"Attention, archers!"
Qin Zhen was holding a shield at this time, holding it in the front, and the whole thing was shrunk behind the shield, and two Tartar soldiers had fallen in front of him, shouting loudly.
As soon as his words fell, he saw a rain of arrows fall from the sky, shooting into the dense crowd behind the White Dragon Army, injuring several people.
Fortunately, these elite soldiers of the White Dragon Army are all well-equipped with armor, the innermost is cotton armor, and the outside is covered with iron armor, which is very strong for bows and arrows.
And if you peel off the armor of some White Dragon Army generals, you will find that they are cotton armor on the inside, iron armor on the outside, and even a layer of leather armor in the middle.
Such a three-layer armor is similar to the armor of the most elite horse armor soldiers in the Tartar soldier's stroke, or the armor equipped by the very rare white armor soldiers.
It can be said that the soldiers of the White Dragon Army are not weak to the Tartars in terms of armor.
Of course, this is only limited to the white dragon soldiers, if they are replaced by those city defense soldiers, their armor will not be so fine.
The city defense sergeants of the White Dragon Army generally only wear a layer of cotton armor, and the grassroots officers will add a layer of leather armor, and the senior generals will replace it with iron armor.
This is also very similar to the Tartars, except for their Tartar Eight Banners, the rest of the soldiers of the Eight Banners of Mongolia and Han are far inferior to the Tartars.
Because these soldiers of Tumen Feidong Camp were originally cavalry, they all carried bows and arrows with them.
At this time, the soldiers of the two sides in front fought together, and the Tartar soldiers in the back drew their bows and arrows one after another, forming a 45-degree oblique angle, and released arrows at the sky.
The arrow arced in mid-air, and then fell into the white dragon sergeant in front of it.
Hundreds of arrows fell, causing a lot of casualties to the dense white dragon soldiers.
However, fortunately, these soldiers are the elite of the White Dragon Army, and the three-layer armor on their bodies can basically guarantee that they can resist the arrows of these tartars.
In particular, the key parts of their bodies are protected by fine plate armor, and it is difficult for the arrows of the Tartars to shoot through.
Therefore, this wave of arrow rain basically did not cause too many casualties to the White Dragon soldiers, no one died, only five or six unlucky ghosts were injured.
It's a pity that the throwing guns in the White Dragon Army have been canceled by Li Zixiao's order, otherwise in this case, throwing a burst of throwing guns can definitely kill an enemy.
"Kill!"
However, the Tartars didn't stay proud for long, and soon there was a shout of killing behind them, and it was Zhao Zilong who personally led more than a hundred Japanese soldiers to rush over.
Zhao Zilong and Qin Zhen sandwiched more than 200 Tartar soldiers from Tumen Feidongying on this narrow street and attacked them on both sides.
In this way, the battle continued, and the Tumen Feidong camp had only a dead end.
"I can't die." Tumen Fei Dongying's eyes flashed with a hint of unwillingness, and he took two Tartar guards and escaped over the wall.
"Qin Zhen, don't let go of that Tartar general."
Zhao Zilong shouted at Qin Zhen from a long distance, Tumen Fei Dongying was wearing the finest armor, and he knew at a glance that he was a Tartar official.
"Don't worry, General, he can't run."
Qin Zhen responded, and then took two white dragon soldiers and soldiers, and also climbed over the wall to pursue the escaped Tumen Fei Dongying.
Whoosh!
During the pursuit, Qin Zhen shot two Tartar guards who were following Tumen Feidong's camp with arrows, forcing him to the largest courtyard, which was Feng You's home.
Feng You, as the patriarch of Fengjiabao, his home is the largest, and Tumen Fei Dongying fled here at this time.
"Be careful, go in."
Qin Zhen, who was in hot pursuit, said to the two white dragon sergeants, kicked open the courtyard door, and chased in.
"What's the situation?" As a result, after Qin Zhen rushed in with two white dragon soldiers, he was also dumbfounded.
Because, at this time, they saw that in the courtyard, in addition to the corpses on the ground, there was also a weak woman with a small crossbow in her hand, facing Tumen Fei Dongying on the side.
On the other side, Tumen Fei Dongying covered his chest with one hand and landed on the ground with a knife, and blood continued to flow out from the arrow wound in his chest.
Feng Lan's hands trembled at this time, and then she dropped the small crossbow in her hand, which was an iron crossbow used for self-defense, and it cost a lot of money.
Obviously, Tumen Fei Dongying belonged to the Yin and ditch and capsized the boat, and was shot by a woman with a small crossbow, and it is estimated that he never thought that he would be folded in the hands of a woman.
