Chapter 734 Decisive Battle on the Western Front
Wang Yan gave an order, in addition to the Iron Man Army to guard the Chinese army, one battalion on the left and right to guard the two wings, and a battalion of the rear army to guard the baggage, 70,000 horses, pressing up 55,000 people, which was close to Boluo's 60,000 army.
Among the 60,000 people in Boluo, only the two Han flags of Zhenglan and Red can fight, and the other green battalion soldiers are the best level of the local town army of the Ming army, Wang Yan's 70,000 carefully selected elites, who have been raised in Wuchang for three months, he is confident that he can defeat Bolo.
Bolo heard the exclamation of the generals around him, and when he saw the main force of the Ming army pressing up, the muscles on his face twitched.
At this time, he even called out the white flag that was originally guarding the rear formation, and he could only give way to the charge and make a decisive blow when he was fighting.
"Steady the infantry army." Seeing that the situation was urgent, Bolo's muscles burst out.
At this time, the Kesheng battalion had already caught up with the defeated army and crashed into the enemy formation, and the front of the Qing army was in chaos.
"Lord Wang, it's too passive! You can't win if you go on like this! Shi Tingzhu shouted.
His words woke up Bolo, and from the beginning he was beaten and in a passive position. It is only a matter of time before he is defeated and defeated, and there is no hope of victory.
"What then?" After all, Bolo is young and not experienced enough on the battlefield.
"The cavalry withdrew, regrouped, and rushed straight to Wang Yan!" Shi Tingzhu said urgently.
"No! As soon as the cavalry retreated, the Ming infantry could hit the big formation without any scruples, and when the cavalry did not break Wang Yan, what should we do if the infantry collapsed first? Tong Tulai stepped forward and objected loudly, "Moreover, it is the ironclad army that guards Wang Yan, I have fought with them, and the light cavalry can't rush them at all!" ”
Bolo was already tired of Tong Tulai, he kept chirping here, this doesn't work, that doesn't work, Bolo got angry, and immediately shouted angrily: "Then what do you say?" ”
Tong Tulai didn't bother with Bolo, "The infantry formation is stable, the cavalry continues to break through the infantry of the Ming army, as long as it is stable for an hour, the Ming army's offensive is frustrated, and we still have a chance." ”
The group was silent, and Bolo looked at him, a heavy breath in his nose.
The Ming army rushed forward to the various armies, not a swarm of impact, but to maintain the formation, and not all raided the front, Hu Jie, Hu Yi, Hu Wei, and Hu Ben were pushed diagonally to both sides, forcing the Qing cavalry away, guarding the soldiers of Zhongyong Town and Kesheng Battalion, and raiding the front of the Qing army.
This is equivalent to nearly 10,000 Qing cavalry, blocked by 20,000 foot soldiers.
The infantry collided, the spears stabbed, the soldiers in front were almost crowded, face to face, the two sides formed a dense formation to cut each other, one shot down, blood bloomed, one knife went down, and the minced meat splashed.
In the battalions of the Ming army, the sword and shield hands were on the periphery, the war knives were cut and fished, and the spears were held between the gaps, constantly thrusting and piercing, and the sword and shield hands were frantically crashing into the Qing formation.
While the close soldiers in the front row were fighting, the archers and gunners in the back rows of the two armies kept controlling their weapons and carrying out long-range strikes.
The formation of the Qing army was suddenly deformed everywhere, the battlefield was filled with gunsmoke, locusts were like rain, and the battle situation was fierce and abnormal.
The Qing army was dominated by more than 40,000 people, and was killed by more than 20,000 Ming troops.
Where the two armies were engaged, rivers of blood flowed and corpses were strewn all over the field.
Outside the main battlefield, the duel between the rampaging horse army and the white flag cavalry has also reached a climax, and in the blink of an eye, the two armies have been hedged for three rounds.
The cavalry of the two armies were dyed with blood, and there were only more than 3,000 horsemen left in the rampage horse army, Qin Shangxing and Zhao Shenkuan rushed every time, and when they looked back, the brothers behind them were constantly decreasing, but the loss of Zhengbai Banner was greater than that of the rampage horse army, and the five thousand horsemen were also rushed and there were less than 3,000 horsemen left???
