The officers and soldiers who saw this scene were numb at the same time, they had never seen so many artillery, densely covered with the entire hills, almost as many as a thousand!

The cavalry who rushed ahead saw more clearly that the style of those cannons was short and concise that they had never seen before!

Different from the huge artillery that the official army can only use to defend and siege the city, these small cannons are no more than three feet at the end of the head, with several iron hoops around them, and the head of the cannon is erected by two iron claws, and there are iron stumbling at the end of the cannon, and the cannon body is firmly grasped on the ground, looking like a fierce tiger that chooses people and devours them, majestic!

Each cannon is surrounded by three gunners, who skillfully fill the shells, plug in the leads, light the torches, and in a few breaths they are ready to shoot! I don't know how many times I've practiced it!

In an instant, all the officers and soldiers had an ominous premonition, and Zhu Zhanji stood up all of a sudden! He felt as if he had made a fatal mistake - Wang Xian's Chinese army was not a soft persimmon at all, but a killer weapon that would kill people!

"Your Highness, rest assured, artillery against cavalry has no great effect!" The nobles hurriedly comforted Zhu Zhanji, and they were also comforting themselves: "Although it looks scary, it can't kill or injure a few people!" ”

How can they still say that Zhu Zhanji can not know that the solid shells of the cavalry in a scattered formation will not cause much damage! But since Wang Xian dares to arrange it like this, there must be his reasons!

But at this time, it was too late to say anything, and the cavalry of the official army had already rushed to within a mile of the enemy, so they could only continue to rush forward!

"Put!" Long Wuye's hair was all open, and he used all his strength to shout. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

The gunners lit the fuse of the cannon with a brush, and the fuse burned rapidly with sparks, and the rumbling cannon sound shook the sky!

The power of the 10,000 cannons was so terrifying that even Wang Xianjun's soldiers were so shocked that they couldn't hear anything. The war horse was also so frightened that it jumped up and down, almost losing control!

But everyone didn't care about their ears, and looked at the officers and cavalry facing the artillery in amazement......

I saw that only half of the more than 10,000 cavalry that rushed into the range of the cannon were left......

No one could forget the scene in front of them, the ground was densely covered with soldiers and horses, the wounded horses and soldiers were screaming and struggling on the ground, their bodies were covered with bloody bullet holes, and everyone who watched was dying!

The surviving 5,000 centaurs were also wounded! Although they were terrified, they had no way to advance or retreat, and they did not dare to stop in place, so they could only whip their horses with their might, trying to rush through this death area and kill under the hills! That's their only way out......

At this moment, the only group of people who were not shocked were the gunners on the hills, who raced against time to clear the chambers, refill the ammunition, and insert new fuses into the cannons.

But the speed of the cavalry of the official army was too fast, and it had already rushed to a distance of 100 zhang below the mountain, and the loading was not yet complete!

"Rush!" Zhang Xuan's eyes were also bloody, urging the follow-up cavalry to continue to press, and he must not let the artillery of the official army be able to act like no more!

Before Zhang Xuan's shout fell, the terrifying cannon rumbled again, and Wang Xianjun's artillery actually fired a salvo again!

The 5,000 cavalry who survived the first shelling were wiped out on the battlefield!

They did not bat an eye, because they clearly saw that the enemy gunners had not yet finished preparing for firing!

Zhu Zhanji, who was in the distance, knew in his heart that when he fired the cannon for the first time, only half of Wang Xian's thousand cannons must have been fired, and the other half was fired at an interval of more than ten breaths.

This is a segmented shooting method that the Ming army is all too familiar with, but it was used by Wang Xian on artillery!

He could also see clearly that in the breeches of those cannons, the shots were not solid shells at all, but hundreds or thousands of scattered shells!

"Rush! Don't stop! Zhang Xuan was already crazy, he desperately urged the war horse and charged directly towards the enemy! It was so easy for him to get this opportunity to lead the cavalry to attack and trample Wang Xian into mud from the crown prince! How can you be defeated so easily?!

Under the leadership of Zhang Xuan, the official cavalry launched an even more crazy attack on Wang Xianjun!

Unlike those ragtag armies, they are proud guards! The Imperial Guard under the direct command of the Emperor!

The crown prince is behind them, they are behind them in the capital, and they will never be allowed to bow to the enemy with a sense of mission soaked in blood and bones!

They rushed forward another thirty zhang, and Wang Xianjun's cannon roared for the third time, and thousands of cavalry disappeared......

But the cavalry is desperate, they only have the approaching enemy army in their eyes! The more than 1,000 cavalry at the front, under the leadership of Zhang Xuan, finally rushed to within 30 zhang of Wang Xianjun's army, and they could kill into the enemy army and avenge the dead robe!

However, at this time, a dense and crisp gunshot rang out! Wang Xian's 10,000-foot army arranged at the foot of the hillside fired at the cavalry that rushed to the front!

The 10,000 infantry troops, all armed with muskets, lined up in six columns against the hillside, the same half loaded and half fired, although the power was far inferior to the artillery, but it was better than the accuracy!

More than 1,000 cavalrymen screamed and fell off their horses, and in the blink of an eye, only a few horsemen were left, and Zhang Xuan's men and horses were all shot several times, covered in blood, and still screamed and charged forward.

