Daming: Apocalypse of Longevity

Chapter 165
However, what surprised everyone was that although the flying arrow penetrated Zhu Tianqi's armor, it did not pierce Zhu Tianqi's body. Instead, it fell to the ground as if it had been shot on a solid iron plate!

This shocked everyone present, including the archery masters, because generally speaking, even if the emperor wore soft armor inside, the arrows would not be able to penetrate, but the soft armor was close to the body and had a direct gap with the armor. After this arrow shot through the armor, it couldn't penetrate the soft armor inside, it should stick to the armor.

But looking at the current situation, it seems that the emperor is wearing an extremely thick iron armor, which is so thick that there is no gap between it and the armor, so that the arrow can only shoot through the surface layer of armor. The iron plate is generally bounced off.

It's true that the emperor's body type requires a layer of iron armor that is thick enough to leave no gaps inside the armor. How thick should the armor be?Could it be that the emperor was born with no supernatural powers and could still move freely in such a heavy armor?

As the person involved, Zhu Tianqi didn't think so much. He was suddenly shot by an arrow, which made him break out in a cold sweat. Fortunately, the body armor he wore was strong enough, let alone being shot through by the arrow. , he didn’t even feel very clearly about being shot.

So after coming back to his senses, Zhu Tianqi deliberately shouted loudly: "I am the emperor, and I am protected by the gods. However, mere cold arrows still want to hurt me. I advise you not to waste your efforts!"

It has to be said that in this era and under such circumstances, the words Zhu Tianqi shouted were still very confusing. For a moment, the soldiers who established the slaves were actually a little afraid, and the movements of their hands were... After hesitating, the offensive gradually slowed down.

The officers and soldiers of the Ming Army were more confident and their morale was even higher.

The slave master looked at Zhu Tianqi on the high platform and narrowed his eyes slightly.

Between him and Zhu Tianqi, the soldiers of Jiannu and the soldiers of the Ming army were still fighting to the death. However, compared with when the battle just started, the advantage of Jiannu was no longer obvious. Under the stubborn resistance of the soldiers of the Ming army, The slave-building army could no longer move forward.

As time goes by, the patience of the slave-building master is about to run out, and the battle in front of him seems to continue indefinitely. According to the current view, the final outcome of this battle is likely to be that both sides die together, but this is by no means The result he wanted.

On the other hand, he had been besieging the Ming Emperor's camp for such a long time, but still could not see any Ming army coming back for reinforcements. This showed that his main force was still under siege by the Ming army.

So he had to consider another possibility. The Ming army might have decided not to come back to rescue them. If that was the case, then if he wanted to help his main force rescue the siege, he had to capture this place!

Thinking of this, the slave master put away his bow and arrows, stared closely at Zhu Tianqi on the high platform, held the long knife at his waist with his right hand, and slowly pulled it out of the scabbard.

Then he suddenly slapped his horse and jumped forward, galloping straight towards the front of the high platform. After reaching the area where the Jiannu and Ming armies were in close contact, he suddenly pulled the reins of the horse, and the horse he was riding jumped into the air. He jumped on the back of the Jiannu soldier, used the soldier's back as a platform, took off again, and landed directly on the earthen wall behind the imperial guard.

The riflemen on the fence were terrified. Before they could turn the muzzle of the guns, they were beheaded by the general Jiannu with a knife. It is difficult for riflemen to aim and shoot.

Zhu Tianqi was very shocked when he looked at the white-armored enemy general in the siege below the stage. He did not expect to see such a scene of "taking the enemy general's head from the rebel army", and secretly sighed in his heart: "This Dorgon is indeed very brave!"

However, Zhu Tianqi immediately realized that the so-called "enemy general" who was going to be beheaded was himself, wasn't he?Thinking of this, Zhu Tianqi quickly reached for his waist and held his Glock 18 automatic pistol.

Fortunately, Zhu Tianqi was prepared for a counterattack in advance, because this slave master in white armor never entangled with the riflemen on the soil fence at all. After he killed a few riflemen, he immediately Suddenly he stood up on the horse, then leaped directly onto the high platform!
The horse under his feet was frightened by his foot, and it ran rampantly on the dirt wall, knocking all the riflemen to the ground!

The enemy general suddenly jumped onto the high platform, which was really unexpected for Zhu Tianqi. The high platform was a foot higher than Tuwei, Zhu Tianqi really didn't expect him to jump up!
However, it is obvious that Zhu Tianqi underestimated the skill of the soldiers. Not to mention that the enemy general jumped up on the horse. Even if he did not step on the horse, the height of one foot would be easy for many soldiers with superb martial arts skills.

