Chapter 19: Charge

The mountains and the sea are overwhelming, and the momentum is like a rainbow!

Yuan Yun muttered two sentences repeatedly in his mouth, and then began to watch very excitedly as the black-pressed Karasuma cavalry rushed towards them, their speed was very fast, and the dust rolled up behind them almost covered the sky and the sun, like a sandstorm.

The 20,000 Karasuma cavalry on the left flank chose to charge all at once this time, they didn't care about the number of casualties, what they cared about was whether they could take down the five monsters of the Gunpowder Army in front of them, because this had become a nightmare for the Karasuma people, and they couldn't sleep peacefully until they were completely destroyed.

Zhang Liao was still very patient, just standing coldly at the top of the tank guard, and then looked at the black clouds that were pressing in the distance, the heralds around him had begun to sweat on their cheeks, but he was still as steady as Mount Tai.

Finally, when the Karasuma cavalry approached a mile of land, Zhang Liao shouted: "Open the cannon!" ”

The herald was relieved, and immediately waved the flag and began to give the order to fire, and then the rows of artillery began to rage wildly without impunity, and the entire Gunpowder Army camp, surrounded by five tanks, could not be heard in an instant.

The dense cannonballs instantly overturned the cavalry in the front row and fell off their horses, and then they were trampled into flesh by the dense hooves of the horses behind, and then the cavalry who had just crushed their own people were also knocked off their horses by a huge explosion, and their fate was as cruel as that.

But even with all this cruelty, the cavalry behind continued to pour out of the smoke and dust like a tide, as if there was a steady stream of knights, and the horses were spitting and spitting, all running at the fastest speed, and no one could listen to them at such a time.

Yuan Yun was dressed in black armor, standing on the deck and looking at the Karasuma people who were charging so wildly, he couldn't help but have a trace of awe in his heart, no wonder these people could wreak havoc on the northern border for so long, it was really the other party who was indeed extremely brave, it was just to the point of outrageousness, life was like a shooting star for them, and what they were pursuing was the most dazzling moment, such as this kind of heroic sacrifice.

Seeing that these cavalry fell in batches, and then a new batch followed, and the distance immediately began to shorten, even Yuan Yun felt that the other party was about to succeed, but at this moment, in the Karasuma cavalry regiment at the front, there was a desperate sound.

The mines finally began to play a role, Zhang Liao did these fortifications very quickly, and at this moment he had planted a dense mine array on the left flank of the camp, which was now a dead land, and even the engineers who planted the mines themselves did not dare to enter easily.

The explosion continued, and the Karasuma Knights who were the first to arrive were short-lived, and in an instant, they all turned into black shadows in the dust and smoke, and then they lay quietly on the cold floor.

At this moment, the Karasuma people still did not stop charging, or had half a plan to retreat, they seemed to have made up their minds, they were all going to be destroyed here today, this kind of crazy behavior, in addition to creating more dead corpses, can also deter the enemy, and now Yuan Yun is not lightly shocked.

"Are these people crazy?" Yuan Yun muttered.

Guo Jia looked at the groups of cavalry that were still charging, and could only frown: "These people have completely handed over the hope of victory to the cavalry regiment that is rushing from the right flank, and their sacrifice is to buy time for those people, and they also plan to rely on the number of people to consume us." ”

Yuan Yun could only sigh deeply when he heard Guo Jia say this, and then looked at the right wing of the Gunpowder Army camp, and then shook his head and said: "They will definitely die, General Zhang Liao is now using only the artillery on the left flank, and the right flank is still intact and on standby." ”

Burst! Burst! Burst!

As Yuan Yun spoke, rows of arrows finally shot at the sturdy guards, some leaped over them, and then shot into the camp, immediately killing and wounding some of the engineers who were preparing the artillery.

Yuan Yun turned his head and looked at the battle again, some Karasuma knights actually managed to pass through the mine array, and then immediately began to bend their bows and arrows, and in an instant, rows of black arrow feathers flew like lightning.

More and more enemies passed through the minefield, and at the same time, the flying arrow feathers began to dense, and the enemy finally succeeded in launching a wave of attacks, but in front of the tank's sturdy guards, these arrow feathers were limited in attack power after all.

Zhang Liao was still very calm, completely ignoring the arrow feathers that kept shooting in front of him, and quickly gave the order, and then the steel crossbowman immediately showed his head from behind the guard, and then the crossbow arrows that were faster than the arrows of the Karasuma people shot out, and the cavalry who had finally broken out of the mine array instantly lay down.

At this time, the mines had really been used by the living people, and they had to make a way out, and such a large number of cavalry could finally pour into the front of the gunpowder army, and they were all good at bows and arrows, and they rode directly on horseback and began to shoot arrows wildly.

It's just that these Karasuma cavalry were quickly defeated in the process of firing at the Gunpowder Army, and several rounds of confrontation were suppressed by the more powerful steel crossbows of the Gunpowder Army, and they could only rely on horses to keep roaming around the periphery, and from time to time put two arrows.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The musketeers finally came into play, and rows of projectiles knocked down many Karasuma cavalry at a speed that was simply invisible, and they had no idea what the other side was using, and they were all engaged in witchcraft, so some of them began to panic, and the timing of the horses began to be unstable, and they were soon killed by the constant fire of musket projectiles.

