Chapter 184: Blocking (I) One Update
"My lord......" Zu Keyong wanted to say something, but Lin Yi interrupted him.
"Maybe Cao Cao has seen through us, but this battle must be fought like this, and you will understand in the future."
"Subordinates obey." Zu Keyong didn't say anything anymore, only obeyed.
If according to Zu Keyong's style of play, it is still completely too late, that is, let all the ambush soldiers attack, while most of these thieves are still in the water, and some of them have not yet gained a firm foothold on the shore, and they will be killed together, and Luo Rucai and they will inevitably be defeated.
But over the years, Zu Keyong has followed Lin Yi and knows Lin Yi's temper. The decision he made should not be doubted by anyone. His commandments shall not be disobeyed by anyone.
This iron-blooded warrior of the Guan Ning Army was also as fierce as a bandit, and he had to admit that he had been completely conquered by Lin Yi, he could oppose his top boss Zu Kuan, but he could not oppose his partner Lin Yi, under any circumstances.
Because Zu Keyong knows that Zu Kuan is a general at most, and he Zu Keyong is also a general at most, while his partner Lin Yi is a general.
Zu Keyong knows that although there is a difference in one word, there is a world of difference.
After Zuke bowed bravely, he went down with a few of his own soldiers......
When Erhu, He Tao and others were at a loss, and when they were a little scolded and couldn't hold on, Zu Keyong suddenly appeared behind their team, Erhu and He Tao only obediently followed Zu Keyong to run, and there were more than 2,000 generals in the first battalion who ran away with Erhu and He Tao.
At this time, it is reasonable for the two tigers to flee, a large number of thieves have rushed ashore, and a large number of thieves are still rushing forward in the river, this formation of the riverbank can not be held at all, and then stay and will definitely be annihilated by the thieves, the main force of the first battalion of the two tigers retreated in the name of escaping, which seemed very natural and not pretentious at all.
Soon, Luo Rucai's tens of thousands of troops successfully crossed, and the north bank of the Baishui River was full of bandits.
In the end, Luo Rucai also crossed the river under the protection of his own soldiers.
"My lord, should we chase down the remnants of the official army?" Dongshan Tiger came to scold just now, it was difficult to swallow this breath, his ancestors had been scolded for generations and added a piece not as much as he was beaten and scolded today, how could he swallow this breath? Now that the task of covering the brigade to cross the river has been completed, looking at the direction of the two tigers and their escape, Dongshan Tiger gritted his teeth and asked for orders again.
Luo Rucai ignored him, saw the two tigers and them running west, and ordered his troops to advance westward.
"This cunning old fox!" Lin Yi scolded, ordered the standard battalion in ambush in the east not to move, ordered the second battalion to open artillery, and at the same time asked Zu Keyong to lead the first battalion of the two tigers to speed up the march and come around from the west to intercept the main force of the thieves.
After receiving Lin Yi's order to open artillery, the artillery of the second battalion had already been prepared, and when they saw these thieves moving westward, they did not move in the direction they were aiming for the west, and those who were aiming in other directions quickly turned the direction of the cannon.
"Fire!"
The commanders of the two second battalions, Wang Qi and Dongsheng, gave an order, and dozens of cannons opened fire together.
"Knock knock knock...... Boom Boom Boom ......"
The earth shook and the mountains shook, and the ears were deaf.
The cannon is worthy of the god of war, roaring angrily and sending a shell out of the chamber with a deafening sound.
Cannonballs flew in the air, falling one by one into the midst of the thieves.
The solid bullet smashed into the thief's head, and his brain burst. smashed into the war horse, and the bones were broken and the tendons were broken. smashed into the hard ground of the rocks, and was able to bounce and sprint, how far it went, and knocked down a piece of it.
At this time, the most powerful thing is the shotgun, which falls into the crowd, and there is a boom, and there are iron nails and stones in it, and so on, and one shot can knock down a piece.
The explosion of a cannon shell ignited gunpowder buried in the ground.
Boom, boom, boom......
There were bursts of explosions, and in the thick smoke, fireballs rose.
Two thieves were knocked to the ground as if they had stepped on a landmine, and when the smoke and flames had cleared, he was charred as a corpse.
There was also a thief who was bombed, covered in fire, screaming and rampage, and finally fell to the ground, rolled, and finally did not move, unrecognizable.
The pungent smell of barbecue and burnt meat fills the air.
The thieves cried wolves, suffered casualties everywhere, and their horses neighed and fled in all directions. There were countless casualties in the stampede on each other.
