Chapter 762 Ambush Battle in the Desolate Basin (2)
"Fire the cannon and give me a fucking blast!"
After squatting in this barren place for a day and a night, Liu Ziming had already suppressed his anger. Now that the fighting started, he became more energetic. When he saw the heavy-eating infantry being beaten, they were scurrying around in panic.
He became even more excited and roared at the top of his lungs.
"put!"
From the perspective of artillery tactics, it is not the best tactical choice when the enemy troops are defeated. If you really want to achieve great results, you have to wait for the enemy troops to form an attack. The problem is that Liu Ziming is the commander in chief. He has already
After giving the order, the artillery regiment commander Su Qingsheng, even though he was unwilling to accept it, did not dare to neglect it. He could only wave his hand vigorously and loudly issued the order for the bombardment.
"Boom, boom..."
After the general gave the order, the artillery of the Tang Army began to speak. First, the twelve infantry cannons lined up in front and back roared and smashed twelve exploding bombs into the fleeing Dashi infantry.
The ghosts cried and howled, and the three heavy cannons that fired afterwards accurately smashed the huge shells into the main formation of the Great Food Army, which was tensely arrayed. The poor officers and soldiers of the Great Food were all gathered together, and they were hit by three shells.
As soon as the giant bomb exploded, with no reckoning of casualties, the formation that had just begun to look like was instantly thrown into chaos.
"Assault, kill through the enemy formation!"
As soon as the Tang army's cannon fired, not only Huktu's headquarters and its main formation were in bad luck, but the cavalry troops on both wings who were fighting fiercely with the Tang cavalry also had a slight commotion. Although it was not big, for the Tang army
, but it was enough, but Li He roared, led his horse, and led his troops straight towards Esmil Weah Bayan like thunder.
"Go up, block, block!"
Esmir Weah Bayan is not a surprise general. When he was young, he could still fight. Now he is old and has long lost his courage. When he saw Li He, he rushed like a wolf and a tiger.
When he came over, he couldn't help but feel a little panic. He roared hurriedly, and the three generals who were guarding him galloped out on horseback and surrounded Li He.
"kill!"
Li He was one of the few generals in the Tang army. For him, killing a general in formation was as easy as picking something out of a bag. Even if the three generals were powerful, how could he take it to heart? He couldn't get close enough.
When the three enemy generals took action, Li He roared, raised his arm, and swung out his most powerful killing move "Domination of the World", but saw a sharp and unparalleled sword flash past, and instantly killed him.
The enemy general who rushed from the left chopped his men and horses into four pieces.
"Roar!"
"ha!"
Seeing that their colleague was instantly dead on the spot, the other two generals of Dashi were all furious. They each roared wildly, slashed with both swords, and swept towards Li He in a staggered up and down motion. They actually planned to take advantage of Li He before he could return his sword.
, killing Li He by surprise.
"court death!"
The two giant warriors struck very quickly. With their swords together, two rays of cold light swept towards Li He like thunder. One took the head and neck, the other took the waist and abdomen. The swords were fast and fierce, and the cooperation was extremely tacit.
, if it were anyone else, there would be no chance of escaping, but in Li He's eyes, it was nothing more than mediocre, and it was not really exquisite. But after hearing Li He roar, he spun around, and he was able to pass the person in front of him very easily.
The enemy slashed the knife to the head and neck, and he raised his arm. The already exhausted blade suddenly vibrated, and it was raised like a spiritual snake. In an instant, a bright sword light was transformed, and it was raised with incomparable accuracy.
The enemy on the right is slashing with the blade.
"when!"
After a crisp sound, the enemy general on the right felt his wrist go numb, and the sword he struck was bounced high by Li He. Before he could recover, he saw Li He twist his wrist, and the saber sank with a fierce force.
With a sudden pause, he swept the enemy's horse's head sideways.
"Pfft!"
Li He's sword actually didn't use much force, but the speed of the two horses charging at each other was extremely fast. The enemy general had no time to react at all, and watched helplessly as Li He's blade was cutting grass.
He cut off the horse's head, and then quickly attacked its waist and abdomen. He only had time to let out a horrified scream, and the man was cut into two pieces, one on the left and one on the right, falling into the dust from both sides of the horse's belly.
middle.
"oops!"
General Dashi, who was charging head-on, missed the target with his sword. He originally thought about using the sword again, but he didn't expect that in the flash of lightning, the last remaining comrade had died an untimely death. He immediately panicked.
Not daring to fight anymore, he screamed in surprise, kicked the horse in the belly, and planned to escape into the diagonal stab.
"Stay alive!"
When he saw that the enemy was about to flee, how could Li He give in? With a roar, he stretched his body, and with a flick of his free left hand, he grabbed the belt of the big food general like lightning. With just one tug, he was gone.
He tore him off the horse's back, and regardless of how the general was struggling with fists and kicks, he raised his hand and threw him into the air. With a flick of his right hand, a sword flashed past, killing the enemy general.
It was cut into two pieces in the air, and blood spurted out like a fountain, splashing half of Li He's body red. However, Li He didn't care at all. He pressed the horse's belly with his feet and flew towards the stunned Ace like a chicken.
Mir Weah Bayan rushed over.
