Chapter 154: Breaking the Enemy
In the Liangshan camp, which had been noisy all night last night, some people gradually began to get up.
These were the lowest-ranking soldiers, who had to get up before dawn to collect firewood and water, and prepare meals for the heroes.
This is an indispensable thing every day, and if you delay it, you will have to be beaten.
A group of more than ten men who were either half-old men or hairless little hairy children yawned, laughed and laughed about how they were last night, and walked to the hill in the distance to pick up firewood.
"Yesterday, I drank two jars of fine wine, and Leader Wang looked stupid."
"You can blow it hard, he can give you two bowls to drink, and there will be green smoke on your grave."
"The little girl's skin that Wang Tou took away yesterday looks so good at the fine skin and tender meat. I can't wait for us to go back and beg Boss Wang to see if we can get a piece of the pie. ”
"Didn't you grab one? Not enough? Brother, I really don't see it, it's okay. ”
"Don't mention it, that looks unappetizing. is still struggling to resist like a martyr. As soon as I was in a hurry, I gave her a knife, what is that? ”
While laughing, the group saw a silver light shining under the hill in the distance.
The slogans on Liangshan were shouted loudly, and those who ate meat and drank wine in large bowls were actually only able to enjoy it by leaders at all levels.
For example, they are not even soldiers, and the most low-status gang leader army can taste the meat two or three times a month.
They can only eat brown rice all day long, lack of non-staple food supplements, and cannot eat fish, meat, eggs, fresh vegetables, etc., and these people are all suffering from night blindness.
They only looked in the distance until a bright light was approaching, but no matter how they wiped their eyes, they couldn't see what it was.
The night breeze blew, and the sound of the collision of the nails and leaves was blown by the wind and reached their ears.
Everyone looked at each other, and after a while, they suddenly shouted in unison, threw away all kinds of things in their hands, and ran back as if they were dead.
Panicked shouts gradually resounded throughout the camp.
The awakened man cursed and got up to look over there, and then they saw a scene that stunned everyone.
Under the hill in the distance, a long line of countless points of light kept approaching, surging like a roaring tide.
"The officers and soldiers have killed !!"
A terrible howl finally broke the silence of the night. Soon the entire Liangshan camp was boiling.
In the distance, a golden ray of sunlight finally floated in the sky.
The sun shone down and shone on that long line, and the man who was pierced by the intersection of halo and shiny armor couldn't open his eyes.
Now everyone can finally see clearly.
The sharp blades shone with a cold light, and the sturdy armor shone like a mirror. The footsteps of the brushes and legs stepped on the ground, and the earth was shaken.
A torrent of steel!
There is no doubt that the number of people in Liangshan is extremely large, at least ten times that of the Ruiwu battalion.
But their state at this time is at the level of complete collapse.
Because of last night's carnival and hangover, tens of thousands of Liangshan soldiers and horses were extremely scattered. The boss can't find the minion, and the minion can't find the boss. Even most people are still in a hangover.
They could not find their blades, nor their armor, nor their horses, nor their horses, nor their own weapons.
Seeing that the ironclad Great Wall of the official army was approaching within 100 steps, the nearby Liangshan soldiers and horses howled in unison, turned around and ran.
"The official army is coming~"
"The officers and soldiers are coming"
The terrible howls along the way were like collapsed dominoes, driving more and more Liangshan soldiers and horses into flight.
The armor soldier with a shield and a gun walked by, and the short spear was raised upside down, directly piercing the bandit who had drunk too much and was still sleeping soundly at his feet.
More and more Liangshan soldiers and horses saw their own people fleeing everywhere, and saw the officials and soldiers coming to cover up. In a panic, I didn't know what to do, so I could only flee with it, and there was chaos in the camp outside Zengtou City.
"Sword and shield soldiers, step forward! Crossbowmen volley! ”
Wang Xiao, who was in the array, followed the queue and saw that the camp was gradually falling into great chaos, and immediately ordered the whole army to attack.
The crossbowmen began to fire their arrows, and the sword and shield soldiers quickly pursued the fleeing Liangshan men and horses past the heavily armored soldiers.
Compared to the slower-paced heavy armorers, the light-armored sword and shield soldiers moved much faster. They slaughtered into the camp of Liangshan and mercilessly slaughtered all the targets that lived.
The terrible screams dispersed like a tidal wave, and the sword and shield soldiers began to chase and kill in units, and then divided into groups. It's like a ripple on the water, spreading outward.
The soldiers and horses of Liangshan, who lacked training and did not have the slightest organization, were quickly defeated and fled.
In the midst of the great chaos, countless people were killed by crossbow shots, and were chased and killed by sword and shield soldiers. There was also a drunkard who was drunk in a panic and crashed headlong into the array of the Ruiwu Battalion.
The Liangshan soldiers and horses outside the village collapsed in the tsunami-like fighting sound of the mountain, and all around them were screaming and fleeing crowds, under the infection of panic for several days, even the calmest person Ye could not stay calm.
With a rain of arrows, with the pursuit of the sword and shield soldiers. Tens of thousands of Liangshan soldiers and horses scattered and fled like a swarm of bees ignited in their nests.
Countless people fled with the crowd in a dazzled manner, pushing each other and stumbling to the ground. In an instant, he was trampled by his brothers in the past with countless pairs of big feet, and he could no longer stand up.
The entire Liangshan camp shouted and neighed, as if the end was coming.
