Chapter 674: The Dragon Fights in the Wild

Seeing the Liukou rushing towards him with overwhelming momentum, Liu Wenxiu's eyes were scorching, and he kept a close eye on the dynamics of the Liukou, and when the whole army of the Liukou was only about 200 steps away from his own formation, he raised the order flag in his hand high.

So, as if by magic, above each of the shields of the iron, beside each of the spearmen who were ready to attack, there appeared a musketeer with a flintlock gun.

They quickly prepared, and the black spearmen in everyone's hands immediately aimed at the rogue who was roaring and rushing at the opposite side.

The order flag in Liu Wenxiu's hand waved down violently. "Ready, fire!"

With the angry shout of the chief of the firecrackers, the three thousand firecrackers fired in unison, and a total of more than 2,500 firecrackers were fired.

"Bang bang bang! ……”

Rows of bright red embers flew together, like a long bright red ribbon, as beautiful as hellfire, with a unique beauty like a death ritual. A large cloud of choking white gunpowder smoke poured up, and more than 2,500 tiny three-coin lead bullets, like a swarm of death bees flying away in unison, let out a slight and cheerful chirp, and swooped down on the rogue on the opposite side.

The flintlock gun used by the Tang Army has a maximum accurate range of 150 paces, compared to the current distance of 200 paces, of course, the accuracy is impossible, but in the case of such a dense charge of the Liukou, as long as it is within the maximum range, even if there is no accurate dense shooting, it can still create a terrible killing effect.

The roaring swarm of death bees, chirping and smirking, quickly burrowed into the body of the rogue on the other side.

The tiny lead bullets weighing three coins burrowed into the human body, breaking bones, tearing muscles, and the surging bullets churned the internal organs into a pulp, forming a terrible cavity effect.

The rogue in the front row, many of them immediately bloomed like a trick, and the people who were hit fell upside down on their backs as if they had been struck by a heavy hammer.

The impact of this buckshot was so great that those rogues who happened to block the lead bullet with their shields could not resist the huge impact, and they staggered backwards and fell. It's just that as soon as they fell, they were immediately trampled to death and injured by the fanatical rogue soldiers behind them who were still rushing straight away, and the scene was a mess.

The first round of shooting, although it was completely impossible to aim, also caused at least more than 600 rogues to be killed and injured on the spot, causing chaos to suddenly appear in the rogue's formation.

When the formation of the rogue was scattered and the speed was slightly sluggish, the second round of fire salvo began again.

"Bang bang bang! ……”

The guns rang out, the embers flew away, and more than 2,500 firebolts were fired, and more than 2,500 lead bullets roared out, causing more than 800 casualties as the rogue soldiers got closer and closer.

The formation of the Qing army suddenly became more and more chaotic, and the speed of the impact became less and less, and the original fanatical and bloodthirsty expressions on the faces of those rogue soldiers who rushed to the front began to recede, and many people showed extremely frightened expressions, because they didn't know when such bad luck would befall them.

Liu Fangliang, who was monitoring behind the battle, saw that his own soldiers were in the dense shooting of the Tang army, and before they could reach the firing range, they began to be confused and shaken, and the speed and strength of the impact were greatly reduced, and he couldn't help but be angry again.

Damn, two rounds of salvo shots disrupted their own formation, these people who are afraid of death, they are really useless, and they really embarrass my Dashun.

"Rush! Give it all to Lao Tzu! If anyone doesn't rush, they will be killed! Liu Fangliang shouted angrily: "The dog entered!" The Tang Army's two volleys disrupted you, what's the use of Lao Tzu raising you such a waste! The more afraid you are, the faster you die, all for Lao Tzu! Rushing to engage the Tang army in hand-to-hand combat is victory! ”

Liu Fangliang scolded sharply, and ordered his guards to step forward to supervise the formation, rectify the formation, and force these rogue soldiers who were driven away from pigs and sheep to continue to rush forward, attack the shield, and fight hand-to-hand with the Tang army.

With no way back, they were shot forward, and these poor fellows, whose courage and will had been weakened at this time, were still forced to rush forward, and the situation was quite miserable. It's just that they have no choice, knowing that their current self, the only way to survive is to rush to the front of the Tang army as soon as possible, and engage the Tang army in hand-to-hand combat, so that they can no longer fight the firecrackers, the only way to save their lives.

As a result, the rogues were still staring at their blood-red eyes, shouting and rushing forward, and the Tang army's firecrackers were also ruthlessly fired one after another, and in this distance of only a hundred paces, the rogue soldiers kept wailing and falling.

