Chapter 1669: Kobayashi Ride's debut
Qian Qiaogong didn't dodge or dodge so far, and he didn't order the cavalry to fight, is he crazy?
Originally, this was just a retaliatory battle initiated by him and Lu Zhiyu on his own initiative, and why did it have to be a decisive battle against the Qing cavalry who went out of the city to raid the Lu Zhiyu artillery regiment, and it was a life-and-death battle where the probability of losing was greater than the probability of winning?
In layman's terms, not necessary.
Xinba is not an important strategic stronghold, just a small town, no cities, fortifications to defend, and the population is not large, let alone wealth. Even if it is handed over to the Qing army, the Qing army will not want it, because it can't hold it at all.
But Qian Qiaogong doesn't seem to be going crazy, how can a crazy person command the wind and thunder cavalry to change formations before the battle?
There are 3,000 Wind and Thunder Cavalry, which cannot be done without absolute control over the troops.
The answer, in Tong Dai's expectation, was quickly revealed.
Tong Dai had even seen Qian Qiaogong, and he had even raised his hand to greet the elite rider beside him loudly and charged towards Qian Qiaogong.
The sound of horses' hooves, which were hurried and heavy, was like beating a thousand cowhide drums, even drowning out the sound of artillery in the distance.
However, the excitement is only for a moment, the Buddha said, in the snap of a finger.
The excitement and passion on Tong Dai's face stiffened in an instant, as if he had seen a ghost.
It's a ghost, a ghost with no face.
At that moment, all the Qing cavalry facing the direction of Qian Qiaogong had stiff expressions on their faces, as if they had seen a ghost.
Where Qian Qiaogong was, the cavalry was very dense.
This is normal in Tong Dai's opinion, the main general, there must naturally be dense defense around him, and the same is true for himself.
But at this moment, these dense cavalry suddenly dodged to the sides, revealing the hideous behind-Xiaolin Cavalry.
The heavy cavalry that has accelerated, the faces covered by the iron mask, aren't they the "grimaces" in the eyes of the Tartar cavalry?
A face that is desperate!
Who knows what Tong Dai and his subordinates experienced at the last moment of their lives?
Anyway, when the heavy cavalry is in an invincible attitude, where the "rumble" travels, there are pools of blood and mud.
There are no survivors.
Kobayashi rode under the iron hooves and did not need to be taken prisoner.
The cavalry of Tong Dai's department, which had already accelerated, had no time to turn around, let alone break and flee.
They almost slammed headlong into the heavy cavalry array with a kind of moth to fire "determination", just like a car and a train collided head-on, leaving nothing behind.
Dust to dust, soil to soil, thirty years in the east of the river and thirty years in the west of the river.
It's not that I didn't report it, the time has not come.
Today, it's time!
……。
The sudden appearance of the Iron Armored Heavy Rider.
Even the Manmeng Eight Banners Cavalry, which has always been known for its elite, was panicked.
Although there is still a distance of seven or eight miles between the two battlefields, such momentum can be seen at a glance in the unobstructed field.
Qing Qi reacted quickly, and began to retreat at the moment when he determined that Yuanshui could not save the near fire and could not rescue the main general Tong Dai.
At this time, the main force of Qing cavalry was still there.
Tong Dai attacked the 8,000 Wu Songwei Sanli front with 3,000 cavalry, causing Wu Songwei to suffer heavy casualties and almost piercing Wu Songwei's defense line, but its casualties were far less than half of Wu Songwei's.
Wu Songwei's soldiers almost used their own flesh and blood to block the heavy attack of the Qing cavalry, which is really singable and crying.
It stands to reason that the Qing army, which still has more than 2,000 cavalry, reacts quickly at this time, and it is possible to leave the battlefield, and it is very likely, because the wind and thunder cavalry, Xiaolin cavalry and they belong to the two battlefields, Wu Songwei has no strength to fight, even if he witnessed the enemy's main general's 800 cavalry wiped out in an instant, it can not boost their morale, this one, many people will be their lifelong battle, are concentrated in one day, at this time many soldiers' eyes are empty, mechanical, and even have lost the sense of touch, hearing, pain, .......
Qian Qiaogong is not an immortal after all, he can't be exhaustive, and he can't predict the movements of the Qing army fighting with Wu Songwei.
The only thing that is certain is that it is impossible for this Qing army to break through in its own direction.
The first Kobayashi rider was galloping in its strongest combat range, and no one dared to attack it, unless their head was trampled on by a donkey.
Then, it would be impossible for Wu Songwei to contain this enemy cavalry that was about to escape.
When the Qing army retreated like crazy in the northeast direction, that is, in the opposite direction of Xiaolin's cavalry, in a scattered formation.
And at this time, Lu Zhiyu made his wisest decision in this battle, shelling! Five miles to the northeast, there is no target, only distance, saturated coverage.
This is strange, at this time, the artillery was not as like the arm and finger of later generations, and it could easily change the direction of the shelling.
Heavy artillery weighing 1,000 catties or 2,000 catties has to be adjusted, and there is no time for a pillar of incense, so it can't be done at all, even if it is to raise the muzzle, it will take a lot of time.
Does the Domain of Lu have the ability to predict the unknown?
Of course not, in fact, the reason is very simple.
Lu Zhiyu knew that Xiaolin had crossed the river and was coming to Xinba.
And Qian Qiaogong suddenly took the initiative to expose from the woods, there must be his reason.
Lu Zhiyu would never believe that Qian Qiaogong, who could allow Wu Songwei to resist the enemy's cavalry charge with his flesh and blood, could find it with his conscience and abandon his previous plan.
Then, the lord guessed that it must be Xiaolin Rider who had arrived.
After that, Tong Dai led the cavalry to attack the wind and thunder cavalry, and Qian Qiaogong's calmness made Lu Zhiyu feel more reassured.
Otherwise, Lu Zhiyu didn't dare to sit idly by, he knew very well that Xiaolin Riding was Qian Qiaogong's heart, and Wind and Thunder Riding was the heart and soul of His Royal Highness King Wu, no one could be wiped out by Wind and Thunder!
So Lu Zhiyu had stopped the shelling there, and ordered the muzzle of the cannon to be turned around.
So why is it certain that it is northeast?
This is simpler, the northwest direction is the Wind Thunder Cavalry and the Xiaolin Cavalry who have not yet appeared, and it is impossible for the enemy cavalry to leave the northeast direction without enemy defense and not escape, and take the initiative to entangle with the Wind Thunder Cavalry, which is also a light horse.
Then there is only the northeast direction.
And the truth is just as Lu Zhiyu expected.
A hundred heavy artillery pieces suddenly fired a salvo, stirring up a hundred columns of smoke in a local area with a width of three and one thickness.
And this is not the end, but just the beginning.
The dozens of cavalry that fled to the front of the Qing cavalry disappeared in an instant as if they had crashed headlong into a barrage of artillery fire.
The follow-up rout of the enemy, turned around in a panic, making the follow-up war horses even more unstoppable, hundreds of horses crashed into a pile, it was really a person on his back and turned over, this kind of scene was more than Wu Songwei used his body to resist the tragedy of the Qing cavalry charge, and it was more than that.
At that time, Wu Songwei was counterattacking in defense, and he died, but he was also inferior to others, and he died in battle.
But these cavalrymen, just now, were still arrogant and waved their swords at the Wusong guards, but now, they have become mud, trampled into mud by their own cavalry, and naturally they are not the same.
But this is the loss of hundreds of horses, not enough to make the Qing horses seriously damaged, they still have at least 2,000 horses.
Qing Qi turned again, due north!
However, it was late.
