Three days later.
The Dalong soldiers and horses that had been repairing Jianzhou City for three days once again set off in a mighty manner and rushed to Anzhou Mansion to capture the Queen. Wanyan commanded the Anzhou City where the two of them led the remaining soldiers to settle.
Over the past three days, they have carefully cleaned up the battlefields inside and outside Jianzhou City.
The corpses of both Pao Ze and the enemy soldiers were all placed and buried together.
The weather in June and July is when the autumn tigers are rampant and show their claws. If a large number of corpses are not handled carefully, the plague will breed.
Although it feels uncomfortable to bury my comrades in a foreign land with my own hands, for the sake of the overall situation, this is the only way to do it.
Three days later, Jianzhou City was still in ruins, but it no longer looked like a miserable scene like hell on earth.
All that is left is the desolation and desolation of the city.
The army set out in the morning, and when the sun was high in the sky, a horse riding from south to north galloped in.
"Hush!"
Liu Mingzhi was riding on his horse, looking at the dilapidated and desolate Jianzhou City, and shook his head with a complicated expression.
Jianzhou actually fell.
I thought I could still hold on to Yue Guangjing, but it seems that Laoshuai Yun and the others' offensive is very fierce, and the speed of soaking has exceeded my expectation.
Taking out the telescope from the saddle on the horse, Liu Mingzhi looked around, then put away the telescope and continued heading north on horseback.
He didn't need to take a closer look at the tragic situation in Jianzhou City. Just the ruins of the city and the endless new tombs not far away were enough to explain everything.
Along the way, he did not encounter any soldiers escorting prisoners, which further illustrates the serious situation of the Northern Expedition.
No prisoners will be taken out, only fighting to the death!
Liu Mingzhi continued to pursue the traces of the army. On the official road from Jizhou to Kanzhou in the Jin Kingdom, soldiers and horses led by Wan Mingliang and Yunchong were engaged in an offensive and defensive battle in an unknown canyon.
Yun Chong leaned over and looked at the sand table in front of him: "Deputy Commander, this is the last dangerous route to Kanzhou. As long as we pass this canyon, we will no longer have to be controlled by the Turks' fire bull formation.
We can also use this canyon to try the commander's counterattack plan, so that the Turks and the remnants of the Jin Kingdom in Jizhou can have a taste of their Fire Bull Formation. "
"Okay, here's the order, the officers and soldiers of the front army will launch a feint attack. Once the enemy comes with the Fire Bull Formation, they will immediately use the Train Formation to meet the enemy.
This general wants to see whose fire these beasts are more afraid of. "
"Got the order!"
The sound of war drums alerted the dragon troops and horses, as well as the Turks on the other side of the canyon, the 40,000 soldiers and horses united by the Jin Kingdom.
"General Hua Tuwu, the dragon troops are about to attack Sandaowan Canyon. Use the Fire Ox Formation to defend against the enemy!"
Once they rush through the Sandaowan Canyon, our Kanzhou of Daikin will face the pressure of more than 100,000 enemy troops again! "
A Turkic commander wearing a wild goose feather looked at the anxious-looking Jin general beside him: "General Ji Mushu, please be patient.
The enemy's war drums have just started, and we don't know if they are feigning an attack. It is not appropriate to rush the cattle into the canyon immediately, lest we fall into their scheme and waste the bullocks we finally raised. "
Ji Mushu, who looked anxious, gradually calmed down after hearing Hua's sudden words: "It's okay, I am too anxious, general. The Fire Bull Formation was trained by you Turks, just watch and implement it.
The general has the full authority to assist you. Unfortunately, the mountain walls on both sides of Sandao Bay are too steep. Otherwise, the general would have sent two groups of soldiers and horses to both sides to assist you with thunder, stone and rolling wood. "
The Turkic general Hua Tuwu shook his head regretfully: "There is no way, there are not many such precipitous terrains in Sandaowan Canyon among the three prefectures of Jianzhou and Kanzhou.
Since we can't take advantage of the terrain, we will guard the exit of the canyon.
With the terrain of Sandaowan, even if the enemy forces broke through our Turkic Fire Ox Formation with great effort, with 40,000 elite troops guarding this natural danger, it would still be enough for the enemy army to drink a few cups! "
While the two were talking, the shouts of killing from the other side of the canyon were transmitted directly to the ears of the coalition guards along the long canyon.
Hua suddenly looked nervous, waved the command flag in his hand, and shouted in Turkic dialect.
"Prepare the Fire Bull Formation!"
Hundreds of Turks led hundreds of docile and strong yaks slowly towards the entrance of the canyon.
