Chapter 1090: Fear

The gun array prepared to resist the cavalry of the Daning grassland was directly destroyed by the firearms of the Ning Fengzi battalion, this is not a level of war at all, in terms of weapons and equipment, the Feng Zi battalion of the Ning army is ahead of this era, and it is ahead of all the enemies, if the equipment of the Fengzi battalion is expanded to the whole army of Daning soldiers, then Daning will be able to sweep the world.

Fortunately, the scale of Daning's Fengzi battalion is not large, and the amount of gunpowder carried is not large, the most important thing is that the self-destruction rate of the crossbow array vehicles is outrageously high, and a quarter of a hundred crossbow array vehicles may be reimbursed on the battlefield last time, it sounds terrible that the damage rate is high, but in fact, the self-damage of a quarter is already low.

And that's not even counting the damage to the inside of the crossbow after a long journey of bumps, which is expensive, has a high damage rate, and takes a long time to reload after a salvo, and if you take all the losses into account, a hundred ballista cars have at least a third of the damage rate after a single use.

Daning walked ahead of the use of firearms, but this road of groping forward was not easy.

If it weren't for Daning but for another small country, even if it started to develop gunpowder weapons, I was afraid that it wouldn't be able to bear the huge cost of money, just the cost of building and developing the crossbow array car, Daning's household and military departments have begun to grit their teeth, of course, it's not that they really can't afford this money, but every time the martial arts workshop reaches out to ask for money, they will have a pain, and the frequency of asking for money is more.

Chang'an Martial Arts Workshop, Hanhai City Martial Arts Workshop in Northern Xinjiang, these two places invest in crossbow array vehicles and other firearms every year, and no one may believe it.

In the words of the Daning soldiers themselves, the crossbow array car swept the enemy, swept for a while, and swept all the time, but this damage is really distressing, and it is also dangerous, the gunpowder of the crossbow array car hurts people from time to time, and in terms of the current technology of the Daning Martial Arts Workshop, when it will hurt people, when it will not hurt people, it all depends on luck.

After hundreds of crossbow array vehicles fired a salvo, Tang Baobao's war knife was raised: "Attack!" ”

Boom!

Knock knock!

The sound of war drums shattered the sky.

Although they were tired from afar, but with the help of strong winds, the crossbow array destroyed the spear array of the Sabbatarians, and the range exceeded that of the archers of the Sabbatarians, and the Sabbatarians seemed to be unable to even lift their heads under such suppression, so they could only keep retreating and retreating to the camp to rely on the solid wooden wall to resist the impact of the Daning soldiers, which was an unstoppable fighter.

A resting soldier ran towards the camp as fast as he could, and his companions fell down one after another, he was one of the soldiers in the spear array of the resting army, and the moment the Ning army rushed over, the gun array was already broken, he could only run back, running back like crazy.

The rear of the rest army had already entered the camp, but none of them cared about the people who were at the front, and those Ning soldiers were still shooting the crossbows in their hands when they pursued forward, and he didn't dare to look at the appearance of his companions being knocked down by arrows, and it was also luck who could run back safely at this time.

"Mark!"

It was then that he heard the shouts of the Ning people, a voice he had heard before, and knew what it portended.

With a whew, a black shadow fell from the sky.

As the soldier ran, he watched as an iron javelin flew over his head and landed on the back of his comrade in front of him, the iron javelin was in the middle of his spine, and the sound of the javelin tearing through the leather armor and tearing the muscles seemed to penetrate into his ears at that moment, and became extremely clear, even more than the terrible wail of the person who was shot.

rob

Stabbed in the back and out of the chest, the man who fell to the ground convulsed, as if trying his best to save his life.

He watched his comrades fall to the ground but didn't dare to save them, the iron javelin flew over his head to prove that the Ning people behind him were not far away, he didn't dare to turn back or stop, only by gritting his teeth and running forward could he have any hope of life.

With a muffled pop, a crossbow bolt pierced his shoulder, and he stumbled but gritted his teeth and continued to run forward, but at this moment he suddenly fell into a trance, and his mind involuntarily thought of the way they had pursued the enemy in the past, and the enemy who was running for his life in front of him was what he was like at this moment.

Finally, he was about to run outside the camp gate, but at this moment, his eyes suddenly widened.

The huge wooden door shut.

He saw the horror on the faces of those people, and also saw the indifference on the faces of those people, and then he heard the military orders of their resting people, followed by the overwhelming feather arrows flying from the wooden wall, he stopped suddenly, facing the direction of their camp, and saw the dense feather arrows falling, he looked up at those arrows, and his pupils gradually contracted.

The corpse fell slowly, full of feather arrows, and it was not only the Daning soldiers who were chasing very close that fell with him, but also at least a thousand rest soldiers who had no time to retreat back into the camp, they did not die under the horizontal knives of the Ning soldiers, but died under the feathered arrows of their own people.

The moment he fell, he tried to turn over, he didn't want to die in front of the dark earth, he wanted to lie on the ground and look at the bright and distant sky, and the white clouds in the sky looked like his hometown.

