In an instant, the pursuers arrived. Zhenglan Banner Lord Mang Gurtai led hundreds of white-armored soldiers under his command to rush to the front, and suddenly saw dozens of large vehicles appear in front of him, and the Ming army that he had been chasing since Juehua Island all fled into the car formation.

Although Mang Gurtai has a violent temperament, he is not blindly brutal on the battlefield. He hadn't seen the Qi family's army in a car formation, but he didn't dare to make a mistake, so he ordered his subordinate Han army banner cavalry to test it first. Anyway, these Han soldiers are like pigs and dogs in his eyes, and they die when they die, and there is nothing to regret.

Qi Meifeng waited for all the Guan Ning iron cavalry to retreat into the car formation, so she closed the formation door tightly, and at the same time set up all the dozens of Franc machine guns. Seeing that the enemy was gradually entering the range of artillery, he shouted sharply: "Release!" ”

Suddenly there was a loud cannon fire in the car formation, and a cloud of gunpowder smoke rose up, choking Zhu Youzhen's tears. Although the size of the Franc cannon is much smaller than that of the Hongyi cannon, dozens of cannons were fired at the same time, and the shocking momentum was not inferior at all, and the silent earth was also shaken!

Due to the obstruction of the view by the cart, the traitor troops on the opposite side had no idea that there were so many artillery pieces in the cart array. At this time, the distance between the two sides is only more than 100 steps, which is a few hundred meters when converted into the metric system. When they saw the sudden smoke rising from the car array on the opposite side, and before they could even hear the sound, the dozens of iron bullets weighing several catties had already smashed down overwhelmingly.

It wasn't until the iron ball hit the ground and blood-colored ceremonial flowers bloomed in the Houjin army array, and the earth-shattering cannon sound reached the ears of these traitors. It was the last sound they could ever hear in their sinful lives, for they had been struck by an iron bullet!

Due to the lack of defense, the Houjin army still adopted a dense formation, and immediately suffered heavy casualties. These dozens of shells were wiped out in a row, and more than 200 people and horses were knocked down, almost directly destroying a Niu Lu!

And the traitor who survived the shell bombardment, seeing his companion next to him, a big living person who was still panting just now, but in the next second, he became a mess of flesh with a bloody stench, who is not afraid? Immediately let out a shout, turned around and ran.

Mang Gurtai in the back was also shocked when he saw this. He originally thought that the Hongyi cannon at the head of Ningyuan City was terrifying enough, but he didn't expect that a small car formation in front of him, plus the Ming army that had just fled in, could accommodate less than a thousand people at most, but there was such a huge artillery group hidden inside!

But after all, Mang Gurtai has experienced a hundred battles, and the scene is a hundred times more cruel than the casualties in front of him, he has not never seen it, so naturally he will not be easily intimidated. He judged very clearly that although the Ming army had fierce firepower, it was too small after all. The elite soldiers of the two blue and red banners under his command, plus the Han army banner to which he belongs, have a strength of at least 20,000 or 30,000 people, how can he be frightened away by the enemy army of only 1,000 people?

Therefore, he immediately and sternly stopped the fleeing soldiers of the Eight Banners of the Han Army, and all those who dared to run away were beheaded on the spot. After beheading more than a dozen soldiers in a row, the Houjin army finally stabilized its position and confronted the Qi family's army from a distance.

And at this moment, the Houjin cavalry that took a shortcut from the sea, under the leadership of a Zhenghongjia La'ezhen, had also been killed, and it was about to land on the shore.

Zhu Youzhen saw it at a glance, and hurriedly shouted: "Turn the muzzle of the cannon and fire at those eight calves!" ”

Not long ago, these hundreds of Qi family troops also fought side by side with Zhu Youzhen. Especially in the defense of Zunhua City, Zhu Youzhen was in a hurry and came up with the idea of artillery flat fire, which reaped miraculous results, which made them happy and convinced. At this time, listening to Zhu Youzhen's speech, it was equivalent to the main general's speech, and there was no need for Qi Meifeng to repeat the order, and they all worked hard to adjust the attitude of the artillery, preparing to fire again.

Li Chongyao said in surprise: "Sister Meifeng, why do your soldiers listen to the prince so much?" ”

Qi Meifeng smiled and said: "Your Highness is the king, we are the ministers, of course we have to listen!" ”

Li Chongyao pursed his lips disapprovingly and said: "He has no power at all, and he doesn't know how to fight, he is purely blind command!" It's just that I'm a little bolder! ”

Qi Meifeng shook her head lightly and said, "Sister Chongyao, it's not someone who knows martial arts to fight a good battle!" Although His Highness does not know martial arts, he is a good commander. If it weren't for His Royal Highness's good command, our Qi family army would have been wiped out in Zunhua! ”

"Really?" Li Chongyao stared at Qi Meifeng with suspicious eyes and said, "Sister Meifeng, why do you keep talking to the prince?" Could it be..."

Qi Meifeng's face flushed, and she hurriedly sneered: "What is it!" What my sister said was the truth. But you, why do you always deliberately say that Your Highness is not, is it duplicitous? Your Highness is letting you do this again, isn't it..."

