths of the walled city.

After a circle around the small walled city of Zizig, he discarded the empty leather bag and launched an attack on the already lined up Zizig.

In the face of the five-inch thick plank, the effect of the grenade was very small, and although it blew up the Jizige army formation, the real lethality was not as great as Li Dingguo expected.

Therefore, in the face of the hedgehog-like heavy infantry phalanx of Jizig, Li Dingguo's cavalry could only turn in circles to find the weak point of the military formation and wait for an opportunity to attack.

However, Zizig used a two-wheeled cart outside the military formation, and also added a high thick wooden plank on the cart to block the attack of muskets, this kind of car could rotate at will, no matter how Li Dingguo's light cavalry rotated, the thick plank always faced the cavalry, blocking Li Dingguo's cavalry attack.

If that were enough, behind the planks was a dense row of spears, which were a foot and a half long, and the cavalry had to face these spears first if they wanted to charge into battle.

After the cavalry circled around the army formation of more than 1,000 people in Jizige, they retreated in unison, and Jizige, who was standing in the military formation, laughed loudly, waved his knife and pointed in the direction where Li Dingguo was: "Attack!" ”

The grenade was once again thrown out of the hands of the cavalry, but this time, Jizig did not dodge, and even pushed away the two-wheeled cart and rushed towards Li Dingguo without fear.

The grenade fell in the military formation of the Jianzhou people, constantly making a roar, and from time to time the Jianzhou people fell to the ground, or were blown up, but unfortunately, there was still no way to stop the pace of the Jianzhou people's advance.

Seeing this, Zizig shouted happily again, the grenade did not hurt the armored man wearing three layers of heavy armor as much as expected.

Li Dingguo looked at the fire that had just ignited and shouted: "Those dead women and children, open your eyes and see what will happen to the enemy who killed you!" ”

As he spoke, he took a leather bag from the back of his horse and threw it into the ring of fire, and the rest of the cavalry did the same, and the flame that seemed to be a little faint just now, after the leather bag fell into the flames, the flames more than a foot high immediately rose a foot high.

Zhang Guofeng, who rushed in later, shouted anxiously: "Throw all the oil into it!" ”

So, the leather bag was thrown into the ring of fire like raindrops.

A fire broke out on the ground......

"Let's go, we still have to continue to attack the Yuetuo camp, don't waste time here."

Li Dingguo saw that the fire was complete, and occasionally saw the Jianzhou people in the fire ring crashing like headless ants, so he ignored this place and was the first to attack the even taller walled city.

The sky-high fire in the northwest corner of the barracks was seen by Yue Tuo, and he smashed his fist on the table with hatred and roared: "What is Jizige doing? If the city is breached, take the head of Jige on the spot and then destroy the small Ming army. ”

A lean man knelt down on one knee and said yes, and hurriedly left the Chinese military tent.

As the commander of the battalion, the 2,000 men under the command of Saichi had already been prepared, and they hurriedly set off to the northwest corner of the battalion with Saichi.

As soon as Saichi left the Chinese army, the scouts hurriedly broke into Yue Tuo's Chinese army commander's tent, and a series of enemy attacks made Yue Tuo quiet.

He took a sip of tea and said lightly to his generals: "Tens of thousands of cavalry are coming from the north, and there will be a pillar of incense to arrive at the outer camp, Bachi, you go to supervise the battle, defeat the enemy, and after the enemy's forward is frustrated, send your cavalry to outflank from both wings."

Eight Chi took the order and turned around and left the big tent.

Yue Tuoyou looked at the white-bearded veteran Wogu who was the first person standing on the left and said: "Old Wogu, give you 6,000 cavalry, garrison the Chinese army, and support Bachi and Dudu at any time." ”

The veteran Wogu bowed down to receive the order and also left the big tent of the Chinese army.

