Chapter one hundred and eighty fifth dead end
Although the spear formation composed of hundreds of rebels was not enough to block the attack of the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry.
However, hundreds of spear heads that emit cold light can cause considerable casualties to the cavalry.
Therefore, Zhao Yun, the commander of the cavalry regiment who rushed in the front, did not blindly crash into a spear formation that could stab himself into a bloody hole.
Under the gaze of the lower body behind him, Zhao Yun skillfully put away his saber and pulled out the short-barrel musket for cavalry.
Light the fuse and pull the trigger without hesitation at the rebel spear formation that was getting closer and closer to him.
"Bang..." A crisp gunshot sounded on the battlefield. After dozens of steps, the rebel commander who was thrusting a spear with guilt and fear was sought after, and fell directly into a corpse.
After shooting the lead bullet that had been loaded in the chamber, Zhao Yun quickly put away the musket.
Then, a two and a half feet long shot was drawn from another backpack on the horse's back. Under the huge inertia of the cavalry charge, he waved his arms and threw them out.
Because this series of actions developed too quickly, the cavalry subordinates who threw the gun into the rebel army with a whistling sound, and directly stabbed the two rebel commanders into a gourd. The subsequent cavalry subordinates reacted.
So, the crackling sound of musket shooting continued to sound behind you like firecrackers.
Zhao Yun, who had already replaced his saber in his hand, saw with his own eyes that in the dense long spear array blocking in front of him, there were constant hot shots hit by lead bullets, and he fell to the ground and turned into a corpse.
In the blink of an eye, the dense spear array became sparse, and it could even be said to be loopholes everywhere.
When gunfires kept ringing, guns that made a slight whistling sound began to appear above the battlefield.
After crossing Zhao Yun's head, he drew beautiful arcs in the air, he stabbed steadily into the rebel spear formation.
One thousand lead bullets, one thousand guns are thrown. Although it cannot reach the point where the bullet bites meat, the gun will see blood.
However, there is no problem in causing destructive blows to hundreds of hot-for-selling people in front of you.
Therefore, when more than a thousand iron-armored cavalry rushed to the rebels, the long spear formation that Zhou Yuhong had high expectations had turned into corpses everywhere.
A few rebel commanders were sought after, and under the threat of death at such a close distance, the last bit of courage to fight was gone. They threw down their weapons, knelt on the battlefield full of corpses, and surrendered to the whistling Tiger and Leopard Cavalry.
Zhao Yun ignored these rebels who knelt on their backs and surrendered.
After waving the sabre in his hand, he directly led his subordinates to avoid the surrendered soldiers, and rushed towards the rebel positions that had been in chaos.
At the same time, thousands of soldiers were fighting fiercely on the front battlefield, and they also discovered abnormal movements from the rear of the rebels.
Only two thousand rebel attacking troops were left. Subconsciously stopped attacking and looked behind him.
A sneer appeared on Wei Zheng's face on the Tiger and Leopard Army's position.
As for Wang Feng beside him, his face full of expectations was covered by fanaticism. He stared at Wei Zheng with a pair of hot eyes, and waited for Wei Zheng's orders.
Wei Zheng did not hesitate and decisively ordered: "The soldiers of the cavalry regiment arrived... Commander Wang immediately led the soldiers to launch a counterattack against the rebel attacking troops, cooperated with the cavalry regiment to surround and eliminate the rebels."
"Yes, general..." Wang Feng, who had a fanatical look, said loudly.
Then, like a tiger going down the mountain, he shouted loudly to his subordinates who continued to shoot forward.
"Soldiers, it's time to counterattack... Bring grenades and muskets, rushed out of the position with me, attacked the rebels, and destroyed them. If you are close, you will use grenades to blow me up, and if you are far away, you will use muskets to fire me. You must not let a rebel out..."
"kill……"
More than a thousand musketeers, like a thousand wild horses that broke free, quickly crossed the earth wall and rushed out of the battlefield that was already covered by white smoke.
At this time, the figures of two thousand rebels, who were only more than seventy steps away from the position, finally appeared clearly in everyone's sight. At the same time, the two thousand rebels also saw more than one thousand musketeers.
The enemy launches a counterattack in front, and the enemy attacks the rear. If it is an ordinary general, he will definitely lead his subordinates to retreat and reinforce his rear to avoid being cut off from his retreat.
However, the rebel deputy general who led the team was very exceptional because he came with a mortal attitude.
More importantly, when he saw the Tiger and Leopard Army musketeers launching a counterattack, he suddenly discovered an opportunity to reverse the entire battlefield.
The Tiger and Leopard Army musketeers gave up their positions and launched a counterattack on themselves. If they do not retreat but advance, they will fight with the Tiger and Leopard Army musketeers. Not only can they eliminate a thousand musketeers through close combat. More importantly, once they and the musketeers are killed, the Tiger and Leopard Army cavalry from the rear will have some concerns and dare not charge at will.
