Chapter 347: The army was horrified
That's a hairball, no, it's not just a hairball, it's a nightmare that the East and West armies will never get away with in this life!
Those round things exploded in the middle of them, and some even watched as their comrades around them were blown off their legs and hands.
Rumble! Rumble! Rumble!
The terrible loud noise continued to explode, the blood in the sky, the flesh that flew out, the ground was a large earth pit, and the neighing war horses, all of which made the East and West armies scream in horror.
"Heavenly Thunder!"
"Help!"
In the army, there was a person who called for help, as if it was contagious, and the screams for help came from time to time.
Not only the soldiers, but also the hairballs, and the generals in the army, were also panicked and frightened by these grenades.
"Retreat!"
"Retreat!"
"Retreat!"
The army was ordered to retreat as fast as possible, and soon moved away from the city.
Everyone was shocked.
"General, our army has suffered nearly 10,000 casualties!" After counting the casualties, the number reported made everyone even more alarmed.
"What?"
Maoqiu's face is as dark as ink, this is almost just a photo! When the two armies were fighting, he obviously felt that the strength of the soldiers of the Hua Dynasty was really not as good as the brave and good fighting of the eastern and western armies, and in the short battle, his own casualties should not be much! Therefore, most of the casualties are under those "thunderstorms"! If he hadn't ordered a quick retreat, their casualties would have been even greater! It's horrible!
Furball waved the soldier down and strode to the command tent. He represents the Eastern Chart. But there are two generals in the Eastern and Western armies, and the other is Li Kuai, General Li, sent by Xigui. In addition to the two generals, there are also two military divisions, also one for one country, but the actual relationship between the two military divisions is known to the monarchs of the two countries.
They are a mentor-apprentice relationship.
The master is naturally a military master, named Hu Yeqing, and his actual age is over fifty, but he looks like he is in his thirties. The hair color is different from that of ordinary people. It is dark brown, and the skin is very pale, and the cyan capillaries under the skin can be seen. If Rao Xuekong saw it, she would think that this person looked a lot like the Western vampire in the movie. In the eyes of the ancients. It's also a little scary to look like this. plus Hu Yeqing's ability. So they were all very jealous of him.
And Xigui's military advisor is named Gu Yang, who is about thirty years old and is an ordinary-looking man. If he is placed in a crowd, he is the kind that can be forgotten by sight.
Hu Yeqing is Song Xinyue's master, and Gu Yang is her eldest brother.
No one knows, in fact, Li Shentian was also the one who helped Gu Yang grab the dragon chair, it can be said that Dongtu and Xigui have long had a deep cooperative relationship because of these people.
Hu Yeqing doesn't like to see the sun, so he basically stays in the tent, and everything is basically done by Gu Yang.
"National teacher, can the heavenly thunder be used by people?"
Furball asked loudly as he rushed into the tent.
Hu Yeqing is also the national teacher of Dongtu.
After listening to Maoqiu's words, Hu Yeqing slowly raised his head, glanced at him, and didn't reply. Gu Yang on the side frowned: "General Mao, how can Tianlei be used by people?" Even the Son of Heaven cannot condemn the thunder of heaven. I want to ask you, what's going on with the sound just now? ”
The explosion of those grenades just now can be heard here. But after such a long distance, the voice was already much quieter, and I couldn't hear the shock, otherwise Gu Yang wouldn't have asked so lightly.
"Just now" Mao Qiu was about to talk about the terrible thing on the battlefield, when he heard Hu Yeqing say: "Did General Mao not listen to his own division?" I asked you to arrest Rao Xuekong alive, but what about the people now? ”
The hairball froze for a moment, and said: "National teacher, I was about to say this, that Rao Xuekong didn't know where to get it, round iron balls, thrown from a high place, can explode, the sound is huge, the lethality is extremely strong, that is a weapon that Mao Qiu has never seen and heard of!" Originally, we would definitely be able to take down the border gate city in this round, kill the 400,000 military horses of the Hua Dynasty, and capture that Rao Xue Kongsheng in front of the national teacher, but because of that kind of thing, we were forced to retreat and fell short! ”
Hu Yeqing slapped the table, swept his body with a cold gaze, and said, "The limbs are well developed and the mind is simple." ”
The furball dared to be angry but did not dare to speak. suppressed his anger and said in a deep voice: "The national teacher has been here for several days, shouldn't I also go out to see how tricky that Rao Xuekong is?" ”
He always thought that Rao Xuekong was scheming, but just now he had a confrontation with her on the battlefield, and then he looked at her ruthlessness when killing the enemy, and he no longer dared to underestimate this young woman.
And now that Hua Chao has come up with those similar terrible things, in this battle, his confidence is not as great as it was at the beginning.
At this time, General Li Kuai of Xigui walked in and asked, "What's going on with the army?" All the soldiers seemed to be frightened! ”
"Hana Chao has terrible weapons! One shot caused nearly 10,000 casualties to our army! ”
Hearing Li Kuai's words, Hu Yeqing seemed to believe a little, and said to Gu Yang: "Ah Yang, after nightfall, you go to investigate and investigate in person." ”
"Yes, Master."
