Chapter 1096

"Second Young Master! The brothers have already lost three hundred lives, and if you beat them again, you will die even more!"

A general who followed Li Rubai roared in a low voice, he had already attacked three times, and the Japanese pirates inside did not show their heads, they just bombarded them with iron cannons, and maybe there were also surrendering soldiers from North Korea, shooting arrows out continuously inside. The cavalry in western Liaoning suffered a lot of casualties. For an army of 4000 soldiers, 300 deaths would be painful, but it would not hurt their vitality. low.

This army general is called "Second Young Master" instead of "Chief Soldier". Obviously he got angry, and he no longer uses the name in the army, but in the clan.

Being called out like this, Li Rubai's face turned ashen, but he no longer sent anyone to attack, but said coldly:
"Leave 2000 people on the spot to monitor, send someone back to tell my brother, and the rest will follow me to move forward."

It was only at this time that I realized that it made no difference whether the village was fought or not, especially for their cavalry, which was even more frustrating.

Three days later, Li Rusong led the army to arrive, and he couldn't say too much about his own brother's command, he just said:

"It's right for you to arrange thousands of people to watch. You can't leave this place alone, or the grain road will be threatened."

For such a stockade, Li Rusong's method is simple, and he directly ordered:

"Bomb!"

In the border towns close to Beizhili, all of them bought cannons in the workshops of Tianjin Wei. Everyone was unwilling to spend more money, so the moderately priced and powerful six-pound cannon became the best choice.

The general of the Li family was more willing to spend money on this than others, but he bought ten nine-jin cannons. However, there is a saying that Tianjin Weijiangfang sells cannons to various border towns. This is also out of consideration of checks and balances, and the border town cannot have too many field artillery.

But after setting this rule, the actual situation is very speechless. Except for Xuanfu, Jizhen, and Liaozhen, the rest of the towns are not interested at all. Among the troops directly under the general army, Liao Zhen purchased nine-pound cannons for city defense, that's all.

People from Yulin Town once came to buy six-pound cannons. Because they were rarely interested there, the Sanjiang system arranged for an investigation, and it turned out that a certain merchant group on the grassland wanted to buy them. The deal was naturally rejected.

There are no cannon carriages and carriages, but the former General Cannons also did not have carriages and carriages, but the nine-pound cannons made by Sanjiang Workshop are lighter than those made by other workshops in Ming Dynasty, the quality is better, and the range is also farther, so I just took them over. used.

Putting down the cannon, he aimed at the village, the first shot missed the target, but the second shot directly punched a hole in the wooden fence, and the next few shots directly knocked down the wooden fence.

The barrier of this earthen village was broken down, and seeing several cannons being pushed up, the Japanese pirate army in the village also knew that they could not stick to it. Hearing the shouts inside, the flags waving, the soldiers and horses inside were also pouring out.

At this time, the disadvantages of this earthen village are revealed, the road connecting the inside and outside is quite narrow, it is not easy for others to attack, but it is also not easy for one's own attack.

Although the soldiers and horses of the Liao Township here did not step forward, the artillery kept bombarding them. The Japanese soldiers and horses supported the artillery to line up on the flat ground. Under the condition of the continuous falling of the shells, the soldiers and horses continued to be killed and injured. , if it wasn't for the tight terrain, the team might not be able to hold on and just disperse.

If you have good weapons, you must have good discipline and training. If you don't clean the barrel carefully, there will be too much gunpowder residue in the barrel, and the barrel will fire quickly. In order to prevent the barrel from exploding, you must stop shooting.

Moreover, the artillery in Liaozhen couldn't fire as quickly as the Huwei Army's artillery team. When they saw the enemy array, they were not sure to block the enemy's charge with artillery fire. The artillerymen's movements were out of shape, and they slowed down greatly.

Li Rusong and others also understood their virtue, but the Japanese pirates wanted to fight in the field, which was exactly what they wanted, and they immediately transferred the cavalry.

"Each of us pays three hundred!"

"Brother, you have taken away a lot of old backgrounds. You will pay four hundred, and I will give two hundred!"

The Li family's family members are the lifeblood of the Li family's generals. Although it is before the war, they still have to pay more for whom and bargain, but there is nothing too fussy about it. This amount is within his range.

The flag was waved, and some people who were originally among the cavalry began to line up. It was originally a mixed group, but at this time one could see the difference. Most of the people who came out were wearing tiger plate armor, and the horses were taller and stronger than usual , people are even more so.

A trusted general of the Li family had long shouted that the cavalry from Qianliao town were lined up in front of the formation, but they formed a sharp forward formation.

