Chapter 526: Night Attack (2)

"Boom ......"

The artillery fire was raging, and the mournful screams of the horses and the screams of the people resounded throughout the wasteland.

The enemy's 20,000 cavalry were all surrounded by the Yejiabao legion, and the horse rejection array and the musket battalion perfectly coordinated, slaughtering 20,000 cavalry who were powerless to fight back.

Whenever the enemy cavalry wanted to risk their lives to rush to the side of the musket battalion, the sound of artillery would always rise at the right time, killing and wounding a large number of cavalrymen who had just formed and were ready to charge.

If it weren't for the fact that the ammunition of the Yejiabao army was not so sufficient, Su Can would definitely not let the musket battalion slowly surround and kill, but directly bombarded his mother with artillery fire.

The two sides started fighting for less than half an hour, and the enemy's casualties had already exceeded half, as long as the guns of the Yejiapu army did not stop, it was believed that it would not be long before this one-sided slaughter war could be ended.

Su Can thought of the situation where the cavalry battalion of the Iron Tower was almost completely wiped out, and he had already thought about the enemy's war horses. Not wanting to bombard the enemy army with those war horses, Su Can had to take action.

"Stop!" Su Can saw that the enemy army was completely abandoned, and hurriedly called for a ceasefire.

There was still a little time for the order to be delivered, and in a few moments, the enemy lost another two hundred dead.

The artillery fire and gunfire gradually subsided, and the battlefield was filled with gunsmoke, and it was almost impossible to see where the enemy was.

The breeze blew, and the smoke was gradually blown away, and with the faint moonlight, the Yejiabao army finally saw the true situation of the enemy army.

Of the enemy's 20,000 cavalry, there were less than 8,000 left, and the horses were frightened by the roaring cannons, and were not controlled by those cavalry at all, and ran wildly in the encirclement.

Many of the horsemen were thrown to the ground because they could not control their horses, and the chaotic hooves of the horses trampled over them, turning into piles of flesh in an instant.

There are not a few enemy troops who have encountered such a situation, and the commandery flag of this enemy army has disappeared, on the surface, Su Can has no way of knowing whether the enemy generals are still alive.

"Listen, surrender now, and General Ben will spare you from dying. If not, kill all of them! Su Can didn't hesitate, and immediately shouted loudly.

The confusion of the enemy army continued, and it did not improve because the artillery fire had subsided, and many of the horses had gone completely insane. Constantly rushing around, not under the control of those cavalry.

Naturally, Su Can's shout did not get any response, and the enemy army was already too busy to take care of itself. At this moment, those war horses have become their nightmare!

Su Can frowned, he had already discovered why the enemy army was in such a situation. When these people were charging, they didn't blindfold the horse's eyes or cover the horse's ears, so they let the war horse face the artillery fire, and it was strange that the war horse didn't go crazy for a long time.

Looking at the crazy war horses in front of him, Su Can knew that his wish was about to be disappointed. Even if such a war horse can survive, it will definitely never be able to go to the battlefield again.

Su Can, who was very disappointed, shook his head and sighed softly, and turned to leave.

Before leaving, Su Can gave the order to open fire.

The cannons roared, the guns rang out in patches, and the eight thousand cavalry were wiped out almost in the blink of an eye, leaving not a single one behind.

Ye Shaolong couldn't help but chuckle in his heart when he saw Su Can coming dejectedly, thinking that the battle situation in front was not good, and hurriedly asked, "How is it?" ”

Su Can said with a look of pity on his face: "It has been completely destroyed, and there is not a single one of the 20,000 enemy troops left." ”

Ye Shaolong frowned: "How about the casualties of our soldiers?" ”

Su Can responded with a fist: "Because there is a copper cannon cover, and the enemy army has been ambushed by us again, so the casualties of our soldiers this time are almost negligible, and the maximum number will not exceed 1,000." ”

Ye Shaolong was even more puzzled at this time: "Since we didn't have any damage and won in the end, why are you still depressed?" ”

Tie Ta and Lin Biao were also very curious, although the two were also anxious, they did not interrupt the conversation between the two.

Su Can sighed: "It's nothing, I'm just pity for those 20,000 war horses." Just now, I was thinking about seeing if I could get some of them, so that they could be used when the tower rebuilt the cavalry battalion. Unexpectedly, those war horses were frightened crazy by the artillery fire. ”

Hearing this, Ye Shaolong didn't say anything, but the tower ghost screamed, and the person had already rushed to Su Can's face, grabbed his shoulders and shook violently: "What about the horse?" What about the war horses, are they all dead? ”

The iron tower is notoriously strong, and if you don't shake it like this, you won't be able to stand it. Fortunately, Su Can's strength is strong, and although the tower is very strong, he only shook it slightly, and threw the tower away.

"What madness are you kid, this old bone was almost shaken apart by you." It seemed that he broke free of the tower easily, but Su Can blushed and kept panting afterwards.

Tie Ta quickly reacted, with some embarrassment on his face, touched the back of his head, and said apologetically: "Brother Su, I'm sorry, I was too excited just now." But the enemy army is 20,000 horses, you won't leave me without a single one, will you? ”

Su Can looked at the tower vigilantly, in case he approached again, and only after making sure it was safe did he shake his head and said, "No, those war horses are all gone, even if there are those who survive, they won't be able to go to the battlefield in the future, and they will be of no use to us at all." ”

"But ......."

Tie Ta was very anxious, he still wanted to debate a few sentences, but Ye Shaolong didn't let him continue to entangle.

"The iron tower is enough, the war horse of the cavalry battalion, I will naturally give it to you in the future." Ye Shaolong really couldn't stand it, so he categorically drank the iron tower.

Tie Ta's face was happy, but he was afraid that Ye Shaolong would deceive him, so he confirmed: "Dashuai, you said this, everyone heard it." ”

Ye Shaolong rolled his eyes and said firmly: "As long as you repel the enemy army, are you still afraid that there will be no war horses?" ”

The tower was slightly stunned: "......What does the handsome mean?"

Ye Shaolong simply said: "Yes, after occupying Hebei and Shandong, all the war horses you get will belong to you, are you satisfied?" ”

"Satisfied, satisfied, hahaha!" The tower was smiling happily.

Ye Shaolong didn't pay attention to the iron tower immersed in happiness, but walked towards the battlefield with Su Can.

At this moment, the sound of artillery and gunfire has completely subsided, and the Yejiapu army is cleaning up the battlefield.

Ye Shaolong raised his eyes and saw that the entire battlefield was still shrouded in gunsmoke at this moment, and a strong smell of blood penetrated his nostrils, making people almost disgusting.

The wasteland, which was originally flat, was now bombarded by artillery fire and large pits, and it was easy for the soldiers to clean it up. Just dig those big pits deeper, and then just bury the corpses.

There was nothing to see on the battlefield, and the strange smell also made Ye Shaolong not want to stay longer, so he left first.

Su Can still stayed, although the spies did not find any enemy troops lurking around, but he did not dare to relax in the slightest, and still had to guard until dawn.

In the enemy camp, the four commanders were listening to the spies report on the cavalry battle situation at the moment. When they learned that 20,000 cavalry had been wiped out by the Yejiabao army in less than an hour, the faces of the four of them changed greatly.
