122. Rocket-induced killings
Cavalry, the trump card of the cold weapon era, the strength of the cavalry can determine the strength of a country's military strength, the reason why the grassland peoples can repeatedly invade the Central Plains, and the Central Plains can only passively defend, the fundamental reason is the lack of enough horses and cavalry.
In the vast history, there are very few examples of infantry defeating cavalry, and those who command these battles are all the most dazzling generals of that era, just like Han Xin of the Han Dynasty, Li Jing of the Tang Dynasty, Yue Fei of the Song Dynasty, etc., of course, there are methods after entering the modern era......
The cavalry of Zhengyi Village chased all the way, seeing that Du Yan in front of him and the remaining remnants of Fangshan were passing under Xiaolin Mountain at a rapid pace, Ha Lansheng had already chased here, how could he give up, you must know that today's Western Xia people regard face as no less light than the Han people.
"Chase, keep chasing me, don't catch Du Yan, never quit!" Haransheng held the bronze man high and rushed to the front.
He wanted to continue chasing, but someone wanted to pour cold water on him, Mian Yixin didn't care about killing anyone along the way, just chased Harlan with his head covered and was tired enough, where did he still have the strength to kill.
Fortunately, he whipped his horse all the way, and it was not in vain that he frothing at the mouth of his mount, and finally caught up with Haransheng, reached out and grabbed Harlansheng's reins, and said while panting, "Boss Ha, I can't chase anymore, I'm chasing down, I'm afraid that I will really fall into the trap if I don't do it!" ”
"Trap?" Harlan Sheng looked up to the sky and snorted, and the horsewhip in his left hand was hard towards Mian Yixin is whip, and a deep blood mark appeared on his face and the back of his hand, and the one-horned bronze man pointed at him, and scolded angrily: "The fourth crown, Hugh has to shake the heart of Lao Tzu's army, if you dare to say more, believe it or not, Lao Tzu will kill you under the horse!" Open your dog's eyes and see, the terrain here is open and unobstructed, even if he has an ambush on the mountain, can the TMD bow and arrow shoot here? Do you think those minions are all divine powers? Don't say more, chase Lao Tzu! After that, the bronze man raised his head and shouted: "The whole army moves forward, and whoever takes off Du Yan's head will be rewarded with a thousand taels of silver!"
There must be a brave man under the heavy reward, after the Zhuang Ding of the three villages heard it, they all fought bravely, for fear that the reward would fall into the pockets of others, and the persuasion of the crown letter was ineffective, and he was also a greedy man, and the greed of the heavy reward completely crushed his last trace of clarity, and then charged madly.
Although this road is wide enough to walk side by side with more than ten war horses without being too crowded, it does not include the current bustling, swarm of war horses all crowded together, people barking, horses neighing, and there are no strange sounds of "neighing" from the mountains at all.
There must be an ambush, and Harlan Sheng's idea is also correct, but he didn't expect that his opponent was not Du Yan, but a young man from later generations, a weapon in his hand, spanning hundreds of years of time and space, appeared in this world for the first time.
Congreve rocket, a kind of created by China, carried forward under the research of the British Congreve, so that the British army in the Napoleonic Wars to break the French army, the Crimean War to break the Russian Cossack cavalry, but also in the Opium War swept the last elite force of the Qing Dynasty at that time - the Mongolian iron cavalry of Seng Lingqin, is a heavy machine gun and new artillery before the birth of the ancient and modern weapons against the cavalry.
Among the cavalry crowded together, there were also sharp-eyed people, and suddenly saw a few long poles that were still emitting green smoke falling in mid-air, and couldn't help exclaiming: "Look, what is that?" Unconsciously attracted attention, and the cavalry around him seemed to forget to gallop for a moment, and watched the long pole fall intently.
"Boom", a long pole fell first in a group of cavalry, and before those cavalry stepped forward to watch, the whole long pole exploded, the flying debris, the sparks produced by the explosion, not only brought casualties to Zhuang Ding on horseback, but even the war horse was injured a lot, plus the sparks splashed on the ground, which made the dead grass burn, and even frightened the war horse, and the neighing and chaos of a war horse drove the war horse in this area to follow the chaos.
