Chapter 1003 (2)
The landing point is a hundred steps away, and the Rong Mi army is divided into two sections, and the Rong Mi army in the first half is only about 1,000 people. Jiang Anyong and He Xigui took the opportunity to lead their troops to counterattack, and they were superior in numbers, and Rong Mi's army soon retreated. Kotov's troops quickly plunged into the battlefield, separating the two armies with a shield wall.
The horns of Zheng Jun and Rong Mijun sounded almost simultaneously, and Jiang Anyi and Bei Qisi gave the order to attack at the same time. With the help of the horse's momentum, the scimitar cut into the ** lightly, the blood splashed, dyeing the gravel reddish-brown, the roar and the neighing of the horse could not hide the cry of pain, and the air was filled with a strong fishy smell......
After the Moon Killing Knife devoured blood, it emitted a faint flush, Jiang Anyi calmly swung the knife, the knife light passed, and the limbs were broken and bloody. The dozens of guards around him were all brave, following the main general's side like sharp blades cutting through the Rong Mi army.
Pei Qi Si ordered: "Thick can be more, you lead people to block that Zheng army." ”
Chou Keduo led the personal guards to meet Jiang Anyi, the two knives met, the sparks collapsed, Jiang Anyi was entangled by Chou Keduo, it was difficult to get rid of for a while, and his personal guards were also blocked by Rong Mi's personal guards, and the blade was stuck in a blunt place.
Beys gave orders one after another, and the numerical superiority of the Rong Mi army was gradually reflected. After a fierce battle for more than half an hour, Hu Rui was a little impatient and asked: "The Zheng army is already at a disadvantage, and I can't see what new weapons they have, can they send out heavy horses?" ”
In Bei Qisi's view, although Zheng Jun is at a disadvantage, he is full of resilience, and behind him is Xiaozhen, which can be defended by relying on the town. But he did not dare to disobey the order of the lord of the country, so he had to give the order to blow the horn, and the heavy cavalry, which was resting two miles away, began to attack.
Feeling the tremor of the earth, Jiang Anyi knew that the heavy cavalry of the Rong Mi army had attacked, and Zhang Keji took his place in command in the Zheng army, and according to the prior agreement, the gong was sounded and retreated. Zheng Jun retreated like a tide, and Hu Rui laughed and said: "Zheng Ren knows that a catastrophe is coming, so he gave an order to kill Jiang Anyi and promote him to the rank of General Jinhu, with a reward of 10,000 taels." ”
The last time he invaded and occupied half of Huazhou, Hu Rui became famous in the countries of the Western Regions, as if he had a unique meaning, but the merit was defeated in the hands of Jiang Anyi, Hu Rui hated Jiang Anyi to the core, and now all kinds of predicaments in Rong Mi's country have come because of this, as long as he can kill Jiang Anyi and re-enter Huazhou, he will regain his prestige and lead Rong Mi to become the strongest in the Western Regions again.
Rong Mi rode heavily in black armor, and the black weight pressed towards the Zheng army like a piece of iron, and the other Rong Mi troops flashed on both sides, avoiding the way of the heavy cavalry charge. He looked at Zheng Zhen nervously, knowing that the heavy cavalry was the hope of him, the lord of the country, and even the entire Rong Mi country, and if there was an accident, it would be unpredictable.
