Chapter 220: Female Cavalry
Li Jun naturally smiled, there were not enough cavalry of two thousand cavalry on the other side, and even the gunners of the first royal division did not take them seriously.
In the eyes of the gunners, there is only a 100-step line of death.
More than a thousand cavalrymen, in front of 9,000 gunners, could not even turn up a wave, like a bag of earth thrown at the mouth of a river where the embankment was dug, and as soon as the bag was thrown, it was washed away by the flowing water.
But the Buyeo cavalry, in the last moments of death, sounded their horns.
What the horn represents, the Ming army does not understand, but the Buyeo people can understand it.
In the Buyeo tribe, a group of cavalry suddenly rushed out, this cavalry has thousands of people, the momentum of the impact is no less than their main force, in the right front of the Ming army, the main force of the Buyeo cavalry that is fighting fiercely with Mangui, also divided a cavalry, came to respond.
The cavalry in the Buyeo tribe, because of the relatively close distance, rushed in front of the Ming army in the blink of an eye.
"Do they still have cavalry, hiding among the tribes?" Li Jun was very puzzled, but it was difficult for the cavalry of thousands of people to break through the position formed by the gunners!
"Master, they are all children!"
"Kid?" Li Jun looked carefully, and sure enough, it was a group of half-grown children, but they all held the scimitar, and the impact posture was similar to that of adults, no wonder he didn't see it just now.
"Master, what should I do? To fight or not to fight? ”
"Whoever stands in our way is an enemy! All enemies with scimitars must be destroyed! Li Jun's voice was a little cold, "Prepare to shoot, those who violate the order will be killed!" ”
"Yes, Master!" The herald quickly transmitted Li Jun's order to each of the gunners.
The children's army of Buyeo, in addition to being short and thin, their horse control skills are no worse than that of adults, and the sound of horses' hooves is wrapped in the cold wind on the bank of the Daling River, rushing towards the Ming army.
"Shoot." Li Jun was worried that the soldiers had compassion for the child army of Buyeo, and after they came within range of the flintlock pistol, Guo gave the order loudly.
The flintlock pistols again fired countless bullets, like locusts, concentrated in front of the Buyeo Children's Army.
The children's army of Buyeo, one by one, fell out from the galloping war horses, and the shooting of the gunners in the first row knocked down at least 500 children's troops.
The Buyeo Children's Army, worthy of being the descendants of the Mongols, fell in front, did not stop in the slightest, did not slow down in the slightest, they stepped on the corpses of their companions, like adults, with scimitars in their hands, and continued to pounce on the Ming army.
Li Jundu felt that it was a pity that these future cavalrymen did not serve the Ming Dynasty.
They are still the enemies of the Ming Dynasty, and Li Jun will never be soft on the enemies of the Ming Dynasty, especially after he became Zhu Youzhen's personal soldier.
Before the main cavalry of Buyeo arrived, these Buyeo children's troops had all fallen from their horses.
Li Jun looked at the Buyeo cavalry who rushed over from the right front, they were less than a thousand steps away from the gunners of the Ming army, and it seemed that it was too late to clean up the battlefield.
"Get ready, the Buyeo people will rush over immediately!"
A distance of a thousand paces, in the eyes of the cavalry, was just a sneeze, and the Buyeo cavalry launched a new wave of attacks in an instant.
There were only 3,000 cavalrymen, and the gunners directly regarded them as dead.
However, this time, the Ming army miscalculated, and after the Buyeo cavalry lost nearly two thousand people, they did not continue the attack, but withdrew from the range of the flintlock muskets.
"Buyeongyu people have also learned to behave?" Li Jun sneered, the prey was in front of him, how could he let it go? "Slow forward, squeeze through, ready to shoot."
The Royal First Division was about to advance, and there was a cavalryman behind him, galloping over, and he jumped far off his horse.
"Division Commander Li, there is an order from the military seat, the first division will withdraw and rest, and the third division will attack!"
Li Jun still wants to fight again, and the current Buyeo cavalry is like a flower child who has been hungry for three days, and he may fall down if he touches it lightly.
He glanced at the soldiers, who were still in good spirits, and didn't look like they needed to rest at all.
"Is it really an order from the military seat?"
"Senior Commander Li, is the military order child's play? How many heads do I have that dare to give military orders without authorization? ”
Li Jun looked at the rear army, Wang Mujiu stood at the front of the rear army like a pine and cypress, "It's probably that the military seat is about to train again." ”
Li Jun was very unwilling, but the military order was like a mountain, he still slowly withdrew the army and let Zhang Lu's royal third division come up.
Zhang Lu passed by Li Jun's side, and he smiled at Li Jun: "Dude, you eat meat, you have to let me drink soup, right?"
"Zhang Lu, is it your report to the military seat?"
Zhang Lu hurriedly waved his hand: "Dude, you have wronged me, don't you know, the military seat has been taking turns to train the soldiers?" It didn't work out before the battle was over, and the second division came up. ”
Li Jun was silent, he slowly retreated behind the third division, "Dude, be careful, prevent the Buyeo cavalry, the fish will die and the net will break!" ”
"Got it!" Zhang Lu promised, his body had already crossed Li Jun.
More than 1,000 Buyeo cavalry, like frosted eggplants, silently watched the Ming army exchanging attacking troops, not knowing what they were thinking.
Zhang Lu didn't give them much time, he followed Li Jun's example, and let the soldiers advance slowly, the soldiers' hands were pressed on the flintlock pistol, and they could pull the trigger at any time.
The Ming army bent their legs and bowed their waists, and they slowly advanced while avoiding the corpses of the Buyeo cavalry.
The Buyeo cavalry on the opposite side was still sitting on horses, and all the cavalry were immovable.
