409 Scorching Warfare
However, the development of the battle situation obviously surprised Wu Xiang again.
I saw that the 500 or so Datong cavalry suddenly turned over and dismounted together, and then I saw a burst of gunpowder smoke coming out of there, and the rogue cavalry that was charging on the opposite side suddenly turned over on their backs. It was only then that the sound of "babble" came.
"Sir, this is my military three-eyed gun, and the thief can't carry it!" A general immediately explained beside Wu Xiang.
Sure enough, the thief cavalry suddenly became a mess, and no of the thieves under that banner dared to charge again, they all turned their horses' heads to open the distance between them and the official army, or they turned around and ran back just now.
When the five hundred officers and soldiers saw this, they immediately rode and charged behind. When Wu Xiang saw it, he laughed happily. In the opposite army, Wang Jiayin was so angry that he scolded, just now, as long as he gritted his teeth and rushed forward again, the 500 officers and troops would definitely be wiped out!
His face was gloomy, and he hurriedly passed down the order of the alliance leader, asking several other leaders to meet the attack, and he must not let the official cavalry attack the infantry that had not been assembled.
"The firearms of the officers and soldiers are too powerful to stop!" The sweeping king fled back in a hurry and threw such a sentence to Wang Jiayin.
Ma Huihui followed behind and scolded: "The firearm of the official army is a three-plate axe, what are you fleeing, and my subordinates will run away!" ”
When the sweeping king heard this, he turned his head and scolded: "Don't think I don't know, what do you mean by hiding behind me when you charge?" ”
"I didn't mean it, I lured the officers and soldiers over, and everyone was powerless...... Ma Huihui immediately responded.
“……”
The other two leaders had also returned at this time, and joined in the war of words, accusing others of either hiding behind inwdently when charging, or fleeing at the sound of firecrackers, or saying that their men had suffered heavy casualties and cried miserably!
Wang Jiayin was upset, but he couldn't deal with it, people called you the leader of the alliance only because of your face. You have to dare to mess around, believe it or not, and rebel on the spot to show you.
He simply didn't hear it, and turned to look at the infantry again. It turned out that the infantry army was still in a mess, you bumped into me, I pushed you, and it was not over for a long time. This made him want to vomit blood, what kind of pig teammate!
At this time, the two cavalry armies in the distance met, and more than 1,500 cavalry could not stop the 500 officers and soldiers, and the exchange ratio between the two sides under the horses reached about five to one;
After the 500 officers and soldiers chiseled through the rogue cavalry, they did not stop at all, and continued to charge towards the rogue main formation. And those rogue cavalry were in chaos again, some were in a circle in place, some turned a corner, trying to pursue the five hundred cavalry from behind, and some charged to the official army's main formation, feeling wrong, looking back at their accomplices, and finding that only they were charging, they stopped and turned back.
"Sir, this is a good opportunity, and the last general will also rush at him!" One of the generals immediately asked for his life.
Wu Xiang was already relieved at this time, although there were many thieves, he really didn't have to worry about it, so he immediately nodded in agreement.
As a result, another 500 officers and soldiers left their camp and launched a charge.
When the thieves caught between the two armies saw each other, they reacted differently. So, in the sound of the three-eyed gun, the scene of the previous round was repeated.
Wang Jiayin saw that the infantry army was still not assembled, and the cavalry of the official army was about to rush in, and the formation was about to be in chaos, so he had no choice but to send a signal to let the Shen Yiyuan Department dispatch.
Originally, he meant to leave this trump card at the end, and make a thunderous blow after consuming the sharpness of the officers and soldiers, but now he can't care about it, and he just wants to block the officials and soldiers first.
Most of Shen Yiyuan's troops are border troops, unlike other leaders, who are mixed with military and civilians, and their combat effectiveness is low. After seeing the order of the alliance leader, he immediately attacked diagonally, and finally intercepted the more than 400 officers and soldiers who rushed first.
However, the winner has not yet been decided here, and the cavalry of the second wave of official troops has killed again. Shen Yiyuan's department suddenly panicked, and it seemed that he had the intention of abandoning the war.
Wang Jiayin was so angry that he couldn't say anything more, and hurriedly shouted that the other troops would charge together and intercept the second wave of cavalry together, or if the Shenyuan Division was defeated, he would be defeated with his own formation.
As soon as Wu Xiang saw the battle situation on that side, his own formation no longer rested, and immediately sent another 500 cavalry to attack. He stroked his long beard and smiled at the battlefield. The most annoying thing for the thief is to keep running away, and now looking at this formation, it seems that he wants to ambush himself, hehe, just right, he will fight a decisive battle with the thief here, and he will save himself from chasing after the thief and keep running, so that the skin of his legs is about to wear out.
There shouldn't be much way to leave Dai County here, and after defeating the main force of the thieves, Dai County was just cleared in one fell swoop. In this way, the credit for rescuing Dai County and encircling and suppressing the thieves is the biggest one. So many thieves are determined by a battle, hehe, this credit is definitely not small.
However, just as Wu Xiang was dreaming, the battle situation was no longer one-sided. Either the thieves knew that they couldn't be defeated again, or Wang Jiayin also went into battle in person, which boosted morale, and finally fought a draw with the official army.
"Sir, it's time for us to attack, we will be able to give the thief the final blow!" The generals around him immediately prayed.
When Wu Xiang heard this, he looked at the sunset that was already evening, and then looked at the dense thieves on the battlefield, he was afraid that there were tens of thousands of people, but he suddenly hesitated in his heart. What if I rush up again and fall into a bitter battle again?
"Sir, give the order!" The general was a little anxious, and hurriedly asked again, "Our army has been chasing the thieves without rest, it is not conducive to a long-term battle, so we should fight quickly!" ”
Wu Xiang was still a little hesitant, and after looking at the battlefield again, he said: "Mingjin collects the troops and fights again in the future!" ”
When the general heard this, he wanted to say something more, but thinking about Wu Xiang's personality, he finally gave up persuasion.
In fact, at this time, the officers and soldiers on the battlefield saw that there was no movement in the rear, and they were already assembling to break through. As soon as the sound of gold sounded, the action of breaking through suddenly became faster.
Another cavalry army rushed out from the side of the official army's main formation, covering the cavalry troops who received the battlefield to leave the battlefield and return to their main formation. Some of those thieves wanted to pursue, and some had no intention of pursuing at all, and they were bombarded by the three-eyed gun, so they each returned to their own teams and looked for their own mothers.
The sun sets, leaving only the afterglow. Wu Xiang's face was a little unsightly, and more than 300 of the more than 1,000 cavalry troops sent out were killed or wounded. This is also due to the well-equipped officers and soldiers, otherwise there would have been more casualties. However, his subordinate generals were nothing, and they cheered him up one after another.
"Sir, the thieves have killed and injured more than 3,000 people, and they can't hold on."
"Yes, sir, it's just these thieves, if you don't have the strength to chase them for a day today, you will definitely be able to defeat these thieves."
"Sir, these thieves don't know how to fight at all, and when we avoid the border army among the thieves tomorrow, we will catch those thieves who can't fight and attack them, and we will definitely be able to defeat them!"
