Chapter 354: Heavenly Punishment Comes
As soon as Jerod turned the horse's head, there was another loud bang, and it was more than ten times louder than the sound of the pontoon just now, and the whole ground shook.
Chao Yong was more than a mile away from the explosion site, and he felt pain in his eardrums. In order to minimize casualties, Chao Yong did not save black powder, and the entire five hundred catties of black powder were all placed in the tunnel.
He didn't think about killing the leading general, he just wanted to give the Liao soldiers a dismount, cause chaos among the Liao soldiers, and then take advantage of the situation to cover up and kill the Liao soldiers. Therefore, the location is very easy to choose, not too far from the left and right of the pontoon bridge, after the Liao soldiers cross the river, they will definitely gather soldiers and horses nearby to protect the pontoon bridge.
Smoke filled the air, dust flew, screams of joy, screams of terror, frightened neighing of horses.
A huge crater suddenly appeared at the place of the explosion, and the stumps and broken arms flew in all directions, and the casualties of Liao soldiers were uncountable.
What's even more terrifying is that this loud noise frightened all the war horses of the Liao soldiers, rampaged, people turned over on their backs, and many died under the hooves of their comrades behind them.
"Heavenly Punishment"
A Liao soldier jumped off his horse, knelt on the ground, and shouted in despair while kowtowing.
Without shouting a few times, he was trampled to the ground by the frightened war horse behind, and then many war horses trampled past.
However, it attracted more Liao people to ignore the war horses scurrying everywhere, and jumped off their horses one after another and knelt on the ground.
Five hundred catties of black powder exploded, the ground shook, and many war horses directly broke their hooves and fell to the ground.
In the eyes of many Liao people, this is not gunpowder, but heavenly punishment, and the power that can make the entire ground shake is only available to the elderly.
Not to mention that the war horses on the south bank are scurrying around, even the war horses on the north bank are frightened.
Yelu Yanxi was originally standing by the river with a group of generals, waiting to cross the river.
The pontoon bridge was suddenly blown up, Yelu Yanxi was startled, and the war horse under his crotch was also thunderous, but Yelu Yanxi was also a person who rode on horseback all day long, and his riding skills were naturally exquisite. was not thrown down by the war horse, but gradually calmed down the war horse.
Unexpectedly, before the war horse quieted down, there was another earth-shattering noise, and across the river, you could feel the tremor of the ground. The war horse under the crotch suddenly panicked, neighed, and rushed straight into the river.
Yelu Yanxi was also a little frightened by the dusty formation on the other side, and when he reacted, he had already thrown people into the water on behalf of his horse.
Can Yelu Yanxi swim?
He would, to this man who was on the safari every day. Eat, drink and be merry, nothing will not be.
Yelu Yanxi entered the water, took a sip of water, and then kicked away his beloved war horse and swam to the shore.
"Save the Emperor"
Xiao Fengxian, who was behind, saw that there was a chance to perform, and immediately shouted, and ran to the river to catch the emperor.
"Save the Emperor"
"Save the Emperor"
Xiao Fengxian's voice suddenly made the Liao people who had not crossed the river also blow up their nests, and the people by the river shouted one by one. Dismount to save the emperor.
The unknown people behind also rushed forward, and many people were squeezed into the river alive.
Many soldiers on the south bank were already frightened, and when they heard the shouts to save the emperor, many timid people jumped directly into the river. Swim to the North Shore.
Although he was a deserter, he could be said to save the emperor afterwards.
Chao Yong naturally did not miss the opportunity, and as soon as the Liao soldiers were in chaos, he immediately led people to attack the Liao soldiers.
Dong Ping's horse army was waiting a few miles away. I heard a loud noise, and it whistled.
The thunder is loud and the rain is small
The battle was completely anticlimactic, and the two sides were like great enemies before the battle. But no one expected that after the five hundred catties of black powder were blasted together, it would become a farce.
Chao Yong rushed over with an army of 50,000, but the Liao soldiers couldn't control their horses, and many knelt on the ground and prayed, and they didn't know how to resist when the sword and axe were around.
Li Kui didn't know how many Liao soldiers he had cut down, and the ones he killed were bloody and demonic.
It didn't take much time for Chao Yong to kill to the river, and when he returned to see Li Kui cutting down the prisoners there, he hurriedly shouted: "Abandon the weapon and don't kill." ”
Jiao Ting, who had been in charge of monitoring Li Kui, heard the prince's order and hurriedly grabbed Li Kui.
