Chapter 313: Pitted Again

Chapter 313 was pitted again

After a long time, Luo Heng frowned and said, "Lord Commander, Liukou will definitely go to fight Luoyang, right?" ”

Ding Luyan pursed his lips sarcastically, "Why do thieves have to fight Luoyang?" Wouldn't it be better to take advantage of Gao Yingxiang's opportunity to attract attention in the south and take Hanguguan and Kunzhou? With Hangu Pass and Kunzhou, coupled with the natural danger of the Yellow River, you can attack Luoyang at any time, retreat to the advantage of Hangu Pass, and block 100,000 male soldiers! If it were you, what would you choose? ”

"This ......" Cao Ye and the others were speechless for a moment, in fact, they had already recognized Ding Luyan's opinion in their hearts, but they were just a little lucky.

knew that sending troops to rescue was the best choice, because only the tens of thousands of Xuanfu border troops could be relied on at the moment. As long as the soldiers and horses of the Iron Inspector Division are freed from the quagmire of the ferry, the situation in Ruzhou and Kunzhou can be quickly reversed, and Hangu Pass will become safe and worry-free. However, who can afford the responsibility for the fall of Hangu Pass?

Ding Luyan looked at the expressions on everyone's faces, sighed after a long time, he stood up, and said frankly: "There is no way to divide troops to rescue, now the thieves are putting all their attention on the Iron Inspector, and at this time, sending troops to attack will definitely achieve miraculous results." As long as the thieves loosen up a little, I believe that with the combat effectiveness of the Xuanfu soldiers and horses, they will soon be able to control the situation. In this matter, Ding has already decided, if there is a mistake in the letter Guguan afterwards, the court will be held accountable, and Ding will bear it, and it has nothing to do with you. ”

Soon, a trace of shame climbed on everyone's faces, and Ding Luyan's words made everyone embarrassed. Cao Yi got up and said: "Why did General Ding say this, you and I will guard the Hangu Pass together, if something happens, how can there be a reason for you to be held responsible." Now that the chief soldier has already made a decision, then this matter is considered to be the last part, divide the troops and sneak attack, as long as we are fast enough to quickly return to Hangu Pass, I believe that nothing will go wrong. ”

As he spoke, Cao Yi glanced at Luo Heng and the others. Cao Yi's words are beautiful, but in fact they are by no means as righteous as they seem. Standing on Ding Luyan's side, it is really helpless. Everyone kept the letter to Guguan together, and if something happened, the head general soldier carried it down. Is that a good thing? If you really want to agree, no matter what happens later, they won't be able to mix in the officialdom.

There is still a big difference between the military and civilian officials, and the emphasis is on holding together, whether it is right or wrong, it has to be twisted into a rope. This situation is not good, let the boss carry the black pot alone, who will dare to reuse it in the future?

Luo Heng and the others were not stupid, so they naturally knew what Cao Yi meant, so a few more people stood up to support Ding Luyan intermittently. No matter what these people think in their hearts, at least they have helped Ding Luyan a lot. After discussion, Ding Luyan did not delay, and immediately ordered 3,000 soldiers and horses to kill from the northern foot of Kunshan Mountain towards Maojindu.

The garrison of Michi was less than 5,000, and these peasant armies had been paying attention to the movements in the direction of Maojindu, and had not noticed the changes on the side of Hangu Pass. Perhaps because the defenders of Hangu Pass did not dare to move, Michi did not even look at Hangu Pass. Ding Luyan was cautious at first, for fear that the Michi side would react, but later saw that the thieves in Michi did not move at all, so he suddenly became much bolder, and simply accelerated his pace.

At this time, Zhang Dashou was still ignorant of what was going on behind him, and the peasant army, which had just finished at dawn, had a hasty meal and rested for a few hours, launched another attack on the position in front. Then the sound of artillery rang out, and the officers and men were still returning fire, but it was obvious that the intensity of today's firepower was not a little worse than yesterday's. Yuan Ma, Zhang Yichuan and the others keenly felt the difference, and Yuan Ma was the first to react, and immediately ordered: "Let the half of the brothers in the back all press up." ”

Soon, Yuan Ma's men rushed forward in a dense formation, and the expected firepower coverage did not arrive, and the sound of artillery was still sparse. Yuan Ma raised his eyebrows, and immediately laughed, it seems that the Living Yama King has begun to withdraw, otherwise the counterattack of the officers and soldiers would not be so weak.

Just when Yuan Ma was tentatively attacking, Zhang Yichuan and others also reacted to the situation on the front line to Zhang Dashou. Zhang Dashou was suddenly a little anxious, and finally seized the opportunity, if he didn't hit the soldiers and horses of the living Hades, how could he be willing?

"Zhang Yichuan, Wei Yang, press all your people up, make a breakthrough as quickly as possible, this time, try to eliminate the people of the Living Yama King, and let the Living Yama King know that we are not easy to bully!"

