Chapter 474: Game 4: Zhenglan Banner wants to pick up the bargain?

For a time, the shape between the two armies of the Ming and Qing dynasties reversed, and the Ming army, which had bombarded the opponent from afar with firearms, now dared to use a big sword and spear, and pounced on the Qing army that had been bombarding with them with firearms for a long time.

The pikemen of the Model Brigade were in front and stabbed to death several rattan players guarding the various squads, killing a bloody path and turning the squads of thirty into a mess of ducks.

The pikemen of the Model Brigade, under the leadership of their respective commanders and subordinate commanders, stood in groups of three or five, side by side, close together, without thinking about their flanks, just devoting all their strength to one action, advancing and stabbing! The five-foot-long funeral gun head has long been proven in actual combat, and can pierce the double armor of Jiannu's heavy armor in a light yì, and many skilled gunners specifically aim at the throat and face of the firecrackers! Rows of spears continued to stab out, and then retracted, and then stabbed out, and then retracted, and the repetition of each action reaped the life of the two white flag-clad firearms on the opposite side.

These pikemen are all recruited in Sichuan, and the soldiers and horses who have been trained in the battles with Zhang Xianzhong, Luo Rucai and the Thirteen Shake Huang families, often dozens of pikemen can drive thousands of Sichuan Tukou, poles and other local armed forces known as earth leopards to flee in all directions.

In the blink of an eye, three or four Niu Lu's clothed soldiers were scattered by the conflict. The pikemen simply rushed forward with their spears, breaking through the formations as if they were in a no-man's land. Here are the blood flowers and the screams; And then the swoops came those sword and shield soldiers with four-foot long knives in one hand and shields in the other, their seniority and personal skills in the army were even greater than those of the pikemen, and the same two or three men fought together, cutting the scattered musketeers into two pieces.

"! Can the battle still be fought like this?! ”

Wu Sangui slammed the horse lance in his hand to the ground to vent the depression in his chest.

Not far away, the ten Niu Lu commanded by Dolgon, the six closest to the Model Brigade had been defeated, and the two white flag soldiers who were still shooting at the Model Brigade with their firearms just now. Crying and screaming, scurrying around the battlefield like headless flies. Trying to find a way out.

There are also those who are more nimble in their hands and feet and have a more flexible mind, and when they see that the situation is not good, they immediately put the sleeve spur on the barrel, and three or five people form a formation. Prepare to fight for the lives of the pikemen who rush to kill.

But. An inch long and an inch strong. Even if the fire gun is equipped with a spear, it is still a cut shorter than the spear, and these soldiers and horses with two white flags are often stabbed to death by the spear in one face. The small teams that supported each other immediately broke up and became the target of the next group to be slaughtered.

"Good! Rush up! Completely mess up the team of Jiannu to Lao Tzu! Scattering 1 "Wu Biao saw that the pikemen and sword and shield soldiers were constantly rushing towards the two white flag teams, and the cattle were scattered one by one, and he couldn't help but be very excited, and danced on the horse.

The speed of change on the battlefield was very amazing, and before Wu Biao's laughter landed, there was also a change in the two white flag formations over there.

At this moment, the four Niu Lu, who were the farthest away from the Model Brigade, quickly gathered in front of Dolgon's Bayara army formation in the sound of Cao Zhenyan's horn, one to protect the master, and the other to form a formation to prepare for the attack.

The team of more than 1,000 people was also lined up in two columns, half squatting in the front and standing upright in the back, holding the fire gun in their hands, and the thorns at the mouth of the gun were shining. The rattan player and the pikeman each held their swords and spears on the flanks of the musketeers, ready to attack at any time.

Dolgon's eyes were half-open and half-closed, staring at the clad firecrackers who were crying and running from far and near. Fortunately, although they were dispersed, this group of minions still remembered the military discipline that the entire team of those who gave up their weapons were killed, and although they fled and even lost their shoes, the weapons and firearms in their hands were still firmly grasped in their hands.

In front of them, only three or five steps behind this group of guys were the chasing and killing model brigade commander spearmen.

The wave of defeated troops has rushed into the best range of the firearms. Forty steps, thirty steps, twenty steps.

Cao Zhenyan saw the look on Dolgon's face, and suddenly waved the order flag in his hand, and the more than 700 firecrackers immediately pulled away the dragon head and aimed forward.

