Chapter Ninety-Three: Submission
Murong Hao still did not realize the seriousness of the problem, and still ordered the Beifu army to advance in a standard phalanx.
The howitzer array only fought one round, and it had already wiped out the strength of a phalanx of the Beifu Army, and the injuries were even more innumerable.
But Jiang Feng didn't do that......
On the one hand, because grenades are very expensive, the more you buy, the higher the price will rise, so you can only save a little bit and wait for the next cycle to return to zero before buying again.
On the other hand, it is because these more than 100,000 Beifu troops have been treated by Jiang Feng as a bag, and they are really distressed to use their own grenades to beat their own soldiers, as long as they can deter Murong Hao, there is no need to kill them all.
It's just that Murong Hao thinks strangely, and in the blink of an eye, there is no phalanx, and the gap between the equipment of the two armies is really in front of him, and he is like he didn't see it, and he is stunned and says that this is an evil art.
"Aren't you afraid of grenades? It seems that Murong Hao's heart is very relaxed, so let me completely defeat him and pierce the spirit from the flesh. ”
As soon as Jiang Feng's words were finished, Long Yun immediately understood, and used the banner to convey the attack order to the Dragon Qiang arrow array at the bottom.
After several expansions, the Yanzhou New Army had a total of 12,000 Longqiang crossbowmen, plus 28 howitzers, and these long-range resources were under Long Yun's control.
In ancient times, it was necessary to show the talisman to fight a war, and to recognize the talisman or not, in order to facilitate the transfer, Jiang Feng also followed this old rule, using the talisman as a kind of voucher for the transfer of troops.
In the Tiger Army, in addition to the talisman token, the Qinghong Sword can also have the same effect.
These are unique things, which are not easy to imitate, and it is extremely difficult to reproduce them.
"Attack!"
The ultra-long-distance Longqiang arrow array needs two people to cooperate at the same time, whether it is a bow or an arrow, it is very heavy, usually one person holds a fierce bow, one person carries an arrow basket, one person pulls the bow with his feet in wartime, and the other person is responsible for loading the wind arrow on the string.
"Shoot!"
Dense wind arrows, like drizzle, fell from the sky and evenly sprinkled in the phalanx of the Beifu army, completely disrupting its regular formation.
The Beifu Army never thought that Yanzhou's arrows could shoot through Erlidi?
By the time they realized the danger, there was no way to avoid it, the vast plains, there was no cover, even if there were, there was no use for eggs, and in the face of the super penetration of wind arrows, even the double-layer armor of the Xiao Cavalry Battalion was like tissue paper, vulnerable.
The tens of thousands of troops suddenly made a mess and scattered backwards, and Murong Hao's personal guards also worked hard to stabilize the order.
The Beifu army stubbornly charged the Yanzhou army again, but this time there was no longer a regular phalanx, but rushed forward in a swarm, with messy steps, the morale of the army was disheartened, and the original fighting spirit had long been lost.
When the Beifu army was only five hundred meters away from the military formation, the Jiuli clan, who was in charge of the guard, suddenly put away the shield in his hand, leaving a wide enough space for the brothers behind him to push out the Zhuge Repeater.
Each Zhuge repeater is equipped with five enhanced armor-piercing arrows at the same time, and a single feather arrow is thicker than the standard bronze spear.
The distance of 500 meters is enough to exert the strongest power of the armor-piercing arrow.
Sou!
The armor-piercing arrow broke off the string and shot straight into the enemy formation, charging at the front line of the Beifu army, and the body was firmly stuck in place, until death, there was no chance to fall.
"This ......"
Seeing this, the Beifu army was so frightened that they were urinating, the recruits had never seen such a bloody scene, they threw away their armor and ran away, even if Murong Hao's personal guards took their own lives, they couldn't stop the defeated army.
"Let's go in and harvest!" Jiang Feng picked up a cup of tea and only took half a sip.
The Jiuli shield soldiers quickly withdrew to both ends, making way for the army to clear the field, the left flank charged chariots, the right flank roped light cavalry, showing a trapping trend, the Chinese army was led by Jiang Feng himself, and advanced to the Beifu army camp.
The Three-Way Army formed an iron wall and cornered the scattered Beifu army, intending to circle and kill.
"Murong Hao, willing to surrender to the Yanzhou army. Murong Hao rode alone, holding high the white flag, with the handsome seal and tiger talisman hanging on the flagpole, and ran to the Yanzhou military formation to surrender to Jiang Feng.
If it had been too late, tens of thousands of troops would have been wiped out.
"Chu He, the commander of the Yanzhou Tiger Army, has come to accept your surrender. ”
Chu He rode out alone, took the tiger talisman and the handsome seal, and sent someone to give it to Jiang Feng on the high platform.
The handsome seal is just a status symbol given by the empire, and it has no practical use, Jiang Feng returned it to Murong Hao, but he left the tiger talisman, which is a certificate for the deployment of troops, and the priority of the tiger talisman is higher than that of the commander.
With it, you can dispatch the Beifu army at will, Zuo Si is beside Murong Hao, and he doesn't dare to act rashly.
"Murong Hao, I can let you go back to the fiefdom, but you must get me two thousand warships within half a year. ”
"Two thousand? Are you kidding me? ”
Murong Hao's face was solemn, his fiefdom was quite poor, and it was no different from the boundary of Yanzhou, two thousand warships, which was not a small number.
"Why? You don't want to? You still can't do it, I don't want to raise waste. Jiang Feng pulled out the Qinghong Sword and picked his nails.
"Rest assured, my lord, in half a year, I promise to send you two thousand brand new warships. ”
Although there was resentment, Murong Hao dared to be angry and did not dare to speak, as long as he could return to the fiefdom alive, it would be worth paying a big price.
After the end of the war, Jiang Feng let Murong Hao return to his fiefdom and let him continue to be a vassal to Yanzhou, but tens of thousands of troops under his command were included in the Yanzhou New Army and independently organized, with Xu Chu serving as the new commander of the Beifu Army.
The whole army marched out, left Qinling Town, and returned to Yongguan City.
There is a Lanjiang River between Fengdu, and the suspension bridge on it has long been demolished by Qin Lan, if you want to cross the river, you have to build a ship, with the current situation, the war between the two sides cannot be fought within half a year.
Jiang Feng simply stockpiled food, trained the new army, and prepared for the decisive battle of the siege.
This battle played the prestige of the Yanzhou Tiger Army, and north of the Lanjiang River, the princes from all walks of life followed Murong Hao and surrendered to Jiang Feng, so as to protect their fiefs and titles.
Qin Lan and Murong Hao were defeated, and those little minions and shrimp who were stationed on the frontier, hundreds of thousands of soldiers, all chose to surrender without a fight and surrender to the Yanzhou army.
This made Jiang Feng's power double out of thin air, in addition to the 150,000 Yanzhou army, the Beifu army, the princes' forces and other surrendered troops, adding up to more than 200,000.
And the court of the Fengdu royal family has long been chaotic into a pot of porridge, Qin Lan died in battle, Murong Hao surrendered, after several bloody battles, the Yanzhou rebels from the initial 30,000 miscellaneous soldiers, to now, in just half a year, there are 300,000 elites, enough to compete with the empire.
The two armies divided the river, and north of the Lanjiang River was the territory of Yanzhou, and one-third of the fiefdom was already owned by the rebels.
