Chapter 129: Decisive Battle II

Shen Jia took the opportunity to quietly launch the assault car and called Wen Qing, Qu Xiaojia and Liu Wencai. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

"This time the loss is big, if you can't get it, I have to take my life, Shen Jia, this is what you owe me, if I can survive, I must ask you for it."

Qu Xiaojia and Liu Wencai hid aside and snickered.

Shen Jia glanced back at Wen Qing, and his face was suddenly full of apologies. Shen Jia said: "Senior sister, let's have a little confidence, others may not survive, but everyone in the chariot, there will be absolutely no problem, you don't believe me, but you have to believe in this car, don't you say?" ”

Wen Qing turned her head to ignore Shen Jia and continued to look around in the car. Although the paratrooper chariot was observed in the city for more than ten days, it was a different matter on the battlefield. Wen Qing came over today, just to practice driving the assault car with Shen Jia again.

The Houjin army stopped at a distance of about three hundred meters. After the display of majesty, Dai Shan felt that the Ming army seemed to have lost his heart, so he sent an envoy to try to recruit the Ming army. One moment, Zhang Shixian was still worried about how to provoke Coach Houjin, and the next moment, the Houjin envoy actually sent it to the door in person. Zhang Shi was overjoyed and immediately shot an arrow, and when Ambassador Houjin walked to the front of the battle, he suddenly encountered a cold arrow, and he fell to the ground with a whimper.

Dai Shan was angered by the arrogance and unreasonableness of the commander of the Ming army, and while scolding the barbarism of the Ming army, he ordered an attack. The Eight Banners Army moved again, and the heavy cavalry in the center was layered on top of each other, followed by the infantry of the Eight Banners Army, mainly with swords, shields, spears and archers. As the horn sounded, the front line composed of the Houjin cavalry rolled towards the front of the Ming army like a tumbling wave.

The plan went according to expectations, and Zhang Shi inadvertently showed a rare smile. The Eight Banners Army launched a charge, and the Ming army's reaction was a little stiff, but it was still methodically adjusted and prepared. Soon, the Ming army gave way to a no-man's land several meters wide in the center, and then a huge ironclad car rumbled to the front of the formation. The monsters in the array bared their fangs, and the Ming army behind them couldn't help but cheer loudly, turning a blind eye to the impending danger.

The attentive Eight Banners cavalry spotted the paratrooper chariot for the first time, and most of them had seen the power of this chariot. Now that it had reappeared in front of the formation, the Eight Banners cavalry was suddenly startled and couldn't help but slow down their march. The invisible fear of the Houjin cavalry made a huge mistake. Their infantry caught up and clinged to the cavalry. The infantry's vision was obscured by the cavalry, and it was difficult to see the movement in front of them. Houjin's cavalry and infantry joined together to form a wide offensive fan, with a dense flow of people, and the front line was full of confusion and unease, while the flow of people following behind the line was full of excitement and desire for victory.

Daizen's vision was obscured by the attacking cavalry, and he couldn't understand why the attack had slowed down. Dai Shan urgently ordered the drums to be beaten, and the horn was blown again, and Dai Shan sent elite red pacesetters to strictly urge the front line to speed up.

It turns out that one trick is bitten by a snake, and the situation of ten years of fear of the well rope exists. When the paratrooper chariot fired more than a dozen incendiary grenades at the dense flow of people, the world immediately fell into chaos. The banner was hung with flying flames, which burned to ashes in an instant. The cavalry was hit by the flying flames, which in turn caused the whole body to burn. In the midst of the terrible cries, many Eight Banners cavalry fell off their horses. The cavalry that followed closely swarmed and trampled in turn. Cavalry charging at high speed cannot control their speed, especially if they are followed by a large number of companions.

The fire caused by the incendiary grenade was fierce and ferocious. The flames bounced to the ground and splattered into the air, threatening to burn all over the body as soon as they were touched. The flames in some of the clearings burned in an instant, as if they were about to burn up the grease of the earth. The charging Eight Banners Army looked at the terrifying scene, and their hearts were full of despair and fear.

The Eight Banners front line fell into madness, they had no way to retreat, there was no way to escape, and the attacking soldiers could only bite the bullet and continue to move forward. The sorrowful roar of the war horses and the screams of their companions resounded in their ears, and fear began to spread widely, and the Eight Banners Army was full of anxiety and uneasiness. With the opening of machine gun fire dozens of meters away, a large crowd was swept by the wielding sickle like a wave of wheat, and fell in front of the Ming army in an instant. It only took tens of seconds for the Ming army to slaughter the front line of the Eight Banners Army into an empty and wide death zone.

