Monk An, the commander of the Tang Army, had a burning gaze and stared closely at the dynamics of the Geng army opposite. When the whole army continued to advance to only about 200 paces in front of his own formation, he raised the command flag in his hand.

So, as if by magic, above each of the shields of the iron, beside each of the spearmen who were ready to attack, there appeared a musketeer with a flintlock gun.

They quickly prepared, and the black hole spearmen in everyone's hands immediately aimed at the Geng army who had just formed a formation on the opposite side.

The order flag in Monk An's hand waved down violently. "Ready, fire!"

With the angry shout of the chief of the firecrackers, the six thousand firecrackers fired in unison, and a total of more than 6,500 firecrackers were fired.

"Bang bang bang! ……”

Rows of bright red embers flew together, like a long bright red ribbon, as beautiful as hellfire, with a unique beauty like a death ritual. A large cloud of choking white gunpowder smoke poured up, and more than 5,500 tiny three-coin Mini bullets, like a swarm of death bees flying away in unison, let out a slight and cheerful chirp, and swooped down on the opposite Geng army.

The flintlock rifle gun used by the Tang army has a maximum accurate range of 150 paces, compared with the current distance of 200 paces, of course, the accuracy is impossible, but in the case of Geng's army charging so intensively, as long as it is within the maximum range, even if there is no accurate intensive shooting, it can still create a terrible killing effect.

The roaring death bee swarm, chirping and smiling, quickly burrowed into Geng Jun's body on the other side.

The tiny lead bullets weighing three coins burrowed into the human body, breaking bones, tearing muscles, and the surging bullets churned the internal organs into a pulp, forming a terrible cavity effect.

Geng Jun in the front row, many people immediately bloomed like a trick, and the people who were hit fell on their backs as if they had been slammed with a heavy hammer.

The impact of this lead bullet was so great that those Geng soldiers who happened to block the lead bullet with a shield could not resist this huge impact, and they staggered backwards and fell. It's just that as soon as they fell, they were immediately trampled to death and injured by the Geng soldiers who were extremely fanatical and still rushed straight behind, and the scene was a mess.

The first round of shooting, although it was completely impossible to aim, also caused at least more than 800 Geng soldiers to be killed and wounded on the spot, making the Geng army's formation suddenly appear chaotic.

When Geng's formation was scattered and the speed was slightly sluggish, the second round of fire salvos began again.

"Bang bang bang! ……”

The gunfire was loud, the embers were flying, and more than 5,500 guns were fired, and more than 5,500 lead bullets roared out, because the formation of Geng's army began to disperse, and many enemy troops could not dodge, causing more than 800 casualties of Geng's soldiers.

The formation of the Qing army suddenly became more and more chaotic, and many people showed extremely frightened expressions, because they didn't know when such bad luck would befall them.

Geng Zhongming, who was monitoring behind the battle, saw that his own soldiers began to be chaotic and shaken in the two rounds of intensive fire of the Tang army, and the speed and strength of the impact were also greatly reduced, and he couldn't help but be angry.

Damn, two volleys disrupted their formation, these death-fearing ghosts are really useless.

"Rush! Give it all to Lao Tzu! If anyone doesn't rush, they will be killed! ”

Geng Zhongming shouted angrily: "The dog entered! The Tang Army's two volleys disrupted you, what's the use of Lao Tzu raising you such a waste! The more afraid you are of dying, the faster you will die, rather than sitting here and waiting for death, it is better to rush up to Lao Tzu! Go, rush to engage the Tang army in hand-to-hand combat, it is victory! ”

Geng Zhongming scolded sharply, and ordered his guards to step forward to supervise the formation, rectify the formation, and force these Geng soldiers who were driven to pigs and sheep to all rush forward and attack to the place where the Tang army stood shields, and fought hand-to-hand combat with the Tang army.

With no way back, they were shot forward, and these poor fellows, whose courage and will had been weakened at this time, were still forced to rush forward, and the situation was quite miserable. It's just that they have no choice, knowing that their current self, the only way to survive is to rush to the front of the Tang army as soon as possible, and engage the Tang army in hand-to-hand combat, so that they can no longer fight the firecrackers, the only way to save their lives.

As a result, the Geng soldiers were still staring at the blood-red eyes, shouting and rushing forward, and the Tang army's firearms were also ruthlessly fired round by round, and in this distance of only about a hundred paces, the Geng soldiers kept wailing and falling.

