Not far away, two Houjin soldiers were sorting out the bodies of their companions. Both of them were wearing white armor, and at first glance they were people with white flags. The two men were tidying up the bodies and whispering. Niu Mantun pricked up his ears to listen to their conversation, trying to divert his attention so as not to stare at the corpse and vomit it.
The young Houjin soldier said: "This group of Ming soldiers can really fight!" I don't know how many Ming troops are like them who can fight? Ming has a lot of troops! ”
The older Houjin soldier said, "It shouldn't be much, right? Do you see how many battles we've fought here in Liaodong? The rest of the battles were won with ease. Only this battle has heavy casualties! ”
The young one said approvingly: "Yes! If the Ming army still has such a team, it will be really difficult to fight in the future! If it weren't for the idea of the Han people, I'm afraid we wouldn't have been able to break through the Ming army's position at this time! ”
The older one said with a sad face: "Yes! These people are horrible! Even with artillery bombardment, their formation was not out of order! was knocked out of a bloody alley by the cannon, and the people next to him still rushed out to fill the position! I really can't imagine if this battle could have been won without artillery? ”
The young Hehe said with a smile: "Fortunately, we have conquered Shenyang." The Khan was also smart and knew how to use the artillery of the Ming army to fight the Ming army! Otherwise, I'm afraid I'll die in battle the next time I charge into battle!" I just don't know who the generals of the Ming army are? Did you escape? These people are all good men! ”
The older one said: "Those generals of the Ming army are indeed good!" I've heard they're all dead. The leader is called Qin Bangmin, and the other is Zhou Dunji. There are many others who don't know the name! ”
The younger one said, "They are really good! After being bombarded by the artillery, we rushed in, and they also commanded the team to form a formation to fight us! In the end, it was like this, and in the end, it was not blocked, and hundreds of people still ran to the south bank of the river! That's amazing! ”
At this point, they had already sorted out the two corpses and their weapons and armor, and each left with a corpse on their backs. Niu Mantun also cleaned up the corpses of several Sichuan soldiers, stacked their weapons and armor into a pile, and waited for the cart to carry them away.
The Hou Jin army personally sorted out the corpses of their own people, not because they had a friendship with robes, but because the Hou Jin army had rules, and if they could bring back the corpses of their companions, they could obtain half of the property of the person's family, so these Hou Jin Jun came to clean up the corpses. Otherwise, they would have lost these jobs to the Han people a long time ago!
The battlefield was small and was quickly cleared. Niu Mantun's group received another order to cross the river to the south bank. It is said that there are thousands of Sichuan soldiers and Zhejiang soldiers on the south bank of the Hunhe River. Lao Khan gave a death order, this group of Ming troops must all stay in Liaodong, and not a single one is allowed to run away!
As soon as they crossed the river, they were driven to cut down wood and make carts. The urging from above is very urgent, and it seems that the momentum of the front line is not good. Because of the tight time, the manufacture of the car is also very rough. The branches on the trunk were simply treated and nailed together. Even when the cart was being manufactured, Niu Mantun still heard bursts of cannon sounds and faint fighting sounds.
Niu Mantun's team had just made more than a dozen carts when an officer came over to urge them to rush to the front line as soon as possible. Niu Mantun was so frightened that he was covered in cold sweat at this time. Because he had already heard Gan Delen's clear order: this time they were going to push the cart to cover the Houjin soldiers to charge into battle. Fortunately, Niu Mantun's car was made by him with a relatively thick trunk, although it was a little heavier, but at least the chance of survival was much greater.
On the way, Niu Mantun and they also encountered other teams pushing carts. Together, there were fifty or sixty wagons. This made Niu Mantun breathe a sigh of relief. With so many people attacking together, shouldn't he be so unlucky that he will be beaten to death?
Gandelen was also a battle-hardened officer. He walked up and down the line, urging everyone to pick up the pace and boost morale. After walking a short distance, a large number of Houjin soldiers gathered together, apparently waiting for the chariot to arrive at the soldiers who were ready to charge.
The cart passed through the gap in the ranks and approached the front line. The smell of gunsmoke that did not dissipate made Niu Mantun even more nervous. The advance of the cart was stopped by drinking. Niu Mantun looked from a distance through the gap in the wooden stakes of the chariot, and he could see the position of the Ming army. The Ming army's position looked thin, with quite a few segmented low walls and wooden fences. There should have been a ditch in front of the wooden fence and low wall, but it was filled in. Behind the low walls and wooden fences, many carts could be faintly seen, as well as the muzzles of black holes. In the open space between the two armies, there were still many broken carts and broken corpses of men and horses. Look at the clothes are all the corpses of Houjin soldiers. Some of the bodies are still intact, while others are not. What doesn't look like it should be smashed by the lead of the cannon. This made Niu Mantun frightened! His thoughts now have changed from not wanting to die to not wanting to break corpses! He desperately prayed that the gods and Buddhas could leave him a whole corpse!
Gandelen soon received the order and returned. Under his command and several other officers, dozens of wagons lined up. Gan Delen shouted loudly: "When I shout and rush in a while, you will push the cart forward with all your might!" How fast to push, how fast! Those who don't make a force, those who escape, are killed on the spot! Niu Mantun was frightened when he heard this, and couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva.
At this time, a large number of Houjin troops ran over, scattered behind the various carts. Gan Delen also held a shield in one hand and a knife in the other, standing behind Niu Mantun, Niu Mantun This car was pushed by seven people, and Niu Mantun was in the middle. There were more than 20 soldiers of the Hou Jin army hiding behind the chariot, preparing to follow the chariot to attack.
At this time, Niu Mantun was already so frightened that the six gods had no owner. But when he found out that Gan Delen was beside him, he felt like he had found the backbone. involuntarily showed a smile that was more ugly than crying to Gandelen.
Gan Deleng smiled when he saw Niu Mantun's appearance, gently tapped his shoulder with the handle of his knife and said, "You slave has done a good job!" The car is very strong! Don't worry, you'll just have to lower your head and push the cart up in a moment! We don't stop if we don't rush at you, you know? ”
Niu Mantun nodded again and again to show that he understood, but his throat was dry and he couldn't say anything. At that moment, a rattling arrow shot into the sky and let out a sharp chirp! Gan Deleng's hand holding the knife smashed on Niu Mantun's back and shouted, "Rush! Rush! Rush! ”
Niu Mantun and several people immediately used enough strength to push the cart forward. The car was very crudely made. The wheels are made of four logs that are slightly trimmed, so they are very heavy to push. Niu Mantun gritted his teeth and pushed the cart forward, and due to nervousness, his sweat came down in a few steps. But what made him panic was that there was no movement in the camp of the Ming army on the opposite side! If there is a shout of killing, he will be relieved. But this silent silence only made his fear even stronger!