"I'm not reconciled." Tumen Fei Dongying shouted unwillingly, and his body struggled to rush over.
It's a pity that as soon as he moved, the blood from the wound on his chest gushed out like a spring, making him weak and fall down directly.
"I'm not reconciled, my dignified Qing warrior actually died at the hands of a woman." Before he died, Tumen Fei Dongying whispered to himself.
Qin Zhen rushed over and checked Tumen Fei Dongying, and found that he was dead.
Immediately, Qin Zhen looked at Feng Lan, only to see Feng Lan at this time, her eyes were dull, she was sitting in the courtyard, crying silently.
She looked at the corpses in the courtyard around her, they were all members of their Feng family, and the Tartars slaughtered them all, and did not let them go because of Feng You.
Feng Lan reached out and grabbed a long knife on the ground, and wiped it on her neck, ready to end her life.
While!
Qin Zhen rushed over in time and used the long knife in his hand to knock out the long knife in Feng Lan's hand.
"Why save me." Feng Lan raised her head, looked at Qin Zhen, and asked crying,
"It's all over, so why kill yourself." Qin Zhen frowned and said.
"My family is all dead, and I am no longer innocent, what is the meaning of living, it is better to die." Feng Lan said desperately.
Qin Zhen looked at Feng Lan, who was sad and desperate at this time, and sighed in his heart, this is a poor person.
"People cannot be resurrected from death, so mourn them. Come with us, go to Zhenjiang, where our general will arrange a boat, and go to a big island where you can live again. ”
Qin Zhen comforted Feng Lan and said.
The shouting and killing in Fengjia Fort continued until the second half of the night, when it gradually subsided.
In this battle, there were only three or four hundred Tartars who finally escaped from Fengjiabao, and all the rest were left in Fengjiabao by Zhao Zilong.
And the White Dragon Army also paid a lot of price, and under the advantage of this sneak attack, they also lost more than 800 people.
For the result of this battle, Zhao Zilong is still very satisfied.
At this time, Zhao Zilong didn't know that the credit he made for this sneak attack was not just to eliminate more than 1,700 Tartars.
What's more, Zhao Zilong almost wiped out the Tartar cavalry of Tumen Feidongying in one fell swoop, completely eliminating Li Zixiao's henchmen.
In the same way, this battle destroyed the entire Fengjia Fort, and the people in the village suffered heavy casualties.
Before the battle began, there were more than 300 households and more than 1,000 people in the village, but after this battle, there were not even 400 people in the village, most of them were children and the elderly.
Almost all the young men in the village were slaughtered because of their resistance to the Tartars, and many of the women who were spoiled by the Tartars did not end well.
In addition, in the end, the battle between the White Dragon Army and the Tartars in the village caused many innocent people to suffer the revenge and killing of the Tartars.
After the battle in the second half of the night, Zhao Zilong used the light of the torches to look at the streets and courtyards of the entire village, the corpses scattered everywhere, the blood stained the earth, and he felt a little guilty.
After all, if he hadn't ordered it before, he delayed for a while before he rushed to Fengjiabao to attack Tartar, maybe the people in Fengjiabao would have suffered fewer casualties.
But guilt is guilt, if they had to do it all over again, Zhao Zilong would make the same choice, because doing so would be in the best interests of their White Dragon Army.
Zhao Zilong immediately ordered the soldiers of the White Dragon Army to help the people in the village clean up the bodies of their relatives while collecting the fallen soldiers.
Thundered!
"What's the situation?" At this time, Zhao Zilong suddenly heard a situation outside the village, and it seemed that a large number of cavalry were approaching.
Zhao Zilong and other generals of the White Dragon Army quickly became nervous, they were worried that another Tartar cavalry would come, and it would be miserable for them.
"Report, General Qiyu, there is a cavalry of ours outside the fort."
Zhao Zilong was obviously relieved after hearing the words of a scout who ran back and reported the situation.
"Our cavalry, is it also after this Tartar cavalry? Is it Luo Chao's Flying Eagle Battalion? Zhao Zilong asked.
"General Qiyu, it is General Luo's Flying Eagle Battalion cavalry, they have arrived outside the fort."
"Let's go, and the generals will go out with me."
Zhao Zilong immediately took Qin Zhen, Yoshino and Fujino and other generals out of Fengjiabao, and saw a large group of cavalry men and horses gathered at the entrance of Fengjiabao village from a distance with the help of firelight.
"Zilong, is it really you?" When Luo Chao saw that the person who came was really Zhao Zilong, he was also very surprised and said.
"Haha, General Luo, you are a step late, otherwise you can catch up with a 'big meal', but unfortunately you didn't arrive, so we can only enjoy it ourselves."