"Boom boom boom", the chaos in one place is not over, the sound of the explosion sounded again, I have to say, although the Xixia people are fierce and good at fighting, but the same ignorance, some people want to drive the horse away from the chaos area caused by the explosion, but some people think that this is God's punishment, actually want to get off the horse and kowtow, begging for God's forgiveness, all this, all of them, making the scene more chaotic and more unbearable.
Li Junchen stood on the mountain and watched the scene under the mountain, his heart was also full of helplessness, with his knowledge, he could naturally see that the lethality of the rocket was really limited, and the current casualties were more caused by Zhuang Ding's ignorance and trampling after the war horse got out of control, but today's rockets only have this bit of lethality, this is still after Wu Jiao joined Liangshan, gathered the strength of him and Gongsun Sheng, and with the help of the four Yan Guang brothers and Tao Zongwang, Ma Lin, Ou Peng and others, it was not easy to complete thirty branches, in order to achieve the power and range of later generations, How can it be done overnight!
He thought so, because he knew that the power of the rocket should not be only like this, but Tang Bin and Hao Siwen didn't know, and they originally had a lot of complaints about Junchen leaving them on the mountain, but when they saw the people in front of them turning their backs, both of them couldn't help but open their mouths wide, and their eyes looking at Junchen were gradually full of admiration and worship, no wonder they would be like this, when the northern grasslands were strong, it was always the people of the Central Plains who suffered. How can this era of cavalry be everything, how many aliens can be killed by just one person, and this painful depression is dead in their hearts.
"Bang", Tang Bin suddenly slapped himself twice, then knelt down in front of Junchen, and said in a deep voice: "Brother, little brother Tang Bin shouldn't be, just shouldn't doubt his brother, now the little brother has witnessed this scene in front of him, the little brother now believes that his brother's words are not just grandiose words, but really have a day of realization, the little brother is willing to be under the command of his brother, drink horses in northern Xinjiang, and recover the Han land!"
Hao Siwen's personality is calm and introverted, not as exposed as Tang Bin, but looking at him nodding solemnly towards Junchen, you can know that he will follow Junchen for the rest of his life, unless it comes to the moment when his heart stops beating.
The explosion at the bottom of the mountain continued, and the scope of the chaos was further expanding, so big that it had already affected Ha Lansheng and Ha Yunsheng, and even Ha Yunsheng's face was cut open by the flying debris.
Ha Yunsheng was originally a reckless man, but now he was inexplicably blocked from the way, and his face was cut, he was really angry, where can he take care of any of his fellow clans, and roared directly, "Get out of the way for me," picked up the Xuanhua axe in his hand, and no matter who was in front of him, no one directly cut it brainlessly, and cut a bloody path from the chaotic and crowded crowd.
Someone took the lead, Sha Zhiren, Mian Yixin and those Zhuang Ding who were not injured danced their hands one after another to fight their way out.
When Haransheng looked back and looked again, he saw people and horses stepping on them, countless people and countless war horses were trampled to the ground, and countless people were trampled into flesh and mud, and he couldn't help but crack, blood and tears flowed down the corners of his eyes, how to say that these people were also his compatriots, they were Western Xia people, and they died like this, how could they not make his heart ache.
The red eyes stared at Ha Yunsheng viciously, it was he who took the lead in killing his compatriots, and rushed out by stepping on the corpses of his compatriots, "Ha Yunsheng, these are all our compatriots, is this what you TMD did?" Harlan screamed, and the whip in his hand followed.
Ha Yunsheng didn't dodge or dodge, he was whipped, and the whip marks and cuts made him even more hideous and terrifying, "Yes, it was Lao Tzu TMD who took the lead in killing, but if Lao Tzu didn't take the lead in killing, I'm afraid that all of us would die there!" Ha Yunsheng pointed to the chaotic scene, and also replied viciously, and suddenly choked Ha Lansheng speechless.
Enduring the heart-rending pain, Harlan Sheng looked up to the sky and roared, "Du Yan, Lao Tzu and you don't share the sky, today there is you without me!" ”
"Boss, this Du Yan has run away, where can we find him?" Sha Zhiren glanced forward and found that Du Yan and the others had disappeared, and immediately shouted.
"Run? Hum! Harlan laughed twice, "I see where he goes, except for Fangshan, I see where he can go!" ”
