From noon, the sun is scorching.

Until evening, the sunset dyed the sky of the river red. The color of the river was almost as bright as the sunset.

The Chu army launched nearly ten consecutive fierce attacks.

Every time, five or six thousand miscellaneous troops were holding wooden shields with little defense and dense gunpowder guns, and charged desperately to the front of the Mama.

There were even a very small number of miscellaneous soldiers who flipped over the horse and jumped bravely into the Danyang army formation... and then were chopped into meat sauce by the Danyang soldiers.

But in the end, under the fierce bombardment of the small steel cannon, the Chu army's 30,000 miscellaneous soldiers charged again and again and again and again, but they retreated.

After all, they were a group of miscellaneous troops. Not long ago, they were still farmers who were plowing the fields in the fields, and they only took a few days to wield their swords and guns.

Their training was seriously insufficient and they did not have enough courage to face the extremely fierce bombardment.

The casualties were far more than expected. Thirty thousand miscellaneous soldiers had already been killed in battle. If it weren't for the ten thousand elite infantry soldiers who were in charge of the formation, I'm afraid these miscellaneous soldiers would have fled long ago.

But the results of the battle were very few.

The only result of the battle is probably that the Danyang Army consumed a lot of physical strength, gunpowder and ammunition.

General Li Pan sighed with a deep sense of powerlessness.

This Danyang soldier is too strong. This is a peerless elite soldier who is one to ten! As long as it is used well, you can almost walk sideways on the battlefield.

Unfortunately, such a strong elite soldier is actually in the hands of Xiao Hunhou.

Li Pan looked up at the sky.

It was already dusk and it was dark, and only half an hour was left.

King Xiang Wu of Chu waited on the Dajiang River for half a day. He had not yet taken down the Danyang Army, so the King of Chu was probably quite disappointed.

"After fighting for six thousand Danyang soldiers, they must be exhausted and have reached their limit."

"The last wave is here, and Danyang Army must be taken down before dark!

Otherwise, after dark, the army will be unable to see things and fight at night. Danyang Army will have a full night of rest, and tomorrow will be full of vitality..."

Thinking of this, Li Pan made up his mind to fight immediately.

Most of the soldiers and civilians in Da Chu could not see clearly at night, just like blind people, and could not engage in night battles. Even with torches, it was difficult to distinguish slightly far away.

"One thousand elite infantry in our headquarters are lined up and ready to attack! At all costs, we have to attack in one go. After fighting this battle, we will enter Danyang City tonight and let you enjoy it!"

Li Pan shouted.

These 10,000 well-trained elite infantrymen were his greatest capital and he was reluctant to throw himself into the battlefield.

Now, they are finally asked to go out.

The remaining group of unhappy and exhausted soldiers quickly retreated to the side.

Ten thousand elite infantrymen of the Chu army gathered and formed a row of soldiers, among the gunmen and the swords, shields and hands, and began to prepare to launch an attack on the Danyang army.

The Chu army's 10,000 light cavalry were still watching from behind... and they were anxious.

However, these light cavalrymen could not rush up to die. They could only fight behind the scenes... by the way, they were the generals.

Behind the elite infantry, they were forced to rush forward.

...

In the Danyang Army's turtle formation.

The Danyang soldiers held a gunpowder gun with a pole and aimed at the distance, with their hands trembling... It was not that they were afraid, but that they were too tired and could not hold the gun.

After a day of fighting.

They had long been used to fighting and became extremely numb and had no fear of the Chu army. They could only keep going back, fill in gunpowder projectiles, and go forward to fire. Then, backward to fill in gunpowder projectiles.

There are very few opportunities for close combat.

Almost all the enemies were falling down in groups outside the Joe Ma, and they couldn't rush into the Joe Ma.

Even if you rush to the vicinity of Juma, it's okay.

Because in addition to the two magical weapons, gunpowder guns and small steel cannons, the Danyang Army also has a terrifying weapon - gunpowder bag.

When you throw a gunpowder bag, there are thorny iron slices inside. Fry it and the armor will not be left within a few dozen steps.

There were a lot of gunpowder packs in dozens of large carriages.

It's just not very useful.

Chu Tianxiu shouted so hard that her throat was smoking and her lips were cracked. She took the gourd and took a big sip of water.

His eyes were staring at the movement of the Chu army's troops deploying troops.

The miscellaneous soldiers retreated like a tide.

Another ten thousand Chu army infantry came up.

Everyone was wearing a pair of leather armor and holding swords and shields. The formation was very neat and the military might be solemn.

Leather and iron armor are only available in regular army and the Central Army.

All the soldiers were commoners.

The army of tens of thousands of people can remain silent, without the feeling of scattered soldiers. You can see at a glance that this is a truly well-trained elite soldier.

The Chu State had not many elite soldiers, only 30,000 in total, which was 10,000 of them.

The combat effectiveness of these ten thousand elite soldiers is even stronger than that of fifty thousand miscellaneous soldiers.

Li Gannian had ash on his face, wiped his sweat, and said, "Son-in-law, the Chu army is taking out the elite soldiers. Is this going to fight to the decisive battle?"

Chu Tianxiu nodded slightly, narrowed his eyes and said, "Well. Take out the fireworks. Once they charge forward, they cannot change the formation, and they will launch them immediately!"

If the Danyang Army was full of energy, it would not be afraid of this elite Chu infantry, so it would be possible to fight them.

However, after a day of fighting, the Danyang Army was already very tired and could not even hold the gun. I am afraid that this wave would be difficult to stop the Chu army's fierce charge.

"yes!"

...

In the woods in the distance.

Li Yu stared at the battlefield with his eyes tightly.

My husband has never sent any signal to ask for help.

The battle by the river ranges from the bloody battle at noon to dusk.

The Chu army fought tens of thousands of troops extremely hard, and the Danyang soldiers were obviously exhausted, but they were still persevering.

"Swoosh!"

Suddenly, a firework soared into the sky, and a dazzling firework exploded above the Danyang Army.

Used as a command signal.

Nothing is more suitable than fireworks. It is clear at a glance and extremely eye-catching.

"Princess, it's the fireworks that sounded, and the son-in-law sent an attack signal!"

Di'er said in surprise.

"You can do it now!"

Li Yu immediately jumped onto the war horse and ordered, "Thirty thousand infantry charge head-on, and penetrated into the back of the Chu army. Twenty thousand cavalry, cover up and kill, kill the 10,000 light cavalry of the Chu army, don't let them escape!"

Twenty thousand cavalry roared out of the woods and headed straight for the 10,000 light cavalry of the Chu army.

Thirty thousand elite infantry rushed out of the woods and rushed towards the back of the Chu army who were fighting by the river.

...

"Ba~!"

A dazzling firework exploded in the sky of the Danyang Army, and the golden fireworks were extremely eye-catching.

On the river bank, tens of thousands of soldiers of the Chu army looked up one after another.

What a nice view!

They have never seen each other in their lives.

Don't know what this is?!

"Is this the fireworks? I heard that on the Qixi Festival, Xiaohunhou held a fireworks event on the banks of the Qinhuai River. The beauty of the fireworks caused a sensation in Jinling City."

"It's indeed a very beautiful thing in the world!"

"Little Hunhou, you are such a peerless talent!"

King Xiang Wu of Chu couldn't help but sigh.

"King, I heard that this firework was invented by Chen Wanbao and the old immortal Li Nan."

A scholar next to him.

"It's just a cover-up! Chen Wanbao and Li Shenpu, I know that they don't have much talent in their lives. Xiao Hunhou pretended to be the hands of the two and invented the fireworks.