With a large number of people, they were not afraid of death, they desperately advanced, and finally arrived about dozens of steps away from the long shield formation, at this time, in the Tang army array, those more than 2,000 Tang army auxiliaries who had been holding still, have used their strength to eat, and threw the burning individual soldiers in their hands towards the rolling Liukou army formation.

Bang bang! ……”

Dozens of steps away, the deafening sound of continuous explosions resounded into one piece, almost bursting people's eardrums, the dazzling golden firelight, in the large cloud of suffocating whistle smoke from time to time, broken limbs and blood in the air burst out in all directions, screams one after another, the scene was like a bloody hell.

The Tang Army's unexpected earth-shattering thunder bombardment can be described as a fatal blow to the Liukou soldiers.

These fragments with a killing radius of more than ten paces were a single soldier earth-shattering thunder, and the killing effect on the rogue soldiers was terrifying.

The 2,000 single-handed earth-shattering thunderbolts were thrown intensively, and a total of more than 1,600 of them exploded smoothly, killing more than 3,000 rogues who were charging intensively, and countless people were injured.

Many people's ears have been shaken to the point of deafness, and they are stunned in place, not knowing what to do next.

For a time, the rogue formation was in chaos, and the morale fell to the bottom.

At this time, the second round of individual thunder throwing by the Tang Army's auxiliaries began again.

"Bang bang bang! ……”

Dozens of paces away, there was another continuous violent explosion, human limbs and blood and internal organs flying in all directions, and as many as 2,000 rogue soldiers who had no time to retreat and disperse, were killed in an instant.

Immediately after that, another third round of throwing began.

And when the earth-shattering thunder was mighty, the three thousand flint guns were fired in unison, and the dense gunfire and the deafening explosions were intertwined with each other, deafening, and did not stop for a moment.

In the face of such a powerful firearm attack of the Tang army, in the face of this violent massacre that was almost absolute death, most of the rogues who rushed into battle with their flesh and blood, only ten steps away from Haogou, almost a stone's throw away from the Tang army, finally many rogues completely collapsed.

A large number of rogues threw their weapons one after another, howling and turning around and fleeing, like a group of pigs who don't care about their stomachs, no longer talking about any organization and discipline, everyone is desperately retreating and running, lest they fall behind, they will become the ghosts of the Tang Army.

There were only about 2,000 rogues, who were extremely lucky to rush to the Tang Army's big shield almost subconsciously, but before they could wave the weapons in their hands, a large number of Tang Army spearmen with complete armor and sharp steel spears could not hold it back, and they used all their strength to use the 4-meter stainless steel spears that had been accumulating for a long time, and stabbed at these chaotic and low formations.

A 4-meter-long stainless steel spear with a sharp and terrifying three-edged blood groove head stabbed towards the fleeing rogues as if it had eyes.

Being stabbed by the three-edged stainless steel spear head engraved with a deep blood groove is like being kissed by a poisonous snake, which can be said to be dead when touched, and dead when touched. Under the ferocious stabbing of the Tang army's spearmen, the rogues screamed again and again, and continued to struggle and fall to their deaths.

"Don't run away! If there are escapees, kill them! Seeing that Fang was already close to the Tang Army, but the formation was in such chaos, Liu Fangliang was furious, he gritted his teeth and ordered: "Go, slaughter all those who escaped from the battle!" ”

A large number of cavalry guards roared away, slashing and slaughtering the routs who had managed to escape to the rear, killing the poor fellows with great sorrow and screaming.

Under Liu Fangliang's strong suppression, the Liukou soldiers began to restore order, and they rushed over quickly without fear of death like crazy beasts, and began to make a strong impact on the Tang army's gun and shield battle array.

Because the enemy had already arrived in front of the battle, in order to avoid killing and injuring their own people, the Tang army auxiliaries had to retreat together with the firecrackers, but at this time in the battle, they had already killed and injured more than 10,000 rogues together with the firecrackers, and the efficiency was amazing.

More brutal and bloody hand-to-hand combat has officially begun.

Above the shield wall, which was as solid as a city wall, spears flew up and down, like a roaring poisonous dragon, constantly piercing the head, neck and chest of the rogue, and the sharp three-edged steel spear head, like the claws of death, kept snatching the lives of one rogue after another.

At this point, in order to save their lives and for their exploits, everyone rushed forward more and more frantically, and the spikes of each big shield were like barbecue frogs, and they were full of corpses of rogues. Fearless of death, they rushed forward with the tips and spikes of their spears and spikes, and frantically slashed and slashed the spearmen and shield soldiers of the Tang Army behind them.

