Chapter 376
With the retreat of the Eternal Army, the two-winged cavalry took the opportunity to cover up and kill the past, and continued to pursue the fleeing enemy army, expanding the results of the battle.

Looking at the Eternal Army fleeing in embarrassment, Lin Yifan sighed slightly. Because he used gunpowder in advance, he changed the previously established battle plan, so that he failed to achieve the goal of completely annihilating the enemy army.However, he didn't regret it. Victory was important, but the lives of the soldiers were equally important. After all, he relented.

This battle changed Lin Yifan's original plan. He found that the Eternal Army's combat strength was not inferior to his own, and it would be impossible to win with the current strength.What's more, now that gunpowder, a sharp weapon at the bottom of the box, has been exposed in advance, it will not be able to win the next time against the Eternal Army.

At this moment, Hou Mingfeng and Tang Rong were so shocked that they could not speak. The thick smoke and fire just now reversed the situation of the battle in an instant.Under the attack of gunpowder, the Eternal Army was as fragile as a clay figurine. On the battlefield, there were broken flesh and blood everywhere.

"This, what is this?" Tang Rong trembled all over, staring at the Shura Field on the battlefield with wide eyes.At this moment, he suddenly realized that Hengshan's strength was far more than what was shown on the surface.With this mighty weapon, the world is so big, who can control Hengshan?Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel endless sadness. Is the Tianwu Dynasty really coming to an end?
Hou Mingfeng grabbed the guardrail in front of him excitedly, his eyes burst out with eagerness, "My lord, is this the power of gunpowder? Unexpectedly, it can emit such supernatural power. If this weapon is used on a large scale on the battlefield, even thousands of troops Kazuma, it won't help either."

Lin Yifan smiled slightly, and said modestly with pride, "Haha, General Hou is overrated. The development of gunpowder is still in the initial stage. It is too early to use this thing to defeat the enemy. However, I, Hengshan, have this Gunpowder is almost invincible, and it will be much easier to attack cities and villages in the future.”

"What your lord said is very true. There is such a thing in Hengshan, and there is no one in the world who can resist it." Hou Mingfeng nodded seriously. It will turn from the talent of people to the excellence of utensils."

Lin Yifan looked at Hou Mingfeng in astonishment, showing a hint of disbelief. He never expected that Hou Mingfeng could see the evolution of the future war from this battle. "General Hou is a great talent, I admire him."

According to post-war statistics on the battlefield, nearly [-] enemies were wiped out in this battle, and more than [-] horses were captured; more than [-] people were killed and wounded, and hundreds of carriages were damaged.

After a brief discussion, everyone agreed that advancing troops at this time would only put the army in danger. For the current plan, they could only retreat to Beishan County first, and use defense instead of attack.

Just when Lin Yifan was hesitating, the cavalry in front came to report, and the [-] cavalry commanded by Luo Feng detoured hundreds of miles to get behind the Eternal Army ahead of time, just in time to encounter the Eternal Army who was fleeing in defeat.Even if Luo Feng led the cavalry to meet the enemy head-on, they defeated most of the enemy army in one fell swoop and killed tens of thousands.Then join up with the chasing friendly army, and once again chase and kill the eternal rout.

Lin Yifan's face showed joy, but his brows still couldn't be stretched, "Well, Luo Feng did not disappoint me. It's just a pity, this battle can only severely injure the enemy army, but it is a pity that it was not wiped out."

"My lord, it is considered a great victory for General Luo Feng to be able to severely damage the enemy's cavalry." Hou Mingfeng showed excitement on his face, "In this way, it is tantamount to breaking down the morale of the Eternal Army and making the people of Shazhou have more confidence in Hengshan. Yes. My lord, the last general thinks that we should publicize this illustrious military exploit to the world, so as to inspire people and boost morale."

"What General Hou said is reasonable. Since there is no possibility of a quick victory in this battle to aid the sand, we have no choice but to face off in Shazhou and see who can last longer." Lin Yifan nodded slightly, sighed.

"Send the order, the army will retreat and return to Beishan County. Send another message to Luo Feng, don't chase after the poor, accept as soon as you see one, don't fall into the enemy's trap." Lin Yifan looked around at the crowd and ordered in public.

Soon, the whole army retreated slowly, gradually disappearing on this messy battlefield.

On the border of Dingxi County, on the vast wasteland, the sound of countless roaring horseshoes resounded throughout the world, and a dark tide surged crazily on the boundless land.

Behind the black tide, another cavalry was biting the tail of the black tide, and any cavalry who fell behind were instantly submerged under the hooves of the horses.

