Chapter 803: Ming Jun's Demon Magic
Of course, even so, the thunderbolts can still inflict a lot of damage on them, but these cave soldiers are just using clever methods to reduce casualties a little while being hard-headed.
At this time, the Ming army's triple crossbow and green Gongshui also became powerful.
Three crossbows and a strafing shot, so that those who were lucky enough to rush into the Ming army's position of the Dong Wu soldiers are almost with "thorns", some of the Dong Wu soldiers were hit by several arrows, until they rushed to the Ming army position only to find that they were hit by the arrow, and then desperately cried and chopped indiscriminately, and it didn't take long to fall.
The green water is more terrifying than the thunderbolt, especially when it is sprayed condescendingly, one by one, it is simply a human life harvester.
Those cave soldiers who were sprayed by the green gong water didn't care at first, but after a while, they found that their hands, faces, and clothes were sneering and smoking, and the pain in their hearts and the terrifying sense of the melting of flesh and blood made them reassured that they were in hell.
By this time, more than half of the 5,000 Wu soldiers had been lost, and their morale had disappeared.
Look at these ghost crying wolf howls and running around the mountains, which of them still wants to stay here and continue to fight?
The time was almost up, and the Ming army swarmed up and began to slaughter.
Qin Shuhuai hadn't been in battle for a long time, his hands were itching, and he was harvesting everywhere with the Yitian Sword, and all the sword light was blood and stumps.
The Dongwu soldiers soon discovered that even if they risked their lives to rush into the Ming army's position, they were greeted with death.
In terms of close combat, they are still several grades behind the Ming army.
Equipment, morale, training, personal quality, Dongwu soldiers are backward in all aspects, and even after the baptism of thunderbolts, strong crossbows, and green gongshui in the Ming army, their number is less than that of the Ming army.
How can this battle be fought?
Most of these Dongwu soldiers are veterans and don't collapse so easily, but in the face of this kind of battle with no chance of winning or even fighting with no chance of survival, they really collapsed.
As a result, a large number of Dongwu soldiers chose to run down the mountain, strictly speaking, the kind of chaos that seemed to have seen a ghost and spread out their feet and didn't even look in the direction.
There are also a large number of Dongwu soldiers who chose to surrender, because they found that as long as they threw away their weapons and knelt on the ground with their heads in their hands and shrunk into a ball, the Ming army would really let them go - this is much safer than escaping, if you don't escape fast enough, the Ming army will catch up and kill you.
As for the tough commander just now?
Don't you see that even the soldiers who are supervising the battle have run away?
Of the more than 5,000 Dongwu soldiers who attacked from the west, all but 1,000 surrendered and more than 300 fled.
Qin Shuhuai easily solved the problem here, and Zu Dashou in the south was also quite easy.
The five thousand people in his hands also included two hundred Demon Sect Flame Banners and two hundred River Gang Cottage Fire Banners, and they were also equipped with a large amount of Green Gong Water, although they faced nearly twice as many enemy troops, they fought unhurriedly.
Qin Shuhuai saw that the south was relatively stable, so he immediately took 3,000 men and horses to help Zhang Xiao in the north.
Although Zhang Xiao had 7,000 people, he was facing the 20,000 elites of the main force of the Dongwu Army, and it was not easy to fight.
The Dongwu people are very experienced in mountain warfare, and Zhang Xiao is also equipped with a similar number of thunderbolts, green gongshui, and strong crossbows, but he can't stand the opponent's large number of people, and the northern slope is wider, which is convenient for the Dongwu soldiers to disperse and rush up.
As a result, the two sides soon got into close contact.
However, the Ming army of 7,000 people is not afraid to deal with the opponent's 20,000 people, after all, the advantages of equipment, personal cultivation and morale are there, and this gap is enough to make up for the disadvantage of troops.
In the north, it can be said that the two sides fought evenly matched, and even the Ming army had a slight advantage.
In all fairness, with the combat effectiveness of this Ming army, even if it is 7,000 enemies and 20,000, it is enough to defeat the opponent, it is only a matter of time and the size of casualties.
The source of soldiers in this army is the best in the world - the vast majority of people have their own martial arts, and it is easy to fight against ordinary people.
The armament of this army is the best in the world, from armor to weapons, from long-range to short-range coverage.
The training, morale, and even the faith, experience, and pride they have accumulated after fighting tough battles are unmatched by any army.
Therefore, Zhang Xiao commanded very calmly.
And when Qin Shuhuai arrived with 3,000 reinforcements, there was no suspense about the Ming army's crushing.
Qin Shuhuai first pulled out the Flame Banner alone, specifically to deal with the Dongwu soldiers who rushed up later, while he took the rest of the people to divide into more than a dozen columns and repeatedly attacked the Dongwu soldiers.
After disrupting the opposing front, the Ming army began to divide the enemy army, and then wiped out the enemy piece by piece.
Everything is going according to plan, no matter how the Dongwu people change and send them, they are powerless to turn the tide of the war.
Absolute strength can create absolute crushing.
Let's say that Talon, who was supervising the war at the foot of the mountain, began to receive requests for more troops.
Needless to say, the whole army in the west was annihilated, and there was no need for more troops.
To the south, the battle report said that the losses were more than half, but the Ming army "fought more and more", and the general in charge of the attack in the south asked Ta Long to give him another 5,000 troops.
In fact, the Ming army is those Ming army, where is the "more and more fighting"? It's just that the Ming army suffered fewer casualties, while the Dongwu army suffered more and more casualties, and of course it seems that there are more and more Ming troops.
As for the north, three groups of people were sent in succession to ask for reinforcements, saying that if there were no reinforcements, they would be completely defeated.
He was as long as pins and needles, and his face was like ashes.
He couldn't have imagined that the group of elite soldiers in his hands who had fought all over Dongwu and the surrounding areas were still beaten to the ground when they were three times the enemy's army.
He felt that now he had to think about the long term.
Now the 10,000 people in his hands can't be added in no matter what, and if they are added, there must be no return.
He wants to run!
The Ming army came from afar, and it was very difficult to supply logistics.
And Dongwu is his hometown, and he believes that even if there are Dongwu people who are dissatisfied with him, at least most of the Dongwu people still recognize him as a king.
There are three million people in Dongwu, as long as he slowly figures it out and operates slowly, one day he can make a comeback and drive the Ming army out of Dongwu!
He was thinking about this, when suddenly someone outside the account came in a panic to report the height.
"Your Majesty, it's not good, Your Majesty, our people seem to have fallen into the demon magic of the Ming people, and all the good ones are dead!"
"What?" he stood up with a furrowed frown, "Hex?"
The man nodded desperately and shouted with a crying voice, "Your Majesty, come out and take a look, they are all dead!
As he was talking, suddenly the man's face changed, and then he convulsed all over, covered his neck with his hands and said a few words with a strange expression, "Woo ahh
He stared at the man with wide eyes, only to see that black pus and blood were flowing from his eyes, nose, and ears, and he was motionless at this time.
