Chapter 447: Charging into battle

The Qing army commanded the battle by Prince Heshuo Zheng Jilharang. Writing "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info heard the scout say that Li Zhi's soldiers and horses had come to support, and Zierharang was surprised and delighted.

What was surprising was that he finally surrounded Wang Tingchen and Bai Guangen, and saw that he could annihilate these two Ming armies, but reinforcements came. The good news is that the reinforcements are Li Zhi, and Li Zhi's fifteen thousand Tiger Warrior Fire Gun Army can't be used in this mountain forest, and he may be able to hit Li Zhi hard.

If Li Zhi can really be severely damaged, the credit will be much greater than the annihilation of Wang Tingchen and Bai Guangen.

Zilharang looked at the generals under his command with a happy face and said, "Li Zhi has entered the mountains and forests!" ”

When the Eight Banners Mongolia's Zhenghuang Banner Gushan Ezhen Adai heard the news of Li Zhi's help, he was also overjoyed, and said with a smile: "Lord Wang, the firecrackers can't shoot in the mountains and forests. If I, the Qing Dynasty Iron Cavalry, rushed head-on against Li Zhi's firecrackers in the mountains and forests, a big victory could be expected. ”

The Yellow Banner First Class Melle Zhang Jingao laughed and said, "Lord Wang, Li Zhi finally made a mistake and drove the firecrackers into the mountains and forests to die. His eyes widened, and he said loudly: "Lord Wang, give me 10,000 step armor, and I will definitely crush all Li Zhi's soldiers and horses and kill them in the mountains and forests." ”

Ao Bai is a brave general of the Manchu Qing Dynasty with a yellow flag, who once followed the Huang Taiji to attack the Har Department and conquer Korea, and has many military exploits, and was awarded the title of "Baturu" by the Huang Taiji, which means warrior. In the battle of the Manchu Qing Dynasty to conquer Phi Island, he rushed to Phi Island under artillery fire and fought hand-to-hand with the Ming army on Phi Island on the beach, so that the Qing army behind could successfully land on the island, which can be described as the brave champion of the three armies.

Ao Bai knew that Li Zhi's troops were all firefighters and could not be used in the mountains and forests, so he wanted to use 10,000 cavalry to crush Li Zhi's troops. He is a brave general who charges into battle, and he has twelve points of confidence to rush into Li Zhi's military formation.

Seeing the battle, the Manchu generals glanced at each other, and felt more and more that this battle was won and undefeated. Ao Bai is such a brave character, rushing into Li Zhi's formation, can Li Zhi's soldiers and horses not be defeated?

Zilharang thought for a while and said, "Aobai, I will give you 5,000 foot armor, 5,000 horse armor, and 10,000 Mongolian cavalry, and you must defeat Li Zhi's soldiers and horses." ”

Zilharang gave Aobai 20,000 cavalry at one time. Seeing that Prince Zheng had given him so many soldiers and horses, Ao laughed and said, "The prince is waiting for my good news." ”

Other Manchu generals saw that Zierharang had given so many soldiers and horses, and they felt that this battle was even more secure. Unexpectedly, Li Zhi was so dominant for a while, that today he would faint and bring the firecrackers into the mountains and forests. After this war, I am afraid that there will be no more prestige of Li Zhi in the world.

Li Zhi can now be described as the courage of the Ming Dynasty, once the Tiger Ben Division is defeated, the Ming Dynasty's military horses will no longer have the courage to fight with the Qing army.

When I swept away the Ming army, I was coming back again.

The generals glanced at each other, their eyes full of excitement and joy.

Zilharang nodded, then beckoned his generals, and transferred 20,000 soldiers and horses to the command of Aobai. The 20,000 Tartars were fighting with the Ming army in the mountain col, when they suddenly saw the herald rush in and pass down the order to turn around and attack Li Zhi.

The Qing army was superior in numbers and could advance or retreat on the battlefield. When these Tartars received the military order, they abandoned the Ming army and retreated to the periphery. They mounted their horses and gathered around Aobai.

......

