Chapter 216: Crisis
On the right flank of the military formation, the shield battalion of the big bull is a thousand people, and the big bull is standing at the front of the team!
For the sake of safety, Qin Yiming mobilized part of the pike battalion to strengthen the defense of the right flank, and the shield battalion was flanked by those spearmen, who were in a tight formation, with neat spears, waiting there.
"Kill!" The thieves of the old camp began to shout and charge.
Da Niu is calm and calm, his eyes are cold, more than 10,000 people are rushing and running, the whole earth is trembling, but he is not afraid at all, his face is cold, his shield battalion has always been a sharp knife existence, their task is to withstand the enemy's charge, but also to tear through the enemy's formation.
"Ready!" The big cow drank loudly.
Those peasant soldiers came straight to the big bull, the big bull body was half-squatting, the lower leg lunge, the center of gravity forward, the big shield blocked in front of the chest, the sharp spear was diagonally forward, and the tip of the spear was still shining with cold light!
Watching those emaciated peasants rush over, the big bull held the shield on his left shoulder, and moved forward half a position, this sudden collision, the first peasant army that came into contact with the shield was directly knocked out of the mouth and vomited blood, and some peasant troops were directly hit by sharp spears and pierced the heart and lungs, these thieves and the shield battalion soldiers of the big bull, from the quality of individual soldiers, are not at a grade at all, but there are many thieves, and more and more people have to surround them like ants, and there are more and more people.
Da Niu felt a lot of pressure, but he didn't retreat in the slightest, and his heels were nailed to the ground.
"Ahhh The big bull roared with all his might, and the strength of the whole body burst out, concentrated on the huge iron shield, and the dozens of people who were blocked by the shield were all overturned, and the big bull smashed with an iron shield with his left hand, and the thief ** burst out, and his right hand was stabbed with a spear, and the two people became a string when one shot was stabbed.
"Throw a spear, use a waist knife!" The bull shouted, and a thousand spears flew out, and all the soldiers of the shield battalion drew their swords.
Generally, the spear is more useful against cavalry, and when it is used to resist charges, but in the case of hand-to-hand combat, Da Niu found that this much shorter waist knife was more efficient in slashing.
The battalion of the great bull with a shield was like an awl, which sharply divided the thieves who met him in half. Although those thieves are old battalions, experienced in combat, and strong in combat, but in front of the shield battalion of the big bull, they are also eggs touching stones, they are like ten-year-old children beating adults, whether it is physical strength, equipment and height there is no advantage, so not only do they not advance an inch, but they have suffered heavy casualties, on the other hand, the more brave the big bull is, the more they fight, the soldiers are covered in blood, and their eyes are red, they don't think about anything now, they have always had a thought, kill! Kill all your enemies!
After all, the leader of the old battalion is a person with rich combat experience, these shield battalion soldiers of the Ming army, one by one, are wearing such a big shield, their bodies are hidden behind the shield, each soldier is close to each other, and the frontal defense formed in this way is simply invincible, they can't break through at all, they can't mess up their formation, so don't say 10,000 people, no matter how many people don't help, so he changed the strategy of attacking, if the front is not good, then surround it, if you can't attack it head-on, then go around the back, The shield battalion was flanked by regular spearmen, and defeating them shouldn't be a problem.
"Kill, surround them up and kill them!"
The men of the old battalion apparently began to avoid the important and light, and the forces began to disperse to the sides, believing that the spearmen were the weakness of the right flank, and began to focus on attacking the right flank of the Ming army.
The spearmen are also closely connected, lined up in several rows, the spears are neatly aligned, and they have only one movement, and that is to stab!
The weapons of the thieves are of different lengths, but the spearmen are indeed very unified, all of them are spears, these spears can resist the enemy two or three steps away, and in the middle of the area, there are spears blocking there, spears piercing out, and those thieves who are eager to try are all stabbed to death without exception!
Compared to the shield battalion, the spearmen's defense is definitely much weaker, but their attack ability is stronger, and their best defense is to attack, which is to let the enemy be stabbed to death two or three steps away!
The right wing attack was blocked, the left wing, Sun Kewang's 2,000 people just came into contact with the fierce tiger, and found that they did not have an advantage, so they began to retreat, and the fierce tiger was also chasing after him, when the fierce tiger chased two miles, he found that he had been tricked, there were still five thousand thieves in ambush, he had been surrounded, although he was impacting left and right, but whenever he was about to break through, the damn Sun Kewang would follow and drag him to death!
"The fierce commander is in danger, brothers, come with me to rescue the fierce commander!" Aiwannian did not wait for the military order, and ran out with the remaining cavalry.
After Yang Jiuyi repelled several rounds of attacks from the thieves' forwards, the thieves' frontal attacks had weakened a lot, and the frontal battlefield was also full of corpses, and the corpses were almost piled up into a corpse wall formed by corpses.
Yang Jiuyi was worried when he saw Ai Wannian on the left flank leaving the defense area, but fortunately, there was no enemy on the left flank now, and then look at the right flank, the shield battalion of the big bull fought well, and the spear battalion was even more powerful, killing the thieves without leaving a piece of armor, but it was difficult to distinguish the victory or defeat for a while.
