Chapter 1105: After the Fierce Battle

FirearmsGunpowder against cold weapons is absolutely unfair.

If the measure is enough, the Tang Army will win today's battle without any suspense.

It's a pity that after he led the main force south, he took away most of the firearms and gunpowder of the battalion.

Originally, I thought that the 5,000 soldiers who stayed in the camp only needed to guard the camp tent, but I didn't expect Goguryeo to collude with foreign tribes, which caused the shortage of gunpowder for the 5,000 Tang troops.

A series of explosions blew the enemy troops on the left and right flanks to the ground, and the battlefield was filled with a rain of blood and stumps and severed arms.

More than 100 explosive packs were detonated at the same time, and the power produced was even more terrifying than that of the Nine Heavens Divine Thunder.

The sky shook at the time of the explosion, countless rising gunsmoke, and the screams of crying fathers and mothers, the battlefield instantly seemed to turn into Shura hell, and the enemy troops who had taken the initiative to attack suddenly fell into chaos, and more than 100 explosive packs were detonated at the same time, causing countless casualties to the enemy.

The tide of the battle seemed to have been turned in an instant, and the officers and men of the Tang Army on the left and right flanks were encouraged, and immediately shot in formation under the orders of the generals to expand the results of the battle.

Before the enemy soldiers who were lucky enough to survive the explosion had time to rejoice, countless people were hit by oncoming firearms and projectiles, and the Tang army reaped another batch of lives.

20,000 enemy troops against 5,000 Tang troops, and the enemy's original victory situation changed with the appearance of explosives packs.

The enemy troops in the front and center were still fighting hard with the Tang army, but the enemy troops on the left and right flanks suffered heavy losses.

Li Qinzai was indifferent, but he was secretly sighing in his heart.

The last pack of explosives was thrown out, and all the killer weapons of the Tang Army were exhausted.

What follows is a hard fight with a knife and a gun, and there are no shortcuts.

Li Qinzai regretted it, but the enemy commander who was far away had a black face.

I thought that after paying a huge sacrifice and breaking through the death zone of the Tang army's two hundred steps, their firearms would be unusable, but what I didn't expect was that the Tang army actually hid even more terrifying firearms.

The surrounding mountains seemed to be shaking, and the main general watched as the warriors under his command were blown to pieces, and he even saw countless stumps falling from the air.

This loud bang, the sacrifice is too great.

What makes the main general even more terrifying is that how many unknown firearms are still hidden by the Tang Army next? If there were a few more explosions like that just now, it would have been defeated today, and it would have been a defeat of 20,000 against 5,000, and it would have been a shame to be written in the history books.

The enemy general's face was hideous, the muscles of his cheeks kept shaking, and after a long time, he suddenly ordered Mingjin to withdraw his troops.

He didn't know if the Tang Army still had such a terrifying firearm, but he knew that he couldn't afford to gamble, and if there were a few more rounds, the warriors under his command would be wiped out today.

A qualified general must at least keep a clear head on the battlefield, know how to seek good fortune and avoid evil, and use the safest way to achieve victory, instead of risking the lives of all officers and soldiers as he is now.

At this moment, the enemy soldiers who are fighting the battlefield, their psychology is also on the verge of collapse, the explosion is too terrifying, after the explosion, their military morale has been lost, even if the number of Tang troops is not as large as theirs, they still have an urge to turn around and run away.

At this moment, they suddenly heard the sound of gold, and the enemy soldiers suddenly heard the sound of heaven, and they hurriedly turned around and ran.

It comes like a tide, and then recedes like a tide.

Only thousands of corpses were left on the battlefield, both those of the enemy and those of the Tang army.

"Immediately straighten out the array and clean up the battlefield, quick!" Liu Renyuan was covered in blood, brandishing a knife and shouting.

Walking in front of Li Qinzai, Liu Renyuan hugged his fists and said: "Li Shuai, we have a small victory, we will defend this important road to the south!" ”

Li Qinzai nodded, looked around, looked at the corpses of the war dead everywhere, and sighed gloomily: "Hard work General Liu, quickly count the casualties of our soldiers, as well as the damage to weapons, the amount of gunpowder remaining, and so on. ”

Liu Renyuan responded loudly.

Not long after, Liu Renyuan hurried over, his eyes were clearly red, and he choked up to report the casualties to Li Qinzai.

In the battle just now, the enemy suffered a total of more than 8,000 casualties, and nearly half of the 20,000 enemy troops suffered casualties.

The casualties of the Tang army were not small, about 2,000 were killed in battle, not counting the lightly wounded, and more than 400 were seriously wounded, and more than half of the casualties were the same as the enemy army.

If we only look at the casualties of the enemy and ourselves, the Tang Army will undoubtedly win a great victory in this battle.

The comparison of more than 2,000 casualties with more than 8,000 shows that the Tang army has made a lot of money.

However, this cannot be done because the battle is not over.

The enemy troops withdrew their troops, but did not retreat.

The scouts came to report that after Mingjin, the enemy retreated five miles to garrison, and there was no intention of withdrawing troops at all.

Li Qinzai wanted to stick to this only way to the south, but the enemy general was determined to open up this only way to the south.

The two armies are fighting and facing each other, and neither of them will easily compromise and retreat.

Li Qinzai concluded that the enemy army would inevitably attack again, and after a fierce battle, the enemy army was still overwhelmingly superior in numbers, but the Tang army was only more than 2,000 left, and the enemy general had no reason to give up the upcoming victory.

His mood became heavier and heavier, and Li Qinzai knew that the next fierce battle would be even more tragic, and this place would be the burial place of the soldiers, including him.

The moans and cries of the wounded soldiers were heard in their ears, and the doctors in the army ran between the wounded with pale faces.

The soldiers who died in battle were carried out of the battlefield, and there was no time to bury them, to clean up their stumps, or even to cry for the dead robes, and to say goodbye.

Everyone is actually not busy, most of the soldiers are sitting or lying down, taking out dry food and swallowing it in large gulps, they want to save their physical strength, recover their physical strength, and everyone knows that this war is not over yet.

Except for the groans of the wounded, there was silence all around, and the soldiers were indifferently gnawing on dry food, and no one in the crowd made a sound.

Occasionally, a heart-rending howl would suddenly be heard, which was a farewell to the once vivid robe.

War brings people more than just the joy of victory.

…………

Humiliating the city.

A mutiny has taken place.

Without warning in advance, when the civil officials and generals guarding the city came to An Xuanlian's mansion to celebrate his birthday with their own thoughts, and the wine was half-drunk, An Xuanlian's face suddenly changed and changed suddenly.

Hundreds of defenders loyal to An Xuanhuan rushed into the hall and put their knives on everyone's necks, as for the civil official who seized An Xuanlian's military power, before he could ask angrily, An Xuanhuan pulled out his knife and cut off his head with his own hands.

At the birthday banquet, the generals who were co-opted by the civil officials and betrayed An Xuanhuan were tied up and put in prison.

At the same time, more than a dozen generals loyal to An Xuanhuan quickly entered the barracks, took over the military power, and after killing a group of obstinate defenders, the city finally returned to An Xuanlian's control.

The dust of this mutiny has settled, and An Xuanhuan has no way out.

Xue Ne finally let go completely, and his mood couldn't help but be ecstatic.

In a daze, he really took this city without blood, and the great achievement of pouring the sky fell on his head like this, who to reason with?
