Chapter Table of Contents Chapter 51 Cowardice

Zhao Yong looked at the enemy army in the valley, and soon found an abnormality, the people walking in front were all with shiny heads, obviously the clothing of the Khitans, and the people behind had a small pigtail with the thickness of a rat's tail on the back of their heads, no need to ask that it was the characteristics of the Jurchens, it seemed that this was an army with the Khitan army as the main force.

"Order, order all commanders to move to the top of the mountain, quickly enter the position after hearing the explosion, no longer have to wait for orders, and shoot with the heaviest fire!" Most of the enemy troops entered the valley, and the first was about to get out of the ambush circle, and Zhao Yong gave the battle order.

The battle began with a series of thunderous explosions, in order not to disturb the enemy, Zhao Yong did not preset the rolling wood stone on the cliff side in advance, but ordered the engineer team to arrange many blasting points on the cliff along the valley road after the enemy scout, this thing is not inferior to the rolling wood stone. The huge force of the explosion caused the mountain cliff to collapse, and the falling stones carried the earth and gravel with a terrifying rumbling sound roared down, separating the marching brigade in the valley into several sections, stirring up dust and smoke, and it was difficult to see each other, and the Jin army near the blasting point was the most unlucky, and was directly buried alive.

The unprepared Jin army faced the sudden disaster, at a loss for a while, the war horse under the crotch was frightened, scurrying around, the stone rain falling from the sky was smashed down with a split head and a face, causing greater chaos, people and horses trampling each other, countless dead and wounded, screams, horse neighing resounded through the valley The dust just fell, and the wounded had no time to be treated, and the gray-faced Jin Jun suddenly found that various flags were suddenly erected on the cliff where there was no one just now, flashing countless figures.

"There are ambush soldiers" The sharp-eyed Jin army soldier shouted loudly, like a companion warning, but his voice was quickly drowned out in the dense rain of bullets, and the Jin army at this time also understood that what he encountered was not a natural disaster but a man-made disaster.

The 'volunteers' who occupied the advantageous position took up their positions and immediately started fighting, giving full play to the power of the guns in their hands, which was even easier than shooting targets, and the crowd huddled together could ensure that the guns did not miss, and these were linked to their benefits. Each head of the soldiers of the Jin Army is marked with a price, killing a Du Shuai is a thousand guan, Meng'an is five hundred guan, and Mou Ke is fifty guan, and the cheapest auxiliary soldier is also worth five hundred Wen, as for how to distribute it, of course, they also have a set of plans, if there are more than three people who can prove or definite evidence that someone killed them, the bonus will belong to him. Those who are killed by indiscriminate gunfire without proof are counted as their teams or battalions. Everyone shares equally, anyway, the purpose of this plan is that everyone can't have infighting because of the bonus, of course, it must be a capital crime to kill the good and take the merit.

Due to the defeat of the Liao army in World War I, the Jin army developed an arrogant problem. When they were hit hard, they were reluctant to admit that their army could be defeated, even if they had reached the point of being cornered, so after an initial panic, they were re-stabilized under the command of the officers. Using rattans, rocks, and horses as a cover, they did their best to carry out the frantic resistance of the dying, and by this time they had already lost one of the three.

Chen Cong was ordered to lead the four machine gun crews of the machine gun team to assist the Yidu Dragoons in the task of blocking the mouth and preventing the attacked enemy troops from retreating after encountering a blow. The landslide caused by the blasting just now piled up a flood slope on the valley road, cutting the rear army of the Jin army into two sections. According to the original expectation, the enemy should have found that the enemy had been prepared and would immediately retreat, but this gang of people did the opposite, attacking them, trying to capture their position.

"Dutou, what are they trying to do?" The Jin army was full of cavalry. Dismounted to fight, he was dressed in heavy armor, his movement was inconvenient, several attacks were repulsed, and the stream under his feet was dyed red, and this time another group of people came up. The organized archers shot a rain of arrows at the cliff, although it was difficult to reach the top of the cliff. A group of Jin soldiers in iron armor rushed out with large shields and climbed up the slope one foot deep and one foot shallow, but their actions were really strange. So much so that the machine gunners stopped firing and asked their leaders in amazement.

"This looks like dialing the carving, right?" Chen Cong took a closer look. Those Jin Jun were holding heavy shields in one hand and waving the long knives in their hands with the other, which looked evil enough, he scratched his scalp and said uncertainly.

"Oh, yes! They all have a point, they are using our bullets as arrows! Everyone laughed, the rate of fire of the musket is many times faster than that of the bow and arrow, and if you want to use a knife to knock out the bullet, it is better to fight for character, play a game of guarding, block the knife in the vital place, maybe you can wait for the bullet to hit itself.

No matter how hard the Jin army tried, no one could rush up the dirt slope alive under the fire of machine guns, but the pile of dead bodies pillowing on each other was almost as high as the dirt slope, but they still forgot to die and rushed up in batches, which couldn't help but make those veterans who had participated in the Western Expedition sigh that the fighting spirit and bravery of the Jin army were far superior to the Xia army, and if they faced each other in hand-to-hand combat, they were really not necessarily opponents.

