Chapter 1177: The Rise of the Republic XXIII

All 54 cannons were sprayed with iron sand shells in a matter of a few dozen breaths, and a 300-pace-wide "life exclusion zone" was created in front of the artillery position. The deadly iron sand flew in all directions like the scythe of death, and the subordinates of the Great King of Ahu and the Three Great Kings of Zhao screamed and were swept away in rows. Even if some people were really favored by the Immortal Heaven and were not hit by the dense iron sand like raindrops, their fate would not be much better. Because the roar of the cannon at close range was so terrible, and all the horses under their crotches were frightened, and they scurried uncontrollably, and the knights on horseback could do nothing but hold the horse's neck tightly to prevent themselves from falling, and became a live target for the crossbowmen of the eighth general of the Republican Army who rushed up from behind the artillery position!

Although the Khitan iron cavalry that followed behind the female direct cavalry of the Shunguo Department was not attacked by the iron sand bullets, they did not dare to move forward.

The "demon law" of the Youzhou Army is more powerful than imagined! I don't know what the hell is going on, so I killed all the warriors of the Shunguo Department who had fallen into blood mold for eight lifetimes. If you rush up again, isn't it a death sentence?

Just when these Khitan cavalry stopped their horses and wanted to turn around. The Republican Army's signature shouts are back!

"Save the principles of heaven, destroy the Hulu, divide the fields, ......"

It turned out that the pikemen of the eighth general had already crossed the artillery position with four columns, and then formed a horizontal formation as they marched, and began to attack the Khitan cavalry, who were a little stupid by the shelling.

Monk Zhu Da and Monk Zhu Er are really awesome this time, a group of infantry carrying spears and launching a charge against the armored cavalry!

They were actually forced to be so violent. Because Wu Yan fell to his death on the battlefield, no matter how you say it, he was killed. The first army was about to be killed, and it failed to defeat the enemy, and finally took the initiative to withdraw from the battlefield, and there were few armor leaders brought back. Of course, it was judged to be "defeated", and a collective "defeated" was recorded. This is not a joke, it is a major event that will affect the division of land in the future. It must be offset by a collective "medium strength".

Otherwise, no matter how much an individual obtains a head, he will not be able to obtain land and citizenship.

So now that I have the opportunity again, of course, I can't let it go. Therefore, a group of pikemen saw that the iron cavalry of the Khitans refused to rush, so they didn't bother others, so they went up by themselves!

The Flying Dragon Armor Rider's Xiang Wen Xiao Yao Master saw a group of infantry rushing over with spears in hand, and suddenly an unreal feeling came to his heart. The cavalry behind him had been stupefied by the destruction of Shunguo Nuzhi, and if there was a value to indicate their morale, it would definitely be a negative value. Seeing a group of crazy pikemen, where is the courage to resist?

Even if you can resist the pikemen of the Youzhou Army, what can you do when someone else's big tube releases a demon method again?

Let's withdraw first...... Saving your life is the most important thing!

As soon as Xiao Yaoshi thought of turning in, the sound of horses' hooves behind him was already ringing, and he looked back and found that the flying dragon armor under his hand had already turned around and slipped away.

"So cowardly, are you still worthy of being a great Khitan nation? What a shame! ”

After cursing in his heart, Pharmacist Xiao did not hesitate to turn around and run towards his own front.

Shame on you! When are the men on the grassland afraid of being ashamed? Saving your life is all that matters. Those pikemen of the Youzhou Army don't look normal, what do you have to do with them?

Boom Boom Boom ......

Xiao Yaoshi ran a few steps, and the sound of shelling came from behind his ears. It turned out that the artillery that had just withdrawn from the position (in the Youzhou army, artillery is more precious than artillery, so it is better to lose the artillery than to damage the artillery, besides, the Liao people don't know how to destroy the artillery) Seeing that the Liao people did not occupy their positions, they turned around and continued to fire artillery.

Because the Republican artillery position was laid on an unfinished seawall, it was possible to let the shells pass over the heads of the infantry in front and fall on the Liao army's battle formation more than two miles away to continue to break the ice.

Seeing that the shells kept falling down, and the cavalry in front was repulsed, the Khitan dismounted cavalry, which was already demoralized, finally couldn't collapse and retreated back one after another. But not far behind them is the sea, in fact, they are fighting against the sea. And the closer you get to the rolling sea, the thinner the thickness of the ice, and if you step on it, you don't need to kill it with the Youzhou army, and you will drown.

Xiao Xianxian, who knew that he couldn't retreat and had no way out, was also anxious. This battle was fought so well, why did it collapse all of a sudden?

This is a battle related to the life and death of the Great Liao Kingdom!

Xiao Fengxian, who was anxious, sent people to Yelu Yanxi, who had set up a formation outside the city of Lushun Mansion, and at the same time sent his own personal guards to stop the dismounted cavalry located in the center of the "One Word Long Snake Formation". He also slashed a group of soldiers who escaped from the battle, and finally stabilized the battle line temporarily.