With a sharp whistle, the cavalry of the Li family began to move forward slowly. Although the first few people were holding weapons with both hands, and some people wanted to hold the banner, they didn't hold the reins, but their mounts still obeyed the control. Stepping forward, six hundred armored cavalry moved in a neat formation, and behind them was a large group of scattered cavalry.

Accelerating gradually, the two wings of the sharp formation slowly moved forward, and the formation gradually became a horizontal formation. As the speed gradually increased, the sound of hooves became more and more intensive, and the ground began to vibrate.

".Buddha!!"

".Da Mingshen."

The already scattered Japanese pirate formation was even more chaotic, and many people were panicking and shouting, praying to the Buddha and their gods.

These Japanese soldiers and horses in North Korea are indeed veterans who have been trained for a long time in the Warring States Period. They are not afraid of death. They have also seen cavalry, but what kind of cavalry they have seen? On horses the size of donkeys, there is no way to compare with the momentum in front of them. The armored cavalry is on top of the tall horses, and the cavalry rushes forward, as if the sky is falling apart.

Everyone felt trembling unconsciously, they didn't feel that the spear in their hands could withstand the charge like a sea tide.

"These damned Kinki bastards know to let the warriors of the Western Kingdom go to die. The Iron Cannon Team is ready to step forward, and the Archer Team is ready to step forward!!"

The generals of the Japanese pirates were yelling curses there, but they still had to deal with it. More than a hundred iron artillery soldiers also tremblingly came to the front of the queue, and the archer team was behind the iron artillery soldiers.

This is just a short period of time. The cavalry has arrived. They were originally fighting against the cavalry and infantry of the Tartars. The Liao cavalry also had the habit of firing a round of bows and arrows when they approached. Seeing such an enemy, the cavalry of the Li family They are all contempt to the extreme, and they just let the horse go and rushed up.

Entering the range of the iron cannon, the iron cannon opened fire. Under such momentum, the iron artillery soldiers of the Japanese pirates could not concentrate. The thirty or so riders in front of them were directly overturned, but the momentum had already started, and the speed of the brigade did not slow down at all. , or continue to rush forward.

For the soldiers and horses of the Japanese pirates, this is the first time they have seen such cavalry. They have no way to accurately judge the speed of the cavalry. Many iron artillery soldiers are still preparing to load ammunition and shoot the second round. They suddenly heard thunderous hooves. Arrows whizzed overhead.

It is already within the range of the bow and arrow, and the distance is already so close. When I raised my head, the cavalry had already arrived.

The iron cannon team of more than a hundred people did not have the slightest hindering effect, and was directly submerged under the horseshoes by hundreds of armored cavalry.

If it was the Tiger's Mighty Army, they would have already raised their spears at this time, facing the cavalry like a hedgehog. Of course, the Tiger's Mighty Army's firecrackers would not let the enemy's cavalry approach so easily.

But this is the Japanese pirates. After being bombarded by artillery and seeing such a cavalry attack, they are already terrified and have no courage to fight in formation. The cavalry rushed past the iron artillery team and the bow and arrow team. They collapsed immediately, and the leading warriors turned around and slashed, and some roared and stepped forward, but in such a situation, a knife or a gun would have no effect at all, and would only be crushed by this ferocious charge.

More samurai reacted no better than those ashigaru, they also turned around and fled, the cavalry chased and fled, and slashed their weapons towards the enemy's back, which was the easiest thing to do.

In addition to the elite cavalry in front, there is also a large group of cavalry behind. The Japanese pirates have no escape at this time, and it is a situation of complete annihilation.
However, the cavalry chasing at the front slowed down after the enemy broke up. When the enemy fled in all directions and became no threat, the charging cavalry jumped off their horses and began to chop off the enemy's head. , and the same is true for the large cavalry behind.

The cavalry who stopped their horses naturally hindered the progress of those behind, and the offensive of the entire army soon came to a standstill. Enough enemies were killed, and at most less than four hundred Japanese pirates escaped from the battlefield.

Looking at the subordinates who were clamoring for the head in front of them, there was also a group of people who knew they couldn't get the head, but they rushed directly into the village, wanting to search for property.

In such a chaotic situation, it is impossible to send people to continue chasing the remnants of the enemy. However, Li Rusong and Li Rubai are all familiar with this situation, and they don't feel that it is wrong at all. Li Rubai waved excitedly immediately Whip, opened his mouth and said:
"I'll find another Korean village later, and gather three thousand Japanese pirate heads. This is the first achievement of entering the dynasty. Let them report to the capital as soon as possible."

Li Rusong didn't care about this, he just looked to the east and said to himself:
"It will be Pyongyang soon!"
