Chapter 297: Undercurrent (23)

The more than 200 new soldiers of the Xiao cavalry battalion who rushed out were He Tengxiao's last bargaining chips to break through the Liao army's horse formation. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Many of the soldiers on both sides rushed out like arrows off the string, and they could never turn back, never had a chance to turn back. At the moment they took this step, they were destined to be close to death.

The Liao army looked at these bare-handed soldiers with some suspicion, and frantically rushed towards these new soldiers of their cavalry battalion. These new pawns don't even have a short blade in their hands, so why do they rush out and fight them for their lives? Isn't it death to rush up like this?

The Liao army miscalculated the dead soldiers of these cavalry battalions. These dead soldiers of the cavalry battalion who rushed towards the Liao army did not carry weapons, but the weapons were hidden on them, and the Liao army did not see them.

The weapon they hid on their bodies was terrifying, and their weapon was not an ordinary weapon, but a flowering bullet that had ignited the fuse!

The Liao army didn't know why, and stood in place waiting for these soldiers of the Xiao cavalry battalion to pounce on them and end their lives easily.

It's just that the Liao army was wrong, and it wasn't until the dead soldiers of these Xiao cavalry battalions rushed in front of them that the Liao army noticed the strangeness: inside the military robes of these Xiao Cai battalion soldiers, there was a big iron ball, and there was a slight sound from this iron ball. The air is filled with the characteristic smell of burning leads.

This voice, this taste, is unfamiliar to the Liao Army. The dead soldiers of the cavalry battalion who pounced on them were not unarmed. Instead, they carried a new type of weapon that they had never encountered before: flowering shells.

At this time, whether the Liao army wanted to kill these dead soldiers of the Zhao army who did not want to die, or wanted to escape, it was too late. The dead soldiers of the cavalry battalion had already rushed into the horse formation of the Liao army.

One after another, the flowering bombs exploded in the Liao army's horse formation. The Liao army's horse formation was dense, and the flowering bomb exploded in the dense horse formation of the Liao army, causing great casualties to the Liao army. Every time the flowering bomb exploded, a piece of Liao army iron cavalry fell around, and in the pool of blood everywhere, there were severed limbs and stumps of people and horses scattered everywhere. It's miserable.

The Liao army's horse formation was blown up by flowering shells. At this moment, the will of the Liao army finally collapsed, and the Liao army had never seen such a terrifying weapon.

He Tengxiao's eyes were filled with tears, his eyes were blurry, and his mind was dizzy. Almost fell under the horse. Fortunately, Zhou Shi and Chang Qing saw that He Tengxiao's situation was abnormal, and hurriedly supported He Tengxiao, and He Tengxiao did not fall off the horse.

The defense line of the Liao army was broken, and the defense line of the Liao army was broken at the cost of the lives of more than 200 soldiers of the cavalry battalion. He Tengxiao blamed himself for pushing these new pawns to death and adopting this crazy act of suicidal charge. It's just that He Tengxiao doesn't have a choice, if they don't sacrifice them, more people will be sacrificed because of this, and it may even be that the whole army will be defeated, and thousands of people will die under the butcher's knife of the Liao army.

"The wind is sluggish and the water is cold, and the strong man will never return. Who is said that Yan Zhao has many strong men, and there are many strong men in Liaodong, and the strong men in Liaodong are not inferior to the strong men in Yan Zhao at all. ”

The scene that had just happened under the city made Song Yuren, who had been standing on the head of the city watching the battle, feel deeply shocked. Unexpectedly, He Tengxiao would finally launch a charge in such a way and break through the last line of defense of the Liao army.

He Tengxiao is really ruthless, Peng Chaodong thought. Peng Chaodong is no stranger to the weapon of flowering bullets, and the most commonly used artillery shells in the world are still solid bullets, after all, the artillery technology in the world is not yet mature, and the use of solid bullets is very reluctant. Not to mention the use of more technically demanding flowering shells.

