"Not good." Yao Guangxiao, who was in the rear and was always looking at the situation on the battlefield, had a rare change of expression. He had also expected that even if Timur really discovered Ming's plan, he would never abandon the capital of Samarkand, and even if he broke through, it would only be an attempt.
Timur's appearance in person may just be another attempt to launch a similar strategy of seducing the east and attacking the west.
However, now, he is basically certain: these crazy Timur Empire armies have no special strategy at all. Timur's strategy is probably only one: attack with all his strength.
Directly use the number of people to defeat the Ming army!
"Quickly, go ask your two highnesses for support!" Yao Guangxiao hurriedly called for the soldiers to summon him, but he was sweating like blood: he was worried that Timur would repeat the strategy of attacking from the east and attack the west, so even though he got a warning from this section of the defense line , the Ming army did not dispatch too many troops to rush for reinforcements.
No one expected that Tamerlane would have such courage, and before reaching the end of the road, he could make up his mind to block everything and carry out a decisive blow!
Even Yao Guangxiao admired Timur very much at this time: he was able to make such a decision before he reached a desperate situation. It cannot be said that this person is not an outstanding person.
Even the strategy of attacking with the entire army to break out, now that I think about it, isn’t it a good idea? Taking advantage of the enemy's unpreparedness and using all his strength to strike with thunder... is undoubtedly the best way to break the situation now!
"Grenade, throw the grenade!"
Fei Ju, who was on the front line, was already sweating profusely. With his voice hoarse from shouting, he personally snatched the grenade from a frightened Ming soldier, pulled off the ring and threw it away. The grenade was thrown into the Timur Emperor's formation, and a terrible explosion and screams sounded at the same time. The rising smoke should have become a hell with no survivors.
However, among the smoke and fire, there were actually a steady stream of Timurid Empire soldiers, their eyes red, rushing towards the trench from the smoke remaining from the grenades!
"Crazy...all crazy..." Fei Ju felt a chill in his heart. There were only a thousand people in this section of the defense line, but the enemy troops pouring out of the city gate seemed endless. Those Central Asians with red eyes who sang war songs were so fearless and fearless that even he, a veteran on the battlefield, had his hair standing on end. Seeing that the fishing net array in front of the trench had turned into a mountain of corpses that could not stop the enemy, and the soldiers of Emperor Timur from behind kept climbing over the mountain of corpses. They held up the corpses of their companions to block the musket projectiles, howling. Rushing towards the Ming army.
Fei Ju immediately issued an order: "Retreat, line up behind the trench, and wait for reinforcements!"
The number of enemy troops was too great. As long as they were rushed in front of them, the loose and long trenches would not be enough to fill the teeth of these people. This is an absolute advantage in numbers. It is obvious that trenches and firearms can no longer stop the enemy. It is better to use the military formations he is familiar with and delay a little longer with a dense formation...
After receiving the military order, the Ming army quickly retreated, abandoned the trench and formed an airtight shield formation behind the trench. As Fei Ju expected, the huge number of Emperor Timur's troops quickly flooded the trenches that the Ming army had worked hard to dig over the past few days, like a flood filling a small canal. In the face of absolute numerical superiority, these recently dug thin trenches seemed useless.
If the Ming army was still in the trench, they would probably be drowned by the crowd.
Timur's army soon arrived in front of the Ming army's formation.
It was also Fei Ju's first time to fight such a strange battle: it was obviously a siege, but the defenders attacked with all their troops, and their siege team had to form such a team. A turtle-like formation, passively being beaten...
But that's all at this time. There is only one Ming army here, but it has to face the overwhelming force of all Timur's troops. All they can do now is to stand firm and wait for help... As long as they can hold on until the two highnesses come to rescue with their armies, the advantage will still be with Ming Dynasty.
After all, in order to command the army to leave the city, the thief chief abandoned the advantage of the city wall... At this time, it is far better to kill the thief chief than to attack the city!
Under the black banner, Timur was also worried. He kept urging the generals to press forward, intending to break through the Ming army as quickly as possible... He had to break through the Ming army as quickly as possible before the other Ming armies could react.
These obstacles led the army to leave this terrible meat grinding ground.
As for the losses... Timur was not worried. What the empire needs most now is to regain its former pride of invincibility. As long as it breaks through the Ming army, it can sign more brave young men from other provinces of the empire, and then baptize them into a new batch of powerful men with glory and victory. warrior.
Although they would lose a lot by leaving behind their wealth and city, Timur believed that he could eventually take everything back. .bμν.
As long as we can break through this line of defense at any cost before the support of the Ming army arrives...
"You can do it, Timur." This was a shocking gamble, but Timur still had the confidence to win. "The difference in the number of people between this Ming army and our own side is really too big. If they wait a little longer, they will definitely be defeated by the warriors."
"And it will take at least half a day for the other Ming troops to come to support..."
Of course, he did not recklessly issue the order for the entire army to break out, but had already gone through many investigations and weighed it several times. He had already anticipated all the Ming army's support routes, so he knew very well that his army would be able to completely defeat this tenacious Ming army before other Ming armies came to support him.
Victory will surely belong to him, Timur...bμν.
"True Ancestor, what is that?" A general's horrified cry suddenly sounded in his ears.
Timur frowned and was about to scold the distracted general, but out of the corner of his eye, he couldn't help but look in the direction the general was pointing. At this sight, even this well-informed conqueror was stunned for a moment: I saw several huge balls floating staggeringly in the blue sky in the east.
"There seems to be someone on top of that thing..." A general saw a hazy human figure in the hanging basket under the big ball, and couldn't help but guess: "Could these be the envoys of the True Ancestor? Are they going to take us devout believers there?" Do you want to meet the true ancestor?"
Timur did not speak. He clearly felt that the shock and shock caused by those big balls took away a lot of the originally strong war atmosphere on the battlefield. This made him very unhappy. The distracted Imperial soldiers would undoubtedly lose part of their energy. Moreover, those big balls in the sky that he had never seen before also gave him a very dangerous feeling.
"Ah, something was thrown down..." someone exclaimed. Some soldiers even thought that what was thrown down was a reward from the true ancestor, so they actually dropped it on the Ming army in front of them, eager to catch it. Those things that fall from the sky.
"Boom, boom, boom!" The sudden burst of fire exploded in front of Timur's eyes. The few generals who wanted to catch the "reward" were undoubtedly engulfed in the flames.
"It's the Ming army!" Timur suddenly felt like he was dead. He had become familiar with this movement in the past few days: the fire caused by the explosion and the earth-shattering momentum. What could it be if it wasn't Ming's grenade?
Those balls in the sky are actually the Ming army?
Timur's face instantly turned livid: he had predicted all the Ming army's support routes, but he could not have predicted them anyway.
The Ming army would actually fly over from the sky to support him!