Fierce as a tiger is in danger, his 1,000 people have lost more than half, and now they have been completely surrounded by the thieves' infantry, just when Meng Ruhu felt that he was going to explain here today, Ai Wannian came with a thousand cavalry, and the moment he saw Ai Wannian, he knew that he was saved.
"Brothers, our reinforcements have arrived, break through to the south!" Fierce as a tiger shouted.
The Ming army has been forced to a very small range, they no longer have the advantage of being cavalry, and their morale is very low, but at this time, everyone heard that reinforcements were coming, and their morale was greatly boosted, and everyone followed the fierce tiger to break through to the south.
Ai Wannian's timely arrival can be regarded as saving the life of a fierce tiger, Ai Wannian with a spear in his hand, rushed into the encirclement of the thieves with speed, and shouted at the same time: "General Meng, break through to the north!" ”
Fierce as a tiger, he immediately understood, and shouted: "Brothers, with the momentum of reinforcements, follow and rush north!" ”
There are only two ways of cavalry combat, one is the harassment-based combat method that the Mongols are good at, this kind of combat requires a strong bow and arrow and good shooting skills, and the second is a trap battle, that is, using the speed of cavalry to break up the enemy's formation, and then weaken the enemy's combat power, Qin Yiming's cavalry obviously belongs to the second mode of combat, as fierce as a tiger to break through to the south, so that he and Ai Wannian can flank the thieves in the south, and it is easy to break out, but Ai Wannian chose to break through to the north because he wanted to chisel through the entire encirclement of the thieves, disrupt the infantry, scatter them, weaken their combat effectiveness, and finally defeat this group of thieves.
Sure enough, after Ai Wannian's conical array rushed into the encirclement, he did not slow down, but continued to attack northward, and the fierce tiger also followed Ai Wannian's team to continue to attack, when they rushed out of the encirclement, the thief's team had been divided into two pieces, and there were many thieves' corpses lying all the way in the middle, and the blood flowed like a river.
"General Ai, thank you for your great kindness, if it weren't for you, I would be as fierce as a tiger and would be here today!" Fierce as a tiger.
"It's serious, wait until we eliminate this group of thieves, and then continue to kill!" Ai Wannian slammed his crotch and got off the horse, and rushed out, he wanted to continue to impact while the thieves were scattered, and he couldn't let the thieves form a cohesive force.
With several rounds of rushing back and forth for Ai Wannian, this group of thieves has been rushed to pieces, their morale collapsed, and they began to flee, and Ai Wannian and Fierce Tiger also followed all the way to chase and kill.
"This damn Sun Kewang, where did his cavalry go, our people had already surrounded this cavalry, if his cavalry was there, our people would not be killed and collapsed, and this cavalry would not be able to escape!" A personal soldier was angry when he saw the 5,000 righteous army being defeated like this, and he was also full of complaints about Sun Kewang.
"Haha, Sun Kewang is the number one general under the Eight Great Kings, this person is extremely insidious and cunning, these five thousand people were originally used to drag the right wing cavalry of the Ming army!" Although Luo Rucai also felt sorry for his subordinates, he felt that if Sun Kewang succeeded, then everything was worth it.
"How many of us are left?"
"General, there are still 30,000 young men, this is our last strength!"
"Order the whole army, press all of them on me, if anyone dares to be afraid this time, let the law enforcement team directly kill in front of the formation!" Luo Rucai was suddenly extremely cold, and his eyes looked at the battlefield in the distance fiercely.
The pro-soldier was stunned for a moment, why did Luo Rucai suddenly give such a military order, he felt that the moment of the decisive battle had come, "Yes, general!" ”
Yang Jiuyi repelled wave after wave of charges, ** was almost consumed, and the people of the firearms battalion were also resting in rotation, the electric switches in their hands had been replaced, and the electric switches in their hands had been used for too long, the barrel was hot, and it would be very dangerous to continue to use them, so Qin Yiming would generally equip the people of the firearms battalion with more firearms, so that these firearms could be used in rotation, so that when encountering high-intensity combat, his firearms battalion would not affect its combat effectiveness because of the problem of guns.
The thief war drum sounded again, Yang Jiuyi looked into the distance worriedly, another wave of charges, this time it seemed to be different, there were more people coming!
"All of them go to the front line for me, this should be the last group of people!" Yang Jiuyi ordered, he saw that there were no more people left behind the thieves, and the crowd of black pressure was almost all pressed up, and he suddenly felt that the pressure was huge, and it would be a bloody battle.
"Get all our family money and get ready, we must defend this wave!" Yang Jiuyi shouted an order.
The auxiliaries began to get busy, and the oil drums, ** barrels, a swarm of bees, lead bullet boxes, sub-guns and other materials were all carried up, and the swarm of bees was neatly arranged in front of the firearms battalion, and there were auxiliary soldiers who were specially responsible for igniting the fire.
When Luo Rucai's army was dispatched, and Ai Wannian and the fierce cavalry had not yet returned to the left flank, Sun Kewang, who was lurking in the distance and watching, thought that the opportunity had come, so he was like a poisonous snake, lurking in the shadows and waiting, ready to give Qin Yiming a fatal blow at any time!
"Father-in-law, your revenge with one shot, the child avenged you today! The child will present Qin Yiming's head to you! ”
