"Drink!"

After Melerjangjing gave the order, the four-row array began to stride forward, and Melerjankyo himself was concerned about the movements of the cavalry on both flanks and the enemy cavalry on the opposite side. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Riding against each other is to see if the other party has the courage and means to break the formation.

If the enemy cavalry turned and fled, or if the Mongols tried to win with a short and weak bow, then the final victory could only be that of the Jurchens.

If you don't accept the infantry battle, the cavalry must only retreat, as long as you retreat, it means that morale is frustrated and the queue is chaotic, a small number of elite cavalry of the Jurchens can pounce over, chase and fight, and the infantry formation can also instantly become a cavalry pursuit.

The Jurchens are famous for their foot combat, but they are also good at cavalry warfare, whether they are infantry or cavalry combat, the right to decide and the initiative are in their hands.

The reaction of the cavalry on the opposite side was not as expected by Melerzhangjing, and after entering the hundred paces, the cavalry of more than 100 people suddenly divided and ran towards the two wings.

Meljangin had a contemptuous look on his face, this was still the Mongol set, the wings crossed and ran sideways, shooting arrows into the center, hoping to use this method of warfare to disrupt the formation of the infantry formation.

He didn't know that for He Yusheng's cavalry, this small-scale battle in front of him was also a very novel experience.

The infantry formation is strict and complete, the defense is tight, the speed of the infantry forward is very fast, no one hesitates, the archers have begun to shoot back with the infantry bow on the way, the arrows are still very sparse at first, but the Jurchen archers shoot extremely fast, and soon there are arrows flying towards the cavalry in mid-air.

Arrows rained down, at the beginning and Yusheng's cavalry officers did not take it to heart, they fought with the Mongols many times, and saw the power of bows and arrows, but they soon felt the power of the Donglu bow, the Jurchens' bows and arrows shot fast and urgently, almost without pause, at least the first dozen rounds were like this, nearly 100 people kept shooting, and there was no pause, the rain of arrows flew in the air, like a torrential rain on the top of people's heads, chests, backs, sides, and the horses under them were instantly covered by the rain of arrows.

The Jurchen arrows were not only shot intensively but also not under the northern captives, and the cavalry began to have people fall off their horses, and the arrows hit the cuirass with a proper sound, and where the cuirass could not cover it, the arrows easily tore through the skin, shot into the muscles or nailed to the bones, until the bones were cracked or even broken.

Several of the cavalrymen were shot in broken ribs, some were shot in the thighs, and several were shot in the vital points of their horses, and the cavalry was thrown off their horses as they pounced.

Ma Wu was hit by an arrow in the chest, and the flat heavy arrow arrow swept a long string of sparks in his chest, and he felt the chest vibrate, as if he had been hit by a hammer, and his chest made him feel a burst of pain, although it did not cause substantial damage, but at this time, Ma Wu had the most intuitive and clear understanding of the Jurchen bow and arrow.

There was a clanging sound in the cavalry, and heavy armor-piercing arrows kept falling in the ranks.

If it weren't for the heavy armor, this first round of arrow rain alone would have caused heavy casualties among the cavalrymen.

Rao is like this, and more than ten people have fallen off the horse, some are seriously injured, some are slightly injured, and some people are obviously not saved and died.

It is difficult for the riders of Yusheng to accept such a casualty rate, after all, it is a cavalry battle of hundreds of people, they have fought many times with the Mongols on the grassland before they arrived at the Thirteen Mountains, and the heavy armored cavalry of one or two hundred people can catch thousands of northern captives running rabbits all over the mountain, and the eastern captives in front of them not only dare to take the initiative to dismount and fight, the accuracy of the bow and arrows, the rate of fire, and the power of the arrows are far more than the northern captives, under the rain of arrows, there is almost a sense of suffocating horror!

Later generations thought that the bow and arrow was a child's toy, and thought that the Donglu set the world with arrows was just a rumor that it would be chiseled, but in fact, the cavalry and archery of the Dongyu, the infantry array, the brave and good fighting of the soldiers, and the bow and arrow skills and strength that were boiled out were far from being comparable to the Ming army or the Mongols at that time, and were far above the weak and small nations such as Korea, and it is no wonder that this army repeatedly defeated the Ming border army far above it.

"Shoot the firecracker!"

The cavalry of the two and a half squadrons had already broken through to about sixty paces, and had already entered the effective firing range of the firecracker, if it was not for the great power of the bow and arrow, which had already given a serious threat to the cavalry, the commander of Ma Wu should wait until he entered about forty paces before giving the order to fire, in that case, the power of the cavalry would be greater, and it would also cause more casualties to the Jurchens.

Almost instantly, everyone's guns were released!

More than 120 firearms were fired within a minute.

Each gun spewed fire, thick white smoke came out from behind the gun, and the three-penny projectile spewed out at a rapid speed, flying straight to the place where the target was.

"Ah......h

After the sound of the gun, there were also screams from the Jurchen queue.

