Chapter 1102: Fire and Water are ruthless, Guan Sheng's nemesis
Guan Sheng was still defeated in the end, and he never expected that this battle would be so miserable.
Originally, the officers and soldiers and horses of the strong soldiers and horses shot at each other after several rounds of arrows, and then the infantry soldiers were escorted to fight each other head-on. As the two sides invested more troops, Guan Sheng also found that the strong soldiers and horses gradually began to loosen, and it seemed that they could not resist the onslaught of the officers and troops.
Although there are many leaders in the two mountains of Qingzhou who are forbidden officers and generals, in the final analysis, there are still a mixture of dragons and snakes, and there are many soldiers and horses, but how can a group of grass robbers be compared with the regular officers and soldiers? Guan Sheng thought in his heart, and ordered all the troops and horses under his command to fight hard to attack from the front, and at the same time he also gave orders to the rest of the horse officers, only to wait for the strong men to rout and flee before sending cavalry to cover the pursuit, and be sure to take down several strong leaders.
However, when the Qiang Kou infantry army that was struggling to resist in the front finally fled to the rear, Guan Sheng was shocked to find that from the enemy's main formation, there were 500 soldiers of the Shenhuo Battalion wearing silk clothes and holding firearms, and those soldiers rushed out of the front and rear and supported more than 30 fierce fire oil tanks, more than 50 Taiping cars full of reeds and other fire-causing things, and several teams of firemen also immediately took off an iron gourd with sulfur flame nitrate hidden in the back, and pulled the fire pump violently together, and suddenly five-colored smoke burst out, and the flames burst violently......
The flame is shaped like a fire dragon, and then it is poured with fierce fire oil and cannot be extinguished, and the fierce fire oil tank with great lethality takes the lead, although the body is larger, the action is bulky, and the killing range is relatively limited, but Guan Sheng is eager to attack and defeat the strong soldiers and horses, and the officers and soldiers under his command are almost all surging from the front to the flamevent of the fierce fire tank.
In an instant, it was like the god of fire Zhu Rong descending into the world and raging, everywhere there was a fire, a fierce smoke was born, and countless officers and soldiers were in the fierce flames and heart-rending howls. Even Jun Jian, who is accustomed to seeing life and death, and knows that it is common for him to lose his life by a gun and knife in a fight, can not help but lose his disappearance and retreat in fear when he sees the fire devouring the flesh and blood of the living and finally turning into a mass of charcoal. When the morale of the army was at a high level, it was suddenly beaten to the bottom by the enemy's surprise moves, and how could it be possible to win this battle again?
Although Guan Sheng only felt that the heat wave was coming, and the beautiful hair he had accumulated was gradually dried and curled, he still had to force himself to drink to stabilize his subordinates, and not to be attacked and broken by the enemy, otherwise the casualties of his own soldiers and horses would only be more heavy under the strong attack of the enemy, and then rearrange into a formation, avoid the onslaught of the frontal strong guns and weapons, and continue to launch an offensive against the enemy army in a roundabout way, and it is not impossible to regain the opportunity to win.
It's a pity that although Guan Sheng is strong and strong, in addition to the dozens of military men who followed him to the Daimyo's mansion, the court officials will be transferred to other military departments, and the soldiers and horses under his command are no longer the most comfortable troops under his leadership. Guan Sheng has not been in charge of the Daimyo's Mansion for a short time, how can he restrain the rout of the officers and soldiers who have been in turmoil at this time?
The soldiers and horses fell like a mountain, but at the same time that the officers and soldiers shouted and fled, Wei Dingguo, who was naturally not spared, ordered the soldiers in the Shenhuo camp under his command to pick up the jar filled with fierce fire oil in his hand and throw it in the direction of the officers and soldiers......
After several rounds of fierce fire strikes, Sun Anqing took out his iron twin swords and slashed forward again, and led his troops with Shan Shiqi to bypass the area where there were still flames burning, and slaughtered the officers and soldiers. A group of people on their backs and blocked by the fire, Xuanzan and Guan Sheng were scattered and isolated, he had to lead dozens of horses to flee and gallop, there was a group of strong horses on the oblique side to intercept and kill, when the distance was still a little far, Xuanzan took out the bow and put a series of arrows to shoot five or six strongmen off the horse, when he saw the enemy rushing to the left, he immediately picked up the steel knife from the saddle to the victory, and the double ring was also like a strange eye, and then slapped the horse and scolded: "The grass thief, the one who blocks me is dead, and the one who avoids me lives!" ”
"I'm here to stop you! What are you going to do!? ”
Suddenly, Xuanzan listened to the oblique side of a violent shout, a horse rushed straight to his side, Shan Shiqi picked up the iron rod in his hand and hit Xuanzan's shoulder, Xuanzan was surprised to come to the strong leader of the gang in his hand The sound of the wind breaking was very violent, and he did not dare to slack off his life skills and fight with him.
