Chapter 182: The Battle of the Blue Hoof Pavilion V
"Waste." Azig snorted coldly, and there seemed to be a substantial flame erupting from his eyes.
If it weren't for the fact that these people in front of him were all children of the Eight Banners, Azig would have already given an order to behead him.
He inevitably sighed in his heart, and said secretly: "It's really not as good as the generation." ”
When this generation of Eight Banners was young, Huang Taiji was in charge, and at that time the Qing army had already occupied a strategic advantage over the Ming Dynasty. The living environment of the children of the Eight Banners is better, I don't know how much. Naturally, some people are not good at practicing martial arts and love Han culture. Even Huang Taiji specially issued an edict, asking to urge the disciples of the Eight Banners to practice martial arts and learn literature, and not to be nostalgic for the opera troupe.
For education, these things are either forcefully suppressed or it is okay.
This group of people has now become the backbone of the Qing army, but compared to their parents, they are less ruthless. If it was the older generation of Eight Banners, in order to intercept and kill Ma Sanbao, even if Ma Sanbao escaped into Liang Huafeng's army, they would dare to break into the battle directly.
Whether you succeed or not is another matter, but whether you dare or not is a matter of courage.
"The prince is angry." There were many people below who knelt down and pleaded.
Speaking of which, the so-called Eight Banners Group is actually the Aixin Jueluo family and several big families, that is, the union of the old eight surnames in Manchuria, which are mutual in-laws with each other, and dozens of big families centered on them, of course, there are some poor among the soldiers below.
But generally called officers, most of them are people in this circle.
It's all related to each other.
Azig said: "Okay, spare his life, be demoted to the vanguard, and this battle will not be written off." "If you die in this battle, you don't need to say anything.
Before Azig, he wanted to lure Liang Huafeng to attack, but seeing this situation at this moment, he knew that Liang Huafeng would not move easily.
In this case, Azig did not make the slightest reservation.
At the sound of an order, except for the more than 1,000 horsemen guarding Azig, the rest of the troops pressed on a large scale, and for a time thousands of horses galloped, the ground was floating and the earth was flying, smoke and dust were billowing, wind and sand, blood, gunsmoke, and gunfire were mixed into a majestic battlefield symphony.
At this moment, a large number of explosions came from the Qing army, and the Qing army held a small wine jar of one or two catties in their hands, filled with gunpowder, and after lighting the fire rope, they smashed it far away in the Xia army array with ropes.
Although the power of gunpowder in this era was not great, several people were injured near the explosion, because the formations of the Xia army were densely arranged. And in such a situation, even if there are not many injuries, it is very demoralizing.
This is still a fluke, the hand-grenade thing, Zhang Xuan has taken it out for a long time.
It's just that it wasn't taken seriously by the Qing army. The Qing army has always attached great importance to swordsmen and lancers.
Now the situation has forced Azig into a corner, and the so-called poverty has changed. Temporarily replaced by gunpowder wine jars, but this thing has big problems, such as not burning, or smashed, so some of these wine jars are filled with fire oil.
Among the Xia army, firearms were mostly used, and these firearms were lit with fire ropes, so there were quite a lot of fire sources.
With these sources of fire, as soon as they are dipped in the oil, the flames will spread and burn a large area. For a while, the Xia army's formation wavered. It's not that Sergeant Xia is afraid, but he hasn't seen these things and doesn't know how to deal with them.
And at this critical time, as soon as the Xia army was in chaos, the Qing army entered the army.
For a while, the melee spread from the periphery of the Xia army's formation.
The sound of neat firecrackers gradually became chaotic, and then it was like fried beans, and no longer heard any sound of neat rows of guns, and all departments fell into their own battles, and they were all in close combat.
The situation became more and more urgent, Zheng Chenggong became more and more calm, he gently rubbed the smooth wood on the Taishi chair with one hand, and suddenly said, "Pass the order to go down and let a part of the Qing army come over." ”
"Never." Liu Guoxuan and the others were shocked and said: "The Qing army is so fierce, once it is released, it will definitely be out of control." ”
"If it goes on like this, it's out of control." Zheng Chenggong said lightly: "The Qing army is on the offensive, and our army has broken three armies in a row in one day today, and the whole army is up and down, and the morale does not know what to send." If it goes on like this, I'm afraid the morale will collapse out of control, and I need a victory. ”
Zheng Chenggong thought about it carefully, and a counterattack would never work.
