Chapter 1125: Guanning Iron Cavalry
readx; Amin has been in an extremely irritable mood these days. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
For the rebellious behavior of the six relatives of "noble righteousness", Amin was furious, and finally lost his patience, and was about to attack Luanzhou in person, but suddenly received an urgent report from Qian'an.
Amin was shocked when he heard the news, because Qian'an controlled the retreat of the Qing army, and once the retreat was cut off, the situation of the white flag would be precarious. Therefore, he couldn't care about fighting Luanzhou, and immediately ordered the whole army to pull out, so as to meet the Ming army under the city of Luanzhou.
Helplessly, Jin Tongwu gave the Qing army's war horses a lot of medicine, and several days have passed, and there are still many war horses of the Qing army that have not slowed down. The main cavalry with the white flag was originally 15,000 horsemen, but now there are only 10,000 healthy war horses left, and the combat effectiveness is greatly reduced.
The town is less than twenty miles away from Qian'an City, and the huge roar of the Ming army's Yuanrong artillery fire can be heard clearly even here. Amin was so anxious that he led the generals Niyaha, Kazhu and others to hurry north. But as soon as he walked halfway, he ran head-on into Zhu Changzuo and others who were defeated from Qian'an, and then he knew that Qian'an City had been lost, and he was like being struck by lightning.
Zhu Changzuo saw Amin staring at him fiercely with blood-red eyes, and while his soul was scattered, he was desperately trying to find an excuse to excuse himself. He added fuel and vinegar and said: "The Ming army's Hongyi cannons are no less than 100, and they will knock down more than ten zhang of the city wall with one shot, and the minions can't hold it even if they want to!" ”
Hearing this, Niyaha was furious and said, "Nonsense! A Hongyi cannon is thousands of catties, is the Ming army a god who can turn so many cannons around? It is clear that you are greedy for life and afraid of death, and you dare not fight with the Ming army, which led to the loss of Qian'an, master, kill this dog slave first! ”
As he spoke, he raised his saber to cut Zhu Changzuo. Amin was reluctant to let him be the "bookkeeper", and said in a hoarse voice: "The city has been lost, and it is useless to kill him!" Zhu Changzuo, give you a chance to make up for your mistakes, immediately return to attack the city, if you dare to patrol and avoid the battle again, this king will kill you with his own hands! ”
Zhu Changzuo had no choice but to change the rear team into the front team, and led the army with white flags to kill back. With his master in the back, this guy was a lot more courageous, and he began to shout again. However, after the battle just now, he already knew that the artillery of the Ming army could be bombarded as far as three miles away, so there were still five miles away from Qian'an City, so he slowed down his speed, for fear that the Ming army would smash him into a meatloaf with one shot.
However, to the surprise of the Qing army, another cavalry team appeared in the east of Qian'an City. This team did not have many troops, only about 500 horsemen, and the speed was not fast, it could only be regarded as a trot, but it drove straight towards the vanguard of the Qing army.
At first, Zhu Changzuo thought that this was also the Qing army that came from Yongping, but when the other party got closer and closer, he could tell that it was the Ming army's troops from the clothing. While he was surprised, he also had some joy in his heart. Because unlike the first battle just now, this Ming army is all cavalry, and there are not many troops. If he can eat this Ming army in one bite, it will be regarded as a meritorious service, and it will be easy for his master to make a difference.
So he immediately raised his saber and shouted murderously: "Charge me, first release the arrows and then surround them in close combat, and kill them all without leaving one!" ”
Zhu Changzuo originally had 2,000 men and horses under his command, plus some of the Han army banner soldiers in the town of Youzhu, the total strength reached 3,000, so these soldiers didn't take the 500 Ming troops on the opposite side in their eyes, and rushed forward in a swarm. When the two sides were about 100 paces apart, the Qing cavalry began to fire arrows on their horses. Although their archery skills were far worse than the authentic Eight Banners cavalry, the three thousand cavalry released arrows together, still weaving a dense network of arrows, and headed towards the Ming army.
Unexpectedly, the Ming army did not dodge, did not fight back, and did not even make a move to shoot arrows, but still continued to rush forward. Seeing these thousands of iron arrows shot into the Ming army's formation, Zhu Changzuo was overjoyed, thinking that this must not kill more than half of the other party?
But before he could close his mouth, Zhu Changzuo was terrified to find that the Ming army had not been hit by an arrow, and still maintained a complete formation and continued to rush forward! At this time, they were not trotting, but all the war horses let go of their hooves and galloped wildly, like a black and oppressive iron wall, and they slapped over the mountains and seas!
In the flash of light, the cavalry of the two armies collided fiercely. At this time, the Qing army understood why the other party was not afraid of bows and arrows, because they were wearing heavy armor even with men and horses. But now it was too late to know this, the Ming cavalry picked up a mace weighing dozens of catties, first used the first of the "three ways to engage the enemy" "force split Huashan", and smashed down the enemy's head.
The Qing soldiers were busy raising the saber frame, but how could the fluttering saber withstand the powerful mace? As soon as the weapons of both sides were knocked on, the sabers were immediately knocked off, or even smashed in two. At this time, the cavalry of the Ming army took advantage of the situation to use the second type of "oblique flying into the clouds", and the mace came back diagonally from the bottom to the top, and the enemy was dismounted with a stick!
At the forefront of the five hundred cavalry were two generals armed with iron spears. The two iron spears weighing dozens of catties were like two black dragons flipping up and down in their palms, and all the Qing soldiers who looked at them didn't even have time to raise their knives, so they were picked off their horses with a shot. When they got to the point of killing, these two generals also swept up with spears as sticks, and they knocked down a piece of the enemy with one pump!
At the same time, the 500 heavily armored cavalry behind them, like these two generals, used the third of the three ways to "sweep away a thousand troops". At this time, the men and horses of the two sides were already fighting together, and the sabers of the Qing army were both one-handed and not long enough, but they suffered a big loss. The mace of the Ming army was a large piece, and the Qing soldiers wanted to fight back, but they couldn't reach others at all, so that the Ming army killed a falling flower.
In less than a cup of tea, these 500 heavy-armored cavalry had already given Zhu Changzuo's vanguard a "big disembowelment" and chiseled through the middle. Immediately flicked the horse's head, and chiseled back in the direction of Qian'an City, it was like entering a no-man's land.
At the same time, Amin also led the main force with the white flag to catch up from behind. As soon as he saw these cavalrymen wearing dark colored heavy armor, he gasped and said, "It's Guan Ning Iron Cavalry!" ”