Zhao Zilong walked over with a smile and joked at Luo Chao.
"That Tartar cavalry, you sneak attacked?"
After Luo Chao heard Zhao Zilong's words, he glanced at the blazing Fengjiabao behind him, and knew that his guess was most correct, but he couldn't help but ask.
"Well, it just so happened that we collided, so we took advantage of the night to carry out a sneak attack and annihilated more than 2,000 Tartars in Fengjia Fort.
Fortunately, we succeeded in the sneak attack and took the initiative, and with the lives of the soldiers, after paying more than 800 casualties, we left more than 1,700 Tartars, but still let them escape 3 or 400 people. ”
Hearing Luo Chao's inquiry, Zhao Zilong briefly described the matter.
"Haha, we chased this Tartar cavalry for six or seven days, but I didn't expect it to be folded in your hands in the end, Zilong, you are really lucky.
Congratulations, you have made a great contribution this time, and when you go back, the general will definitely reward you a lot. ”
Although Luo Chao was unwilling, he also congratulated Zhao Zilong very much, after all, this Tartar cavalry was also wiped out by their White Dragon Army.
"I'll just say, how could there suddenly be such a powerful Tartar cavalry here, and these Tartar cavalry were driven here by your Flying Eagle Battalion!"
When Zhao Zilong heard what Luo Chao said, his heart suddenly brightened.
Then, Zhao Zilong continued: "This time we were able to intercept this Tartar cavalry here and annihilate it by sneak attack, and your Flying Eagle Battalion also contributed a lot.
Otherwise, if you pursue this Tartar cavalry all the way, we will not be able to reap the rewards of this battle, and the credit for this battle belongs to both of us. ”
Zhao Zilong said very angrily, he was indeed right, if it weren't for Luo Chao's pursuit all the way, Zhao Zilong and they would not have encountered the cavalry of Tumen Feidong's camp.
Facing Zhao Zilong's words, Luo Chao smiled and nodded, he would not shirk such a credit, because his subordinate generals also need military merits.
It can be said that Zhao Zilong's contribution to the annihilation of Tumen Feidongying was not lost at all to the previous battle when he led the Japanese soldiers to face Ilgen Jueluo Doro at the Nameless Slope.
The two great achievements were all caught by Zhao Zilong, to be honest, at this time, Luo Chao was a little envious of Zhao Zilong in his heart.
Zhao Zilong himself also understood this in his heart, since the White Dragon Army landed in Zhenjiang Fort, it had not fought two difficult battles in total.
All of them made him make a great contribution, which will inevitably make some generals of the White Dragon Army feel uncomfortable, this time he must share part of the credit to Luo Chao's Flying Eagle Battalion.
Zhao Zilong is no longer the hairy boy he used to be, and he also knows that eating alone will be hated.
Besides, this time Zhao Zilong really made a mistake and made Luo Chao's advantage.
This time when he goes back, Zhao Zilong is almost about to be promoted by Li Zixiao again, and it is estimated that it will not be long before Zhao Zilong can be on an equal footing with Luo Chao and others.
At this time, although Luo Chao and Zhao Zilong are not particularly familiar, they still will not be offended.
"By the way, General Luo, when we attacked the Tartars before, we scared away more than 2,000 war horses that the Tartars were enclosed in the fort.
Now these war horses are all frightened, and they ran out of Fengjia Fort, I don't know where to run up, and I haven't had time to send someone out to collect them.
My subordinates are cleaning up the battlefield in Fengjia Fort, so it is better to bother General Luo to lead people to find these war horses.
Otherwise, I am afraid that when the dawn comes, more war horses will go away, and they will not be able to chase back. ”
At this time, Zhao Zilong's words made Luo Chao's eyes light up.
Luo Chao knew that this was Zhao Zilong's gift to him, more than 2,000 war horses, but it was Zhao Zilong's biggest capture in this battle.
At this time, Zhao Zilong took the initiative to let Luo Chao's people collect it, and Zhao Zilong's meaning was already very clear.
For Luo Chao, more than 2,000 war horses are too precious.
Don't listen to what Zhao Zilong said, his people want to plan the battlefield in the fort, it's just an excuse, without Luo Chao coming, I believe that Zhao Zilong can also send people out to find those war horses.
"General Zhao, thank you." Luo Chao smiled and said to Zhao Zilong.
For Zhao Zilong, who is much younger than himself, Luo Chao also admires him in his heart, and he is worthy of being the youngest general of the White Dragon Army.
After dawn, Luo Chao led people to find nearly 2,000 war horses, and then joined forces with Zhao Zilong.
At the same time, Luo Chao sent people to return to Phoenix City as soon as possible to report to Li Zixiao.
