Chapter 490: Massacre
After a rain of arrows, the rebels began to retreat one after another.
Liu Mingzhi stood on the high platform and sighed in disappointment: "Doesn't it seem stupid?" Knowing the limitations of the terrain, you can't rush up, otherwise you will be a live target for your side. ”
"Give the order, carry the wounded soldiers down for treatment, and the reservists will replenish them immediately."
Some of the soldiers in the Longmen Great Array began to rush to save the wounded.
"Brothers, see, the 400,000 rebels are nothing more than chickens and dogs, and they are not vulnerable at all, do you have the confidence to defeat the enemy?"
Liu Mingzhi gave the 70,000-strong army a morale boost at the right time.
The herald immediately conveyed Liu Mingzhi's words in the language of the Jin Kingdom.
There was a sudden earth-shaking cry from the Longmen Great Array, the morale was high, and the fighting spirit was indignant.
The 70,000 people who were still panicking before reaped the results of tens of thousands of rebels in a wave of arrows, and they had already made them fanatical.
"Quiet, the second wave of attack is coming soon, you must carefully follow the orders of your standard-bearers, and the changes in attack and defense cannot be neglected."
The herald conveyed Liu Mingzhi's words.
In the end, it was the Praetorian Guards guarding the Imperial City, and the military appearance was extraordinary, and after a while, the Longmen Great Array quieted down.
Liu Mingzhi frowned and looked at the rebels in the tube.
The reason why Fang Cai was able to achieve such a victory is inseparable from the rebels' eagerness for quick success.
Now that they knew the disadvantage of the terrain, it was impossible to kill the rebels like harvesting wheat, and the next battle would be difficult.
"King Jinsha, it's all you, if it weren't for your king's soldiers, how could they be shot by a rain of arrows and kill tens of thousands of people, you deserve to die."
Wanyan Kemu looked at Jin Wutu angrily, and he couldn't wait to eat his heart.
"Your men were shot by a rain of arrows, and my soldiers were swallowed up by thousands in the swamp? They didn't die on the way to the charge, but the king should be on fire. ”
"That's what you asked for, this king said that this king will take the lead first, why don't you discuss with this king, so you rushed up, occupied all the space, and couldn't pull the formation How to fight!"
"You thought it was you who took the lead, who agreed, I can't complain about this king, don't think that this king doesn't know what bad ideas you are thinking."
"Okay, noisy, this king has already told you, don't be careless and despise the enemy, it's okay now, you have to suffer a big loss to understand, why bother in the first place if you knew it was like this."
Wan Yanlie looked at the two with a gloomy expression, but there was a hint of joy in his eyes, and it disappeared in a flash.
The more Jinsha Wang Yiwang's people lose, the more beneficial it is to themselves.
"Second brother, what do you say you should do? I estimate that the terrain northwest of the capital can accommodate up to 150,000 people, and any more will enter the range of swamps. ”
Wan Yanlie pointed to the map and frowned: "Who the hell is this willow tree, the tactics are as shreck, relying on the natural danger swamp, our army can't open the formation at all." ”
King Jinsha pondered for a while: "King Jinding, in the opinion of this king, it is not enough to send a team of men and horses to attack the city, the current army in the city must be extremely empty, and it will not be able to resist for long." ”
"No, as long as the hundreds of thousands of Xiong Yanjun's troops are still there, what can we do if we attack the capital, as long as we can't get the jade seal of the country, we can't order the officials of the various state capitals of the Jin country at all."
"Storm the city, catch the little girl Wanyan, and coerce the defenders outside the city to disarm and surrender."
"Second brother, this is a good way, let's divide thirty percent of the soldiers and horses to attack the city, and the rest of the soldiers and horses will support the defenders outside the city."
"It's a good idea, how to fight, or let's make a team of three people?"
"Of course."
King Jin Jin and King Yi said in unison.
"Okay, let's discuss and start attacking the city."
After half a pillar of incense, the horn in the rebel camp sounded again, and the signal of the attack came again.
Liu Mingzhi's expression was grim, and he grabbed the order flag in his hand and waved it back and forth a few times: "Get up." ”
A moment later, a large number of rebels in the southwest of the capital began to slowly approach in the direction of the Longmen Array, and it turned out to be a pair of cavalry, numbering tens of thousands of people, covering the infantry of various configurations and began to attack.
