Chapter 873: I can’t help you!
"Thunder Cannon? Where did they get the Thunder Cannon?" Dou Jianming was stunned.
"No, I don't know!" The Buddhist soldier was also confused.
Li Yan'an's face was gloomy and uncertain. Could it be that Lan Deng was so powerful that he had obtained the Thunder Cannon so early?
But even if they have thunder cannons, they shouldn't stab them in the back.
Wouldn't it be better to go and fight Liu Chenghu?
"King Daming, I thought that Ran Deng had obtained the Thunder Cannon in advance, but he couldn't defeat Liu Chenghu, so he came to sneak attack us to strengthen himself!" Li Yan'an analyzed.
"If you can't beat Liu Chenghu, then you come to beat us. What's the point?" Dou Jianming gritted his teeth and said: "At this juncture, shouldn't we cooperate sincerely?"
After saying that, the two of them looked at each other and said in unison: "Unless Ran Deng is recruited!"
Li Yanan said bitterly: "Who is Liu Chenghu? He is the God of the Army. Why did Ran Deng fight with him for so long?
Moreover, the imperial court has a thunder army with a large number of grenades.
I understand. Maybe Ran Deng didn’t really want to rebel from the beginning, he just wanted to use it as a way to get ahead!"
"Randeng, you are a dog thief!" Dou Jianming took out his knife and split a corner of the document, "Let's go back from Jiangnan. As long as we reach Zhujimi Prefecture, we will flee outside the country.
When the time comes, no one in the world can stop us!"
Li Yanan nodded, but he didn't agree in his heart.
The biggest advantage of the peasant uprising is that it is easy to snowball, but once it is defeated, it is easy to fail.
Moreover, the army is constantly burning, killing and looting. Everyone eats and drinks every day. How can there be so much food?
Although they were cannon fodder, now they have become a dragnet, which is enough to kill them.
"Yan An, you gather the elite, we pretend to be in the south of the Yangtze River and let others garrison Tongzhou. This way, we can buy us a few days.
By the time they react, we will have already withdrawn!" Dou Jianming said.
"Yes, King Ming!" Li Yanan cupped his hand and left immediately.
Soon, Dou Jianming left Long Live City with fifty to sixty thousand elites and went straight to Qianzhou.
After running for three days, looting along the way, I finally prepared enough rations for a month. I was about to reach Qianzhou, but on the way, I encountered Daqian's cavalry.
There were probably more than 6,000 people in these groups. Before they had time to react, dense sounds came from the front.
Immediately, the people around him collapsed.
"Thunder Cannon, the opponent has a Thunder Cannon!"
Li Yanan reined in his horse and quickly turned around and ran to Dou Jianming's side, "King Ming, the opponent has a thunder cannon!"
"Son of a bitch, where are these cavalry men from?" Dou Jianming was exhausted after running away for three days. When he heard Li Yanan's words, his mentality exploded.
"what to do?"
"What should we do? Let them charge and buy us time to escape!"
As the words fell, violent explosions sounded around them.
The war horse beneath him suddenly neighed uneasily.
"Run away!"
Dou Jianming was scared to death.
It was also the first time for others to encounter this situation. The opponent could kill the enemy from a distance of dozens of feet. How to fight like this?
The army's ranks were instantly in chaos.
This is the disadvantage of the peasant uprising army. It takes a short time to form an army and its ability to withstand pressure is weak. Once it finds that it cannot defeat it, it will be easily defeated.
"Quick, rush over. As long as we hold back and rush in front of them, we will win!" Dou Jianming said angrily: "Whoever dares to retreat will be killed!"
Due to Dou Jianming's fierce power, everyone had no choice but to bite the bullet!
As for the Daqian cavalry on the other side, who else could be leading it than Li Yue?
After taking down Li Zhi's army, he came to Jiangnan to purge the Jiangnan clan.
The local six doors have already collected a lot of intelligence, and he only needs to go to the door and arrest people based on the intelligence.
Then, Liumen set up a local government office to sort out unjust cases and provide justice to the people, killing many people along the way.
Walk all the way and settle down all the way.
There were Yuchi Nobuxiong and Qin Xiangru on Huainan Road and Henan Road, so he didn't have to worry.
After leaving Shannan Road, we walked all the way towards Jiangnan West Road in order to cut off the retreat of Dou Jianming's army.
Dou Jianming wanted to escape, but there was no way!
He looked at the rushing rebels with calm eyes.
The riflemen fired in an orderly manner.
Combined with mountain artillery, the firepower network formed is as insurmountable as a divine punishment.
The ammunition that had been empty before was also replenished within this half month.
After each round of bombardment, there will be a ten-breath pause to give the enemy time to replenish and also allow the mountain artillery to cool down briefly.
During the idle period, the riflemen will supplement the damage.
After ten breaths, the enemies will fill up, and a new round of bombardment can harvest the enemies to the greatest extent.
This is also the experience Li Yue summed up after calling all the way.
After the seventh round of shelling, the enemy had begun to flee.
Li Yue quickly ordered, "Draw your sword, cavalry, charge!"
He raised the dry sword in his hand high, roared angrily, and four thousand cavalry charged towards the enemy.
kill!
The rebels who had fled were crying for their fathers and mothers after being killed.
The remaining cavalry used the sheep herding tactic to drive the fleeing people together, and used the fewest people to complete the capture of prisoners of war.
Li Yue led half of the army in pursuit.
At this time, Dou Jianming wished he could grow a pair of wings and fly away.
The explosion behind him defeated all his ambitions.
"Damn it, can you stop chasing me and let me go? I will never come back to Daqian again!"
Dou Jianming understood that without strength, everything is fake.
He just wants to survive now!
But those people behind are still chasing after him.
Finally, the cavalry blocked Dou Jianming and others in a mountain col with no escape route.
Li Yue was also panting heavily, holding a loudspeaker in his hand, "You have no way out, dismount your horse, remove your sword, and lie down on the ground. I will spare your life!"
"Surrender quickly, otherwise, we will kill without mercy!"
The cavalry shouted in unison.
The sound echoed in the mountain col, shaking people's hearts with fear.
"Da, Daming King, we, we have no way to escape!" said the person next to Dou Jianming.
"How about we surrender?"
"Yes, Ran Deng can recruit people, and so can we!"
Dou Jianming's face looked uncertain.
Recruitment?
What would the Dou family do if he showed up?
He is rebellious.
Can the emperor spare him?
Li Yanan saw the troubled look on his face and said in a lowered voice: "King Ming, why don't you talk to them and fight? We are no match.
Instead of dying in vain, it is better to find a way out for ourselves. We can put all the blame on the remnants of the previous dynasty and say that we were held hostage by the remnants of the previous dynasty."
"Can it be done?"
Dou Jianming's face looked uncertain.
"Randeng can do it, why can't we? We can recruit the remaining troops from Shannan Road and Jiannan Road.
This is a great achievement, which general can withstand the temptation?"
"Yes, King Ming, let's surrender!" Everyone agreed.
Dou Jianming sighed and understood that he was at the end of his rope, so he said with red eyes: "Brothers, it's not that I want to surrender, but it's actually for the sake of the lives of my brothers!
