Warrior in Turbulent Han Dynasty

Chapter 212: In the clouds

"Boom! Boom! Boom..." Suddenly the city was like a bolt from the blue. Starting from the gate of the city, many places on the avenue exploded, and fire and smoke burst into it!

Crushed stones and soil were scattered and scattered, injuring a small number of Khitan cavalry nearby. A heat wave quickly spread to both sides, and the hot wind mixed with dense smoke blowing away. [This book was first published] The horses and horses were all startled, and the horses ran in panic. The gunpowder was buried too shallow in a hurry, and the power of the explosion was very limited, but the gunpowder smoke was terrible. With the heat wave, it flooded all the cracks in the streets.

The entire avenue near the city gate seemed to have a heavy fog, and the clouds in the sky fell down. The people in the gunpowder can't discern things.

At this moment, the sound of drums on both sides suddenly heard loudly, followed by heavy and neat footsteps, and it seemed that countless infantry teams were running up. There was also a sound of killing everywhere, the bowstring "cracked", the arrows flew in the thick smoke, and there was a scream.

After the explosion sounded, there was an instant chaos in the city!

...

Hearing the sound of footsteps and seeing heavy smoke everywhere, he just entered the south gate of Zhuozhou, near the city gate, and he heard the footsteps. He shouted for the generals to go north, not wanting to fight the infantry at this time.

At this moment, I heard someone yelling in Khitan: "It's not good, we were in an ambush, the king told us to run quickly! It's not good..."

There are people everywhere ordering this, and the smoke is soaring and it is hard to see who is calling. The group of people shouted and ran on horseback, and the shouts whizzed past. The surrounding Liao soldiers were in a dilemma, and were enveloped by gunpowder smoke, and soon they were in a mess.

"Kill! Kill..." The sound of killing sounded all around, and the clanging metal crashing and the screams of people were mixed together, and the soldiers everywhere started fighting.

Brother Xi has been wandering around the city for less than two sticks of incense, and most of the men who followed him have dispersed, not knowing where they rushed. At this time, the gunpowder was slightly diffused by the wind, and he led the army to the gate of the city.

As soon as I approached the south gate, I suddenly saw a large horizontal and vertical formation of Zhou army infantry standing there, motionless.

Brother Xi wants to order the heavy rider to rush out of the city, but where is there any heavy rider at this time? The horsemen and soldiers of all ministries were mixed together, and the soldiers could not find their leader, so they had to follow the big group of people and horses of Brother Xi to follow the crowd.

"Kill!" Brother Xi shouted.

The Liaoqi in front ignored the formation, and rode up one after another. The front bows and arrows, ready to rush in and shoot.

A member of the general Zhou Jun pulled out his saber with a "swish", raised it, and shouted: "Let the arrow!" The light soldiers of the Zhou army in the front row raised their bows and arrows together as they lifted the sword. Papa papa..." A burst of arrows fired horizontally at a distance of about twenty steps, and heavy arrows shot flat and pierced at close range. The horsemen and soldiers of the Liao Army suddenly turned on their backs and fell like a violent wind.

"Arrow!" The general of the Zhou army pointed his sword forward again. The front row squatted down, and there was another volley in the back row.

After two rounds, the Liao army has turned its head and stopped rushing forward. At this time, the bowstrings in the Zhou army camp sounded more densely, "cracking" rang, I saw the countless black dots flying into the air, gliding in the air, and suddenly accelerated and fell to the ground diagonally, as if they were descending. There was a heavy rain. Some arrows fell off the roof of the house tiles, "ding and dangling" breaking the roof, like hail.

The Liao soldiers waved their swords and danced on their heads, as if they were driving away flies, and from time to time they screamed. Amid the spread of gunpowder, the arrows are like locusts. This is really the most unbearable place.

Suddenly the gong at the gate of the city rang with a "bang", "Boom boom boom..." The snare drum beat quickly. Suddenly, the tiger flag in front of the army fell forward and lay flat on the flanks. "Kill!" The army shouted, and the infantry picked up their swords and spears and slowly marched towards the army.

Upon seeing this, Brother Xi hurriedly turned around and walked north again. The other cavalry have lost their upper and lower orders, and follow wherever there are more cavalry.

This group of Liao troops was stationed in Youzhou area all year round, and they also knew the city where Han children lived, so they rushed to the east to find other city gates. They rode horses instead of alleys, only the streets to facilitate maneuvering; the streets on the east and south sides of the city were full of Liao cavalry.

Brother Xi and other large groups of people rushed to the east side of the street, only to see the insurgency.

A Khitan general in the front rushed without saying a word, and the entourage behind also rushed up with his horse. Upon seeing the messy Zhou Jun steppers who were out of line, they turned around and ran away.

"Yawei..." The Khitan general in front yelled strangely. He held the iron bone flower to catch up with a pawn, and smashed it skillfully. There was a loud noise, knocking on the helmet of the **** of that week. Soldier stand up.

The general killed one person, and the mount was a little slow; the Liao Qi next to him had passed over, holding a spear straight at the back of a running Sergeant Zhou. The stepper looked back while running, but seeing that Liao Qi was getting closer, he raised his head and yelled and squeezed out and galloped. But after a while, Liao Qi had already caught up, raised his spear and stabbed it sideways, and inserted it deeply into the soldier's back.

