The world of counterfeit magistrates competes in the world

Chapter 806
The Tianhua army used swords, shields and long spears as the vanguard, and the musketeers were in the rear, killing the army formation directly in front.The whole army shot out from the mountain path like an off-string arrow.

The army formations on both sides of Yuntian immediately started to move, and quickly approached the Tianhua army, trying to cut it in half and encircle it.But the cavalry on the periphery also rushed in at this time, crashing into the army regardless of their care.

Although the Tianyun army was prepared, it was no match for the cavalry's impact. The soldiers and horses who were in charge of guarding against the cavalry were immediately crushed.Most of the army formation that was moving had to stop and turn around to guard against the cavalry.

But the cavalry did not continue to attack, but instead bypassed this army formation and made a detour to avoid it. The purpose was only to force the Tianyun army formation to stop and prevent it from attacking the Tianhua army.What's more, with only a thousand cavalry, it is not so easy to overwhelm the opponent's army formation of thousands of soldiers and horses.If one is not good, but is entangled by the other party, it is not good.

Seeing this, Ma Kuiming couldn't help being anxious, if he couldn't block the Tianhua Army at the mountain pass, once he was allowed to break through his encirclement, the defeat would be irreversible.At this time, he was already deeply annoyed. If there was a cavalry, he could drive away the annoying cavalry of the opponent, and he would not fall into such a passive situation.It's just that after several years of attrition, Tianyun's cavalry has become less and less.Tianyun itself does not produce horses, and under the blockade of Tianhua and Eternal, the number of war horses that can be obtained is extremely rare.Today, Tianyun's remaining [-] cavalry were all transferred to Zhang Yi's army to guard against Leizhou's army during the time of the first emperor.And because he was stationed in Fengzhou, he was not conducive to cavalry battles, so that he didn't even have a single cavalry.

Although the situation was getting worse, Ma Kuiming still did not give up. After setting aside part of his troops to guard against the cavalry, he immediately organized various military formations around him.Gather five or six soldiers and horses, and press down on the Tianhua army with all their strength.

At this time, only [-] soldiers and horses of the Tianhua Army walked out of the mountain path, and Tianyun still had the advantage in terms of strength.As long as the tens of thousands of Chinese troops can be beaten back, the situation will return to the original balance of power again.

Looking at the swarming Tianyun army, the momentum of the Tianhua army's charge remained undiminished, and the two sides collided quickly.The Tianhua spearmen confronted the Tianyun spearmen, and countless spears pierced each other's bodies, and blood burst out at the front line.However, compared to the heavy casualties of the Tianyun Army, the Tianhua Army, where even the spearmen could wear light armor, played a great protective role in this confrontation, and the battle damage rate was far less than that of the Tianyun Army.

Therefore, in the first wave of contests, the Tianhua army rushed over almost like a crush, and the soldiers and horses in the front ranks of Tianyun were completely defeated. There were countless casualties in a short time, and they continued to collapse.There is no way, in order to deal with Tianhua, Tianyun desperately recruits troops, which can supply the armament workshop of the army, but cannot meet the needs of the army.As ordinary pikemen, they didn't even have a decent leather armor. Many of them could only wear a thin military uniform and rely on their flesh and blood to block Tianhua's soldiers.

No matter in terms of military strength or armor and equipment, the Tianyun Army was far behind Tianhua.In this field battle, even though Tianhua's troops were less than Tianyun's, they still outnumbered Tianyun's army and defeated Tianyun's army.What's more, as more and more troops rushed out of the mountain path, Tian Yun's military advantage was gradually lost.

Just when the Tianhua Spearmen blocked the Tianyun Army, countless Musketeers had assembled behind their formation.With a gunshot, like a signal, the spearmen who were fighting immediately crouched down.Before the Tianyun Army could react, the gunfire from the second row of Musketeers started.Afterwards, there was continuous gunfire, continuously harvesting the lives of the Tianyun army.

As more and more Tianhua troops walked out of the mountain path, they immediately formed army formations on both sides to resist the attacks of the Tianyun troops from both sides.

The artillery of the two sides had already started a fierce exchange of fire, and the shells collided wantonly on the positions of the two sides, smashing a path of blood.However, the Tianyun Army's cannons are not much left, and the accuracy is even worse than Tianhua's.Under the continuous attack of Tianhua artillery, the number of Tianyun artillery dropped sharply.

But Tian Yun is not without the strength to fight back. The archers in the formation and behind the army continuously threw arrow rain at the Tianhua Musketeers, which also caused a lot of casualties to the Tianhua Army. After all, the Musketeers' defensive capabilities are indeed very weak.

But with the arrival of mortars and explosive crossbows, shells exploded in the enemy formation, and the Tianyun formation finally collapsed.It's not that they don't want to fight, but that the Tianhua Army's firepower is too fierce, and they can't gain a foothold on the battlefield at all.

Ma Kuiming also saw the situation clearly at this time. Today, the Chinese army has poured out [-] to [-] soldiers and horses, and the attack force is getting stronger and stronger, and the attack methods are also getting more and more.The Tianyun army is not an opponent of the Tianhua army at all in field battles. They can only rely on the city defense to slightly resist the Tianhua army's offensive.

"Woo!~" With the sound of a low-pitched horn, all the Tianyun Army finally felt relieved and retreated one after another.As for the frontmost battlefield, the Tianyun Army had already collapsed and scattered, fleeing in embarrassment.

Ma Kuiming led [-] soldiers and horses, desperately retreating to the south. As for the more than [-] routs in the rear, he was powerless and unable to rescue them.At the same time, it was also counting on these rout soldiers to delay the Tianhua army and cover their withdrawal from the battlefield.

After chasing and killing for more than ten miles, the Tianhua army stopped and took a short rest.In this battle, a total of nearly 10 Tianyun troops were annihilated, of which 2 were captured, and the remaining [-] escaped by chance and ran towards Liuyun City.The Tianhua army also suffered heavy losses in this battle, with nearly [-] horses killed and injured, including more than [-] musketeers, nearly [-] cavalry, and nearly [-] spearmen.

After resting for a day at Shandaokou, the army immediately dispatched 3 soldiers and horses to escort Tianyun prisoners and wounded soldiers to Yushan County, Fengzhou for treatment.In addition, another [-] people were sent to the Tuoling River to clear the Eternal Army and Tianyun Navy there, cutting off the retreat of the Fengzhou Eternal Army.Then, Zheng Han led the remaining tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, and continued southward, aiming at Floating Cloud City.

Two days later, the news of Ma Kuiming's defeat quickly spread to Floating Cloud City, causing a huge shock.Everyone was panicked and trembling.They all understood that with Ma Kuiming's defeat, the Tianhua Army had finally entered Yunzhou, and Tianyun had no power to stop Tianhua from wreaking havoc in Yunzhou.

Soon, Ma Kuiming, who was defeated and returned, led more than [-] soldiers and horses back to the capital.The heart of the court was a little more stable. With these more than [-] soldiers and horses, plus the nearly [-] garrisons in the capital, they could gather more than [-] soldiers and horses to guard the capital.

But people with a discerning eye could quickly see that this defeated army was panicked and terrified, obviously already terrified by the Tianhua army.With this army of soldiers who fear the enemy like a tiger, can they really hold the capital?
