Chapter 565: Rush to buy
Five thousand light horsemen attacked the left and right flanks of the clan alliance from both flanks, and the crossbows in the hands of the knights shot like a shower, interspersed with violently exploding grenades.
The dense explosion of bows and arrows and fierce grenades allowed the coalition soldiers to resist for only a quarter of an hour, and the beaten soldiers were completely disheartened and scattered in all directions.
The same was true of the soldiers and horses in front of the infantry formation of the Liaodong Army, who were constantly thrown into the dense military formation one by one by the hundreds of projectiles of the engineer battalion, causing heavy casualties.
After a day of fierce fighting, the coalition army, which was already facing collapse, finally could no longer withstand such a fierce blow. The officers of the clan who supervised the battle in the rear were the first to turn around and flee the battle, and the distance of the bombs thrown by the Liaodong army was much farther than that of the bow and crossbow, and the violent explosion of the first wave just now had killed more than a dozen officers of the clan one after another.
When they forced those ordinary soldiers to come forward and brave the rain of arrows to attack suicidally, they did not absolutely do anything. But when they themselves faced this fierce rain of arrows, they couldn't bear it.
As soon as the officers of the clan who supervised the battle fled, the non-commissioned officers of the coalition army in front of the battle did not hesitate for half a minute, and desperately turned the direction and fled one by one.
The rumbling sound of iron hooves sounded again, and after resting for a long time, the heavy cavalry of the broken barracks, still very tired, attacked again, this time, their target was directly aimed at the high flying Daxu in the rebels.
Lucher was completely frightened, and was shocked by the violent explosion that he had never seen before.
The violent sound, the sky-high firelight, and the fierce attack almost overloaded his heart.
Under the escort of the Lu family's personal guards, he kept beating the war horses, only thinking about how far away he was from these imperial court soldiers and horses. It was terrible, and after a violent loud bang, most of his former sergeants had already fallen.
While fleeing, he did not forget to order the other soldiers to stop retreating and resist on the spot, he hoped that these soldiers could stop the footsteps of the Liaodong army and let him escape safely. But after fighting all night, I couldn't attack it just now, and my morale had declined.
The heavy cavalry of the Liaodong Army was amazing, a flash of horizontal swords was scorching, and the entire queue was black, only the sound of the impact of swords and the friction of iron armor were heard, and the murderous aura was pressing. The overwhelming hooves of the horses seemed to crush the entire coalition army, and suddenly, the heavily armored knights, whose whole bodies were wrapped in heavy armor, shouted in unison: "Long live the broken army!" Suddenly the sky fell apart!
The hoplites have been killed in the blink of an eye! They were not afraid of death, with their strong explosive speed, the sturdy heavy armor rushed towards Da Xu, the momentum was as fierce as fire, and they cut into the Chinese camp of the coalition army like a bamboo, spun violently, and quickly rushed towards Da Xu, and the formation of the Chinese army of the coalition army suddenly collapsed.
The allied infantry, which had lost the cover of the formation, panicked and fled westward, but was cut down to the ground by the court infantry who arrived behind in large areas, just like the autumn wind sweeping away the leaves, unstoppable.
"Abandon the weapon and don't kill"
"Surrender or die!"
On the battlefield, the officers and soldiers of the imperial court have already begun to shout, and the shouts one by one are like fairy music in the ears of those allied soldiers who are out of the world. This was the best voice they had ever heard in their lives, and one by one the soldiers turned into surprise, and happily quickly threw away all kinds of weapons in their hands, and squatted directly on the ground, gasping violently.
The hoplites made a terrible breakthrough, and the hundreds of thousands of allied troops, not a single soldier or horse, could stop their advance. The heavy cavalry advanced directly and forcefully in the middle, and the light cavalry was divided into two wings, the left and right wings, and gathered at times when the wind on both flanks was blowing, and the ranks were broken one by one. The cavalry of the Liaodong Army was like a storm, under their iron hooves, like a calm ocean being swept up by a whirlwind, the huge coalition army could no longer resist, those dense phalanxes collapsed one after another, the ranks began to be chaotic, and the soldiers fled for their lives in panic. …,
Looking at the thunderous impact of the imperial cavalry, the generals of the World Clan Alliance Army turned pale one by one.
When they were in chaos in Hebei, with the number of soldiers and horses in their hands and the strong dock forts, they could make those peasant rebels across Hebei helpless. The chaotic army of that year was tens of thousands of horses, black and black as ants.
This time they gathered 200,000 people, and although they suffered a big loss last night, they only thought it was because they were raided. In this morning's battle, they all thought they would win the battle. But they didn't think about it, and in only half a day, they had already collapsed.
"King, the former Marshal Zhang has been defeated."
"The king, the king of the rear army has been defeated and retreated."
"King, Marshal Liu of the Right Army has been defeated and retreated."
"Great King, Marshal Zhao of the Left Army has been killed in battle, and his troops have been defeated."