There were also a few Zhou sergeants around. Seeing this, they wanted to surround him and pull Naliao off his horse, but immediately heard the sound of "pap pap". The Liao army cavalry who followed behind shot and drew their swords. , Condescendingly hacking.

Zhou Jun's footmen rushed away and fled into the alley. Two people smashed through a door and fled into the house. The cavalry of the Liao army wrapped pine branches in tarpaulin, lit the fire, and threw a few torches on the roof.

The crowd rushed all the way and ran across two wider streets, only to see a canal in front of them. The street stretched over and was a stone arch bridge over the canal. It is a pity that at least a hundred people formed a square formation in front of the stone arch bridge, and the cherry spears were densely packed together like a forest.

Liao Qi rushed forward and shot arrows immediately, and Zhou army also used crossbows to fight back. Brother Xi had already rode his horse to the front, recalling the left and right and shouted: "Get out of that group of people!"

The general asked for a battle, and soon led his soldiers up, braving arrows to rush towards the front. The light soldiers of the Zhou army who shot arrows in the front fled to both sides, and the team behind them immediately took up their long spears and formed a dense line to wait.

The front Liaoqi rushed to the front, hurriedly strangled the horse, "his" the horse called, and his front hoofs were raised high and fell heavily. Immediately a few long spears stabbed over and inserted into the horse's chest. The horse was sore and turned around and ran wildly. That liao riding skill was quite good, and even on the horse's back, following the strength of the horse's bumps, it didn't fall off like sticking. But the horse "bumped" on the front hoof before running a few steps, and the Liao cavalry rolled off the horse. When they were in front of the Zhou army, they immediately saw the blood mist rising, screaming and screaming.

Zhong Liao did not dare to ride in front of the formation, and shot with bow and arrow again. Arrows flew randomly.

At this moment, another group of Liao army cavalry rushed from the side street, rushing towards the flank of the Zhou army camp. There was a ding jingle, the Zhou army's hundred people formation was torn apart, and the front Liao Qi immediately charged and attacked. The Shaoqin Zhou army collapsed, and the strength immediately reversed. The steppers fled to the bridge one after another, and many people were squeezed into the canal.

The rebels in the canal were all filthy and walked to the opposite side. The water is not deep, the deepest part is chest, but very dirty. It seems to be a drainage channel, which usually lost a lot of dirt in it, and only waited for heavy rain to wash away from the city.

The Liao army chased to the arch bridge, but saw more Zhou army infantry phalanx on the other side waiting in full formation, layered on top of each other, with a great depth. This battle simply made people completely devoid of any desire to attack.

Brother Xi followed the army to the bridge and took a look at the situation on the other side. Looking at the canal in front of me, the water is not deep, but the trench is very deep. After the cavalry went down, it might be difficult to get up... Fortunately, it was not wide.

Brother Xi immediately shouted: "Xi Lie! Leave here and see where there is a bridge. Otherwise, demolish the house and choose another place to build a bridge!"

...

The Liao army on all sides was fighting each other, and it was almost impossible to tell who was who. There seemed to be Liao Qi everywhere and Zhou Jun everywhere, and there was no way to contact them.

The people sent out were basically unable to find the right place and were ambushed along the way. There was also that Han'er of Youzhou who could speak Khitan, and spread false news around in the chaos... Some generals of the Liao army wanted to obey the orders of the Shangfeng army and ran in the direction of the orders, but they would usually collide with their own people. The army turned around.

There are still a large number of Liao cavalry surging on the north-south arterial road; but the Zhou army in the direction of the south gate is advancing along the way. The south gate has a very large number of Zhou army, with 500 men as a large formation, pushing forward and backward on top of each other. The sound and drums blasted in the sky is shocking!

Liao Qi was attacked by the enemy, and a large group of troops rushed to the north, already attacking outside the fence of the Zhou army camp. I saw that there were many banners and tents in the army, but few people were seen outside, and they had already withdrawn.

At this moment, there was a sudden "bang" of firecrackers and the sound of drums. Then the sound of horseshoes in front rang into pieces.

After the army, horses and soldiers were defeated and retreated to the north of the city, they gathered a part of them, and they actually counterattacked.

The first young military commander was Dong Zunxun~www.readwn.com~ He was wearing heavy double armor and wrapped like iron rice dumplings, seated on a pure-blooded tall giant horse, and rushed forward. Dong Zunxun was in heavy armor, but his movements were very flexible. He opened his bow and shot. With two chords, the two Liaoqi who were more than twenty steps away fell from their horses.

The two armies were already close, but the Liao army was shot but didn't fight back with bows and arrows, but immediately picked up the long and short weapons to speed up, seizing the opportunity to gain momentum.

Sure enough, Zhou Jun Ma Bing rushed to the front, Dong Zunxun directly threw away the expensive carved bow in his hand and drew the knife from his back. Immediately, the long knife could only be easily pulled out from the back, and with a "clang", the weapon hit sparks and splashed.

The soldiers around him also rushed up, and the two sides alternated like electric gallops. A Zhou army knight pierced the Khitan cavalry's abdomen directly with the cherry spear, and immediately gave up the cherry spear, but another iron-boned flower whizzed towards him, he had no time to dodge, hit the face, and suddenly screamed "Ah". There was a cry. The iron lump like a large garlic head hit the nose and the blood immediately splashed.

The horse soldiers on the street slashed wildly for a time, and the flesh and blood on the ground was trampled by iron hoofs.
