Chapter 57: Desperate Slaughter

Checole grabbed the horse's head and shouted, "Dismount!" Array! ”

Xue Yantuo's soldiers who came later dismounted one after another and slowly formed a formation on the frozen riverbed.

Checkler rode on his horse, looking at the array that was gradually becoming more and more neat, and there was a glimmer of hope in his heart.

The Tang people's gun array is too lethal to the Hu cavalry, although because of the lack of mobility ability, they can only be passively beaten in the face of the Hu cavalry, but in the same way, the Hu cavalry has no way to deal with this kind of hedgehog-like tactics.

He planned to use his own way to deal with the cavalry of the Tang army, using the tactics of infantry formation, which the Tang army was best at......

He is not afraid of the mysterious weapon that the Tang army blew up the city wall, Xue Yantuo is not a fool standing there obediently waiting for you to blow up, but he is afraid of the kind of courgette-like thing that the Tang army will still bombard everywhere after it is ignited in his hand...... That kind of noise and smoke was tantamount to a fierce tiger beast to the war horses of the Xue Yantuo people, and it was enough to scare the war horses into running out of control, resulting in a complete defeat.

It was enough not to expect to defeat the Tang army, as long as it could delay the speed of its surprise attack, so that the mountain tent of the Yu Overseer army could have enough time to be arranged.

Checkler glanced around, and sadness rose in his heart.

He knew that after this battle, the soldiers here were afraid that half of them would be lost, and the rest would have to escape from the pursuit of the Tang army.

What is particularly important is that the Tang army cannot be led to the Bayegu, Fugu and other departments......

You don't even have to wait for the Tang army to kill all these soldiers, you just need to wait until the war horses are eaten, and you will die of hunger on the moraine.

From the time he reined in his war horse and formed a formation on the spot to block the attack, this elite soldier guarding Wuchuan Town was doomed to a tragic fate.

Hoofs rumble in the distance.

The Tang army in black and red armor suddenly jumped into view in the wind and snow, the crimson flag flew fiercely in the wind, and thousands of horses and thousands of troops galloped forward, and the momentum was violent!

Even the ice on the riverbed of the Nuozhen River under his feet was trembling slightly.

Chekole stood on the embankment on the north bank, drew the saber at his waist, raised his arms and shouted: "We can't let the Tang army drive straight into the tooth tent of Yu Overseer Mountain, where are our wives and children, family members, cattle and sheep!" We lined up here, using the blood and courage of our Xue Yantuo warriors to block the Tang army's advance and drive them back to Monan! ”

"Hurry back to Monan!"

"Hurry back to Monan!"

In all directions, the soldiers raised their arms and shouted, and the sluggish morale finally improved a little, and they were still ready to fight.

Checkler breathed a sigh of relief, if the morale was still as low as when he fled just now, he was afraid that he would not be able to stop a charge from the Tang army......

*****

Xue Rengui took the lead and rode at the forefront of the army.

The cold north wind mixed with snowflakes rushed towards the face, hitting the face like a knife.

But he didn't feel the slightest cold, and the boiling blood in his chest made his fighting spirit raging, and his whole body was hot!

In the past, he also exterminated pirates among the sailors, and even fought against thieves in the South China Sea, but as the most traditional soldier, at this moment, he rode his horse and whipped to chase the death and chase the north, that is the longing that penetrates in his bones!

Horse leather shroud, get it!

For all the sons and daughters of the Han family, Wei Qing and Huo Qubing in the past, and Li Jing and Li Ji today are their most admired idols.

Feng Wolf Juxu, Le Shi Yanran, is the supreme merit of generations of Han soldiers!

In his life, he can ride a horse in the northern frontier and whip at Dragon City, even if he dies, what does it matter? !

What's more, this battle went smoothly, as soon as he came out of the white road, he destroyed the withered and decayed Wuchuan Town, which was guarding the gateway to Mobei, and the soldiers were bloodless, the horses were not spinning, chasing the footsteps of the Xue Yantuo people all the way towards Yu Du Jun Mountain!

The world's great feats are just around the corner, who can not be enthusiastic and warlike?

The people of Xue Yantuo in front of him actually didn't escape......

Xue Rengui had a cautious temperament, opened his hand to signal the whole army to slow down, and slowly approached the Nuozhen River channel. When he got closer, he saw Xue Yantuo's people lined up in a neat array, sword and shield hands, and spearmen standing like a forest, and the entire military town was murderous, not only a little dazed.

Is this a plan to use the Tang Army's infantry array to fight against the Tang Army's iron cavalry?

Xue Rengui not only smiled.

If it was a different time, maybe the cavalry would really be helpless with this kind of tight infantry array that was not afraid of impact for a while, after all, the commander ordered that the soldiers were very fast, and they could not give the Xue Yantuo people any time to react, and they should rush to deal with them when their scouts did not respond after returning to Yu Du Jun Mountain to report the news, and the thunder swept the hole!

