Chapter 475: The Brilliant Battle (4)

When the rumbling cannon sounded, Ah Shu was a little dazed. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

A Shu who has never learned the Dingkun cannon, for the judgment of artillery, is still at a very primitive level, for example, the return artillery, that is, when attacking the city, it can play a huge role, but when fighting in the field, it is impossible to have much effect, after all, the field combat sergeant moves very fast, maybe the return cannon can cause a certain psychological deterrent to the other party when he starts to throw boulders, but after a long time, the other party knows to avoid, and the return cannon has no real effect.

But the Dingkun cannon is completely different, and its lethality in the field is also huge.

In fact, the princes such as Brother Mo and Ha Bichi have specifically said that the Dingkun cannon is powerful, but unfortunately, at that time, Ah Shu did not pay attention to it at all, and because he had a very bad opinion of Mo Ge and other princes in his heart, Ah Shu thought that after the defeat of Brother Mo and others, most of the reasons for the defeat were attributed to the huge power of the Ming army's artillery, which was obviously a shirk of responsibility.

As for Boyan's death, in Ah Shu's view, it was also caused by poor command of the battle.

After all, Ah Shu's great military exploits make him qualified to look at many problems in this way.

Now the Dingkun cannon really fell on the sergeant under Ah Shu's command.

Braving the iron ball of sparks, rampage through the team, and everywhere it passes is a shocking bloody road.

This scene shocked Ah Shu and made him begin to truly realize the power of the Dingkun Cannon.

For a short period of time, Ah Shu's mind was completely blank, and all the analyses and judgments he had made, including the corresponding deployment, had problems, such as explaining that the army had abandoned Lianshui County and retreated to Haizhou Prefecture due to insufficient troops, and that the Ming army would only use a small team to stop the rapid advance of the large army, etc.

Although there was no trace of the Ming army, the whistling shells had already indicated that this was not a small unit of the Ming army.

Could it be that there is something wrong with all the analysis and judgment that has been made before?

The firing of a hundred artillery pieces was shocking, and the guards and heralds around Ah Shu shouted desperately loudly, shuttling through the middle of the team, and passing the order for Ah Shu's temporary evacuation, but many of these guards and heralds were also hit by cannonballs and turned into piles of flesh and blood paste.

The chaotic image that appeared in the team in an instant made Ah Shu not believe it, is this still the army that attacked Xiangyang Fucheng, or is it still the indomitable army in the battle of Dingjiazhou.

When several of Ashu's guards were hit by cannonballs, Ashu really came to his senses, and he found that manpower could not resist the attack of Dingkun artillery, so he did not hesitate to give the order to retreat on all fronts.

The Ming army has not really attacked, and the cavalry under Ah Shu's command has become a little chaotic, and the whistling cannonballs have panicked these sergeants.

Before the order was given, many of the sergeants turned their horses' heads and retreated to the rear.

However, this practice is fatal, some sergeants choose to evacuate, and some because they have not received the order to evacuate, they are still in the same place and other places, they collide with each other, preventing the movement of the army as a whole, even if the officers shout with all their might, it is useless, in the rumbling cannonball, individual shouts have little effect at all, and many sergeants cannot hear it.

By the time Ashu's order came, and the army began to reorganize its ranks and withdraw to the rear, nearly half an hour had passed.

The rumbling of artillery had not completely died down, and the earth began to tremble again.

This time, Ah Shu's face changed completely and became pale.

What does the tremor of the earth mean, Ah Shu is very clear, the glimmer of hope in his heart is completely shattered, Wu Shaogang really has an extraordinary momentum, and his goal is to target the army led by Ah Shu to conquer the south, and the people are not forced to give up Lianshui County, but set a trap to let the army get in.

After the artillery bombardment, the Ming army launched a charge.

The murderous aura brought by the black torrent surprised Ah Shu.

Such a murderous aura seems to only exist in the Mobei grassland, why does it appear in the Ming army.

The artillery bombardment stopped at the most opportune time, followed by a rain of arrows under black pressure.

The sergeants who had already turned around and evacuated were caught off guard, and they had no time to turn around to deal with the attacking Ming army.

The Ming army charged from the front and the left and right flanks, and it was impossible to see how many sergeants there were with the naked eye.

Ah Shu's order was issued again, to evacuate the sergeants at the rear of the team, resist the attack of the Ming army, and ensure that the cavalry in front could be evacuated smoothly, as for the foot soldiers who were not far away, they also evacuated in the direction of Lianshui County.

This order of Ah Shu is extremely wise, and it is not easy to give the right order at such a critical moment.

It's a pity that the development of the battle situation is not as simple as Ah Shu imagined.

When the black torrent collided with the gray and white team, the sound of horses neighing, screaming, and jingo colliding was heard.

At this moment, the Mongolian army fell into passivity, and the army of nearly 30,000 people was divided and surrounded into three pieces, and even Ah Shu himself was surrounded in the middle of the black torrent.

