If Zheng Sen is given another chance to come back, he will definitely try his best to advise Liu Jian and will never let his brothers fall into the current situation.

But if he gave Ruan Phoenix another chance to come back, he would definitely stop when he met. He would definitely not dare to be too confident that more than 30,000 troops would be able to swallow more than 20,000 Han troops.

It was not a siege or a great opportunity to annihilate. They were just fleeing in a panic by the Han fleet and deceived by the Han army who guarded the hills alone.

That's just an illusion.

The ground was wet and slippery, half was mud and half was blood.

Ruan Phoenix's war horse was tripped by the body of a soldier in the Ruan family. His hooves slipped and mud splashed, almost throwing him off the horse.

Fortunately, the majestic Arab war horse maintained stability in the end, otherwise he might not have been able to escape.

A battle of encirclement and annihilation that he believed was fought for less than half a day, but they rushed for seven or eight consecutive rounds without attacking the mountain. Instead, they suffered heavy casualties in front of the caltrops, wire mesh, trenches, guns and artillery.

Especially the war elephants that he attached great importance to were almost useless. The first time he took the lead in charge, before getting close to the wire mesh, many elephants' hooves were pierced by caltrops, and their speed slowed down. Then they were beaten by the Han army's platoons and cannons, and they fell down and fell into a large area. The rest were all out of control and fled backwards, but they knocked and injured countless cavalry behind them. Many cavalry were even tragically killed by the war elephants.

After the first wave of charge failed, Ruan Phoenix and the generals launched several rounds of charges, but they were more and more weak. After barely breaking through three barbed wire mesh, they were finally stopped in front of the seemingly shallow trench.

But the Han army's muskets were too dense, with lead bombs falling like rain, especially they had hundreds of artillery pieces and fired terrifying bombs. The shells looked like long eyes and were specifically fired into the most densely packed areas of the stormtroopers. In particular, their bombs also had very accurate explosion fuses, which controlled the explosion time very accurately, so accurate that Nguyen Phoenix's Portuguese mercenary consultants were amazed.

Ruan Jun launched eight rounds of attacks.

Then, there was no ninth round charge.

The previous victory on the river surface and the courage to be plucked up with high rewards. Now all have faded away. Ruan Jun finally realized the reality. The seemingly small mountain has more defense than a solid city. They have repelled the army of Zheng in the north again and again, and have also captured the city of Chameng Kingdom in the south again and again. They can even use fire attacks to burn most of the Han fleet that is arrogant into Xianghe, but they cannot do anything to the Han army on this mountain.

When Ruan Phoenix ran in front of the formation again, he held his sword and shouted at the dirt-faced soldiers, "Kill all the Han dogs", but there was no longer a tide of response. After an awkward silence, someone suddenly shouted in the army, "If we can't break the defense of the Han army, we will commit suicide if we attack again!"

Ruan Phoenix wanted to find this guy who was confused about the morale of the army, but before he could find the man, more opposition sounded, and then the high military horns on the hillside sounded, loud and long.

Before the Ruan army could attack for the ninth attack, the Han army finally took the initiative to counterattack.

The sound of horse hooves was mixed with the sound of trumpets, and the sound of hooves became louder and louder.

He fought against the Ruan Army eight times in a row. Zhao Kang did not release the 5,000 cavalrymen who were reserved as a reserve. Ruan Army thought that after his eight attacks, the Han army had only fought to fight back to death and barely defended them. In fact, they had no idea that there were only more than 18,000 people who resisted their eight attacks. The 5,000 Jurchen cavalry units were always holding horses next to the cannon formation to accumulate strength.

They even had time to cook lunch for themselves with the fierce gunfire sounds, with white rice with pickles and canned beef. After the meal, they even cooked milk tea for themselves with milk powder, tea leaves and candied, and then fed feed to their war horses.

I took a nap for the rest of the time and watched the skillful operation of the artillery friendly forces.

Just when these Jurchen cavalry were complaining about the weak and weak attack of the Southern Barbarians, Zhao Kang finally realized that Ruan Army had indeed declined greatly and was weak and weak.

He keenly seized the fighter plane and indeed ordered the cavalry to board the horse and fight back.

The Jurchen cavalrymen who had eaten and drank for a while finally jumped on their horses with satisfaction.

The cavalry chief raised his double-edged long-handled battle axe and shouted loudly: "Long live the emperor!"

Everyone responded loudly.

The five thousand cavalry were divided into three formations and attacked at the same time from three directions. Over the battlefield that had been paved with corpses when Ruan's army attacked eight times, the cavalry formed a wedge-shaped battle formation and rushed out.

They roared swords and fire, and the rolling iron hooves and spears and great swords merged with the fire.

