Chapter 507: Cochin to Cochin

The first moment was terrifying. There is nothing more pitiful than a group of panicked defeated soldiers. They are scrambling to retreat. They screamed and ran, and many fell. The soldiers who had been shot and shot didn't know what they were doing, but instinctively kept retreating towards the wide open city gate behind them.

General Nguyen Genwang was in the middle of the Chinese army, and he could see farther away than ordinary people on his horse, so he naturally knew what had happened at that moment just now.

The sudden explosion of the grenade was a surprise to him. Seeing a large number of Iron Shield soldiers fall to the ground, he had a bad feeling. It's just that before he can give the military order, the whole army will be in chaos.

"Resist me, rush up, they are fewer than ours, as long as we rush up, we can win." As he shouted, he slashed his saber at the retreating soldiers, hoping to halt the retreat of the army.

It's just that under the fear of death, how many people will listen to his words? How many people have heard it? How many people will hear it and listen to it in their hearts?

The retreating crowd was uncontrollable, and even if Ruan Gengwang had killed four or five retreating Jiaozhi soldiers in a row, he still couldn't recover the decline of this defeat.

Not only that, Ruan Gengwang, who swung the knife again and again, also became the target of Tiance.

Riding on a horse and being above everyone else is a privilege of the general, but at the same time, it will inevitably become a prominent target in the eyes of others. Tiance put the target on him, holding the Ninety-Five Style with both hands steadily, and holding the gun in a half-kneeling position.

Adjusting his breath, aiming between three points and a line, his fingers lightly touched the gun's plate, and then his shoulder shook, which was the recoil from the bullet.

"Horn"

In the chaos, no one would pay attention to these two gunshots at all, but these two gunshots, after the first shot missed the target, the second shot hit the target, and Ruan Gengwang, who was still waving his knife and scolding the retreating soldiers, felt a pain in his chest, and then the whole person's breath became rapid. After the figure only swayed twice on the horse, the man did not have the strength to grasp the horse and fell from above.

Under the tide of retreat, once a person falls, the consequences are very serious. Ruan Gengwang, who was shot, would not have died immediately, but when he fell to the ground and countless big feet stepped on him, Mo said that there was no more breath of anger, just to say that the whole person's face became unrecognizable, and at that moment, he was completely trampled to death.

Nguyen Gengwang's fall from his horse and death represented a complete retreat of the 20,000 Cochin troops, and in the absence of anyone to stop them, the Cochin troops were running backwards frantically, and less than 100 meters behind them, 500 mercenaries with muskets were constantly pursuing, leaving behind the lives of some of the last Cochin soldiers.

This seemed to have become a talisman, chasing the defeated soldiers to escape more and more slowly, and they were all afraid that they would be killed if they ran slowly.

In the scramble, stampedes happen from time to time. No matter who loses the balance of gravity and falls to the ground, it will inevitably be trampled to death.

Behind the Tiance company commander, the battalion commander Kong Quanxin saw the overall situation and made a decision, and immediately shouted to the three buglers who had been waiting for a long time not far away: "Blow the trumpet of the charge, all attack!" ”

"Toot beet, beet, beet..."

The loud and refreshing trumpet of the charge sounded, and the more than 3,000 mercenaries rushed forward after shouting, and they rushed forward as fast as they could, as fast as they could, as if the situation before them seemed to tell them that if they took one step at night, they would lose an unknown amount of military merit in front of them.

Compared with the charge of the whole army of the mercenaries, on the tower of Hanoi City, the crown prince Li Yuanlong staggered, if it wasn't for the chief of the guard on the side to help him, I am afraid that everyone would have fallen to the ground on the side.

"Defeated, defeated." The figure was just standing firm, and Li Yuanlong muttered in his mouth.

"Your Royal Highness the Crown Prince, the last general is willing to close the city gate immediately." The famous general Fan Yuhai's expression is also very ugly. But fortunately, he has led the troops to fight for many years, but he is not as unbearable as the prince.

"The last general seconded." Another general, Huang Hua, also clenched his fists and bowed his head and said, obviously he also saw that if this continued, I was afraid that the defeated army Ruan Gengwang's troops were likely to attract mercenaries to follow into the city.

Listening to the two generals expressing the same opinion, a look of struggle flashed on Li Yuanlong's face. But soon he still made a decision, gritted his teeth and said: "The prince ordered to close the city gate. ”

This order means that the 20,000 Jiaozhi soldiers outside the city have been completely abandoned.

Nguyen Gengwang died, and his soldiers turned and ran like headless flies, hoping to enter the city of Hanoi as quickly as possible to save their lives. But then, the scene I saw turned out to be that the east gate began to close from the inside, and the heavy city gate made a creaking and unpleasant sound, and it was closing rapidly.

