Just when everyone was in despair, they suddenly heard the watchtower car observation sentry on the top of the mountain shouting excitedly: "Brothers, we are saved, brothers, the lord personally led the reinforcements to kill." Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info"
I don't know where the strength comes from, Wang Zhibang, who was still sick just now, rushed to the slope with an arrow step, raised the telescope and looked into the distance, far away, two or three miles away, the loyal and righteous army was in vogue, and then tens of thousands of loyal and righteous troops rushed to kill all over the world.
At the same time, Nikan appeared as reinforcements from the Loyal and Righteous Army, gritted his teeth, and said to a few Jialamas around him: "Brothers, what the Loyal and Righteous Army relies on is nothing more than the sharpness of firearms, but only a military formation.
On this plain, Yang Xuan didn't even plan in advance, dared to attack my Manchurian Eight Banners, and no matter what, he had to suffer a little before everyone retreated. ”
Nikan led the only two Jiala around him to rush towards the loyal army, just rushed out of the two sides of the distance of more than 400 meters, suddenly saw a flower bullet fall in the formation, the huge fireball generated after the explosion devoured the surrounding horses and knights, Nikan clearly felt the earth trembling, felt the surrounding projectiles flying.
Nikan looked intently and saw that the opposing soldiers and horses were gathering in a panic, and more than a dozen Francophone cannons in the distance were transported to the small hillsides and fired in the distance.
Nikan felt a palpitation, pulled out his sword, and shouted again and again: "Rush me, as long as you rush over and fight with each other, you can fight to your heart's content." ”
But to Nikan's surprise, when he rushed to 200 steps, the opponent was desperately relying on tricycles and bicycles to temporarily set up a line of defense.
Due to the tight schedule, the opponent's defense line has not yet been completed, and if everyone charges desperately, it may still be possible to tear through the front line, just like when they faced Guo Chonglie's 3rd Town.
Nikan's heart was tight, if the other party set up a line of defense, waiting for his own soldiers would have a nightmare, thinking of this, Nikan patted the war horse and killed it.
Rushing to eighty paces away, everyone opened their bows and prepared to shoot, but at this moment, the smoke in front of them was billowing and the gunshots were bursting, different from the gunshots in the past, this time the gunshots were very loud, the other party released guns a hundred meters away, and the power of the guns was even more surprising, and the horses without much armor could be easily shot at a hundred meters away, and the riders wearing two layers of armor on the horseback could be easily shot.
Due to the fact that in the past, the Ming army was mostly equipped with light bird guns, whether it was an ordinary bird gun of 12 meters, or a so-called big bird gun that was lengthened to 15 meters, although it was convenient to operate, but the power was limited, and the ordinary bird gun was 4o5o meters to break the armor.
The Manchu Tartars obviously didn't know that the Loyal Army Guard Town had just been equipped with a hundred turtledoves with heavy muskets, which could easily kill the riders who were clamping their war horses more than a hundred meters away and were about to release arrows.
In order to better wield the heavy arquebus of the turtledove foot gun, as well as the improved power of the 15ocm large bird gun, the Loyal and Righteous Army has now formed a guard battalion, and the whole battalion is equipped with firearms.
In each battalion, one squadron is equipped with turtledove-footed guns, one squadron is equipped with large rumi guns, and one squadron is equipped with regular bird guns.
In the past, everyone was mainly worried about the close-range killing of the tiger squat cannon, but now they actually encountered the turtledove's foot gun again, which obviously disrupted the combat rhythm of the Tartar cavalry.
Rushing through the smoke from the explosion of the Tiger Squat Cannon, everyone desperately hit the horses and did not rush a few steps, and then they were fired by the large Lumi Gun Squadron and the Ordinary Bird Gun Squadron.
Although the war horse moves quickly, the target is very large, after a round of shooting, more than ten war horses in front of them fell to the ground, and the sound of people and horses hitting the ground is even more clearly audible.
