More children, more blessings, starting from marrying a wife to fight for world hegemony

Chapter 343 The failure of the war was all that woman’s fault!

Seeing the soldiers from the North still standing where they were, Ying Feiyu felt something was wrong.

The two armies are fighting, and the other side doesn't actually place their troops in formation?
Mu Changtian is also a veteran, how could he not know the importance of military formations.

Soldiers without a military formation are just a pile of scattered sand. Could it be that Mu Changtian wants to lead this pile of scattered sand to fight against their powerful army of 30?

Originally, there were only a few soldiers from the Northern Kingdom, probably only tens of thousands by visual inspection. There was no chance of winning against tens of thousands of people against 30. What's more, these soldiers from the Northern Kingdom were not defending the city, but running outside the city to confront Dawu head-on.

When fighting outside the city, when two armies confront each other, the most important thing is the change of military formation. The side without military formation will basically be defeated.

Ying Feiyu felt something was wrong. Mu Changtian was not a fool. How could he not even set up a military formation? What was Beiguo doing?
Although he couldn't figure out what kind of medicine Mu Changtian was selling in the gourd, since Beiguo had exposed such a big flaw, Ying Feiyu had no intention of being polite.

Under the sound of drums, the army led by Ying Feiyu quickly set up their military formations. However, at this moment, the drums from the North Country also sounded.

When he heard the sound of drums from the North Kingdom, Ying Feiyu thought that Mu Changtian and the others had just reacted and wanted to set up a military formation. He couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth slightly, and then said to himself: "It's too late!"

The next moment, Ying Feiyu was ready to lead the army to attack. However, at this moment, a deafening sound suddenly came from the distance. The sound was so loud that even the drums on both sides could not cover it up.

Before Ying Feiyu could realize what was happening, a huge iron ball landed in Dawu's formation.

Under normal circumstances, the soldiers in the military formation are relatively densely positioned. If a cannonball falls directly into the crowd, the consequences can be imagined.

Just when people thought that the iron ball was just a catapult thrown by the North, the iron ball exploded instantly. The next moment, the soldiers around the iron ball were blown down.

The violent explosion immediately woke up Dawu's soldiers, and also woke up Ying Feiyu. However, Dawu's 30 soldiers were also experienced soldiers after all, and they did not panic immediately.

Ying Feiyu was about to issue a new order when, at the next moment, a continuous roar came from the distance.

On the artillery position of the North Kingdom, the soldiers of the North Kingdom had entered a fighting state and kept firing artillery shells at Ying Feiyu's military formation.

As cannonballs exploded in Ying Feiyu's military formation, the limbs of Dawu's soldiers began to fly all over the sky.

Ying Feiyu finally realized why the Northern Kingdom was able to conquer the Northern Land so easily and defeated the army of King Tianqi who had a great master.

He immediately gave the order and shouted: "Disperse!"

Although he didn't know what the exploding iron ball was, he knew very well that if he continued to maintain the military formation and maintain such a dense position, the 30 troops he brought would soon be killed by the opponent.

After hearing Ying Feiyu's order, the ordering soldier quickly waved the order flag. However, at this moment, a sharp voice came from beside Ying Feiyu. The next moment, Ying Feiyu realized the threat to his life, and he hurriedly Get out of the way.

He dodged, but the messenger behind him fell down. Ying Feiyu looked back and found a small hole on the forehead of the messenger, as if he had been injured by some hidden weapon.

Immediately afterwards, many heads were exposed from the trenches dug by the North Country, and then countless bullets poured out.

Nowadays, Northland's muskets are not accurate enough, but Ying Feiyu's military formation has not dispersed yet. The soldiers are too densely positioned, which is no different from queuing up to be shot.

Facing the rain of bullets pouring down, Ying Feiyu immediately said: "The whole army retreats!!!"

As soon as the words fell, the drums sounded again. The messengers in the military formation waved flags frantically. Dawu's 30 troops retreated directly. They did not last even a quarter of an hour.

This was not because of how many people they had died, but because they had never seen the weapons used by the Northern Kingdom. The artillery and muskets shocked them so much that they were extremely frightened.

