Tiantang Splendid

Chapter 3699 Brave war

Changsun Jiaqing was startled, and was about to yell at him, but his expression turned pale, he threw away his job, grabbed the horizontal knife at the side, and strode out from the tent door.

The night was dark.

A loud noise made the whole camp agitated, and soldiers who didn't know what was inside ran out of the camp one after another, looked around, and asked what happened.

A general ran to the door of the big tent, and Sun Jiaqing asked anxiously, "What happened?"

The general said: "The shelling in the Zheng's camp in Xingyang is probably the work of the Shangyou Tunwei in Longshouyuan."

The eldest Sun Jiaqing clenched the horizontal knife tightly, with a serious expression on his face.

It stands to reason that Fang Jun would never dare to start a war arbitrarily, let alone target the nearly [-] troops outside the Tonghua Gate... But Fang Jun has always made dangerous moves, and he is bold and reckless. You can't rely on the prince's favor to boldly start a war.

Or, maybe there is the prince's instruction behind it...

But once the war starts, it can't be stopped by anyone who wants to. If both sides kill each other, you will die. Wouldn't it be in vain for Li Ji, who stationed troops in Tongguan to sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight?
Although Fang Jun is a mallet, he is not so stupid...

"boom!"

There was another loud noise, and this time Changsun Jiaqing could see clearly that the impact of the shell was more than a hundred feet in front of the big tent. When the shell landed, a huge fireball shot up into the sky, and the ground under his feet trembled. It trembled, it was obviously a kerosene bomb.

Changsun Jiaqing's complexion changed drastically, and he shouted: "Test shooting! This is a test shooting by You Tunwei! The whole army is ready to fight, and the volley of You Tunwei is coming!"

The generals and soldiers around were in a panic, and hurriedly conveyed orders to the various troops.

Although Changsun Jiaqing knew little about firearms, he understood the principle of trial firing before artillery salvos. Once the angle, direction, and distance were found for the trial firing, a large-scale salvo would follow.

Right now, there are not many remaining cannons in the Youtunwei. Since the foundry bureau was destroyed and the shells cannot be replenished, it is difficult to launch an earth-shattering artillery battle.However, Changsun Jiaqing knew the quality of these troops under his command, and there was no need for large-scale killing. Just firing a few shots indiscriminately could cause these troops to be demoralized and morale collapsed, and then they had no desire to fight and fled in embarrassment...

Changsun Jiaqing made a decisive decision, took the horse and turned up, holding a horizontal knife in his hand, and ordered his own soldiers and generals to gather the army. He must lead the direct troops of the Changsun family under his command to stand in the front and block the right guards who are likely to come one after another. Charge, otherwise, once the cavalry of Youtunwei enters the formation, the mutiny of Xiaoying is likely to happen.

The result of the complete collapse of nearly [-] troops is something that the entire Guanlong cannot bear...

Before Sun Jiaqing could call up the army, overwhelming artillery fire ensued.

In the pitch-black night sky, the shell shot out of the barrel and drew a parabola dragging orange flames in the air, flying over a distance of more than one hundred feet, and then plunged fiercely into the position of the Guanlong army outside the Tonghua Gate, "Boom boom boom "The ground shook and the mountains shook, and flames shot up into the sky one after another, and the whole barracks instantly brightened up.

Numerous soldiers and horses ran and shouted in the flames ignited at the instant the shell exploded, and were immediately hit by shrapnel flying around unscrupulously. The shrapnel carried huge kinetic energy, easily pierced into the body, cut limbs, and lost limbs and arms for a while. Throwing everywhere, blood becomes a river.

Nearly 10 people gathered in the narrow area between Tonghua Gate and Longshou Canal. The camps stretched for more than ten miles. At this moment, the northern camp was bombarded, and the soldiers lost their command in panic. , slamming headlong into the army formation behind.

Fortunately, it seems that the ammunition reserves of You Tunwei are indeed insufficient. After a fierce shelling, the artillery fire gradually decreased, but immediately, there was an extremely dull sound of horseshoes from far to near.

It was not easy for Changsun Jiaqing to gather his direct troops, and when he heard the scouts report that it was the cavalry of the Right Tunwei who had launched a surprise attack, he immediately ordered the deputy general who was also from the Changsun family: "Lead my troops to charge up, and be sure to block the right Tunwei. cavalry!"

Then he ordered the left and right generals: "Order all the ministries, restrain the army, stop the chaos, advance from the original direction of the two pterosaurs, and then move closer to the middle. Today, I will surround the right guard and wipe them all out!"

"Here!"

The generals hurriedly rode to the troops everywhere and issued military orders.

