Chapter 117: The Formation of Vehicles Shows Its Might

Since the first battle with the Manchu Tartars, Chen Yue has never dared to despise the Manchu Tatars. The battle of Sarhu, the battle of Kaitie, the battle of Songjin, the Ming army was defeated successively, the Qi army, the white pole soldiers, the most famous army were wiped out by the Manchu Tartars, Zhao Shujiao, Man Gui, Yang Guozhu, Cao Bianjiao, dozens of generals and soldiers were killed, Sun Chengzong, Lu Xiangsheng and other famous ministers died in the hands of the Manchu Tartars.

All this is enough to say a lot. Some people may say that the Ming army is too weak, Chen Yue does not dare to deny this, because the Ming army in the last years of Chongzhen is indeed difficult to return, take the Beijing camp he is familiar with, usually do not take a drill once a month, most of the soldiers are like some peasants. The army of the nine sides is better than the Beijing camp, but it is also limited, that is, the strength of some generals is okay.

The Manchu Tartars are different from the Ming army, they are all real professional soldiers, especially the white armor soldiers in the Manchu Tartars, which are the elite of the elite, the elite soldiers who have been trained through countless bloody battles, and the elite of the Ming army has long died on the battlefield. This kind of bloody battle on the battlefield is not trivial, take Yang Zhengping, who is superb in martial arts, for example, if he talks about martial arts, he is naturally above many people, but he lacks the kind of indomitable murderous spirit, which is also the reason why he has been repeatedly frustrated when fighting with the white-armored soldiers, that is, Chen Yue himself does not dare to say that he can win a white-armored soldier.

Therefore, when he saw the full Tartar iron cavalry coming on, and his own tiger squat artillery guns were not fully loaded, Chen Yue's mood was extremely nervous.

The Tartar cavalry galloped unabated, but such a close distance was not enough for the horses to cross the carriage, could they not rely on the horses to knock over the chariots?

The Mantar cavalry was getting closer and closer, and Chen Yue could already see the cold eyes of the white-armored soldier at the front.

The next moment, there was a loud bang, the war horse really hit the chariot, hundreds of catties of war horses plus the white armor soldiers on the horse were nearly a thousand catties, the momentum of the high-speed impact was too great, I saw the chariot shaking violently, and it was knocked back two feet, "click", the wheel connected between the two chariots was broken, and there was a gap of more than two feet wide between the two chariots.

The white-armored soldier on the horse leaped up at the moment when the horse and the chariot collided, jumped over the chariot like a bird, and pounced on the middle of the chariot.

"Raise your gun!" Chen Yue shouted, and the seven or eight pikemen in the middle hurriedly raised their spears, "poof" and "click" Several spears were crushed, but a few of them pierced the white-armored soldiers.

Chen Yue had no intention of watching the fate of the white-armored soldier because another war horse crashed into the chariot. With another loud bang, the chariot was knocked out several feet, and the gap between the two chariots was wide enough to allow the horses to gallop in.

"Ash bottle, 10,000 enemies!" Chen Yue hurriedly shouted, the soldiers under his command were inexperienced, and they were stunned by the decisive charge of the Tatar cavalry one by one.

Hearing Chen Yue's shout, they finally reacted.

"Fuck you!" On the current chariot, several soldiers threw out the ash bottles in their hands and smashed them on the bodies of the speeding soldiers, and the quicklime splattered out as the bottles shattered, enveloping the cavalryman in it.

"Fuck you!" As if waking up from a dream, other Ming troops followed suit, and a large number of ash bottles flew out, smashing their heads and faces towards the rushing cavalry. So the Mantar cavalry, who had just rushed into the car formation, had no time to wave the weapon in his hand, and was covered with a face full of ash bottles, and he couldn't even open his eyes, and the quicklime was fascinated by his eyes, and he screamed in pain.

"Kill" Xu Qingtian stabbed out with a shot, the head of the spear pierced into the ribs of the Mantar cavalry who hit the head, the Mantar howled and fell to the ground, the spear was stuck in the Mantar body, Xu Qingtian was driven to turn around half a circle, a strong force came, and he could no longer hold the spear in his hand.

The second Man Tartar was lucky not to be hit by the ash bottle in the upper body, and with an oblique split, the long knife slashed at Xu Qingtian's neck. Xu Qingtian, who was half of his body sideways, didn't see it at all, let alone hide. At this moment, a spear stabbed rapidly, and the head of the spear happened to be pierced on the wrist of the full tartar, and the full tartar howled, and the long knife grazed Xu Qingtian's leather armor and fell to the ground.

Wang Meng glanced at Xu Qingtian coldly, turned around and continued to deal with the next Mantar.

Here it must be said that the chariot formation of the Ming army, the beginning is three horizontal chariots, the tail is also three, and then the other chariots are divided into two columns and distributed on both sides, and in the middle is a long and narrow space, like a long glyph. The Ming archers and musketeers were on chariots, and the pikemen lined up in a narrow space, and when the Manchu cavalry rushed into formation, the pikemen were forced to stand close to each other and use their spears against the enemy.

Now the Tartar has smashed through the chariot in front of his head and rushed into the formation, if it is normal, he will definitely be able to knock the pikemen in the chariot formation, so that the chariot formation will also be broken.

But at the critical moment, the lime bottle reappeared mighty, and the first few cavalrymen were smashed by the lime bottle, and then were stabbed to death by the pikemen, a few hooks swept by, hooking the legs of the war horses in front, and a few war horses fell down and immediately blocked this narrow road, and it was impossible for the cavalry behind to run. Although it was too late to build a hook and sickle, there were many iron hooks in the town, which could be used just as well when tied to a long pole.

But the spear array was finally knocked out of the gap, and the Tartars behind jumped off their horses one after another, and rushed in along the gap with their weapons, but they first had to face the gray bottles like raindrops, and then the spears of the pikemen who took the opportunity to jump on both sides of the chariot, which was equivalent to being attacked from both sides by condescending.

The crossbow archer on the chariot finally loaded the crossbow arrows, and this kind of crossbow designed by Chen Yue was a bit troublesome to load the crossbow arrows, because there were no pulleys, and the crossbow machine needed to be put down vertically to the ground, and then the bowstring was pulled to the position with his hand, and then the crossbow arrows were loaded before he could shoot.

In the face of enemies at hand, there is no need to aim, just pull the trigger, and the crossbow bolt will fly out under the effect of elastic force, and then burrow into the body of the full tartar. Of course, one crossbow bolt may not be enough to kill a man in armor, but there are more than thirty crossbows on the chariot. The first dozen or so Tartars to rush into the formation were shot one after another, and then died under the attack of the pikemen.

The car formation that lacked a hole was like a pocket, and one after another full Tartar rushed into it, and then died under several attacks, not that they were not brave and not strong, but that the Ming army's unintentional tactics were too despicable and did not give them a chance to fight head-on at all.

Seeing that one accomplice after another rushed into the car formation, but did not set off any waves, the two dozen or so Mantars behind finally knew that the general situation was not good, and hurriedly turned around and retreated, when the two tiger squatting cannons of the Ming army spoke, and more than two hundred scattered bombs sprayed out, enveloping them......
