Chapter 1177 The Rise of the Republic

The fifty-four cannons all sprayed iron sand bullets in dozens of breaths, and a "life penalty zone" of 300 steps wide was fired in front of the artillery position. The deadly iron sand flew around like the sickle of the god of death, and the subordinates of the three kings of Zhao screamed and were swept in rows. Even if some people were really favored by Changshengtian and were not hit by the dense iron sand like raindrops, their fate would not be much better. Because the sound of the cannons roaring at close range was really terrible, the war horses under their crotch were all frightened, and they ran around uncontrollably. The knights on the horse's back could not do anything except hugged the horse's neck tightly and did not let themselves fall down. They became the living target of the crossbowmen of the eighth general of the Republic's army rushing up from behind the artillery position!

Although the Khitan Iron Cavalry, who followed the female cavalry of Shunguo's Ministry, was not attacked by iron sand bombs, they did not dare to move forward any further.

The "demonic technique" of the Youzhou Army is more powerful than imagined! I don't know what it was going on, so I killed all the warriors of Shunguo's troops who had been in trouble for eight lifetimes. Isn't it a waste of death when rushing forward to it?

Just as these Khitan cavalry were scrambling their horses and trying to turn around, the iconic shouts of the Republican Army started again!

"Preserve the laws of nature, destroy the barbarians, divide the fields..."

It turned out that the eighth general's spearmen had already crossed the artillery position in four columns, and then formed a horizontal lineup while moving, and began to attack the Khitan cavalry who were a little silly because of the shelling.

Master Zhu, Monk Zhu Er and others are really awesome this time. A group of infantry carried long spears to charge against the armored cavalry!

They were actually forced to do so fiercely. Because Wu Jian died on the battlefield, they were all killed in battle. The general of the army was killed and failed to defeat the enemy. In the end, they took the initiative to withdraw from the battlefield and brought back few armored heads. Of course, they were judged as "small defeat", and they recorded a collective "small defeat". This is not a joke, but a major event that affects the future division of land. It must be offset by a collective "small success".

Otherwise, no matter how many A heads an individual obtains, he will not be able to obtain land and citizenship.

So now I have caught another opportunity, so of course I can't let it go. So when a group of spearmen saw that the Khitan cavalry refused to rush, they wouldn't bother them, go up by themselves!

Xiangwen Xiao Yaoshi, who was on the Flying Dragon Armor, saw a group of infantry rushing towards him with spears, and suddenly a feeling of unreality surged in his heart. The cavalry behind him had been shocked by the destruction of Shun Guo's girl Zhi. If they could use a value to indicate their morale, it would definitely be a negative value. Seeing a group of crazy spear soldiers, how could they have the courage to resist?

Even if you can resist the spearmen of Youzhou Army, what should I do if my big tube is put on another magic trick later?

Let’s take it away first... Saving your life is the most important thing!

Yaoshi Xiao just thought of turning in, and the sound of horse hooves behind him had already sounded. When he looked back, he found that the flying dragon armor under his command had turned around and left one after another.

"Is it worthy of being a great Khitan country so timid? It's so embarrassing!"

After cursing in his heart, Xiao Yaoshi turned around without hesitation and ran to his own front.

If you are embarrassed, just embarrass! When will men on the grassland be afraid of embarrassing? Saving their lives is the most important thing. Those spearmen from Youzhou Army look abnormal, what are they concerned about?

Boom boom boom boom...

After a few steps, Xiao Yaoshi ran away, the sound of cannons came from behind his ears. It turned out that the artillery that had just left the position (in Youzhou army, artillery was more precious than cannons, so he would rather lose the cannons than damage the artillery. Besides, the Liao people didn't know how to destroy the cannons). Seeing that the Liao people did not occupy their positions, they turned around and continued to fire the cannons.

Because the Republican army's artillery positions were laid on an unfinished seawall, the shells could be allowed to cross the heads of the infantry in front and land on the Liao army battle formation more than two miles away to continue to break the ice.

Seeing the shells falling down, the cavalry in front were repelled again. The Khitan dismounted cavalry, who had already been depressed, finally couldn't collapse and retreated in chaos. But not far behind them was the sea, but they were actually fighting on the back of the sea. And the closer they were to the rolling sea surface, the thinner the thickness of the ice layer. If they were trampled, they would not need to kill the Youzhou army and they would drown themselves.

Xiao Fengxian, who knew that he could not retreat and had no way out, was also anxious. This battle was fought well, but why did he collapse suddenly?

This is a battle that concerns the life and death of the Great Liao Kingdom!

Xiao Fengxian, who was anxious, sent people to Yelu Yanxi, who set up a formation outside the city of Lushun, and sent all his personal guards to stop the dismounted cavalry located in the center of the "Yizilong Snake Formation". He also slashed a group of soldiers who fled before the battle, and finally temporarily stabilized the front line.