The Jurchen cavalry swooped down from the hillside, and another attack of raising energy, like a fierce tiger descending on the mountain and a hungry tiger pounced on the sheep. Once, the Jurchen cavalry was known as the Eight Banners Power, and the Jurchens were not worth ten thousand, and they were invincible. They once swept the outside of the pass, conquered Mongolia, and even broke the pass several times, and fought under the city of Beijing.

But later they met their fateful opponents and were defeated by the Holy Emperor again and again. In the end, they surrendered to the Han Emperor and conquered the world for the Han Emperor. They began to equip muskets and cannons. Many times, they no longer needed to rush across the battlefield as before. Their enemies could not stop their cannons and fire at the same volley of muskets.

Now, they can finally wield their swords and storm again and make a storm.

At this moment, many Jurchen cavalry suddenly felt extremely excited, as if they had woken up from a dream. This kind of pleasure made them unable to help but roar.

A Jurchen cavalry layed his spear when he almost saw the hair on the face of the southern barbarian.

The flag gun with a triangular red flag on the head of the spear directly pierced the panicked Nanman's chest. The Jurchen Knight roared excitedly and lifted the man away from the ground.

The flag gun could not withstand this force, and the middle of the gun rod was broken.

The knight threw away half of the gun rod in his hand, and then instead of getting his cavalry flintlock musket, he directly pulled out his double-edged battle axe.

The double-edged battle axe made of high-quality stainless steel is just right in weight, but it is extremely sharp.

In this cavalry battle, the knight does not need muskets, he only needs this familiar battle axe. He wants to enjoy the pleasure of the battle axe splitting the bodies of the fleeing southern barbarians.

He quickly locked in another target, which was a Southern Barbarian spearman with a bronze helmet on his head and was running away in panic.

The Jurchen knight grabbed the horse's belly, and the war horse rushed over with understanding. The knight swung his arm, used all his strength to add the inertia of the war horse, and slashed towards the bronze helmet with all his strength.

The impact of the steel double-edged battle axe and the copper helmet made his arms numb, but the paralysis made him feel a familiar feeling of pleasure.

The battle axe did not disappoint him. He directly divided the bronze helmet into two, and even the unlucky guy's head was split open.

"On the front battlefield, two kills, haha, two generous rewards will be included." The Knight thought to himself, with a refreshing expression on his face, and then he didn't even look at the messenger ghost who was pounced on in the mud and continued to charge.

The Jurchen Legion lives on spoils, and the entire legion is like a large company. Every Jurchen warrior is a company shareholder. They grab the spoils through battle, then pay various expenses, convert the income, and finally divide it into everyone. After the war, they will also evaluate military merits and record their achievements. If they have many military merits, their achievements will naturally be rewarded.

However, they are now like the Han army. They no longer cut off their heads, and their military achievements are not entirely based on killing.

A stray bullet hit the knight with a bang. The lead shot hit his arm, and a severe pain came. The knight lowered his body, leaned on the horse's back, then turned his head to look at the shot, and the shoulder armor was knocked down by the lead bullet, and his arm must have been purple. Fortunately, the shoulder armor was not worn, and it was just a small problem. He couldn't help but be very satisfied with his contribution-making steel shoulder armor.

The Jurchen Legion provided armor and weapons, but the ones provided were standard versions, such as infantry had a set of cotton armor and cavalry had a set of leather armor. However, since they were mercenaries, everyone was also responsible for their lives. If they had money, they would buy some armor privately. For example, the leather armor sets and rope armors were sets. If they had money, they could still order some private armor from Jiangnan Manufacturing Company.

All the generals of the Jianzhou Legion have a set of shiny and sturdy Knight plate armor. However, the shiny plate armor is very expensive and is made of forged and die-cast in stainless steel. It is both sturdy and light, but it is never cheap. Ordinary generals will order half-body armor. The half-body armor has strong protection against the upper body, which is also lighter, and of course much cheaper.

However, even half-body armor is a bit luxurious for this knight. Like many companions, he wore silk underwear when fighting, which can prevent arrows and lead bullets, and has some effects. Then there is leather armor on the outside, and a rope armor on the outside. Then they will buy some plate armor parts, such as shoulder guards, wrist guards, leg guards, heart guards, etc. Such loose parts are much cheaper, but they can also provide them with a lot of extra protection.

Just like now, the steel shoulder pads successfully blocked the lead bullet, which made the Knight feel very good that it is indeed produced by Jiangnan Manufacturing Factory, and the quality is trustworthy. When you get the reward after this war, you must buy another breastplate.

The Southern Barbarians also tried to intercept the Jurchen cavalry, but the intercepting cavalry they barely gathered together was too far from the Jurchen cavalry.

The Ruan family's horse army, who had already fought for a long time, had been exhausted and now they were even less morale. As soon as they fought against the Jurchen cavalry, they quickly melted like ice and snow and charcoal fire.

The knight saw his company commander, and the big guy rode his big war horse and jumped past him like the wind.

