Chapter 122: Battlefield Reversal
"Use that guy!"
Xu Yong gave an order, and several soldiers pulled it open, and a tall machine appeared in the center of the barrier.
This is the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, Liu Ye dedicated to Cao Cao's big killer "Thunderbolt Car".
According to today's classification, it is a hand-drawn trebuchet.
This kind of car has not been used by people since the end of the Sui Dynasty - after a long period of peace, some equipment will be forgotten, especially the equipment for attacking and defending the city, and later in the Tang Dynasty, the decisive battle of the cavalry became the focus of attention.
This equipment is one of the drawings that Tian Dabang gave to Xu Yongzhi, sandwiched in a large pile of firefighting team supplies, very inconspicuous, but Xu Yongzhi understood after reading it, so he made one.
Ten strong men tried their best to pull up the rocker arm of the trebuchet.
Measure the distance.
"Put!"
A large area of mud bombs covered the heads of the enemy soldiers.
That's where trebuchets come in.
Throw stones, you can smash walls;
Throw multiple mud bombs that can kill and injure people.
After this wave of artillery fire was covered, Li Yun's soldiers turned around and ran.
When stones fall from the sky, even the most well-trained army will quickly collapse.
Xu Yongzhi ordered everyone to quickly pull down the trebuchet again and reload the mud bombs.
Li Yun yelled that he would enforce military law and kill all the deserters like he had done in the last battle of Gaoping, but the collapse of the army was imminent.
"Put!"
The second scatter shot came out, and Li Yun's soldiers were already prostrate on the ground, and some of them simply closed their eyes and waited for death.
"Get up!"
A woman's snort suddenly sounded on the battlefield.
The voice was not loud, but it traveled far and wide.
Xu Yongzhidu heard it.
It's really a showdown of rivals.
The eldest princess Li Forsythia appeared on the battlefield through the portal, and the person who followed her was the "sister-in-law Qin" who abducted Sister Qiao.
The two witches used shields to hold most of the mud bombs.
"The fairy girl has appeared!"
Someone saw Li Lianqiao and shouted loudly.
"Look, the old man said, we have the power of immortals! Attack me! Li Yun shouted, and took the lieutenant generals and all the reserves into the battle together.
"The trebuchet shooting angle remains the same! The crossbowman is closer! Xu Yongzhi commanded two groups of people at the same time, busy but not chaotic.
With the cover of a witch, the trebuchet is useless.
A large number of dismounted cavalry rushed to the front of the deer, the archers desperately suppressed the crossbowmen of the Song army, and the dismounted cavalry with the horse lance also killed one after another, and the knights of the Song army also picked up the horse lance one after another, and tried to climb the enemy army through the deer barb.
"Isn't it distressing to use cavalry like this?"
"All the commanders! There are also enemies coming up from behind! ”
Xu Yongzhi turned to look at Lu Qi behind him, and a row of enemies appeared on the horizon behind him.
Li Yun's infantry arrived, and it looked like there were about 10,000 people.
"Well, it's all spears, and the phalanx is very thick," Xu Yongzhi looked at it, "The horse can't break through." ”
If there is a group of foot archers with hard bows, a volley will break up.
"The first one is on the horse!"
Xu Yongzhi called the strongest 100 people and asked the deputy general to hold his position.
"There are no cavalry near the enemy's phalanx, we shoot around the formation!." Xu Yongzhi took a hundred cavalry to attack the infantry behind.
"Don't get caught up in the gunslinger! Keep your distance! ”
There were more than twenty cavalry behind the enemy infantry, who were supposed to be the personal companions of the enemy generals. Seeing these 100 people killed, he couldn't hold back and rushed over to meet the battle.
Xu Yongzhi's bow and arrows fired in succession, shooting down three or four, and these cavalrymen saw that the situation was not good, and went around behind their own gun formation.
In a circle, dozens of enemy troops were shot down, but the enemy was outnumbered.
