Chapter 304: The flames are burning the plains, and the killing is monstrous
On the other side of the battlefield, when Jiannu came like a tide, Qin Chuan frowned and shouted, "Watch the distance, prepare the javelin." ”
"Yes!"
The sword and shield men, spear and spear men under his command drew their javelins one after another.
Qin Chuan raised the binoculars again, and his face suddenly changed.
I saw that in Jiannu's charging formation, some people suddenly stopped, and then picked up their bird guns and began to aim.
Among them, there are four tiger squat cannons that are being nailed.
Qin Chuan hurriedly shouted: "Huang Liuxi, take your people to defeat those gunners and bird gunners, the musketeers lie down to shoot, and the others all lie down, pay attention to covering, beware of bows and arrows." ”
Huang Liuxi also noticed the opponent's gunner and bird gunner, but he had just fired a shot and was reloading quickly.
Fortunately, there were more than a dozen sharpshooters who had already been loaded, and after quickly aiming, they all hooked the trigger.
Gunshots rang out, and several gunners on the other side fell in response.
Almost at the same time, a burst of gunfire rang out on the opposite side, and Jiannu had two tiger squat cannons and fifty or sixty bird guns firing.
After an instant, there was a scream in the formation of Emperor Guan's army.
Fortunately, most of the Guandi troops were lying down, and Jiannu's bird guns only caused less than ten casualties of the Guan Emperor army, plus those bird guns were not very powerful, and most of them were only slightly injured.
However, the two shells of the tiger squat cannon killed and injured seven or eight Guan Emperor soldiers, the heavy ones died on the spot, and the light ones also broke their hands and feet.
At this time, another bowstring sound sounded in the Jiannu array.
"Rain of arrows!" Qin Chuan shouted again.
The Guan Emperor soldiers raised their shields above their heads.
Because many of the Guan Emperor's troops were lying on their stomachs, the shields could only cover their heads and backs, but not their buttocks and legs, so the casualties in this wave of arrow rain were somewhat large.
Qin Chuan took a cursory glance and found that there were at least two or three hundred people who were hit by the arrows, but fortunately, the power of those throwing light arrows was not great, and most of the people who were hit by the arrows were either buttocks or legs and feet, and the injuries were not serious.
"Huang Liuxi, okay?"
"Alright."
"Okay, let's go, let's get rid of the gunners and bird-gunners first."
"Yes!"
As soon as Hua Ying fell, Huang Liuxi's rifled gun erupted a tongue of fire, and a Jiannu gunner who was loading ammunition fell in response.
The rest of the sharpshooters also pulled the trigger, and in the blink of an eye, most of the gunners and bird-gunners of Jiannu were killed or wounded.
Emperor Guan's 500 flintlock pistols and 80 tiger squat cannons also erupted in anger, and Jiannu, who was rushing towards him with murderous violation, instantly fell a large piece, including many bird gunners who were lucky enough to survive.
Wanyan Yechen's Jiannu did not have a big shield, only an ordinary wooden shield, at most wrapped with leather or copper and iron sheets, which could not stop the tiger squat cannon at all.
Seeing that the opponent's gunners and gunners were all killed and wounded, Qin Chuan shouted for the Guan Emperor army lying down to stand up in order to increase the protective area of the shield.
The distance of one hundred and twenty steps is neither close nor far, and under normal circumstances, the rear gunner can only fire two shots, and the opponent will inevitably rush to the front.
However, Jiannu's armor was heavy, his pace was slow, and all those who rushed in front were killed by guns, so the musketeers and gunners of the Guan Emperor's army fired three rounds, and Jiannu rushed to within thirty paces.
Under the blows of these three rounds of firepower, more than half of Wanyan Yechen's 2,000 and five bannermen had already been killed or wounded.
The Mongol cavalry, which had been harassing from the flanks, also lost nearly three horses under the blow of firearms.
