Chapter 737 It's not that the Northern Black Army is incompetent
The smoke and dust caused by the sky thunder made it impossible for Xie Bai to see clearly the situation of his vanguard army. He was simply anxious, so he might as well lead his troops to charge in. He had been trapped for so many days and had eaten all the dry food. Even if the front was a mountain of swords and a sea of fire, this time
Sometimes there is only one fight.
He led 7,000 Northern Black Cavalry through the Tianlei bombardment zone, leaving a disgraced man with a disgraced face, but before he could flick the dust off his body, what he saw was the scene of Iron Shell killing his soldiers.
The 10,000 Northern Black Army was Xie Bai's fortune that he had saved little by little over nearly ten years. It is not an exaggeration to say that it cost him his life.
Normally, if dozens or hundreds of people were lost in a battle, one would feel distressed for several days. Now, seeing thousands of people die in a battle, how could one not be angry.
With angry eyes, Xie Bai's eyes fell on the nearest iron shell, and he let out a loud roar. Holding an iron gun in his hand, he stepped off his horse and ran straight towards the iron shell.
.
Thanks to his own success, Xie Bai's ability goes without saying, and it is not an exaggeration to say he is a strong general.
He was so angry that when he came to an iron-clad car, the spear in his hand was pointed directly at Huanglong, and he fired a shot into the iron eyes that exposed the arrows and crossbows.
Its speed, ferocity, and accuracy left the Jizhou Army soldiers inside the iron shell completely defenseless.
A shot was fired, and a scream came from the Jizhou chariot soldier who was looking for the target. The shot actually penetrated his chest, bringing out a large amount of blood.
There was blood flowing out of the gun head. Xie Bai took advantage of the situation and the iron eye was enlarged a bit, so that he could finally see clearly that a Jizhou Army soldier inside the shell was staring at the big panicked eyes, with a look of death.
"Close the arrow door quickly." The soldiers around him realized that something was wrong and shouted repeatedly. At that moment, Tieqiaizi closed his eyes and became as quiet as before.
"Hmph." Xie Bai was a little angry that Tie Kezi reacted so quickly and interrupted his continued strangulation. He tried to slap the iron gun on the iron case a few times, but it did not cause any damage.
, so he had to turn around and walk towards the other iron shells.
Arrows rained like a net, and Xie Bai's actions were seen by other tanks, and he immediately became a key target of attack.
The iron gun in his hand rolled up and down, knocking down the arrows one after another under the horse. Xie Bai once again came to the front of another iron-cased car. But there was still no chance. Obviously, his previous bravery was defeated.
The soldiers of the chariot battalion saw this and closed the arrow gate earlier.
"Ahhhhh!"
Xie Bai, who finally rushed over, saw that there was no chance again. In anger, he inserted the iron gun under the iron shell. Then the muscles on his arms bulged. He actually wanted to overturn it with a known force.
Iron shell.
His face was red, his eyes were bloodshot, and he had exhausted all his strength, but the iron shell was still not moving at all. Of course, if Xie Bai knew that each iron shell contained at least fifty Jizhou Army soldiers, he would probably
If it were him, he wouldn't do such useless work.
"Kill!" From the rear of the battlefield, after the 10,000 Northern Black Army cavalry rushed out, Helianlin led 15,000 Helian family warriors and rushed into the battlefield through the two-mile sky minefield.
Normally, faced with the power of the thunder, the Helian warriors might not have the courage to actually charge forward. But now, with no way out, they had no choice but to charge forward.
When I really rushed over, I realized that I had only lost hundreds of horses, and I realized that the power of the sky thunder was nothing more than that.
While Helianlin breathed a sigh of relief, his expression immediately became tense again. Everything that happened before his eyes was completely different from what he had imagined.
He originally thought that after passing through the sky mine area, he had passed through the most dangerous area. Next, he would see the scene of the Northern Black Army cavalry and the Jizhou Army strangled together. As he brought more than 10,000 cavalry,
The arrival of the enemy will definitely influence the battlefield and lead to victory.
But what I see now is that countless war horses are parked on the battlefield. There are no cavalry warriors on them. Instead, there are corpses and blood on the ground, which represents the cruelty of this battle.
Every battle is tragic, but the problem is that the fallen soldiers were all in uniforms of the Northern Heilongjiang Army. A closer look did not reveal a Jizhou Army soldier. This... what do you mean by this? Could it be that the Northern Heilongjiang Army
Is it possible that the army is so incompetent?
Before Helianlin could think clearly, the reality that happened next told him the answer. When attacking from the front, he encountered giant repeating crossbows one after another. When walking from both sides, he had to face the dense concentration of tanks.
When the crossbows attacked, he realized that it was not that the Beihei Army was incompetent, but that the Jizhou Army was actually too powerful.
The tight defensive formation has been tested countless times, which shows the powerful power of the formation.
Although it is not invulnerable, it is definitely not easy to deal with. Once it is done, it is completely possible to leave 70 to 80% of the enemy's strength. Not to mention the Northern Black Army and Helian soldiers who are not equipped with chainmail.
