The Reborn Lao Tzu Is the Emperor

Chapter 978 War Escalation ([-])

Rao was close to the big banner at the moment, but the true martial artist didn't dare to continue to rush forward.

He drew back and flew back, and jumped into the crowd in a blink of an eye.

Another shot.

A cavalry soldier of the Yuan army was shot and fell off his horse.

At this moment, perhaps this true martial arts enshrined is somewhat fortunate in his heart.If a dead fellow Taoist does not die, a poor Taoist, he is not dead after all.

Just looking at these Song troops approaching menacingly, this master of real martial arts dare not just retreat like this.Even if he doesn't understand military affairs, he understands that if he withdraws, these Song troops will inevitably go straight to the Chinese army.

In this extremely contradictory mood, he was just wandering in the army.Never dared to come out again.

But relying on more than a thousand Baharal's personal guards alone, they couldn't stop the God of War group.

Under the leadership of Bai Yingwei, the soldiers of the God of War regiment defeated the cavalry of the Yuan army in less than 10 minutes.

Less than half of the remaining bodyguards ran to the back in panic.

Seeing that the general situation was over, the true martial arts priest naturally retreated with the army.

Bai Yingwei's eyes burst out with brilliance, and he just raised his gun and shouted: "Kill! Kill!"

There was continuous gunfire.

In front of them, cavalrymen of the Yuan army were constantly shot and fell off their horses.

Although there are less than a thousand people in the God of War group, they are invincible at this moment.

Yuan army in the army.

Baharal frowned again when he saw the guards collapsed.

He never imagined that even though they sent a few masters there, not only did they fail to defeat the Song army, they were actually defeated by the Song army.

How powerful are these Song troops?
Baharal was originally a very confident man, but at this moment, his eyes were a little dazed.

He asked himself, even if he gave himself another ten years, or even decades, he might not be able to train an army like the Imperial Guards of the Song Dynasty.

This has nothing to do with whether the soldiers are elite or not, but that the dragon guns in the Song army are already an insurmountable gap for them.

Baharal also imagined that the failure of several masters to worship must have been restrained by the Shenlong Gun and Thunderbolt of the Song Army.

Otherwise, no matter how elite the Song army is trained, it is impossible for them to be opponents of two true martial arts masters and a few Shangyuan masters.

"Ugh……"

Baharal couldn't help sighing slightly when he thought that Chaozhong hadn't been able to manufacture such a thing as the Shenlong Gun.

Immediately, he pointed to Bai Yingwei's God of War group, and said, "Bombard them with artillery carts!"

Alif beside him hurried down to deliver the order.

In the large array of artillery-throwing vehicles of the Yuan army, some artillery-throwing vehicles turned slightly, aiming at the God of War group that was galloping towards the defeated army.

"put!"

With the loud roar, thunderbolts were thrown high into the sky.

These dark thunderbolts streaked across the rain curtain and fell to the ground, and clusters of mud crumbs exploded in the light of the fire.

All the soldiers of the retreating Yuan army and the pursuing God of War regiment were obliterated in the explosion.

But the big flag of the God of War Group is still rushing forward.

The soldiers of the Ares Regiment continued to move forward despite the artillery fire.

Baharal gave another order, and behind him, soldiers rushed in front of him.The shield soldiers put up their big shields and stood ready.

But as the God of War group approached, some of these shield soldiers groaned in pain and fell down.

Their shields cannot stop the power of the Shenlong gun.These shield soldiers who fell to the ground were shot through with their shields.

This made many Yuan soldiers look nervous.

In this era, the Shenlong Gun can be said to take human life invisible, and it is definitely a terrifying killing weapon.

If it weren't for the fact that the Yuan army, Dali, Xinsong and other armies always had a huge advantage in strength when they competed with the Song army, they would have been beaten back to the country long ago.

The Yuan army in front of them also relied on the large number of people, so that they were not frightened by the shooting of the God of War regiment and collapsed directly.

When the Baiyingwei God of War Group was still tens of meters away from them, the archers of the Yuan army also fired arrows.

The dense rain of arrows shot into the rain curtain.

In an instant, there was a constant clanging sound in the God of War group.

These arrows landed on the armor of the soldiers in the regiment, but did not cause much damage to them.But some arrows shot the horse to death, causing the soldiers who were on the horse to fall off the horse.

It is undoubtedly very likely to be fatal in the case of a cavalry charge.

But soon, Bai Yingwei led the soldiers and rushed to the front of the Yuan army's central army formation.

Facing the thousands of yuan army, they all screamed and drove their horses straight to the shield soldiers of the yuan army in the front line.

