Text Volume 12, Chapter 1, Section 4 Bloody Battle of Gubeikou (3)
More than 2,400 soldiers of the Ming army were greatly boosted when they heard this, and they roared angrily and charged on their horses, following behind the general Cao Bianjiao to kill the main Mongolian iron cavalry commander who was a hundred paces away.
"All of us are united, and the mountains can be shaken!"
"Only loyal to righteousness, angry bullfighting!"
I don't know who sang the triumphant song made by Qi Jiguang loudly, Cao Bianjiao and the 2,400 iron cavalry soldiers behind him also sang in unison, and for a while, the war song of the Ming Dynasty sounded on the battlefield, and the Ming army's iron cavalry was like a rainbow!
"Rush!"
Cao Bianjiao roared angrily, and dozens of guards behind him rushed over, followed by 2,400 Ming iron cavalry soldiers, and the iron cavalry army galloped across the 7,000 Mongolian iron cavalry, and no one could stop it, turning the Mongolian iron cavalry army upside down, dead and wounded.
In the distance, the main commander of the Mongol iron cavalry was originally a commander named Bagen under Tushetu Khan Oba of the Korqin Tribe, who was a famous warrior on the Mongolian steppe. In order to monitor the leader of the Han tribe, Hutulan, the main general of the army on the left, Oba specially sent Bagen to the army on the left to suppress the formation.
At this time, Bagen saw that more than 2,000 Ming iron cavalry were rushing straight towards him, and he was overjoyed, and immediately led a thousand Mongolian iron cavalry around him to meet him, and together with thousands of Mongolian iron cavalry in front of him, he besieged and killed the Ming army iron cavalry soldiers.
Cao Bianjiao saw that the main general of the Mongolian army rushed over by himself, and he was secretly happy in his heart, and immediately shouted loudly: "Three-eyed gun!" Three-eyed guns! ”
The surrounding Ming army iron cavalry soldiers heard Cao Bianjiao's roar, and they all understood it, except for the outermost iron cavalry soldiers of the army who continued to fight with the Mongolian iron cavalry soldiers, the thousands of iron cavalry soldiers in the army secretly took out their own well-built three-eyed guns.
These well-built and powerful three-eyed guns were all transferred from the Hanwei Army Pacesetter Battalion by order of Liu Yunwei, the Duke of Zhenguo, before Cao Wenzhao's department set off. Like the twenty divine machine artillery vehicles, they were all specially allocated by Liu Yunwei, the prince of Zhenguo, in order to enhance the combat power of the army of Sun Chuanting and Cao Wenzhao.
At that time, Cao Bianjiao was full of desire to obtain some powerful artillery from Zhenguo Gong like the Qin army under Sun Chuanting, instead of a mere thousand-rod three-eyed gun. If it weren't for the uncle Cao Wenzhao who didn't hesitate at all, he immediately accepted these three-eyed guns, maybe Cao Bianjiao would really have spoken out.
But Cao Bianjiao never expected that as soon as the army arrived on the battlefield, these thousands of well-made three-eyed guns would come in handy. And it's a game-changer for a game-changer!
The spear in Cao Bianjiao's hand flew up and down, killing several Mongolian Tatar soldiers in a row, and then he looked up sharply to see that the main general of the Mongolian army, Bagen, had rushed to the distance of less than thirty paces in front, which was exactly within the range of the three-eyed gun!
Cao Bianjiao secretly screamed in his heart, and then roared with all his strength: "Three-eyed gun!" Above! ”
I saw that the Ming army's cavalry formation suddenly changed formation, and thousands of Ming army iron cavalry soldiers rushed out of the riding formation in one fell swoop, and the rest of the more than 1,000 Ming army iron cavalry soldiers were separated from the left and right, blocking the surrounding Mongolian iron cavalry.
At the same time as charging at high speed, the thousands of Ming army iron cavalry soldiers had already leveled their three-eyed guns and pointed straight ahead.
