Chapter Forty-Six: The Chase
Song Pengfei put on the mountain armor left by Zheng Guochang, originally he came with Han Ziqian, but later found that Han Zi was too burly, and this mountain armor didn't seem to be able to wear it, so Xiao Song didn't let it.
Huang Han's team is about equal to a two-seater ironclad family, and the family who was not good at riding has improved quickly after hundreds of miles of long-distance galloping and riding.
This reason is the same as learning to drive, as long as you have the courage to drive for a few days and run three to five thousand kilometers, the rookie will immediately be reborn and become an old driver.
The reason why those who can ride horses in the family are not good at riding is because they have had a rare opportunity to ride war horses before.
This time, they rode two horses and ran for hundreds of miles, and the cumulative time on the horses may have exceeded the total time they had spent riding horses before, and it was strange that their riding skills did not improve.
After leaving the capital and running for half a day, Huang Han's men and horses walked seventy or eighty miles, and when they saw that it was getting late, they chose a village that had been burned down for the night.
Huang Han is still the same, around the bonfire to Pao Ze to talk about history, national heroes, and finally teach everyone three or five new words before changing the guard, checking the night and preparing for bed.
The next day, I still got up early in the morning and hurried, and when I ran more than 100 miles, there was a team of Jiannu sentry horses that unfortunately encountered this ironclad team.
This is a team of sentry horses dedicated to investigating the location of Liu Zhilun's department, the number should be eleven, and now there are only eight people, because three people have already gone back to report the military information of the investigation.
When he came to Beijing, in order not to make any extraneous branches, Huang Han was busy on the road, and he didn't pay attention to Jiannu's sentry at all.
That's because of the rat trap, there is a civil official with no combat effectiveness in the team, if Zheng Guochang was killed by Jiannu due to the lack of eyes in the scuffle, wouldn't it make the painstaking arrangements of these days go down the drain?
On the way home, he was relaxed, and Huang Han with fifty-six itchy subordinates would certainly not let go of any target that could be attacked.
Song Pengfei, who had Shan Wenjia in his body, even used his good riding skills, and took Yang Danian, who had become his good friend, to carefully explore in the first three miles of the team, and the three Jiannu sentry horses were the first to be seen by Song Pengfei.
Song Pengfei was not reckless, he knew that the Houjin Army sentry horse should not be three people, he did not startle the snake, and immediately asked Yang Danian to go back to report the situation, and he continued to keep an eye on it with the four horsemen.
Yang Danian is a veteran who returned from injury, he has a decapitation skill, and he was appointed as a small flag officer on the day he returned.
Yang Danian came to report that there was a small team of Jiannu to fight in front, and all the soldiers were inexplicably excited after learning the news.
It is known that there is no large force of the Houjin army nearby, and there is no city occupied by Jiannu, so it is completely free to chase those enemy sentry horses.
It's just that under normal circumstances, the sentry cavalry is the existence of thieves, in order to prevent Jiannu from escaping, Huang Han decided to use the numerical advantage to encircle and chase and intercept, and encircle and annihilate the enemy cavalry with movement warfare.
Huang Han divided the men and horses into three echelons, Hanzi took fifteen people to detour from the right side and plugged in, and he took fifteen people to insert them behind the enemy through a small forest from the left side, and Yang Danian led the rest of the people to prepare for battle and attack Jiannu head-on.
When Yang Danian and Song Pengfei led twenty-three people to collide head-on with Jiannu, the three enemy sentry horses who found that the enemy was outnumbered immediately retreated, and there were two groups of five Jiannu who also fled in a hurry.
The Ming army chased Jiannu to run, during this period, of course, they were greeted with feather arrows, because Yang Danian and other equipment were better than Jiannu, and the number of men and horses was several times that of the enemy, which greatly made up for the gap in combat skills.
In the chase, the Ming army successfully shot and wounded two Jiannu, although many of their own people were also shot by feather arrows, but they all learned their lessons.
The soldiers who followed Jiannu closely were all wrapped in steel, and everyone pulled down their armor, and no one was unlucky enough to be shot in the eye by Jiannu, so there were no injuries, and they were all slight.
The remaining Jiannu immediately reacted when they saw that the Ming army was chasing after them, and the two of them began to scatter and flee in groups, and a group of people were bitten by Yang Danian and other more than 20 people, and finally were shot into hedgehogs.
There was also a group of people who were hit head-on by Hanzi and other than a dozen people, and Hanzi, who had been prepared for a long time, directly threw a gun and nailed one person to death, and there was also a Jiannu infantry armor that had already been shot into the body with seven or eight feather arrows, and finally Yuan Siming's small flag officer brandished a machete to catch up and cut off the head.
Yuan Siming was a Ming cavalryman who had served for five years, and after following Huang Han, due to his outstanding riding skills, he could rush to the front row in every battle.
He has already shared with his four comrades-in-arms the decapitation of the first-level Jiannu vest and the second-level bannerman, and today this Jiannu was caught up by him and cut off the head, and the credit will be divided into at least half a level.
Huang Han went around the woods and found the two Jiannu who were running away in embarrassment, and after a burst of shooting, the two Jiannu saw that the shaman had gone.
Eleven warriors without iron armor cleaned the battlefield, and even Huang Han, forty-six horsemen, went to pursue the remaining two Jiannu, it was obvious that they were two vests, and their riding skills were very good, and they really didn't catch up after a while.
Later, these two panicked vests fled to the camp of Liu Zhilun's army, thousands of Ming troops were camping, cooking in a pot, and a thousand general managers in charge of vigilance found that Jiannu immediately issued an enemy attack alarm, Liu Zhilun's men and horses suddenly jumped for a while, and some rotten boys immediately began to take advantage of the chaos to escape.
The two Jiannu found that there were thousands of Ming troops in front of them, but of course they didn't dare to crash into it, so they could only choose to go around to the side.
It was just a little delay, Huang Han and more than a dozen cavalry with first-class horsemanship arrived, seven or eight arrows broke through the air, and the two Jiannu, who were already exhausted, were hit by arrows again and their horse speed slowed down.
Huang Han rushed up and chopped off the head of a Jiannu with a knife, and Liu Fenyong, the little flag officer, also caught up with a Jiannu, and he brandished a knife and stick to knock the enemy off his horse.
After a long pursuit, Huang Han found that only Song Pengfei was the only one in his hometown, and the rest of the people, including Hanzi, were left behind.
It seems that the professional counterpart is completely different, even if it was only the Ming cavalry who was mixed before, their riding skills were not comparable to those of the first brother on the battlefield.
After observation, Huang Han found that most of the commanders and small flag officers in the Ming army camp were not indiscriminate, and their combat skills were indeed higher than those of ordinary soldiers.
It is possible to worry that if these army commanders and small flag officers who are not officers but the head of the soldiers cannot even defeat the few soldiers they lead, it will be impossible to serve the public.
Ordinary battalion soldiers are indispensable in order to be army commanders and small flag officers, because becoming a soldier means an extra salary, so these grassroots soldiers rely on their strength to get to the top and have no good looks.
