readx;?“ It seems that our two armies, Jin Guoqi and Liang Fu, have been defeated, but their threat is not to be feared, ignore them, and just call a cavalry army of 500 men to keep an eye on them. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info "Shang Kexi was stunned for a moment, and immediately came back to his senses, these two armies, doesn't he still understand? I have exchanged hands a few times, but they are all at the touch of a button, and I can't fight at all.

"Xu Erxian, I'll give you a thousand cavalry, you will wait for my main force to press forward, and directly give me the formation of Wu Pin, he saw that his cavalry was less than half of yours, so he directly pressed the formation for me, divided it into two rows, and directly ran it over for me, killing them in one fell swoop."

"General, are the two rows a little thin? If this is pressed over, and Jin Guoqi takes the opportunity to give me a guy in the back, what should I do? Xu Erxian was stunned, this style of play is obviously to ignore the opponent's cavalry, and directly use his own cavalry to fight over in waves, either the enemy collapses, or his own stamina collapses.

"He will choose to escape, as long as the five hundred cavalry I arranged can firmly deter him, he will not dare to move, besides, I am commanding 2,000 infantry and the remaining two thousand cavalry in the front, advancing slowly, just use five hundred cavalry to suppress the formation, and the remaining 1,500 cavalry, I will all arrange them in the east, as long as Jin Guoqi dares to move the slightest, I will immediately converge with the monitoring troops to attack him directly." The more Shang Kexi spoke, the more excited he became, because he found the best opportunity to defeat the incoming enemy in one fell swoop.

That's because Zu Dashou and Wu Ji obviously pinned their hopes on Jin Guoqi and Liang Fu, but it's a pity that these two people can be used? Through the previous battles in Shandong and Tongzhou, he clearly felt that these two parts, to put it bluntly, have combat effectiveness, after all, one is the former local general army in Liaodong, and there are some elite cavalry under his command.

The other is the Baoding General Army, the elite here has always been the most powerful except for the Nine Sides, but with Liang Fu, a general soldier who does not dare to fight, it can be regarded as their bad luck.

"There are 1,500 cavalry of the general in the rear, then I can rest assured, the general just take a look, I will directly take the front 400 people as a line, directly rush to their flanks to kill, keep them and let them disperse in a hurry." Xu Erxian said his plan loudly, but he was a little conservative, and left two hundred people as his backhand, after all, whether it was Wu Pai's desperate counterattack or Jin Guoqi's sudden killing, these two hundred people could resist for a while, and buy some time to wait for Shang Kexi to arrive with the main force.

"Okay, that's it." Shang Kexi thought for a while, then nodded, then turned to Ban Zhifu and said, "You take two thousand infantry soldiers to divide into two formations, the first one takes 800 soldiers to engage the enemy formation, and the other way stabilizes the formation with 1,200 infantry soldiers, and your 500 cavalry, ranking in the gap between the right wing of the Guanning army and the middle army, if you win, you will press all of them on me." ”

Ban Zhifu was stunned when he heard this, this is a completely lifeless way to play, two thousand foot soldiers plus 15 artillery, there are enough seven hundred firearms teams in the queue, as long as they get close enough distance, they can take five rounds of fire, even if the bows and arrows of the Guanning army are sharp, they cannot be their opponents, but in this way, there will be a problem, the cavalry of the Guanning army is indeed unable to counterattack them in this direction.

But what if Jin Guoqi did not retreat according to Shang Kexi's prediction, but fought to the death? You must know that the cavalry that is running is extremely fast, and they are not far from the eastern battlefield, once activated, can their own cavalry plug the gap? If not, then their own infantry troops will even collapse by local countershocks,

"General, is it safer to arrange part of the cavalry in the east to accompany the foot soldiers?" Ban Zhifu talked about his worries, but immediately saw the smile on Shang Kexi's face, only to see him shake his head with a smile and say,

"It's not that I haven't considered your thoughts, but you can see for yourself, the Chinese army in the front has begun to engage, and the waving banner tells me that in the direction of the Chinese army, Jin Hengsheng has achieved the first victory, and now he is steadily attacking Zu Dashou's main formation, and in the back, it is the main force of 15,000 people personally commanded by His Royal Highness the King of Qi, our cavalry is more than the other party, and there are also more infantry firearms and artillery than the Guanning army, so as long as we can be invincible, there is no need to worry about anything."