A leader-like Fuyu cavalry cavalryman glanced back at the troops behind him, with a resolute look on his face, it seemed that he was ready to fight the Ming army to the end.
A Buyeo soldier, whose belly was swept by the tail of a neighboring war horse, was taken aback, and fell from the horse's back, but he didn't care to get on the horse, but grabbed the scimitar that fell to the ground, held it in both hands, and fell to his knees.
"Could it be that the Buyeo people are going to surrender?" Zhang Lu smiled: "If you really want to surrender, you can spare your life, just to repair the cement road in Liaodong for us." ”
The leader of the Buyeo cavalry turned his horse's head and walked slowly towards the soldier who was kneeling on the ground, and when the horse came to the soldier's side, he raised his scimitar sharply and slashed at the soldier on the ground.
The scimitar slashed at the back of the soldier's neck, severing even the vertebrae, and blood rushed into the sky......
The soldier kneeling on the ground, his head still hanging around his neck, did not make a sound, slowly tilted to the right side of his body, and then collapsed to the ground.
"Damn, you are looking for death, don't blame Lao Tzu for being ruthless!" Zhang Lu was furious and couldn't help but scold, "Brothers, prepare to shoot!" ”
His last sentence was completely superfluous, the gunners of the Ming army had been prepared for a long time, they were just waiting to enter the effective range of the flintlock pistol.
The leader of the Buyeo cavalry, who didn't know what to say to his soldiers, suddenly became energetic, raised the scimitars in their hands one by one, urged the war horses under the seats, and pounced on the gunners of the Ming army.
"Damn, let's die early, we don't have to walk there!" Zhang Lu smiled gloomily, and he ordered the soldiers to stop, raising their guns and waiting for the Buyeo cavalry.
"Bang."
"Bang."
"Bang."
……
The leader of the Buyeo cavalry, rushing to the front of the cavalry, fell off his horse early in the first wave of shooting, and I don't know if he was dead.
Zhang Lu was angry in his heart, and he didn't care whether the remaining Buyeo cavalry showed signs of surrender, "Beat them hard until they all fell off their horses." ”
The ferocity of the Mongols is not blown, only a thousand cavalry, can stir up a rolling wave.
But on the opposite side of them was the flintlock pistol of the Ming army, like the tide hitting the mountain, the mountain stood still, and the tide was smashed to pieces.
Before the gunners could finish firing, all the Buyeo cavalry had already fallen from their horses.
Zhang Lu glanced around from a distance, and there was no Buyeo cavalry nearby, "The left wing cavalry dismounted, cleaned the battlefield, and cleaned up the wounded." ”
In front of Zhang Lu's left, Mangui's Seventh Army was fighting fiercely with the main cavalry of Fuyu.
Although the number of Man Gui is large, but the Buyeo people want to protect their subordinates, they are all fighting to the death and not retreating, Man Gui has no good way, although he has the advantage, but he can't take the opponent, and the battle situation is in a stalemate.
However, Li Jun shot and killed more than two or three thousand cavalry left behind by the Buyeo people, and their troops completely lost the protection of the cavalry, so as a last resort, the Buyeo people withdrew three thousand cavalry from the battlefield and rushed to protect their men.
In this way, the balance of the battlefield was broken in an instant, and the Buyeo cavalry, which had barely relied on their will to block Mangui, was suddenly broken by Mangui, and the Buyeo cavalry was in chaos.
The Buyeo cavalry fought and retreated, but Mangui relied on the advantage of numbers and pursued the Buyeo people.
The Buyeo cavalry did not dare to flee at all, it was a saber that left the back to the Ming army, but the Ming army was a frontal attack, they were defeated on the side, their bodies were awkward, and they were killed all over the field by the Ming army.
The Buyeo people still did not flee for the sake of their subordinates, but they did not know what the practical significance of resisting for a moment longer would be to their subordinates.
In fact, their subordinates now have no way to escape, and Zhang Lu's royal third division has been keeping an eye on the old and weak women of the Buyeo people, as well as their belongings.
Zhang Lu approached the Buyeo people step by step, but the Buyeo people didn't know where to flee, behind them was the cold and biting Daling River, and on the left and right, there were cavalry of the Royal Second Division.
Not only the cavalry of the Second Royal Division, but also the cavalry of the First Royal Division behind Wang Peng were also ready, and if the Buyeo people wanted to escape, they would not hesitate to make up for it and block their escape route.
Just like a shepherd driving a flock of sheep, Zhang Lu's infantry has approached the tribe of the Buyeo tribe, and he is already thinking about how many sheep and horses there are in the Buyeo tribe.
"Da Da Da ......"
The sound of dense horses' hooves sounded from the Buyeo tribe again.
Zhang Lu looked up and saw from afar, a cavalry suddenly rushed out from the Buyeo tribe.
"Damn, how can the Buyeo cavalry not be killed? Could it be that they are really soldiers for all people, even the elderly and children are soldiers? ”
"Master, they are all women."
"Women?" Zhang Lu was puzzled, "What is the woman doing on horseback?" Are they going to surrender? ”
"Division, they don't look like they're going to surrender, Division, please look, they're all holding scimitars, exactly like their cavalry."
"Hey, really!" Wang Peng sneered, "It's really a nation that doesn't know whether to live or die." ”
"Master, what should I do?"
"What to do? Didn't Majesty teach you? On Zhang Lu's handsome face, there was a hint of cruelty, "Anyone who stands in our way is an enemy!" All enemies with scimitars must be destroyed! ”
"Master, but they are all women!"
"What woman? On the battlefield, there are only the enemies of the Ming Dynasty. Wang Peng touched his chin lightly, "It's a pity, many soldiers in the Royal Third Division are still singles!" ”
