The Vietnamese light cavalry retreated in defeat and dispersed in a familiar manner.
Yue Qing's eyes narrowed and he waved his hand.
"Fire!"
"Da da~~"
Bullet belts came out quickly, and machine guns spit out tongues of fire. The Wu soldiers who were charging forward fell down instantly, including men and horses. Wherever the fan-shaped barrage hit, the lives of the cavalry soldiers were lost!
Compared with the lag and uncertainty of artillery, the machine gun's almost unlimited rate of fire has almost no blind spots.
The vanguard general of the Wu Army who was charging forward fell to the ground. At this moment, it seemed that there was only the sound of machine guns in the sky and the earth.
The charging cavalry saw that the situation was not good and tried to turn their horses' heads, but the cavalry charge was like a torrent of steel and could only be stopped when the forward momentum was exhausted.
If you turn around, you will only bump into your own people.
The outcome has long been determined. With 300,000 rounds of ammunition, all the machine guns currently mobilized by the Yue Kingdom taught Wu Jun a good lesson.
At the same time, the airship dropped in the sky and began to drop bombs towards the rear of the Wu army.
"Report! Grand Governor, the vanguard cavalry is blocked, our formation is in chaos, the enemy's artillery fire is fierce, the vanguard army requests artillery support!"
Sun Yu had a dark face and was comparing cannon fire? Isn't that asking for death? Just listen to the broken iron knots brought by Yulou. They are expensive and inaccurate. They cannot be used when they are wet. They are not as effective as bed crossbows.
It's somewhat useful for defending a city, but it's sheer nonsense if it's used for attacking.
Sun Yu immediately ordered: "The vanguard will turn to the rear, and the army will move eastward collectively."
In fact, Sun Yu also figured out at this time that the other party was deliberately delaying them.
Anyway, the Beiyin Fortress will not run away there, and they can maneuver at any time and withdraw towards Beiyin City. If the Vietnamese army dares to pursue them, they will fight back.
If the Vietnamese army doesn't pursue them, then the army will attack the border and eat up the Vietnamese army in Beiyin City, and it won't be too late to fight back at that time.
After making up his mind, Sun Yu led the people eastward without hesitation.
At the same time, Yue Qing also discovered the other party's strategic intentions.
But now it's too late to pursue them. The most important thing is that they have too few cavalry, and they are all light cavalry. What if they catch up and the formation is scattered, and the enemy kills them?
Or what if the opponent takes a roundabout route and attacks Beiyin Fortress?
Fortunately, Qin Yun had anticipated all this, and Yue Qing just had to follow the steps.
"Send the order, the cavalry continues to pursue!"
"The infantry turns to defense, and the airships bomb all the way, trying to slow down the opponent's marching speed."
You know, even if the craftsmen of Yue are working overtime to make airship parts, there are only three armed airships now, one is in Beiyin City, and the other is cruising near Jiushan City to bomb the Wu army's supply line.
The armed airship in front of them did not drop bombs with all its strength just now. Its purpose was to leave enough shells to block the enemy's progress.
…
In the west of Beiyin City, Bai Feiyang and Zhao Xiaoxiao were ambushing at the pass in boredom. Suddenly, the shadow of an airship appeared in the sky.
Bai Feiyang was in high spirits: "Everyone is ready, stop the enemy and don't let them enter the valley!"
The two battalions led by Bai Feiyang were the elite of the Qiongzhou First Division. All battalions were equipped with thermal weapons, including ten mountain guns and dozens of mortars. Although the machine guns had been deployed.
But with two thousand bolt-action rifles, firing alternately, and ambushing them in the valley, the scene was simply not too beautiful.
Wu Jun's cavalry was once again attacked head-on.
Not only that, the landmines buried on the ground have also become an unforgettable nightmare for them, of course, provided they have the rest of their lives.
Two thousand sniped at tens of thousands of vanguard troops. As long as the bullets were not used up, the Wu army could not move forward a step.
And Bai Feiyang happened to have enough weapons and ammunition.
In the middle of Wu's army, soldiers came on horseback to report.
"To the Commander-in-Chief, there is also artillery fire blocking the front. We can't cross it. Do you want to go around?"
Sun Yu's face darkened. There was only this east-west corridor between Beiyin City and Beiyin Fortress. There were endless mountains whether going north or south.
Wu's army was dominated by cavalry, and the army could not cross the mountains at all.
But Sun Yu knew that he had no way out. He had a vague feeling that if he didn't fight out today, his nearly 200,000 troops would be trapped in the northwest corner of Yue Kingdom.
"Move all the artillery in the entire army to the vanguard camp, organize the soldiers trapped in the battle, and charge. Even if you lose your life, you have to pile it up for this governor!"
"promise!"
At the same time, Beiyin City and the Beiyin defenders have all abandoned the outer city and relied on the inner city for defense.
But this happened to fall into Bai Zhanpeng's plan. When he attacked the city, he did not use full firepower, especially artillery.
If Beiyin Fortress gathered all the machine guns of the army, then Beiyin City gathered all the artillery on the battlefield of the Yue Kingdom. Even the old friend "Heartless Cannon" who had not seen it for a long time also made a temporary return.
