Volume 1 Chapter 39 I don't know what to do
Zhu Gaoxu led his troops to move to the east, and saw that Zhu Neng's troops had broken through the barriers in many places, and a large number of infantry were fighting bravely to take the lead. Many people jumped into the trenches and climbed up; Others threw overturned stakes and bodies killed in battle into ditches and were filling in the earth with shovels.
The sound of killing shook the sky, the guns roared, and Zhu Gaoxu watched while running a horse. When he looked around again, the generals such as Qianhu and Deputy Qianhu of the left guard army led by him were all gone. Only Wang Bin and Wei Da will follow him.
The roar of artillery and campfires lit up the scene, and in the moonlight it was difficult to see clearly from ten paces away. Seeing the surging of people and horses, and the flashing of swords, Zhu Gaoxu couldn't figure out where his people and horses were.
But Zhu Neng's friendly army had already been killed, and Zhu Gaoxu didn't want to trap him, so he immediately raised his bow and shouted: "Kill!" Then he shouted to the soldiers to the left and right, and kicked the horses from the place where the pit was filled into the fence.
The cavalry rushed into the barracks, and Zhu Gaoxu suddenly felt his head "buzzing", because it was simply a pot of porridge. The rebels are fighting each other, fluttering like boiling water.
"Bang bang bang ......" The fire was flashing around. The air was filled with the mixed smell of burnt charcoal, gunpowder smoke, and wine, and the accompaniment of crackling like firecrackers, and Zhu Gaoxu thought of the excitement of Chinese New Year's Eve for a moment. If it weren't for the screams of the ghost crying gods to remind him, he would really have the illusion of Chinese New Year's Eve.
The scene is too chaotic, and he doesn't even know where his subordinates are, Zhu Gaoxu really doesn't know how to command the battle at this time, and it doesn't seem to be of much use! But Zhu Gaoxu still has a bit of common sense: he finally rushed in, and if he blocked the gap and didn't leave, it would affect the passage of people behind.
"Drive!" As soon as Zhu Gaoxu kicked the horse's belly, he looked at the place where there were few people, and rushed deep into the barracks, but fortunately, the guards around him followed very closely.
At this moment, I suddenly saw a group of infantry in the distance, running into the open space next to several bonfires, and the footsteps of "Titicacaca......" had become neat in the mess. Zhu Gaoxu watched for a moment, and then knew that the enemy soldiers were temporarily forming a formation!
Infantry must be formed in formation to be powerful. The southern army was suddenly attacked on the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival, but they did not rush to escape, and they could still organize into an army after the fortifications were breached?
Zhu Gaoxu was in a hurry, and had a thought: Don't let them have a chance to form a formation!
He turned his head and pointed at the two pro-army cavalrymen and said, "You, you, go back immediately, and shout at the gap in the east." No matter whose men and horses it is, don't stop the horses that have just entered, come to the west, and the enemy infantry will form a formation and kill! ”
"Order!"
When Zhu Gaoxu approached on horseback, he heard the enemy general shouting: "Brothers, be loyal to the country, the time has come!" ”
All the troops shouted in unison, and in the firelight, soldiers wearing wide-brimmed iron hats clenched their spears and wooden poles, and gathered side by side in a team. The formation was dense and the scene was very shaking.
Zhu Gaoxu led more than 200 horsemen, divided into several groups and ran to within 100 steps, and saw that the enemy army had formed a queue in front, and there were teams running into the battle formation behind him.
At this moment, suddenly a van cart was pushed in front of the formation. Zhu Gaoxu looked at it, was stunned for a moment, and immediately understood: that thing is a swarm of bees!
That swarm of bees is a car that shoots a large salvo of fire and medicine arrows, and can shoot hundreds of arrows at a time! Zhu Gaoxu had heard of it, but the Yan army did not have that kind of equipment, because it was too cumbersome and not suitable for fighting nomadic cavalry.
He hurriedly reined in his horse, and suddenly, he felt a shiver all over his body! Especially when he saw a soldier holding a torch and lighting it, Zhu Gaoxu's heart "chuckled", and his mind was blank, what else is there to do at this time? Unless you can fly, you can run away in an instant!
"Bang bang bang, bang bang, puff ......" The explosion of a large amount of gunpowder burning and the sound of air currents have sounded, Zhu Gaoxu's eyes are reflected in bright flames, and the smoke around the van is ...... Shiny light trails flew in circles in the air.
After a while, Zhu Gaoxu didn't feel anything, he looked down and looked around, and reached out to touch it, but he didn't find that he had hit the rocket at all.
"Damn it......" Zhu Gaoxu blurted out a scolding, which scared him a lot just now! What kind of weapon is this?
The soldiers around him also called all kinds of female family members and officials, and scolded them.
At first glance, Zhu Gaoxu thought that he had entered the era of machine guns, but in fact he was bluffing...... The accuracy of that thing is completely absent, but if it is close to the re-launch, relying on dense numbers, it is still lethal; The key is not to panic, not to ignite too early, it is important to be able to resist the pressure of the cavalry to quickly rush!
Zhu Gaoxu took a bunch of cavalry around him and continued to shoot his horse and rush closer. Behind the bonfire, there are firecrackers; There were also dense pikemen in the front, and the spears in the second row were also put down, sticking out from the gap in the front row, and the front of the spear formation was almost like a hedgehog! Zhu Gaoxu said in his heart: Lao Tzu's brain entered the water before rushing here!
He then grabbed the reins and adjusted his direction, and ran diagonally to the side, stretching his bow as he found a random target to fire his arrows.
The enemy pikemen who were armed with guns also began to return fire. The posture of the enemy soldiers holding the torch is very strange, they hold the torch under their armpits, and hold the torch point lead in one hand, and there is no aiming posture at all...... But it doesn't seem to be needed, anyway, the lethality is only a few steps away! Do you need to aim at a target a few steps away?
