Chapter 450: Serial Thunder Array
"What's the name of this place?" When Fan You and the others entered the valley in front of the fallen leaf slope, out of the sensitivity of the soldiers, he couldn't help but glance at the steep hills on both sides and asked several rebel generals beside him.
"My lord, this place is called Fallen Leaf Valley, and it is named after the fallen leaf slope at the exit in front." When a rebel general from Sanjiang Prefecture heard this, he replied with a smile, "After the Fallen Leaf Valley, you will arrive at Sanjiang City in more than 20 miles." ”
"If it was the Ming army, it would definitely set up ambushes on the mountains on both sides, and it would definitely inflict heavy losses on our army." Fan You couldn't help laughing when he heard this, and said with disdain, "It's a pity, the Ming army has now become a ...... shock."
Speaking of this, Fan You's brows couldn't help frowning slightly, and he turned his head to look at Cai Fu on the side, he couldn't think of how to say the idiom on his lips for a while.
"The Bird of Surprise." Seeing this, Cai Fu hurriedly said with a smile on his face, and he felt a burst of contempt for Fan You in his heart, he didn't even know a few barbarians, and he even wanted to be vassal.
"Yes, Frightened Bird." Fan You nodded when he heard this, and said to the rebel generals around him with a mocking smile, "The Ming army has now become a frightened bird, and only dares to hide in the city as a turtle with a shrunken head. ”
"Haha......" Several rebel generals on the side immediately laughed when they heard this, Fan You compared the Ming army in Sanjiang City to a turtle with a shrunken head, but it was really quite vivid.
Cai Fu also laughed with everyone, but the smile was extremely embarrassing, after all, he used to be the commander of the Ming Dynasty, the senior general of the Ming army, and Fan You laughed at the Ming army in Sanjiang City like this, and he was not comfortable in his heart.
While Fan You and others were talking and laughing, the group leisurely walked through the valley.
Not long after leaving the mouth of the valley, there was a sudden muffled sound of "boom" in front of the marching procession, like thunder.
"What's going on?" Everyone was immediately attracted by the muffled sound, and Fan You couldn't help but look ahead in surprise, but unfortunately he was hundreds of meters away from the front of the team, and he couldn't see the situation in front of him at all.
As soon as Fan You's words fell, several muffled sounds came one after another, making the marching rebel team can't help but stop, looking at each other, not knowing what is happening in front of them, which makes the rebel soldiers in the valley gather more and more.
Boom, boom, boom......
In the stunned expressions of the rebel soldiers, the muffled sound of cannons in front of them was heard, and the terrible screams could be faintly heard.
Fan You didn't know why, he looked ahead with a shocked face, he had never encountered such a strange thing before, and he didn't know where these muffled noises came from.
Soon, the rebel soldiers in the front line turned around and retreated, and in a hurry to flee for their lives, many rebel soldiers walked through the mountains on both sides of the road.
"My lord, it's not good, our army has been attacked by earth fire, and many brothers have been blown to pieces, with heavy casualties." At this time, a rebel general rode from the front of the queue, his face was pale, and he said to Fan You with a frightened face, as if he had been greatly frightened.
"Earthfire?" Fan You was slightly stunned when he heard this, and he didn't know what the earth fire that the rebel general was referring to.
Just when he was puzzled, a muffled sound came from the front again, Fan You subconsciously looked up, and then he was stunned, only to see some figures rising in the air from time to time among the retreating soldiers in front, and some figures were divided into several black shadows in the air and scattered around.
"Kill!" Almost at the same time, a tsunami of shouts was heard ahead.
"Enemy attack!" Fan You was stunned at first, then his face changed greatly, he brushed out the knife on his waist, and yelled at the rebel soldiers around him who had begun to panic, "Brothers, the Ming army is here, there are not many of them, follow the general to kill the enemy." ”
As he spoke, Fan You clamped his legs around the horse's belly and took the lead in running forward, preparing to meet the Ming army that was ambushed here, he knew that the Ming army did not have many people, and as long as the rebels swarmed up, they would definitely not be opponents.
Hearing Fan You's shout, the surrounding rebel soldiers followed him with weapons, and due to the limited width of the road, many soldiers rushed to the mountains on both sides of the road, ready to follow Fan You to kill the enemy.
Boom, boom, boom......
With this action of the rebel soldiers, the mines buried on both sides of the road were detonated one after another.
Because the rebel soldiers were so dense, every time a mine exploded, two or three rebel soldiers were blown up into the air, with severed limbs and flesh flying, and the rebel soldiers within the explosion range were hit by the scattered shrapnel and fell to the ground groaning in pain.
A series of violent explosions frightened the horses at the scene, and before Fan You could ride far, a mine on the side of the road in front of him on his left was stepped on by a panicked rebel soldier, and after a bang, the soldier screamed and flew into the sky.
Because the explosion was relatively close to Fan You, Fan You witnessed the soldier disintegrate in the air, blood splattered everywhere.
At the same time, the horse he was sitting on was also startled by the explosion, and after neighing, it suddenly raised its front hooves, flipped the unsuspecting Fan You to the ground, and then pulled out his legs and ran towards the side of the hill, knocking over several rebel soldiers in its way one after another.
"Come back!" Fan You was quickly helped up by the rebel soldiers on the side, and when he saw that his well-trained military horse was also frightened, he couldn't help but shout at it with some chagrin.
How could the horse listen to Fan You's words at this time, and still run forward.
