Chapter 148: Vietnam (8) -- Killing Turtle Sun
For a time, the Vietnamese soldiers were stunned!
Although they had also been in contact with Nguyen's musket team, it was too far from that. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 infoAfter all, from such a long distance, the other side opened fire. Without even touching each other, he went to see the king of Yama.
This style of play is really embarrassing.
Moreover, as long as it is an individual, it will have a fear of death. Especially when death is on the verge of death! In the face of such a strong enemy, the Vietnamese soldiers could not resist at all. They threw down their weapons and turned to run away.
Some soldiers only hated their parents for not giving them two extra legs, so they couldn't run fast. The Vietnamese generals who were supervising the battle in the rear did not expect the Nguyen counterfire on the opposite side to be so fierce! When attacked, it was like a flood beast that people couldn't resist.
This is very different from the Ruan rebel troops they have been in contact with.
But as the vanguard army, the Vietnamese generals did not dare to be defeated like this. Then he shouted at the top of his voice: "Don't run! Top! Give me a top! ”。 As he spoke, he raised his knife and cut down more than a dozen soldiers who had escaped.
It was only under the threat of death that the soldiers stabilized their collapse. But they didn't dare to take a step forward.
Just when the Vietnamese generals were scolding, Java moved! Rows of soldiers walked neatly towards the Vietnamese army. The muskets don't stop! Every time the first row of soldiers finishes fighting, the second row of soldiers shifts to the front. Alternately, inflicting sustained damage on the Vietnamese troops on the opposite side.
Wang Kai's company was at the forefront, and he saw that the position of the Vietnamese general was exposed. He immediately ordered his company to turn their guns on those Vietnamese generals.
So after several gunshots, the heads of the Vietnamese generals were like exploding claws, red and white, splattered all over the ground. Scared the Vietnamese soldiers in training!
Then many of the soldiers shouted in terror and ran back. Some generals tried to stop it, but they were slashed by the frightened soldiers. Like a river embankment that has burst, once it is opened, it will plunge for thousands of miles. The entire Vietnamese army was also in a state of chaos in an instant.
Lehi, as the commander of the 1st Javanese Regiment, was very satisfied with the performance of the soldiers. Seeing that this opportunity to beat the water dog is in front of you, how can you not make good use of it?
At his command, the Java Mass suddenly sped up. According to the rules of the battlefield, those who resist are killed, and those who surrender are arrested. Half-dead, send to the Western Heavenly Bliss.
In this way, I chased all the way, killed all the way, caught all the way, and ran more than 1,000 meters. It wasn't until a rolling hill appeared ahead that Java slowed down. On the left side of the mountain is the Xiangjiang River, which runs towards the sea. To the right of the mountain, there is a rolling hilly hill. And behind the mountain, there is a faintly visible blue stone wall.
There, it should be the Imperial City of Hue.
By this time, many Vietnamese soldiers were tired like dogs, panting incessantly. They are already poorly fed, poorly treated, and malnourished. The soldiers of the Javanese regiment were well fed, well treated, and their physical fitness was much better than that of the Vietnamese soldiers.
In comparison, the physical strength of the Vietnamese soldiers is too weak!
Halfway up the mountain, the Vietnamese soldiers could no longer run. One by one, they collapsed on the ground, unable to even speak.
Therefore, it did not take much effort for the Javanese regiment to capture a large number of prisoners.
But at this moment, a sudden rain of arrows shot from the top of the mountain. But it was the Vietnamese reinforcements who had just arrived. The regimental commanders, including Lehi, went to pay attention to the captives. So for a while, I didn't find that the top of the mountain had been quietly occupied by the Vietnamese army.
Whoosh...
An arrow grazed Wang Kai's cheek, cutting through the skin. However, he didn't bother to pay attention to the blood beads that oozed out, and shouted, "Retreat!" Lehi, who was watching the battle, also noticed that there was an enemy on the hill and ordered a retreat.
But it's still too late!
By the time the rain of arrows was over, nearly 100 people fell to the ground. Among them were both Vietnamese prisoners and soldiers of the Javanese regiment.
Fortunately, this first wave of arrow rain was prepared in a hurry and was not intensive. Otherwise, more people will die!
Seeing this, the soldiers didn't even care about the prisoners, turned around and ran towards the foot of the mountain. And the Vietnamese captives, thinking that they had escaped, rushed to the top of the mountain.
At this time, the second wave of arrow rain arrived.
It was like a thick dark cloud, which fell rapidly to the ground with the momentum of Mount Tai pressing on the top. In terms of scale, there are at least a thousand.
And although this hill is not high, it is condescending, and it has the advantage of being difficult to attack and easy to defend. So there are still many soldiers who have not won and have been shot into hedgehogs by the rain of arrows. Even those prisoners who also belonged to the Vietnamese camp were shot away one by one.
Some of them fell to the foot of the mountain, covered in blood and dirt, and died in a terrible state. Seeing those captives, I secretly rejoiced. Fortunately, I surrendered at the foot of the mountain earlier, otherwise I would have died. This is also disguised, prompting the captives to settle down.
Lehi looked through the binoculars at the Vietnamese army guarding the top of the mountain, and his heart was angry! The loss of more than 100 people at this time is really a big loss. Especially in this situation that could have been avoided!
It's also to blame him for being too greedy and rash, ignoring the terrain here and being less prepared.
Listening to the miserable howl of the dead on the mountain, it made him even more heartbroken!
Gritting his teeth, he shouted: "What about the artillery company? Get out of here! Kill these turtles and grandsons for me! If I don't flatten this hill today, I'll write the word 'Li' upside down! ”。
Wang Kai listened from afar, very excited. On this mountain, there are many brothers in his company. It's hard to accept that it's all of a sudden. So he also loudly urged the artillery company to flatten the mountain!
It's just that the official way of Hue is too unsatisfactory. It took a lot of effort to bring the cannons here. For a distance of 100 meters, it will take at least five or six minutes.
This slow and leisurely turtle speed makes people anxious.
So Wang Kai simply took the brothers in the company and went to carry the cannon. It's heavy, but it's powerful! Especially in the case of revenge!
After a quarter of an hour, hundreds of people were carrying the cannon with great bride.
Adjust to a thirty-seven elevation angle and aim at the top of the mountain. Looking at the Vietnamese troops waiting above, Lehi gave the order to open fire in a cold tone.
Then I heard a boom, and the cannon fire did not stop. The spark-flying cannonballs, dragging the long tail of fire, suddenly exploded on the top of the mountain.
Those Vietnamese soldiers still thought that the cannon of the Ming Dynasty was a second-hand cannon with a close distance and poor accuracy like Nguyen Phuc Anh, so when the cannonball landed on their heads accurately, everyone was so frightened that they forgot to escape. In fact, even if they wanted to run, it was too late.
From the bottom of the mountain, the top of the mountain is full of fire and dust. Mountains and rocks mixed with dirt are constantly rolling down from the top of the mountain. Even some of them have mutilated limbs and turned into flesh and mud.
At the same time, the ground shook and shook incessantly, as if there had been an earthquake.
Such a scene made every soldier of the Javanese regiment feel relieved.