With a wave of the command flag in Liu Mingzhi's hand, the large array began to change, the sword and shield hand squatted in the center to protect, and the spearmen and halberd soldiers with the dragon head and dragon tail began to change their formation.
Hundreds of cavalry can be wrapped in thousands of people, and it's no joke.
But Liu Mingzhi did not panic in the slightest, on the left was the north and west walls of the capital, and on the right was the swamp that stretched for dozens of miles.
The terrain was so narrow that the cavalry could not give full play to its advantages at all.
The reason why the cavalry is powerful is all in the impact of the galloping horses, if all of them are cavalry and there is no infantry, Liu Mingzhi may still panic, but covering the large-scale infantry, this kind of terrain has already limited the strength of the cavalry.
The command flag in his hand is raised high, and as soon as the distance is reached, the arrow can be released immediately.
Long-range striking is Liu Mingzhi's favorite way, and those who can use bows and arrows try not to use swords.
The rumbling war drums suddenly sounded on the city wall, and Liu Mingzhi's heart suddenly burst, and he couldn't imagine that the rebels still divided their troops to attack the city.
This is the worst outcome that Liu Mingzhi predicted, and now he is too busy to take care of himself, and he can only pray that the empress's people can hold on a little more.
After a quick glance at the sky, Liu Mingzhi estimated that the cavalry of the Huyan tribe should also arrive, and they would definitely be able to give the rebels a thunderous blow at that time.
It's just that outside the city can only rely on themselves, and the bed crossbow catapult with the horns of the city head seems to be unable to help themselves.
The command flag waved violently and continuously a few times.
As soon as the gate opened, the archers quickly released their arrows and fired at the rebels.
As expected, the effect was very small, and the rebels who were covered by the sword and shield men were only a few hundred killed by the arrows.
The cavalry of the rebels, led by the three commanders, began to speed up and attack towards the Longmen Array.
Liu Mingzhi opened his bow left and right, and instantly came up with countermeasures in his mind, and Ling Qi conveyed orders to the five people of Song and Qing from time to time.
The five of Song Qing waved the flag in their hands without hesitation.
As soon as the gate of the formation changed, the dragon's tail dragon head and dragon belly crossed to cover.
In the blink of an eye, tens of thousands of cavalry of the rebels had rushed to the front.
With a wave of the flag, the 10,000 soldiers of the three formations withdrew from a gap, and the base horses of the large array were revealed.
The vanguard of the rebel cavalry, who had no time to stop the horses, suddenly turned on their backs. The death was horrific.
The following horses rushed into the gate of the large array and began to step on the corpses and rush to kill.
Seeing this, Liu Mingzhi waved the formation flag and instantly conveyed it to Song Qing and a few people, and Song Qing and a few people did not hesitate and began to convey the order to change the formation to the guards below.
As Liu Mingzhi expected, the impact of the cavalry at such a distance was simply minimal, and even the shield soldiers did not break through a single opening.
As soon as the cavalry entered the formation, it was divided into five phalanxes by the sudden transformation of the Longmen Great Array.
The sword and shield soldiers covered the sabers of the cavalry, and the pikemen directly surrounded the cavalry on the war horse through the gap in the shield, and at the same time the dragon head of the halberd soldier swung and began to assassinate the neck of the war horse, and suddenly screamed again and again, terrifying.
There are screams from both the own side and the rebels, and it is not clear who is who.
At the same time, as soon as the formation changed, the sword and shield soldiers covered by the dragon's claws quickly changed formations, and the 10,000 big swordsmen in the dragon's belly surrounded the cavalry who fell off their horses and began to chop down.
Flesh and blood are flying, and there are almost no corpses dead.
"Vomit ....."
Liu Mingzhi vomited the contents of his stomach at the jar that he had prepared earlier, and he didn't care about wiping the filth from the corners of his mouth, and immediately waved the command flag to prepare to change formation to meet the rebels' foot soldiers.
The most important thing in the Dragon Gate Array is the formation platform in the heart of the formation, if there is a problem with your own command, the Dragon Gate Array will fall apart and collapse into an army.