Otherwise, they would have killed themselves, but their musketeers.
So the rebel deputy general with a serious expression quickly made a decision and spoke kindly to his subordinates who were also frightened and uneasy.
"Brothers, we are the official cavalry behind us. Now we are retreating, and there is only a dead end. If you want to survive, you will continue to attack with me and fight with the official musketeers. Only in this way can we have a glimmer of hope of survival."
"Brothers, continue to attack with me... and fight for a way out..."
"The rebels do not retreat but advance..." Faced with this unexpected situation, Wang Feng quickly reacted after only a brief shock.
He shouted loudly to his subordinates who were also filing their mouths beside him: "Murderers, shoot, shoot at the rebels immediately, and destroy them..."
As soon as the order was issued, gunshots like a bean-like explosion began to sound beside Wang Feng.
The musketeer, who had not heard the order, quickly reacted after hearing the gunshots.
Listen to his charge, he picked up the firearm, aimed at the target, and pulled the trigger...
The gunshots sounded, and the rebels who had just plucked up the courage to continue attacking, instantly fell down hundreds of corpses.
As the gunfire continued, more and more corpses fell down. On the short charge, there were almost a whole layer of corpses of rebels in various postures, or injuries.
After losing thousands of people in a short period of time, the two thousand rebels finally advanced less than thirty steps away from the Tiger and Leopard Army musketeers. It seemed that in the blink of an eye, he could rush into the opponent's musket formation and cut the big knife in his hand towards the opponent's neck.
Just as a glimmer of hope gradually appeared on the faces of the remnants of rebels, another picture that filled them with confusion appeared in front of them.
Facing himself at a distance, more than a thousand tiger and leopard armed musketeers actually stopped shooting and placed the musket on the ground...
Could it be that these tiger and leopard troops are planning to surrender... or do they have any more powerful weapons...
Just as the rebels were thinking about this question, the Musketeers' next actions had already told them the answer.
More than a thousand musketeers were very skilled in taking out a wooden handle grenade from the backpack.
Then, a fire note was also ignited by them...
After lit the gunpowder leads stretched out from the wooden handle of the grenade with a fire sniff, he waved his arm and threw the grenade with white smoke in his hand.
More than a thousand grenades, with the sound of wind and howling, drew arcs in the air and quickly hit the rebels' location.
Just when thousands of rebels were still in confusion, more than a thousand grenades had landed one after another. And under the eyes of shock and despair, an explosion suddenly occurred...
A dense explosion sounded, and balls of fireballs were like mushrooms springing after the rain, followed by the rebels in the air.
When the last explosion ended, the entire battlefield seemed to be frozen on the spot and became quiet instantly.
The rebels in the attack were stunned by this weapon they had never seen before. The Tiger and Leopard Army Musketeers wanted to see how great the results could be achieved by the explosion of more than a thousand grenades at the same time...
A gust of wind blew, and the smoke that enveloped the explosion area was quickly blew down.
At this time, the tragic scene in the explosion area was like hell, showing it to everyone on both sides of the enemy and us.
In less than ten seconds of explosion, at least five hundred rebels were directly scared to death by a thousand grenades.
More importantly, among the five hundred scared rebels, there were less than two hundred people who successfully left a complete body.
Because the grenades thrown by the Tiger and Leopard Army were too dense, almost every two grenades killed a rebel. This led to many rebels who were scared to death, and were directly torn to pieces by the air waves and grenade fragments...
Faced with the tragic scene that had never been seen before, the glimmer of hope had just risen on the rebels' faces, and for a short time, they were covered by fear and despair from the heart. Even the rebels who had been through the battlefield were no exception.
Looking at the ordinary hell-like battlefield in front of him, Nan Nan said directly to himself: "The Tiger and Leopard Army is not human, they are devils... Such a powerful murder weapon can only be created by the devil..."
Then, he directly ordered with fear and fear on his face, "Retreat, retreat immediately... We would rather be killed by the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry than be blown into pieces by this devil weapon..."
Hundreds of rebels fled backwards like frightened rabbits without looking back without looking back.
Seeing this, a confident sneer quickly appeared on Wang Feng's face. He ordered to his subordinates who were also looking at each other, "Soldiers, the rebels can't hold on, continue attacking with me and destroy them..."
"Kill..." A thousand musketeers picked up the muskets, followed Wang Feng, and chased the rebels. While chasing, they loaded the muskets in their hands, shot forward, and killed the fleeing rebels.
At this moment, the battle that took place directly behind the rebels also showed a one-sided trend. More than a thousand cavalrymen, every time they launched a round of attacks forward, they could cause a bloody rain on the rebel positions.
