Chapter 321: Is this the Guan Ning Army entering the customs?

"Catch them and break them to pieces!"

Erlinchen lay on the back of his horse, dodging the arrows that came over from time to time, roaring to vent the anger in his heart, which was really infuriating. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

But in his anger, he didn't notice anything abnormal, that is, why there were groups of Mongolian cavalry on the right wing of Datong Town, which was located in the hinterland of the Ming Dynasty, and there were more than a hundred horsemen at one time.

Maybe it was the blue flag and the red flag behind him that gave him great confidence, maybe it was the invincibility of the Jurchens and the record of sweeping the Ming Dynasty, which carried him away, since entering the customs, no Ming army dared to fight with them, which boosted the arrogance of these people.

It's a pity that in this world, there are still a few troops that dare to fight with them in the field, whether it is the last glory of the Qi family army in Xiaolinghe, or the last cry of the Julu Tianxiong army, the Chinese Han people are not broken after all.

It's not that the men of the Han family don't have the intention of serving the country to the death, but the ruling class of the Ming Dynasty who is corrupt at the top has become a situation where they dare not fight and cannot win, no one is willing to die for the rotten Ming Dynasty, and some are just dead soldiers who defend the family, and the military household system has prevailed for two hundred years, and the Ming Dynasty is about to end.

"Taiji, the situation is not right, where did these centaurs come from? Could it be that there are still Mongol cavalry who will help the Ming Dynasty? Unless their Han emperor transferred the Guanning army from Liaodong in. ”

Among the Mongol tribes who followed Erlinchen into the army, not all of them were fools, at least the Manchurian Jurchens attacked Liaodong many times, and as vassals, they also participated in the war, and they had seen the power of the Guanning Iron Cavalry in Liaodong.

"What's the matter with him, Guan Ningjun, catch up and kill them all!"

Erlinchen was stunned for a moment, but soon came back to his senses, he didn't fight the Guanning army, those people were brave, but whether it was Huang Taiji or Horqin, they all understood the habits of the Guanning army, that is, as the Guanning Iron Cavalry of the Jiading army, as long as they were not forced to a dead end, they would never fight to the death.

In this way, the light cavalry of the Mongol Dulbert Division, with two hundred and seventy eighty horsemen, dressed in soft armor of animal skins and armed with bows and arrows, entered the preset battlefield prepared for them by the beggar army, while the Manchurian Jurchen soldiers, at the very beginning, were cut off from the Mongol forward army, and the Mongol cavalry of the same size was outflanked from both flanks.

However, the Jurchen scouts and elite horse armor discovered that in the case of fighting more with less, the Jurchen Tartars relied on their armor and shot three Mongol cavalry who tried to get closer, and only one of them was wounded by stray arrows.

It's not a boast, even if it is equipped with sharp weapons such as heavy bows and strong crossbows provided by the beggar army, but the organization and discipline of the Mongols still can't be improved much, and the traditional tactics of war are not really big about the killing of the Jurchens, and the Mongols will not be able to master such sharp weapons as firearms and horse pistols for a while and a half.

Therefore, the first wave of harassing attacks was easily repulsed, but what surprised the Jurchens was, why did they encounter hostile Mongol tribes in the hinterland of Datong Town, could it be that the Ming court and Lin Dan Khan formed an alliance to deal with the Manchurians together?

Yehri Sakha felt that something was wrong, but after he received the report from his subordinates, saying that the Mongolian army of the vanguard army had advanced lightly, he felt even more shocked, when did the Mongolian army under Lin Dan Khan dare to fight head-on with his own family?

"You, go back and inform the report, just say that we have bitten the main force of the Southern Barbarians, please send troops to help quickly, and defeat the main force of the Southern Barbarians together, go quickly!"

At the critical moment, he didn't dare to make a decision easily, but sent a vest, with ten armor and ten Aha, and turned back to report the news together, because the Mongolian army that appeared around was more than two hundred horsemen, which was not a small number, if his estimate was correct, in the surroundings, it would not be less than ten times the Ming army and the Mongolian army.

Because under the premise of entering the army, no small army dared to attack and disturb, this is a long-term and long-standing sense of battle, and no one will send cavalry to send cavalry to death under the condition of Manchurian and Mongolian joint troops.

Then, he quickly ordered that in all directions, a dozen or dozens of True Jurchen and Aha were dispatched to search the entire battlefield, as long as they did not enter the preset battlefield of the Southern Barbarians, the three or four hundred people in his hands were enough to fight a decisive battle with a Ming army of two thousand people, and they could also guarantee victory in the battle.

But the main thing is that what happened today is something abnormal, that is, why the main force of the Ming army dares to fight themselves here, is there nothing abnormal in it?

"xu~~~~poof~!"

"It's not good, it's a person who was attacked and asked for help, Ezhen, what should I do?"

A vest suddenly heard a loud noise in front of him, and estimated the distance, it was his own Mongolian army, which was attacked!