Li Kui glared at Jiao Ting and said, "These are Liao dogs, why don't you kill the people who killed our people?" ”
Jiao Ting shook his head and said, "The prince has an order, you go and ask the prince." ”
Li Kui raised his eyebrows, walked up to Chao Yong, and said, "Keep these Liao dogs for a bird, is it possible that the prince still wants to adopt them?" ”
Chao Yong smiled: "Sell for money." ”
Li Kui frowned, thought for a while, and said, "Sell it to the rich man as a subordinate?" ”
Chao Yongchong gestured behind him and said with a smile: "No, sell it to the emperor of Liao on the other side." ”
Li Kui glared at the bull's eye and said, "Are they willing to pay?" ”
Chao Yong said with a smile: "Liao is the time to employ people, and we have also captured some generals. They're going to want it. ”
Li Kui scratched his head and said, "But if you sell it to them, maybe they will cross the river and kill our people again." In my opinion, it was still clean. ”
Chao Yong said with a smile: "The Liao people don't have many troops to go south, and after knowing that we are not easy to provoke, they will not dare to provoke a war again." ”
Li Kui saw Chao Yong say this, and he could only carry an axe to kill the Liao soldiers who resisted.
Besides, Wu Yanguang was also startled by the explosion, but when he thought of the cannon that blew up the bridge, he knew that it was Liang Guo's artillery. But he could calm down, but his war horse couldn't calm down, and he rushed sideways with him like crazy, knocking over several Liao soldiers.
Wu Yanguang saw that he couldn't pacify the war horse, and if he let the war horse rush, he would have to leave the battlefield, so he could only abandon the horse and prepare to fight with the soldiers and horses of the Liang State.
This guy is difficult to deal with, with the courage of ten thousand people, and he wears three layers of armor: a layer of chain iron armor in the paste, a heavy sea beast skin armor in the middle, and a chain gold armor on the outside. Ordinary soldiers faced him and slashed him down, at most, cutting through two layers of his armor, and he couldn't hurt him.
For a while, he killed many people.
Dadao Guan Sheng was close to his left, and he had already killed him, but when he saw Wu Yanguang killing his soldiers behind him, he turned his head and killed him again.
The two of them made a mixed iron point steel spear, and the other made the Qinglong Yanyue knife, both of which were long weapons, if there were some restrictions on the horse, the two of them were fighting with amazing momentum under the horse, although both of them were full body armor, but it did not prevent them from flashing and moving at all, and as soon as the two of them started fighting, no one dared to enter within a radius of ten zhang.
But soon, the situation of the two fighting alone was broken.
"Eat grandpa's axe."
A big black man shouted, and then broke into the battle circle between the two, and the plate axe frantically slashed at Wu Yanguang.
As soon as Li Kui took the lead, the generals around him who were already hot in their eyes rushed up.
Wu Yanguang danced the spear and resisted for a few rounds, then Yan Qing was bullied from behind, tripped and fell to the ground, and then everyone held down Wu Yanguang with all hands and feet to catch him.
Choujun Ma Xuanzan twisted one of Wu Yanguang's arms, shook his head and said, "Who caught this?" ”
Li Kui squeezed away Xiang Chong and Li Gon, and said while walking out: "It's really defeated, and I didn't kill it." ”
This black guy didn't take a fancy to Wu Yanguang wearing chain gold armor, but just killed some Liao soldiers, and saw that there was only a fight here, so he grabbed it in.
The other leaders felt that Wu Yanguang should be a general of the Liao State, so they stayed around to see if there was a chance.
However, Guan Sheng and Wu Yanguang were fighting in a good fight, and they were embarrassed to grab the credit, until Li Kui's disruptive situation appeared, and then it was like this.
The highest rank of several generals is Guan Sheng, who also fought with Wu Yanguang before, Choujun Ma Xuanzan is his deputy general, and Yan Qing is Lu Junyi's deputy general.
Guan Sheng looked at a few people, and didn't want to hurt the harmony, so he said with a smile: "Let's count this guy that we worked together to arrest, okay, let's take someone over, the prince is still waiting over there." ”
Everyone turned their heads to see that many generals had already captured Liao Jiang and asked the prince for merit by the pontoon bridge, so they also escorted Wu Yanguang to the pontoon bridge.
Yelu Dashi was caught by Zhang Kai, his martial arts were not outstanding, and the open steel gun was uncanny, and the two fought more than a dozen times, and Yelu Dashi was captured.
By the time the dust of the blasting had fallen silent, the fighting on the south bank was over, and several thousand Liao soldiers had been driven into the river, most of whom were drowned except for a few who could swim.
There were also thousands of people who trampled on each other and died, some were killed by the explosion, a few were cut down by the soldiers and horses of the Great Liang, and the rest were all taken prisoner, and almost half of the prisoners were so frightened by the explosion that they knelt on the ground and surrendered obediently.
