Chapter 162: Duoduo is captured

The battle finally came to an end when the sun was setting in the west. The entire battlefield was full of wolves, the smoke of gunpowder was filled, there were severed limbs and stumps everywhere, shouts of killing were still coming and going, and the sound of muskets was still continuous.

Hot weapons are far more lethal than cold weapons, and the continuous shooting and explosion of muskets and grenades harvested a large number of Jiannu's lives.

The successive charges of tens of thousands of Jiannu have multiplied the lethality of the muskets in the hands of the Ming soldiers, and it is not an exaggeration to describe it as a practical massacre. Cao Yue really couldn't understand why Jiannu wanted to adopt this kind of crowd tactics, and instead of other strategies, he rushed forward to the musket array on his side, which was tantamount to suicide. The sergeant on the horse is really similar to the target of the gun. In later generations, it was difficult for an army equipped with very modern weapons to achieve such brilliant results in war, and no army was stupid enough to charge in such a way.

It turned out that in the Battle of Bali Bridge in history, the European coalition forces paid the price of a few people and wiped out tens of thousands of Qing troops, which was originally difficult for Cao Yue to understand. But now, after many wars, he can fully understand.

Cao Yue believed that the weapons and equipment of the European coalition forces in history would not be better than the Ming Guards led by him, and the number of musketeers was not so much.

Today's victory, Cao Yue is not surprised. It's just that he didn't expect that the casualties paid by his side would be so large, according to the battlefield report, the casualties of the Ming cavalry have been thousands, the musketeers have at least one or two thousand casualties, and the dead are also hundreds.

Fortunately, the initiative on the battlefield has always been in his hands, and now the war is nearing its end, even if he pays a lot of casualties, Cao Yue doesn't care. The only thing he asked for now. It is to wipe out all the remnants of Jiannu at any cost, and never let the large-scale Jiannu break through and escape.

One thing that Cao Yue didn't quite understand was that Jiannu didn't seem to have the idea of breaking through and escaping, and was still fighting hard.

This also led to increasing casualties among the Ming cavalry, and the musketeers had to take the initiative to charge in order to end the battle as soon as possible.

Such a tactic. The casualty rate of the musketeers has certainly increased, but the lethality of the Jiannu has certainly increased.

However, it is worth paying a little bigger than expected, and the last bit of strength of Jiannu is destined to be destroyed today.

In order to end the battle as soon as possible, Cao Yue ordered everyone to go to the battlefield to fight, and he himself led the guards and joined the battle group.

It's just that Cao Yue himself didn't shoot any of the enemy, he was tightly surrounded by thousands of guards, and the guards were armed with the latest repeating muskets. Kills all enemies that come your way.

The chambers of these muskets are made of punches, and the use and bullets are copper shells, which have high shooting accuracy, long range, and far greater lethality than other muskets. Because of the reloading and fixed ammunition modes, the production process is far more complex than other muskets, so it is expensive, and only a small part of the army is now equipped.

And Cao Yue's personal guards. That is, the Jiading Army, which was the first army to be equipped with such rifles.

Jiannu at this time. He was already in a state of chaos, and although it was said that Dodor was desperately stance, his sergeants did not think so. After several battles, they already had a deep fear of the Daming musketeers. Today's huge casualties have also completely crushed the fighting spirit of many sergeants, and the Ming musketeers were seen holding rifles. The line rushed over neatly, and many Jiannu turned around and fled, not daring to rush again.

The explosion of a huge grenade and the sound of musket bullets knocked the Jiannu rout to the ground, and further casualties further demoralized the other Jiannu. In the end, they couldn't hold it anymore and scrambled to escape, not daring to fight the Ming sergeants.

The Jiannu who were preparing to charge in front of the rout fled, and also impacted the other Jiannu who were entangled with the Ming cavalry, and the morale of the Jiannu rear army, which was greatly affected, also fell into a state of collapse under the influence of the rout.

Naturally, the Ming soldiers would not miss such an opportunity, and they heard that Cao Yue also personally led the army to rush to the battlefield, and their morale was more and more encouraged.

The battlefield that was originally wrenched soon turned into a one-sided situation, and Jiannu, whose confidence collapsed, no longer listened to Duoduo and Yue Le's orders, and became a mess. In the chaos, Yue Le was beaten into a sieve by a row of random guns and died on the battlefield, and the guards around him were basically annihilated.

Cao Yue rode his horse to a high ground and held a telescope to check the situation on the battlefield.

Suddenly, he saw a group of nearly 1,000 Jiannu in the distance, quickly killing in the direction of the high ground where he was standing.

This Jiannu ignored the other Ming soldiers along the way, and regardless of the muskets that kept shooting at them, they rushed in this direction like a desperate one. This was completely different from the chaotic situation of Jiannu in other places, and Cao Yue subconsciously thought that it was probably the men and horses led by Duoduo or other Jiannu nobles. He knows that in this era, the personal soldiers around the main general are the strongest combat effectiveness, the same is true of the Ming army, and the same is true of Jiannu. The team of Jiannu who has always maintained order must be the personal soldiers of the head of Jiannu.

Cao Yue was instantly full of passion, and he ordered his own soldiers around him to prepare for battle. Since the pair of Jiannu came in the direction where he stood, let the most elite musketeers of the Ming Dynasty welcome them.

Under Cao Yue's order, the two thousand five hundred soldiers around him lined up in three arc-shaped defensive formations, raising their guns to aim at Jiannu, who was rushing in this direction quickly. They also ignored the other Ming soldiers who were chasing all the way, and they would not stop shooting even if they accidentally injured themselves after a battle.

Soon the group of Jiannu rushed to the range of the rifles, and under Cao Yue's personal order, the soldiers began to shoot.

The rifle makes a different sound from other muskets, which is very pleasant to listen to. With the concentrated shooting of the pro-soldiers, the Jiannu who came from the impact was shot over. But the Jiannu behind was still not frightened, and continued to rush forward.

They also knew that the Ming army on the high ground was likely to be Cao Yue, so they also rushed to kill at any cost, trying to rush to the high ground and have a close hand-to-hand fight with the Ming army. But Jiannu will never have such a chance, and the shooting of more than 2,000 rifles can completely intercept them with only more than 1,000 people. Round after round of musket fire, Jiannu kept falling, and finally only those who were at the bottom were left.

Looking at their outfits, Cao Yue knew that the middlemost people were nobles from Jiannu, and their status was definitely not low. He ordered the guards around him to stop shooting and prepare to capture the Jiannu nobles alive.

Cao Yue's orders were strictly enforced, and most of the remaining Jiannu were wounded, and in the end, only the core one was not shot.

The only remaining Jiannu nobleman, after seeing that all the soldiers around him were shot to the ground, sighed in despair, and also threw away the war knife in his hand and gave up resistance. And the personal soldiers around Cao Yue rushed up, subdued the injured Jiannu, and then pulled the Jiannu nobleman who was sitting on the horse off his horse and escorted him to Cao Yue.

"I'm Cao Yue," Cao Yue motioned to let go of the Jiannu nobleman, and asked after reporting his name, "Who are you?" ”

"This king is Aixin Jueluo. Duoduo," the Jiannu gritted his teeth and reported his name, holding his head high, staring at Cao Yue deadly, and trying to struggle,

"It turned out to be Duoduo," Cao Yue smiled and approached Duoduo's side, "I have heard the name of Prince Yu for a long time, and I am really fortunate to see him today!" (To be continued.) )
