Chapter 230: Beating the Reservoir Dogs (Subscription Requested)

"Kill the twitter, kill the twitter......"

The sound of horses' hooves rattled. The Japanese cavalry sorted.

Nabeshima Katsushige was caught off guard by the rapid collapse of the two winged feudal soldiers. After reacting, he decisively sent out cavalry. Although he didn't have many cavalry in his hands, and it looked obviously not as tall as the cavalry of the Zheng army on the opposite side, he had to play this trump card at this time. In this way, the rout of the two winged feudal armies was organized.

Although he can only choose one of the "left and right" two.

Zheng Zhilong smiled. The Japanese cavalry troops attacked with all their troops, rushed out of the right flank of the Japanese army regardless of it, and swept towards the battlefield of the left flank (Zheng army).

Perhaps they thought that they could force Zheng Jun, who was already pursuing the Japanese rout with bayonets, to stop his steps.

can even hold the delusion of taking the opportunity to defeat Zheng Junbing......

Zheng Zhilong laughed quickly. Because he knew that the soldiers and horses on the left flank would soon give the Japanese a great taste.

Qi Nantang has been sick and died for many years, and these little devils have forgotten what a tiger squat cannon is.

Zheng Jun's three-catty cannon and five-catty cannon had already been pulled behind the battle, but a door-tiger squatting cannon always followed the army. If it weren't for the fact that the firing distance of the two sides was about 50 paces, this would have been beyond the range of the Tiger Squat Cannon, and the Japanese counter-charge was also vulnerable under the volley of the guns, and there was no need for the Tiger Squat Cannon to spew out anger, they would have already shown their might in the battle formation.

The deafening sound of artillery sounded, and when the Japanese cavalry pounced on the Zheng army, the musketeers in the front two rows of the Zheng army came with a very crisp salvo, hitting a group of Japanese cavalry, but then they could only stand up with bayonets and wait for the battle, as if they were doing the greatest protection for their comrades who were still in the whole team behind them.

The dazzling bayonets made the Japanese cavalry crazy, and they were not afraid at all, but shouted excitedly one by one.

Because in their opinion, this is Zheng Junqian's last resort, and it is a desperate move in desperation.

It's like a thin layer of spearmen in the outermost circle of the chaotic infantry array.

Their hooves can easily break through this layer of protection, which is like a thin layer of paper that can be broken with a single stab. Then you can use the blade in your hand to harvest the lives of the enemies in the chaos to your heart's content.

But he didn't think of the tiger squat cannon anyway.

A door tiger squatting cannon spewed fireworks, straight on the battle line of two or three hundred meters on the left flank, and a white dragon was raised.

The expressions of the Japanese cavalry in front of them changed suddenly, and the armor on their bodies was vulnerable. In the horizontal flight of countless projectiles, blood mist erupted from their bodies, and a large piece fell in an instant.

Many people have a dumbfounded expression until they die, and no one wants to die like this. The victory that seemed to be within reach suddenly became so far away......

It wasn't until they were slammed to the ground by the horses that those who were lucky enough to survive came to their senses, and then let out a terrible scream.

If a strong wind blows through the wheat field, all the ears of wheat are low. Hundreds of Japanese cavalry fell to the ground in unison amid the sound of artillery, and Snitke and Jacob, who were watching, trembled, and the shock of the Japanese army itself can be imagined.

One by one, they grabbed the war horses, or they were stunned, or they turned around and ran.

After this blockade, another group of Zheng Jun's musketeers were organized, and they fired a ...... and a volley. The Japanese cavalry was again a group of people on their backs, and they were put down and many people and horses.

After the shooting, the Zheng army musketeers no longer loaded their ammunition upright, but under the leadership of the officer, they charged straight towards the Japanese army with bayonets.

"Kill......"

In the loud shouts, thousands of musketeers swept towards the Japanese cavalry.

"Kill the twitter, kill the twitter......"

"The collapse of the Ming Kingdom has sounded, and the collapse of the Ming Kingdom has sounded......"

The shouts of the officers sounded in the Japanese cavalry group, and the cavalry who came back to their senses woke up to the fact that this was still a bloody battlefield. How could they be distracted, they began to urge their war horses one after another.

The distance between the two sides is already very close, and the cannons of the Ming people have already sounded, and the victory or defeat is not yet known when they rush to kill at this time.

However, they had never seen a grenade, and the distance between the two sides was so close that the grenadier could easily throw the grenade between them after running a few steps.

"Boom, boom, boom......"

As if a cannon sounded, a large stream of gunpowder smoke erupted from the firelight, shrapnel and broken iron shot in all directions, and a group of Japanese cavalry fell.

"Yaga, this can't be ......"

"Nani ......"

This sudden blow caused the Japanese cavalry to be distraught one by one, and their morale was even lowered.

Many people are wondering, why can the artillery of the Ming Kingdom continue to sound after it has been fired?

Wouldn't it be faster for them to continue to fight?

"Boom, boom, boom......" grenades continued to play.

There was already a feeling of being crushed in the hearts of the Japanese, and some people even felt that they were not fighting back, because the Japanese cavalry at this time was already a cavalry that was a fighting horse, that is, a shock cavalry, and there were few people in the team with bows and arrows.

From the Genhei War to the Kamakura period, cavalry was mainly divided into archers who used cavalry and cavalry who used cold weapons such as swords (cold weapons such as swords, long knives, and spears were called "fighting things" in Japanese), but archers were the main force. However, after the Onin Rebellion, the power of the archers began to decline, and the object-fighting cavalry became the mainstream.

In the middle and late Warring States period, it was common for cavalry to dismount and charge, but archery on horseback could only be the exclusive skill of a small number of noble samurai. Not to mention that the advantages and disadvantages of Japanese bows and arrows were so prominent, at this time they had been completely replaced by iron cannons.

