Steel Dynasty - Chapter 645
[Chapter 644 The Great Victory of Yunzhou]
The midday sun shone on the huge battlefield in front of Yunzhou City.
The strong smell of blood drifted along with the north wind and was clearly audible. The originally yellow land was now dyed crimson with blood. The corpses of Yan and Liang soldiers were scattered across the endless land.
In the sky, crows were circling, and their low cries seemed to be singing an elegy for this war.
Some of the remaining Xuanjia cavalry still refused to surrender. They attacked the car formation again and again, and at the same time, some cavalry came towards the bull-running column.
“Hollow phalanx!”
Under the high command, the original column quickly transformed into one hollow phalanx after another.
When the Xuanjia Army rushed over, Niu Ben shouted loudly: “Fire!”
“Bang, bang, bang…”
Several hollow square formations emitted a burst of white smoke at the same time, and the Xuanjia Army that rushed over suddenly fell on their backs.
Zhao Ang died in the battle, and there were not many Xuanjia troops left who were stubbornly resisting. They were outnumbered, and the outcome of the war was already determined.
When the sun set, all the remaining Xuanjia troops were wiped out.
“We won! We won!”
Suddenly a soldier shouted, followed by huge cheers on the battlefield.
Facing the arrogant Allied Forces of the Three Kings, they fought a beautiful battle of annihilation, and the 350,000 Allied Forces of the Three Kings were wiped out in the blink of an eye.
After eight days of fierce fighting, the feudal kingdom did not lose an inch of territory, and their relatives behind them also avoided being massacred by the three kings’ coalition forces.
The soldiers’ cheers that filled the sky made Niu Ben and other generals smile.
Lu Fei sweated and said to Niu Ben: “General, we defeated the three kings’ coalition. Now it’s time for King Yan, King Liang and King Zhao to come crying and beg us.”
“Hahaha…” Niu Ben was in a happy mood. He had been tense during this war. After all, the coalition army of 350,000 was not a small number.
However, with the cooperation of the Yong Army, they successfully prevented the Three Kings Alliance from invading the feudal country. At the same time, just as he had promised Xiao Ming, they successfully annihilated all the effective forces of the Three Kings Alliance in this battle.
In addition to the surrendered soldiers, the remaining soldiers on the battlefield today are all soldiers from the Three Kingdoms who died in the battle, even though the second prince Xiao Sa led the Liang army to turn back.
However, Qi Guangyi and Yong Jun were already ambushing them halfway, and he believed that it would not be long before news of Liang Jun’s annihilation came.
Luo Hong, Bai Mu, Luo Xin, Ye Qingyun and other generals also rushed over at this time, with excited light in their eyes, exchanging the joy of victory with each other.
They also knew in their hearts that this battle was a key battle to determine the situation in the north. This time they won a big victory, and the decision-making power in the north would be transferred to the hands of the feudal country.
“Hehehe, isn’t this Yan country very arrogant? Now we have to see how arrogant he is.” Luo Xin said jokingly.
Ye Qingyun agreed: “You’re right. The envoys sent by the three kings dared to show off their power to His Highness. It’s like an old woman eating arsenic and getting tired of living.”
“Your Highness, you are the emperor now!” Bai Mu reminded.
Ye Qingyun was startled, and raised his hand to slap his mouth twice, “Crow’s mouth, Bai Mu is right, it’s the emperor, it’s the emperor!”
The others immediately laughed when they saw it.
At this time, Luo Hong wiped the blood on his sword and said in a solemn voice: “I really hope I can fight back to Chang’an one day earlier.”
This sentence silenced the generals. Only then did they realize that the war had just begun. Although they did not No matter how attached I am to Chang’an, after all, Chang’an was once the imperial city of Great Chongqing.
If they don’t take the imperial city, they will live with regrets.
Niu Ben glanced in the direction of Chang’an City and said: “This time all the elite troops of the Three Kings Alliance have been lost, and the offensive and defensive momentum in the north has been changed. These rebels will not survive long.” The
generals nodded after hearing this.
After a pause, Niu Ben said, “Although the war is over, these prisoners still need to be dealt with. You now lead your respective tribes to clean up the battlefield immediately to avoid causing a plague.”
Lu Fei and others’ expressions tightened upon hearing this.
This plague was something that made people jealous, and it often appeared in wars. They did not dare to ignore it, and immediately organized soldiers to collect and burn the corpses one by one.
At the same time, they also collected weapons and armor on the battlefield, which could be sent to the Qingzhou Iron and Steel Workshop for steelmaking to make more firearms for them.
After giving the order to clean up the battlefield, Niu Ben immediately sent people to convey the results of the battle to Qingzhou. This would be the biggest gift for Xiao Ming who had ascended the throne.
And his mission is not over yet. He will take advantage of this victory to attack Kaizhou and Bianzhou, two cities that belong to the royal family. After these two cities, they will gradually regain other states and counties.
Three days later, Niu Ben’s battle report arrived in Qingzhou.
On this day, Xiao Ming was discussing the feudal government affairs with the ministers in the Yizheng Hall as usual. At this time, the post general shouted the battle report of Yunzhou’s great victory and sent it outside the Yizheng Hall.
All the ministers who heard the news looked shocked. Xiao Ming was stunned for a moment, and then he was overjoyed.
He immediately asked the general to submit the battle report.
His Royal Highness, Pang Yukun, and Fiji stood at the front. Behind them were officials from the Sixth Ministry, the Chamber of Commerce and other organizations. After being shocked, they gradually showed expressions of ecstasy.
Although they are not on the front line, they are still nervous about the war in Yunzhou, because this war will determine the rise and fall of the feudal country.
After getting the battle report, Xiao Ming immediately read it. Niu Ben described the battle in detail. In the decisive battle, the three kings’ coalition was completely defeated.
“My dear friends, in this battle the Allied Forces of the Three Kings were completely defeated and suffered heavy losses. General Niu can be said to have won a great victory. This shows that the Allied Forces of the Three Kings are nothing more than paper tigers and are vulnerable to a single blow!” Xiao Ming said loudly, his heart filled with excitement. Ambition.
First, they eliminated the King of Wei, and then defeated the coalition of three kings. The advantages of firearms and strict training and discipline allowed the feudal army to easily defeat the traditional feudal army.
This victory made him confident. King Yan, King Liang and King Zhao were no longer enemies that he feared. Now he could finally turn his eyes to the north.
The civil strife in the Great Chongqing Kingdom should also end. Killing each other among the same ethnic groups is meaningless. The real enemies of the Great Chongqing Kingdom are foreign races.
The ambition of those who are not our race to destroy the Chinese nation has never disappeared, whether it is the barbarians, the Japanese, or the Western powers.
Whether it is the past, the present, or the future, he comes from modern times and is better able to see the historical changes of these hundreds of years.
Now that he is here, he must seek to leave eternal blessings for his country and nation in this jungle of the world.
At the same time that news of the battle reached Qingzhou, news of the destruction of the Three Kings’ Allied Forces also reached Bozhou and Chang’an.
When King Yan heard the news from the defeated soldiers, he slumped down on the throne, his face was as white as flour, and his eyes seemed to have lost their vitality.
