Chapter 169: The Power of Firearms

As the roar of firearms rang out, the entire battlefield was filled with a layer of gray gunsmoke.

Although the Rong soldiers had seen the cannons on the Huya Pass, the strangely shaped tanks in front of them were something they had never seen before.

"What's that?"

The Rong soldiers who reacted couldn't help but open their mouths wide and exclaimed, this scene was played out all over the battlefield.

It's just that no one can give them an answer, and when the deafening explosion sounds, one by one lives die.

On the other hand, the forbidden army in the pass saw that the firearms that Xiao Jiu took out were amazingly powerful, and the army's morale was greatly boosted for a while.

"Kill, drive this group of Rong cubs back to graze outside the gate."

Yun Bi was so excited at this time that he didn't care about his own image, standing in the position of the Chinese army and scolding Fang Yu for not being able to charge the enemy with his men on the front line.

In a very short period of time, the situation on the battlefield was reversed, and the weak Allied side of Kannai had gained the upper hand and began to turn the tables against the wind.

As the charging Rong soldiers fell one after another, and there were constantly deserters retreating from the front line, even if the Rong army was a fool, they knew that something was wrong at the front line.

Because Zong Yu was in the rear, he didn't really see the battle situation on the front line, and at this time, he couldn't hold back the doubts in his heart to drive the war horse forward.

"What is the voice in front of you, how did you lose so quickly."

Zong Yu grabbed a grizzled general and hurriedly asked.

Looking at the general's dress, it was obvious that he had just withdrawn from the front-line battlefield, and because he was worried that Zong Yu would punish him for escaping, he exaggerated Xiao Jiudi's firearms.

"They have cannons, many, many cannons, even more powerful than those in Huyaguan."

The soldier spoke without hesitation, and Zong Yu, who heard this, instantly sank in his heart.

He is naturally no stranger to the cannon on the upper floor of Huya Guancheng, and what he can't understand is how the heavy cannon was brought to the battlefield.

But the situation is urgent, and he can't think about it anymore, and the most important thing at the moment is to stabilize the collapsed military spirit.

"The generals of all departments are not allowed to retreat, and they are in formation to meet the enemy."

Zong Yu drew his saber and stood on his side, and after personally killing several deserters in a row, he also let the soldiers of the Rong army see him.

Years of war experience tell Zong Yu that today's battle can no longer be fought, and only by retreating first can he have a future, otherwise he will lose his current status even if he returns to Guanwai after running out of troops.

Besides, even the people of the Guannai coalition army can't eat their more than 100,000 troops.

It has to be said that Zong Yu still has a high prestige in the hearts of the warriors of the Rong tribe in the grassland, and the army of the Rong tribe, which was in chaos under Zong Yu's orders, began to form a phalanx like the people of the Central Plains and strive to restore order.

At this time, Zong Yu also came to the front of the battlefield, watching rows of strange-looking things frantically harvesting the lives of his subordinates.

"What is this?"

Zong Yu was puzzled, but he couldn't say it, so he could only try to stop his subordinates from scattering and fleeing.

After the Rong army was basically organized, Zong Yu looked at his subordinates who had suffered heavy casualties, gritted his teeth and shouted to retreat.

With Zong Yu's order, those soldiers who were struggling to support themselves on the front line could no longer endure the pressure in their hearts and began to retreat.

Running fast is not to say that these Rong soldiers are not brave, but it is that those unknown weapons are too weird, and after a thunder, the originally lively companions were directly blown into pulp, which no one can easily accept.

The situation on the battlefield reversed, the menacing Rong army began to retreat, and the soldiers of the Guannai coalition army, which had been pressed and beaten, began to be full of strength.

Yun Bi, who was located at the rear of the front-line battlefield, had always paid attention to the situation on the battlefield, and now seeing that the Rong army wanted to retreat, how could he let them do it.

"They are going to withdraw, today they must cut down the grass and eradicate the roots, and capture Zong Yu alive."

Yun Bi couldn't hold back the excitement in his heart anymore, and directly ordered to pursue the retreating Rong soldiers, wanting to take this opportunity to beat the water dogs.

Yun Bi, as the supreme commander of this war, gave the order, and the others thought that they had no opinions, and they began to smile unconsciously.

In their hearts, the current Rong army has lost its combat capability, and when will they not chase after it at this time?

Only Xiao Jiu frowned slightly when he heard that Yun Bi wanted to pursue with all his forces.

"General Yun, although the enemy army is defeated and retreating at this time, it is not that it has the strength to fight, and if you want to pursue, you need to be cautious, after all, the firearms of my Xiao Zi battalion cannot keep up with the speed of the soldiers."

Xiao Jiu's words are not unreasonable, after all, the defeat of the Rong army can be relied on by these firearms brought by Xiao Jiu, and it is also a fact that these big guys are not easy to handle.

But where can Yun Bi listen to Xiao Jiu's words at this time, and now all he thinks about is beating the water dog.

Today, if you can capture the main generals of the other side in one fell swoop and wipe out this Rong army that has entered the pass, then you can directly take back the Huya Pass and drive the Rong people back outside the pass.

So before Xiao Jiu could continue to finish, Yun Bi raised his arm and interrupted him.

