Power and Empire Chapter 2356: Thunder thunder in a silent place (10)

　　

　　 Surabaya River Beach, tens of thousands of cavalry crossing the river is spectacular. Against the arrow clusters shot from the opposite side, the prairie cavalry is pressing like a landslide and tsunami, crowded with people, horses stacked on horses, and the length of the crossing is enough Three or four kilometers away, I only saw an order, the horseshoe raised a white splash of water, and the grassland people began to take out their bows and arrows in the forward queue like a torrent.

　　

　　"Prepare"

　　

　　 Numerous prairie horn bows were lifted at the same time, the arrows stretched for thousands of meters with cold light, and under the horses hoof was the avalanche-like water churning scene, tens of thousands of cavalry, rolled up and rushed forward to kill Yang Zi with chills. On Rudao’s cheek, he did not expect that the grassland army would directly be the most tragic force.

　　

　　 I have ordered archers to pour clusters of arrows toward the riverbank area in large numbers, but they still can’t suppress the opponent. The clusters of arrows are staggered and dense like leeches, but the effect they can take is very limited. They are densely packed with the river surface behind. Compared with the number of cavalry groups, the prairie cavalry front army who first jumped on the river beach was full of a tragic feeling. Those who can serve as the front army are naturally elites who are not afraid of death. These prairie cavalry are crazy with arrow rain. Leaped onto the river bank, as if suffocating and bursting out. Inside their combat beliefs, only forward and forward, looking at the rows of carbine erected like forests, carrying them on their shoulders. The war horse ran into it without hesitation,

　　

　　 Papa Papa" The five-meter-long carbine pierced the prairie horse's belly severely, and the running horse was stabbed by the carbine, and immediately uttered a miserable scream. The horse hoof that rushed forward couldn't get out. , The prairie cavalry above was severely dropped by inertia, and was killed by countless spears stabbed out.

　　

　　 Only when the two of them were able to hold the carbine of Zhongbia. The soldier who was also hit by the huge counter-shock force leaned back and rolled, but at any rate he was able to stand up again, which made the morale of the soldiers of Yang Zijun soar. I didn't expect this thing to be really miraculous! Although it is still inevitable that there will be damage, compared to the previous soldiers in the first row, almost all of them are finished. It’s a miracle that it’s still alive with two-thirds of the saved people,

　　

　　" Go up! "I found that the prairie cavalry were not so terrible, and Yang Zijun's courage came up immediately,

　　

　　 The soldier holding the carbine in his hand shouted, the front carbine team. With an iron spear in his hand, he stabs madly without hesitation, and directly pushes forward the corpses of people and horses in the grassland that had been killed in front.

　　

　　 The carbine is fully extended to a length of five meters, and the front spear head alone is one and a half feet in length. Behind the sharp spear head is a circle of circular Tito, ensuring that the spear point can penetrate the target in front of the grassland forcefully. The cavalry's weapons can't reach the length of five meters. At first he became a little confused. The person who proposed to use this lengthened iron gun to deal with the steppe cavalry was Long Yang, the first general in Central Bahia. This general in Central Bahia, who had fought on the western continent for decades, was anxious for one. A Zhongbian court, which can target cavalry weapons, proposed a carbine similar to the Dragon Spear of the Western Continent. The Zhongbian court thinks that this carbine is feasible,

　　

　　The Central and Bianbian Army does not lack manpower. It is because of the lack of war horses. Since war horses cannot be used for field battles, the strength of the infantry should be brought into full play. According to the carbine, the carbine does not require too much technical forging capabilities, nor does it require long-term training for soldiers. On the contrary, it is a cheap type of arms with the lowest cost and a good effect in a short period of time. Some generals even think that , The Battle of Imperial Capital. If there were 100,000 carbines, the steppe people would not be able to enter the Imperial Plains. Long Yang sat and watched the Sino-Bahia war, although he had weapons that could turn the tide of the war, he kept it private. It’s simply a concealment of evil,

　　

　　 The first batch of forged 2,500 such carbines were given to Yang Zi, who was on the front line.