Even worried that Ban Zhifu would not do his best to implement his plan, Shang Kexi solemnly added, "You see for yourself, I have a full 3,000 elite cavalry in my hands, commanding them, I am as simple as waving my arms, but the other party has not formed an array, you don't look at Wu Zhi holding 3,000 infantry and 500 cavalry in his hands, and there are more than 2,000 cavalry and more than 1,000 infantry of Jin Guoqi and Liang Fu in the east, you think they are strong, but these forces cannot be put into the same direction, there is a rift between them." ”

Ban Zhifu took a careful look at the situation on the battlefield, and the current situation is just as Shang Kexi said, Jin Guoqi's part and Wu Zhuang's part are distancing, and even Jin Guoqi's posture is preparing to outflank from behind, but this is like a joke, because the 15,000 men and horses under the command of Kong Youde himself are not simply used as the Chinese army to support the central part of the forward, but are also divided into three parts for reinforcement.

What's more, because Kong Youde also saw the deployment of the Guanning army in the east, he also deliberately temporarily strengthened the cavalry of 800 people on the east road, so as to make up 1,500 cavalry, this one is about six miles behind the forward, and they are speeding up to catch up, if this army arrives at the battlefield, then Wu Ji has no reason to continue to hold on.

"Please rest assured that the general will always move forward desperately, and will never turn back if he does not break the enemy in front of him."

Shang Kexi heard him say this, and when he saw his resolute face, he immediately said happily, "Very good, as long as you can break through the Guan Ning Army's infantry formation in front of you, I will give you the first credit, just move forward." ”

"Whoa!" Ban Zhifu agreed loudly, and then led more than 20 cavalry under his command to go up quickly, and then the entire East Road army was divided into several parts, in addition to the remaining 500 cavalry to be responsible for the contact with the follow-up formation, but also slightly offset to the east to monitor Jin Guoqi's cavalry, and Xu Erxian led a thousand cavalry directly to the northeast, they were ready to wipe the flank of the cavalry under Jin Guoqi to attack Wu Pai's flank.

Ban Zhifu led 500 cavalry and 2,000 infantry troops to move forward steadily, preparing to attack Wu Zhuang's main formation in the front, and finally Shang Kexi led 1,000 cavalry to move about 100 steps to the northeast slightly, just stuck on the way that Jin Guoqi attacked his own infantry formation, and suppressed Jin Guoqi's more than 2,000 cavalry with 1,500 cavalry of the Qi army, Shang Kexi had this confidence, because while he transferred his troops, Jin Guoqi still continued to move towards his southwest as if he didn't see it, God knows that he was preparing to cut off the connection between the Eastern Route Army and the Qi army's main formation, Or prepare to run away.

"Beat the drums, march~!" If it weren't for the striker Jin Hengsheng's insistence on launching the attack first, Ban Zhifu would have wanted to wait a little, at least when the main force of Kong Youde's army came up, they would have an absolute strength advantage of 40,000 against 20,000, instead of the current 25,000 against 20,000, of course, this number is aside from Jin Guoqi and Liang Fu, in fact, the strength of the two sides is about the same.

"Give the general an order, wave the flag, and notify Jin Guoqi's cavalry to launch a diversion attack to disrupt the deployment of the Guanning army; Then immediately let the front line move forward slightly, the firearms of the Qi army are powerful, don't wait for them to be ready to attack, we must strive to counterattack them first. Wu Ji took a little look at the deployment of the Qi army, and he roughly knew the situation on the battlefield, but he was now worried about whether Zu Dale's former army would be defeated too quickly, after all, if his main formation was attacked first, then even if his partial division won this way, he would not be able to win a decisive victory.

"Woo woo woo~~" The low sound of the bull's horn suddenly sounded, although the Guanning army is famous for its elite cavalry, but their foot soldiers are also not easy to mess with, the firearms owned by the Qi army, the Guanning army also has, but their artillery is insufficient, because according to the combat strategy of Sun Chengzong, Sun Ge Lao and Yuan Chonghuan, they are focused on operating the city, focusing on the defense of the Houjin, and the artillery is naturally a large cannon with a long range and sufficient weight, rather than the Franc machine gun and tiger squat cannon built by Sun Yuanhua in Shandong.

Even after the Qi army defeated the Ming army that came to suppress it, it also captured hundreds of small cannons by the way, and now this sharp weapon on the battlefield is used by the Qi army to attack the Guanning army.

