Chapter 535: Revenge
As soon as Ashraf's order was given, all the doors and windows along the street of the restaurant were pushed open, and the archers and guardsmen dressed in shining silver armor, armed with wicker shields and large horizontal swords, poured out, shouting slogans and crashing into the Mamluk phalanx. At the same time, the archers on the second and third floors of the restaurant are still shooting arrows like a burst, and they are not afraid of accidentally injuring their own people, which is really bold enough for a master.
"Kill the eyes, go to heaven!"
The commander of the first company of the Archers Guards Battalion, Hai Dawei, roared angrily, flattened the big horizontal knife, pointed straight ahead, slightly avoided the opponent's shield, and then used the wicker round shield to protect the vital point, and slammed into the Mamluk phalanx.
As Chen Dexing's archer guard, Hai Dawei certainly had the best cold weapons of this era, and he was wearing hot-forged steel armor made of medium carbon steel, and the surface had been quenched to become extremely hard. And the three-foot-three-inch steel horizontal knife he held was the most powerful melee weapon of this era. It has a straight blade, a sharp blade, a triangular head designed for assassination, and a blood groove on the body. But the most powerful thing is the material used to make this horizontal knife - the outer layer is hard medium carbon steel, and the inner layer is soft and flexible wrought iron. It's the best combination of hardness and toughness, and it's not at all something that chain mail made of wrought iron can withstand!
And the explosiveness of this wild Jurchen man who is as strong as a cow is extremely amazing, it is said that when hunting in the old forests of Liaodong, he once fought with a bear with his bare hands, and killed a bear by force! It was these fierce Tartars, after obtaining the iron tools provided by the Song people more than a hundred years ago, that they swept away the invincible Khitan Daliao with a devastating force, and then swept south without stopping. The world's most prosperous and magnificent Great Song civilization has been trampled under its feet!
And now, these warriors who slew tigers and bears have been given sharper steel weapons provided by Chen Dexing. It also obtained the Eight Banners, which can give full play to its combat effectiveness, the Shijue system, and also possessed the most advanced training methods and tactics of this era. But now they are just Chen Dexing's sharp blades fighting in all directions. Just like the Cossack warriors of the Russian Tsars in history! Not only brave and good at fighting, but also loyal and reliable.
Because, Chen Dexing provided them not only completely, but also Heavenly Taoism. Including Hai Dawei, almost all the warriors from the wild Jurchens, they firmly believed that Chen Dexing was the descendant of King Ming, a demigod! They are now fighting for God, and even if they die in battle, their souls can ascend to Elysium......
The harsh sound of metal rubbing suddenly sounded in Hai Dawei's ears. The blade has pierced into the human body. Screams rang out in his ears, with occasional cursing in Arabic. At this moment, an incomparably sharp Damascus scimitar suddenly slashed out from the opponent's phalanx, carrying the strong wind, like a devouring beast, revealing its sharpest claws.
The Mamluk warriors' counterattack was razor! And the timing is just right. Hai Dawei's long knife had pierced into the body of one of the Mamluks, and his wicker shield collided with the Mamluk's shield. In addition to the protective steel armor, Hai Dawei has no other means to save his life.
He only had time to turn slightly, and the swift slash slashed at his breastplate. Sharp blades cut through steel armor up to a minute (more than three millimeters) thick. In addition to the screeching noise and brilliant sparks, it was a shallow scratch on the surface of the steel armor.
What the? Ashharaf's eyes almost fell out in shock. This is a Damascus scimitar made of Uzi steel...... And it was a fatal knife slashed by His Excellency Ashharaf, who was famous for his sword skills in Baghdad, with full strength! In the battle for Baghdad in defense of the Caliphate, he once used this scimitar to split the scale armor of a Mongol warrior with the same force! How can you not cut this kind of armor that seems to be an ancient Roman bronze cuirass?
Could it be that this armor is made of Uzi steel!? How much does it cost?
Asharaf was shocked. The right answer has been found in the first place! Hai Dawei's steel armor is worth at least 1,200 yuan, of which 800 yuan comes from the subsidy of the Beiming Military Affairs Division, and the remaining 400 yuan is self-raised. For the sake of these 400 yuan, he sold all the serfs in his family. In the end, he had to rent the Shijue Grange to Han farmers at a low price.
But such an investment is certainly worth it, if Asharaf also has the opportunity to buy such armor. Even if he went bankrupt, he would not hesitate to sell the beautiful Spanish slave girl that Ali had given him......
It's a pity that Asharaf has nowhere to buy this steel armor, and his Spanish slave girl Aurora will soon change masters!
The defeat of the Uzi steel knife in front of the Nanfen steel armor was staged repeatedly. All the sword-wielding Mamluk warriors felt discouraged. Their supposedly invincible sword can't cut through the enemy's armor! And the enemy's long knife is extremely sharp, and it is not at all that chain mail can resist! And there are extremely accurate armor-piercing arrows on the restaurant...... That kind of armor-piercing arrow seems to be made of steel, and it can also pierce the protection of chain mail without difficulty!
