1163. The Fight Ends
By the time it was almost afternoon, a major battle broke out again in Tongchuan Prefecture.
Yue Peng had no intention of giving the defenders of Tongchuan Mansion time to make arrangements again.
Only this time, it was no longer Tiankui, Tianyong, and the foot soldiers in the Tianmeng army who were attacking the depths of the city.
After fighting all morning, they were quite tired at this time, and stayed on the outskirts of Beicheng District to stand by.
The light and heavy iron horsemen of the three armies abandoned their horses and launched an attack in the direction of the center of the city. And they were still all dressed in shiny or crimson armor.
This is undoubtedly an extremely rare thing in this day and age.
Because the heavy cavalry armor is too heavy, even if it is a light horse, the weight of the armor is actually not light, and it is extremely inconvenient to wear it to rush and kill on foot.
It's just that the Great Song Forbidden Army doesn't have such concerns.
It has long been said that the new type of armor is lighter and much tougher than the ordinary armor of this era.
The light and heavy iron of the Great Song Dynasty rode on the horse, and it was a torrent of steel. On the ground, the same is true.
The only difference is that they no longer use dragon spears and sabers as weapons, but each of them holds a dragon gun.
The footmen need to rest, but the Dragons don't need to rest.
In the barracks of the Great Song Dynasty, no matter what kind of soldier it is, marksmanship training is also a compulsory course.
Except for the special regiment and Yue Peng's pro-army, almost all of the rest of the Shenlong Gun were transferred to the light and heavy cavalry regiment. This made almost all of the cavalrymen have dragon guns in their hands.
They marched along the main street and the surrounding alleys towards the city.
There are soldiers who are proficient in burying and demolishing mines to explore the way ahead.
This made many thunderstorms arranged by the defenders of Tongchuan Mansion be eliminated.
In terms of playing thunder, the Great Song Dynasty Forbidden Army can be said to be their ancestor.
In less than two quarters of an hour, the sound of gunfire spread throughout the city. Then it became noisy and chaotic at a rapid pace.
At the same time, the special regiments of the Tianyong and Tianmeng armies, as well as the Western Xia Forbidden Army, were also spreading towards the east and west sides of Beicheng District.
Then the special regiments of Tianyong and Tianmeng used as sharp knives to launch an offensive against the defenders of Tongchuan Mansion.
Bullets rained down.
The thunderbolt also constantly draws a parabola in the air.
Although the number of the forbidden army of the Great Song Dynasty is far less than that of the two armies of the New Song Dynasty and Dali in the city, its momentum is now far from being comparable to that of the two armies.
Most of the traps, tunnels, etc. of the deputy palace master of Guigu, Chi Fenggu and others are arranged next to the north city gate, and when they go deeper, many Tongchuan army no longer have cover, so they can only choose to fight head-on.
And the price they paid for this was naturally extremely heavy.
No flesh and blood can stop the edge of the dragon.
These New Song Dynasty troops and Dali troops gathered in Tongchuan Mansion rushed towards the Great Song Forbidden Army with swords and guns, and unexpectedly fell under the Shenlong guns.
The only thing they can threaten the Great Song Forbidden Army is still the thunder.
And this kind of thing is also found in the Great Song Dynasty Forbidden Army.
What's even worse is that after the Great Song Forbidden Army and the defenders of Tongchuan Mansion fought and stood up, the grenadiers in the Great Song Forbidden Army also rushed to the rear of the army.
They bombarded the places where the defenders of Tongchuan Province had gathered.
This made the defenders in the Tongchuan Mansion cry and shout more than their mother.
In fact, the situation has been quite clear since this battle has been fought.
Under the circumstance that the Great Song Forbidden Army did not take into account the people in the city, these defenders of Tongchuan Mansion could not resist their offensive at all.
And now, the defenders of Tongchuan Mansion have suffered losses from the city, and they have no intention of letting the people come to resist firearms.
Air.
The armies of the Great Song Dynasty and the Western Xia, as well as the hot air balloons in the defenders of Tongchuan Prefecture, also rose into the air again shortly after the war began.
Only this time, the situation of the hot air balloon defenders in Tongchuan Province was even worse than in the morning.
They couldn't think of a way to deal with the cupola.
When it had just taken off, it was directly bombarded by a cannon that shot down a lot.
The hot air balloons in the Great Song Forbidden Army didn't even plan to shoot at them, and just after they lifted into the air, they headed towards the front of the Forbidden Army on the ground.
Some are over the main street.
Others are above the east and west streets. This is to provide fire support to the special regiment on the ground.
And the effect is undoubtedly significant.
The soldiers of the special regiments of the Tianyong and Tianmeng armies, which had already spread towards the city on the east and west streets, were even more powerful in an instant.
They are all armed with dragon guns, and their marksmanship is extremely accurate, and their movements are swift. So that the defenders of Tongchuan Mansion who resisted them did not dare to come forward.
