Chapter 1111: Past Glory

I was also overjoyed when I heard it in my ears, and said: "The Ming army is scared, the Ming army can't resist it, so kill me?" At this time, the cavalry in his hands became more and more happy, and rushed to Dongzhimen one after another.

After some pre-war mobilization and training for most of the day, these 3,000 generals and guards finally have some appearance, although they are not as good as the Shenji Battalion and the 3,000 Battalion, but as long as they are used properly, they can be regarded as a soldier and horse that can go to the battlefield.

Moreover, although Dongzhimen is unpopular, it is not a project made of tofu, there are more than 10,000 people and horses on the city wall, and it is enough to resist for a while, with this convenience, he will not rush over to fight with him after hearing the news, but make every step of the fight with Zhang Yi, Jin Yixiao and others, to ensure that these 3,000 soldiers and horses can repel the siege of the Tartars in one fell swoop.

The first brigade of men and horses finally rushed to the city gate, began to attack the city gate, the infantry lifted the heavy wood under the cover of the cavalry, and hit the city gate one by one, each impact, the city wall immediately had more feather arrows, but these are nothing for the Mongolian cavalry, except for individual Mongolian knights killed and wounded, the rest of the soldiers did not have much damage, they brandished the Pu knife, with a curved bow to shoot back, the Mongols' shooting method was much higher than these Ming troops, after hearing a scream, many Ming troops on the city wall were put down, However, in this way, it caused a new round of attacks by the Ming army, and they burst into flames and killed many soldiers immediately.

But the cavalry that came this time were all Mongolian cavalry, after a long battle, the rows and rows of firearms did make many Tartars panic for a while, but after adapting, they felt that these firearms were actually nothing to fear, just use a shield to dodge, it was not enough to kill, so after the initial panic, it stimulated their bones of murderous spirit, everyone shouted and rushed to the city gate, more and more fierce than the previous attack.

Although the Ming army of the city wall was afraid, but today Yang Zheng's order was still there, and no one dared to retreat, so he had to use feather arrows and fire guns to block the strong enemy, but the enemy had already prepared, and the lethality was limited.

Seeing that Dongzhi Gate could not be defended, at this moment, there was a burst of killing sounds from inside the city gate, and the first member of the young general waved the order flag, urging his subordinates to rush to the city gate.

The city gate was slowly opened, these big Tartars were unexpected, the Tartar infantry who were originally ready to ram, actually forgot to hit again, and before they came to their senses, the Ming army that rushed out from the city gate, brandished the Pu knife in his hand and began to kill, and under the cold, the Tartars were killed in a large area.

Zhang Yong on the city wall glanced at it, and saw that the young general led by him was wearing a white robe, holding a paper fan in his hand, the breeze was fierce, and he had a somewhat elegant temperament, the man glanced at the tartar in front of him, and pointed forward with the feather fan in his hand and shouted: "Where is Zhang Yi?" ”

Immediately walked out from behind a person, that person with thick eyebrows and big eyes, holding a big scimitar, looking quite a bit fierce Zhang Fei, and hugged his fist at the young general at the head and said: "The end will be!" ”

"Kill it!" The paper fan in the hand of the young general at the head was lightly clicked, and he said coldly.

Zhang Fei clenched his fists in response: "Brothers, go out with me?" ”

"Kill it out"! As soon as the words fell, the soldiers behind him shouted loudly, and the dancing knives, guns, and sticks rushed out.

Seeing the Ming army rushing out of the gate, the Tartars did not panic, but each took a few steps back, and began to form a pair one by one, the scimitar in his hand was erected, and he looked at the Ming army rushing to kill, as if the Ming army in front of him was a group of lambs staying.

The leader also stared coldly at the young general at the leader, and said to the Tanma beside him: "Who is this person?" ”

Na Tanma said: "This person's surname is Yang, and his single name is the coach who stayed in Beijing this time?" ”

He also said "oh" first, and said, "Prepare for battle"!

"Yes!" The Mongolian Tatar soldiers behind him responded to their own calls and quickly set up a formation and waited for the battle.

Yang Zheng also looked at the other party coldly, he had already found out how many men and horses came to the Tartars this time, how many infantry, and even how to capture Datong City this time, he thought that this time it was Taishi Tuhuan who came to attack in person, but he didn't want to lead the soldiers, but he was a teenager, and he didn't know his life, he couldn't help but be a little curious, but he didn't have the heart of contempt for the enemy because of this, and his face became more and more strict.

The two sides lined up in front, and the other side was in a team of thirty people, lined up in a row, which was not very peculiar, and it was not even a formation.

Yang Zheng is a team of 12 people, the first is the captain, the second two hold a long card, a rattan card, the long player holds a long shield to block the heavy arrows and spears of the Japanese robbers, the rattan hand holds a light rattan shield and has a javelin, waist knife, the long player and the rattan player mainly cover the rear team to advance, and the rattan player can also fight with the enemy in close combat in addition to covering.

