Chapter 241: One Person Can't Beat You, And A Group of People Can't Beat You?
Jialazhang Jingtorun paused slightly towards the huge position that had risen from the ground overnight to the north, and turned back to summon a man with a whip on his face and face, who was none other than the one who had fled yesterday.
After this generation fled, he traveled dozens of miles and was bumping into this army with red flags, and when he asked, Jiala Torren was furious, "The masters are all killed in battle, and you still have the face to live?" β
According to the military law of the Eight Banners, when the dozens of domestic slaves who were about to escape were all beheaded and displayed to the public, leaving this Yu Ding, who was relatively articulate and had a fairly clear mind, to lead the way.
He wanted to see what it was like to be able to defeat a Ming army with a white flag at one time. It may not be that the dogs of the white flag can't gnaw it, and my Baturu people with red flags can't gnaw it!
"You slave, you have to be optimistic, but this Ming army on the other side?"
That Yu Ding opened his eyes and carefully looked at the position on the opposite side, the flag, the momentum, and the many vehicles, mules, horses, and war horses gathered in the camp, he nodded, "Lord Tuo, it is the bright dog from yesterday, it is their ......"
"Okay, when you get here, your business is done, and you can go and serve your master! Come! β
Two white-armored soldiers leaped out from behind Jiala and intervened in salute to show that they were ready to be dispatched.
"Send him to his master!"
As the whimpering and shouting faded away and then came to an abrupt end, Tolun Gyala was in a much better mood, and called one of the generals of the Kala and pointed to the flag opposite and asked him, what were the Nikan banners written on them? Can you ever see which army it is and who is the general leading the troops?
The general stared at it for a long time. just shook his head and said, "On the banner, there are only words on the banner, such as the Daming Southern Army Qinwang Bing, and tribute." Also, there is a Li character written on the handsome flag. β
What is the Nanzhong army Qin Wang Bing, Tolun is not interested, what aroused his interest was the word tribute, and he wanted to send tribute to the Emperor of the Ming Kingdom, it should be all good things!
From the armor of the Ming soldiers who came and went and the neighing of mules and horses from the rear of the camp, Tolun Jiala judged that this group of Ming soldiers had a lot of oil and water on them! There were at least a thousand mules and horses. Hundreds of wagons of baggage and tribute. If I snatch this and go back and sacrifice it to the emperor, I don't know what kind of grace I can be rewarded?
At this time, the striker suddenly erupted in a burst of shouting and scolding.
In front of the positions of the South Central Army. Tamp into the earth with a one-man tall wooden pole. The corpses of the white-flagged Tartars who were killed yesterday were tied to wooden poles. The face is in the direction where the red flag came.
How can such a provocation be endured?!
"Buhe, please send a warrior from Niu Lu. I'm also sending people here, let's attack together, and we must take down this group of bright dogs in front of us! β
The Mongolian Armor of the Red Banner was also surprised and greedy at this time, and he didn't remember the lesson of the white flag yesterday, shouted a few words, and crossed out of the ranks, about the number of people in the ranks. Unlike the Jiannu descendants, the Mongol cattle were much smaller in number and armor.
And Tolun Jiala also pointed out a Dividing Paishku, leading a group of soldiers to follow behind this Mongolian Niulu, each holding a long knife and axe in his hand, and at least a layer of iron-inlaid cotton armor on his body, which was vaguely the main force and supervisor of this attack.
According to the experience of the white flag in exchange for a bull, the Tartar with the red flag knew that in the face of the Ming army in front of him, he must rush to the front in the shortest possible time, meet them with swords and guns, and break through their military formation. Otherwise, it's like a corpse hanging from a wooden pole.
They urged the horses under their crotches to gallop all the way towards the position of the Southern Central Army, and did not stop at a distance of one hundred and fifty paces like the white flag, but whipped the horse's buttocks fiercely. The dirt kicked up by the farrier turned into an earth dragon.
At a distance of about fifty paces from the first earthen wall, they held the reins.
There is a trench here that is intermittent and twisted, and at the end is a winding passage, which is the passage reserved by the Southern Chinese Army for itself, and about seven or eight horses can be paralleled at a time.
After a little sum of the two Mongol strengths, they urged the horses to rush in along the passage, and the black flag behind them led more than a dozen war horses to rush in with shouts.