With a series of military orders issued by Yue Tuo, the generals in the military tent left one after another. Yue Tuo said to Fan Wencheng, who was deep in thought: "What does Gong Wencheng think? ”

Fan Wencheng said in a low voice: "I can't guess!" ”

Yue Tuo smiled: "I can't guess either, the field is not the strength of the Ming people, and I don't understand why they would abandon the fortress that has been built to attack my camp."

Could it be that the county magistrate of Lantian County really thought that he was strong enough to defeat my Yue Tuo in a field battle?

However, it was learned from the military newspaper that almost all the men and horses in the attack camp were cavalry, and there were no infantry troops.

My Qing army is not those grass robbers of the Ming Kingdom, and they will scatter and flee after being charged by cavalry, and the war will definitely continue.

Once the cavalry loses its suddenness and stalemates on the battlefield, there is no advantage for him to take advantage of.

Wen Chenggong, you are also from the south, tell me, what is the truth of this? ”

Fan Wencheng shook his head and said, "This is beyond the reach of a minion. ”

As the two of them spoke, another soldier sent a military report, Yue Tuo glanced at it, and slammed his fist on the table, furious.

Fan Wencheng's butt carefully left the chair, stretched his neck to look at Yue Tuo and said, "Baylor, but the battle ahead is not good?" ”

Yue Tuo sighed and said, "Sai Chi, who has just arrived at the northwest corner of the camp, reports that the entire army of Jizige has been annihilated......

Fan Wencheng asked cautiously: "General Jizige's enemy is less than a thousand, can it be said that the enemy army has come to reinforce troops?" ”

Yue Tuo said angrily: "The opponent is only 800 cavalry, and now he is fighting with Saichi, the whole army of Jizige died strangely, it was actually trapped by a small fire ring, the people close to the fire circle were roasted out of human oil, and the people in the center of the fire circle, including Ji Jige, were all suffocated to death, and they still maintained a complete military formation before they died, and the scene was miserable. ”

Fan Wencheng was about to speak, when he suddenly felt that the earth was trembling, and then there was a continuous sound of violent explosions from the north.

Yue Tuo picked up the waist knife resting on the table and put it on his body, and said to Fan Wencheng: "Is Gong Wencheng willing to go with Ben Shuai?" ”

Fan Wencheng arched his hand and said: "Please give Baylor armor and weapons, although Wen Cheng is a scholar, he can also go to the battlefield to contribute to my great clearance." ”

Yue Tuo laughed and said to Fan Wencheng: "I have to say that the literati of the Great Ming Kingdom seem to be more useful than the generals.

There are people who are dedicated to planning the world for my Qing Dynasty, and there are also people who are enemies of my Qing Dynasty, which is really strange! ”

Fan Wencheng said with a smile: "It's all because I read the book of sages. ”

Yue Tuo was stunned for a moment, and immediately laughed and said, "What Gong Wen Cheng said is true. ”

After Fan Wencheng finished wearing his armor, he hurriedly chased Yue Tuo, who was far away, to the north.

Lu Xiangsheng was as brave as a lion in the chaotic army, and the big green horse under his crotch carried him like a monster in the chaotic army.

"Boom!"

Lu Xiangsheng raised his hand and fired a shot with a firearm, and Da Peng's lead bullet cleared him of the enemy in front of his horse, and Da Qing Ma crushed the head of a Jiannu, ending his suffering.

"Onward!"

Lu Xiangsheng shouted, hung up the firecracker, picked up the long knife and charged the second line of defense hastily formed by the Jianzhou people, behind him, countless Tianxiong soldiers abandoned the enemy in front of them, chased Lu Xiangsheng on horseback, and pounced on the enemy together.

Arrows like flying locusts......

The Tianxiong army that rushed to the front fell off their horses one after another, and the two guards guarding Lu Xiangsheng also slowly fell off the back of their horses, revealing Lu Xiangsheng who was full of feathered arrows.

"Rush!"

Lu Xiangsheng screamed, at this moment, he seemed to have forgotten his identity as the governor of Xuanda, and just wanted to break through the line of defense in front of him, as long as he defeated these people, behind him was the Ming slave camp set up by Jiannu.

