Chapter 778: Sprout 8
Liu Hou, the new cavalry officer, is also enthusiastic about riding a horse? In the forward line of the horse team. The enemy cavalry that rushed back was like a torn cloth or a cut cake.
In the blink of an eye, the flag gun with the indicative nature in his hand stabbed head-on in front of an enemy flag rider who could not avoid it.
In the tooth-aching crash and cracking, the standard-bearer was pierced and fell from his horse like a rag; The battle flag in his hand, which had been broken in several sections, also seemed to be blown up and raised by a gale, floating in front of Liu Hou's eyes and flying in the air; Shining through the sunlight, he was thrown to the other side of the battle formation in a blink of an eye, trampled in the smoke and dust and disappeared without a trace.
Under his lead, more of the enemy were swept up in front of the spears, and then they were thrown aside as if they had been thrown off tattered pieces of cloth, and the broken spears were thrown aside;
At this point, they tighten the reins a little and give way to the midline and back off. He continued to draw his thick-backed and narrow-edged saber, and the horse with the oblique tip of the reverse blade swept through the enemy formation like the wind, only to see that above the crowd that could not be avoided, there were a series of heads and arms, which were cut off in the midst of the blood light spray.
But Liu Hou and his comrades continued to charge forward, and under the hooves and blades of their horses, countless enemy soldiers who were close together rushed and cut down row after row. Soon, these mixed horse teams from the cavalry hunting battalion and Anton's cavalry tore and penetrated almost unhindered with several huge "blade surfaces" composed of horse pistols, short spears, and sabers, and those swords and spears were hastily formed in a heavy formation.
In the wilderness, the bodies of the fallen enemy soldiers regardless of camp were countless, like roads and road signs paved with flesh and blood.
In particular, the spear-wielding rush of the new battalion of cavalry under his command was like a heavy wave that could not breathe, and in just a few shots and waves, it swept like a raging fire through all the soldiers of the hostile forces in the melee in front of the high platform and in the valley; Almost everything—weapons, men, formations, horses, and banners—was mercilessly destroyed and slaughtered under the rolling hooves of horses and the flickering forest of swords and guns.
This was followed by a greater number of leather holstered or unarmored auxiliaries riding lightly; They were well versed in the division of countless small groups of cavalry, and with the tacit understanding of the sword light flying by on horseback, flying and slashing through the heads of the infantry teams that had been scattered and fled, making their hasty escape and avoidance become more and more unstoppable rout.
It was like a deeply inserted red-hot iron vertebrae, which stirred fiercely in the heart of the enemy's formation, and became more and more uncontrollable.
When the momentum of more than 2,000 cavalry had penetrated several enemy formations in one go, and the momentum had diminished slightly and they had begun to gather separately and assemble the whole team again, it was still more horseback figures that appeared on the flanks of these charging cavalry a little later.
However, when they appeared on the battlefield a little later, they did not rush to kill the vanguard cavalry in the middle of the battle, holding spears in their hands to break through the enemy's formation, or raising their swords and backblades to do the flying and slashing things, but carried long firearms on their backs, lying on their horses in pieces.
Until it extends and expands on the flank, completes a long arc of outflanking, and then within two or three hundred steps of the enemy in front of them shrinks and retreats, it becomes a piece of infantry formation supported and covered by war horses.
Although their performance on horseback can only be described as unsatisfactory, once they land and disembark, they will radiate another kind of momentum, spirit and vigor.
And those who were rushing in a mess of the enemy formations were also hastily shrinking and regrouping, and could only sit back and watch these dismounted infantry formations, continue to maintain the basic horizontal formation, and began to accelerate and trot forward to within a hundred paces. When they stopped, it was the moment when a succession of fires bloomed and clouds of smoke rose.
In an instant, the front of the enemy formation, which had been torn apart like a soup and fertile snow, was already full of painful wounded and corpses. Many of them still had panicked and stunned expressions, maintaining a posture of blocking or protecting, and they had already fallen to the ground with blood splattered.
Many of them, who had not really seen the power of firearms, were suddenly panicked by the terrible power of this invisible harvesting of life and flesh, which caused them to fall into the valley at once.
If it weren't for the fact that they were entangled with each other and couldn't get out, I was afraid that I wouldn't want to stay in this terrible battlefield for a moment
p> thus,
By the time I arrived on the battlefield, it was all over. But as for the identity of the opponent, I can't help but sigh three times, who and who are they.
From the intervention of the Northern Alliance in Suizhou (now Zhangwu County, Liaoning) in the northeast, the invading tribes in the grasslands outside the mountains in the northwest, the people in the forest who fled over because of the war in the north, and the remnants of the Xue clan who retreated to the local area to hide, and newly sealed the local Liaodong princes; The decisive victory of all parties, coupled with the strong indiscriminate entry of the Huaidong Army, was simply a pot of porridge.
Just the combat effectiveness of the various parties in the melee is a bit worrying, fighting for three days and two nights, and the casualties have not even exceeded two or three thousand. However, when the Huaidong Army entered, it was completely crushed.