This caused the knights behind to tighten the reins of their horses, but it was too late, the Tartar cavalry of the opposing musketeers rushed over and kept aiming and shooting, although a few cavalry rushed over, but before they could get closer, the opponent threw several thunderbolts with handles, and the sound of explosions, the whole horse was blown to the ground in the explosion.
Even if a few people rushed over, they were blocked by the infantry of the loyal army, and after a fight, the war horse was put to the ground, and one or two strong men rushed forward and brandished a large sword to easily kill the knight on horseback.
Nikan felt himself trapped in a spiral nest, blocked by the chariots at close range, blocked by the killers, shot by the birdmen, shot by the turtledoves and large rumi guns that had just been equipped in the army at a medium and long distance, and at a greater distance by the large Furlong cannons, which were fired very quickly because of the use of the son-and-mother guns, and the opponents tried to divide themselves with artillery fire.
Nikan led his troops back and forth, and on several occasions almost approached the hillside where the opponent's artillery was located, but was immediately scattered by more soldiers and horses.
In the past, in the face of hordes of cavalry on the plain, the Ming army often collapsed, and the soldiers of the loyal army were not afraid of death one by one, although they also used tricycles and bicycles to form a military formation, but in the process of fighting, they became more and more courageous.
Seeing that the number of Qing troops in front of the battle was small, some soldiers actually jumped over the car formation to kill, some soldiers waved long wolf whisks to attract the attention of the riders, and some people suddenly came out coldly, shouting and slashing at the horse's legs and slashing at the horse's head.
Seeing the war horses with broken legs and wailing on the ground everywhere, and seeing some of the war horses that had lost half of their necks and had already died, everyone was terrified.
Through the thin clouds, Nikan could see smoke burning everywhere, and heard hoarse shouts of killing.
In the process of hesitating, Nikan suddenly felt that things had changed, and when he was approaching the opponent's Chinese army with all his might, two lines of soldiers and horses were killing from the side, and the north was outflanking his own back road.
Nikan was not afraid to rush back and forth with a broadsword, and now the Manchus had occupied seven of them, and if they could kill the loyal army that posed the greatest threat to the Manchus in one fell swoop, even if this cavalry army was wiped out.
But the soldiers around gathered more and more, and everyone felt more and more laborious, and just when Nikan also felt discouraged, suddenly a puff of dust rose behind him, and dozens of cavalry killed him.
Nikan thought it was his own reinforcements, and some of them even regained their courage to kill the loyal army, and before they could take two steps, they suddenly felt that something was wrong, and it was not the Tartar cavalry who rushed over, but a cavalry brigade of the guard regiment.
The morale of the Tartar cavalry was devastated, and everyone fled one after another, but there were loyal and righteous troops everywhere, how could everyone let go of this opportunity.
The most embarrassing of these is Nikan, riding a tall horse, wearing a golden helmet and golden armor, which can also boost the morale of the whole army when attacking, and is a live target in the melee.
Seeing that he led his troops to retreat, many captains ignored the casualties to meet the past, and raised their bird guns from afar to release cold guns, although Zhang Jing next to him tried his best, but he had no choice but to have a lot of firearms and equipment, and he did not escape the fate of being shot after all. In history, Nikan was beheaded by Li Dingguo, and the main reason was probably that he was too ostentatious.
Li Guohan, the commander of the Han army, saw the loyal and righteous army killing all over the mountains, and wanted to fight to the death, but the soldiers under his command were not like this, and when they saw the cavalry of the loyal and righteous army coming, everyone threw away the artillery and fled to the back
The Tatar cavalry, which had lost the cover of artillery fire, were like headless flies, although they could still rely on the mobility of their horses to resist stubbornly, but the morale of the whole army was already very low, and under the attack of the loyal and righteous troops from all sides, the whole line retreated.
The Tartar cavalry was constantly surrounded, hacked to death.
