The ancestor of the apocalypse is so cool after being reborn!

Chapter 232 Rout
"Chi Guerzilla, who escaped earlier, said how powerful the imperial soldiers and horses are. I think there is a lot of water in his words."

"Shut up!" An old thief scolded the two new recruits who were talking loudly.

"You have never encountered imperial soldiers and horses. How do you know that Chi Gueran's words are worthwhile? Just because of the self-righteousness of the two of you?"

This old thief has fought countless battles with the soldiers and horses of the court, and he knows the combat strength of the soldiers and horses of the court before and now.

Leaving aside the soldiers and horses of the imperial court in the past, but now the soldiers and horses of the imperial court can be said to be the best of the best, whether it is weapons or soldiers!
The two recruits were scolded for a while, and they didn't dare to say anything more, and they also murmured in their hearts, could it be that the imperial soldiers are really invincible?
Otherwise, the rebel team wouldn't have been withdrawing to the north and engulfed all the young and middle-aged people in their village.

If the imperial soldiers and horses are really powerful, then they have to think about how to survive in the upcoming siege.

Drums sounded outside the city, and the court soldiers and horses advanced in an orderly manner, and stopped outside the effective range of the city.

The recruit Danzi clenched the handle of the knife in his hand, nervously staring at the formation outside the city.

This time he knew to lower his voice, "Wang Er, why did the imperial troops stop?"

Wang Er also said in a low voice: "I don't know. I just heard what the old soldier said. I think these two rounds of steel cannons seem to be not easy. If they attack the city later, remember to follow me closely. We have to dodge as much as possible. Don't risk your life in vain."

In the end, they surrendered if they could. Anyway, they just brought them in, and they naturally have no good impression of these rebels.

The generals of the rebel army will also be curious about how the imperial soldiers and horses will use these two rounds of artillery.

Zhenghe asked Ying Weizhong who was standing beside him, "What's so special about those cannons?"

Otherwise, it would be impossible for the court to think of using two rounds of artillery to attack the city, there must be something special about it.

Ying Weizhong shook his head: "My subordinates have never heard of the power of their cannons. Could it be a newly developed weapon? I heard that Dayu's queen raised a group of skilled craftsmen."

Hearing this, Zhenghe frowned even tighter, it's really hard to fight against the imperial court.

The former King Qian was rumored to be a dandy in the capital city, who only knew how to eat, drink and play. How could he inherit the throne as if he had changed himself, pulling the precarious dynasty back from the brink of life and death.

Now they are forcing their rebel army to retreat steadily, and if they continue to force them, they can only go to Jizhou to break through.

While the two were talking, the imperial troops and horses outside the city moved again.

To be precise, the artillery in front moved.

Li Chengmu, standing in front of the Chinese army, watched the artillery fill the shells, and finally confirmed to Xia Jing: "Mother, these shells really have the magical effect you said?"

Xia Jing looked at the city wall of Fengxian County in the distance, and said confidently: "This is the first version of the biochemical drug developed by your mother and I personally. If you want to know how it works, please be patient and wait until later."

"Grandmother, if two rounds of steel cannons can capture a city, then in the next battle, we will basically be invincible with any weapon like yours. It is only a matter of time before the court recovers the lost ground."

Yuan Rongcheng, who came to meet up with Long Yutian this time, spoke at this moment, looking forward to the next battle in his heart.

"Bang bang!"

The sound of two cannons immediately attracted the attention of everyone outside the city.

The steel cannon was small and inconspicuous, but the shells it fired went directly over the city wall, flew into the city, and exploded behind the rebels defending the city.

The rebels who were standing under the city to support the city suffered disaster. The shells exploded among them, and a group of people were injured. The most terrible thing was that they were smoked by the explosion smoke, and everyone's eyes hurt.

"Ah! My eyes!"

"It hurts! I can't see in my eyes!"

Even the wounded rebel was covered in blood, but he couldn't care less about the pain in his body because of the pain in his eyes.

The eyes of the rebels who were smothered by the thick smoke were so painful that they couldn't open their eyes, let alone see.

And those who were farther away from the explosion point of the shell, some suffered less damage from the smoke, their eyes hurt and their faces were covered with tears.

The two shells exploded outside the area of ​​impact. The rebels turned pale with fear when they saw such a hellish scene.

Zhenghe yelled at the frightened rebels: "Counterattack, counterattack! Why are you in a daze! Is it when you are in a daze on the battlefield? Ah! Quickly load Laozi with shells and shoot at the enemy!"

When the rebels came back to their senses, their expressions became serious. They quickly checked the barrels of the guns, then reloaded and ignited.

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

As the artillery shells with the hopes of the rebels were fired, they all fell more than ten feet away from the imperial soldiers and horses, which shows that the artillery ranges of the two armies are very different.

The hopeful eyes of the rebels all lost their spirits.