Helian Cheng got his wish, and finally saw the power of the special regiment of the Great Song Forbidden Army up close.
This made him so envious.
Looking at the sophisticated weapons of the soldiers of the special regiment, his eyes almost flashed with green light.
It is true that the soldiers of the Great Song Special Regiment are brave and good at fighting, but this kind of soldiers, all countries only need to imitate the Song Army's training methods in the past, and they can probably be cultivated in a while.
But in terms of hardware and equipment, it is impossible for them to catch up with the footsteps of the Great Song Forbidden Army.
Helian Cheng was envious in his heart, but suddenly he was also a little dignified.
The Great Song Dynasty and the Western Xia are now allies, but in the future, when the Great Song Dynasty destroys the New Song Dynasty and the Yuan Dynasty, what kind of relationship will the two countries get along? Can it still be as harmonious as it is now?
After seeing the combat effectiveness of the Great Song Forbidden Army, he suddenly felt that if the Great Song Dynasty had the intention of annexing Western Xia, it would be impossible for them to resist it at all.
Maintaining autonomy will also be reduced to a luxury.
And these, Helian Cheng didn't know if the empress had already taken precautions.
He led the forbidden army under his command to follow behind the soldiers of the Great Song Special Regiment, and there was no chance to intervene.
It wasn't until the soldiers of the special regiment in front suddenly turned south that Helian City suddenly came back to his senses.
He asked the generals next to him, "Why don't they rush forward and kill anymore?" ”
The general looked at him with rather strange eyes, and replied, "General, you have already attacked the West Gate." According to the plan, we should rush to the center of the city now. ”
"Oh......"
Helian Cheng responded softly and waved his hand: "Soldiers, keep up with the pace of the allies!" ”
Then he led the army to the front.
This time, they are really here to wave the flag.
As Helian City ran, his heart was even more surprised.
The Tianyong Army Special Regiment was only a thousand people, and he really never thought that these thousand people would be able to brew the defense of the defenders of Tongchuan Mansion on West Street in such a short period of time.
It seems that in this battle of Tongchuan Mansion, the Great Song Forbidden Army should be victorious.
And on East Street.
The situation is also similar to this West Street.
Qu Rujian led the Western Xia Forbidden Army, but he only followed behind the soldiers of the Tianmeng Army's special regiment and waved his flag and shouted.
With the fire support of the hot air balloon in the air, the officers and men of the special regiment of the Tianmeng Army were also overwhelmed.
When they reached the east gate of the city, they also turned around and went to the center of the city.
The Great Song Dynasty forbidden army gradually became a two-sided attack.
The deputy palace master of Guigu and Chi Fenggu and others are proficient in the art of war and tactics, and under this absolute strength gap, it is difficult to turn the tide.
The morale of the New Song and Dali armies gradually declined.
Although most of the New Song and Dali armies in the city were not killed at this time, their resistance was definitely not how tenacious and resolute.
I was scared of being beaten.
There's not much hope in sight.
Now the situation of the new Song Dynasty can be seen clearly by anyone with a little brain.
To say that it sounds good is to make the last struggle, and to say that it is not to sound good, it is to use the mantis arm as a car.
In terms of national strength and military strength, the New Song Dynasty didn't know how far it was thrown out by the Great Song Dynasty.
This is not something that a few geniuses of the Ghost Valley Academy can make up for.
The art of war, tactics, etc., in front of the grenadier and the dragon gun, the effect is greatly reduced.
And what kind of divisive plan and so on, it is useless for the current Great Song Dynasty Forbidden Army.
The Great Song Dynasty Forbidden Army was in full swing, and the whole army was tightly condensed with Zhao Dongting as the center. It can be said that the knife can't cut in, and the water can't splash in.
This kind of trick is not unused in the new Song Dynasty. It's just that none of them have been able to make contributions.
Fighting, and killing from afternoon to sunset.
And then spread from sunset to night.
The sound of guns in the city finally quieted out again.
Only this time, it was not Yue Peng who withdrew his troops again. Instead, the defenders of Tongchuan Mansion in the city had almost given up resistance.
Under the combined attack of the Great Song Dynasty and the Western Xia armies, their garrisons were broken one after another.
In the end, the army's morale was scattered, some soldiers knelt on the ground and begged to surrender, and some soldiers scattered and fled, which was just a logical thing.
In this battle, when the deputy palace master of Guigu and Chi Fenggu were not killed, only at this time, they were even more powerless to turn the tide.
When they heard the soldiers report the defeat of the army in the palace, they only sighed softly.
Lose unjustly.
They didn't feel that they were at fault in this battle, and they really did their best.
The defeat is due to the fact that the strength of the two armies is too far apart.
By the time the battle was completely over, the night was quite dark.
There are only a few soldiers of the New Song Dynasty and Dali who escaped in the entire Tongchuan Mansion. In the system, there are only a very few armies such as the deputy palace master of Guigu and the pro-army of Chi Fenggu.