The company commander was wearing a knight's plate armor. Although this guy was just a company commander, he had killed countless people and made many achievements. If this guy hadn't had a very poor military discipline and often violated battlefield discipline, it would be enough to be promoted to a battalion commander. However, although he could not be promoted, he still had a lot of rewards every time. He bought a set of full-body knight's plate armor that the generals were willing to buy.

Wearing this plate armor, the whole person was like being wrapped in an iron shell, weighing more than 40 kilograms of full-body deck armor, which means that a guy like him would not be too heavy.

He used a weapon, a two-handed sword, the cross sword style of the Yi people was heavy but sharp.

The company commander rode his horse by, just like a death harvester. Wherever his sword passed, his hand broke his head and his shield shattered. Sometimes he even didn't even let go of the enemy's war horses, and sometimes he just cut off the horse's head.

This is a terrifying guy.

With his appearance, the Nan barbarian in front ran faster. The knight secretly complained that the company commander had snatched his chance to make meritorious service, while urging the war horses to speed up their pursuit.

Ruan's army was defeated and fled in all directions.

The mud blocked many Ruan army's escape and was caught up by the Jurchen cavalry. They cut melons and vegetables into pieces, leaving countless corpses.

"Go to Hue!"

Someone is shouting.

So more people are responding.

"Long live the empire, long live the emperor!"

There are still people calling out the Nine-Headed Bird Wuwei. I really don’t know who taught these guys to shout. The Nine-Headed Bird’s might be the only one that can be called out by the Imperial Army, which beat the Nine-Headed Bird. If the Nine-Headed Birds heard it, they might be scolded for making sticks, selling swords and scattering coins.

But everyone was in a bad mood at this time, and they were not willing to stop.

On the hillside position, Zheng Sen and the soldiers in the company sat on the ground, gasping for breath. In the past half day, they actually worked very hard. The barrel was almost red, and everyone fired a bunch of bullets.

"Ma's staff, those Jurchen cavalry are on the top, they are actually going to chase down the city of Hue!"

"Spread coins."

Zheng Sen wiped the sweat from his forehead and looked up. Sure enough, the Jurchen cavalry chased him more and more vigorously, and was already close to the fortress outside Hue City. If they didn't stop, they would rush into the range of the Hue Castle Fort.

But Ruan Army is not having a good time now. More than 30,000 Ruan Army completely disintegrated, and only a small number of people are still gathering together and are desperately escaping to Hue City. Without asking, it is clear that the group of people must be senior generals of Ruan Army, and it is even possible that Ruan Phoenix is ​​inside.

Ruan Jun tried his best to pick, and the Jurchen cavalry were chasing each other desperately. The two soldiers chased each other and were chasing each other with one another.

Zheng Sen couldn't help but lit up his eyes. Ma's stick had a chance.

On the top of the slope not far away, Zhao Kang and other generals also looked at the battlefield with a thousand-mile mirror.

Several Jurchen generals laughed at Zhao Kang with some embarrassment. The subordinates of Saqian had now broken away from the plan they had planned before the battle. They were all going to chase into the city of Hue. Saving the coins. If the Ruan family cannons fired, wouldn't it be over?

"We immediately order them to withdraw their troops."

Zhao Kang shook his head, "I can't retreat anymore."

The Jurchen cavalry who were fighting were so excited that even ten cows could not be brought. They were not the Imperial Army, but a group of Jurchen mercenaries robbing everywhere.

"But it is not necessary to retreat. The defeated soldiers of the Ruan family were tightly bitten by them. Maybe they really have the chance to break into the city in one fell swoop." Zhao Kang also saw the defeated soldiers of the Ruan family who were heavily protected and fled. He must be an important figure in the Ruan family. Unless the city of Hue will not let them enter the city, otherwise, once the city is opened, the Jurchen cavalry will really rush in.

At this moment, I rode from the bottom of the mountain.

"General Zhao, the military order has arrived. Please lead your troops to retreat to the beach immediately."

The generals' faces changed.

Zhao Kang asked, "Whose military order?"

"Military order from the governor."

All the generals and schools looked at Zhao Kang. There was a great opportunity now, and it was unwilling to retreat at this time.

Zhao Kang took a deep breath and said, "You go and rely on the governor. I will not be able to comply with his military orders. Now, I am the highest commander of the battlefield and I am responsible for the entire situation on the battlefield. I think we should not retreat at the moment, but attack."

The messenger was stunned and he was openly disobeying the battlefield?

Yes, but what can he do?

Zhao Kang no longer paid attention to the commander, but whispered to the generals and schools around him, "Everyone, do you dare to follow me to kill down the mountain and attack Hue, and avenge our previous shame and promote our army's power!"

"I hope to follow the general to avenge our previous shame and promote our army's power!" The generals and the school responded in unison.

"Hahaha, okay, I'll play the trumpet, follow my general and enter Hue!" (To be continued.)
Chapter completed!