The flowering shell was invented during the Taizong period, and it was called an artifact at the time. However, due to the high technical requirements of the flowering bomb and the large cost, in the Taizong period, the cost of a qualified flowering bomb was two taels of silver. That is to say, every shell fired is two taels of silver.

Such an extravagant style of play is not something that the Great Zhao Empire can bear. Hence the flowering bomb though was invented. However, due to technical and cost reasons, it was not popularized among Zhao Jun. It was only used on a small scale in the Taizong Dynasty.

And He Tengxiao is still the first person to use flowering shells to be a **** and engage in a suicidal charge. Peng Chaodong couldn't understand how He Tengxiao could come up with such a crazy way to deal with the Liao army.

The horse formation of the Liao army finally collapsed under the attack of the ****, in fact, even if the will of the Liao army was very tenacious, it did not rush under the attack of human shells. After all, their mounts and horses are just livestock, and no matter how human they are, they can't behave like people.

It is not uncommon for horses to be frightened in the face of unusual situations, especially explosions.

At this moment, the gate of Jingshi City slowly opened, and after the city gate was opened, it had already been assembled in the urn city, and only waited for an order, so he went out of the city to receive the Qin army of King Qin, and poured out of the city gate like a tide, and rushed straight to the Liao army.

The Liao army was attacked from both sides by the Zhao army, and the form of the Liao army took a sharp turn, and the balance of victory was no longer in favor of the Liao army unconsciously. The change of direction is biased towards Zhao Jun.

Wanyan Shengcong knew that the defeat of this battle was decided, and the Liao army lost this battle, and it was still winning more with less.

Although it was defeated, Wan Yan Shengcong felt very uncomfortable, but the taste of defeat Wan Yan Shengcong finally had to taste it. Wanyan Shengcong didn't stay on the battlefield for long, Mingjin withdrew his troops and prepared to clean up the mess. After this battle, the Liao army only suffered three or four thousand casualties.

Seeing that the Liao army was gone, the Qinwang army that followed the Xiao Cavalry Battalion and the Tengbao Battalion to pick up the bargain saw that the Liao army was gone, and knew that breaking through the Liao army's defense line and entering the Jingshi City was just a soft persimmon. There is no hard battle to fight anymore. The tough battle that should be fought has been fought by He Tengxiao's Xiao Cavalry Battalion and Teng Leopard Battalion.

Therefore, the Qinwang army from all walks of life showed extra enthusiasm at the last moment, and seeing that there were troops in the Jingshi City to respond, it strengthened their courage, and they were eager to enter the Jingshi City in front of the Xiaocai Battalion and the Tengbao Battalion. Accept the welcome of the people of Jingshi City.

Shan Futian spat at the ground, expressing his unremitting and dissatisfied with the army of these Qinwang who saw the wind and steered the rudder. At the same time, Shan Futian not only felt sorry for the soldiers who died in the Xiao Cavalry Battalion and the Tengbao Battalion, they were all good soldiers. After the first battle of Yangcun and the next battle of Jingshi City, the consumption of the two battles, these two battalions that were not originally full of formations may have also been disabled.

In the future battles, I am afraid it will be difficult to do anything.

The Xiao Cavalry Battalion and the Teng Leopard Battalion carried the military flag symbolizing their glory, trampled on the corpses of the Liao army, and stepped through the defense line of the Liao army. In the sun, the flags of the Xiaoqi Battalion and the Tengbao Battalion were stretched out in the wind. The words embroidered on the flag are particularly dazzling and eye-catching.

Wanyan Shengcong watched as the banners of the Xiao Cavalry Battalion and the Teng Leopard Battalion trampled over the corpses of the Manshu warriors. The anger was extreme, and the words Xiao Cavalry Camp and Teng Leopard Camp on the banner pierced Wan Yan Shengcong's heart like a needle, and Wan Yan Shengcong's heart was dripping blood.
