Chapter 818: Guan Ning Iron Cavalry
The battle song is surging and impassioned, like the arrival of a king.
Opposite the sea of flags of the Qing army, the roaring echo is like the sky falling apart, and the mountains are shouting tsunami.
At the moment when Guanning Iron Cavalry was the most imposing and thousands of troops and horses were about to rush out, Wan Junjie, the commander of the Shenwu Army, roared hoarsely: "Release!" ”
His voice was sonorous and powerful, and it seemed to overshadow the momentum of the thousands of troops on the opposite side.
The positions of the rocket battalion, mortar battalion, and grenadier battalion immediately let out a terrible roar.
First, hundreds of cannonballs flew out like locusts, rushing towards the Guanning Iron Cavalry who was swept by the left flank.
In an instant, the earth trembled, the heavens and the earth seemed to be torn apart, and the violent and shocking explosions, like the thunder that smashed overhead in summer, a large number of flames and black clouds soared into the sky, mixed with a flying rain and the terrible screams of men and horses.
Then, hundreds of Dongfeng rockets burned their fuses, and with dazzling flames, they dragged a long trail of smoke into the Guanning Iron Horse.
Wu Sangui had naturally heard of this big killing weapon, and he was shocked in his heart, and hurriedly waved the order flag, ordering his most precious Guan Ning Iron Cavalry to do tactical evasion.
However, in the face of artillery fire of this scale, the battlefield has already become a pot of porridge, where can you still see Wu Sangui waving the flag and shouting, unless Ming Jin withdraws his troops, the sharp sound of the gong can be heard by them.
Hundreds of Dongfeng rockets burst one after another, like fireworks during the Chinese New Year, which sounded quite loud.
The small iron bullets and other fragments produced by the explosion spread like a torrential rain of pear blossoms, spreading and enveloping the surroundings, instantly causing a large area of casualties on the Guanning Iron Cavalry, and the already chaotic scene was even worse.
Wu Sangui had also been with Emperor Tianwu for a few days, and he had studied this weapon of the Tianwu Army a little, and tried all kinds of methods to restrain the Tianwu Army, or minimize casualties when facing the Tianwu Army.
It's just that he didn't expect that after a few years, new equipment appeared in the Ming army, and the speed of artillery shooting increased several times!
At this time, it was Wu Sangui's younger brother Wu Sanfu who led the Guanning Iron Cavalry, who was quite a bit military-minded, and when he saw this situation, he immediately made a decision, held high the banner, signaled the rear army to slow down, and charged in turn by riding the wall.
The generals of the Ming army in the distance were stunned for a moment, and their eyes were full of surprise.
Cao Bianjiao muttered: "Isn't this the wall-riding tactic of my Long Wu Army, Wu Sangui, a bastard, won't pay tuition after learning?" ”
After changing the formation, the area of the Guanning Iron Cavalry under artillery fire was greatly reduced, the number of casualties dropped all of a sudden, and they began a new round of impact.
At this time, the Eight Banners Chinese Army led by Wu Sangui also began to attack.
The Ming army scattered and attacked all over the country, and the tiger was transferred away from the mountain to flicker away part of the Ming army, at this time, the strength of the Qing army was two or three times higher than the Ming army, and the number of cavalry alone was more than the total number of remaining Ming troops, and Wu Sangui's confidence increased greatly.
"Kill! Capture the Emperor Ming alive! ”
Wu Sangui carried his two-meter-long machete and personally rushed to kill, wanting to avenge his eldest brother Wu Sanfeng, as well as his second uncle Zu Dabi......
Within half a day, two relatives were killed by the Emperor Taishang, and this revenge is not avenged, and heaven does not tolerate it!
"Put!"
"Put!"
Wan Junjie, the commander of the Shenwu Army, strode between the artillery camps, roaring hoarsely.
In an instant, the sky seemed to be hail, and dense mortar shells flew up in waves, as if they didn't need money.
Where it fell, dense blood mist rose up, people and horses were shattered, and blood plasma was splashed, which was unbearable to see.
