Chapter 120: The Power of Artillery
His face was pale, and he gritted his teeth and said nothing.
There was another loud sound of artillery, and another wave of shells arrived, but it smashed into the position of the Chinese army of Sharif and others, which was a dense place for the kingdom's guards.
However, like ordinary soldiers, those elite soldiers who are considered to be experienced in a hundred battles could not withstand the power of the cannonballs, and were beaten to death, maimed or lost their lives in vain.
Sharif was stunned, not to mention those guards, these royal guards, it can be said that they are the essence of Sharif's hands, many people have nearly ten years of battlefield fighting experience, even one dead and wounded, which makes Sharif feel distressed, but now they are such a vain.
The artillery of the Nanyang Army seems to have enveloped the entire Koshari army's position, and none of them are safe. One of Sharif's guards was swept away by a shell, his right arm was taken away, and waves of blood mist erupted from his severed arm, and the guard stood beside Sharif with a pale face, looking down at the half of his fallen arm, and then fell straight down.
Another wave of shells whistled, and then smashed into the position of the Chinese army of Sharif and others, crackling fractures, in the dense array, each time more than fifty large and small iron balls, to Sharif and the other guards, causing at least more than 100 casualties.
Looking at the chaotic military formation beside him, Sharif suddenly woke up, and he was about to say something, when suddenly there was a shout in front of him, and with a bang, the entire front army collapsed. Then the tidal wave of crumbling commotion spread to the Guards and then to the Chinese Army.
Sharif looked at it in horror, the sound of hooves was like thunder, and the Chinese army of Great Xia rushed out of the infantry with long knives and spears, and rushed towards his front position.
With the roar of the tide, the left and right wings of the Great Xia Army once again rushed out of the dense army of knives and spears, outflanking their positions in the middle army from both sides. Listening to the sound of war drums over there, countless infantry, maintaining a battle formation, rushed behind the long knives and spears that rushed after the charging swords and spears with single sword shields.
The tens of thousands of Koshari troops had already broken up before the Nanyang Army could use their guns, and everywhere there were soldiers shouting for their lives, and Sharif was so dead that he just thought to himself: "Defeat like this?"
The situation in front of him could not allow him to think too much, and together with dozens of noble chiefs, with the remaining guards who had not yet dispersed, he hurriedly fled to the rear of the formation, never looking back.
This is not a war, this is an almost one-sided massacre.
The situation on the battlefield has been one-sided, and the rapid advance of the Great Xia soldiers means that the Khashari army has suffered huge casualties.
Although the Nanyang Army suffered less than 500 casualties and less than 100 casualties, this was still the largest casualty record of the Nanyang Army in several years.
Guan Zheng's heart gradually hardened because of the casualties of the soldiers. He brought out these robed brothers, and it was his duty to take them back.
His Royal Highness Gan Tang once said that as long as it is a soldier of Great Xia, even if it is ashes, it must be buried in the land of Great Xia. The corpse of a soldier was not to be left outside of Bactria and to be honored by future generations.
This promise alone made the Great Xia soldiers no longer fear death.
They are not afraid of death, and they are even more afraid of becoming a lonely ghost after death, and they will not be able to receive incense sacrifices.
Yang Buzhi, the director of Nanyang Central Hospital, led all the medical staff to gather the wounded, and more than a dozen doctors and nurses with Ganlu and Zhang Jiayu were the busiest people now, not only to treat the wounded Daxia soldiers, but also countless injured bandits who needed their treatment.
They can't afford to be treated, these bandits are now also the property of Great Xia, and with these captives, the shortage of personnel in the mines can be alleviated, and they must be allowed to play their maximum role.
Of course, some of these soldiers who have experienced the battlefield will become afraid of fighting, but most of them will think that their lives were picked up, and they will cherish life more and no longer be afraid of hard work.
Three days later, Sharif and more than 3,000 other people fled to the seaside town of Riau, which is a small seaside market town across the sea from the port of Singapore, and there is no city wall to protect it.
Looking at the encirclement of Great Xia, which was gradually encircling the approach, there was no joy or sorrow in his heart.
He doesn't want to, and he can't run away anymore, dying on the battlefield of protecting the country, this is his best destination.
With heavy steps, he walked down the watchtower, and at the staircase, more than twenty loyal warriors of the clan were waiting for his orders.
There is still such a loyal samurai who can let him die a well-deserved death, and he will die without regrets.
He pulled out the family's ancestral treasure knife in an uproar, held it high and said, "Xia Gou is bullying people and encroaching on the territory of our Nanyang people. In order to protect our homeland, we must fight to the death with the summer dog, even if it is death, we must face the summer dog and die. Kill one to get back to your capital, and kill two to earn a life.
Allah will bless our family, life is like a meteor, fleeting, we can't prevent death, but we can make our death more brilliant......"
Hearing Sharif's words, all the samurai drew their swords, raised their arms and shouted: "Like the morning dew, it will be hard to go to the day!" ”
The gunfire of the Great Xia soldiers was getting closer and closer, and the Great Xia Nanyang Army had already attacked this mansion, and they saw everyone shouting loudly in Chinese: "There are big fish here!" ”
......Hearing this, Sharif smiled bitterly, and with a finger of the sword, one of his guards shot an arrow with his bow and shot an arrow.
This one's archery skills are outstanding, and he hits every day on weekdays, but this arrow missed. Not because he couldn't shoot accurately, or because the other party dodged, but a small shield tied to his left arm blocked the arrow.
However, although he dodged this arrow, he did not escape the attack of the rout soldiers behind him, and dozens of rout soldiers hacked him to death with swords and retreated into the courtyard. Most of them looked flustered, and even Sharif could not give them any confidence.
Sharif waited for a while, but never came back, on the contrary, more and more Bactria soldiers appeared at the door, and even people appeared on the walls.
The tide is gone......
Although he thought so, in the face of the current enemy, he did not have the slightest idea of resigning himself to fate. Killing one is enough, killing two is earning.
At this time, he saw the Great Xia generals covered in blood.
Fierce fighting broke out in an instant, and Sharif and his guards were less than a hundred people in the courtyard, most of them exhausted or wounded.
Therefore, a fierce war means a quick end.
Fighting against Sharif is a seventh-generation disciple of the original beggar gang, Wu Licorice, who is now serving as the captain of the second brigade under Guan Zheng, his martial arts come from Shaolin, Wei Tuo's palm is quite deep, the two sides just took a move, when Sharif wanted to fight the knife with the other party, the other party bowed his head and twisted his waist in time, and the whole body twisted like a spinning top, and then, a sideways body, came to Sharif's side, and Wei Tuo's palm cut down along the back of Sharif's exposed neck.
The powerful palm force slashed right along the major arteries of the spine and head, causing Sharif's tall and fat body to fall heavily on the bluestone floor
Guan Zheng appeared at the door and said loudly: "Except for the chiefs of the various departments, kill everyone here, collect all the heads, set up a Jingguan on the seaside, and the rest of the people will clean up the battlefield, and the rest of the peripheral bandits will be captured and sent to the mines------"
