Chapter 616: The Decisive Battle of the Khan's Court (6)

"General, the whole army has entered the position!"

On the high ground behind the original camp, a soldier reported to Zhang Zuofeng in a deep voice.

Zhang Zuofeng breathed a sigh of relief and said to Lin Shaodong beside him: "The marshal asked Cao Siyuan to build a ring fortification on the back slope, which happened to block the vision of the grassland people, making them undetectable, and also allowing our army to quickly come from the depression to the highland!" ”

Lin Shaodong smiled: "Now do you have the confidence to hold the camp?" ”

Zhang Zuofeng nodded and said: "Of course I have confidence, but I still don't understand one thing, since we want to take the Khan Court, why don't we move with the whole army, but build such a position?" ”

Lin Shaodong thought for a while and said: "The marshal said that with the current level of equipment and training of our army, the strongest tactic is trench warfare, I think he wants to forcibly turn the home field of the grassland army into the home field of our army, right?" ”

Zhang Zuofeng was stunned: "But in this way, our army's camp has become a firefly that attracts all kinds of grassland armies to attack, where is there still the strength to take the Khan Court in one fell swoop?" And if our army can't take the Khan Court, wouldn't it be dangerous for the marshal who is still deep in the Khan Court now? ”

Lin Shaodong's face changed slightly when he heard this, and he shook his head and said, "Who can guess the mind of the big handsome?" I guess he has a trick up his sleeve......"

"Report!"

As he was talking, the scout suddenly came to report: "Two lords, there is an enemy army on the east side of the camp, and the total number will not be less than 20,000!" ”

"Oh?"

Zhang Zuofeng and Lin Shaodong immediately came to the other side of the position when they heard this, and each of them took out a telescope from their arms and looked into the distance, only to see that a large army had indeed appeared about seven or eight miles away, but their movement trajectory was a little strange, and they seemed to be advancing in a roundabout way, instead of going straight to the camp.

"It seems that the steppe people are very afraid of our artillery, not only do they move in a serpentine position, but they also keep a distance of five miles."

Lin Shaodong playfully sighed.

Zhang Zuofeng sneered: "Even so, they still underestimate the handsome masterpiece!" ”

As he spoke, he said to the herald beside him: "Inform Regiment Commander Guo to watch him perform!" ”

"Yes!"

The herald clenched his fists and left.

Zhang Zuofeng and Lin Shaodong glanced at each other and smiled.

"I can now understand the big handsome's strategy."

Zhang Zuofeng suddenly laughed.

Lin Shaodong nodded: "Me too." ”

The two looked at each other and laughed again.

"Boom!!"

More than 200 cannons in the Apocalypse Guard camp suddenly roared in unison, and the terrifying sound instantly shattered the silence of the grassland, and the cannonballs streaked across the sky and made a sharp sound like the cry of a night owl, which made people tremble all over the body.

Yin Baya, who was in charge of luring the Apocalypse Guard's shelling, heard this voice, but instead of being a little frightened, he laughed excitedly and said, "Okay! The military advisor was clever, and the Han people were really fooled, and they had already opened fire when we were still five miles away.

Our mission is complete, inform the brothers, and retreat immediately! ”

"Yes!"

There was a whistle in the middle of the army, and the 20,000 cavalry who had rushed to half of it immediately turned their horses and fled, moving as swift as the wind, as graceful as a person.

Every warrior is a master of horse control, and this is the terrible thing about the steppe iron horse.

However, no matter how fast a war horse is, how can it be an opponent of cannonballs?

The army had just turned around, and a scene beyond Yinbaya's imagination appeared!

The terrible shells did not fall behind the army, as expected, but fell straight into the army.

"Boom!!"

Thunderous explosions rang out one after another in the horse formation, and the huge shock wave instantly emptied everyone's brains, and the blazing flames seemed to be a giant python with a bloody mouth open, swallowing the nearby cavalry in an instant.