The "Bang Bang Bang Bang ......" firebolt was launched at night, and it was particularly bright, illuminating the guarded hearts of the soldiers who were hairing the guns. Zhu Gaoxu released the arrow quickly, and the place where his eyes flashed attracted the most attention. He now finally understood why the soldiers always wanted to shoot the firecrackers!
Zhu Gaoxu and the others rode more than 20 steps in front of the formation, and the fire gun, as he had observed, couldn't hit at all!
Although more than 20 steps are not far, it looks quite a distance at night.
In the enemy's formation, there were infantry bows thrown out, and the range of infantry bows was farther than that of riding bows, and they fell into the horses, but the ranks of horsemen were relatively sparse, and most of the arrows that fell down were "clanging" on helmets and shoulder armor.
Cavalry scurried back and forth in front of and on the flanks of enemy formations, and arrows flew in the night sky.
There was a drum beating in the enemy's formation, and the front spear squad slowly stepped forward, and the infantry behind was divided into two groups, running from both flanks to outflank the front...... Zhu Gaoxu recognized this formation, but he saw it in the book, Taizu used the method of infantry. The general of this infantry in front of him is definitely an academic! This formation seems simple, but the awesome thing lies in military discipline and organization, and the average ancient infantry can't play at all, and they will have to run apart.
"Flash!" Zhu Gaoxu shouted without hesitation, patted his horse and turned around, beckoning everyone to step back.
Fang retreated dozens of steps, and Zhu Gaoxu saw the big-mouthed Zhu Neng. Zhu Neng was accompanied by a team of horsemen and a large group of chaotic foot soldiers, and he also found Zhu Gaoxu, so he said: "King Gaoyang is on the side, and I am on the front!" ”
"Take care, brother!" Zhu Gaoxu clenched his fists on the horse, which counted as a response. Immediately he raised his hand, beckoned his soldiers to turn, and the horse team spared half a circle and circled around the enemy's flank.
When he looked back, he saw that Zhu Nengbu had already engaged the Southern Army. The chaotic sword players of the Yan army were in front, and they immediately squeezed together with the spearmen of the southern army, and the sound of killing shook the sky!
Zhu Gaoxu saw the soldiers in the crowd howling and fighting with knives and guns, and decided in his heart: No matter whether they win or lose, the infantry on both sides are quite combative. In his judgment law, infantry without combat effectiveness generally only want to use long-range, and in a bloody environment, those who do not run in hand-to-hand combat are ruthless!
Zhu Gaoxu also put away his bow, took his spear, and led the crowd to charge behind the enemy's flank.
Although this southern army was grouped, it was still completely formed into a formation in a hurry, and the flanks and rear were relatively chaotic. Zhu Gaoxu's horse is the best, and when he charged, he unconsciously ran to the front, and suddenly he was hit by three arrows on his armor, although there was pain in the skin, but the muscles were painless, and he didn't feel any injuries!
Zhu Gaoxu rushed into the crowd and stabbed one person to death in advance. When the soldiers saw that he was brave, their morale was greatly boosted, and they shouted and killed the generals from everywhere.
Zhu Gaoxu rushed left and right, unstoppable. He quickly learned how to fight on horseback...... In fact, it's the same as fighting in a group, you can't stand in one place and wait to be besieged at the same time, but you have to move to fight! Breaking through from one direction can create a time difference in the movement, and it is difficult for the enemy to attack at the same time.
His muscular strength and speed are much faster than those of ordinary soldiers, and he is almost invincible in heads-up, let alone condescending to ride against him! The soldiers are also people, and they want to kill people when they go into battle, not to send them to death, and when they see the high-headed iron horse rushing towards them, most of them have to run, Zhu Gaoxu kept moving while chasing, and on the other hand, he avoided the risk of being attacked and killed at the same time.
rushed back and forth several times, Zhu Neng fought desperately in the front, and after a while, the southern army could not support it and collapsed and fled.
In the entire camp, chaos resumed again, and more and more Yan army infantry and cavalry poured in from various gaps. In all directions, the tent was on fire, and the flames were in the sky, and the screams of terror were mixed with the shouts of killing.
Zhu Gaoxu paused slightly, Ben Zhang's blood continued to hit the eardrum, and his ears felt a sense of loss of voice.
I don't know how long it took, Zhu Neng patted his horse over, turned his head to look at the messy battlefield, and said: "Fortunately, King Gaoyang is brave, we have won a big victory!" ”
Zhu Gaoxu was stunned and didn't know how to answer for a while.
His hands were sticky, full of sweat and blood, spread out his hands, he took a look, and suddenly remembered a line in the movie, which seemed to describe the feeling of his first war: he was very excited anyway, but he didn't know what he had done, and it was already over.
"King Gaoyang, are you injured?" Zhu Neng asked.
Zhu Gaoxu looked down at the few severed arrows on his chest, and said with a confused expression: "I wore three layers of armor." ”
I don't know where this sentence is funny, Zhu Neng opened his bloody mouth and laughed.
At this moment, Wang Bin walked over with a person and said, "Lord Wang, it was this guy who led the soldiers and worked hard with us before!" ”
The man raised his head, his face was bloodied, and said, "If you want to kill, you will kill!" ”
Zhu Gaoxu blurted out: "Take this academy away." ”
At this moment, a rider ran into the barracks with a command flag in his hand, dismounted and bowed: "Lord, general!" Yan Wang Yan, Zhang Yu blocked the return road of the Juzhou army at the Yueyang Bridge, and the king of Yan has led most of the troops to the south from the north, so that after you finish fighting Xiongxian, you will immediately attack the Juzhou army from the west! ”
