Chapter 129: An Earth-shattering explosion
"Ahem......"
Qin Chuan coughed up a mouthful of mud and sand, covered his buzzing head, and struggled to pull half of his body out of a hemp bag filled with sand.
The air was filled with the pungent smell of burning black powder, mixed with the smell of burnt meat, and the eyes were filled with smoke, and the grain carts could be seen in the distance, and people who did not know whether they were dead or alive could be seen in the distance.
Moans and wails can be heard everywhere, many of which are familiar.
Qin Chuan held a crooked grain cart, shook his head, and shouted with difficulty: "Emperor Guan's army listens to the order, and all those who hear the order get up immediately." ”
"Lao Huang, Bobcat, where did you die? Where are the three shots of Zhao Wuliao? ”
"What about people?"
"Where did the death go? Come out quickly. ”
"The big boss, I'm here, and Lao Huang is also here......"
Qin Chuan shouted for a while, and finally two heads full of mud and sand poked out from under the car of a grain truck next to him, one big and one small, the small one stared at the scattered eyes and tried to find Qin Chuan in the thick smoke, and the big one grinned with two big yellow teeth and kept spitting out sand.
"Steward, I'm here."
Qin Chuan suddenly felt a squirm under his feet, and when he looked down, he realized that he was stepping on someone's chest.
Beside him, under a pile of sacks, there was a man shouting something in Mongolian.
"Get up, get up, quick, some brothers are buried, get up quickly and dig people."
Qin Chuan barely regained some of his senses, and hurriedly opened the pile of tattered marijuana bags and dragged the grizzled Batu out of it.
Those who had regained consciousness also rose up and began to dig up sacks.
It didn't take long for everyone to dig it out, Qin Chuan roughly clicked it, there were no fewer people, but three died, two were buried by mud and sand, and the other had a sharp wooden strip inserted in his chest.
More than 30 were injured, most of them were smashed by the grain truck when it overturned, or were bounced by the wood that jumped out.
There were also more than a dozen Guandi Mountains on the east and west sides, and the clothes of the Mongols and captives in the middle of the car formation were blown everywhere, and many people were blown out of the distance.
Fan Sanpao, who was tied to the stake, only had a pair of tattered bottoms left, and dozens of small blood spots were densely packed with broken stones on his white and chubby body, and he was wailing heartbreakingly.
The more than 1,000 war horses and the mules and horses used to pull the carts were two or three hundred, and I don't know whether they were dead or alive, and many mules and horses broke free from their reins and were running back and forth in the chariot formation.
Seeing this scene, Qin Chuan was annoyed and scolded himself for being stupid.
He originally thought that the power of black powder would not be too great, so he piled thousands of catties there, but he didn't expect the power to be so great.
Only now, he realized that he had missed one thing, whether it was black powder or explosives from later generations, when it exploded, it would cause the volume of gas to expand dramatically, thus releasing a huge amount of energy.
No matter how powerful black powder is, it is also a kind of explosive gunpowder, although the twenty grain carts loaded with black powder are some distance from each other, but the expansion of the gas volume caused by continuous explosions can still create great power.
If it weren't for a car wall to resist and a pile of earth to reinforce, his more than 100 imperial troops would have been here.
If all the gunpowder were piled on the same grain cart and detonated at the same time, it is estimated that everyone present would die.
There must have been quite a few deaths by now.
Qin Chuan stood up, climbed into a barely intact grain cart, and looked ahead.
I saw that the smoke that gradually dispersed in the north wind was full of broken arms and bodies, and only occasionally a few intact corpses were seen, and there were wails and moans from the far end of the north and the car formations on both sides.
Lao Huang, Bobcat, Zhao Wu, Liao Sangun, Batu and others also stood up one after another, opened their mouths wide, and stared blankly at the tragic scene in front of them.
Even the old bandits of Jiuji Mountain, Zhao Wu and others, who were accustomed to life and death, couldn't help but be moved.
This place is like a purgatory.
"Go and call those Mongols, let them go out and find a way to live, give them a good chance with a serious knife, and if there is any hope of survival, leave them alive first."
"Zhao Wu, Liao Sangun, you take fifty people to the west side with me, Batu takes fifty people to the east side, first solve the Jiannu on both sides, Lao Huang is a lynx, you also take fifty people to collect the horses, pick three hundred war horses to bring over, and we will chase and kill Jiannu in a while."
As he spoke, Qin Chuan lifted the long knife on the ground, shook his head again, and walked crookedly towards the west car formation.
There were originally a hundred tartars on the Shihu Liang on the east side, shooting arrows down the slope, when the big explosion, most of them were shaken down the foot of the mountain, the bad luck fell and broke the hand and leg, and even a life, and the lucky one also fell to the flesh and eight vegetarians, and could not get up for half a day.
The Jiannu and Tartars on the west side were not so good either, because most of them rushed into the car formation stupidly, and with a bang, most of the people who were close to the north side were shaken away, and those who were far away were all knocked to the ground.
Only those who remained outside the formation, and those who stood on the gentle slope and fired arrows, were able to escape.
Most of the Guan Emperor troops led by Li Dingliang and Liu Youzhu fell down in time, except for a few who were inseparable from Jiannu and couldn't lie down by Zhenfei, the others were fine.