This round of beating and releasing at least 30 to 40 Jurchen infantry soldiers were wounded, some were smashed in the head, some had a large piece of their chest sunken, blood spurted out of their mouths and noses, some were hit in the abdomen, and their colorful intestines were thrown out of the huge wounds.

At this time, the Jurchens discovered that those wearing cotton armor were more likely to protect against the damage caused by fire bullets than chain mail or iron scale armor, and the cotton armor effectively absorbed most of the kinetic energy.

Almost in the blink of an eye, Mel Zhangjing, who was standing in the middle of the battle, watched as the Ming cavalry overturned nearly forty of his subordinates, some of whom were obviously killed by death, and some were seriously wounded, even those who were slightly injured, due to the extremely high probability of infection, were very likely to die after the battle.

Mel Zhangjing immediately ordered, and the more than forty horsemen on both flanks immediately rushed in reverse towards those cavalry who had already rushed through the array.

Ma Wu galloped on the horse, he had already crossed the firecracker, ready to reload the medicine, but the chasing horse behind him bit up almost in a moment, the two sides were only two hundred and dozens of steps, and the distance was getting closer and closer, if you don't readjust the speed of the horse, it will be like a defeat, if you readjust the speed of the horse and then load the medicine, the time will not catch up anyway!

"Company commander," Lin Nanxing, who was galloping on his side, shouted: "Turn around, adjust the speed, use the saber!" ”

Ma Wu was very decisive, and immediately said: "The whole company slows down, turns around, and the whole team!" ”

More than one hundred and ten horsemen immediately slowly stopped their horses, and the horses gasped violently, and the cavalrymen stuck their firearms into their pockets, and then pulled out the sabers on their waists.

When the whole team was formed, the Jurchen cavalry on the opposite side had already adjusted the speed of their horses to the fastest, and more than forty horsemen galloped on the grassland, rushing towards this side.

"Hedging, who is afraid?" Xu Zhen's fair face showed a touch of ruthlessness, don't say that the Jurchens are not as numerous as them, even if they are the same number of people, or more than He Yusheng, what can they do?

"For the sake of Heyusheng, for the sake of adults."

"For the sake of adults!"

All the knights chanted together, and the morale of Yusheng's cavalry was high, and the long-term training had not only caused them to form a neat queue, but even when riding forward, even the horses that stepped down maintained a fairly neat posture.

"Little Jump March."

Less than two hundred paces apart, under Ma Wu's military orders, the speed of movement of the cavalry increased again.

The war horse also seemed to know that the critical moment was coming, and began to snort vigorously, and the legs were re-exerted.

The smell of men's sweat mingled with the smell of horses, people shouted and cheered up their fellow soldiers, and officers and sergeants shouted vigorously and shouted at the recruits, who were a little stiff in their movements...... Being a knight is originally the greatest honor, even if it is a new soldier, you must maintain the most high-spirited posture.

The Mongols had already run hundreds of paces away, and they were still breathing, seizing the best opportunity to recover quickly.

Seeing that Yusheng's cavalry and the Jurchens were on par in the first round, the look in the eyes of the Mongols became particularly complicated. They looked at each other, exchanging views in their hearts, the offensive and defensive sides just now played a high level, and Yusheng's cavalry hit far and ruthlessly, its power is far above the level of firearms of the Ming army, if it is the Ming army's three-eyed guns, a distance of fifty or sixty paces, and a horse shooting, it is almost ineffective, at most under the favor of luck, it can hit three or five people, and it has no effect on the Jurchens.

And the power of He Yusheng's cavalry is far beyond everyone's imagination, and within the attack range of the Jurchen archery, and Yusheng's cavalry also gave the other party a heavy slap.

The Jurchen bow and arrow is also a preemptive strike, the bow and arrow are strong and powerful, although the cavalry are not all dressed in heavy iron armor or cuirassia like the lancers, but there are also a considerable number of cuirassiers, most of the rest of the cavalry also have armor on the body, the worst is also cotton armor plus a layer of chain mail, the protection is not weak, and under the bow and arrow of the Jurchens, the cavalry who were almost unharmed by the Mongols were also hit hard.

In particular, the Jurchens' response was also very fast, showing the commander's rich battlefield experience.

When the cavalry and the Mongolian cavalry were fighting, they used fire guns to open the way, disrupt the opponent's formation, charge the formation or rush through the weak point, and then use the time charge of the horse speed buffer, re-release, and then rush, after a few rounds, under the sharp firearms strike, the Mongols only had one way to flee, but the Jurchens met the enemy in a foot formation, and countered with elite cavalry, and finally made the cavalry unable to continue to play, only to hedge with them!

It can be said that up to now, both sides have demonstrated an extremely high level of tactics and coping capabilities, as well as the most basic qualities of excellent soldiers on the battlefield, courage, perseverance, intelligence, and indispensable.

Hearing the buzzing discussions of everyone around him, Fried Flower sighed, this time he really felt his heroic twilight!