"Retreat, retreat quickly!"
The three generals sent by Esmil Weah Bayan were already the most powerful warriors under his command, but they all died in Li He's hands before they even met each other.
Li He, who was bathed in blood, rushed over like a demon from hell. His courage to lead the personal guards to attack had completely disappeared. He did not dare to challenge Li He, and he did not care what the soldiers around him thought. He shouted.
With a sound, he led his horse, turned his head, and fled in the direction of his own formation. It didn't matter if he escaped like this, the already demoralized Dashi Cavalry completely fell into a state of collapse, and was overwhelmed by the surging attack.
Individuals killed by the Tang army were thrown off their backs, and the defeat was as irreversible as a landslide.
"Archers come forward! Throw!"
When Esmir Weah Bayan's troops were defeated, Mutuso on the right wing did not dare to fight anymore, and led the defeated army to flee back towards the main line in the same frenzy. This made Dashi's coach Muhan Ali?
Kenyon was extremely anxious, and it was not for any other reason than that the main formation of the Dashi Army was not yet fully formed. He had been beaten into chaos by a burst of artillery fire from the Tang Army. He had just moved his position and had not yet had time to perfect it. If he was really attacked by
Needless to say, the outcome of such a charge by the rebel army was inevitable. In view of this, Mohammad Ali Kenyon did not care whether he would accidentally injure his own retreating troops, and shouted an order to cover the shooting.
"Whizzing……"
A general's order is a general's order. Regardless of whether you can't bear it or not, it must be carried out. A group of giant archers fired their bows one after another. In an instant, thousands of arrows soared into the sky, flying through the air densely like locusts, with violent screams.
Deafening.
"Turn left!"
Under such violent fire from the Dashi Army, which did not distinguish between ourselves and the enemy, the Dashi Army was defeated with heavy casualties, but the leading troops of the Tang Army also suffered losses. What's more terrible is that the momentum of the pursuit was delayed.
A wild charge can only bring unnecessary losses. Naturally, Li He would not do such a stupid thing. Besides, the main purpose of the Tang army's ambush was of course to annihilate this large food army. This large food army can be used
The embarrassment to bait his main force is also one of the fundamental goals. At this time, there is no need to play a head-on game with the food army. Because of this, as soon as he realized that the fighter plane had been lost, Li He immediately led his troops to circle to the left.
At the same time, Wang Yu's troops were also making the same maneuver.
"Great Emir, we can't go on like this. The main force of the Tang Army is concentrated here. They plan to defeat our army first. Now the terrain is unfavorable, so we must break through quickly!"
The three armies sent out all retreated in defeat. In just over half an hour, they had already lost nearly 10,000 troops. Even though the generals nearby were frightened, they did not dare to speak casually, but Esmil Weah Bayan
But he didn't have so many scruples. After hurriedly reorganizing the defeated army, he immediately galloped to the center of the army. He didn't even have time to take a breath, and hurriedly spoke out his advice.
"Um."
Muhammad Ali Kenyon was leaning in front of a large map. Although he heard Esmir Weah Bayan's advice, he didn't express much, he just gave a noncommittal murmur.
, but his eyes were always fixed on the map.
When he saw that Mohan Ali Kenyon ignored his suggestion, Esmir Weah Bayan became anxious, but he did not dare to speak casually again, so he hinted at Mutuso with his eyes.
"Father, it's still some time before dark. If we don't leave early, once night falls, our army will be trapped in this place. How can we defend it? If we don't leave, it will be too late! Father..."
Mutuso was the eldest son of Muhan Ali Kenyon and the son-in-law of Esmir Weah Bayan. He had the most special status among the generals and had always been favored by his father. At this time, he met his father-in-law.
He cast a look for help, but did not refuse. After silently nodding his head, he strode to Mohan Ali Kenyon's side and spoke an urgent word of advice.
"shut up!"
Muhan Ali Kenyon went against his usual love for Mutuso. He shouted and interrupted Mutuso's words. Then he looked around at the generals around him, pursed his dry lips, and said coldly.
He opened his mouth and said: "The Tang army deliberately ambushed our army here with sinister intentions. Now there are soldiers blocking the entrance, and there must be ambushes at the exit. If our army breaks through blindly, it will undoubtedly fall into the trap of the Tang army. There is no need to mention the idea of breaking out again.
Anyone who dares to disobey will be killed without mercy!"
"yes!"
Seeing the ferocious look on Muhan Ali Kenyon's face, the generals had many doubts in their hearts, but they did not dare to express them on the spot. They could only keep their promises.
"You don't have to worry too much. Although our army has been defeated for a while, its foundation is still there. Although the Tang army is elite, it is small. It is not easy to defeat our army head-on. To be honest with you, I have sent a message to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. As long as we
If the army can hold on here for a day and a half, it can turn passivity into an active one. At that time, the ones who will run around in panic are the Tang bandits. With a hundred thousand people, I can't hold it for a day and a half, right?"
Muhammad Ali Kenyon was a veteran general, and he knew that it was difficult to convince the crowd with coercion alone. After the generals agreed, he immediately laughed and spoke impassionedly.
When he came out, the faces of the generals on the left and right showed expressions of surprise and surprise...
