Dawn of the Empire

Chapter 505 94 Xunyang full of Jingzhan -5

At this time, the troops of the Baoyi Army brigade turned to the front of the artillery fortress, and the commander Zhao Xingde was waiting for the brigade in front of the artillery fortress. He handed over the horses to the soldiers, carried a flag of the Baoyi Army with his own hands, and walked to the phalanx In the middle of the hall, with all his strength, he shouted loudly: "Expel the northern captives! Welcome back the Holy One!"

"Expel the northern captives!"

"Return to the Holy One!"

The officer led the soldiers to respond like a tsunami.The bugle, which is usually written according to the script, is incomparably inspiring and high-spirited at this moment.Ma Yuan and Liu Wengu shouted together excitedly.Jia Yuanzhen's nose was a little sore, but he was actually very surprised. When he was in Bianliang, he was only separated from the Forbidden Palace by a wall, and the Imperial Academy read sage books every day, so why was he not so loyal. "These men shouted 'Welcome to the Holy One,'" Looking at the excited soldiers around him, Jia Yuanzhen said to himself, "What is he thinking?" His heart trembled, and he didn't dare to think any further. .

"go ahead--"

"go ahead--"

"go ahead--"

The officers of the Baoyi Army are usually a little sloppy, but at this moment, everyone's face is unexpectedly serious.

General Zhao Xingde handed over the flag to his own soldiers, who followed the infantry formation with their sabers in hand.Someone once advised him to strategize more and not to witness the front arrows, but Zhao Xingde laughed it off.The generals he has met, from Liu Yi, Xu Wenhu, Wang Yan, Yang Yanqing, to Yue Fei, Han Shizhong, are all like this.Regardless of whether in Xia or Song, soldiers were proud to fight with their generals. The general's personal bravery often inspired the entire army.This battle is related to the safety of the whole world, and he has put life and death aside.

With the help of neat chants, the officers coordinated the formation from the ten-man team to the command. Different from the sparse formation of the town army, the fourteen commanders of the Baoyi Army lined up in a thick and huge square formation. The banner of each command Flying high on the left side of the phalanx, the soldiers walked shoulder to shoulder and marched in neat steps.

Yue Fei nodded slightly.The two absolute main forces of the Song Army, the Suppression Army and the Baoyi Army, had all pressed onto the battlefield, but he was unmoved at all, and just looked at the battlefield with a sinking face.Behind the camp of the Chinese army, Niu Gao was mobilizing the rear army to make loud noises and bluff to intimidate the enemy. At the same time, he transferred the battalions of prefectures and counties with decent combat strength to the vicinity of the Chinese army to prevent the Liao army from putting all their eggs in one basket.

"Like,..., really like." The staff member murmured.The movements of the Baoyi Army and the Suppression Army were exactly the same in front of them, with the momentum of one heart, if it weren't for the different flags, it was almost indistinguishable.It's as if the same person is 'fucking' the show.You know, the performances of every forbidden army in the Song Dynasty are all full of tricks.

On the other side of the battlefield, Brother Tiemu's face changed drastically, and he asked sharply, "Isn't there only more than [-] people in the town? Why are there so many people suddenly?" He was like a tiger half-stepped into a trap Generally speaking, all the Han soldiers who stared fiercely at Wenda, because of the relationship between the same race and the same race, and the truth and reality of the Song army in the southeast, Brother Tiemu had heard everything from Wenda.

Wen Daren called Wen Da Dao, but at this moment his face was pale with fright. He stared at the Song Jun who was getting closer and closer, and suddenly shouted with amnesty: "This is not a suppressor, it is The banner of the Baoyi Army. The banner of the town is embroidered with the character Yue, and this flag is embroidered with the character Zhao.”

"Really?" Brother Timu was dubious.

Wen Da nodded his head like a chicken pecking rice: "It is absolutely true that it is the Baoyi Army." He was also puzzled.The Baoyi army is good at ambushes, beating sap sticks, and robbing food roads, which is completely different from the upright suppression of gangsters.But now this army on the battlefield is clearly playing the banner with the word "Zhao".Because the surnames of the generals were used as the banner, the town army was called the Yue Family Army, the Baoyi Army was called the Zhao Family Army, and the Henghai Navy was called the Han Family Army.Even Wen Da knew that these three powerful forces rising up from the Song Dynasty were fighting openly and secretly, and it was absolutely impossible for the suppressing party to defeat Zhao Ziqi.

"The southern barbarians are treacherous, we have to guard against them..." Brother Timu said with emotion, he frowned, he had already ordered the withdrawal of troops, and the cavalry retreated to the back of the fort, but only a few subordinates walked out of the smog-shrouded The center of the battlefield rushed out. "These stupid pigs?" Brother Timu thought angrily, "Aren't they riding on horses, but sticks?"

"Why are you withdrawing so slowly?" He stared at a distressed general and asked.

"Nanban, Nanban are crazy!" Subotai explained incoherently with a confused expression on his face.It took a long time to break through their formation, but they just dispersed?He didn't know how to think that Brother Tiemu was all about this, and suddenly his eyes were fixed on the battlefield. He was only focused on rushing out of the center of the hellish battlefield just now, and he didn't notice that there was another large group of Song troops. Cast out of the field.

"My lord, let the last general lead his troops to crush these southern barbarians!"

