Chapter 1320
He went to see Su Su [Ugh, what a cloying title]
Chapter 1320 He wanted to go back and see Su Su [Ugh, what a cheesy title]
Bai Baihu, Mu Da Mu Er, and the others also cursed the enemy's ancestors and immediately launched a fierce attack.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
Dozens of flints and several packets of gunpowder were hurled at the enemy.
Rumble rumble rumble rumble rumble!
The deafening roar of the collapsing mountain and the tremors of the splitting earth lasted for dozens of breaths before finally subsiding with a final, enormous rumble.
The final, deafening roar of thunder came from Dongmiecheng.
This kid is indeed fearless. Under the cover of A'ao, Da Liao, and Dong Er Tu, he led the last two thousand cavalrymen in three groups, cutting diagonally from the mountain road to attack.
Unfortunately, a physical body facing a twenty-pound gunpowder pack can only end in being pulverized.
Dong Miecheng and his warhorse were shattered, their flesh scattered across the battlefield.
The eastern cavalrymen who were nearby were terrified when they saw this and ran away without a care.
"It's shattered! The young royal family is destroyed! Retribution! Divine punishment! Run! Run!"
The trusted guards of Dongmiecheng all fled, and the remaining eastern troops, seeing this, could no longer hold out and also wanted to run away.
"Push the flag forward thirty meters. The entire army will follow the flag and pursue the enemy. Archers will attack from a distance. After thirty meters, the flag will stop, and the entire army will halt. We must get close to these enemy corpses and be on high alert for germs!" Jiang Dalang's latest military order was issued immediately.
The messengers immediately shouted, "Commander Jiang Qianhu has ordered..."
dong dong dong, dong dong dong!
The war drums sounded loudly.
"Push the battle flag forward thirty meters!"
"Archers, form ranks and launch a ranged attack!"
With a whoosh, the archers charged forward, drawing their bows and firing arrows as they ran.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
The arrows rained down like black raindrops, shooting towards the enemy troops to the left, right, and in front.
After three waves of arrows, the seven thousand cavalrymen in the east were almost wiped out, and the remaining hundred or so were not killed with arrows.
After all, too many arrows were used up, and we would be scolded at the post-battle meeting.
However, this small skirmish lasting only a quarter of an hour left Bei Qidewei with a grim expression. He ordered, "There aren't enough traps ahead. Retreat, set more traps, lure the enemy into the poison traps, and then surround and kill the Wei army's vanguard!"
The Wei army was wary of the poisons and fungi from the Eastern Desert, so they wouldn't send too many Wei troops to pursue them, but would only send their best vanguard to launch a surprise attack.
"As long as we eliminate the vanguard of the Wei army, the rest of the Wei army will be no threat!"
How could their 20,000-plus cavalry possibly kill over 100,000 people?
Therefore, they only killed the most elite vanguard troops of the Wei army.
After slaughtering the vanguard, the remaining soldiers are nothing more than their Eastern Desert army's rations; they can slaughter them and eat them whenever they're hungry.
but……
"Brother Wei, those Wei bastards have heavenly thunder weapons. They even blew up Dongmie City. If the Wei army uses these weapons to bombard us, how are we supposed to deal with it?!" Bei Qideer warned.
Bei Qidewei, not wanting the morale of the army to waver, said, "The Heavenly Thunder Weapon is just a more powerful flint, what is there to fear? Besides, it must have a range limit, we will be safe as long as we are out of its range."
Bei Qi De La agreed wholeheartedly: "Brother Wei is right. We are the true royal family protected by the gods. Even poisonous fungi can't kill us, so why should we be afraid of some broken weapon!"
"We're determined to take advantage of the cheap grain from the Wei people. Even if they have weapons, they're useless; these weapons will surely be ours!"
Bei Qi De La also said, "Heroes under my command, listen to my command! Be ready to follow my clan at any time to seize the weapons of the Wei bastards!"
"Thump thump ha ho!" His Eastern Desert cavalrymen shouted, singing strange tunes.
Their eyes were bloodshot, and they looked more excited than normal people, as if they were sick... In short, they had eaten too much meat and grain, and were no longer normal. "All heroes of the Eastern Desert, prepare!" Bei Qidewei ordered.
