Wanyan Aguda sat on the horse in a daze. Everything he saw in front of him made his mind buzzing and he was at a loss. There were explosions everywhere, black clouds rising into the sky, mud and sand falling, and scenes of flesh and blood flying everywhere.
It was as if he was suddenly in a nightmare. His mind could not comprehend what had happened for a while, and he could only stare in a daze with his mouth half open.
Not only him, but all the Jurchen soldiers were confused. They were completely unaware of what was happening in front of them and were so horrified that they were speechless. Many Jurchen soldiers thought that the scene in front of them was a divine punishment sent by the Immortal Heaven, a punishment of thunder falling from the sky.
They knelt down and kowtowed in a low voice with pale faces, praying and repenting in their mouths, hoping that the punishment of thunder would not fall on them.
As the commander of the heavy cavalry, Li Guoqiu was a member of the Iron Buddha in every charge. He took the lead in the previous charges, but this time he was more cautious and was in the middle of the team. It was said that he was in the middle of the team.
Better to issue orders, but in fact, he was not 100% sure that this charge would be successful. After all, the opponent has firearms, can the power of firearms be underestimated? Others may not care, but Li Guo
Qiu will definitely not care. He is a person who clearly knows the power of firearms. The reason why he strongly encouraged Wanyan Aguda to send Tiefutu to attack was because he wanted to annihilate the Luoyan Army as soon as possible and capture the man named Lin
He had already guessed that the identity of the man named Lin Jue was absolutely mysterious. He actually made a firearm. He had to get this person no matter what, at least he had to get his method of making firearms and gunpowder.
.
If the other party only has that kind of shotgun, there is still room for trouble. If the other party is allowed to continue, if other firearms appear, or more advanced firearms are produced, then everything will be too late. Others don’t know,
He, Li Guoqiu, knew what that meant. He had no ability to make firearms, so he could only snatch them from this man's hand. As long as Lin Jue died, the world would understand the power of firearms and the principles of their production.
The only one left is himself. This is the powerful power that he has been pursuing for ten years. This power can make him the master of this world, and he must not miss it.
It was out of awe of firearms and not knowing how advanced his opponent's firearms were that Li Guoqiu carefully chose to stay in the middle of the team this time. When the opponent's shotgun was fired, Li Guoqiu's
His heart skipped a beat. When the iron pagoda's armor was unscathed, he almost jumped up from his horse with joy. Although he was wearing heavy armor, he couldn't jump at all. His judgment was correct. As expected, firearms cannot move the iron pagoda.
Not at all. This means that the other party is finished.
However, when the opponent threw explosive objects and thunderous roars were heard from all directions, Li Guoqiu's blood ran cold. Of course he knew what it was. The opponent had already created such a thing, and the Iron Buddha Tower was the foundation.
He couldn't resist it. He knew at the first moment that this battle was unwinnable, so he quickly issued the order to retreat, and took the lead in turning his horse's head and retreating. Fortunately, the formation of four thousand people exceeded one hundred
At fifty paces, the opponent's grenade throw was only within fifty paces. Although the more than a thousand cavalrymen in front of Tiefutu were overturned, the following cavalry had not yet reached the range of the opponent's throw, so most of them were able to successfully turn around and escape the way they came.
Seeing Li Guochou leading some of the Tiefutu heavy cavalry to retreat back, Wanyan Aguda also woke up from a dream. Although he didn't know what kind of attack method the opponent used, he knew that he must make an immediate decision and withdraw his troops immediately.
Otherwise, any further attack would be tantamount to self-defeating
Seeking destruction.
"Big leader, please withdraw your troops immediately, withdraw your troops immediately." Li Guoqiu shouted at the top of his lungs towards Wanyan Agu.
"Retreat, retreat, retreat quickly!" Wanyan Aguda came to his senses completely and shouted loudly, waving his arms.
…
The war ended hastily and suddenly, like what happened in the house of a middle-aged man who was unable to cope with his efforts. The battle was fierce, but suddenly it ceased. Countless Jurchen soldiers fled in a hurry, just like the tide receding, leaving corpses everywhere.
.
It has to be said that the Jurchens' retreat was extremely decisive. They made the most correct decision right away. Both Wanyan Aguda and Li Guochou clearly understood that the opponent's attack methods were not something they could withstand.
If you still don't recognize the limelight and continue to attack, you may have to pay a heavier price, but you still won't be able to achieve the goal of annihilating your opponent.
The roaring and exploding powerful firearms were really shocking and terrifying. It was like thunder falling to the ground, leaving people stunned and frightened. Iron Buddha Temple couldn't resist it, so what else can be used to resist it? So?
Decisive withdrawal is actually the wisest choice. At least most of the troops and horses can be saved, and more than half of the Tiefutu heavy cavalry can be saved. And it is obviously impossible for the opponent to pursue it with all their strength, because once pursued, the Luoyan Army will lose the advantage of solid defense line
, it is impossible to use the defense line to make the enemy and ourselves clearly distinguishable and use firearms to kill people unscrupulously. Things that can explode when thrown into the crowd obviously hurt people without distinguishing between ourselves and the enemy, and are not suitable for use in melee. Although Wanyan Aguda gave the order
Retreat, but he is still very clear about this. If the opponent wants to take the opportunity to pursue and gain more benefits, General Wanyan Agu will immediately order a U-turn and counterattack, leading to a big melee.
The Luoyan Army obviously understood this, and they did not launch a large-scale pursuit. Only a few groups of cavalry rushed out of the circular formation, fired arrows for a while, and made symbolic gestures from a distance, then retreated.
