0794 Cavalry charge

However, they didn't know how fierce Liu Pei's firecrackers were. And the firearms in their hands are not the same thing as the firearms of the Ming army, and at the same time, Liu Pei doesn't know that the all-firearms troops he carries will give the opponent the illusion that he is a skirmisher, which can be regarded as a crooked attack.

The speed of the infantry was already slow, and Liu Pei deliberately slowed down the march. This gave the Houjin army in the city sufficient time to prepare. At the head of the city, Eculomb had already begun to assign tasks. He asked a Niu Lu Ezhen to lead 100 people to stay in the city. The other 700 people followed him and went outside to kill the Ming army.

But the named cow Lu Zhen begged Eculun to bring him with him. He also said: "I have been in the city for the past few days, and my body has softened. It's good to go out and chop a few Ming army activities! ”

Eculomb laughed. He didn't think there would be any surprises in this fight. According to the usual estimates, under the blows of 700 Houjin cavalry, the 2,000 Ming troops will probably be able to kill them all in less than a single meal! What's more, outside the city was just a group of scattered stragglers.

Therefore, Eculomb also agreed to Niu Lu's request. In this way, the high-ranking officers in the city, one Jiala Ezhen and two Niu Lu Ezhen, led 700 cavalry out of the city to line up.

At this time, the Houjin Army is indeed an elite division! Seven hundred cavalrymen went from leaving the city to lining up, that is, in a few minutes. And the timing was just right! At this moment, the cavalry of the Houjin army was less than two miles away from Liu Pei's troops, and they had no time to escape. And this distance is just enough to heat up the horse's body, and when it comes to charging, it can increase the horse's speed to the maximum.

Eculun's eyes swept left and right, and when he saw that the team was neat, he stretched out his right hand to Ling Xue'er's two Niu Lu Ezhen, and then swung it left and right. It means to break through the opponent's team directly, and then outflank it left and right when you turn around.

The two Niu Lu were really naturally understanding, and nodded to show that they understood. Then Eculun urged the horse forward, and the cavalry of the Houjin Army, who had already had a tacit understanding, also urged the horse together, so that the horse trotted slowly.

The horses were given the order and began to trot on their long legs. Running and running, because

The cold and stiff body becomes soft and flexible. The war horses also seem to know that they are about to go into battle, and they are gradually becoming excited! The bulging white mist erupted from the wide open nostrils, and with the heavy breathing of the Jin Jun after the horse, the murderous aura of the team was raised to the highest!

After running for a distance, Eculun also felt the change in the people around him. He smiled with satisfaction, looked up and began to take a closer look at the team in the distance.

The two teams were already very close at this time, and they could already see what the Ming army was doing. Eculomb almost laughed out loud when he looked closely!

It turned out that more than 20 soldiers of the Ming army actually unloaded a few iron frames from the car, pulled them apart and fixed them, and were nailing them to the ground with iron nails! From a distance, it seems that the rope is twisted between the iron shelves!

Ecullen didn't think those ropes could stop the galloping horses. It seems that these Ming troops are exhausted in donkey skills!

Eculomb estimated the distance and stabbed the horse with his spur. The horse under the crotch got the signal and immediately sped up, running faster and faster. And the others didn't need to give orders from Ekulun, and at the same time that Ekulun was speeding up, the other cavalry of the Houjin Army also sped up.

700 horses galloped and kicked up dust on the frozen earth. The cavalry lined up in five rows even brought up billowing dust, like a whirlwind, straight to the ranks of the Ming army! After these things, Jin Jun already feels that the victory is in hand! As long as they rush into the ranks of the Ming army, those Ming troops can only be cut and killed!

Just opposite Ekulun, Liu Pei looked coldly at the Houjin cavalry that was rushing over. After he found out about this, Jin Jun really fell for it, and he didn't hesitate to rush over! It seems that they don't even see that they are the plate armor worn by soldiers.

It is no wonder that both barbed wire and plate armor are coated with a layer of black lacquer for maintenance. It's so far away that I can't see what's going on. But when they had reached a certain distance, they saw that it was too late.

Liu Pei had been mentally estimating the distance, and when the cavalry approached about two hundred meters and entered the limit range of the firecracker, Liu Pei shouted loudly: "Shoot!" ”

This time Liu Pei did not discharge the usual two rows of horizontal formations, in order to strengthen the continuity of firepower, and

It was a line of 2,000 people into a full five rows! In this way, the soldiers take turns to shoot, and the lead bullets fired from the guns will never stop like raindrops!

Hearing the order, the impatient musketeers in the first row, who had been waiting for a long time, immediately pulled the trigger. With a flash of red light, a large stream of gunpowder smoke rose! A volley of buckshot was shot!

Eculund, who was running wildly on his horse, saw the fire gun launched on the opposite side, and he couldn't help but sneer in his heart! These Ming troops really don't remember to eat! What can you do with firing a firearm at such a distance?

But as soon as this thought flashed, someone around him screamed and fell from the horse! If you fall off a fast-galloping horse, not to mention whether you can break your neck, arms and legs, even if you fall to the ground intact, you will be trampled to death by the galloping war horse behind! Eculomb only hopes that this unlucky bastard will die sooner!

After all, it was shooting at the extreme range, so the first salvo of four hundred people fired from the platoon, and only fifteen people fell off their horses! However, the soldiers did not have time to get upset, and they quickly left the first row and returned to the rear to reload their ammunition.

The other soldiers took a step forward and aimed their guns at the officer's command. As soon as the soldiers took aim, the order to shoot was given. They immediately shoot buckshot at the target they were aiming at! Then a quick back-down rotation.

On Liu Pei's side, the soldiers were like a swarm of well-trained worker bees in a cyclical cycle, shooting rows of scorching lead bullets at their opponents!

But that's not the case on the Eculun's side! Eculomb watched the other party's firecracks round after round, round after round of shooting, and it seemed that they were firing endlessly! And every time he launches, someone around him will be planted!

After a few rounds of fighting, Eculun was horrified to find that the front row of people led by him was already very sparse! He turned his head to take a look, and saw that even the second row had a large number of gaps!

Only then did Eculun react, the other party's firearm was not a ringing sound, but a real weapon! Killing and wounding their own soldiers all the time! But Ekulun had no way to retreat at this time, because he had already rushed to a distance of less than a hundred steps from the Ming army!
