Since the Wei army became an army, it has relied on firearms very much, as long as the Wei soldiers heard the roar of the copper cannons, they felt particularly powerful, just hearing the sound of the cannons, the Wei soldiers were in high spirits and their morale was uplifted.

The C battalion of the Wei army, each battalion was equipped with two copper cannons dragged by healthy horses, twelve cannons were fired from both wings, the shells brought up gunsmoke, whistling out, cross-firing into the enemy group, the sea of cavalry, suddenly splashed a puff of loess and dust, the Qing cavalry horse that was hit stumbled and directly threw out the cavalry above.

On the Wei army's front, the soldiers immediately cheered in unison, "Mighty!" ”

Compared with the Wei army, the cavalry of the Qing army was in a state of discouragement, bowed down, and rushed forward.

Under the banner of the Chinese army, Ao Bai frowned slightly, he had heard of the Wei army's copper cannons, self-generated fire guns, and siege mortars that could fire explosive shells, as well as the Wei army's new fire gun horizontal formation and hollow phalanx, the Qing army was also imitating, and there were military formations to restrain the Wei army's formation, but he had not yet understood them one by one.

The Wei army has a lot of advanced weapons, but due to the level of production capacity and resource constraints, the elite battalions are mainly equipped with advanced weapons. After all, with the production capacity at this time, it is almost impossible to build equipment equipped with more than 300,000 Wei troops in a year or two.

After Aobai broke into Yongliang, the main opponents were the local garrison battalions of the Wei army, as well as a small number of C battalions, and the real elite soldiers of the Wei army were actually in Guanzhong.

At this time, Ao Bai looked at the Wei artillery, a little surprised, but more than ten cannons, although the momentum was terrifying, but obviously could not stop the cavalry charge.

The cannonballs smashed into the Qing army's formation, splashing up pillars of mud, and the speed of the horse army did not slow, and they opened their bows and arrows one after another, wound up the arrows, and prepared to shoot a wave of arrows after approaching.

At this moment, in front of the Wei army's front, the red cloth on several vehicles was lifted, leaking dense rockets, and the Wei soldiers ignited the rockets and immediately ran back, and a cloud of gunpowder smoke rose from the vehicles, and then countless rockets "swished" out.

The arrows dragged the tail flames, scurrying in the array, bringing up strips of smoke, and the gunpowder boosted the arrows to whizz out, shooting at the oncoming Qing cavalry at an angle that could not be fathomed.

The cavalry of the Qing army who rushed in front was shot by a rocket, or the frightened corpse of the war horse, the horse and the knight rose into the air at the same time, smashed heavily on the ground, rolled far away, and the cavalry behind continued to charge, and the war horse passed the cavalry who fell from the horse and howled, the hooves rumbled, and the distance between the two armies was quickly narrowed.

Ao Bai saw this twitch on his face, the king of Zasak County of the Ordos Department, Ao Bai Chen, once told Hao Ge and Ao Bai and others that the Wei army's weapons have a long range, artillery, rockets, firearms, earth-shattering thunder and other equipment are combined, the firepower is layered on top of each other, and the cavalry shooting around the Wei army is to find his own death, but Ao Bai did not believe it, he insisted that Ao Phochen was to cover up his incompetence, and deliberately exaggerated the combat power of the Wei army.

Now it seems that Ephochen is still very honest and does not exaggerate, but Ao Bai has no intention of stopping.

The Wei army's firearms are powerful, I don't believe you can't finish shooting, and our horse army is coming wave after wave, the front is frustrated, and the second echelon will continue to move forward, see how you resist.

"Firebolt! Put! At this time, in the Wei army's array, Zhao Daxian suddenly shouted when the Qing cavalry rushed out of the smoke belt caused by the rocket.

The sound of suona and drums sounded in the array, and the firecrackers who heard the order raised their firearms flatly, squinted sideways, and their eyes burst with fierce essence.

As the gunners of the army, they mainly listen to the command of the step drum and suona in the queue, the drum command the non-commissioned soldier loading, and the suona command launch, retreat and forward.

At this time, a high-pitched suona sounded, and the front of the Wei army suddenly "bang bang" sounded into a piece, lifted into a straight line of guns, and shook almost at the same time, and the guns spewed out flames and guns, and the air waves brought up by thousands of bullets made a scream in the air, and the Qing army and horses who had just rushed out of the smoke belt fell down in an instant.

After the firing was completed, the Wei army front was filled with gunsmoke, and the gunners moved neatly and uniformly to hold the firecrackers upright in front of their chests, and before they had time to check the results, they retreated from the gap between the rear row of soldiers and reloaded, and at this time, the second row of soldiers had already checked the firerope and stepped forward with guns.

The Wei soldiers moved neatly, and in the face of thousands of horse troops swarming, they were still unflustered and stuck to their posts, which can be said to be a well-deserved elite.

Among the elite, many soldiers have only been incorporated into the Wei army for more than a year, and the Wei army is already very experienced in how to train firearms, and they can train firecrackers who can go to the battlefield within a year.

The Wei army's guns continued to shoot, I don't know how many Qing troops fell to the ground, the Wei army's volley of projectiles, almost formed an impermeable strong, so that the Qing army rushing forward seemed to have bumped into something, the war horse and the corpse in the Wei army within fifty steps in front of the formation, spread all over the ground, the more the corpse went forward, the denser it became.

