Chapter 135: Forceful
Historically, large-scale cavalry charges have been so magnificent and terrifying! Cavalry has always been the king of war in the age of cold weapons!
"Kill"
The wind was galloping, the hooves of the war horses aroused the snow on the ground, the Mongolian warriors on horseback waved their scimitars, and the 10,000 Mongolian iron horsemen rushed towards the 15,000 Ying Long army with the momentum that seemed to tear everything apart.
Because the Ying Long army used muskets, considering that the musket bullets did not have long eyes, as well as the huge power, the Mongolian Belle did not take the lead, but fell in the middle of the army, and planned to wait for all the muskets in the hands of Ying Long's army to be fired, and then go up in person to kill a few Ming soldiers Shu Shu's bones.
Thinking that the heads of the Ming soldiers would roll to the ground under their scimitars, a cruel sneer appeared on Mongol Beyler's face.
Similarly, Ji Feng stared at the ten thousand Mongolian iron horsemen who were charging fiercely towards them in front of him, and the corners of his mouth hooked up a cold smile.
The Mongol cavalry rushed closer and closer, 400 meters, 300 meters, 200 meters, and some Mongols began to put their wielding scimitars into their scabbards, quickly took off the bows and arrows hanging from the side of their horses, drew their arrows, and prepared to bend their bows and arrows.
If Yinglong's military is still an arquebus, with the afterburner of the Mongols on horseback, the bow and arrow may really have a longer range than the arquebus, but now the Yinglong military is a flintlock pistol made of alloy steel that is twice as strong as 100 steel, with a range of more than 200 meters and an effective lethality of about 150 meters, which is much farther than the bow and arrow, which is doomed to the tragedy of the Mongols.
Seeing that the Mongols had already entered the firing range, the generals of the Ying Long Army immediately gave an order.
"First column fire!"
"Bang Bang Bang"
White smoke billowed out, 5,000 rounds of lead bullets in the front of the Mongolian iron cavalry with a bewitching blood flower, hit the Mongolian iron cavalry on their backs, hundreds of Mongolian soldiers fell to their deaths, this scene is very shocking, although many of the Mongolian people behind are pale, showing fear, but driven by self-esteem or gritted their teeth and continued to rush forward to kill.
"The second column fires!"
"Bang Bang Bang"
"The third column fires!"
"Bang Bang Bang"
"Ahh
Mongolian Belle was dripping blood in his heart, he never thought that the Ming army divided into three columns did not fire together, but fired one row after another, it was only a dozen breaths of time, after the three columns of the Ming army all fired, his 10,000 iron cavalry lost nearly two layers! It's hateful!
But that's about it! The muskets of the Ming army had all been fired, and it was their turn to slaughter. Mongolian Baylor's eyes were full of murderous intent.
"Kill"
Many of the Mongol generals thought the same as the Mongol Beyler, and they rushed to kill in anger, and these Mongol generals who were supposed to be the first to take the lead fell in the middle because they were afraid of muskets, but at this moment, driven by anger, they quickly rushed to the front.
"Ming dog! Come on! About a hundred meters away from the Ying Long army, a Mongolian general had a hideous face, as long as they had less than four breaths, they could kill into the formation of the Ming army, and then it would be a one-sided slaughter.
"Hey, hey!" Ji Feng smiled, at this time, the first row of Ying Longjun, who had originally retreated to the back after firing, had already finished loading.
"Fire!"
"Bang Bang Bang !!"
After two rounds of 5,000 buckshots, the Mongols were once again cleared to a distance of 150 meters, and thousands of Mongol soldiers were killed and fell from their horses, including many Mongol generals who rushed forward in anger.
"Impossible!" The Mongolian Baylor's eyes were split, and he couldn't believe how the Ming army could have been bombed so quickly.
When hundreds of Mongols rushed to a distance of about 100 meters away from Ying Long's army again, another row of Ying Long's soldiers finished loading their guns and pointed their guns forward!
"Yu!" Many Mongols were so frightened that they hurried to rein in their horses, including the Mongol Beyler, but it was too late.
Five thousand buckshot came again, and again hundreds of Mongol soldiers fell from their horses and died. Mongol Belle stared ahead in horror, if it weren't for the two soldiers who desperately used their bodies to help him block the lead bullet just now, he would have already been plugged.
This group of Ming troops is too evil! Not at all! Mongolian Baylor didn't say a word, quickly turned the horse's head, turned around and ran away, but the war horse he sat on didn't run a few dozen steps before it also fell, and Mongolian Baylor rolled to the ground. It turned out that his war horse was also shot three times in the neck, three holes were punched, and blood flowed in pools, and he couldn't hold it after only running a few dozen steps, and fell to the ground.
Mongol Belle was extremely frightened, and after getting up from the ground, he turned over an intact war horse and fled backwards without looking back. The other Mongolian cavalry saw that Belle had fled, and in terror, the remaining thousands of Mongolian iron cavalry were all routed and fled towards the Qing army camp thousands of kilometers away.
"Bullet! Put away the guns! Burn the wind! Ji Feng calmly ordered.
After all the soldiers of the Ying Long Army finished loading, they quickly rushed forward. When the Mongols fled back to the Qing army camp, Ying Long's army also came to a distance of only about six or seven hundred meters from the Qing army camp, and was still approaching quickly.
"Huh! Hahahaha! God help me! When he saw that the tents in the Qing army camp in front of him had been put away, Ji Feng's eyes lit up, and then he laughed ferociously.