Seeing that all the comrades-in-arms around him have fallen, but he can't hit the enemy at all, this kind of psychological pressure is too great. Moreover, these Japanese feudal soldiers are not the BT devils of World War II, and their will to fight is far less firm than Zheng Zhilong imagined.

Just like the previous rout of their two wings of iron cannons, the cavalry troops were also quickly defeated, which made Zheng Zhilong a little unexpected. It's so fast, it's literally a touch of a button.

"Kill the Widows......"

"Kill the Widows......"

Zheng's musketeers roared with bayonets, although the heads of these would-be robbers were far less valuable than Tartars, but these would-be pirates were easy to kill.

In this battle, few of them have fallen so far, and they have already killed thousands of pirates, their reinforcements, or groups of cavalry.

The morale of the left-wing Zheng army has boiled to the top.

The battalion officer rushed to the front with a roar of his waist sword, and the musketeers behind him were really like a mighty torrent, sweeping away the Japanese troops on the opposite side.

Hosokawa Yukitaka looked angrily at the Japanese army that collapsed backwards, he yelled, he was angry, but it was useless at all.

"These stupid pigs, these cowards......"

At this time, the Japanese infantry only thought about escaping, and they had no fighting spirit to turn around and fight.

Hosokawa Xingxiao was helpless, and the defeat was like a mountain, and today he finally realized the meaning of this sentence. I also understand how difficult it is to turn the tide on the battlefield.

He could only turn the horse's head and go first.

But suddenly he sat down and his horse sank violently, and with a cry of pain, he fell to the ground.

Then he saw that one of his horse's legs had been broken, and it was really unfortunate that the horse's leg was broken by a stray bullet. What's even more unfortunate is that his leg was also injured in the process of Shicai's hard fall, and now it hurts terribly.

"I'm afraid it's broken......" Hosokawa thought sadly in his heart. What it meant to be so traumatized on a rout battlefield, he knew all too well.

But he won't surrender, he's a branch of the Kumamoto Domain, and he's the daimyo of the Hosokawa family's Uto Domain, so how can he surrender.

Hosokawa sat up with difficulty and drew his sword, but looked at the Zheng soldiers who were rushing in with blazing eyes.

Dense layers of bayonets flipped up, shining dazzlingly in the mild sunlight, and waves of Zheng soldiers rushed with shouts and guns.

As a high-level aristocrat in the era of peace, although Hosokawa Yukitaka still has some samurai spirit, his skills are far worse than those of the martial arts in the Warring States period. In the face of the bayonets of the Zheng soldiers, he didn't know how to parry at all, and the spear stabbing jungle in front of him had already pressed up,

A couple of deadly bayonets poked down! There are knives in the front and back, left and right, and Hosokawa Xingxiao can't dodge it at all, and he can't stop it!

He had no choice but to swing the knife desperately, trying to protect himself, but the sharp pain came from his waist, chest and thighs. The soldiers of Zheng Jun didn't care what the gorgeous armor on Hosokawa Yukitaka represented. As the bayonet was pulled out of his body, blood gushed out like a gushing spring, and his strength quickly dissipated.

Zheng Zhilong withdrew his gaze on the left flank, and turned to look at the front, where the Japanese army was already firing artillery. The artillery of the Zheng army was also firing, and puffs of smoke rose from the main fronts of both armies.

The large forces are also continuing to approach.

He could imagine the fuck in the heart of the Japanese commander on the other side at this time, too fucked up.

His side is engaged in battle with the enemy's main force, but the soldiers and horses on both wings have collapsed, and the precious cavalry invested in it is also finished......

Nabeshima Katsushige's face was as embarrassed as death.

If it were possible, he would be willing to trade his own death in exchange for the turn of defeat into victory in this war.

It's a pity that this is all delusional.

Zheng Zhilong sent a signal to accelerate the march - falling into the well, beating the water dog, and taking advantage of your illness to kill you, everyone understands this truth.

"Woo woo woo ......"

Zheng Jun's pace was obviously picking up, even if he was hit by the big Furlong cannon, blood and flesh were sprinkled on the ground, which could not touch them in the slightest.

But the morale of the Japanese troops on the opposite side was greatly lost.

Who can't see the defeat of the two wings? The situation is too unfavorable. Many people have the shadow of failure in their hearts. This is not just as simple as "taking a slap in the face and demoralizing".

Then the artillery bombardment, Zheng Jun could withstand the damage of the big Furlong machine guns, but the Japanese army, whose morale was greatly defeated, had already been confused in the bombardment of three-catty guns and five-catty guns.

A large iron ball roared and smashed, and once it was hit, it was all flesh and blood, and even the whole person could be shattered.

The miserable appearance of those companions beside him made the rest of the Japanese soldiers tremble with fear.

Although the Furlong cannon is faster to reload than the Hongyi cannon, it is also the most cautious to not close the child and mother guns together, and the fire will be greatly reduced.

These Japanese gunners were negligent in training on weekdays, and at this time they were in a panic, and they couldn't find a few who were qualified to load. The leakage of fire from multiple Furlong cannons is the most normal.

The ones who can take advantage are the Zheng soldiers.

Compared with the Hongyi cannon, a cannonball can trample out a flesh alley from the crowd, and the Fran cannon can hurt three or five people in a row.

What made the Japanese army even more unlucky was that a Furlong machine gun was directly hit by Zheng Jun's shells, and the cannon was hit and jumped up on the spot, killing and injuring several people, not to mention, and the gunpowder next to it was also ignited.

The loud noise not only killed and injured a large number of the approaching Japanese troops, but also alarmed the people on the two armies, and the morale of the Japanese army was even lower, while the fighting spirit of the Zheng army was even more excited.
