When those soldiers of the Western Shu Army who had no idea stepped on the mines that had been laid for a long time, they saw a chilling scene in front of them.
Within a distance of two miles from the military camp, a lot of landmines were densely distributed, sending a soldier of the Xishu Army who was approaching Ming Chong into the air. When he landed, he was not directly killed by the explosion, but his body was damaged by the explosion. , that is, falling behind from the air and being thrown half to death, with more air coming in and less air coming out.
Even heavily armored soldiers cannot withstand this kind of mines, let alone the soldiers of the Western Shu Army who are only averagely equipped and not fully armed because of the hot weather. They have never seen such a thing, and how can they resist it? Understand.
The sound of explosions from landmines affected one person and a group of people around him. When there were more and more explosion points, the momentum of the impact suddenly slowed down.
When more and more soldiers from the Western Shu Army came from behind and saw the blood and flesh in front of them mixed into a "red earth", many people were so frightened that they even threw their weapons to the ground. Most of the people who performed well also had serious faces. , legs trembling.
As a soldier, you fight with your life, whether it's for your future or for a bite of food. Many people are ready to die in battle. But that means facing the enemy with one knife and one shot, and dying after being defeated.
It was like this, the opponent died in battle without even seeing a hair on his face. This was very scary. It also brought out a strong sense of fear in the hearts of many people, forming a sense of fear in people. It feels like the Chinese army can't get close.
"Don't panic, everyone." Liu Cao rode on the horse, and the luck behind him was not affected. But everything that happened in front of him still made him feel scared. As a general, he couldn't show it, otherwise Once the morale of the army is completely depleted, this battle will be defeated.
Forced to persevere, Liu Cao shouted loudly: "Although these things are terrible, as long as we don't touch them, there is nothing we can do about them. In this way, everyone should pay attention to their steps and follow the flow of the dead soldiers just now." Keep walking, then we will be safe. As long as we can rush to the barracks of the Dahua Army, the good things there will be ours, and as long as we win the battle, the glory and wealth will be inexhaustible."
The general was so calm and shouted these words. When the other commanders and centurions heard it, they gradually became calmer. "Yes, everyone listen to the general, don't Don't panic, as long as we pay attention to our steps, there will be no danger."
There were more and more shouts, and the pace of the Xishu army naturally slowed down. As the front army slowed down, the middle army and the rear army naturally caught up, and gradually everyone began to focus. Got together.
Faced with artillery that can hit five or six miles away, the army's focus will undoubtedly become a key target. But any army that has experience fighting against the Chinese army will not do this. Unfortunately, Liu Cao He is the kind of person who has no experience.
Just when he was still rectifying the army, trying to raise the morale of the army again, and preparing to arrange for the dead soldiers to rush to the front channel, there were bursts of roaring sounds in the sky.
The sound seemed to appear suddenly, like a meteor streaking across the sky. Then, with many people looking up and paying attention, it suddenly fell towards the ranks of the Western Shu Army.
The Xishu Army, which was unprepared, had no defense, and was inexperienced, became a living target. The crowds of people gathered also became the bullet points for artillery.
Boom——Boom——
Waves of deafening sounds rang out again, each sound louder than the explosion of a mine, and more powerful force came out. More soldiers also lifted their feet off the ground under the loud sound, and moved from the ground to the air.
Zhong Chong rushed out.
When the sudden explosion sound was denser, more terrifying, and more powerful than the sound of the landmines just now, the Western Shu army two miles outside became completely chaotic.
Dahua Army Barracks.
When they heard the explosions outside, the eyes of the generals in the main tent fell on the deputy commander Wei Chao.
"Let's attack as planned." Wei Chao chuckled. He understood the thoughts of the generals. As the saying goes, soldiers who don't want to be generals are not good soldiers, and generals who don't want to make military exploits are not good generals either.
"No." After receiving the order, the generals all gave a military salute to Wei Chao, then left the tent and headed towards the training grounds of their respective military camps.
Even though the soldiers of the Great Chinese Army on the training field are still training at this time, grass has grown in their hearts and they have flown to the battlefield. It’s just that the higher-ups have to train their psychological quality, and all soldiers must be like generals.
Although the wind and Taishan collapsed in front of me, my face remained unchanged, so today's training continued as usual.
But the training was done, but the hearts of the soldiers had already flown out. They were still able to have the strength to shout and kill and conduct formation training here because the military discipline was too strict and no one dared to violate it. Now the generals appeared
, everyone was shocked, they knew that their opportunity to perform had come.