"Front! Fire! ”

The first column of firearms struck over, and the coats who were hurrying towards Dolgon's large array were immediately knocked to the ground. The screams and blood suddenly sobered up the other defeated soldiers, and at this time, they must not go straight to the master's big array, but go around to the back!

"Second column, fire!"

The firearms in the back row were all greeted by the soldiers of the Model Brigade who came with guns, although they were sparsely formed, but they also knocked over more than 20 pikemen, making the stormtrooper formation a little stagnant!

Taking advantage of this short moment, with the continuous waving of the golden dragon banner representing Prince Rui in Cao Zhenyan's hand, the rattan players and pikemen in the Wrapped Cow Lu shouted in unison and slaughtered from both wings.

In an instant, the two armies returned to their original state of fighting, using all swords and guns.

As we said before, the equipment of the Model Brigade does not have any advantage over the Clothed Soldiers, and their advantage is discipline and training, while the Clothed Soldiers are not suitable for the most frank and enthusiastic communication with knives and guns after this firearms battle.

"Master! Let me take my minions and teach this group of bright dogs a lesson! ”

In his opinion, those short, black and thin soldiers of the Southern Barbarian Army, in front of the elite Bayara soldiers under his command, were afraid that they might not be able to walk down in a single round, and they would be cut into seven or eight pieces.

"Wait a minute! The main force of this group of barbarians has not yet been pressed! ”

Dolgon could clearly see that nearly a third of the troops in the large formation of the Model Brigade had not been used, and those must have been the most elite parts of the Model Brigade. On both sides, Wu Sangui's cavalry was still eyeing there, and if he rashly threw his Bayala soldiers into it at this time, he was afraid that he would be deep in the mud.

He's not in a hurry, but someone is in a hurry.

The thunderous sound of horses' hooves suddenly sounded behind the battlefield. Thousands of cavalry flocked out of the Qing army camp at the foot of Rufeng Mountain, and there were more than ten Niu Lu flags in the team alone!

"The thief's blue flag! The troops of the slave chief Huang Taiji's son Hukou! ”

In front of the camp of the Ming army, the generals were surprised and delighted.

Today's battle can be described as wonderful.

First of all, Kong Youde, Geng Zhongming, Shang Kexi and others who rebelled against the slaves fought against Wu Biao, and then the Baya soldiers of the two yellow flags fought against Wu Sangui's cavalry, and just now the two white flags fought against Wu Biao, and now Haoge's Manchurian cavalry of the Blue Banner has been put into the battlefield again!

"Which general is going to pick up the two generals of Wu and withdraw their men?"

Hong Chengchou also saw the Blue Banner cavalry galloping like a thunderous tiger, he looked at the surrounding generals and deputy generals, hoping that someone could volunteer to pick up Wu Sangui and Wu Biao. After all, these two officers and armies have fought several battles. Able not to fall behind. It was already beyond his expectations.

Ma Ke Tangtong, Wang courtier, Bai Guangen, Zuo Guangxian and others immediately avoided the sight of the Supervisor, lest they be ordered by the Supervisor.

It was Yang Guozhu, the chief soldier of Xuanfu Town, whose eyes were full of eagerness, and took a step forward and stood up. Bow with both hands crossed. was about to ask Hong Chengchou for battle. But I heard bursts of exclamations from the Ming army!

The generals didn't care about talking, they just turned their attention to the battlefield! But it turned out that Wu Biao was a black and thin Guangdong barbarian. Once again, it was a big surprise for everyone!

Seeing that about two Jiala's Zhenglan Banners rushed out of the camp and went straight to the battlefield, without waiting for Wu Sangui's cavalry to dispatch, Wu Biao had already waved his sword and roared, leading the seven or eight hundred horsemen under his command to ride crookedly, and they could only barely be regarded as the soldiers of the horse team who swooped down on the route of the Manchurian cavalry of the Zhenglan Banner!

"Master! Let's rush up too! ”

Dolgon's side, Baya Lajangjing, was a little impatient, and he was worried that as soon as the group of dog thieves who had come to pick up the bargains and steal the credit arrived, they would take all the credit for the battle.

However, this Baya Laxu Zhangjing, who had not participated in the Battle of Changqing, did not see a strange smile on the corner of Dolgon's mouth.