"No!" Seeing that the only way out is about to be blocked. At least more than 10,000 Jiaozhi soldiers were red-eyed. Some had desperate expressions in their eyes, others quickened their runs, hoping that they would be able to rush into the city at the last moment, while others ran to the unattended catapult, which was already running and was unattended, and then everyone worked together to change the direction of the heavy catapult.

"If they have abandoned us, then we are not to blame for fighting in our own way." With a shout, a well-known commander commanded his soldiers to put the boulder into the trebuchet and began to blast towards the city of Hanoi behind him.

While booming, the commander also shouted to the mercenary pursuers who were getting closer and closer, "We have surrendered, and we are willing to help you take Hanoi City and make meritorious contributions for your crimes!" ”

Such a shout quickly got a response from many Jiaozhi soldiers. In order to survive, they must make a gesture at this time.

"Stop shooting!" The company commander Tian Ce, who had already changed to the fourth magazine, saw the changes in front of him and immediately stopped the advancing mercenaries.

Originally, he wanted to follow the Jiaozhi army into Hanoi City. This is also the military order he set up in front of the battalion commander Kong Quanxin. But when he saw the city gate closed in advance from afar, he was anxious in his heart, although he still had a back hand, but after all, it was more troublesome. But now looking at the mutation in front of him, he suddenly had an idea in his heart, why not use these defeated soldiers to help him attack the city?

The four hundred people around him are all treasures, and it is naturally best to sacrifice one less.

Tiance, who had made up his mind, then shouted forward in accordance with the situation, "But all the Jiaozhi soldiers who help the mercenaries to attack the city are regarded as scapegoats, and they will not be killed!" Others who still want to resist will be killed! ”

The four hundred soldiers who were originally stopped still didn't understand what Tiance was thinking, but now when they heard his shouting, they all understood, and in the next time, they shouted loudly with Tiance that there was no forgiveness for resisting and killing, and the attack was a slogan of substitution for the crime.

The soldiers who were already cornered, seeing that there was an extra chance before death, would not grasp it with all their might. The next one by one ran to the trebuchet and began to help counterattack the castle tower of Hanoi.

These catapults were used to prevent mercenary attacks. The location is very close to the Hanoi City Tower, not even fifty meters. Now that it is used as a tool to counterattack the city gate, you can imagine how much of a threat it will be. When a random boulder was thrown away, it flew over the city tower and fell into the city of Hanoi, just this boulder, the city does not know how many innocents will be harmed.

"Bastard, bastard, give me arrows and kill them." Seeing that these defeated soldiers actually helped the mercenaries against him, the crown prince Li Yuanlong's face was very ugly, and he roared hoarsely.

The prince spoke, although he knew that the people below were soldiers of his own country, but seeing them throw boulders into the city one by one, he didn't know how many people were killed and injured, Fan Yuhai and Huang Hua and other generals also gritted their teeth, and said in a fierce voice, "Release the arrow!" ”

After a few breaths, arrows rained down, and for a while, the city outside the city was lively. On the contrary, it made the Tiance Company Commander who followed behind them not in a hurry.

"Company commander, should we help the handle." A Leng Feng platoon commander under his command couldn't help but ask with some itchy hands when he saw that the fighting between the Jiaozhi soldiers and their own people was so lively.

"Don't worry, the dog bites the dog's hair, waiting for them to be less powerful and doing it." Not only did Tiance speak in no hurry, but the whole person simply sat on the ground, taking advantage of the gap between the war to take a good rest.

With Tiance Company Commander taking the lead, the other 500 mercenaries also sat on the ground, holding their guns in their hands one by one, looking at the lively scene two hundred meters away, and pointing from time to time.

When he waited for the battalion commander Kong Quanxin behind him to rush over with the main force, what he saw was the scene in front of him.

It's just that Kong Quanxin didn't mean to reprimand Tiance, maybe he also thought the same way. So while he was commanding the troops, he took advantage of this time to take a good rest, and at the same time asked people to call Tiance in front of him.

"The battle just now was good, and we played the majesty of our cold front, what are you going to do next?" Pointing to the flat ground beside him, while signaling that Tiance could sit down, Kong Quanxin asked out loud.

What should be done, Kong Quanxin naturally knows in his heart. But I still asked, but I just had the heart to take the exam. As the mercenaries continue to grow, the ranks and systems of the ranks are getting higher and higher. It was only a matter of time before a person like him with military achievements and experience rose to the top. But if you can sit in a high position, it depends on whether there are people who can use it. Obviously, at this moment, he was cultivating Tiance as a confidant.
