Monument Yangmen

Chapter 741 Gambling!

"This……"

Yang San, Yang Wu and others went 'this, this, this' for a long time, but couldn't say a word.

Hundreds of fire-breathing giant steel beasts disrupted one hundred thousand soldiers and horses of the Liao Kingdom at once.

This completely subverted their cognition.

I have fought all my life, but I have never encountered such a weapon of war that is comparable to the magic weapon of an immortal.

There were hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses in the Liao Kingdom fighting with hundreds of statues.

What if there are one hundred thousand statues?
Isn't that invincible?
"terrible……"

Shocked, Jiao Zan roared tremblingly.

He clearly felt that his [-]-jin meat could be turned into dumpling stuffing in an instant after being bombarded.

Everyone nodded in unison, and then looked at Yang Qi.

Yang Qi stared at the chaotic soldiers and horses of the Liao army, and seemed to feel the eyes of everyone, and said lightly, "Cannon, the king of war..."

No superfluous explanation.

It just told them what this giant steel beast was.

Even so, Yang San, Yang Wu and others immediately recognized the status of the king of artillery warfare.

Of course, Yang Qi didn't know that they wanted one hundred thousand cannons in their hearts.

Otherwise, he would not be so calm.

From the beginning of the secret development of the artillery to the normal use on the battlefield, it took several years and cost tens of thousands of manpower.

The most important thing is the consumption of copper and iron, countless.

Because of this, Cao Bin almost fought Yang Qi desperately.

If he really wanted to get [-] cannons, Yang Qi estimated that he would search for all the bronze objects in the Song Dynasty, Daliao Dynasty, Nanguo, and Dali, and even learn from Cao Cao and become a master of tomb robbers.

The war continues.

The artillery fired three rounds in a row, completely disrupting the charge of the Liao army.

Yang Qi ordered in a cold voice, "Shenji Battalion and Zhentian Battalion are in charge, Iron Cavalry Army and Longyou Army charge."

"what?"

Everyone was still immersed in the terrible power of the artillery.

Hearing Yang Qi's order, he was obviously taken aback.

Yang Qi's face darkened, and he repeated angrily: "Charge!"

Yang San and Yang Wu reacted immediately.

Immediately raised the spear, Gao Han said, "Kill!"

The guns were still whistling.

The arrows of the archers of the Shenji Camp fell like a curtain of arrows.

The steel jungle of heavy armored cavalry rushed out clamoring.

The Liao army had already lost its fighting spirit in the chaos.

Facing the tyrannical heavy cavalry, they could only be massacred one-sidedly.

In the Liao army camp.

Brother Yeluxiu was still in a daze.

Empress Dowager Xiao was too shocked to speak.

"Gudu~"

Brother Yeluxiu swallowed a mouthful of saliva, his eyes were red, he stared at the front of the copper platform, and shouted: "Why? Why?"

Why can Yang Qi always come up with new things?
Why can Yang Qi always come up with such unimaginable things that can change the direction of the war at will.

Whether it's gunpowder or the giant steel monster that appears now, Brother Yeluxiu can't understand it.

Especially artillery.

Brother Yeluxiu has never seen this kind of thing in books.

It just happened to appear on the battlefield majestically.

With the emergence of artillery, the direction and situation of the battlefield have changed beyond recognition.

It has completely surpassed Brother Yeluxiu's understanding of war.

Even though he had thousands of plans in his mind, it seemed that he was no match for Yang Qi's men's thunder.

He was not reconciled.

He felt that Yang Qi was his old enemy sent down by God.

He felt that God favored Yang Qi and gave Yang Qi all good things.

"Ugh..."

Brother Yeluxiu snorted lightly, his face flushed.

Empress Dowager Xiao trembled all over, and asked Brother Yeluxiu in a deep voice, "This...what should I do, brother?"

Obviously, Empress Dowager Xiao was quite frightened.