Just as when Wu Biao saw the two white flags lined up in a formation of Fuhu to open the mountain just now, Dolgon also saw a familiar formation in shock.

The cavalry of the Model Brigade, less than 800 men, was arranged in three columns, with spears in the front and sabers in the back. The weapons in his hands are not enough, the key is that these horse teams riding crookedly and crookedly, the formation of people and horses against horses, he Rui Prince Dolgon had already understood the power of this formation as early as the Changqing Dynasty, and after several years of meditation, he couldn't find a way to crack this formation.

Now, in order to show his ability and come out to take advantage, Hauge, a fool, jumped into this fire pit by himself, and he was also charged with disobeying military orders and sending troops without authorization, didn't this make Dorgon happy to see it happen?

"Nope! Our men slowly retreated, making room for the men and horses of the Blue Banner to show their talents! ”

In the midst of everyone's regret and lamentation, Dolgon's heart was full of smug joy, gathered his men, withdrew his troops to the foot of Rufeng Mountain, and coldly watched the fate of Hauge's two armored cavalry.

"It's over! Prince Su's two Jiala are over! In the stone city on the mountain, Du Du looked at the two cavalry teams that were getting closer and closer under the mountain, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart, but a burst of schadenfreude arose: "Your father and son have suppressed others strongly, and today we will see how you end up in front of everyone!" ”

The sun gradually turned overhead, spreading the sun evenly on this battlefield full of flesh and blood, and the commanders on the east and west sides were watching the desperate fight of the two cavalry with a mood of excitement, nervousness, and anticipation.

When the two armies were less than a mile apart, the Manchurian cavalry of the Zhenglan Banner collectively added a whip to the horse's buttocks, and the horse's speed increased. As the speed stretched, the horse's suzhì and rank were revealed, and the distance quickly widened. The front and back and left and right spread out more. Looking from the direction of the Ming army, it gives people a feeling. It seemed that the mountains and fields in front were full of Jiannu cavalry, black and full of horses and human heads, in addition to bursts of savage and cheerful howls, there was also a cloud-like banner, which was desperately torn by the north wind.

The two iron horse torrents that were moving in the opposite direction collided head-on, and in an instant, countless blood flowers were splashed!

The distance between the horses of the Model Brigade was almost always about one meter apart. More than 100 war horses rushed in the first column, and opened a front more than 100 meters wide.

At first, the horses walked forward slowly in small steps, and then gradually turned into a jog.

With the gradual acceleration of the horse team. The whole row gradually became larger and larger, but the distance between the horses was still controlled within two meters.

The huge platoon was still stretched into a horizontal row and rushed over, crushing and impacting the remnants of the Tartars who were running around on foot, and from time to time someone was knocked to the ground by the jogging war horse, and then trampled into death by the horses behind.

"Iron Float!?"

Rao is Huang Taiji spent almost his whole life in battle, and when he was young, he was on the horse every night, but he only heard in the legend that the Jurchen Jin Dynasty had such a cavalry team to collide with the enemy's cavalry. All the enemies encountered were invincible. Originally, I thought it was just a legend. I don't want to let myself be encountered on the battlefield of this decisive battle today.

Unlike the sharp and arrow formations that the Jiannu and Mongol cavalry were accustomed to, this formation like a wall and a mountain allowed the Tartars who were accustomed to fighting with the enemy on horses and engaging in martial arts on horses. Confused. No one fights with you. Just rush through in rows!

In the eyes of the Blue Banner Cavalry. The cavalry in front of them was unlike any cavalry they had encountered before. In the past, what they encountered was a battle between cavalry and cavalry individuals, but here. But they felt that they were fighting against almost all the cavalry on the opposite side!

First of all, a column rushed towards them, all of them were holding spears in their hands, and the holsters on the spears were put on their bodies, and the riders held the reins of their horses with one hand, and the spears were tightly clamped under their armpits and shoulders with their right hands, and they swooped down on the cavalry with the blue flag. This line of guns will disperse the queue of the positive blue flag!

In the earth-shattering sound of horses' hooves, the first column of cavalry marching like a wall like a farmer's hand wielding a sickle to harvest rice and wheat, knocked over many Tartar soldiers, not to mention, the dense spears also caused the slave horsemen who were lucky enough to rush through the formation to be either killed or wounded, and occasionally retreated, they had to face the cavalry formation that came like a spinning cart in the rear.

