Go back to the end of the Ming Dynasty to be a soldier

Chapter 184 Blocking ([-])

"My lord..." Zu Keyong wanted to say something more, but Ji Dong interrupted him.

"Maybe Cao Cao has seen us through, but this battle must be fought like this. You will understand in the future."

"Subordinates obey." Zu Keyong didn't say anything more, only obeyed.

If according to Zu Keyong's style of attack, it is still too late, that is to let all the ambush soldiers attack, while most of these rogues are still in the water, and some of them have landed ashore and are not stable, they will kill them together, and Luo Rucai and the others will definitely be defeated.

But these years, Zu Keyong followed Ji Dong and knew Ji Dong's temper.No one can doubt the decision he made.No one can disobey his orders.

This iron-blooded warrior of the Guanning Army was once as fierce as a bandit. He had to admit that he had been completely conquered by Ji Dong. He could oppose his immediate boss Zu Kuan, but he could not oppose his partner Lin Yi. under.

Because Zu Keyong knew that Zu Kuan was at most a general, and Zu Keyong was at most a general, while his partner Lin Yi was a general.

Zu Keyong knows that although there is a difference of one word, there is a world of difference.

After Zu Keyong bowed and saluted, he went down with a few soldiers...

When Erhu, He Tao and others were at a loss, and when they could not hold on to the curse, Zu Keyong suddenly appeared behind their team, and Erhu and He Tao could only obediently follow Zu Keyong. , Followed by Erhu and He Tao, there were more than 2000 generals from the first battalion.

At this time, it is reasonable for Erhu and the others to flee. A large number of rogues have already rushed ashore, and there are still a large number of rogues still rushing forward in the river. The river bank cannot be defended in this situation. If they stay any longer, they will definitely be killed by the rogues. Annihilation, the main force of Erhu's first battalion retreated in the name of escaping, which seemed very natural and not artificial at all.

Soon Luo Rucai's tens of thousands of troops successfully crossed, and the north bank of Baishui River was full of bandits.

Finally, Luo Rucai also crossed the river under the protection of his own soldiers.

"My lord, do we want to chase after the remnants of the annihilated army?" Dong Shanhu scolded just now, and couldn't swallow it. His ancestors have been scolded for generations, and he has not been beaten and scolded as much as he is today. How can he swallow it? This tone?Now the task of covering the brigade's men and horses to cross the river has been completed. Looking at the direction in which Erhu and the others fled, Dongshanhu gritted his teeth and asked for orders again.

Luo Rucai ignored him, saw Erhu and the others running westward, and ordered his troops to advance westward.

"This cunning old fox!" Lin Yi cursed, and ordered the standard battalion ambushing in the east not to move, and ordered the second battalion to fire. At the same time, he asked Zu Keyong to lead the two tigers and their first battalion to speed up their march and come around to intercept from the west. The main force of thieves.

After receiving Lin Yi's order to fire, the cannons of the Second Battalion were already ready. When they saw the thieves moving westward, they stopped moving in the west direction. If they aimed at other directions, they quickly turned the cannons.

"fire!"

The commanders of the two second battalions, Wang Qi and Dongsheng, ordered dozens of cannons to fire together.

"Boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom..."

The earth shook and the mountains shook, deafening.

The cannon is worthy of being the god of war. It roared and sent a shell out of the chamber, making a deafening sound.

Cannonballs were flying in the air, falling into the thieves one by one.

The solid bullet hit the thief's head, and his brain burst.When it hit the horse, the bones and tendons were broken.When it hits the rocky ground, it can still bounce and sprint, no matter how far the wheel travels, it will knock down everything it passes.

The most powerful thing at this time is the shotgun, which fell into the crowd and exploded with a bang. There were iron nails, stones, etc. in it, and it could knock down a piece of it with one shot.

The explosion of the cannon shell ignited the gunpowder buried in the ground.

Boom, boom, boom...

There were bursts of bangs, and amidst the thick smoke, balls of fire rose up.

Two thieves were knocked down to the ground as if they had stepped on a landmine. When the thick smoke and flames faded, they turned into a scorched corpse.

There was also a thief who was bombarded, covered in fire, screaming and rampaging, and finally fell to the ground, rolling, and finally stopped moving, his face changed beyond recognition.

The pungent smell of barbecue and burnt meat permeates the air.

The thieves cried and howled, casualties were everywhere, the horses neighed, and they fled in all directions.Stampede each other countless casualties.

