921.Battle of Kuizhou (4)
In front of the New Song Army, many cavalry fell off their horses.
It's just that their serpentine array can not only effectively avoid the bombardment, but at the same time, it also has the effect of restraining the Divine Dragon Gun.
After all, the dragon can't fight cattle across the mountains.
Liu Zijun, Xiao Yulin and others observed with binoculars in the army, but their faces were still not good-looking.
Especially when they saw the countless New Song Dynasty hot air balloons at the head of the city, even they had to sweat for the defenders on the city.
Xiao Yulin said: "Commander Liu, there are so many hot air balloons in the New Song Army, even with the help of our Flying Battalion, I am afraid that the robes of the Kuizhou garrison will be difficult to deal with......"
Liu Zijun nodded with a fixed face, "It's a pity that the cupola cannon in our army is not in the city now." ”
As he spoke, a fine light flashed in his eyes, "Why don't we send elite soldiers with skyrocketing cannons to rush to the city first?" ”
"It's not easy."
Xiao Yulin said: "I'm afraid these hot air balloons in the new Song Dynasty won't let our Feitian Camp hot air balloons come close to the city." How could the troops on the ground let us break through so easily? ”
He looked ahead, "There are only a hundred cupola cannons in our various forbidden armies, if something happens on the way to break through." The two of us won't be able to deal with these new Song Army hot air balloons. ”
This made Liu Zijun's brows furrow even tighter.
The grenadiers and cupola cannons are extremely powerful, and they are naturally treasures in the army.
If these two firearms were taken away by the New Song Army, although the New Song Army might not use them immediately, it would still greatly reduce the strength of the Great Song Forbidden Army.
Without a cupola, what to use to block the hot air balloon?
Liu Zijun wanted to send the cupola cannon to the city, not impossible, but ...... Too risky.
Xiao Yulin looked at the front again, and sighed: "Let's take another look, it is safer to defeat the two armies of Qilin and Longyou first, and then rush into the city." ”
Liu Zijun nodded and stopped talking.
The manufacturing method of the hot air balloon that was removed by Qin Han was indeed a great loss for Da Song.
If it weren't for this, the Great Song Dynasty had unique hot air balloons and grenadiers, and even in the face of the elite troops of the New Song Dynasty such as Qilin and Longyou, they could easily win.
It doesn't make any sense to just say that now.
The cavalry of the Qilin and Longyou armies finally rushed to the front of the Great Song Forbidden Army with guns and beams.
"Collect the shield!"
"Heavy Cavalry Charge!"
Liu Zijun and others gave military orders.
The flag waved on the women's car.
The shieldmen in front of the formation retreated towards the middle of the formation.
The heavy cavalry of Tianxiong and Tianjie charged forward with knight spears, shouting to meet the New Song cavalry.
Only facing the tide of the New Song cavalry, just the heavy cavalry of the two armies really seemed a little weak.
"Light Cavalry Attack!"
Liu Zijun and others ordered again.
In front of the two armies, the soldiers of the Great Song Light Cavalry also rushed out.
Only the foot soldiers were left in place.
The shield-bearers stood in front of the footmen.
Everyone knows that although the light and heavy iron cavalry is strong, it is impossible to stop the tens of thousands of New Song Dynasty troops.
The dozens of military formations of Qilin and Longyou were scattered too widely. They have many military formations, which can completely avoid the obstacles of the iron cavalry of Tianxiong and Tianjie.
And these people, naturally, will still attack the military formation.
In front of the formation, the grenadiers and cupola gunners carried the grenadiers and cupola and withdrew in front of the shield soldiers.
After lowering the grenadiers, they still fired at the surging New Song army.
The Great Song Dynasty light and heavy iron cavalry totaled less than 10,000 people, divided into several units, and collided violently with the New Song cavalry.
There was chaos in the wilderness ahead.
Brother Qi, Luo Silent, Monto and other generals all led the light and heavy iron cavalry to rush and kill.
The Great Song Heavy Cavalry had the advantage of armor and knight spears, and when they met the New Song Dynasty cavalry, they instantly rushed the New Song Dynasty cavalry to the back.
Light cavalry also relied on the advantage of armor to gain the upper hand.
Not to mention the two special forces of the Lion Regiment and the Dragon Lance Regiment commanded by Brother Qi and Luo Silent respectively.
It's just that although they are unstoppable, they only block about half of the small army formation of the New Song Army after all. There are still many New Song army formations around, and they are rushing towards the infantry formation in a long snake.
This is the superiority in troops.
Although in the end, it will probably be difficult for the two armies of Qilin and Longyou to swallow the two armies of Tianxiong and Tianjie, but it is not difficult for them to stop the two armies.