More than 5,000 people were killed on the spot and tens of thousands were captured, and the number of other cattle and horses was several times that of this, and a considerable number of them ran away regardless of the fact and were able to escape into the mountains.
Well, for me, in a short period of time, the repair and development of the cheap labor needed in the local area, this is already there.
At this time, several messengers who came over the mountains and mountains also brought new news from the Liaohe Plain in the south, at least Luo Yunxiao, who had established himself as the acting lord of the domain, had already achieved the victory he wanted.
The 30,000 troops he led collided with the 20,000 motley men and horses who came to intercept the Liaodong County at the Puqiaokou on the east bank of the Liaohe River, and the first round of encounters broke out in the process of seizing the ferry and bridge.
It is said that Luo Yunxiao took the lead, shouting the slogans of "crossing the river" and "going home", and led the athletes of Anton's defense army to break through the enemy positions that occupied the numerical advantage several times. Although he was hit by several arrows, he still shouted and fought fiercely.
It is to cross the river with everyone's enthusiasm, and the military formation that is waiting for the rebel party of the family, loosen the position of the chong and retreat again and again, retreat out of control from the bank of the Liao River, and rush to the city of Dongliang fifty miles away.
In the end, one of the generals who participated in the rebellion, Luo Tieshan, the town guard of Lianghe Town, was beheaded, Luo Yinong, the deputy envoy of the Dingxiang Army, was injured and captured, and the city lord of Puning and the deputy envoy of the Dongning Army was missing, and the whole battle collapsed and was completely defeated.
Most of the surviving rebels were captured by Luo Yunxiao, and only a small number of die-hard horse teams protected the leaders of the rebels.
Luo Suxian, who was defeated and retreated, seemed to have lost the will to continue to fight in their own house, and directly abandoned the location of Liaocheng, and fled to the southeast of Kaizhou with a large number of carriages, horses and goods.
A day later, Zhu Yannian, the inner ruler, and Zhang Yixin, the governor of the country, and other important ministers who had been imprisoned by the rebel party, welcomed the army returned by Luo Yunxiao in Kaesong, and publicly recognized his status as the acting lord of the domain.
At the same time, Luo Yunxiao also announced in public that Luo Zhanji's existing son, the third son who narrowly escaped the slaughter and killing, Luo Qigong, who was only thirteen years old, was the heir of the next generation of feudal lords. As a brother, he temporarily took care of the matter, and when the other party became an adult, he gradually returned the housekeeping power.
In this way, it is somewhat peaceful and pressed in terms of status, there may be disagreements and controversies among the Luo family, plus he still controls the most important force of the Luo clan, and for a while, there is only a proper praise for calling him virtuous and fruitful.
Therefore, in addition to the remnants of the rebel party who fled south, his main remaining problems and opponents are Luo Zhanrong, the elder of the family, and Luo Bingsheng, the general, who occupy the important town of the new city in the north.
Of course, before that, an unknown little episode had just happened in Liaocheng.
"Rong Niang. Rong Niang"
Neidian Luo Yan broke into a courtyard of the inner house with some nervousness and shouted urgently
Until the back of the door reveals a face that has passed middle age but has not diminished its charm.
"Hurry up and pack your things......"
He couldn't help but pull the woman to the second area of the inner room.
"Come with me ......"
"Is that going again,......
The woman's expression changed, and she said a little tremblingly.
"Where can you go......
"Of course not with Luo Su first...... Run to the south."
Luo Yan had to press the eagerness, and patiently explained
"I have my own channels and retreats in private......"
"You can find an unknown place and go incognito......"
"After avoiding this limelight, with your and mine's private savings......"
"Spend the rest of your days in abundance......"
At this moment, he is no longer the silent and obedient appearance of the past; It's chattering like one
After all, after betraying the old feudal lord who had served him all his life, his remaining spiritual pillar was this woman and the child she gave birth to.
And it was precisely because of Yu's woman's private affection and the child born in private, as well as a little selfishness to protect himself and his lover, that he became the handle of being manipulated and rebelled, so that he finally took that fatal step.
"Let's take a drink of water first."
The woman gently handed him a cup.
"I'm going to prepare ......."
"Wan'er, why isn't he ...... here?"
Luo Yan suddenly remembered something, and said to the woman's back
"Come back quickly, time is pressing......"
"No need ......"
The woman suddenly turned around. His hands were still empty and showed no sign of tidying up.
"I don't need ......"
"Why ......"
He questioned in surprise, and then felt a sharp pain suddenly erupt between his chest and abdomen, and he fell to the ground with a thud.
And the woman in front of her was watching all this indifferently and coldly; Luo Xian suddenly felt that this woman was so strange, strange and frightening, or he hadn't seen this woman clearly at all.
"You"
However, he was both heartbroken and truly speechless, leaving only streams of bloody feasts and foam.
"Only when you die, my son will be the son of a feudal lord who has peace of mind."
The woman's faint voice continued.
"I have a chance to live......"
At this moment, Luo Yan was completely desperate, he only felt that the woman's pale face was shaking violently in front of his eyes, and then gradually blurred in the sharp pain and burning in his chest and abdomen, and completely fell into the darkness of heaven and earth.