There was another burst of gunfire, and Wang Xianjun's shooters made up for the remaining enemy soldiers, and there was no one in front of the battle. Zhang Xuan rushed to a distance of only one zhang from Wang Xianjun's archer, and the war horse finally couldn't support it, and fell to the ground with a bang, throwing him to the ground!

Zhang Xuan spurted blood from his mouth and nose, and with the last of his strength, he looked up at the person on the hillside, and finally died of exhaustion......

While Zhang Wei was killed, the follow-up cavalry was still charging, but no matter how desperately they tried, they couldn't break through the forbidden area of life formed by the interweaving of guns and cannons. At a distance of only a hundred feet, the war horse charged for only a few breaths, and all the cavalry who rushed here were all ruthlessly wiped out!

All this is a long time, but in fact, in just a hundred breaths, half of the official cavalry died in front of Wang Xian's army. On the battlefield half a mile square, the corpses of men and horses were piled up on top of each other, and the flowing blood had formed small rivers and ditches......

The remaining officers and cavalry finally stopped, and their courage was finally lost in the terrible roar of guns. This is not at all a war as they understand it, this is a one-sided slaughter!

Even if they still have the courage to charge, the mountain of corpses is enough to make it difficult for the war horse to move an inch and become a living target for the enemy!

Wang Xian immediately ordered someone to blow the horn, and the Shandong cavalry on both wings were stunned for a moment before they recovered from the boundless shock!

That's their order to attack!

Deng Xiaoxian and Yang Rong hurriedly put away their mixed emotions and urged their subordinates to outflank the official cavalry!

The official cavalry was already frightened, and barely raised their blades to resist, but the attack was weak and weak, and it was not the opponent of the Shandong cavalry at all!

As soon as they fought, they almost collapsed at the touch of a button. They turned their horses' heads and fled backwards frantically......

This escape did not matter, and immediately caused a chain reaction, and the officers and infantry who were also stupid also turned around and ran away.

Seeing the rout coming overwhelmingly, the infantry in the rear also fled. Even Zhu Zhanji's Chinese army, under the impact of the defeated army, had to retreat in embarrassment. His Royal Highness the Prince, who was helped to the horse by the guards, refused to turn the horse's head alive or dead, he couldn't believe it at all, he couldn't accept it at all, and he was defeated like this......

It was so fast that he didn't have time to react, and he didn't even give a contingency order, so the army was defeated!

"Your Highness, let's go, otherwise it's too late!" Chen Wu pulled Zhu Zhanji's reins and urged anxiously.

Because of too much emphasis on infantry and cavalry coordination, Zhu Zhanji's Chinese army also followed too far forward, and it was only three miles away from Wang Xian's army. Seeing that Wang Xian's 20,000 cavalry had already followed the rout, they were about to kill in front of his Chinese army!

"I'm not leaving!" How could Zhu Zhanji accept such a defeat, and roared like a mad tiger: "Why did those damn infantry run away? They can obviously stop Wang Xian's cavalry! ”

Zhu Zhanji is right, if the officers and infantry maintain their courage, at least 20,000 cavalry can block Wang Xian, it will be a full 120,000 people!

But war is never a simple arithmetic problem, but an extremely complex equation, in which the psychological factor is again the biggest variable! Once the psychological breakdown, how many soldiers and horses are all equal to zero!

Wang Xian's rumbling guns completely crushed the psychology of the officers and soldiers. They can't do anything but flee, and once the rout begins, it will spread rapidly throughout the army like it is now, and no one can stop it!

"Your Highness is not in this battle, stay in the green mountains and don't be afraid of no firewood!" Chen Wu pulled Zhu Zhanji hard, wanting to pull His Royal Highness the stunned Prince back to reality.

Zhu Zhanji turned back in despair, but the two of them were shocked to find that with this delay, Wang Xianjun's cavalry had been like two sharp cones, deeply inserted into their own phalanx!

The cavalry guarding the Chinese army had no intention of fighting, and fled on horseback, leaving thousands of infantry who did not run away, crowded around His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and a group of guards, so that they could not run out on horseback......

Wang Xian's cavalry penetrated Zhu Zhanji's Chinese army without hindrance, and then completed the outflanking......

Obviously, Zhu Zhanji is their first target!

Seeing that they were surrounded by enemy troops, the officers and infantry naturally desperately broke through, but Wang Xian's cavalry gathered more and more, brandishing sabers and frantically slashing the infantry in the encirclement.

The encirclement became tighter and tighter, and the officers and infantry became fewer and fewer. In the end, only Zhu Zhanji, Chen Wu and dozens of guards remained, and they were surrounded by Wang Xian's cavalry inside and outside.

The guards were unwilling to give up like this, and they wanted to fight their way out and protect His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to escape! However, no matter how high their martial arts were, they could not compete with the heavily formed cavalry, and they were soon slaughtered.

Zhu Zhanji looked at the Wang Xian cavalry around him in despair, and pulled out his sword and was about to kill himself! But the sword was blown away by a cold light......

He smiled wryly and watched as the cavalry parted a passage.

Wang Xian appeared in front of Zhu Zhanji.

Xianyun followed behind Wang Xian, and that cold light was obviously his masterpiece.

Zhu Zhanji only had Wang Xian in his eyes, he lowered his hands, and looked at his former best friend, but now he had become an enemy who completely defeated him, and he was speechless for a while.

Wang Xian also looked at Zhu Zhanji fixedly, and also said nothing. (To be continued.) )
