If you can use your own infantry to fight out the enemy's cavalry, even if it is a larger exchange ratio, all the modern infantry generals in this world will not hesitate to do it.

This is because modern infantry, as opposed to cavalry, is a cheap class!

The musketeers of modern infantry, as long as they are physically qualified, three months is enough to achieve a quick start, and then they can be pulled up to fight.

But cavalry, every cavalry needs at least several years of training, especially this kind of cavalry cavalry of the Tatars, it is impossible to do it without training for a few years or even longer, and the cavalry of the Tatars is basically trained from a young age, and it takes a longer time.

The Tang Army lost tens of thousands of infantry, and it will be able to replenish it in a few months!

In last year's autumn and winter operations, the Datang Army lost more than 10,000 troops before and after, and the casualties were actually very large, but they replenished while fighting, and after the autumn and winter battles, they took a rest for the whole month, and they were full again, and their combat effectiveness was not reduced at all.

But if the cavalry has more than 10,000 dead and wounded, then it will be extremely difficult to replenish it.

Chen Keqiao held the mentality that although his Fifth Infantry Division suffered heavy casualties, but also gave the Tatar cavalry in front of him a heavy loss, he issued the latest order, and through the flag, the heralds and officers shouted, and passed this order to the whole division!

"The rise and fall of the dynasty is here to fight, and I hope that all the kings will fight bravely to kill the enemy!"

This slogan, the Tang Army has been used several times, and each time is a decisive battle with great impact, when the attack on Wuzhou City, when the Huguang Ming Army besieged Xingquan Mansion, the Tang Dynasty was in danger, Li Xuan conveyed the slogan of the rise and fall of the dynasty to the soldiers of the whole army under the city of Wuzhou, in order to inspire the morale of the army, and finally successfully broke through Wuzhou, opened the shackles of the Ming Dynasty on the neck of the Tang Dynasty, and won the final victory of the Southward Liangguang Campaign.

And now, Chen Keqiao also shouted this slogan, announcing to the officers and men of the whole army that this will be a decisive battle to the death!

After the order was delivered, the officers at all levels below, facing the Tatar 8,000 cavalry who rushed forward and were rapidly approaching, also shouted their own different slogans:

"Tang Dynasty King, fight to the death and never retreat!"

"Long live Datang!"

"Long live the Ancient Sage!"

The soldiers of several phalanxes in the rear were still shooting and rushing into the interior, and the besieged ones lost their high speed, so they could only continue to run in the passage in despair, trying to rush out or simply storm the array of more than 1,000 Ming cavalry, and this more than 1,000 Ming cavalry is rapidly decreasing, if there is no accident, it is estimated that it will not take long, I am afraid that they will be killed and wounded.

The infantry in the phalanx in front of them, under the leadership of the officers, are nervously sorting out the formation, making the formation more dense, and the soldiers who have just fired are also rapidly loading.

At this time, the advantage of flintlock pistols is that they appear to be more convenient and faster to reload than arquebuses.

At the same time, after equipping the flintlock pistol, the soldiers' queue became more dense, although it became only three rows, but because there was no need to worry about the fire rope causing the comrades' muskets to go off, the density between the soldiers was very large, and they were basically shoulder to shoulder.

The density of troops and firepower compared to the arquebusiers in the past, it was a heaven and an underground.

The Tatar cavalry on the opposite side began to speed up, and their speed was faster than the previous Tatar cavalry, because the previous Tatar cavalry just wanted to fire a salvo in front, leaving a certain amount of spare strength to prepare to turn, but now, these 8,000 Tatar cavalry wanted to break through the interception of the frontal Tang army and rescue the more than 1,000 remaining Tatar cavalry inside.

So don't worry too much about their speeds, even faster!

The Tatar cavalry began to pick up speed, and the naval guns also fired, and all kinds of cannons and shotguns were fired!

If these Tatar cavalry and the previous 2,000 Tatar cavalry had dispersed on their own initiative, perhaps these shells would not have caused them too many casualties, but now, in order to ensure the impact force, they have maintained a dense formation.

Even if it is not the Tang cavalry, which is almost shoulder to shoulder, forming a dense formation like a riding wall, but for the classical cavalry, this is also very dense.

And what effect will the dense formation cause?

Naturally, there were heavy casualties!

In the past, when the Tatar cavalry charged, a single shell could kill and wound two or three Tatar cavalry at most, but now, with good luck, one shell can even kill and wound a dozen Tatar cavalry.

And not to mention, after the Tatar cavalry in front was knocked out, because the formation of the Tatar cavalry was too dense, the cavalry in the rear could not dodge in time, and then tripped, causing a second casualty.

However, although the shells were powerful and caused great damage, they still could not stop the charge of the Tatar cavalry!

They roared, and some Tatar cavalry, regardless of increasing the probability of being hit, directly relied on their legs to stand up straight on horseback, and directly bent their bows and arrows in their hands, ready to shoot arrows within a distance of tens of meters!

The courage of these Tatars when they charged, even Chen Keqiao in the rear admired it, this kind of scene was like facing the charge of the Ming army in the early years.