The hind legs of the big green horse are strong and powerful, and he jumped over the lodging human corpse, the horse corpse, the front legs just landed, and a thick crossbow spear penetrated the chest of the big green horse, and the front hooves of the big green horse fell to the ground weakly, and the head was clubbed on the ground, and the volley was somersaulted, and then it fell to the ground and was silent.

Lu Xiangsheng fell off his horse, rolled on the ground a few times, and the feather arrows inserted in the armor broke one after another, and before he had time to stand up, Lu Xiangsheng lit a grenade hanging on the armor and threw it out.

The grenade exploded, but Lu Xiangsheng only heard an inaudible explosion in his ears, and he saw with his own eyes that the grenade blew up two Jiannu...... The explosion was effective, and five taels of silver did not have white flowers.

He wanted to stand up, but one leg was weak and he couldn't use his strength, he looked around anxiously, only to see a large group of Tianxiong troops rushing past him and killing the enemy formation.

"Kill!"

Lu Xiangsheng shouted with all his might, but his voice was distant, as if he was from another world.

He leaned sideways, dragging his body with his arms and moving on.

A war horse stopped beside him, but it was his brother Lu Xiangxian, who dragged Lu Xiangsheng up and wanted to send him on the horse.

"I'm hurt, you, forward! Pierce through enemy lines! ”

Lu Xiangsheng pushed his brother away vigorously, and pointed to the Tianxiong Army in front of him, who was fighting fiercely, and said to Lu Xiang.

Lu Xiangxian jumped on the war horse with a strange scream, ignited the gunpowder bag on the horse's buttocks, and the pilot's war horse rushed towards the densest place in the Jiannu formation.

Arrows are like flying locusts.

Countless feather arrows clanged on Lu Xiangxian's armor, and some feathered arrows drilled through the cracks in the armor.

A flying axe slashed at Lu Xiangxian's heart guard, the heart guard suddenly shattered, he looked up to the sky and spit out a mouthful of blood and rolled off the horse's back, seeing the war horse rushing into the enemy formation, his eyes were black for a while, and he vomited a mouthful of blood, and his head fell weakly on the ground.

"Boom, boom, boom, boom......"

Countless explosions came from the Jiannu army array, and a blood rain suddenly fell in the sky.

The blood rain fell on Lu Xiangsheng, who was dozens of zhang away, and he looked up to the sky and laughed: "Xiao Qi, good look, good Zhang Shi, good Liu Yuzhu, good ...... my Tianxiong Army"

The rain of blood also fell on Dudu Belle's body, and he saw that the battlefield in front of him was shrouded in black smoke, and gritted his teeth and said to his general: "Stop Lu Xiangsheng, he is crazy." ”

The general shouted, and hundreds of soldiers in white armor left Du Du's side, passed through the military formation that had begun to waver, and came to the front.

Chopping sabers, spears up to a foot long, giant axes, and halberds formed a storm of steel in front of the battle, and everywhere the storm went, men and horses were shattered.

With this group of white-armored soldiers in the way, the military formation that had just been somewhat scattered was once again stabilized.

Lu Xiangsheng climbed onto an ownerless war horse, looked at the gradually retreating Tianxiong army, and turned his head to the rear.

A sharp brass horn sounded, and the Tianxiong army, who were struggling to support in front of the battle, threw out the last grenade in their hands, and then turned their horses' heads and quickly retreated.

Lu Xiangsheng saw his brother Lu Xiangxian lying in the middle of a pile of corpses, as if there was no sign of life.

With tears in his eyes, he turned his horse's head and retreated backwards surrounded by his subordinates.

Seeing that Lu Xiangsheng's banner was dragged away by the standard-bearer, Du Du couldn't help laughing, waved his knife and pointed at the direction of Lu Xiangsheng's escape and shouted: "Pursuit!" ”

Lu Xiangsheng saw that Du Du had left the fortified camp, and those white-armored soldiers methodically threw the short spears they were carrying on their backs, and one after another the cavalry of the Tianxiong Army rolled off their horses, and couldn't help but look up to the sky and shout: "Yun Zhao, if your artillery can't give me an explanation, you have to give me an explanation!" ”

The enemy pursued the Tianxiong army and finally came to a flat wilderness.