The dense feather arrows forced back the hot pursuit of the Daning soldiers, and the soldiers began to retreat, and the resting man on the wooden wall could finally let out a long breath, but this breath could not be exhaled at all, because the war had not ended and had just begun.

"Our stone-throwing truck!"

The Sabbath shouted hoarsely.

On the original position outside, where did their catapults have time to disassemble and retract, and when the army retreated, all the catapults were left in the clearing, and at this moment, they became the weapons of the Ning people.

Tang Baobao glanced at the camp of the resting people opposite, and couldn't help laughing, and raised his hand again to feel the size of the wind.

"Some people say that burning the enemy with fire will cost you your life, because fire attack is too vicious, and I am not afraid."

He stretched out his hand and pointed to the camp of the resting people: "If there is really any retribution, put it on me, and burn their camp for me, but I feel that such a thing as retribution, who dares to put it above the murderous aura of the Daning soldiers." ”

With his military order, the Ning army began to keep firing arrows towards the camp of the resting people, with the help of the wind, the feather arrows of the Daning soldiers flew farther than normal, and the outer walls of the camp were made of wood, although it was not so easy to ignite, but it could not stop the rockets too many and too dense, and the wind could not be stopped.

An hour later, the stone-throwing carts that the Sabbatarians had left outside the camp were turned around by the Daning soldiers, and gunpowder packs the size of millstones flew into the camp one after another.

Half an hour later, the tents in the camp of the Sabbath were burned into flames.

After another half an hour, there was nothing intact in the camp, and the fire became the master, and under the impetus of the wind, the fire spread from northeast to southwest, and the tents in the camp burned one after another, and the defenders on the wooden walls were relatively safe, because of the tents

It was easier to ignite than a wooden wall, but when they had to retreat, they found that there was no road behind them, only a sea of fire.

Tang Baobao urged the horse to go up the high slope, raised his clairvoyance and looked into the camp of the rest people on the opposite side, the fire was raging, and he could see that the rest people were swallowed up by the sea of fire one by one, and the rest of the right guards of nearly 100,000 people lost at least about one-third of the troops after this battle, and their first line of defense outside the royal court city will also be completely lost, and the rest of the rest of the rest of the rest of the rest of the people are running for their lives like crazy, they can't do anything but flee for their lives.

The fire burned until the next morning, when the sun rose, you could still see the puffs of green smoke rising from the camp, the Daning soldiers in black uniforms stepped on the ashes and entered the camp, they saw not only ashes, but also countless charred corpses, a group of resting people in a corner hugged each other and died, some people were charred, some people looked still intact.

The corpses scattered all over the ground did not dare to touch them, and if they touched them, they might be shattered.

The boots were trampled on the ashes, the soldiers searched and cleaned the camp, not even a single person was seen, and the rough estimate was that the losses of the Right Guard were at least 30,000 people, and this battle was not only the loss of the strongest defense line outside the royal court for the rest of the people, but also the courage and self-confidence that they had never lost.

The Royal Court.

Marquin knelt before Galoclius, and he did not plead, nor prayed, but only knelt there.

"Your Majesty, punish me."

Galocleo saw the battle from a distance on the city wall, although he couldn't see what weapons the Ning army used from too far away, but he saw the sky full of meteors flying into the array of the Ning army from the Ning army, and the gun array set up to resist the Ning army's cavalry became the enemy's target, the Ning people seemed to have endless means and tactics, and where did these powerful things come from? Was it given by the gods?

"The tactics are my making."

Galocle walked slowly around the main hall: "I didn't expect that they would give up the advantage of nearly 100,000 cavalry, but choose to attack with infantry, and I didn't expect that the power of firearms was actually like a god was angry. ”

He knew that this battle could not be won no matter what.

"Horse leather."

"The minister is here."

"I need someone to defend Wangting City now, I want to go back with more soldiers, I only came to my senses after this battle, I thought I had penetrated this world, it turned out that what I saw was only in my eyes, my vision was too low, my vision was too short, after I went back, I had to learn from the Ning people to build more powerful firearms, but before that, I needed to ......"

"Minister, stay."

Ma Ge raised his head and looked at Galokliu: "The ministers will defend the royal court city to the death, and they will let the footsteps of the Ning people stop outside the city." ”

"I can trust you, I just feel that I have treated you badly."

Galoclius stretched out his hand to help Ma Ge up: "When I return, I will let your son inherit your place, and reward him generously, I will give you the supreme glory of your family, and I will always remember your dedication to the Rest Empire." ”

He took off his saber and handed it to Ma Ge: "As long as you can hold on for half a month, I can lead the army across the Zangbo River in half a month, and then you can return to the coast after walking for another two months, our warships are still waiting there, if you hold on for half a month and the Ning people still can't break through here, you will withdraw with people." ”

He looked at Ma Ge: "Go secretly, don't tell the soldiers who remain, they will die with glory, but I will always remember their merits." ”
