The adjusted trebuchet accurately delivered dozens of explosive packets into the Zhou army's position. The gray-clothed troops arrayed in the field could not find a bunker to hide in! After a continuous loud noise, the gray-clothed troops
The formation suddenly collapsed!
In fact, the power of explosive packs is not as amazing as it seems. The collapse of the Gray Army was entirely caused by psychological fear. A simple explosive pack does not have the power to destroy a solid bunker like in movies and TV shows, but it contains a lot of iron.
A small explosive pack can blow people's souls away.
The entire gray-clothed army was in chaos. The men and horses behind and on the flanks were frightened to death by the loud noise, while the center of the gray-coated army suffered what seemed to be a brutal blow. Although they were killed after two rounds of ejection,
There were not many gray-coated soldiers, but the scene was shocking enough. They had never seen such a powerful firearm. The gray-coated soldiers thought it was a divine punishment borrowed from heaven by the Han army!
The muffled thunder exploded in the military formation, just like the power of gods and the roar of tigers!
Everyone in the Gray Army from top to bottom lost the courage to fight. In their view, these loud noises were unstoppable divine punishment, thunder and lightning descended by the gods!
Liu Ling waved his hand. There was no need to waste any more explosive packs. Although these items had been produced in small quantities in Jiangzhou in the past three months, they were consumables after all. The army could only carry a limited quantity when going on an expedition, so every one was used less.
He noticed two people beside him who had their mouths wide open and were surprised that they could swallow a whole ostrich egg. One was Zhou Ping and the other was Zheng Chao. On the faces of these two people with completely different identities, there was exactly the same shock.
What Zhou Ping was thinking about at this time was, if he had not surrendered, would he still be alive if these things exploded on the top of Jiezhou City? After being shocked, he felt a little more lucky. Zheng Chao thought in his heart
What's more, if he had not agreed to Liu Ling's surrender, but had sent his troops for a decisive battle, how many rounds of missiles could Zuo Zhenwei, which he had managed for many years, be able to withstand?
In their opinion, such a powerful weapon does not exist in this world at all. They dare not think that such a terrifying weapon was created by Liu Ling, and they can only tell themselves desperately that this is a gift from God to the Han Dynasty.
The army's great killer weapon. But the more he thought about it, the stronger the fear of Liu Ling became in his heart. The two people looked at Liu Ling with unconcealed fear and respect in their eyes.
"General Zheng, how powerful is my firearm?"
Liu Ling turned his head slightly, sat on the chair and asked Zheng Chao who was standing next to him.
Zheng Chao wiped the sweat from his forehead, bowed and said: "Your Majesty is a genius, unpredictable, and the general will respect you."
Liu Ling smiled and said: "I am asking you about the power of this firearm. Why are you so flattering?"
Zheng Chao solemnly said: "If there was no prince, how could there be such a powerful firearm? I am glad that I did not act foolishly and block the prince's divine power that day."
Liu Ling smiled and asked Zhou Ping: "General Zhou, what do you think?"
"The power of destroying heaven and earth makes my subordinates terrified!"
Liu Ling waved his hand and said: "It's not as powerful as you said. It's a pity that the craftsmanship needs to be improved. It's acceptable in field battles, but it's slightly insufficient in siege. When I have time, I have to think about how to increase the power and try to use it in
It can also have such power in destroying the enemy's morale when attacking a city."
Just as Liu Lingyun was talking to Zheng Chao and Zhou Ping calmly, five thousand Han troops had already started to slowly retreat behind the dozens of riprap trucks.
Hua Ling regrouped the cavalry and formed a sharp attack formation.
"The great man is mighty! My king is mighty!"
He shouted loudly, put down his visor first, and rode out.
"My king is mighty!"
The three thousand light cavalry from the divine war camp shouted in unison, and the sound shook the heavens. The three thousand fine cavalry formed a sharp and heavy armor-piercing cone, and attacked the gray-clothed army with overwhelming force. At this time, the gray-clothed army had already
There was chaos, and the huge explosions scared the horses and caused them to run around, causing people to flip over. There was no way to stop an effective defense!