The moment the sound of the cannon disappeared, a cavalry soldier with black helmets and black armor suddenly jumped out of the dark night, countless horseshoes trampled on the ground, swooping down like a black cloud cover, taking advantage of the terrain. He slammed into the front of the Guanlong army.

The chaotic Guanlong army caused by the shelling was scattered and panicked. Although they received the order from Changsun Jiaqing, how could they have time to gather the army?As a result, the cavalry of Youtunwei formed a frontal formation, breaking into the front formation of the Guanlong army as easily as hot knives cutting butter, killing wantonly and violently.

"Iron cavalry in armor!"

"It's an armored cavalry!"

The Guanlong soldiers resisted at first, but found that this cavalry was well armored and invulnerable, and then they were horrified to find that the opponent was an unrivaled armored cavalry!
Panic spread and intensified in an instant, and with the charge of the armored cavalry, the Guanlong soldiers in the front line swept backward like the ebb tide, fleeing desperately.

The furious charge of the armored cavalry, where the knife shines, the broken limbs and arms are thrown around, and countless soldiers are like scarecrows killing wantonly, blood is like a river.

irresistible.

Even the regular army of Zuo Tunwei, when facing the charge of the Right Tunwei equipped with iron cavalry, they lost their helmets and armor, and suffered a crushing defeat, let alone these mobs right now?

The Fengshi formation with the armored cavalry group was like a huge cluster of arrows, piercing fiercely into the camp of the Guanlong army, killing wildly wherever it went.

In the distance, Changsun Jiaqing saw that the front line had completely collapsed, and countless routs were crying and fleeing backwards, knocking his own army apart as he watched, and his eyes were tearing apart.Facing this kind of iron cavalry charge, the best way is to tie up the formation, grit your teeth and resist it, and wait until the charge is exhausted, then swarm up and surround it, gnawing down bit by bit.

Once the battle line is scattered by it, no matter how many troops are, they can only flee in all directions like a flock of sheep driven by wild wolves, and finally be torn apart and swallowed.

The eldest Sun Jiaqing yelled on horseback: "Supervise the battle formation, but if there are those who retreat and flee, they will be killed without mercy!"

"Here!"

Dozens of soldiers of the supervisory team with helmets and armor behind them stepped forward and lined up to block the route of the retreating soldiers. Whenever the rout soldiers approached, they would cut their heads and cover their faces with the horizontal knife in their hands without saying a word.Before half a cup of tea was available, hundreds of rout soldiers lay dead on the spot, and they were finally frightened by the rout soldiers, who no longer dared to flee without thinking.

Seeing that the situation had stabilized, Changsun Jiaqing brandished the horizontal knife.Shouted: "Follow me to kill the enemy!"

Tens of thousands of troops from the Sun family's direct line followed closely behind, and the smoke and dust billowed towards the oncoming armored cavalry.

"boom!"

The two armies collided fiercely like a roaring torrent, blood spattered and stumps flew all over the place.Equipped iron cavalry is indeed more suitable for charging, invincible and domineering, but the number of Guanlong troops is too large, thousands of hedgehogs gather on the battlefield, crowded shoulder to shoulder, and the soldiers in front are beheaded by horizontal knives and trampled by iron hooves. Paoze at the back didn't know it, and continued to move forward, causing the dead soldiers to be trampled by both sides, and they had already turned into piles of meat paste.

The battle was extremely brutal.

However, it also successfully offset the charge force of a part of the armored cavalry, hindering its offensive and making it difficult to exert a strong charge advantage.

Changsun Jiaqing was overjoyed, and shouted again and again to command the soldiers to press on. As long as the armored cavalry was entangled tightly, the troops on the two wings of the detour would be able to close together and surround them, making it impossible to escape.

What a glorious feat to be able to annihilate Fang Jun's main force head-on?Just thinking about it makes people tremble with excitement.

……

Gao Kan was riding on the back of a horse covered in iron armor, and a long lance in his hand was flying up and down. One moment the horizontal lance swept an enemy off the horse, and the next moment it plunged into an enemy's chest. Shaking, the enemy's corpse was lifted into the air, and fell far into the enemy's formation, knocking down a few enemy soldiers, and a group of people turned their backs on their backs.

More and more enemy troops gathered in the front, back, left, and right sides. Even though the ground was soaked in blood and corpses were strewn everywhere, they still charged forward with red eyes and howling.

Gao Kan didn't panic at all.

He never underestimated the enemy, but he did not take the Guanlong soldiers in front of him seriously.Lack of training, crude armaments, low morale... What is such an army even if it has millions?It's just a group of dolphins waiting to be slaughtered.

Ma Qian stabbed an enemy soldier to death, and when he saw the densely packed enemy soldiers surrounding him, instead of retreating, he yelled: "Boys, follow me to the battle!"

With a wave of the long lance, he headed towards the densely populated place to kill the enemy.
