Volume VIII Troubled Times

Chapter 3 The two armies confronted each other in Ningyuan

Section 5 The Brave Win When Narrow Road Meets (2)

20,000 Mongolian iron horsemen swept in front of the two armies in a goose-shaped array, and rushed straight to the middle of the Hanwei army. After the Mongol army, the 30,000 taels of white flag troops followed closely at a distance of half a mile, ready to deal a fatal blow to the soldiers of the Hanwei army. Nurhachi immediately sent an army of 50,000 to kill the middle of Hanwei's army, and the great determination of his made Liu Yunwei feel a little surprised.

"The slave chieftain acts like this, and does not take it seriously at all, is there anything to rely on? Or do you think that the 200,000-strong army in your hands can run rampant in the world? ”

Liu Yunwei stared at the approaching Jiannu army and couldn't think of anything for the time being, so he ordered the artillery battalion to continue firing artillery, shoot the Jiannu army first, and consume the Jiannu army to the greatest extent.

After Edward received the order, a smile of extreme excitement appeared on his face, and he roared: "God Machine Cannon!" Continuous launches! Put! ”

"Tom! Shout! Shout! Shout! ”

"Tom! Shout! Shout! Shout! ”

In an instant, the front of the Han Wei army suddenly flashed with fire, roaring and exploding, one hundred and sixty divine machine gun carriages showed their might, and more than 1,000 arrows with arrows wrapped in gunpowder shot out, and under the fierce impetus of gunpowder, they shot quickly towards the 20,000 Mongolian troops who were killing.

Oba froze at the moment when the 160 magic cannons fired, only to see countless flames smashing into the army led by him, followed by countless bursting sounds, and the once mighty Mongol warriors were instantly engulfed by the ubiquitous flames, and the army suffered heavy casualties in an instant.

What made Oba even more desperate was that the incomparably powerful artillery of the Hanwei Army was still roaring, and the rate of fire was so fast that it made people desperate, and there was almost no pause in wave after wave!

"Boom! Rumble! Rumble! ”

"Boom! Rumble! Rumble! ”

Before the 20,000 Mongolian cavalry could rush to the front of the Hanwei army, they were killed and wounded by the Shenji artillery carriage. This is different from being bombarded by the big Buddha Lang machine, the casualties of the army may not be great, but the morale of the army is greatly damaged; Not only is it a great blow to the morale of the army, but the 160 cannon cannons are so dense and uninterrupted that the strength of the Mongolian army is a real drain!

In less than half a pillar of incense, at least more than 2,000 Mongolian iron cavalry were killed, and Oba had not even led his army to a distance of a hundred paces in front of the Hanwei army!

Seeing this, Huang Taiji and Azig, who were following behind the Mongolian army, hurriedly ordered the two white flag armies to stop advancing, and the two of them looked at the Mongolian iron cavalry shrouded in fire and wolf smoke in amazement, and their hearts were terrified, and the morale of the 30,000 taels of white flag army was also rapidly eroded in the raging fire.

Oba roared loudly in the formation, although at this time Oba wanted to lead the army to withdraw immediately, but before receiving the order to retreat from Nurhachi, Oba did not dare to retreat without permission under any circumstances. As a result, nearly 20,000 Mongols continued their near-frantic charge, and the huge casualties continued. After paying heavy casualties, Oba finally led his army to rush within a hundred paces of the Hanwei army.

Just when Oba was so excited that he almost cheered, the artillery battalion of the Hanwei army also stopped the fierce shelling, and Oba thought that the artillery of the Hanwei army was too hot to be used anymore, so he ordered the whole army to charge at full speed, preparing to enter the Hanwei army formation in one fell swoop, and use the heads of those Hanwei soldiers to kill the anger in his heart.

However, the ideal is beautiful, but the reality is painful, sometimes even fatal!

While Edward led the soldiers of the artillery battalion to retreat quickly, Zhou Qin, the garrison of the C battalion of the trapped camp, had already led more than 7,000 soldiers in four rows to cross the artillery battalion position, preparing to block the attack of the Mongolian iron cavalry.

"First row ready! Put! ”

"Bang! Bang! Bang! ”

"The second row is coming forward! Put! ”

"Bang! Bang! Bang! ”

"The third row is coming forward! Put! ”

The killing machine composed of more than 7,000 elite bird-gunners began to operate, and the Mongolian iron horsemen, who had thought that victory was in sight, fell into hell again, and under the blows of thousands of fine-grained bird-guns, they shed the last bit of blood and lost the last trace of courage.

Oba looked at the rising smoke in the distance, where did he still have the mind to attack? At this time, he didn't care about waiting for Nurhachi's order, and directly ordered the army to retreat. The remaining 10,000 Mongolian horsemen were relieved when they received the order to retreat, and they all rushed to turn their horses and retreat.

At this moment, Wu Xing saw the opportunity and immediately sent out the cavalry battalion under the jurisdiction of the trapped camp, preparing to cover up and kill the Mongolian iron cavalry. Liu Yunwei was also very excited after the Chinese army saw it from afar, thinking that this was a great opportunity to turn defense into offense, so he ordered Guo Yi, the garrison of the pacesetter battalion, to lead the Longxiang iron cavalry to counterattack together, and at the same time gave an order to Gao Hongguang, the general of the Yingyang battalion stationed on the left flank of the army, to order all the iron cavalry of the Yingyang battalion to attack together; Coupled with the iron cavalry army trapped in the camp, Liu Yunwei gathered three battalions of iron cavalry with a total of more than 20,000 soldiers to take the middle road of Jiannu!

