Chapter 179: General Wang is so courageous

The Qing army had 5,000 horses, and 10,000 horses galloped forward, like a rolling torrent, and the momentum was overwhelming.

The galloping scene of thousands of horses couldn't help but make all the soldiers in the Gao army's formation tremble a little, and their expressions were a little solemn.

Although the soldiers of the Gao army have also fought with the Tartars, and have gone through many major battles, and have been in the army for more than two years, it is also an indisputable fact that the Tartars are now powerful and prosperous, and they have reached the point where people can talk about their color change.

Li Zicheng, who was in the middle of the day, was defeated by the Qing army, which not only dealt a heavy blow to the Dashun army, but also dealt a big blow to the world.

Because after Li Zicheng captured Beijing, everyone in the world acquiesced that the Dashun Dynasty was better than the Ming Dynasty, and now Dashun was beaten down by the Qing army, so that the people of the world had a sense of powerlessness when facing the Qing army.

It's like a ghost, whether you see it or not, when you hear someone say it's terrifying, you naturally feel terrifying.

At this time, the scorching sun was in the sky, the sky was clear, and the high-ranking soldiers surrounded by low hills looked serious.

The defense of the high sergeants has been completed, and nearly 10,000 new attached battalions are standing behind the defense line composed of antlers and horses, and many archers and bird gunners have been lurked on the low hills on both sides.

Gao Yihuan watched the Qing army's iron cavalry rolling in, and two miles before the battle, the galloping cavalry gradually slowed down, and finally all stopped.

There were probably more than 5,000 Tartar cavalry, but there was the might of tens of thousands of troops.

These cavalry lined up in front of the formation, and in the middle was a snow-white figure, all wearing white armor and iron helmets on their heads.

Gao Yihuan looked down from the hillside, and only saw patches of lightning rods, which was daunting.

"Are you afraid of being struck by lightning?" Gao Yihuan cursed secretly in his heart, and looked at the two sides of the white-armored soldiers, who were gray, wearing messy clothes and armor, and Mongolian outturned soldiers with various helmets.

They don't look as good as the white armor, but they exude a savage and bloodthirsty aura on their bodies, which is also heart-wrenching.

At this time, the cavalry in the front row of the Qing army, the horse's head almost stopped in a line, and the personnel were silent, only the nostrils of the war horse were snorting, giving people an invisible coercion.

Gao Yihuan saw that the generals around him were a little nervous, and suddenly laughed.

He pressed the war knife in one hand and pointed to the Qing army in front of the battle with the other, and said left and right: "You see, Abatai's turtle grandson has sent us a war horse again." Ahaha~"

After hearing this, the expressions of several generals were immediately relieved, and they couldn't help laughing.

Yes, I'm afraid of an egg, and it's not that I haven't slaughtered a tartar.

When Gao Yihuan inspired his subordinates and assigned tasks, Abatai in front of the battle formation was peeking at Gao Yihuan's military formation.

"Gao Manzi will choose a place when he arrives." Abatai spat on the ground, glared fiercely at the handsome flag on the hill, and scolded.

Bei Zibo and Tuo rode up to follow, squinted in front of the formation, and frowned, "Amma, the high thief is cunning!" This terrain is flanked by low hills, on which there must be an ambush of archers, and the back of the infantry army is against the hills, and our horse army cannot charge. ”

The terrain chosen by Gao Yihuan is like a crescent moon and a pocket, the large array of infantry is at the bottom of the bag, and the low hills on both sides are at the mouth of the bag.

The semi-circular space, which severely limited the mobility of the cavalry, because the back was against the hill, so the cavalry could not kill them through at all.

Abatai also admitted that Gao Yihuan chose a good place, and if it were him, he would arrange it like this, but unfortunately, the army he faced was a Qing warrior, and in the face of absolute strength, any trick was useless.

It's like a child, in front of a strong man, first played a set of long punches, and then played a set of Baguazhang, but what's the use, a strong man can hammer him to death with one punch.

Abatai glanced at Gao Yihuan's infantry formation, the soldiers were not in good clothes, and they didn't stand well, and they also learned how to set up the formation.

Now Abatai was about to beat Gao Yihuan to death, and he sneered, "Gao Manzi is just pretending to be smart. Does he think that my Qing soldiers can only fight on horseback? Since he chose this place, let all his people die here! ”

After saying that, Abatai pulled the reins of his horse, ran back to his main formation, turned his head and pointed to a leader and shouted: "Keha, you lead 300 white armor and 600 vassal soldiers, concentrate the shields of the whole army and rush in, and disrupt the barbarian formation."

"Wow!" But Ha answered with a voice, and then pulled out his horse to mobilize people.

In a short time, more than 900 Tartars all turned over and dismounted. Ke Ha took a shield from the soldier's hand, drew the war knife at his waist without hesitation, let out a howl from his mouth, and called his subordinates loudly, and rushed to the Gao army's infantry without fear.

In the establishment of the Eight Banners, there are Manchu, Mongolian, and Han people, among which the Mongolian Eight Banners are mainly strong in cavalry, and the Han army is good at firearms, and the most powerful in foot combat is actually the real Manchuria.

They are a fishing and hunting people who live between the white mountains and black waters, and they are also very brave when they fight.

At this time, not long after the Qing army entered the customs, in addition to surrendering more than 50,000 people from Wu Sangui and Gao, and then Shanxi recruited a lot of border towns of the Ming Dynasty.

In the three mansions of Weihui, Huaiqing, and Zhangde, as well as the men and horses who captured Bai Wang, they were all used as cannon fodder by Duoduo to attack the Tiger Prison Pass.

More than 900 Tartars roared and charged, the Ming army and the Shun army were fighting more and more, and after the Qing army entered the customs, they did not meet their opponents.

They obviously don't have enough understanding of Gao Yihuan's subordinates.

The ignorant are fearless, the Tartars didn't take Gao Jun in their eyes at all, and the Tartar Leader even felt that his little men and horses were enough to crush the Gao Army.

Nearly a thousand Tartar soldiers wielded their weapons, walked to the front and back of the formation, and began to rush, all of them scrambling.

Gao Yihuan looked at them with a grim expression, and raised one hand high, "Shooter prepare!" ”

The flag on the hill waved, the war drums sounded, and the soldiers of the new attached battalion in front of the battle, seeing the momentum of the Tartars, couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva, and clenched their spears in their hands.

The bows and arrows and firecrackers who were lying in ambush on the hills on both sides leaned on the trees and mounds of earth to draw their bows into a full circle, ignite the firearms, and each looked for their own target.

By this time, the Tartars had already rushed in with shields to protect their bodies.

Gao Yihuan's hand didn't wave, and he waited until all the tartars were in his pocket before he waved his hand suddenly, "Shoot!" ”

On the low hills on both sides of "Woo Woo~", clouds of white smoke immediately rose up, projectiles shot by the fire gun, and arrows shot by the archers pierced the air and whistled towards the Tartars!

Abatai was riding on his horse, and when he heard the sound of the gun, he couldn't help but be shocked, the high thief actually had so many firearms, but then he sneered, "I knew that the barbarian put archers on both sides~"
