Even if it is covered with heavy iron armor, a war horse and a human body, it cannot compare to the mast.
The knights fell to the ground one after another.
Homo Chenrui gritted his teeth, his heart bleeding.
And the artillery is still roaring.
More than twenty artillery pieces, firing at such a close range, was a complete massacre, a long-planned massacre against the arrogant armored cavalry of the Northern Zhou Dynasty!
The musketeers have even stopped firing. Perhaps they also understand that there is no need to add icing on the cake at this time.
The remaining armored knights had already reacted and wanted to flee.
But it's too late!
The heavy armored soldiers of the Han army and the soldiers of the Han army pushing shields and gate-carrying swords have come out from behind the artillery position and gradually encircled them to form an encirclement. In other words, they have delineated the hunting range and allowed the artillery to roam freely.
Raging.
"It's really strange to put bayonets on artillery!" At this time, on the hillside, Yin Sengshou couldn't help but sigh.
In the end, the armored cavalry did not run away. After the remaining armored cavalry realized that this was a long-planned trap, they no longer turned their horses' heads, but continued to attack in the direction of the artillery. Although the power of the artillery was very strong, it was
Armored cavalrymen are also keenly aware that it takes a long time to reload the artillery every time it is fired.
If they are fast enough and if they are not afraid of sacrifice, then they can completely break into the artillery position before the next round of artillery fire.
It's a pity that this premise is that there are still many armored knights.
However, their turn back just now had already cost most of the armored cavalry their lives, and the remaining few were nothing more than living targets in the wilderness.
But these armored knights still pushed their horses forward tenaciously, even though they knew that this was a road of death or life.
The musketeers couldn't sit still anymore and pulled the trigger.
However, bullets still cannot threaten armored cavalry in the end.
The thing that can threaten the armored cavalry is still the dark artillery in front.
"put!"
The artillery roared, and this time not all the artillery fired at the same time, only a few artillery in the middle roared.
The solid cannonball hit the armored knight hard, like a meteor shower falling.
The knights were hit by cannonballs one after another, or were directly torn into several pieces by the cannonballs, or were hit and flew far away.
After this round of shells, no armored knight could stand.
The musketeers all breathed a sigh of relief. If the armored cavalry really rushed in front of them, it would be a disaster for them who only had one musket in their hands. However, evil people need to be punished by evil people, and they were not the ones to deal with the armored cavalry in the first place.
Naturally, there is no need for them to fight for their strengths. Now that the Jiaqi have been dealt with, they can help the Modao team deal with the Northern Zhou Qingqi.
It is not an easy task to use infantry to resist light cavalry, even if you are holding a sword that can kill horses. The casualties on both sides can even reach one to one. If there were not heavy armor in front to resist the Northern Zhou cavalry,
In the initial attack, Modao Team alone may not be able to stop the Northern Zhou Qingqi.
Now some of the Northern Zhou light cavalry who barely managed to break through the double blockade of the heavy armored soldiers and the Mo Dao team and came towards this direction were once again exposed to the artillery fire of the Han army.
What awaits them will be another massacre.
Just like how artillery massacred armored cavalry just now.
The command flag of the Chinese army was waving, and the Han army soldiers who had been gradually encircling them also stopped, turned their formation again, and moved towards the direction of the Northern Zhou infantry formation.
The current Northern Zhou infantry formation can hardly be called a complete military formation anymore.
The armored cavalry and light cavalry of the Han army rushed through the formation, and the large group of infantry that followed were like an overwhelming wave, lapping on the rocks, but what was broken was not the wave, but the rocks.
Without the cover of light cavalry and the support of armored cavalry, these Northern Zhou infantry had little fighting spirit to resist the surging Han army.
The Han army's armored cavalry easily knocked away their shields, as if they were in uninhabited territory; the Han army's light cavalry relied on their numerical superiority to calmly strangle the few remaining cavalry on both sides of the formation responsible for covering, and then used fire blunderbuss to hold up the infantry at close range.
Shooting; the large groups of infantry of the Han army are even more menacing. In terms of the sharp weapons in their hands, the strong armor on their bodies, and their combat capabilities, most of them are strong men, and some are from the Northern Zhou Dynasty.
There is no comparison between the soldiers and the most elite imperial guards of the Han Dynasty.
Hou Mochen Rui gradually retreated under the escort of his personal cavalry.
He was very smart and left a hundred cavalry for himself, which was the last resort to save his life.
When he saw that both the armored cavalry and the light cavalry were defeated one after another, and even none of the armored cavalry could escape, he already knew it.
This was originally a horse racing battle between Tian Ji.
Unfortunately, it was obvious that Li Ping was aware of his purpose from the beginning. His intention was to use armored cavalry to destroy the Han army's musketeers, use light cavalry to destroy the Han army's cavalry, and finally use infantry to cover them up, but Li Ping completely failed
On the other hand, they would rather use the flesh and blood of the Mo Dao team and heavy armored soldiers to block the Northern Zhou's light cavalry, and use musketeers to lure the Northern Zhou's armored cavalry to the vicinity of their own central army to create opportunities for artillery, rather than use the Han army's
The armored cavalry and light cavalry were transferred back.
The final result was that the "mounted horse" and "middle horse" armies of the Northern Zhou Dynasty were completely annihilated. Although the Han army also paid a heavy price, it successfully penetrated the entire Northern Zhou defense line. When the Han army's armored cavalry stepped on
When he entered the Northern Zhou Dynasty's infantry, the battle had actually been decided.
Hou Mochen Rui has realized where he went wrong. He still underestimated the combat effectiveness of the Han Army Heavy Armored Soldiers and Modao Team, which he regarded as infantry. He did not expect that they would have such strong abilities and fighting will.
, was actually able to block the Northern Zhou cavalry's assault bit by bit with his flesh and blood body.
Otherwise, when the artillery and the Northern Zhou armored cavalry were confronting each other, the Northern Zhou light cavalry would have already outflanked the Han army's artillery, completely breaking the backbone of the Han army!
How many trump cards does the Han army have?
What I thought was "mounting, middle and dismounting" was not the case with the Han army.
Looking at the Han army's infantry and cavalry that kept charging forward, Hou Mo and Chen Rui felt a deep sense of powerlessness. The Han army did not have the obvious advantage of cavalry like the Northern Zhou army, but it also had infantry who were just making up the numbers.
The obvious shortcoming is that each of their troops is very powerful. Even if the weak defeat the strong, it is not impossible.
This is not Tian Ji's horse racing at all, but a crushing one.
How likely it is that the Northern Zhou Dynasty can continue this year, Hou Mo and Chen Rui don't know.
But what he knew clearly was that if he were defeated like this, Hanoi would no longer be owned by the Northern Zhou Dynasty.
Even if I am asking for forgiveness from His Majesty, I must first inform His Majesty of this terrible news.
"Ming Jin, withdraw the troops!" Hou Mochen Rui ordered decisively.
Although it's a bit late, it's better than sending all the troops here.