Human beings are always most afraid of the unknown. Ying Feiyu is afraid that if this continues, the 30 troops he leads will be trapped here and must retreat now.

The weapons used by the Northern Kingdom were too terrifying. They must find out what weapons the Northern Kingdom used. Ying Feiyu did not intend to continue fighting with the Northern Kingdom's army until they understood what the Northern Kingdom's weapons were and how they obtained them.

But this was just his personal thought. Mu Changtian and the others would not give Ying Feiyu and the others time to see Dawu's 30-strong army retreat in confusion.

After Mu Changtian gave an order, the Northern Army launched a comprehensive counterattack, and Wen Renlie's heavy cavalry also took action.

Seeing that the Northern Army began to counterattack, Ying Feiyu, who was retreating, immediately asked one of his lieutenants to stay and lead an army of [-] to hold back the Northern Army.

Although he was reluctant to do so, he was on the battlefield after all. The military orders were overwhelming, so the deputy general had to stay. He was planning to let the soldiers fire arrows to stop the northern army, but they were greeted by another violent bombardment. fry.

Before Dawu's [-]-strong army had time to organize an effective defense, the soldiers were bombarded by artillery.

Even the experienced soldiers were frightened by this terrifying cannon. They no longer had the courage to face the northern army. Soon the [-] soldiers were defeated, even if the drums sounded again. No matter how loud the sound was, no matter how much the messenger asked them to go back, they would never go back.

The fear in the hearts of the soldiers has been maximized. Now even military law cannot restrict their determination to escape. Seeing that the [-] soldiers in the rear were defeated so quickly, Ying Feiyu was very angry inside, but now he can only be incompetent and furious. .

The weapons of the North are really terrible. The explosion of the iron ball can basically catch up with the Grand Master's attack. One iron ball is equivalent to one shot of the Grand Master. Ten iron balls are equivalent to ten shots of the Grand Master. One hundred iron balls are equivalent to the Grand Master's attack. The iron ball is equivalent to the Grandmaster taking one hundred shots.

Who can withstand a hundred grand masters? Even if Dawu's main force comes here, I'm afraid they won't be able to withstand the bombing of the North Kingdom.

Ying Feiyu just wants to escape to Lingyun City quickly, and then rely on the city wall to try to resist the counterattack of the Northern Army.

At this moment, a deputy general next to Ying Feiyu said in horror: "It's the heavy cavalry! The heavy cavalry from the North Kingdom is dispatched!!!"

Hearing this, Ying Feiyu quickly looked back behind him, and his eyes were immediately fixed on the Northern Heavy Cavalry Corps.

Those black armors and the murderous aura soaring to the sky made Ying Feiyu, a battle-experienced general, shudder.

If there was a military formation, Ying Feiyu would not be completely afraid of the heavy cavalry charging into the formation.

It is true that ordinary military formations cannot stop the charge of heavy cavalry, but Dawu's military formation has been continuously evolved in actual combat, and it can still play a great role in resisting the charge of heavy cavalry.

But now their military formation has been completely broken by the iron ball from the North. Now they are in a state of rout. In this state, they have no way to resist the charge of the heavy cavalry.

The key is that most of Dawu's army are infantry. No matter how fast these infantry escape, they cannot compare with the black cavalry on horseback.

Seeing the black cavalry from the North frantically harvesting the lives of Dawu soldiers, Ying Feiyu's face turned ugly, but he had no choice now.

Their soldiers were scared out of their wits. At this time, there was no way to form a formation to resist the charge of the black cavalry. Besides, the North Country also had that terrifying iron ball weapon. Even if they formed an array, their formation would be blown up in a few blows. open.

Ying Feiyu said coldly at this time: "Speed ​​up!"

It was found that those soldiers who fell behind were all regarded as abandoned by Ying Feiyu. Instead, he hoped that the heavy cavalry in the North would focus on those soldiers to create more time for them to escape.

About an hour later, corpses lay everywhere outside Yong'an County, and the corpses of Dawu soldiers were everywhere.

