Chapter 39: Fierce Battle in the Battalion
Chen Yuan led dozens of people, ran in a hurry, and came to the Anren City Guard Camp. There was no one outside the camp gate, and Chen Xiong and the others had already led people into the camp. The camp was full of flames, shouts of killing, and the sound of blades colliding, interspersed with the rumbling sound of explosions from time to time. This is supposed to be a soldier of the security regiment using gunpowder bullets.
"Brethren, I am invincible today. There are grenades ready, and they will be greeted to the Tartar head later. Chen Yuan said as he pulled out the short knife at his waist.
"Yes." Some pulled out their grenades and made a gesture, others raised their short knives. The fighters of the guard company, like the assault company, were armed with a small number of grenades.
"Brothers, kill!"
"Kill!" The crowd shouted and rushed into the camp in a whirlwind.
The camp was littered with corpses, and some of them were still alive, wailing on the ground. There are Han soldiers and security regiments. But most of them were Han soldiers who didn't have time to put on armor, or wore single clothes or were naked. Presumably, something happened suddenly, and they didn't have time to pierce the armor, so they came out desperately with a knife.
The camp was on fire everywhere, and in the light of the fire, the soldiers of the security regiment were frantically chasing and killing some disheveled Mengyuan Han soldiers. The Mengyuan Han army also recovered from the initial blow, and gradually organized, armed with knives and guns, and fought desperately against the soldiers of the security regiment.
The small number of grenades equipped by the assault company had been used up, and Chen Xiong, Zhao Zhong and others had to organize personnel to surround most of the Han army first, and send people to clear the scattered enemy forces in the camp. After adjusting the formation, concentrate on annihilating the encircled enemy forces one by one!
The security regiment in the battalion has the advantage, but the combat strength of the soldiers is not as good as that of the Han army. There were more than 300 soldiers of the security regiment, and the enemy army was divided into two pieces more than 30 paces apart, one with about 50 or 60 people, and the other with about 100 people.
In the encirclement, the Han army Jingming was red-eyed and stubbornly resisted. Although the security regiment was superior in numbers, it did not have an advantage in individual force, so they had to use shields and spears to force them far away. Fortunately, the Han was unprepared, and many people were disheveled, and most of them only carried a single knife in their hands, and they couldn't rush out for a while.
In the encirclement, the captain of the Han military academy shouted loudly, and the panicked soldiers gradually rose up in order, resisting the compression of the security regiment in a good manner, and the two armies were at a stalemate for a while.
The most urgent task at the moment is to concentrate efforts on destroying one part of it. If this situation is allowed to continue, and the Han army is allowed to gather and rush out, the price of defeating these Han troops will often be several times greater, and the tide of the battle may be reversed if one is not careful.
In the firelight, Chen Xiong and Zhao Zhonggao shouted, trying their best to organize the formation, intending to destroy the enemy in the encirclement with the power of the array. But the companies had already broken up, and for a while they were organized.
At this moment, the sound of horses' hooves came, and in the firelight, more than ten cavalrymen wearing leather armor killed from the camp gate. They either drew their bows and shots, or swung their knives and slashed, and the soldiers of the security regiment they encountered were covered with them. In a moment, they killed more than a dozen people.
In order to defend a blonde and blue-eyed man, he shouted nonsense, pulled out his horse and rushed towards Chen Xiong and others who surrounded the Han army. intends to rescue most of the Han army.
"It's the Spur Army, rejecting horses, rejecting horses! Pikemen, column rejection of horses. Zhao Zhong came back to his senses and shouted.
Chen Xiong hurriedly commanded several teams of pikemen who had just gathered to step forward, squatting on the periphery, and laying out a gun array. Some shieldmen reacted and stepped forward to cover the pikemen.
The horses galloped forward, and from time to time the pikemen were shot down, but none of the soldiers of the security regiment retreated. The gunners in the front row squatted slightly, their bodies shrunk, their heads bowed, resisted the incoming arrows with their iron pot helmets with brims, pointed their spears obliquely, stepped on the tail end of the guns with their feet, closed their eyes, and waited for the impact of the horses.
After all, more than ten horsemen did not collide with the general, turned a corner in front of the gun array, and galloped away.