"My department is willing to lead the troops to fight!"  …

Brother Tiemu didn't seem to have heard his subordinates calling for battle, he stared blankly at the Song Army's layer upon layer of camps opposite.After so many days of confrontation in Shuzhou since the Western Expedition, Song Jun had never caught him by surprise like today, so much so that Brother Timu doubted his own judgment.Damn Yue Fei, how many people did he hide behind those camps?He stared at Subotai with some disgust. These guys just ran out, and they couldn't even tell the truth about the enemy.Although Wen Da and other generals are not of the same race, at least they can speak clearly.Thinking of this, Brother Tiemu couldn't help feeling chills in his heart, and his eyes fell on the formation of the Baoyi Army. The neat array was getting closer and closer to the center of the battlefield. Although he couldn't see clearly in the smog, Brother Tiemu could guess , There must be a scuffle over there.

"My lord, let my troops go out to fight and crush these southern barbarians." The voice of the subordinates calling for the battle became louder and louder.

"Let me think, let me think," Brother Timu's voice was a little low, and he looked at the opposite side solemnly. Ever since he killed people and stole horses at the age of 13 and took up a knife and went to the battlefield, he still He had never hesitated before. The Song Army barracks on the opposite side, every plant and tree on the mountain, seemed to be hiding enemies with vague faces behind them.

The Baoyi army marched to the center of the battlefield in a strict formation. From time to time, disoriented Liao army cavalry escaped from the smoke and dust, and were either driven away by the left and right cavalry, or crashed into the front of the infantry formation.Finally, we reached a distance where we couldn't move forward without firing.The people and horses in the smoke and dust are indistinct.The sound of horseshoes, the sound of gold and iron, screams, firecrackers, and shouts were all clearly heard by the soldiers of the Baoyi Army.From time to time, a group of Liao army cavalry rushed out, bumped into a forest of spear stabs in front of the Baoyi army's formation, and then panicked and fled on horseback.

"Stop—" Lu Mingyu ordered loudly.The seven commanders in the front line stopped neatly, while the seven commanders in the rear line were still advancing slowly. "Fire the blunderbuss—" the officer gave the order immediately, and the soldiers in the first few rows set up the blunderbuss, with the muzzle slightly upwards, and the blunderbuss flew obliquely upwards, and between twenty and forty steps, just passing over the head of the person, But it can hit those Liao soldiers sitting on their horses and looking down.

"Fire--"

Nearly two thousand firecrackers were ignited at the same time. After a while, the sound of "bang, bang, bang, bang" was as dense as the sound of firecrackers in the Lantern Festival. The cavalrymen of the Liao army fell down from their horses one after another, and they were shot by firecrackers at such a close distance. The cavalrymen and horses fell down one after another, and the battlefield was in chaos.After this volley, the battlefield seemed to be quiet for a moment, and then the wounded were struggling to stand up. Most of the Liao soldiers who were lucky enough not to be shot ran away on their horses, and a very few people waved scimitars, bows and arrows at the Song army. Charged in the direction of the formation.From the gunpowder smoke, the township policeman shouted hoarsely, "Grandma, grandma, get down, get down." There are many similar places between the township police station and the Baoyi army. Everyone has done the indiscriminate "drill" of bombarding with firecrackers, but I never thought that one day I would be standing in front of the rows of firecrackers in the black hole.

"F*ck, these bastards!" Ma Quan lay on the ground in a panic, just now a blunderbuss flew past his scalp.The fire blunderbuss is enough to pierce through the iron armor within [-] steps, and if it hits a Liao soldier nearby, there will be a big hole, and the corpse is gurgling with blood. "Good kill!" Ma Quan cursed again, pushing a dusty corpse next to him with a gloomy face, trying to get this thing to cover himself.

Yan Xi gasped in pain, several ribs in his chest seemed to be broken, Ma Quan was awakened by the pain, with cold sweat dripping from his forehead, he said in a hoarse voice: "Ma Que, Who the hell are you going to kill?"

Ma Quan recognized Yan Xi's voice, he was pleasantly surprised, and said in a low voice: "Cai Dutou, you are lucky. Yue Shuai's army has arrived and is killing Liao thieves." Looking in the direction of the sound.Gunzi doesn't have eyes, so when he stood up at this moment, he felt tired of living.

On the side of the Baoyi Army, the seven command stations of the Left Army commanded by Lu Mingyu settled down, set up the firecrackers, and when the fire was lit, the seven commanded phalanxes of the Right Army commanded by Luo Xianshi did not stop at all, and stepped forward in an orderly manner. The two rows of phalanxes in the front and back are scattered, and the seven command formations of the right army just passed through the gap in front. Just as the left army in the front line opened fire, the right army entered the battlefield that had been swept away by the firecrackers. The right army and the left army exchanged. The position of the front and rear formations.Within the shooting range of thirty or forty steps of the firecrackers, more than half of the cavalry of the Liao army were killed or injured, and the rest also panicked and fled on their horses. The right army cleared the battlefield effortlessly.

After stabbing the panting enemy with guns in accordance with the military regulations, the right army marched slowly for a while, and set up firecrackers again at the crowded place in front of them, and the sound of "bang bang bang" and "bang bang bang" sounded again , The blunderbuss like a storm cleared the battlefield thirty or forty paces away.

In this way, the left and right armies alternately covered and advanced, with a strict formation, like a plowshare of iron and fire, turning bloody flowers in the center of the chaotic battlefield. After suffering a great loss, those who escaped by chance retreated back regardless of the damage. The few times when hundreds of riders rushed into the formation, they were also easily repelled by the Baoyi army.As for the soldiers who had already been exhausted, in addition to lying down to avoid the rain of bullets, they dragged their heavy bodies and exhausted their last remaining strength to follow closely behind the Baoyi army, tens of thousands of infantrymen. The huge army formed slowly penetrated the gunpowder smoke and was fully displayed in front of the Liao army.