Bagen, who was leading the army to charge, looked at the Ming army's iron cavalry that had rushed to his eyes, as well as the thousands of black and shiny three-eyed guns, Rao is weather was cold and windy, Bagen also felt hot all over his body, and beads of sweat the size of beans instantly flowed down a big cake face.
"Raise your shield! Raise your shield! Speed up and rush up, kill! ”
With a loud roar, Bagan grabbed the round shield hanging from the saddle, then kicked the horse's belly and sped up, trying to get mixed up with the Ming cavalry before it could open fire.
But it's too late!
Just when Bagen led the army to gallop wildly, Cao Bianjiao shouted: "Release!" ”
"Bang! Bang! Bang! ”
"Bang! Bang! Bang! ”
"Bang! Bang! Bang! ”
Thousands of three-eyed guns fired one after another, and the dense vitality instantly beat Bagen and the nearly 2,000 Mongolian iron horsemen behind him into a sieve, and fell to the ground together with the war horses under the crotch of the Mongolian Tatar soldiers!
And the huge roar of thousands of three-eyed guns fired in unison made the surrounding Mongolian iron horsemen even more heartbroken, plus the main general Bagen had turned into a puddle of rotten meat on the ground, and the remaining more than 4,000 Mongolian iron horsemen were instantly torn apart and fled in all directions.
Seeing this, Cao Bianjiao immediately cheered, and wanted to cover up for a while. But when Cao Bianjiao looked at the middle battlefield where the bloody battle was going on, he immediately changed his mind.
"Regroup! Regroup! ”
Cao Bianjiao slowed down the speed of the war horse, and then raised the spear in his hand, and the remaining more than 2,000 Ming army iron cavalry soldiers surrounded one after another, with Cao Bianjiao as the vanguard of the army to re-form the formation. It didn't take long for a cone-shaped cavalry formation to be completed.
Cao Bianjiao pointed his spear and shouted loudly at the middle battlefield in front of the Iron Cavalry Army: "Attack the enemy formation!" Kill all the soldiers with me! ”
"Wan Sheng! Wansheng! Wansheng! ”
More than 2,000 Ming army iron cavalry soldiers roared angrily and launched a charge, under the leadership of the general Cao Bianjiao, galloping wildly, indomitable, in a very short period of time the speed of the iron cavalry army increased to the highest, towards the middle of the battlefield of more than 60,000 Mongolian iron cavalry army killed.
Mid Lane Battlefield.
Sun Chuanting led 30,000 soldiers of the Qin army to fight bloodily for more than an hour, and after paying the lives of thousands of soldiers, the soldiers of the army relied on the carts and horses in front of the battle, and firmly blocked more than 60,000 Mongolian iron horsemen in front of the battle, unable to advance half a step.
At this time, half-human-tall corpses had been piled up in front of the Qin army, both Mongolian soldiers and Qin soldiers, but most of them were still Mongolian soldiers. In the fierce battle of this hour, although the Qin army soldiers sacrificed thousands of people, the casualties of the Mongol army were even heavier, and more than 10,000 Mongol soldiers had fallen in front of the Qin army!
In the face of the impregnable military formation of the Qin army, the morale of the Mongol iron cavalry army began to fall rapidly, not only did the army begin to show a weak attack, but some of the Mongol soldiers who had broken their courage began to break back.
Seeing this, the chief general who was commanding the battle in the Mongol iron cavalry army, Hu Tulan, the leader of the Han tribe, was so angry that he scolded and immediately sent someone to kill the deserters on the spot, and threw the heads of the deserters in front of the battle to show the public.
