Chapter 203: Hoeing and Rape

Six gun arrays, such as six sharp blades, cut Liu Jinzhong's left and right armies of the Great Western Army to pieces, four thousand military horses died and fled, and the rest were still lingering, and the original strong military appearance immediately became only Liu Jinzhong's Chinese army and rear army were still alive, and three of the six gun arrays were surrounded by three on the left and right, becoming a flanking attack. 【Latest chapter reading. 】

The Chinese army is Liu Jinzhong's ironclad army, with 2,000 people, and the rear army is a cavalry army, with 1,000 people, these 3,000 people are the capital on which Liu Jinzhong relies to gain a foothold, and the soldiers in it are basically the backbone of the original Ming army, and their combat effectiveness is higher than that of miscellaneous soldiers.

But at this moment, these veterans were not calm, and even panicked, the formation began to scatter, and some soldiers and ruffians looked around, looking around, ready to escape.

Clear-eyed people can understand at a glance that the Kuizhou Army is definitely not an ordinary Ming army, and the thunderous tactics that crushed the front army and the left and right armies of the Great Western Army are even more ferocious than the Great Western Guards, and it is impossible to withstand it with Liu Jinzhong's people.

Liu Jinzhong's face turned white, and he couldn't stop looking left and right, the blue flag on the left, the green flag on the right, and the cone-shaped gun array under the two-color banner was stirring up his left and right armies.

"What are the rear army doing? Why didn't you storm the left flank of the Ming army!? He roared, riding on his horse and almost standing up: "Waiting to collect Lao Tzu's body?" ”

The people on the left and right looked at each other, no one dared to respond, Liu Jinzhong looked back with a blue face, but saw that the herald sent to the rear army just now rode back on his horse, and shouted loudly: "Governor, General Liu of the rear army replied that the Ming army and our ginseng are mixed together, and they can't be impacted, otherwise they will hurt their own people." ”

When everyone heard this, they stared to their right, and sure enough, they saw that the cavalry of the rear army was circling around the right army, and in the middle of the circle, the three gun formations of the Ming army were rampage, and the people of the right army fell in rows and had collapsed.

Liu Jinzhong was furious: "Hurt your own people? Is Liu Zhong stupid? Let him open his eyes and see, the right army and P of his own people have become dead ghosts! Hurry up and give the order, if he doesn't rush into battle, when Lao Tzu frees his hand, he will definitely cut off his head! ”

The herald shouted yes, and went back to the horse.

Before Liu Jinzhong could recover from his anger, he heard a burst of exclamations around him, and some guards shouted in a panic: "Governor, the left army is scattered, the left army is scattered!" ”

Liu Jinzhong was startled again, and hurriedly turned his head to look, but saw that on the left side of the Chinese army, the battlefield where there was still a sound of fighting just now had become the Kuizhou army chasing and killing the fleeing Western Army stragglers, and there was no organized resistance, all the officers and men of the Left Army were running in a hurry, and the few people on horseback who ran in the front were the leading generals of the Left Army.

The Kuizhou army with the cyan banner did not chase far, and the three gun arrays accompanied by a sound of horns, stopped in place at the same time, and began to turn incredibly, pointing the tip of the triangular cone at the central army of the Great Western Army.

Liu Jinzhong's eyelids jumped, his whole body trembled, and he hurriedly shouted: "Order the whole army to the left, prepare to meet the enemy!" ”

The deputy generals on the left and right saw the movements of the Kuizhou army, and they were also in a panic, and they roared in a mess, conveying Liu Jinzhong's order, and the generals desperately drove the soldiers to turn the army formation and face to the left.

The movement of the Kuizhou army was very fast, and the turning of the three gun formations was completed in just a few breaths, with two gun formations in the rear and one gun formation in the front, once again forming a large formation in the shape of "Pin".

Then it stopped.

Li Tingyu in the formation stood in the middle of the three gun formations, shouting loudly: "Adjust your breathing, adjust your breathing, boys, don't get tired and lie down, wait for you to be busy!" ”

The white-robed soldiers stood quietly in place, wiping the sweat off their faces, shaking off the blood on the tip of the spear, panting heavily.

The Chinese army of the Great Western Army here is a crowd shouting horses and neighing, a long period of chaos, the army fighting, if it is not a well-trained strong army, the most taboo is to change the formation in battle, a change in the formation, it is bound to cause chaos in the army, if there is no intensive practice in peacetime, it is easy to become a collapse formation.

Liu Jinzhong's officers tried their best, scolding, whipping and kicking, and finally changed the direction of the Chinese army in a short period of time, and the whole was facing the three gun formations of the blue banner of the Kuizhou army, and the green flag gun array on the right, believing that the cavalry team would clean them up.

The Chinese army is all family, the armor and weapons are relatively well-equipped, everyone is wearing half-body iron armor, a wide-sided iron helmet on the head, cowhide boots, holding a red tasseled iron gun or a long-handled broadsword, all of which are made of fine iron, both hardness and sharpness are much better than the broken copper and broken iron in the hands of the miscellaneous soldiers, and it is precisely because of this sharply equipped team that Liu Jinzhong did not turn around and escape.