The strong war horse had just rushed through the low wall, blocked by the low wall four feet high, and could only see the helmet and the black flag behind him, and the follow-up Tartars were ecstatic, waiting for the horses to follow up, when they broke through in one fell swoop, a sharp whistle suddenly sounded in their ears, and dozens of firefighters suddenly appeared near the entrance of the passage, firing fiercely at the growth and Tartars at the bend of the passage.
Side shot!
Inflict greater damage on the cavalry!
At a distance where the muzzle of the gun was fired at the person's body, and the heavy armor was like paper, several cavalrymen screamed and screamed, and their bodies were so spewed out several bloody arrows by the firearms, and they flipped off their horses. A few musketeers rushed forward and stabbed them twice, and when they saw that they were completely dead, they took their horses and threw the corpses into the trenches outside.
After this move, more than 200 musketeers wearing iron helmets appeared behind the first low wall, placing their muskets on the chest wall, aiming at the opposite Tartar and pulling the trigger!
The more than 3,000 refugees who sat on the embankment behind the embankment and were anxious could not help but turn pale when they heard the sound of firecrackers in their ears, and from time to time screams crossed the camp and reached their ears. If you can't hold it here, then there really is no way to live.
"It's time to eat!"
"The leaders of each team, come out and lead the brothers to line up for dinner!"
Dozens of men carrying large wooden barrels walked from the top of the embankment to the cooking cart with a smile on their faces.
"It's still the old rule, a bowl of broth per person, enough rice!"
The horses that had been killed yesterday were stewed in the barrel with spices and salt, and the aroma was so fragrant that the stomach could not help but scream.
While beckoning the captains of each team to receive the meal, put the dishes and chopsticks, and a man led by him shouted loudly, "After eating, each team will go to the baggage officer to get the salar salt and rice." Also, there will be people who are willing to carry the wounded and carry ammunition. You can go to the captain to sign up, and each person has enough meat and enough food to eat every day. The wage of five catties of rice a day and half a catty of salt! β
"This military master," said one of the ringleaders, with a smile on his face, "how is the fight up front?" β
The guy gave the man a disdainful look, "If you don't fight well, you still have time to eat meat?!" β
Wow!
Everyone suddenly woke up like a dream, as long as the front fight is good, what are we afraid of?!
Eat! When you're full, sign up and go to the front to carry the wounded and carry the ammunition! Five pounds of rice a day. Enough meat to eat. It's worth it!
The firecrackers leaned leisurely against the breastwork, stretched out their legs to bask in the sun, and some even took out cigarette pouches and lit a pot of cigarettes with fire folds. Pushing and giving in to each other. Smoking a cigarette.
In the trenches outside the breastwork, in the passages. Hundreds of corpses were left behind, both Mongols and Jiannu.
The red flag Mongolian armor Lazhang Jingbuhe looked at the corpse that had been left there. The eyes are sour, and the heart is sad. A guy who is a cow record basically plays! The establishment of the Mongolian Eight Banners is much smaller than that of the Jurchens, and there are fewer soldiers, this time, there are more than 100 people who were injured and fled, and there are also seventy or eighty people who were lost there, this loss is something he can't afford!
Thinking of this, he said loudly to ToruΕ: "Lord Jialazhangjing, this time we entered the customs, are we here to grab money and food or to damage the soldiers and horses in the army?" In doing so, I didn't see any benefits, and I lost so much Baturu! I have few people in the Qing Dynasty, even if I exchange my life with Nikan, I can't make it, not to mention that I don't see Nikan's loss at the moment, but we have lost more than 200 Batulu!. β
"Panic what! Where are the immortals in war! Benjia Lazhangjing's command also killed and injured more than 20 people! But it can also be seen that this group of Nanban is purely good at firearms, but they are more tenacious than other Nanban! In addition, it is no different from other Nanban! When our army rushes forward and breaks through their formation with spears, halberds, and axes, they will be crushed at the touch of a button! β
Tolun Zhangjing turned his face to look behind him, they came this time to worry that the Ming army would flee overnight after a successful blow, so they came lightly, except for the necessary, the rest of the baggage vehicles, of course, except for the looted property.
It's a pity that there are no siege equipment such as shield vehicles, otherwise, what is a mere firecracker!
He shouted a few times, and the Niu Lu Zhangjing under his command each led the team to spread out in front of the entire front.