With Zhang Dashou's order, the peasant army changed its previous attack method and began to rush forward in a swarm again. Yuan Ma and the others were very excited, for a long time, this was the first time to defeat the living Hades head-on, and after this battle, they would definitely have a great reputation and overpower that Gao Yingxiang. What is the king? The Four Heavenly Kings? To hell with it!

Victory was in sight, and the peasant armies, who had taken the credit, had lost their order, and they rushed into the vicinity of the dock in dense clusters, and in this radius of several miles, it was like ants encroaching on a bowl. Yuan Ma followed the crowd, running and roaring, victory was in sight, if he could slaughter the living Hades, then he Yuan would be famous.

Suddenly, Yuan Ma's heart beat violently, and his right eyelid looked like he had been stung by a bee. This feeling made him very uneasy, because when this happened, it was often not good. Boom, the voice......

It's not good, Yuan Ma secretly screamed in his heart, and without thinking about it, he turned around and jumped back, directly knocking a strong man who was still running to the ground. Almost in the blink of an eye, a rumbling sound crossed the sky, a cannonball exploded from three feet away, the cannonball fell into the dense crowd, and in an instant several guys were blown to the ground and wailed, stumps and broken arms scattered around, blood, minced flesh, and everyone was frightened. Yuan Ma gasped and got up from the ground, his back hurt fiercely, looking at the mutilated corpses, listening to the screams close at hand, Yuan Ma's heart and liver were about to jump out.

Fortunately, he reacted in time, otherwise he would be half-crippled if he didn't die...... Before Yuan Ma could come back to his senses, the previously sparse cannon sound became denser, and the gunfire became much more rapid. Cannonballs bloomed everywhere, smoke billowed everywhere, flesh and blood flew everywhere, and for a moment, a radius of several miles seemed to have become a bloody hell.

It's over, fooled! Yuan Ma couldn't help but shudder, at this time, without Yuan Ma and others giving orders, the peasant army had already begun to turn around and flee backwards. They never wanted to hear this kind of deadly cannon sound again. Everyone wants to run for their lives, but with so many people crammed into such a small range, how can they run clean if they want to? The men and horses behind were fine, and they turned around and retreated to the high slope, but most of them had already penetrated deep into the hinterland, and the artillery fire extended over and turned into a sea of death.

Dust, smoke and blood stained the sky into a different color, and in the blood mist, there were panicked faces. In the face of this crazy artillery fire, how to resist?

On a fort, He Jing looked at the battlefield in the distance expressionlessly, watching those peasant troops being swallowed up by artillery fire and crushed by musketeers, and he felt a trace of unbearable in his heart. However, no mercy is allowed on the battlefield, and if you don't kill them, you will die. The sound of artillery continued, He Jingyuan did not save shells this time, he received an order to shoot out all the shells at the right time, and then blow up the artillery that could not be transported, in short, the artillery could not be left to the thieves.

What a good artillery, to be blown up here, when he thought of this, He Jingyuan was a little unwilling. I have been with artillery for a long time, and I have already formed feelings for these artillery, these artillery are the lifeblood of the fire battalion, and when I knew that I was going to explode the artillery, many brothers cried. I can't help it, but what can I do?

The thieves withdrew, and when the shells were finished, it was time for them to finish their final work. He Jingyuan was uncomfortable, and Zhang Dashou was even more uncomfortable, at this time, Zhang Dashou's heart was dripping blood, and tears were flowing in his eyes.

Zhang Dashou never dreamed that the living Hades King actually hid a hand, the previous position was precarious, and he didn't even order artillery fire to cover it, so he wasn't afraid that the position would be taken by accident? Covered by artillery fire, covered by artillery fire, the fighting style of the living Hades has no technical content at all, it is to bombard you with cannonballs, but you just don't have any ruts at all.

If this round is defeated, the casualties will definitely not be small, and if it can't be defeated, it will be fought again. However, what Zhang Dashou is really worried about is morale, after this defeat, do you still have the heart to fight to the death? Mo said that those ordinary soldiers, that is, Yuan Ma and these people, all had wrong eyes, and they were obviously frightened.

"Leader Zhang, the preliminary casualties have been counted, and the total casualties of each department are more than 8,000 people......

Although he was already mentally prepared, when he heard the specific numbers, Zhang Dashou couldn't help but wail secretly. After fighting for so many days before, the casualties were not so big, but in less than two hours, the casualties were several days ahead, "Huh, it is estimated that there are not many shells left in the hands of the living Hades, and he can't support it for long with artillery fire like before." Brothers, at this critical moment, please restrain your subordinates and work together to overcome this hurdle. After an hour, attack again....."