Despite the heavy damage, Wanyan Yechen and several generals kept shouting to boost morale and urge the soldiers to rush forward.
As long as they can fight each other in close combat, they still have a chance to win.
The Jiannu all knew that there was a Ming army behind them, which had cut off their back road, and if they didn't win this battle, probably everyone would die.
Therefore, with the encouragement of Wanyan Yechen and others, the surviving more than 1,000 Jiannu rushed over with red eyes and murderous spirits as if they had been beaten with chicken blood.
Jiannu also had javelins, but there were very few of them, and with the momentum, they began to throw them forty or fifty zhang away.
The Guan Emperor soldiers raised their shields one after another to block those javelins, but many people were still pierced.
Waiting for the other party to enter thirty steps, Qin Chuan shouted: "Retreat with firearms and throw guns." ”
The more than 1,000 Guan Emperor soldiers in front of them twisted their bodies in unison and threw out the javelins in their hands.
The dense javelins made a piercing whistling sound in the air, and they fell overwhelmingly into the Jiannu array.
In the blink of an eye, more than a third of the more than 1,000 Jiannu had fallen.
The Guan Emperor soldiers quickly took out the second javelin and threw it again.
After two rounds of javelins, there were only about 300 Jiannu left.
But by this time, they had already rushed to a distance of about ten paces.
Wanyan Yechen, who was pressing the formation behind, turned pale in the face, but he still raised his waist knife and shouted loudly: "Warriors! Kill them all! Not a single one to stay! Kill! ”
"Kill!"
The hundreds of slaves threw away their javelin-ridden shields, and the sound of killing shook the heavens and the earth.
"Raise your shield, and the spearmen are ready to engage in battle."
"Firearms hit the Mongols on the flanks."
"The red-clothed squire rushes with me."
Qin Chuan suddenly pulled out the long knife at his waist, and then strode forward.
Behind him, a hundred red-clothed attendants rushed forward like a flame.
The gunners, musketeers, Huang Liuxi and others quickly retreated, and then aimed all their guns at the Mongols on the flanks.
Hundreds of Jiannu slammed into the shield wall of Emperor Guan's army like a surging wave, and the wall collapsed several times in an instant.
Saimuha took the lead, leading more than 20 Bayalas to break through a gap, and the long knife in his hand slashed the head of a Guan Emperor army in front of him, and then went straight forward.
"Hold on! Fight to the death! ”
Li Dingguo, who was still young, led his team of soldiers and crossed in front of Saimuha and others.
"Look for death!"
Saimuha shouted in Manchu, then jumped high and slashed at Li Dingguo's head.
The diminutive Li Dingguo leaned sideways and held the shield in front of him with his arms and shoulders.
With a loud "bang", the wooden shield cracked, and Li Dingguo's body was shocked back two steps.
But he quickly rushed forward in great strides, and stabbed Saimuha, who had no time to retract his knife.
Saimuha dragged his long knife and jumped backwards, dodging his blade.
Li Dingguo was just about to continue forward, when a Jiannu leaned over a steel fork and stabbed him in the chest.
Li Dingguo hurriedly raised his shield, and the steel fork just stuck into the crack of the shield and pierced into his arm.
Saimuha took the opportunity to pounce on him and slashed at him with a hideous face.
At this moment, a spear stretched out from the side, which was able to block Saimuha's long knife.
Li Dingguo endured the pain in his arm, and did not retreat a step against the steel fork of the Jiannu, only to see with his spare eyes that it was Zhao Lishan, the former head of Ningwu Guan, who had just joined the service.
He also saw that the group of white-armored bayalas were extremely fierce, and in just a few breaths, five of the soldiers of his own squad had fallen in a pool of blood, and more than ten soldiers of the next squad had been killed and wounded.
Zhao Lishan, who saved his life, was also forced to retreat by the Jiannu general, and he could die at any time.