According to the standard of armor, vest and white armor.
The infantry soldiers at least wore cotton armor inlaid with iron leaves, with thick copper nails nailed to the cotton armor, and a high red tasseled black helmet on their heads. The vest soldiers were even more dressed in two layers of heavy armor, holding spears and halberds in their hands, and immediately had a complete range of heavy short weapons such as iron bones, iron thistles, and flying axes, not to mention strong bows and arrows. According to Jialazhang Jing Tolun's idea, first use a rapid close-range cavalry shot to disrupt the Ming army in front of you, didn't you fire within forty paces? Okay, I'll only shoot up and down fifty paces, and when your army is scattered, I'll break the formation in one fell swoop.
Behind the vest soldiers were the two white-armored soldiers. They were better equipped than the Horse Armor soldiers. Not to mention that the whole body is carefully crafted iron armor, and several white-armored soldier leaders also have a Southern Barbarian cuirass, so they are wearing four layers of armor!
Behind the white-armored soldiers, there are more characters such as Yu Ding and Baoyi Ahha, who are also nervously packing up their horses, straightening out their cotton armor and knives and guns, and preparing to rush forward after the masters break through the military formation.
The horn sounded, and the two Dividing Dashku led their subordinates straight to the west of Hexiwu Town, shouting and scolding outside the town, urging the war horses to gallop back and forth outside the city, luring the city's artillery to open fire. The purpose was to consume the artillery fire in the city, so that they did not have the strength and courage to support the Ming army outside the city.
The effect of their luring of the enemy was obvious, and soon, the cannon roared in the city, and the officials in the city kept shouting, "Quick! Kombat ! Don't let the thieves storm the city! β
In the sound of this cannon, six of the division of the Pashku in front, leading more than 200 armor horses galloping wildly, behind them, is the same wave of offensive momentum, after the two groups of armor, there are four divided to the Pashku led by the horse armor soldiers, behind the horse armor soldiers are the white armor soldiers. Jiannu prepared to inflict huge casualties and psychological blows on the Nanzhong army with a dense rain of arrows outside the range of the firearms, and then hit the first chest wall with rapid movements.
"Rush forward, their firecrackers will be useless!"
All the Jiannu soldiers, Mongol soldiers, thought so.
Rushing to a distance of sixty paces from the breastwork, all the Tartars drew their bows and shot arrows. The power of the bow and arrow at this distance can break the armor, and Jiannu does not pursue any hundred steps to penetrate the Yang, as long as he can break the armor at close range. In other words, as long as the lethality is enough, the loss of accuracy and range is nothing!
A dense rain of arrows swept through the air, swishing and swishing. And the armor and the vest that had shot his temperament jumped off his horse, rushed to the edge of the trench, drew his bow and shot his arrow into the wall.
For a time, the first low wall was full of arrows. Clusters of arrows two inches long were fired into the earthen wall. The arrow shaft is still fierce, and there is a reluctant intention to burrow into the earthen wall.
"These Tartars are really fierce!"
Behind the breastwork behind the second trench, Huang Yishan and the fire gunners commanded Gao Liu, hiding behind the wall and whispering to Jiannu's cousin.
When ordering troops to advance from ToruΕ. The musketeers behind the first breastwork were covered by the loud noise of the Jiannu charge. Retreat behind the second breastwork. A low wall was left behind to attract the Jiannu's bows and arrows, depleting their bodies.
Didn't the lord say it, and shot arrows in circles around the camp. It is an old tactic of the Saiwaihu people for thousands of years. It started when Wei Qing went out of the fortress to fight against the Xiongnu. After so many years, everything has changed from its origin, you wait and see, it is time to stop soon, and their swords and guns should be connected! β
"That's it! It's time for the sons to dismount and fight! β
Jialazhang Jing Tolun was full of confidence, for a fishing and hunting people like the Jurchens, in fact, cavalry tactics were far inferior to infantry. It is described in "Seeing the New Strategy": "It is said that the slave is good at Tengshan and fights in a short battle. Horse soldiers are weak. Yeh horsemen were the toughest, and the infantry was weak. Therefore, the slave is afraid of the north ride, and the north is afraid of the slave step. Yehe White Sheep Bone said: 'I am afraid of slave steps, slaves are afraid of me to ride, strength is also resistant, and skills are also enemies.' Nearly fifty percent of the soldiers in the various cattle records of the Qing army are lightly armored archers, who are filled by infantry armor or auxiliary soldiers in the army, these people use arrows in long-distance combat, and use short weapons such as brand knives in close combat, and the main task is to provide long-range weapon support for the heavy armor soldiers in the process of impact, and continue to expand the results of the battle after the heavy armor breaks through the military formation. In addition to these people, they are the core backbone of Jiannu, the heavy armor soldiers, who are basically the elite vests and infantry armor in the army. These soldiers, whether in armor or vest, all have horses, and they are fully equipped with long and short weapons, and when they fight in formation, they all use spears. When the formation was attacking, the tragic firearms of the Ming army were simply difficult to stop, coupled with lax training and loose discipline, the combat awareness and killing skills were far inferior to those of Jiannu. Therefore, dismount and fight on foot, which can be described as invincible!
