Chapter 332: Dead End

"The flowering bomb is the flowering bomb, the flowering bomb of the Han people...... Everyone, run for your life! A scream of terror quickly sounded among the Mongols.

The marching procession, which was still orderly just now, became chaotic in an instant as if it was bombing the camp......

However, no matter how fast the Mongols reacted, they could not fly faster than the shells.

Besides, these Mongols did not know the specific way to dodge the flower bullets, and all their efforts were in vain.

Therefore, the Mongols crowded on the mountain road had just reacted, and more than thirty flowering bombs were already roaring over their heads.

Because of the use of catapults, more than thirty flowering shells did not have much accuracy.

Less than ten of them exploded among the Mongols who landed near or far on the mountain road

However, it was these shells that killed and injured almost hundreds of Mongols crowded on the mountain road.

Although the explosions that occurred on the mountain road stopped, the screams of the wounded Mongols did not stop for the slightest. The second round of flowering bombs roaring towards them had returned to them.

The shell landed and exploded, and hundreds of Mongolians, with despair before death, were blown to the ground, and their lives were uncertain.

In the face of this kind of attack, there is no slightest counterattack and countermeasure. The Mongols, who were in a state of confusion, could not withstand even five rounds of artillery fire, and fled from the shelled area with panic and despair, screaming.

When the remaining Mongols left hundreds of corpses behind and escaped from the shelled area. A rumor quickly spread among the panicked Mongols.

"The mountain road in front of me has been blocked by the heavy troops of the Tiger and Leopard Army, otherwise. Hold off your own tiger and leopard army. It is impossible to have such a large number of artillery. Shoot so many powerful flowering bullets at yourself at once. ”

"Under heavy interception by the Haw Par Army. Plus so many artillery and flowering shell attacks. Even if all of them were killed, they would not be able to break through the barrier of the Tiger and Leopard Army. ”

"If you want to escape from here alive and return to Mongolia alive, you can only choose the direction of the breakthrough again......"

"Be sure to find Belle Dorgon, and withdraw from the battlefield with the resourceful Dolgon, escaping from this grave where you could bury yourself at any time......"

In the face of rumors, in front of the bloody battlefield in front of you, it is like hell. The Mongols were demoralized and full of fear. Directly lost the courage to attack the Haw Par Army.

Directly under the orders of generals at all levels, it was like a gust of wind, quickly disappearing in front of the tiger and leopard army.

Of the more than 1,800 Mongols, less than 1,400 of them succeeded in evacuating from the pass.

When these Mongols rushed to the official road with a look of trepidation, wanting to retreat with Bel Ye Dolgon. They happened to bump into the Mongols who had retreated from another mountain pass.

Under the same number of mortars and catapults, the losses of this group of Mongols were no less than theirs.

As a result, two Mongols suffered heavy losses and had lingering fears. had to join forces in one place, with less than three thousand cavalry. Chase in the direction of Dolgon's retreat.

What these Mongols didn't expect was that Dolgon, who rushed to the front, was also blocked by the Tiger and Par Army on the official road.

Desperate to withdraw from the battlefield and avoid being besieged by the Hawpanzers. On the way to retreat, no scouts were sent.

A thousand iron horsemen with white flags, a thousand musketeers, hundreds of Mongols. All of them rode on war horses and galloped along the official road.

In order to preserve his strength and escape the siege of the Haw Par Army, Dolgon is destined to pay a very heavy price for his carelessness.

Dolgon, who was galloping all the way, didn't notice that on the mountain beam on the side of the official road, a pair of murderous eyes were staring at them motionlessly.

Because of the unique plateau terrain of Shaanxi, hundreds of tiger and leopard army mountain beams are hidden, although there is a height difference of dozens of steps from the official road. However, the distance in a straight line is less than ten steps. The mountain beam along the line of the official road is like a cliff along the official road, which can be called straight up and down.

The cavalry, who were marching rapidly on the official road, could not rush up even if they tried to attack the Tiger and Par Army on the mountain beam.

It was precisely because of this favorable terrain that the bold He Guozhong dared to completely disperse the limited forces in his hands. Here, the vanguard of Dolgon was taken by surprise and gave Dolgon a head drink......

Hundreds of musketeers, relying on the mountain beams, lined up on the official road to form a huge ambush circle with long hairs and a mile.

Not only that, but in each musketeer's hand, he held a flowering bullet with an exposed arquebus fuse.

In He Guozhong's words, such a good ambush battlefield and such a close attack distance can be a woman who can easily throw the flowering bullet onto the official road.

More than 400 flowering bombs, separated by two steps from each other, exploded on the official road in a row.

He Guozhong was confident that even if he encountered the Houjin heavy armored cavalry, he could inflict a devastating blow on Dolgon in a short period of time. What's more, the people who rushed into their ambush circle were only a few hundred light horsemen wearing leather wallets.

Therefore, He Guozhong was full of confidence in the ambush circle he had carefully arranged.

