Timur Pi's general Tie Guduo, who was at the forefront, was only a sprint away from the enemy.
He could clearly see the expression on the enemy's face. Tieguduo slashed at the enemy with a machete,
But the hooded man holding the firearm in front of him didn't even blink, with a vague mocking smile on his face.
Then, Tie Guduo clearly saw a flash of light erupting from the muzzle of the firearm, followed by severe pain, and then completely lost consciousness.
Tie Guduo slipped off the horse, and the flesh on his face was torn open by bullet fragments. After a few twists and turns, he ran out of breath. The vanguard, who had always won every battle under the Sultan, capsized in the ditch this time.
The sound of explosions rang wildly in the ears of Timurid's army. Zhu Di held his sword and commanded. Every time he swung his sword in the air, it was like the scythe of the god of death that ruthlessly harvested lives. A wave of shots harvested a bunch of lives.
Everyone who was shot by a firearm had no human shape on his face, but looked like a monster who didn't know what to call him.
boom! ! !
Although the Ming army's firearms fired without any gaps, they could not withstand the enemy's overwhelming numbers, and something slipped through the net. The two armies collided instantly.
In today's era, there is a military consensus that soldiers holding firearms are afraid of being punched in the face at close range, so firearms are rarely used on the battlefield. With this kind of firepower, it is better to use cannons.
Zhu Di's divine machine camp is absolutely unique in this time period.
Moreover, Zhu Di had been thinking about setting up the Shenji Battalion five years ago. How could he find a way to make up for the shortcomings of the Shenji Battalion's fear of close combat?
Zhu Di didn't even need to give an order. Lieutenant General Zhang Yu reacted, picked up the bugle from his waist and blew it. Zhu Di's men formed a mixed group and instantly changed their formations.
The Mongolian man who was in the first row of shooting simply abandoned his gun and took out his knife. He slit the enemy's throat with the knife, then grabbed the enemy's horse and got on his horse. His movements were smooth and smooth, all done in one go.
The Shenji Battalion of the second row quickly replenished the front row. After the Shenji Battalion of the first row evacuated, there was another uninterrupted shooting.
Mengxu Timur's soldiers are still playing with cold weapons. Where have they seen such powerful firearms?
He was caught off guard at the moment, and suffered heavy losses after just one encounter. This was still part of Zhu Di's force, and he had not even used the cavalry behind him.
The sounds of fighting and screams on the battlefield were mixed together. What was just a vast and quiet world turned into a hell on earth in the blink of an eye.
On the battlefield, only fighting is the most real.
Zhu Di naturally didn't know that the one he shot down in the first round was Tie Guduo, the pioneer of the Timur Empire. But even if Zhu Di knew it, he probably wouldn't be able to feel any emotions in his heart. There were too many outstanding figures who died at the hands of King Yan.
And Mengxu Timur did not know that the enemy general in front of him was the famous King of Yan in the North. Mengxu Timur saw that his troops had suffered heavy losses, and he quickly adjusted in his mind.
It was because he misjudged the attack power of the enemy's firearms that he suffered so many losses when his own troops came face to face.
However, there is no problem with the basic judgment of firearms. Firearms are still afraid of close quarters. It is just the excellent combat capabilities of the enemy soldiers that temporarily cover up this shortcoming.
Mengxu Timur raised his hand high, and the herald beside him immediately sent down the order,
Withdraw.
Mengxu Timur crossed the battlefield and looked at Zhu Di with interest. Zhu Di also happened to look at Mengxu Timur. Their eyes collided in mid-air, sparking a flash of lightning.
"Hahaha, I like him!"
Mengxu Timur laughed heartily, raised his whip and pointed at Zhu Di.
"Haha, I'm going to kill him."
Zhu Di was on the other side of the battle formation, sneering sinisterly.
Under Mengxu Timur's military order, Timur's army consciously retracted and retreated. Zhu Di observed for a long time and found that the enemy retreated in an orderly manner and found no opportunity to break the formation and escape.
He held down his own soldiers and horses and watched helplessly as the enemy troops receded like a sea wave, leaving only mangled corpses on the ground.
The situation on Zhu Di's side is not good, and there are many dead and wounded soldiers. But Zhu Di has no time to count the number of dead and wounded soldiers, and no time to treat the wounded. The arrow is still on the string, and both sides are waiting for the opportunity.
Zhang Yu rushed to Zhu Di's side and said urgently,
"Your Highness, the enemy's retreat distance is exactly the limit of our range!"
As mentioned before, Zhu Di's modified firearms sacrificed range for attack power, and even the range was much lower than that of ordinary firearms.
What is terrifying is that the generals on Timur's side were not intimidated by the astonishing attack power of the firearms, but were still calmly and visually measuring the attack distance of the firearms.
Zhu Di said in a deep voice,
"The enemy is very powerful. They should be a very important army of Timur. Let's kill them here!"
Zhang Yu took a breath of cold air and nodded in agreement. At a glance, there were more enemy troops than they imagined. They were so densely packed in front of them that they couldn't even see the end.
Moreover, the enemy troops are expanding the encirclement on the east and west sides. As long as this bag is tightened, it is only a matter of time before the mixed group of Mongolian troops is annihilated.
The implication of His Highness King Yan’s words couldn’t be clearer.
at this time! now! here!
Fight to the death!
Zhu Di quickly ordered,
"Zhang Yu, I am personally commanding the Shenji Battalion here. You bring a force of soldiers and horses and push them out on both sides. You must not let the enemy complete the encirclement."
Zhang Yu was ordered to bring a group of cavalry and separate them. The Shenji Battalion could not be surrounded by enemies from all sides, so Zhang Yu had to prevent the enemy from encircling them.
Another soldier beside Mengxu Timur, Xue Muer, whispered,
"Lord Sultan, the enemy army has divided into groups."
It was only when Xue Muer opened her mouth that she realized that she was a woman. She had always been with Mengxu Timur. Most people thought she was a military prostitute brought by the Sultan with his army, but it didn't look like that.
Mengxu Timur's eyes flashed and he couldn't help but said with joy,
"Haha, it doesn't matter. The enemy is alone and there can be no reinforcements."
Xue Muer's voice sounded, and she pondered for a while,
"Sultan, you mean that if they have reinforcements, they will never choose to divide their troops, right?
It was precisely because they had no reinforcements that they eagerly divided their small army to find a way to survive. "
Mengxu Timur looked at Xue Mu'er with satisfaction and nodded. Xue Mu'er's voice was not sweet, and was a bit hoarse compared to ordinary female voices. She was covered in armor, but she had a different kind of temptation.
"Compared with you, Tie Guduo is like a stupid pig."
Xue Muer continued,
"Lord Sultan, what should we do next?"
Mengxu Timur looked in the direction of Zhu Di and said with a smile,
"It's just a fight between trapped beasts, we're just waiting to tighten the trap..."
