Chapter 3 Sweeping Liuhe Chapter 2 Iron Horse Binghe Section 109 Desperate Kill 3
readx;
Less than five seconds after the first wave of shooting, the second wave of shooting sounded again, and countless running Poole cavalry fell like leaves in the autumn wind, and the ultra-long-distance shooting made the Poole cavalry unprepared, in fact, they were unprepared, without warning, they could neither see the crossbow bolts nor the throwing guns, they only felt that their bodies had fallen to the ground and died as soon as they were weak, and the colleagues around them didn't even know what was going on, until bad luck befell them, they didn't understand, but it was too late at this time。 Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Every time I think of the sound of shooting, there is always a large area of cavalry, even if the fire bolt lead bullet hits the thick armor of the war horse is the same, after the bullet war horse either fell to the ground, or the pain and frightened ran wildly, the entire cavalry phalanx into a mess, as a large number of cavalry fell to the ground and the war horse galloped, just like contagion, the entire cavalry attack wave has not yet entered the attack range of the crossbowmen and spearmen has been chaotic, and the fire gun soldiers are still methodically in accordance with the established tactics to carry out a salvo.
These 10,000 firecrackers can be called the last trump card of the Imperial Privy Council, if it were not for the fact that this battle will determine the future fate of the empire, the Privy Council would not bear to put this batch of firecrackers who were originally intended to use the seeds of the firecrackers army directly into the front-line battlefield, and Cui Wenxiu seemed to care about the important surnames of this group of troops at all, and did not hesitate to put this batch of firecrackers into the second army front that was about to face the most brutal defensive battle. But I can't help but say that Cui Wenxiu's bet is indeed quite accurate, when the Second Legion has been dragged a little unbearable by the Poole wheel warfare method, it is this firecracker team that regained the courage of the Second Legion, watching the black pressure of the Poole cavalry continue to fall to the ground and disappear under their own iron hooves, and the ensuing bow and crossbow shooting and spear storm made the Poole cavalry even worse, and there were very few who could really rush in front of the Tang Army's infantry defense line, which was not enough to pose a real threat to the infantry defense line.
Schiller's whole body almost trembled, he couldn't understand what was going on at all, everything in the clairvoyant mirror was unimaginable to him, he could only look blankly at how the group of thunderous heavy armored cavalry could fall to the ground as soon as they entered the territory of four hundred to five hundred meters, there were neither traps nor tripping ropes on the ground, and it was impossible for throwing spears and crossbow arrows to reach such a distance, even the storm crossbow of the Tang people could not produce such power, not to mention that the storm crossbow could not reach it at all in distance。
The dull sound of shooting became almost inaudible from three thousand meters away, Schiller's dull gaze could not be withdrawn from the clairvoyant, he even wondered if the clairvoyant had deceived him, everything he was expecting had already ended with such a result, this was not what he wanted, no, no, he absolutely could not accept this result, which meant that his military career and even his entire destiny would come to an end!
Almost hysterically ordered the second wave of cavalry to start quickly, Schiller could no longer control his emotions, and ordered all the cavalry to go on the offensive with a thunderous order, if this battle could not be broken through, it would indicate that the entire Poole army would become prey in the pocket of the Don army.
The subsequent aimless charge of the Poole people seemed so powerless to the Tang Army defense line that was waiting for the battle, and the fate of the second wave of impact can be imagined, although many of the firecrackers were forced to withdraw from the battle because of the malfunction, but they had already reserved a thousand firecrackers as the commander of the mobile and quickly ordered these soldiers to replenish in place, and the Privy Council had already taken this into account, and the number of firecrackers was also rich enough, for the Privy Council, it was not difficult to make firecrackers who had mastered the production process, and it was more valuable to train an ordinary soldier to be skilled, especially those who had experienced real actual combat。
When the two waves of shock ended in complete failure, Schiller announced his own results, a sword to seal his throat is his best choice, more than 100,000 heavy cavalry in his hands did not be able to break through the same number of infantry defense lines, and supplemented by tens of thousands of infantry, more than 300,000 troops actually fell into the encirclement of the Tang army, which was not superior in numbers, and was completely annihilated alive, he could not accept such a result, it would be a huge shame for himself and the entire family, if he was still captured by the Tang army, then the entire family would be nailed to the pillar of shame in history, only one death may be able to wash away his guilt a little, and before thatHe has also handed over all power to his deputy, and he has not made any suggestions on what strategy the deputy will adopt to deal with it.