Lu Xiangsheng packed up the Tianxiong army and stopped again, facing the enemy who was about to come.

Du Du's pursuers soon appeared on this plain, and after glancing at Lu Xiangsheng's thin cavalry formation, Du Du laughed and said, "Lu Xiangsheng, you lured me to the flat land, do you want to use your cavalry to raid me again?" ”

Lu Xiangsheng didn't say a word, controlling the war horse to slowly retreat, until a black cannon barrel suddenly appeared beside him, and Du Du felt that something was wrong.

The army wanted to turn around, but it was too late, and when all the cavalry of Lu Xiangsheng retreated, a dense cannon muzzle appeared in front of Du Du's eyes.

"Retreat!"

Dudu's voice was interrupted by the muffled sound of artillery, a cannon spat out a puff of yellow flames, and two cannonballs chained together spun and fired almost horizontally against the ground.

In an instant, it smashed into the military formation of the Jianzhou people, and this chain bullet opened a clearing in the dense military formation of the Jianzhou people, and when the kinetic energy of the chain bullet disappeared and smashed into the ground, some of the corpses of Jiannu who were cut off by the chain bullet slowly fell to the ground.

"Spread out, ......"

Du Du shouted loudly, and the rest of the Jiannu generals waved the flag in their hands desperately, but unfortunately, it was too late, and the artillery had not stopped since the first roar.

The distance of 400 paces is the best distance for artillery to fire.

Du Du watched as the fierce and invincible white-armored soldiers were bombarded by artillery, and the sturdy armor on their bodies was torn apart by cannonballs like a piece of paper, and then their bodies were shattered.

Sixty-two artillery pieces, this is Yun Zhao's strongest force to support Lu Xiangsheng, and it is also Lu Xiangsheng's greatest reliance on daring to face the collision with the Jiannu army.

Solid shells, chain shells, shotguns, flowering shells, the gunners from Lantian County did not miss the experimental work of any kind of shells.

At this time, the significance of the experiment is far greater than the operation.

Solid bullets can be used to siege cities and are of little significance in field battles......

Chain bullets can be used against enemy formations in dense formations, and they work wonders......

Whether a shotgun can kill or injure the enemy at a distance of 400 paces depends on the will of God...... It is recommended to use it only in melee combat in the future.

Blossom Bullet - The effect is wonderful, especially between 400 and 700 steps at a controllable landing point, which is the most powerful.

As the gunners gradually summed up enough experience, black and red flowers composed of gunsmoke bloomed in Du Du's army.

Lu Xiangsheng looked at the group of troops on the opposite side who had just made the Tianxiong army suffer enough, and now they were powerless to fight back under the bombardment of artillery, so he sighed: "This is the war......

The military doctor who was tying a splint to Lu Xiangsheng's leg said: "As soon as the cannon goes out, ten taels of silver will be gone, and the flowering bullet is the most expensive, costing twelve taels."

At this moment, the tens of thousands of taels of silver in my county were gone. ”

Such words are all to Lu Xiangsheng, who has just lost his brother.

He looked at the military doctor and said, "Go and ask your superiors, why can't you hear their movements?" ”

The military doctor looked at Lu Xiangsheng, who spoke loudly, suspiciously, and said, "I am the biggest officer in the artillery team, huh?" Something wrong with your ears? ”

Lu Xiangsheng covered his ears, and two wisps of blood flowed out of his ears.

He looked down at the blood on his hands and said slowly: "Not dying on the battlefield is the biggest mistake in my life." ”

The military doctor said loudly: "Don't worry, after the shelling is over, this place will be handed over to you to deal with, with such a big military feat, no one can do anything to you." ”

Lu Xiangsheng shook his head and said: "You don't understand, it's a torment to live in this world for a long time!" ”
