Wu Liuqi was frightened and frightened. He broke out in a cold sweat and kept shouting. He wanted to stop the infantry on the verge of collapse. But facing the new army cavalry that came and went like the wind, with sharp blades and spears, what could they do to stop these rogue infantry? ah!
In just half a stick of incense, the military formation of 10,000 thieves and infantry troops had turned into a pile of mud.
Not to mention these refugee infantry, even the five hundred personal guards under his command could not withstand the assault of the New Army cavalry and fled back.
A rough count showed that there were less than 300 of the 500 bodyguards, and all of them were injured.
In front of the "extremely arrogant" cavalry of the New Army, let alone the thieves and infantry, even the Sanzhen cavalry and the Daliang cavalry might not be able to take advantage!
Just the terrifying murderous intent radiating from the inside out frightened the thieves' infantry so much that they dared not move forward, let alone fight.
A thousand New Army cavalry, with invincible resources, forced the thieves' infantry to completely collapse.
The remaining thieves and infantry troops did not dare to step forward at all, and they all fled in all directions.
"Brother, let's evacuate quickly. If we don't evacuate, we may die here!"
Wu Liuqi was so frightened that he grabbed Wu Liuba's arm and said, "Brother, look, these 10,000 infantry troops are no match for the official army. Let alone 10,000, they are 56,000 or 100,000." , What’s the use, it can’t withstand the iron hooves of the army!”
"Let's go, let's go quickly, brother, please!"
Wu Liuba frowned, grasped the handle of the long knife tightly with five fingers, wrapped the reins of the war horse around the back of his hand with his other hand, and shouted angrily: "Shut up, this is just half a stick of incense, we will withdraw, you How can I explain to the commander when I go back?"
"Beat the drums and bang the clappers, and the whole army will counterattack. Those who retreat will be killed without mercy!"
"You, the bodyguards, immediately stop the fleeing soldiers. Anyone who dares to retreat will be killed!"
After saying these words, he immediately urged his war horse, its hoofs flew forward, and he rushed forward.
In this battle, he has made up his mind. If he doesn't succeed, he will be benevolent. Even if he dies in battle, he will die vigorously. He must not be afraid of death and run for his life. Otherwise, how will he be able to hold his head high in front of the commander in the future?
Under the supervision of the bodyguards under the Wu brothers, they finally stopped the disintegration of the infantry and managed to organize their formation to fight again.
But as soon as the infantry came into contact, they were routed again and were still of no use.
These infantry troops alone could not stop the back-and-forth attacks of the New Army cavalry.
A thousand cavalrymen rushed left and right, in the midst of a tens of thousands of troops, as if they were in an uninhabited land, slashing and killing wantonly. Where sabers were wielded, heads were rolling. Where lances were stabbed, corpses lay everywhere. The whole world was stained with blood. famous.
Wu Liuba held a long sword in his hand, took the lead, and personally engaged the New Army cavalry, hoping to kill the New Army cavalry with his own hands and restore the decline of the infantry.
Unfortunately, as soon as he engaged in the battle, he immediately panicked!
Wu Liuba's arms were extremely strong and he was very skilled in martial arts. A 60-pound sword was like a bamboo pole in his hand. However, he could not take advantage of the new army's cavalry. Instead, he repeatedly fell into danger and was almost killed by the formation. on the spot.
Just because the New Army cavalry all fight in formation, with four or five cavalrymen attacking at the same time as one person, with several long knives and several spears, even if the gods come down to earth, they will be chopped into pieces!
In the main formation of the Dafeng Army, Li Yizheng and Cao Fengyang were watching the battle. Suddenly Li Yi smiled calmly, pointed at Wu Liuba on the battlefield and commented: "There are so many brave young generals in the bandit army. It's not simple, it's not simple!"
All the generals looked in the direction pointed by Li Yi, and sure enough, four or five New Army cavalry were besieging a young bandit general. However, this young bandit general had some martial arts skills. He was able to defeat five cavalrymen with one, and he was not at a disadvantage, especially that The long sword is so fierce when wielded.
These four or five New Army cavalry could only surround but not attack, and could not get close at all.
Li Yi laughed again, his voice becoming particularly cold.
Cao Fengyang frowned, hearing the hidden meaning of the laughter, and then turned to look at Su Changyu.
Su Changyu understood this, turned over and took off the musket from his horse, loaded the bullet, and galloped straight towards the young bandit general.
Now, Su Changyu was holding a short firegun in one hand, and the horse was getting closer and closer, until he slowed down when he was less than twenty steps away from the young bandit general.
When he was ten steps away, he raised his firecracker.
"boom!"
There is no need to aim at such a close distance.
Just raise your hand and shoot.
With the sound of a gunshot, Tiewan quickly ran towards the bandit general.
now.
