Chapter 1329 A Gu Da's Death - A Sea of ??Blood
The Jin soldiers began to charge!
Accompanied by a tight sound of drums, the infantry of the Jin soldiers poured down first! Alixi soldiers wearing thick leather helmets rushed up like a landslide, forming waves of dense scattered soldiers, actually not scattered lines, but attack waves formed after the scattered infantry formation! Behind each wave of Alixi, there were the Jurchens who were supervising the battle, composed of Puliyan, Shicheng, squad leader and regular soldiers, wearing two or three layers of thick armor, holding long spears, swords, shields, or maces, and rushing forward.
In fact, there is no need to supervise the battle, and the fighting spirit of Alixi and others is also very high!
Not only because Aguda gave them a way out, but also because the Bohai people and the Goryeo people among them had deep hatred with Dongliao and Zhou.
The Great Yuan Kingdom of the Bohai people and the Koryo people were both destroyed by the Zhou Kingdom!
The Zhou Kingdom not only destroys the people's country, but also destroys the people!
Both in the Goryeo Kingdom and along the Liao River, the national policy of land redistribution was firmly implemented.
This means that many people from Bohai and Goryeo lost their land that they had actually owned for generations, and became tenants from landlords or self-cultivated farmers.
Especially the Bohai people who defected to the Jin Kingdom and became Alixi, almost all had the experience of losing territory and destroying their families.
Now that we meet the Dongliao, a vassal of the Great Zhou Republic, what else can we be polite? The Khitans were originally enemies of the Bohai people, but now they have added new and old hatreds.
The infantry and cavalry of the Jin soldiers seemed to have covered the battlefield in front of the "Empress Xiao's Formation", and ants were coming!
This is the first time Wu Yixin is commanding a battle of this scale, and it is a tough battle that cannot be more tough!
Wu Erlang, who was riding on the camel's back, looked at all the things in front of him in a daze, "Shi Niang, I plan to drown my master with a sea of people..."
Wu Yixin suddenly reacted and immediately drove the camels behind the camel artillery that had already been placed in the inner side of the hollow square formation close to the Jin soldiers, and loudly ordered, "Don't open fire! Don't open fire! Only when you hear the whistle can you open fire..."
He rode a camel from one end to the other and ordered loudly. Camel artillery cavalry is the essence of Dongliao. At this time, he could calm down and calmly adjust the firing angle of the cannon mounted on the camel's back, and turn the muzzle downward for a certain degree, and then aim it in front.
At this time, Xiao Sesse also climbed the watchtower with Yelu Aoluwo and Xiao Da'aoye, and also saw the enemy who was divided into troops and rushing towards the front like a tide. Xiao Sesse could still calm down, but Yelu Aoluwo and Xiao Da'aoye looked at each other.
Especially Yelu Aoluo's mouth trembled, "Too many, too many... There are too many Jurchens, how can you beat them?"
Xiao Sesse looked at Xiao Da'aoye again. The girl's face turned pale, her lips were tightly pursed, but she just stood still. She looked even calmer than Yelu Aoluwo!
Xiao Sesse smiled softly, "Don't be afraid. Those who can't lose this battle can't be defeated. They can't break the Tuocheng. It's even more delusional to rely on the sea of people to break through the second brother of Wu's formation. A Gu shouldn't have fought this battle!
However, if he doesn't fight for 40,000 people against his tens of thousands of people, who will follow him on the grassland? Moreover, his tens of thousands of troops are consumed every day. If he fights for one more day, he will spend one more bit of the Jin Kingdom's vitality!
In addition, he was also worried that Linhuang Prefecture, once the Linhuang Prefecture City was destroyed, the general trend of the Jin Kingdom on the Korqin Grassland would be gone. The reputation of our Great Liao will be restored! At that time, Menggu, Wugu, enemy Lie, and Tatars will obey the orders of our Great Liao. The Jin Kingdom in Aguda will only have a way out to move westward. But there is still a Western Liao waiting for him to..."
Aguda really had to fight. Xiao Sesse gave him the most likely chance to win. In this case, it was impossible for Aguda to fight with the method of tangled battles without fighting.
It would be better to give up the Korqin Grassland than to do that...
...
Boom boom boom boom...
The dense queue of Jin soldiers was suddenly bombarded by cannons deployed on both wings of the front of Camel City! The crowd of Jin soldiers covered the entire battlefield with a gray blanket. The 4-pound iron ball fell down and suddenly smashed several Ali Xi, and then jumped up and rolled over from the crowd. Whatever they hit was immediately broken and the flesh was rolling, and they were lying miserably on the ground or were knocked away by artillery shells.
The Alixi and others were scared and their pace of progress was paused, but the Jurchen generals who were supervising the battle behind them slapped the back of the knife and the gun bars like a ferocious way, forcing the deputy Alixi and continued to move forward!
The artillery fire was undoubtedly fierce, but the Jin soldiers showed no sign of stagnation. In a blink of an eye, they had approached the hollow square formation commanded by Wu Yixin. The Dongliao spearmen who formed the square formation remained motionless and just put the spears flat.
