With wishful thinking, Du Qi ordered the troops to retreat slowly, and they were able to maintain a relatively complete formation.

Meng Jiucheng sneered when he saw the bandits retreating. This did not exceed the pre-war estimates, albeit a retreat rather than a defeat, so let's fight again!

A team of men and horses cleared the obstacles on the ground, and crossed the stake forest in an orderly manner without hurrying and forming a formation. The cart pulled the pine cannon forward and lined up in front of the formation. The battle formation moved forward, and another team of men and horses drove out, making the battle formation even thicker. Forward, forward, the catapults were pushed up one by one, lined up behind the formation.

Du Qi looked depressed. The opponent's advance was unhurried, ten meters, and ten meters, always within the covering distance of the trebuch. He wanted to give the order to attack several times, but hesitated again, wanting to wait for a better opportunity. It wasn't until the catapult started to move, and two of them had already been pushed to the back of the line, and he knew he couldn't wait any longer.

"Beat the drums, attack!" Du Qi raised his knife and ordered loudly.

"Brothers, rush, kill!" Several leaders screamed, urging their men to attack.

Meng Jiucheng and Qiao E were already on guard in front of the battle, and it was estimated that most of the bandits would take advantage of the fact that the troops were not all concentrated and attacked, although there were pine cannons and gunpowder mines, they were also prepared for bloody battles.

"Fire Thunder - Prepare - " Meng Jiucheng raised his spear, stretched out his voice, and stared at the bandits rushing from the opposite side, and after a while, the spear fell sharply and shouted, "Fire!" ”

The fuse was ignited, and with a whooshing sound, the hook was smashed open, and the arm was pulled by the counterweight, and it jerked upward. The grenade pocket arcs in the air, rises to the highest point, and throws the stone mine in the pocket away.

The two stone throwers threw a total of more than a dozen stone mines, swept through the air, and smashed into the bandit formation more than 60 meters away.

Flashes, explosions, smoke, ...... If you look down from the sky, you can see that the bandit formation is like a stone falling into the water, and the sound and light and smoke appear in the center of the explosion.

After the deafening explosion, the screams and wails rang out irrepressibly, and the bandits' battle formation became chaotic, but there were still bandits who continued to rush forward.

"Artillery—prepare—" Meng Jiucheng turned his horse's head around and passed between the pine artillery carriages, he didn't want to turn into a sieve.

Forty meters, thirty meters, when he could already see the faces of the bandits on the opposite side, Meng Jiucheng issued the loudest order, "Ignite!" ”

Several pine cannons exploded after two or three seconds, thick smoke rose, and various shrapnel swooped down on the enemy with a scream of death.

"Crossbowman - shoot!" Meng Jiucheng couldn't see the effect of the bombardment, but he still issued an order according to his speculation.

Crossbow bolts were thrown, and three rounds were fired in quick succession. The smoke gradually dissipated, and finally there were still no bandits rushing to the front, and the long spear array that was waiting for it did not work, but safety first, there was no problem with the arrangement.

Meng Jiucheng raised his eyes and looked, the bandits in the front were defeated, and the back was also in chaos and hesitated. After this blow, the bandits were already at a disadvantage in numbers, and their morale sank into a trough.

Although there are many kills from pine cannons and gunpowder mines, the psychological blow is the most important. It is not an exaggeration to feel extreme despair and fear when faced with something unknown and powerful for the first time. What's more, Du Qi led just a group of bandits.

"Kill!" Meng Jiu pointed forward with a long spear.

"Kill!" Qiao E let out a deep mezzo-soprano and raised her mace.

"Kill!" The soldiers were excited, and the fools could see that their side had the upper hand, and the bandits were in a rout in confusion.

Several flatbed trucks drove the road ahead, followed by shouting soldiers, charging towards the bandits. It would take a short time for the pine cannon to be reloaded, but the bandits didn't know it, but they were terrified to see the terrifying weapons that could breathe smoke and spit fire and shoot straight at them.

"Hexology, hexology—" Qin Zi pursed his lips heavily, pulled out the donkey and ran.

Du Qi was also blindsided, just instinctively yelling, but he couldn't give any meaningful orders.

More and more bandits turned around and ran, fleeing for their lives in rout. And the defeated soldiers, who lost the will to fight, were driven away like ducks.

Du Qi was pulled by a few cronies, and he also fled in a panic, running towards the river bridge, and most of the bandits also fled in this direction.

"Kill!" Although Meng Jiucheng is not good at riding, it will definitely be difficult to resist when he encounters a general, but he can deal with the fleeing bandits.

With a slight touch of the tip of the spear, with the help of the inertia of the horses running, the fleeing bandit's neck was broken by the huge force of the impact, and his head hung down on his back very strangely, and he rushed out a few steps before falling to the ground with a bang.

"Kill!" Qiao E's mace dragged it, and with the help of horsepower, he beat a bandit into the air and fell to the ground with blood spraying.

"Kill!" The spear in Chen Hong's hand pierced the back of a bandit, and the tip of the spear peeked through the chest.

"Kill!" The axemen also rushed into the battlefield at some point, picked up the axe, and slashed the bandits who were wounded and fell to the ground.

"Rush, kill!" Mu Xiaowei led fifty or sixty people to kill from the side, killing some bandits who were running around, and the rest of the bandits saw that there was an interception, screamed and turned around and fled again.

Morale is like this, just like a person who has a smooth hand, it is difficult to suppress. In the face of an opponent who has no intention of fighting, even the recruits feel full of courage and enthusiasm.

Meng Jiucheng, Qiao E, Mu Xiaowei, and the junior officers who were promoted all took the lead and rushed to the front. The state of the soldiers who shouted and killed was even more skyrocketing, unstoppable, and some people kept shouting excitedly to speed up their pace and slash the bandits.

In the burst of monstrous roars, the bandits have collapsed, some of them lost their armor and just ran for their lives, some even rolled and crawled, shouted in panic, and some of their feet were weak, kneeling and kowtowing to the ground and begging for mercy.

Chasing and killing all the way, Meng Jiucheng led another team to start killing diagonally from the left side, and Qiao E was in the middle of the road, forming a situation surrounded on three sides, pressing the bandits towards the wooden bridge.

Du Qi and other bandit leaders had horses and ran faster than the bandits. It's just that when I approached the bridge, I found that the situation was wrong, and when I got closer, I looked at it again, and I was immediately like ice water pouring on it, and I was stunned on the spot.

There was one body lying on the bridge, and there were three or five on the bridge, all of which were killed by arrows. On the other side of the bridge, the array of dozens of people was tightly organized, and they were the first generals, with horizontal guns and horses, standing in front of the formation. Not far away, most of the old and weak bandits who had left behind to guard their baggage were already lying on the ground, and a few were tied up and guarded by a few soldiers.

Qin Zi's face was as earth-colored as earth, and he said in a trembling voice: "Death, death will be battle." Only fight, fight, fight hard, and kill your way. ”

Du Qi didn't know this, he reached out and clenched the big knife, but his heart was sinking. Attack the bridge when you come, and attack the bridge when you retreat, and fight on this narrow bridge deck, which is really disadvantageous.
