Chapter 139: The Far Eastern Campaign (5)

Jebeli watched as Yan Jun hung the lantern on the wall, and he waved his arm violently. The three thousand death squads moved forward slowly, trying to keep the distance as short as possible so that they could get closer to the wall before the Yan army found out. The three thousand death squads were like mercury pouring into the ground, and like wolves sneaking in the dark night, approaching the wall little by little.

One of Duan Xiaosi's gunners had eaten a little too much for dinner, and in the process of rushing towards the latrine, one of the anxious gunners in his belly accidentally touched the thunderbolt on a ballista that was ready to be loaded. With a bang, the thunderbolt emitted green smoke. The gunner was so frightened that he hurriedly stepped on the pedal, and with a whew, the thunderbolt flew out and landed right into the crowd of Dongjung death squads approaching the wall.

Boom, the explosion sounded, the death squad was blown down, and the thunderbolts tied to their bodies were also detonated, the explosion sounded, and the three thousand death squads suddenly accelerated towards the wall with a shout. How could the Flying Tiger Army not know that it was the enemy's sneak attack, the defense line that was still silent just now was instantly brightly lit, thunderbolts rained down, arrows were scattered like a storm, and the three thousand death squads were instantly shrouded in the rain of arrows in the fire net.

The thunderbolts fired by the Flying Tigers often detonate a large area when they fall, and even if there are daredevils who have rushed through the fire net, most of them cannot escape the interception of the dense rain of arrows. But after all, it is at night, and even if there is lantern lighting, the brightness and illumination range are limited. When a Dongjung daredevil, after breaking through the rain of arrows from the fire net, he slammed into the wall with the last of his strength with the wolf's fangs and arrows all over his body.

"Karalongtai!"

Boom, the daredevils pulled the thunderbolt on his chest, and a violent explosion sounded, and the section of the wall was blown down, and even the soldiers of the Flying Tiger Army on the wall were blown out. Dozens of thunderbolts were immediately strapped to the bodies of each of the daredevils, and the power of the explosion should not be underestimated, and the Flying Tiger Army suffered relatively large casualties for the first time since landing.

"Karalongtai!"

"Karalongtai ~~~~"

One by one, the daredevils rushed to the wall with their last breath, and one by one the walls were destroyed. When more than a dozen daredevils all blew themselves up in front of the wall, the wall was blown down and a wide gap was blown up, which was the result of the 3,000 daredevils.

"Warriors, kill!"

Jeberi roared, and 27,000 Dongrong cavalry rushed to the gap with a shout. A fierce offensive and defensive battle broke out in an instant.

Jeberi was about to hurry forward when he heard someone calling him from behind.

"Jebeli, the Great Khan ordered you to return to the city quickly, the defense line along the river has been broken through by the Yan army, the Huamutun Khan was killed in battle, and the Yan army is killing towards the Great Khan City. The Great Khan ordered you to lead the Golden Wolf Cavalry to block the Yan army, and this place will be handed over to the command of Uqimai Khan. ”

It was Bayintu, the new khan of the White Wolf Ministry, who spoke from the White Wolf Ministry, that is, Bayin's son. Jebeli was so shocked that he handed over the command to Uqimai without bothering to ask questions, and then ran with Bayintu towards the Great Khan.

At this time, the Great Khan City was in chaos, and various troops and horses poured out of the city gate to assemble outside the city. When Jebeli arrived at the city gate, the 30,000 golden wolf horsemen had already completed their whole procession, waiting for him to arrive.

"Don't panic, the whole army is quiet, and listen to the orders of the Great Khan."

The High Priest Mullen was now also in armor, and his prestige was high, and when he finished shouting these words, the noise outside the city gradually subsided.

"Warriors, the defense line of the Meilin Chu River has been broken through by the Yan army, and the Yan army is killing here, and the critical moment for Dongrong has arrived. Warriors, we Dongrong have never been afraid of strong enemies, and we have never yielded to the enemy, and the Great Khan has decided to stay here and fight to the death with the Yan army. May the ancestors bless, the wolf god bless me Dongrong, no matter whether you win or lose the battle tonight, the living people must remember the expectations of the ancestors, and must reproduce the glory of Dongrong. ”

"Great Khan, we live and die with you."

