The swordsmen and shieldmen had already followed up from both sides, covering the musketeers' flanks so that they had no worries.
Therefore, the musketeers were able to line up in the most typical three-row array to engage the enemy, firing row after row. It was like the scythe of the god of death was harvesting lives wantonly.
It's a pity that Murong Fuyun's reaction was very quick. After realizing that what he did was just killing the Han army, he quickly ordered the troops to retreat.
The Tuyuhun soldiers and horses were enveloped in the fan of death laid out by the Han musketeers, so they were naturally panicked. At this moment, when they heard the sound of Ming Jin withdrawing his troops, they all turned around and ran back as if they had been granted amnesty.
If you don't run now, the bullets will fall on you later if you don't have enough ammunition!
It's just that Tuyuhun retreated like this. Naturally, he could no longer advance and retreat as well as the Han army. Those behind pushed against those in front, and there was a sudden chaos, and bullets would come out from behind from time to time, which made Tuyuhun's soldiers even more nervous.
of panic.
The soldiers of the Han army were not in a hurry to chase down the defeated troops. The enemy's cavalry was not far away and was watching eagerly. Once they really picked up the speed and charged forward, Xue Wang's cavalry might not be able to stop them.
Naturally, it is better to be cautious.
However, on the frontal front, Du Zha did not actually have direct contact with the enemy. He just watched these guys being shot at indiscriminately by muskets and then started to run away in a mess. Although Du Zha was helpless, he was not afraid of ten thousand, just in case. If he hadn't just been
If the formation had changed, they might have already rushed into Tuyuhun's barrier at this time, but who would have thought at that time that Tuyuhun's soldiers and horses would be so vulnerable? Wouldn't it be embarrassing if they directly attacked and scattered the Han army's queue?
?
However, Du Zha's reaction was relatively quick. After realizing that the Tuyuhun army could no longer pose a threat to his flanks, he led the Han army soldiers towards the gap in front. Just now, many Tuyuhun soldiers rushed out of the gap.
He directly attacked the Han army's formation, but was forced back by Du Zha with muskets.
Of course, the main reason is that the Tuyuhun soldiers on both wings have been defeated. There are only a few of them. The Tuyuhun team whose main purpose is to pick up bargains naturally has no need to fight alone. They don't even need Mo Daoshou to go into battle. At this time, they have already taken the initiative.
retreated behind the barrier.
On both sides of the gap, the Tuyuhun crossbowmen were desperately firing arrows. At this time, they saw the Han army soldiers rushing up with shields, and they immediately panicked. Fortunately, these guys should also be the elite of the Tuyuhun army. After a brief panic, they immediately
He drew out his short blade and jumped out of the gap, intending to take the initiative to engage the enemy. And more sword, shield, and spearmen also rushed to the gap. Obviously, compared with the crossbowmen who were shooting arrows in front, these people were more powerful.
On the contrary, he was timid because of the sudden setback in his previous attack, and for a while he didn't dare to rush forward directly.
"Well done!" Du Zha laughed loudly, threw away his shield, and pulled out a horizontal sword with his other hand. The two horizontal swords started to dance like a tiger.
Most of the Tuyuhun soldiers who were killed were wearing light armor and holding short soldiers. A direct slash with a horizontal sword would inevitably break the skin and flesh. Who could stop this guy from charging forward like this?
The commander was killing fiercely, and the soldiers naturally formed a morale formation. Each one screamed and rushed upward, facing the blades of the Tuyuhun soldiers one by one with horizontal knives. The same was true of short blades against short blades. Naturally, they were able to differentiate themselves.
The sharp and heavy sword was smashed down, and some of the blades even broke directly. Then the Han soldiers swung their swords and slashed again. Where was there any room to parry?
When the Tuyuhun crossbowmen saw that the situation was far from being as easy to deal with as they imagined, they immediately became confused and turned around to start running for their lives. However, how could the Han soldiers give them this chance? A famous soldier simply
Like their leader, they all threw away their shields, swung their swords and rushed forward, catching up with the Tuyuhun soldiers and slashing them down with one strike.
Sometimes defeating the enemy is just that simple.
"Kill!" Du Zha rushed into the gap and chopped down a Tuyuhun soldier who wanted to jump into the gap in front of him. However, when he looked inside, the enemy's sword, shield and spearmen were already there.
He screamed and rushed forward, trembling immediately.
What is fortunate at this time is that the enemy's crossbowmen are probably not there...
But even so, Du Zha didn't think he could withstand it.
He subconsciously turned over and rolled down the remaining half of the earth wall of the gap. Almost at the same time, the spear directly pierced the place where Du Zha had just stood, but it missed the mark. Du Zha couldn't help but
I breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, I am very agile, otherwise I would have had several bloody holes in my body by this time.
It is not shameful to die in battle, but because he charged too hard and was hit by the enemy, Du Zha felt that this would probably become a negative example in the future.
From now on, the chief registrars and the gentlemen of the college will talk about their embarrassing sacrifices to teach everyone a lesson. Du Zha thought about it and felt that his father might die of shame.
However, this kind of thought just flashed through Du Zha's mind. Of course, he was not dead now, so he just smiled in his heart. Before the Tuyuhun soldiers could recover, Du Zha yelled: "Shock"
Thunder!"
Several loud, smoking thunderbolts flew out almost at the same time and fell directly behind the earth wall.
"Boom!" Explosions were heard one after another, and the Tuyuhun soldiers standing together were obviously the perfect target for Zhentian Lei. The flying shrapnel was enough to make them doubt their lives.
Through the earth wall, Du Zha could feel the trembling of the entire wall. One could imagine what the scene would be like behind the earth wall.
Before the smoke from the explosion settled, the Han soldiers were already scrambling to jump onto the earthen wall.
There was already a mess behind the earthen wall, but the Tuyuhun soldiers in the distance did not panic. Apparently they had seen this kind of firearm that was very lethal to infantry in the previous Wuwei offensive and defensive battles. Soon a shield bearer appeared.
So he pushed forward. Although this defensive method was better than nothing against Zhentian Lei, it could at least give people some psychological comfort.
Du Zha obediently picked up the shield again.
Holding two horizontal knives in both hands cannot directly threaten the enemy's shield.
The simplest and crudest way is to defeat Baiqiao with one force, and the two sides collide to see who has greater strength. The Han army's swordsmen also spread out along the barrier to clean up the Tuyuhun soldiers who were not protected by shields, and the swordsmen
The shield bearers have already taken the initiative to greet them.
"Bang bang!" A muffled sound came as the shields collided directly.
The shields of the Han soldiers were usually carved with ferocious Yakshas or evil beasts, while the shields of the Tuyuhun soldiers were carved with the cattle and sheep that they relied on for survival. At this time, it was natural to expect that the cattle and sheep could also bring them life.
