Iron Dynasty

With the roar of artillery fire, Lu Fei took a telescope to observe the situation in Huaizhou City.

At this time, Luo Hong went back on his horse and dismounted. He said to Lu Fei: "General, Huaizhou City has now been breached by us in all four walls. Now that none of the wealthy families in the city can escape, do you order the soldiers to attack the city? "

Lu Fei nodded. Huaizhou City is in the hinterland. Like Cangzhou and Laizhou cities, there are very few local defenders. Defeating Pengzhou Army this time has already defeated King Wei's army.

According to the intelligence provided by the secret guards, there were originally only 5,000 defenders in Huaizhou City, but after Pengzhou City was defeated, King Wei urgently recruited soldiers from the local area and allocated 30,000 people to Huaizhou for support, which was very hasty.

In his opinion, these improvised soldiers are not as good as the Pengzhou Army.

"Retreat the soldiers from the south gate." Lu Fei said after a moment of thought.

Luo Hong was surprised and said: "General, this is the opportunity to wipe out the Huaizhou army, why should we withdraw?"

Lu Fei has read many military books and war examples at Bowen Academy these days. He said to Luo Hong: "Pengzhou City is lost, Huaizhou generals must be afraid of them. After all, we can easily capture Pengzhou City, and Huaizhou City is not Besides, the army supporting Huaizhou this time was transferred from other states and counties. They had no faith in guarding Huaizhou. If we were to besiege from all sides, they would even jump over the wall and fight to the death with us, but they left a way out for them. , They will inevitably fall apart."

Luo Hong suddenly realized that he was ashamed. He was very confident after arriving in Qingzhou, but after contacting these Qingzhou generals, he felt more ashamed.

Not to mention that these generals are very familiar with the use of firearms, even if they are very proficient in the art of war, this is very different from the generals in the other armies of the Dayu Kingdom.

"The general understands. Your Royal Highness wants us to take Huaizhou City as soon as possible, so we don't have to struggle with the defenders in the city." Luo Hong said.

"Exactly, but the general was not going to let them go. After the army from the south was withdrawn, he immediately set up an ambush along the official road to the south. In addition, let Baimu cooperate with you and annihilate this reinforcement army. We want to let King Wei be relieved. ."

"Yes, General."

Luo Hong was still a little unconvinced with Lu Fei at first. After all, he came from the Forbidden Army, and Lu Fei was purely a wild way. Now he really realized that Lu Fei still had some ability.

Watching Luo Hong leave, Lu Fei re-observed the defenders on the city wall. Under the shelling of the Southern Expeditionary Army, the gates on all sides have been bombed down. In front of the artillery, the gates on the city wall are no different from those on paper .

After the city gate was blasted open, the Huaizhou army was in chaos. Now there was no decent resistance on the city wall, and Lu Fei fell into contemplation in the face of this scene.

Whether it was Pengzhou City or Huaizhou City, these two battles made him understand that the other vassals now seem to be fangs and claws, but they are actually just puffiness.

Moreover, in the face of firearms, these armies that are still in the cold weapon era do not have enough coping methods.

After the Huaizhou battle, he must send a letter to Xiao Ming explaining the current situation, so that he can understand the real situation of the battle, so that Xiao Ming can correctly judge the current situation.

As Lu Fei expected, when Luo Hongcong withdrew the soldiers from the southern city gate, the resistance on the city wall weakened again.

At this time, he gave the order to charge.

The sound of the Charge horn sounded, and soldiers of the Southern Expeditionary Army attacked the city from the north, east, and west gates like hungry wolves. For a time, gunfire burst into the city.

The Huaizhou city has long been chaotic. Under the shelling of the Southern Army, the bodies of the Huaizhou army are everywhere near the city wall.

As soon as the Southern Expeditionary Army entered the city, they immediately occupied the city wall near the tower. Then the soldiers turned the artillery on the city wall and blasted them at the city's army.

At the same time, the mortars were also mounted on the city wall. At this time, the Southern Expeditionary Army no longer fired lime bombs, but replaced them with another kind of shells. The shells were filled with marbles instead of lime.

When the shells explode, the marbles in the shells will splash out to form a range of damage, but although the effects are different, the principles of the two are the same. This is the most primitive flowering shell.

The only disadvantage is that time control is difficult and precise explosions cannot be achieved, but even so, it is enough to intimidate the enemy.

Moreover, these artillery shells have just been sent and have not been used yet. Luo Xin specially let the artillery be used in this war.

"boom……"

There was a muffled sound from the mortar on the city wall, and the shell with the cork in the front fell into the resisting Huaizhou army.

Like lime bombs, this kind of shells also need to be cut to determine the time. When the shells fall into the Huaizhou Army, the shells only hit one person and then fell to the ground.

The surrounding Huaizhou Army was taken aback by the shell, but they didn't care when they saw it fell on the ground, but at this moment, the shells on the ground exploded with a "boom".

"what……"

A burst of white smoke and flames rose from the crowd, and accompanied by a scream, the Huaizhou army around the shell fell, and many soldiers screamed while covering the wounds hit by the marbles.

This scene scared the other Huaizhou soldiers, but more shells fell into the crowd.

In the face of heavy casualties, the Huai army organized by the powerful Huaizhou army at this moment completely lost their intent to fight and began to flee.

"There is no enemy at the South City Gate!"

At this time, I didn't know who shouted, and the Huaizhou army who heard the news immediately retreated to the South City Gate.

At this time, the Southern Expeditionary Army had completely controlled the towers on the north, east, and west walls. The soldiers who entered the city drove the Wei king army southward like ducks.

On the official road to the south gate of Huaizhou City, Luo Hong and Bai Mu lay in ambush twenty miles outside the city. There is a forest here to ambush soldiers.

At this moment, they have been waiting here for two hours. They launched an offensive in the morning, and now it is already in the afternoon ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ while they are a little irritable when Luo Hong is waiting. At this time, the scouts come to report: "Master Lieutenant, The disintegrated enemy army has come to this side!"

Luo Hong and Bai Mu glanced at each other and nodded.

This time they not only want to take down Huaizhou City, but also the soldiers and horses to eliminate King Wei to the maximum.

It was like a falcon waiting for its prey, and soon, the team of the wealthy family appeared in Luo Hong and Bai Mu's vision, mixed with the defeated soldiers.

The defeat in the war meant that the army lost its command and organization. Such a headless fly-like team could not organize a counterattack at all. Because of this, following the defeated soldiers through the ages has always suffered small losses and great gains.

"attack!"

Seeing that the rout was getting closer and closer, Luo Hong suddenly shouted. At this time, there were only five thousand Musketeers in his hand, but to him, no matter how many routs were, it was nothing but loose sand.

Compared with his Musketeers, Bai Mu's cavalry was more flexible, leading three thousand cavalry, Bai Mu rushed out first.