However, Xiao Fengxian was able to block the retreating dismounted cavalry, but it was difficult to reorganize the formation for a while. In addition, the more than 1,000 armored cavalry that retreated from the front panicked and directly collided with the chaotic Khitan dismounted cavalry. Then they were stuck there, unable to enter, and had no way out.

The republican shells followed and fell, beside these Khitan armored horsemen. Each shell can smash over a few Khitan warriors, and by the way, stir up a cluster of water columns.

The frightened Khitan knights and dismounted cavalry all rushed towards the sea in a panic, but they were blocked by Xiao Fengxian's own soldiers. I had to huddle together!

Just when they had no way to escape, the pikemen of the Republican army were already in formation. Zuo Changyu, who has just taken over the eighth general, really has a set. Seeing the effect of the bombardment of iron sand shells, he knew that the cavalry of the Khitans could not bear it. So without hesitation, he threw in all the eighteen-captain spearmen. More than 2,000 pikemen, forming a four-column horizontal formation, marched in unison on the open ice, followed by many sword and shield soldiers and crossbowmen, pressing up together.

The spears in the first two rows of the pikemen array had been flattened at this time, and more than 1,000 Zhangba spears were pierced into the Khitan soldiers who were in a mess. At the same time, waves of iron bumps fell from the sky.

The battle is fought to this extent, let alone the Liao soldiers, let the republican army change its position, it will not be able to bear it!

Xiao Fengxian didn't give up, and he couldn't give up. Bite the bullet where to die! The Khitan generals, who were forced to be helpless, really had no way to resist the more than 2,000 pikemen who had been arrayed, so they had to squeeze back desperately. As a result, more and more people and more than 1,000 people and more than 1,000 horses were compressed on a rather narrow ice.

And the ice that they stepped on under their feet was hit hard by at least a few hundred shells, and it was already a hole.

After all, solid ice is not steel, and at this point, it really can't bear the weight of so many people and horses.

Suddenly, the loud "click" of the ice cracking rang in people's ears. The sound was terrifying, like the sound of the gates of hell opening.

Not only the Khitans, but even the Republican soldiers like Monk Zhu Da and Monk Zhu Er were frightened, and they even forgot about stabbing people with Zhangba spears.

The Khitans who were stabbed by them were even worse, and they didn't even dare to move, but just looked down at their feet, for fear that the ice would shatter with a click.

But the artillery shelling of the Republican army had not stopped, and a new round of salvo threw 54 iron bumps, which smashed on the ice with a clatter!

"Broken, broken......"

All the people were shouting, including Monk Zhu Da and Monk Zhu Er, who were just as scared as the Liao people. With the current temperature, where is there a way to survive if you fall into the sea? No matter how good the water is, it will die. And they're still wearing armor......

"Retreat! Retreat! ”

The order to retreat was conveyed by shouting and whistle. The republican spearmen, who were still menacing just now, immediately turned around and fled, fleeing faster than when they were chasing the Khitan cavalry just now!

When the Khitans saw them running away, they all spread their minds and ran away...... It's chasing the pikemen of the Republican Army!

The soldiers who lost the battle are chasing the soldiers who have won the battle, which is probably a strange story in the history of war.

I don't know if it was the republican shells that finally smashed the ice, or the crowded Khitan soldiers and horses rushed to smash the ice. In short, just as the crowd was surging, after a loud "click" sound, the ice suddenly shattered.

This fragment is not a line, but a large piece. The people standing on it all sank down, not one or two, but countless people, who were still alive just now, and now they all sink together. It's like an American disaster movie in the future!

Those who witnessed this scene were all dumbfounded. The people standing on the shore were better, and the people standing on the ice were scared to death.

It turns out that the ice under my feet is not solid, and it will break...... This is tofu dregs!

Not only were the Khitans frightened, but even the officers and soldiers of the sixth and seventh generals of the Republican Army, who were attacking the left flank of the Khitan army, were also frightened. They're standing on the ice, too! It's not going to fall, is it? For a while, they even forgot about the battle, and they all froze there, staring at the Khitan warriors opposite, and no one dared to move.

Monk Zhu and his group ran away desperately, and even the formation was scattered, and many Liao soldiers ran faster than them, and actually "caught up" with them, but they didn't fight, but two groups of people ran together, making it almost like a race. In this way, the big guys ran together to the artillery positions of the Republican Army...... When I ran to the beach, I was all tired and lay down. I didn't care about fighting, I sat on the snow and gasped.

So the artillery of the republican army rushed out of their positions and captured all the Khitan generals who rushed towards them, and after the battle, they counted and captured as many as two or three thousand!

Later, for the ownership of these prisoners, Zuo Changyu and Luo Gang quarreled for two months, and even Ma Zheng didn't know what to do, so he had to report to Wu Haogu, and only then did he give a way that everyone was happy with - 2,000 prisoners of war were recorded in the merit books of the artillery and the eighth general......