"Raise your gun, move forward~!" In his opinion, the first wave should be put into the twelve artillery pieces and all the guns assigned to him, in order to break the front of the Guanning army at one time, forcing them to invest in the follow-up reserve force for repeated disputes, so that Xu Erxian, who was hidden in the shadows, could lead a thousand cavalry to tear through the opponent's defense line in an instant.

"Hmph, but only a thousand people, they dare to attack my own formation, I really don't know whether to live or die." At this time, Wu Jian would never have imagined that Jin Guoqi, who also belonged to the Guanning Army and had a life-and-death grudge with the Qi army, would retreat, and he was still full of thought that Jin Guoqi's cavalry was holding back the opponent's main cavalry, so he was ready to give way to the pawns to launch a counterattack, strive to take over the melee battle, and then use the advantage of numbers to defeat the other party.

"Kill me, crush them!" Even he was still dreaming of defeating the other party in one fell swoop, but he didn't know that Xu Erxian, who had run around Jin Guoqi, had begun to move towards his flank at this moment.

"Shoot the arrow~!" In this era, bows and arrows are still one of the most common long-range delivery weapons, after all, the artillery and firearms of the Ming army are notoriously easy to explode, this thing is useful except for defending the city, and other times is the end of a shot, so the Guanning army is at the forefront of the archery team, after entering the range, the firearms of the Qi army have not yet fired, but they have released arrows first.

"Fire~!" Almost at the same time, the three army formations with thirty people in a row and a group of one hundred and twenty people received orders at the same time, and then the first to approach a hundred people were originally moving with firearms in their hands, and immediately after the order was given, they aimed at each other,

"Poof~!" A series of firearms and the opponent's bow and arrow arrived almost at the same time, because in a short distance of fifty paces, whether it is a bow and arrow or a firearm, can give a lot of damage to the foot soldiers who do not have much protective ability, so the Qi army that was attacked first fell instantly, and more than 20 people were directly shot, and even many people began to dodge in a panic, and once their own army was embarrassed, but soon, the generals who reacted suddenly shouted loudly and gathered the troops and began to counterattack.

On the other hand, the infantry of the Guanning army is also killed and wounded, because the infantry of the firearms of the Qi army are veterans who have been on the battlefield for a long time, although the firearms in their hands are in danger of exploding, but under the skillful operation, this probability is minimized, and the power of firearms will never be smaller than the bow and arrow, the first and second rows of the Guanning army even fell like cutting wheat, this time in the competition, they suffered a big loss, but fortunately, the shooting speed of the bow and arrow is faster than that of firearms, So their second wave of arrows was also thrown out in an instant.

This time, the Qi army suffered, and the second row of firefighters they had finally gathered were about to fire, but they were nailed to their positions by the overwhelming rain of arrows, and they could no longer even speak.

"Don't mess up, they only have the strength to draw the bow three times, the first one alive will pick up a firearm for me to beat, and the second one won't mess up, whoever dares to run away will be beheaded on the spot, let me go." Ban Zhifu commanded calmly in the second formation, although they lost nearly fifty people under the blow of two rounds of arrow rain, but fortunately, the morale of the Qi army was high at the moment, they once thought that they had the possibility of fighting for the world, and they were attacking the Jingshi of the Ming Court, this kind of morale was not easy to be defeated.

At this time, the benefits of experiencing more battlefields in peacetime came into play, the Qi army fought with the Ming army in Shandong for nearly a year, struggling on the death line every day, so their foot soldiers were much stronger than the endurance of the Guan Ning army, and the firearms team in peacetime suffered one-eighth of the casualties, so it was basically impossible to force the battle, but now, their second formation quickly picked up and stabilized the position, and the terrifying five-row round shooting began.

"Bang~Bang~"

"Poof~!"

This is the sound of firearms and artillery firing at the same time, don't think that the Qi army has done nothing, they uphold the tactics they learned in Dongjiang Town before, and use the same firearms to arrange as many as five rows on the battlefield, and then take turns to fire forward, so that round after round, forming a continuous firepower strike with absolute superiority on the battlefield, and the soldiers who were unfortunately shot by stray arrows were ignored, and even they could hinder the progress of their own robes, because the whole team was in Ban Zhifu single-mindedly moving forward, And when a full hundred people were sent to supervise the battle, they actually resisted the first three rounds of crossbow strikes of the Guan Ning army without collapsing!