"There are 3,000 people, although there are a little less, but they are all elite, especially the cavalry of the rear army is even stronger, although the Ming army is fierce, but they are all foot soldiers, it is difficult to escape defeat under the impact of the cavalry, as long as the Chinese army can withstand the attack of the Ming army with the blue banner on the left, and wait until the cavalry solves the Ming army on the right, the overall situation can be determined." Liu Jinzhong calculated, hating in his heart, this time he really stole rice, but he came to find out the details, but he fought a big battle in vain, why did you explain that the army was so desperate, and he didn't come down for so many days on the mountain, how did he see his army of 10,000 people rushing out instead? Isn't that stupid?

But he also lost so many of his own people, although the miscellaneous soldiers are not valuable, but they are also combat power, to organize a team of 10,000 people, it will cost a lot of silver, it is too unlucky!

Liu Jinzhong scolded secretly, but when he heard that the people standing in front of the Chinese army column were in an uproar, he was upset and angry, and was about to reprimand him, when he heard countless subordinates shouting: "Hurry up and take the shield!" The Ming Army Bird is here! ”

Hearing this shout, Liu Jinzhong's heart tightened, and he sat up straight on the horse and stared, sure enough, before the Ming army's gun array, I don't know when, there was a horizontal line of bird commanders, which were flat on the bird system pierced into the ground, and the light of the arquebus was dotted.

The three cone-shaped gun formations were only a hundred steps away from Liu Jinzhong's Chinese army, while the bird commander platoon stood even closer, only sixty paces away, and even their fingers pulling the trigger could be seen clearly.

In the next second, a muffled thunder sounded like rolling across the sky, and puffs of black smoke rose from the face of the bird's hand.

"Fire!" The soldiers of the Great Western Army screamed for a while, and then turned into a scream, and the people standing in the front instinctively wanted to hide, but where to hide, there were people on the left and right behind them, and there was no other way than to desperately squeeze into the pile of people in the rear.

The flying lead bullets did not embarrass them too much, and the iron leaf of the half-body armor did not bring a sense of security at such a close distance, and the three-dollar lead broke through the iron leaf without any problem, and went straight into the blood R, and even penetrated the armor leaf behind the body after penetrating the human body, and S entered the second human body.

In the splash of blood, the people in the front row fell down holding the bullet holes, revealing the people behind them, seeing the tragic situation of those killed by the birds, the formation of the Chinese army that had just stabilized was a little chaotic.

And the row of birds in command, after the fight, did not turn around and run, but stood there with a big grin, took out the whole strip and began to reload.

That's bullying!

The generals in the Chinese army formation had blue tendons on their foreheads, and roared loudly: "Archers, archers, where did the archers die?" Come up and die those grandsons! ”

The archers have not yet come up, but the crossbowmen have come up.

Just as the Bird Commander opened fire, the three conical spear formations had rested enough, and they stepped forward, stopping the platoon next to the Bird Commander, and once again lowered their spears and raised their mountain-destroying crossbows.

They changed to a quiver box, and two thousand pikemen and sword players became two thousand crossbowmen, and twenty thousand eight-inch crossbow arrows once again formed a sea of arrows and flew over.

Dense crossbow arrows smashed into the Chinese military array, the arrows of the crossbow arrows are heavy arrows, and when they fall from the sky, with the help of potential energy, they can break through the protection of the half-body armor at a distance of sixty steps, causing injury and death.

Liu Jinzhong was almost hit by an arrow, and at the last moment, a guard rushed over without fear of death, and raised a round shield to cover his body, otherwise with the mountain armor he was wearing, he would at least have to be injured.

Liu Jinzhong hid in the shadow of the shield, and did not forget to give an order when he was angry, and at this time there was only one order to give: "Rush over, rush over!" Don't stand and wait to die! ”

The 20,000 arrows were exhausted in just a few breaths, and as soon as the arrow rain stopped, the soldiers of the Daxi Army who were lucky enough to survive roared angrily, and without waiting for the officers to drive them away, they automatically rushed straight towards the Kuizhou army, because everyone understood that the arrow rain would come again, and they might not be able to stand.

The Kuizhou army was not in a panic, and slowly hung the mountain-destroying crossbow on his waist, picked up the spear placed on the ground, and restored the hedgehog tip cone formation.

They were not in a hurry at all, as if they regarded the storming Great Western Army as nothing, not because the Kuizhou Army was bold, but in front of them, there was still a team of birds in command.

The bird commanders had already reloaded their ammunition, and they seemed to be waiting a little impatiently, and the bird commanders on the crescent axe, the black DD commanders had accurately aimed at the figures that swooped over.

A loud muffled sound rolled over again, like a talisman from the king of Yama, bringing the flow of people flowing like a tide to a halt, and falling down several rows of people.