Seeing that Zheng Jun did not have the intention of retreating back to Xiaozhen, Bei Qisi's heart sank, could it be that Zheng Jun still had any new weapons to deal with the heavy cavalry. Hu Rui looked excited beside him, and kept muttering in his mouth: "Rush back, tear the Zheng people to pieces, and be ashamed of the king, rush quickly." ”
Years of experience gave him a sense of foreboding, and he said to Hu Rui: "King, Zheng Jun sees that the heavy cavalry is still stable, and it seems to be leaning on something, so he must be guarded against. ”
Although Hu Rui was anxious to be ashamed, Bei Qisi's reminder also made him feel that something was wrong, and said: "Order the flying camel heavy cavalry to retreat, and let the two thousand war horses continue to rush forward." ”
The horn sounded to convey the order, and the flying camel heavy cavalry that rushed forward heard the order to stop the pursuit, and at this time the heavy cavalry was still more than 200 steps away from the Zheng array. Seeing that the flying camel heavy ride stopped, Jiang An said hatefully: "It's a pity, half the work, let the flying camel heavy ride escape." ”
Zhang Keji said: "How can things be as good as they should be, and it is not bad to be able to annihilate the thousands of heavy horses in front of you." ”
The horn sounded, and Zheng Bing, who was defending with shields and guns in front, stepped back, revealing dozens of catapults behind him. Hu Rui and Bei Qi Si had already climbed the wooden platform to watch the battle, and when they saw the catapult exposed in the Zheng army's formation, Hu Rui smiled dumbly and said, "Isn't it a joke that the Zheng people actually want to use the catapult to block the heavy cavalry." This king knows that Jiang Anyi won a fluke with an improved catapult in Huazhou last time, and this time he wants to repeat the old tricks, which is really stupid. ”
Even if a hundred pounds of stones are smashed on the body, it can only make the heavy rider injured, and although the improved catapult throws a lot of stones, the damage to the heavy rider is almost not counted, but the Zheng people are really poor.
Yapore is the general of the silver protection of the Rong Mi Kingdom, and was selected into the heavy cavalry four years ago and became the general of the 2,000 heavy cavalry, and Yapore knew that his opportunity to become the golden protector had come. The five thousand heavy cavalry created by the lord of the country exhausted the national strength can not be an ornament, today's decisive battle with the Zheng army, the heavy cavalry is the magic weapon to defeat the enemy, as long as the Zheng army in front of him is defeated, and he will be promoted to gold protection after the fact.
Zheng Jun exposed the catapult, a smile appeared on his face under the Yapo hot iron mask, the catapult came to deal with the heavy cavalry, how stupid is the main general of Zheng Jun, even if he is hit by a stone in the front, he can damage a few heavy horses. Yapo raised his hand to signal the horsemen to be careful, and hurriedly urged the horses to rush forward, and the two thousand heavy horsemen rushed towards the Zheng army like an iron stream, no more than a hundred paces apart.
"Put", an order, countless clay pots rose into the air, this improved catapult is lighter, one person can push, the range is only 100 steps, but through the improvement of 100 engineering, the accuracy is greatly improved.
Huazhou is rich in honey fruits, and a number of clay pot industries have emerged, and hundreds of scientific research have produced fire bombs, and clay pots have become the best thing to hold. Jiang Anyi once used fire bombs to throw tung oil in clay pots during the attack on Hongliuhe Town, but the price of tung oil was too high, and the cost of using it on the battlefield was too great, even with the wealth of Huazhou, it was difficult to consume.
Li Laigao learned from Park Tianhao's mouth that the Western Regions are rich in a kind of black oil in stone, which smells bad and is as viscous as lacquer, and can burn, so he even thought of replacing tung oil with black oil in stone. After repeated experiments, Li Laigao distilled and refined a very flammable fire oil from this black oil, mixed with black oil, and then added sulfur, phosphorus powder and other substances to it, which can spontaneously combust in the air, Li Laigao called it a fire bomb.
Because the fire bombs are extremely unstable and may spontaneously combust if they are not careful, when Jiang Anyi transported this batch of ordnance from Huazhou, the fire oil, black oil, sulfur, and phosphorus powder were transported in a sealed large pottery jar, and they were temporarily assembled into small jars in Xiaozhen.
The clay pot shattered on Rong Mi's body or on the ground, and a pungent smell permeated the air. Japore had just slashed through a clay pot with his scimitar, his entire right hand was wet and uncomfortable, and the armor on his right arm was splashed with liquid.
Zheng Jun poisoned, Yapo Re's heart flashed thoughts, and shouted loudly: "Try to dodge, hold your breath, and rush over and you'll be fine." ”
As soon as the words fell, his right hand was hot, and the black thing sticking to his hand and knife actually burst into flames, and in the blink of an eye, flames rose, and his entire right arm was covered in flames. Japore screamed in shock, threw away the knife in his hand, and slapped the flames with his left hand, but his left hand stuck to the thing, and even his left palm burned.