How is this battle going to be fought? The opponent is almost invulnerable, and the protection on his side is like paper.
"Disband! Come on! Quickly retreat to Tumen...... "Knowing that he was invincible, Ashharaf did not hesitate to give a loud order, under the blow of the bow guards and the precise blow of the foot bow. The Mamluks were no longer able to maintain their original phalanx, so they could only spread out and flee for their lives.
Alashaf shouted, and he was already running in the direction of Tumen first. In the end, he is a veteran of the battlefield who survived the battle of Baghdad, and he still has the ability to save his life, even if he wears two layers of armor weighing seventy or eighty pounds, he can run on the battlefield.
The rest of the Mamluks on Tumen Street are not fuel-efficient lamps, they are all masters who died under the butcher's knife of the Mongols, and the fierce luck on the battlefield is obvious at a glance. Where did these powerful steelclad soldiers come from? Who are they? When did you enter the city? And how many people?
If you think about it, where do you not know that things are strange? Was this sacred battle in Quanzhou too easy to win? Now it seems that this is a trap, a trap set by Kafil, the purpose of which is to wipe out all the true God believers in the city!
Thinking of this, the Mamluks had no intention of fighting, and they did not care about the sharp arrows shot at their backs, but just ran with their heads covered, and of course did not care about their comrades who were still screaming—it didn't matter if they died, there was a paradise of virgins waiting for them anyway. However, the Mamluks, who can still move, run as fast as they can, and it is clear that they are all decent men and gentlemen who are not good women.
Everyone is running towards the city gate, there are still 4,000 people from Pu Shousheng, as long as they meet them, even if they can't be defeated, there is always a chance to retreat in chaos, right?
The inner entrance of the Tu Gate of the South Gate of Quanzhou has been piled up with barricades. All sorts of furniture that had been moved from somewhere had been piled up and formed a breastwork. Dressed in black, wearing a variety of helmets and hats, and holding bows and arrows, crossbow machines, or swords and spears, Quanzhou Baifan only showed half of his body behind this breastwork. With a smirk, he looked at the city in front of him, the city of Kafir, which was now trembling at the feet of the Jihad warriors! Just wait to repel the thousands of exhausted Han Chinese troops outside the city, this rich city is like a naked girl, let them sack and ravage!
The only pity is that they have no way to take Quanzhou for themselves, because in the north of Liaodi and Yanyun, a new Han regime has risen, and this Han regime also has a strong maritime force. He also believes in cults and is in trouble with the Heavenly Sect at every turn. Even if the Celestial Cultists in Quanzhou pretended to be obedient, it was impossible to get their permission to take possession of Quanzhou......
Just when these Quanzhou Baifan, the Jihad warriors of the true god were cursing the insidious and ferocious nature of the Heavenly Dao Cult in their hearts, a group of people running wildly suddenly appeared on the Tumen Street they were facing. At first, it was far away, small, and I didn't know who it was?
But in the blink of an eye, there was already a sharp-eyed Bai Fan screaming.
"Mamluk!"
"It's Mamluk!"
"Oh my God, it looks like someone is chasing Mamluk ......"
"Silverarmour? That's the Silver Armor? ”
"Chen Thief's Silver Armor Soldier!?"
"How is this possible......"
Pu Shousheng was standing on top of the tall Tumen City Tower at this time, and the whole person was about to go limp, he stood tall, he naturally saw far away, and he had a telescope in his hand. He saw the ambush on Tumen Street just now.
The Mamluk soldiers who were leaning on the Great Wall by him and Pu Shougeng were completely vulnerable in front of these soldiers in steel armor who appeared out of nowhere!
Pu Shousheng was sweating profusely, and his hands holding the binoculars were trembling, "This, what the hell is going on, please?!! ”
A young man who was similar to him stomped his feet beside him: "Reverse Ming!" This is the steel armor of the anti-Ming soldiers!! ”
Pu Shousheng stumbled, almost unable to stand firmly, "Fooled, fooled, let's fall for Chen Dexing, his steel-armored soldiers have long been hiding in Quanzhou City...... It's the eighteen in the South China Sea! It must be them, I heard that they have all entered the Heavenly Dao Sect! ”
"My lord, what can I do about this?" The young man was indeed the son of Pu Shousheng, named Pu Shili, a well-known talent in Quanzhou City, who had been hit once before the accident of the Pu family, but now he was wearing the black robe of the Abbasid Dynasty. In this holy battle, his scimitar had been soaked in the blood of Kafir.
He turned his head sharply and looked in the direction south of Tu Gate in horror, "My lord, we have slaughtered so many Zhao family's sects, if we let Zhao and Yu's Quan Yong enter, we will ......"
Pu Shousheng smiled bitterly, "It's nothing more than revenge...... What else is there to say now? The battle to the death is enough, if it is not low, Quanzhou City is our place of death! (To be continued......)