It was necessary to return to the barrier before the horses were tired, and Xu Yongzhi led the cavalry to retreat again.
Without reinforcements, the situation will be terrible, and it will be difficult to use any bow and crossbow trebuchet by 10,000 infantry.
The side of the cavalry attack came up again, Xu Yongyi returned to the fortress, and immediately picked up the horse lance to stab the enemies who were trying to move the deer away, and when he looked up, he saw Li Forsythia staring at him.
He glared at Li Lianqiao fiercely, but he didn't expect that person to actually throw a flattering eye at her.
"Surrender!"
"Dreaming!"
Li Lianqiao sneered, waved his hands, and opened a portal directly in the middle of the camp.
Thirty Northern Han assassins appeared in the center of the camp, and the Song army panicked.
Xu Yongzhi threw the gun away, drew his sword and pounced.
Luckily, the knights were well armoured, and the Assassins couldn't hurt them for a while.
"Fight hard! Kill an assassin and captain a hundred! All the first 500 runs! ”
The eldest young master has nothing else anyway, and there is a little bit of money.
When everyone saw that they had fallen to death, they also gave up their illusions and worked hard to make money.
"Hold on! Reinforcements are coming soon! ”
The soldiers are Murong Yanzhao's, not Xu Yongzhi's, even if Wang Quanbin is dissatisfied with Xu Yongzhi, he will not really pit all these soldiers, this is the family background of the old Murong.
But in a bitter battle, every moment is so hard.
Xu Yongzhi saw Li Yun.
"Capture him alive and the battle will be over."
He got on his horse and shouted, "Lift the deer!" ”
Several soldiers struggled to move the deer away, and he rushed out single-handedly.
The dismounted cavalry couldn't stop his horse, so he killed Li Yun all the way.
Liu Jichong saw Xu Yongzhi rushing over, and hurriedly urged the horse to stop him, but was stabbed off the horse by one of Xu Yong's guns.
"Enough!"
Li Lianqiao screamed, and a restraint spell was hit, Xu Yongzhi dodged this, but the horse did not dodge, the horse told that he was suddenly fixed in the air during the movement, and Pingping flew out, which was indescribably weird.
Xu Yongzhi hurriedly stepped on the horse and jumped forward and rushed straight to Li Yun.
The old man never thought that this battle would be so tragic, Xu Yongzhi still had the idea of capturing the main general alive, and he was a little overwhelmed for a while.
Sister-in-law Qin saw that Li Lianqiao didn't stop Xu Yongzhi, and hurriedly shot a fireball, Xu Yongzhi's back robe caught fire, so she rushed straight to Li Yun with the fire, both of them rolled off the horse, and the fire was also extinguished.
"You? Don't die! Li Yun was taken aback.
"If you rebel, you will die!"
Xu Yongzhi is angry and funny.
This person did the most dangerous thing in the world, against an emperor, but he was not mentally prepared at all, and saw it as if two old buddies were wrestling their wrists.
At this time, Li Yun's soldiers came up hulala.
They separated Xu Yongzhi from Li Yun, and saw that the last fight of this "capturing the enemy general" also failed.
"Surrender." Li Lianqiao held the fireball in both hands and approached Xu Yongzhi with a wicked smile.
Xu Yongzhi suddenly pursed his lips and whistled, and blew a sound.
A gray parrot fell from the sky and pulled a bubble of gray-white bird poop on Forsythia Lee's hair.
"What......" Li Lianqiao suddenly became angry.
"In pharmacy, it counts minerals...... Go to the fire. Xu Yong's face was serious.
Li Lianqiao wanted to say something, but Xu Yongzhi had already raised his horse lance.
"Oh~hey!" He used his internal force to urge the voice to spread far away.
"Oh~hey!"
In the distance, hundreds, thousands, of people were recalling.
"Oh~hey!" Chirp Ash learned this sound in the air, and then flapped his wings and plunged into Xu Yongzhi's arms.
