Chapter 294 A Loss
In a few days of battle, there has always been a team, silently waiting for the opportunity to kill the enemy, but they have to hide. They are the cavalry sent by Zhang Yang at the beginning.
Completed the task of harassing the march of the Tatars. Zhao Zixiong and Pan Yuanshao joined forces and ambushed outside the battlefield of Gaoyoufu, waiting for the opportunity.
They are the combination of the most powerful cavalry under Zhang Yang. In several battalions, the best soldiers can naturally become cavalry, and combining these cavalry is naturally the most powerful force.
In a few days of fighting, they have been outside the battlefield, quietly hiding, waiting for the arrival of the eldest brother's order.
At the most intense time of the siege, they did not have a chance to appear. They thought that the eldest brother had forgotten himself.
Zhang Yang did not forget, but he knew that the strength of the two sides was very different.
There are only a few thousand people in their own cavalry. If they are ordered to attack tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of tar camp, they are obviously looking for death.
Now, the opportunity is just right.
All the tars have come up like a tide. There are only a small number of troops guarding under the commander's banner of the other party. At this time, their own team of thousands of people suddenly came out and will get the greatest results at the least cost.
Shoot the man first, shoot the horse, and catch the thief and catch the king first. The goal of the cavalry is the commander-in-chief of this battle, and the Taishi above ten thousand people under one person.
A large number of cavalry were killed behind him. At the beginning, he didn't care. From afar, he didn't see clearly and thought it was his own team.
In the left-behind team in the north, there are also a certain cavalry troops, who may come to reinforce themselves. The enemy's cavalry? Totuan did not take it to heart. Now all the defenders are trapped in Gaoyou Mansion by themselves. They have not found that there are enemies who will bypass their defense lines and run behind them, even in other directions. Totuan has also been widely sent to scouts, let alone Xinghua and other places to come to reinforce.
Get rid of your eyes and still stare at the frontal battlefield. With the entry of his last troops, the war situation is about to change dramatically.
At all costs, Yuekuo Chaer led the team and has rushed into the distance of the top of the city a hundred steps. Their fire can also shoot at the head of the city from a low place. Rockets, a swarm of bees and crossbows are constantly shooting at the head of the city.
The return gun is also in place. Although there are many casualties, they are also in position. They only need to accurately hit a few cannons and bombard the city wall, and the team can rush up.
Although the casualties this time are a little big, looking at the corpses everywhere, I'm afraid it's not less than 100,000, but it's a great achievement to be able to capture Gaoyou Mansion in one fell swoop. In fact, the credit is not valued. This time, the army came to Gaoyou Mansion to take down Gaoyou Mansion as soon as possible and deter those Xiaoxiao. What kind of Guo Zixing, Zhu Yuanzhang and others, if they don't know each other, they don't care to destroy them.
"Enemy attack, alarm!" The sentry of the back team suddenly found that the cavalry who came was not to reinforce their own cavalry, but the group of anti-thieves who always made trouble for themselves on the road!
As soon as the sentry of the rear team found that the person was not their own reinforcements, they heard the familiar sound of fire.
"Ban, bang." The cavalry rode a horse while shooting on the horse. The repeated practice during this period gave them a certain mastery of riding and shooting.
"Master, it's dangerous here. Let's withdraw first!" The captain of the guard said.
Some officials who followed Totou also turned pale. Now, their large troops have rushed to the head of the city, but they have been attacked by the other party's cavalry.
If it's normal, they still hope that this small army can be like today, not to scratch and leave after the fight, but to look like they don't rush over and never to give up. Most of them have suffered the pain of these cavalry, leave after the fight, and repeatedly scratching.
However, I can't do it today. There is no brigade of soldiers around me, only this thousand people. In the cavalry of the thousands of those who charged, I am the lamb to be slaughtered. If the other party rushes over, I will have to be cut down.
Take off your face and look pale. Victory is just a matter of time. The return gun has begun to be ready to fire. If you hold on for a while, your team can rush into the Gaoyou Mansion. However, if you don't leave, I'm afraid you won't be able to wait for that time.
However, if I leave and the handsome flag moves, I'm afraid those soldiers who are still fighting in blood will be greatly moved.
You can't leave. Even if you die, you have to stay here.
For a moment, I made up my mind.
"Talim, you take five hundred-person teams to block each other." Take it off and say it. Tarim is his own deputy captain of the guard.
"Yes, Master."
"Brothers, follow me!" Tarim said and led the team to the back. It's like a moth jumping into the fire, but they are fearless. For the sake of the master, they dared to go up the mountain of knives and the sea of fire.
"Master, if we don't withdraw, I'm afraid it will be too late." Pingzhang's political affairs in Shaanxi Province said.
"Before the general attack, I have issued a military order. Those who dare to retreat will be killed without mercy!" He said with a blank face.
Everyone's hearts are sinking. Here, the nearest army is also 800 steps away. It is impossible for these troops to retreat to protect themselves. The morale is inflatable. If a hundred-person team retreats, it may lead to disaster in an instant.
However, the cavalry behind is less than 300 steps away from me. No matter how powerful the hundreds of cavalry are, there are thousands of them! A fool can think of what the result is.
