Chapter 262: Battlefield Meat Mill
As soon as Yang Xiuqing received Yang Xiuqing's instructions, he used various means or contact with Ye Youji to distinguish the location of the enemy Hu generals, and reported them all to Yang Xiuqing one by one.
And at this moment, the frontal Hu cavalry has begun to attack, tens of thousands of cavalry from all directions, although this is the decisive battle place carefully selected by Ye Youji, but in general, it is still a flat land.
"Rush, Yongtumen." A general yelled and swung his saber and rushed over, just as he approached the camp of the soldiers.
"Fire." The commander of the son and mother of the cannon on the chariot in front of the battle decisively gave the order to fire, and in an instant, countless sons and mothers opened fire, and the Hu people fell in pieces, but the Hu cavalry that came behind did not impact in a little chaotic formation, but the son and mother changed the medicine very quickly, but when he changed the medicine, the Hu people's light arrow rain had already come.
A rain of arrows rushed down at the soldiers in front of the formation, fortunately the soldiers were all armored, but even so, there were still casualties, but the Hu people had to shoot a burst of arrows and were wiped out by the guns, and the Hu cavalry fell down in pieces, and there was a steady stream of Hu cavalry rushing behind them.
Some of the soldiers who had just joined the battle were pale, firstly, they were frightened by the tragic scene in front of them, and secondly, the enemy was too fierce and was not afraid of death at all, but they just rushed straight over, even if they saw with their own eyes that some Hu people had been wounded by gunshot wounds, or rushed over on horseback, they couldn't stand it, but fortunately, most of the infantry in front of them were old-fashioned infantry, and their eyes were also staring at Hu people coldly like spitting fire.
These people also got Yang Xiuqing's rare order, and they also knew what the welfare of the soldiers Yang Xiuqing was afraid of, that is, the status, gold and silver, and the future of their descendants, plus the previous tragic scenes not only did not frighten them, but also aroused their fighting spirit, so they simply eliminated the fear of those recruits, so that the guns continued, even if the Hu people on the opposite side rushed to the front from time to time to shoot the rain of arrows, they still calmly loaded and fired.
And in front of Ye Youji, there was a new type of gun around them, and they were six in a row, shooting in front continuously, he looked at the cavalry who were still rushing over with a cold face, and he said fiercely with his eyes: "Come on, scarf forward, forward, let them know what bravery." ”
Ye Youji also wanted to try whether they could fight back under the premise that they had powerful firearms under the impact of the cavalry, and with Ye Youji's order conveyed, they the old batch of soldiers began to move forward, and they were still loading and firing during the advance process, especially the chariot in front of them was changing dressings while advancing and firing scattered bullets, and at this time, the first Hu general in the Hu cavalry blew his beard and stared at the infantry who were pushing back with unexpectedness.
"Damn, I really think Lao Tzu is a sick cat." After General Hu finished venting, he looked at the guards beside him with red eyes and ordered: "Give Lao Tzu Chong, if you can eliminate them, then Lao Tzu doesn't have to go on the grassland." ”
Not at this moment, with a burst of cannon sounds, Hu Jiang was instantly blown into minced meat, and there was no one around him, the artillerymen who had been ordered by Yang Xiuqing, after they found the direction, after measuring, the fire began a new round of shelling, this Hu will be a thousand generals, he just rode in front of the formation and, because he was too close to Wanhu and was shelled and died, I don't know how he died.
As the front-line generals were killed by artillery bombardment, the Hu cavalry on Ye Youji's side began to mess up the formation, especially with Ye Youji's advance, the Hu people began to disperse, and finally, this Hu began to retreat.
"Stop." When he saw that the Hu people had retreated, Ye Youji immediately ordered to stop advancing, "Retreat, ask for cross-retreat and always be vigilant." ”
And Yang Xiuqing was dumbfounded when he saw that after the shelling, one of the cavalry generals immediately broke up, and he didn't expect such an effect, but after a while, he was excited again, which proved that Hu Ren's mental capacity was also limited.
"Young Master, Hu Qi has retreated from all sides." Yang Er ran to Yang Xiuqing to report back.
Yang Xiuqing squinted at Ye Youji's side, he thought for a while, and then ordered: "Let the eldest prince personally lead our 20,000 cavalry to counterattack, but don't fall in love with the battle, you will return at the first touch, you have to be optimistic about the eldest prince, don't let it mess around." “
"Yes, young master."
When Yang Er found the eldest prince who was killing sheep, the eldest prince looked at Yang Er with disbelief: "Really, let me lead the troops, or your one-man two-rider elite horseman." ”
"Well, hurry up, the enemy is almost gone." Yang Ercui urged.
When the eldest prince heard this, he didn't say a word, and as soon as he put the sheep killing knife in his hand, he immediately ran to the subordinates on the side, and he didn't care whether the other party's seat was a good horse, he turned over and got on the horse directly: "Go." ”
A moment later, the twenty thousand elite horsemen who had been ready for a long time immediately rushed over with the eldest prince and Yang Er in the direction of Ye Youji.
"Rush." This time, the eldest prince not only came with Yang Xiuqing's 20,000 elite horses, but also brought his seven or eight thousand horsemen with the remaining horses from the war to impact together.
