Chapter 687: Jinxi Destroys Hu Qi (Middle)
Zeng Huai did not make any additional comments, because respect comes from each other. Not to mention that the straightforward deployment is really very comprehensive, even if there are any subtle shortcomings, Zeng Huai also understands that what he should do is to make up for it without hurting its dignity.
"Those who commit crimes against me will be punished even if they are far away, ......"
"Those who mess with my Great Song Dynasty will destroy their ......"
The main general and the military envoy are in harmony, and the soldiers under the command of the two are naturally more concerted. When the order was heard everywhere, the earth-shattering shouts made the plain no longer quiet. In the midst of the shouts of Naqi, the two cavalry teams rushed out to the two flanks first.
"Boom, boom, boom......"
Immediately, the Shenmu II cannon, which was following behind the Zhiyanzhi army, was pushed into the center of the army's formation, and a dense rain of cannonballs was unleashed at the Tatar cavalry who were rioting and were attacking the two flanks.
Artillery is an unprecedented novelty for the steppe peoples. The power of this kind of novelty was only heard of by a few people in the upper echelons of that tribe from the mouth of the Jin army general, but they had never really seen it.
When they heard the sound of cannons, those tribal leaders were still arrogantly thinking that it was an excuse for the incompetently defeated Jin army, and they didn't believe that the Song army's artillery could really bombard a crowd of people to meet the ghost king in an instant.
The Tatars, who were blindly arrogant, soon paid the price for their arrogance.
As soon as the shells fired from the first round of artillery shelling fell into the Tatar formation, they first tore off the horses of the cavalry on both flanks and the Tatar cavalry on both flanks in pieces, and blew up the Tatar cavalry on both flanks.
Unable to react to the Tatars, a large group of Song cavalry with strange big cylinders on their shoulders rushed out of the large formation and rushed to the front of the Tatar formation in the blink of an eye.
As soon as the cavalry of the Song army, carrying a strange big cylinder, came to the front, they immediately dismounted in batches and in a very orderly manner and lay on the ground. Aimed those big cans at the Tatar cavalry.
"Boom, boom, boom......"
"Boom, boom, boom......"
The bazooka fired. And it was two hundred paces away, and a rain of rockets poured out from the main front line of the Tatar cavalry.
This rain of rockets is coming. Woke up the Tatar chiefs. At almost the same time as those rockets exploded, they shouted loudly and shouted out three or four groups of Tatar cavalry who were originally in the Chinese army and rushed towards the Song army rocketeers who were lying on the ground.
"Yes, it's a bit of a head." From afar, when he saw the Tatars counterattacking and trying to attack the rocketeers he had sent out with cavalry, he sneered and said this first.
Then he turned his head and shouted loudly to the messenger behind him: "Xiao Wenshan can make a move, let him take the 10,000 return horses to attack me, and attract the Hu cavalry who came out of the enemy formation to me." ”
After receiving the order, he turned around and rode out. Only after a short period of time. More than 10,000 people wearing iron armor and under the command of Liu Xing on Wutai Mountain, the Guide composed of Khitan, Xi and Jurchen rushed out of the Song army's large array like lightning.
Cavalry, during the Han and Tang dynasties, was the strongest in the Central Plains. However, even in the Han and Tang dynasties, Donghu and Xiyi grew up on horseback because they lived on the prairie all day long, and their cavalry combat power was not inferior to the cavalry of the Central Plains.
And the 10,000 people under Zhi Yanzhi's hands were the strongest group of people who had the strongest riding and archery skills among the three clans of the descendants of Donghu who returned to Liu Xing. As soon as they rushed to the side of the Tatar cavalry, who had remounted their horses and began to retreat, and kept shooting with muskets at the Tatar cavalry, they immediately raised their carbines and joined in the cavalry fire.
The volley of 20,000 muskets made the land on the plain suddenly bewildered by the smoke of gunpowder, covering all the 20,000 cavalry of the Song army.
The obstacle formed by the smoke covered the 20,000 soldiers of the Song army. The group of Tatar remnants who had rushed dozens of paces away suddenly stopped their horses in a burst of surprise.
Just as the Tatar cavalry reined in their horses and looked in amazement to see the scene in the fog formed by the smoke of gunpowder. The neighing of the horses and the shooting of thousands of lightning bolts.
The 10,000 Guides took advantage of the surprise of the Tatar cavalry to stop the war, and suddenly rushed out of the fog with a shout. The horses are galloping. The Guides hung their muskets behind them and took their bows and arrows from behind the saddle.
"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh......"
The first rays of dawn swayed from the top of the east mountain to the staggered battlefield of the Liang army at the right time when the sound of 10,000 cavalry shooting began in Guide. However, the swaying of that rays of light also made the leaders of the Tatar tribes in the rear completely see the scene on the battlefield.
When they saw that more than 24,000 Tatar men had been killed in just one moment, and that the 10,000 Guides had rushed to the front of their army, and were constantly firing projectiles and arrows at their formations with bows and muskets in a wandering tactic, the leaders were all stunned.
"O gods! Those Song people are demon gods, right? How could you kill so many of my brothers in such a short period of time! When a Tatar leader saw the sight, he exclaimed, as if to himself.
When the other leader heard his words, he also looked at the Deqi in astonishment and said: "Those, those Khitan and Xi people, when did they have such combat power." Could it be that Wu Qimai's subordinates did not tell a lie? That Liu Xing really has the ability to destroy the world and recreate the divine power, and he can actually make such a group of fools all become butchers with such powerful combat power in such a short period of time! ”
"Hugh will say more, brothers, follow me and rush forward! A miscellaneous horse with 10,000 stupid three clans mixed together, how could I be the opponent of the Tatar god horseman! Fight back, fight back! Just as the leader had finished speaking, a roar suddenly came from behind him.
At the roar, the great leader of the great tribe drove his horse forward, and led about two thousand Tatar cavalry to the guide horsemen.
The two leaders saw that the big leader rushed out first, but they looked at each other, and neither of them responded to the big leader's order.
On the contrary, as soon as the 2,000 cavalry led by the great leader approached the Guide cavalry, and 40,000 Song cavalry cavalry appeared in the rear, the two leaders actually gave a shameful order to the men and horses of their headquarters around them at the same time: retreat and retreat to the valley.
These two troops, with about 17,800 men left, really ignored the fact that the big leader had been surrounded by a rain of fire, and turned around and fled together in the direction of the valley as if they were dead. (To be continued.) )