You are not afraid of death, but don't pull us to bury you. For a moment, those senior officials thought gloomyly.
"Ban, bang, bang." Seeing the rushing tar cavalry, Zhao Zixiong and Pan Yuanshao's cavalry slowed down one after another, and then killed each other with fire.
Before the two armies contacted each other, the cavalry detachment of hundreds of people was killed by Tianque.
"Catch the tar official!" Zhao Zixiong shouted.
Now, the tars are desperately attacking the city wall. There are only a few hundred people left to protect the tars, and they didn't escape! It's a good opportunity.
Zhao Zixiong raised Tianque, aimed steadily, and interrupted the hanging handsome flag with one shot.
Listening to the sound of the approaching cavalry behind, the senior officials are all trembling in their hearts. If they don't leave, there will be no chance at all.
"All soldiers, our army is fighting in blood. Now, there is another bandit behind. Hold the weapon in your hand, and we will wipe out this bandit!" Totach pulled out a long sword from his waist, and he was going to kill the enemy himself.
The senior officials are about to pee their pants. Is there a war? ** They are not afraid of fighting with women. If they really pick up knives and guns and fight with the enemy, they don't have the courage.
Run away? Whoever wants to escape will definitely be killed by the master with a sword, which is simply inevitable.
"Bang!" Suddenly, the flagpole of the handsome flag with thick arms was broken, and the handsome flag suddenly fell down and hit the head.
He died before he was defeated. Before he killed an enemy, he was defeated by his own flagpole!
The flagpole was very heavy, just hitting the head of the detachment. Before the detachment got on the horse, it had fallen to the ground.
"Master, Master!" The senior officials shouted anxiously.
The captain of the guard stepped forward to help him out, only to see that his head was full of blood and he was unconscious.
coincidentally, all the senior officials saw that Duta had fainted. They grabbed the horses next to them, jumped up, and fled to the north as if they were flying.
Escape, the faster you escape, the better, and the farther you escape, the better! They don't care how bumpy the horse is at this moment, and they can escape.
"Protect the master and leave!" The captain of the guard said.
Nowadays, the Taishi is unconscious. As the captain of the guard, of course, the safety of the Taishi is the top priority. He can only order the guards to help the Taishi on the horse and prepare to retreat.
Looking at the approaching cavalry, the captain of the guard gritted his teeth: "First team, follow me up and beat these bastards."
If you want to cover the retreat of the master, you must leave some people to stop these enemies, otherwise, no one can escape.
"You protect the master from leaving, and I'll take someone!" One person grabbed the captain of the guard.
The captain of the guard saw that it was the deputy general Halla. Now, he is the only one general left.
"No, Lord Harada, it's important for you to protect the master!" With that, the captain of the guard rushed up against the galloping cavalry.
"Withdraw!" Looking at the back of the captain of the guard, Hala took the remaining 200 people, escorted Tuo Tuo, and retreated from the north.
The situation here has shocked the soldiers who are attacking the city.
At this moment, the return gun has been difficult to hit the first round of stone bullets in the rain of scattered cannons all over the sky: at this time, hundreds of return guns have been added, and there are only ten that can be used. And the number of people returning the gun is still decreasing.
Yue Kuo Chaer, who was about to launch a general attack, turned around and immediately felt cold: the soul supporting the whole army's attack, and the handsome flag behind him had disappeared. The generals under the handsome flag are gone.
Taishi, where is it? Where are those tall adults? All they can see is the cavalry rushing up fiercely.
"Brother Pan, you take someone to chase the leader of the tartar, and I will take you to the city." Zhao Zixiong said quickly.
It was still a step late. After solving the resistance of the tars, the rest of the tars seemed to have ten legs. They were still here, but in a blink of an eye, the other party ran without a trace, and the tar officials did not catch them. The two were quite dissatisfied with such results, so the soldiers were divided into two ways, one The road went to chase the officials of the tars, and all the way to the bottom of the Gaoyou Mansion to explode the tars**.
There is an old saying that the poor bandit is not to chase, but there is also a poem called, it is appropriate to chase the poor bandit bravely, and not to be a famous student bully.
Pan Yuanshao took his 2,000 people, as if he had taken a stimulant, slapped the horse desperately and chased forward.
There is a high official of the Tatars in front of him. The biggest official of the Tatars is the imperial division of the current dynasty. If this high official is caught, it will be a great victory that shocks the whole country and will greatly inspire the morale of the soldiers.
However, Pan Yuanshao did not catch a few senior officials except for a few single Tatar soldiers. The other party ran too fast!
Soon, Pan Yuanshao looked at the small force of the Tutars and entered the northern battalion, so he had no choice but to retreat back.
The army in the north of the tars has at least tens of thousands of people. I'm afraid that my two thousand cavalry will suffer when they get close.
The handsome flag is gone, and the courage to support the soldiers to fight has also disappeared.
The handsome flag behind them is the driving force for the soldiers to move forward. They are not afraid of sacrifice and move forward bravely, because the Taishi also follows behind them and supervises the battle in person. They have no way out. Moreover, after breaking through the city, they can go in and revel. They are all waiting for the moment that makes people's blood spurt.
