Chapter 908: The Power of Gunpowder Weapons
The Northern Hubei Army also heard these words, and some people were immediately unhappy.
Niu Manzi is full of brute strength, and he has always rushed to the front line of the battlefield, and when he heard Li Junyi's words at this time, he immediately quit.
"Who the hell do you say are the rebels and thieves? It's clear that your dog emperor is unkind, unrighteous and unfilial first, what's the matter, he is only allowed to kill his father and brother, and we are not allowed to resist? Then you also have to ask our 100,000 soldiers of the Northern Hubei Army if they agree! ”
As soon as his words fell, the magnificent and uniform voice of the Northern Hubei Army sounded on the battlefield, "Don't agree!" Don't say yes! Don't say yes......"
The Northern Hubei Army has long been dissatisfied with the imperial court, and the imperial court has always defaulted on deducting their military salaries over the years, and last year they simply did not give a penny, if it wasn't for the general to find a way to get some silver, they might all starve to death.
Now that they have learned that the emperor is not in the right position, and the first prince is still a person they are familiar with, how can they be biased towards the imperial court?
"Look, look, the rebels and thieves dare to be so arrogant, and you still don't beat the officials hard!" Li Junyi roared with momentum.
In fact, he is extremely weak in his heart, there are all killing blanks around here, if Jinghe's soldiers don't listen to him, then he will definitely explain here today!
Seeing this scene, Jing He gritted his teeth and made a decision in an instant.
He arched his hand at Liang Cheng and said: "The last general has admired the prestige of the general for a long time, but now you and I are our own masters, and please forgive me for my last resort!" After saying that, he turned around and shouted, "Go on the attack!" ”
Liang Cheng thought that Jing He would say this, but this was not the time to think deeply, since everyone opened the skylight and said bright words, he didn't have to show any affection for the imperial army.
"The firearms battalion listened to the order and divided into three teams to cover the attack of the forward troops!" Liang Cheng waved the command flag in his hand suddenly.
The officers and men of the 1,000 firearms battalion, who had been on standby, suddenly came to their senses and fanned behind the forward soldiers to cover their firepower.
The Northern Hubei Army soon entered the camp of the imperial army, and then found that after entering this side, they all felt that something was not right.
But this situation did not last long, with the ferocious attack of the rear fire cover, the uncomfortable feeling became weaker and weaker, and the Northern Hubei Army soon attacked the rear of the imperial army with all its might!
"General, quickly withdraw, their Raushzi gunpowder weapons are so powerful that even the back hand left by the national teacher has been blown up for us!" The adjutant general said hurriedly.
This was the first time Jing He had seen the power of a gunpowder weapon, and the lethality was far greater than what he had heard.
But...... He can't retreat!
If he retreats, he and the families of the soldiers will definitely not have a good life.
"Herald, no one is allowed to retreat!" Jing He opened his mouth coldly, and then rushed out.
The main player will be off, the battle will become more and more intense, and soon the two sides will enter a stalemate stage.
Only the soldiers of the former firearms battalion were left on the battlefield here, and the fire support was limited, and the Northern Hubei Army knew that they had to fight quickly, and once they entered the tug-of-war, the casualties would be large.
As a result, the imperial army soon discovered that today's Northern Hubei Army is even more crazy than the previous two times, and it is all a way of fighting for life!
Especially the team of people led by Niu Manzi, Liang Cheng caught a glimpse by chance, and in this case, he couldn't hold back the twitching of the corners of his mouth.
Where is this war? It's a life-changer!
There is no doubt that the Northern Hubei Army won.
20,000 people, including Jing He and Li Junyi, were taken prisoner.
On the side of Xiushan County, after the national teacher Yang Chaofan fled, the imperial army was directly defeated, and it was also killed by the Northern Hubei army, and the prisoners were captured.
But this time so many people were captured, and not a single Northern Hubei army was happy.