These robust cattle have sharp swords tied to their horns, and long firecrackers tied to their tails.
The Turks are not local rich people, so they naturally do not want the yaks they have worked so hard to raise to go to waste.
According to the topography of Sandaowan Canyon, just using firecrackers to drive them away is enough to arouse the madness of these cattle to move forward and run rampant.
Burning oxtail is something you would do ruthlessly only if you have no choice but to do so.
As the shouts of death in the canyon gradually approached, the crackling sound of firecrackers sounded.
The yak, which had been extremely docile just now, suddenly became impatient. It stretched its neck and broke free from the ropes of the Turks around it. With a large number of shieldmen behind it, it instinctively rushed forward.
Later, two groups of cattle were surrounded by Turkic soldiers and entered the entrance of the canyon. They repeated their tactics and rushed towards the other end of the canyon.
Seeing the cattle disappearing into the smoke, and the shaking of the earth gradually becoming lighter, Jin Kingdom General Ji Mushu clenched his fist and waved it fiercely.
"With such a canyon, no matter how strong the sword and shield soldiers are, they can't even hope to withstand the brutal charging of the cattle.
General Hua Tuwu, how much do you think the enemy army will be damaged by the Fire Bull Formation this time? "
"It's hard to say, but I'll wait and see!"
The two were discussing the casualties of the Dalong Soldiers and Horses Association.
In the long canyon, the dragon's vanguard soldiers and horses could not help but become nervous as they felt the increasingly intense shock. Under the enemy's fire bull formation, many Pao Ze had died in the battle one after another due to suffocation.
However, the terrain of Sanfu was dangerous and there was no way around it. Even though the enemy troops in front of them had deployed a fire bull formation, they had to continue to move forward.
To this day, the deputy commander said that the weird wheelbarrow in their hands could destroy the enemy's fire bull formation. They were willing to believe in their general, but they couldn't help but be nervous when they remembered how Pao Ze died tragically under the hooves of the bull in the past.
A captain held the sweaty flag and waved it hard.
"Light the fire, step back fifteen steps, set up another line of defense, step back twenty steps, and defend with sword and shield soldiers."
"Got the order!"
Following the captain's order, the wheelbarrow filled with kerosene suddenly burst into flames.
The Dalong forward soldiers looked at the blazing fire in the iron pot on the wheelbarrow, quickly stepped back more than ten steps, and ignited the second line of fire.
Then they all huddled behind the shields of the sword and shield soldiers, holding the weapons in their hands tightly, and kept begging the cattle on the opposite side not to rush over.
The vibrations became clearer and clearer, and many Dalong soldiers were trembling involuntarily.
If the enemy forces are evenly matched, forget it, charge forward and everyone will decide whether to live or die.
However, a herd of cattle that had lost their minds and gone mad and had only brute force rushed towards them along the long canyon road. The soldiers really didn't know how to resist.
When the cattle came into view through the firelight, the forward soldiers were so nervous that they didn't even dare to breathe. They instinctively picked up their weapons and leaned together.
I don't know if the prayers of the soldiers came to light, but the herd of cattle that was moving forward instinctively stopped when the more than ten bullocks charging ahead were fifty steps away from the first line of fire.
The cattle behind didn't know what was going on, but they still rushed forward with all their strength.
The sharp blades on the horns directly cut through the bodies of the surrounding cattle, and the cattle suddenly became violent again. However, the cattle squeezed each other, spun around, and still did not dare to approach the burning wheelbarrows.
"It worked. The cattle are really afraid of fire. Brothers, push the cart to attack and drive these mad cows back."
I don't know who shouted, and the nervous forward soldiers howled and swarmed towards the handrails of the wheelbarrow, struggling to push the burning wheelbarrow towards the messy herd of cattle.
The scorching temperature made the cattle feel the threat of death, and their animal instinct caused them to turn around and rush towards the canyon where they came from.
Wan Mingliang looked at the scouts of the forward army in front of him, laughed and patted the table.
"Okay, great.
The three armies were ordered to take advantage of the gap opened by the Turkic cattle that rushed back to fight their way out of the canyon and went straight to Kanzhou, the Kingdom of Jin, to join forces! "
"Got the order!"
Yun Chong looked at the excited Wan Mingliang, smiled lightly and beat his palms.
"Okay, due to the terrain, we were unable to take a detour and join forces, so the enemy took the opportunity to use the Fire Ox Formation to lose tens of thousands of our soldiers.
Now I can finally get back to him, and let the enemy have a taste of the mad cows' rampage! "