The 1,000 camel artillery cavalry behind them have also arranged two quite dense shooting formations. They will split into two batches and fire alternately. The cannons have been loaded with iron bullets, the leads have been inserted, the fuse is pinched in their hands, and the muzzle aims at the approaching Jin soldiers Alixi who is rushing in front. Alixi, who is rushing in front, probably knows that he will be bombarded, and they raise their shields one after another...
Wu Yixin finally called out the call for "Camel cannon shooting!"
The lingering sound of the command was still echoing, and the whistle of the camel artillery cavalry commanders sounded. Rows of large and small fires flashed on the camel artillery cavalry front line!
Some of the shields in Alixi's hands immediately shattered, and the huge impact force knocked Alixi, who was holding the shield, and flew backwards, colliding with the Jin soldiers behind him.
Then there is the horrifying scene of flesh and blood flying!
The camel cannon is a weapon between a cannon and a musket. It is easy to imagine how terrible the power of the attack on a person is. An iron bullet enters the body, which is a terrible blood hole, the size of a fist! The flesh, tendons, bones, and internal organs inside are all mixed and rotten. There must be a larger hole behind this person, and a large piece of flesh, flesh, skin and bones are gone!
To this extent, not to mention medieval medical treatment, even going to the 21st century would be beyond help. Most of them were just awesome on the spot!
There were also some unlucky people who hit the limbs and were all broken on the spot! The arms and thighs were "cut off" at once, leaving only a bloody and bloody wound, and you could see the wounds of the bones.
This really hurts!
The screams of ghosts and wolves howling suddenly rang on the battlefield.
However, when it was so serious, I couldn't scream a few times, and soon I would die...
What is really miserable is that the iron shells fired by the camel cannon of the Jin soldiers hit by the second-hand iron bullets are not comparable to those of the lead shells fired by the smoothbore guns. Often after penetrating one person, they still have the strength to continue flying and breaking through a armored Jin soldier again!
The volley of 500 camel cannons immediately turned the front of the square into a hell-like existence!
There were corpses lodging in various postures everywhere, and there were dying and wailing Jin soldiers everywhere, with blood flowing across the river, dyeing a large area of grassland red.
Ali Xi, who was rushing to the front, and the genuine Jin soldiers who were supervising the battle suffered heavy casualties and almost lost more than 300 people!
The attacking people is also stagnant.
However, compared with as many as 30,000 attack troops, this loss is nothing, it is just one percent!
Moreover, because the attack formation was too dense, even if the Jin soldiers Ali Xi, who was hit by artillery in the front row, would be forced to fight back by the layers of Jin soldiers pressed up from behind.
Because Wanyan Zongwang, who was commanding this offensive, had already issued an order that he would not allow him to retreat without orders, and the rear team must kill the soldiers who retreated without authorization!
"Blow drums, spearmen, assault!"
Wu Yixin also knew that the Jin soldiers were not so easy to repel, so he immediately ordered a slinger team to form a hollow square formation, and about 1,000 slingers took the opportunity to launch an assault.
This is to expand the results of camel cannon shooting, and to fight for the replacement and loading time for the two rows of camel cannons.
Amid the sound of a snare drum, 1,000 spearmen were divided into two rows, shouting slogans and launching a round of assaults.
A thousand spears advanced like a wall and hit the Jin soldiers who were disrupted by camel cannons...
Aguda probably couldn't bear to see his warrior being killed by the enemy, so he simply put down the telescope and whispered, "I didn't expect the camel cannon and spearmen to join together so powerfully!"
Wanyan Zongbi shook his head slightly, "It was they who cooperated well... It was the soldiers trained by the officers of Zhou State who helped Empress Xiao! With the cooperation of the soldiers, the officers of Zhou State were much better than our true generals. However, they still had too few camel cannons. If there were 4,000 balls, they would be defeated today!
Now they can only set up the Empress Dowager's formation on one side of the Tuocheng, and at most, there are Tianjin crossbows and bows and arrows on the other three sides."
Just as the Jin soldiers attacking Wu Yixin's hollow square formation head-on was in a tough battle, the 40,000 cavalry detoured from both wings were basically in place and spread out on both sides of the narrow sides of the Tuocheng.
Of course, the Dongliao side was already on the verge of battle. Wanyan Zongbi had no guesses. Xiao Sesse had only 1,000 camel artillery cavalry in his hand, divided into the ten thousand households on the left and right. Now they were all handed over to Wu Yixin to command.
Therefore, on both sides of Tuocheng, the soldiers of Dongliao could only use the 8-year-old spear, the Tianjin crossbow and the stubborn sheep horn bow to meet the enemy.
In addition, a row of horses were placed outside the Camel City, and caltrops were sprinkled outside the horses.
If the repelling horses and caltrops were not removed, the Jurchen cavalry would not be able to launch an attack.
Therefore, the first attack on the flank of Camel City was also initiated by Ali Xi and the Jin Knights who were dismounting.
