Take the arsenal to Da Ming

Chapter 66 The Battle of Huanggang ([-])

"attack……"

The drums of the charge thundered wildly, pointing out the direction for the soldiers in chaos.

Due to the impact of artillery fire, the situation of Zheng's army was already very chaotic, but under the guidance of their respective battle flags, they still roared forward and charged forward with more than a hundred cavalry leading the charge.

Seeing that the enemy was only about a hundred feet away, Tangning didn't want to delay any longer, so she gave an order, "Hit..."

Immediately, there was loud gunfire, and the terrifying tearing sound of MG42 and the crisp sound of 98K were intertwined, weaving bloody death blockades.

The body of the cavalry was torn apart. Even a huge war horse was so fragile in the face of the terrifying tearing force of MG42, and was torn into pieces by the raging bullets.

For a moment, people turned on their backs, blood and flesh flew everywhere.

That death chasm, even at the speed of a war horse, is so far away that it cannot be easily crossed.

The bloody, unsightly corpses of cavalrymen and war horses were almost all piled up in that area, blood flowing like a river.

This scene, like a meat grinder, made the cavalry who were lagging behind look horrified. The courage in their hearts was quickly worn down, and a few cavalry instinctively reined in.

But the cavalry behind them were still charging. The sudden sudden stop naturally caught the cavalry behind them by surprise and bumped into their horses.

Maybe this is not a bad thing. Although the horse collision incident injured both them and the horse, and the scene fell into chaos, it managed to prevent them from directly plunging into the absolute death zone.

Now, it is time for them to make a choice, whether to continue to move forward, or to change course.

One of them pulled the rein and turned the horse's head to the left, and the other two followed immediately. They quickly left the area and fled to the left.

For the deserters on the battlefield, there is naturally a supervising team to deal with them, and they will never be soft-hearted.

Because of this, the main force of the attacking Zheng army did not choose to flee because of a few deserters.

The following infantry, after witnessing the cavalry being destroyed in an extremely bloody way, was terrified in their hearts, but under the command of the commander, they still had to move forward.

The speed of the infantry was much slower than that of the cavalry. Although there were many of them, they still couldn't cross the fire net woven by the death fire with their flesh and blood.

The soldiers fell down screaming, and the bodies of the soldiers were torn apart, as if the corpses were scattered everywhere, and the blood was sprayed on the comrades beside them, watering the fear in their hearts over and over again.

Horrified howls, crazy shouts, heart-piercing curses and life-killing gunshots intertwined, bloody deduction of an endless funeral.

"General, this can't be done, this can't be done, the brothers have suffered too many casualties." A general in command rushed to Zheng Cai, weeping and crying.

Zheng Cai's heart is bleeding, these are all the capital of his Zheng family, and they are being consumed so quickly, these are not things that can be bought with money.

Zheng Cai's eyes were bloodshot, and he roared, "We didn't send troops to attack the south city. It is very likely that the defense there is empty. Send me a surprise soldier to attack the south gate immediately."

Seeing that the general hadn't moved yet, Zheng Cai stared like a gambler who was about to go bankrupt, and shouted, "Go quickly."

Only then did the general sigh in response.

Although she didn't say it out loud, Zheng Cai had already decided in her heart that as long as Huanggang was taken down, none of the people there would be able to live.

Especially that Tangning, he wanted to kill her.

However, the imagination is beautiful. At this moment, a Tang soldier handed over the Tang newspaper with Shi Fu's order.

"General, the enemy's firearms are powerful, and our troops suffered heavy casualties. Mr. Shi has no choice but to retreat. He sent me to inform the general. Please retreat first, and then make a long-term plan..."

Hearing the news, Zheng Cai's eyes were tearing apart, and he gritted his teeth, but Shi Fu ran away without saying hello.

Shi Fu wanted to say hello first, but if he really did that, there might not be many people left in his army.

His order to retreat was also decided in a hurry, and no one would have imagined that this sure-fire battle would be so difficult.

After the retreat order was issued, Shi Fu also sent someone to inform him immediately, but it was still a bit late.

In fact, it didn't take much time on the road, after all, the distance was not very far, and the Tangbao cavalry came on horseback.

However, the firepower of the new army is too fierce. Once engaged in the battle, the reaping of lives is calculated in seconds.

Zheng Cai was speechless, as if he couldn't believe it. He didn't react until his subordinates reminded him, and then ordered sadly: "Get out, get out."

As soon as he finished speaking, he stared again, and said fiercely: "The plan to surprise Nancheng remains unchanged."

It seems that Zheng Cai is still not giving up.

As soon as the retreating bronze bell rang, the soldiers who were charging seemed to be reborn, and the little fighting spirit left immediately dissipated. They turned around without hesitation, and fled backwards crazily.

After driving the opponent to a distance of 600 meters, Tangning gave an order, "Stop shooting and continue the bombardment."

"Boom boom boom..." the GrW34 mortar roared angrily, and did not give up until it was out of range. Tangning didn't let the howitzer go into action again.

As for sending troops to pursue, Tangning had no such plan.

Flying all the way, Zheng Cai, under the protection of a team of personal guards, hid in embarrassment behind a lush soil slope.

Seeing the thriving scene at the beginning of summer, Zheng Cai's heart was full of gloom, as if she had lost most of her vitality.

Even so, he was still looking forward to it in his heart, hoping that the direction of Nancheng would bring him good news.

But it was destined to disappoint him again.

After hearing the dense explosion, he knew it had failed.

However, Zheng Cai's guess was correct. Because he knew that the enemy did not send troops to attack the south, Tang Ning hardly placed any troops in the south, and did not even dig trenches. After all, he had too few troops available.

But this doesn't mean that Tangning doesn't pay attention to the movement in the direction of Nancheng. Nearly one-third of Xiao Wu's scouting team is in this direction.

Until Shi Fu launched an attack and then failed to retreat, the direction of Nancheng remained calm.

Until now, Tangning could calmly arrange things. As soon as Shi Fu had just retreated, he immediately pulled out half of the defense forces from the North City and East City to the South City.

After Tangning's deployment was in place, Zheng Cai hadn't even made the decision to surprise Nancheng.

The surprise soldier he sent next naturally bumped into the defender's hands, and the failure scene was repeated.

However, they also made a little achievement, that is, they were closer to the city gate, but they also successfully tasted a different rain of bullets. The soldiers on the top of the city threw grenades down like they didn't want money.

They couldn't even cross a small ditch. Facing the high walls and tight defenses of the southern city, they were completely desperate.

Ben had already tasted failure in the west city, and this time he suffered such a blow again, and the morale of the army quickly collapsed.

Seeing Mr. Qian who fled back in embarrassment with a shamed face, Zheng Cai turned his head and looked into the distance, not knowing what he was thinking.
