Bu Sang and Su Sang are both in the array, and this raid on Li Zhuang is very important, and even the meaning of entering the border this time is here. If they can't rob He Yusheng's large amount of wealth, they will have no way to explain to the herdsmen after they go back, and even their own tribe will cause riots.

"Hmph, I really don't know if I'm alive or dead." Susangtaiji looked at the array on the opposite side and let out a cold snort from his nose.

Bu Nang frowned and said, "Don't underestimate it, where did this Ming army come from?" ”

Bu Nang this year is almost fifty, thirty years ago he is a thousand people tribe of the Inner Khalkha Taiji, once followed the Tosu Bahai and fried flowers many times into the Kou Ming Kingdom, has broken through the eastern Liaodong border wall many times, once has been killed to Liaoyang City, the eastern Mongolia in I was appeased and the Ming Dynasty also fought for 20 years, in the past ten years because Lin Dan Khan changed his strategy, fried flowers are old, this has reduced the number and scale of entering the border, more than ten years ago, more than 100,000 scale into the Kou often occur, Bu Nang has also fought with the Ming army many times.

In his experience, the combat effectiveness of the border army of the Ming army is not strong, and the combat ability is similar to that of ordinary herdsmen, but because the herdsmen ride horses and have good archery skills, they are still much more powerful than ordinary Ming troops.

When Li Chengliang was in charge of Liaozhen, Bu Nang also invaded Liaodong with the army many times, and the battalion soldiers encountered basically did not cause any trouble to them, just cannon fodder sent up.

Only the battalions and families led by Li Chengliang and generals at all levels, those elite Ming troops were the deadliest threat to the Mongols.

Even so, Li Chengliang rarely led his troops to face a large force of Mongolian cavalry, because every time there was an invasion of more than 100,000 people, even if there were only a few thousand or 10,000 or 20,000 soldiers, but plus the herdsmen were very terrifying forces, all of them were felt bags and herdsmen riding horses and bows within dozens of miles, and the families of the Ming army were all hundreds, and the most Li Chengliang's families were only a few thousand, and there was still a chance for thousands of elite people to face 200,000 peasants, and there was no chance for 200,000 or even 400,000 herdsmen to gather together. Therefore, Li Chengliang's tactic is to avoid the sharp edge, wait for the Mongols to grab almost the rear-end attack, and cut off the heads of hundreds of herdsmen to be considered a big victory, and you can report the merit.

Of course, Li Chengliang is not completely passive to fight back, sometimes he will lead the elite family to "smash the nest", in fact, it is to use a small number of elite cavalry to sneak attack the Mongols' pastures, under the raid, the Ming army is few and elite, and the Mongols are many and scattered, as long as the light cavalry enters, beheads and returns, and quickly retreats before the Mongols react, this tactic is still very useful.

Of course, if you don't use it well, it is Li Rusong, Li Rusong died in this kind of sneak attack, was known by the Mongols in advance, made dumplings, and a generation of famous generals died on the battlefield.

Li Chengliang spent a lifetime, using the method of rear-end retaliation and sneak attack and decapitation to cut off countless heads of the Beiyu, and achieved the prestige of the Liaodong King of the Li family, but he has not had a real large-scale battle with the Beiyu in his life, compared to Qi Jiguang's use of cars, steps, and horses to swing the array, and the first battle made the Beiyu not commit a step in Jizhen for ten years, but the real enemy is outside the country, and the realm of the famous generals who keep the people truly safe, that is really far away.

Bu Bag has a lot of experience, but the scene in front of him still doesn't feel right.

"Sunantai Ji, I've never seen anything like this." Bu Nang said: "It seems that there are more than 3,000 people, judging from the armor, there is no doubt that they are the elite of the border army of the Ming Kingdom, and they should all be the generals' families, and they will never be battalion soldiers." But if you are a family member, there is almost no cavalry on the opposite side, and I have fought for thirty years, and I have never seen a Ming country Ding who does not ride a horse. ”

Su Nang said: "That's the battalion soldiers? The battalion is better to fight. ”

Bu Nang shook his head: "But I have been fighting for thirty years, and I have never seen all the battalion soldiers wearing armor." ”

Su Nang said: "Since you are here, you have to fight, you can't be scared away by this battle, there will be no such opportunity in the future." ”

Su Nang's eyes were full of greed, they searched a few villages a few miles away, caught some people who did not escape, and after interrogation, determined the detailed address of Li Zhuang, Li Zhuang in front of Su Nang is what a rich place in the Ming Kingdom should look like, thousands of dense houses in a row, and there are a lot of exquisite courtyard houses in the north, as well as a large area of factory area, obvious storage area, you can imagine how rich it is here, how many items will be hidden.

Bu Nan nodded and said, "That's the truth." ”

Su Nang pulled out his knife and shouted loudly: "Sons, there is Heyusheng's warehouse ahead, after grabbing it, everyone will have a share!" ”

Bu Nang also drew his knife and said loudly: "This battle will be won, it is bound to win, no matter what soldiers and horses are on the opposite side, they have no cavalry, only lose and not win, they can only hold on and be beaten by us in vain!" ”

The relatives around the two of them also shouted together, spreading the words of the two Taiji throughout the army!

