This was Li Kuan's first reaction after seeing Chen Zhishen leading his men directly into the Zhou people's camp.
Although it can't be said that there is no one around him, there are only five or six hundred people left in the guard and the rear. They are basically spearmen who are of no use. Only their spears are in the trench.
There is a high chance that one of you will be stabbed inside.
At this time, the Mo Dao team was obviously unable to hold on due to their numerical disadvantage.
Li Kuan was just about to complain about why Chen Zhishen was so unreliable, but Zhou Ren Qingqi took the initiative to turn his horse's head, broke away from contact with the Mo Dao team, and drove away from a distance.
After hearing the news, the Han troops who came to support also rushed up from the rear. Gunfire continued. Although few of them were able to hit the enemy's Qingqi, they also forced the enemy's Qingqi to retreat farther away.
"Li Kuan, Chief of the Marching Army?" It was Xiao Shilian, the general of the Han Dynasty's cavalry, who led the team.
Of course Li Kuan recognized Xiao Shilian and hurriedly bowed his hands.
"Where is Chen Zhengdong?" Xiao Shilian asked directly.
Li Kuan couldn't help but look at the camp ahead where the sound of killing was loud.
Xiao Shilian immediately knew the expected answer. The war broke out suddenly and entered the most tense stage. How could Chen Zhishen, the commander-in-chief, sit still.
"Hold this place." Xiao Shilian ordered, "Yu Linqi, follow the chase!"
Xiao Shilian brought up the most elite Yulin Cavalry of the Han Dynasty. In the previous battle across the river to seize the beach, only a part of the Yulin Cavalry's Modao team followed the first batch of teams and rushed to the river beach, and they really started fighting around the barrier.
They played a vital role in the brutal defensive battle, but in the end, only the Mo Dao hands showed up. Of course, the Yulin Cavalry's more numerous light cavalry and armored cavalry also wanted to make contributions.
When Xiao Shilian was crossing Baigou, he went to Li Xinchen to get Yulin's five hundred light cavalry.
Although Li Xingchen knew very well what this guy wanted to do, he also knew that he could not stop him and could only make him be careful.
The Yulin Cavalry suddenly agreed. These light cavalry should be the most depressed team among the Yulin Cavalry. The Mo Daojie had already made gains in previous battles, and the armored cavalry had also faced off against the enemy's armored cavalry.
Not to mention the special operations brigade that Yulinqi relied on, it had been broken into pieces and sneaked into the enemy's rear, either to explore the terrain and other information, or to cooperate with the white robes to collect information on the enemy's troop strength, food and grass mobilization, and even to seize the opportunity at any time.
You can take action to intercept the enemy's grain and fodder convoy, etc.
The triumphant advance of the main force of the Han army naturally overshadowed the efforts made by many other soldiers on various fronts, but their names will not be erased from the military's merit book.
Most of the brothers Paoze who are also members of the Yulin Cavalry have made meritorious service, but since the Northern Expedition, the Qingqi of the Yulin Cavalry seem to have done nothing except running around on the battlefield and joining in the fun, so this time they are also very
positive.
"Ah?" Before Li Kuan could react, Xiao Shilian had already ridden away. Yu Linqi drew out his muskets one by one and followed Xiao Shilian.
Are you too unreliable?
Li Kuan suddenly complained fiercely in his heart. It would be fine for a General Zhengdong to directly enter the battle with his bodyguards. Why did the dignified Hussars General also run away with the cavalry? Then who will direct the battle? He is just a marching director.
, please!
However, Xiao Shilian didn't hear the surprised sound behind him at all. Instead of jumping directly into the frontal battlefield with his light cavalry, he took a circuitous route to the west and caught up with the Northern Zhou cavalry who wanted to flee.
With such elite Yulin Cavalry in hand, Xiao Shilian is not afraid even if he attacks more with less. The key is to keep as many Northern Zhou Cavalry here as possible.
More Han infantry advanced from both sides of Li Kuan and rushed into the Northern Zhou camp.
The sound of killing was everywhere, and in the darkness, no one knew how many Zhou troops were barely resisting the fierce attack of the Han army, buying time for the main force to retreat safely. Li Kuan could only stand in front of the artillery, watching the torches of the Han army soldiers.
Jumping in the distance.
There was the neighing of war horses on the west side. It was the Han cavalry that was chasing the Zhou cavalry. The number of the Zhou cavalry was not necessarily smaller than that of the Yulin cavalry, but they were almost completely wiped out by the Jia cavalry, and their camp was also destroyed.
After conquering, they almost had no intention of fighting. After a brief confrontation with the Han cavalry, they retreated decisively. If the Han cavalry hadn't carried weapons that could shoot from a distance, such as firecrackers, they probably wouldn't have been able to do anything to them.
Any damage.
In the camp ahead, gunshots are heard one after another. It is the musketeers who have been fighting individually at the beginning and are now moving forward in a neat line. Every time the muskets are fired, they will join with countless muskets to form a line of harvesting lives.
The barrage. The Mo Dao team and the Sword and Shield men cooperated with each other to rush in from various gaps in the camp. After a round of musketry was fired, they would immediately rush forward past the musketeers and kill those Zhou people who were still resisting.
, and form the next line of defense, and the musketeer can shoot again under the cover of the shield after reloading.
Inside and outside the barrier behind them, the Imperial Guards have also moved up one after another. They obviously want to get a share of the battle and cannot let the Tiger Wing Army steal all the limelight.
Even the armored cavalry was advancing slowly.
Just now, the Northern Zhou Qingqi were still fighting with the Han army's Modao team. It seemed that they might break through the Modao team's defense at any time, and even directly cut off the Han army's formation. But now the situation has changed instantly, and there are still many people to face.
Not as good as their own Han cavalry, the Zhou people were not interested in fighting. In other words, they were just trying to fight to the death.
Li Kuan, who was still worried about Xiao Shilian and Chen Zhishen's rashness just now, couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
I have to say that his sensitivity to the situation is still not as good as those of these two battle-hardened men. But the root cause is that Li Kuan himself does not believe that Yu Wenxian really escaped like this.
In the hearts of the civil and military personnel who once served in the Northern Zhou Dynasty, Yu Wenxian, as a figure like the God of War, still has a certain degree of prestige. Let Li Kuan lead an army by himself to fight against Yu Wenxian. He really does not have enough confidence.
.
But now, Yu Wenxian's image as a war god was finally shattered by the rumbling cannons of the Han Dynasty.
"All artillery, move forward!" Li Kuan decisively gave the order.
What he has to do at this time is to provide as much support as possible for Chen Zhishen and his group's attack from the front.
"Boom!" The archery tower in the camp ahead was violently blown down. With the help of the firelight, Li Kuan could see several black figures jumping hastily from the archery tower.
The green flags on the camp have also been replaced by the red dragon flag of the Han Dynasty. This giant beast that once opened its bloody mouth is now lying down obediently, waiting for the orders of its new master.