Two miles away from the Qing army, Li Zhi put out a circular formation.

In the mountains and forests, the cavalry of the Qing army could charge at any time, and Li Zhi's firecrackers could only fight fifty meters, so Li Zhi's formation was thicker. On each side of the Papering Array, there were four rows, each with more than 800 people. Each soldier occupies only half a meter of the width of the battlefield, and with the artillery, each side of the Paperback Formation is no more than five hundred meters.

Li Zhi estimated that the Qing army would storm the front of the Formation Formation, and put all the 2,500 veterans of the Forward Regiment on the front to strengthen the strength of the front.

After setting up the formation, Li Zhi asked the soldiers to move on.

The 15,000 soldiers of the Tiger Ben Division walked in the mountains and forests with their heads held high, forcing towards the Qing army two miles away.

After walking for a while, the scouts in front of him ran back to report the news.

"Uncle, the cavalry of the Qing army has pressed over!"

Li Zhi asked, "How many cavalry are there?" ”

The scout said, "There are countless in the mountains and forests, and I am afraid there are more than 10,000 of them. ”

Li Zhi waved his hand and said, "Everyone loads." The cannon unloads the gun carriage and loads the shotgun! ”

The riflemen quickly loaded their rifles, and the gunners unloaded the carts and loaded the shotguns into the barrels.

As soon as the ammunition was loaded, a rumbling horse's hooves were heard in front of me. The sound of the horse's hooves was like a continuous thunderclap, overwhelmingly overpowered, as if to trample through the vast land. Li Zhi stood at the middle army of the Tiger Division, and felt that the ground seemed to tremble slightly in the sound of horses' hooves.

The Tartars are going to use their cavalry to storm the rifle formations of the Tiger Division!

The sound of the horse's hooves grew louder and louder, and it pressed straight towards the tiger master. Even the soldiers of the Tiger Division, who had high morale, couldn't help but change color slightly and become nervous in such a rumbling sound of iron hooves. After all, this is a mountain forest, and a rifle can only shoot thirty paces.

After a while, Li Zhi had already seen the cavalry of the Qing army in the mountains and forests. Only a desolate conch horn sounded in front, and then the other conch horns sounded one after another, and the dull sound of horses' hooves suddenly became louder.

The Tartars drew their sabers and began their charge for the last hundred paces.

Behind the mountains and forests, the Qing soldiers rushed out. Li Zhi looked at it and was stunned. Where is this 10,000 people? That's at least 20,000 cavalry.

Twenty thousand Hu'er rushed towards the Tiger's circle, with Tartar infantry in front, double-layered heavy vests in the back, and Mongolian archers with horn bows in the back. With their horses' hooves flying, the cavalry shuttled through the woods and rushed at great speed towards the fourth tier of the Tiger Division's ranks.

A war horse can easily weigh six or seven hundred catties, plus the weight of the cavalry is close to eight hundred catties, it can be said that it is a tank of this era. Not to mention the cavalry's bow and horse fighting skills, this impact alone is enough to kill. If an adult man were to be hit by such a cavalry at high speed with his bare hands, he would immediately be knocked into the air and killed.

Even if they are not killed, if they are trampled by the hooves of the military horses, the infantry will be seriously injured with broken bones. In this era, cavalry was far stronger than infantry.

Twenty thousand Tartars rushed fifty meters in front of the Tiger Ben Division, and the distance was so close, Li Zhi had already seen the sweat on the noses of those military horses, saw the sabers on the crooked hands of the Tartars, and saw the hideous smiles on the faces of the Tartars.

The Tartars have had enough of the hardships of the Tiger Benshi over the years, and at this time, when they saw the Tiger Benshi burrowing into the mountains and forests, they were very excited one by one, and wanted to use the saber to get rid of their shame.

Li Zhi waved his hand, and a swan sound echoed through the valley. The soldiers of the Election Regiment in front raised their rifles with bayonets and fired at the Manchu cavalry that was charging into formation.

Only crackling gunfire was heard, and eight hundred and fifty riflemen in front opened fire on the Tartar cavalry.
