Chapter 1153 Boiling a frog in warm water (1)

The number of various military ordnances was among the imperial guards of the Song Dynasty, but the military information was top secret.

However, even though he saw that the Iron Cavalry ahead was blocked, Du Lei and others had no intention of retreating.

The hot air balloon is here.

As long as the hot air balloon army can fly over the Song army's positions, even if the Song army has grenade launchers, it will only end up being annihilated.

Although they knew that there were magical artifacts like sky-rushing cannons in the Song army, they undoubtedly still hoped that the Hot Air Balloon Army could make contributions based on its number.

The sky-rushing cannon is a way to restrain the hot air balloon, but if the hot air balloon flies above the sky-rushing cannon, will the sky-rushing cannon be only bombed?

Hundreds of hot air balloons soon arrived in front of the Song army's position.

There was indeed a sound of cannons in the Song army's positions.

Sky-rushing cannons hit the shells high.

In terms of power, the cannon shells of the sky cannon are not as good as grenade launchers, but the range is farther. The accuracy is slightly better.

Flames and smoke exploded in the air.

As the generals of the Song army's Chongtian Cannon Battalion ordered, the Yuan army's hot air balloons fell down like meteor showers at night.

This made the Yuan Dynasty hot air balloon army, which had never tried the power of the sky-storm cannon, instantly became panicked.

The soldiers who were still on the hot air balloon looked at the hot air balloon next to them and were blown up to pieces, almost glaring out their eyes.

What's even more terrible is that the hot air balloon that was originally commanding in the army was just blown up by the Song army.

The generals on the hot air balloon had no idea that they fell to the corner and turned into meat paste.

The soldiers without generals are confused, and the hot air balloon without flags is like a headless fly.

After finally coming back to their senses, all the hot air balloons left in the air were at a loss because they didn't know whether to retreat or advance at this time.

And below, there were dark things rushing into the sky.

Many hot air balloons were exploded again and fell to the ground.

This time, the soldiers on the hot air balloons learned their lessons after all, and stopped hesitating, and turned around and ran towards the back.

Without the command of the general, they had no courage to move forward at all.

On the ground.

The generals such as Du Lei in the Yuan army were still dumbfounded at this moment.

They just watched their hot air balloons get bombarded twice, and then they retreated like this.

Why did you withdraw now?

After just two bombardments, the hot air balloons they lost were actually only a hundred. They should have the spare energy to fly directly to the Song army's sky cannon camp!

Du Lei was anxious and angry.

However, he could not command the hot air balloons above. Because the hot air balloon army was organized separately, it was not organized by him.

In front, clusters of mushroom clouds were still rising one after another.

I don’t know how many Yuan army cavalry died under this bombardment.

It is no exaggeration to say that the road ahead was rushing towards the Song army's positions that they had accumulated with flesh and blood.

"withdraw!"

Du Lei had an angry look on his face and shouted in anger.

Although there were still infantry under their command not charging, it was obviously meaningless now.

Even the cavalry were still suffering heavy losses from such bombardment, and the infantry would only be even worse if they rushed forward. I am afraid that their people would die, and they might not be able to swallow this Song army.

Du Lei's estimate of the combat effectiveness of the Song army reached a few more steps in his heart, and he couldn't help but murmur, "To destroy the Song army, it must be five times its strength..."

The sound of gold sounds in the Yuan army.

The infantry rear army turned into a front army and slowly retreated towards Songxi County.

However, there were not many cavalry retreating from the artillery fire in front. Except for those who had not yet rushed to the coverage of the artillery fire, almost no one in front was spared.

This was a tough battle that lasted not long, and the Yuan army's cavalry would probably have suffered more than 10,000 losses.

Du Lei and others looked at the few thousand iron cavalry rushing back from behind, and their faces turned red and they almost started to curse.

If they had known this, they would not have chased him out of Songxi County even if they had been killed. This was simply a humiliation.

Although we have roughly figured out how powerful the Song imperial guards are, the price they pay is too high, right?

"kill!"

What Du Lei and others did not expect was that just as they retreated, there were tides of shouts of killing in the Song army's position.

The cannon sound stopped.

However, there were densely packed Song army cavalry coming out of the position.

They held the Shenlong gun in their hands and approached the Yuan army cavalry behind at an extremely fast speed.

The Yuan army's war horses were faster than the Great Song horses, but at this moment, they were blocked by infantry in front of them and did not dare to go around easily.

The result can be imagined by using bows and arrows to resist the Shenlong gun.

Many people in the Iron Cavalry that had just survived the artillery fire in the Yuan army soon fell off the horse by the Shenlong gun.

It was not until the Yuan army hot air balloons in the air that someone finally reorganized the overall situation and turned around again that the Song cavalry retreated back to the position.

And in this short period of time, thousands of cavalry of the Yuan army were probably killed.

This amount is nothing, but it's too annoying.

Du Lei and others all had their faces ashen and gritted their teeth.

The Song army is really too bullying!

However, they had no confidence to attack the Song army's positions again. They could only lead their troops to continue to rush back to Songxi in shame.

Gradually, torches emerged on the official road.

The Yuan army gradually became farther and farther away.

There were bursts of shouting in the Song army's position.

The groups regrouped and lined up, piled up the corpses and burned them, and continued to move south.

What they should have done is almost done. If they attack Songxi again, they are likely to play with fire and burn themselves.

After such a great victory, the Tiansu army was full of joy.

As expected, the reputation of their Tiansu Army will be launched because of this battle. They will legitimate their reputation.

They are the real imperial guards of the Song Dynasty!

The generals in the army, including He Chenghua, Zhou Zhangqiang, and other military generals were also overjoyed. They were quite content with this battle, at least they did not make any mistakes in command and strategy.

But what they were afraid of was that the Tiansha Army outside Zhenghe County performed much better than theirs.

Chen Diaoyan, the commander of the Tiansha Army, also known as Chen Daju and Chen Diaoyan. After Pu Shougen surrendered to the Yuan Dynasty in Quanzhou, Zhang Shijie joined forces with Han, She and other people to fight Pu Shougen in Xinnan, Fujian. Chen Diaoyan revolted with his father Chen Wengui and his uncle Chen Guilong and others to support Zhang Shijie's attack on Pu Shougen.

Later, Zhang Shijie followed the small court to travel overseas, and the righteous army fell apart.

Chen Diaoyan occupied Zhangzhou and since then became the famous leader of the Renmin Army. Later, he was suppressed by Yuan general Suodu, sneaked into She Cave, and joined forces with Mrs. Xu to occupy Gao'an Village in Zhangzhou.