The two horses intersected, and Shan Shiqi and Xuanzan only fought for more than ten times, and the surrounding officers and soldiers were all killed by the soldiers and horses under Shan Shiqi. Originally, Xuanzan was already anxious, but at this time, he heard someone on the oblique side shouting: "Is the ugly county Ma Xuanzan at your feet?" I've also heard of your name, and please come to my village to rest for a while, now your defeat is decided, and you can't do it!? ”
Xuanzan's expression changed immediately when he heard the voice, and when he looked sideways, he saw that Sun An, the general of the Wurui battalion, was also holding his double swords, and went straight to kill himself, and listened to "Boom!" A series of sword whistles rang out, and they also attacked directly towards their side! Xuanzan is already panicking, and the knife technique has also lost its discipline, and it is being seen by the mountain priest to find the boss's flaw, just wait for the stick to smash over, and the head of Xuanzan can be broken!
However, Shan Shiqi grabbed the iron rod in his hand tightly, and then left some strength to poke forward, and the end of the stick slammed into Xuanzan's chest. Xuanzan felt suffocated in his chest, his blood was surging non-stop, he snorted and fell off the horse, and when he was just knocked off the horse by Shan Shiqi, the surrounding strong soldiers and horses shouted in unison, and stepped forward to Xuanzan's general, and tied him up with all hands and feet!
And the two generals Wei Dingguo and Shan Tingqi led the army to cover the battle in front again. Seeing that Guan Sheng's officers and troops had been defeated and lost, and most of the men and horses were scattered and only wanted to flee for their lives, Wei Dingguo put his knife horizontally, and said with high spirits: "Rao is that Guan Sheng has helped his brother to make many achievements, and he is also a luxury figure, but he underestimated the two of us brothers, and he deserved to end up in this fiasco!" ”
Shan Tingqi was still very calm as always, he looked at the figure of Guan Sheng and other remnants of the soldiers who were gradually blurred, and said: "Originally, my firearms were mostly used to burn the enemy's siege equipment when defending the city, or to burn pontoon ships during water battles. The brother's method of fire attack is to find another way, and when the field battle is taken by surprise and attacked unprepared, ordinary enemy generals will inevitably be unable to parry when they meet them, but it is not that this level is victorious and has no way to lead the troops......
It's just that Guan Sheng is bound to fight against our cottage, but he thinks that he is a righteous man, and he also has a good relationship with Brother Xiao Tang, of course, it is unbearable to kill him, and now he can only use the original agreed method according to the plan, trying to capture him first, and not harm my two mountain brothers......"
.................
However, it was said that Guan Sheng led the remnants to flee all the way for more than ten miles, and rushed to the bank of the small river that had just crossed a knee deep. When the soldiers and horses were counted again, there were only nearly a thousand remnants left, and even if many soldiers and horses were still scattered in all directions, it would be difficult to gather the scattered people to regroup under such a situation.
Under the smoke and fire of the heat wave, Guan Sheng's red face was even redder, he was extremely ashamed in his heart, he didn't expect that Wei Dingguo really deserved his reputation, and he never expected that he would end up in such a miserable defeat in the first battle with the two mountain powerhouses in Qingzhou! What's more, there are only a few strongman leaders such as Sun An, Wei Dingguo, and Shan Tingjue, and the co-owners of the green forest and mountains, as well as Lu Zhishen, Lin Chong, Yang Zhi and many other well-known and well-known generals of Guan Sheng, have not yet been dispatched.
After counting the soldiers and horses, Guan Sheng found that Xuanzan was nowhere to be found, but he was afraid that he was also trapped in the soldiers and horses of the strong Kou when he fled. Seeing that Guan Sheng's face sank like water, Hao Siwen couldn't help but step forward and persuade: "Brother, don't be too worried, although Brother Xuanzan is very likely to fall into the hands of a strong man, but I heard that he is a reckless and loyal general in the two mountains of Qingzhou, and it may be possible for Brother Mo Xuanzan to kill immediately, and now he must quickly gather his soldiers and horses, and then make plans." ”
Guan Sheng laughed miserably when he heard this, and said in his heart that he had sent troops to attack the other party first, and now he was defeated in the hands of those two mountain strongmen, could it be that he still hoped for their benevolence and righteousness, and was willing to spare his brothers who were like his brothers?
It's just that under the current situation, the Qiang Kou want to take advantage of the situation to pursue, with the current strength and morale, it is absolutely difficult to resist, Guan Sheng also knows that only by continuing to retreat, while gathering the fleeing soldiers and horses, it is good to fight with the enemy, so he also led the soldiers and horses together with Hao Siwen to cross the river first, so as not to be intercepted by the Qiang Kou here.
The remnants of the officers and soldiers with low morale had just crossed the small river, and Guan Sheng, who was behind the palace at this time, suddenly heard the faint sound of thunder coming from the upper reaches of the estuary, and the water waves trembled more and more violently, and even Guan Sheng, who was still on the shore at this time, could feel the ground trembling faintly.
Guan Sheng was stunned at first, and then secretly screamed in his heart! Only then did he think of Wei Dingguo's ability to be praised as a Shenhuo general, although now he has really seen it, but in addition to Wei Dingguo, there is also a Shan Tingqi who is called the Holy Water General!
