"Bird's hand, ready to release" "Smack, smack, smack, smack" The fire guns fired continuously, and the dense fire beat the coalition cavalry into a sieve, and at a position about one hundred and fifty paces away from the bird guns, the coalition cavalry fell in rows, and for the coalition cavalry, this distance became an insurmountable line of life and death, and in addition to the fire guns, there were bows and crossbows and bed crossbows that kept being thrown, causing great casualties to the coalition cavalry.
Looking at the allied cavalry that kept charging, Li Bingchang, the king of Jin, decisively ordered: "Order, the cavalry on both wings will attack separately and surround the enemy army to this king, and none of them can run." ” With the issuance of Li Bingchang's military order, Li Hao and Liang Yongneng, the king of Yue, led the troops from the two wings respectively, to the rear of the coalition army to kill, although the coalition army has an advantage in the force, but it is not the opponent of the Xia army at all, the two armies fought for two hours and the two armies lost nearly 100,000 people, most of which are the Xia army's 30 cannons and more than 100 return guns, the return artillery threw out are more than 50 catties of explosives and some of more than 100 catties of explosives bags, its power is very huge, the entire killing radius has three or four zhang.
The huge losses did not hurt the Xia army in the slightest, so that all the allied troops Qi Glacier had a deep fear, and the king of Khorezm, Galga, who was commanding in the rear, had been completely dumbfounded, and the crown prince said to Galga: "Father, hurry up and retreat, and if you don't withdraw, it will be too late." ” "Yes, evacuate; The herald ordered the army to withdraw.
Galgar came to her senses and ordered decisively.
Under the protection of thousands of guards, the battlefield where the king of Khorezm, Galga, and the crown prince Si Rahei immediately evacuated, leaving more than 200,000 coalition soldiers to run, even the commander ran away, and the coalition army directly scattered birds and beasts and fled, but they could not escape, and the Xia cavalry had formed a huge encirclement on the periphery, surrounding the entire coalition army.
Li Bingchang, the king of Jin, looked at the encircled coalition cavalry and said, "Shout, tell them to surrender immediately, otherwise they will be killed." ” "Dismount immediately and surrender, or you will be killed" The allied cavalry had lost their fighting spirit, and under the persuasion of the surrounding voices, they dismounted and knelt on the ground one after another and surrendered, and the Xia cavalry immediately took all the prisoners into custody; Khorezm's 350,000 allied forces lasted only three hours before they were wiped out; Taking advantage of the fact that it was not yet dark, Li Bingchang commanded an army of 100,000 to launch an attack on Koti City.
At this time, the city of Curti was already an unguarded city, and Galgar and Sirahei did not even return to the city, and walked around the city directly; The Xia army blew open the city gate with explosives bags, and 100,000 Xia troops swarmed in and carried out a massacre of the entire city of Koti, killing all the children and the old and weak, leaving only the young and the women; In this battle, the Xia army can be said to have won a complete victory, but the losses were very small, but the consumption of gunpowder was huge; At the same time, it also made Li Bingchang realize the huge power of firearms, only 30 artillery pieces and 10,000 bird guns have such results, if only more The reason for the defeat of the coalition forces was actually largely due to the huge explosion of gunpowder, which seemed incomprehensible to them, this was Allah's punishment for them, in their eyes only the gods had this ability, and now that the Xia army had this ability, it was obvious that the gods had sent them to punish themselves.
Late at night, in the old royal palace of Khorezm in the city of Kirti.
Li Hao, the king of Yue, reported to Li Bingchang, the king of Jin: "Big brother, we can make a fortune this time, the entire city of Koti is under our control, the 350,000 army of Khorezm has been completely annihilated by us, and the entire Khorezm has no troops that can stop us." ” Li Bingchang just nodded and didn't speak; Li Hao looked at Li Bingchang with a frown and asked, "Big brother, what are you thinking?"
"I'm wondering how Khorezm has an army of 350,000 people, and you should be able to see that there are at least 100,000 of them, and they wear and carry all kinds of weapons, which don't look like a regular army at all."
Li Bingchang said.
"We've beaten them like birds, so what do you care about them," Li Hao said after sitting down.
Li Bingchang continued to say to Li Hao: "Although we have wiped out nearly 400,000 troops in Khorezm, we can't take it lightly, Khorezm has a population of 5 million, and it can arm at least 500,000 troops, and they are a country that combines agriculture and nomadism, so they should be able to gather more troops, so we can't relax our vigilance." ” "It's big brother."
Li Hao, the king of Yue, said: "But you don't have to be careful, big brother, we are all the elite of Khorezm, and the rest is a group of rabble, so there is nothing to worry about." ” "You forgot what I just said."
Li Bingchang said sternly: "It's still right what my father said, we must attach importance to the enemy strategically and despise the enemy tactically." ” "Big brother, what should we do next, do you want to march towards Yulongjie Chicheng," Li Hao continued to ask.
"Don't be in a hurry, even the counter-war has exhausted the brothers, first rest for ten days to take down the other small cities around, sweep all the Khorezm tribes within three hundred miles around, place all the prisoners we have captured, and then continue to march west."
Li Bingchang thought about it for a while and said.
"Yes, my brother is commanded" The Xia army captured 100,000 young men and 50,000 qualified women from the entire Curti City, and these 100,000 young men were imprisoned with the more than 200,000 prisoners of war.
In Wuli Pavilion outside the southern city, Xia Jun specially set up a row of tents, and a group of military doctors wearing white coats and holding small scimitars waited there; All the prisoners of war entered the tent in turn, and were immediately knocked unconscious as soon as they entered; Then they were carried to a plank, and the medic ripped off their pants without any nonsense, and went at the little brother with a knife; The sharp pain from the lower body would instantly wake the captive and let out a terrible cry of "ahh Then sprinkled some hemostatic powder and was carried out, as for the little brother who was cut off, he was directly thrown into the wooden barrel on the side, more than 30 people and 10,000 prisoners, to let these more than 1,000 military doctors cut is tired and disgusting to death, so at first it was a military doctor, and then it was directly replaced by a Xia soldier soldier, that is, a matter of falling with a knife.
It took three days for 300,000 prisoners of war to be cut, but less than a fifth of them survived; This result greatly surprised Li Bingchang, after all, the medical technology in this era was very backward, and Xia Jun was a very rough surgical method, and many prisoners died due to infection; It is already very lucky to be able to survive, these people are very afraid of Xia Jun, and gradually transformed into servility, and became Li Bingchang's accomplice in dealing with prisoners of war in the future, this incident also taught Li Bingchang a lesson, the way to cut the little brother is not advisable.
The first one, there are votes to vote for it:
