Gao Yang quickly made detailed arrangements for the response. More than 10,000 infantry formed a phalanx and gathered into a larger army formation to continue to move forward. And Gao Yang personally led nearly 5,000 dragoons to take the initiative to meet those Mongolian cavalry. Gao Yang can also be regarded as a veteran who has experienced too many ups and downs. He doesn't care who the enemy is, he only cares where the enemy is now!

Niu Lu Zhang Jingduotu, who is only 33 years old this year, led more than 200 bannermen with yellow flags and drove thousands of clothed minions towards the new military formation opposite.

The brain is not a tendon, and the multi-figure is already full of sweat at the moment. The fierce and vicious eyes of the past are now drifting from side to side, and from time to time they glance back at the banner of Abatai, and the muttering is not a good thing.

Among the 200 or so people under his command, there were only about 50 armor soldiers, and the rest were all ordinary armorless soldiers. As for the tooth swinger, there is none. It stands to reason that urging these thousands of clothed minions to come forward and fight with their lives must be followed at least by a group of tooth-swinging and pressing formations. But at this moment, even the dozens of white-armored and red-armored tooth swingers in his own cattle record were transferred away by Abatai. This made Duotu have a faint bad premonition in his heart. His right eyelid began to jump, and he felt as if he was going to be out of luck today.

Ulhan, who had rounded the left side of the battlefield, had a much simpler mind. He soon noticed that thousands of cavalry were coming up from the opposite side. Even if he felt that he couldn't beat it just by looking at the numbers, he didn't want to escape, which was not at all in line with the habits of the Mongols at this moment. Wielding the whip in his hand, he scolded his cavalry to prepare for battle.

"That's a lot of guts." Gao Yang, who came with the dragoons, couldn't help but laugh when he found that those Mongols, who were far fewer than him, actually dared to line up and prepare for a big fight.

"It's not a comparison just in terms of quantity, right? Not to mention the weaponry that is a whole era apart. Not to mention the level of training, morale of the army, and so on. Where did they get their faith? "The origin is also incomprehensible who gave these Mongolian cavalry such fearless courage.

"Do you need to ask? Of course, it was given to them by the Ming army. Gao Yang pouted and said. The reason why the Manchus and Mongols are so arrogant at this moment is naturally the confidence given by the Ming army that was defeated in a battle in the past.

After the Battle of the Daling River, hundreds of Manchu and Mongolian cavalry were often able to flee like ducks with thousands of Ming troops. At this moment, more than 2,000 Mongolian cavalry faced the Ming cavalry, which was twice as large as their own, and their confidence had not completely dissipated.

The whole battlefield began to boil over gradually. The total number of troops that both sides could put into the battlefield in advance was about 30,000. There are about 20,000 people here in Gaoyang. Of course, there were nearly 20,000 people in the rear of the Forces nouvelles crossing the river. However, these infantry and artillerymen are estimated to be unable to catch up with this operation.

The Manchu Qing threw most of their forces into it at one time. In the rear, only the most elite hundreds of Zhenyi armor soldiers were left. Abatai wanted to see what was going on on the battlefield. If the battle ahead is going well. Then put the elite in your hands and completely defeat the Ming army in one fell swoop. If it doesn't go well, then just leave. Anyway, I can explain to Dolgon.

The Mongol cavalry was the first to be launched. It's not that they're the fastest, it's because Ullihan's personality is impatient and irritable. Losing hundreds of cavalry before was definitely a major blow to his tribe. If you can't make a war to atone for your sins, let Dorgon replenish it. Then he should be unlucky to go back. Even if he is the youngest son who is most loved. None of his brothers were fuel-efficient lamps.

After the Mongolian cavalry was ready, they soon began to instigate their horses to move slowly towards the Ming cavalry on the opposite side. And the reaction of those Ming cavalry was very strange. About half of the cavalry dismounted and stepped forward. In front of the military formation, several tight lines of battle were formed. Every sergeant has a powerful musket in his hand! At this time, if a military enthusiast sees it, he will inevitably shout "Multi-stage shooting!" ”

That's right, it's a multi-stage shot! In the days when there were no machine guns, this was arguably the best way for musketeers to deal with cavalry charges. With a rate of fire of more than six rounds per minute, the Ferguson rear-loading rifle can be used to maintain an almost continuous rain of bullets against the cavalry!

The effective range of the musketeers was more than 400 meters! Under the dense fire that breaks through the limit, this distance can become a nightmare for the charging cavalry. It is almost impossible for any cavalry to actually break through this line of death alive!

Although he had just been taught a lesson, it was clear that Ulhan still believed that his cavalry could successfully storm the Ming army. As soon as they can get close, the muskets in the hands of those musketeers will turn into waste like burning sticks. The rest is time for the Mongolian warriors to perform.

