When they heard this, everyone was upset. King Ta Long frowned even more and asked, "What's the explanation?" ”
"Your Majesty, please look!" Tai Tai Tun knew that they would be unhappy, but he still pointed in the direction of the Ming army outside the city with his hand, and at the same time replied to King Talong, "Although the Ming army only has about 5,000 soldiers and horses in battle, there are all car battalions, cavalry, infantry and so on. The last general has seen that the cooperation between these arms of the Ming army is very tacit and very difficult to fight. On the other hand, the Kunda tribe, although there are many people, most of them are infantry troops. Although the shouting is loud, the formation is not neat, and the contrast between the two aspects can be said to be clear at a glance, so it ...... Therefore the end will ......"
"Fart, standing in a team can win the battle?" At this moment, Pindari finally found a sense of existence, and immediately scolded, "If this is the case, wouldn't it be too easy to fight, as long as you compare to see who stands neatly?" ”
Hearing this, the others couldn't help laughing, and the smiles on their faces were full of ridicule, looking at Tai Tai Tun very obviously.
For them, how is the war fought? It's the kind of people who see that there are many people over there, brave over there, shouting and rushing up, just like the vast majority of movies and TV series in later generations, regardless of domestic and overseas, after a war, they will rush up and fight chaotically.
However, King Ta Long had a gloomy face and did not laugh. He remembered that when he was young, he had heard his father say that he used to fight with the Ming army, and the elite Ming army fought in arrays. He had forgotten it before, but when he heard Tai Tai Tun mention it, he remembered this stubble.
At this time, he was actually a little curious in his heart. How powerful will the array battle be?
Thinking so, he didn't interject. lest he make a mistake when he says something, and it will damage the prestige of his king of caves!
Tai Tai Tun was ridiculed by them, but he was not angry, not because Shizi took the lead in laughing at him and could not refute it, but he believed that there would be facts that would happen soon, and that kind of refutation, a slap in the face was the most effective.
Seriously, at this time, he bowed his head and was silent, but in his heart was hope, it was best that Ming Jun would not let him down!
At this time, the two sides outside the city had already lined up. When the Kunda Department saw that the Ming army came out with only a small number of men, they couldn't help but have a big boost in morale. When the patriarch of the Nakunda tribe saw this, he immediately ordered an attack. Such a good opportunity to perform in front of the King of Donggo will definitely help the clan's status in Dongwu!
......Hearing the patriarch's order, the warriors of the Kunda tribe took the lead and charged the Ming army with a roar.
When the other Kunda tribesmen saw this, they all followed behind the warriors, brandishing their weapons and rushing forward.
All of a sudden, looking at the head of Ava City, it was like a tide slapping towards the Ming army's position, and the momentum was so great that it seemed to be able to submerge the Ming army's position in the blink of an eye.
"Okay, good, good ......" The military generals beside King Ta Long all applauded loudly when they saw this situation. Seeing this situation, they are full of enthusiasm, and they can't wait to go up and chop melons and vegetables, and kill the Ming army!
King Long secretly glanced at Tai Tai Tun, but found that Tai Tai Tun just happened to look back at him, and the two of them looked at each other, although they immediately turned away, but both of them knew that among all of them, I am afraid that the two of them were worried.
Emperor Chongzhen's side, of course, was also watching. Seeing a group of barbarians shouting and killing rushing over from all directions, a group of people were very calm. Among them, Zhou Yuji said enviously: "Cao Dashuai seems to be the first to become famous in Dongwu!" ”
"Hehe, he is the striker of the army, this first battle, we can't rob him!" Huang Degong heard this, and immediately replied to him with a smile.
When Emperor Chongzhen heard their conversation, he smiled and said, "Don't worry, this is just the beginning, and Qing and the others will have a chance to perform!" ”
With the emperor's words, Zhou Yuji and Huang Degong were both overjoyed, and hurriedly thanked them. Then, they didn't speak, just looked at the battlefield that was about to fight.
I saw that on the side of the Ming army participating in the battle, under the banner of the word "Cao", 5,000 soldiers of the Ming army formed a hollow phalanx. The car camp is at the front, and there is a gap between each side van that is more than one point wide.
On the side van, most of them are lightweight Franc cannons. The Hongyi cannon, on the other hand, has only two cannons. It's really that Dongwu's road is too bad, just transporting these two Hongyi cannons with the army has already cost a lot of effort, and there is really no more.
On the side van, the soldiers of the artillery battalion were already in full array, staring at the barbarians who were rushing wildly and motionless, obviously waiting for the military order to be issued.
Behind them were rows of flintlock musketeers and archers. Among them, the flintlock pismen were clearly in several rows in a row, ready to fire in turns. And the archers have already put their arrows on their bows, waiting to be pulled, and they are also waiting for military orders.
