Chenzhou, Zhoujiakou Town. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

The endless prosperity of the past has been blown away by the storm, and the three years of war have completely changed the appearance of this place. All that is left is the mark of war. Camp after barracks, ditch after ditch.

When Zhoujiakou frequently appeared in people's mouths, no one regarded it as an important commercial port, but regarded it as a military place.

It was at odds with Xihua and Shangshui, forming a strong barrier that separated the war from the city of Chenzhou.

Five days ago, the person who sat in Chenzhou was still Chen Huizu, who had been fighting with the Fu Han Army for three years. It's just that at that time, he was no longer the envoy of Anhui, but added the title of secretary of the military department and the seal of the general. But the moon is cloudy and sunny, people have good and bad luck, and Chen Shenzu's surrender was finally exposed.

Chen Shenzu is the second brother of Chen Huizu.

The Qing court immediately took Chen Huizu's military power, and Qianlong also wanted to recruit Chen Huizu to play in front of him, but the guards who came to deliver the decree did not immediately tell Chen Huizu himself what to do. However, Chen Huizu's years of exploits on the battlefield in Henan were in vain.

Question: Does Chen Huizu really want to stab his second child, Chen Shenzu?

A: That's for sure. And it won't just be a stab! -- Chen Huizu's heart.

Chen Shenzu, the second brother of Chen Huizu, also entered the military aircraft department from the head of the household department in October of the 29th year of Qianlong, and served as the military aircraft Zhang Jing (a subordinate official of the Minister of Military Aircraft), and the later official Guangdong Governor of the Grain Road and the governor of Guangzhou Prefecture. When the Fu Han army invaded Guangzhou, Chen Shenzu was sent to Shaozhou by Bayansan, and Bayansan asked Chen Shenzu to defend Shaoguan. Of course, the result is very cola, Bayan San looked too highly at Chen Shenzu, when the Fu Han army approached Shaoguan, Chen Shenzu was tied up by his subordinates, and the Qing army in Shaoguan opened the door and surrendered, and then before the capital, some people saw Chen Shenzu alive and moist, with a white fat face frequently haunted the Lingnan garrison, that was obviously surrender.

The news was quickly reported to Beijing City by the sticky pole, and then it was the next scene.

"The Chen family has such a disloyal and unfilial person, the minister is guilty, the minister is guilty......" Chen Huizu lay on the ground and cried bitterly.

The person who succeeded Chen Huizu was the former Ili general Yiltu.

Taking advantage of the change of the Qing army in the direction of Chenzhou, the 12th Brigade directly under Chen Hongtao of the Sixth Division, together with Chen Kaishan's Division, which had just been upgraded to a cavalry brigade, launched a tentative attack on the Qing army on the front line of Chenzhou.

As a result, little progress was made in the infantry. However, the cavalry on both sides launched bloody battles on the plains of eastern Henan.

The infantry of the Fuhan Army on the front line in Henan was equipped with rocket artillery, multi-barreled rocket launchers. Coupled with muskets and all kinds of artillery, it really has to be hard to put on the shelf, and the cavalry of the Qing army will really be good if they don't see it.

However, the cavalry of the Qing army did not attack the infantry of the Fu Han Army, which was seriously arrayed, and they were plagiarizing the back road, attacking transport convoys, reconnaissance, patrolling, harassment, pursuit, and other tasks, which were their forte.

The cavalry of the Fu Han Army launched a battle with the rangers.

Protect the rear route of the infantry of the Fu Han Army, protect the transport convoy, rob and kill the reconnaissance soldiers of the Qing army, surprise the patrol cavalry of the Qing army, and also harass the garrison of the Qing army, attack all the personnel and vehicles of the Qing army, and attack the supply convoy of the Qing army on the front line......

There is no difference at all in the work of the two teams. Even the effect is very similar - not very good.

The Qing army had strong barracks and garrisons everywhere, while the Fu Han army was cautious.

Today is the day when Chen Huizu left Chenzhou and set off for the north, outside Zhoujiakou Town, on the bank of the Yinghe River, two cavalry units, one white and one red, also happened to collide together.

The Fu Han army had a small hundred men and horses, and the Qing army also had a hundred people, all of whom were banner soldiers wearing white cotton armor.