However, now, everything has changed. They feel that they have become an abandoned army. When they have no spiritual motivation, they have no courage to fight to the death.
At this time, the return gun has hit a large stone on the wall, and the wall has been a little loose. As long as it is smashed a few more times, the wall will collapse.
"Ban, bang, bang." The same sound of fire came behind them. They looked back and saw a team of cavalry killing fiercely.
Is there any hope of living in such a place?
The tattars were finally discouraged. They no longer moved forward, but chose to withdraw from this damn place before the cavalry behind them arrived. They put oil on their feet and were ready to run away.
"Do not run, continue to attack!" Yue Kuocha shouted hoarsely.
Although the handsome flag behind him is gone, this does not mean that there is no chance. Yue Kuochaer knows that if he can attack to this extent, Gaoyou Prefecture will soon take it down. At this time, whoever has the most resolute will can win.
Yue Kuo Chaer waved a whip and beat all the soldiers who tried to retreat back, and then charged.
"Ban!" The sky in Zhang Yang's hand rang, and the bullet passed by quickly, hitting the eyebrows of the moon.
Before Yue Kuo Chaer's whip was put down, his body fell from the horse's back, and the last general in the Tuttar's charging camp fell to the ground.
The dragons have no leader, and all the soldiers no longer attack hard. They know that they have completely failed this time. The nearly 200,000 troops who came to attack this time are only these people.
What can survive is not the most brave, but the most "smart" soldiers. They threw down their weapons one after another and fled to the north.
Escape to the south? I'm afraid there will be an ambush in the south, to the east, which is the direction of the other party's cavalry rushing. Only by escaping to the north, and Baoying City is still in the hands of the officers and soldiers. Only by escaping to Baoying City can there be a way to live.
At this time, there were still tens of thousands of tars in the position, but the disappearance of the handsome flag and the entry of Zhao Zixiong's cavalry became the last straw to crush the camel.
Zhao Zixiong's cavalry put away the sky, put on a standard saber, and began to kill the fallen tars.
If at ordinary times, they absolutely avoid falling into a hand-to-hand fight with the tars. This kind of saber is a weapon used by the cavalry made by Zhang ** based on the experience of later generations. It is light in weight and easy to carry with Tianque, and it is easy to kill. However, if you confront the Tutar's cavalry head-on, you can't gain an advantage at all.
Those waist knives and spears are the most suitable equipment for cavalry in cold weapons. If they form a queue to kill, Zhang Yang's cavalry are lambs that can be slaughtered by others.
However, now the situation is different. Thetars are running for their lives, and no one wants to resist. They know that they have completely failed this time. How to escape is the most important thing.
Two thousand cavalry rushed into the middle of tens of thousands of tars, as if a red-hot soldering iron was stuffed into the cheese, and easily killed the tartars into a river of blood.
In order to prevent accidental injury, the soldiers at the head of the city have stopped shooting at this moment. They quietly watched their cavalry show their power, and their eyes were calm as usual. They knew that the most intense battle was finally over.
Unexpectedly, he gathered almost all his troops and fought with the tars on the battlefield in the east. The tars were so brave. The tars seemed to have infinite energy. They destroyed a batch, and another batch came up. The soldiers were numb, and their faces had long been blackened by black gunpowder. The battle lasted for several hours. The tars After heavy casualties, they still approached the head of the city, especially the return gun, which was covered by the vast majority of scattered fireworks. The group of soldiers still did not give up, still advancing, advancing, and letting the stones hit their own wall.
If the tars come a few more times, I'm afraid the city wall can really collapse. After the stone just smashed up, you can feel the city wall shaking violently. This time, the gun is really powerful.
In the last period, Zhang Yang took over the Tianque of an injured soldier and personally entered the front line to fight with the soldiers.
"Cry, go out with me and kill." Zhang Yang said. Zhang Yang's last guard, who stayed in Gaoyou Mansion, was also a cavalry.
"Brother, it's dangerous. Now that the tartars have been beaten away by us, let's temporarily remn it!" Lv Zhen said.
Dangerous? Now is the time to beat the water dog! Zhang Yang shouted, "The legs and feet are fast. Come out with me to chase the tars!"
Many soldiers responded, and they came out one after another and walked under the city wall.
"Lv Zhen, keep your troops and guard the gate for the time being." Zhang Yang said. In addition, the water army of Bian Yuanheng was ordered to move south and bombard the South Route Army of the Tutars.
Nowadays, the tars have been beaten to pieces. Although the remaining tartars still have tens of thousands, they have been afraid. At this time, it is the right time to make the soldiers happy. In the past few days, the war has always been a defensive way to retreat. Now, taking the initiative to attack the tartars, the soldiers must be very I am happy.
Although the Tatars in the south and north are still established, there is no doubt that the absolute main force of the Tatars who attack here today is the most elite force of the Tatars. After the Tatars in the north and south get the news here, as long as they are not fools, they should think about it. How to retreat.
Drive the tartars back to the north. The tartars will definitely return to Baoying. Next, it's their turn to attack.
