Chapter 1167: Feng Shui Rotates
When the flintlock pistol came into range, the gun crackled, and the situation was the same as the previous charge, no, not even the same as the one just now.
This time, the cavalry of Duoyan Sanwei was divided, and the troops were divided into two routes, with 3,000 cavalry attacking the left flank and 4,000 cavalry attacking the right flank. Compared to the last 6,000 cavalry charge, the pressure was greatly reduced.
Therefore, Zhang Zhijie didn't have any worries in his heart, he just watched quietly, silently estimating in his heart that this time the cavalry charge of Duoyan Sanwei was likely to not be able to rush with a single horse.
Because the last defeat had already left a shadow in their hearts, this time, once there were too many casualties, the collapse would be faster than the last charge. Because they no longer have a psychological advantage.
In fact, even the hearts of his children and grandchildren were a little shaken, let alone those ordinary cavalrymen. The muskets crackled incessantly, cavalry fell, charges were stopped, and they could only be slaughtered continuously, with corpses and blood paved with every step forward.
The feeling of horror and despair can only be understood when charging, especially for those who have already experienced it. The faces of his children and grandchildren were very ugly, and he was protected by brave guards, so there was nothing wrong, but he found that many more cavalry had died, which made him sad.
He was very worried, he had already noticed that their charge seemed to be even harder than the previous one. Even he felt this way, not to mention the cavalry who had already charged once, the pressure in their hearts was even greater.
Zhang Zhijie quietly watched the charging cavalry, and silently weighed it in his heart, it should be almost! Zhang Zhijie's idea had just been born, and the cavalry that was charging finally showed signs of dispersing, at first a few horses were frightened by the fear in their hearts and began to flee, and then the entire cavalry broke up at once.
The most feared thing finally happened, and the children and grandchildren shouted loudly with a blue face, but to no avail. The cavalry continued to disperse, leaving only his guards to follow him, and his guards were constantly falling off their horses.
"Don't beg, you can't resist it!" The guards around him shouted, and the cavalry around them had already dispersed, and even if they rushed to the front of the formation, it would be useless, because it had already been proven in that moment.
The children and grandchildren also understood that since the cavalry was about to be dispersed, only they were left, even if they rushed over, they could only fall into the Ming army's formation like Geert. Although he led the army to defeat twice, he did not want to die, and shouted to his children and grandchildren with some grief: "Withdraw! Retreat! ”
At this time, all the cavalry completely dispersed, and rushed towards the rear like a swarm. In fact, they were not alone, because on the left flank, the cavalry broke out much earlier.
Riding their horses and galloping away from the artillery bombardment, they found that their brothers who had attacked the left flank had also broken back. This attack still did not break the Ming army's large formation, and they lost a lot of men and horses. In two major battles, they lost more than 4,000 cavalry.
The children and grandchildren want to cry without tears, this is the real loss, I don't know if he will kill him after he goes back!
The cavalry of the charging Duoyan Sanwei broke up again, Zhang Zhijie's heart became agitated, and he immediately ordered: "Pass on the order of the general, order the cavalry to cover and kill the scattered grassland cavalry!" ”
Tian Shiyuan, who had been watching the battle from the rear, was excited when he saw that the cavalry of Duoyan Sanwei who charged again was defeated, and now these cavalry of Duoyan Sanwei suffered a big loss! Leaving so many corpses behind in both charges, this is a great victory that has not been seen in decades!
Just when he was excited, he received an order from the Governor, ordering him to lead the cavalry to cover the rout of Duoyan Sanwei. If he received such a military order in the past, he would definitely scold and chase down the steppe cavalry? Are you kidding?!
But now that I saw the cavalry of Duoyan Sanwei being defeated twice and leaving behind a corpse, how could I still have the heart of fear, and I only had a stirring in my heart, and I just wanted to show my skills and show myself in front of the Governor.
So after receiving the general's order, Tian Shiyuan immediately shouted excitedly: "The Governor has defeated the Tartars, brothers rush with me!" Kill the Tartars! ”
In fact, it wasn't just Tian Shiyuan who witnessed all this, whether it was the cavalry of the 3,000 battalions or the cavalry of Xuanfu who witnessed all this, the cavalry of Duoyan Sanwei was killed twice and scattered, leaving thousands of corpses behind, where do they still have the heart to fight? Now is the time to beat the reservoir dogs.
So when Tian Shiyuan shouted that a horse rushed out first, the cavalry behind all brandished their sabers and rushed out, and the rumbling horses' hooves resounded throughout the battlefield, and the cavalry of the Ming Dynasty finally dispatched, rushing towards the cavalry of Duoyan Sanwei with a rainbow of momentum.
This is the result that Zhang Zhijie wants, if the cavalry of Duoyan Sanwei retreats after the first breakdown, Zhang Zhijie really will not order the cavalry to cover up, because the musketeers have poor mobility and can't keep up at all.
It's just that if the cavalry covers up, it is not necessarily the opponent of the Duoyan Sanwei cavalry, but now it is different, the cavalry of Duoyan Sanwei has been defeated twice, and the morale has been greatly reduced, and the casualties are close to half.
At this time, whether in terms of strength or morale, his cavalry had the upper hand, and if it was all overturned by the rout of Duoyan Sanwei, it would be impossible to say.
The children and grandchildren took the rout all the way to meet the rout troops attacking the left flank, and at this time, the children and grandchildren were pale and no longer had any idea of attacking the Ming army. He led 10,000 cavalry to attack the Ming army, not only did not defeat the Ming army but folded into 4,000 cavalry, if he attacked the Ming army again, maybe the whole army would be annihilated here, then he would become a sinner of Duoyan Sanwei.
So after meeting his children and grandchildren with all the horses, he didn't think about it, and immediately planned to gallop to the depths of the grassland. At this time, he heard the rumbling hooves of horses behind him, and when he looked back, he found that the Ming cavalry, which had been shrinking, was actually rushing towards them!
There is some resentment in the hearts of the children and grandchildren, these Ming cavalry will pick up the cheap, why didn't they attack earlier? At this time, I rushed boldly to come, and if you really have the ability, don't be a shrinking turtle at the beginning!
The cavalry of the Ming people charged with great momentum, the scale was no less than 10,000 horsemen, and they glanced at their own cavalry, and only 6,000 cavalry had been lost, and more importantly, there was no morale after two routs.
If his cavalry is still in full morale, even if there are only 6,000 cavalry, he dares to face the more than 10,000 cavalry of the Ming Dynasty! But now everything is not mentioned, and the children and grandchildren can only choose to retreat.