"Pfft~"

Brother Yeluxiu couldn't hold back anymore, a mouthful of reverse blood spewed out from the corner of his mouth.

"Brother!"

Empress Dowager Xiao rushed to Brother Yeluxiu in a panic.

Brother Yeluxiu swallowed the blood in his mouth, quickly wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and said with a stern expression: "It's okay..."

After a brief collapse, Brother Yeluxiu regained the majesty of his Liao Kingdom over Yue.

After all, he has been on the battlefield for a long time, has rich experience in the battlefield, and knows how to adjust his mood.

In fact, not only his soldiers and horses are arrogant, but he himself is somewhat arrogant because he has been in a crushing state because he has been fighting against the Song Dynasty for a long time.

Now that he himself encountered such an unprecedented crushing situation, he naturally couldn't accept it.

"Ming Jin withdraws troops!"

After Yeluxiu stabilized his mind, he immediately gave the order to withdraw the troops.

In fact, without his order to withdraw the troops, those Liao soldiers who were slashed and killed outside Tongtai Pass also started to run away.

There were [-] Liao soldiers and horses who went to attack Tongtaiguan, but less than [-] escaped.

Whether it was artillery, bows and crossbows from Shenji Battalion, or heavy armored cavalry, they hardly had the conditions to take prisoners.

The leather armor of the Liao army can easily pass through in front of their armor.

Of course, the lethality of Yang Qi's troops is still limited.

After all, the war did not last long.

More Liao troops were trampled to death by horses.

Brother Yeluxiu gathered his soldiers and horses and stood guard in the camp.

In his barracks, there are tens of thousands of horses.

Brother Yeluxiu felt that Yang Qi showed the help of divine soldiers, and it was impossible to start a war with hundreds of thousands of troops at the same time.

In front of Tongtai Pass.

The heavy armored cavalry who charged back and forth returned to Tongtai Pass, and spread their arms out of breath.

The reservists and servants rushed forward quickly, helped them remove their armor, handed them water, rubbed their shoulders, beat their legs, and massaged them.

Heavy armored cavalry is tough on the battlefield.

But they are also flawed.

Because they were carrying heavy armor, and the horses ran on the battlefield with nearly three hundred catties on their backs. After half an hour of charging and fighting, they would lose their strength and need to rest.

This defect is almost irreversible.

If you still fight reluctantly after losing your strength, the biggest possibility in the end is to be exhausted to death.

Yang San and Yang Wu took off their heavy armors, wrapped them in blankets, and approached Yang Qi.

"Seventh brother, the Liao people were defeated and they didn't retreat. Brother Yeluxiu expected that we wouldn't dare to fight against their 10-strong camp!"

The reason why Yang San and Yang Wu were wrapped in blankets was also Yang Qi's strict order.

After a fierce battle, sweating all over, he took off his armor suddenly. Although the cold wind blows, although it is cool, there is a great chance that it will cause a 'armour removal wind'.

The wind of removing armor, as the name suggests, means that after a fierce battle, the armor is removed, and the wind blows and gets sick.

The common saying is the disease of 'stroke'.

There are many famous generals who died in the wind of disarming armor in history, the most famous ones are Li Cunxiao of the Five Dynasties and Chang Yuchun of the Ming Dynasty.

It was precisely because Yang Qi knew about this that he strictly ordered that after removing his armor, he must be wrapped in a blanket.

Yang San nodded and said: "Looking at Brother Yeluxiu's intentions, before he thinks of a way to deal with the artillery, he will definitely only defend and not attack. Seventh brother, what should we do next?"

Yang Qi smiled and said: "He thinks we dare not attack, so let's show him."

"Send the order, the whole army rests. Half an hour later, the whole army marches."

In the Liao army camp.

Brother Yeluxiu didn't know at all that Yang Qi was not afraid of his hundreds of thousands of troops, and had already decided to attack the Liao camp.