According to the disciples of the Thieving Sect, there are no Yue people in Beiyin City, and basically all of them were slaughtered by the Wu State or taken to other places to work as hard labor in production.
Bai Zhanpeng doesn't have that much firepower to cover the entire Beiyin City, but for the inner city, I'm sorry!
"Lay out all the cannons in sequence, don't reserve them, target the inner city, and blast them indiscriminately!"
"The heartless cannon, aim at the city gate, blast!"
Bai Zhanpeng gave an order and thousands of cannons fired.
The entire sky above Beiyin City was filled with gunpowder smoke, as if a fire had been lit in winter.
Sun Yu and other troops who were blocked more than ten miles away from Beiyin City also saw the fire cloud rising into the sky.
In the inner city of Beiyin, due to Zhang Qi's misjudgment, sergeants gathered in the inner city and people could not avoid it.
Even Zhang Qi himself could only hide in the cellar with his wife, but after the kerosene used to defend the city was ignited, even if the ground was covered with snow, the house was still on fire!
The bombardment lasted for a full hour. Perhaps God couldn't stand it any longer. It snowed heavily, but there was no one alive in Beiyin City!
Bai Zhanpeng immediately turned the gun around without any hesitation.
"All the artillery went to Nanni Mountain to stop Sun Yu and other troops."
"Leave 10,000 people here to clean up and wipe out the remaining enemies and clean up the battlefield. The rest will go eastward to save the prince!"
"promise!"
At this moment, Beiyin City announced a high breakthrough.
But on the eastern battlefield, Qin Yun and Han Weilong's 30,000 cavalry were behind bars at this moment.
The army was attacked from the front and back, and Qin Yun and others surrounded the King of Wu. The two sides formed a subtle sandwich layer.
King Wu's nine thousand personal followers now only have one or two thousand remnants left.
Han Weilong's cavalry is not optimistic either. His army was originally designed to charge, but now it needs to fight hand-to-hand.
Casualties are increasing at a rate visible to the naked eye.
Fortunately, two airships from Jiu Shan and Bei Yin arrived one after another and provided some air support, otherwise Qin Yun and others would have been drowned long ago.
Han Weilong was so angry that he itched his teeth: "I have never fought such a useless fight in my life."
Qin Yun looked at Wang Menghu and Li Daoling with a smile. Their arrival proved that Beiyin City had been captured.
Naturally, there is no need to keep Wu Zihui anymore.
Qin Yun waved his hand: "Get Wu Zihui!"
Han Weilong: "I'll go there myself!"
After saying that, Han Weilong rushed over with thousands of cavalry. In less than a stick of incense, Wu Zihui was killed by Han Weilong and left his helmet and armor behind.
However, when he was about to capture Wu Zihui alive, suddenly a group of cavalry covered in armor and even their horses were protected by bright armor came over and killed him.
Then he stood up and was followed by a group of undead legions who were shirtless in the winter and had bloodshot eyes, fearless of death.
After Han Weilong made a tentative attack, he immediately withdrew his troops.
"Son of a bitch, these things can't be killed!"
Qin Yun stood on a hillside and looked around, but he saw a sparse army surrounding him. Even if the airship replenishes ammunition back and forth, it can't blow up all these undead soldiers!
Qin Yun smiled: "Wu Guo, are you going to have a decisive battle with us?"
"Chen Jin, Wang Menghu!"
"exist!"
"You two each bring five hundred Zhulong sergeants to the east to break into the formation. You must capture Wu Zihui."
"Han Weilong!"
"Call me Wei Qing!" Han Weilong said angrily.
Qin Yun smiled and said nothing: "Your goal is to cooperate with Bai Zhanpeng's troops and eat Wu Qi! All the sergeants gave up defense and used high maneuverability to press towards Wu Qi's troops."
"The Zhulong Camp is destroyed!"
"promise!"
Han Weilong paused: "You are crazy, how can you cut off the queen with a thousand people?"
Qin Yun smiled and said: "The State of Wu used Wu Zihui as bait to lure me out, so why can't I use myself as bait to attract enemies in the direction of Jiu Shan City?"
"Remember, the faster you destroy Wu Qi, the safer I will be!"
Han Weilong: "You...you are a madman!"
Qin Yun's eyes were distant: "I'm not crazy, how can I win this battle? In ancient times, those who fell into the enemy's battle narrowly escaped death, but now I, Qin Yun, am trapped in the enemy's battle, I want to see if God will accept me!"
"Come here, raise the royal flag and charge eastward!"
Li Daoling looked at Qin Yun, and he suddenly felt that this young man had extraordinary courage!
At the same time, to the east of Qin Yun, Yin Susu and Jiumoxing were leading the killing department and were rushing towards Qin Yun, with the masked man's carriage following closely behind.
He also had a telescope in his hand. He looked at Qin Yun's Wang Qi and smiled: "Sure enough, young people are very energetic!"
"Yang Gong, how about you personally take down Qin Yun later?"
Yang Gong nodded: "I will obey the landlord's order!"
