Volume 1 Liaodong Shock

Chapter III: Plans for Internal and Foreign Difficulties

Section 4 Tiger Majesty (Middle)

Liu Yunwei summoned Lu Ying, Wu Xing, Wen Poyu, Zhao Kaishan, and Li Tianhao to arrange a strategy to meet the enemy, and then ordered the whole battalion to go out of the north gate and line up in Fort Yi, preparing for a decisive battle with the Jiannu army.

Li Tianhao thought for a while and persuaded: "Big brother, the strength of Jiannu is superior, and it is a sudden attack, should we stick to the fortress and consume the strength of Jiannu?" ”

Liu Yunwei shook his head and said, "If we are prepared in advance, defending the fort and the enemy is of course the first choice." But now that Jiannu has lured us here and launched a surprise attack in the early morning, we have no preparation to defend the city. Do we have rolling wood? Is there enough food, grass, and equipment in the fort? Instead of being trapped in a lonely city, it is better to go out of the city and fight in the field to defeat it. ”

Lu Ying said: "What the eldest brother said is reasonable, maybe we can't defend the city is exactly what Jiannu wants." After all, we don't know how many troops there are around Jiannu, but we don't have reinforcements, and if we defend the lonely city without reinforcements, we will die! ”

Li Tianhao and the others were all terrified, this Jiannu is so calculating, fortunately, the Hanwei battalion has extraordinary combat power and can fight with Jiannu in the field, otherwise they can only defend the city and wait for help, then they will become the turtle in the urn of Jiannu.

Liu Yunwei said: "Lu Ying, you take the general soldiers to guard the fort, and shoot arrows on the fort wall to cover the battle. ”

"Order!"

"The rest of the soldiers will follow me out of the city and line up to meet the battle!"

"Order!"

The sky was faintly brightened, and a red sun slowly rose on the horizon, illuminating the vast land.

To the north of Majidan Fort, the army of 5,000 Jiannu walked neatly from the darkness in the morning sun, like a huge monster ready to devour everything in the world emerged from the darkness and slowly approached Magendan Fort.

In the south, 3,000 soldiers of the Ming Army lined up in the north and waited for the battle.

Mr. B relied on the fortress in the middle of the array, and Wu Xing personally led the extermination array composed of 100 people to the front line; Zhao Kaishan led Mr. C on the left, and Li Tianhao led Mr. Ding to protect the two wings of Mr. Wu Xingyi in the right train formation; Liu Yunwei personally led 500 personal guards to the left side of the infantry phalanx, Wen Poyu's general cavalry walked on the right side of the infantry phalanx, and the two cavalry soldiers waited for an opportunity to prepare for a counterattack.

The Great War is on the verge of breaking out.

The two sides were a mile apart, and the Jiannu army stopped its position and began to form a group.

Yue Tuo looked at the Ming army from afar, his heart was full of chagrin and surprise, he sacrificed a Niu Lu's strength at the expense of the Ming army, deceived the Ming army to Magendanbao, originally wanted to take advantage of the night to surround it, and then gather reinforcements one after another, trap it here with superior forces, so as to avoid excessive casualties in a field battle with it. But people are not as good as heaven: when they strangled the scouts of the Ming army, two people were taken away, and the whereabouts of the army were exposed.

So Yue Tuo hurriedly ordered the army to speed up, and when he arrived at Magendanbao, he saw that the Ming army was already in formation.

A siege battle turned into a field battle in which the enemy waited for work, and Yue Tuo was extremely angry.

"There's no way, since the matter has come to this, let's defeat the Ming army in the field. I don't believe it, the Ming army can defeat my Dajin Iron Cavalry in the field! ”

"Ah Chang, bring 3,000 people to break through the Ming army formation for me!"

A red flag in response to the truth: "The slave takes the order!" ”

Soon, the three thousand taels of Red Flag Jiannu were completed. As soon as Achanga gave the order, he oversaw the attack of the army.