Then the two of them are holding the wolf laugh for the wolf, the wolf is the use of the southern growth of the bamboo, choose its old and solid, the end of the bamboo obliquely cut into a pointed shape, and leave the sharp branches around it, each wolf is about three meters long, the wolf hand uses the sharp blade at the front end of the wolf to assassinate the enemy to cover the advance of the shield hand and the attack of the spearman behind. Then there were four spearmen with spears, two on the left and two on the right, and the shieldmen and wolf-bearers on the left and right in front of them.

This was followed by the skirmishers with short knives, who, if they did not stab the enemy, rushed forward with their daggers to slash the enemy. The last one was the fireman in charge of the meal. The formation is also very strange.

Dongzhimen did not fight at this time, and became extremely quiet, but everyone could see that this was the calm before the storm, and once the fight began, it must be an earth-shattering, weeping ghost and god fight, so no one spoke, and even dared not breathe loudly.

Yang Zheng's mandarin duck formation has been familiar with Zhang Yi, Jin Yixiao and others, and every time they encounter a war, they will use this formation to deal with it, this formation is simple, but a combination of long and short, both offensive and defensive, and rare changes are flexible, so they have started to train these guards and guards since this morning, and they are familiar with this formation in front of them, but whether they can deal with the ten thousand Tartars in front of them is still an unknown number, Jin Yixiao and Zhang Yi couldn't help but be nervous.

After all, it was the first time for the other side to lead such a large-scale war, although he had made sufficient preparations, but after all, it was the first time that he was somewhat nervous, especially the calm and calm feeling of the other party's expression, which made him have an intuition from his heart, and the young man in front of him was only afraid that it would be difficult to deal with.

Fortunately, he made a lot of effort for this attack on Beijing City, that is, the formation in front of him is not famous, but the victory lies in maneuverability and flexibility, as long as he wields his scimitar to command, the soldiers under his command can make a rapid rush to kill, as long as the other party is a little slower than half a beat, he will be cut off by his soldiers' head-on scimitars, so this formation, there is nothing fancy, but the effect of killing is excellent, he believes that he will be able to scare the Ming army in front of him later.

Yang Zheng didn't know that the other party still had this idea, what he was worried about now was that the three thousand guards and guards were proficient in the Mandarin Duck formation, this set of formations had not been used since it was used in the ancient city of Hangzhou, whether he could deal with the Tartar in front of him, he really didn't have a lot in his heart, but he had to go out to fight in front of him.

In fact, he was too worried, as the palace and the palace of the big official's mansion, the guards themselves are the elite of the soldiers, they will not only form formations on weekdays, but also are extremely familiar with various formations, this mandarin duck formation, the use of an evacuation battle formation, in addition to requiring soldiers to be skilled in technology, is to fully pay attention to the coordination of various weapons in the small army, each infantry squad is equipped with long weapons and short weapons at the same time.

The spear, which is more than 12 feet long, is an effective weapon of attack when engaged, but its limitation is that it must be kept at a considerable distance from the enemy. If the enemy cannot be stabbed within range of the barrel of the gun, the weapon is immediately wasted. Therefore, Qi Jiguang made the following configuration for an infantry squad: 1 captain, 1 firefighter, and 10 soldiers. Four of the 10 fighters were armed with spears as the main force of the attack. In front of it are four more soldiers: the soldier on the right holds a large rectangular pentagonal rattan plaque, and the soldier on the left holds a small round rattan plaque, both made of rattan.

Later, two soldiers held a "wolf bamboo", that is, a large bamboo with branches and leaves, about three feet long. After the pikemen, two soldiers carried "palladium". "Palladium" is a mountain-shaped, made of iron, seven or eight feet long, and a rocket is placed in the recess at the top, that is, it is tied with an arrow that explodes, and after ignition, it can go straight to the enemy formation.

It can be said that this formation is not difficult to arrange, and the tactics of the "Mandarin Duck Array" created by Qi Jiguang later are also designed for some simple and simple soldiers.

In addition to sweeping down the enemy, this kind of wolf can also have a hidden effect and can make the soldiers brave. The "Mandarin Duck Formation" used in the Anti-Japanese War was a tactic based on small groups of infantry, designed to deal with the pirates and adapt to the terrain of the south. The task of Jizhou Military Town is to defend against the large cavalry of Mongolia, so this new technology developed on the basis of the "Mandarin Duck Array" has begun to take shape on the scale of coordinated operations of various arms.

In front of them, these guards, guards, and families are actually much stronger than those conscripts who are familiar with the formation, but they are just disobedient, and now they have become a lot more honest after Zhang Yi and Yang Zheng's training, and once they are honest, the guards and courtyards are actually quite terrifying.