When Yang Qi ordered the whole army to rest, he was hastily dispatching troops to garrison the camp.

Time is like running water, half an hour is fleeting.

The heavy armored cavalry under Yang Qi's command put on their armor again and went into battle.

"fierce!"

"fierce!"

"..."

Tens of thousands of troops under Yang Qi's command marched towards the Liao army camp in unison.

They have slogans in their mouths and are full of fighting spirit.

Brother Yeluxiu, who heard the voice, rushed out of the tent, and saw Yang Qi's soldiers and horses approaching in black, his face was livid.

"How dare he..."

Brother Yeluxiu clenched his fists and shouted angrily: "The whole army is ready for war!"

Brother Yeluxiu rode his horse and rushed to the front of the two armies, staring at Yang Qi and shouting, "Yang Yansi, are you really going to fight me to the death?"

Yang Qi said calmly: "I only need Yanyun Sixteen States, give me Yanyun Sixteen States, and I will let you go."

"Insanity!"

Brother Yeluxiu roared angrily: "This king has tens of thousands of troops under his command, which is several times the number of troops under your command. Even if you have evil spirits to help you, if you don't care about casualties, this king can still defeat you."

Yang Qi didn't pay attention to Brother Yeluxiu, but turned around and asked the soldiers behind him, "The king of the Southern Court of Liao Kingdom said that they have hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses, which are several times that of ours. If you fight hard, you can defeat us. What are you?" mean?"

"war!"

"war!"

"war!"

"..."

Yang Qilang laughed and said: "The general is not afraid of death, the soldier is not hesitating. Why should I, Yang Yansi, be afraid of him?"

"Brother Yeluxiu, if you have the guts, then let your horse come over without threatening."

Brother Yeluxiu growled with a gloomy expression, "You madman..."

Brother Yeluxiu turned around and shouted to the Liao army soldiers behind him: "Soldiers, we Liao people have never been afraid of fighting, let alone bow their heads in front of the enemy."

"war!"

"put!"

"Oh!"

"Bang bang bang..."

"Whoosh!"

"..."

The war started again.

The artillery exploded again, setting off waves of soil one after another in the Liao army's barracks.

Although the Liao people did not have such sharp weapons as artillery, they still had bows and crossbows.

All kinds of crossbow arrows were shot at the soldiers and horses under Yang Qi's command.

"Brush~"

The soldiers of the heavy cavalry took off their visors and rushed into the Liao army camp.

The Reserve Cavalry Army, the Servant Army of the Longyou Army, and the Yanmen Army also joined the battle.

The war is really as Yang Qi said.

The generals under his command are not afraid of death, and the soldiers do not hesitate to die.

The soldiers and horses under Yang Qi's command who rushed out were completely fighting the Liao people.

The soldiers of the Iron Cavalry Army were carefully selected one by one, and each of them had a hundred lives in their hands, and none of them were good.

The soldiers of the Longyou Army were either avengers or naturalized savages in the mountains, and none of them were kind.

pity?

Cherishing one's life is a luxury for them.

If they spared their lives, they would have been dead for many years.

The reason why they can survive until now is that they survived adventure after adventure.

"kill!"

The sound of shouting and killing resounded throughout the world.

On this battlefield, artillery is an unsolvable life harvester.

Every time a cannon falls, it will always take the lives of dozens of Liao troops.

The heavy cavalry is like a group of rampant iron bumps, and their way of killing the enemy is simple and brutal.

In addition to rushing, it is rushing.

Some Liao soldiers who stood in front of them didn't need them to swing their knives at all, and the armored horses under their crotches could run over them and kill them.

Of course, the soldiers and horses under Yang Qi's command are not all invincible.

For example, the cavalry army reserve, the Longyou army servants, and the Yanmen army, the three soldiers and horses participating in the battle, in this battle like a meat grinder, are shrinking at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The strength of both sides is decreasing rapidly.

