Chapter 170: Annihilation of Jiannu
Jiannu's Niu Lu Zhangjing tried to turn defeat into victory, gathered nearly 100 people, and hedged against Yang Tingjian, and the prime minister greeted them with a burst of five-eyed shots.
By the time Yang Tingjian finished shooting all the five-eyed guns they carried, at least ordinary Jiannu were killed on the ground, these Jiannu were really cruel, and in this case, they continued to charge.
Of course, Yang Tingjian was also fearless, and rushed to kill with his own guards, the screams of "ahhhhh
The Tiger Ben Army has the advantage of a plate armor station, Jiannu has the advantage of being battle-hardened, and Yang Tingjian has more people than Jiannu.
Seeing that the tiger spear in their hands could not pierce the armor on the tiger army's body, these Jian slaves flew from their horses to the body of the tiger army's guards, and then the two of them rolled off their horses together, and the result was that both of them fell half to death.
However, Jiannu's body is good, and the weight of the cotton armor on his body is also light, and the Jiannu who falls on the ground often has an advantage, at this time, the battlefield is fighting everywhere, and there are startled horses scurrying everywhere, and in the end, both of them are trampled to death by the scurrying war horses.
The plate armor on Yang Tingjian's body was completely stained red with blood, but he didn't dare to rest, because there were still dozens of Tartars desperately fighting with his men, and although his subordinates were wearing plate armor, they still had losses.
Fortunately, Yang Tingjian's Mo knife is sharp, and if he slashes down, it will be the end of all men and horses, but the greater the strength used, the easier it is for people to get tired, and when the two armies fight, the role of personal bravery will become less and less.
About thirty minutes later, when the last Jiannu was hacked to death, all the people were sweating profusely, and the two hundred and fifty-one tiger soldiers annihilated the Jiannu Zhenglan Banner and three hundred elite soldiers in one fell swoop, but Yang Tingjian's men also killed more than 20 people. More than 30 people were injured.
In this cavalry battle, Jiannu is really much stronger than the Ming army, Yang Tingjian and they have several advantages, the first is a surprise attack, and the second is that there is a super weapon like a five-eyed gun, and the result is still such a big casualty. Jiannu's toughness and ferocity really live up to his name.
With only 120,000 horses, Jiannu conquered Mongolia and Korea, and then captured the Ming Dynasty, which is by no means accidental, which is closely related to Jiannu's combat strength at this time. When Li Zicheng rebelled, he was coaxed, but he was beaten by tens of thousands of Jiannu, and finally died at the hands of the landlords.
The cavalry in the era of cold weapons is often the key to determining the outcome of a war, and the cavalry has a strong impact. Rapid mobility can completely determine the place, time, and scale of the battlefield, which is equivalent to completely grasping the initiative in the war. This is also why Yang Tingjian wanted to incorporate the Mongolian cavalry.
"My lord, we have won...... Thank you, sir. ”
Zhang San, who was covered in blood, panted and ran to Yang Tingjian, Yang Tingjian really had nothing to say about this Zhang San, killing the Tartars who came to rob was the responsibility of every Han person, does Yang Tingjian still need Zhang San to remind him?
"Zhang San. How many levels do you decapitate? ”
"Report to your lordship, Zhang San will be beheaded at the sixth level."
"Hmm...... Then reduce the two-level deliberation. Confinement is free. ”
"Thank you, sir...... Hehe......"
After Zhang San finished speaking, he smirked, this confinement is more uncomfortable than being in prison and being beaten with a military stick, an area of less than half a single bed, only a small doorway. The whole army of the Tiger Ben Army, no one wants to be locked up.
"Quick, quick. Collect the armor, banners, and heads of the Jiannu, and release the captured people...... Block. ”
The people who were released kowtowed to the Tiger Ben Army to thank them.
"Thank you, sir, for saving your life!!"
Yang Tingjian looked at these terrified compatriots, as well as the corpses everywhere. The heart is also dripping blood, the damned Tartar scourge is really not shallow, Yang Tingjian immediately shouted to the rescued people:
"Fellows, immediately pack up a little softness and go to Tongzhou with us...... Move a little faster. ”
Yang Tingjian didn't know if there were any Jiannu who had missed the net, the first level of the statistics just now was two hundred and eighty, and this one Niu Lu was three hundred, most of them were Jiannu who blocked the way out over there and had escaped.
Yang Tingjian's personal soldiers, he didn't dare to fight with the Tartars, it was not that Yang Tingjian was timid, but it was not cost-effective to consume his precious cavalry in this way, Yang Tingjian's killer weapon was the firearms troops, and the cavalry consumption with Jiannu was not the way Yang Tingjian wanted.
After Yang Tingjian finished cleaning up the battlefield, he was ready to set off, when Yang Tingjian saw those crying people, he couldn't bear it, this Jiannu had already attacked Xianghe County, and it was more than a hundred miles away from here, if Yang Tingjian didn't protect these people, most of them would be chased and slaughtered by the successor slaves.
"Pass my order, let's protect these people to Tongzhou together!"
"What if I am caught up by Jiannu's army?"
This is a difficult problem, Yang Tingjian thought about it for a while and said to Zhang San:
"Zhang San, are you kid scared, aren't you very capable? Why is it cowardly now. ”
Zhang San was not convinced, and immediately defended:
"My lord, I'm afraid that the Jiannu army will catch up, and we still have to protect these people, so there is no way to fight a decisive battle with the Jiannu brigade! Besides, if adults have three long and two short, Zhang San can't afford to be guilty. ”
"Bah...... What is Lao Tzu has three long and two short, and the tartar that can kill Lao Tzu has not yet been born. ”
"Ah......h Fortunately, Yang Tingjian was not angry.
"You immediately ride to Tongzhou, and I will write you a warrant to send the cavalry division to reinforcements."
After Yang Tingjian finished speaking, he turned over and dismounted, and one of his personal guards hurriedly untied the burden on his back, revealing pen, ink, paper, and inkstone. There was no desk here, and the guard crouched directly on the ground, arching his back. Yang Tingjian picked up a pen and wrote a warrant, and then stamped the military seal of the Tiger Ben Army that he carried with him.
"Zhang San, at this time, the relationship is serious, this officer is sending five sergeants to accompany you, you must complete the task in accordance with the law."
"Guaranteed to get the job done."
……
"Go ahead!"
Zhang San turned around and left, Yang Tingjian was really about to step on his war horse once, and suddenly an old man with gray hair hurriedly came to Yang Tingjian, bowed his head:
"Your Excellency! The villain is the local mayor, and the villain thanks the adults for saving the local folks. ”
After the old man finished speaking, he kowtowed, and Yang Tingjian hurriedly stepped forward to help the old man up, and said:
"We are the Jinyi Guardian Tiger Army, the emperor's pro-army, and it is the duty of our Tiger Army to kill the Tartars who came to loot, and the old man doesn't have to be like this."
The old man still didn't want to get up, and continued: (To be continued......)