As soon as the cavalry approached Hu Cai, they raised their three eyes and lit a fire, Hu Cai did not react, a burst of gunfire rang out, they fell down one after another, especially the soldiers they were all rushing over with red eyes, they just had nothing to do behind the formation, then they were like evil dragons out of the trap.
"Ah, go back and fight with them." When a general saw his subordinates being knocked down by a cold gun from behind, he angrily ordered his subordinates to turn their heads and tear them back.
Yang Er marveled at Hu Ren's wonderful riding skills, even if he could completely turn his head and recoil, but he still fired a ruthless gunfire, and when the hand-to-hand combat was encountered, he pulled out his sword and shouted loudly: "Kill, the front is military merit, it is a woman, and it is the future." ”
As Yang Er's shouting was conveyed, the morale of more than 20,000 cavalry was greatly boosted and they drew their swords to fight, because most of the Hu generals in Ye Youji's direction had been lost by the artillery fire, so they were afraid that Hu Cai's fierce would not be afraid of death, but in the face of the ghost cavalry who were also not alive and well equipped, they only seemed extremely incompetent.
Only half an hour later, Hu Qi left more than 10,000 horses, but just when the eldest prince wanted to continue to rush to the peak, the sharp-eyed Yang Er had already noticed that there were many Hu horses behind him, and he immediately pulled the eldest prince.
"Take it when you see it, let's go." Yang Er said calmly.
The eldest prince looked at the defeated Hu cavalry hatefully, but he also noticed those who came not far away at this time, so he had to unwillingly obey Yang Er's words and retreat, and they retreated with more than 20,000 cavalry to change horses.
Ye Youji was already ready to meet Yang Er, but when Hu Qi saw the ghost rider retreating, they didn't continue to chase but just packed up the wounded soldiers and some scattered war horses, but Ye Youji didn't continue to fight them, just let the soldiers rest and eat quickly.
At this time, the second prince stood in front of the formation very calmly, and he stared at the battle between Hu Cai and the soldiers, even if he saw Hu Cai retreating in defeat, he did not have the slightest change in his face, but just watched coldly, and then ordered to retreat after seeing the defeat and retreat.
"King Zhongyi, you take 100,000 cavalry, give it to me, don't stop." As soon as the retreat was over, the second prince here ordered to attack again.
"Yes, my lord."
When Yang Xiuqing just started the fire and was about to roast the sheep, he found that Hu Qi was attacking again, and the number of people was much larger.
"Look, eldest prince, what kind of tribe is that, and what is the combat power." Yang Xiuqing asked, pointing to the attacking cavalry.
"Well, they're going to fight hard, don't look at them messy, but most of them are evil slaves, especially some wild horse thieves, and they will do anything to win." The eldest prince said seriously.
At this time, the eldest prince became more and more confident in Yang Xiuqing's victory, especially seeing that Yang Xiuqing did not have many casualties at this time, especially the momentum of the battle, it was really brave.
"Well, tell the artillery to start firing at all." Yang Xiuqing had tasted the sweetness of artillery bombardment against enemy generals, and he immediately thought of artillery.
This time Ye Youji did not ask the infantry to advance, but only told them to steadily counterattack, when the cavalry came, they shot steadily, charged, and fired again, when the cavalry in front of them seemed to be nothing.
However, as the Hu cavalry rushed over like a moth to a fire, the infantry had already begun to die, and those Hu cavalry who passed by pulled heavy arrows, and one arrow shot the soldiers in cotton armor through the body, and the commander of the son and mother in front of the chariot saw that Hu Cai was coming, and when he had no survivors, most of them concentrated the gunpowder according to the requirements, and died with the Hu cavalry.
When Ye Youji saw that the soldiers of the sub-mother cannon had died with Hu Qi, he stared at Hu Qi with angry eyes, except for shouting and shooting, he had no way at all, even if he saw that Hu Cai's casualties were greater than him, his heart was like a drop of blood.
When that side was overly advanced by the Hu cavalry, the artillery concentrated fire to the gap, which made the Hu cavalry advance all the branches, as the battle progressed, the Hu cavalry advanced more and more times, although finally repulsed, but the infantry still suffered a large number of casualties.
When Yang Xiuqing received that the number of casualties of the infantry reached 40,000, he felt a pain in his heart, even if it was said that the casualties of the Hu cavalry had reached at least 80,000 or 90,000, but he still felt that he had suffered a loss, you must know that each training of his musketeers cost more than the enemy's cavalry, especially those new types of sub-cannons, which were piled up with money, but by this time they had lost 100 guns, which meant that 100 squads had been eliminated.
Yang Xiuqing looked up at the darkening sky, he gritted his teeth and ordered: "Let the artillery go far down, load all the loose bullets, and fight Lao Tzu with all your might." ”
Yang Xiuqing was ready to fight with the second prince to the end at this time, Yang Xiuqing thought at this time, there are so many Hu elites here, even if they kill all their infantry, as long as they eliminate all the Hu elites here, it will be a huge victory.
But as soon as Yang Xiuqing's words fell, Ye Youji, who happened to come here, heard Yang Xiuqing's words, and he quickly shouted in his heart: "Wait, Yang boy can't be impulsive, don't be impulsive." ”