Luo Rucai's forwards were in chaos at that time, and those behind did not dare to move forward, with a panicked face.
Luo Rucai's ears squeaked with shock, and he looked in horror at the direction where the cannonballs were flying. Damn, what the hell! Could it be that Lao Tzu misjudged? The ambush should be on the west side, right?
Luo Rucai's two eyes turned, looked at the direction where the two tigers fled just now, and then looked at the subordinates who were stunned by the cannonballs.
"Master Luo, you expected it accurately, there was indeed an ambush, but their artillery fire was too fierce, what should I do?" Zhang Tianlin, holding a double-barreled firearm in his hand, looked panicked.
Luo Rucai's eyes turned in the sockets again, and his head was like a big jujube core, with two tips and a wide middle.
"This must be their suspicious plan, their heavy troops must be ambushed in the east, the reason why they are firing artillery in this direction is to stop us, Lao Tzu is not going east. Come on, rush me again! ”
Luo Rucai's men and horses retreated for a while, and after being rectified, they rushed to the west again, covering the mountains and fields.
The first round of shelling of dozens of cannons passed, and at this time several Huzun cannons were powerful, although this thing had a short range, but it was very powerful, and all the shots were shotguns, and one shot was a piece.
Countless thieves have become cannon fodder.
But Luo Rucai gave the order to die, and he had to rush through here, regardless of the cost. He asked Bombardment to personally organize a team of overseers, and anyone who retreated would be hacked to death.
These thieves scolded their mothers, but they didn't dare not listen. Later, they also let it go, and it was better to die in the sound of artillery fire than to be hacked to death by their own people. In the deafening sound of artillery fire, it was the thieves who screamed and rushed forward.
Lin Yi, who was ten miles away, could see clearly from the height in the dark: "Damn, Luo Rucai's people are really evil. He doesn't want to be fooled today, Lao Tzu has to let him be fooled! Where should the 1st Battalion be? ”
"Lord Hui, according to your orders, the first battalion has been rounded to the designated position."
"Stop the shelling and let a battalion strike!"
Lin Yi knew that in the era of cold weapons, the power of artillery fire was limited after all, and they could be shocked with cannons, but if they couldn't be suppressed, they had to change their routines. It is impossible to blockade this place with these artillery fires, because the terrain here is vast, and it is not difficult for tens of thousands of horses to charge to death and rush through the range of artillery fire.
What Lin Yi wants now is not a simple victory, if that is done with Zu Keyong's method, it can be achieved. For Luo Rucai, he is ready to be ruthless.
Of course, if you want to be ruthless, you must pay the corresponding price and bear the corresponding risks. Just like doing business, only by making a big capital can you seek great benefits. A little rich is safe, and it is definitely not okay to stop at a shallow taste. Of course, big capital comes with big risks.
The roaring cannons finally stopped, and Luo Rucai's tens of thousands of horses finally rushed out, at least that's what the thieves thought. Two charges, although they threw down dead and wounded on the ground, but there were no ambushes in them, Luo Rucai thought that he was smart.
He thought he had a plan, but he just relaxed. There was a chatter, a cannon shot, and he almost fell off his horse.
Immediately after the earth-shattering shout, countless officers and soldiers were killed.
"Capture Luo Rucai alive, don't let him run away! Those who descend will not die! The 2,600 men and horses of the first battalion shouted and slaughtered these officers and soldiers all over the world.
Rushing to the front was Zu Keyong, wielding the big axe in his hand, and on the left and right were the two commanders of the first battalion, Erhu and He Tao.
For Luo Rucai, this army is tantamount to falling from the sky. Luo Rucai's face was incredible.
In a panic, Luo Rucai's mind couldn't turn in circles, "Could it be that Lao Tzu really misjudged, how could Lin Yi set up an ambush here?" Obviously, the focus of the gossip array he placed must be in the east, and there will be no mistake in going west. ”
Luo Rucai looked at the menacing Ming army, and in the blink of an eye, his vanguard had been killed by the Ming army, scattering and throwing himself around, and his corpses were all over the place.
Luo Rucai forced himself to calm down. He took a closer look and understood. These people are very fierce, but at best there are only two or three thousand people, and he can see the reality of the other party's men at a glance.
Seeing this, Luo Rucai sneered: "There are really a lot of twists and turns in the stomach of the surnamed Lin, Dongshan Tiger, take your men and horses to kill them for me!"