The heavy armored soldiers raised their spears in their hands, and under the leadership of the officers at all levels, such as the strong and divided the allocation of Shiku, they rushed towards the position of the Nanzhong Army in rows. The ten-foot-long eight-banner spear and the eight-foot-long tiger spear are all made of high-quality fine iron, the tip of the spear is bright, the group of guns is like a forest, shining with dazzling light, plus the heavy armor soldiers are all wearing double armor, and the thick body is covered with two layers of armor, giving people the feeling of an iron man, running rapidly, naturally overwhelming people in momentum and momentum.
Changing to the general Ming army, seeing such a charging momentum, it often quickly broke up after a little contact. Lord Tolun Zhangjing is already secretly calculating, after breaking through the military formation and seizing the goods, he naturally wants to give the so-called eight points to the masters, but the water is wet and the ground is wet, so he can pick and choose first. At least replace all the house slaves who followed the entry into the customs with those Nanban armor and Nanban swords and guns!
Seeing that the heavily armored pikemen had already rushed through the passage between the trench and the earthen wall, the second trench was next, and beyond this trench, and after passing another earthen wall, the tribute goods and the best weapons and armor were at their fingertips!
Suddenly, a brass horn sounded in his ears, and hundreds of pikemen were killed from behind the second earthen wall, each holding their spears and stabbing at the Jiannu heavy armor who were crossing the trench!
Only a dozen pikemen can stand on the narrow passage at the same time, but they have to face the swarming pikemen of the Nanzhong Army on the opposite side of dozens of trenches, and the spears of the Nanzhong Army are longer than the spears of Jiannu, and in this kind of thorn, it is the so-called one inch long and one inch stronger. What's more, to be prepared and unintentional? Originally, in the eyes of the Jiannu heavy armor, as long as they rushed in, the battle would be over, and they would be greeted with a relaxed slaughter and looting. However, the opposite side used the same sharp and dazzling spear to brutally end their dream.
The pikemen of the Southern Central Army, under the leadership of the first commander and the subordinate commander, 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 spearhead can pierce the double armor of the Jiannu heavy armor in a light yì, and many skilled gunners specialize in stabbing the throat and face of the heavy armor soldiers! 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 heavily armored pikemen of the Qing army on the opposite side.
Both sides entered a semi-frenzied state, frantically stabbing with spears, the shouts mixed with the muffled sound of the spear head piercing into the flesh, and the moans and cries of the wounded who fell to the ground.
One by one, the spears, like bloodthirsty monsters, devoured the lives of soldiers on both sides.
The pikemen of the Nanzhong Army, which cooperated with the tacit understanding, followed the earliest requirements of the Han Dynasty, a spear was stabbed head-on, and at least two spears were attacked from the left and right sides, while the spearmen of the Qing army had short guns and did not cooperate. Due to the limitations of the terrain, many of them still climbed up the trenches, and the heavily armored pikemen on the passages and the edge of the ditch almost always faced at least three or five pikemen alone.
In a narrow space, it is natural that whoever is fast and strong will be better to deal with the opponent before the opponent's spear stabs him!
Sometimes moving forward and sometimes retreating, the pikemen cooperated with each other to advance and retreat in a measured manner, killing the heavy armor soldiers with great grievances. In terms of technique and physique, at what age have you been trained in military affairs, and the heavy armor soldiers selected from each level are far better than the peasant-born pikemen, but one person can't beat you, and a group of people can't beat you?