The sound of the horn suddenly remembered in the valley of 'Dudu Dudu', and the Jin army, which had been cut off everywhere, suddenly stopped attacking, and quickly assembled and retreated to the way they came, but more than half of them could not stand up, and the firepower of the 'Volunteer Army' suddenly intensified, and these assembled Jin troops became the best target, and the fierce fire dispersed the assembled enemy again. An orderly retreat finally turned into a rout, and they rode their horses or spread their legs and left the wounded in their way, but some were constantly knocked down by the pursuing bullets, and it was no longer called a battle, but a slaughter of a group of routs, and it was less than an hour before the battle began

"Platoon shooting!" Peng Jun, the head of the three battalions, suddenly found that there was a group of about five or six hundred people in the chaotic army, these people were all Jurchens, all of them were burly, the iron armor on their bodies was bright, most of them were on horseback, the formation was close, completely ignoring the rout in front of them, and stepped out of the road, one of them was holding a big flag, although he couldn't see what kind of flag it was, but according to the size, it could be known that it was at least a general flag, there must be a big man in this team, he hurriedly ordered the free-firing soldiers to concentrate their fire on this group of people.

'Boom, boom' The officers and soldiers of Jiadu fired two salvos in succession, and more than a dozen Jurchen soldiers on the outside were knocked down, but soon someone gathered to block the outside.

"Shoot continuously!" This scene made Peng Jun even more convinced of his judgment, there must be a big man hiding there, and he hurriedly ordered to shoot again, but this team of men and horses ran out of range after losing a dozen people, which made him sigh that if there was a cannon here, it would be good to take down this big man

"Cough" After Yan Pu Jianu looked back at Gu Dao and then looked at the guards with less than 100 horsemen left around him, he spat out blood, shook his body twice and fell off the horse.

"Du Shuai, Du Shuai" Several guards hurriedly dismounted and picked him up, only to find that blood was gushing out of his thighs, and the blood spurting from his mouth turned out to be angry.

"I don't have the shame to see the emperor again, what are you doing to save me, it's better to let me die in battle!" Wanyan Pu Jianu cried, he is the royal prince of the Eight Classics, that is the nephew of Wanyan Aguta, brave and good at fighting, he has never been defeated since he commanded the army, he has been a thousand enemies of 8,000, and his body was injured in more than ten places, and he returned with a great victory. This time he was ordered to participate in the pursuit of Yelu Yanxi as a deputy marshal, because he fled without a trace, and had to be stationed in Texas, a few days ago a thousand people under his command went to fight the grass valley but none of them came back, after learning the news, he led the three thousand gold army and five thousand Liao troops to retaliate, but was ambushed again, and was able to get out under the desperate escort of the guards, so that he did not want to die!

"Take care, we can reorganize our army and fight again, why bother!" The guards held down the leader who wanted to die or live, hurriedly took off his armor, tore his pants, and gasped, this leader really caught up with the 'dog strong', and he was hit with a hole in his leg, and he could run out on horseback, it was not easy!

"Knowing that this is the Liao army, I will kill it all to avenge today's humiliation!" Wanyan Pu Jianu was more distressed than hurt at the moment, and he couldn't stop swearing by the curse, but he couldn't find the main owner, thinking that it was still done by the Liao army that slipped through the net.

Everyone wrapped up Du Shuai's wounds, tied him to his horse and ran for more than ten miles before stopping to collect the remnants, and when the sun set, a team of less than 1,000 people was gathered. The next day, the army was mobilized to return to Tianhu Mountain, and the team that ambushed them had long been gone, leaving them with corpses all over the ground and a blood-red valley, although Wan Yan Pu Jianu shouted for revenge, but the commander who led the troops, Wan Yan Xian, also had a blue face, and did not say a word, and everyone seemed to have cowardice in their eyes when they looked at him!

"Alas" saw that the joy sighed, and the prince fell asleep on the bookcase again, he gently put the big coat on the prince, and added some charcoal to the brazier to make the tent warmer.

"Why am I asleep again!" Zhao Ta was awakened, sat up suddenly, looked at the tent and saw only Xi, relaxed and rubbed his eyes.

"Second master, it's past the time now, go to bed early, we have to hurry tomorrow!" Seeing Xi, he shook his head and said, since Zhao Xin left, the prince has not slept peacefully for a long time, and even more so when he arrives in the northwest, there are things that cannot be dealt with every day.

"Make me a cup of strong tea, and have something to eat, I'll finish reading these official documents, and I'll catch up on sleep in the car tomorrow!" Zhao Ta stretched his waist and said.

"Second Master, since you don't sleep, let's take a look at these two urgent reports first!" Miki took out the emergency report from his sleeve and said.

"Oh, where did it come from?" Zhao Ta asked, Jianxi's attitude tonight was a little abnormal, and he had to persuade him at length in the past.

"One was written by Zhao Yong, and the other was transferred by Sheng Rentang, both of which are things on fire!" Jianxi said, thought about it and put Sheng Rentang's urgent report below before presenting it
