The horses' hooves roared and the ground trembled. The cavalry was so fast. It was just a group of black spots, but now it has come closer. A sparse arrow rain was shot from the city wall, but it was only a drop in the bucket. The Turkic cavalry rushed to the front, quickly dismounted, and each time
The five cavalrymen left one person as a stake, while the other four picked up their bows, arrows, swords and guns and swarmed forward, attacking the gap in the city wall. Using their hands and feet, they climbed to the top of the ruins while shouting.
Arrows were fired from the city walls on both sides again, and many Turkic soldiers were shot and fell to the ground, but more people were safe under the cover of shields. When they rushed to the middle of the ruins, they heard the sound of bowstrings above, and a burst of
The rain of arrows came over, and another group of people fell down. Some Turkic soldiers took off the short bows on their backs, stretched the bows and filled the strings with arrows, and fired back. The arrows were nailed to the long sign like a summer rainstorm.
With a tin roof.
There was a "pop" sound, the muskets were being fired, and the battlefield was filled with smoke. The power of the muskets was obviously stronger than the crossbows, but they still could not stop the Turks who were not afraid of death. Those who rushed in front were all elite soldiers with big muscles and round waists.
They were armed with round iron shields and scimitars, and wore chainmail. Even if they were hit by one or two arrows, they would be fine. They rushed to the front of the long card formation, completely ignoring the long spears sticking out of the thorns, and jumped on them with a loud shout.
Go up and forcefully use your own body to break out of the way of blood.
Hand-to-hand combat is like this. The level of martial arts is no longer so important. It relies on tenacity, strong body, and teamwork. The long knife pierced the chest, the mace smashed the skull, and the soldiers from the two camps struggled together.
It was no longer possible to distinguish the front lines. If the weapons fell out of hands, they would hit them with stones. If the stones fell, they would hit them with fists and bite them with their teeth. They were beaten until their heads and faces were bloody and they could no longer distinguish each other. Reinforcements from the rear team were still coming.
Charge in this meat grinder-like battlefield.
The Liangzhou Army fought very hard. In the past, the Turkic Army only sent some non-lineage troops with average combat effectiveness to consume the strength of the Liangzhou people. But this time it was very different. The soldiers who came were not the ordinary infantry who were forcibly recruited, but all the troops.
The Turkic cavalry and the Turkic cavalry were both powerful in horse and foot combat, with accurate arrows and powerful swords. The Liangzhou army suffered a great loss. On average, three men could defeat one enemy.
While the battle was going on, suddenly there was a sound of gongs in the city. This was Ming Jin's order to withdraw his troops. The military order fell like a mountain. No matter what the battle situation was, they had to retreat. The Liangzhou army roared and retreated like a tide. The suddenly victorious Turkic soldiers
They were so surprised that they were stunned. After a while, someone woke up and shouted loudly. Countless Turkic soldiers brandished scimitars and rushed through the ruins, rushing into the city of Liangzhou that they had dreamed of occupying.
The sound of killing was loud and the momentum was like a rainbow. Thousands of Turkic soldiers poured into Liangzhou City. Under the dim winter sun, countless spears, scimitars, and iron shields shone brightly. They were all of Turkic style.
Fur hats and Liangzhou defenders on the walls on both sides of the gap kept firing arrows, but they couldn't stop the iron flow at all. The four cannons were even more powerless. They could hit them from a distance, but the enemies under their noses couldn't see it.
It turns out that it can't be fired because the muzzle cannot be adjusted to that downward shooting angle.
In the distance, the Turkic wolf rider Tubu Tachibana looked at this scene with some satisfaction. The city of Liangzhou was broken. Liangzhou, which had been fought for two months, was broken in one attack after he took action. It can be seen that those wastes before
His incompetence, if he had used the Wolf Cavalry earlier, wouldn't it have been settled long ago?
Of course, in addition to the bravery of the wolf cavalry, the wise decision-making of the Great Khan also played a very important role. The Liangzhou people suddenly got some cannons, which was just a flashback. Sure enough, the Great Khan ordered them to kill them with a carbine, and all of a sudden
The Liangzhou people were stunned. After resisting for a quarter of an hour, they could no longer hold on.
The officers beside Tobu Tachibana were also extremely excited. They were the ones who had the credit for breaking into Liangzhou. The promotion and rewards were right in front of them. Even their horses felt the joy of their masters and kept pawing their hooves.
It seemed that he wanted to rush over and fight.
Toburi Tachibana stroked the mane of his beloved horse and soothed its emotions. He knew that the war horse was eager to fight and smell the smell of blood, but it was not the time yet. He had to confirm that the troops had established a foothold in the city before going into battle in person.
The flag bearer next to Tubu Tachibana pointed the black military flag straight at the gap in Liangzhou City. Countless soldiers rushed past the military flag, and the iron currents converged in the same direction. The gun at the top of Liangzhou City sounded again, but
The soldiers were unmoved and did not even blink. The generals had already said that this was just a Han Chinese artillery fire. The sound was very loud. In fact, it could not kill a few people. This was indeed the case. Against living forces, this kind of fire was very effective.
The smoothbore cannon is really weak.

The first group of Turkic soldiers who rushed into the city chased and fought fiercely along the streets. As the saying goes, it is better to chase the poor bandits with the remaining brave men. The Turkic men waved their scimitars and roared at the top of their lungs. The sound shook the earth and the earth. Those Liangzhou soldiers had already been frightened.
Losing courage, he abandoned his helmet and ran faster than a rabbit. The warriors chased him all the way, but no one noticed that the doors and windows of the pavements on both sides of the road were sealed with stones.