As soon as they heard that they were going to attack again, the faces of Zhang Yichuan and the others changed, especially Yuan Ma, who rushed the most fiercely just now, so he suffered the biggest loss. Rush again, if he is bombed again, then he Yuan Ma will become the leader of the singles.

"This ..... Leader Zhang...... What if the living Hades still had stock? Yuan Ma lowered his head and his tone was dissatisfied. Anyway, he Yuan someone is not rushing, who wants to go. Zhang Dashou knew that Yuan Ma had suffered the heaviest loss, so he didn't say anything, but his face was not very good, and his eyes fell on Zhang Yichuan and the others. Look at the past, and whoever you see, you will lower your head and keep silent.

Seeing this posture, Zhang Da was angry enough, "Hmph, after a while, Zhang personally led the crowd forward, there are brothers who are willing to be together, Zhang welcomes it, he is unwilling, and Zhang is not reluctant." ”

Zhang Dashou has already expressed his position like this, and Zhang Yichuan and others still did not say anything. Yuan Ma scolded even more in his heart, Zhang Dashou just stood and talked without backache, and the soldiers and horses who belonged to Zhang Dashou before had no loss, so of course Zhang Dashou had confidence at this time.

was thinking about how to boost morale and let Zhang Yichuan and the others regain their fighting spirit, when suddenly there was a chaotic sound from the south, it seemed that something had happened in the camp over there. Since coming to Maojindu, Zhang Dashou divided the tens of thousands of troops into three large battalions, the front, the middle and the rear, and the large battalion in the rear was for the reserves and wounded soldiers to rest.

"What's going on?"

Not long after a personal soldier ran out, he came back in a panic, "Leaders, it's not good, the officers and soldiers are coming..... The brothers of the Nanda Battalion were defenseless and were caught off guard by the officers and soldiers, and now the various departments of the Nanda Battalion are in chaos......"

Zhang Yichuan frowned, and looked at the pro-soldier is a few ear scrapers, "You calm down Lao Tzu, think about it, the officers and soldiers are all at the ferry, where are the officers and soldiers from the south, aren't they crazy?" ”

After a few slaps, the pro-soldier finally calmed down, but he covered his cheeks and said aggrievedly: "Leaders, the little ones are not talking nonsense, it is really the officers and soldiers who sneaked up on the Nanda Battalion, and the officers and soldiers who are not dressed at the ferry port are like the soldiers and horses of Henan Mansion...... Just ......"

There is no need to say the next words in person, because the news that the Nanda camp guard will be killed has also been reported, and the identity of the other party has also been determined, and those officers and soldiers turned out to be the Hangu Pass defenders.

The officers and soldiers of Hangu Pass did not guard the city, and dared to run out to support the living Hades, aren't they crazy? Whether the officers and soldiers are crazy or not, Zhang Dashou doesn't know, but he knows that he is about to go crazy. There is chaos in the south, if the situation is not controlled as soon as possible, once the living king of Yama in the north reacts, with the combat effectiveness of the Xuanfu border army, once he counterattacks, he Zhang Dashou will only have to flee for his life.

"Quick..... Quick, we must destroy this Eagle Claw Sun as soon as possible, otherwise, we will be in big trouble! "Needless to say, everyone understands it very well. At this time, Zhang Yichuan and others also broke off the idea of preserving their strength, and each gathered troops and horses, and divided their troops to go to the southern camp, as long as they could destroy this group of officers and soldiers before the counterattack of the living king of Hades, everything was still in time.

There weren't many defenders of Hangu Pass, so there were even fewer who could be separated to support Chitsudu.

.......

Maojindu Fort, He Jingyuan gently stroked the inky black cannon barrel, and at this time, the cannon barrel still had the residual temperature after the cannon was fired quickly. Hey, after all, I still have to order the destruction of these artillery. Even if you use your strength to eat milk, only half of it can be transported back. The artillery is infinitely powerful and equally bulky, and even if the Ordnance Institute specializes in the development of gun carriages, it still can't change the fact that they are cumbersome.

Just as she was about to give the order, Elizabeth, who had been holding a clairvoyant mirror and looking into the distance, suddenly let out an exclamation. He Jingyuan was upset, and when he heard this exclamation, he frowned and wanted to curse, but he swallowed back when the words came to his mouth. This Rakshasa girl is extremely charming, and she is unclear with the Inspector, who knows what her relationship is with the Inspector? scolded her, if this woman blows the demon wind, won't she be unlucky?

"Huh? What's wrong? ”

"General He, look at it, those enemies are fighting on their own!"

"Infighting?" He Jingyuan took the clairvoyant mirror with a puzzled look, he didn't believe that the Liukou would have infighting. Through the clairvoyant mirror, I quickly saw the mess in the distance, and after looking at it for a while, the sadness in my eyes was swept away, and I shouted, "Haha, hurry up and drop, tell those rabbit cubs, don't be busy with bombing, it's not good, these treasures can be saved!" ”