At the same time, Ying Feiyu led the remaining soldiers and finally arrived at Lingyun City. At this time, the gates of Lingyun City were wide open, and the people were coming in and out, not knowing what was going on.

Seeing many soldiers suddenly appearing in the distance, the people in Lingyun City were stunned, and some people began to complain.

"We are going to fight again, and we are the ones who suffer every time we fight."

"Those aristocratic families don't produce any food, so they are looking for food from us poor families."

"I can't live a day like this anymore. If you ask me, we might as well go to the North."

"I heard that as long as you become a person from the North Country, you can immediately get a large piece of land, and you will also be exempted from agricultural taxes forever."

"You are crazy. You are discussing this kind of thing without fear of being overheard by those military masters!"...

Just as the people were talking about it, Ying Feiyu's remnant soldiers rushed directly to the city gate. The people had no time to dodge and were instantly knocked to the ground by the horses. The horses behind them continued to step on the people. For a moment, the city was The door suddenly became extremely chaotic, and many people were trampled to death.

Before the common people who had avoided the army could calm down, Ying Feiyu's voice suddenly came from the city gate, "Close the door!!!"

The Dawu people at the door were all confused. Why did Lingyun City suddenly close down? At this moment, billowing dust appeared again in the distance.

At this time, an ordinary Dawu citizen who had been to the Northern Kingdom instantly recognized the black cavalry from the Northern Kingdom. He quickly shouted: "It's the heavy cavalry from the Northern Kingdom!!!"

One stone stirred up a thousand waves, and the people of Dawu panicked instantly. In their opinion, no matter which country the soldiers were from, they were all the same, and they would burn, kill, and loot.

"The people from the North are coming!!!"

"Run!!!!"

"Do not kill me!!!"

……

Seeing the chaotic Dawu people at the city gate, Wen Renlie raised his hand, and the soldiers behind him immediately stopped.

At this time, the common people at the gate of the city found that the black cavalry suddenly stopped, and they did not continue to run away. Now they were sandwiched between the black cavalry and the city wall. They had no place to escape if they wanted to escape, so they could only wait quietly for the black cavalry. next step.

Wen Renlie glanced at Lingyun City at this time, then used his skills and loudly said to the people of Dawu at the gate of Lingyun City: "Emperor Wu did not care about the lives of the people of Dawu, he imposed exorbitant levies, and sent troops to attack the Northern Kingdom in an attempt to destroy the Northern Kingdom. Now Emperor Wu's plan has been Defeated, Dawu’s 30-strong army has been disintegrated by the Northern Kingdom.”

"The King of the North is kind and promises not to harm any common people who take refuge in the Northern Kingdom, and the soldiers of the Northern Kingdom will not take the initiative to embarrass any common people, nor will they take a piece of needle from the poor people, but will only pay away the wealth of the landlords and aristocratic families. "

Hearing this, the Dawu people at the gate of Lingyun City looked at me and I looked at you. In their hearts, they couldn't believe what Wen Renlie said.

If a soldier doesn't burn, kill, and loot, then he is still a soldier?
At this time, a common man said: "I have been to the North Country. The North Country is very rich now. I'm afraid they don't like the little money we poor people have. Even if they want to rob, they will rob the money of the landlord families. "

Another person said: "I think so too. The general said he would not embarrass us."

At this time, other voices came from the crowd, "Do you really believe what he said? Your Majesty started this war. Now that Dawu has been defeated and the soldiers from the North have come in, how can they do nothing?"

"It's over, we're all going to die here."

Just when the people at the city gate were worried, Wen Renlie turned around and left directly with the black cavalry.

Ying Feiyu at the city gate finally breathed a sigh of relief after seeing this scene. He quickly asked his subordinate Fei Ge to pass a message to the capital for help.

At the same time, when the people of Dawu saw that the black cavalry from the North had just left, they felt incredible. Many of them who were entering and leaving the city were caravans. As a result, the heavy cavalry from the North came in front of them. Those soldiers But he didn't come over to rob them of their belongings.

