In the face of the flank attack of the Tartar iron cavalry, the volunteers hid in a chariot formation composed of knife carts, two-wheeled vehicles and other chariots, and counterattacked with Fran machine guns, tiger squat cannons, swarm of bee rockets, self-generated bird guns, bird guns, and bows and crossbows.

But the cavalry came and went like the wind, and it was very difficult to kill the Tartar cavalry galloping on the war horse.

Now the Tartar cavalry leaped over all odds and fought their way to the front.

Those who dodged the attacks of tiger cannons and flintlock muskets rushed to the front of the knife cart and two-wheeled carriage, but a wolf whith appeared in front of them, and under the protection of the rattan player, they stabbed the rushing Tartar through a wolf whisk about two feet long.

A few lucky people hurriedly lifted the reins of their horses, and some even jumped over and jumped into the formation, but three or five axemen, pikemen, and boring handles quickly surrounded them, and then slashed and slashed back and forth, and chopped horses' legs, chopped horses' legs, chopped horses' knights, and so on.

With the hand-to-hand encounter, the tiger squat gunner quickly adjusted the attack target, aimed the muzzle of the gun at the crowded place, and fired the cannon continuously

The grenadiers around him also threw the earth-shattering thunderbolts into the herd, and many people were killed and injured when they neighed on their horses. The flintlock musketeers, on the other hand, fired at the Tartar cavalry who entered the formation and at the Tartar cavalry outside the position.

The assault position left the Tartar cavalry with heavy casualties, but even so, due to the tight time frame and the cunning of the Tartars, the Volunteers were able to break through several passes.

Different from other people's training, Yang Xuan attaches great importance to the actual confrontation exercise, especially after the defeat of Haoge into Sichuan the year before last, he feels that what he is really afraid of is the Manchurian and Mongolian cavalry of the Tartars, so he has strengthened the infantry and cavalry drills, so that each squad is still up to some skills against cavalry.

In the face of a small number of Tartar cavalry entering the formation, the opponent did not panic, and unlike other infantry, the whole army was scattered in the face of the cavalry that rushed over.

Seeing the Tartar cavalry entering, there were only two horses in front and behind, and the three reckless men did not seem flustered at all, brandishing a big knife and standing in front with two wolf warriors, and everyone desperately waved a wolf whisk about two and a half feet long to block the cavalry impulse.

Even the people and horses are more than 1,000 catties, although the wolf is strong, but the war horse rushes over and the momentum is too great, and the big black man next to the wolf still can't resist, and he screams and retreats a few steps.

But also because the black big man desperately resisted, it also slowed down the momentum of the war horse, and took this opportunity, the wolf man on the left took two steps back and reformed the defense line with the big black one, and the three recklesss stood in front and waved the spear in their hands to stop the Tartar cavalry rushing over.

The big hand tightened the reins of the horse and rushed twice, but it was still unsuccessful, and seeing that the front was not a tartar, the rider wanted to rush from the left, but the wolf was two and a half feet long, and it was not so easy to get rid of the wolf attack.

In addition, on the left, Li Fatzi led two soldiers to meet him, one of them held a rattan plaque, blocking the left and right, blocking the Tartar's spear, while Li Fatzi waved the boring palladium in his hand and smashed it at the horse.

The Tartar rider was obviously frightened, and was about to tighten the reins of his horse and prepare to flee, when suddenly a man came out from the right, wielding a half-meter-long chopping knife viciously, and slashed at the hind legs of the warhorse.

Because it is a special chopping knife, it is very sharp, and the horse's leg is cut in half with a knife, and the war horse can't support it at all and falls to the ground, and the knight on horseback also falls to the side.

Before the rider could get up from the ground, two soldiers rushed over and killed the Tartar cavalry, and the surrounding soldiers cheered one by one.

According to the principle of merit of the volunteers, if the infantry kills a rider, everyone in the squad will be awarded three collective merits, and the soldier who kills the head of the Tartar will be awarded one more credit.

Now I see the Tartar cavalry constantly coming, one by one, I am very happy, there are grenadiers in front of me who keep throwing thunder with handles to block the Tartar cavalry, and there are musketeers behind me to cover, it seems that the brothers have sent it today, and they can make a few more contributions.

Seeing that the rushing Tatar cavalry was preparing to slaughter the recalcitrant volunteer soldiers, under the leadership of some squadron leaders and group leaders, everyone climbed up the hills on both sides under the cover of earth-shaking thunder and flintlock guns, and then relied on the dangerous obstacles on the hillside to counterattack.

Faced with the Volunteers who occupied the hills, relied on chariots to block the main roads, and were now hiding in the chariot formation, the Tartar cavalry battalion was in a bitter battle, and everyone was aimlessly firing arrows and guns in front of the formation, and now the only expectation was the heavy infantry behind.

Unlike the Mongol cavalry, the Manchu Niulu had 17 heavy infantry, which was mainly responsible for destroying the opponent's fortifications on the battlefield, clearing obstacles, and providing support for the cavalry charge.

But by the time the Tartar heavy infantry felt the battlefield, the two sides were already in a scuffle, and it was even more difficult to easily destroy the obstacles in front of them.

Guo Chonglie, the deputy general of the 3rd town, shouted loudly, and cheered up the soldiers below by roaring loudly.

