The rebel general Park Yongxun's face was so gloomy that he could almost shed tears. He never expected that the 30,000-strong army he sent out, his famous general Jin Jiajue, and led 7,000 cavalry as the main offensive force, would actually lose to a group of enemy infantry in a frontal battle.
In the end, Jin Jiajue, as a cavalry general, died under the opponent's thousand fine cavalry.
A thousand fine cavalry, just a thousand fine cavalry, broke up the position set up by Jin Jiajue, like a knife cutting tofu, easily cutting the remaining more than 20,000 Goryeo infantry in half. When Yun Yi took the lead and rushed through the Goryeo army's rear formation.
Leaving all the Korean rebels behind, he waved, and a knight next to him who had never really fought suddenly threw a long pole with all his strength.
Yun Yi took the pole and turned it around a few times, and a large cloud eagle flag came out of the air. It was dancing wildly in his hand and the Korean army left behind him turned around and saw that the enemy's flag had already been flown behind him.
Confidence in combat was instantly lost, and with the death of the general, the formation was completely gone, and they began to flee in all directions.
At this time, the power of the Eagle Wing formation appeared, and the Yun family's army of more than 10,000 people surrounded 20,000 Goryeo soldiers, and the repeating hand crossbows in their hands had become a nightmare in the hearts of the remaining Goryeo soldiers for two full years.
Tens of thousands of troops collapsed in an instant, either surrendering or dying.
At this time, Yunzheng moved the rear army forward, recalled Yun Yi, and began to plan for further combat.
The atmosphere on the tower was extremely bad. Everyone was silent. While General Pu Yongxun was waiting in suffocating silence, a sharp-eyed soldier of the general suddenly shouted: "General, look, the enemy is coming!"
When Pu Yongxun looked back anxiously, he saw a group of Yingyang Guards forming a neat queue and slowly approaching outside the north gate. Pu Yongxun made a rough estimate. There were two to three thousand enemy troops in this group, all wearing red uniforms.
Locked battle armor, a semicircular iron helmet with water, and a repeating hand crossbow in his hand
In addition to the repeating hand crossbows in their left hands, they also held a shining single-sided halberd in their right hands. Thousands of single-sided halberds gathered into a cold forest of death, reflecting the dazzling cold light under the setting sun, which almost made them mesmerized.
Pu Yongxun's eyes were confused. Pu Yongxun looked around. The generals, counselors and guards around him all looked solemn.
This group of Yingyang Guards was completely different from the Goryeo imperial army that Pu Yongxun was familiar with in both clothing and equipment. Only when he saw the Yunying flag fluttering in the wind below the city did he know that this was obviously the most elite North Korean army in China.
Xinjiang army
"Great Wei Northern Frontier Army!"
Pu Yongxun roared angrily: "Damn it, this is the Northern Frontier Army of the Wei Dynasty, which can't even defeat the Liao Dynasty! These guys have powerful things in their hands. The power just now was already obvious, and their range is also
The bows and arrows must far exceed ours... Damn it, fire up the crossbow, fire up the crossbow immediately, never let these damn guys get close to the city wall, otherwise we will be in big trouble!"
"Yes! General!"
A general took the order and went
Soon, the sound of huge bed crossbow springs being pulled could be heard from the top of the Mirror City. The only eight bed crossbows on the top of the city poured their weapons and giant crossbow arrows down, forming a tight formation at a distance of two to three hundred steps.
barrage, no blind spots for shooting
If the thunder cannon artillerymen of the Northern Frontier Army of the Wei Dynasty were to fire their artillery under such a barrage, they would definitely die!
However, the Korean giant crossbows did not cause any damage to the Yingyang guards outside the city, because the crossbow team marching in neat formation was still four to five hundred steps away. However, the first wave of Korean crossbows had just stopped.
, Ying Yangwei suddenly started sprinting, advancing about three hundred steps at an extremely fast speed, and then stopped suddenly.
At this time, the Yingyang Guards were still at least 150 steps away from the city wall, and had already entered the effective shooting range of the repeating crossbows. However, the Korean bows and arrows could not reach that far. At the officer's command, the two thousand soldiers of the first guard
The serial crossbowmen quickly formed a shooting formation, with one hundred and five hundred people in each of the four rows in front and behind. However, what is strange is that the fourth row of serial crossbowmen did not carry a musket, but only held a palm mine in their hands.
"shooting!"
The officer gave an order and the sound of intensive crossbow strings rang out. Silver light flashed in front of the Yingyang Guards. The first row of crossbow arrows had roared and shot at the city top. The battlements at the city head were shot into pieces, causing bricks to fly everywhere and smoke to fill the air.
Dozens of Koreans were hit and screamed and fell in a pool of blood. Two unlucky ones fell directly from the top of the city more than ten meters high. They probably died.
The Koreans who were waiting at the top of the city immediately bent down and huddled their bodies behind the battlements as much as possible.
Ying Yangwei opened fire at this distance, and the Korean archers had no power to fight back. Only the ten crossbows could threaten Ying Yangwei. Unfortunately, the ten crossbows were reloading the crossbows at this moment, and there was no way to do so.
To fight back, compared with the new cannons brought by Yunzheng, the Thor Cannon, these ten crossbows have a fatal weakness, that is, the process of loading the crossbows is too complicated and takes a long time.
unbearable
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh..."
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh..."
Ying Yangwei fired another two rows of crossbow arrows at the top of the city. All the Korean soldiers on the city had their bodies lowered, and no one dared to take the lead again.
Pu Yongxun, who was hiding in the archery tower, couldn't help wiping the cold sweat from his forehead. Fortunately, he had a strong city to rely on. If the two armies encountered each other in the wild, even if his men and horses were several times as many as the enemy, he would not even be able to fight with his two wheels.
