Chapter five hundred and seventy-four escaped alone
Although there were only a few hundred casualties, compared to a phalanx of thousands of troops, the casualties were not too serious, but the scene was too tragic, and it left these soldiers stunned one by one. Nothing happens there.
At this moment, the second wave of the shelling of the tiger squatting guns sounded again, and immediately saw a cloud of gunpowder smoke, and among the gravel flying, a mourning sound sounded again.
The close-range lethality of the Tiger Squat Cannon is inexcusable, even if it is holding a shield, it may be able to resist a part of the gravel, but it can never stop the dozens or hundreds of broken iron and gravel like the scattered flowers of the goddess.
The rubble and iron gushing out of each tiger squat gun swept across, enough to pierce and even smash the shield.
As the leader of the army, Dong Ke was a little relieved to see the tiger squatting artillery making achievements. It was really just that the army was under the shooting of the opponent's longbow and saw a famous soldier fall. It can be said that the army did not collapse directly, that is already the reason why he manages the army well on weekdays.
If it weren't for Chu Yi's rectification, these soldiers in the Daming Army would be a little more brave and disciplined than before, and it would never have been possible to maintain their formation under the arrow rain.
Dong Ke personally sits in the army and supervises the army, coupled with the strict military law, even some soldiers are shaken by it, but they do not dare to have the idea of running away.
Of course, this is also because the casualties have not yet reached the bottom line that the army can bear. Although the arrow rain looks scary and there are casualties, the number of casualties is not too many after all, and they are still within the range of the army. Otherwise, I am afraid that At this moment, Dong Ke could only run away with his troops in embarrassment.
Squinting, watching the aliens in front of them being stunned by the direct hit by the tiger squat gun, Dong Ke knew that it was definitely a good time to attack.
Seeing Dong Ke slamming the spear in his hand, he snapped and said, "All officers and men, follow me to kill the enemy!"
Dong Ke took the lead and rushed out, but in a blink of an eye, he crossed a distance of dozens of meters, and the spear in his hand danced, smashing the heads of several opponents on the spot.
The soldiers immediately behind Dong Ke also rushed forward, crashing into the army formation like a torrent.
Governor George and Earl Harry, who were watching the battle from a distance, finally reacted at this moment, and their faces became very ugly when they watched this scene.
Just from the losses they saw, the number of casualties was no less than hundreds. It can be said that the two countries have exhausted the troops and horses that the two countries can mobilize in the East, but they have only gathered these thousands of troops and horses. .
But this is just a blink of an eye. Thousands of troops have been killed by almost [-]%. You must know that in the process of developing foreign countries, even if they encountered some difficult natives, this is only a matter of fact. Twenty people.
Like this, it was the first time that they had encountered hundreds of damages at the beginning of the battle.
Earl Harry did not believe that Dalikis and the others were defeated by Daming in a head-to-head confrontation, otherwise, he would not have thought of the trouble of joining the Dutch to come to Daming after getting the news.
But now, Earl Harry had an idea in his heart, and Earl Harry felt that he might have underestimated the strength of Daming.
Since seeing the sharpness of Daming's artillery fire when they attacked the port not long ago, and the firepower of the few warships that rushed out to fight with them, Governor George and Earl Harry have actually realized that Daming is not. As vulnerable as they imagined the natives.
They have indeed not seen a large-scale naval fleet in Daming, but just looking at the combat power displayed by those warships, it is very likely that Daming has a huge naval fleet.
It doesn't need much, if it is such a new type of ship, even if there are forty or fifty ships, it is enough to keep them.
To say that Daming did not even have dozens of warships, Governor George and Earl Harry would not believe it anyway.
A little bit flowing out from the gap between the huge Ming's fingers is enough to build a fleet of decent strength.
Fortunately, Governor George and the others did not know the shipbuilding plan that Chu Yi had previously insisted on. In Chu Yi's shipbuilding plan, the court would allocate as much as tens of millions of taels of gold and silver to build a huge fleet, this fleet. The number of new warships involved has reached more than a thousand.
Even when Portugal was at its peak, the navy, known as the Armada, was full of plans, and there were only hundreds of real warships.
And the hundreds of warships are not all new warships, many are old warships that have been in service for several years, and the Ming Dynasty can really be said to be a wealthy group now, but it was decided by Chu Yi's insistence. There are thousands of shipbuilding plans, and the number of navies trained has reached as many as hundreds of thousands.
If this allows Governor George and the others to know the scale of the navy compiled and trained by the Ming Dynasty, their eyes will fall.
Portugal has indeed plundered a lot of wealth across the sea, and has even trained a naval fleet with extremely high military literacy in foreign expeditions.Known as the invincible fleet at sea, such an invincible fleet at sea can almost run amok in the west, and there is no opponent.
But if it is really placed in the East, Daming is rich and powerful, and there are thousands of fleets that he casually builds.
The most important thing is that Portugal has only accumulated such an invincible fleet after hundreds of years of development, but in the hands of Chu Yi, the Ming court only needed three to five years to pull out a battleship that could be searched for more than a thousand. A huge fleet came out.
