Chapter 332: Blood Xiucai
The attack of the Dacheng army, which did not remember the casualties, finally allowed them to rush to a distance of thirty paces. At this distance, the archers were finally able to return fire, and a sparse array of arrows shot from the rear of the Dacheng army.
The helmet and cuirass of the Changxing army defended well against the arrows of the Dacheng army, and there were no heavy arrows used by the Jurchens, so they did not want to break through the cuirass of the Changxing army.
Even the occasional arrow that hit the limbs only injured the soldiers of the Changxing Army, and the spear and shield soldiers in the front row kept squatting on the ground.
The long squatting position caused each of them to start to tingle in their legs, and a young soldier began to complain.
"The bullshit Dacheng army hasn't hit it for a long time, and the legs of the old man are numb!" Everyone laughed at his words.
While letting the artillery fire, Liu Xitian beckoned the soldiers to push the two Chuyang cannons to move to the sides of the team.
He wants to surprise the Dacheng army, the muzzle of the early sun is powerful. Loading thousands of lead bullets at a time is not a problem, so many lead bullet salvos will definitely give Dacheng Army a big gift.
When Liu Xitian pushed the Chuyang cannon to the sides of the team, the Dacheng army had already rushed to twenty steps. Facing the Dacheng army that was close at hand, it was the first time that the Chuyang Cannon fired shells at such a distance.
Gunpowder smoke rose up, and thousands of projectiles fanned out to the Dacheng army in front. The Dacheng army, which was still gritting its teeth and charging at the beginning, was beaten into a pile of minced meat, and blood mist was generated in the front row of the Dacheng army.
A single shot emptied a large area, and a dense barrage of buckshot knocked down all standing creatures within fifty paces of it.
The Primal Sun Cannon on the other side also roared, creating a no-man's land there. The offensive of the Dacheng army, which was originally attacking frantically, was weak, and some timid soldiers began to stop. Although he did not escape, he was on the verge of collapse.
At this time, Yu Hongzhi's team of warlords and Xu Hongru's reinforcements also came to a mile away, and their arrival discouraged the soldiers who wanted to escape.
Yu Hongzhi, who was on the fly, keenly discovered that only the officers and soldiers in front of him were sharp. Although the officers and soldiers on both sides also had firearms, the killing effect was not satisfactory.
Seeing this, a smile appeared on his face, as long as there were flaws. If all the officers and soldiers were to face the enemy so difficult, there would be no need to fight, and it would be wise to turn around and flee.
"Pass the order! Attack both wings of the officers and troops! Yu Hongzhi's military order was soon passed down, and the main force of the Dacheng army was divided to the left and right, and no longer blindly attacked the middle road.
The three-way attack suddenly increased the pressure on the two wings, and Sanyang's men and horses suddenly rose up.
It is not a problem for them to deal with the Dacheng army, but the number of the Dacheng army is too much. Gradually, there was a tendency to surround the officers and troops, and Yang Guodong's army on the left could not withstand it at least.
His army slowly retreated under the pressure of the Dacheng army, and the slightest mistake would break up.
Seeing this, Yu Hongzhi immediately smiled, as long as the left-wing officers and troops were defeated, the frontal artillery would be overwhelmed by his own sea of people.
Right now! The gate of Pingyin County opened, and a thousand-strong army of officers and soldiers came out. At the forefront was a scholar in a robe, who was armed with a bow and arrows and carried an arrow bag.
While running quickly, he reached out and drew three arrows from his back, and shot them at the Daesung army attacking the left flank in a series of arrows.
......
After Wu Shuang saw the whole army of Dacheng pressing on him, he sweated for the officers and soldiers outside the city. Once the officers and troops outside the city were defeated, they would not be able to hold out for long.
Fortunately, the artillery attack of the Changxing army in front not only blocked the attack of the Dacheng army, but also caused the enemy to pay heavy casualties.
But when the Dacheng army aimed its troops at the two wings, the crisis finally appeared. As long as the two wings collapse, even if the Changxing army's guns are attacking, they will be cut down by the Dacheng army at close range.
Seeing this, Wu Shuang arched his hand to Liao Dong and said, "Lord Dusi! The decisive battle is today, and the students are not willing to lead the troops out of the city to fight the White Lotus Demon in a decisive battle! ”
Liao Dong fell into deep thought, and the forces in the city had been killed and wounded in the past few days of defending the city. The only thing left to fight is his thousand-man team, which is the capital he intends to use to escape for his life at the most critical moment.
Now the outcome outside the city is unpredictable, and if you are defeated, you will have no chance to turn over.
Just as he was deep in thought, Wu Shuang said, "My lord! Once the battle outside the city is defeated, can we still hold the White Lotus Demon who has won a great victory? Once the White Lotus Demon gets the artillery, can Pingyin County still be defended? ”
Liao Dong couldn't help but shudder when he heard the artillery, he had already seen the power of the heavy artillery just now.
Once you hit the city a few times, no matter how strong the walls are, you can't resist it. Wu Shuang's last words made Liao Dong make up his mind, and he reached out and punched Wu Shuang's chest and said, "Okay! Open the gates and go out of the city for a decisive battle! ”
"It's better for your lordship to stay in the city!" Wu Shuang said again.
Liao Dong couldn't help but show an angry face: "Show talent! Don't you think that Liao is greedy for life and afraid of death? ”
Wu Shuang shook his head and said, "Where did the adults say?" Your Excellency should sit in Pingyin County, and if the war is unfavorable, it will be good to accept us and others into the city. If you can break the White Lotus Demon, it will not be too late for the adults to lead the young men of Pingyin County out of the city! ”
Liao Dong listened to Wu Shuang's words and felt that it made sense, it was good that eggs could not be put in one basket.
He turned to the more than 1,000 soldiers gathered at the gate of the city and said, "Today, when you go out of the city with Xiucai, you will have to obey Xiucai's command." If there is a violation of military law! ”
Wu Shuang, under the loud consent of the soldiers, led a thousand elite soldiers to kill out of Pingyin County. Went straight to the left flank of the official army, and before it was close, Wu Shuang's continuous arrow method made the Dacheng army pay a few casualties.
The cold weapon duel will be the courage of the soldiers. The main general, who takes the lead and has unparalleled combat power, can raise the morale of the whole army.
Wu Shuang's astonishing performance boosted the morale of the soldiers behind him, and they screamed and crashed into the flank of the Dacheng army.
Many Dacheng troops recognized Wu Shuang, and the siege of the city in the past few days has made Wu Shuang quite famous in the Dacheng army. A bow in his hand is like a killing god possessed. often killed covered in blood, which frightened the enemy, and the soldiers of the Dacheng Army secretly nicknamed Wu Shuang "Blood Xiucai".
Wu Shuang was originally dressed in white, and after days of hard fighting, he had already lost his fortune, and the blood splashed on his body also coagulated into brown blood scabs.
Before the man could get closer, he smelled the pungent blood. Among the soldiers of the Dacheng Army, an exclamation sounded: "The blood show is here!" ”
Hearing the three words of Xuexiucai, many Dacheng troops turned around and ran. The Dacheng army, which had also defeated Yang Guodong on the left flank, finally stabilized the defense line with the support of Wu Shuang's army.
Yu Hongzhi was stunned in the rear, and he was about to succeed if he wanted to see it, but he was actually destroyed by Xuexiucai.
"Someone! Attack the left flank with all your might, and let the old brethren go up. I want to see the corpse of Blood Xiucai! ”