The sound of horns and rapid drums continued to urge, and waves of bloodthirsty Eight Banners went against the trend, trying to regain their glory with blood and bravery. The machine guns burst out suddenly, mercilessly strafing, and the soldiers of the Eight Banners, who were still alive a few seconds ago, were instantly packed by the dense firepower and sent to hell en masse. There was a strong smell of blood in the air, accompanied by a strong smell of burnt corpses, and the Houjin soldiers were disgusted. They endured their discomfort through the burning fire and rushed into battle, only to enter a feast of death. The blood was surging into the sky, the sound of killing was bursting, and no one's war horses were running, while more war horses, as well as their owners, remained in this black death zone forever.

The Houjin cavalry, which had escaped from the front, went around to the flanks of the Ming army and tried to recapture a city. The Ming army's unconscionable cannon fired, and it was constantly bombarding the dense cavalry, and the sound was so loud that it was shocking to hear.

"Hurry up and fire the cannon, Jiannu rushed up, and they all nailed me here." Zeng Shi roared, the predecessor of the Fourth Battalion, the Fourth Company, has always been famous for fighting tough battles, but as the war progressed, the Fourth Battalion just quietly fished a few small battles, Zeng Shi complained about this. Fortunately, today Shen Jia put the fourth battalion in the most critical left flank defensive position, which made Zeng Shi overjoyed.

The soldiers of the fourth battalion were well-trained in bomb throwing, and every time the cavalry rushed over, they would always encounter a few grenades on the way out, tossing back and forth, and the Houjin cavalry suffered great losses. However, the Ming army was not much better, and under the intensive fire of bows and arrows, the Ming troops on both wings suffered many casualties, and most of these people were recruits recruited by He Shixian. The casualty rate on the van was the highest, and if it weren't for the fire support provided by grenades, the Houjin cavalry even rushed directly into the formation on several occasions.

Once the initial opportunity is missed, all that remains is endless regret. The generals of the Eight Banners never thought that this was the last glory of the 20,000 army of the Eight Banners. Blood turned the soil beneath their feet into muddy swamps, and the warrior's fighting spirit was worn out by the enemy's butcher's knife.

Dai Shan, who was in the distance, finally saw the changes in front of the battle, he was speechless and angry with God, shouted "God won't help me!", and then pulled his horse and fled backwards. The banner of Daishan was then lowered, and the soldiers tried to cover the identity of the commander. Dai Shan did not object, his face was full of iron, he didn't say a word, and hurriedly fled to the side.

The morale of the Eight Banners Army was dealt a fatal blow. Although the Eight Banners warriors fought bravely, they were never able to tear apart the frontal defense of the Ming army. The monster that spewed flames used the blood and corpses of the Jurchens to build hundreds of meters of undulating corpse mounds. The soldiers of the Eight Banners were panicked, their eyes showed a thick fear and despair, no one wanted to die in vain, they all turned their eyes to the commander behind them.

The banner of Daishan disappeared, which became the last straw that crushed the morale of the Eight Banners. Initially a small force of the Eight Banners Infantry fled, and soon the panic shrouded in this defeat spread throughout the army. Leaving the battlefield quickly became the thought of all the soldiers of the Eight Banners, and the flow of people fleeing became bigger and bigger, there were no generals and soldiers, no minions and masters, no poor and rich, only life and death, victory and defeat, and the flow of people who were panicked. The Eight Banners cavalry took advantage of their mobility to decisively abandon the siege of the two flanks of the Ming army, and instead quickly fled backwards. Wails and cries resounded through the heavens and the earth.

Realizing that the situation on the battlefield had changed dramatically, Zhang Shi organized the Ming army to pursue decisively. The paratrooper chariot took the lead, crushing the corpses at high speed towards the flow of people. It was followed by the cavalry of the Ming army and the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd battalions on horseback.

The rout rushed to the position where Huang Taiji was, and the rear army of the Great Khan was torn apart. At first, Huang Taiji tried to block the rout from attacking the rear army formation with military orders and bloody massacres, but he soon realized that this was useless in the face of a frantic crowd. As several incendiary grenades hit the rear troops, huge flames rose from the formation, splashing and burning in all directions. People who didn't have time to flee rolled underground, trying to extinguish the flames, but it quickly became a luxury, and the flames jumped and burned in all directions, never dying.