When the sky darkened, the remaining Jurchen soldiers retreated to Chenliu County. After taking a breath, they conducted an inventory. This inventory was not important. Wanyan Agu smashed all the doors, windows, tables, and chairs of his residence to pieces with a mace.
Because today's losses were simply too great, so great that it was completely unacceptable for Wanyan Aguda. The 150,000 cavalrymen lost more than 50,000 casualties, and the infantry suffered tens of thousands of casualties. What makes Wanyan Aguda most distressed is that the Tiefutu cavalry was lost.
The 1,600 cavalry suffered the first complete defeat since establishing this heavy cavalry. And his Jurchen army finally suffered a blow. They successively defeated and annihilated hundreds of thousands of Zhou soldiers.
The horse, in the end, suffered a huge loss in front of the Luoyan Army, which only had tens of thousands of people. If this property had not been withdrawn in time, almost all the family wealth would have been lost.
Wanyan Agu was furious, and all the generals were pale and silent. Wanyan Agu cursed and cursed others, and finally targeted Lu Zhongtian's 50,000 troops who were cooperating in the battle. The battle lasted for a whole day.
, and the 50,000 Forbidden Army cavalry sent by Lu Zhongtian to fight together did not even see a shadow. This is a deception, a complete deception. After hearing what Yan Agu said, the Jurchen soldiers also found punching bags and scapegoats, and followed
They cursed endlessly. Some gritted their teeth and demanded that someone be sent to negotiate with Lu Zhongtian immediately to find out the reason. Moreover, Lu Zhongtian needed to be responsible for the failure of this battle, and Lu Zhongtian needed to bear the losses.
However, at the second watch, a piece of news came back to the Jurchen camp in Chenliu County. It was about the 50,000-strong Imperial Army led by Lu Zhongtian being captured by Luo Yan at Shili Changgan.
According to the report, it was learned that the 50,000 Forbidden Army cavalry led by Chen Bin planned to cut off the retreat of the Luoyan Army. They wanted to capture the Luoyan Army at Shili Changgan.
The army's camp burned all the food, grass, materials and equipment in their camp to help the frontal battlefield. They thought that the Luoyan Army's 100,000-strong army would be dispatched to participate in the Battle of Qingshui Creek, because there was no reason for them not to dispatch all of them.
The soldiers and horses went to fight the enemy who were several times their own. There were only a few thousand soldiers and horses left in the opponent's camp at most. But they miscalculated. They had just crossed the Bianhe River and headed north. When they arrived in the wilderness south of Shili Changgang, the opponent's camp was surrounded by three soldiers and horses.
Thousands of troops seemed to be waiting for them, giving them a head-on attack.
The person leading the soldiers and horses was Guo Kun, the young prince who proclaimed himself King of Bianliang. When he appeared on the battlefield, many of the Forbidden Army soldiers were already feeling guilty. Not to mention the fierceness of the opponent's combat firepower was jaw-dropping.
Chen Bin tried to charge with cavalry, but the opponent actually threw unknown firearms on the battlefield, triggering a violent explosion and causing heavy casualties to the Forbidden Army cavalry. After ultimately paying nearly 20,000 casualties, Chen Bin had no choice but to order the remaining troops.
Take advantage of the darkness and run away in despair.
After hearing the news, Wanyan Agu was silent for a long time and sighed. For today's battle, the opponent was obviously prepared and fully prepared. The opponent only dispatched 70,000 soldiers and horses to fight with him, leaving 30,000 soldiers.
The horses were prepared to prepare for Lu Zhongtian's sneak attack. They obviously expected this. And they dared to use these 70,000 soldiers and horses to fight with them with confidence. From the change of formation to the final choice of bombardment with the violent firearms, it was all calculated.
Okay. My brother-in-law has obviously planned the direction of today's battle, and I am just cooperating with him step by step and slipping into his trap.
…
The atmosphere in the Luoyan Army camp, which was backed by the terraced post, was jubilant. Guo Kun personally welcomed out of the camp to greet the triumphant victory of Lin Jue and others. The soldiers cheered and shouted, celebrating the victory unbridled.
At the second watch, the lights were brightly lit in the Chinese army tent under the Range Rover Tower. A group of generals filled the tent high and low, each with a happy face and an uncontrollable smile. Before the war, how worried about this war was,
How happy I feel after the victory at this moment. Before the war, many people had a pessimistic mentality and were even prepared to die in battle, so the victory at this moment makes people feel even more joyful and encouraging.
Everyone was discussing the situation of today's battle enthusiastically, happily describing the details of the battle. Everyone was frothing at the mouth, and their excitement was beyond words. When Lin Jue walked out of the inner tent, all the generals stood up.
Saluting and applauding, everyone's eyes were full of admiration and reverence. They all knew in their hearts that the Luoyan Army's victory today was no accident. It was Lin Jue's efforts to strictly enforce military discipline, supervise training, develop firearms, and design battle formations over the years.
As a result, although his request was questioned by many people, including the doubts and complaints of many generals present. During the boring and long-term hard training, many people had doubts. But today, they truly understood that before
Everything done is not in vain, and it is a guarantee of victory in this battle. All of this is the result of Mr. Lin's constant emphasis and persistence.
Lin Jue took a shower and changed into clean clothes and armor. He looked in high spirits. Facing the standing ovation from everyone, Lin Jue only nodded slightly, but his expression was a little serious.
"Everyone, please sit down." Lin Jue waved his hand.
Everyone sat down one after another and looked at Lin Jue with eager eyes. Lin Jue looked at Guo Kun and said, "Your Majesty, please say a few words first."
