Chapter 426: Encounter
The soldiers of the Great Khanate were also well trained. When Wanyan Aguda conveyed the order, two teams of infantry appeared in front of him, exploring forward with alertness. Chen Xiuping was not used to this group of people, so he directly ordered that when they arrived at the anti-tank cone, they would shoot arrows directly.
Yes, archery, as for artillery, Chen Xiuping didn't want to use it now. He had to wait until the other party's artillery bombarded and discovered the other party's artillery camp before bombing.
As the arrow rain flew out of the trench, none of the two infantry teams were spared and all died. Wanyan Aguda, who was behind, saw his soldiers die like this, and was a little impatient. After checking the place where the arrow rain appeared, he must have found the trench. He directly suggested to Yelu Yangcheng: "Blast with your cannon. They undoubtedly want to delay time. The longer they drag it, the more unfavorable it is for us."
Yelu Yangcheng did not agree with Wanyan Aguda's suggestion, but asked to continue to send soldiers to explore another place.
"This, I know I'm going to die, why should I send troops?"
"Send troops quickly and know the concentration point of firepower on the opposite side. How precious this cannon is. If you say you want to use it."
So the second team continued to explore. After several repetitions, Yelu Yangcheng felt that it was almost done, so he finally sent a team of soldiers to explore again. Chen Xiuping, who was in the trench, also wondered why the soldiers on the other side had let the soldiers die for nothing. He thought about it. The positions of the soldiers coming each time were different. He seemed to feel something, and hurriedly ordered that the soldiers who were shooting arrows there quickly hid in the shelter pit of the trench after shooting arrows.
The result was as Chen Xiuping expected. As soon as the arrows were shot out, a roar came from behind the enemy. It was the enemy who used artillery. The enemy relied on several explorations to test the approximate position of the archers on their side.
After the bombing, soil splashed everywhere. Through the estimate of the opponent's artillery, the opponent's artillery camp had already appeared. At this time, Chen Xiuping did not hide it and directly ordered the artillery camp to start fighting back. Although it was the simplest cannon, the combat modes of both sides had become somewhat modern.
The artillery camp of the Great Liao Kingdom obviously did not expect that the other party would have such long-range artillery. It was caught off guard. The bombardment of hundreds of artillery directly destroyed the artillery camp. Yelu Yangcheng hurriedly responded and ordered the artillery to be transported, which was useless. In the first round of the confrontation, Chen Xiuping was slightly better and destroyed the artillery that the other party relied on.
Since the other party also had artillery, Yelu Yangcheng had no choice but to order a retreat. Wanyan Agu, who was standing aside, couldn't understand why he wanted to retreat, and asked: "Now the other party's artillery has been used. Can't we just rush over directly by ordering a charge at this moment?"
"You go and rush. The opponent's cannon is obviously far away from us. Once you discover the camp, do you think their cannons can hit you?"
Yelu Yangcheng was a little irritated. The disadvantage of the united army had appeared more than once, that was the issue of orders. The order he issued had to pass through Wanyan Aguda to the Great Khanate army. This would seriously affect the combat plan. After the explanation, Yelu Yangcheng did not continue to speak, but retreated for a distance according to the estimated order.
