Chapter 1390: Wind Speed
Who would dare not listen to Jerusha's order to fight to the death? The military law of the Dingguo Army is strict, and it has always been like this, and if you dare to disobey the order, the result is only a dead end. With Yerushha's order, those commanders who had the intention of retreating could only stick to it, and there was no fun in retreating, so they could only fight desperately, and the cavalry of the Ruifeng battalion was known as the cavalry of the cavalry, and once it was powerful, the momentum was terrifying. The chain of horses was quickly assembled, and the heavy cavalry launched a charge on the thickest part of the Germanic formation, where Turrick took command. The heavy cavalry combined with the chain of horses was invincible, and the formation organized by the Germans was quickly cut apart, and Turrick also broke out in a cold sweat, "Quickly let the soldiers and horses in the rear press up, we must trap this group of Orientals and avenge the dead brothers." ”
In the face of tremendous pressure, Turrick finally made a mistake. It's not Turick's fault, who would have thought that the Dingguo Army would be able to come from the top of the Angry Water Mountain? Transferring troops from the rear, the happiest was Yerusha, who ordered his soldiers to fight to the death and pay so much price, in order to attract the church soldiers from the south and minimize the risk of a sneak attack. The fierce battle in the Germanic camp was in full swing, all of which was under the observation of the scouts of the Dingguo army, and Yang Zaixing had been enduring it, believing that Jerusha would definitely be able to attract most of the Germanic people. Yang Zaixing had to believe in Yerusha, but fortunately, Yerusha did not disappoint, as soon as the Germanic soldiers in the south moved, the soldiers of the Dingguo Army, who had been in ambush for a long time, began to implement the real sneak attack plan.
With the addition of the defenders in the south, the situation of Yerusha's department can be imagined, Turik seems to have taken some medicine, the movement of troops and horses is fast and ruthless, Rao is Yerusha, and he is also forced to retreat continuously, "Phew, this Turik is really difficult to deal with, a temporary army of mixed old and new, even more difficult for him to command." Jerusha wasn't complimenting anyone, but Turrick was very capable.
Bang, suddenly there was a loud noise in the rear, and then the large battalion in the south also burst into flames, Turrick was directing the army to counterattack, and it was about to succeed, suddenly there was a huge fire in the rear, and when he saw the place where the fire came from, Turik's whole heart chuckled. That was where the South Camp was located, and Turrick almost didn't jump, "Where are the spies, can anyone tell me what's going on behind the scenes?" ”
Since Yang Zaixing decided to attack, he was often as fast as the wind, so he naturally would not give Turick time to think carefully. Nearly 5,000 soldiers of the Dingguo Army were divided into left and right wings, and slammed into the outermost camp of the Germans, the defensive strength of the Southern Battalion itself was not as good as other places, and some of its troops were withdrawn, and it was even weaker, in the face of the powerful attack of the Dingguo Army, the defense line that was finally formed collapsed in an instant, and Scotto, who was in charge of the defense of the Southern Battalion, almost didn't pull his hair clean, "The people scattered outside gave up the defense area and all moved closer to the Chinese army camp, Miutel, go and tell Lord Turrick that there are no reinforcements, and the Southern Battalion can't hold it." ”
The Germans resisted day by day, but in the face of sudden attacks, all defenses looked pale and weak, and the strength advantage of the Dingguo army in a short period of time was not compensated for by others. Yang Zaixing knows very well where his advantage is, and he can make a breakthrough quickly, relying on a surprise attack, if he can't get a decisive advantage before the Germans react, then this sneak attack will be meaningless. Set up the formation, face to face, the Dingguo army does not have many advantages, the southern battalion has been on fire, a large number of soldiers of the Dingguo army poured into the battalion, began to clean up the battlefield, Yang Zaixing's eyes were deep, his face was a little heavy, "Tell the departments, don't clean up the battlefield first, move forward quickly, and don't let the Germans organize an effective defense line." ”
With Yang Zaixing's urging, the actions of the Dingguo Army became more unified, although there were still many Germanic remnants in the southern camp, but a large number of soldiers of the Dingguo Army ignored this, and directly attacked the Chinese army camp, at the intersection to the Zhongju camp, and finally met with the desperate resistance of the Scotto's department, and the commander of the thousand commanders, Mitael, based on two rows of shield soldiers, sealed the intersection to death. When the soldiers of the Dingguo Army hit the intersection, their speed slowed down. The two sides quickly fought each other, and a large number of Germanic infantry held their shields and steel knives poked out of the gaps. Because it was a sneak attack, the kind of heavy shield that slowed down the march was obviously impossible to carry, and now in the face of the Germanic infantry formation, the Dingguo army, which lacked a shield, suffered a big loss as soon as it came up. Lack of protection, it is bound to pay a heavy price, the previous offensive is like a bamboo, but at this time it is difficult to move an inch, every soldier of the Dingguo Army knows that this is an attack with no way out, once the attack is blocked, let the Germans launch a counterattack, it will be dangerous. Although a bridge was built on the top of Nushui Mountain, it was impossible to allow a large number of soldiers to pass through in a short period of time, and this so-called back road was not safe. Poof, a soldier of the Dingguo Army crashed into the shield of the Germans, the burly body, coupled with the fierce impact force, made the shield press down violently, but unfortunately, the steel knives of the Germans were not polite, two steel knives skimmed from the side, and the soldier of the Dingguo Army snorted and fell in the flow of people.