Due to the fact that there were too many rogue troops, in the face of this dense and powerful impact, the shield wall of the Tang army finally began to loosen, and larger and larger gaps appeared, and the shield and spearmen of the Tang army also continued to fall, but as soon as someone died or fell, new soldiers immediately filled their positions, ensuring the integrity of the entire battle array.

In such a pure cold-weapon fight, the army's courage, courage, organization, discipline and other key factors are extremely tested, and in these things, the Tang army is far stronger than the rogue.

What's more, the Tang army had a big shield as a solid protection, and it was quite difficult for the rogues to cross the big shield to attack the shield soldiers and spearmen behind. Because of this important factor, the battle damage and death of the rogues were exacerbated.

After a bloody battle, the battle loss exchange ratio between the Tang army and the Liukou was basically maintained at about 1 to 4. For the Tang army, after resisting the initial onslaught, they have begun to gain the upper hand from the stalemate.

However, the Liukou soon relied on the superiority of their troops, and the entire battle array continued to extend to both sides, and they tried to encircle the Tang army's gun and shield battle formation from both sides to achieve the effect of a joint attack on three sides.

Liukou's intentions were quickly seen through by Liu Wenxiu, deputy mayor of the fourth town of the Tang Army.

He flipped the command flag in his hand, and quickly issued a military order, so that the rampant general members who had been staying on both flanks, and let these most elite heavy infantry in the Tang army go out to attack and protect the two wings.

After the military order was issued, those rampant team members who were covered with heavy armor from head to toe and armed to the teeth were like tigers coming out of the mountains and dragons going down to the sea, roaring loudly, waving heavy weapons such as tiger knives, tiger spears, long-handled pick knives, and Houbei army sickles, jumping into the wings of the rogue and slashing and killing.

These most elite hoplites in the Tang Army, they were like miniature tanks, in the unprepared rogue array, rampage, as if entering a no-man's land. They slashed mercilessly, slashing and screaming everywhere they went.

The momentum of the Liukou was instantly stifled, on the contrary, under the fierce attack of the Tang Army's rampant members, the Liukou in front of him kept screaming and falling, and the entire formation began to retreat continuously.

Seeing his own soldiers, the strength was still twice that of the Tang army, but in such a cold weapon battle, he could not even gain the upper hand, but began to gradually decline and chaos, Liu Fangliang, who was watching the battle behind, was suddenly angry and anxious.

He didn't have time to think more, and immediately shouted: "All the cavalry will go out, attack the two wings of the Tang Army respectively, and crush all these damn Tang Army heavy infantry to me!" ”

"Order!"

Under Liu Fangliang's order, thousands of rogue cavalry, who were used as reserve forces, immediately roared out from the formation. They quickly divided into two divisions and marched towards the flanks on both sides, preparing to rely on the strong impact of the cavalry to crush and kill all the rampant Tang troops who were fighting with all their might.

As soon as the Liukou cavalry moved, Liu Wenxiu, the deputy mayor of the Tang Army over there, saw it clearly, and immediately made a move of the command flag in his hand, and the Tang cavalry, who were also on standby on both sides, immediately roared and rushed up.

The horses' hooves rumbled, the spears pointed horizontally, and the elite cavalry on both sides quickly strangled together.

The fighting was ruthless, and the swords and spears were waved at each other, and one horse after another fell down with a scream, and one cavalry after another fell off their horses screaming.

Compared with the heavily equipped Liukou cavalry, the Tang Army's heavy armored cavalry Xuanhu Heavy Cavalry rushed to the forefront, and these elite Tang Army cavalry with heavy armor did not succeed in group charging because the distance was too short, but in such a hand-to-hand battle, its combat ability and defensive ability were much stronger than Liukou. Therefore, in such a cruel and direct battle, although the number of cavalry of the Tang Army was small, it also began to gain the upper hand.

At this moment, in the Tang army's main formation, the formation changed rapidly, and more than 1,000 spearmen who were originally behind the gun and shield battle array, waiting as a reserve, quickly divided into two teams, and they rushed out of the formation, ready to go behind the Liukou cavalry, to completely encircle and destroy them.

The thousands of cavalry of the rogue quickly fell into an extremely dangerous situation of being surrounded by the front and rear. It's just that the cavalry of the Tang Army was wedged extremely deep and fought fiercely, and the rogue couldn't break away from the whole team at all.

At this time, as the command flag in the Tang army was waved high again, and a strange swan horn sounded, Liu Fangliang was surprised to see that from the distant horizon, as if magic, there was a cavalry team of about 3,000 people, running around and around at a rapid pace, they were like a rush that rose from the ground, and they were rushing in their own direction, shouting and killing.