Dong Wei slightly straightened his horse's head and looked at the Qing army horse team a mile away in front of him, his face grim.

The Qing army horse team is not all waste, the green camp horse team in the northwest is quite capable of fighting, and the combat effectiveness is far from being comparable to the green camp horse team in Zhili and Shandong. Then there is the Eight Banners Horse Team, but it is complex and changeable, which makes people scratch their heads. The combat effectiveness of the Beijing flag in Beijing is average, but it cannot be said that there are no strong soldiers. A little elite strength, the combat effectiveness can be called the most in the Qing army. It is one class stronger than the Jilin and Heilongjiang horse teams, note that it is a first class rather than a chip, and the combat effectiveness of the Mongolian horse team is quite average.

What kind of team is the Eight Banners horse team now?

Dong Wei raised his hand and touched the corner of his eye, there was a scar three or four inches long, which was left by a group of Eight Banner horsemen under the banner of the Xiao Cavalry Battalion.

"Di Di ......"

The sound of the brass trumpet blowing spread throughout the entire team, and the small 100-person Fuhan army horse team began to reorganize the queue, lined up in a long five-column formation, with twenty people in each row riding up and down.

Spears and sabers glistened in the winter sun.

The first row of the Fu Han army all held spears of one zhang and two feet, and the four rows behind them were mainly sabres with thickened sword backs, and the cavalry in the same row was only three feet apart from each other, and the front and rear rows of cavalry were three zhang apart from each other, and the last two rows were ten zhang apart.

Dong Wei came twenty steps in front of the formation and looked at the Eight Banners Horse Team lined up on the opposite side, his eyes were calm. The Qing army also began to reorganize its troops, but they did not start earlier than the Han army, nor did they complete the Han army as quickly.

Dong Wei listened to the spear in his hand, and there was a red flag hanging on the head of the spear, "Huh~", and was put in front of Dong Weiping with the sound of the wind.

"DiDi Di Di Tick ......"

The trumpet sounded again, and without any pre-war mobilization, the Fu Han army urged the war horses together.

The horses had already felt the solemnity of the battlefield, their front hooves slotting to the ground, and shaking their heads from side to side with a snort.

A small hundred cavalry instigated the horses to start advancing at the same time, and Dong Wei needed to accurately judge the distance to ensure that he collided with the Qing army when the horse's speed was at its highest. At present, the distance between them and the Qing Army's Eight Banners Horse Team is only about one mile, and they have to keep a slow pace to about 100 paces, and then they are charged to the limit.

For cavalry, such a requirement is absolutely pediatric. But now the cavalry battalion. The difficulty is how to maintain its relatively dense formation while gradually accelerating. No matter how strict the training and requirements are, the cavalry of the Fu Han Army, who have just come into contact with the requirements of this tactic, will not be able to achieve the distance of 100 zhang required by the above - as neat as a wall!

The small hundred war horses slowly advanced, and Dong Wei did not take the central position of the commander in the traditional cavalry array, but took the horses and turned them to the far right of the first column of cavalry.

The other cavalry in the front row observed his position and controlled his horse, and the entire cavalry array advanced straight to the rear Qing army.

As a person who knows the direction of history, it is impossible for Chen Ming not to know the weakness of the traditional cavalry in the East in modern warfare. The modern cavalry of Europe, the wall-type cavalry, Chen Ming said that he really didn't know much about it.

He couldn't imagine why the Cossack cavalry looked so vulnerable to the French cavalry when the cavalry fought. During the Napoleonic Wars.

The cavalry marches like a wall, marches like a wall, to put it bluntly, it is a heavy infantry tactic.

In the battle with the traditional cavalry with scattered formations, the frontal frontal line, the wall cavalry is superior, Chen Ming can understand. And what about the flanks? After the traditional cavalry with scattered formations is impacted, it is completely possible to quickly assemble on the flanks and attack the wall cavalry?

And it is difficult for the tightly lined wall cavalry to turn around and lose the horse's head.

