Chapter 115: Fengji Fort Outpost 5
Chen Hu made a decision between the fire, although the commander's order was to keep a safe distance, but the current situation must be played by the chief officer on the spot. Without hesitation, he ordered: "Attack in full, pursue the enemy, bombard their backs at close range with short firing guns,"
After saying that, he rushed out first, Li Hui followed closely, and the whole whistle was jubilant, and quickly chased after him.
Looking upstairs, Bai Zaixiang and the others were dumbfounded, is this really Jiannu's heavy cavalry, two hundred people fell in one look, when did Jiannu be so resistant. Stunned, he watched as the cavalry sentry of a hundred people chased after the remaining hundred or so Jiannu.
At this time, the advantages of the Arabian horse were concretely revealed, with long legs, one step and a half against the Mongolian horse. The distance quickly narrowed, and soon they caught up to a distance of fifty meters, Jiannu was obviously even more panicked, and they all shot arrows reflexively, but it was useless, the thickness of the front of the breastplate was three millimeters, and the carburized hardened steel plate could not be shot through at all.
The distance quickly narrowed to twenty meters. The Jiannu cavalry began to scatter and flee, and one ran out counted as one. They reflexively threw small axes, hammers, and some with special skills used slingshots to shoot iron balls. The soldiers of the cavalry post quickly drew their handcuffs and opened fire on Jiannu's back, which was a good distance for the head. One by one, Jiannu was bombarded and dismounted. The entire battlefield reverberated with a roar.
Zhao Zhiguo was chasing a Jiannu veteran, he looked like a small leader with a stubbled beard, this old thief was very cunning, and he hid in the past twice when he shot twice. Zhao Zhiguo inserted the two finished handcuffs back into the saddle, pulled out the two handguns, and fired a shot at the old thief's horse leg with his right hand.
The war horse screamed, and its two hind legs were blown to pieces, and it was snatched straight forward. Throwing Lao Jiannu directly to the ground, Zhao Zhiguo quickly pulled out the Kangxi war knife, and gently put it on his neck, and the war horse grazed with speed like a gallop, and a hideous human head flew into the air. A cavity of hot blood spurted out more than a meter high.
He said in his heart, first, put the knife back into its scabbard and made a cut in the saddle with the dagger.
Lin Dong was surrounded by three Jiannu at this time, Lin Dong did not panic at all according to the usual training, but subconsciously took out two short firearms and bombarded the two of them, the two of them were directly pierced, their chests were in tatters, and they fell to the ground like broken sacks. Lin Dong threw away the handcuffs mechanically, this is required by the training syllabus, you don't need to understand the reason, you have to remember.
At this time, there was no time to insert the gun back into the saddle, Lin Dong directly pulled out the Kangxi battle knife, held it with both hands, and slashed diagonally towards the remaining Jiannu. At this time, Jiannu waved his hand, a small axe rolled and flew, directly on the bucket helmet, the two-millimeter helmet was cut, the axe stuck on the helmet The blade of the axe was only half a centimeter away from Lin Dong's eyes, at the same time, Li Dong's big knife was also close to Jiannu, Jiannu was very strong, holding the knife with one hand to block, there was no problem with the strength, enough to resist, but he didn't know the sharpness of the big knife, with a click, the waist knife was directly cut off, and the Kangxi war knife was cut diagonally from Jiannu's left shoulder to the right waist. The two horses passed by, Jiannu's upper body slipped down diagonally and fell to the ground, the colorful intestines flowed to the ground, Lin Dong went to the battlefield for the first time, just now the line of life and death, there was no time to think between the calcium carbide firelight, at this time, he felt a spasm in his stomach, and leaned over and vomited.
Soon the battlefield was cleared, except for three hundred horses wailing on the battlefield, arching their mouths over the corpse of their master and refusing to leave, there was no Jiannu left.
Li Hui turned his head and waved a small flag towards the watchtower.