After clearing this group of knights who had arrived nearby, the follow-up Karasuma people finally began to slow down the speed of the attack, not because they didn't want to, but because they couldn't, Zhang Liao loaded all the petrol bombs when he let the artillery fire the second round, which immediately set up a musket in the middle of the Karasuma cavalry charging route, which was impossible to cross at all.

And these cavalrymen, who were blocked by muskets, could only watch their brothers fall in front of them, or be mercilessly shot, and they kept shouting very fierce trumpets in their mouths, but they could not help at all.

"Formation, move to the right flank!" Zhang Liao's order came again, and the huge tank immediately began to spit out thick black smoke, and then the entire Powder Army camp began to move towards the right flank.

After Guo Jia heard Zhang Liao's order, a smile immediately appeared on the corner of his mouth, and then he smiled at Yuan Yun: "When Lu Bu was exterminated at the beginning, Cao Ang Shizi tried his best to guarantee General Zhang Liao, at that time, everyone felt that the prince was a little inexplicable, and even a little overstepping, after all, this Zhang Liao almost killed the lord back then, but no one expected that this General Zhang Liao was indeed such a capable person, he commanded the battle smoothly, everything seemed very smooth, there was nothing wrong with it, such a good talent was cheap Luoyang." ”

Speaking of this, Guo Jia paused slightly, then looked at Yuan Yun's eyes and said: "I heard that Yuan Hou is still sending people around looking for some people, and now many unknown people have gone to Luoyang, these people all look ordinary, but as long as they stay in Luoyang for a while, they can immediately become capable of topping the sky, I really don't know what method Yuan Hou used?" Can you give me a little clarification about Guo Jia? ”

Yuan Yun chuckled in his heart, fortunately Guo Jia asked so, if Cao Cao was replaced, I really don't know how to answer, I don't have to worry now, Guo Jia, just fool him, anyway, the other party must guess that he is fooling, and he can't be deceived.

After thinking about it, Yuan Yun replied shamelessly: "Guess! ”

Guo Jia's face changed, and he wanted to answer Yuan Yun: "Guess your big-headed ghost!" But since the other party was unwilling to say it, even if he forced the estimate, he could only get another lie, so he could only smile bitterly and be regarded as exposing the matter.

Soon, the artillery on the right flank finally rang out, and the sound shook the heavens and the earth as the left flank just now, and then a large number of voices and horses began to come uninterruptedly, and it was inevitable that it would come to a miserable end.

Yuan Yun didn't choose to watch the battle this time, because he knew very well what would happen over there, and if he watched it again, he would just continue to be tortured by the cruel picture, so he simply chose to return to the cabin.

Guo Jia is different, he came to the Gunpowder Army this time, mainly to refer to the strategy and tactics launched by the Gunpowder Army with firearms, so every battle, he tried to watch it all, as for the so-called cruel picture, it has long been a strange daily life for him.

It wasn't until the sound of the artillery finally began to become sparse that Yuan Yun felt the tank under his ass begin to move again, this time obviously much faster, obviously the Karasuma people had given up the attack, so Zhang Liao began to prepare to withdraw to the left flank step by step.

After a while, Xu You also returned to the cabin, and when he came in, he said: "This time, our ammunition is consumed hugely, and I am afraid that we will not be able to come out for ten days and a half months without returning, and there are too many things that need to be replenished this time." ”

Yuan Yun asked with a little worry, "Can you still support a battle?" ”

Xu You nodded and said: "It's okay to be smaller, if it's like just now, I'm afraid we won't be able to hold on to a stick of incense, and the ammunition will be all gone." ”

Yuan Yun asked again, "What did General Zhang Liao say?" ”

Xu Yu said: "General Zhang Liao asked us to quickly withdraw from this dead land, the enemy has now been shocked by us, and it will definitely not be able to launch a large-scale charge again for a period of time, but if it drags on for another day, the other party will definitely be able to mobilize again, and then we will not be able to bypass this ten-mile-long trench, I am afraid that we will really have to fight hard with the enemy." ”

Yuan Yun snorted and said, "I hope that the Karasuma people will be frightened by our artillery, and it is best to withdraw them all now." ”

Xu You shook his head when he heard this, and said: "This time the Karasuma people are determined to fight us to the death, although the other party suffered heavy losses in the battle just now, but there are still tens of thousands of horses and horses to prepare, so as long as one day passes, when the Karasuma generals regroup these scattered cavalry, they will inevitably launch a surprise attack again." ”

"I'm afraid it won't be a day, these Karasuma people have probably made a plan before, and after being dispersed, they are also constantly converging in a targeted manner, and it won't take a night to form a powerful cavalry phalanx again." While Zhang Liao spoke, he had already grabbed Yuan Yun's teapot without any scruples, and then drank it all.