Due to the original artillery and the rampage of the heavy cavalry, it was difficult for Brother Yeluxiu to organize an effective formation against the enemy.

As soon as a large army formation is formed, it will be severely hit by artillery.

This also led to the drastic reduction of the Liao army under Yeluxiu's command, which was far faster than the soldiers and horses under Yang Qi's command.

Often, if 100 soldiers and horses under Yang Qi's command died, the Liao people would have to pay the price of thousands of lives.

The proportion of battle damage is too large.

Brother Yeluxiu who beat him was terrified.

Brother Yeluxiu looked at the fallen Liao army in pieces, and growled in a low voice, "Send the order to withdraw the troops!"

He had to withdraw.

It's not because he exhausted the soldiers and horses under Yang Qi's command.

As long as he is willing to spend it all the time, he will definitely kill the troops under Yang Qi's command.

This is beyond doubt.

After all, where is the advantage of numbers?

Cannons are sharp, but with hundreds of cannons, it is impossible to truly control a war of 10 people.

Once Yang Qi's troops lose too much, it will be impossible to organize into a powerful formation to attack the Liao army, and the Liao army can take advantage of the situation to counterattack and turn defeat into victory.

However, Brother Yeluxiu didn't dare to spend it.

The hundreds of thousands of Liao troops here are the elite of the Liao army, not the Han people in the Liao land.

Once hundreds of thousands of Liao troops were exhausted here.

It is very likely that the Liao Kingdom will follow in the footsteps of the Great Song Dynasty and become a meat at the mercy of others.

And the person who slaughtered them was probably Yang Qi.

Yang Qi dispatched more than 40 troops to attack the Liao Kingdom this time.

There are only more than 30 troops here, and [-] soldiers and horses are scattered out.

And if Brother Yeluxiu paid more than half of the price and consumed the tens of thousands of Yang Qi's men, he could win for a while, but Yang Qi might be able to suppress and fight the war after that.

Brother Yeluxiu can be sure that once he decides to hang out with Yang Qi.

Then Yang Qi will definitely lead some people back after the war, and then gather the remaining 30 soldiers and horses, chasing them hard.

By that time, not only will Yanyun sixteen prefectures be in danger, but going to the capital may also be in danger.

Yang Qi probably expected this, so he dared to bet so desperately with Brother Yeluxiu.

"Woooooooo..."

The horn for withdrawal sounded.

The Liao army, which was fighting fiercely, breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.

They got on their horses and withdrew with the brigade without saying a word.

The heavy armored cavalry chased after them for a while, and finally stopped when they were exhausted.

In terms of charge, ten light cavalry are not as good as one heavy cavalry; in terms of speed, ten heavy cavalry are not as good as one light cavalry.

The Liao army is all light cavalry, but Yang Qi currently only has heavy armored cavalry and infantry under his command, and he can't catch up with the fleeing Liao army.

Yang Qi sat on the horseback, looked around, saw that the Liao army had run away, and he breathed a sigh of relief.

In fact, he was betting just now that Brother Yeluxiu would definitely withdraw his troops if he didn't dare to fight him head-on. That's why he attacked without hesitation.

If Brother Yeluxiu gritted his teeth and got hot-headed, he insisted on fighting him head-on.

Yang Qi would definitely not say a word, and lead his troops back to Tongtai Pass.

With the shield of the city wall of Tongtai Pass and the cannon, Brother Yeluxiu will definitely not be able to take Tongtai Pass.

From the beginning to the end, Yang Qi's hard work and hard work were all just pretending.

He won't really spend it with Brother Yeluxiu.

All the heavy cavalry and gunners under his command were paid for by him at a high price.

He wouldn't be so stupid as to fight Yeluxiu.

Too bad!

If one method fails, another method can be used.

In war we must be flexible.

Definitely not doing it.

Fortunately, Yang Qi made the right bet, so he didn't have to think of other ways.