"Regardless of him, bastard, he dares to be greedy and rash!"

Although Yehrisaha said this, he was a little hesitant in his heart, because Erlinchen was the Taiji of the Dulbert Department, and his status was very high, and if he really died here, then if he went back, he would be whipped at the lightest, and if he didn't do it, he would be punished with household ding and cattle and sheep, which he could not accept.

Besides, he has one or two hundred true Jurchens in his hands, which is an extremely strong force, according to the past, one hundred true Jurchens, and a thousand Ming troops on top of him, so he is not afraid of fighting, but he is afraid of losses, you must know that there are only more than 200 people under a Niu Lu, and it is unacceptable to die one, if he loses these warriors, why should he gain a foothold in the army?

Therefore, even if he robbed more Han Aha, he was unwilling to exchange his tribe for the lives of Han people.

"Stupid! Come on, organize the army to march and defeat the southern barbarians in front of you! ”

After thinking about it again and again, the scouts who came back from the back road and the left and right sides reported to him that he did not notice the ambush of the Southern Barbarians and the Chahar Mongol tribes, so he swallowed a little breath, but he was still depressed in his heart, but he had to bring troops up.

It's just that what he doesn't know is that Erlinchen can't hold on now.

The reason is that the strength of the Jurchen soldiers is beyond the calculation of the beggar army, good guy, one face-to-face, with fifty or sixty people each, shooting heavy arrows, can only injure one enemy, but his own side has killed three, such an elite who is good at shooting, how can it be easy to fight?

If they were to come up close and join the Mongols, what kind of tough battle would it be?

Therefore, Liang Sijiu temporarily changed the military order, and ordered the twenty tiger squat guns in the artillery array, divided into two, one for twelve, to arrive close to the encirclement and stand by, and the remaining eight to shoot separately, he did not hesitate to expose his strength, ready to scare off the follow-up Tartar soldiers, this kind of battle, not easy to fight.

As soon as he made such a change, the two or three hundred Mongols led by Erlinchen were blinded, and when he completely entered the encirclement, he was stunned by a surprise artillery fire, and a full eight artillery pieces came close to open fire, and hit the charging team on the spot, killing and wounding, and before they could come to their senses, four of them were urgently drawn from all directions, and fifteen or six hundred cavalry were directly squeezed and launched a fierce attack.

Unlike the Mongol army that took refuge in the beggar army, these Mongols who were attached to the Manchurian Jurchens were still equipped with light bows that could not pierce armor over long distances, and because there was too little smuggled pig iron, their arrows were not made of pure iron, so they could not cause too much damage to the armored cavalry of the beggar army in front of them, even if they were hit by an arrow, it was a minor injury.

Since they could not inflict too many casualties on their own family, the beggar army took action, and the cavalry of 15,600 men pressed over, first shot them with bows and crossbows, and then came up with heavy hammers, and began to fight hard.

I have to say that although the battlefield selected by the beggar army is like an encirclement, in fact, there is a big gap, but with a large number of people, it is simply blocked, and the troops pursued by the Mongolian Tatars are only two or three hundred people, and they can't set off any storms at all.

And the powerful allies will need half an hour to get here, otherwise, if the light impact is here, people will be unable to fight on their backs, but for them, half an hour, then wait to collect their corpses.

Erlinchen was unwilling to sit and wait for death, and decided to lead the cavalry to break through, but he broke through to the northeast three times in a row, and was beaten back, except for discarding more than a dozen corpses and adding a dozen wounded, nothing was found, which was also a Mongolian light cavalry, which determined that they were highly mobile, but their attack ability was relatively weak, and they could not penetrate the encirclement of the Ming army at all.

And as the rear army arranged by Erlinchen was gradually squeezed and eaten, the remaining men and horses, like rootless pings, could no longer stand, and turned their horses' heads one after another, trying to find an opportunity to break through, and could no longer organize an effective attack.

If one side shows weakness, there must be one side that has the absolute upper hand, and if the beggar army says that these newly formed cavalry are not skilled in combat effectiveness, but if they beat the water dogs, then there will be no problem at all.

They went up in groups of three or five, struggling to pack up the lone Mongolian Tartars, and sometimes even jumped for the sake of an enemy passing in front of them, without achieving military successes, you must know that the heads of the Mongolian Tartars and the Ming army are not a price, if you can kill the heads of three Mongolian Tartars, the soldiers can be turned into captains, and the commanders can be turned into chiefs, this is more important than anything else!

"This must be the head of the thief, kill it quickly!"

Although Zhang Tingzu is a literati, but he has lived in the border for a long time, and he is also good at dancing swords and knives, at this moment he took the military law team to observe on the side, and saw that no one escaped at all, and suddenly had other ideas.

He pulled out a saber from his waist, shouted directly, beckoned to more than 20 soldiers of the military law team around him, and suddenly pounced. (To be continued.) )