Wu Liuba was fighting fiercely with four or five New Army cavalry. He had just driven away two long knives. Before he could take a breath, an iron pellet came in front of him and hit him in the middle of his neck.
"Crack!"
The neck was broken.
The blood in his abdomen was boiling and gushing out.
Wu Liuba was also a rare brave man among the bandits, but it was a pity that he ended up dead in the end.
The only one to blame for Wu Liuba's misfortune was Wu Liuba. Although these five New Army cavalrymen were just ordinary soldiers, the five of them cooperated with each other tacitly, had a clear division of labor, and were well-organized in defense and attack.
No matter how skilled Wu Liuba was in martial arts, he could not defeat his four-handed opponent with two fists, and was suppressed by a few ordinary soldiers.
I have so much resentment that I can't vent it out. I have never felt so aggrieved in my life.
But with all his strength, Wu Liuba didn't even notice Su Changyu galloping towards him.
Moreover, Su Changyu never showed any intention of using a firecracker, and did not fire until he got close.
This shot hit Wu Liuba right in the neck.
With one shot, the high-speed rotating iron ball quickly tore his neck apart, and his head flew out.
He didn't even have time to utter a scream before he flew out from the horse.
Seeing that his eldest brother was killed with one shot, Wu Liuqi roared angrily, drew his sword and killed him. The target was Su Changyu.
The guards on the left and right followed desperately, charging forward to kill together.
Su Changyu, on the other hand, looked calm. He calmly took out the projectiles and pressed them into the barrel of the gun, and finally raised the gun to aim.
Wu Liuqi's mind was filled with revenge. Suddenly he found that the officers and soldiers on the opposite side were aiming their guns at him. He was frightened and hurriedly lowered his head to avoid it.
Unfortunately, I only found out now that it is too late!
"boom!"
There was a gunshot.
An iron ball spun quickly, then penetrated the war horse's neck and hit his chest.
"ah!"
Wu Liuqi let out a shrill scream, fell off his horse, and a mouthful of blood spurted out.
The personal guard was completely panicked. He jumped off his horse and helped Wu Liuqi up for treatment.
Thanks to the war horse blocking him, and the fact that the armor on his chest was made of fine iron, he could still see blood pouring out of his chest.
Several bodyguards dragged Wu Liuqi back as hard as they could.
The other thieves and bandits were in dire straits.
The New Army cavalry who were tired of playing took off the muskets from their backs, raised their guns and started shooting.
At this moment, this battle is basically a foregone conclusion. One of the bandit generals was beheaded on the spot and his head flew off. The other general was seriously injured and was not alive or dead. How could the remaining thieves infantry continue to fight?
The remaining several thousand thieves and infantry troops were as panic-stricken as a lost dog, running away with their lives!
When he came, he was full of fighting spirit and murderous intent, and when he ran away, he was as fast as the wind and very agile!
As for the bodyguards of the Wu brothers, the situation was miserable. They wanted to avenge their master, but they were shot from a long distance and were beaten into pieces. It was terrible to watch.
At the same time, Guo Polu had regrouped a thousand cavalry and completed the formation.
Following the order, a thousand cavalrymen continued to charge. Guo Polu took the lead, shooting out his spear like a dragon and sweeping like the wind. All the thieves and infantry in front of him were slaughtered.
The other cavalrymen followed closely behind, slashing with swords and stabbing with spears, and killing them all the way. The blood was really flowing and corpses were scattered all over the field.
Almost all the 10,000 thieves and infantry troops were wiped out, and not one out of ten escaped alive.
This scene made Zhu Chongyuan in the distance dumbfounded. Ten thousand infantry troops were killed like chickens and sheep by one thousand cavalry troops. What kind of terrifying strength is this?
Moreover, the collapse was so complete that there was no room for resistance. The two young generals did a good job. They defeated the troops like a wave, stopped them in time, took the lead in the charge, and revived morale. As a result, one of them died and the other was injured.
Zhu Chongyuan really found it difficult to accept this result, and so did the other bandit generals.
But at this moment, Guo Polu suddenly rushed to the front of the bandit army, holding a gun with one arm and murderous intent.
All the bandits, including Zhu Chongyuan and other generals, were shaken when they saw this scene, and their faces were as pale as paper.
Just because, on the head of his gun, there was a person's head.
It is the head of Wu Liuba.
"Zhu Chongyuan, the leader of the thieves, listen to me. Today, the imperial commander personally marches and you have been surrounded. If you don't want to die, kneel down and accept your surrender immediately!"
"As a kindhearted person, I must show great mercy and give you a happy life. Otherwise, when I catch you, I will cut you into pieces and turn your bones into ashes!"
"The thief Zhu Chongyuan, did you hear that?"
These angry curses were like knives thrust into Zhu Chongyuan's heart. One can imagine his anger.