The stunned Eight Banners had no time to react, and they were stunned for a few seconds, until the Emperor Taiji Banner in the center was brought down, triggering a new round of escape. Someone in the rear army shouted: "The Great Khan is gone, the Eight Banners Army is defeated, everyone flee for their lives!" ”

The shouts of escape inspired the will of the Eight Banners Army to survive, and people threw away their weapons and fled backwards as fast as they could. The torrent of escape gathered more and more, and the flames of the incendiary grenades could no longer stop the crowd trying to survive. Shen Jia and Wen Qing looked at this scene blankly, originally thinking that there would be a hard battle today, but who knew that the Eight Banners Army defeated themselves by themselves.

Shen Jia stopped the paratrooper chariot and handed it to Wen Qing to drive. This is an opportunity, with himself on the side to be responsible for observing and guiding Wen Qing to drive on the battlefield in person, it is far better than Wen Qing pondering by herself. Under the leadership of Zhang Shi of the Ming army, the whole army turned to an offensive state and rushed towards the hill where the Houjin army was stationed five miles away.

There were deserters all over the mountains, and sure enough, he responded to the sentence, "It's 100,000 pigs, and the communist army can't catch them all in three days." Shen Jia asked Qu Xiaojia to get out of the armored car and shouted at Zhang Shi with a loudspeaker. Fortunately, Zhang Shier listened to all directions, and after a simple sum of the two, the attack unit composed of 1,000 cavalry and the first and second battalions continued to advance, while the other battalions were under the unified command of Zeng Shi, and captured prisoners all over the mountains.

Twenty minutes later, the Ming army arrived near the hill. The Eight Banners Army had completely abandoned the battalion, and they had withdrawn in the direction of Sarhu. There were not many enemy troops on the hill, Shen Jia couldn't wait to shoot a few incendiary grenades, and a thousand cavalry rushed towards the hill with a roar. The 1st and 2nd Battalions followed the assault vehicles and continued to search and advance up the hill. Halfway through the line, Liu Wu came over to report that there were several trenches in front of him, Wen Qing slowed down the car, and when he arrived, he found that it was only a fire ditch more than one meter wide.

The chain paratrooper chariot crossed the trench in three or two clicks, and the eyes of the startled Ming soldiers almost fell. The Ming army swarmed up and successfully arrived at the hill, and the stubborn soldiers of the Eight Banners completely lost their fighting spirit under the heavy blow of the Ming army's momentum. With almost no effort, the Ming army took the Eight Banners Battalion, where the baggage and grain were stored.

"Liu Wu, you stay and stay here, no problem, right? You send a few men and call the rest of the camp to gather here. ”

"No problem instructor, guarantee to complete the task!"

Shen Jia asked Li Fulai's second battalion to follow the chariot, and after a round with Zhang Shi's 1,000 cavalry, the Ming army prepared to return to the division to rescue the camp. On weekdays, the 1,500 Ming troops rarely engage the larger enemy head-on, but now with the power of the paratrooper chariots, the Ming army is high-spirited, wrapped in a layer of sand and dust, rolling in the direction of the camp.

An hour later, the Ming army marched to about 500 meters in front of the camp, and the Ming army saw a large number of Houjin cavalry galloping back and forth from a distance, covering the infantry to launch an attack. This Houjin cavalry from the south bank of Salhu was about 4,000 people, and their advance speed was extremely fast, and they were able to defeat Hou Shilu's 8,000 foot soldiers in one fell swoop in a short period of time, which shows their combat courage and tactical flexibility.

Shen Jia was thinking about it, but he didn't expect Wen Qing to rush up with one foot on the accelerator.

"Senior sister, save a little, there are only about thirty incendiary grenades left, we have to think about it for the future."

Wen Qing glanced at Shen Jia, anyway, it wasn't himself who operated the weapon, so what was the use of telling me. Wen Qing lowered his head and stepped on the accelerator sharply, and soon the chariot rushed to the front, Shen Jia saw the opportunity and fired a few shells, and the Eight Banners Army, which was caught off guard, was attacked from behind, and the formation immediately became chaotic.

On the opposite side was the Ming army, and Shen Jia didn't dare to fire wantonly, so he had to let Wen Qing fire at full speed and rush towards the enemy formation. The Houjin soldiers saw a monster from a distance, emitting black smoke, rumbling over. They stood there for a moment, then roared, then turned on their horses, pulled their horses and fled.

He Shixian in the camp found that reinforcements were coming, and immediately ordered to remove the obstacles in front of the camp.