"Tell the warriors that this battle is a matter of life and death for my Great Mongolia, and the descendants of Genghis Khan must not take half a step back! If this battle is won, then our Mongolian iron cavalry can take advantage of the situation to wave south and enter the pass; If this battle is lost, then our Great Mongolia will be destroyed, just like the Qing Dynasty, and will be slaughtered by the Han people! ”
Hutulan, the leader of the Han tribe, rode on his war horse and roared loudly, constantly boosting the morale of the Mongolian iron cavalry army: "Descendants of Genghis Khan! Rush up, kill these Ming troops, and fight with me into Gubeikou, all the way into Beijing City! ”
Suddenly, just as Huturan was preparing to overseer the onslaught, there was a shocking noise on the right flank battlefield, and then Hutulan was horrified to find that the 10,000 iron cavalry army on the right flank battlefield had been defeated, and three or four thousand rout soldiers were fleeing for their lives on the barren grassland, like lost dogs.
"It can't be! On the battlefield on the right flank, there are obviously only 3,000 Ming army iron cavalry, and it is impossible to defeat my 10,000 Mongolian warriors! ”
Huturan stared at the battlefield on the right flank with an incredulous expression, and suddenly saw a Ming army of only more than 2,000 iron cavalry forming a formation to kill, rushing towards the more than 60,000 Mongolian iron cavalry army led by him.
"Crazy! Are these Ming soldiers crazy? ”
Hu Tulan glanced at the middle battlefield that was still fighting in front of him, and then looked at the iron cavalry soldiers of Cao Bianjiao's department who were charging at high speed, and made up his mind in his heart, ready to divide another 10,000 iron cavalry from the army to meet him and kill the more than 2,000 iron cavalry of the Ming army in one fell swoop!
At the same time, Sun Chuanting, who was commanding the battle in the Qin army's formation, also discovered the drastic changes in the battlefield on the right flank, and was also surprised to see Cao Bianjiao leading more than 2,000 iron cavalry soldiers under his command to rush towards the main army of Mongolian iron cavalry.
But then, Sun Chuanting laughed out loud and praised his subordinates around him: "People say that General Xiao Cao is brave and unstoppable, and General Cao is resourceful and well-governed!" Today's view of the truth and even the famous words! ”
After speaking, Sun Chuanting gave an order to the 20,000 soldiers of Cao Wenzhao's department, ordering Cao Wenzhao to immediately lead the army into the battle, and directly launch a counterattack from the front of the middle battlefield, to cripple the Mongolian army that was already in decline at all costs!
At the same time, Sun Chuanting also ordered to gather 3,000 elites in the Qin army, preparing to use these 3,000 elite soldiers to launch a counteroffensive with Cao Wenzhao's army.
The final decisive battle between the Ming army and the Mongol army is about to begin!
Gubeikou Guancheng.
At this time, the garrison Gao Mingxuan had been injured and retreated to the rear, and there were only about 1,000 Ming soldiers left guarding the pass, so he was forced to abandon the left wing wall and concentrate his forces to defend the city tower and the right wing wall.
The 20,000 Mongolian cavalry attacking Gubeikou had lost more than 3,000 people, but they successfully killed the wall, completely occupied the left flank of Gubeikou, and were concentrating their forces to attack the tower.
The garrison Gao Mingxuan watched one after another of his subordinates die tragically in the hands of the Tartars, and watched one after another Tartar soldiers show off their might on the Xiongguan of the Ming Dynasty, and he was so angry that he almost crushed the steel teeth.
Gao Mingxuan wanted to lead the remaining Ming soldiers to rush up and fight with the invading Mongolian Tatars, but in the face of the huge gap in strength, he was more than willing to support it, so he could only support it hard, hoping to support it for a while longer, and hold on until the reinforcements defeated the main Mongolian army outside the pass and rushed over.
"However, will the reinforcements really be able to defeat the tens of thousands of Mongolian iron cavalry outside the pass in time?"
Gao Mingxuan, the garrison, sat up straight in pain, and looked at the battlefield outside the gate through the window of the city tower. I saw that the entire battlefield was still in a state of stalemate, and it was impossible to distinguish the winner in a short period of time, unless there was a miracle!
"Maybe I and my soldiers won't survive today! Death is death! There is a Zhenguo Gong, the Tartars can't turn the sky, and the Zhenguo Guild will avenge us! It's just that I can't see the day when Da Ming rises and Weijia Hainei! ”