Can't stop shooting
Just when Park Yongxun was overjoyed, he suddenly discovered that the enemy's fourth row of crossbowmen was pressing forward. This group of people was particularly special. The uniforms they wore were white, which stood out among the bright red group.
"Eh? What do these Wei people want to do?" Pu Yongxun had no time to think about how the Northern Xinjiang Army appeared here at the moment. He exclaimed and said in shock: "The Wei people have neither siege vehicles nor ladders, so they sent this
What's the use of hundreds of infantrymen approaching the city wall? Is it possible that they can fly directly to the top of the city? Are these Wei people out of their minds?"
The generals, counselors and soldiers behind Pu Yongxun also looked at each other, confused.
On the top of the city, seeing enemy troops approaching the city wall, many Goryeo soldiers who had experienced war instinctively stood up and wanted to fire arrows to fight back. But at this moment, the sound of crossbow strings sounded again, and dozens of Goryeo soldiers immediately responded.
The remaining Korean soldiers who fell to the ground in a pool of blood quickly shrank their bodies under the battlements, no longer daring to poke their heads easily.
Anyway, the ones rushing over were just a few hundred infantrymen, so what threat could they pose?
These five hundred Yingyang Guards were Yunzheng's personal soldiers in white. They suddenly started to accelerate when they were less than fifty steps away from the city wall. After another twenty steps, they were about to rush to the edge of the moat.
, the white-clothed guards raised their right or left arms in unison, grasped the palm thunder in their hands, and threw it fiercely towards the top of the city.
According to the training standards of the Yingyang Guards, a palm thunder bombing distance of fifty steps is considered excellent and thirty steps is qualified. These five hundred white-clothed guards are the elite of the Yingyang Guards. They are less than twenty steps away from the city wall.
It is not difficult to throw the palm thunder onto the top of the city two or three feet high.
Before the Koreans on the city could react, more than 400 black-smoking palm mines had already landed on the city.
Time seemed to freeze for a few seconds. The next moment, dazzling red lights suddenly appeared on the top of the city. Accompanied by a deafening huge explosion and the flash of black iron beads, rubble flew and smoke filled the city.
General Pu Yongxun, who was hiding in the arrow tower, suddenly felt the floor beneath his feet begin to shake violently. He lost his footing and fell to the ground.
Two soldiers rushed forward to help Pu Yongxun up.
Pu Yongxun patted the dust on his clothes in embarrassment, and when he looked through the archery hole at the city head, his face turned ashen. He saw smoke and dust filling the city head of the north gate, and violent explosions sounded one after another, accompanied by clouds of clouds.
With the blooming red light and the deafening roar, countless severed limbs were flying in the air, and the ten bed crossbows were also blown into the air, and when they fell again, they had turned into broken copper and iron all over the ground...
…
The five hundred white-clothed guards under the city wall still refused to give up. It was not until they had thrown away all ten palm mines they carried that they turned around and retreated with some lingering thoughts.
In less than two minutes, more than 4,000 palm thunders exploded intensively on the narrow tower of the north gate. Can you imagine how terrifying the power must have been? The miniature iron caltrops flying all over the city were simply not visible on the top of the city.
If there is any blind spot, almost none of the Korean soldiers guarding the city will survive. Those who are lucky will only be injured and fall to the ground, and those who are unlucky will be killed directly!
Suddenly, the sound of flying crossbow arrows stopped, and the sound of explosions also stopped.
The north wind in late autumn blew across the city, finally clearing away the smoke and dust in the sky. Pu Yongxun finally saw the situation on the city clearly, but he would rather believe that this was just a nightmare. He did not want to believe that all this was
it is true!
Almost all of the thousand Goryeo soldiers who had been guarding the city alive just now fell into a pool of blood. All they could see were bloody and mutilated limbs. Several Goryeo soldiers were cut into two pieces by the waist and were in agony.
Wailing, there were several Korean soldiers who had half of their heads cut off by fragments, and were twitching in a pool of blood...
Only a few dozen Goryeo soldiers survived
These dozens of lucky Goryeo soldiers, all with traces of smoke and fire all over their bodies, all had their eyes widened, and the expressions in their eyes were dull. Park Yongxun only hoped that this was a nightmare, but they experienced this personally.
The terrible nightmare, or this terrible nightmare is still continuing, because they are still surrounded by the wailing sounds of their companions before they die, and the horrific scenes that can be seen everywhere...
Before Park Yongxun and the Korean soldiers woke up from their terrible nightmare, Yingyangwei began to formally attack the city.
Yunzheng, who had been sitting in charge of the central army, gave an order, and the eight thunder cannons were dragged under the north gate. After more than a dozen deafening bangs, the relatively strong gate of Mirror City was hit by the last two solid iron bullets.
It exploded into pieces all over the sky. Two hundred infantrymen from the baggage brigade quickly moved forward with ladders and built a temporary bridge over the moat.
It happened suddenly, and Park Yongxun didn't even have time to mobilize the troops distributed in the other three gates and the city garrison to the north gate!
Amidst the shouts of landslides and tsunamis, the Yingyang Guards officers swarmed in with shouts of victory, just like a raging flood rushing into Mirror City from the north gate of Mirror City.
Pu Yongxun didn't care much, and ran away in panic with a group of trusted generals and guards. He was also a self-proclaimed general. In addition to the more than 100,000 troops in Jingcheng, there were still more than 100,000 subordinates. When they were gathered together, they were still a big force.
As long as the power of the Wei Dynasty is used properly and does not fight against such perverted troops as the Northern Frontier Army of the Wei Dynasty, it is unknown whether we can make a comeback.