Geng Jun with a large number of people, not afraid of death, they desperately advanced, and finally arrived at about dozens of steps away from the big shield long array, at this time, in the Tang army array, those more than 2,000 Tang army auxiliaries who had been holding still, one after another, used their strength to eat, the burning individual soldier in their hands shook the sky, and threw it towards the rolling Geng army formation.

Bang bang! ……”

Dozens of steps away, the deafening sound of continuous explosions resounded into one piece, almost bursting people's eardrums, the dazzling golden firelight, in the large cloud of suffocating whistle smoke from time to time, broken limbs and blood in the air burst out in all directions, screams one after another, the scene was like a bloody hell.

The Tang Army's unexpected earth-shattering bombardment can be described as a fatal blow to the Geng army's soldiers.

These fragments had a killing radius of more than ten paces, and the killing effect on Geng's soldiers was terrifying.

These 3,000 single-handed earth-shattering thunderbolts were thrown intensively, and a total of more than 1,600 of them exploded smoothly, killing more than 3,000 Geng troops who were charging intensively, and countless people were injured.

Many people's ears have been shaken to the point of deafness, and they are stunned in place, not knowing what to do next.

For a time, Geng's army formation was in chaos, and morale fell to the bottom.

At this time, the second round of individual thunder throwing by the Tang Army's auxiliaries began again.

"Bang bang bang! ……”

Dozens of steps away, there was another continuous violent explosion, human stumps and blood and internal organs flying in all directions, and as many as 2,000 Geng soldiers who had not had time to retreat and disperse, were killed in an instant.

Immediately after that, another third round of throwing began.

And when the earth-shattering thunder was mighty, the 6,000 flint guns were fired in unison, and the dense gunfire and the deafening explosions were intertwined and deafening, and there was no pause.

In the face of such a powerful firearm attack of the Tang army, in the face of this violent massacre that was almost absolute death, most of the Geng army that rushed into battle with flesh and blood, only ten steps away from Haogou, in this place almost close to the Tang army, finally many Geng troops completely collapsed.

A large number of Geng soldiers threw their weapons one after another, turned around and fled crying, like a group of pigs who didn't care about their stomachs, no longer talking about any organization and discipline, everyone was desperately retreating and running, lest they fall behind, they would become the ghosts of the Tang army.

There were only about 2,000 Geng soldiers, who were extremely lucky to rush to the Tang Army's big shield almost subconsciously, but before they could wave the weapons in their hands, a large number of Tang Army spearmen with complete armor and sharp steel spears could not hold it back, and they used all their strength to use the 4-meter stainless steel spears that had been accumulating for a long time to stab at these Geng troops who were chaotic and low in formation.

A 4-meter-long stainless steel spear, the sharp and terrifying three-edged blood trough spear head, as if it had eyes, stabbed fiercely at the desperate Geng soldiers.

Being stabbed by the three-edged stainless steel spear head engraved with a deep blood groove is like being kissed by a poisonous snake, which can be said to be dead when touched, and dead when touched. Under the ferocious stabbing of the Tang army's spearmen, the Geng soldiers screamed again and again, and continued to struggle and fell to their deaths.

"Don't run away! If there are escapees, kill them! Seeing that Jianfang was already close to the Tang Army, but the formation was in such a chaotic situation, Geng Zhongming was furious, he gritted his teeth and ordered: "Go, kill all those who escaped from the battle!" ”

A large number of cavalry guards roared away, slashing and slaughtering the routs who had managed to escape to the rear, killing the poor fellows with great sorrow and screaming.

It's just that by this time of the battle, the Tang army had already killed and wounded more than 7,000 Geng troops, and the efficiency was amazing. Geng Jun lost most of his troops, and he was about to collapse completely.

Geng Zhongming's eyes were blood-red, panting like a cow, and he was almost desperate for the current situation.

What to do?

The army is about to be exhausted, and the morale is about to collapse, how can this battle continue, isn't this a sure defeat?

Could it be that in the future, you can only hurry up and escape, or you can only be captured?

Just when Geng Zhongming was in despair, at this time, he suddenly saw that there was a big movement of smoke and dust behind him, and it seemed that a large number of soldiers and horses were hurrying over.

Hearing the commotion coming from behind, Geng Zhongming's eyes instantly lit up, and he knew that the reinforcements he had been waiting for had finally arrived.

Damn, when his own army was about to be defeated, Kong Youde's 40,000 soldiers and horses finally arrived.

