In the roar of gunfire, Lufei was watching the situation of huaizhou city with a telescope.
At this time, Luo hongzongma came back and dismounted. He said to Lu Fei, "general, we have broken all the four walls of huaizhou city. Now none of the powerful families in the city can run away. Do you want to order the soldiers to attack the city now?"
Lu Fei nodded. Huaizhou city is in the hinterland. Like Cangzhou and Laizhou, there are few local garrisons. The defeat of Pengzhou army has defeated the army of Wei king.
According to the information provided by the secret guards, the garrison of huaizhou city was only 5000 people, but after the capture of Pengzhou City, the king of Wei urgently recruited soldiers from the local area and sent another 30000 people to huaizhou for support, which was very hasty.
In his opinion, these temporary soldiers are not as good as Pengzhou army.
"Withdraw the soldiers from the south gate." Thought for a moment, Luffy said.
Luo Hong surprised: "general, this is the opportunity to annihilate the huaizhou army. Why should we withdraw?"
Lu Fei has read a lot of military books and war examples in Bowen college these days. He said to Luo Hong, "when Pengzhou City is lost, huaizhou generals must be afraid. After all, we can easily capture Pengzhou City, and huaizhou city is no longer a word. Moreover, the troops supporting huaizhou are transferred from other states and counties. They don't have enough faith in guarding huaizhou In the face of a siege, they will jump over the wall and fight us to death, but if they are left with a way to live, they will surely fall apart. "
Luo Hong suddenly realized that he was ashamed. Originally, he was very confident after he arrived in Qingzhou, but after contacting these generals, he felt more and more ashamed.
Although these generals are familiar with the use of firearms, they are also proficient in the art of war, which is very different from other generals in the army of Dayu.
"The end will understand, your highness let us take huaizhou city as soon as possible, so there is no need to entangle with the garrison in the city." Said Luo Hong.
"Yes, but the general was not prepared to let them go. After the troops in the South were withdrawn, they immediately set up an ambush along the official road in the south. In addition, let Baimu cooperate with you. You must annihilate this reinforcements. We have to make the king of Wei unable to breathe."
"Yes, general."
Luo Hong was still a little unconvinced with Lu Fei at the beginning. After all, he came from the forbidden army, and Lu Fei was just a wild road. Now he really realizes that Lu Fei has some skills.
Seeing Luo Hong leave, Lu Fei re observes the garrison on the city wall. Under the artillery attack of the southern expedition, all the city gates are collapsed. In front of the artillery, the city gates of the city wall are no different from those of paper.
After the gate was opened, huaizhou army was in chaos. Now there was no decent resistance on the wall. Facing this scene, Lufei was lost in thought.
Whether it is Pengzhou City or huaizhou City, these two battles let him understand that other vassal kings are just puffy.
Moreover, in the face of the armed forces with firearms, there are not enough ways to deal with these troops who are still in the cold weapon era.
After the war of huaizhou, he must send a letter to Xiao Ming to explain the current situation, so that he can understand the real fighting situation, so that Xiao Ming can correctly judge the current situation.
As Lu Fei expected, when Luo Hong withdrew the soldiers from the south gate, the resistance on the wall weakened again.
At this time, he gave the order to charge.
The sound of the charge sounded, and the soldiers of the southern expedition, like hungry wolves, stormed into the city from the three gates of North, East and West. For a moment, there was a loud gunfire in the city.
The city of huaizhou has been in chaos for a long time now. Under the shelling of the southern expedition, the bodies of the huaizhou army are everywhere near the city wall.
As soon as the southern army entered the city, they immediately occupied the city wall near the city tower, and then the soldiers turned the artillery on the city wall to bombard the army in the city.
At the same time, the mortar was also put on the wall. At this time, the Southern Army no longer fired lime bombs, but replaced them with another kind of shells, which were filled with bullets instead of lime.
When the shell explodes, the marbles in the shell will splash out, forming a range of damage. However, although the functions are different, the principles of the two are the same. This is the most primitive flowering bomb.
The only drawback is that it is difficult to control the time and can not achieve accurate explosion, but even so, it is enough to intimidate the enemy.
Moreover, these shells have just been delivered and have not been used. Luo Xin specially asked the artillery to use them in this war.
"Boom..."
The mortar on the wall made a dull sound, and the cannonball with wooden plug in the front fell into the resisting huaizhou army.
Like the lime bomb, this kind of shell also needs to cut the fire rope to judge the time. When the shell falls into the huaizhou army, it only hits one person and then falls to the ground.
The surrounding huaizhou army was startled by the shell, but they didn't think much of it when they saw that it was still on the ground. But just then, the shell on the ground exploded.
"Ah..."
A burst of white smoke and fire in the crowd, accompanied by a scream, the huaizhou army around the shells fell, many soldiers covered the wounds hit by marbles screamed.
This scene made other huaizhou soldiers look pale, but then more shells fell into the dense crowd.In the face of heavy casualties, at this moment, the Huai army, which was organized by the powerful families of huaizhou army, completely lost its fighting spirit and began to flee one after another.
"There is no enemy at the south gate!"
At this time, I don't know who yelled, and the huaizhou army who heard the news immediately retreated to the south gate.
At this time, the southern army had completely controlled the city walls in the north, East and West, and the soldiers who entered the city were like driving ducks to drive the Wei army to the south.
Huaizhou City South Gate official road, Luohong and Baimu ambush 20 miles outside the city, here is a forest convenient for ambush.
At this time, they have been waiting here for two hours, they launched an attack from the morning, and now it is afternoon.
While they were waiting for Luo Hong, the scouts reported: "Captain, the scattered enemy troops are coming to this side!"
Luo Hong and Bai Mu looked at each other and nodded.
This time, they not only want to take huaizhou City, but also try their best to eliminate the army of the king of Wei.
Like a falcon waiting for its prey, soon, with the rout troops, the family members of the haos appeared in the vision of Luo Hong and Bai Mu.
A rout in a war means that the army has lost its command and organization, and such a headless and fly like team can not organize a counterattack at all. Because of this, it has been a small loss and a big gain to pursue a rout since ancient times.
"Attack
Seeing the rout getting closer and closer, Luo Hong suddenly cried out, at this time, he had only 5000 riflemen in his hand, but for him, no matter how many rout soldiers there were, they were nothing more than scattered sand.
Compared with his Musketeers, Bai Mu's cavalry was more flexible. He led 3000 cavalry, and Bai Mu rushed out first.