　　

In the battle of 　　 Emperor Jing, flattering Zhangwu army was defeated across the board, lost the city and abandoned the ground, how tragic, only Yang Zi’s army is well preserved in this turbulent current, this combat power is quite dazzling, Yang Because of this battle, Zi’s prestige has risen rapidly in Central and Biyah. He is known as the only general among the 400,000 flattery Zhangwu Army who can fight a hard fight with the grassland army. The emperor made an exception and raised his ranks three times and was transferred from an ordinary general to one of the most important ministers. One of the imperial capital guards, you must know that in the peaceful era, the imperial palace guards were at least the top three positions in the military pavilion. Although it is not as good as before, its status is becoming more and more important. When the imperial capital is destroyed, it is Jiang Chennan, so the court is naturally what it is. Weapons and equipment are not hesitating to stuff Yang Zi's side, hoping that Yang Zi general will block the prairie people,

　　

　　 If it is not for the horseshoe facing the grassland army to go south, the recruitment of recruits will be a burden. The court will even send more than 100,000 recruits from the south to the Imperial Capital.

　　

　　 Although the south is picturesque, it is not the foundation of the empire after all. The Imperial Plain is the most important area of ​​the empire. The population here is one-half of the empire. In this regard, the young emperor of Central and Biyah is not confused. Therefore, this time the grassland army entered the Imperial Plains, and the military cabinet gave an order to Yang Zi to defend Surabaya. Yang Zijun did not fight alone. The Central and Bianbian Army cabinet had ordered the returning 60,000 Luzhou Army to be transferred to support. Ten The flattering army that was being repaired by Wan also rushed out of Hanglin and rushed frantically towards Surabaya on the Imperial Plains. Even the Western army in Yanzhou received an order to immediately assist the Imperial Plains from Yanzhou.

　　

　　 These reinforcements, Yang Zi has learned from the order sent by the Military Pavilion that the Military Pavilion requires him to defend Surabaya, waiting for reinforcements. According to the view from the court, the three-way army rushes to the Imperial Plains, as long as Yang Zijun can hold it. The Prairie Army may not have the possibility of encircling the Prairie Army in the Imperial Plains. If it can be achieved, this will be the biggest victory for China and Biya since the imperial defeat.

　　

　　 So Yang Zi decided to gamble. Using his 30,000 troops as bait, he dragged the grassland army to this Surabaya river beach, and laid down his own eternal reputation

　　

　　 Standing under the banner of the main battle line in the army, Yang Zi looked coldly at the battle that broke out on the river bank. The effect of the carbine was good. The prairie people were really at a loss. They just landed ashore and were pushed into the river. I haven’t been relieved for a long time, but the grassland army’s bow shooting caused a lot of casualties on my side. In one round, there was a round of arrow clusters smashing down like a torrential rain. The queue of the carbine team was almost in pieces. Fall down

　　

　　 These spearmen only wore ordinary armor, and the prairie people’s ox-horn bows fired heavy arrows at a distance of sixty steps, but they were not covered by two layers of armor. .

　　

　　The equipment of these prairie people is already quite sophisticated. The step-shooting array was like being swept down by a violent wind, and the grassland step-shooting shooters on the other side of the river bank formed an array of six or seven layers, in some places. The last row was shot through. From the gap, you can see that there are some temporarily constructed catapults being assembled

　　

　　"A bunch of bastards!"

　　

　　 Yang Zi's pupils shrank suddenly, his face became ugly, his fingers squeezed violently, how could a weapon like a catapult appear here?

　　

　　Prairie people have never used siege equipment in field battles. Undoubtedly, the people who operated these slings were not the people from the steppes, but from the people of Central and Biyah. Hearing that some of the small cities in front surrendered without resistance, not only a large number of fine ordnance fell into the hands of the people. There are even slings, but they are not used in the field. They are the style of the Chinese and Bianbian army, not the steppe people! So, did the Chinese and Bahia troops surrendered the steppe people? How to do? It is impossible to let the Garbage Team to withdraw. It has been completely entangled together and withdrawn. It’s a crash, and it will even affect the people behind.

　　

　　, it seems that I can only sacrifice the Garbage Team!