Under the blows of various firearms, the 2,000 cavalry of the first echelon of the Qing army lost five or six hundred cavalry, and finally rushed to within 30 steps in front of the Wei army.

Their goal was not to ram the Wei army's spear formation and engage in hand-to-hand combat, but to disrupt the Wei army's formation with cavalry and create opportunities for the heavy cavalry to charge into battle.

At this time, after suffering many blows, the cavalry of the Qing army finally reached the distance of counterattacking with a cavalry bow, but the cannon bombardment, rocket scurrying, and volley fire had made the cavalry of the first echelon frightened, in order to quickly break away from the Wei army front, the Eastern Mongolian feudal soldiers hurriedly pulled the bowstring on the horse, and hastily shot an arrow at the smoke-filled Wei army front in the middle, and then pulled out the reins of the horse, and the cavalry was divided into two groups, and one ran back in a roundabout way.

With the quality of the Mongolian horse army, a salvo of a horse within thirty paces could basically achieve no missing arrows, but because of panic and smoke obscuring the vision, only a small number of people in the Wei army were hit by arrows.

But the Wei soldiers didn't have time to rejoice, at the moment when the first echelon of cavalry, pulling out their horses and spreading to both sides, and detouring backwards, the second echelon followed the first echelon and galloped to the front of the Wei army's front.

Because the first echelon of the Qing army blocked most of the attacks of artillery, rockets and firearms, and the second echelon suffered small losses, so when the second wave of arrows came, the target was obviously much higher, and the arrows were much denser.

The arrows thrown by the Qing army covered the spear array of the Wei army, and the arrows were shot at the Wei spearmen wearing saucer-shaped iron helmets, and the arrows clanged.

The spearmen wearing heavy armor squatted on the ground, bowed their heads and held their spears, unmoved, but under the dense arrows, even if they were wearing heavy armor, there were still soldiers who fell to the ground and wailed, and the Wei army's spear array was loosened.

At this time, Ao Bai stared intently at the attack of the Qing cavalry, and in his opinion, he could accept the losses of the Qing army before approaching the Wei army's big array.

When the Wei artillery roared and smashed into the Qing army's formation, splashing clumps of dirt and the war horses fell one after another, Ao Bai was only surprised by the range of the Wei army's artillery, but he was not panicked.

When the cavalry of the Qing army fell from their horses one after another under the fire of rockets and firearms, Ao Bai was just a little painful, but he was still calm.

Because he knew that when these were over, it would be the turn of the Qing cavalry to counterattack, and all that was left was massacre, and the Qing army could make the Wei army pay even more heavy losses.

Seeing the Wei army's spear array, loosened under the attack of the cavalry, a smile appeared on Ao Bai's face.

At this time, the second echelon of the Qing army, under the bombardment of the Wei army's firearms, dispersed again, and finally revealed the heavy cavalry of the third echelon.

The cavalry of the Qing army seemed to open two doors in a row, revealing the fierce face of the heavy cavalry of the Qing army, holding a spear and wearing armor, the heavy cavalry of the Qing army galloped on horseback, and the cavalry lowered the cavalry spear, aimed at the spear of the Wei army squatting on the ground, and directly rushed into it.

At this moment, the "boom" in front of the formation exploded, and the Qing cavalry was swept away, but the heavy cavalry behind couldn't brake and still crashed into the Wei spear formation.

In an instant, the Qing army's heavy cavalry was like a heavy hammer, smashing the Wei army's front into a depression, knocking several rows of spearmen away in a row, but in the end it was blocked by the Wei army.

The heavy cavalry of the Qing army could not help but be the kind of iron cans of the Jin Kingdom, but only the cavalry wearing armor and horses wearing a set of cotton armor, and the ability to charge into battle was still lacking.

As soon as they entered the battle, after losing their speed, they were immediately besieged by the Wei soldiers, who poked the cavalry with spearmen and stabbed their horses, and the Qing army immediately suffered heavy losses.

This is not a Mongolian soldier, but the Eight Banners of the Qing Army, Ao Bai's cheeks twitched, and he couldn't rush to open the infantry formation with a piece of cavalry, and suddenly waved his hand, "Withdraw, rush again!" ”

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a sudden exclamation behind him, "It's not good, there is another Wei army coming from the east!" ”

Ao Bai turned back suddenly, and saw a cloud of dust raised behind the eastern mound, but it was Gao Yigong in the direction of Yan'an, leading 5,000 men and horses to feel it.

In an instant, Ao Bai finally panicked, and it seemed that he was really surrounded.

Gao Yili led 5,000 Wei troops to join the battle group, and immediately drove the Qing army on the hill down.

"How?" Gao Yigong found Liu Tichun, who was sitting on the ground gasping, and couldn't help asking.

"You're just in time! There's no problem on my side, and Zhao Dudu in the west is also powerful, and he has already taken over a horse army raid from the Tartars! Liu Tichun stood up and gasped.

Gao Yigong looked forward and saw that Zhao Daxian's military formation was complete, and the Qing soldiers who were charging into the formation were retreating.

"Good!" Gao Yigong sighed, then pulled out the knife and said to Liu Tichun: "You rest for a while, I'll cover it from behind!" ”