Wang Xiao raised his hand and lowered his armor, raised his iron gun and pointed at Zengtou City, "Continue to move forward and rush into Zhuangzi!" ”
The Liangshan battalion is over, and these collapsed people have no combat effectiveness to speak of. It was enough for the crossbowmen and the sword and shield soldiers to chase and kill. The leaders in Zengtou City are Wang Xiao's targets.
The tsunami-like wails outside had already alarmed the people in Zengtou City.
Many hangover chieftains climbed to the head of the village in panic, looking at the camp outside, which had fallen into madness, and frightened like quails in a storm.
"How could it be, how could it be, how could it be!?"
Chao Gai, who didn't have time to put on his clothes, looked outside with a frightened face, no matter what, he couldn't believe that Wang Xiao was really here.
It's just one night, and Wang Xiao's army, which was thought to be absolutely impossible to come, really traveled dozens of miles at night to kill here!
"Big brother, let's go!"
Ruan Xiaoqi rushed over and hugged Chao Gai, dragging him back.
Although it is said that there are thousands of Liangshan soldiers and horses in this Zhuangzi. But these people are basically hungovers, with no armor on their bodies and no knives in their hands.
Moreover, the attack of the past few days had already destroyed the walls and defenses of Zengtou City. In the face of hundreds of tin cans wrapped all over their bodies, it was impossible for them to resist at all.
Staying here is a dead end.
Chao Gai listened to the earth-shattering crying outside, and was so annoyed that he wanted to give himself a knife.
He hates it!
Negligently, he let his guard down and looked down on Na Wu Jiro. I didn't expect people to be so bold, and they really seized the most tired and relaxed opportunity of Liangshan's soldiers and horses to break it with one blow.
The strength that has been accumulated after so many years of hard work is in ashes in one day.
Chao Gai clenched his fists, his eyes bloodshot, and roared angrily.
"I hate it!!"
Wang Xiao pointed a gun at the gate of Zengtou City, "Kill them in and drive them to the river." ”
Although there were no cavalry, Wang Xiao was not worried that most of the soldiers and horses in Liangshan would run away.
Because he had long known the terrain around here.
Zengtou City is surrounded by plains on both sides and hills on one side. On the other side of the hill, behind the villa is a small river.
Wang Xiao led the soldiers and horses to kill from the side of the hill, and after dividing the troops to chase and kill, they all rushed towards the river from both wings.
Although the river is not big, people who don't know how to swim will never be able to swim across it.
Don't think that Liangshan is located in the middle of a lake, those Liangshan heroes know how to water, and most of them actually don't know water.
If you are driven to the river, if you don't want to be drowned, you can only surrender.
When the heavy armored soldiers came to the main village of Zengtou City, many soldiers and horses inside were urgently mobilized to prepare to garrison and resist.
Hundreds of strong men beside Wang Xiao stepped forward, holding torches in one hand and a black iron lump about the size of Keju in the other.
Lighting the rope on the iron lump with torches, these selected strong men struggled to throw the black ball at the wall of the village.
The people in Liangshan at the head of the city looked at the black ball that was still coming up in confusion, and Song Jiang's brother Song Qing also curiously picked up one and looked at it in his hand.
As the fire rope burned to the end, the black ball exploded directly.
Although I couldn't get a musket and artillery, I could get black powder in the prosperous Song Dynasty of Taoism, and then make it into a primitive and simple grenade.
This kind of grenade is very simple, it is to cast an iron shell, and put black powder and iron nails and gravel and other miscellaneous materials into it in proportion. Just use the fire rope to ignite the explosion.
When it comes to power, it's really not much lethality, it's more of a sound, light, and pyrotechnic effect.
As long as it is not like Song Qing, he directly holds it in his hand and puts it in front of his eyes to look at it, at most he will be injured, and the chance of being killed by the explosion is not great. The effect is more used for psychological blows.
After all, the power of home-made black powder is not enough, and the charge is too small.
More than 100 black balls exploded, and the scattered debris immediately made the vicinity wail.
Looking at the fire and smoke of the large group, the defenders on the head of the village were frightened, and the ghosts cried wolf and shouted, "There is witchcraft!" The official army has a demon law! ”
"Find Black Dog Blood!"
"As soon as the Qingdao chief is not here, this is over!"
At this time, not to mention the blood of black dogs in Zengtou City, even black dogs could not be found. Yesterday the city of Zengtou was breached, and all the living creatures in it except people were slaughtered and eaten.
As for Gongsun Sheng, after Song Jiang went up the mountain, he saw that Liangshan was about to finish, and he ran away under the pretext of going home to visit his mother.
"Leader Song is dead!"
Song Qing took the black ball to his face and observed, and when it exploded, it exploded directly a few centimeters away from his nose.
No matter how weak this primordial grenade was, it was enough to kill him.
In the midst of this chaos, the word that the Song leader was dead soon spread throughout Zhuangzi.
The defenders' little will to resist suddenly collapsed, and they didn't think about resisting anymore, and they all fled like crazy.
Chao Gai, who heard the news, was overjoyed and immediately ran faster.
Looking at the fire and smoke rising above the village, Wang Xiao snorted.
It's so primitive, like a big firecracker. We have to continue to improve.
More than a dozen armor soldiers rushed out carrying a log, and it only took one moment to knock the gate of Zengtou City open.
This gate was breached yesterday, and it is useless to repair it temporarily.
Wang Xiao waved his hand forward, "Kill in, and when you see everyone standing, cut down for me!" ”
