Steel Dynasty - Chapter 797

[Chapter 796 Dragon Flag Flying]
The melodious and stirring voice of the Charge hovered over the battlefield.
The order for a full-scale attack was conveyed, and the soldiers of the Chongqing Kingdom launched an angry roar and charged towards Pingzhou City.
At this moment, they forgot about life and death, and only had hatred for the barbarians in their hearts.
It was they who raised the butcher’s knife and killed the people of Dayu, causing them to lose their parents, wives and children.
They are the ones who plunder the country of Chongqing every year, leaving them hungry!
It was they who took away the land that once belonged to the Chongqing Kingdom, leaving them without land to cultivate.
In their eyes, no race in history is more cruel than the barbarians. Under their butcher knives, the country of Chongqing is always facing the end of the country and the genocide.
This is the destruction of an advanced civilization by a barbaric civilization, and they will never let this happen now!
“Kill!”
With a roar that shook the sky, the soldiers marched forward bravely. They wanted to use the swords and guns in their hands to win eternal honor for their parents behind them and for their country.
The barbarian soldiers watched in horror as the brave soldiers of the Chongqing Kingdom rushed toward them. What they feared most on the battlefield was the sound of the charging bugle of the soldiers of the Chongqing Kingdom.
This kind of bugle seems to have a magical power. Once it is blown, the soldiers of Dayu will have high morale and become very fierce.
And what they experience most is fear.
In front of the city, Lu Fei’s heart was filled with passion. He drew out the sword from his waist and followed the soldiers to kill into Pingzhou City.
After fighting against the barbarians for many years, he has understood the nature of the barbarians.
This is a backward and barbaric tribe. It is precisely because of their barbarism that they are not afraid of death.
But that doesn’t mean they aren’t afraid of death.
In fact, just as those who are stunned are afraid of being stunned, and those who are stunned are afraid of losing their lives, once the soldiers of the Chongqing Kingdom show that they are more bloodthirsty than them, these barbarian soldiers will also collapse.
On the other side, the barbarian cavalry was frantically attacking the vehicle array protecting the flanks.
However, under the command of Luo Xin, these cavalry were repulsed every time they charged, and the car formation became a barrier that prevented the cavalry from overcoming as usual.
The musketeers inside the vehicle formation formed a hollow square formation just like the last battle in Jizhou. They sometimes shot outside the vehicle formation and sometimes hid inside the vehicle formation.
In less than an hour, many corpses of barbarian cavalry were piled up outside the car formation.
After the first ten thousand troops failed to attack, the unwilling barbarian cavalry also sent two people to attack the vehicle formation again. Some of the cavalry dismounted directly and rushed towards the vehicle formation. They tried to approach the vehicle formation to open a gap,
but the barbarians who charged slowly Soldiers are the best targets for musketeers to shoot. Unlike the Battle of Jizhou, the Chongqing army is now equipped with rifled guns.
Both distance and power are far superior to previous muskets.
After a burst of smoke filled the air, the barbarian soldiers fell down one after another. Under the intensive firepower, the barbarians were still unable to get close to the car formation.
Compared with Lu Fei and Luo Xin, Lei Ming was in an extremely difficult situation. Wu Shu Gu concentrated most of the cavalry to try to eliminate them all.
After the cavalry attack from both sides, they fell into a melee. The cavalry of Dayu was surrounded by barbarians, and the barbarian cavalry was surrounded by soldiers of Dayu.
The sabers waved and blood spattered. Both sides in the melee became red-eyed. Some angry soldiers pounced directly on the barbarian soldiers and rolled to the ground to continue fighting. Some soldiers rushed back and forth with their sabers.
While sending some cavalry to fight Lei Ming, Wu Shugu also concentrated 30,000 cavalry to launch a death charge towards the hollow square formation.
Facing the barbarians who rushed over as if they were desperate, the first hollow square formation withstood the first impact of the barbarian cavalry head-on after tilting all its firepower.
But what they faced next was the second and third impact.
With a numerical disadvantage, their hollow phalanx was torn apart by the barbarians during the fourth barbarian charge, and the soldiers holding muskets also fell into a melee with the barbarians.
“Retreat, retreat to the back.”
After the phalanx was torn apart, the division commander commanding the phalanx shouted anxiously. Once the array was disrupted, the cavalry would massacre the infantry below.
This group of soldiers were all veterans who had experienced hundreds of battles. They immediately reacted and ran towards the gaps between other phalanxes.
The barbarian cavalry were in hot pursuit. At this time, other phalanxes began to tilt their firepower. The barbarians who were chasing them fell one after another. At this time, another wave of barbarian cavalry rushed towards them.
The division commanders in the middle of the hollow square array all looked grim. They knew very well that if the barbarian cavalry continued to launch death-like charges, they would soon be unable to withstand it.
But no matter what, they cannot retreat now, because once they retreat, Lu Fei’s army will be killed by the barbarian cavalry, and the war in Pingzhou City will end in failure.
“Hold on, we will hold on to this place even if we are the last one left.” A decisive order came from a division commander.
The soldiers held their muskets tightly and gritted their teeth as they looked at the barbarian cavalry charging over.
No one is not afraid of death, but to him there are some things that are more important than death. This is the reason why they insist on staying here without collapsing.
The fighting continued, and the entire Pingzhou City battlefield became a world of blood and fire.
In front of Pingzhou City, Lu Fei pierced the chest of the barbarian Captain Ten Thousands with his sword. Facing the barbarian soldiers who began to collapse, he shouted and led the soldiers into Pingzhou City.
“Put the dragon flag of Great Chongqing on top of the city, hurry up!” Lu Fei said to the guards beside him as he ran.
After receiving the order, the guard immediately climbed up from the broken city wall to the top with the dragon flag in his hand. Then he stood on the city wall and waved the dragon flag vigorously.
This scene was quickly noticed by both sides on the battlefield.
Luo Xin saw the dragon flag on the city wall and laughed and said: “As expected of Lu Fei, he is still brave in fighting.”
Then he looked at Lei Ming, who was in a bad situation and said: “Reinforce Huben’s third army immediately!”
Now Lu Fei’s army The city has been broken, and there is no need for him to protect the flanks, because the cavalry cannot launch a large-scale attack in the city and poses little threat to Lu Fei.
Wu Shugu and Lei Ming also saw the dragon flag at the top of the city. When Lei Ming saw this, he immediately became excited and waved his saber more vigorously. The barbarian cavalry who rushed over fell to his saber one by one.
Contrary to Lei Ming’s reaction, Wu Shu Gu’s heart felt cold. After guarding for such a long time, they still failed to save Pingzhou City.
“Retreat!” Wu Shugu gave the order without any hesitation.
The entry of the Chongqing army into the city shows that the army in Pingzhou City was completely defeated. Now the Chongqing army can concentrate all its forces to deal with his cavalry.
If he did not leave, he would suffer even more heavy losses, and after this battle, he became more and more clear that only cavalry could pose a threat to the Great Yu Kingdom.
Other armies holding swords could not stop the Chongqing army holding muskets.