I saw hundreds of Jiannu coats and auxiliaries pushing more than a dozen heavy shield carts, and hundreds of archers followed; The rest of the soldiers and horses, with two hundred heavy armor and other dead soldiers in the vanguard, followed last. The three thousand Jiannu slowly pressed towards the infantry formation of the Hanwei battalion.

Lu Ying watched from the castle wall, and after Jiannu entered the firing range, he shouted loudly: "Ignite!" Put! ”

I saw a point of light jumping up on the north wall, and rockets like a torrential rain shot at the Jiannu army array, crackling and nailed to the shield car.

Jiannu's shield car is covered with a layer or even several layers of cooked cowhide on a thick wooden plank, which is not fireproof against arrows. After several rounds of volleys by the soldiers of the Ming army, four shield carts had already been ignited, and the Jiannu who were hiding behind fled one after another, exposed to the range of the Ming army.

Holding up the big shield, Achang Ah shouted, "Speed up!" Archers ready! ”

The Jiannu army suddenly picked up speed, and the Jiannu archers immediately launched a counterattack.

"Raise your shield!" Liu Yunwei shouted when he saw that Jiannu started shooting.

However, even with the protection of the shield, Jiannu's arrows were fierce and vicious, and they targeted the gaps between the shields, and the Hanwei battalion inevitably began to suffer casualties.

Slowly, as the two sides exchanged fires, the three thousand Jiannu approached the phalanx of the Hanwei battalion. The heavily armored soldiers in the rear of Jiannu began to rush past the archers and raise their shields.

"Up!" A melodious roar sounded, and the extermination array was ready to start fighting, and the bright heavy spears and the cold and penetrating long knives were waiting for the Tartars to come and die.

"Engage! Engage! Kill Hu! ”

"Brothers, don't die today! Kill! ”

Zhao Kaishan and Li Tianhao shouted excitedly, and the soldiers of the Ming army on both wings were ready to engage in battle.

And Lu Ying's General A still fired arrows towards the middle and rear of the Jiannu army, hoping to relieve the pressure on the front of the phalanx.

Liu Yunwei saw that the infantry phalanx was ready to engage in battle, so he told Wen Poyu through the flag to attack immediately. I saw two elite Ming army iron horsemen rushing from both sides of the phalanx to the two thousand men and horses left behind in the rear of Jiannu. The momentum of the Ming army's thousand-man iron cavalry charge is not weaker than that of 10,000 iron cavalry!

At the same time, with a "coax", Jiannu rushed to the front of the heavily armored dead soldiers and crashed into the extermination array. In an instant, dozens of Jiannu were strung on top of the seven-meter-long heavy spear, and the Jiannu behind saw this and used their weapons to open the spear, trying to rush into the formation, but they met Wu Xing and other Ming soldiers holding long knives to chop horses. There was a burst of sword light, and the Jiannu who rushed in front turned into a piece of minced meat in an instant.

The soldiers armed with heavy spears drew their guns and stabbed again, and kept repeating, other ordinary pikemen also rushed up to fight with Jiannu, and Wu Xing and other warriors armed with horse-chopping knives continued to kill Jiannu who broke in. The battle was extremely fierce, and the soldiers of the Ming army were constantly killed, and the comrades behind did not hesitate to fill in immediately, and the entire Ming army front was like a majestic Great Wall to block the frontal offensive of the Jiannu army.

"Kill it! Warriors, kill Nikan! Ah Chang'a shouted from behind, but the forward Jiannu was like hitting a steel plate, and he couldn't move forward half a step further.

And the battle on both flanks was the same, from the very beginning of the engagement, it entered a white heat.

Zhao Kaishan took turns to open the mountain axe and shouted to kill Jiannu, the whole person was already stained red with blood, and he didn't look like a human. General C's soldiers relied on the car formation to start a fierce battle with Jiannu, and the corpses of both sides were almost piled up on the battle line. Many of the Jiannu even stepped on the corpses and boarded the chariot and burst into the chariot formation.