In order to break through this line of defense and rush into the camp of the Chinese army, the soldiers of the Dingguo Army were like crazy, they used their bodies to hit the shields, and some of them were bloodied from their shoulders. The soldiers of the church were not battle-hardened Germanic troops, and they were gradually frightened by the crazy fighting style of the Dingguo army, and Miitel saw it in his eyes, anxious in his heart, and the formation retreated little by little, he held his broadsword and roared loudly, "Didn't you prepare fire oil before, throw it on the opposite side, and burn these Eastern heretics." ”
In order to rush to the aid of Festaq City, the church made full preparations, including a lot of fire oil, but unfortunately Festak fell too quickly, and the prepared fire oil was no longer useful. At this time, Miotel was also forced to have no choice, so he came up with the use of fire oil, using fire oil in this kind of place, if you don't do it well, it will burn your own people, the two sides have been fighting together, once they come into contact with the oil oil, they can't withdraw if they want to. But in order to keep the army from collapsing, we can only try, after Miitel shouted, the people around him showed puzzled eyes, "Lord Mitael, don't do this, once you use the oil oil, it is likely to affect our own people." ”
"Listen to my orders, don't you see, how fierce the Orientals are offensive, if you don't think of a way, sooner or later let them rush into the Chinese army camp, and then all of us will have to die. If you have any other way, say now, if not, immediately carry out the military order" Mitael did not know the risks, but at this moment, where could he care so much? The others also looked helpless, everyone I look at you, you look at me, and I can't think of a better idea, in the end, I can only agree to Miultel's plan. A large number of canisters of fire oil were thrown at the opposite side, and a moment later, a large fire was ignited in the crowd. Morin Orthodox led dozens of soldiers under his command to impact the formation of the Germans, he could clearly feel that these church soldiers were almost unable to withstand it, and there was still a big gap between the church soldiers and the elite soldiers of the Holy Cross Knights, and they were about to make progress, when suddenly there was a terrible howl behind him, and the fire oil burned in pieces, and countless soldiers of the Dingguo Army were covered in flames without defense. The cold wind was raging, the fire was more intense, the smell of blood and burning, and the light of the fire illuminated the night as if it were day. Mo Lin couldn't help but tremble in his heart, his eyes were bloodshot, "These Germanic people, actually use fire oil in this situation, these so-called church people, all of them are human-faced beasts. ”
This kind of thing is full of lethality, and it is also full of a lot of unpredictability, even when defending the city, it must be used carefully, let alone when the two sides face each other head-on. Even though the Germans had tried their best to be careful and try their best to throw the fire oil into the distance, the unpredictable cold wind still swept the fire, and many soldiers of the Dingguo Army were burned by the flames, screaming and crawling and running, and many of them also rushed into the Germanic army. Most of the Germanic people used wooden shields, which were ignited a lot when they caught fire. A Germanic soldier gritted his teeth and held his shield, his right broadsword ready to stab the enemy to death, when suddenly his eyes were blazing red, and his ears were filled with inhuman screams. It was a man, a man covered in flames, who pounced like crazy, and the burning man grabbed the shield, and in an instant it became one, and the shield was ignited, and the Germanic soldier was so frightened that he quickly let go of his hand.