At this moment, not far ahead, a dark team was slowly moving forward.At this moment, seeing a large number of cavalry in front of them, they immediately assembled and stood up, ready to fight.

And Ang Kui, who was in the midst of the rout, saw the identity of the team in front at a glance, and was overjoyed immediately, and immediately shouted to the back: "The front is our reinforcements, if you want to survive, hurry over there!"

Soon, the cavalry at the back also noticed the situation ahead, immediately cheered and rushed forward.

Not long after, the eternal cavalry in front circled behind the infantry's two wings and began to repair.What appeared in front of Luo Feng was an eternal infantry force of more than [-] soldiers.

Luo Feng quickly ordered the whole army to stop the pursuit and confront them not far away.He looked closely at the enemy formation in front of him, his eyes were serious, and he couldn't stop thinking about the strategy to defeat the enemy.

After a while, Luo Feng immediately ordered his [-] cavalry archers to go around and shoot before the enemy's formation.Seeing six thousand cavalry archers forming a long snake formation, they nimbly slid towards the front of the enemy formation, and arrows made of fine steel were constantly thrown out, falling into the eternal army one after another.The Eternal Infantry tried to block the arrows with wooden shields, but they did not expect that the arrows of the cavalry archers were specially made heavy arrows with a very strong penetrating power, which cannot be resisted by ordinary shields.

Soon, under the unbelievable eyes of the Eternal Army, the soldiers in the formation were killed and wounded, causing internal turmoil.In order to counterattack and stabilize the morale of the army, a rain of arrows was shot from the formation, and they all fell in front of the cavalry archers.It's a pity that due to the gap in weapons, except for a few arrows that hit the cavalry, the rest fell ahead of the cavalry and were difficult to reach.

Then there was another round of riding and shooting, and a group of people fell here in the big formation.Ang Kui, who was the general of the cavalry, was in a hurry, and he didn't care about continuing to repair, so he brought a cavalry to kill the cavalry archers.The cavalry archers didn't want to fight in close combat, and retreated while fighting. Arrows shot the chasing enemy troops off their horses.As for the Hengshan cavalry, a heavy cavalry immediately rushed out of the main formation, and aggressively charged at the enemy cavalry who were chasing them.

Ang Kui naturally knew how powerful this heavy cavalry was, so he immediately reined in the horse's head and led the army back, not daring to confront him face to face.There were not many heavy cavalry, and they didn't dare to attack easily in the face of the opponent's large formation, so they had to retreat slowly.

In this way, amidst the temptations of the two sides coming and going, an order was finally sent from the rear of the Hengshan Army.After getting Lin Yifan's decision, Luo Feng had no choice but to look at the Eternal Army opposite him unwillingly, and ordered the whole army to return.He also knew that he was wasting his time here, and when the opponent's cavalry came to their senses, they would change positions.

After Lin Yifan led the army back to Beishan County, he immediately publicized the victory of the battle, and placed the heads of more than [-] eternal soldiers captured outside the city for the common people to watch.For a time, the confidence of the people in Shazhou soared, and there was an endless stream of people who came to apply for the job.

At the same time, Lin Yifan ordered Luo Fengshu to lead [-] cavalrymen and Xiao Changying's rebel army to sneak into Dingxi County and form a guerrilla army behind the enemy.There are three purposes, one is to destroy the Eternal Army food and grass transportation channel, and the other is to contact the surviving Shazhou people, establish a base area behind the enemy, continue to expand the troops, and accumulate strength.The third is to attack small groups of enemy troops, harass most of the enemy troops, and strengthen the determination of Dingxi City to resist.

With the continuous transmission of information, Lin Yifan knew that this time the Eternal Army dispatched more than 30 troops, captured most of the Western Regions in a very short period of time, severely damaged the Western Golden Wolf Khanate, and forced it to cede the eastern part of the Western Regions Area, retreat to the western section of the Western Regions.For the Eastern Expedition, the Eternal Army dispatched 20 soldiers and horses to break through the Tianmen Pass and enter the pass, and another [-] soldiers guarded the Western Regions to ensure the transportation of logistics supplies.

Looking at the more and more detailed information, Lin Yifan frowned even more. The Eternal Army dispatched such a huge force this time not only to attack Shazhou, but also to directly occupy the Central Plains.If I am defeated here, I am afraid that the Eternal Army can directly capture Anzhou, go south to Huazhou, and then directly hit the capital. In this way, it will be the tragic scene of the destruction of the Tianwu Kingdom and the fall of the Central Plains.Thinking of these, Lin Yifan suddenly felt a heavier burden on his body.