Soon, the distance was shortened to 150 steps again, but this time, the gray-clothed army, which had lost a large number of archers, only shot sporadic arrows, which could not stop the rapid approach of the Han cavalry.
One hundred steps, fifty steps, thirty steps!
"Throw the gun!"
Hua Ling shouted loudly!
Hundreds of gunshots were thrown at the chaotic formation of the Gray Army, and the Gray Army running back and forth were nailed to the ground one after another. Not to mention the ordinary soldiers of the Gray Army, even the generals
They were all frightened out of their wits by the huge power of the explosive packs, and no one organized a defense at all! After hundreds of shots were fired, a gap was created in the gray army's position!
Hua Ling raised his hand and brought it down hard. The cavalry behind him lowered their horses in uniform uniformly! Like a layer of steel jungle stabbing down diagonally, with Hua Ling as the front, they suddenly cut into the gray forest.
The great formation of the Yi army!
puff!
A gray-coated soldier was pierced by Hua Ling's spear. The elastic pole bent and then flicked upwards. The grey-coated soldier whose chest was pierced was ejected. Hua Ling lowered his spear again.
, and immediately another soldier of the Gray Army was impaled to death on a horse. The battle formation composed of 100,000 troops was so thick that under normal circumstances it would be enough to wipe out all the men and horses under Hua Ling's command. But now,
However, Han Qi was like cutting tofu with a knife, easily reaching half of the depth of the formation!
There are at least three dead souls of grey-coated soldiers hanging under the sword of each Han cavalry. The three-foot-long sword can easily stab, split and cut off gray-robed soldiers without armor protection!
The sporadic resistance could not stop the Han cavalry from advancing. It was not until half of the 100,000-strong army battle formation was destroyed that the speed of the Han cavalry gradually slowed down.
"Change the knife!"
Hua Ling shouted loudly, and the soldiers behind him shouted in unison, conveying the general's order. The Han cavalry either re-hung their horses on the victory hook, or used the expensive horses as a
He used his spear and threw it out to nail the gray-clothed soldiers to the ground alive. Soon, the Han cavalry who broke into the enemy's formation were all equipped with sharp horizontal knives.
Liu Ling, who was watching the battle, pointed at the enemy formation in front and said: "Blow the trumpet, the whole army attacks!"
The horn sounded, and more than 10,000 Han army infantry began to march in neat steps, pressing forward heavily.
Hua Ling cut off the head of a gray-clothed general with a sword. The head spun in mid-air and fell to the ground. Then it was stepped on by a charging horse. With a pop, the head was like a
It was like a crushed watermelon, red and white, splashing all over the floor. The eyeballs were squeezed out of the eye sockets, and they looked like clods when covered with dust.
Before the general's headless corpse fell to the ground, Hua Ling had already slashed another gray-clothed soldier diagonally into two halves. The half of the corpse with the head attached slowly fell to the ground, and his chest was cut open.
Open, the internal organs couldn't wait to get out of the cavity. The bloody mud-like internal organs fell on the ground, and were soon trampled like mud by war horses and people. They were on the four hooves of war horses, people's shoes, and even clothes.
All covered with broken pieces of internal organs.
This was a killing, an absolute killing. Even though the gray-clothed army had lost its will to fight, even though it was dozens of times more powerful than the Han cavalry, it still could not stop the opponent's offensive. The defeated gray-clothed army ran around like headless chickens.
, it was impossible to tell the difference between north, south, east, and west. Miserable howls came one after another, and the wounded soldiers who had lost their limbs or half their heads but were still strong and alive were crawling and screaming.
Even a ghost from Abi Hell would be frightened by such a bloody scene, right?
Hua Ling's armor had long been soaked, and the blood flowed from his body to the horse, and then gathered together like a small river and flowed to the ground. His hands were slippery with the blood, so he tore off a piece of his robe and held the knife tightly.
He was tied tightly to his right hand. At this time, many of the soldiers around him had died in battle, but those who were still alive were all full of fighting spirit!
puff!
A sharpened white wax pole came diagonally and pierced the stomach of a Han soldier. The soldier roared, cut off the white wax pole with a knife, and then slashed the gray-clothed soldier's neck open with one knife.