"Hahahaha, my brothers, don't die easily, Dongrong still needs you. Now listen to my commands. Jebeli led the golden wolf cavalry in the center, Bayintu led the headquarters to the left, and Jimut led the headquarters to the right. ”

Jebeli, Jimut, and Bayintu each led 30,000 men and horses to lead their orders.

"The Red Wolf Department Walden obeyed the order, and the Great Khan appointed you as the Khan of the Red Wolf Department to protect the people of the various ministries and the families of the Khans of each department and retreat to the old camp. High priest, go back to the old camp as well. ”

"Great Khan, I'd better stay with you."

"No, you are the high priest of Dongrong, a wise man who can communicate with the wolf god, Dongrong can't live without you. Besides, if there is any case, you still need to support the new Khan. ”

"Great Khan~~~, okay, I'll go to the old camp. May I ask the Great Khan, if anything, who will take over as the Great Khan? ”

"If Jeberi is there, let Jeberi take over. In Jebeli's absence, you will take up the burden until the eldest brother of Erdunk sends a new Khan. ”

"Muren obeys, Great Khan take care."

The Great Khan City was noisy, and the families of the various tribes and the upper nobles of Dongrong, under the protection of the cavalry of the Red Wolf Division, withdrew from the Great Khan City and retreated towards the old camp. Su Erhu sent away his sister Su Meiduo, looking at Su Meiduo who kept asking about Cui Ci's situation, Su Erhu's heart was like a needle pricked. He didn't tell Su Meiduo that Cui Ci actually helped Yan Jun, because until now, Su Erhu still couldn't be sure whether Cui Ci did it on purpose or if he was deceived by someone else. Su Erhu patiently told Su Meiduo that Cui Ci was not in Haiqizi this time, so it should be fine, and Su Meiduo was relieved. She hugged her brother vigorously and repeatedly told Su Erhu to be careful and not to fight hard. Aren't there a saying in Yan that the people of Yan are called to stay in the green mountains, and they are not afraid of no firewood. As long as people live, sooner or later they will regain what they have lost.

Su Erhu nodded uncontrollably and agreed to his sister's plea, and the brother and sister said goodbye in tears. Su Erhu stood on the tower of the Great Khan City, looking at the direction of the Merlin Chu River, he was summing up the gains and losses at the moment. Su Meiduo is right, stay in the green mountains and are not afraid of no firewood. As long as Dongrong's strength is still there, he is not afraid that there is no chance to turn over, and the temporary loss is nothing, not to mention that there is also Brother Erdunke. Thinking of this, the remorse in Su Erhu's heart was swept away, and he ordered loudly.

"Close the gates and tell Jebeli that if they can't resist them, they will fight and retreat, and each of them will break through and return to their old camp. If we lose this time, there will be a next time, and one day we will set foot in the Great Yan Imperial Capital. ”

The fierce battle of Haiqizi continued, and Wu Qimai did not blindly storm the Yan army after taking over the command, because more than 10,000 people had fallen in front of the gap. Needless to say, Uqimai knew that there must be a more formidable line of defense behind the gap. So he changed the way of fighting and gave full play to the advantages of the Dongrong cavalry, that is, cavalry shooting.

Under the command of Wu Qimai, the Dongrong cavalry galloped around the wall in waves with a thousand people as a unit, and the advantages of Dongrong cavalry shooting quickly and accurately were brought into play. Although the Flying Tigers' thunderbolts were still dense, their power was greatly reduced when the Dongrong cavalry was galloping at high speed and running in a curve. The soldiers of the Flying Tiger Army and the Dongrong cavalry on the wall launched a confrontation, and the two sides went back and forth, and the killing was inextricable.