At the beginning, their subordinates were also intimidated by the opposite formation, in front of them was a silver flash, the archers were mainly chainmail, a small ring was polished into silver, thousands of people wore chain mail, it was really silver dazzling, these herdsmen had never seen such a magnificent military formation, everyone was a little nervous, these herdsmen were stronger than the Han farmers in riding horses and archery, in fact, they had never experienced strict and systematic military training, and some older herdsmen had also entered the customs and looted, However, at that time, there was no such a large number of armor-clad Ming troops, they just followed the armor cavalry forward, encountered a large force of Ming cavalry retreated, it was really not good to start fighting, of course there were losses and wins, and there were many dead people, but Taiji's words are also very reasonable, the Ming army has no cavalry, this battle is a sure win for them, they can't fight down and retreat, can the two-legged infantry still catch up with the four-legged cavalry?

At this time, Bu Nang ordered that the two wings should first rush forward, take turns shooting arrows to disrupt the array of the Ming army, and slowly move forward in the middle, concentrate the armored soldiers, and once they find the gap of the Ming army, they will use the armored soldiers to break through the gap.

After the drummers of the Chinese army were ready, they saw a row of blowers puffing out their cheeks and blowing a thick and slightly dull, long-tuned horn, the battlefield was beautiful and the weather was outrageously good, people could see the blue sky when they raised their heads, and there were green fields just emerging in front of them, surrounded by large areas of green and clear water, and the Mongolian cavalry in their early 10,000s and more than 3,000 archers were concentrated within a radius of less than ten miles, and a big war was about to begin!

The horsemen on both sides began to move forward slowly, and they had just finished their formation for less than a quarter of an hour, and then Bu Nang and Su Nang gave the order to attack, and the queue was suddenly a little chaotic, but fortunately it was a slow march, and the queue could be adjusted again as it went.

When the thousands of cavalry moved, even if they were marching slowly, the sound of horses' hooves like thunder suddenly overshadowed the sound of the horn, and all the people's eyes widened, and an indescribable emotion surged into everyone's hearts, some were excited, some were frightened, some were calm, and some were afraid to death.

At this moment, a feeling that can only be found on the battlefield surged, everyone's blood flow accelerated, heartbeat accelerated, and mouth was dry, in this mood, people's physical energy will be lost quickly, and those who can try to stabilize their emotions on this battlefield and preserve their physical strength are the elite soldiers of a hundred battles.

Whether it is the Mongols or the archers, there will be people panicking at this moment, the archers overcome this emotion with long-term training and battlefield discipline, while the Mongols are fierce and slashing by nature, plus the excitement of looting the east and the west, both sides have the desire to fight and the reason for fighting, and the battle can begin!

Both armies were moving very quickly, and there were no small cavalry engagements, so the Mongols could calmly set up their formations, and the archers were also in formation, and set up a fairly wide horizontal formation.

In the eyes of the Mongols, as long as the two wings of the Ming army are disturbed, and then break through in the middle, this kind of horizontal formation will be difficult to care about, and then as soon as the Ming army array collapses, the battle below will be much simpler and easier.

The Mongols had only a small number of armored horsemen on their wings, mostly herdsmen in gray and yellow jackets, wearing large round caps on their heads, and began to shout from a long distance.

Wang Changfu's eyes were full of contempt, and he shouted: "All divisions and bureaus are stable, and tell the people below that the Tartars' riding bows are weak, and there is no killing or wounding at fifty paces, let them go about fifty paces and we will fight again." ”

Sun Yao and his assistants stood on the left flank, they were in the middle of the two bureaus, and in front of the staff division was where the left wing artillery group was located.

There are four copper cannons placed here, the body of more than 400 catties is cast a little rough, the barrel is polished very cleanly as much as possible, there are Wangshan in front of and behind the barrel to help aim, the gun body is mounted on two rounds of gun carriages, and the tail of the gun can be adjusted to the height and elevation angle...... This cannon was cast by Zhang Han, technicians from Macao, and the technology of the Firearms Bureau, which had originally manufactured various types of Chinese-style artillery, and it is also the style of field cannon that is now the most used in Europe.

As for the Hongyi cannon of the Ming army, it was actually a naval gun, which was too heavy, and the preparation of the gun carriage and artillery group was far behind the times.

In Europe in this era, under the development of mathematics and geometry, military doctrine and the use of firearms have been ahead of China too much, this era is only a mature artillery use of the theory of a variety of in Europe, in the hands of the Swedish king Gustav in the same era, the tactics of artillery concentrated fire to attack the dense enemy have been formed, and later carried forward by Napoleon, even in this time and space, Europe has mobilized hundreds of large and small artillery pieces to participate in the campaign, and China at the same time is still using the lowest level of small artillery, Large artillery has gone the wrong way again, and can only be used to defend the city, which is not conducive to field warfare, and the small artillery that can be used in the field is actually just a large artillery with an increased caliber and ammunition load.
