The generals who were waiting on the side suddenly received the order, and they rode their horses and whips away, and the banners in the Great Western Army changed, and the people and horses were mobilized, because Zhang Xianzhong's orders were arranged in accordance with the existing forces on the left and right wings, so except for the personal soldiers of the headquarters and the cavalry who acted quickly, there were no other army changes, so the formation was not chaotic and still strictly organized. [Full text reading. 】

The Qing army on the opposite side is also in the final arrangement before the battle, the banners of the generals are very eye-catching, and they are not far apart.

Wang Dingguo, the general of the Great West Huwei on the left flank of the array, saw at a glance that in the right flank of the Qing army on the opposite side, a huge banner with the character Wu was hunting and flying, and there was a line of small black characters on the side of the flag, which read: "Wang Wu of Pingxi of the Qing Han Army".

Although he has never been a Ming army, the name of the king of Pingxi is well known, and when he saw this banner, Wang Dingguo, who was born as a thief, immediately knew that there must be the world-famous Guanning iron cavalry in the group of cavalry on the opposite side.

When Zu Dashou was in the Guannei Qin Wang, he led the Guanning cavalry of only 3,000 people to beat the 36 battalions of thieves and wolves, without the power to parry, and its power was so fierce that Wang Dingguo, who was still a pawn under Gao Yingxiang, the king of Chuang, was deeply impressed, and now he saw that these enemies were on the opposite side, so that Wang Dingguo's heart hung in a panic, and he hurriedly arranged the formation, so that the pikemen and shield soldiers lined up in front, and the cavalry protected the outside and strictly guarded against the opposite iron cavalry.

As soon as the arrangement stopped, I heard a horn sound on the opposite side, and in the rough and long horn sound, the "dong dong" war drum sounded suddenly, and the high-pitched shouts in the Qing army formation began to move.

Wang Dingguo was very nervous, the sweat on his body came out, he stared at the Qing army tightly and didn't dare to blink, he looked at it for a while, but was surprised to find that the cavalry on the opposite side did not move, and it was the Chinese army foot soldiers who moved.

He breathed a sigh of relief for no reason, great, as long as Guan Ning Tieqi didn't move, he would be safe.

Wang Dingguo is short-sighted, he has fought a lifetime and is only entangled with the Ming army, not to mention the Tartars, even the Mongols have never fought each other, and he thinks in his mind that the most powerful army in the world is the Guanning army, but he doesn't know that now the Great Western Army has to face more than just the Guanning cavalry.

Sun Kewang of the front army, Wang Shangli of the Chinese army, and Zhang Xianzhong, who was immediately in the rear, all looked at the Qing army's foot soldiers who came out from behind the shield array with shocked faces, and their eyes were full of incredible colors.

It's not terrible for the cavalry to come out of the foot soldiers, it's just a big deal to be unexpected, and the terrible thing is that those foot soldiers are actually pushing shield carts one after another!

The shield carts were densely packed, larger and stronger than the shield carts used by the Great Western Army to attack Hanzhong City, all of which were made of thick wood and nailed whole, facing the enemy's side, the wooden planks were extremely heavy, covered with iron sheets, and there were small wheels below, so it was effortless to push.

Hundreds of shield carts lined up in a horizontal plane, spanning the entire front of the two armies against each other, and when I looked at the Great Western Army, except for the cavalry on both sides, as far as the eye could see, there was nothing to see except for the shield carts in front of me.

The bird commanders who stood at the front of the whole army and the archers who stood twenty paces behind them were all stupid, and those shield carts that were pushed over, it seemed that the cannons were not necessarily bad, so let them use the bird commanders and bows and arrows in their hands to go to S? Don't be funny!

The unexpected tactics completely disrupted Zhang Xianzhong's deployment, and also disrupted Sun Kewang's brain, as the former army commander, he was sharpening his knife and preparing to lead the troops to cover and kill the Tartar Chinese army once the two wings resisted the impact of the Tartar cavalry.

