Chapter 185: Dead End

The spear formation of hundreds of rebels was not enough to hold back the cavalry attack of the Tiger and Par Army.

However, hundreds of spear heads that emit cold light can bring a lot of casualties to cavalry.

Therefore, Zhao Yun, the commander of the cavalry regiment who rushed to the front, did not blindly crash into the spear formation that could stab himself into a bloody hole with his flesh and blood.

Under the gaze of his subordinates, Zhao Yun skillfully put away his saber and drew out the short-barreled musket for cavalry.

Lighting the fire rope, he pulled the trigger without hesitation on the rebel spear array that was getting closer and closer to him.

"Pop ......" A crisp gunshot sounded on the battlefield, and dozens of paces, the rebel commander who was holding a spear with a weak heart and fear rushed to the hand, and fell directly in response to the sound and turned into a corpse.

After finishing the lead bullets that had already been loaded in the chamber, Zhao Yun quickly put away the musket.

Then, from another rucksack on the horse's back, he pulled out a two-and-a-half-foot-long pitching gun. Under the tremendous inertia of the cavalry charge, he waved his arms and threw them out fiercely.

Because this series of actions developed too fast, when Zhao Yun threw out the throwing gun with a whistling sound, it smashed into the rebel army formation, and directly stabbed the two rebel commanders into a gourd. The cavalry subordinates only reacted.

As a result, the crackling sound of musket shooting, like firecrackers, kept ringing out behind him.

Zhao Yun, who had already put on the saber in his hand, saw with his own eyes that in the dense spear array in front of him, there were constantly long snatchers who were hit by lead bullets and fell to the ground and turned into corpses.

In the blink of an eye, the dense spear array became sparse, and it could even be said that there were loopholes everywhere.

When the gunshots kept rang out. A throwing gun that makes a slight whistling sound. Also began to appear over the battlefield.

Over the top of Zhao Yun's head. After drawing a beautiful arc in the air, he steadily plunged into the rebel spear formation.

A thousand buckshots, a thousand throwing guns. Although it can't reach the bullet bite the flesh, the gun sees blood.

However, it is still no problem to inflict a blow on the hundreds of sought-after people in front of you.

Therefore, when the mighty more than a thousand ironclad cavalry rushed in front of the rebels, they were given high hopes by Zhou Yuhong's spear array. It has become a corpse everywhere.

A handful of rebel commanders were in demand, and under the threat of death at such close range, the last bit of courage in their hearts to fight was gone. Directly dropped his weapon, knelt on the battlefield strewn with corpses, and surrendered to the roaring cavalry of the Tiger and Par Army.

Zhao Yun ignored the rebels who surrendered on their knees.

After swinging the saber in his hand, he directly led his subordinates to evade these surrenders, and the troops split their ways and rushed towards the rebel positions that had fallen into chaos.

At the same time, thousands of soldiers who were fighting fiercely on the frontal battlefield also discovered unusual movements from the rear of the rebels.

Only two thousand rebel attacking troops remained. When you subconsciously stop attacking and look behind you.

On the positions of the Haw Par Army. A sneer had already appeared on Wei Zheng's face.

As for Wang Feng beside him, his face full of expectations has been covered with fanaticism. Staring at a pair of hot eyes, he looked at Wei Zheng, waiting for Wei Zheng's order.

Wei Zheng did not hesitate, and decisively ordered: "The soldiers of the cavalry regiment have arrived...... Commander Wang immediately led the soldiers to launch a counterattack against the rebel attacking force, and cooperated with the cavalry regiment to surround and destroy the rebel army. ”

"Yes, general......" Wang Feng, who had a fanatical face, said loudly.

Then, like a tiger descending from the mountain, he shouted a command to his subordinates who continued to shoot forward.

"Soldiers, the time has come for a counterattack...... Armed with grenades and muskets, follow me out of position and attack the rebels to eliminate them. If you get close, you will up with a grenade, and if you are far away, you will hit me with a musket, and you must not spare a rebel......"

"Kill ......"

More than a thousand musketeers, like a thousand wild horses on the loose, quickly crossed the earthen wall and rushed out of the battlefield already covered in white smoke.

At this time, the figures of the two thousand rebels, who were only more than seventy steps away from the position, finally appeared clearly in everyone's field of vision. At the same time, 2,000 rebels also saw more than 1,000 musketeers.

The enemy launched a counterattack in front, and the enemy attacked his rear behind. If it is an ordinary general, he will definitely lead his subordinates to retreat, reinforce his rear, and avoid his retreat being cut off.

However, the rebel lieutenant general who led the team was a very exception. For he came with an attitude of mortality.

More importantly, seeing the Haw Par Army musketeers launching a counteroffensive, he suddenly saw an opportunity to turn the whole battlefield around.

The Haw Par Musketeers abandoned their positions and launched a counterattack against themselves, and if they did not retreat, they would be mixed up with the Haw Par Musketeers. Not only can you kill a thousand musketeers from close range. What's more, once he and the musketeers are mixed up, the cavalry of the Haw Par Army from the rear will have some scruples and dare not charge at them casually.

