Chapter 66: Slaughtered
On the battlefield, smoke rose everywhere, burning the company camp.
After being shelled by a single artillery shot just now, the camp was already devastated.
The thieves were defenseless at all, and they didn't expect the artillery of the Ming army to hit so far. The camp was set up in one place, and was bombed indiscriminately by Chongzhen's 30 shells, and more than half of the 30,000 troops died directly under the shelling, and many people were injured by the aftermath of the cannon and lost their combat effectiveness. Even the main general Li Guo was bombarded into slag by the cannons, and only a group of rabble remained.
There are less than 10,000 people left who can stand up, and the vast majority of these people are frightened, so how can they dare to resist? Seeing the Ming army coming out of the city, they can only give birth to two legs.
"Kill!"
Chongzhen took the lead and ran at the forefront. He is now a congenital powerhouse, a light skill, and he runs faster than a horse.
Carrying Shang Fang's sword in his hand, he cut it when he saw someone.
Although Shang Fang's sword is a guard of honor sword, it is the exclusive thing of the Great Tomorrow after all, and it is also made of extremely precious materials, extremely sharp, and can be called the most precious weapon in the world.
As soon as the sword went down, it almost didn't need to be forced, and a head flew up.
Chongzhen slashed left and right, and every sword must take away a head.
Even, at the end of the killing, the excitement became up, Dugu Jiujian was unleashed, and after a sword light and sword shadow, the thieves around him were killed. When Luo Yangxing and others caught up on horseback, there was only a corpse left.
Luo Yangxing and the others were also taken aback, although they knew that Chongzhen was strong when they dealt with the traitors of the Ouchi guards in the palace before, they didn't expect that Chongzhen was so strong.
"Your Majesty, you are really a god!"
A group of soldiers from the Beijing camp who caught up were amazed, and they admired Chongzhen more and more in their hearts. In this era, the emperor is faith, but, as a soldier, he still respects the strong more.
"Your Majesty is the Son of Heaven, only the gods are blessed, let's not worry, let's do it quickly, otherwise everyone will be killed by His Majesty, and the credit will be gone!" Luo Yang yelled, encouraging those soldiers in the Beijing camp, and at the same time, he followed Chongzhen's side with the brocade guard, guarding carefully. Although the Jinyi Guards also covet those credits, they are the guards of the Son of Heaven, as long as they serve the emperor well, what credit is there?
There are more than 40,000 guards in the Beijing camp, in addition to those who eat empty salaries, there are also those who are guarding at several other city gates who are running slowly, and this time there are 20,000 or 30,000 people who come out, almost pouring out of the nest, and even thousands of ordinary people carrying harpoons and hoes behind them.
People are like this, they have a herd mentality. At first, it was just a few bold young men who came out with the guys to get some credit, but then others saw it and followed, and slowly, there were thousands of ordinary people out of the city. It is also a large combat force.
These ordinary people, if they encounter the enemy army on the frontal battlefield, they will definitely collapse at the touch of a button, but now, the people who broke into the camp have long been frightened, and they are scurrying around, plus there are tens of thousands of troops pressing the formation, and they really let them catch a lot of miscellaneous fish.
These people are not stupid, they are all a few people, or even a dozen people, form a group, and if they catch one, they will be beaten to death. If you kill one, it's a hundred taels of silver, and even if ten people divide it, it's ten taels.
Those thieves, a few wanted to resist, but before they could make a move, a dozen spears stabbed them, and before they even had a chance to speak, their heads were cut off.
As for those soldiers in the Beijing camp, they were depressed, there were originally more people and less meat, and now a group of ordinary people came up to grab the credit. Almost all of them are fighting for me, fighting bravely to kill the enemy, for fear of falling behind others. If Chongzhen hadn't been on the side, maybe there would have been a joke about his own people fighting for credit.
Chongzhen slaughtered until he rose, slashing one hundred and eight people in a row, and the corpses behind him piled up together, paving a bloody road.
"Happy!"
At this time, Chongzhen couldn't help but be a little out of breath. The Shang Fang sword in his hand was all mutilated, and it was full of dense cuts. This is also fortunate that the material of Shang Fang's sword is extraordinary, and with one sword, even the armor of the person is broken. Replaced with an ordinary sword, after such a tragic battle, it would have been scrapped a long time ago.
"Your Majesty is mighty!"
Luo Yangxing ran forward, handed over a pot of water, and said, "Your Majesty, rest, just leave these rabbles to the people below." ”
Chongzhen also knows that he can kill people to have a good time, but for the people below, it is a real credit, which can be exchanged for silver.
The reason why he opened his mouth and set up a heavy reward was naturally to stimulate the combat effectiveness and bloodiness of the Ming army.
Therefore, after killing it and getting over it, Chongzhen stopped.
took the kettle and took a sip, rinsed his mouth, spit on the ground, and said, "Bring the wine, it's fun to drink!"
There was no shortage of wine on the battlefield, and it was a camp that soon found a jar of wine.
Chongzhen took a few gulps, threw the wine jar down, looked up to the sky and laughed: "Happy! No wonder the ancients drank and killed people, and it was really enjoyable." In ancient times, there were swordsmen who killed one person in ten steps, but today I will kill one person in ten steps, and it is not too much to kill one person in one step. Ten times more than the ancients!"
Luo Yangxing nodded again and again, and complimented and praised: "Your Majesty is really a god descending from heaven, and in a moment, he will kill hundreds of enemies." Not to mention a swordsman, even the overlord Xiang Yu can't be compared to His Majesty!"
can be an official, the sycophant kung fu is definitely not bad, don't look at Luo Yangxing's appearance of a big old man, but it is simply a lotus flower, almost praising Chongzhen to the sky.
Even if he knew that this guy was exaggerating, Chongzhen was a little fluttering. Who made us have this strength now!
It didn't take long for the entire camp to be slaughtered.
The vast majority of the Ming army had a smile on their faces and carried a human head in their hands, this is a certificate of reward, of course, not every Ming army killed a thief, there are not so many people at all, many of them are several people sharing a head together. There were also many people, in groups of three or five, gathered around and discussed how to distribute the money after they got it. There were also some people who, failing to kill the thieves, ran to the camp that had been blown up before, and found many thieves whose bodies were still intact after being killed by artillery and cut off their heads.
Chongzhen saw these in his eyes and did not stop them. Whether it is a soldier or an ordinary person, if you dare to go out of the city to kill the enemy, it is worthy of reward. Only when there is a reward can the combat effectiveness be stimulated.
At this moment, the ground shook slightly. The sky kicked up bursts of smoke and dust, and the shaking of the ground became more and more rapid.
"It's not good, it's the thief's cavalry!"
Experienced soldiers immediately recognized that this was a movement that could only be created by a large number of cavalry.
Suddenly, all the Ming troops panicked.
The Beijing camp is all foot soldiers, and when they meet cavalry, they will send people to their heads.
Some veterans have already begun to lose their heads and turn around and run.
Only those ordinary people who have little experience are still giggling and don't take it seriously.