Is it true that, as the general from the Northern Kingdom said, the Northern Kingdom really has no intention of embarrassing ordinary people like them?
Although some people believed Wen Renlie's words, many people still rushed home after the black cavalry left, preparing to flee Youping County with their families.

After Wen Renlie withdrew, he soon reunited with Mu Changtian who led his troops into Youping County.

Wen Renlie led the cavalry, and his main task was to pursue the fleeing enemies, while the siege was left to the army led by Mu Changtian.

Mu Changtian had artillery, and it was impossible to resist Lingyun City's broken gate.

Ying Feiyu, who was already resting in the county captain's mansion, suddenly heard a rumble from outside.

After a while, a soldier rushed into the yard and said: "General, general, it's not good!!! The army of the North is coming!!!"

Ying Feiyu slammed the tea cup in his hand to the ground and said angrily: "Damn it!"

"What do the intelligence organizations under the eldest princess do? They are all a bunch of losers!!!"

"The Northern Kingdom has such terrifying weapons, but the eldest princess doesn't even know about it!!!"

"The failure of the war was all that woman's fault!!!"

Ying Feiyu became so emotional that he stopped talking about the eldest princess at the end and said directly, "That woman."

When people are afraid, they will have a lot of anger in their hearts. Ying Feiyu is now extremely angry. He puts all the responsibility on Wu Yunwan.

In his opinion, Wu Yunwan was the one who controlled the Dawu intelligence agency. As a result, she didn't know anything about the weapons owned by the North, and she didn't even provide relevant information to the court. As a result, their 30-strong army was defeated. .

At this time, a deputy general came to Ying Feiyu and said: "General, let's retreat through the back door!!!"

That kind of weapon is so powerful that the gates of Lingyun City may not be able to block it. If the Northern Army were to surround the entire Lingyun City, we would not be able to evacuate even if we wanted to.

After hearing this, Ying Feiyu came back to his senses. He tried to calm down his inner emotions and calm down.

He thought about it at this time. Youping County is located between Dayue and Dawu. If he escapes directly and leaves Lingyun City, the main force entering Dayue will probably be cut off from its logistics supply. Even if he escapes back to the capital by then, , will also be dealt with by military law.

Thinking of this, Ying Feiyu clenched his fists and then said: "We can't withdraw! If we withdraw now! If you lose Youping County, if you lose Youping County, my general will lose his head when he goes back!"

"I don't believe that the Northern Army can invade!"

Having said this, Ying Feiyu took his sword and headed towards the gate of Lingyun City.

By this time the siege had begun.

Many cannonballs fell on the tower, leaving holes everywhere in the tower.

Although Dawu's soldiers were frightened by the cannons, they continued to use catapults and bows and arrows to fight back, but these things did no harm to Mu Changtian and the others at all.

The range of the artillery of the North Kingdom has basically exceeded the range of ordinary archers. If it is not an archer above the ninth level, it will be very difficult to shoot the soldiers of the North Kingdom in the distance.

When Ying Feiyu came to the tower, his face turned livid when he saw the bombed corpses everywhere.

But soon he also discovered a problem.

Although the weapons of the North are very powerful, they seem to be far less numerous than before. It didn't take long for the artillery fire in the North to become sparse, and even the soldiers were able to judge the impact point of the shells in advance and then avoid the attack. .

Seeing that the number of cannonballs suddenly became so small, Ying Feiyu seemed to understand something. He laughed and said: "The more powerful the weapon, the more precious it is. The power of this iron ball is so huge, it must be very powerful." It is difficult to manufacture and the quantity must be limited.”

"The North Kingdom's attack has become so weak, which proves that this weapon is almost used up. We just need to hold off until the court's reinforcements arrive, and there will definitely be a chance to counterattack."

Hearing Ying Feiyu's words, the generals and soldiers around him became excited.

Yes, this kind of weapon is so powerful, so the manufacturing method must be very difficult, and it is impossible to have too many.

The Northern Army has used so much before, and it is almost time to use up. Even if they use those iron balls to blow up the city gate and blow it down, as long as the Dawu soldiers in the city can guard the city gate, the soldiers of the Northern Kingdom will Still can't get in.