Otherwise, they would have killed not only themselves, but also their musketeers.

As a result, the solemn-faced rebel lieutenant quickly made a decision and shouted at his equally panicked subordinates.

"Brothers, behind us are the cavalry of the official army, and now we are retreating, and there is only a dead end. If you want to live, you will continue to attack with me, and you will be in the middle of the battle with the official musketeers. Only in this way can we have a chance to live. ”

"Brothers, keep going with me...... Fight your way out......"

"The rebels do not retreat but advance ......" Faced with this unexpected situation, Wang Feng reacted quickly after only a brief shock.

shouted at his subordinates, who were also filed, "Musketeers, shoot, shoot at the rebels at once, destroy them......"

As soon as the order was given, the sound of bean-bursting gunshots began to sound around Wang Feng.

The musketeers, who were a little farther away and did not hear the order, quickly reacted when they heard the gunshots.

Listen to the pace of your charge, pick up the musket in your hand, aim at the target, and pull the trigger......

Gunshots rang out, and the rebels, who had just mustered up the courage to continue the attack, fell hundreds of corpses in an instant.

As the gunfire continued, more and more of their bodies fell. The short charge road was covered with almost a whole layer of corpses of rebels in various postures, or wounded and sick.

The 2,000 rebels, after losing thousands of men in a short period of time, finally advanced to less than thirty paces away from the Haw Par musketeers. It seems that in the blink of an eye, he can rush into the opponent's musket formation and slash the big knife in his hand into the opponent's neck.

Just when a glimmer of hope gradually appeared on the faces of the remnants of the rebels, another picture full of puzzlement appeared in front of them.

Faced with themselves close at hand, more than 1,000 Haw Par musketeers actually stopped firing and put their muskets on the ground......

Could it be that these Haw Par troops are going to be captured...... Or is there something more powerful they have......

While the rebels pondered the question, the musketeers had already told them the answer.

More than a thousand musketeers, very skillfully pulled out a grenade with a wooden handle from their backpack.

Subsequently, a fire fold was also ignited by them......

After lighting the gunpowder fuse sticking out of the wooden handle of the grenade, he waved his arm and threw the grenade that was emitting white smoke in his hand.

More than a thousand grenades, with the sound of wind and whistling, quickly smashed into the position of the rebels after drawing arcs in the air.

Just when the faces of thousands of rebels were still full of incomprehension, more than a thousand grenades had landed one after another. And under the gaze of a pair of eyes full of shock and despair, there was a sudden explosion......

Dense explosions rang out, and fireballs, like mushrooms after a rain, followed by the middle of the rebels.

When the last explosion ended, the entire battlefield seemed to be frozen on the spot, and it instantly became silent.

The rebels on attack were directly stunned by this never-before-seen weapon. The Haw Par Musketeers, on the other hand, wanted to see how much more than a thousand grenades could be achieved by exploding at the same time......

A gust of wind blew, and the smoke that shrouded the explosion area was quickly diluted.

At this time, the tragic scene in the blast area, like hell, unfolded in front of everyone on both sides of the enemy.

In less than ten seconds of explosion, at least five hundred rebels were directly scared to death on the spot by a thousand grenades.

What's more, among the 500 rebels who were scared to death, less than 200 managed to leave a complete corpse.

Because the grenades thrown by the Haw Par Army were so dense that almost every two grenades killed one rebel. This led to many rebels who were scared to death, and were directly torn to pieces by the air waves and grenade fragments......

Faced with a tragic scene that they had never seen before, the glimmer of hope that had just risen on the faces of the rebels was gone, and in a short time, they were covered with fear and despair from the heart. Even the battle-hardened rebels are no exception.

Looking at the ordinary hell-like battlefield in front of him, Nan Nan directly said to himself: "The Tiger and Leopard Army are not people, they are devils...... Such a powerful weapon of murder, only the devil can create it......"

Then, with a face full of fear and fear, he ordered: "Retreat, retreat immediately...... We'd rather be killed by the Haw Par Army cavalry than be blown to pieces by this devil's weapon......"

Hundreds of rebels, like frightened rabbits, did not look back, and fled to the rear with fear on their faces.

Seeing this, a sneer full of confidence quickly appeared on Wang Feng's face. He ordered to his subordinates who were also looking at each other: "Soldiers, the rebels can't hold on and continue to attack with me, destroy them......"

"Kill..."A thousand musketeers, wielding their muskets, followed closely behind Wang Feng, chasing after the rebels. As you pursue, reload your musket and shoot forward, killing the fleeing rebels.

At this moment, the battle that took place directly behind the rebels also showed a one-sided situation. More than a thousand cavalry, each forward round of attacks, can set off a rain of blood on the rebel positions.

In this way, under the rotation of more than 1,000 cavalry, the remnants of the rebel army gradually gathered around the main general Zhou Yuhong and began to put up a final resistance. (To be continued......)
