Chapter 435: A Short Life
Wang Ergou and his subordinates, who were still in the enemy formation, had resisted the first round of charge of the enemy cavalry with their firm determination. The subordinates on the side advised: "Sir, the several charge teams next to them have retreated, so let's retreat too."
"If you don't retreat, continue to hold on. If you don't hear the trumpet of the marshal's retreat, we must hold on, brothers, hold on."
As he spoke, the horn of the attack sounded again from behind. Wang Ergou immediately cooperated and said, "Brothers are the horn of the marshal's attack, let's continue."
After the words came, the second round of charge of the enemy cavalry came, and this time it came even more violently. The firmness in Wang Ergou's eyes was still not enough. Facing the fierce enemy cavalry, he continued to raise the spear in his hand.
During the first charge, they lost nearly half of their comrades. This time, I don’t know if the death comes to me. Wang Ergou is not a fool. Although he knows to stick to it, they can move. With the charge of the opponent’s cavalry, they have already penetrated into the hinterland of the enemy. Thanks to the charge of the enemy’s cavalry, the opponent’s army began to collapse.
Wang Ergou looked from a distance and believed that he had read it correctly. The point ahead was the enemy's artillery camp, and they were retreating.
"Hold on, brothers, ahead of you is the enemy's artillery camp, rush in."
The artillery camp of the Great Liao Kingdom obviously did not expect that the enemy army would charge here, and immediately drew their swords to prepare for counterattack. This also gave Wang Ergou a chance to take advantage of the chaos. With his subordinates' fighting, Wang Ergou approached the enemy's artillery. He directly picked up the cannon next to him and threw all the ammunition barrels into it.
With the burst of gunpowder, the artillery camp of the Great Liao Kingdom was discovered. Although Wang Ergou ran very fast, the practice of directly igniting the gunpowder undoubtedly did not give him a chance to escape. He was blown up. Looking at one of his lost arm and one leg, Wang Ergou didn't know whether he should regret it. Seeing his subordinates still fighting, Wang Ergou smiled, a smug smiled, a smug smiled. They were warriors. They gave everything they had for the country and the family. He was a rough man. He didn't know what to say to his subordinates at this moment, so he held his subordinate's hand tightly with his other arm.
The sudden sound of artillery from the enemy made Chen Xiuping know where the enemy's artillery camp was, and immediately ordered the artillery camp in the rear to bombard the opponent.
This battle was full of surprises and blood. With the bombardment of artillery, the opponent's cavalry formation was truly chaotic, and the war seemed to have a one-sided trend. Yelu Yangcheng saw his retreating artillery camp being bombarded by the enemy. After five years of hard work, he was destroyed here. This is a sign of his mood.
Holding back the grief and anger in his heart, Yelu Yangcheng immediately ordered a retreat, and an accident that belonged to them also happened. Suddenly, the sound of horse hooves came from behind. The leader was Wanyan Aguda. Wanyan Aguda, who disappeared in front of the formation, came back and brought the cavalry of the Khanate.
He ordered a charge directly, because the chaos on the left wing also led to this distance becoming a vacuum zone. The Great Khanate cavalry led by Wanyan Aguda rushed directly into the battlefield from the rear.
Seeing the reinforcements from the other side, Chen Xiuping felt that he had made enough money. After giving this order to retreat, the horn of retreat finally rang. Wang Ergou heard the horn in confusion and murmured: "The Marshal still remembers us, he asked us to retreat."