Before the cavalry could reorganize their formation a little, the cavalry of the second column rushed towards them like a mountain of moving knives. The cavalrymen of the Blue Banner were about to muster up their courage and use the weapons in their hands to give the opposite group of guys who were riding short war horses not much bigger than dogs a little color, but after a muffled sound and a miserable scream, they were knocked down head-on by a team of horses less than one meter and a half apart, and were stopped by the sabers in the hands of the cavalry and cut a huge hole in the body, blue and purple intestines. The dark red entrails flowed silently to the ground, and then were trampled into mud by the war horses.

A bull Lu Zhangjing tiger, who usually prides himself on bravery, roared, waved the long-handled tiger tooth knife in his hand and rode his horse to meet it, and the two house slaves behind him, who were also wearing two layers of armor, each wielded a birch iron sickle and urged the horse to follow.

The seven or eight cavalrymen on the opposite side noticed that this person was a figure from his armor, war horses, domestic slaves, etc., and they rode their horses to meet him with the same shout.

The sword flashed, and the saber in the hand of a cavalryman came quickly towards Niu Lu Zhangjing, he seemed to have felt the sharpness of the blade, at this moment of life and death, the skillful Niu Lu Zhangjing immediately leaned back, and the whole body was attached to the horse's back, seeing that the knife was swept over from the front door with the sound of the wind, and the ears heard the shouting and scolding of the riders when they fought each other, the roar of the war horses when they hit each other, and the screams and screams when they were knocked to the ground.

He had just gotten up from his saddle, and before he could rejoice that he had escaped once, another column of cavalry was rolling on the opposite side. The huge figure of the war horse is getting bigger and bigger in his eyes.

In a short period of time, the model brigade of horses, which was inferior in skill and only had a saber in their hands, but maintained a dense array, roared like a giant hammer, smashing through the multi-layered slave cavalry queue one after another, knocking them to the ground piece by piece, and the sparse array of Tartars could not resist their charge at all.

Seeing such a scene, the 800 horse team of nearly 3,000 cavalry with the blue flag scattered in formation, and when they saw such a scene, they couldn't help but salivate and move their index fingers to watch the formation in the rear. At this time, if they don't go up to check the cheapness, then they will really be sorry for the title of chief soldier and deputy general. Without waiting for Yang Guozhu's request to fight to be approved by Inspector Hong, Ma Ke, Tang Tong, Bai Guangen, Wang Pu and others asked for orders to fight together, and they wanted to beat the water dogs.

However, Wu Sangui on the battlefield reacted faster.

When the cavalry of the third column of the model brigade rushed up, he was pleasantly surprised to find that this group of guys who could only be regarded as riding horses were able to kill the elite of the Zhenglan Banner on their backs.

He controlled the reins in one hand, held a horse lance in the other, and led a few henchmen, and increased the speed of the war horse to the extreme in front of his own army, and only heard the sound of the wind blowing in his ears along the way, and in the corner of his eye, he could see the black cloak blown by the wind like a sail.

Riding his horse and rushing to the front of the formation, Wu Sangui jerked the reins hard, and the war horse under his crotch let out a long neigh, and his mount almost tilted back into the air with four hooves. Wu Sangui strangled the horse's reins with one hand, and pointed the horse's lance obliquely to the sky with the other hand, adding a dancing cloak, a majestic posture of a prancing horse and a spear.

"Ning Yuanjun!"

"Mighty!"

Wu Sangui's family team also heard a cry like thunder.

"Ning Yuanjun!"

"Mighty!"

"Kill slaves, children!"

In the cheers of more than 1,000 family members, Wu Sangui's eyes widened, and the horse lance in his hand pointed to the panicked blue flag cavalry opposite, and shouted excitedly.

"Kill slaves!"

One horse took the lead, carrying a horse lance and rushing in front, and the all-black Wu Sangui family Ding cavalry rushed out with him, and the sound of hooves rolled and roared like thunder.

"Kill slaves!"

The black cavalry roared forward with an unstoppable momentum like a torrent of metal, and the earth seemed to tremble under the knock of thousands of iron hooves. (To be continued......)