Of course, the history of warfare is clearly documented that the wall cavalry won the competition with the traditional cavalry. With the great victory of the disparity between the enemy and the enemy again and again, he pushed himself to the altar. But Chen Ming really doesn't understand its god. Considering the differences between the Eastern and Western war horses, the different weapons, and even the different geographical terrain, he really didn't think that the modern cavalry was so awesome. Those battle examples that he still remembers, modern cavalry rarely completed the battle alone, and they all achieved 'brilliant victories' with the cooperation of a large number of artillery and infantry!

Or rather, they are the younger brothers of artillery and infantry units.

In the end, Chen Ming felt that the biggest difference between the traditional cavalry and the wall-type modern cavalry was that the former could be used as a separate combat unit, while the latter was only a member of the combat sequence in the combat campaign.

But this did not delay him from ordering the cavalry units to conduct wall training. This tactic is still very effective in the face of a frontal impact.

The cavalry units of the Fu Han Army were also equipped with flintlock muskets, but they generally did not use them much, unless it was when the three or five cavalry were fighting, which was an order from Chen Ming. The Qing army was different, no matter what the scale of the battle, they always had to pull the trigger, and then they would draw their sabers or raise their spears.

The gentle sound of horses' hooves did not feel weak at all, and the five columns of cavalry were lined up like small trees planted on both sides of the road.

The distance of a hundred paces passed quickly, and the distance between the two sides was sharply cut by half. The Qing army's horse team was scattered, and one by one the gunners held flintlock pistols, driving the war horses, and beating the horses to walk in the forefront.

The trumpeter beside Dong Wei blew out the forward trumpet, Dong Wei gently clamped the horse's belly, and the war horse, which had been with him for more than a year, jumped gently and began to accelerate.

The speed of the cavalry of the Fu Han Army is getting faster and faster, but the speed of the Eight Banners Horse Team is much slower, and they still have to take care of the muskets in their hands. The horses ran too fast, and the horses' backs were bumpy, which was not conducive to their aiming.

The five columns of the Fu Han army horse team can generally remain neat, but the distance between the soldiers in the same row has widened a little. The array did not cause a big riot because of the acceleration, and the training for half a year still had certain results.

The dense sound of hooves slowly converged into a rumbling sound, which was like fairy music in Dong Wei's ears. The frontal impact of the wall cavalry is still trustworthy.

The two sides were only less than 100 paces apart, and the Qing army on the opposite side fired the muskets in their hands. Dong Wei looked directly at his opponent, looking at the puffs of white smoke rising from the cavalry sequence opposite, without the slightest intention of dodging. There were voices of soldiers being injured in the queue, some people turned over and fell off their horses, and some horses fell in mourning, but compared to the total number of the Fu Han army, the casualties were very small.

The cavalry of the Qing army appeared in front of Dong Wei intact, the flintlock pistols were thrown to the ground by them, or stuffed back into the horse jackets, most of the weapons in their hands were spears and waist knives, and the speed of the war horses was also rapidly accelerating, and the array also began to be tightly organized. Of course, this strict order is only compared to their previous ones, and their speed is much inferior to the cavalry of the Fu Han Army, which has entered the peak state. The cavalry of the Eight Banners was more spaced apart, and the strength was not evenly distributed, and there were obviously squads on the two flanks as rear guards.

"Didi......tock" sounded the third time, and this time the trumpet sounded more urgently.

The speed of the Fu Han army's horses has increased to its peak, the rumbling hooves of the horses are like thunder in summer, and the red tassels on the bright helmets are beating, like countless flickering flames.

All the battle armor of the cavalry of the Fu Han Army is standard rattan iron armor, except for the cuirass weighing seven or eight catties, the other rattan leather strips weigh less than four catties together. All in all, it is much lighter than the cotton armor worn on the Eight Banners Horse Team.

Under the hurried running, the cavalry array of the Fu Han Army began to bend, but the distance was already very short, and this short bend was not enough to affect the rigor of the formation.

Dong Wei's face flushed. His eyes were wide open, and he clenched the flag gun with the red penangular flag in his hand, and the head of the spear was aimed at a horse soldier with eight banners opposite, who was also holding a spear and his face was full of fierceness.

He was finally a little flustered at this time. Because he had to face the attack of two spears. It's not just Dong Wei's shot. Although the trumpeter in Dong Wei's hand only pointed his spear slightly at the horseman.

