Chapter 179: Manchurian Bayala

So many people were huddled together, seeing that there was no way to escape, and the pursuers were about to kill in front, and the green battalion soldiers who were left behind dropped their weapons and knelt down in surrender, except for those who were trampled to death by the full horseman.

There are four teams of Ming troops rushing out from behind several mountain passes, in fact, there are only 2,000 people in total, and at a glance the black pressure on the mountain road is all the Qing army, and it was still a little uneasy, seeing the green battalion soldiers kneeling and begging for mercy under the fire of the begging army in front, they all increased their confidence and rushed towards the mountain road with cheers.

Li Dingguo, the king of Jin, was also very excited, and after wielding a knife to kill three Qing soldiers who wanted to resist, he raised his knife and shouted: "Those who surrender will not die, and those who surrender will not die!" ”

"Those who descend will not die, and those who descend will not die!"

The rest of the Ming army also shouted in the same way, and suddenly hundreds of green battalion soldiers surrendered on their knees.

After seeing that the Ming army really did not kill those comrades who surrendered on their knees, more of the green battalion soldiers had lost their fighting spirit, except for the thousands of people who ran at the front, most of the rest dropped their weapons and surrendered.

Seeing this, Li Dingguo was worried that these soldiers would rebel, so he hurriedly beckoned his subordinates to send hundreds of people to watch these surrendered troops, and sent a team of people to dismount and collect the weapons at hand of these surrendered soldiers.

For the sake of prudence, Lin Xiao also ordered He Shouxin to leave a platoon of soldiers to help watch these surrendered soldiers, and he personally took the remaining dozens of people, along with the more than 300 people led by Ni Zhaolong, the general of Li Dingguo's department, to continue to ride forward on horseback.

Under the coercion of hundreds of full horses, Xia Guoxiang, who was taking the lead in escaping with his own soldiers in a panic, saw that the general trend had gone, and saw that the Ming army was rushing forward over the kneeling ground and descending troops, so he hurriedly and desperately whipped his horsewhip and ran forward desperately.

"Catch the big official of the Tartars, catch the big officials of the Tartars!"

With more than a dozen soldiers, Yu Cheng, who had just rushed down from the hillside in front, saw several Qing army generals who looked like officers running in front with dozens of people, and Yu Cheng, who was eager to make meritorious contributions, rushed over with his subordinates.

"Stop them! Stop them! ”

Xia Guoxiang saw that no one dared to turn back to fight behind him, so he shouted helplessly to his own soldiers.

As a pro-soldier, he originally had the idea of sacrificing himself to protect the Lord, usually eating and drinking, if he did not obey the general's order at the critical moment, it would be a death, so he turned his horse and looked at the hillside, and saw that the number of the nearest Ming army was less than 20 people, and these people were born with a desperate will to survive, and they all roared and waved their knives to meet them.

The actions of these people woke up the other group of people who were burying their heads in the run.

This group of people was the personal soldier of the defeated protector Taklan Hackland, and there were more than 100 people.

After Hacklan was shot in the head, the soldiers who had lost their backbone were panicked, and even the corpse of the master did not dare to restrain and fled from the small stone hill, and they were gathering together at a loss, seeing the cavalry in front of them retreating, and Xia Guoxiang took the lead in escaping behind, so they also ran in a daze.

At present, they saw that Xia Guoxiang's personal soldiers had returned to fight, so they also stopped on the side of the road, and after watching for a while, they immediately rushed towards the hillside under the command of several officers.

These people were also frightened just now, and after gradually coming back to their senses, they realized that the main general was dead, and even if they ran back, they were afraid that they would be dead, so it was better to fight to the death together, maybe they could cut off a few more heads and accidentally get a way to live.

This team of personal soldiers is very different from Xia Guoxiang's personal soldiers, they are authentic Manchurian white-armored soldiers.

Compared with the Ming army of this era, each Manchurian Eight Banners is already very powerful, and the selected Bayala is selected from these powerful Manchurian soldiers, selected from these powerful Manchurian soldiers, selected out, is the most elite soldier in the Qing army, mainly responsible for guarding, supervising the war, or outpost reconnaissance tasks, it can be said that it is equivalent to the special forces of later generations.

And each banner under the jurisdiction, generally there are five to eight Jiala, more than 20 to more than 40 Niu Lu, so each banner has more than 200 Bayala soldiers, the most is only 6 or 700 people, so the protection of the army is under the command of the two Jiala led by the three thousand eight banners, only more than 100 Bayala, all of them are brought with them as personal guards.

Although the number of Bayalas was small, they were very powerful, all of them wore silver-white three-layer armor, silver iron helmets on their heads, long tails and red tassels on their helmets, a herald-colored flag diagonally inserted on their backs, and even the war horses were covered with cotton armor, and they all had a horse chopping knife in their hands, and everyone had a strong bow on their backs.

They are all good at riding and shooting, with the ability to penetrate Yang in 100 steps, using a four-stone hard bow with a production cycle of up to three years, this kind of hard bow is stronger than the compound recurve bow of ordinary cavalry, the strongest range can exceed 100 steps, and within 50 steps, it can even shoot through the heart goggles of the Ming armor worn by the Ming army generals, and can shoot farther without caring about the accuracy of the projectile.

The horse chopping knives in their hands are also made of fine iron, which is about the same sharpness as the mountain opening knife, but the horse chopping knife is longer, and it can be cut when the cavalry charges on a large scale, and it is full of strength and power.

Seeing that dozens of Xia Guoxiang's soldiers were all killing more than a dozen Ming troops who were running down the hillside, they were not willing to follow and eat fart, but rushed straight towards the hundreds of Ming army ambushes that turned out behind another mountain pass a little fart.

The total number of ambush soldiers who turned out of the back of the mountain was as many as 500 people, but because the mountain was too dangerous, the mountain pass only allowed one person to pass, and only half of them rushed out at the moment, and those who were blocked behind the mountain pass could only wait anxiously in line, and those who were anxious simply climbed up the mountainside and waved their flags and shouted.

Although these soldiers of the Great Western Army are also veterans, they are all foot soldiers without war horses, and they are not armored, and the knives and guns in their hands are not as sharp as Bayala's horse chopping knives.

The hundred household officers who led the team saw the sudden change in the situation, so many people couldn't stop the other party's hundreds of white-armored soldiers, although they bravely stepped forward and personally cut down the two horses, but they couldn't stop the retreat of their subordinates, and they were almost cut by a white-armored soldier, and they had to retreat again and again in panic......

The situation on the other side is just the opposite, although Yu Cheng brought less than twenty special combat team members, but how can Xia Guoxiang's dozens of personal soldiers be able to stop them, immediately a burst of strafing they were all over the place, only a dozen or so of them saw that the situation was not good and quickly turned back to beat the horse and fled back to the mountain road, Yu Cheng could not see the battlefield on the other side of the forest, so he did not find that the situation here was tight, and he took care of beckoning the soldiers to stop some ownerless war horses, and chased Xia Guoxiang all the way.

Lin Xiao, who was riding a horse to lead the troops in pursuit in the distance, noticed the situation in front of him, and saw that a group of ambush soldiers could not resist the enemy, so he immediately waved his hand and rode forward with more than 20 soldiers and went straight to the side of the road.
