Chapter 305 Lure the enemy into battle

"Jiannu is afraid," Liu Renyu put away the clairvoyant mirror and smiled proudly.

He was far away from Mang Gurtai and the others, and he couldn't hear what the other party was saying, but he could see clearly his face, what kind of face was it, a face of fear.

"If our artillery fires in unison, and he suffers heavy casualties, and flees in fear, where will the head be cut? You go and give Yang Desheng and Yang Qian an order, and he goes to tell Jiannu that we don't need cannons, don't use hot air balloon bombing, only fight in close combat, and let Jiannu fight with ease. ”

"Yes." When the herald received the command, he galloped away.

Liu Renyu asked Yang Desheng to say this, naturally he was calculating.

Yang Desheng has always been arrogant, and he always involuntarily domineering when he speaks, and now let him say such things to a reckless man with developed limbs and a simple mind like Mang Gurtai, which can have the miraculous effect of angering the enemy.

That Yang Desheng got Liu Renyu's order, so he hit the horse out of the battle, Shi Shiran ran to the front of the Houjin army formation, slanted eyebrows, hanging eyes, looking at the sky at a forty-five degree angle, his true colors, and shouted to the Houjin officers and soldiers domineeringly: "My general said, fight with you, don't let go of artillery, don't use air force bombing, only close combat with you, if you dare to fight, even if you come to fight, if you are afraid, you can go back by yourself, our Jingbian Fort army does not care about the girls." ”

As soon as Yang Desheng said this, the Houjin army was in an uproar, and everyone was full of anger.

"You dog, what is your surname, Lao Tzu will catch you later, and he will definitely tear you alive." Mang Gurtai couldn't stand this, and in his rage, he didn't care about the obstruction of his own guards, and went straight out of the military formation, standing in front of Yang Desheng, and asked in a hateful voice.

"If you don't change your name, you won't change your surname, and Yang Desheng, the general manager of the Jingbian Fort Army in the Ming Dynasty." Yang Desheng said proudly.

"Okay, I'll fight you later, and I'll definitely capture you alive and dismantle you." Mang Gurtai said angrily.

"Hmph......" Yang Desheng's body shook slightly, snorted contemptuously, and then beat the horse back.

"Yes, very!" Mang Gurtai didn't laugh angrily, and ran back to his own military formation, and said in a loud voice: "The miscellaneous soldiers of the Southern Dynasty are too rude, since they don't need artillery, and what air force they don't need, let's fight over, defeat them, and capture all their artillery." ”

"Pierce." Hou Jin soldiers roared in unison.

"Lord Belle, they only said that they don't need cannons, do they really don't need them? Is there a fraud? Aibali still hesitated.

"It doesn't matter if they can't open the artillery, let's fight for a while, if they really fire, it's still the original plan, the casualties will exceed 30%, and they will retreat quickly." Mang Gurtai didn't talk about brute courage at this time, he was very pragmatic, and Fang just spoke like that for the sake of face.

"Pierce." Aiba saluted in response.

The south wind blew, the war drums beat, and the battle began.

"The old method of warfare, the dead soldiers rush forward, dismount and fight on foot, move away from the horses, the sharp soldiers are behind, put bows and arrows to shoot them, they have heavy armor, let's use heavy arrows. The light soldiers were behind, waiting for their formation to break and pursue. Mang Gurtai ordered in a slump of voices.

"Pierce."

After the Jin soldiers got the order, 300 dead soldiers wearing three layers of heavy armor dismounted, holding Kwantung sweeps, armor-piercing cones, tiger guns, maces and other blunt weapons, and walked straight towards the Jingbianbao army formation.

As soon as these dead soldiers attacked, more than a thousand sharp soldiers galloped back and forth on their horses, and after 30 paces away, they began to cast their arrows.

The arrow is used for close shooting, this arrow is wide, full of material, very heavy, and the arrow is slender.

The weight of the arrow body can obtain greater kinetic energy, the arrow is long, the force area is small, and the penetration force is stronger.

Later, Jin Ruibing practiced riding and shooting for a long time, with strong arm strength and accurate shooting.

Even if the soldiers of Jingbian Fort are covered in armor, and even their faces can be protected by armor, but their eye sockets are still exposed, just such a small area, some Houjin Rui soldiers can actually shoot arrows into it.

Even if they can't shoot the eye sockets, some strong archers can rely on their own brute strength and the armor-piercing power of the heavy arrow, and they can successfully shoot through the armor and cause damage to the Jingbian Fort army.

The guns of the Jingbian Fort, but those who were wounded by arrows were all screaming and screaming, and fell to the ground, but this did not affect the array of the firecrackers in the slightest.

The front team falls, and the back team makes up.

The wounded fell to the ground, and no one had time to pay attention to them for the time being, this is the battlefield, and it is also a helpless thing.