　　

　　 can be in the defeat of the Imperial Capital. He ordered the heavy-armored swordsman to kill the thousands of defeated Yang Zi. He didn’t pay much attention to the lives of soldiers. How could a general who had his eyes on the overall situation worry about the lives of a few soldiers? If so, what else would he fight? battle. Fighting is killing! Kill the enemy, kill your own people. In the end, as long as you can win! Surabaya was originally the first blocking line, and there were three more behind it. If it runs out here, how can you fight back? There are slings on the opposite side, and the Surabaya river beach can no longer be defended. Fortunately, most of the grassland army is still in the river. After crossing the river, it will be prepared and cannot be pursued quickly. , Or it’s really troublesome

　　

　　 Yang Zi frowned. There was Surabaya on the beach of Surabaya, but there was no acceptable terrain. It was originally not the main battlefield he set, but it was because of the order of the military cabinet that he avoided trying. Since the steppe army used slings, it is understandable to evacuate. He raised his hand to the messenger cavalry behind him and said grimly

　　

　　"Order the Chinese army to start an orderly retreat and abandon the Surabaya Beach! The whole army withdraw to Wulingpo, the second line of defense"

　　

　　The Chinese army that received the order began to retreat slowly, but the horrified gunmen who had already red eyes on the front did not notice this.

　　

　　 Soon, the huge sling began to scream and smash, desperately resisting the cavalry's carbine, bear the brunt, all kinds of water chestnut slings crossed an arc, slammed down from the top of the head, and saw his companion instantly The brains split, and the two soldiers holding the carbine disappeared at once, except that the falling rocks were covered with minced meat.

　　

　　 The sudden blow was like a piece of the carbine array was dug out, and the carbine array was almost completely destroyed at this moment,

　　

　　"Stick!"

　　

　　 Even though the soldier’s gate is still subconsciously standing in the array and not daring to retreat, he has no idea what to do. Once the length of the carbine is opened, it is destined to be unable to turn. The side is a dead spot. I saw the vacancy, the grassland. The cavalry immediately swarmed in like the tide, and the machete desperately slashed left and right, blood sprayed from the headless chest cavity into the sky, the remaining soldiers of Central and Bahia just stared blankly at the corpses stacked on top of each other. , And the wounded who are struggling and wailing desperately, for a while they have no idea what to do! Originally thought that he could still have a certain upper hand, after covering the formation, Zhongbia refused to turn his carbine, and he was immediately broken open like a rotten weapon!

　　

　　"Where are our people?" The **** recruits were lying in a pile of corpses, looking at the direction of their departure from the rear, staring at them, and 3,700 gunmen were killed in this battle.

　　

　　" My lord, the Central and Biyarian army has withdrawn! "A prairie cavalry galloped up to Yelvhongtai’s horse,

　　

　　 "Retreated?" Yeluguda was stunned when he heard it, and immediately reacted, "Immediately order all troops crossing the river to pursue them with all their strength!"

　　

　　 "Quick, line up to chase"

　　

　　 On the river beach, the flags swayed around and the horns were sounded. The prairie cavalry were desperately adjusting their own array. The fierce battle just now killed all the front army of the Chinese and Biyarians. The prairie army did not pay the price. Xiao, more than 3,000 people died in battle on the river beach, and more than 1,000 were drowned by the rapids of the river. The most important thing is that the people and horses consumed a lot of energy to forcibly cross the river with the rapids. At this time, it is not easy to issue a chase order,

　　

　　 A famous prairie centurion roared loudly, waved the weapon in his hand, encouraged the morale of his subordinates, and drove the subordinates. He slammed straight into the **** beach in front of the dead, and stood in place amidst the sound of armor colliding, all kinds of weapons protruding forward like a forest. Like the rows of fangs stretched out by a fierce beast, it drove forward quickly

　　

　　 "My lord, I have already passed Surabaya. The situation is unknown. If you pursue it without authorization, it may happen!" There are also a few savvy people in the grassland army. It feels that the withdrawal of the Chinese and Bianya army is a little weird, if not Withdrawal, this battle is really hard to say. This is the cruelest battle they have encountered since entering the Imperial Plains. Although it was not long, it was tragic. This also made them put away a little bit of despise the Chinese and Biyaese people. If the Chinese and Biyaese are so tenacious. . That’s really troublesome,

　　

　　 "Forget it, stop chasing and clean the battlefield!"