The steel cannons on the imperial court's side were loaded with shells and fired.

"Bang bang!"

The sounds of the two are different. The bombardment sound is not as loud as the rebels', but the range and damage level are beyond the reach of the old-fashioned cannons of the rebels.

"Ah! My eyes!"

"It hurts! I can't see in my eyes!"

The screams are repeated again, but the eyes of any rebels who are stained with smoke will be injured. It depends on the degree of your contamination to determine the size of your damage.

Standing in the tower, Zhenghe saw this scene, and jumped his feet angrily, "The soldiers and horses of the imperial court claim to be orthodox, but they don't respect martial arts ethics at all. Is this a war? Such methods are completely base and despicable!"

"If you want to fight a war, fight it openly. What kind of gentleman do you look like with these shady tricks? I think their prince is also ostentatious!"

Zheng He was swearing, and the rebels at the top of the city were scared to run away when they saw the artillery fire outside the city. This terrible weapon bombarded them, and they wanted to go underground to hide.

Ying Weizhong looked at the team that was about to collapse, and his eyes were red with anxiety. He suggested to Zhenghe: "General, judging from the current situation, we must evacuate!"

"fart!"

Zhenghe was furious, "Am I the defeated general who fled without a fight? You are not well-meaning, and you want to destroy my majesty. Can you take my place?"

Ying Weizhong unceremoniously rolled his eyes at him, and pointed to the court soldiers and horses outside the city, "How do we fight this battle now? How do you say it is fought? Their artillery range is farther than ours, and our artillery can't fight at all." To them, but they can easily abuse us!
If we delay any longer, the losses of our soldiers and horses will gradually increase. Instead of fighting hard here, it is better to rush into Jizhou by surprise according to our previous plan, and the first thing to do is to save this team first! "

If the green hills remain, are you afraid that there will be no firewood?

With this style of play, the imperial soldiers and horses did not suffer any damage, but they suffered heavy losses as foreseeable.

That being the case, why not escape first!

Ying Weizhong's persuasion and the screams of the soldiers outside were like a curse, which made my head hurt.

The scene outside made Zhenghe's heart sink into the valley, and his face became more and more ugly.

The facts are in front of him, the court soldiers and horses are not something he can defeat at present, at least if he does not order a retreat today, I believe that after two rounds of artillery shells come down, the rebels defending the city will basically escape cleanly, and he will be naked by then Commander.

If he started to organize the retreat to the north gate of the city now, he might be able to take away most of the soldiers.

Ying Weizhong looked at another group of brothers who fell down, and his eyes were red with anxiety: "General, make a decision quickly, brothers will not be able to hold on any longer!"

Looking at the posture of the imperial court now, if they don't retreat or surrender, they are afraid that they want to annihilate their team in one fell swoop.

The strength and equipment of the imperial soldiers and horses are much better than those of their own side. With such strength hanging in the balance, it is the right answer to withdraw as soon as possible.

After more than a dozen rounds of artillery shells were fired, the rebels guarding the top of the city basically lost their combat effectiveness, and another round of drums sounded intensively outside the city. You don't need to look outside to know that this is a signal for the court soldiers to charge.

"General, hurry up and make a decision! I'm afraid it will be too late!"

Zhenghe gritted his teeth, his fighting power has been lost, so what if he doesn't withdraw!

"withdraw!"

After hearing this, Ying Weizhong relaxed, and quickly conveyed the order.

Zhenghe was escorted down the tower by his own soldiers and galloped towards the north of the city.

This battle was the most inexplicable and aggrieved battle he had ever fought in his life.

It was inexplicable that the defeat was foreseen.

A few rounds of bombardment overwhelmed them, just like an ant meeting an elephant. This deep sense of powerlessness ordered them to flee if they did not flee.

In front of the Chinese army outside the city, Li Chengmu put down his binoculars and excitedly said to Xia Jing: "Mother, the rebels are going to flee!"

Xia Jing didn't need him to tell, she also found out that the rebels at the top of the city ran away without even taking the commander-in-chief flag.

Long Yutian excitedly said to Xia Jing: "Madam, this is the best time for us to take advantage of the victory!"

Xia Jing did not hesitate, drew out her sword, pointed it at the city wall of Feng County, and loudly ordered: "All soldiers obey the order, attack Feng County! Anyone who can capture the leader of the thieves Zheng He alive will receive a reward of one hundred taels, one hundred acres of fertile land, and a promotion to the next level! Charge! "

The generals following Xia Jing drew out their swords one after another and shouted loudly: "To get promoted and make a fortune, charge! Charge! Charge!"

The shouts of the soldiers were loud, and naturally spread into the city. The rebels, who were so frightened that they lost their combat effectiveness, stumbled and ran forward with the other rebels.

If they don't run away, they will die if they are caught by the imperial soldiers and horses. It's really not easy to be a prisoner. Some people would rather die than be a prisoner.