The deputy finally chose to move closer to the west, losing most of the strongest heavy cavalry in the Poole army, and couldn't imagine what else they could do to deal with the Tang army that had firmly controlled the situation, and it was far from quenching the thirst of the near, neither the Dodons nor the Kamans would be of any help to the current situation of the Poolers, and if they didn't surrender, they would die, the outcome was already doomed, but now they needed a decent way to surrender to end this.
The destruction of the heavy cavalry group had in fact announced the fate of the Poole army, and the defense system of the western and southern fronts had also suffered a rout in the attack launched by the emperor [***] that night, although the whole army was saved from being wiped out in time with the timely response of the retreating army on the northern front, but when the suicide of the commander and the disappearance of the main cavalry were heard, the main generals of the Poole knew that this battle could not be continued.
On February 3, 702 in the Gregorian calendar, the Count Senefol, the temporary commander of the Pur Army, signed a surrender agreement with Cui Wenxiu, the commander of the Tang Army, in the main camp of the Tang Army, announcing the unconditional surrender of the Pur Army, and Cui Wenxiu, the commander of the Tang Army, also made it clear that he would treat the captured and surrendered soldiers of the Pur Army in accordance with international conventions, ensure their life safety, and give the same treatment conditions to the wounded soldiers.
At the same time, the Tang army, which ended the war with the Poolers, revealed the news to the Don army that was still entangled in the Tang army, and the commander of the Don army, Konech, also reacted at the first time, and retreated on the whole line, and at this time the Tang army's rangers quickly attacked, and the Yunzhong garrison division and the Yanshan Beiping defense army that had been avoiding also quickly attacked to intercept along the road, and the Doton army, which had retreated for thousands of miles, panicked and did not choose the road, and under the tail pursuit of the Tang rangers, it was almost a road to the sky and no door, panicked like a lost dog, and fled from the south of the clouds into the border area between Doton and Poole, hundreds of miles of land, more than 200,000 troops can return to less than 150,000 people in Doton, all the grain, grass, weight, light and heavy equipment were lost.
The cold wind hit the face, like an ice knife cut on the face, the terrible north wind swept across the sea, people couldn't help but shiver, the thick cotton robe wrapped in leather armor did not have any effect on the cold at this time, this kind of yin wind from hell is enough to freeze people into popsicles. A series of black dots rise and fall in the distance, and if you look back, you can see dozens of warships of various sizes hiding all around, and the howling sea breeze makes it difficult for sailors to control the course of their ships, and they have to widen the distance between ships to prevent collisions.
Zuo Shichang took a deep breath, his thick eyebrows frowned slightly, there was no signal sent by this time, could it really be that the intelligence was wrong? This battle is related to the prestige of the Great Oriental Navy, and it is also related to the security of the eastern coast of the empire.
The Marine Division was all requisitioned by Cui Wenxiu, Zuo Shichang was a little unhappy, but the overall situation was important, and Bo Right Envoy and Lord Lei also made it clear that after the war, the Marine Division would return to the command of the Navy and would be expanded, so this compensation made Zuo Shichang's mood a little more balanced. However, Zuo Shichang also understood that the three marine divisions were obviously weaker if they wanted to contend with the 150,000 Japanese army, especially when it was impossible to know the specific landing location of the Japanese people, and no one could predict what place the Japanese would choose along the entire coast of the Great East Ocean and thousands of miles of coastline.
The Cook Islands, the Ryukyu Islands, and Treasure Island, all three of which have gathered a large number of Japanese troops, and the latest intelligence shows that the first batch of Japanese land will have 150,000 Japanese land on the land of the Empire, and from which part of the land is still not fully grasped until the last moment. This cannot be blamed on the incompetence of the Imperial Intelligence Service, after all, such top-secret information is rarely known even by the top level of the Japanese people, and the only thing to rely on is to make specific inferences from the activities of the Japanese spies in this area and the suitable landing locations on the coastline.
Judging from the ships assembled by the enemy, it is unlikely that the Japanese will land from a landing point, especially in the southern waters of the island, which is simply impossible to rendezvous with the armies of the Cook Islands and the Ryukyu Islands in the north.
Hejiawei should be a more suitable landing point in Yanshan Mansion, the intelligence department shows that this place has been patronized by Japanese spies several times, and the food and various materials in this area are also rising slightly under the collection of some well-intentioned people, plus this is neither as close to the camp gate as the camp gate, although it is suitable for landing, but it is too obvious, and it is not as remote as Zhuzikou, which is not suitable for rapid landing and advancement, Zuo Shichang chose to ambush on this route is to gamble on this, after all, there is no absolute certainty, many times can only rely on his own judgment and intuition。