The Qing army is afraid that it will wait for the Xia army to counterattack, and the probability of winning with infantry and cavalry is not known, Zheng Chenggong does not know, thinking about it, the only way to lure the Qing army into the battle, annihilate it, and boost the morale of the army. Zheng Chenggong's tone was indifferent, but there was a categorical meaning in his words.
Even if they are worried, they dare not dissuade them.
I can only promise to come down.
Immediately, Zheng Chenggong waved the flag, and the military formation, which was waiting for it, came out of a gap nearly ten zhang wide in the middle.
Even along this passage, you can directly see the core of the Xia Army, which is also where Zheng Chenggong's flag is located.
Azig saw it from a distance, and suddenly sneered in his heart, feeling that Zheng Chenggong was extremely ridiculous, luring the enemy like this, aren't you afraid that the net will be broken if the fish doesn't die?
Before Azig could give the order, the cavalry of the Qing army had already rushed in.
Gain's opportunity is too rare, and the Qing army also has such self-confidence. They were confident that they could cut Xia Jun through the middle.
Since both sides have this self-confidence, they can only speak with their swords.
Because the battlefield left by the Xia army was quite narrow, the Qing army, which rushed to the front, dismounted and fought on foot. Although the soldiers of the Eight Banners are powerful in cavalry, they are never simple cavalry, and they dismount and fight in formation, which is also extremely powerful, but after the rise of the Xia army, there are few such opportunities.
Now is the moment.
The Qing army wore heavy armor, holding heavy weapons in their hands, such as iron whips, flower bones, such weapons, armor-piercing is the sharpest, under a blow, you can smash a big hole in the armor, and beat people to the outside of the wound is not big, but it hurts the internal organs, and there is no cure.
But the guards around Zheng Chenggong are different.
Most of them are plate armor, which was specially created by Zheng Chenggong at the beginning, and they are not tall, even shorter than the Eight Banners soldiers, and they hold long knives. One by one, they are desperate and not afraid of death, and their hands and feet are not clean.
Quite a few people carry firearms.
Although it can only be a single blow, in the case of hand-to-hand combat, this blow can kill a person.
After all, the most important thing in the Zheng family is money, and the imperial court supplies the army, but everyone does not dare to match the firearms, but among Zheng Chenggong's pro-army, it is already commonly equipped.
Although they are not used to fighting on land, no one is afraid of picking up and working hard, and the leaders are all famous generals under Zheng Chenggong, such as Liu Guoxuan, Zhou Quanbin and so on.
There were also Xia Jun's musket interceptions on both sides, and the fight was inextricable for a while.
Zheng Chenggong sat on the Taishi chair, only listening to the shield beside him, making the sound of snatching, but it was the heavy arrow shot by the heavy bow of the Qing army, this arrow was extremely vicious, almost all of them went to Zheng Chenggong's face, even if Zheng Chenggong had put down his armor and left only two eyes, I am afraid it would not work.
Zheng Chenggong didn't care, and waved his hand.
The Xia army on both sides killed the middle, wanting to cut off the return route of the Qing army.
But how could the Qing army allow it?
The distance of more than ten zhang has become the focus of competition with each other. The two sides were hugging each other, and there was no room to take a step back, and even some soldiers had been stabbed to death with knives, but both sides had rushed here, leaving the corpse without even room to fall.
It is the so-called place of corpses.
This short distance of ten zhang is like a bloody mouth, devouring countless lives, whether it is the Xia army or the Qing army.
Nine zhang, eight zhang, seven zhang, six zhang, five zhang, four zhang, three zhang, two zhang, one zhang.
The Xia armies on both sides finally converged. Stepping on the overlapping corpses, there were enemies and their own people, and finally cut off the back road of the Qing army. For a while, Sergeant Xia couldn't help but shout: "Wan Sheng, Wan Sheng, Wan Sheng." ”
Tens of thousands of people shouted together, and the sound shook the world.
Surrounded by the Xia army, the Qing army suddenly panicked.
In fact, there were not many Qing troops who rushed into the middle of the Xia army, at most more than a thousand people, and in order to surround more than a thousand people, the Xia army and the Qing army died at least two or three thousand people. However, even this is worth it, because the victory itself, more than anything.
Especially on the battlefield.