The horse and the shield collided and clanged.

Some war horses jumped directly over the shield and rushed into the crowd.

There are also horses blocked by shields, and then pikemen behind the shieldmen poke bloody wounds with spears.The soldiers immediately rolled into the crowd.

The front ranks of the Yuan army were in chaos in an instant.

This point fell into the eyes of Baharal, Alaifu and others behind, and was vaguely seen by Wen Tianxiang and others at the top of the city.

Wen Tianxiang said: "This Chen Diaoyan is really too bold!"

It's just that the anger is no longer as strong as before.

If Bai Yingwei could really destroy this Yuan army's central army, it would indeed be a very refreshing thing for the soldiers of the Great Song Dynasty.

He Chenghua just smiled at the side and didn't speak.

In the army, Alef said to Baharal a little nervously: "Commander, do you want to avoid it now?"

"avoid?"

Baharal said in a deep voice: "As the commander-in-chief of the three armies, where should I hide?"

He also has his pride.

The army was fighting, and since he, the commander, went to the battlefield in person, he never thought of avoiding it.Unless the army is completely exhausted.

Alefu showed some anxiety, but he didn't know what to say.

He knew Baharal's temperament well.This former fierce tiger on the grassland has his persistence.

Even he, Alaifu, didn't he ever think about withdrawing when the army showed signs of decline?
The fighting became more and more intense.

The brave and unstoppable Baiyingwei God of War regiment gradually broke through the defense of the Yuan army's top soldiers and rushed towards the army.

Later, Zang Bohou led the iron cavalry and was able to cross into the battlefield.They abruptly separated the cavalry of the two armies.

Then a general beside Zang Bohou led dozens of soldiers and ran towards the cavalry of the Tiansha army, looking for the location of the big banner.

Zang Bohou led his army to continue to rush westward, intending to completely stop the fighting between the two armies.

The sound of guns and artillery in the army is endless.

Soldiers on both sides are dying in battle all the time.

The heavy rain continued, and corpses littered the fields.

War is so cruel.

Chen Diaoyan led the infantry and still stood still, but used a ring formation to resist the Yuan army on the periphery.

With the fighting power of the Great Song Imperial Army, even if Guang Xingwen led the army to arrive, it would undoubtedly be quite difficult to break through their formation.

Up to now, their strength is only four times that of the Heavenly Killing Army.This is far from enough to crush the Great Song Forbidden Army.

Now it's just a matter of who can last longer.

After a while, the general of the Tiansu army who went to look for the iron cavalry banner finally arrived in front of the big banner.

Guangyang Yan, the head of Chen Diaoyan's First Heavy Cavalry Regiment, was just under the banner.

Since he served under Wen Tianxiang's command at the same time, the cavalry general of the Tiansu Army naturally knew Guangyang Yan.

He stopped in front of Guangyangyan under Guangyangyan's surprised eyes, and hurriedly said: "Commander Guang, the marshal asked you to lead the army back to the city!"

Guangyang Yan looked at the torrent of cavalry Zang Bohou crossed in front of him, and then looked back at the top of the city, but said: "But the commander hasn't given the order yet!"

The general of the Tiansu Army named Ren Yongyuan showed anger when he heard the words, "Are you still planning to continue to disobey orders? Do you know that the Yuan army has already rushed here?"

Guangyang Yan showed signs of struggle.

Ren Yongyuan said again: "If we don't withdraw our army, even we will be besieged here by the Yuan army. No one can afford this responsibility at that time!"

"That……"

Guangyang Yan hesitated slightly, and finally shouted in a deep voice: "Withdraw!"

Wen Tianxiang still has great dignity in the army, even if Yongyuan said these words, he didn't care that Chen Diaoyan hadn't given the order yet.

After all, Chen Diaoyan in the army must not be as thorough as Wen Tianxiang in the city for the whole battle situation.

Meng Shi, who was carrying a big flag, turned his horse's head.

Guangyang Yan led his army to charge back.

When the other banners in the army saw the big flag backwards, they quickly followed suit.

Ren Yongyuan finally heaved a sigh of relief, patted his horse and headed west, joining Zang Bohou's army again.

The battlefield where the cavalry of the two armies fought was gradually cut off.

When Zang Bohou's iron cavalry passed through, the Yuan army's iron cavalry saw Guangyang Yan and other troops retreating, they were only slightly stunned, and then they patted their horses and chased after them.

No matter what the reason was, seeing the Song army retreating now did boost their morale a lot.

However, those Yuan army infantry who were besieging Chen Diaoyan's circular formation panicked a little when they saw the Song army cavalry rushing towards them suddenly.