He didn't hesitate any longer, and immediately rushed backwards with a group of guards, and soon, he saw Kong Youde who was leading the formation.

"King Zhishun, our army is fighting with the Tang army, and now the situation is extremely critical, please send troops forward quickly, we must take advantage of the exhaustion of the Tang army to defeat the Tang army in one fell swoop, so as to solve the dilemma of you and my army!" Geng Zhongming's words shouted loudly were so excited that they changed their tone a little.

Kong Youde, who had a dusty and gloomy face, glanced coldly at Geng Zhongming next to him, then raised his hand high and waved it down hard.

"The whole army is attacking, fighting face to face with the Tang army, we must defeat them!"

"Order!"

With the entry of the 40,000 Kong army, a more brutal and bloody hand-to-hand combat officially began.

The 40,000 Kong army, like overwhelming locusts, roared and rushed towards the Tang army's position that was fighting on the opposite side, quickly filling the vacancy of the defeated Geng army.

Above the Tang Army's solid shield wall, spears flew up and down, like a roaring poisonous dragon, constantly piercing Geng Jun's head, neck and chest, and the sharp and sharp three-edged steel spear head, like the claws of death, kept snatching the lives of one Kong Geng soldier after another.

And the two soldiers and horses of Geng Jun and Kong Jun, at this point in the battle, in order to save their lives and for their military exploits, everyone rushed forward more and more frantically, and the spikes of each big shield were like barbecue frogs, and they were full of Geng Jun's corpses that kept coming. Fearless of death, they rushed forward with the tips and spikes of their spears and spikes, and frantically slashed and slashed the spearmen and shield soldiers of the Tang Army behind them.

Due to the fact that the strength of Geng Kong's army was too much, in the face of this dense and powerful impact, the shield wall of the Tang army finally began to loosen, and larger and larger gaps appeared, and the shield and spearmen of the Tang army also continued to fall, but as soon as someone died or fell, new soldiers immediately filled their positions, ensuring the integrity of the entire battle array.

In such a pure cold weapon fight, the army's courage, courage, organization, discipline and other key factors are extremely tested, and in these things, the Tang army is far stronger than the Geng army.

What's more, the Tang army had a big shield as a solid protection, and it was quite difficult for the Geng army to cross the big shield to attack the shield soldiers and spearmen behind. Because of this important factor, the battle damage and death of Geng Kong's second army were exacerbated.

After a bloody battle, the battle loss exchange ratio between the Tang army and the Geng army was basically maintained at about 1 to 4. For the Tang army, after resisting the initial onslaught, they have begun to gain the upper hand from the stalemate.

However, Geng Kong's second army soon relied on its superiority in strength, and the Litang army was unable to give full play to its advantage in firearms because of the stalemate, so that the entire battle array continued to extend to both sides. The soldiers of Kong Geng's two armies kept trying to encircle the Tang army's gun and shield battle array from both sides to achieve the effect of a joint attack on three sides.

Their intentions were quickly seen through by the monk Chang'an, the second town of the Tang Army.

He flipped the command flag in his hand, and quickly issued a military order, so that the rampant general members who had been staying on both flanks, and let these most elite heavy infantry in the Tang army go out to attack and protect the two wings.

After the military order was issued, those rampant team members who were covered with heavy armor from head to toe and armed to the teeth were like tigers coming out of the mountains and dragons going down to the sea, roaring loudly, waving heavy weapons such as tiger knives, tiger spears, long-handled pick knives, and Houbei army sickles, jumping into the wings of the Geng army, slashing and killing.

These most elite heavy infantry in the Tang Army, they were like miniature tanks, in the unprepared Gengkong Army formation, rampage, as if into a no-man's land. They slashed mercilessly, slashing and screaming everywhere they went.

On the contrary, under the fierce attack of the Tang army's rampant troops, the enemy troops in front of them continued to scream and fall, and the entire formation began to retreat.

Seeing his own soldiers, the strength was still twice that of the Tang Army, but in such a cold weapon battle, he could not even gain the upper hand, but began to gradually decline and chaos, and Geng Zhongming and Kong Youde, who were watching the battle behind, were immediately angry and anxious.

Especially Kong Youde, who was still strong in strength, his face was even more ugly, he didn't have time to think more, and immediately shouted: "All the cavalry will go out, attack the two wings of the Tang Army respectively, and crush all these damn Tang Army heavy infantry to me!" ”

"Order!"