Blood spurted out like a waterfall from the incised artery. The soldier tried to block it with his hands, but he could not stop the surging blood.
Another simple spear thrust over and knocked the Han cavalry off the horse. Several gray-clothed soldiers gathered around and stabbed like crazy with the simple weapons in their hands, once, twice, three times.
Hit, dozens of hits, and soon, the Han soldiers surrounded by them turned into a puddle of mud. Another small group of Han cavalry came galloping over, slashing with bloody swords. These gray-clothed soldiers
The soldier was soon fell into a pool of blood.
With the support of dozens of soldiers, Hua Ling still rushed to the front of the team. The arrows continued, and the cavalry behind them followed in a clear direction and killed all the way. Finally, the thick darkness in front of her eyes suddenly dispersed, and Hua Ling felt that there was a flash of light in front of her eyes.
When the light came on, he realized that he had already penetrated the enemy formation! The formation of one hundred thousand troops was so thick that he was able to forcefully punch through a hole with three thousand cavalry!
Hua Ling took the lead to rush out of the enemy's formation, and the feeling of being a servant on the war horse was also wiped away. He jumped a few times with joy, and then suddenly stood up!
The Han army that gathered after breaking through the enemy's formation only lost a few hundred riders!
Hua Ling casually wiped the blood on his face, pointed at the torn enemy formation with a horizontal knife and shouted loudly: "Do you dare to follow me and fight through it again!"
"kill!"
The Han cavalry, who looked like they had been splashed with blood, turned around and killed them again under the leadership of Hua Ling!
At this time, the infantry of the Han army had maintained their formation, hitting the gray-clothed army's bloated and chaotic body like heavy punches one after another. There were more than a dozen square formations, with a thousand people in each team.
Like a dozen heavy blows, the Gray Army's position was completely shattered into pieces!
The gray-clothed army was finished, and the army of one hundred thousand was wiped out in an instant.
When Hua Ling led the cavalry to fight back again, it seemed extremely easy, because not a single gray-coated soldier dared to raise their weapons to resist. Gray-coated soldiers kneeling down to beg for mercy were everywhere, while hundreds or even thousands of people spontaneously organized to resist.
, were quickly killed. The gray-clothed soldiers who begged for mercy kowtow like crazy, and the blood puddles on the ground were splashed with blood when they hit their foreheads.
The huge gray army never recovered. Even Xu Shengzhi was killed by the rebels. It was not known whether he was killed by the Han army or his own men. In this battle, more than 50,000 enemies were killed and 36,000 were captured.
, except for the 10,000-strong reserve force of the Gray Army, which turned around and ran away when things went wrong, and still managed to retain a fully-organized army, almost all the battalions were crippled. Originally, Xu Shengzhi had his 6,000-strong German army.
Protector could rush out and escape, but he wanted to take this most elite force to go around and defeat the Han infantry from the flank, but he was flanked by the Han infantry and Hua Ling's cavalry and killed them all.
During the inventory of the battlefield, the body of Xu Shengzhi was found after identification by the prisoners. This great thief with great reputation in the Zhou Dynasty ended his historical mission in a hurry and desolately.
The 10,000 gray-coated troops who fled back to Puzhou joined the defenders in Puzhou City and managed to form a team of 30,000 people to defend the city. However, the Shadow Guards assassinated Xu Shengzhi's eldest son, Xu Fulang, and his second son.
Xu Fuzeng was in complete chaos after that. The Shadow Guards who sneaked into Puzhou with the defeated soldiers took the opportunity to set fire to King Ende's mansion, and then spread rumors that the two kings were killed for the inheritance. The Shadow Guards took advantage of the power of supporting the two men to fight
They were so angry that they set the city gate on fire. They assassinated more than a dozen generals of the Gray Army. The Gray Army lost its commander and became even more chaotic.
Under Zheng Chao's guidance, the three thousand cavalrymen of the Han army rushed directly into Puzhou City. The three thousand cavalrymen actually broke through Puzhou, which was guarded by more than 30,000 people. This shows that the gray army was in chaos.
What does it look like.
In just seven days, hundreds of thousands of gray-clad troops were gone like sand blown by the wind, never to return. (To be continued)