Then, under Fan You's horrified gaze, a flash of fire suddenly flashed under the horse's body, and then its body soared three or four meters into the air, and then fell heavily, and several rebels around were hit by the exploding single piece and fell to the ground with a wail.
Blocked by the chaotic rebel soldiers in front of him, Fan You didn't see his horse fall to the ground, but it was clear that it wouldn't survive.
Listening to the muffled sound that sounded in his ears from time to time, Fan You looked at the rebel soldiers who were running around in a mess and running around a little blankly, as well as those soldiers who fell to the ground and groaned in pain, he didn't know what was going on, why there was an explosion on the ground, could it be that the Ming army really invited the "earth fire" to help in the battle.
"My lord, withdraw, the Ming army has killed." When he was stunned, a rebel general walked up with a dozen of his subordinates who pushed away the chaotic rebel soldiers and said to him in a deep voice.
"Withdraw!" Fan You suddenly came back to his senses and gave an order with an expressionless face, now that the rebels are in turmoil, and there is a "earth fire" to blame, even if he wants to fight with the Ming army, I am afraid that he will not be able to organize an effective attack.
"Retreat!" The rebel general hurriedly shouted, and retreated towards the valley with Fan You in his arms.
With Fan You's order, the panicked rebel soldiers suddenly rushed towards the mouth of the valley, scrambling to retreat to the valley.
The rebel soldiers in the valley did not know what was happening yet, and the rebel generals who were pressing the formation in the back had a premonition that there was an ambush by the Ming army in front, so they ordered the soldiers to quickly go out of the valley to reinforce.
As a result, the retreating rebels and the reinforcing rebels were at a stalemate at the mouth of the valley, which caused more and more rebel soldiers on the left and right sides of the valley mouth, and also caused the mines buried there to be detonated like cannons, which not only caused heavy casualties to the rebel soldiers, but also caused their psychological damage to the bloody and terrifying scenes.
The Ming army, which followed behind the retreating rebel soldiers, frantically pursued and killed the rebel soldiers who were left behind, they had been pressed and beaten by the rebels for so long, and they had already harbored a cloud of anger in their hearts, which was just released at this time, and at the same time to avenge the dead brothers.
Han Wei stood on a small hillside, looking at the Ming army chasing the rebels with a look of surprise, to be honest, he never thought that the power of those mines would be so huge, so that the rebels panicked, completely forgot to resist, and desperately fled, perhaps this is the best interpretation of "the army is defeated like a mountain".
"Go, pass on the general's order, and those who descend will not be killed!" Soon, Han Wei realized a problem, those pursuing Ming troops seemed to have killed red eyes, and when they encountered those rebels who knelt on the ground and begged for mercy, they cut down one after another, and hurriedly ordered several heralds standing beside him.
Several heralds threw their hands at Han Wei, mounted their horses and hurried to deliver Han Wei's orders to the Ming army on the battlefield.
In fact, it is Li Yuntian's intention not to kill those surrendered rebels, his purpose this time is to give Li Li a dismount, so the more the rebels are annihilated, the better, and the prisoners are also counted in the number of people who annihilate the rebels, and at the same time can reduce the casualties of the Ming army, so as not to put the rebels in the dead place and resist stubbornly, and break the net with the Ming army.
"Lay down your arms, don't kill those who descend!" Soon after, the Ming army that was chasing the rebels shouted loudly to the rebel soldiers in Jiaozhi dialect, which Li Yuntian deliberately let them learn.
Hearing this shout, the rebels who fell behind threw down their weapons one after another, knelt on the ground with their hands raised, and watched in horror as the Ming soldiers ran past them, they were the pursuing troops, and the prisoner collection team that followed behind would be responsible for collecting these prisoners.
The situation at the mouth of the valley is also changing, and the rebel generals in the valley have realized that the situation is not good, and hurriedly ordered the rebels in the valley to retreat, so that the rebels blocking the mouth of the valley can enter the valley.
However, this change came too late, and the pursuing troops of the Ming army had already reached the mouth of the valley, and they did not attack in a straggler line, but followed the plan formulated by Li Yuntian along the main road, like a sharp dagger, quickly seized the control of the valley mouth, and divided the rebels into two parts, left and right, with the main road as the central line.
Seeing this, the rebel soldiers on the left and right sides of the valley mouth ran towards the mountains on both sides, which happened to fall into the strategy of the Ming army, and the reason why the Ming army seized the valley mouth first was to prevent these rebels from retreating to the valley through the valley pass.
After taking control of the mouth of the valley, the Ming army was soon divided into three parts, one to pursue the retreating rebels in the valley, and the other two teams to pursue the rebels fleeing on both sides of the valley mouth, one left and one right.
Because the area on both sides of the valley mouth is still scattered with mines, many rebels were either killed or injured in the process of escaping, which made the morale of the rebels even lower and terrified.
"Go and tell the commander-in-chief that our troops have defeated the rebels and are now pursuing the fleeing enemy." Seeing that the Ming army was chasing the fleeing rebels in three ways, Han Wei suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, it was obvious that the rebels had been defeated, and the Ming army had won a complete victory this time, and then he groaned for a while, and said to a hundred households on the side in high spirits.
As the supreme general commanding this military operation, Han Wei undoubtedly wanted to get the first credit, which really made him excited, and he never expected that he would be able to win such a big battle so quickly.
At the same time, he couldn't help but admire Li Yuntian in his heart, if it weren't for Li Yuntian's arrangement and planning, how could he have won this big victory?!^!