Furball breathed a sigh of relief. The faction of the national teacher, all kinds of strange skills, Gu Yang's kung fu is also very good, if he can find out about the situation of that terrible thing, it would be great.
"Ah Yang, after entering the city, if you have time, you can simply arrest Rao Xuekong as a teacher."
"Yes, Master."
Listening to the conversation between the master and apprentice, it seems that it is an easy thing for them to sneak into the border pass city, and even, as long as they have time, they can sneak into the camp of the army and capture the other general.
"General, the eastern and western armies have just retreated, what are we going to do here?" Hua Daihu, who led the elite team of 3,000 people, looked at Rao Xuekong's eyes now and was so worshipful that he couldn't worship it anymore.
Rao Xuekong pointed to the pile of things in the quartermaster depot and said, "Bring it." She didn't answer him directly, it wasn't easy to talk about it anyway, so it was better to go and let him see it directly.
The east and west were lifted, and the 3,000 people arrived at their destination, which was the place where the eastern and western armies needed to pass through the border city, and it was also the place where they used to dig snakes.
"Remember where those snake caves are?" Rao Xuekong asked.
The soldiers nodded.
Rao Xuekong lifted the tarpaulin covering the basket and said, "Watch me do it all over again, and put these things in the shallow snake hole." ”
This is the gunpowder she deliberately left, why choose Shekou, because time is tight, it takes time to dig a hole again by yourself, and it is a waste of time to explain and choose a place, so many people are busy together, they are all laymen, maybe it will be a mess.
They were responsible for setting the gunpowder, and she could pull the letter herself, and she could do it herself if she needed to arrange it herself.
The shells for those grenades have been used up, and now there is only a small amount of stock left, although she has sent a letter to ask Hua Yuanjin to continue to let people do the shipping, but it will take time. And the number of the Eastern and Western armies is too large, and she can only wear them out one move at a time.
The soldiers of the Hua Dynasty were shocked by the power of the grenade before, and then they were extremely excited, feeling that if this army had divine help, they would definitely not lose. But she has to dispel their over-reliance on grenades, and dispel their over-inflated confidence, otherwise it will be a great obstacle to their development in the future.
Of course, she needs to win too. Therefore, the difficulties of this war are not only objective, but also the balance between these two issues.
"This arrangement, if nothing else, can at least destroy thousands of troops from the East and West."
The arrangement was so good, Rao Xueding ordered that no one should be allowed to approach, and after all the details were dealt with, he couldn't see that he had moved his hands and feet, which made the people of the elite team admire.
At this time, Jin Xiaohan had already returned to the Dayu army that was marching rapidly.
"General, I received an urgent letter from His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of the Hua Dynasty!" The green lion rode over and said hurriedly: "Originally, we all thought that the eastern and western armies had all gone to the border city, but the prince received news that the eastern and western armies were more than one million, and a large-scale army was found in the most remote mountain range in the northeast!" ”
"Northeast Mountains?" Jin Xiaohan frowned. In fact, he has also considered it before, Dongtu Xigui wants to attack the Hua Dynasty, naturally it is impossible to attack from only one place, but the terrain of the Hua Dynasty is very special, except for the border gate city that is just adjacent to the Xigui, with a tall city, the other directions are stretching mountains, after entering the territory of the Hua Dynasty, you have to climb over many mountains to reach the city, and it is not suitable for attacking, because the road is extremely far, and it is difficult to keep up with the grain and grass. After a long journey to attack a city, the army will be very tired.
Of course, there is also an advantage, after those mountains, the city walls are not as strong and tall as the border gates, and it is easier to attack.
"How many centaurs?"
"It was an Orion who went into the mountains to hunt unintentionally, and he was shocked when he found out, but he immediately took a shortcut back to the city and reported it to the government, but he said that he didn't know how many people and horses there were, only that from a distance, soldiers pulling war horses can occupy a mountain range!"
"All the soldiers of the Hua Dynasty are in the border city, does Hua Yuanjin mean that we should take the army to the Northeast Mountain Range to resist the other army of the East and West?"
"That's what His Royal Highness the Crown Prince meant! There are only about 30,000 defenders in the northeast of the cities, and if the eastern and western armies go out of the mountains and attack them one by one, those cities will not be able to hold out for two days. ”
Jin Xiaohan was silent for a moment and looked in the direction of Bian Guancheng.
If you march quickly, you can reach the border gate city in two days.
Originally, Rao Xuekong was waiting for his support with 400,000 Hua Dynasty soldiers, if he brought the army now and turned to the Northeast Mountain Range, would she be able to withstand it?
"Leo, you take the army and turn to the Northeast Mountains, and I will catch up later." Jin Xiaohan said, and immediately rode his horse and galloped towards the border pass city.
He didn't take a look at the situation in Bianguan City, didn't go to talk to Rao Xuekong in person, and left like this with confidence.
And this night in the border gate city is extraordinarily quiet.
Rao Xuekong gave an order, all the soldiers should have a good rest and recuperate their spirits, and no one did not listen to her words now. (To be continued......)