Behind these ranged classes were the hoplites, a tall and large weapon on the ground, either rows of spears, rows of double-edged knives, or maces covered in barbs. Of course, behind them, there are also other infantry units such as shield soldiers.
Finally, on both sides of the phalanx, there were about a thousand light cavalry, as well as a small number of heavy cavalry.
The men and horses of the Kunda tribe roared, rushing closer and closer, and rushing closer and closer......
However, on the side of the Ming army, there was still no movement, as if all the soldiers of this Ming army were mud bodhisattvas, motionless.
At the head of Ava City, many people cheered when they saw that the distance between the two sides was almost a stone's throw away.
"Kill, kill Minggou!"
"Minggou won't be scared stupid, it must be, so many people rushed over and were scared!"
“……”
Compared with their optimism, some generals with actual combat experience were speechless one by one. They thought to themselves that none of the soldiers and horses they had brought with them, or the most elite ones they had ever seen, could not be so motionless under such circumstances.
Who doesn't have fear? At least they felt that they couldn't be so calm under this kind of charge of the enemy!
In other words, this Ming army is definitely very elite.
Thinking like this, they were a little curious in their hearts, even if the troops were elite, in the face of so many enemy attacks, what kind of performance would the Ming army have!
In their hearts, the hearts of many people were raised. I don't know why, at this time, they don't know it, that heart is worried about the Ming army, looking forward to it.
Suddenly, the situation on the battlefield changed dramatically.
I saw that puffs of gunpowder suddenly came out of thin air on the side of the Ming army's position, and then I saw that among the men and horses of the Kunda tribe in the charge, there were blood ditches.
It wasn't until this time that the sound of "boom, boom......, boom" came from their ears.
The artillery of the Ming army, the Dongwu tribe naturally knows about it. Many people have also seen artillery firing and already have expectations in their hearts.
Therefore, when the Ming army opened fire, except for some of the people of the Kunda tribe in the back, when they saw that their companions were smashed apart by iron bullets, leaving a broken arm and stump on the ground, and blood all over the ground, they were all stunned, and involuntarily stood on their feet.
And the part that rushed to the front, the warriors of the Kunda tribe, most of them, all ignored the firing of the Ming artillery, and were still roaring and charging.
They knew very well in their hearts that there was an interval after the artillery was fired, as long as they ran fast and rushed over in time, the artillery of the Ming army would be useless, and it was time for them to slaughter the gunners of the Ming army!
However, after they had only run a few feet away, they saw a companion next to them "bang", and they were hit by an iron bullet and did not look human. Then, the sound of "boom boom" was heard.
At this moment, some of them were stunned: What is the situation? How could the artillery of the Ming army open fire so quickly?
The charge has begun, and the Ming army is already close at hand. Although I don't understand why the artillery of the Ming army fired so quickly, they were still charging "whooping".
At the head of Ava City, I saw that the artillery of the Ming army had ploughed out blood ditches one after another, but on the side of the Kunda tribe, most of the people continued to charge. Many people have to sigh.
"See, the fame of the Kunda tribe is not for nothing."
"That's, if you want me to say, there are so many warriors in the Kunda tribe, and in our Dongwu tribe, at least they can be ranked in the top three!"
"Haha, I'm about to rush into the Ming army, what kind of bird formation are they arranged, and what's the use!"
"Yes, the Ming artillery actually doesn't look scary, in fact, one cannon can only kill a few. Now that the two armies are so far apart in numbers, what if they kill some with artillery bombardment? ”
“……”
As they were talking, the cannon sound of the Ming army continued, but the people of the Kunda tribe, who had rushed to the Ming army less than fifteen or sixteen zhang away, suddenly fell to the ground like paper paste, and their whole flesh and blood fell to the ground in a blur. It's not just one, two, but one piece after another.
Suddenly, there was silence at the head of Ava City, and everyone was stupid.
Obviously, the Ming army's Fran cannons, the last few of the Zigong, are all loaded with scattered bullets, so if they are blasted out, they are all real bullet rain, how can the flesh and blood in front of them be able to resist it?
After such a blast, the sound of the cannon fell silent.
On the Kunda tribe's side, it was their bravest warriors who rushed to the forefront, and most of them had already been reimbursed. Behind them were the second-class warriors. Seeing such a large area of dead people in front of him, and they were still in a very miserable state, he either stopped or charged, and involuntarily slowed down.
At this moment, I saw rows of Ming soldiers striding out of the interval between the vans, and then began to shoot in rows of guns. As for the archers, they filled in on the omissions of the flintlock musketeers and began their performances.