So when the shield cart rumbled in, Sun Kewang was at a loss, and the various strategies hidden in his heart seemed to have completely lost their correspondence, except for holding still, he couldn't think of any way to crack it.

The bird commanders who lined up in front of them looked at their leading generals, and the generals looked at the position of the former army commander behind them, but they were disappointed that they didn't see any instructions, he gritted his teeth, turned around, raised the waist knife in his hand, and shouted loudly: "Load, fill the medicine, light the fire rope!" ”

The archers in the back drew the gourd in the same way, and then shouted: "Take the arrow, raise the bow!" ”

The shield cart advanced very quickly, the distance was constantly shortening, and the interval of five hundred steps soon rolled down the wheels to less than a hundred paces, and the bird commander was a veteran, and he calmly estimated the distance, and as soon as the shield cart entered a hundred steps, he waved his arm fiercely.

With the cold light of the waist knife cutting through the air, a burst of smoke rose in front of the Great Western Formation, and the crackling gunshots rang out, and countless wolf's teeth and heavy arrows pierced through the smoke, flying into the air, and hitting the shield cart with lead bullets in front and back.

The three-penny lead struck the shield cart, knocking out the iron sheets one by one, and then bounced off the hard plank, falling to the ground, the heavy arrow arrow, which could pierce the armor, but also could not penetrate the thick plank, either into the plank, or slashed over the inclined plank.

These lead and arrows, like locusts crashing into an iron tower, have no effect except for adding some mottled D eyes on the front of the shield cart, and the Qing soldiers hiding behind the shield cart did not care at all, and the skin was not scratched a little, and they pushed the shield cart forward in an orderly manner.

"Clear, load, reload, hurry!" The Bird Commander shouted loudly, and he didn't know what to shout except for this.

The archer general was slightly more sober, and his order was obviously targeted: "Shoot the arrow, throw the S!" The top of the S shield car! ”

Because the shield car is more than one person high, the Great Western Army is far away, and it is impossible to see whether there is a cover on the shield car, if not, throw S to kill and injure the Qing soldiers hiding behind the shield car.

It's a pity that the sound of the arrows falling on the wood clearly told him that the top of these shield carts was also covered with wooden planks.

By the time the Bird Commanders had unleashed their two-wheeled guns, the shield cart had come closer than twenty paces away, and the shield cart was still intact under the blows of lead bullets and bows and arrows, and the people inside were of course intact. 、

When the bird commander was hurriedly reloading for the third time, a rain of arrows erupted behind the shield cart, and the Qing soldiers who followed the shield cart counterattacked.

The rain of arrows was accurate and violent, and the bird commanders and archers were scattered by S, and no one dared to stand in place and wait for death.

Sun Kewang had come back to his senses at this time, he deeply regretted that he should not leave those siege iron cannons under Hanzhong City and ignore them, if there were one or two cannons at this time, and a few rounds of iron bullets like watermelons, those turtle shells would not be so arrogant.

But regret is useless, Sun Kewang understands what to do next, the shield car is approaching, its purpose is just to engage in short combat, the Great Western Army as a military force started as a foot soldier, although the elite is in the cavalry, but there is still a group of heavy armor foot soldiers, everyone wears half waist armor and iron helmets, holding long and short fine iron weapons, and anyone has the power to fight.

"Fight to the death! Let Tartar know the bloody nature of Onishi Koro! Sun Kewang shouted encouragement, causing the former sergeant to scream wildly, Rulin's spear stood upright, the long knife was clanging, and countless pairs of blood-red eyes, either out of fear or madness, stared at the approaching shield cart and roared wildly.

On the battlefield, either become a madman or be killed by a madman.

While the shield cart was approaching, S kept sending arrows, S fell one after another former soldiers, the Great Western Army wanted to counterattack, but it couldn't put the bow and arrow S in, those shield carts were too close, there was no space.

Sun Kewang finally couldn't help it, waved his long knife, and ordered: "Attack!" ”

The front army rushed forward like a flood that opened the floodgates, erupting with earth-shattering shouts of killing.