The unstoppable momentum of the Ming army shocked the cavalry of the Mongolian army.

30,000 Mongolian cavalry, of which less than 5,000 Mongolian cavalry, the rest are cavalry of the newly annexed army, and the combat effectiveness cannot be compared with the Mongolian cavalry.

The heavy casualties in a short period of time made Ah Shu's eyes red, he did not participate in the fight, and the guards around him formed a solid circle and wrapped him in the middle.

At this time, Ah Shu didn't care about any faceless matters, he asked the herald to give another order, and the whole army quickly withdrew in the direction of Lianshui County, no matter how big the casualties, they must be evacuated to the county seat.

With the city, it was always able to resist the attack of the Ming army.

This kind of evacuation, which does not take into account the casualties, still has an effect, after all, the Mongolian sergeants have just started to march, and they have not yet consumed much strength, and they are not capable of fighting with the other party, but they still have the strength to escape.

No one noticed Lu Wenhuan.

Lu Wenhuan's face was pale, looking at everything in front of him, he couldn't believe it at all, the Ming army under Wu Shaogang was so brave, when the Ming army charged over, it held an unstoppable murderous aura of thousands of troops and horses, which made Lu Wenhuan think that he was wrong, could it be that it was the Mongolian iron cavalry and the Mongolian heavy cavalry that charged.

It was also at this time that a bitter feeling hit his heart, Lu Wenhuan found that his choice seemed to be wrong, and it was very wrong, if he thought about it carefully, did not give up Xiangyang Mansion City, and did not follow his eldest brother Lu Wende to make a choice, today's situation seems to be different.

Xia Gui's experience, this moment also appeared in Lu Wenhuan's mind.

Lu Wenhuan is also by Ah Shu's side, he is also surrounded by personal guards, and he receives protection like other staff, but this kind of protection is different, the personal guards only pay attention to Ah Shu, as for Lu Wenhuan and many staff, they will protect themselves at this time.

Lu Wenhuan's ability is far stronger than those staff, after all, he is the former commander of the Great Song Dynasty.

After avoiding the shells many times, Lu Wenhuan had some intention of giving up.

Maybe being captured by the Ming army is not necessarily the worst thing, if you have to suffer this catastrophe sooner or later, it is better to deal with it calmly, so as not to avoid evading it with all your heart, and in the end it will be useless.

With the evacuation of the personal guards and Ashu, Lu Wenhuan was slowly thrown out of the circle.

The fighting on the battlefield is very tragic, and the final outcome of the lone person is death, and there is no other possibility.

The front and the left and right flanks were all controlled by the Ming army, and what could be evacuated was the road in the rear.

Lu Wenhuan did not choose to evacuate, he made an amazing move, that is, he dismounted and sat on the ground.

Lu Wenhuan had no weapon in his hand, dismounted and sat on the ground, which was regarded as a surrender.

Soon a sergeant of the Ming army ordered Lu Wenhuan to leave the battlefield and wait in the designated place.

Lu Wenhuan was very obedient, and without the slightest resistance, he followed to the assembly place.

However, Lu Wenhuan still attracted the attention of the Ming army sergeant, after all, his temperament was not ordinary.

A Ming army officer who was temporarily in charge of guarding the surrendered Mongolian sergeant asked Lu Wenhuan, but Lu Wenhuan did not hide it and told his identity.

So Lu Wenhuan was immediately taken care of alone.

Ah Shu finally evacuated and got rid of the siege and fighting of the Ming army.

At this moment, Ah Shu can no longer consider the casualties of 30,000 cavalry, the only thing he needs to do is to lead the rest of the sergeants to quickly evacuate to Lianshui County, while using the city to resist the attack of the Ming army, while trying to find a way to continue to evacuate towards Lianghuai, and wait until the army is really safe, and then consider how to fight with the Ming army.

The number of cavalry who evacuated with Ah Shu was not very large, and the vast majority of the cavalry were still in the war group, and they could not evacuate at all, Ah Shu thought about rushing into the war group several times and commanding more sergeants to evacuate, but his behavior was stopped by the guards around him, and in the eyes of many guards, joining the war group again was tantamount to looking for death.

When Ah Shu saw the team of foot soldiers, he breathed a long sigh of relief.

If the team is still there, there is still hope.

A doubt came to Ah Shu's mind again, why did the Ming army not choose to attack the infantry soldiers so bravely, could it be because the troops were not enough, and they could only rely on sharp artillery to attack the cavalry.

I think that although I think so, Ah Shu no longer dares to order the foot soldiers to attack forward and join the battle group, the Ming army is all cavalry, and the infantry is against the cavalry, which is the rhythm of looking for death.

Barely saying anything, Ah Shu took the lead in the direction of Lianshui County, and the foot soldiers also followed closely behind, heading in the direction of Lianshui County.

At this moment, Ah Shu didn't notice that Lu Wenhuan had disappeared at all.