One bad news after another reached Lucher's ears, sending chills through his heart. Hearing that even Zhao Kuang, the strongest in the coalition army, was killed in battle, he couldn't help but shake his body and almost fell off his horse.
Even a family general like Zhao Kuang, who was both brave and strategic, was killed in battle, and what hope was there for the coalition army.
In a trance, there was a sudden commotion in the rear, and he looked back to see that the cavalry with a long spike on the forehead of the war horse had rushed over. They are unstoppable.
Seeing that the cavalry of the imperial court was getting closer and closer, Lu Che looked back at the road ahead, but saw that on the left and right flanks, the two light cavalry of the imperial court had already rounded around and surrounded them.
There were light cavalry in front of him, heavy cavalry from the imperial court approaching, and tens of thousands of imperial infantry troops coming behind.
It's like a dream!
Lu Che took out the long sword at his waist and said to the Lu family's nephew beside him, "I misunderstood everyone, I misunderstood the Lu family, and I was a family sinner." Only ten thousand deaths are not enough to forgive my sins. After I kill myself, take my head and surrender to the court. I hope that the court will be able to open up and leave me a little incense for the Lu family. If the court opens the net, in the future, remember to abide by the law according to the order, and the whole clan must not make my mistakes again! ”
After speaking, without waiting for the clan disciples to dissuade him, a sword like autumn water was already on his neck, and with all his strength, blood sprayed, and Lu Che fell off his horse.
"Head of the house!" The crowd exclaimed.
The destruction of the barracks is coming.
"Quickly cut off the head of the master of the house, ask the court to surrender, quickly, it will be too late again." A Lu disciple saw that the fierce court cavalry had arrived, and hurriedly shouted anxiously.
One of the disciples picked up Lu Che's sword on the ground, and slashed several times before cutting off Lu Che's head, and Lu Che's blood splattered everywhere, spilling blood on the bodies of the Lu clan's disciples.
"We surrendered, surrendered!" A Lu disciple held Lu Che's head high, and shouted loudly with a trembling voice, for fear that the cavalry of the imperial court would not hear it.
Zhang Heyuan had already seen that the coalition army's Daxu had descended, and a coalition general in armor was carrying a human head, and behind him were all kneeling coalition generals. He slowed down slowly, until he was far behind the Lu disciples, and then gradually stopped.
Riding the war horse slowly in front of Lu Che's head, Zhang He glanced at it coldly, and after listening for a while, he already understood everything.
Li Benlei and his foot soldiers had already arrived, and after listening, he said coldly, "This commander accepts your surrender, and now immediately orders that the coalition forces surrender to the imperial court immediately to avoid unprovoked killing, and send someone to Lujiabao to give an order, so that the people in the fort can open the door and surrender." ”
Lu Che's second brother, Lu Duan, the acting head of the Lu family, immediately nodded and ordered the coalition forces to surrender, and sent someone to Lujiabao to give the order to open the door and surrender.
"Abandon your weapons and don't kill!"
"Surrender or die!"
The roar of each sentence sounded on the battlefield, and on the plains of dozens of miles, there were troops who were constantly throwing down their weapons and squatting aside. There were also those who were still fleeing in all directions, but they were already only a small number of people, and for these people, Li Benlei ordered to send light cavalry to pursue them everywhere and kill them on the spot. …,
In the evening, the gate of Lujiabao finally opened, and the centuries-old Lujiabao finally fell for the first time.
As soon as the battle in Fanyang ended, Li Benlei immediately sent a message to Beijing City to report the victory.
Linshuo Palace has just been renamed the Forbidden City.
In the snowy city of Beijing, the imperial court purged those forces in the capital with bad intentions and jumped out to make trouble last time with the power of thunder, and the capital returned to peace.
However, under this apparent calm, there is the worry in the hearts of the people, and everyone is waiting for the news from Hebei, Shandong, Huaibei and other places to come back. Although many people have great confidence in the imperial court and believe that the rebellion of the clan will be put down soon, there are still many people who believe that this rebellion will be chaotic for a long time.
Under this kind of thinking, the newly calm capital began to rush to buy and hoard again. At first, it was a rush to buy grain, but later, everything was rushed, and even gradually many businessmen have been involved in it, and even added fuel to the fire, so that this trend has become more and more intense.
Early in the morning, Chen Kefu had already entered the palace with officials from the six ministries of the three provinces and the four major departments.
In Wenhua Pavilion, Chen Kefu was wearing a robe, and his mood was not very good.
"Recently, the people of the capital have been delayed for a long time because they are worried about the rebellion of the clan, so many people have begun to rush to buy food. This was originally a small matter, and only if our court handled it properly, this matter would be well settled. But by now, this trend has become more and more intense, and almost the people of the whole city are rushing to buy food, even more than just food, they have begun to rush to buy everything, rice, wheat, corn, beans, linen, silk, etc. And I already know that there are already a lot of businessmen who have joined in and even helped behind it. Do you know about this? ”