Immediately after, countless fragments of the cannonballs burst out of the smoke and shot in all directions, and everything that stood in their way was instantly shot into a sieve.

As luck would have it, a cannonball landed not far away, and the powerful shock wave immediately lifted him off his horse, but he dodged the deadly fragments.

He struggled to get up from the ground, his surroundings were already full of smoke, and his ears were full of Weng Ming, and he couldn't hear any sound at all.

Countless steppe cavalry howled and rolled miserably, some were on fire, some were only half of their bodies left, and some were directly blown to pieces, and there was a broken right arm beside him, I don't know which part of the warrior.

The unleashed horses were driven crazy by the huge power and noise of the artillery, and the headless flies ran around, and even some of the horses were blown off two hind hooves but did not feel pain, and the two front hooves were still desperately kicking the ground, desperately trying to escape.

There was a hellish scene all around, and Imbaya was terrified.

"Immortal God, is this the Shura Hell you talked about? Who are we fighting against? ”

Yin Baya's face was pale, and a trace of clarity suddenly flashed in his chaotic head, and he wondered: "No, this is the artillery of the Han people, but the military advisor clearly said that the range of the artillery will not exceed five miles, how can it be?" How so? ”

Before the doubts could be understood, there was a sudden cry of a night owl overhead.

Although Yin Baya couldn't hear the sound, he seemed to feel something, and subconsciously raised his head, and the last image appeared in front of him, a cone-shaped object was only a stone's throw away from him.

"Is this a cannonball?"

One last thought crossed Imbaya's mind.

"Boom!!"

A violent explosion ripped open the skin of the earth, reducing everything to shattered ashes.

The poor more than 20,000 cavalry had not yet recovered from the first round of shelling, and immediately encountered the second, third, and fourth rounds of shelling.

The cannonballs rained down like raindrops, and the steppe riders in this area were like meat on a chopping board, chopped back and forth by countless kitchen knives, and finally turned into meat puree.

In the tent of the grassland army, Mr. Zou stood on a high platform and watched what happened to Yinbaya from afar, and the generals around him were all shocked when they saw the power of artillery for the first time.

"How so?"

The corners of Mr. Zou's moved mouth gently spit out three words, and the same question as Yin Baya appeared in his mind.

"The range of the Apocalypse's artillery is obviously only five miles, how can it hit Yinbaya who keeps a safe distance? Don't...... Hit the trick! ”

Mr. Zou was shocked, grabbed the scout's collar and asked, "Has General Kuoluntai's army set off?" ”

The scout looked at his ghostly expression and nodded in horror.

Mr. Zou stared: "It's over, hurry, chase them back!" ”

If Xu Rui hid the range of the artillery in order to surprise himself, then the number of artillery and the speed at which he adjusted the direction may also be fake, in order to attract himself to be fooled!

The scout shook his head weakly, "Come on...... It's too late, at this time, General Kuoluntai's men and horses are afraid that they have already attacked the camp of the Apocalypse! ”

"What?"

Mr. Zou felt the surprised gaze of the generals around him, and his heart calmed down a little, and he muttered: "Xu Rui can't calculate everything accurately, it's impossible, I haven't lost yet!" ”

As he spoke, he suddenly said to everyone: "Immediately gather 50,000 horses to meet General Kuoluntai, and another 50,000 horses to replace him and continue to attack the Apocalypse Guard camp!" ”

As soon as the words fell, the scout suddenly pointed in the direction of the Apocalypse Guard's camp and said, "Look, Commander, General Kuoluntai's men and horses have attacked the Apocalypse Guard's camp!" ”

"Huh?"

Mr. Zou was shocked when he heard this, and hurriedly looked in the direction of the Apocalypse, only to see that a puff of smoke and dust really rushed into the vicinity of the Apocalypse Guard's camp, but the expected artillery did not fall in this direction!

"Strategist, your plan has succeeded!"

The scout shouted excitedly, but Mr. Zou always felt that something was wrong in his heart, and an ominous premonition grew stronger and stronger.
