Chapter 147: Fearless of Death
The horses of the Laizhou Army were carefully cared for in peacetime, and they were always fed with refined grain mixed with salt. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Even on the way to Beijing Qinwang, he still consumed horse material so lavishly.
Of course, to be able to achieve such a solid military supply, Wang Rui arranged in advance in the various grain stores along the Beijing Division, which played an unexpected role as a military station.
Hey, it seems that no matter what era, no matter what you do, it's still a sentence: it's good to be rich!
However, Fang Yuan, who personally participated in the layout of grain stores in various states and counties along the line, did not see it that way! This Lord Wang seemed to know in advance that something big would happen in Jingshi this winter, so he made arrangements in advance.
What the fuck is this? Unpredictable prophets, unpredictable powers!
Therefore, although the war horses of the Laizhou army trekked all the way through the state and the capital, because they were extremely well fed, the physical strength of these war horses still far surpassed the war horses of the Manchu Tartars.
Not long after Unag and the others just started to urge the war horses, they found that the cavalry of the Laizhou Army, which had already run out of speed, had already rushed to them with a snowy saber!
"Kill, kill the dog!" Unag also raised his saber and headed towards the cavalry led by Tang Xiaoxian.
"When did the Han people have such a strong iron horse?" Looking at the cavalry of the Laizhou Army who were not afraid of death, Unag couldn't help but muttered in his heart.
He had also fought countless battles with the Ming army before, and he had also witnessed the extremely powerful Ming army.
For example, the Qi family army and the white pole soldiers during the bloody battle of the Hunhe River, the heroism of generously dying, and the fearless tenacity in the face of a desperate situation were deeply imprinted in his mind.
The Ming army in front of him is obviously very similar to these two elite soldiers of the Ming Dynasty. The same tenacity, the same heroism, the same fearlessness of death! But Unag always felt something different.
What's the difference? Eyes! Yes, it's the eyes! Unag marveled at his discovery.
During the bloody battle of the Hunhe River, the Qi family army and the white pole soldiers had more despair and tragedy in their eyes. But this Ming army obviously flashed with firm confidence and excitement in his eyes!
Well, and equipment! The Qi family army seems to be better, and the armor and weapons are quite neat. What about the Ming soldiers who used long white poles? But he was completely in tatters, not much different from a beggar who went around begging for food.
But what about the Ming army in front of you? Everyone was dressed in bright steel armor and wore helmets made of stainless steel. Underneath the armor were thick new cotton clothes and trousers.
The experienced Unag only needs to glance at it and decide in his mind: this is a rich army! It is estimated that the Imperial Forest Army of the Ming Emperor is nothing more than that.
At the moment when Unag was thinking wildly, the leading young Ming officer had already rushed in front of him like lightning, and the sharp saber slashed at him like a poisonous snake.
Unag didn't have time to think about it, and raised the scimitar in his hand to pick it up. Hearing only the sound of "Zheng", Unag only felt a light in his hand, and his scimitar suddenly broke into two pieces, and the front half of the blade flew diagonally into the ground.
After that, Unag felt a pain in the back of his head, and his eyes were blind in an instant, so he fell in the direction of the horse's head in a daze. Obviously, he was knocked on the back of the head with the backhand of the Ming army officer with the back of his knife.
This quick-eyed officer of the Ming Army was Tang Xiaoxian, who was at the forefront of the charge. When he saw Unag rushing towards him, he was sure that this man must be a captive official, so he took a lot of strength with him.
The steel knife in his hand, which was made of high-quality steel that was ahead of his time, coupled with the huge kinetic energy brought by the war horse running to the peak, he didn't expect to cut Unag's scimitar at once.
At the moment of slashing Unag's scimitar, he deftly flicked his wrist back, and the back of the saber slammed into the back of Unag's head.
Tang Xiao didn't care about Unag who fell to the ground, directly withdrew his saber, and continued to kill the Tartar soldiers in front.
However, the scene of Unag falling to the ground once again shattered the confidence of these newly assembled Mongol Tatar soldiers.
The war horses under their crotches did not have the speed to run, and the weapons in the hands of many people were also lost in the escape just now, and at this time, they no longer had the ambition to fight the cavalry of the Laizhou army.
Except for a few dozen armed Tartars who chose to continue the charge, many more began to turn their horses and flee to the north.
These dozens of charging Tartar soldiers collided with the cavalry of the Laizhou Army advancing like a wall.
Their loose queue and the speed of the horses that had not yet run away suddenly made them suffer a big loss. More than half of them were smashed to the ground by the cavalry of the Laizhou Army on the spot.
Of course, there were still more than a dozen particularly fierce Tartar soldiers, relying on their skillful riding skills and many years of combat experience, hacked and wounded more than a dozen cavalry of the Laizhou Army against them.
But their good fortune came to an abrupt end, as a group of Laizhou cavalry rushed at the back with lightning speed. The same is like a wall, the same is not afraid of death!
In just a few moments, these brave Laizhou cavalry chopped off all these fish that slipped through the net.
These Tartar soldiers who listened to Unag's orders and turned around to hedge with the Laizhou Army seemed to have countless "***" running through their hearts when they were dying, and they really had the hearts of the eighteenth generation of Unag's ancestors!
Damn, if Lao Tzu had jumped on the horse and fled, he would have run away a long time ago. Follow your stupid donkey and rush away, your life will be washed away!
Tang Xiaoxian and the cavalry team of 100 led by him were like a piece of dog skin plaster that could not be shaken off, and they desperately slashed behind the cavalry who turned around and fled, and soon cut down more than 200 people to the ground.
"Xiao Xian, can you do it?" Wang Rui noticed the victory on Tang Xiaoxian's side and shouted from afar.
"Don't worry, sir! This little Tartar, we can still handle it! Tang Xiaoxian replied loudly as he slashed a slow-running Tartar soldier into the air.
"Good! Just fight according to the predetermined tactics. Crush anyone who dares to gather and be full of devils! Wang Rui pointed his long knife and led the guards to rush towards another crowded place.
The cavalry of the Laizhou army was divided into fifteen hundred-man teams, and with Wang Rui's personal guards as the blade, they rushed the fleeing Mongol Tatar soldiers on the left and right flanks of Manchu.
Because the cavalry and horses of the Laizhou army were more vigorous, they ran faster, and soon these Mongolian deserters who had lost their organization and fighting spirit died in a daze at the hands of the new recruits of the Laizhou army, who had stepped on the battlefield for the first time.
The blood and screams of the enemy completely unleashed the murderous aura that these cavalrymen had held back in the previous arduous training.
Shouting and screaming excitedly, they rushed into the fleeing crowd and slashed at the backs of the Mongol Tatars.
The edge of the sword is sharpened, and the military power is from the enemy! Through this killing and victory, the cavalry of the Laizhou army began to build up the confidence of invincibility in their hearts.