However, Xiao Fengxian was able to block the retreating cavalry, but it was difficult for him to reorganize the formation for a while. In addition, the more than a thousand armored cavalry retreated in front were in a panic and directly hit the chaotic Khitan dismounted cavalry. Then he was blocked there, unable to advance, and there was no way to retreat.

The Republican Army's artillery shells fell down immediately, falling beside these Khitan armored cavalry. Each shell could knock down several Khitan warriors and stir up a cluster of water columns.

The frightened Khitan knights and dismounted cavalry all rushed towards the sea in panic, but they were blocked by Xiao Fengxian's personal soldiers. They had to squeeze into a group!

Just when they had nowhere to escape, the spearmen of the Republican Army had already arrived. Zuo Changyu, who had just taken over the eighth general, had indeed had a set. Seeing the effect of the bombardment of the iron sand bomb, he knew that the Khitan cavalry could not withstand it. So he did not hesitate and devoted all the eighteen captain spearmen. More than two thousand spearmen formed four horizontal formations, advancing in unison on the open ice surface, and followed by many swords, shields and crossbowmen and crossbowmen.

The spears in the first two rows of spearmen array had been laid flat at this time, with more than a thousand eight-meter-long spears stabbing towards the Khitan soldiers who were in chaos. At the same time, waves of iron lumps fell from the sky.

As far as the war reaches this point, let alone the Liao soldiers, the Republican Army can no longer withstand it!

Xiao Fengxian didn't give up, nor could he give up. He was tough and rushed to death! The forced Khitan soldiers were really unable to fight against the more than 2,000 spearmen who had already lined up, so he had to squeeze back desperately. As a result, the people were getting denser, and at least more than 10,000 people and more than 1,000 horses were all compressed on a very narrow ice surface.

And the ice layer under them was hit hard by at least a few hundred shells, which had been a hole long ago.

After all, ice is not steel. At this point, it can't stand the weight of so many people and so many horses.

Suddenly, a loud "crack" sound of the ice cracking sounded in people's ears. The sound was so terrifying, it was simply the sound of the door to hell when it opened.

Not only the Khitans, but also Republican soldiers like Zhu Da Monk and Zhu Er were frightened, and they even forgot about stabbing people with a spear.

The Khitans who were stabbed by them were even more miserable. They didn't even dare to move. They just looked down at their feet, for fear that the ice surface would break with a crack.

However, the artillery bombardment of the Republican artillery had not stopped yet, and a new round of volleys threw 54 iron lumps, all hitting the ice!

"Broken, broken..."

Everyone was shouting, including Zhu Da Monk and Zhu Er Monk, who were as scared as the Liao people. As for the current temperature, where can I live in the sea? No matter how good the water is, I will die. Besides, they are still wearing armor...

"Retreat! Retreat quickly!"

The order to retreat was conveyed in two ways: shouting and whistle. The spearmen of the Republican Army who were still aggressive just now immediately turned around and ran away, escaping faster than when they were chasing the Khitan cavalry just now!

When the Khitans saw them running away, they all let go of their bodies and ran away... They were chasing the spearmen of the Republican Army!

The defeated soldiers chased the winning soldiers, which was probably a strange story in the history of war.

I don’t know if it was the Republican artillery shells that finally smashed the ice surface, or the crowded Khitan soldiers running wildly and stomped on the ice surface. In short, just as the crowd was surging, the ice suddenly shattered after a loud "crack" sound.

This fragment was not a line, but a large piece. All the people standing on it were sinking. It was not just one person or two, but countless people. They were alive just now, but now they all sink together. They were like the American disaster film in later generations!

Everyone who witnessed this scene was stunned. It was better for those who stood on the shore, but the people who stood on the ice were scared to death.

It turns out that the ice under my feet is not reliable and will break... This is tofu!

Not only were the Khitans frightened, but even the officers and soldiers of the Republican Army, who were attacking the left wing of the Khitan Army, were stunned. They were also standing on the ice! They wouldn't fall down, right? They even forgot about the battle for a while, they all froze there, staring at the Khitan warriors on the opposite side, and no one dared to move.

Monk Zhu and his group ran away desperately, and even their formations dispersed. Many Liao soldiers ran faster than them and actually "chased" them, but they didn't fight. Instead, the two groups ran together, making it almost the same as the race. In this way, everyone ran to the Republican army's artillery position... When they ran to the beach, they were all exhausted. They didn't care about the fight and sat on the snow and gasped.

So the artillery soldiers of the Republican Army rushed out of the position and captured all the Khitan soldiers who rushed towards them. After the war, they captured as many as two or three thousand!

Later, for the ownership of these prisoners, Zuo Changyu and Luogang quarreled for two months, and even Ma Zheng didn't know what to do, so he had to repay Wu Haogu, and then gave everyone a happy method to record 2,000 prisoners of war in the merit book of the artillery and the eighth general...