Xu Yongzhi picked up a shield from the ground, held it above his head, hugged his parrot tightly, and curled up into a tight ball.
The sound of a bow and arrow breaking through the air.
Not one arrow, but thousands.
This is a war bow that shoots at the sky, and it is thrown diagonally from a distance, nailing Li Yun's dismounted cavalry to the ground.
Li Yun was taken aback, this was not Song Jun.
Rather, it was a civilian army dressed in olive, all with bows and arrows in their hands.
They stood in three rows.
Skillfully archery, forward, archery, forward.
Li Yun's soldiers were screaming and rolling on the ground, it was really a living hell.
They no longer ignored orders such as "retreat and behead", and began to desperately flee to their horses.
From behind the archers, a middle-aged man turned out, riding a yellow horse, wearing the old-style armor of the Later Tang Dynasty, it was none other than Xu Taishi, the big shopkeeper of Shanzitang, and the Confucian student next to him who was shaking a fan and wearing green clothes was the chief bookkeeper Li Sigui, and there was a strong young man standing in front of the battle, and a red panda standing on his shoulder, it was none other than the stupid boy Duan Zishou.
The ambush army arranged by Xu Yongzhi has finally arrived.
They are the militia of the Bow and Arrow Society from Hebei, when Xu Yongzhi came, he invited Zhao Kuangyin to make a will, and secretly asked Xu Taishi to gather the brothers of the Hebei Bow and Arrow Society, these people have been gearing up for a year, and they have not started a war with the Khitan, I heard that they are going to fight the rebels of the party, Hula pulled out more than 1,000 people, and there are joint exercises in the spring and autumn every year.
The appearance of a group of archers immediately disrupted Li Yun's deployment, not only did his dismounted cavalry collapse quickly, but the infantry also turned around and ran when they saw the cavalry collapse, and Xu Yongzhi's dismounted knights immediately got on their horses and began to pursue.
Li Lianqiao looked at the situation, stomped her foot, beckoned Qin's sister-in-law and fled the battlefield with teleportation, she was very dissatisfied with Li Yun - she had threaded the needle between Li Yun and the Northern Han Dynasty, but she fell short because of Li Yun's pride and stupidity.
In the chaos on this side, Li Yun's retreat was also cut off by a Song army, and the banner was none other than Wang Quanbin - this guy seemed to be watching near the battlefield, and when he saw the enemy collapse, he hurried out to collect his head.
"Yongzhixian nephew! I'm here to help you! Wang Quanbin shouted with a big grin.
It's really annoying, and I don't know what this virtuous nephew's relative says.
"Surrender quickly, surrender without killing!"
Xu Yongzhi's soldiers are collecting and surrendering troops.
Everyone is precious, and they will be soldiers of the Great Song Dynasty in the future.
Xu Yongzhi needs to have his own team, and the surrender will be an important source.
Wang Quanbin's people are clashing everywhere, experiencing the thrill of killing - if they are captured, they have to be guarded, delaying killing people and stealing things.
Xu Yongzhi frowned.
Is this still the army that carries Zhao Kuangyin's ideals?
He rode into the middle of Wang Quanbin's cavalry, and whipped those who used his sword against the surrendering troops with the barrel of his gun and whip, but to no avail.
In the end, he was caught up by Wang Quanbin and grabbed the dock.
"What nerves are you!"
"How do your soldiers kill people indiscriminately?"
"They kill the enemy!"
"They surrendered!"
"Surrender? They hurt our people! ”
"You came earlier, you won't hurt so much!"
"You're blaming me!"
"Don't dare, Lord Thorn."
"Little brother, if you are afraid of the dead, become a civil official as soon as possible! Fighting, how can there be no dead! ”
Xu Yongzhi fought for a day, and he was not angry, so he clenched his sword and aimed at Wang Quanbin's thick neck.