Suddenly, the wolf riders were surprised to find that the Liangzhou soldiers who were running away like rabbits no longer ran forward, but stopped and gathered together. A huge artillery was placed in the middle of the street, with its black muzzle aimed at the wolf riders.
, those Liangzhou people were still shouting arrogantly, as if they had a backbone.
The Turkic Wolf Rider Tenth Commander Ulkasi who was running at the front spat at the ground with disdain. The Han people did not dare to fight one-on-one with knives, so they just used cowardly weapons. Who are the Wolf Riders? That's a profuse sweat.
For the Praetorian Guards, what does a cannon mean? It just has a larger caliber and heavier shells. Is it possible that it can kill so many of us with one cannon?
The footsteps of the Turkic soldiers did not stop at all, they were still moving forward bravely, each one fighting to be the first, not to be outdone. The whole street was filled with soldiers, shoulder to shoulder, the sound of the friction of armor leaves and locks mixed with the chaotic footsteps, the sound was terrifying, and they ran more and more.
As they got closer, they were about to rush forward, but strange smiles appeared on the faces of those Liangzhou soldiers. It didn't look like the expressions of the massacred people before they died, but more like the smiles of the executioners before execution.
A devilish smile, this was Ulkasey's last impression.
"Let go!" With a loud roar, the cannon roared. Ulkasey only felt a red light flashing in front of his eyes, and his ears couldn't hear anything. His body flew back like a fallen leaf. It was such a strong storm.
It was more powerful than the tornado he saw when shepherding sheep on the grassland when he was a child. When he regained consciousness, he realized that he was already lying dozens of steps away from where he had just stood. There were blood stains and stumps everywhere on the ground. His comrades were seven
Scattered around him, Ulkasey's chainmail was torn, and there were several transparent holes on his chest. He knew that he was about to die, but he didn't have the slightest regret. As a sweaty man,
Soldiers have long been prepared to sacrifice, not to mention that there are seventy-two beautiful women to enjoy when the soul enters heaven.
The Turkic soldiers on the street were so dense that this cannon was not wasted at all. Thousands of iron beads of different sizes contained in a fine barbed wire flew out of the cannon and scattered, forming a scorching metal storm that hit the ground like a cannon.
As if cut by the god of death's sickle, half of the Turkic soldiers on the street fell down in an instant.
But the Turkic Wolf Riders' footsteps were only blocked for a moment. The officers said that it would take a long time for the Han people's weapons to be reloaded. This gap was the opportunity to win. The Wolf Riders' eyes were red with blood, and they roared and pounced one by one.
Coming here, one can’t help but marvel at the spirit of not risking one’s life.
But any spirit is in vain in front of steel. The one that fired just now was the Dragon Power Cannon. While General Long Wei was reloading, the Tiger Power Cannon was pushed out, and there was another storm, sweeping across thousands of troops like a strong wind sweeping away fallen leaves.
Hundreds of wolf riders were knocked down in an instant, some were dead or injured.
The fighting spirit of the Wolf Riders was indeed extraordinary. The officers were all rushing in front, and all of them were dead at this time, but the soldiers still stepped forward bravely. This time they saw clearly that the Han people only had two cannons in total.
The distance is so close, as long as you cross this death distance, you will win!
The warriors were running wildly, they were racing against death, but unfortunately it was useless no matter how fast they ran, because the opponent not only had cannons, but also dense muskets waiting for them.
"Let go!" The cold voice sounded again. The soldiers of the Liangzhou Army calmly aimed at the approaching enemy and pulled the trigger. The matchlock guns emitted clouds of gunpowder smoke, and dozens of lead shot out, followed by this row of soldiers.
Quickly turning around, the second row of musketeers came forward and continued shooting.
The Wolf Riders are heroes, and the Liangzhou Army is not a coward. They are all good men who crawled out from the dead. Who is afraid of whom? The mountains of corpses and seas of blood are right in front of them. They don't even blink, they are still in an orderly manner.
Loading gunpowder and lead, blowing on the match rope to prevent it from going out, he looked calm and composed.
At the same time, shadowy figures appeared on the rooftops on both sides of the street, holding muskets and crossbows and shooting at the wolf riders. They were armed civilians. Although they were not good at martial arts, they were able to achieve great results by being condescending.
The wolf riders faced attacks from three sides, but still showed no fear. The remaining soldiers held up iron shields and dragged their wounded bodies forward, crawling, even if they died, they would die on the road to charge.
At the critical moment, another group of wolf riders rushed in from the gap in the city wall, filling the streets again in an instant. They bent their bows and fired, and raised their swords and guns to kill forward. People in the Xiliang army kept falling after being hit by arrows, but the gap
It was quickly filled, and the soldiers were as steady as a rock, motionless, and still lined up in three rows to fire their muskets.
As for why they don’t use crossbows but muskets, there is also a point. Ordinary Turkic infantry can be suppressed with Zhuge Liannu, but these wolf cavalry are elite troops. The chain armor is also covered with a breastplate forged from a whole piece of iron sheet, which is powerful.
If they are too small, they can't be penetrated at all. These guys who look like bears can still move normally even if they are hit by one or two arrows. To deal with them, you have to use muskets with strong penetrating power. No matter how thick the armor is, one shot will penetrate it.
But after all, the firepower of muskets was not as intensive as that of cannons. The wolf riders held up iron shields and rushed forward regardless of casualties, while the Liangzhou Army artillerymen were still busy loading cannonballs...
At the remote northwest gate of Liangzhou, the city gate quietly opened, and the soldiers from the Liangzhou cavalry camp who had been dormant for many days rushed out of the city gate with their weapons in their hands, heading towards the retreat of the Turks...
