Section 7 The Great Confrontation (2)
Li Dingguo personally led the 10,000 heavy pikemen who withdrew to the Chinese army to break behind the army, and then ordered more than 40,000 soldiers to immediately retreat and withdraw to the defense line under the response of 15,000 soldiers under Liu Wenxiu's command.
In the blink of an eye, the entire Ming army began to change formations, except for the 10,000 heavy pikemen under Li Dingguo's department, the remaining more than 50,000 Ming army officers and soldiers were slowly retreating in an orderly manner.
Although the soldiers of the Ming army were suddenly attacked by the Manchurian army with blue flag iron cavalry, tens of thousands of soldiers did not panic too much, and the entire army was still very calm.
After seeing the movement of the Ming army, Jilharang, who was leading the army to charge, also let out a heartfelt exclamation: "It seems that Shang Kexi that dog slave was defeated unjustly, but this Ming army is elite, far from being comparable to the ordinary Ming army!" However, compared with my Daqing Iron Ride, it is still a little worse! ”
After saying that, Zilharang ordered the Manchurian army with blue flags to immediately change formations, and the 15,000 iron cavalry immediately separated from the left and right after hearing the sound of the horn, and the entire cavalry formation turned into two high-speed charging iron cavalry armies in a blink of an eye, one left and one right towards the 10,000 heavy pikemen under Li Dingguo's department.
In an instant, the 15,000 Manchurian cavalry with blue flags led by Zilharang formed a huge encirclement, galloping in a circle outside the phalanx of 10,000 heavy pikemen, and the smoke and dust from countless war horses shrouded the 10,000 Ming soldiers, and the scene ten steps away was no longer clear.
Seeing this, Li Dingguo immediately understood that the Qing army's iron cavalry wanted to disrupt his own large array with cavalry shooting, so he immediately shouted loudly: "The rain of arrows is coming!" ”
"Boom! Boom! Boom! ”
The drums of war sounded, and 10,000 heavy pikemen put on the iron masks on their helmets, and then lined up in close formation, holding on to their positions, like 10,000 iron statues. The double layers of heavy armor on the soldiers' bodies shone in the sunlight, making people know at a glance that this was an extremely tough armor, completely protecting the 10,000 soldiers.
"Put!"
Zilharang screamed and gave the order to attack. I saw a rain of arrows like dark clouds shooting towards 10,000 Ming soldiers, and the piercing sound of breaking the sky resounded in the sky.
Almost at the same time, Li Dingguo and 10,000 heavy pikemen lowered their heads slightly, the helmets and iron masks on the heads of the soldiers kept bouncing off the arrows that came at them, and the double layers of heavy armor on the soldiers were not far less powerful than the cavalry arrows of the rifle bows.
After a battle, the 15,000 Manchurian army of Su Hailing with blue flags galloped for a long time, and kept firing arrows outside the strong array composed of Li Dingguo's soldiers, except for a few arrows that hit the necks, eyes and other vital parts of the Ming soldiers, most of the arrows were blocked by the armor of the Ming soldiers.
Seeing that the cavalry of the Iron Cavalry Army did not achieve any substantial results, and the 10,000 elites of the Ming Army had formed a tight circle formation, like a huge hedgehog, which made the wolf of the Manchurian Army with the Blue Flag Iron Cavalry feel helpless, and could only roar in anger around the circle, but there was nothing to be done.
Jierharang led the iron cavalry army to circle twice outside the Ming army's main array, but still couldn't find any flaws in the Ming army's large array. At this moment, Zilharang suddenly saw Dai Shan leading the army to rush away, rushing towards Liu Wenxiu's department, which was covering the retreat of most of the Ming army.
At this time, 15,000 soldiers under Liu Wenxiu's department were retreating in formation, and the soldiers of the large army withdrew to the defense line in order to cover the soldiers of the Ming army of the brigade, and the marching speed of the entire large array was very slow. Moreover, the soldiers of Liu Wenxiu's department were not equipped with heavy spears, and even the number of horse cutting knives was not very large, and the weapons equipped by the soldiers were ordinary knives and spears, and the armor on the soldiers was far less solid than the armor equipped by Li Dingguo's 10,000 heavy pikemen.
Due to the tight defense of Li Dingguo's army, the Qing army could not find a flaw, and there was no way to wait for an opportunity to break through. So, Dai Shan had an insight into the entire battlefield again, and it didn't take long for him to keenly discover Liu Wenxiu's department and discover this once-in-a-lifetime fighter.
In Dai Shan, he led the Manchu Army to turn around and charge at Liu Wenxiu's troops, and Jierharang also gave up Li Dingguo's army and led the Manchu Army with a blue flag to charge Liu Wenxiu's soldiers.
The smoke and dust raised by the two Qing army iron cavalry armies rushed towards Liu Wenxiu's officers and soldiers, who were slowly retreating, like a large swarm of locusts, rushing over like a sea of mountains.
Liu Wenxiu was taken aback when he saw this, but he still calmed down and shouted loudly: "Hold on to the place!" It's time for war! ”
Upon hearing the order, the 15,000 soldiers immediately stopped retreating, and reorganized their large formations on the spot to prepare to meet the Qing army's iron cavalry. Li Dingguo saw that the Manchu army's red flag iron cavalry and the Manchu army's blue flag iron cavalry were all rushing towards Liu Wenxiu's headquarters, and he was very anxious, and hurriedly led 10,000 heavy pikemen to support, and the army marched in formation, moving back neatly and quickly.
