"Put!" The first to fire was not a musket, but a bed crossbow and trebuchet in front of the formation, originally these two instruments were too bulky, generally only used to defend the city, but the Song army occupied a geographical advantage, behind which was Tuoyuan Village, so these heavy equipment was also transported out, their range far exceeded the bow and arrow, and at this time it was also the first batch of weapons to fight the party cavalry.

The crossbow arrow of the bed crossbow is actually more like a spear, it is said that it can be used to shoot at the opponent's city wall during the siege, and then let the soldiers climb the spear to the top of the city.

In contrast, although the more cumbersome trebuchet has a shorter range and a slower speed, its lethality is more than that of a bed crossbow, because the trebuchet throws out not only stones, but also fire oil bombs, poisonous smoke bombs, etc., these special shells splash after they land, and a radius of more than a dozen steps is its killing range, especially the fire oil, which cannot be extinguished if it is stained with a little, and the miserable howls on the battlefield are endless for a while.

However, whether it is a bed crossbow or a trebuchet, there is a problem, that is, the rate of fire is too slow, and the party members are all cavalry, and they are very far apart from each other, which also limits their power, plus Li Deming also personally commanded, the party members are also highly motivated, and it is best to finally kill the Song army.

"Bang!" With the sound of bowstrings, countless locust-like feathered arrows flew out from the party cavalry, and in the blink of an eye, they burrowed into the ranks of the Song army, which also brought a lot of casualties to the Song army, but at this time, the archers of the Great Song Dynasty also began to fight back.

However, at this time, Li Deming was very excited to find that there was no shield in front of the Great Song Army, and there was no trace of the spearmen, which made him stunned at first, and then fell into ecstasy, because in his opinion, the Song Army had no shield and spear protection, and could not block the impact of his cavalry, so he also immediately ordered the whole army to accelerate and rush towards the Song Army.

Not only Li Deming discovered this problem, but also the party cavalry charging in front of him also discovered this problem, which made everyone fall into a kind of ecstasy, and they didn't need Li Deming to urge at all, they brandished maces and rushed forward desperately.

However, the party people were still happy too early, at this moment, I saw that the front of the Song army was suddenly divided, and three strange teams came out from the left, center, and right sides, and then the heavy drums sounded, and these soldiers stepped forward with an iron pipe, and with the sound of "Woo Woo Woo ~", countless hot projectiles flew out, and the Dang cavalry who rushed to the front only felt a heat in their chests, and then the strength of the whole body was also disappearing.

"Fire ...... Muskets! Li Deming in the rear saw this strange army, and immediately thought of the musket that was rumored last year, although he had never seen the musket, but from this majesty, he could guess that this was the new weapon of the Song army.

If the bow and arrow are projectile, it is actually more than the musket in range, and when the bow and arrow fall in a parabola, because the weight is relatively large, it still has lethality, which is stronger than the musket, but the force required to open the bow is great, so the archer generally can't shoot a few rounds and has no strength, and the musket can shoot almost all the time as long as the ammunition is enough.

Of course, the biggest advantage of the musket is that it has strong penetration, whether it is leather armor or iron armor, as long as it does not hit too thick heart goggles or the like, ordinary armor can't stop bullets at all, plus the lead shot is poisonous, so as long as it is shot, it is almost certain to die with the current medical conditions.

The musketeers were divided into three teams by Cao Mata, of which the left and right two were diagonally forward, like two arms, hugging the party people who rushed forward in their arms, and at this time the three teams of musketeers fired crosswise, and the three rows of musketeers took turns to step forward, interweaving an iron and blood line of life and death, as long as the party cavalry crossed this line, they would be shot immediately, and the corpses on the ground were piled up, blocking the charging route of the cavalry behind.

"Father, we can't fight anymore, the Song army's musket is too sharp, even if the elite in our hands can rush over, I'm afraid we will have more than half of the casualties, maybe others will rebel in the future!" At this moment, Li Chengyu, who saw the tragic situation of the cavalry in front of him, finally couldn't help but beg Li Deming again.

Li Deming's face was also gloomy at this time, he thought that dispatching his most elite cavalry, even if he couldn't win in one fell swoop, would be able to shake the Song army's position and create opportunities for the cavalry on both wings, but he didn't expect that they wouldn't even be able to get close at all, and if it continued like this, I was afraid that the elite under his command would also be exhausted.

"Collect the troops!" Li Deming is not a stupid person, in fact, he is a very decisive person, seeing that there is nothing to do, he immediately ordered, with a strange sound of horns, the charging party cavalry also immediately began to retreat, but the Song army would not let them retreat so easily.

"Kill!" With Cao Wei's order, countless bows and arrows flew up from the Song army, as well as bed crossbows and trebuchets, and the musket army also slowly stepped forward and continued to shoot, which also caused great casualties to the party cavalry, and the formation began to become a little scattered.

Cao Wei was waiting for this opportunity, only to see that he immediately ordered again, and the Great Song cavalry, which had been hidden in the rear army, was finally released, and a total of more than 3,000 cavalry swept towards the party cavalry like a tornado, and at this time, the party had no will to fight, and only cared about escaping, naturally unable to resist the charge of the Great Song cavalry, and as a result, they were also killed in the blink of an eye.

Even the cavalry of the Great Song Dynasty wanted to intercept the party cavalry that was left behind, and these cavalry had at least tens of thousands of people, if the back road was really cut off, I am afraid there was only one way to die. Li Deming naturally did not give up these people easily, and organized troops to rescue again at the moment, and finally relied on the large number of people and the advantage that the Song army infantry in the rear could not catch up, so he finally repelled the cavalry of the Great Song Dynasty and rescued the party members in the rear, but he still paid great casualties.

After Li Deming withdrew from the army, he was not defeated immediately, but after retreating for several miles, he stabilized his position again, and the Great Song Dynasty was mainly foot soldiers, and there was no way to take the initiative to attack, so this war was temporarily over, but Li Deming did not retreat, which also means that this war is not over.

The first battle between the Great Song Dynasty and the party ended temporarily with the Great Song Dynasty gaining the upper hand, but whether Li Deming can pull back a game next, no one can say? After Li Deming led the army to slowly retreat, the Great Song Dynasty also began to clean up the battlefield and count the casualties on both sides, and Li Zhang could finally come out of Tuoyuan Village and feel the cruelty after the war.
