Chapter 196 First Battle(1/2)
Lulong Mountain.
The Yuan family's soldiers and horses passed through the valley like a black river.
Guo Tu was wearing military uniform and looked at the dry blood on the ground.
At this moment, he seemed to see Mo Zhai almost killed here by the Yuan family's children.
If Mo Zhai had died at that time, wouldn’t he have been forced to send troops by Beidi?
This thought flashed through his mind.
Then, his eyes turned cold.
To him, the question now makes no sense.
At this moment, he will be on a road that cannot be turned back.
Perhaps Dasong people will call him and Yuan Li a traitor in the future.
But so what?
Success and defeat of the enemy.
One day, the cavalry of Beidi broke through the rivers and mountains of Dasong.
The Yuan family will only be a hero in the new dynasty, and he will continue to enjoy supreme wealth.
"Have you gone to attack the King of Yan?" Guo Tu said to Yuan Xiu.
"When they go, they will block the King of Yan's troops in Pingjun." Yuan Xiudao.
Guo Tu nodded.
He did not forget the existence of King Yan, but the most important thing now is Yanguan.
As long as the Yan Pass is broken and the Northern Di army enters the pass, the King of Yan will not be able to escape death.
Therefore, he had to concentrate all his troops to attack Yan Pass and not make any mistakes.
But he knew very well that when the Yuan family's troops moved, the King of Yan could not remain indifferent.
So he thought of dividing his troops to restrain the King of Yan. 20,000 Yuan's miscellaneous soldiers dragged the King of Yan in Pingjun, and 20,000 miscellaneous soldiers went to attack Yancheng, which distracted the King of Yan.
...
Pingjun.
Less than half a day after the royal family entered here, an army of chaotic flags and numerous armor styles stood in front of the army, with a total of more than 20,000 people.
In front of the army.
A general ran horses and shouted loudly: "King Yan, I am Dong Qi, the commander of the Yuan family, and I have not stepped forward to die quickly."
When the royal family army was marching, there were always speculations in front of the investigation.
When he learned that there was an army blocking the road ahead, Chang Wei ordered the army to march while changing formations.
When the army stopped, the army had become a large horizontal formation used in combat.
Now, they are ready to attack the army that is only in front of them.
"Your Highness, will you fight?" Chang Wei asked.
This is just an army that looks like a miscellaneous soldier from the Yuan family.
The purpose is naturally to hinder them from rushing to Yanguan.
Zhao Xu nodded slightly, "Pull the cannon forward."
Since the Yuan family started a war, Yan Wei sent messages.
On the way, he learned that Guo Tu had divided his troops and wanted to hold him back.
With his order, a hundred city guard cannons that fired 32 kilograms of shells were pushed into front of the formation.
Twenty field artillery were pulled to both wings of the royal palace army formation, with ten gates on one side.
"Let the cavalry prepare!" Zhao Xu ordered again.
The 4,000 cavalry brought by Zhongli this time acted as light cavalry, using their mobility to be responsible for chasing and attacking.
The 1,500 cavalry under Chen Hu's command were all replaced with plate armor, and the horses were also dressed in armor and equipment, playing the role of real heavy cavalry.
Crossing Yanshan Mountain, the Yanzhou area is flat.
In such a terrain, heavy cavalry is the nightmare of infantry.
However, before Chen Hu was allowed to charge, he needed to use artillery to disrupt the opponent's formation, so that they could not organize effective resistance.
"What?"
When the Yan King soldiers dodged a path and iron pipes with metallic luster appeared in front of the formation, Dong Qi's heart trembled.
After receiving the news that he was about to attack Yanguan, he thought Guo Tu was crazy.
But Guo Tu mentioned that the Northern Di army would arrive soon, and after he cooperated with the Yuan family to attack Yanguan, he immediately made his own choice.
Standing on the side of the Yuan family.
So after receiving Guo Tu's order, he came to call out decisively.
He naturally had no hope of defeating the King of Yan.
But he must be able to delay as long as he can.
Otherwise, when Beidi entered the pass, how could he perform his merits in front of Yuan Li?
Furthermore, he was born into a wealthy family in Pingjun and was already in harmony with the Yuan family.
In their opinion, Yanzhou is over and Dasong is over.
Once Beidi enters the pass, it will destroy Dasong like the autumn wind sweeping away fallen leaves.
When will you not strive to make contributions at this time?
He was thinking.
Suddenly, the soldiers behind the iron pipe polished the fire fold.
Instinctively realized that something was wrong, so he immediately ran into his own army.
When I had not taken a few steps, suddenly, "Boom boom boom..." a thunderous explosion broke out.
The loud noise scared him like a silly chicken.
He sat down and was frightened and neighed, lifted his front hooves and threw him off his horse.
Just as he fell to the ground, he felt several strong winds passing by him.
Black shadows flew out of the military formation behind him.
"Shisheshesheshesheshesheshesheshesheshesheshesheshesheshesheshesheshesheshesheshesheshesheshesheshesheshesheshesheshesheshesheshesheshesheshesheshesheshesheshesheshesheshesheshesheshesheshe
One after another, the sound of pork being beaten up sounded.
He looked at him and saw several gaps in the dense military formation.
There were about a dozen soldiers in each gap and the dead soldiers kept screaming.
At this moment, his head was cumbersome and he couldn't figure out what was going on.
And for the soldiers, Dong Qi was lucky.
The moment the loud noise came, many soldiers were so scared that they shook their bodies, and some even sat directly on the ground.
But it seems to be just an appetizer.
Before they could react to what the loud noise was, they suddenly felt the faces were wet and sticky.
A soldier wiped his face and found that his hands were covered with blood.
He looked to his side like a zombie wrestling his neck, and saw that only half of the soldier next to him was left with his head stuck to his face, and blood was spurting out of his neck.
And in a small area behind this soldier, there was no living person.
He had never seen such a tragic scene. An extreme fear instantly occupied his whole body and mind, and his whole body seemed to be frozen and unable to move.
"Boom boom boom..." Just when he had not figured out what was going on, a loud noise came from the Yan King's army again.
He saw it at this time.
A black afterimage rushed towards them, and flesh and blood flew everywhere.
That was the weapon brought by the King of Yan! It was the iron pipe.
The legs of the Yuan family soldiers were no longer controlled, as if they were nailed to the ground.
He stepped hard, and now, he had only one idea to escape!
"A magic!"
A soldier could no longer bear it. He covered his head and shouted like a madman, threw down the sword in his hand and ran away.
The tense fear in the hearts of the other soldiers finally spread out in this sound.
To be continued...