Almost at the same time, flames rose up, and the body of the heavy rider, the ground it passed, the raging fire almost surrounded the entire heavy rider in it. In the midst of the flames, the heavy horses rushed into chaos, and from time to time the horses neighed to the ground, and the heavy horses fell from their horses and fell to the ground, and the ground was also on fire, and in a moment there were countless casualties.
On the high platform, Hu Rui was so shocked that he almost didn't sit on the ground, and his hands grabbed the wooden railing on the platform, barely supporting his body. This heavy horse was built by Pythius, and it took him a lot of effort, and his heart was like a knife when he saw his subordinates struggling to escape for their lives in the flames. Some of the heavy horsemen rushed out of the fire array, fleeing towards the great formation with fire all over their bodies, and Pedes knew that they could not be allowed to rush into the formation, or the whole army would be frustrated. The horn gave the command, causing the routed heavy cavalry to dodge to the sides.
Seeing that the Zheng camp on the opposite side began to prepare for an attack, and Rong Mijun was frightened and at a loss, Bei Qisi knew that the battle had been lost, and said to Hu Rui: "King, the Zheng army is about to counterattack, our army's spirit has been lost, and I ask the king to order the troops to be collected." ”
Hu Rui looked at the raging fire not far away, and could no longer see the struggling heavy horseman, and said in frustration: "Collect the troops." ”
Jiang Anyi led the Zheng army to chase and kill for a while, but the Pei Qi Si was well defended and retreated, and the Zheng army did not reap any benefits, and Jiang Anyi also ordered a return.
Xiaozhen Marshal's Mansion, the generals' eyebrows are dancing, today's fire bomb is extremely powerful, so that many people are willing to put down a heart that is hanging, and everyone surrounds Li Lai and praises non-stop. Li Laigao smiled, this happiness is not comparable to dance and ink.
After taking the seat, Zhang Keji whispered to Jiang Anyi: "Lord, strike while the iron is hot, go to the camp tonight, and completely crush the hopes of the Rong Mi people." ”
Seeing the power of the fire bomb, when Jiang Anyi announced that he was preparing to rob the camp at night, all the generals asked for battle, joking, who does not want to go to the battle that is almost destined to win, winning the battle means war merits, and being knighted by virtue of military merits is a unique promotion path for military generals, which is far beyond the reach of Wenchen, that is, Wei Yi Shen Wei Xiang of the year, and he was also changed to Bo Feng Hou when he was Zhishi, and Jiang Anyi was only thirty years old by virtue of his military exploits.
…………
The Zheng army was jubilant, but the Rong Mi army was gloomy, the two thousand heavy cavalry only came back 478 cavalry, and the five thousand heavy cavalry lost one-third just after the battle, the tiger sharp face sank like water, and the heart was like a knife cut, Zheng Jun's new armament that could spontaneously combust almost ruined the possibility of Rong Mi's victory. In Hu Rui's heart, he has already begun to plan to return to China, and if he can retain the remaining more than 3,000 cavalry and troops to return, at least he can control the domestic situation in Rong Mi Country.
The atmosphere in the king's tent was dull, and no one was silent. He said in a low voice: "My lord, I just saw the burned sergeant, and the fire bomb thrown by Zheng Jun is like stone paint. This kind of stone lacquer is also available in China, and Zheng Jun can develop it in China. In time, our army will have one more weapon for victory. ”
Hu Rui nodded, and said strongly: "There is no such stone paint in Zheng Guoguo, this king knows that there are a few places in the Gobi, but unfortunately the Gobi is controlled by the Zheng people now, otherwise Zheng Jun has no stone paint, and there is no rice to cook." After returning home, the king will have people develop this kind of fire bomb as well, and this kind of ordnance is really powerful. ”
Thinking of those heavy riders struggling in the fire, Hu Rui shuddered, this was burned alive. Hu Rui said: "Immediately pull out the camp and return to China." ”