After another impact at this time, Qin Shangxing had already suffered many injuries on his body, several feather arrows were still inserted in his body, and a large hole was also pierced out of a piece of armor around his waist, and his robe was already blood-red.
"Rampage!" Qin Shangxing did not have the heart to retreat, the cavalry hedged, playing is the heartbeat, comparing is the excitement, as long as the white flag is defeated, and then rush to the fighting Ming and Qing infantry formations, you can help the infantry break the Qing soldiers.
The cavalry listened to his call and regrouped again, ready to launch a new assault.
At this time, many officers of the Ming army had died in battle, and the cavalry under the command of many officers was already short, but this did not affect the cavalry formation.
The cavalrymen spotted a small flag with a helmet on its head, and lined up behind him, looking for another flag if it was full.
During the whole process, the cavalry looked for the officer, and the officer would find the cavalry behind him when he found that there was a shortage under his command, and when the array was completed with small flags as a unit, it would be organized into a larger combat unit and gathered into a large arrow array.
In a moment, the rampaging horse army gathered together again, Qin Shangxing rode his spear high, turned around and shouted: "Sons, do you dare to rush again?" ”
"Rush!" The bloody cavalrymen were not afraid and responded with their weapons raised.
"Rampage!" Seeing this, Qin Shangxing clamped the horse's belly and took the lead in rushing out.
Almost at the same time, Zhao Shenkuan on the other side staggered with the enemy horse, and after the war horse galloped for a while, the speed suddenly slowed down, and finally he couldn't stand on his knees.
The horses were stabbed by the Qing cavalry, and they could not survive, so he hurriedly changed horses, let the cavalry regroup a little, and also immediately rushed again.
He had already smelled the breath of victory, the combat power of the white flag was really not good, he was charged three times in a row, the establishment was already chaotic, the cavalry were panting, and they were on the verge of collapse.
The battle lasted nearly an hour, and Wang Yan's eyes narrowed in the middle of the Ming army, and Wang Shixiu on the side was already sweating on his hands and feet.
After this battle, the Ma army is afraid that it will be lost in half, and his heart is simply dripping blood.
Bolo and many Qing generals were a little restless, the Ming army infantry was about to advance under his Chinese army, but the sharp spirit had not yet dried up, the Qing army was struggling to support, but the waiting turnaround did not come.
Just when Bolo was anxious about the war, the positive white flag on the right flank, after another hedge, finally collapsed completely, and then the positive white flag on the left flank was also withdrawn and scattered.
This group of green battalion soldiers who were promoted experienced such a painful battle before they had time to enjoy their privileges after becoming the Eight Banners.
The change in both wings made Bolo's eyes bulge.
The rampaging horse army, which had dispersed the white flag, began to rush towards the two wings of the Qing army's infantry formation.
Seeing the rolling horses' hooves, the soldiers of the main formation of the Qing army had already sensed the danger, and exclaimed in all directions, panic and anxiety spread in the Qing army's formation, and the front line began to rout.
"No, I hit it." Jin Li almost burst into tears.
"Hold on! Resist this king! Bolo jumped like thunder, as soon as he pulled the reins, he was ready to go into battle in person, but Tong Tulai grabbed his reins and said urgently: "Lord Wang, withdraw now, it's still urgent." ”
Bolo was about to scold him angrily and withdraw your mother, but after the battle, there was a sudden exclamation, he looked back, and swallowed back the words that came to his mouth.
In the middle of the Ming army, Chen Bangyan looked at the battlefield and found that the movement of the Qing soldiers spread from the two wings to the front formation, and even the rear formation was agitated. ”
Wang Yan also noticed, he squinted and saw a cloud of smoke and dust rising from the rear of the Qing army, and smiled at the corner of his mouth, "They are here to add icing on the cake." ”
After finishing speaking, his face turned straight, "Order, the whole army rushes forward, don't go Bolo." ”
