Chapter 129 The first battle (2)
Qin Boqiong is the most powerful general under Yu Wan. No one except Yu Wan himself is absolutely sure to defeat him.
But such a cruel person failed to get much advantage from Li Laiheng. The two rode their horses and galloped their swords and maces, and they still had no choice but to win and lose in the battle for fifty or sixty rounds.
Not only did Qin Boqiong secretly startled, but Li Laiheng was even more shocked. ‘I have been on the battlefield for several years, and there are more than a hundred dead souls under the knife. This is the first time I have encountered such a strong enemy!’
"Have fun! Brother Li is careful!"
Qin Boqiong became more and more brave as he fought. He slapped his horse sideways and avoided the other party's sharp knife and shouted loudly. He raised his maces and smashed them straight towards Li Laiheng's head!
The latter quickly took Mo Dao back and met him. With a "clang" sound, Li Laiheng was shocked and the dark horse under his seat was also frightened. Li Laiheng tried his best to use Mo Dao's ultimate skill before barely fighting back to the draw again.
Li Laiheng was not only a brave general of the Shun Army, but also a powerful royal relative. Although the head general was Liu Zongmin, he did not dare to disobey Li Laiheng at all, and he did not dare to let him make any mistakes.
"Don't be crazy, General Liu Ruhou is here!"
Liu Zongmin was snatching the crowd first. As soon as he finished speaking, the mount pulled out his hooves, and the slashing sword in his hand pointed directly at Qin Boqiong.
Xu Hu smiled and immediately stepped forward, taking Liu Zongmin straight, "Blushing, your opponent is my Master Xu Hu!"
"How dare you be rude!"
The battle between Qin and Li was still continuing, and Xu Hu and Liu Zongdi started a new melee. For a moment, four horses galloped between the two armies, and swords and axes flew into Mars, which made the soldiers on both sides shout and cheer.
"Red-faced slaughter, your swordsmanship is pretty good. Have you ever worked as a fire-headed army before? The posture of chopping vegetables is very standard?"
"Your red face, look at your tongue is dark and yellow and your strength is not strong enough. Is your kidneys not very good? Why don't you stop the troops for the time being and go to the pharmacy to get some wolfberry and tiger whip to replenish it?"
Liu Zongmin was no match for Xu Hu, and this guy was irresistible and aggressive. After twenty or thirty rounds, Liu Zongmin was defeated and defeated.
"Little bastard, see what you want!"
Liu Zongmin swung past Xu Hu with a false move, and hurriedly returned to the camp with sweat on his head.
Xu Hu followed closely to the enemy camp, "Brothers, follow me!"
The two armies confronted each other before the battle. The single fight between the main generals was very encouraging. Xu Hu defeated the enemy general in a blink of an eye. The imperial guard camp under his command naturally became even more heroic, and they all rushed towards the enemy like a fierce bull.
Faced with the Ming army's charge, the Shun Army was not panicked at all. Under Liu Zongmin's command, the shield player was first in front, followed by the musketeer and the crossbow player.
In just half a cup of tea, the peasant army formed an extremely dense firepower network, and the Imperial Guard lost two or three hundred cavalry before they could kill the enemy camp.
Under Xu Hu's training, the Imperial Guard Battalion had a very high level of combat skills, and the soldiers of the entire army were mainly heavy weapons, which was an important offensive method for the Yu family army to charge and rush into battle.
But the Shun Army was not inferior at all. Not only did they have the advantage in numbers, but they were also experienced in cooperation. Even though Qin Boqiong led the Longwei Camp to support him, he failed to get a little advantage. After several sprints and confrontations, both sides lost hundreds of people.
Yu Wan on the top of the city couldn't help but frown. Long Wei and the Second Imperial Guard Battalion were already the two most capable troops under him, but he killed one thousand enemies and suffered 800 damage. If he continued to consume it head-on, his family's wealth would have to be completely lost.
"Catch the army!"
As the sound of gold sounded on the city, the two generals of Qin Xu, who were in high spirits, had to personally urge the army to return to the city. Within half a quarter of an hour, the Ming army retreated to the city one after another.
Needless to say, Liu Zongmin also led his army to rush up, but when he arrived at the city gate, he was stunned.
The city gate opposite was wide open, dust was flying, horse hooves were waving, and they kept shouting and killing. Although the city was full of enemy troops, they were not resisted at all. They all looked at them expressionlessly.
Liu Zongmin was afraid that the Ming army would be ambushed, so he pondered for a long time and had to give up chasing and led a team to join Li Laiheng's army.
Li Laiheng was about to urge the army to support him, but he didn't expect Liu Zongmin ran back without a shot.
After asking about the situation, Li Laiheng was angry and had nowhere to go. After all, if he had been, he would not dare to rashly break into the city. Even though the Ming army was very likely to be bluffing, with Yuan Zongdi's previous lessons, they couldn't help but be cautious.
———
The wolf smoke and feather in Jiangxia City are naturally an illusion created by Yu Wan. He is playing the trick of the empty city plan. It is better to take a gamble if he can't stop the opponent's strong attack.
Although he won the bet, Zhao Xunchang and Pei Yingying were still shocked and sweated. You must know that there were only a few hundred muskets here.
Moreover, Hong Fu, who was entrusted to the Tan family's father and son, had no equipment to defend the city except for thousands of rusty feather arrows, and even the wood and stone were prepared overnight last night. If the Shun Army took advantage of the situation and rear-end, the city would undoubtedly be destroyed.
Not to mention others, even Yu Wan himself was worried. The risk of spying on military information this time was too great, but finally, he had a rough understanding of Li Laiheng's combat style, which provided great help for the next preparation.
Just as the city gate was closed, the sound of cannons suddenly broke out in the Shun Army formation, and dozens of shells dragged their long tails to Jiangxia City. In an instant, the sun and the moon changed their colors, and the sky and the earth trembled!
The shelling of the peasant army finally began!
“Are you ready?”
"Don't worry, Shuai Yu, you've done everything according to your instructions!"
Looking at the battlefield where artillery fire was everywhere, Zhao Xunchang suddenly showed a mysterious smile.
Chapter completed!