Therefore, the Jinyi guards beside Zhu Tianqi had already been prepared. As soon as the enemy general settled down, they swarmed up and killed him. However, even though the dozen or so Jinyi guards who stayed to guard Zhu Tianqi were all masters, they faced the enemy general. Just like children, three or five were killed in a fight, and the others were kicked to the ground!
Seeing this, Zhu Tianqi knew that he could not wait any longer. If he waited until all the Jinyi guards were killed and they rushed forward, he might not even have a chance to draw his gun.

Therefore, Zhu Tianqi shouted: "Everyone, stand down and let me deal with him!"

When the Jinyi guards heard this, they all doubted their own ears, but as soon as they were distracted, they were knocked away by the enemy general. After the enemy generals knocked away the Jinyi guards, they held their swords and rushed towards Zhu Tianqi.

Zhu Tianqi didn't talk nonsense to him. He raised his hand and fired. He didn't stop until the magazine was empty. Eighteen rounds of bullets hit all of them!

Being shot by a pistol at such a close distance, no matter how hard the armor is, it has no meaning. The enemy general was beaten back repeatedly, and clouds of blood mist burst out from his body. It was not until Zhu Tianqi's bullets were exhausted that the enemy general stopped retreating. The armor on his body was full of bullet holes, and blood flowed out from the bullet holes, staining his white armor red.

Zhu Tianqi breathed rapidly and looked at the slave-building general in front of him. He was a man in his 30s, not young. Although Zhu Tianqi had never seen what Dorgon looked like, according to the historical data he had, Dorgon Gun is only seventeen or eighteen years old now, and it is obvious that the man in front of him is definitely not Dorgon!

The Jiannu general also stared at Zhu Tianqi in horror, but at this time he was speechless and could not survive. The long knife fell from his hand and fell to the ground. His whole body lost support in an instant. His knees went weak. First, His knees fell to the ground, and then he fell down in front of Zhu Tianqi!
Although the enemy general was easily killed by him, it was considered a near miss. The marksmanship he had practiced so hard during this period finally came in handy at a critical moment. However, Zhu Tianqi did not feel very excited. Instead, he became a little worried.This slave-building army clearly defeated the flag of the Eight Banners Army with a white flag. This enemy general also wore the armor of the leader of the flag with a white flag, but he was not Dorgon, the leader of the flag with a white flag. So who was he? who?Where did Dorgon go?What was the idea behind establishing slaves and sending people to impersonate Dorgon?
This series of questions instantly occupied Zhu Tianqi's mind, and at the same time a strong uneasiness hit his heart. This was the first time since the war started that Zhu Tianqi felt that things were out of his control!

And just when Zhu Tianqi was stunned, the battle situation below the high platform suddenly reversed. As the enemy general was killed by Zhu Tianqi, the slave-building troops below were instantly in chaos. Some rushed forward desperately, as if they wanted to take back their leader. corpses, and some simply turned their horses' heads and ran away.

When Zhu Tianqi saw the reaction of the slave-building troops, he could conclude that the enemy general pretending to be Dorgon, the leader of the white flag, must not be a small person, but probably also a certain flag leader!

Zhu Tianqi suddenly thought, maybe this person had changed flag colors with Dorgon, but Zhu Tianqi still couldn't figure out what the meaning of Jiannu's actions was!

Zhu Tianqi put away his pistol, then pointed at the corpse of the enemy general on the ground, and ordered the guards in uniform beside him: "Pull him aside first, and wait for the soldiers and horses from Liaodong to arrive, and then let them identify this person." Your identity!"

At this time, these Jinyi guards had already regarded Zhu Tianqi as a god, and all of them looked at Zhu Tianqi with a kind of awe and admiration for the gods. After all, they had been standing by Zhu Tianqi's side and watched the most. Clearly, in their opinion, the emperor was not only invulnerable, but also extremely skilled. He could easily kill the enemy general with just a raise of his hand!

Although the emperor used fire blunderbuss to deal with enemy generals, using fire blunderbuss is also a skill. After all, Jinyiwei is also equipped with small fire blunderbuss, but there are no people who can use it to the extent of Zhu Tianqi, so he can use fire blunderbuss Someone who is so fluent and proficient in everything can definitely be considered a top master!
Of course, their idea is entirely based on the premise that they believe that the firecrackers used by Zhu Tianqi are Ming Dynasty firecrackers. If they had understood the performance of the Glock 18 pistol, they probably would not think so.