"Deploy more guns and step forward to restrain the charge of the war horses!" Chen Yuangao shouted.
On the battlefield, if the war horse can't charge, it won't have much combat power. In the camp, which is already narrow, and many tents on fire are scattered in all directions, there is not much room for the war horses to maneuver, and only a few captains of guns and knives need to go up, and the war horses cannot run.
Chen Xiong hurriedly sent two more captains of spearmen to intercept the Tanma Red Army. But as soon as the people outside the encirclement were scattered, the Han army in the encirclement became agitated again.
"Brothers, Lord Benzama's cavalry is here, let's kill, kill all these southerners!" A naked lieutenant shouted.
"Kill, with Lord Lu, let's kill out. Kill all these southern barbarians, get promoted and get rich. Someone shouted with a knife.
A number of Han soldiers responded, stepped forward with their swords, and killed the security team outside the circle Β± retreated again and again. If most of the Han army in the encirclement rushed out and joined up, coupled with the dozen or so horsemen and red troops galloping around in the camp, the tide of the battle was about to be reversed.
"yes." Chen Yuan gritted his teeth, pointed to the Han army that was the most noisy and had fewer people, and said, "Beidi Yankee, you lead a group of people to go up with me, use grenades to open the way, and kill this group of Han troops first." β
"Yes." Seeing that the brothers fell one by one, the Beidi Yankees' eyes also turned red, and they no longer had time to care about Chen Yuan's safety. With a roar, he led the guard company to rush towards the Han army.
"Grenades, get ready....throw!" The general rushed to the front of the enemy, Chen Yuangao shouted, and more than ten smoking grenades were thrown head-on at the enemy group.
"Boom, boom, boom....." The grenade exploded in the enemy group, causing bursts of fire, and the Han army was blown up.
"Brothers, kill!" Before the smoke cleared, before Chen Yuan led the guard battalion to rush in, a company commander of a security regiment jumped up and slashed a stunned Han soldier with a knife. The soldiers of the security regiment outside the circle let out a sigh and rushed towards the stunned Han army, stabbing with knives and guns. The scattered Han army, which was baptized by a wave of grenades, was the opponent of the soldiers of the security regiment, and was immediately hacked to the ground. The soldier who was lucky enough not to die cried for his father and called his mother, and fled in all directions.
"Go, which way." Chen Xiong grabbed the Beidi Yankee who rushed forward and pointed to another larger encirclement where Chen Xiong was not far away.
The Northlander ran with his knife in hand.
"Not good. Protect adults. The platoon commander who joined the guard company at the city gate shouted. I saw more than a dozen horsemen riding horses and red soldiers who didn't know when to bypass the gun array and rushed towards their own team.
Everyone surrounded Chen Yuan, dozens of people were worthy of short knives, and the soldiers on the periphery had to raise their swords high and face the galloping cavalry in horror.
Chen Xiong, who was not far away, also saw the situation here, and couldn't help but be terrified.
"Gun array, gun array, come forward, protect your lordship." Chen Xionggao shouted. But they are blocking the guns of the cavalry everywhere, where can they catch up with the gallop of the war horses.
"Gotcha, gottaβ" The horse's hooves struck the ground, and the ground trembled. After more than thirty steps, the war horse arrived in an instant, and the riders on the horse were clearly discerning, and they laughed one by one, raised their butts on the horse, raised the scimitar in their hands, and were about to enjoy the next killing.
"Kill." Suddenly, on the way of the horse team's charge, two long bamboo mills protruded from the oblique thorns. After the bamboo milling, the two shield-bearers hold a shield in one hand and a javelin in the other. Followed by 4 spearmen, and the two crossbowmen behind them were the mandarin duck array that Chen Yuan had stolen from later generations.
The bamboo milling that is more than two zhang long, the end is equipped with an iron spear head, and the branches and branches are also tied with some sharp blades, and the branches and branches are stabbed to the right, and the branches can scratch the enemy.
The sudden bamboo milling stretched out in front of the horse, and the front was raised high by the startled war horse. A knight on the side reined in the reins of his horse slightly, stepped forward and slashed it with a knife, and cut off a piece of bamboo. I could only hear the mournful neighing of the war horse next to me, and the war horse that jumped up fell to the ground with a thud, and two long javelins had been pierced into the horse's abdomen.