After Guan Changyun put down his clairvoyance, he said to Zhang Deyi: "The enemy's combat style has changed, and it seems that Jebeli has been transferred. This shows that Su Erhu already knows the news that the defense line has been broken through by our army, and he will definitely be prepared. For the sake of today's plan, we should quickly break through the blockade of the enemy in front of us, kill Jingyuan City, and surround it as soon as possible. It was a little difficult for us to capture Jingyuan with a few thousand of us, but we had a large number of thunderbolts, so we bombarded Jingyuan with crossbow artillery, smashed the Jingyuan city gate, killed and wounded a large number of enemy troops, and created an opportunity for the commander to conquer Jingyuan. It would be better if all the nobles and their families of Dongrong could be blocked in the city. ”

"Okay, no problem, I'll lead the cavalry to attack."

"Don't panic, first transfer the iron wall car up, give them a ruthless blow, and then attack."

Uqimai was relieved to see that his tactics worked. He believed that as long as he continued to fight like this, the Yan army would not break through his own defense line until dawn, and as long as the Yan army was dragged here, whether they defended or retreated, the Great Khan could deal with it calmly.

Just when another thousand-strong team entered the battlefield, the wall of the Flying Tiger Army was suddenly knocked down from inside, and behemoths rumbled out.

"Iron Wall Car! Oh no, blow the trumpet quickly, and the whole army will retreat quickly. ”

Wu Qimai's order could not be said to be untimely, and he had a deep understanding of the power of the iron-walled car. Those big guys, even if you kill all the horses pulling the cart, you can't stop the dense rain of arrows shot from the car, not to mention all kinds of thunderbolts to cheer you on. Unless another death squad is sent to blow them up one after another, but Yan Jun is not a fool, will he wait for you to blow them up? Apparently not. The only way was to take advantage of the cavalry's mobility to separate the Tiebi Che from the Yan army behind it, and set fire to the Tiebi Chariot one by one.

Wu Qimai thought well, but the Flying Tiger Army would not give him a chance, dozens of iron arm cars opened a battle line as soon as they drove out of the wall, and slowly advanced, and in the gap of the iron arm cars were rows of Flying Tiger Army cavalry. The power of the iron-walled chariot was fully exerted, and the maneuver space of the Dongrong cavalry was gradually compressed, and in the face of the monsters that kept shooting sharp arrows and firing thunderbolts, the Dongrong cavalry had to retreat one after another.

And at this moment, the horn sounded, which was an order to withdraw troops. The Dongrong cavalry, who were struggling to support, retreated with a hula. It should be said that the command of Uqimai made a mistake at this time, that is, he should resist and retreat one by one, rather than retreating all at once. Wu Qimai's mistake was caught by Guan Changyun in time.

"Flying Tiger Army, assault!"

With the issuance of the order, Zhang Deyi and Qin Wuyang led the cavalry to kill Wuqimai on the left and right, and the Dongrong cavalry who were retreating were chased and beaten by the Flying Tiger Army, and they were in a mess for a while. The Dongrong cavalry, who was not good at night fighting, was in chaos in an instant, and fled towards the Great Khan City like a swarm.

"The whole army is pursuing, the target is Jingyuan City, kill it!"

Guan Changyun urged the horse to pick up the knife and led the army to chase after him. The defense of the sea is handed over to the wind maniac again, and the wind mania stands on the wall and laughs.

"Bad boys, fight hard, win this battle, Lao Feng invites you to drink. The ironwall convoy advances. ”

Duan Xiaosi was not only the commander of the artillery corps this time, but also became the commander of the ironwall convoy, the little gunner who once knew how to eat meat and fire cannons, after experiencing several major battles, quickly grew into a qualified commander.

When Uqimai retreated to the city of the Great Khan, the Flying Tiger Army had already chased them and killed them, and Uqimai shouted to the Surhu in the city: "Great Khan, Uqimai will die here, and the Great Khan must not open the city gate." ”

"Brother Uqimai, you go quickly, go to the old camp quickly. How much can you keep now, don't fight hard. Hurry up, hurry away. ”

Wu Qimai cried and led 10,000 remnants of the army to run around the city wall into the distance, and thousands of arrows on the city blocked the pursuit of Zhang Deyi and Hei Shuiliang.

"Don't go forward, that will only increase casualties, is Xiaosi here? Immediately set up artillery attacks. ”

Duan Xiaosi's artillery team had just arrived, and he left to order the cannons. A moment later, a thunderbolt exploded at the head of Jingyuan City, and a fierce battle began. (To be continued.) )
