Chapter 97: Invincible Thunderbolt
Nerugu held a steel knife in his hand, his eyes were firm, and he led his two thousand soldiers to brave the fire of the Song army. The horses were killed, and although they did not go hungry, there was really no fodder to feed the horses. Today's battlefield is full of artillery fire, and it is not suitable for horseback riding.
As Yeluhongki's palace army, Nelugu and others lived a prosperous life. He had a large family with many cattle and sheep and many servants. Yelu Hongji and Yelu Chongyuan fought for the throne Nerugu did not participate, in fact, the entire palace army, most of them followed Yelu Renxian, Tang Guzhen to Shangjing after the first battle. However, as a direct force of the royal family, they have always been the elite of the elite.
The situation is clear. Nerugu knew that his coming here was basically equivalent to sending him to death. But he was not afraid, as a steppe warrior, he was not afraid of death. It's just a pity that this time I went south, I didn't grab anything, and it was extremely wretched. I died here, and I don't know what kind of fate my father and elders in the family will face. Nerugu also didn't know what would happen to the Khitan after this big defeat.
The Song army formation in front of it has been seen very clearly. Those Song soldiers were all armed with muskets, and the muskets were loaded with bayonets, aiming at themselves. Taking a deep breath, Nerugu let out a loud sigh and picked up his steel knife as he picked up his speed.
Tan Yao saw it from the observation hole and shouted to Tang Pu beside him: "Blow the horn!" We thunderbolted and pressed against these Khitans! Straight lady thief, let's see if these Khitans are the bones, or if we are the thunderbolt! ”
A horn sounded, and the thunderbolt slowly picked up speed, passed the protective infantry, and headed for the Khitan army formation.
Nerugu heard the horn sound, and looked at the smoking steel beast in front of him, coming towards him, and was stunned for a moment. He didn't know what it was, why he ran, and he didn't know how it came to him.
100 steps away, in the blink of an eye. The steel thunderbolt rushed to the Khitan army formation, did not slow down, and pressed straight over. The Khitans screamed and fell under the car, not understanding what was happening until they died.
With a beastly roar, Nerugu raised his steel knife and slashed at the thunderbolt in front of him. The knife was powerful, slashing at the thunderbolt and sending out a string of sparks. However, the car did not slow down, or even be affected in any way, and drove straight ahead. Nerugu didn't figure out what was going on until he died. I only felt a sharp pain, and my eyes went dark.
Tan Yao said in the car: "Look at the front carefully, don't overdo it!" The military formation that pressed over, and the infantry behind it! ”
The Khitan army of 2,000 people, halfway through the thunderbolt car, the soldiers were completely frightened crazy. The screams continued, and he desperately fled to his own formation. These steel behemoths are not afraid of swords and guns, they are not afraid of anything, nothing can stop them.
When Yelu Yixin saw it behind him, his eyes almost fell off. The thunderbolt in front of it was moving slowly, and the surroundings were full of gunsmoke, which could not be seen clearly, and did not attract the attention of the Khitans. This time he suddenly accelerated, and he actually rushed into the military formation, which was really terrifying.
The infantry behind the Thunderbolt, barely firing, stabbed the frightened Khitan to the ground with their bayonets and followed the Thunderbolt. They quickly formed a military formation and protected the thunderbolts.
On the city tower, Zhao Zhen saw it through the telescope, and said to Du Zhongxiao beside him: "Tai Lieutenant, look at that thunderbolt car, it's really amazing!" The Khitan army array came and pressed straight over. Thousands of enemy troops, just like that, were wiped out! ”
Du Zhongxiao said: "Of course. The cart was covered in steel, rushing forward, and the Khitans had nothing to stop it. ”
The invincible Thunderbolt is the most beggar version of the tank. In this era, there is not even artillery in the Khitan array, what can be used to block it? If it weren't for the high failure rate and strict requirements for the terrain, of course it would be invincible. If it is really easy to use, at any cost, build thousands of vehicles to replace the cavalry, what army formation can block it? However, this car is too prone to faults, and the terrain is not good, and it is not a few steps.
Thirty thunderbolts, in less than half an hour, have broken down seven or eight. This time, two more broke down there. used them to rush the Khitan army formation, and it is estimated that when they reach Yelu Hongji's side, they will all be broken.
Han Qi on the side also saw that the thunderbolt was indeed a divine object, and the gods blocked and killed the gods on the battlefield, and the Buddha blocked and killed the Buddha. Not to mention that there are cannons on it, that is, there are no cannons, relying on a body of iron armor, you can walk, and it is enough to break through most of the military formations in the world. But the car is too expensive, and the driving ability is poor, and it is particularly prone to breakdown. On the battlefield, it is not a one-sided situation like today, and it is difficult to play a role.
The two armies faced each other, and the thunderbolt on this side went out, as if entering a no-man's land. When the commander on the opposite side was frightened, he suddenly found that the car was parked there and couldn't move, what was the situation? At the end, there will be a joke.
Du Zhongxiao never objected to the Thunderbolt, he just asked that the car be stable enough and not have an accident on the battlefield. It's just that the technology of this era is not easy to support the normal operation of trains, and it is very difficult for cars on ordinary roads.
Yelu Xiantong looked at the military array sent out, and as soon as he received the Song army, he was scattered by a group of steel monsters rushing up. Then the infantry who came up after him raised their hands and feet, and killed all the remaining people, so shocked that their eyes almost fell.
Looking at Yelu Hongji beside him, Yelu Xiantong whispered: "Your Majesty, how can Song Jun have such a divine object?" In Yichen's opinion, this thing is somewhat like a train in the Song Dynasty. It's just that trains run on railways, and there is no need for railways. ”
Yelu Hongji's face darkened, and after a long while, he said: "Look at the Song army in front, there are only these dozens of vehicles. Order Yelu Yisin, and send people out again to attack other places! No matter what, we must knock out the Song army's cannons! ”
Yelu Xiantong said: "Your Majesty, the iron car of the Song army in front seems to be coming here. Looking at their appearance, they should know that His Majesty is here, and he intends to do so. If something happens to Your Majesty, how will the whole army fight? Today, it's too dangerous, please move your majesty! ”
Yelu Hongji looked at the Song army slowly advancing in front of him, and after a long while, he nodded: "It's okay." This iron cart can't be stopped, and it really can't be carried hard. We moved a mile to the east, and ordered Jeruyisin to lead his troops with us. ”
Yelu Xiantong said yes. Hurry away and go to Jeruyisin.
In front of Yelu Yixin, Yelu Xiantong said: "How can Song Jun have such a divine object? Covered in iron, you can still drive by yourself! ”
Yelu Yixin said angrily: "How do I know? Before that, no one had ever mentioned it. Today, the Song army attacked, and suddenly it came out! My 2,000 soldiers, just before the battle, all of them became revenants! ”
Yelu Xiantong sighed: "Today's danger seems to be difficult to escape. The Holy Lord's decree moved one mile to the west. Immediately you will move west with the Holy Lord. Arrange the military formation here, stay behind, and don't let the Song army see the flaws. ”
Yelu Yixin listened, and said angrily: "King, how far is the Song army from us in front?" Move here, you can see clearly on the other side, how to dodge? You don't have to do those things that pretend to be gods, I will lead the army to move west with the saint. ”
Yelu Xiantong sighed, knowing that Yelu Yixin was telling the truth, and he couldn't hide it from Song Jun, and he didn't insist anymore.