It is a shame and a shame for a soldier to be captured on the battlefield!
The soldiers and horses of the imperial court rushed to kill the enemy, the gods blocked and killed the gods, the Buddhas blocked and killed the Buddhas, and the city gates blocked and smashed open.

All the way into the city smoothly, the main force of the rebels had already escaped from the city, and those rebels running around in the city were basically blinded by the smoke of the shells.

Xia Jing didn't dislike it, so she asked them to gather them together and wash their eyes with the medicinal juice she prepared, and within twelve hours they would recover their eyesight.

These captives are all high-quality labor, and Xia Jing can't bear to waste them, so she can use them well and let them dig ore. After the spring, let them open up wasteland and help the court build railways.

The Lingnan Iron Workshop has developed and manufactured the steam engine, and the northern side only needs to start the spring when the snow melts to start repairing the railway.

In ancient times, food and food were all original, safe and environmentally friendly. The only downside was the inconvenient transportation.

If it can be built into a railway, then there will be another way for people to travel that has never been seen before.

"My mother captured some of the rebel prisoners, and about % of the rebels escaped. Sha Yuliang and Feng Tu led people to pursue them. I believe it will not be long before they will be forced to follow our pre-arranged plan. Enter Jizhou."

Xia Jing nodded: "Let everyone rest for the night, and continue to chase tomorrow."

"Drive Drive"

Two days later, outside a county town on the border of Jizhou across the Zhangshui River, several fast horses rushed into the city gate.

Many people stepped on the snow on the street, and the snow was slowly melting. The fast horse galloped past, splashing countless snow water, scaring the people on both sides of the street to hide in a hurry.

Even though they were forced into such a mess, they dared not speak out.

Some of them are upright, at most they only dare to sneer or swear a few words in secret, but they can't do actual harm.

"Report! My lord, the rebel army in the north of Henan has been defeated by the prince's troops. It has crossed the Zhangshui River and entered our territory of Jizhou. More than people from our army have been injured and fled into the mountains and forests. "

After hearing Ye Bushou's report, everyone present frowned.

Xiao Qi, governor of Jizhou, raised his eyebrows unexpectedly, "We stationed troops in Jizhou at this border. We thought that the rebels would not dare to cross the Zhangshui River no matter how daring they were, but I didn't expect them to be so courageous that they dared to trespass." Jizhou!"

Since they are so ignorant, then they will close the door and beat the dog, so that these thieves will know that the Jizhou governor is not easy to mess with!
The blood debt of 3000 people must be paid in blood!
Xiao Qi's eldest son, Xiao Baoyin, was the most angry. He is the eldest son of the family, and he will inherit everything in Jizhou in the future. Doesn't the rebel army rushing into Jizhou mean that it will cause harm to his family.

He didn't allow the thief to come and harm the house, so he decided to take the initiative to ask for a fight to teach the traitor a lesson.

Thinking of this, he asked Ye Bushou who was kneeling on the ground: "Do you know how many soldiers and horses the rebels have?"

Ye Bushou made some calculations in his mind, and said a rough number: "There are at least 3 people!"

"Thirty thousand!"

Xiao Baoyin was overjoyed, and turned to Xiao Qi to fight: "Father, give me 3 horses for my son, and I will deal with these ignorant thieves. I must let them know that not everyone can break into Jizhou casually!"

The other Jizhou generals and Xiao Yuncheng were surprised. They did not expect that Xiao Baoyin, who had been staying in Jizhou and never going out, would take the initiative to ask for a fight.

So generous, did he think that the rebels who fled in embarrassment were easy to deal with?

Xiao Qi was very pleased that his eldest son was willing to share the burden for him. All along, he liked to focus on safety in doing things, so his eldest son Xiao Baoyin wanted to go on an expedition, and he agreed, but the number of troops could not be , but .

The purpose of Xiao Qi's doing this is obvious, that is, he doesn't want his eldest son to be in danger. Experience is very important, but compared with experience, they think the safety of their son is more important.

Therefore, he dispatched soldiers and horses to him, elites against , not to mention Xiao Qi, the others also thought that with such strength, it would be absolutely crushing in front of the rebels.

"Give you , are you sure that you will drive the rebels out of Jizhou within half a month, or wipe them all out and use them as fertilizer for flowers and trees?"

When Xiao Baoyin heard that he was given troops, he was startled, and then excitedly wanted to run around the county town a few times.

Dad is so awesome!

However, he doesn't know anything about fighting. If he is asked to perform a certain task, he is absolutely powerless.

"Thank you father, my son will live up to your expectations, fight hard, defeat the rebels, show off the world, and let the world know that Jizhou can't be provoked by anyone!"

After finishing speaking, Xiao Baoyin wiped the sweat from his brow guiltily, no matter whether it is a loss or a win, we must first get the military power before we talk about it.