Gong Jun, who was trapped in the camp, led more than 7,000 iron cavalry soldiers under his command to rush to the front, and the army bit the Mongols' tail all the way to cover up, and it didn't take long to turn the retreat in Oba's mouth into a rout! More than 7,000 Hanwei army iron cavalry chased more than 10,000 Mongols all the way, so that Nurha, who was watching the battle in the Jiannu array, was furious, and issued three orders in a row, urging Huang Taiji and Azig to lead the army to the top, to repel the counterattack of the Hanwei army at any cost and stabilize the position of the army.

In the face of the rapidly turning tide of battle, without Nurhachi's strict orders, Huang Taiji and Azig had already reorganized their armies and rushed towards the oncoming trapped camp iron cavalry. The Mongol cavalry that fled along the way saw that the two white-flag armies were killed, and fled to both sides, preparing to return to the rear to regroup and continue to participate in the battle. These Mongol routs were afraid that they would accidentally block the way of the Jiannu army, and they would be killed on the spot by those wolf-like Jiannu troops.

At this time, Guo Yi had already led 10,000 dragon cavalry to converge with the trapped camp iron cavalry led by Gong Jun, the two joined forces, and more than 17,000 iron cavalry soldiers collided with the 30,000 taels of white flag army on the opposite side, and at the moment when the two sides fought together, a burst of fire suddenly flashed in the formation of the Hanwei army's iron cavalry, and the thousands of soldiers who rushed to the front lit the three-eyed gun in their hands, giving the two white flag armies a blow!

Such a close-range bombardment immediately disrupted the formation of the two white flag armies, Guo Yi and Gong Jun saw the opportunity and immediately led the army to cut into the Jiannu formation, and the two sides began to fight hard, and suddenly blood was splashed in all directions, the dead were in disarray, and the battle on the middle battlefield entered a white heat.

The iron cavalry of the Hanwei army used the three-eyed gun to disrupt the Jiannu formation and occupy the opportunity, but the strength of the Jiannu army was superior, which was nearly twice the strength of the iron cavalry of the Hanwei army. However, with the development of the battle, Huang Taiji and Azig each led their troops and horses to form an encirclement of the Hanwei army's iron cavalry, and the battle situation gradually developed towards a situation that was unfavorable to the Hanwei army's officers and soldiers.

Suddenly, the roar of the iron cavalry came from the west of the middle battlefield, and Liu Sanming, the garrison of the Yingyang battalion, led more than 7,000 iron cavalry soldiers to kill, and directly collided with the white flag iron cavalry led by Huang Taiji. Under the surprise of the White Flag army, there was a gap in the formation immediately, and Liu Sanming took advantage of the situation to lead his troops to join Guo Yi and Gong Junbu. At this point, the military superiority of the two white flag Jiannu no longer existed, and the two sides began a life-and-death battle that was evenly matched. At this time, both sides are fighting hard, both are enduring huge casualties, it depends on who will drain the blood first!

In the distance, Liu Yunwei frowned and looked at the bloody battle on the battlefield in the middle road, not knowing what he was thinking in his heart, Zhou Tianyi and Hu Kun around him were suggesting that the army temporarily retreat, and wait until the army on the sea and west routes made a move, and then the main army on the east route launched a general attack on Jiannu.

Liu Yunwei looked at the battlefield in the middle and then at the battlefield on the right flank, and immediately vetoed the suggestions of Zhou Tianyi and Hu Kun, raised the horsewhip in his hand and pumped it fiercely into the air, and said loudly: "Today's battle is the prelude to the battle of Liaodong, and the soldiers of my Hanwei army have advanced but not retreated, and there is no life or death!" Today's bloody battle, never to the death! ”

After speaking, Liu Yunwei ordered the pacesetter battalion garrison Zheng Zhibao to immediately lead the 8,000 Iron Man Army to the left flank of the army, converge with the Yingyang battalion army to attack the right flank of Jiannu, open up the left battlefield, and start a comprehensive decisive battle with Jiannu!

Zhou Tianyi and Hu Kun looked at each other, and then the two of them were so excited that their faces were red, as a seven-foot man, how could they not be excited to encounter such a life-and-death battle?

And Zheng Zhibao was even more excited and trembling, the battles he had with his brother Zheng Zhilong in Japan and the ocean before, compared with the life-and-death battle in front of him, were just street gangsters' fights, and they couldn't be put on the stage at all! The life-and-death battle of hundreds of thousands of people in front of him is where the men of the Han family go!

It didn't take long for Zheng Zhibao to lead the 8,000 Iron Man Army to the left flank of the army, and joined the soldiers of the Yingyang Battalion, who had already retired and were ready to go.

After receiving Liu Yunwei's order, Gao Hongguang only left the baggage battalion to garrison Yan Shouli and lead his troops to stay behind to defend the left flank of the army, and the remaining soldiers of the A, B, and C battalions all attacked with him.

"Boom! Boom! Boom! ”

In the sound of war drums, Gao Hongguang led more than 20,000 soldiers of the Yingyang Battalion to kill the right flank of Jiannu with 8,000 soldiers of Zheng Zhibao's department, and nearly 30,000 soldiers lined up into four huge phalanxes according to the battalion. The soldiers sang war songs fearlessly, and took the initiative to attack about 20,000 yellow flag iron cavalry with 30,000 foot soldiers, still full of fighting spirit and war songs!

"Jiliao Mansion, Han Jialang, Battle Tartars, Defend Han and Tang! The spear was broken, a hundred battles were killed, the strong man fell, and he was buried in the north. Tartar blood, horses swinging, Hu no one, Han Daochang! ”