The few warships that rushed out of the port and caused them a certain impact made Governor George and Earl Harry feel a little bad, but the past experience of no defeat has made the two People subconsciously suppress their inner uneasiness.
Now in this confrontation, especially the collision between the army, the kind of bravery displayed by the men led by Dong Ke has deeply stimulated Governor George and the others.
Whether it is from the navy or the army, although it seems that the Daming side does not have any advantage, Governor George and Earl Harry also know that the reason why they were able to go so smoothly from the beginning is because they suddenly attacked and hit Daming. One was caught off guard.
If this allowed Daming to calmly gather troops and horses, mobilize the fleet, and then have a battle at sea, it is hard to say what the result will be.
Even under the circumstance of being raided, the defenders of the Ming Dynasty still showed their fearlessness and formidable combat power far surpassing those of the indigenous alien races.
Governor George looked at Earl Harry with a worried look, especially now that Dong Ke led the army into the army.
The tidy army formation was now showing signs of collapse. Governor George urgently said: "Earl Harry, think of a way. If the army is defeated, we are afraid that it will be difficult for us to fly!"
Earl Harry's aura was not much better than that of Governor George. Governor George was flustered, and Earl Harry's aura was also shaken.
"Fight!"
With a ferocious look in his eyes, Earl Harry looked at Governor George and gritted his teeth: "George, we have no other choice. If we can't resist this battle, none of us want to leave alive."
While speaking, Earl Harry suddenly pulled out the horse, and even took the initiative to charge towards the battlefield where the two sides were fighting.
Governor George was stunned when he saw Earl Harry rushing on his horse. After reacting, he saw Governor George shouting at several officers around him, "Let's go!"
Governor George did not rush up following Earl Harry, but turned around and fled with his men after Earl Harry rushed out.
Just rushing into the battlefield, Earl Harry, who was flying a Da Mingshi with a long sword in his hand, subconsciously looked into the distance. At a glance, Earl Harry did not see Governor George, who he was expecting, follow, but instead looked at him. To the scene where Governor George took the opportunity to escape.
The long sword that stabbed at a soldier paused slightly, and Earl Harry couldn't help roaring: "My compatriots, kill with me."
As Earl Harry said, if they can't win this game, they can imagine what will happen to them, and there is no future to speak of.
The fact that Earl Harry went into battle in person was indeed quite encouraging for morale. Originally, these soldiers were already showing signs of defeat, but after Earl Harry went into battle in person, most of the flustered soldiers settled down and started to fight.
Dong Ke could clearly feel that the speed at which he led his subordinates into the formation suddenly slowed down, especially the resistance of the foreign soldiers around him suddenly increased a lot.
"kill!"
As soon as he heard a ding sound, he saw Dong Ke jumping up from his body, and the spear in his hand stabbed towards Earl Harry from the air.
When Earl Harry came on his horse, in fact, Dong Ke had already determined that Earl Harry was one of the most important figures in the enemy army.
There was a bit of joy in Dong Ke's eyes, his figure fell from the air, and the spear slammed down at Earl Harry.
The long sword in Earl Harry's hand shook violently and stabbed at Dong Ke's wrist. The angle of the long sword's piercing can be described as tricky and ruthless, and it forced Dong Ke to withdraw his hand. If the spear goes down, there is a great possibility that Dong Ke will be severely injured, but his wrist holding the spear is afraid that it will be cut off directly.
If it wasn't for being in a desperate situation, Dong Ke would never choose to fight for his life.
The two fought in an instant, and the spear in Dong Ke's hand was extremely agile, like a silver snake.
Dong Ke laughed even more at this moment, and his words kept provoking Earl Harry: "It seems that your companion is going to leave you and escape alone!"
[Thinking about the plot of the main world and the next dungeon in the past two days, if you have any suggestions, please mention it and ask for support. 】
Chapter five hundred and seventy-fifth port victory [1 more]
Although Earl Harry said he knew a few Chinese words, Dong Ke kept provoking almost [-]% of Earl Harry's words. Earl Harry couldn't understand it, but not understanding it didn't mean that Earl Harry couldn't read it. What does Dong Ke mean?
The long sword in his hand kept blocking. Earl Harry was born in a noble family, and his swordsmanship was quite superb, but his swordsmanship was too brilliant, but his practicability was not high. The ability to block Dong Ke's attack was nothing more than instinct. Just react.
But looking at this situation, even Earl Harry knew in his heart that if there was no turning point, he might not be the opponent of the general in front of him.
A spear unfolded in Dong Ke's hands like a dragon that could kill anyone at any time. In the tinkling sound, Earl Harry kept retreating. Suddenly, a cold light flashed, and he saw Dong. Ke Zhen flew the long sword in Earl Harry's hand, and at the same time the spear pointed directly at the heart of Earl Harry.
If this is a stab, I am afraid that Earl Harry will die on the spot. Even Earl Harry doesn't care about his identity. He rolls on the ground and is covered with dust. It can be said that he is very embarrassed. escaped the fatal blow.
Earl Harry stood up, grabbed a hand next to him and slammed it towards Dong Ke.
