Chapter 378 Scare away directly
Chapter 378: Scare away directly, the Divine Machinery Camp exerts power
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
Morale rose and he was traveling lightly again. The 20,000 troops from Ji Town quickly arrived at their destination. They rushed over, but they were greeted by a few loud noises. There was a quick reaction, and they immediately thought about it. Isn’t this the sound of the general’s cannon?
Since Wu Yu did not take the enemy seriously and did not restrain his soldiers when advancing, so when the chariot formation approached, the soldiers and horses in Jizhen did not form a dense formation, and the opponent's guns did not cause much casualties. However, these guns were very effective and did not require the officer's orders, and the soldiers and horses in Jizhen immediately stopped.
Carrying the general's cannon, and there is more than one... What kind of bandits are they from? Does this seem to taste wrong?
As he had doubts in his heart, Wu Yu's reward lost its original function. Seeing this, the generals were helpless and had to siege the whole team first. Anyway, the enemy had already acted as a defensive and was surrounded by the army, and he couldn't escape even if he wanted to. It would be better to wait for the generals to come and see if there was any misunderstanding before talking about it.
"What's going on? Didn't this general order the entire army to attack?" Although he was a military family, Wu Yu and Jiang Bin were different. He never had the habit of leading by example. Instead, he landed far behind the army. It was not until he saw the army suddenly stop that he angrily arrived at the front of the team and roared at several generals.
"Sir, the other party fired..." a guerrilla said with some resentment.
Wu Yu was a general in charge of the garrison and had a strong position in Jizhen. However, the army he directly under did not have 20,000 people. At least half of the army came from other troops, but he was dispatched in a gentle name and then followed him.
Of course, his own subordinates knew his temper and would not contradict him, but other people were not so honest. The guerrilla who spoke was a gentle confidant and did not sell his account very much.
"They attacked the imperial envoy's team and killed the imperial envoy. Of course, the cannons were stolen. What are they afraid of? They just had a few cannons. Isn't it all done in one breath?" Wu Yu suppressed his anger and explained with a low roar.
This explanation is really not very convincing. The general cannon cannot be fiddled with by anyone. Without a special gunner, how could it be possible to shoot? Moreover, it has only been a few quarters of an hour since the opponent's scout discovered his whereabouts. The opponent has set up a cannon, and even the sight is almost adjusted...
It is obvious that the other party was using elite gunners, even more than the gunners in Jizhen, and they were definitely not something that bandits could have. Although they had doubts, no one raised any questions this time because the other person's words attracted everyone's attention.
"But... Lord Governor, they even set up the imperial envoy's ceremonial guards, which was also a robbery?" This time he spoke with a guard. He raised his hand and pointed at the circular formation opposite, very puzzled.
"Yes, it must be robbed!" Wu Yuzheng was angry and replied without hesitation.
The generals and schoolmen looked at each other and couldn't believe it. Although they were far away, everyone could see clearly. The ceremonial guard was so complete, the flags and cars were all new, and there was no sign of being robbed at all.
"The robbery is all robbed, and I have to say it a few times?" Wu Yu was furious when he saw that everyone disagreed with him, and raised the gentle banner and threatened: "I have received the full appointment of the *** soldiers, inspect the entire town, and eliminate the bandits. Even if you can't trust me, can't trust me? Do you have to let me take out the *** soldiers' order to implement it?"
He looked at the generals and the school with a ferocious look. Everyone was frustrated. The army paid attention to orders and prohibitions. The more elite the troops were, the more they valued the superiors and inferiors. Although Jiang Bin's men and horses were alien, the more elephant and horse bandits were more regular soldiers, they carried out the orders thoroughly when they went to the battlefield.
"No matter what happens or the consequences, it is all my responsibility. You are all on orders. What are you afraid of? Think about the time a few months ago... I haven't sent an order, so we should advance quickly!" Wu Yu saw that everyone was a little shaken, but his doubts in his eyes remained unabated. He knew that he could not hide it, so he hinted it in a vague way, and finally issued another order with a loud voice.
"Here." Several of his confidants clasped their fists. The others thought about the situation that day, and combined with the current situation, they also guessed a rough idea.
When the *** soldiers gathered their troops, they were said to be going to the capital to serve the king. What they wanted to deal with was the current imperial envoy, the governor of Liaodong. Later, there was no movement, which made everyone feel relieved. Judging from the situation today, it seemed that those words were coming again.
Of course, I don’t have a bottom line when I go to the capital, but here I am here... I have a wrongdoing and a debt, and the emperor will not settle the accounts in the future. If there is a general, it seems that nothing can be done.
"As for the order." Everyone looked at each other and got a positive answer from each other's eyes. So they bowed and clasped their fists and returned to the array to attack.
No one cared about those guns at this moment. If the identity of the imperial envoy was left, it was just a general gun, but it could cause some casualties and could only play a trivial role in the balance of victory or defeat.
