Among all armies, the strongest combat effectiveness must be the direct troops surrounding the commander-in-chief.
The Liangzhou army around Li Chengqian was like this, and the dead soldiers around Zhao Youlin were like this.
The same is true for the Angsa Army.
The direct troops around Edward are basically veterans of many battles.
They are proficient in the use of firearms and have superb shooting skills.
In addition, they are more proficient in close combat and have no fear of any enemy.
The team that originally pursued Kamachin into the valley was their branch.
At that time, even Li Chengqian had to admit that these Angsa people were powerful in battle.
After Pat led Edward's 20,000 direct descendants to join the battlefield, the battle situation immediately changed.
Although these direct troops of Edward are not large in number, they are like the magic needle that fixes the sea.
Under their fire one after another.
The Western Turkic troops rushing from the opposite side were like wheat fields hit by a storm, falling one after another.
At this moment, Zhao Youlin was among the charging team.
Looking at the soldiers in front of him, falling in front of him one after another, Zhao Youlin's eyes turned red.
He kept shouting at the people around him: "Are you all fools? Spread out, spread out and fight!"
But what if we spread out?
Isn't it still within the enemy's fire range?
In just a few moments, the Western Turks' casualties reached a very terrifying figure.
And this is enough to show the difference between Western Turks and Unsa.
This gap cannot be made up by relying on outstanding generals and bravery of soldiers without fear of death.
In the final analysis, it is still what Li Chengqian said.
In the face of absolute technology, everything is useless.
Naturally, Li Chengqian's side also discovered the changes on the front line.
At the beginning, he thought that after Zhao Youlin and his men rushed into the enemy formation, the overall situation would be decided.
But who would have thought that Edward still has such an ace force in his hands?
Watching Zhao Youlin and the others shoot at each other's guns He looked like he was persevering hard.
Li Chengqian also knew that he could not wait any longer.
"Kamachin listens!"
"exist!"
"I order you to lead your troops, break into the enemy's formation from the rear, and compress the enemy's formation!"
"As you command!"
"Hu Yanzheng listens to the order!"
"exist!"
"I order you to lead your troops and follow Kamachin. You have only one goal. Break into the enemy's formation and find the enemy commander!"
"As you command!"
Wait until the two of them come out of the battle.
Li Chengqian also set his sights on his generals.
"Now the moment of decisive battle has arrived."
"At this time, I don't want any accidents to happen."
"And you have seen the current situation. The Western Turks simply cannot hold on for long when facing the Angsa Army."
"So next, we must forcefully take over the battlefield!"
"In this battle, everyone will fight together, and no one will be left behind."
He said directly to Liu Qi and Chen Fukuan: "And the order I give you two is to kill all the enemies within your sight and destroy everything you can destroy."
After hearing this, both Liu Qi and Chen Fukuan did not hesitate and acted on the spot.
Then the two men led all the troops except the artillery and moved closer to the enemy's formation.
At the same time, Li Chengqian also gave orders to the artillery again.
"There will be three rounds of shelling next."
"Don't be too crazy in every round, and don't be too late in every round!"
After giving the order, Li Chengqian also waved the flag down fiercely and shouted: "Let it go!"
boom!
A uniform explosion suddenly sounded.
Then you can see flaming cannonballs rising into the sky.
At this moment, it passed over the heads of his own soldiers and fell into the enemy's formation.
This is Li Chengqian paving the way for them.
After all, a firearms war should look like a firearms war.
Since we have such a sharp weapon, why should we let it idle? ???
"Load! Release!"
boom!
"Load again! Release again!"
boom!
A total of three rounds of artillery fire fell on the Ansa Army's position.
It is true that the Western Turks seemed powerless in the face of Unsa's guns.
But facing the guns of the Tang Dynasty, Ansa was also helpless.
As the saying goes, the big fish eats the small fish. The current situation is that the Angsa army is crushing the Western Turkic army, but the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty can crush the Angsa army.
After three rounds of shelling, the Ansa army in the field was already in chaos.
It was at this time that Kamachin arrived first.
This guy also followed Li Chengqian's order and directly asked the sergeants to disperse, desperately compressing the Ansa Army's defense line.
But now Edward's attention was all on the battlefield ahead, so much so that he couldn't even care about the flanking attack from behind.
This is not because he wants to give up the rear army, but because he has no other choice.
After all, he had already fought against these people who raided his own rear army before.
The fact is also before his eyes. With the current strength of the Angsa Army, he simply cannot compete with the opponent.
Instead of doing this, it is better to seize the time to defeat the enemy forces in front of you, and then assemble superior forces to deal with the enemies in the rear at any time.
And it can't be said that his idea is wrong.
After all, Western Turks are still in the cold weapon period.
Even though there are many of them, even though their fighting spirit is high at this moment.
But this is not enough to make up for the gap in weapons.
And this is not difficult to see from their experiences.
Even if they resorted to suicidal tactics, they Still at a disadvantage.
In his opinion, as long as his rear army can hold on for a while, he can defeat the enemy in front of him, thus providing everyone with a safe way to retreat.
But what he didn't know was that what he was thinking now was all what Li Chengqian had expected.
He knew that the other party would not mobilize all their troops to deal with him.
Therefore, he dared to send all his troops into battle, knowing that the enemy was outnumbered and we were outnumbered.
At this moment, on the battlefield.
Because of Kamachin's suppression, Hu Yanzheng and the others do not need to worry about the opponent's firearms causing too much damage to their own side.
Therefore, he completely let go of his hands and feet and led a group of soldiers straight into the military formation.
The battlefield here is different from Zhao Youlin's.
Zhao Youlin faced the enemy's elite.
At the same time, he didn't have anyone to help him block the hole of his gun, so it was reasonable that he couldn't break through the enemy's formation.
But there are no elites here, and there is also Kamachin to help Hu Yanzheng block the gun.
For a moment, Hu Yanzheng and the others felt as if they were in a deserted place.
The entire team was like a sharp arrow rushing straight towards the place where the enemy was most densely populated.
But Hu Yanzheng did his part and rushed to the forefront of the battle formation.
As he waved the mace in his hand left and right, he smashed the heads of countless Ansa soldiers in an instant.
As mentioned earlier, because the Angsa army entered the age of firearms early, the psychological endurance of those Angsa soldiers was simply not as good as that of the Western Turkic soldiers.
When they saw this scene, some people couldn't help but vomited on the spot.
But where is this?
battlefield.
It can be said that every second here is fought for with life.
vomit?
Isn’t that just seeking death?
Some Western Turkic cavalry also seized this opportunity and chopped off the heads of countless people in an instant...
