Waaaaah...
Waaaaah...
The train sounded its whistle again.
Buzzes of steam shot out to both sides.
The train was getting closer and closer to the fleeing cavalry.
These fleeing cavalrymen had no idea that misfortune was about to befall them.
When the train came within 30 meters of the fleeing cavalry.
Jiang Tian decisively ordered the firing.
A series of loud explosions rang out.
The cannons spewed out strings of iron nails.
These iron nails charged at the routed cavalry with unimaginable speed.
Where the iron nails went.
These cavalrymen, along with their horses, were blown to pieces, their flesh and blood flying everywhere.
The scene was horrific.
The shell only travels in a line when it's fired.
Directly in front of the cannon muzzle, the shell will create a trail of damage several hundred meters long.
But iron nails are completely different.
When an iron nail is sprayed out, it hits one side.
The men and horses that were blown down by the iron nails were all blasted into honeycomb briquettes.
The ground was littered with the corpses and severed limbs of centaurs.
The warhorses lay on the ground, groaning incessantly.
The screams were incessant, echoing through the sky.
Under the two rounds of bombardment, Chen Youliang's defeated soldiers all rolled over, dismounted, and knelt down with a thud.
They wanted to run, but they couldn't.
By the time they launched their charge, their warhorses were already nearly exhausted.
Even if they were to break through now, their warhorses would be exhausted and unable to carry them at full speed.
"Stop hitting him."
"We just want to surrender."
"Hero, please spare us!"
"I touched my body and found it covered in blood from the stab wounds."
"We have never fought a battle like this before. We are no match for them at all."
"The further we charge forward, the more gruesome our deaths will be."
More and more cavalrymen knelt on the ground.
Nobody wants to die.
Seeing the blood-soaked corpses and severed limbs scattered everywhere, Chen Youliang's cavalry completely lost their composure.
When the cavalry inside the city charged out.
Chen Youliang's troops were already kneeling on the ground.
The air was filled with the pungent smell of blood.
These cavalrymen still wanted to make a name for themselves, but the enemy had already surrendered.
Everyone was furious.
"Take up your weapons. No surrendering."
"Come on, let's keep fighting and let me kill to my heart's content."
"You guys are all cowards, get up now."
Thousands of cavalrymen surrounded the scene, making it impossible to pass through.
No one dared to fight any longer; they knew that if they continued, they would surely die.
Chen Youliang's troops kowtowed repeatedly, pleading, "Spare us! We'll never dare to do it again!"
"We just want to surrender now."
"We'll do anything as long as you don't kill us."
Seeing the blood-soaked battlefield, Jiang Tian waved his hand and said, "Clean up the battlefield and bring all the surrendered soldiers back."
"Take all of Chen Youliang's warhorses back as well. Chen Youliang, that kid is really rich and powerful."
They sent 100,000 cavalrymen at once.
It's estimated that Chen Youliang has suffered a huge loss this time.
Upon hearing this, everyone burst into laughter.
At this moment, the nearby residents rushed over.
These people were armed with sickles, carrying poles, sticks, and machetes...
“Kill these beasts; they are all Chen Youliang’s men.”
“These beasts burned, killed, and looted in the city, committing all sorts of atrocities.”
"My lord, they intend to make a comeback this time."
"My lord, if it weren't for you guarding this place, the consequences would have been unimaginable."
Seeing the wounded soldiers lying on the ground, the people's anger was instantly ignited.
They all knew what kind of beasts Chen Youliang's men were.
"Li Cunxiao, Xiang Yu, take your men and seize their warhorses and weapons." As for Chen Youliang's cavalry, let them fend for themselves.
The surrounding area was teeming with civilians, and their overwhelming anger was not so easily extinguished.
Since they have done something heinous, let them bear the wrath of the people.
When the people in the city heard that Chen Youliang's army had been routed, they all rushed out of the city.
When Chen Youliang's troops were in the city, they committed many heinous crimes, and their numerous offenses are too numerous to recount.
Xiang Yu: "Yes..."
Xiang Yu jumped off the train and quickly led his army to charge directly at the rebels.
"Don't be polite with them, just take all their weapons and equipment."
"promise……"
Outside the city, cavalrymen filled the hills and fields, but they had lost their will to fight.
Fewer than three thousand cavalrymen were killed by the breech-loading cannons.
More than 20,000 cavalrymen were taken away by Chen Youliang.
The remaining cavalrymen simply stayed where they were, letting people do whatever they wanted to them.
Li Cunxiao watched as the people rushed over with sickles, machetes, and carrying poles: "You can use the carrying poles, but don't kill anyone."
Li Cunxiao turned around: "My lord, these cavalrymen are quite well trained. It would be a pity to kill them."
Jiang Tian: "They're just a bunch of rabble. If they die, they die. Besides, they still have the blood debt of the people on their hands."
"My lord, if these cavalrymen had attacked together, the people in the city would have been wiped out long ago."
Besides, even the burning, killing, and looting were Chen Youliang's ideas.
Those of them in the army can't make decisions.
"My lord, the reason these cavalrymen are not strong in combat is because they lack military spirit."