Luo Rucai's vanguard was in disarray at that time, and those behind did not dare to move forward, with panicked expressions on their faces.

Luo Rucai was so shocked that his ears creaked, and he looked in the direction of the shell in horror.Damn, what the hell are you doing!Did I make a wrong judgment?The ambush should be in the west, right?

Luo Rucai turned his eyes, looked at the direction where the two tigers fled just now, and then looked at the subordinates who were injured and disabled by the shells everywhere.

"Master Luo, you were right, there was indeed an ambush, but their artillery fire was too fierce, what should we do?" Hong Tatian Zhang Tianlin held a double-barreled firecracker in his hand, with a look of panic on his face.

Luo Rucai's eyes turned in their sockets again. His head was like a big date pit, with two pointed ends and a wide middle.

"This must be their tactic of suspicious soldiers. Their heavy troops must be in ambush to the east. The reason why they fired their cannons here is to stop us. I don't want to go east. Come on, charge me again!"

Luo Rucai's men and horses retreated for a while, and after being rectified, they rushed westward again, covering the mountains and plains.

Dozens of cannons had passed the first round of bombardment. At this time, several Huzun cannons showed their power. Although the range of this thing is short, its power is very powerful.

Countless thieves have become cannon fodder.

But Luo Ru gave the order to die, and he had to rush over here, regardless of the cost.He asked Hong Tatian to personally organize a supervising team, and all those who retreated would be hacked to death.

These thieves scolded their mothers, but they didn't dare not listen.Later, they also went all out. Rather than being hacked to death by their own people, it would be better to die in the sound of gunfire.Amidst the deafening gunfire, this is the thief, howling and rushing up again.

Lin Yi, who was ten miles away, could see clearly from a high place in the dark: "Damn it, Luo Rucai's men are really evil. He doesn't want to be fooled today, but I must let him be fooled! Where should the first battalion be?"

"My lord, according to your instructions, the first battalion has circled to the designated location."

"Stop shelling, let the first battalion attack!"

Ji Dong knew that in the era of cold weapons, the power of artillery fire was limited after all. It was okay to shock them with cannons, but if they couldn't be suppressed, they had to change their routines.It is impossible to block this place with these artillery fires, because the terrain here is vast, tens of thousands of horses risk their lives to charge, and it is not difficult to break through the range of the artillery fire. busy.

What Ji Dong wants now is not a simple victory. If he uses Zu Keyong's method like that, he can achieve it.This is what happened to Luo Rucai, he was going to be tougher.

Of course, if you want to be ruthless, you must pay the corresponding price and bear the corresponding risk.Just like doing business, only by investing a lot of capital can we seek big benefits.A small rich will be safe, but a little taste will definitely not work.Big capital, of course, has to bear big risks.

The roaring cannons finally stopped, and Luo Rucai's tens of thousands of horses finally rushed out, at least the thieves thought so.Although there were many casualties in the two charges, but there were no ambushes, Luo Ru thought he was smart.

He thought he had his way, and just relaxed.Nagging, a cannon rang, and he almost fell off his horse in fright.

Immediately after the shouts that shook the sky, countless officers and soldiers rushed out.

"Catch Luo Rucai alive, don't let him escape! Those who surrender will not die!" The 2600 troops from the first battalion shouted, overwhelmingly killing these officers and soldiers.

The one rushing to the front was Zu Keyong, waving a big ax in his hand, and on the left and right were the two commanders of the first battalion, Erhu and He Tao.

For Luo Rucai, this army was tantamount to falling from the sky.Luo Rucai had an unbelievable expression on his face.

In panic, Luo Rucai couldn't turn his head around, "Could it be that my judgment is wrong, how could Ji Dong set up an ambush here? Obviously, the focus of the gossip formation he set up must be on the east side. You can never go wrong if you go west.”

Luo Rucai looked at the menacing Ming army, and in the blink of an eye, his vanguard had been killed by the Ming army and scattered in all directions, with corpses strewn all over the place.

Luo Rucai forced himself to calm down.He took a closer look and understood.These people bluffed fiercely, but at most there were only two to three thousand people, and he, who had experienced many battles, could tell the reality of the opponent's troops at a glance.

Seeing this, Luo Ru sneered: "There are quite a lot of twists and turns in Lin's stomach, Dongshan Tiger, bring your troops and kill them!"