The internal organs of some cavalry were blown out, and the large intestines and small intestines flowed all over the ground.
Under the banner of the Ming army marshal, the Emperor Zhu Youzhen rode on a horse and watched this tragic battle from afar, and said with emotion: "What a beautiful landscape......"
Zhu Youzhen was not worried that these two Tartars would be able to come in, not to mention that the soldiers were not panicked and full of morale.
The number of artillery fire, the frequency of firing, and the musket arrays on the periphery, the small mortars of the grenadier battalion, the grenade battalions, etc., the two Tartars had to peel off their skin fiercely every time they took a step.
Zhu Youzhen sighed, as the emperor's son said, the infinite power of science and technology can change the form of war.
Now it's not just changing the form of war, it's simply a slaughtering bully!
However, the Emperor Taishang was very happy to see it!
In the past, the Guanning Iron Cavalry was the strength that the Ming Dynasty relied on to fight against Jiannu, and the imperial court spent a lot of silver in order to support them, just because they were iron cavalry that could fight, and they were more powerful than other armies!
Whether it was Sun Chengzong, who founded the Guanning Iron Cavalry, or later Yuan Chonghuan, and then to Zu Dashou and Wu Sangui, the imperial court has always accommodated them because of the existence of this army.
However, this army finally followed his main general to the enemy and became the enemy of the Ming Dynasty, how could Zhu Youzhen not be angry?
The explosions on the battlefield continued one after another, and the sky was filled with flames and gunsmoke, and the sky above the Qing army seemed to be covered with a layer of black clouds.
Wu Sangui's forehead was covered with a big cold sweat, and his brows were furrowed tightly.
Before the operation, everything was planned, and the whole army rushed to the top with blood, and the pride was suddenly born, and the emperor of the Ming Dynasty was captured alive and famous.
But now that the war has arrived, a very bad premonition suddenly rises in his heart......
The decision he made before was a little too impatient, but the other side was the battle-hardened Tianwu Army! Even if he has fought many times with fewer enemies, he has never been defeated......
But in an instant, Wu Sangui killed this idea that had just popped up.
The whole situation is no longer up to him, so why should he be angry and destroy his prestige!
Even if you pay some price at this time, or even a heavier price, as long as you can catch Zhu Youzhen, everything will be worth it!
The situation on the battlefield has changed, and after the Guanning Iron Cavalry used the tactics of riding the wall in front and back, they broke through the fire blockade of the Ming army one after another and forced the Ming army into a large array.
"Ready!"
The left flank of the Ming army was in the battle formation, and seeing that the Guanning Iron Cavalry had rushed to within one hundred and fifty steps, the brigade commander Xu Qingshan did not hesitate at all, and pointed high with the sword in his hand, letting out a heart-rending shout!
"Fire!"
"Smack! Syllable! Smack......"
For a while, the roar of rifle salvos came and went, and thick gunpowder smoke rose into the sky.
The wall-riding tactics used by the Guanning Iron Cavalry, and the Ming Army's infantry used the tactics of lining up to shoot.
Who reckons whom, it depends on whose frequency is faster and whose courage is greater!
The Guanning Iron Cavalry was constantly shot and fell off their horses, and the neat and crowded riding wall made them more vulnerable to the attack of the platoon.
The number of cavalry of the Qing army was too large, especially after the speed of the cavalry increased, at least ten steps per second, which was extremely fast.
In the middle of Guan Ning's iron horse, Wu Sanfu rode his horse and galloped, shouting like a male dog: "Break through their defenses!" Capture the emperor and become famous through the ages! ”
Suddenly, a small black dot in the sky hit him, and Wu Sanfu shrank his neck in horror, trying to avoid it.
However, this grenade seemed to love him and took the initiative to give it to him.
On the battlefield, an ordinary explosion sounded, which was quickly drowned out in the midst of many sounds.
Looking at Wu Sanfu's location again, he can no longer be found.
The war horse under his crotch just now can be found, lying more than ten meters away from before, a bloody piece, and there is a helmet of a general of the Qing army next to the remnants of the war horse.