Lu Ying was shocked when he saw this, and hurriedly mobilized a crossbowman to shoot at Jiannu on the left flank, and Jiannu was immediately shot down. Zhao Kaishan took the opportunity to lead the soldiers to kill the Jiannu who broke in.

The battle on the right flank was also very fierce, and a small group of Jiannu even destroyed several chariots and rushed into the formation.

Li Tianhao's machete had long since lost its place, and at this time, he was holding a waist knife and was attacking a Paishku. Li Tianhao didn't defend at all, and went straight to the key point of Napashiku, and the Paishku was terrified, wanting to retreat and let the soldiers behind him solve the madman in front of him.

Li Tianhao was willing to let him go, and then took a step to split Pashku's knife and slammed his shoulder into Pashku's chest. Pashku was knocked almost out of breath, and the whole person fell to the ground head-on. Li Tianhao took the opportunity to step on his chest and raised his knife to chop off the head of the general Shiku.

The surrounding Ming troops saw that the main general was full of morale, and the Jiannu was demoralized, and gradually couldn't resist and retreated. At this time, Lu Ying saw that the offensive of Jiannu on the left flank had retreated slightly, and he concentrated his forces to shoot Jiannu on the right flank. Li Tianhao led General Ding's soldiers to launch a counterattack, and Jiannu suffered heavy casualties and was driven out of the right-wing car formation.

Seeing that the attacks on the left and right flanks were repelled by the Ming army, and the front was also not advancing an inch, the warriors attacked on three sides not only did not attack the Ming army's car formation, but suffered heavy casualties, and couldn't help but be furious and shouted: "Warriors! Kill me! Those who hesitate will not be killed! ”

After speaking, Ah Chang'a rushed to Wu Xing's general manager with the new force in the rear formation. The Jiannu under Achang Aling held a large shield with eyebrows, and the Jiannu in the back row held a tiger gun and confronted the Ming army.

Wu Xingyi was not afraid, and the overseers and Jiannu began to poke at each other, and in an instant, the casualties on both sides increased dramatically. Lu Ying was anxious when he saw it at the head of the city, and once again gathered crossbowmen to shoot and kill the frontal Jiannu, but the Jiannu shield was well defended, so that the results were not many.

The two sides fell into a stalemate and bloody battle.

After Liu Yunwei and Wen Poyu launched a charge, they rushed towards the Jiannu Chinese army on the left and right wings. The 500 guards under Liu Yunwei's command were all elite soldiers selected from the whole battalion, and were equipped with the finest cotton armor in the battalion, covered with fine steel armor, and their combat power was very considerable. In addition to the iconic horse lance cavalry, the rest of the soldiers under Wen Poyu's command are also elite cavalry soldiers.

Although the number of the two troops was less than half of that of the Jiannu Chinese army, they did not fall behind in momentum, and the charge of only a thousand horses was full of oppression.

Yue Tuowang saw that the infantry phalanx of the Ming army not only successfully blocked the attack of the warriors and killed each other, but also divided two elite cavalry of more than 1,000 people to attack him, and he was shocked in his heart.

"I can't imagine that the Ming army is so fierce and underestimates the enemy! Knowing this, he should have asked Ama for heavy troops and gathered a few banners to surround and kill him. ”

Before he had time to think about it, seeing that the Ming army had already rushed closer and closer, Yue Tuo said to a Jiala Ezhen beside him: "Bakshi, you take eight hundred warriors to meet the Ming army on the left flank. ”

"Huh!" A stout Jiannu answered.

In a moment, Bakshi gathered 800 Jiannu cavalry and rushed towards Wen Poyu's troops in formation.

Subsequently, Yue Tuo formed a charge formation with the remaining 1,200 cavalry, pointed the tiger gun in his hand at Liu Yunwei's general banner and shouted: "The main general of the Ming army is there, kill the main general of the Ming army, reward 100 taels of silver, and upgrade two levels!" ”

1,200 Jiannu howled like wild beasts, and seeing that the morale of his subordinates was high, Yue Tuo rushed out first, and most of the Jiannu slowly started and launched a charge against Liu Yunwei's troops.