The army took action again, and this time with the urging of the generals and the schoolmen, the array stabilized. Although they were only vanguards, there were only 3,000 people, and they were all Wu Yu's direct troops. The soldiers were all firm and murderous intent, showing the true nature of elite troops.
"Kill!" The array stopped slightly outside the range of the general's cannon, then suddenly accelerated and started charging towards the wall of the car.
"Boom!" Although the defense behind the car wall had few soldiers, it was full of momentum and was not showing any weakness. The sound of cannons rang out, and then a burst of smoke and dust were stirred up in the charge crowd, and the screams also sounded.
Of course, compared with the shouts of thousands of people and the shouts of tens of thousands of people in the back, the screams of more than a dozen people were insignificant. The charge queue was not shaken, and it was still firmly attacking the car wall.
The chariots that form the walls of the car are all flatbed trucks for transporting supplies, and are not very high. Therefore, the Jizhen border troops rushing in front are holding long spears in order to stab the enemy hidden behind them through the cart and clear the way for the robes behind them.
After getting closer, both low-level officers and ordinary soldiers were stunned and even more happy because they found that the enemy opposite was holding swords, not spears.
The sword is easier to use than the spear when fighting, but after forming a queue, the situation is now. The spear is much sharper than the sword. It seems that the enemy is either too big or not prepared. Although they have made a car wall like a decent car wall, they have no weapons to exert the power of the car wall.
"This battle is probably easier than I thought." Wu Yu stood on a temporary pile of earthen platforms to watch the enemy. After seeing the opponent's weapons, he was overjoyed. Winning would definitely win, but wouldn't it be better if he could have fewer casualties? Before he became famous, he wanted to gain a foothold in Jizhen, but he had to rely on his own direct troops.
"...Not good!" Before he could be proud for a while, Wu Yu found that the soldiers standing in the front row of the other party suddenly squatted down, and another row of soldiers stood neatly behind him. Facing the surging enemies, they raised their weapons, and then the light flashed, which actually ignited the fire medium...
Musket!
Not only did Wu Yu discover it, but the soldiers who were charging also discovered it. There were also some weapons in Jizhen, but they were not used very frequently. Gunpowder is so expensive, so how could the generals and schools be willing to use it?
But everyone knows the power of this thing. If you are hit, you will definitely be either dead or injured. However, this is not the reason why they are shaken. Just like the shelling just now, this weapon is obviously not something that ordinary bandits can possess.
The cannon may be able to be snatched, and after catching the gunner, they can also threaten them to follow the thief, but how did the opponent's musket soldiers rob? They were all captured and then followed the thief? Isn't that a joke? Looking at the quickness of those people raising their guns to ignite fire, it is obviously the level that only the Divine Machine Camp, which is best at controlling firearms, can reach!
When they looked up at the bright yellow flag, the border soldiers began to feel guilty. The enemy on the opposite side was obviously a real imperial envoy, and they openly attacked the imperial envoy's queue. Is this a general in charge going to rebel?
"Let's fire!" The attacking party hesitated, but the defense party did not hesitate. With the order of the officer of the Musketball Camp, gunshots like fried beans sounded, and smoke from gunpowders rose, and the officers and soldiers of Ji Town were swept down immediately.
The casualties were not very large, but the impact on morale was fatal, especially after hearing the sound of volleys of muskets on the opposite side, the attacking troops suddenly collapsed.
Three-stage combined attack!
For the border army in Jizhen, this is not a secret thing. The soldiers recruited from elders and the border army from their predecessors have heard of this kind of tactic. However, now there are few border weapons used now, so no one knows this tactic and cannot be organized.
The border soldiers all confirmed that behind the wall of the car was the Shenji Camp in the capital, and the elite of the Shenji Camp, and it was obviously the only one who could get their protection. Regardless of whether the generals were planning a rebellion or had any misunderstandings, everyone did not mean to oppose the imperial envoy or to oppose the emperor.
The huge attack ended in a slight manner. What can be confirmed that the charge did happen was only dozens of corpses scattered on the ground. Compared with the number of attackers, the casualties ratio was really low, and the power of the firearms was indeed not great. The border troops were simply scared away.
What they fear is not firearms or death. The elite of the border army has never been afraid of death. If the Tartars were holding the firearms, they would not frown when they charged, but the imperial envoy represented the emperor, and they really dared not offend him.
"Damn it!" Wu Yu gritted his teeth and cursed angrily, not knowing who he was scolding.
Xie Hong was quite low-key when he left the capital, and Liu Degang's death also shocked many people, so no one went to watch. How many guards he brought and what kind of guards were made of, others could only guess. No one expected that he brought the Shenji Camp with him, and he was fully armed.
Of course, Wu Yu was one of them. Several cabinet masters did not mention it in their letters, and he even unexpectedly encountered a big board here. The morale of the army was depressed, and it was not that easy to be motivated again. What should I do? He was worried.
After a long time, he suddenly smiled grimly: "Since you are resisting to the end, don't blame me for taking ruthless actions!" After that, he called out loud again: "Li Shou Ge, bring your people up!"
Chapter completed!
