Chapter 989: Centrifugal

"The Beidi are already showing signs of defeat, and the war in Lingwu County is about to end. Read М"

On the city wall, Bai Shang saw that the Beidi had sent out a large number of cavalry, and immediately made a judgment.

Huo An nodded, he agreed with Bai Shang's judgment.

Any general with a clear mind would not deploy such a dense force in a narrow battlefield after seeing the machine gun.

But Beidi did it.

And they also let a large number of cavalry walk on the ice, which was simply seeking death.

It just so happened that this road of troops was led by Mule Hongzhen.

Without Mule Hongzhen's consent, Beidi would not take such an offensive.

Or, this is simply a gamble made by Mule Hongzhen under hysteria.

But this gamble, they are doomed to fail.

This Beidi Khan has obviously lost his mind.

"In this case, let's make them completely desperate." Huo An sneered.

Bai Shang nodded, "Let the artillery treat them well and let them take a cold shower."

His order was issued.

Soon, the artillerymen aimed their guns at the Beidi cavalry on both sides.

There were fewer artillery pieces aimed at the east, and more artillery pieces aimed at the west.

"Boom boom boom..." After calibration, shells flew out of the muzzles, drew a perfect arc and landed on the surface of the Jin River.

The shells fell into the cavalry group, and the conical shells embedded in the ice surface. Then, with a "bang", the bombs exploded, blowing away a large piece of ice.

The nearby Beidi cavalry were first knocked down by the shock wave of the explosion, and then fell into the turbulent river.

The soldiers following these cavalry hurriedly reined in their horses, but it was too late.

They were pushed forward by the cavalry behind them and fell into the ice hole.

Under the continuous bombardment of the artillery, the ice surface of the Jin River quickly turned into a hornet's nest, with large holes everywhere, and there were few places where horses could pass.

A large number of Beidi cavalry could only stay on the river surface and could not move forward.

The cavalry gathered together were even more live targets for the artillery.

Shells fell among them, and in densely packed areas, a large number of cavalrymen were often killed.

In this situation, the Beidi cavalrymen could not help but cry out to heaven and earth.

Some cavalrymen could only abandon their horses and swim to the shore.

Some cavalrymen came to the shore along the remaining narrow ice surface, squeezed together with the cavalrymen on land, and continued to charge.

This made the cavalry attacking on land appear particularly dense.

"Da Da Da..."

The Beidi cavalry came again, and the machine gun team naturally noticed it.

They immediately pointed their guns at the cavalrymen rushing over and pulled the trigger.

Fifteen machine guns spit out flames, and the cavalrymen in dense formations had nowhere to hide, and it seemed that they could hit the enemy without firing a bullet.

In an instant, the front row of Beidi cavalrymen fell, and then the cavalrymen in the second and third rows fell one after another.

The speed of the machine guns' continuous firing made the Beidi cavalrymen unable to react at all.

As more and more cavalrymen fell, the bodies gradually piled up, which hindered the cavalrymen's actions.

They could only bypass the corpses, or ride their horses directly on the pile of corpses to continue moving forward.

But when climbing the slope, their movements slowed down again, and they became the dead souls under the machine gun bullets again.

While the machine gunners were shooting at the cavalry, the infantry were not idle.

They continued to advance along the Beidi trench and had advanced about a thousand meters.

Because the Beidi placed the elite soldiers using rifles in the front trench.

After these Beidi soldiers were eliminated, their offensive became more and more smooth.

Now they can free up their hands to support the flank.

Therefore, the machine gunners are not fighting alone.

Many soldiers on the west edge of the trench climbed up the trench and fired in a kneeling position, and the Beidi cavalry suddenly suffered a large increase in casualties.

Facing the fierce firepower of the Dasong army.

The charging Beidi cavalry went from being hot-headed when they rushed out of the camp, to having their backs numb from the bombardment, and finally facing the machine guns, they began to fear.

Especially when they saw the piled up corpses, blood flowed from below like a stream.

Some cavalrymen stopped charging recklessly and stopped where they were.

They were making a decision, a difficult one.

Charging meant death, and running away meant death.

But they didn't want to die here like a wild dog.

Finally, facing extreme fear, some cavalrymen decided to flee.

They wanted to return to their pastures, and they would rather die in their hometown.

As some people fled, more and more Beidi cavalrymen were shaken, and they followed the deserters.

This time they did not return to the camp, but crossed the Jin River, which had not been bombarded, and headed to the grassland in the north.

Bai Shang and Huo An noticed this, looked at each other, and nodded.

They were confident of victory!

In the Beidi camp, Mulehong looked at the Beidi cavalrymen who fled to the grassland in disbelief.

Since he led the troops to fight, there has never been a large-scale escape of cavalrymen.

Especially not returning to the camp, but returning directly to the grassland.

This means that these cavalrymen are no longer prepared to obey his orders and have chosen to betray him.

He was not afraid when the attack was frustrated, nor was he afraid when the Beidi cavalry was defeated by the Dasong cavalry.

But at this moment, he was afraid.

Because the morale of his soldiers was so low that it was on the verge of collapse.

"Father Khan, Colonel Negov is right, we must retreat." Ulanba also noticed this and could not help but persuade him courageously.

Seeing that Mulehongzhen didn't say anything, he said it more bluntly: "Our warriors are now sending themselves to death. Let them return to their homes. I believe they are more willing to sacrifice their lives for their homes."

Mulehongzhen slowly closed his eyes, opened them again, and looked at the front battlefield.

After the collapse of the cavalry on both wings, the Beidi soldiers in the trenches seemed to be affected and also showed signs of collapse.

They abandoned their trenches at a faster speed.

"Retreat!" Mulehongzhen finally despaired.

Today's battle lasted from morning to afternoon.

Under the counterattack of the Dasong army, both the infantry and the cavalry suffered heavy losses.

I am afraid that their remaining troops are less than 300,000.

Such troops cannot break through Lingwu County anyway.

"Woo woo woo..." Mulehongzhen's order was just issued.

The trumpeter beside him immediately blew the retreat horn.

The low horn sounded, and the Beidi soldiers in the trenches retreated northward from the trenches like rabbits.

At the same time, a large number of cavalrymen gathered in the camp to escort Mule Hongzhen to the grassland.

"Since you don't want to leave your lives here, then keep your lives to protect your pastures!" Mule Hongzhen looked back at Lingwu County, heartbroken.

Like every time he went south, he failed again.

And he lost more miserably than any other time he went south.

Now, he only hopes that the Western Land Allied Forces can break through in the south.

Otherwise, he can't imagine the fate of the Beidi people next.

At that time, the King of Yan will definitely drive them away from the pastures one by one, right?