In the early years, the Ming army was also full of self-confidence and strode towards the array of the Tang Army!

Then, they were defeated by the Tang Army, they came fast and ran faster!

Today in the Tatars, he seems to see the shadow of the early Ming army!

The Tatars launched a charge, extremely fast, and after rushing to a distance of 100 meters with the artillery bombardment, all the musketeers of the Tang Army in front also opened fire!

Because at this time, if they don't fire again, the opponent will continue to rush in and shoot large-scale arrows, and under the opponent's large-scale archery, their own side will definitely reduce casualties.

Firing early and wounding these Tatar cavalry before they shoot their arrows will reduce the pressure on your own bow and arrows in the future.

In the thousands of muskets fired, the Tatar cavalry in the charge seemed to be a wave, and the wave at the front was directly hit and disappeared in the continuous rounds of shooting!

These Tatar cavalry, not 8,000 people rushed forward in a row, but formed most of the dozen attack waves rushed forward in turn, and the waves in front were only a few hundred horses at most!

And these hundreds of horsemen, in such a fierce fire, turned out to be mostly hit and then killed, injured or fell off their horses!

Such heavy casualties made Burigood in the rear gnash his teeth, but he didn't shout to stop, in fact, he couldn't stop if he wanted to.

His cavalry continued to attack, and the wave of cavalry in front was crippled, but the cavalry behind rushed up again!

And at this time, they were less than thirty meters away from a hollow phalanx of the Tang infantry in front, and these cavalrymen began to shoot arrows quickly, but they couldn't shoot a few arrows, because their speed was very fast, and they would soon rush to the front of the Tang army's array, and then fight directly with their sabers!

What the Tatars want is not only to kill and injure some Tang soldiers, but also to break through the hollow phalanx of the Tang army and rescue the cavalry inside, well, now it is impossible to save if you don't want to, because rushing so close, they don't even have a chance to turn, they can only grit their teeth and rush up directly!

And one of the major commanders of this hollow phalanx held aloft the command knife: "Grenadier ready, drop bombs!" ”

Dozens of grenadiers in the middle of the array threw grenades in unison, and the grenades suddenly exploded in the Tatar cavalry group rushing ahead, killing and wounding many Tatar cavalry.

However, after the explosion, more Tatar cavalry rushed over!

The major in the hollow phalanx was riding on his horse, and although his young face was a little panicked, he still ordered according to the regulations: "Prepare for the collision!" ”

The musketeers in the front row, who were lucky enough to survive the rain of arrows, had already begun their tactical moves!

The musketeers in the front row crouched down and leaned the tail of the musket against the dirt, and then the gun pointed diagonally forward, the flintlock musketeer in the second row held the musket and pointed forward obliquely, and the musketeer in the last row held the musket against the musket forward.

It is worth noting that in fact, the musketeer's bayonet, like the spearman's spear, was not really used to kill and wound cavalry, mainly to keep the horse out of the way.

War horses are also afraid of death, and when they see a bright bayonet forest in front of them, they will not rush forward stupidly.

However, this is just the general situation, if the war horse is well-trained, and the cavalry is also regardless of the life and death of the war horse, forcibly rushing up, it is also able to urge the war horse to rush up, at the last moment, the skilled cavalry will control the war horse to cross forward, directly into the array, of course, can succeed very rarely.

Most of them were unsuccessful and then finished, but these finished cavalry had already completed their historical mission, because by the power of the collision alone, they could rush away from the infantry in front and even kill them!

Then the cavalry in the rear will be able to keep up!

Because this time it was for the battle, the waves of cavalry in front of the Tatars, which were also the relatively few cavalry among them that were specially used to charge into battle, armor was necessary, and they were all well-trained horses and cavalry.

They will act as the vanguard, using their lives to open gaps for the cavalry in the rear, otherwise, it will be difficult for ordinary horses and cavalry to rush into the phalanx.

When the front row of the infantry in this hollow phalanx was ready, the Tatar cavalry finally rushed over, and the Tatar cavalry at the front was extremely skilled, and directly in front of the formation, he controlled the war horse to jump up, and it looked like he was about to leap through the array.

However, at this time, the strength of the war horse had reached the end, and as a result, the height of the flight was lower, and the belly of the war horse was directly cut by a bayonet.

But the war horses and cavalry, driven by inertia, still flew forward, and then fell heavily behind the array, the war horses fell to the ground, and the knights were also thrown to the ground!

However, this was only the beginning, and almost instantly, many Tatar cavalry rushed up!

In the face of hundreds of cavalry rushing up one after another, this hollow phalanx composed of infantry battalions was like papier-mâché, and it was directly pierced!

But the battalion commander of this infantry battalion did not show any strange looks, and took a deep breath!

He shouted: "Long live the Tang Dynasty!" While waving the command knife in his hand, he rushed forward!

A few seconds later, the major was cut down head-on by a Tatar cavalryman, wearing a dark blue officer's uniform, he fell directly from his horse, and then fell heavily to the ground, and after he fell to the ground, he still had his eyes open, looking at the blue sky!
