Chapter 526: Retreat
At first, Pelodiana did say it very seriously, but gradually she also noticed that something was wrong, so she glared at Luo Ming:
"Hey, did you listen to me?"
Hearing this, the corners of Luo Ming's mouth twitched, and he felt that he was a little too tolerant of her, which caused her to be so out of line.
To be honest, Luo Ming himself doesn't care much about pomp and humility, and only when these things can scare people, or make others feel respectful, and then produce practical benefits, he will find these things useful.
In private, when he and Pelodiana discussed academic matters, their tones were almost completely equal, and they even called each other and drank each other, sometimes arguing and scolding each other for their heads or brain holes, and they would not get angry afterwards.
But at this moment, Luo Ming wants to set an example in front of his own army, and even in front of the entire coalition army, and show the image of a heroic figure who can turn the tide to gain fame and prestige, so naturally he can't let Pelodiana go back and forth like this.
It's the same as not allowing people to make noise during a meeting.
"You're saying a good thing, but who should I do to beat the Belan devil?"
He laughed and fooled the affair, and as his mind moved, Ariana stepped forward and stabbed Pelodiana in the back.
She turned her head and saw Ariana's warning expression, so she reacted, sighed, and lowered her voice: "I'm sorry, Your Majesty, let's talk about this after the war." ”
This matter was temporarily resolved, and Luo Ming looked at the other side of the creek again, although the death squad was very brave, but as Belan's main general landed and began to command, after readjusting the defensive line, their speed of rushing forward became slower and slower, and more and more people fell.
"It's almost time for them to withdraw. Luo Ming no longer hesitated, and immediately blew the horn of retreat.
Hearing the sound of the horn, although the daredevils were a little red-eyed, they had not yet completely lost their minds and fell into a rage, and began to slowly retreat.
When they retreated, the order was kept relatively tight, and they did not disperse in a hurry-on the one hand, because the enemy troops who fought with them were a little frightened and did not rush to follow the pursuit, and on the other hand, because the daredevils were still energetic, and they were full of confidence after the wanton slashing and slaughter just now, even if they retreated, they would not easily turn into a rout.
Of course, they did not withdraw too far, and the Beran army made another adjustment, a heavy infantry armed with armor-piercing weapons and part of the cavalry chased after the soldiers who did not dare to pursue, and some cavalry went around in front of them to try to intercept them.
"Solid bullets, three rounds of fire in a row!"
Luo Ming reported a parameter, then loudly issued instructions, and the next moment, the artillery roared, and the iron ball flew out.
I saw that these solid bullets crossed a distance of 100 meters, grazed the heads of the death squad, and hit the pursuing soldiers, and bounced twice, bringing out a lot of dead and wounded.
To be honest, there are not a lot of dead, and an average of two people can be killed by one shell at the moment.
And Lorming's artillery was not so accurate, some of the shells hit the tail of the slow runners of the death squad, and some flew farther and hit behind the pursuers.
But the tragic death of the solid round projectile, the momentum of the cannon, and the huge blow to morale, made the pursuers' pace slow down a little, and they divided some energy to be vigilant about the direction in which the cannonball was flying.