"Lord Xiao doesn't need to say much, the rebellion of the Rong clan has always been a stubborn disease, and if this army can be kept in the pass now, it will definitely be a big help to recover the six border states."

"And this big victory, Lord Xiao is indispensable, and I will leave the rest to the Zhili Forbidden Army."

After saying this, Yun Bi didn't wait for Xiao Jiu to speak, and began to command his subordinates to pursue the fleeing Prairie Rong Clan with all his might.

Seeing this, Xiao Jiu could only shake his head helplessly, knowing that Yun Bi had made up his mind, and no matter how much he persuaded him, it was useless.

Moreover, it is also interesting that Yun Bi only ordered the forbidden army under his command to pursue, and did not ask for the assistance of the rest of the troops.

"Is this for fear of uneven distribution of spoils after the war?"

Thinking of this, Xiao Jiu shook his head and chuckled, no matter what Yun Bi thought, it wasn't for him to care.

In today's battle, although Xiao Jiu occupied the initiative on the battlefield with the firearms in his hand, the Yangcheng soldiers he brought also suffered a lot of casualties.

Xiao Jiu is still very distressed about the loss of these soldiers, especially those non-commissioned officers who have just walked out of the cadets, but they are all talents.

But the cruelty of war will not be attenuated according to anyone's ideas, if the Rong people are allowed to enter the Central Plains, there will only be more human tragedies, and this battle will be fought no matter what.

Xiao Jiu pondered for a moment, and finally arranged for his firearms troops to follow behind the forbidden army, and if the Rong army counterattacked, he would also fight back in time.

As one order after another was conveyed to the front line, the soldiers of the forbidden army, who were stimulated by blood, also began to pursue the fleeing Rong army with a desperate pursuit.

Yun Bi rode on the tall war horse and smiled, how long has it been since he fought against the barbarians of the Rong clan, and today he can finally raise his eyebrows and breathe a sigh of relief.

The war is still going on, and the Rong army that temporarily withdrew can only speed up its pace under the drive of the pursuing soldiers behind, and if it is a little slow, it can only become the soul of the opponent's soldiers.

Among the retreating Rong army, Zong Yu, as the initiator of this war, pressed behind the formation, watching the crazy forbidden soldiers kill and slaughter their own soldiers, and his heart was dripping blood.

Today's battle is considered a defeat, defeated by intelligence.

Before the Rong army set out on the expedition, they did not know that the opposing army would have a large number of firearms enough to determine the course of a war.

And after returning to Huyaguan, he will also have a lot of trouble.

Zong Yu is only the leader of one of the most powerful tribes in the grassland, and he cannot represent all the grassland people.

If Zong Yu can always lead the Rong clan outside the gate to be invincible as the leader of the alliance, his position will naturally be unshakable.

The troops that could be brought out of the pass were all lost in Zhili, and the prestige he had fought in a war before would also be consumed.

Zong Yu had been observing the opponent's firearms since the Rong army began to retreat, and after a simple inference, he could be sure that those big guys were not too mobile.

Without those weird firearms, isn't it too much for the forbidden soldiers in the gate to chase them now?

Thinking of this, Zong Yu tightened the reins and decided to fight back, this is an opportunity!

"Stop, fight back, their strange weapons can't move, give the sheep soldiers in the pass a little color."

With Zong Yu's angry shout, many of the Rong soldiers who had fled stopped one after another, followed their respective commanders and turned to look at the soldiers of the forbidden army in Guannai who were chasing.

Because Zong Yu's words were shouted in the language of the Rong people, the Great Xia soldiers who had temporarily gathered from the pass were still rushing to escape.

However, Zong Yu didn't expect those Great Xia soldiers to have any too high consciousness in his heart, so he just pulled out his saber and pointed behind him to chase the soldiers.

"Warriors, kill back."

After Zong Yu roared, he rode his horse and galloped, faintly with a momentum of looking at the world, which made the originally demoralized Rong soldiers ignite a little fighting spirit.

The generals are brave, and the soldiers under them will naturally be driven.

I saw that the Rong soldiers who had fled began to turn around one after another, clenched the weapons in their hands and began to counterattack the enemy who was rushing towards them.

"Kill."

As the Rong soldiers suddenly began to turn around and fight back, this sudden change made the forbidden soldiers who were chasing and killing the defeated army not react for a while.

The distance between the soldiers on both sides continued to shorten, and the men and horses of the two sides fell into a fight again, and blood flew for a while.

There were about 20,000 Rong soldiers who counterattacked at the rear, but at this time, they had no less than 50,000 people.

The prairie people have always been strong and fierce, and naturally they cannot be compared with those recruits who have just enlisted in the army.

The most important point is that there are more than 10,000 people and boundless, and in a large-scale war like this, the soldiers on the front line of the battlefield do not know the disparity in the strength of the two engines.

Now the Rong soldiers are fighting behind them, and they have faintly gained some upper hand.

For a while, the two sides that had been ready to die down were once again in a mess, and the soldiers on the battlefield only had the enemy in their eyes, and they could only live if they killed the enemy.

Suddenly Xiang Xiang such a change, Yun Bi in the rear of the forbidden army in the Guannai naturally noticed it, and began to regret a little in his heart that he was a little too anxious.

But now that the enemy has turned around and fought back, he can only fight hard.