It is a very cruel thing to be burned alive by fire, and no one thought that the people above would come up with such a method. It was chaotic, it was all chaotic, and the trick of Miotel did work, but it was short-lived, he underestimated the impact of the oil, and a large number of soldiers of the Dingguo Army rushed into the Germanic formation like a fireball, and for a time the battlefield was full of screams and angry curses. Yang Zaixing's eyes were about to split, his arms were swollen, and he watched his sons and daughters being engulfed by the fire one by one, the heartache could not be described in words, but fortunately, these were all elite soldiers, and they were not frightened by the scene in front of them. With the neighing of a war horse, Yang Zaixing raised his spear and slaughtered it fiercely, and the remaining 2,000 soldiers also launched a decisive charge with Yang Zaixing against the Germanic front. The hellish sea of fire not only hit the morale of the Ding army, but also made the hearts of the Germanic soldiers tortured by conscience, they did not understand, would the merciful God allow such evil deeds, or on the battlefield, he didn't care how despicable the means were?
With Yang Zaixing leading the troops to charge, Miotel finally couldn't bear it, and a large number of Germanic soldiers began to retreat to the Chinese army camp, so that the entire Zhongju camp completely fell into a passive situation of being flanked from both sides. Yelusha has led the army for many years, how could he let go of such a good opportunity, the cavalry finally showed its ferocity, especially the cavalry of the Ruifeng battalion took the lead in launching a counterattack, the Germanic soldiers were in turmoil, and when they retreated, they were bitten by a large number of ancient town cavalry, and the chaos slowly extended, which directly led to the Zhongju battalion becoming full of loopholes. Turrick kept roaring, and in order to stabilize the situation, he even killed two commanders with his own hands, but unfortunately, in the face of the overall situation, all efforts seemed so futile.
"Bang" Turrick's eyelids jumped, and he followed the sound to see a Germanic cavalryman lying in a pool of blood, his horse pressed against him, and all of them were silent. The battle continued, but the Germanic Erlang looked disorganized, Turrick knew that in the battle tonight, the church corps was finished, there were elite cavalry of the Orientals in front, and there was a sneak attack from the other side behind, and there was only one Chinese army camp left, and it was difficult to organize a decent counterattack, "Inform everyone, retreat in the direction of Yumsburg in the northwest, this is our only chance." ”
Turik's words were full of helplessness and lack of confidence, and he didn't know how many people would be able to escape in the end, but Yumsburg was the only hope, retreating to Hohenzollern, such a long distance, it was estimated that everyone would have to die under the sword of the Eastern cavalry. Yumsburg, is the last hope. After the order to retreat was issued, the Church Corps launched the largest retreat operation at the top of the Angry Water Mountain, and it was not easy for Turrick to decide to withdraw his troops on the spot. A large number of church soldiers were self-organized to break through the siege, which also created a situation of fighting on their own, and the situation was very chaotic. As long as he can survive, who can take care of other things, no one takes the initiative to stay behind the palace, and he does not deliberately organize the convergence of the north and south of the Dingguo army, which is doomed to the tragedy of the church corps.
Including the cavalry of the Ruifeng battalion, the cavalry of the ancient town, are the old fritters trained on the battlefield, the Chinese army camp is in chaos, the Germans began to break through, they did not bent on blocking, but intentionally or unintentionally gave way to a way, there is a way to live, the Germans did not have time to think more about breaking out along the road, when they broke out of the encirclement, the ancient town cavalry began to chase and kill. From the top of the Angry Water Mountain to Yumsburg, it became a passage of death.
The battle lasted for nearly ten hours, and it was not until the end of the next day and the beginning of the day that it was over. Yerusha had always been worried, and when he saw that Yang Zaixing was safe and sound, he finally showed a little smile, "Shao Lie, this battle is really dangerous, if the Germans can hold on and don't transfer a large number of troops from the south, then we will be unlucky." Speaking of this battle, I still sigh, this battle was too difficult, the church corps was so defeated, Turrick had to bear a lot of responsibility, if it was Byser or Sugers, they would definitely not easily mobilize troops and horses from the south to gallop to the north, Turrick, as a legion commander, was still too immature.
Turrick survived, but Miitel was not so lucky, and on his way to Yumsburg, he was chased by several ancient town cavalrymen and stabbed to death on horseback. 20,000 church corps, after one night, the remaining strength of the fighting force is less than 5,000 people, it can be said that the church corps that Gregory worked so hard to build has existed in name only, after a fiasco, the church soldiers are almost frightened, and how much combat effectiveness can be exerted in a real fight has become a big question mark.