And now what is unfavorable for the Song army is that it is difficult to hold the head of the city of Kuizhou.
This also means that Xiao Yulin and Liu Zijun can't entangle with the New Song Army outside the city for too long.
At present, the Tiger Ben, Antlers, Xiong Howling and other armies in the ground forces of the New Song Dynasty have not yet moved, and the Earthquake Army alone has already posed a great threat to the head of Kuizhou City. If they can't enter the city in time, and the city of Kuizhou will be destroyed by then, then it will be too late. Fighting in the city, Kuizhou Mansion will be devastated, not to mention that it will be a war of attrition to destroy the tens of thousands of troops of the New Song Dynasty.
Looking at the new Song army that rushed over under artillery fire and bullets, Liu Zijun and Xiao Yulin's brows were always slightly furrowed.
The morale of these New Song Dynasty troops is stronger than those miscellaneous Dali troops under the command of Chi Fenggu, and it is not so easy to deal with.
At this time, the hot air balloons in the two armies also approached the sky above Kuizhou Capital.
On the way, they threw down a lot of thunderbolts and killed many New Song Dynasty soldiers.
Most of the hot air balloons of the New Song Army were divided into hot air balloons to meet the two armies.
This greatly reduced the pressure on the hot-air balloons of the Kuizhou City garrison and the soldiers at the head of the city.
The hot air balloons in the garrison of Kuizhou Mansion are blocked outside the city, and finally there is no need to face so many hot air balloons in the New Song Dynasty. At present, although the Xinsong hot air balloon is still several times their size, it can barely support it with the support of the cupola fire below.
Only losses, or not small.
Hot air balloons are constantly falling to the ground in the air.
And after falling to the ground, it often erupts into flames.
It was a thunderbolt exploding inside the gondola.
It's a pity that the soldiers in the hot air balloon have no chance of surviving such an explosion.
The hot air balloons in the Tianxiong and Tianjie armies also launched a confrontation when they were extremely close to the Xinsong hot air balloons. Hot air balloons on both sides fell downward.
In such an aerial battle, you can't see blood splashing, but the degree of tragedy is really not under the ground forces.
Liu Zijun, Xiao Yulin and others are naturally heartbroken.
The soldiers on the hot air balloon are all forbidden soldiers. This is not something that the soldiers of the New Song Army can compare.
But for now, they can't do anything.
If you want to enter the city, you need to defeat the two armies of Qilin and Longyou. Then the army carried the momentum of the rainbow, and it was possible to drive straight in.
The drums in the army were thundering.
The drums were not an actual order, but only a morale boost.
As soon as the drums fell, the military formations of the Qilin and Longyou armies that had avoided the iron cavalry of the forbidden army had finally arrived in front of the infantry army.
There were cavalry, and there were foot soldiers.
The cavalry charged straight at the formation with a very fast rush.
The grenadiers retreated into formation.
"Drink!"
The shieldmen and pikemen in the front row shouted in unison, their weights sinking, their legs tied up.
"Ahh
"Ahh
Endless screams.
The New Song cavalry collided with the shield soldiers in front of the infantry formation.
There were horses and knights pierced by spears.
At the same time, there were also shield soldiers who were knocked backwards by their horses.
There was a sudden loss on both sides.
The Forbidden Dragons kept firing in the back.
There were also soldiers who kept throwing thunderbolts in front of them.
Only this is mutual.
There was also thunder in the New Song Army.
In the smoke and dust that burst out, the entire battlefield gradually became chaotic.
The military formations of the New Song Army seem to be scattered, but with thousands of people in the company, the real combat effectiveness is actually quite cohesive.
After fighting with the forbidden infantry in close combat, they all rushed towards the command center in the formation.
This made Liu Zijun and Xiao Yulin show a slight surprise in their eyes.
Is this to be decapitated?
Although they have not yet seen too conspicuous masters in the New Song Army, from the overall situation, the New Song Army obviously has such a meaning.
The two were even more curious about who the new Song Army coach was.
This guy was really much trickier than any of the New Song generals they had met before.
And it's a lot more mysterious.
The New Song Dynasty and the Great Song Dynasty have been fighting on Kuizhou Road for so long, but they still haven't been able to find out the identity of that guy.
However, the beheading operation of the Great Song Army is very skillful, and he also has a way to deal with it.
At that moment, Liu Zijun, Xiao Yulin and others all changed into ordinary soldier armor and hid in the army.
This is not to say that they are afraid that the New Song Army will immediately come to the front, but it is just a precaution.
At the same time, there are also military masters and sharpshooters who are moving closer to the command center.