Li Yu said to Wang Gui: "You Mao soldiers don't have armor, these armor and weapons will be given to you, you send someone to cut the head and send it, the horses and property to me, the armor and weapons are yours." ”
Wang Gui was overjoyed. Hurriedly rushed out with Mao Bing.
The trumpeter blew the rallying call, and the scattered cavalry posts began to assemble, and the cavalry of the two Niulu of Jiannu in the distance was coming, and the three thousand infantry also increased their speed, obviously realizing that something was wrong here.
When the Mao soldiers heard that there was such a good thing, they flocked under the leadership of Wang Gui, and 700 people led the horses and picked up the armor. I didn't even let go of my clothes, these were poor and ruthless to become soldiers. Finally, the head is cut off. However, these people are still rational and do not dare to be greedy for the gold, silver, copper, coins and other possessions on the corpses. It's all handed over to the chief.
The Mao soldiers were very experienced in doing this, and at first glance they were veterans who searched everywhere to make a fortune, and in a short time they were like locusts, gnawing away the crops and then quickly returning to the fortress. Runs faster than a rabbit.
Turg, who had arrived quickly from a distance with two Niulu cavalry, gritted his teeth in anger, and these brutes had cleaned up the bannermen and cut off their heads and took them. After a while, when they enter the Tiger Skin Station, they must all be broken into pieces.
The Mao soldiers who returned to the camp were beaming one by one, like the New Year, in addition to the heads, property, and horses handed over to Li Yu, 300 sets of three-layer armor, cavalry bows and arrows, spears, knives and axes, clothes, etc. were all returned to the Mao soldiers. The three-layer armor of Jiannu refers to the cloth armor on the outside, the armor on the inside, and the chain mail on the inside. Seven hundred Mao soldiers received nine hundred sets of armor at one time. Jiannu's fur clothes are also a good thing, Liaodong is rich in leather goods, and they can be sold at a good price when they are returned to the mainland, and they are warm to wear. Seeing that the eyes of the generals of Youyang were hot.
Turge (1594-1645), Niu Hulu, a native of Manchuria with a white flag, and the eighth son of the head of the five founding ministers of the Later Jin Dynasty. Minister of the Qing Dynasty, general. The young man conquered from Nurhachi and married Princess Heshuo. At this time, he was awarded the rank of general. This time, he was responsible for leading three Niu Lu plus his own 100 personal soldiers, a total of 1,000 cavalry, and coordinated with the 3,000 infantry of the commander of the tentative attack, Commander Sakhalian, and the 5,000 infantry of the three newly attached tribesmen, including the White Sheep Bone Department led by Kamutu, to pull out the Tashan Mountain City and the Tiger Skin Post on the periphery of Fengji Fort.
These foot soldiers were all subordinates of the old men who were difficult to subdue in various tribes, and they were not directly incorporated into the Eight Banners, but were used as consumables to intercept the reinforcements of Fengji Fort.
In the thirty-second year of Wanli of the Ming Dynasty (1604), Sakhalian was born in Liaodong and was the third son of Daishan, the prince of Heshuoli. Nurhachi's grandson, when Nurhachi was in power, he was awarded the title of Baylor for merit and participated in the discussion of politics. He was an important figure who later supported Huang Taiji. At this time, he was only seventeen years old, and this expedition was an opportunity that Dai Shan won for him.
The people of Khamtu would go around to the Tiger Skin Post and cut off the reinforcements from Fengji Fort and Tashan Mountain City. According to the plan, 1,000 iron cavalry and 3,000 infantry soldiers of the Eight Banners were enough to deal with 4,700 infantry soldiers of the Ming army.
Chen Hu and Li Hui ordered the five men who had been wounded in hand-to-hand combat to return to the camp in pursuit, and then took the remaining ninety-six men and loaded them with rifles and handcuffs. They lined up to meet Turg's seven hundred cavalry.