At this time, several large armies on both sides of the entire battlefield were moving rapidly, all wanting to seize the opportunity. Although Li Dingguo's officers and soldiers acted quickly, the movement speed of the hoplites was always a weakness, where could they catch up with the Tartar cavalry army?
It didn't take long for the Manchu army led by Dai Shan to hit the large array of Liu Wenxiu's department, and almost instantly led the army to rush into the large array, and the soldiers of the Ming army fell like straw blown down by the wind, and the entire large array suddenly fell into a huge crisis.
Seeing this, Liu Wenxiu immediately commanded the rear army of the large array and the soldiers on the left and right wings to immediately gather in the middle, preparing to block the impact of the Qing army's iron cavalry with a dense formation. But the disaster is not a one-way street, just when Liu Wenxiu concentrated all his strength to block the Red Banner Iron Cavalry Army of the Manchurian Army of Daishan Division, Jierharang led the Manchu Army with a blue flag Iron Cavalry Army to rush in from the right front of the Ming Army's large array, and immediately rushed the Ming Army's large array, which was already in decline.
Although the officers and men of the Ming army who did not restrain the weapons of the iron cavalry army were very heroic, they were still inevitably in crisis in the face of the suppression of absolute power, and the entire large array became precarious under the continuous impact of the Manchu army's red flag and the Manchu army's blue flag army, and could completely collapse at any time. Moreover, the casualties of the Ming army under the wanton rush of the Tartar captives also rose sharply, and it would not be long before they could not maintain the defense of the large array due to insufficient troops.
For this reason, Liu Wenxiu was so anxious that he even led two hundred guards to rush to the front for command. However, no matter how hard Liu Wenxiu tried, he could not control the situation of the battle to continue to deteriorate, and he couldn't help but feel anxious.
"If we don't hold out until General Lee arrives, the army is bound to collapse. At that time, not only will General Li be isolated and surrounded by the Tartars, but the tens of thousands of soldiers behind me who have not completely retreated into the defense line will also be overwhelmed by the rout, and then the Tartars will take advantage of the situation to break through the defense line! ”
It was precisely when he saw the crisis that Liu Wenxiu made up his mind that no matter how much price he paid, even if he compensated all the 15,000 soldiers, he must not take a step back!
"Soldiers! Today there is death and no life, death war! Fight to the death! ”
Liu Wenxiu roared, took the lead in rushing forward with a gun, and killed the Manchu army of Red Banner Iron Cavalry who rushed over not far away. Seeing that the main general was so heroic, the surrounding Ming army soldiers were all demoralized, and they followed closely behind, rushing towards the high-speed Tartar iron horse, not hesitating to use their own flesh and blood to resist the iron hooves of the Tartars!
Soon, the Manchurian army of Red Banner Iron Cavalry arrived!
Liu Wenxiu was calm and unpanicked, dodged the impact of the two Tartars with one dodge, and then the spear in his hand was like lightning, stabbing eight times in a row, stabbing two Tartars to death, stabbing down three war horses, and causing a lot of confusion to the vanguard of the Tartar Iron Cavalry army.
And the thousands of soldiers of the Ming army who followed behind Liu Wenxiu were also not afraid of life and death, and fought with the Tartar iron cavalry who were charging at high speed. Those soldiers of the Ming army did not have the skills of Liu Wenxiu, and the soldiers could only fight with weapons and iron horses that were not in their hands, and even used their bodies to withstand the impact of war horses, but everyone was fighting, and no one took a step back!
The battle lasted less than a stick of incense, and after the hard work of Liu Wenxiu's soldiers, the Manchu army led by Dai Shan was still running at high speed, and after a while, it swept past Liu Wenxiu's location and continued to rush away.
Liu Wenxiu looked at the iron cavalry army that was gradually moving away with an angry face, supporting his already tired and crumbling body with the spear in his hand, panting heavily, almost collapsed to the ground with exhaustion. The surviving Ming soldiers around were also exhausted, and they staggered back and forth to recover their strength.
At this moment, a roar of iron hooves galloping, Liu Wenxiu looked back, and saw that Jierharang was leading the Manchurian army with blue flags and iron cavalry rushing towards here. Wherever the Tartar cavalry passed, the soldiers of the Ming army retreated one after another, and they could not resist at all, and the casualties of the soldiers were extremely huge.
Seeing this, Liu Wenxiu was furious, and his body also burst out with tremendous strength in an instant, and he roared loudly: "Soldiers! Fight to the death! Rush with me! Kill Hu! ”
The hundreds of surviving Ming soldiers around and the more than 2,000 Ming soldiers who rushed to support from other parts of the big formation roared angrily, followed Liu Wenxiu and launched a charge, and the soldiers formed a general formation and killed the Manchu army with blue flag iron cavalry that was approaching at high speed, without fear!
Seeing this, Zilharang was also amazed, and his heart was even stronger, and he shouted loudly: "Defeat the Ming army!" Kill the main general of the Ming army! Warriors, speed up your charge! ”