It was a Mountain-Shaking Guard equipped with a battle armor. If faced with such a defense, it would be impossible to rush over in all likelihood.
In this case, Helian's more than 10,000 soldiers and brave soldiers will naturally not get any benefits. It seems that wherever they rush towards, they are facing mountains of swords and seas of fire, and they are in desperate situations.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh...
Large crossbows and small company crossbows were fired continuously, and the more than 10,000 company cavalrymen were as helpless as ants pressed by stones. Some of them only suffered a large number of casualties as time passed.
Unable to give full play to the advantages of the cavalry, they could not even touch the opponent's face, and their numbers were rapidly decreasing at a rate of dozens or dozens of casualties at every breath. How could this battle be fought?
This lasted for a full quarter of an hour, and thousands of enemy cavalry fell on the battlefield. Normally for the cavalry, a distance that could be said to pass in an instant became a line of life and death, which was incomprehensible.
It can't be crossed anymore.
"Master, can we launch a counterattack?" Feng Xun was already gearing up and was a little impatient.
"Waiting for a while, the opponent's morale has not collapsed." Tang Ao said calmly. It was true that he took a fancy to these Northern Black Cavalry, even the Helian Cavalry was also very brave. But this did not mean that he wanted to
To recruit these people, we are willing to pay the price of our own cavalry.
Save yourself and destroy the enemy. The prerequisite is to save yourself.
Tang Ao was not in a hurry, and Feng Xun naturally couldn't say anything. He just stared at the battlefield nervously, preparing to charge at any time.
Behind the Jizhou Army camp, all the infantry saw everything, including hundreds of thousands of Korean prisoners.
I originally thought that this would be a fierce fight. There are nearly 30,000 cavalry, and they are still elite cavalry. If their opponent is the previous Goryeo, I am afraid it will also be a huge headache.
In order to deal with these nearly 30,000 cavalry, I am afraid that even if Goryeo can win, it will be a miserable victory. Even if the infantry casualties are 100,000 or more, it is possible. But now, in front of the Jizhou Army, it seems that it has A soldier from the chariot battalion must have died. Thinking about this result makes one's hair stand on end. This... This Jizhou Army is too strong. Who else can be its opponent?
The soldiers sighed one after another. When their eyes fell on King Ji's five-clawed golden dragon flag in the central camp tent, they felt nothing but admiration.
Tang Ao, who was admired by everyone, did not have any arrogance. There were too many factors to win this battle.
It is important to get the news in advance.
It is also important to prepare several months in advance.
In addition, they choose the battlefield and plan everything. The heavy rain last night also helped a lot.
If coupled with the advancement of technology and weapons, it is not surprising that we will have the result before us.
On the other hand, what if we didn't get the news and didn't make any preparations? If the Beihei Army and the Helian soldiers entered Jizhou bravely, I'm afraid it would be a different situation.
No wonder Daqian didn't have the idea to attack Beidi when they were strong. Apart from the fact that the opponent's land was barren and would be no different to occupy, I'm afraid they knew their combat power and how difficult it was.
This is just a Helian family. Tang Ao was a little lucky. He was so lucky to have captured Shile City before. If Beidi had been given time to prepare, he would have been the only loser.
In a flash of thought, the situation on the battlefield has basically come to an end. Of the 10,000 Northern Black Army, less than 3,000 can ride on war horses, and only 15,000 Helian cavalry can ride on horses. It's just five thousand.
With such huge losses, they also passed the chariot camp and finally arrived in front of the Jizhou Army's formation.
"Feng Xun, gather superior forces to deal with the Northern Black Army first. Xing Si, protect the formation of the Chinese army and don't let the enemy's cavalry come in." In just a moment, Tang Ao made a countermeasure, and then he kicked his legs With a pinch, the snow-stepping jade white dragon jumped out of the team and rushed straight to the battlefield to kill.
Xie Bai's bravery was noticed by Tang Ao, which made him feel itchy. How could it be reasonable to meet such a brave general?
"Master, leave that Xie Bai to the general." Feng Xun also ran out at this moment and said as if asking for instructions when he came to Tang Ao.
"You are no match for him." A casual explanation left Feng Xun speechless. What was great about him was his ability to command cavalry, rather than fighting alone. Tang Ao's words were not wrong.
Tang Ao, who spoke, had already rushed out from the tens of thousands of troops, and was still the first to bear the brunt. The sky was eight feet long and pointed directly at the place where Xie Bai was.
Different from others, Tang Ao is wearing a golden armor. His identity as the fourth prince, Prince Ji, makes him extremely eye-catching wherever he goes. It was also like this at this time. As soon as he rushed towards him, he attracted the enemy. attention and surveillance.
The two cavalrymen of the Northern Black Army who were relatively close to each other saw the golden-armored Tang Ao approaching from far away, their eyes full of surprise. They rushed forward with a shout.
As if they had cooperated many times, the two cavalrymen separated from each other and attacked the place where Tang Ao was. This scene was noticed by the five hundred Han generals who came from behind, and the voices of shouting caution could be heard all the time.