"Jiannu is known as the best in the world in riding and archery, it seems that there are indeed a few brushes, and our army is wearing three layers of heavy armor, and it can't resist its heavy arrows."

The strength of Houjin archery, even Liu Renyu admired it a little.

Fortunately, there are not many Houjin Shen marksmen, and most of the heavy arrows sent by Houjin Rui soldiers smashed into the armor of the firecrackers, causing a burst of sparks, and then fell.

The effect of such heavy arrows was only to cause pain in the area where the arrows were struck by the soldiers at Jingbian Fort, not fatally.

The Jingbian Fort army can't just watch the Houjin soldiers unscrupulously release arrows, the range of the fire gun is insufficient, and it can't reach the Houjin Rui soldiers, but the archers can.

So Zhang Tieniu ordered to his archers: "Release the arrows." ”

The archers of the Jingbian Fort Army are professional soldiers, unlike the Houjin soldiers, who are half-ploughing and half-fighting, so the archers of Jingbianbao have stronger arm strength, and they point the longbow in their hands at the sky obliquely.

As soon as the master of his own family gave the order, he shot out like arrows.

The feather arrows flew high into the air, and then fell sharply, forming a rain of arrows, covering the distance of 30 to 50 paces from the Jingbianbao army formation.

Later Jin Ruibing only wore light armor, and could only defend against most of the arrows, and there were always fish that slipped through the net, shooting on their arms, thighs, or heads and faces.

If the Houjin soldiers were shot in the arms and thighs, they didn't care at all, and they would break the arrows, and even bandages would be saved.

If you are shot in the head and face, you will naturally fall under the horse in pain, and you will not stop wailing.

When the archers of the Jingbianbao army and the Houjin Rui soldiers were shooting at each other, and there were mutual casualties, the 300 dead soldiers of the Houjin were not idle, and they rushed straight forward, trying to move the rejection horses laid by the Jingbianbao army.

This rejection horse was carried by special auxiliaries, and it was always at the forefront of the military formation of the Jingbian Fort Army.

The original plan was that if the Houjin soldiers suddenly rushed into formation, they would put it down at any time and block the cavalry. Fortunately, Mang Gurtai did not mean to attack suddenly, so the rejection horse was carried in front of the soldiers and horses of the Blue Banner of Mang Gurtai.

This rejection horse was exactly 20 paces away from the musketeers at Jingbian Fort, which was the best firing distance for arquebuses.

At this distance, it was time for the Jingbian Fort firearms to exert their might.

There was a swan sound from behind the phalanx of firecrackers.

When all the grassroots commanders received the order, they slashed the command knife and said loudly: "Fire." ”

'Smack, smack, smack, smack. ’

Gunshots rang out like fried beans.

The lead bullet in the arquebus carried a huge kinetic energy, and it shot out quickly, and after a short flight, it hit the body of the dead soldier in the back gold heavy armor.

Under the close-range fire of the guns, the so-called three-layer heavy armor is the same as paper paste.

The heavy armor of many of the Houjin dead soldiers was pierced by the lead bullets fired from the firearms.

The nails scattered, and the blood flowed sideways.

Many of the Houjin dead soldiers were killed on the spot by the firecrackers, or were slightly wounded or seriously wounded.

Seriously wounded, he could no longer move, and could only lie on the ground, motionless, and let out bursts of wails.

Those who were slightly injured should carry forward the spirit of not getting out of the line of fire with minor injuries and continue to charge.

On the side of the Jingbian Fort Army, the musketeers standing in the first row quickly retreated and ran to the third platoon, and the second platoon stepped forward, raised their guns, aimed at a general direction, released their guns, and left.

The original third row of firecrackers entered the second row first, then entered the first row, released their guns, and left.

Three-stage strikes, repeating the cycle, maintaining dense firepower.

The sound of fire guns was endless, and the dead soldiers of Jiannu fell to the ground one after another like wheat that had been cut down.

Fortunately, the shooting accuracy of the arquebus is not very high, and the three-stage shot still takes some time to change formations after all.

Therefore, after paying the price of nearly 30 casualties, the Jiannu dead soldiers successfully approached the first phalanx of the firecrackers.

At this time, because there was only about 120 meters of space left between the chariots, it could not accommodate 1,200 musketeers at one time, so the musketeers were divided into three phalanxes.

The swan sounded in the rear, and the phalanx of the first firecrackers quickly separated and retreated into the rear, and the second phalanx of firecrackers engaged.

The phalanx of the first firecrackers retreated, so that the distance between the Houjin dead soldiers and the firecrackers was increased to 20 paces, so another round of firing, and the Houjin dead soldiers once again paid the price of about 20 casualties.

The first wave of firecrackers who had withdrawn earlier took the opportunity to board the chariots on both sides of the military formation, and fired freely on the roof of the chariots, flanking the Houjin dead soldiers who had already rushed into the military formation, as well as the Houjin Rui soldiers who were still shooting at the archers of Jingbian Fort.