"Tom!"
"Tom!"
"Tom!"
???
Where does it hurt?
Xu Sanjun was puzzled, but he listened to Jiang Dalang's words and led a group of elite soldiers to lie in ambush in the crevices of the mountains on both sides of the main road.
While keeping his eyes fixed on the more than 20,000 enemy cavalry, he also glanced from time to time toward the Wei army—to see the banners of Jiang Dalang's troops.
If this military flag remains still, it means they intend to continue their covert operations.
If they wave their flags and signal with them, it means they have new orders to receive.
In the blink of an eye, Xu Sanjun's eyes lit up, and he started waving the military flag, waving it left-left-right, which meant that new recruits were coming to join them.
It seems that the young master not only intends to directly annihilate this enemy army, but also to carry out an assassination.
After Xu Sanjun understood the flag signals, he instructed the soldiers around him to give the new orders; the soldiers then repeated his gestures to inform their comrades who were lying in ambush further away.
"Big Brother, when did we attack and wipe out the Beiqi brothers?" Commander Deng and Commander Dai came over and asked.
He then cursed the people of Dongmo: "You dogs, what kind of poisonous bacteria are you using? We can't even have a proper fight!"
Because of the poisonous germs, they were hesitant to fight, fearing that they would contract the plague and cause the entire army to die.
"This is so incredibly frustrating!"
Jiang Dalang said, "Gentlemen, we'll soon be able to have a good fight."
He had General Mu Da Mu Er step forward and told everyone that Commander Zhen and his men had arrived with a batch of gunpowder.
"That's the Heavenly Thunder Weapon? Good heavens, not only is there a real weapon, but there are many of them, hahaha!" Commander Deng and Commander Dai laughed wildly with joy.
In fact, on the way to escort General Liang to Dongfu Town, they received a secret letter saying that a weapon as sharp as a thunderbolt had appeared, but they had never seen it before and thought it was something like a pine oil fire pot.
But just now, they witnessed the terrifying power of the Heavenly Thunder weapon.
The pine oil fire pot could only set a few enemy soldiers on fire, but this heavenly thunder weapon could blow up a whole group of people... Dong Miecheng was wearing a good suit of armor, and protected by the armor, even if you threw a pine oil fire pot at him, you couldn't ignite him.
But the sharp weapon blew him to pieces, and with a bang, this young royal was killed.
"Mu Er, is this the weapon you threw? Well done, you deserve a big credit!" Commander Dai praised Commander Mu Er.
Mu Erzongqi dared not speak, and cautiously looked at Mu Dazongqi.
General Mu said, "You see how useless I am and how you wasted this weapon. This mistake will definitely be remembered. Next time we distribute weapons, you will get twenty pounds less."
"Brother, why are you doubling the amount? According to the rules, the amount that was originally intended to be used should be deducted before the wasted amount is penalized!" General Mu Er protested, trying to argue and secure more weapons for himself.
After all, the number of sharp weapons was scarce, and their commander had gone to great lengths to obtain them, so they certainly couldn't afford to misuse them.
Mu Da sneered: "It's a good thing you killed a young member of the royal family, otherwise I would have punished you even more severely. Master Qin said that the raw materials for this weapon are not easy to convert and require time. It can't be made immediately just because you have the raw materials."
"No, what do you mean? You have the raw materials but you can't make it?!" Deng Qianhu, Dai Qianhu, and even Aunt Alan were all anxious.
"Dalang, come here, come here." Deng Qianhu pulled Jiang Dalang aside and asked in a low voice, "Do you know anything about the weapon your future wife made? How much is left in stock? We've been through thick and thin together, and our friendship is so deep. It would be reasonable for you to reveal some inside information or give your uncle a bigger share of the weapon, wouldn't it?"
Aunt Alan wanted to laugh... You should ask me instead of Jiang Qianhu. My relationship with Qin Dongjia is better than Jiang Qianhu's relationship with Qin Dongjia.
“Uncle Deng, I really don’t know anything about the weapons,” Jiang Dalang said. “Now is not the time to talk about that. I called you here to gather our strength and use the remaining weapons to assassinate the Beiqi brothers, so as to end this small skirmish quickly.”
He needs to finish quickly so he can go back and see Su Su.