Li Dingguo was anxious, but the damned Jiannu in front of him was holding his shoulder with a steel fork.
At this moment, he saw a fiery red shadow in the corner of his eye.
Just when Saimuha hacked the Ming army general who was in the way to death, a fiery red shadow suddenly appeared in front of him, pounced like a tiger, and a bright sword light slashed at him from top to bottom.
Saimuha was taken aback and hurriedly raised his long knife.
With a loud sound of the "bell", Saimuha's arm went numb, and he took two steps back to take advantage of the situation, and then fixed his eyes.
I saw that the person who came was tall and dignified, looking at him coldly with murderous eyes.
"Qin Chuan!"
Saimuha blurted out subconsciously.
"Report your name!"
Qin Chuan did not take advantage of the situation to pursue, but took a sideways step, and the long knife in his hand flicked up, and the Jiannu who was holding Li Dingguo was missing an arm.
A group of fiery red shadows appeared behind him, and they pounced on the group of white-armored baba like fire.
"Dajin Kingdom inlaid with the red flag Lazhangjing, Saimuha!"
Sai Muha's face was hideous, and while reporting his name, he rushed towards Qin Chuan.
Qin Chuan was not afraid, first took a step to the left, and then suddenly took a big step to the right, avoiding Saimuha's knife momentum at the same time, the long knife changed from a split to hanging, and put it on Saimuha's arm, and then slashed with the power of the two sides rushing forward.
Sai Muha snorted, quickly twisted his body, slashed the long knife in his hand for half a circle, and slashed towards Qin Chuan's waist.
Qin Chuan's knife tip was facing downward, blocking with the blade, and suddenly rushed forward, the moment he blocked, the tip of the knife suddenly picked out a little, and with his own momentum, he slammed it up.
The blade slashed through Saimuha's ribs, cutting through the cotton cloth on the surface of the iron armor on the cloth surface, and through the armpit that was not protected by armor, bringing out a bloody blood.
"Ah......h
Saimuha screamed, and before he could fight back, Qin Chuan turned behind him and slashed his right shoulder with a long knife.
Saimuha screamed again, and the long knife in his hand fell to the ground.
Qin Chuan didn't give him any chance to resist, the long knife flew over, slashed his limbs several times, and took advantage of the moment when he knelt on the ground, and smashed the back of the knife into the back of his head.
Samha fell to the ground.
"Kill!"
Qin Chuan dragged his long knife, and together with the hundred red-clothed attendants under his command, he instantly drowned those white-armored bayaras.
Not long after, he led the red-clothed attendant towards another gap.
The battle lasted only half an hour, and the Jiannu who rushed into battle were already dead and wounded.
The Mongolian cavalry on the flank wanted to take advantage of the opportunity of Jiannu to charge into the formation and charge with a conical cavalry formation, but before they could rush in front of them, they were beaten by hundreds of firearms.
The hundreds of cavalry in the rear of Emperor Guan's army began to move, outflanking those Mongolian cavalry, as well as Wanyan Yechen and others who were pressing the formation.
Wanyan Yechen's face was pale, and he looked at this scene fixedly.
"My lord, let's go."
A guard beside him urged anxiously.
"Let's go."
Wanyan Yechen swallowed his dry throat, spit out a word with difficulty, and then turned his horse's head and led dozens of guards to gallop towards the east.
Before he could go far, he saw thousands of cavalry rushing towards him.
The Jiannu on the east side of the camp had been killed, and Luo Ba had already led the Shifang Battalion to break into Yan Yechen's camp, and began to strangle the small number of Jiannu who stayed behind, capturing thousands of trembling Aha slaves in the camp.
Luo Da Niu led the lead to the camp and pounced towards Wanyan Yechen.
After Yan Yechen's face changed greatly, he closed his eyes helplessly.
On his left is Hongtao Mountain, on his right is the Sanggan River, there is a blockade in front and a chasing army in the back.
Dead.