Ullihan had no other choice. Continuing to the left is a small hill bag, and he can't ride up the mountain with the Mongols, right? Not to mention on the right, the coats of the brigade over there were driven like sheep towards the center of the Ming army. If you really want to fight, then you can only break through the middle.

The Ming army in front of him only looked like six or seven platoons, and each platoon was no more than three or four hundred people. These Ming troops did not wear armor or set up pikemen, all of them were musketeers. Ulihan was determined to use the speed of cavalry to carry the casualties and lean forward, and cut off the heads of these Ming soldiers with the swords in his hands! As for the Ming cavalry behind, he couldn't control it anymore. Break the current battle formation first, and then talk about other things!

Thousands of huge horses' hooves slammed wildly against the earth, making a thunderous sound. The furious cavalry charge began.

After the speed is raised. These Mongols, who grew up on horseback, escaped the horrific musket shots. They began to play tricks such as hiding in stirrups, hiding people in the belly of horses, and so on. Even those who don't play with flowers will stick their bodies to the horse's back to reduce the bullet area. The battlefield is the best place to learn, when the lives of these Mongols are threatened. The pace of learning is very fast.

It's just that while they overestimate themselves, they also underestimate the strength of their opponents. The gap between the two sides is too big.

"You're pretty skilled, aren't you?" Gao Yang put down the telescope in his hand, slightly curled the corners of his mouth, and smiled indifferently.

"What exactly do they think? Even if the lead bullet can't hit people, isn't the result the same when hitting a horse running at high speed? Falling off a horse at this speed is also a death. Or was he thrown to death and trampled to death. Yuan asked puzzled.

"This is the great change that the emergence of new weapons has brought to the battlefield. Because I don't know, I can't understand it. It's like when the English army is attacking the city of Canton. The Qing army didn't know the power of the ship's strong artillery, so they poured black dog blood on the city wall to fight against the monsters. On the contrary, it was the brave villagers who took advantage of the night to attack. Hit a three-dollar mile. However, the battle loss ratio of 2,000 to 60 is not a great victory. It's all a tragedy that happened because I didn't know it. Gao Yang shook his head slightly, and sighed. His eyes gradually hardened, "This kind of thing must not be allowed to happen." The Manchus, who knew nothing but ignorance, would never be allowed to enter the customs! Not only for the Ming Dynasty and its people, but also for this civilized country that has been inherited for thousands of years so that it will not fall into the bottomless abyss! ”

"Then kill it." "Only war and killing are the best means to stop this." Of course, if you can get those who read to use all kinds of great truths to influence those barbarians, it is not impossible to go another way. ”

"Don't be funny." Gao Yang smiled bitterly and shook his head: "The probability of success in that kind of thing is even lower than the probability of winning the jackpot when I bought a lottery ticket before." Alright, let's not talk about that, let's get started. ”

After the Mongolian cavalry of the brigade shouted and screamed and rushed across the life and death line of 400 meters, the dense gunfire of chasing souls and killing people remembered again. First there were a few crisp gunshots, followed by a continuous explosion like thunder! The smoke generated by the firing of a large piece of gunpowder shrouded the positions of the new army, and between the flashes of fire, it was the distance between life and death!

The sergeants in the front row immediately turned to the rear line as soon as they finished shooting, and at the same time began to reload their ammunition. The sergeant in the back row immediately made up for it. Shooting, then turning and walking backwards, the sergeants repeated the same action over and over again. The sergeants who can be selected for the dragoons are naturally better than ordinary sergeants. Their shooting hit rate is no less than low.

If the Mongol cavalry wanted to rush through this short distance of 400 meters, it would take nearly a minute to say the least. And during this time, the frequency of firing of the new army was at least more than twelve rounds! Thousands of lead bullets hit less than 20 percent, and some of them hit the same target. Even so, thousands of hits were enough to make the battle losses of this desperate assault Mongol cavalry more than 30%!

In this era, more than half of the army that has not collapsed is already an elite army. And this Mongolian cavalry is completely out of line with the elite troops, and the reason why they are still blindly moving forward despite such heavy losses is mainly because they can't retreat at the moment!

It was really difficult for the cavalry unit to stop after it had picked up speed and started to charge. The soldiers in the back have always followed the charge, and they don't know much about the situation in front. By the time the soldiers in the front row hung up, it was too late for them to see the battlefield.

In front of the Mongol cavalry was a rain of bullets and bullets chasing souls and killing people, and the corpses of men and horses were strewn on the ground, seriously obstructing the way forward. Many of the horsemen were overturned on their backs by the corpses on the ground, and then trampled into flesh by countless pairs of huge horses' hooves!

The Mongol cavalry, which launched the charge, was completely plunged into a great chaos. The path was blocked by a rain of bullets, and the corpses on the ground forced the cavalry to slow down. It was originally a huge target, and when it lost its speed, it died even faster. (To be continued)