Seeing more and more Mongols rushing into the ambush circle on the official road, He Guozhong was even happier than eating honey.

At this time, a herald hurriedly came over and whispered, "My lord, the team at the front of the ambush has lit a signal smoke. The Mongols who rushed into the ambush circle are about to rush out, and we should not attack immediately. ”

At this time, He Guozhong quickly restrained the smile on his face. Facing the herald in front of him, he ordered with a stern face.

"Immediately send a signal to the brothers to destroy the Mongols under our feet."

On the ambush battlefield that stretches for a mile, it is necessary to convey the attack order to the ears of every soldier. In this era when there is no radio, He Guozhong's best choice is a signal flare made of fireworks.

Therefore, as soon as He Guozhong's general order blurted out, a short-barreled musket used to fire a signal path was taken out by the herald.

Aim at the sky and pull the trigger of the flare gun without hesitation.

The shrill roar of the flare flying into the sky was muffled by the roar of the horses galloping on the official road. However, the flames produced by the explosion of the signal flare in the air were clearly reflected in the eyes of all the soldiers participating in the battle.

"Brothers, the lord has given the order, immediately throw flower bombs at the Mongols on the official road......"

"Immediately throw a flowering bomb and use it to scare the Mongols to death......"

All sorts of orders from these platoon commanders, platoon commanders...... After shouting out of the mouth.

One by one, the flowering bullets that were ignited by the fuse were quickly thrown by the soldiers of the Haw Par Army to the official road under their feet.

Compared with mortars with a range of several hundred paces, soldiers who only need to throw shells a dozen paces away obviously have better accuracy.

More than 400 flowering bombs fell from the sky, more than eighty percent of the number, and landed on the official road very accurately.

As the deafening explosion sounded on the official road, the gunpowder smoke and fireballs raised by the explosion quickly covered the Mongolian cavalry on the official road.

As for their final result, there is only one: that is, in the steel storm composed of flowering bullet fragments, they were bloodily swept to the ground and turned into corpses......

In the face of the sudden explosion, I saw that the clansmen rushing in front of me were suddenly shrouded in gunsmoke and disappeared without a trace.

The cavalry that followed closely behind, under the effect of conditioned reflex, directly tightened the reins of the war horse to prevent the cavalry under the crotch from rushing into the official road full of murderous opportunities in front of him. Then, quickly draw the weapon hanging on the horse's back and prepare for battle.

As for Dolgon, who retreated with the musketeers, he heard an explosion from the front. However, he was still about a mile away from the ambush circle, and he didn't know what was going on in front of him.

When he hurried to the battlefield surrounded by his personal guards, collided with the heralds who were about to report to him, and knew what was going on in front of him, he began to issue a series of orders to his subordinates.

The Haw Par Army, having finished throwing the bullets, had already hastily withdrawn from the battlefield, leaving Dolgon with corpses all over the official road.

With an anxious face, Dorgon hurried to the edge of the ambush circle. The smoke of gunpowder shrouded in the official road has completely dissipated. What followed was a strong smell of blood.

At this moment, what fell on Dolgon's vision was not only the corpse, but also the corpse.

At a glance, there were at least four hundred people.

You must know that the cavalry that fell on the official road in front of you was not an inferior Mongol, but a Houjin cavalry that was already less and less inlaid with white flags and was regarded as a treasure by Dolgon.

What's more, after losing so many Houjin cavalry at one time, he didn't even see the shadow of the enemy.

However, Dolgon knew that in the current land of Shaanxi, the only one who could use firearms to inflict such a large damage on himself in a short period of time was the old rival Haw Par Army.

Therefore, in the face of the miserable official road in front of him, Dolgon's face directly showed a look full of fear.

At the same time, he was also thinking in his heart: why is there a Haw Par Army here, and what is the purpose of the Haw Par Army here?

"It's not good, could it be that the reinforcements that the Tiger and Par Army are preparing to surround themselves have arrived, and they plan to block themselves outside Dingbian City and destroy themselves......" Dolgon, who couldn't help but be shocked in his heart, subconsciously let out an exclamation.

At this time, the deputy general who had been following behind him spoke: "Lord Belle, excluding the losses just now, we have less than two thousand people left. If the Haw Par Army really stands in the way, then we have no choice but to retreat from other directions. ”

The more he thought about it, the more he affirmed his inference, and directly recognized the lieutenant general: "You are right, we no longer have the capital to fight the Tiger and Par Army. It is necessary to preserve the strength and withdraw from the battlefield as much as possible. ”

After saying that, Dolgon, who had a stern face, opened his mouth and ordered: "The rear team will change to the front team, and immediately retreat backwards." We retreated from the mountain road northeast of Dingbian County, and we must not fall into the encirclement of the Tiger and Leopard Army. ”

"The slave is ......," the lieutenant replied loudly at the moment of life and death. (To be continued......)