Zhu Tianqi just has an absolute crushing advantage in weapons and equipment. In addition, he has been practicing "American Iai" hard during this period. Drawing a gun and shooting is called "quick", "ruthless" and "accurate", and then rely on With the excellent performance of the Glock 18 pistol adjusted to fully automatic mode, it is natural to fire [-] rounds at close range and all [-] rounds hit the target.

The Jiannu troops below the high platform quickly fled, and all the dead were eliminated. The battle was finally over. The casualties on the Ming army were also very heavy. Almost everyone was injured. Only about two thousand people were left standing panting.

But even though they had just experienced such a tragic battle, each of them did not show the slightest sadness. Instead, they had a look of determination. They turned around and looked up at Zhu Tianqi on the high platform, and then I don't know who took the lead in shouting. One voice: "The Emperor is mighty and invincible in the world!"

Then there was a deafening chorus of shouts: "The emperor's divine power is invincible in the world! The emperor's divine power is invincible in the world!"

Zhu Tianqi suddenly felt an unprecedented sense of accomplishment and happiness. He couldn't help but feel a little excited. He raised his arms and shouted: "The Ming army is mighty! The Ming army is mighty!"

The soldiers below also shouted: "The Ming army is mighty, our emperor is mighty! The Ming army is mighty, our emperor is mighty!"

The fleeing soldiers with white flags did not run around, but ran towards Jizhou City. They wanted to find the large army of Jiannu. After all, this was the territory of the Ming army. Only by joining the large army could they It is possible to return to Liaodong alive!
As more and more soldiers with white flags fled back, they failed to attack the camp, and the news of the death of the general also spread back to the main force of Jiannu.

Facing the three-pronged encirclement and suppression by the Ming army, Jiannu's main force was already a little exhausted, because the Ming army did not return to the army as they expected after hearing the news of the attack on the commander's camp. They went to rescue them, but all the Ming armies turned a deaf ear to them and just attacked them determinedly. This made several banner leaders of Jiannu go crazy!

The Ming army already had twice the strength of Jiannu, including [-] Guan Ning cavalry. How could Jiannu's troops be able to fight for a long time?

Now that the news of the failure of Xiangbai Banner's attack on the camp came, the Jiannu army was immediately shocked. Then they quickly shrunk their ranks and attacked Madeng Yunbu fiercely to the north. After tearing a hole, the whole army fled north.

Upon seeing this, the troops of You Shiwei and Hou Shilu in the south rushed north to catch up, and the troops of Man Gui and Zu Dashou in the east were also chasing after them. After the three generals met, You Shiwei and Hou Shilu asked Man Gui and Zu Dashou: "General Manchu, General Zu, you all fought against Jian Nu in Liaodong. In your opinion, what was Jian Nu's plan when he suddenly fled north?"

After hearing this, Zu Dashou frowned and shook his head: "I don't understand either. This Jiannu was besieged here by our army. Although he was at a disadvantage, he refused to admit defeat and resisted to the death. Why did the whole army suddenly retreat when a few defeated soldiers came from a distance?"

Man Gui sneered and said: "I see, the wave of slaves who went to sneak attack on the emperor's camp was probably defeated. I said that the emperor does not need to worry. The emperor is so clever and clever. How could he not have a sneak attack on the slaves? Be on guard!"

When Zu Dashou heard this, he couldn't help but nodded with deep thought: "Well, that makes sense. Maybe the emperor had already predicted that Jian Nu would go back to attack the camp, and had already laid out a trap and ambush, waiting for them to get inside. , No, I was beaten to pieces!"

Everyone couldn't help laughing after hearing this.

Mangui then whipped his whip several times, increased his speed, and said to everyone: "Okay, since the Emperor has ordered us to annihilate Jiannu, we don't have to think about where Jiannu is going or what he wants to do. In short, today, no matter what, we can't let them get away again!"

The main reason why the Jiannu army quickly retreated to the north was naturally closely related to the defeat of the Xiangbai Banner who sneaked into the camp. The Ming army did not fall into the trap and withdraw troops to come back for reinforcements. The sneak attack also failed. Now the Ming army is even more helpless. They are surrounded and suppressed in fear, so there is no point in staying here anymore. If you want to preserve your strength, you can only evacuate as soon as possible!
