Chapter 219: Heavy casualties
Le Yichuan and Ge Long's martial arts are also good, the two cooperate with each other, and neither Jiannu is the opponent of the two of them, the two of them are covered with the blood of Jiannu, but the two of them are unharmed, the two of them are warriors and heroes in battle.
But the two of them have another identity, that is, the two of them are the commanders of the cavalry division, they can not take the lead in the charge, but commanding the battle is their greatest responsibility, but these two fools only care about rushing to kill with their cavalry, and other factors are not considered at all.
The whole battlefield shouted and killed in the sky, the "bang" sound of the five-eyed gun shot was breathtaking, the sorrowful sound of the war horse resounded, everywhere were fast galloping war horses, everywhere swords and swords, life was fleeting at this moment, whether it was the tiger army or the Jiannu, everywhere were trampled corpses beyond recognition.
Both sides are fighting with all their might, not caring about each other's casualties, this is all counted after the war, and now sending the enemy to hell is the main thing, both sides think so.
Soon all the cavalry on both sides killed through the opponent's formation, Le Yichuan was in front of Huang Taiji's dense anti-cavalry formation, even if Le Yichuan was stunned, he would not use the cavalry to collide with Huang Taiji's perfect anti-cavalry dense formation, so he could only immediately turn the horse's head and prepare to hedge with Ao Bai behind him for the second time.
When Le Yichuan and Ge Long turned their horses' heads to see the battlefield behind them clearly, the two of them almost cried, the corpses on the ground were five or six thousand gigantics, and most of them were the corpses of the Tiger Ben Army wearing plate armor.
Le Yichuan was already crying:
"Oh my God!! How so!! …… O my brothers! Why aren't you Jiannu's opponents? …… Woowoo...... I cāo your dog Jiannu's immortal board ......"
Gelong, the five big and three rough fools, didn't cry, but a hedge killed thousands of cavalry, this is indeed a heartbreaking thing, Gelong is extremely confident in his subordinates, how can such a situation occur, Gelong doesn't know. In fact, the vast majority of the corpses of those tiger soldiers were Han cavalry, and Ge Long couldn't see it.
And Jiannu on the opposite side, at this time, had already reorganized the formation again, and began to charge again, Le Yichuan and Gelong, the two fools. It is not up to us to command a war, but the courage of this battle is unquestionable.
Le Yichuan and Ge Long raised the weapons in their hands and shouted loudly behind them:
"Brothers...... Kill Jiannu with me...... Avenge the death of your brother...... Kill ......"
The sound of horses' hooves resounded in the sky in an instant, and in an instant, the two teams of cavalry collided together, and the cavalry in the front row was a "bang" of people turning over on their horses, followed by a bloody slash.
This time the hedge, the table of the tiger army was much better, because the infantry on the war horses ...... The Han cavalry of the Tiger Ben Army is almost dead, and that is more than 3,000 Han cavalry! Most of it was buried in this way.
Le Yichuan and Gelong, two idiots. Why don't you know that you're charging after reloading all the five-eyed guns! More than 3,000 five-eyed guns, that's nearly 20,000 rounds of ammunition, even if Ao Bai has 15,000 elite cavalry in his hands, with these more than 3,000 five-eyed guns, he will kill half of Jiannu, and the next battle will be much easier.
There are no ifs in war, and once you make a wrong decision, you can't regret it.
The fighting on the battlefield was tragic and unusual. Now it has almost become a life-and-death duel between the armed Mongolian cavalry and the elite Jiannu, and the battle is fought in the dark. The sun and moon were dark, and the corpses on the ground were even denser.
……
After Yang Tingjian sent the cavalry division out to pursue, he felt a sudden pain in his heart like a knife, this pain came and went quickly, Yang Tingjian didn't care at all. It is impossible for this defeated Jiannu to pose any threat to himself.
This battle was fought very smoothly, not only Yang Tingjian's mood was very good, even all the infantry of the Tiger Ben Army were also in high morale, and everyone walked in unison to the sound of drums. Yang Tingjian was not distracted by victory in the end, he did not let his infantry phalanx throw off his arms and pursue the fleeing enemy, but maintained the formation and slowly pursued.
This maintains the formation and pursues slowly, the speed is definitely not fast, and Yang Tingjian does not need to be fast, Yingzhou is only more than twenty miles away at this time, and he will definitely be able to reach it before dark this afternoon.
Suddenly, the walkie-talkie next to Yang Tingjian reported loudly:
"My lord, the cavalry division has already pursued Shangjiannu, and they are really preparing to rush and kill."
"Well, got it, let them go and fight! If Jiannu resists stubbornly, hang it far away! It is better to force Jiannu into Yingzhou City. ”
Yang Tingjian's order, the original intention was just not to let his cavalry lose too much, because the Tiger Ben army is a firearms army, and the cavalry is only used to hunt down and kill the completely collapsed enemy, the battle just now, because Huang Taiji withdrew from the battle in time, the loss of Jiannu was not too large, and more than 5,000 Jiannu were annihilated, and Huang Taiji still had more than 15,000 cavalry in his hands, so Yang Tingjian was unwilling to let his cavalry fight to the death with Jiannu who did not collapse.
It was precisely because of Yang Tingjian's order that his cavalry division was saved by mistake and that they did not die to the end.
After a while, the walkie-talkie soldier reported eagerly:
"My lord, the Jiannu cavalry has begun to counterattack."
This situation was a bit sudden, I didn't expect that the little turtle Emperor Taiji actually had the courage to fight back, since Jiannu began to fight back, Yang Tingjian immediately ordered:
"Order the whole army to accelerate its advance while maintaining the formation."
This is a distance of fifteen miles, the infantry in the formation of the situation, walking four or five miles per hour, Yang Tingjian's infantry to the battlefield, at least three hours, from the morning to now, all the soldiers have participated in a certain distance of battle, fatigue is certain, and now it is twelve o'clock at noon, Yang Tingjian can not let his soldiers go hungry to participate in the battle.
The logistics of the Tiger Ben Army have done a good job, each soldier has three days of dry food on his body, and a leather water bag, and now the military situation is urgent, so he can only eat some dry food while hurrying. The heaviest task is still the dozen or so staff officers who command the formation, they have already shouted to the fullest, this is also a matter of no choice, the large array of tens of thousands of people moves, and there are more places that need to be commanded.
The strict training of the Tiger Ben Army in peacetime is now reflected, when the large array moves forward, although there are all kinds of small problems, but under the command of the staff officer, it can still be basically kept intact, not to mention that there are countless nights around the big array, if there is an enemy to sneak attack, Yang Tingjian has enough time to adjust and perfect the formation.