　　

　　 Yelv Guda raised his hand, and felt that the front was not easy. He had long known from the local officials in the occupied area that the opposing Imperial defense force was Yang Zi, a general of China and Biya. On ability. It is definitely first-class in China and Bahia, and what it is best at is defense. At the time, China and Bahia suffered a terrible defeat. Being able to withstand the four waves of full-strength attacks by the Three Princes with 8,000 infantrymen without crashing, causing the Three Princes to almost miss the opportunity to enter the Imperial Capital. How could such a person be a coward who collapsed at the touch of a touch, with a needle hidden in Mianli? This is The name of the prairie people for this general of China and Biya, Surabaya Beach is not a good place for a decisive battle. Yeluguda also looked at the iron hoof of tens of thousands of cavalry. How could it be blocked by a 30-meter river?

　　

　　The Prairie Army cleared the battlefield, and the dead body was separated. The corpses of the prairie people were thrown into hundreds of fire pits lined up along the river, burned to ashes, put into jars and sent back to the back. The bodies of the people from Central and Bahia were collectively thrown into the river, blood stained the river course, Yelu Guda will use the corpses of these Chinese soldiers to stun the entire Imperial Plains. The Surabaya River runs across the Imperial Plains from north to south.

　　

　　 "My lord, we found something strange"

　　

　　 A tribal leader found Yelv Guda with a weird look. According to the custom of the prairie people, half of the spoils belonged to the tribe, and the other half had to be handed in. The spoils this time are still very good, at least that one thousand There are many all-iron carbines, which make the tribe leaders jealous. Each carbine is five meters long and weighs more than 30 kilograms. They are all fine iron. After melting, there are two armors and four or five scimitars. , If it melts into a heavy arrow, enough to fill three arrow baskets, how can you keep the grassland heads from being jealous? After turning in 700, the others are divided up by all races. Just when everyone is searching around, this The headman found the fifteen Thors on the flanks of the army formation in the woods. Yes, the fifteen Thors were intact, and the leaves covered on them were not removed. There were piles of Thor cannonballs piled up like finished products.

　　

　　 Yang Zi didn’t take these Thunder Gods seriously. When he ordered the evacuation, they took care of these things. The Thunder God was too heavy. In that case, who would care about these heavy iron camels? According to the saying, this kind of stupid thing should not be made. The heads of the grassland do not know Thor, but they just think that it is definitely not good intentions for the Chinese people to put these iron pipes here.

　　

　　 such a heavy iron pipe, it can forge five armors after melting, the head man happily circled a Thor, touched the cold barrel, and couldn’t figure out exactly what it was done. What's the use~IndoMTL.com~ According to the rules, half of it must be turned in. This thing is not easy to divide. Since it is not easy to divide, can I change something that is useful to him? This is what the chief thinks. In the army going south, Originally, there was a widespread situation of looted materials, so it appeared that you could use something of equal value to find the Yelvjun. The leader thought that this thing could be exchanged for three or four hundred cattle and sheep. He knows that what he is considering now is bought by the Central and Biya Court for 500,000 taels of silver, and he is estimated to be crazy on the spot

　　

　　 I found Yeluguda and brought up the conditions in his heart. Yeluguda didn’t think there was anything, so he agreed to send soldiers to move all the dozen iron objects to his camp, and made a record. He sent someone to the base camp where Yeluhongtai was. He did not expect that Yeluhongtai rushed over in a violent storm in the afternoon, followed by the Yelu Qiyeguang, and immediately asked where those things were, Yeluguda. Shocked, he quickly took the two of them to the place where these iron objects were placed,

　　

　　 "That's it, it's too heavy to carry, or send a craftsman to melt it directly!" Yelv Guda said with a relaxed face, turned his head, but saw his sister, Yelv Qiyueguang was stunned. Looking at the dozens of irons, I breathe in my mouth,

　　

　　His father, who has been in charge of the royal court for 30 years, looked at these iron objects with green eyes, and suddenly laughed, "God, this is God's will. With these, what is the Emperor!"