At the same time, the shield cart stopped, and the bow and arrow that had been in S also stopped, and then the front baffle was lowered, and one by one, the dead soldiers of the Qing army wearing chain mail inside and cotton armor on the outside, holding long knives and huge sticks, rushed out of it with a shout.

The two armies were less than ten paces apart and collided together.

Sun Kewang stood behind the front army formation, commanding the battle, but he only watched for a moment, and suddenly realized that he was doomed.

The Tartar's riding S is powerful, but, the most powerful, it seems that it should be a foot pawn.

The front army rushed to the front of several battalions, like a group of vegetables rushing up, by the wolf-like Tartar dead soldiers, they cut off their heads, the Tartar soldiers shot fiercely, with tacit understanding, not afraid of death, not avoiding the sword at all, only according to the key points of the Great Western Army, but their armor is thick, not easy to be injured and fatal.

The Great Western Army and the Qing Army intersected like fire and water, and the Qing Army was like water, spreading through, and in the blink of an eye, the Great Western Front Army was thoroughly extinguished.

Sun Kewang was hit in the shoulder by an arrow and dragged down by his own soldiers, Wang Shangli's Chinese army immediately responded to it, but the Qing army drums behind him were loud, and a steady stream of elite Bayala soldiers behind the shield car rushed up, like a knife that broke through tofu, and directly stirred up the Chinese army of the Great Western Army.

Zhang Xianzhong looked at this scene with an incredible face, and couldn't believe his eyes, the Great Western Army that dominated the world was so vulnerable, and in less than a stick of incense, the powerful Su Wei Chinese Army was devastated.

Before he could react, the earth trembled again, the sound of horses' hooves suddenly rose, and the Qing cavalry on both wings moved.

If the infantry-thrust is compared to a tidal wave, then the cavalry is a torrent, rushing and unstoppable.

Wang Dingguo and Liu Tingju were almost stunned, and they had the intention to help the Chinese army, but they were afraid that the two wings of the Qing army on the opposite side would take advantage of the situation and dare not move.

At this moment, the Qing army really moved, and the reactions of the two were different, Wang Dingguo ordered the foot soldiers to wait in a gun formation, and the cavalry detoured into the distance, preparing to rush and kill from behind when the Qing army was attacking the foot soldiers; Liu Tingju, the old cavalry from the border army, didn't have so many fancy intestines, so he directly ordered the foot soldiers to hold on, and personally led the cavalry to rush head-on, and he wanted to hedge against the Qing cavalry.

The tactics of the two, one is serious, the other is violent, but the end is the same.

Defeated, defeated.

The cavalry of the Qing army was dominated by Mongolian cavalry, and the Han army Guanning army and the Eight Banners Army were paved, they didn't want to carry it hard with the Great Western Army at all, and drew a circle with amazing horsemanship, and poured a ** arrow rain on the Great Western Army, although the cavalry of the Great Western Army was elite, but compared with the Mongolians who grew up on these horses, it was much worse, not to mention the difference in speed and endurance between the types of horses on both sides.

Run, can't run people, S, S is not as accurate as others, this is under the condition of riding S as the main way of attack, how to fight?

After two or three waves of arrow rain, the two wings of the Great Western Army, whether it was foot soldiers or cavalry, were no longer formed, and Liu Tingju was killed by several arrows in the first wave of arrow rain.

The Qing soldiers roared and turned back, this time they didn't draw circles, and directly showed their sabers and maces.

When Wang Dingguo was smashed by a mace, he finally understood that the Qing army didn't need to take advantage of the situation at all, they had the strength to step into the battle, and the cavalry they were proud of was a joke in front of them.

Zhang Xianzhong was escorted by the rear army and fled, his 100,000 army has turned into scattered soldiers all over the mountains, at this time, he has understood Li Zicheng's mood in a stone, and understands why he abandoned Xi'an's nest and rushed south.

It's all a last resort!