This means that the vanguard troops led by Xue Rengui will be pushed all the way through, and no matter how many people are in the way, they will be completely smashed and defeated in one fell swoop!

Truth be told, it's hard.

After all, this is Xue Yantuo's territory, and they occupy the geographical advantages, people, and will definitely do everything possible to obstruct them and slow down the march of the Tang army.

But now......

A cruel smile appeared on the corner of Xue Rengui's mouth, and he said loudly: "The musketeers dismount, the sword and shield hands are in front, meet the battle!" ”

"No!"

The soldiers of the Tang army jumped off their horses one after another, quickly completed the formation, and one by one the fighting spirit was raging, and their morale skyrocketed!

If the cavalry broke the infantry array of Xue Yantuo's army, it would indeed take a lot of brains, not only to suffer heavy casualties, but also to consume a lot of time.

In the face of the hedgehog-like infantry array, it can only be gnawed down layer by layer, and it cannot be defeated in one fell swoop.

But now there are musketeers......

Under the cover of the sword and shield men, the musketeers finished their formation with the two armies, and then listened to the sound of the horns in the rear, and slowly advanced with uniform steps.

When they reached the top of the river embankment, the terrain was a little condescending, and the enemy was completely within range, so the flag officer waved the small red flag in his hand and shouted: "Release!" ”

"Bang Bang Bang"

An explosion rang out over the open field, accompanied by puffs of smoke, which were immediately dispersed by the raging north wind.

The gunfire reached the Xue Yantuo array, because it was all lined up and on the riverbed, and the embankments on both sides were slightly higher, forming a relatively closed environment, which made the gunshots oscillate and transmit within this range, forming an echo.

The gunshots with unknown and fear seemed to sound in their ears, and Xue Yantuo's soldiers turned pale with fright, and the two trembled.

"Puff Puff"

The lead bullet carried the huge kinetic energy of the gunpowder explosion, easily breaking through the leather armor on the mountain of Xue Yantuo's soldiers, drilling into their flesh and bones, and the blood flowers kept splashing on their bodies, like the poignant and terrifying flowers on the other side of hell.

Enchanting and desperate.

Rows and rows of Xue Yantuo's cavalry fell like autumn wheat under the fire of muskets.

Chekoler stood on the north bank of the riverbank, watching the Xue Yantuo people on the riverbed being hunted by the Tang army like guinea dogs, and he had no power to fight back, and his eyes were suddenly split!

He knew that the Tang Army's new weapons were extremely powerful, and he had previously cooperated with Mo Dao to kill Xue Yantuo's army in Wuchuan Town, which was extremely powerful and had an extremely long range.

But he never thought that these weapons would be used in a unified array, and they would be able to more than double their power!

The lead bullets shot out of the iron pipe were like lightning and thunder, overwhelmingly forming an impenetrable barrage, and the frontal enemy on the battlefield was left behind.

What kind of weapon is this?

There is also a mysterious weapon that can open up mountains and crack rocks and collapse the front wall in an instant......

Could it be that the gods have abandoned the Tiele people and blessed the Han people to start a massacre of the Tiele people?

The Han people have such divine weapons, and the grasslands are vast and vast, but where can they still be a place for the Tiele people?

Do you want to be like the Western Turks, abandon the playground where their ancestors have lived for generations, and flee thousands of miles to the desert of the Western Regions?

The gunfire continued.

Countless lead bullets pierced through the wind and snow and shot into the bodies of Xue Yantuo's soldiers, and one by one Xue Yantuo people fell.

Blood melted the snow on the riverbed, then was frozen by the bitter north wind, taking on an eerie crimson hue.

At first, Xue Yantuo could still stare at the rain of bullets and try to charge, but after only advancing less than ten zhang away, the sea of corpses and blood left behind in a place, collapsed instantly.

No matter how strong an army is, it will not be able to maintain its morale in the face of such a massacre under the absolute crushing of unilateral forces.

The rout is a matter of course.

Countless Xue Yantuo soldiers scattered in a hurry like a flock of sheep frightened by fierce tigers.

The wide riverbed was full of fleeing Xue Yantuo soldiers, but the Tang army advanced like a wall, and the muskets in their hands kept loading, firing, reloading, and firing...... At the same time, Xue Rengui had already led the cavalry to break into the riverbed from a low embankment not far away, and launched a pursuit of Xue Yantuo, who had dispersed.

The majestic body of Checoler on the north shore shook his horse, and his face turned pale.

He expected defeat, but he never thought that he would lose so completely.

What made him especially desperate was that once the Tang army, which had such a divine weapon, suddenly attacked the tooth tent of Yu Du Jun Mountain, what would the Xue Yantuo people have to resist?

Could it be that Xue Yantuo, who was tyrannical and dominated the desert north for a while, had to repeat the mistakes of the Turks after only ten or twenty years of replacing the Turks as the overlord of the steppe, either surrendering and becoming a puppet of the Tang people, or fleeing to the west and dying in the Western Regions?