The first to get up was also Emperor Guan's army, and after being stunned for a while, Li Dingliang and Liu Youzhu copied the knife and killed those Jiannu and Tartar who were still dizzy.
Soon, the camp and the Jiannu and the Tartars on the gentle slope ran wildly and climbed up desperately, and the Tartars on the stone wall ridge on the east side also turned around and ran.
A quarter of an hour later, Lao Huang and Bobcat and others brought 300 calmed war horses, Qin Chuan led Liu Youzhu, Li Dingliang, Zhao Wuliao, three guns, etc., a total of 300 people, stepped on the war horses, and chased after the Jiannu and Tartars who fled in the wilderness.
Those who remained carefully cleaned the battlefield, sparing a recognizable head, or mounted their horses in search of the enemy's scattered horses.
……
Fan San ran away early, he was far away from the two hundred courtyards, he was not affected by the explosion, and before the smoke cleared, he rode his horse to the north, only hating that he didn't have a pair of wings.
He didn't expect that the warriors of the Dajin Kingdom would be finished.
The white flag of Meler Ezhen Ahsan was also finished, and he saw with his own eyes that Ahsan was thrown off his horse by a wooden plank, and then he did not move.
Most of them were overturned to the ground, and even flew out by the shock, and they couldn't get up for a long time, only wailing heart-rending on the ground, and they were probably all injured.
The ones that are close are even worse, and probably can't even find the corpses.
The four hundred warriors of the Golden Kingdom, and the four hundred warriors of the Horqin tribe, are over.
In the end, it is estimated that less than a hundred escaped.
As soon as he thought of the sky-high flame, Fan San couldn't help but shudder.
He just wanted to send the remaining 3,000 catties of grain and 100 carts of iron tools to Guihua City as soon as possible, and then make a detour back to Zhangjiakou Fort.
He never wanted to come to this place again.
The one surnamed Qin...... He didn't want to see him again.
As for his son, I don't know whether he is dead or alive, if he is not dead, he still has to be redeemed, and 3,000 stone of grain is 3,000 stone, which is his own son.
……
At noon, Qin Chuan led Emperor Guan's army to continue the journey, carrying grain to the east.
Nearly 100 Guan Imperial soldiers were killed in this battle, and more than 40 were seriously wounded, and a large part of them may not survive Lou Fu.
The Mongols suffered more than 50 casualties, which was originally not many, and the casualty rate was higher than that of Emperor Guan's army.
The casualties were mainly concentrated on the west side, some of the Jiannu and Tartars stayed on the gentle slope and fired arrows from top to bottom to suppress, and some rushed down to engage in hand-to-hand combat with the Guan Di army, as Qin Chuan expected, the combat power of the Guan Di army was far inferior to the other party, fortunately, Li Dingliang and Liu Youzhu led a dozen or so Jiujishan old bandits to rush back and forth, so they barely maintained the situation.
More than 20 horses and mules were killed by the shock of life, dozens of them were crippled, and countless people went crazy, and they barely quieted down after more than an hour.
This was the heaviest battle in which Emperor Guan's army suffered the heaviest casualties after Zhang Kewang and Guo Yan, Wang Gangbao, and the fifth enemy attacked Mengjiazhuang.
Coupled with the two battles of Qingshuihe and Shishiliang, there have been a full 130 Guan Emperor soldiers killed, and if you add those who are seriously injured and can't survive, the final death toll may reach more than 16.
It is estimated that more than 30 people will be disabled due to injuries, and these people will have to be transferred to internal affairs, or even do any work.
No matter what kind of cripple they become, Qin Chuan will always support these people.
Although the casualties were large, the captures were also large.
In this battle, about 700 people were killed, killed and injured by Jiannu and Tartars, and more than 300 were killed by the first car wall on the front alone.
Less than a hundred people were able to escape, and six hundred heads were cut off who could barely make out their faces and mouths, and the rest of the heads had been blown to shreds and could not be formed at all.
The vast majority of the opponents dismounted and fought on foot, and the horses left behind were not killed, but were so frightened that they were scurrying around, and Qin Chuan sent people to go out more than ten miles to collect them, and brought back more than 400 horses in total.
The armor rate of Jiannu and Tartar is between three and forty percent, and there are more than 300 pieces of armor of various kinds, but most of them have been blown up beyond recognition, and even difficult to repair, and in the end, only one hundred and twenty pieces of cotton armor that can still be worn are singled out, and thirty-five pairs of various types of iron armor are singled out.
Most of the intact iron and cotton armor were contributed by the forty Bayalas.
These Bayalas were the only people who survived the frontal battlefield, so they were first discovered by the Guan Di army.
At the same time, there was also a big surprise, after the Kim Jong White Flag Melle Ezhen Ilgen Kyaw Luo Ashan.
This guy was knocked unconscious by a wooden plank, and Guan Dijun tied him tightly before he woke up.
Qin Chuan didn't have the heart to chat with this Houjin general, he was studying where to enter the customs and return to Daming.
After entering the customs, you will definitely encounter the obstruction of the Ming army, and how to deal with it at that time.
Especially in Ningwuguan, there are only two roads back to Loufu, one is to enter Lan County through Lanzhou, this road must not be taken, there are too many big families who hate him to the core.
The second road is to go south through Ningwuguan, passing through Ninghua Qianhusuo and Jingle County on the way.
The danger is not great, but he is afraid that Ning Wuguan will not let him pass.