It turned out that Azig felt that Tai'an would be broken today, and the army was about to enter the city, and then he directly took advantage of the situation to go south to take Jining City, the last city in Shandong, in one fell swoop, so the tents of the large battalion were naturally unnecessary, so he ordered the soldiers to put them away, but he didn't want to help Yinglong's army clear the obstacles by coincidence.
Under Ji Feng's order, the Ying Long Army changed its direction slightly, and planned to take 15,000 Ying Long soldiers to dig a passage directly from the Qing army camp to Tai'an.
"Change formation! Quad formation! Assault Forward! Kill the Qing Prisoner Camp! Ji Feng coldly ordered.
Suddenly, near the Qing army camp, 15,000 Yinglong soldiers quickly divided into twelve columns, forming a square square formation in front and back, left and right, and planned to enter the Qing army camp with 100,000 troops.
"Newspaper"
"Lord Qiqi, 10,000 Mongolian iron cavalry have been defeated, and the Ming army is approaching the camp!" A soldier with eight banners rushed to report to Azig.
Mongol Beyler and several Mongol generals appeared in Azig's sight at the same time.
"What's going on?" Azig's eyes widened, this embarrassed Mongolian Belle was the general he sent to stop the Ming army's 10,000 Mongolian iron cavalry, there is no doubt that the 10,000 Mongolian iron cavalry was really defeated.
It's only been a quarter of an hour, and 10,000 Mongolian iron cavalry have been defeated, could it be that the Ming army came not less than 20,000, but hundreds of thousands?
The place where the Mongolian iron cavalry and the Ying Long army fought was only a kilometer away from the Qing army camp, and the dense musket sound of the Ying Long army Azig could naturally hear it, although it was a little weird dense, but Azig still didn't think much about it at the time, because the Ming army's muskets were too normal, and his attention was all on the Tai'an city wall that was about to end the battle.
"How many men and horses are there in the Ming army!" Azig looked at the Mongolian Belle who came back from the rout with an iron face, if it weren't for the fact that the Qing Dynasty still had many places to rely on the Mongols, Azig really wanted to kick it over!
"No, less than 20,000!" Mongolian Beile was still frightened at this time, and subconsciously replied, the countless muzzles of the Ming army echoed in his mind, his body couldn't help but tremble, and his face was full of fear.
"How is that possible!" Azig gritted his teeth, how could he believe that although the combat effectiveness of the Mongols was far worse than that of the Eight Banners, it was also stronger than the elite Ming army. If it weren't for the Ming army, which was more than ten times larger, even if the 10,000 Mongolian iron cavalry were defeated, it would not have been possible to defeat them in less than a quarter of an hour!
"Newspaper"
"Lord Qiqi, there are a large number of Ming troops in the west of the camp, and they are about to enter the camp!" Another soldier of the Eight Banners came to report at great speed.
Azig stood on the high platform, raised his eyes, and sure enough, he saw a group of Ming troops with a strange formation appearing on the west side of the camp, Azig quickly estimated, this group of Ming troops was indeed less than 20,000, about 15,000 or so, and looking at the direction they were advancing, this was going to directly enter the camp!
Damn it! Azig's face turned blue, this scene was like a dream, he had never heard of an army of less than 20,000 daring to blatantly plan to directly enter the barracks of an army of 100,000!
Not to mention the Ming army, which is known for its weakness and incompetence, even their world's best Eight Banners Iron Cavalry would not dare to do this!
"Pass the order, suspend the siege, this king will strangle this group of Ming troops first!" Azig angrily stepped off the platform and turned on his horse. Behind him, in addition to a group of Manchurian and Mongolian iron cavalry generals, there were also Shang Kexi of the Han Banner Army, Li Huaxi and a large number of Han Banner Army generals followed!
Not to mention Azig, even Shang Kexi and Li Huaxi, who were born in the Ming Army, couldn't believe it, thinking that it was like a dream! 10,000 Mongolian iron cavalry were defeated by less than 20,000 Ming troops in just a short period of time, and this group of Ming troops was extremely strong and planned to blatantly attack the camp with 100,000 Qing troops! It sounds like a joke! When did such a male soldier appear in the Ming Dynasty! If there were, why did they take refuge in the Manchu Qing Dynasty in the first place, and how did the Ming Dynasty end up in the south of the Yangtze River today!
Shang Kexi, Li Huaxi and other generals of the Han Banner Army couldn't believe it anyway, and gritted their teeth, this group of Ming troops must be looking for death, and the annihilation of the whole army is inevitable!
The decisive battle between Daming and Zuo Liangyu in Anqing was the first battle of Ying Long's army, although Ying Long's army showed its combat power shocked the world, but it was only a few days away from now, and the people of the world only knew that Zuo Liangyu was defeated, as for the specific details, it has not yet spread! Naturally, the battle records and tactics of the Ying Long Army did not spread!
100,000 Qing troops urgently gathered in the camp to deal with the strong impact of the Yinglong army, this is a great war that completely changed the rules of engagement in the world's eastern battlefield, and like the Battle of Anqing, it will surely go down in history!
The soldiers of the Yinglong Army, who formed a quadripartite formation, walked with extremely neat steps, and the fifteen thousand soldiers were like one, and the momentum was terrifying! Countless Qing generals said that they had never seen such an imposing army.
Azig has to crush his teeth, and the most hateful thing is that they are the Ming army! The Ming army that has been defeated by the Qing Dynasty for decades! Despite this, he firmly believed that this group of Ming troops would inevitably be wiped out under his encirclement and suppression! Daqing will always be invincible!
