Huang Taiji finally rushed to a place not far from Zhang Chu, and he could even see Zhang Chu holding a gun and smiling at him there. Huang Taiji is still confident in the combat effectiveness of himself and the guards around him, Zhang Chu and his generals are not their opponents at all, at this time, even if Zhang Chu wants to turn around and run away, it is too late, it seems that God has mercy, and victory will still belong to Houjin's side in the end.
"Boom! Rumble! "There was a continuous loud noise, and it turned out that Zhang Chu had arranged artillery on the flanks of his team, and fired at the Houjin cavalry at such a close distance, and he used shotguns.
Shotguns have a unique effect against cavalry at close range. The muzzles of the security guards were in the direction of each shot, and each cannon went out to open a long passage in the queue of the Houjin people. The grape-sized steel balls can not only pierce people, but even the horses have been punched out of blood holes. The proud armor worn by the Imperial Guards did not protect the soldiers from the shells.
Taking advantage of the high rate of fire of the artillery, the security army dumped a large number of shells in a short time, cutting off the arrows of the Houjin army's attack.
The infantry circles on both sides also moved quickly to block the gaps that had been opened.
"Fight with me, you're still tender." Zhang Chu continued to pose with a big red tasseled gun on the high post.
The soldiers sent to clean up the battlefield brought Zhang Chu a great news after a while, Huang Taiji was hit by a cannonball from the security army during the charge, and several bullet holes in his body were dead.
"Alas, why are you so careless, your father was killed by a shell, how can you also be killed by a shell." Zhang Chu sighed secretly in his heart, and then shouted: "Come on, bring Huang Taiji's head." ā
A soldier hurriedly ran over, cut off Huang Taiji's head with a knife and handed it to Zhang Chu.
Zhang Chu was careful not to let the blood on his head drip onto himself, stuck his head on the tip of the big gun in his hand, and then shouted: "Huang Taiji is dead!" "Raise the spear diagonally upward.
The surrounding soldiers also shouted: "Huang Taiji is dead, Huang Taiji was killed by the marshal." ā
"How can this be considered as if I killed it?" Zhang Chu thought to himself, how Huang Taiji died in the future must not be able to say again, but he did not really correct this mistake.
"Huang Taiji was killed by Dashuai!" The shouts spread and resounded throughout the battlefield, even drowning out the sound of gunfire.
Houjin people panicked when they heard the shouts of the security guards, and looked at Huang Taiji's previous location, not only was Huang Taiji gone, but even his personal guards were gone.
The hearts of the Houjin people were bottomless, and chaos began to appear, some people still wanted to continue to charge, and some teams wanted to retreat. At this time, no one stood up to take over the command of Huang Taiji, and in the end most of the people who wanted to retreat accounted for the majority, and a large number of Houjin cavalry disengaged from the security army and wanted to flee the battlefield.
As soon as the two sides disengaged, a huge disaster befell the Houjin people, and the security army could calmly reload and shoot at this time, and the artillery on the artillery position could also fire without any scruples. After only a while, the Houjin soldiers who retreated lost half of their men, and those who were still insisting on charging were also repulsed.
By this time, the Houjin people had completely lost their fighting spirit, and only wanted to flee the battlefield as soon as possible, and at this time, the four-legged horse was still somewhat useful for escaping. No matter how brave the security army is, it can't catch up with it on two legs.
In the past, the Ming army often fell into such a predicament, even if the Houjin people won the battle, the Houjin could rely on super mobility to quickly get out of the battlefield, so as to preserve the living force, and if there was a chance to fight again with the Ming army.
But today, the Houjin people lost such an opportunity, and after Zhang Chu's Chinese army was attacked, Zhang Chu quickly issued an order to the cavalry of the security army on the periphery.
At this time, the cavalry of the security army of the brigade just arrived at the battlefield, and the Houjin army, which had no intention of fighting, encountered the new force that had just joined the battlefield, and the battle between the two sides was naturally one-sided, and it was completely the security army chasing the Houjin cavalry behind, and it could even be said to be a massacre.
The Jurchen Peace Army led by Adali also rushed over, and while they were killed, they shouted loudly in Jurchen language, ordering the Houjin soldiers to surrender.
Finally, the Houjin cavalry, who could not escape, raised their hands and surrendered due to fear, and their actions had a demonstration effect, and more and more Houjin soldiers rolled off their horses and knelt on the ground to surrender.
Except for a few who escaped, all the elite people brought by the Houjin Emperor Taiji were explained here, and Zhang Chu couldn't believe such a result. The situation just now is actually very dangerous, if it weren't for the strict training of the security army and the firm belief of the soldiers, the security army would probably collapse, and the head on the tip of the gun at that time was likely to be Zhang Chu's.
The Houjin people are very proficient in horsemanship, if it weren't for Huang Taiji's adventurous attack, no matter how strong the security army is, it is impossible to wipe them all out at once, so it will be a long process to eliminate Houjin.
After eliminating the main force of the Houjin people and killing Huang Taiji, the morale of the security army was greatly boosted, and Zhang Chu ordered people to spread the news that Huang Taiji was killed. Then he ordered Li Yi, who was in the direction of Guihua City, and He Jin, who was in Lushun, to lead his troops to sweep through the area occupied by the Houjin people.
This time, everyone from all walks of life is really fighting bravely to be the first, and no one is willing to let go of this opportunity to beat the water dogs. In this process, the greatest meritorious service turned out to be the Jurchen Peace Army led by Adali, they followed Zhang Chu's instructions, while attacking the remnants of the Jurchen forces to surrender, many Jurchens saw that the Houjin trend has gone, Huang Taiji has also died, there is really no hope in fighting with the security army, it seems that Adali surrendered to the security army after the life is good. It is better to surrender to those of their own people than to fall into the hands of the Han Chinese, who hate the Jurchens to death.
Everywhere Adali went, he not only recovered a large number of areas, but also recruited many Houjin people. Zhang Chu didn't make it too difficult for these Jurchens, gathered them together for screening training, and then slowly placed them. The hatred between the Jurchens and the Han people could not disappear all at once with the demise of the Later Jin, and Zhang Chu was also thinking about how to resolve it.
Zhang Chu led the security guards to disarm and work non-stop, and after several months of fighting, they finally wiped out the forces of the Houjin people. It has a solid territory in the Tohoku region and is connected with the Naturalized Seongfu Valley and other places. Zhang Chu's security army has become a new and powerful force and has stepped onto the stage of history.
The news of the war between Zhang Chu and Houjin also spread to Guannai, and people watched the war in amazement, and the Houjin, who was invincible at the time, was defeated by Zhang Chu in a battle, and then Zhang Chu took a few months to erase Houjin from the map.
The nightmare of the Ming Dynasty for hundreds of years disappeared in this way, and unfortunately the Ming Dynasty is gone.
Zhang Chu consolidated his rule in the north, and finally had the energy to set his sights on the war-torn Guannai. (To be continued.) Mobile phone users, please browse and read, a better reading experience.