Although the third town belongs to the establishment of the second type of town, the whole town has a total of 3 pacesetters and horses, but there are only more than 7,000 people who can fight, although they have already been ready for battle, although the mountains are stacked everywhere, and the hills are dense, but now they have to face the impact of thousands of Manchurian white flags, and there are many problems.

As the saying goes, if you don't want to attack it, although the 3rd town has already made careful preparations and has a lot of fortifications today, some passes on the battlefield are still constantly broken through by the Tartar iron cavalry and killed in.

What Guo Chonglie can do now is to command the reserve force to respond and consolidate the position, so as not to be passive on the whole front and form a rout.

The soldiers of the 3rd town relied on the passes, hillsides, and chariot formations to fight back and forth with the Manchurian iron cavalry that rushed over, and now everyone's greatest expectation is that the reinforcements of the 9th town can be killed as soon as possible to counterattack the Tartar iron cavalry from the flank.

Standing on the hill in the distance, after seeing the 3rd town blocking the first round of the Tartar Iron Cavalry's charge, everyone rejoiced, and everyone looked happy.

Yang Xuan put down the binoculars and looked at the people beside him, "Everyone, this general is a soldier, everyone is amazing, but there are no more than two kinds on the battlefield.

First of all, there is actual combat training, and now all towns and battalions have actual combat training in the face of intensive cavalry charges. Everyone is trained and has a good heart, and they will no longer panic in the face of the Tartar iron cavalry charge as they did in the past.

Secondly, it is necessary to leave more reserves on the battlefield. The Manchu Tartars were very cunning, and the rogues were not lazy, often keeping the most elite troops in reserve.

On the battlefield, no matter how beautiful the plan is, it just stays in the mind, and there is no complete consistency in the real fight.

If you keep more reserves, you will be able to temporarily respond to possible changes and ensure that the battlefield is foolproof. ”

When everyone heard this, they all nodded yes, and the deputy capital supervisor Chen Ji said: "What the adults say is just a few words, and it is really difficult to do it."

Adults use soldiers like this, of course, they can ensure that nothing goes wrong. ”

Everyone laughed, and Wu Yanghu, the commander of the army next to him, pointed to the battlefield and said: "The advantage of cavalry lies in rapid mobility, in cavalry shooting, in the sprinting of war horses, and in the condescending battle of knights.

In order to deal with the northern cavalry, our Han people have always relied on the chariot formation, relying on the position of the battle to counterattack, with the appearance of the two-wheeled carriage, we can not only move quickly, but also quickly rely on the two-wheeled carriage formation, the knife cart layout of the military formation, so that the Tartar cavalry to easily enter, relying on the war horse to sprint, relying on the war horse condescending to kill and injure our Han people is quite difficult.

Now with the Tiger Squat Cannon, it is difficult for the Tartar cavalry to concentrate quickly through artillery bombardment, forming an overall advantage, there are earth-shattering thunder and flintlock muskets that can not only kill and injure the Tartar cavalry, but also blur the Tartar vision, so that the power of the Tartar cavalry is greatly reduced, even if the Tartars rush into our army's vehicle formation, but they will have to pay too much price. ”

Gao Wengui, the combat staff officer next to him, said with a smile: "Lord Wang, the advantage of the Tatars' rapid mobility in this hilly area is not very obvious, although both sides have suffered heavy casualties, but even if the two sides exchange their lives for their lives in this way, we have more people and fewer Tartars, and we are not afraid of each other."

Wang Fuzhi, the head of the palace, sighed: "Lord, in the face of the northern cavalry, my Han people have always been in a congenital weakness, in the past, they have always relied on the city pass, using the car array to contend with it, if the real field battle, even if the casualties are more than four times, it is considered a victory."

In the face of the Tartar field today, the casualties on both sides are probably maintained at the level of one to one, so it seems that we have taken advantage of it."

Yang Xuan smiled and said: "Everyone, this king implements the knowledge of the master, everyone can read and hyphenation, and everyone can grasp certain natural laws, and everyone has a lot of complaints about this."

Looking at it today, the victory on the battlefield is not only determined by the fact that we are a just war, not only because of the effective command of our commander, not only because of the officers and men of the three armed forces, but more importantly, our civilization, material civilization is far stronger than that of the other side.

Not only do we have the money to reward meritorious soldiers, we can not only make excellent agricultural tools and tools for the people, but also make weapons that surpass and control each other, and only in this way can we regard the ethnic minorities in the north as barbarian peoples.

If not, we are a bit like the king in Yoro's arrogance, except that the king says how big his land is, and we boast about how prosperous our own civilization is. ”

Wang Fuzhi was quite touched and said: "Lord, the minister has always advocated the application of learning, and in the past I have always felt that there are few peacemakers, but today I listen to the words of the prince, and I feel that what the prince said is really into the wood."

Although I implemented the imperial examination in the Ming Dynasty, in addition to being able to do moral articles, many of them could not try cases, and many of them could not govern one party, which made the people feel quite resentful.

The prince improved the imperial examination system, not only to promote new learning, so that everyone can learn arithmetic, decrees, and physics, but also to reform the policy of Moyi and the scriptures, so that the selected scholars are the real sages. ”

While everyone was talking, the staff officer on the watchtower car came to report that thousands of Tartar iron horsemen were coming around from behind, and the purpose was nothing more than the water army camp or the big tent of the Chinese army of the volunteers.

Everyone looked quite nervous when they heard this, and they begged for troops to be deployed to defend it, and it was necessary to protect the safety of the Chinese army's tent no matter what.
