General Ibdul was the commander of these people. He thought he could break into the Tang Dynasty camp because he saw that the fighting nearby had reached a fierce level, and his army rushed out at this time, obviously taking advantage of the opportunity.
When the first batch of crossbow shells fell, he knew that he had made the right calculation, because the power of these shells was very small, and compared with the fireballs just now, the difference was really huge.
Just now, when his companions were fighting with the Tang army, he clearly saw those huge fireballs that blew his companions to pieces. He was also afraid that his army would suffer such a treatment, so he kept his men advancing slowly. He believed that the Tang army could not have so much gunpowder after a long journey.
Now his idea has been verified. The Tang army must have used all those giant gunpowder on their companions, and now only these small explosives are left, so he and his men have survived. As long as they can speed up and rush forward, they will be able to defeat this group of Tang army sooner or later.
There was nothing wrong with his idea, and theoretically it might succeed. However, when his army rushed to a certain position, suddenly a cloud of white smoke rose from the Tang army, followed by crackling sounds. At this time, a shadow was cast over everyone's hearts.
No one had ever seen anything like this, and no one knew what the outcome would be. But they soon realized the power of these weapons. Soldiers in the front row fell in droves, and even some camels were shot through. Just how powerful were these weapons? Killing people was normal, but even killing camels was something they had never seen before.
You have to know that judging from the wound, if the camel's wound were on a human, it is very likely that the entire body would be destroyed. Many people don't know how this happened, and some people even jumped off their horses and knelt on the ground to pray.
It’s not that these people are incompetent, but that they have never seen anything like this before. Whenever they don’t know how these things happened, they have to kneel on the ground and pray, and ask God for help. This is also their usual practice.
"Warriors, no matter what you encounter, you must charge forward. Only a charge can resolve everything. If we stop now, we will be defeated, defeated, and killed by our companions like the ones next to us."
Although General Ibdul was also afraid, he could not stop here. He had seen clearly that if he stopped, the number of casualties might be even greater. Perhaps that barrage of bullets was the last defense of the Tang army. As long as we could rush over, we could kill into the Tang army's camp. Once we broke in, no matter what the Tang army did, they would not be able to withstand our desert storm.
In fact, there was nothing wrong with his idea, but how could the cold weapon cavalry under his command break through the defense of the musketeers?
In fact, let alone them, even a few hundred years later, those heroic Eight Banners cavalrymen couldn't break through, let alone you. Although some of you have made it through the barrage, what's the point of rushing through? From here to the Tang army camp, there are at least hundreds of meters. In this situation, you will still be killed by them.
When General Ibdul finished speaking, a group of brave men indeed appeared in the military camp. They rushed forward regardless of their lives. Even if someone fell down, these people would never even look at them. They had only one goal, which was to break into the Tang Dynasty military camp.
Unfortunately, we only took a dozen steps forward before we were targeted by the musketeers. The Tang army wasn't stupid, so how could they possibly let us get close? Even the range of the bows and arrows wouldn't allow us to get close, as these cavalrymen also had bows and arrows. If we let them get within this distance, we would be vulnerable to their long-range attacks.
"Crossbowmen fill in."
Li Chengyi quickly gave orders. The group of cavalrymen who had just rushed to the front had already entered the range of the crossbows. At this time, there must be other people in front of the musketeers. If they rush over again next time, we may not be so lucky. This time we relied on luck, but next time we must rely on preparation.
Although Li Chengyi enjoys taking risks, who would be willing to take them if they could achieve victory without taking them? Every time you take a risk, you're putting everything on your luck, and we can't always let luck be on our side.
General Ibdul was dumbfounded. He had never seen such an attack method. Their army had suffered more than one-fifth casualties. In terms of time, only half an hour had passed.
"It's bad, we don't have enough cavalry."
Li Chengyi said this with some depression. Now he only had one cavalry under his command, and they could not be separated. If they were separated, neither side would benefit. Now both armies were in danger of collapse. He only needed the cavalry to rush forward and he could directly disperse the army.
"General, I think the last group is more important. They know how to dodge our artillery fire. The first group is simply a mob. Moreover, the first group has suffered heavy casualties, while the second group has only suffered a portion of them. We should deal with the second group first and ensure that the first group can't get away."
One of his deputy generals observed for a long time and finally found out some clues. The first group of people who rushed out still had one-third of their lives left, and the second group of people who rushed out still had two-thirds of their lives left. Of course, we have to kill those with two-thirds of their lives left first. As for those with one-third of their lives left, they have no ability to counterattack.
Li Chengyi picked up his telescope, looked at the two enemies, and finally reached out to the second group of enemies. Thousands of cavalrymen immediately rushed up, and at the same time, artillery also slammed into the second group of troops, which was General Ibdul's army.
The Tang army charged!
Facts proved that the deputy general's judgment was correct. If the Tang army had not charged, General Ibudul's troops would have been able to withdraw part of the force. But at this moment, the Tang cavalry rushed forward frantically, and the little system that had been retained was destroyed...