"Who's duplicitous!" Li Chongyao also blushed and sneered, "I'm not as sweet as my sister's mouth, so I can talk!" A mouthful of 'Your Highness', how can you call it so close! ”

Qi Meifeng feigned anger and said: "Nonsense! As a third-grade general of the imperial court, when he saw King Xin, he naturally wanted to be called 'His Royal Highness', which was a gift to the monarch and ministers. But you call His Highness 'Lord', as if you are a member of His Highness's palace! ”

Zhu Youzhen saw the sound of the second daughter Yan Yuying, and he was still interested in arguing on the battlefield, and said with a smile: "I said that the two heroines, let's beat the enemy back first, and then go home and talk slowly!" ”

"People don't want to go home with you!" Li Chongyao pouted and smiled, "General Qi, are you going home with the prince?" ”

While the three of them were talking, the Franc cannon in the car formation had been adjusted and reloaded again. Zhu Youzhen didn't have the heart to flirt with the second daughter anymore, so he hurriedly yelled: "Aim at the sea ice on the shore for me, and hit it hard!" ”

The gunners of the Qi family army understood and immediately lit the fuse. A few seconds later, dozens of Franco's cannons roared again, throwing red-hot iron bullets onto the shoreline.

It should also be the bad luck of these cavalrymen who are in the red flag, the coast where they are going to land, I don't know if there is geothermal heat in the ground or what, anyway, the sea ice is not very solid, and there are already many large cracks.

At this time, the Ming army was covered by artillery fire, although there were not too many direct hits on the enemy, but the sea ice under their feet was smashed into thousands of holes.

The huge sea ice that was frozen was already very fragile under very strong stresses in all directions. After this heavy blow, there was a loud bang and shattered into thousands of pieces of broken ice.

And this Red Banner cavalry that stepped on the ice was like a high-rise building kicking into the air in one step, and even the people and horses fell into the icy sea water together. They all panicked and threw desperately in the biting waters, using every little piece of ice floe as a lifesaver. But the Jurchens didn't know water in the first place, and they were covered with thick heavy armor, how could a small ice floe bear such a large weight?

Due to the high amount of salt in seawater, its freezing point is still below freezing. After the Jurchens fell in, the heat in their bodies was lost rapidly, and the more they fluttered, the faster the loss rate. It didn't take long for these ugly creatures with slender pigtails to become exhausted, fluttering less and less, and finally sinking to the icy bottom of the sea with the ice in their arms.

They originally wanted to take a shortcut, but this is good, but they really copied the shortcut of life and reported to the king of Hades in advance.

All the Ming troops in the car formation, including Zhu Youzhen, Qi Meifeng, and Li Chongyao, no one expected that this artillery salvo would achieve such great results. Everyone was stunned for a moment before they erupted in earth-shattering cheers!

And the Jurchen commander Mang Gurtai in the distance saw it in his eyes, his heart was like a knife, and his chest exploded!

There are more than 1,000 people in this cavalry team of the Red Banner, and the general who leads the army is still a Jiala Ezhen, who can be regarded as a senior general in the Jurchen army. The banner owner of the positive red flag is the great Belle Daishan, because of the loss of his beloved son Wakda yesterday, the grief is excessive, and he cannot fight, so the red flag is temporarily managed by Mang Gurtai.

In this raid on Juehua Island, the blue flag and the red flag were dispatched, and only more than 200 people were killed or injured when attacking the island. But right now, the Ming army wiped out thousands of Red Banner cavalry with a single salvo, and Mang Gurtai simply didn't know how to explain to Daishan!

He finally lost the last shred of his senses, and roared wildly: "Give me the whole army an impact, and break these southern barbarians into ten thousand pieces!" ”

With Mang Gurtai's order, thousands of Houjin cavalry began a collective charge, eager to trample the Ming army on the opposite side to death!

Zhu Youzhen was frightened by the terrifying momentum of the enemy's galloping horses, and his face turned pale, and although the chariot formation of the Qi family army was powerful, it was really difficult to deal with so many cavalry.

Qi Meifeng was not afraid of danger, and shouted loudly: "The cavalry protects His Highness, half of the Franc machine guns are ready to shoot flat, the bird gunners and pikemen cover, and the archers deduct three arrows and shoot indiscriminately!" ”

The Qi family army moved when they heard the order, and the cavalry team led by Shi Biao swarmed up, forming an impenetrable human wall, firmly protecting Zhu Youzhen and the others in their hearts.

The gunners, on the other hand, desperately pushed the freshly fired Franc cannon, which was hot on the body, against the gap between the carts, stretched the muzzle straight ahead, and quickly loaded the ammunition.

It turned out that since the Battle of Zunhua, Qi Meifeng summed up her experience and added the new tactic of "artillery flat fire" to the daily training of the Qi family's army. At this time, these gunners are familiar with it, and they quickly adjust their gun posture, and only wait for the gun body to cool down before firing again.

More than 100 gunners and pikemen stood next to the Franc cannon to block the gaps in the formation. If the enemy tries to rush into the cart formation from here, they will be met head-on.

And the rest of the Qi family's sergeants and soldiers all supported their bows in their hands, but they put on three sharp arrows at one time, pointing at the sky. Qi Meifeng shouted: "Release!" They shot three arrows at once, forming a denser rain of arrows, overwhelmingly covering the Houjin army!

This attack method is also one of the unique tactics of the Qi family's army. When the enemy is desperately charging and the formation is very dense, the aiming of the bow and arrow shooting is not of much significance, but the number and frequency of arrows are more important. Shooting three arrows at a time is not accurate, but the killing area against the enemy is greatly increased.

But the Jurchen cavalry has been crisscrossing Liaodong for decades, and it has its own extraordinary. After a rain of arrows, the vanguard of the Jurchen cavalry turned on their backs, but the follow-up troops did not even blink an eye, lightly bypassed the corpses of their companions, shouted in a terrifying voice, and rushed to the chariot formation in an instant!

A tragic decisive battle has begun!