With a flick of the spear in his hand, Dong Ke directly smashed the soldier's head to pieces. At the same time, he stepped forward and stabbed Count Harry again.
Earl Harry was holding a shield in his hand, and flew towards Dong Ke with a sudden swing. Dong Ke dodged when he saw it, and at the same time smashed it towards the flying shield, and was about to smash the shield to the ground.
Taking advantage of this time, Earl Harry hid in the crowd.
Although it was said that the two sides were in chaos, after the initial chaos of the coalition soldiers, because the appearance of Earl Harry stabilized the morale of the army, although the situation seemed a little bad at the moment, at least the morale of the army was stable.
Once the army's heart is broken, no matter how many troops there are, there is only one way to be defeated.
Earl Harry, who hid in the crowd, picked up a long spear from nowhere, the panic in his heart calmed down a little, and looked at Dong Ke.
Dong Ke picked up a few soldiers who rushed towards him, and looked at Earl Harry from a distance. The two looked at each other and could feel the murderous intent of the other.
Dong Ke wanted to kill Earl Harry, and Earl Harry also wanted to kill Dong Ke. Both of them were the lords of the army. No matter what happened to either of them, the stalemate in front of them would be a stalemate. will change.
With a sharp spear in his hand, Dong Ke shouted to Earl Harry, "You dare to fight me!"
He understood what Dong Ke meant, but Earl Harry did not move at all. He was in the army, at least his own safety was guaranteed. He had already personally felt Dong Ke's strength. He was not Dong Ke's opponent and had a problem with his head. Only then will he run over to fight him one-on-one.
Earl Harry gradually mobilized the allied troops and even stabilized the situation, but blocked the Ming soldiers. Although it was said that compared to close combat, the allied soldiers were not the opponents of the Ming soldiers, but it was really indistinguishable for a while. To win or lose.
Dong Ke frowned when he saw such a situation, apparently not expecting that these aliens would be able to resist the onslaught of his troops.
Taking a deep breath, Dong Ke shouted: "Come here, push the tiger squat gun forward for this general, and give me a hard bang, I don't believe they won't collapse."
Immediately, a group of soldiers rushed up and pushed the tiger squat guns of that gate to approach the coalition forces in front.
When the tiger crouching artillery approached, Dong Ke ordered all the soldiers who were fighting with the opposite allied coalition to retreat.
Daming's military law was strict, and when these soldiers heard the horn of retreat, they immediately left their opponents and retreated. For a while, the Lianhe cautious Hui people who were struggling to resist were stunned.
Even they themselves can see that if the stalemate continues like this, they will eventually lose, and it is just to see how long they can hold on.
What they didn't expect was that the opponent who had suppressed them suddenly retreated.
"what happened?"
Earl Harry also noticed such a change, and subconsciously looked towards the Ming army camp. At a glance, Earl Harry's expression changed, and his face showed a bit of horror, as if instinct. The general shouted: "Defense!"
When Earl Harry shouted, the soldiers of the Ming army had already opened the distance between them and the soldiers of the alien race, and at the same time, a row of tiger squatting guns appeared in everyone's sight.
The allied soldiers who had suffered a big loss from the tiger squatting gun did not notice that the tiger squatting gun was approaching them, but when they saw the tiger squatting gun approaching, they couldn't help looking. Make a big difference.
Earl Harry shouted, and all the coalition soldiers made a defensive gesture subconsciously, but with the shout of Earl Harry, a chill flashed in Dong Ke's eyes and he shouted in a deep voice: "Fire!"
Immediately, the sound of roaring came, and saw a large piece of broken iron sprayed from the tiger squatting guns one by one, and the broken stone came out. Every piece of broken iron and stone was so terrifying, but if it hit the human body, It is a bloody hole. If you are unlucky, you will be hit on the spot, but you will die on the spot.
Almost in the blink of an eye, the soldiers fell one by one. Among the coalition forces, many soldiers watched helplessly as blood splashed on their companions in front of them, and then fell into a pool of blood.
After the first round of artillery bombardment, there was silence. Those coalition soldiers opened their eyes and breathed hard, as if this would make them forget their fears.
"withdraw!"
Earl Harry shouted, then turned and left.
"put!"
Among the rumbling sounds, there was another wave of shelling, and those coalition soldiers who had just turned around and were about to escape were immediately knocked down again.
Following Earl Harry's order and Earl Harry taking the lead in fleeing, the allied soldiers suddenly lost their fighting spirit, and one by one followed Earl Harry's footsteps and ran back towards the port.
Section Chief Dong let out a long sigh, looked at the direction in which the coalition was fleeing, and said with a bit of excitement: "Follow me."
Dong Ke strode to chase, and behind him was a group of soldiers chasing after him screaming.
The most important military merit in the Ming Dynasty, if the military merit is enough, even if you have no background, you are not from a family of generals, or you are not a noble child, you can still be promoted by merit, even if you become an earl or a viscount because of your merit. possible.
The military has changed its past decadence, and naturally it has given a lot of soldiers from ordinary people the hope of rising by virtue of their military exploits.