The knight who sharpened the bamboo mill was in shock, and broke the head of the spear, and the bamboo mill, which was still eight feet long, stabbed him and stabbed him off the warhorse. The horses behind him stepped forward, and more than a dozen horsemen collided into a group.
"Kill!" The four pikemen shouted loudly, and rushed forward under the cover of the shield man, and there was a stab. The two crossbowmen behind them unleashed their crossbow arrows and shot the two off their horses.
Then, two more spear formations rushed forward and surrounded more than ten horsemen. After a while, the two horsemen hurriedly twisted their horses' heads and fled frantically.
"What a mandarin duck array!" Chen Yuan praised loudly.
"Thank you for your appreciation." Someone in front of him answered loudly, and then shouted loudly: "Brothers, adults are watching, this Tartar, don't let one go, kill!" β
"Kill." Everyone rushed up and drowned more than a dozen horsemen in the array of guns.
"Okay, this mandarin duck array is really powerful. Zhou Thorn is also good. It's a loss that Brother Yuan has found a good hand! Chen Xiong ran to Chen Yuan's side at some point, looked at the scene of being besieged and killed, and praised.
Chen Yuan smiled, I really lost this week's thorn today, otherwise it would be dangerous. This week's construction was obtained by Chen Yuan from the Xinzhou Xiangjun. It seems that in the future, more talents will be summoned from the box army and the forbidden army.
The Tanma Thorn Army was killed, and the morale of the Meng, Yuan, and Han troops in the encirclement plummeted, and they had no fighting spirit, and the soldiers of the security regiment under the command of Zhao Zhong tightly surrounded the enemy.
It was already dawning, the shouts of killing in the camp were quiet, and except for the dozens of people who were surrounded, the Mongolian and Han troops in other places were cleaned up.
"Clean up as soon as possible, quickly clean up the battlefield, and occupy the county seat." Chen Yuan greeted Chen Xiong, Zhao Zhong and others.
"Yes." Chen Xiong agreed. Turning his head and saying to the Beidi Yankee: "Zheng Daniu, do you still have any grenades, give them another while." β
"Yes." With a wave of his hand, a dozen or so members of the guard company stepped forward, holding a grenade in one hand and a fire twist in the other.
"Something for the tiger, let you see the power of the Yaye grenade!"
The Han soldiers in the encirclement had already seen the power of these men's palms, and they crowded into the middle of the crowd one by one, and there was chaos inside.
The Northland laughed and was about to twist the lead to the fire.
"No need. Surrender. Chen Yuan took his hand and asked the guard company to put away the grenade.
This grenade is a precious thing, there is not much left, and it cannot be wasted. There were only dozens of enemies just now, and this stupid cow commanded people to cast more than a dozen, which was enough of a waste.
"Listen, you have nowhere to go. Those who don't want to die put down their weapons and come out to surrender. Everyone is Han Chinese, and there is no need to die for Mengyuan Tartar. β
"Han people don't kill Han people. If you don't want to die, come out and surrender! β
"No matter how hard you are, you can't fight the grenades in our hands, if you don't want to die, surrender quickly! No more surrender, grenades came. β
The fighters of the security regiment shouted.
"Okay, as long as you don't kill me, I'll surrender, I'll surrender." A Han sergeant shouted.
"Those who surrendered dropped their weapons, raised their hands, and walked out one by one."
"Okay, I'm down." A young soldier dropped his knife and walked out with his hand raised.
"Dangchang, dangchang..." Then the sound of discarding the blade continued, and all the soldiers came out, and then they were taken into custody. Chen Xiong left a company to rescue the wounded, clean up the camp battlefield, and took the other two companies out of the camp.
"Your Excellency, your Excellency." A cavalry officer of the security regiment rode into the camp on a horse, jumped off his horse in front of the guards, and shouted: "My lord, my lord, Li Jing has been caught, and Li Jing has been caught by Anren's surrender to the enemy." β
Chen Yuan, who was commanding the cleaning of the battlefield and the treatment of the wounded, was relieved when he heard this, this Anren was finally won.