"Everyone, gather immediately and fight out as planned. But you must remember that you must be orderly when leaving the camp. If anyone disobeys orders and steps on a mine, his death will be in vain. If he hurts his comrades again, he will be killed by the army.
Sinners, your family will also be affected. Okay, let's go." After receiving the order, the commanders of each army came to the soldiers, gave some instructions, waved their hands, and the Chinese army filed out.
Outside the military camp, the Western Shu army, which was targeted by artillery, was already in chaos.
But even so, as long as the leading general is in a calm state of mind, he can still evacuate most of the centaurs. At this time, a sudden change occurred, and too many soldiers ran back crazily without obeying the order, and the number was still there.
There were many, nearly ten thousand people.
They were the 10,000 soldiers who had experienced the suffering of the army's artillery in Shuncheng before.
As these nearly ten thousand people retreated without obeying orders, the impact was so great that even Liu Cao was unexpected. When one of the four people retreated without orders, the so-called ability to obey military orders
There will only be fewer and fewer soldiers.
Originally, they wanted to organize the army to retreat, or find a way to continue the attack, but suddenly the army retreated like a tide, which completely confused the nearly 40,000 Western Shu army. It was Liu Cao.
The general, after discovering that no one listened to his orders, had to flee under the protection of his own soldiers.
Boom boom... boom boom boom...
The sound of shelling continued, or it never stopped. The difference was that their previous attack range was two miles, but now it has extended outward to three and four miles.
This artillery attack method of chasing the Western Shu Army made the Western Shu Army lose the courage to fight. The morale of the army was completely lost, and it could be said that they were defeated like a mountain, and they rushed back.
At this time, the Dahua Army rushed out of the barracks and rushed behind the Xishu Army, which had completely lost their morale. Anyone who ran slower or was injured would become a
The prisoners will never have the chance to return to the Western Shu Army.
The artillery fire continued, as if it had eyes, following the Xishu army. As far as they fled, the artillery fire could fall. This caused more and more Xishu soldiers on the battlefield to fall due to exhaustion.
On the ground.
When they wanted to get up and catch up with the main force, they were surprised to find that the shells had left them far away. They didn't care about their intentions at all, but flew away from above their heads towards the main force.
The army bombarded.
With this development, some smart Western Shu troops no longer chased the large troops, but sat on the ground to recover their strength, thinking that they would wait until the sound of artillery was no longer so fierce before retreating. But as they followed, they found that this could only be done.
It became just an idea, because behind them appeared black-armored soldiers. They rushed to the battlefield and took the remaining Western Shu troops as prisoners and captured them all.
This was originally a battle without any suspense.
This is because Wei Chao and the others have no intention of entering Zhang City, otherwise, this city would have changed hands long ago.
The entire battlefield started in the morning and ended at noon. It was not until the Western Shu Army ran six miles away, away from the artillery attack range of the Dahua Army, that it became safe. Liu Cao kept riding forward and retreating,
He didn't feel any fatigue, but he looked to the left and right and saw that nearly 40,000 people had been sent out, but not even half of them had escaped. There were only more than 15,000 people, and among them there were nearly 10,000 people who had gone before.
When his army was defeated in Shuncheng, he wanted to cry but had no tears.
From beginning to end, he was defeated without even seeing a single Great Chinese Army soldier.
The defeat was so complete that he lost more than 60% of his soldiers. He completely lost the ability to fight head-on with the Chinese army.
With a sigh, Liu Cao extremely regretted the idea of taking the initiative to cause trouble for the Chinese army. Fortunately, his father-in-law's city was not lost, and he was not considered a guilty general. In the end, he could only ride on his horse and returned to the military camp listlessly.
Afterwards, Liu Cao mobilized 10,000 troops from Zhangcheng, ten miles behind him, which temporarily stabilized the morale of the army. But after this battle, Liu Cao also understood that the Chinese army was not easy to mess with, and he understood why.
The city of his father-in-law is still in his hands, but he just doesn't bother to attack it. Otherwise, he would have been defeated and lost the city long ago.
Even if the Chinese army had no intention of meeting him, Liu Cao was happy to pretend that he knew nothing and stayed quietly in the military camp, waiting for the arrival of the main force sent by the Western Shu Army or possibly the South Vietnamese Army.
Liu Cao was defeated and the Chinese army won. In this battle, more than 4,000 enemies were killed and more than 20,000 were captured.
The Dahua Army suffered zero losses. The soldiers who rushed out encountered no resistance at all. Wherever they went, the West Shu Army, which was shattered by the bombardment, surrendered early with their hands raised, and their weapons were thrown away.
When you get to the ground, put on a show of don't kill me, I surrender, and I'm obedient.