Liu Jinzhong's eyes were about to bulge out when he saw it, how aggrieved this battle was, from the beginning to the present, his own people didn't seem to have taken advantage of it, and they had been killed like haystacks by others, seeing that there were less than 1,000 people left in the Chinese army of 2,000 people, these are his old foundations.

But he didn't have time to regret it, the victory or defeat was already obvious now, the cyan banner on the left Kuizhou army had nearly 3,000 people, no matter how he fought, his side was defeated, and the only hope was that the cavalry on the right could come to the rescue as soon as possible.

Liu Jinzhong pushed away the shield, came out from under the shield, looked to the right hurriedly, and before he could raise his head, he heard a deafening loud noise, and even the ground trembled, as if there were hundreds of catties of black powder exploding around him.

There are cannons!

A thought flashed in Liu Jinzhong's head, the Ming army opened fire at the head of the city!

The Ming army fights, most like to use all kinds of firearms, there are cannons is not surprising, when Liu Jinzhong was still the general army of the Ming Dynasty, there were also all kinds of iron and copper cannons in the army, but at this moment the battlefield of the two armies is far away from the Longquan Mountain Walled City, unless it is a red-coated cannon, it is impossible to hit here, and the red-coated cannon is heavy, and the Ming army will not bring.

Liu Jinzhong was a little puzzled, he first looked at the city, but he didn't see the smoke from the cannon, and when he turned his head to the right, he saw a large puff of black smoke rising.

In the black smoke, his cavalry was rushing forward, but not to chop melons and vegetables, but to flee for their lives.

A team of 1,000 horses, who could run looked like no more than three or four hundred horses, were running to the side frantically, and behind them, the gun array of the three green banners of the Kuizhou Army stood there steadily, and some crossbow arrows flew out of the formation, whistling and chasing the cavalry S.

Liu Jinzhong was dumbfounded, what's going on? How did the cavalry lose?

"Governor, it's the enemy of all people! The Ming army threw 10,000 enemies! A cavalryman came crying and beating his horse, his face was black, and he was smoked into black charcoal: "General Liu was blown up, and the rear army was scattered!" ”

"Ten thousand enemies?" Liu Jinzhong repeated and shouted in disbelief: "Ten thousand enemies? Are you spending your eyes, how can they possibly use ten thousand enemies here? ”

"It's true, Dudu, the 10,000 enemies of the Ming army are very small, but the explosion is very fierce, and the people killed by the explosion don't even have all the corpses." The cavalry shouted with a crying voice, and there was an iron nail on his right shoulder, and the blood was so fluid that he almost bared his teeth in pain.

Liu Jinzhong was really in a mess at the moment, and he didn't understand how the cavalry could be blown away by 10,000 enemies when he broke his head.

He was stunned, but the people on the left and right couldn't hold it down, glanced at each other, and said forward together: "Governor, don't do big things, let's withdraw first." ”

This was said many times when they were the Ming army, whether it was in the face of Li Zicheng, Zhang Xianzhong, or other peasant armies, they often used it.

Liu Jinzhong nodded, looked back at the collapsed Chinese army, didn't say a word, turned his head and raised his whip, and galloped away like an arrow, and his first-class riding skills were undoubtedly revealed.

But no one applauded on the left and right, and a group of guards just followed him and left.

As soon as he ran out, Liu Jinzhong was surprised to find that on his way, a team of dozens of white-robed soldiers on horseback was already waiting there, led by a red-faced stout man, holding a bird pole, aiming at this side.

Liu Jinzhong was surrounded by nearly fifty people, all of whom were cavalry, only a lot more than the white-robed soldiers blocking the road, he looked back behind him, although the chaotic Chinese army was scattered, it was still able to block the pace of the cyan banner Kuizhou soldiers chasing after him, relying on their two legs, they couldn't catch up in a short time, and the white-robed soldiers with the green banner on the right side were still far away on the other side, relying on the people around him, as long as they broke the white-robed soldiers blocking the road, they could escape.

And so many subordinates died, just to use these dozens of white-robed soldiers to vent their anger.

Thinking about it, Liu Jinzhong's heart was full of gangsterism, his eyes showed a fierce light, he pulled out a long-handled straight-edged saber from the saddle, raised it high above his head, and was about to shout when he opened his throat.

Before the word "kill" could be spoken, he saw the red-faced man thirty paces away in the hands of the bird smoke rising, and then felt a pain in his forehead, as if a sledgehammer had hit his head heavily, and the whole person flew out of the horse upside down and fell to the ground like a fallen leaf.

Liu Jinzhong's eyes were wide open, looking straight at the sky, and he was still thinking in his mind: No, no, I haven't seen Prince Su yet, I haven't seen the regent yet, I haven't gotten the glory and wealth in this life, I can't die here, I can't ......

His consciousness passed quickly, his black pupils contracted sharply, turning into a dead gray, and the blood on his forehead and the hole in the back of his head made his life come to naught in an instant.

Wang Huan stood behind his ancestors, sighed softly, and said to himself: "Liu Jinzhong is dead, history has changed, without Liu Jinzhong, how would Zhang Xianzhong die?" ”