There were still muskets fired in the Qing army's column, and three Fu Han soldiers fell off their horses in the first column. The distance is getting closer, and the lethality of the muskets in the hands of the Qing soldiers is soaring. Dong Wei didn't know the life and death of the three soldiers who fell off their horses, because the short distance was fleeting.

"Kill!!" The cavalry of the Fu Han army burst out with a roar of exhaustion.

"Boom!"

Two herds of horses, two torrents collided head-on. Countless broken gun barrels, accompanied by the continuous screams of people and horses, resounded in people's ears.

The sound of blades and guns clashing and rubbing against the hard iron of the armor made the roots of the teeth sore, and the bones of the horses that could not be avoided collided with each other shattered, and they fell to the ground and wailed. And the wails of our soldiers.

At the last moment, Dong Wei's mount disobediently deviated to the left, but he didn't let his spear deviate too much, he stared at the Eight Banners horseman, lowered his body, and staggered past in the roaring hooves. A shot pierced the man's abdomen!

Dong Wei was originally aimed at the man's chest. He threw away his spear and drew his sword. There were already a few more Qing cavalry in front of him. A cold light swept in front of his eyes, and Dong Wei just relied on his instinct to dodge, swinging his knife and splitting the oncoming spear. Then he felt a pain in his waist and legs, but he didn't have time to see if he was injured, he slashed at the left arm of a Eight Banner horseman, and he didn't have time to see the results of the battle, the war horse had already rushed out of the Qing army array with him, and there was no enemy in front of him.

The dense formation of the cavalry of the Fu Han army prevailed, and the first column of twenty lancers had at least six or seven enemies, and the saber behind the long spear was also slashed and wounded. But as the first column, they also paid a heavy price. There are only eight horsemen left!

Sixty percent of the fatalities. There is little chance that the soldiers who fall off their horses will survive. Not all of them died in cold weapon battles, and there were muskets before them, but they were the first in the row. And five of the remaining eight people were bleeding, such as Dong Wei himself.

It's just that the Qing army is not having a good time, passing the first row and the second row, and then the third row.

The fourth and fifth rows of the Fu Han army did not continue to do it, they instantly dispersed into two or three cavalry squads, and launched an attack on the Qing army's fish that slipped through the net, as well as the eight banner horsemen after the left and right flanks were trapped, they held sabers in their hands, and there were handcuffs in the horse jackets, mostly double-barreled handguns.

After three rounds of assault, only three or five of the twenty or thirty horsemen of the Qing army's front team remained. The death was worse than that of the Fu Han army.

In terms of frontal impact, the wall tactics are certainly stronger.

After dealing with the first column of lancers, they suffered greatly when they encountered the second column, and when they reached the third column they were almost powerless, and could not even avoid the horses to the right and left - it was too late. However, the damage of the cavalry of the second and third columns of the Fu Han army was much smaller than that of the first column.

The two squads left behind by the Qing army, one left and one right, went towards Dong Wei. But as soon as they fought, they fought again and left. It seems to be a swallow that picks up water, passing by gently, leaving only a little ripple.

"Head, the Tartar ran away!"

Dong Wei pressed the horse's head, turned his head to look behind him, and the wound on his waist hurt so much that he grinned. But looking at the Qing army horse team that stopped and ran straight ahead without stopping, he just wanted to laugh happily.

"Count the results!"

Dong Wei knew that he had won the battle this time. The corpses of the Eight Banners horsemen who fell on the ground, including those who were wounded but had not yet lost their lives, were all corpses, which were obviously much more casualties than the Fu Han army.

"Big cow, big cow is still alive......"

"The iron head is still alive, the medics, the medics, the medics, come on......"

The soldiers of the Fu Han Army who were checking the results of the battle came from time to time shouts of joy. The warriors who fell from their horses did not necessarily die. There is always luck, there is always luck.

"Captain."

"Forty-two tartars were cut in all. Thirty horses were seized. ”

"Our army lost twenty-two men and eleven horses. Seventeen people were wounded, ...... of them seriously"

The results were quickly counted. (To be continued.) )
