The Houjin people led by Yue Tuo were harassed by the security army led by Zhang Chu, and finally the good news came at night, and the security army was found in front. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Later, the whole Jin army was dispatched and went straight to the security army to chase after them.

Zhang Chu was wandering around not far from the Houjin army with 3,000 cavalry, and received a report that the Houjin people were chasing after him, Zhang Chu did not hesitate to give the order: "Run!" ”

For a while, the road was dusty, and the security army was gone.

Hou Jin looked at the dust raised in front of him but became excited, looking at the situation of the dust, the enemy should have a scale of thousands, this should be the main force of the Ming army, as long as they bite them, the victory will belong to Hou Jin sooner or later, and the people who have not surpassed the Hou Jin soldiers in riding skills have not yet surpassed them.

The cavalry led by Zhang Chu was almost prepared for escape, not only one person and two horses, but also the soldiers were lightly armed, most of them did not even wear armor, and they ran fast, and the Houjin people certainly did not think that anyone rode a horse faster than them, and chased after them.

With Zhang Chu's character, of course, he would not have a fair horse race with the Houjin people, so the road after the security army ran was not smooth, and the Houjin people chased after him, looking at the road that the security army passed through safely and soundly, but when they passed, there would be explosions.

The minefield preset by the security army greatly slowed down the pursuit of the Houjin army, but the Houjin people were unmoved, and the security army had already learned these tricks before. Although the continuous explosions caused casualties to the Houjin people, it could not stop them from pursuing.

The security army tried desperately to escape, but they never escaped from the sight of the Houjin people, and chased after them, and the Houjin people at the front cheered. Because they saw the sea in front of them, the security army ran and followed and ran into a desperate situation, there was the sea in front and there were pursuers in the back, and if the security army wanted to escape again, they had to fly over, and even if a ship came to pick them up, there was no time to board the ship.

Chasing closer, Yue Tuo finally understood why these Ming troops ran to the sea, it turned out that there was a camp built on the seaside, and the security army quickly fled to the camp, and the drums and trumpets in the camp sounded in unison, transmitting information, and the soldiers entered the position to defend according to the pre-deployment.

Yue Tuo discovered the situation ahead, but it made the Houjin people stop the pursuit, and it was very dangerous for the enemy to act rashly when he was prepared.

Houjin people stopped, Yue Tuo led people to observe the military camp in front, although he would not say such words as "knowing oneself and knowing one's enemy", but there is a basic way to fight, and it will not be wrong after years of conquest and tempering.

Yue Tuo carefully observed the barracks of the security army and came to the conclusion that the generals of the opposing army must have entered the water in their brains when they built the camp here. The barracks were built on a flat beach, unsheltered and protected by no natural barriers.

The security forces may have noticed this problem and strengthened the camp, building a low wall around the camp and digging a series of crooked trenches around the perimeter. These trenches were dug in such a hurry, neither deep nor wide enough for a qualified Houjin knight to cross with a horse, and a few wooden stakes were sparsely laid on the perimeter of the trench, and these simple facilities could not stop the brave Houjin warriors.

Yue Tuo saw that the pursued Ming army ran into the barracks in embarrassment, there should be a part of the Ming army in the barracks, but the biggest mistake made by the Ming army was to leave the island, there was no natural barrier of sea water, on land the Ming army was a lamb to be slaughtered, in order not to give the Ming army more time to prepare for defense, Yue Tuo ordered the Houjin people to quickly gather together to form a charging phalanx, this time he sent most of the Houjin troops, leaving only a small part with himself in the rear to watch the battle. He just wanted to rush over with a crushing momentum and completely break the confidence of the Ming army, maybe as soon as the Houjin cavalry charged, the Ming army in the camp surrendered or abandoned the camp in fright and fled, and the defeated Ming army had no ability to resist, such things often happened.

The formation of the Houjin army's charge was quickly hit, and a loud noise was heard in the barracks of the security army, and dozens of shells flew towards the Houjin army, knocking out dozens of death passages in the neat queue of the Houjin army. Far from stopping the Houjin, this round of shelling made them speed up their charge.

The Later Jin people understood that the Ming army was always a few axes, first shelling and then the sound of muskets, and when the Later Jin army approached, the Ming army should turn and flee. The loading of the artillery of the Ming army was very slow, and the time after a round of shelling was the safest, and using this time to get close to the Ming army, the artillery could only hit the rear, and it was the safest to rush to the front.

But this time the Houjin people miscalculated, and it didn't take long for the Ming army's artillery to fire the second round, and the huge cannonballs knocked the Houjin cavalry and horses to the ground, and the momentum continued to cause a large number of casualties to the people behind. The Houjin people were a little confused, did the Ming army have so many artillery pieces that could be fired in echelons. Yue Tuo saw that the speed of the charge had slowed down, and understood that there was fear in the Houjin team, and he must not retreat at this time, otherwise the previous casualties would be in vain.

Yue Tuo gave the order to speed up the attack through his own soldiers, and the Houjin people regained their strength. The speed of the forward charge gradually increases. The Houjin people carried the security army two rounds of artillery fire and then approached the position of the security army, hundreds of casualties are nothing to the charge of thousands of people, they also saw hope, the horse speed to the fastest, such a close distance after a while rushed over, in the hand-to-hand combat there is no Ming is the opponent of the Houjin army, there are anxious Houjin soldiers have taken off the horse bow, ready to approach the security army when a fatal blow.

The sound of the cannon rang out again, this time the Houjin people did not see the black cannonballs, but heard the sound of the rainstorm, but it was not the raindrops that landed, but the iron sand the size of broad beans, the iron sand passed through the human body and the body of the horse, the excellent armor looked so fragile in front of the artillery shotguns, as long as the best equipped white armor in the queue was hit, there was only a result of falling off the horse and dying, for the Houjin people, there was no safe place on the battlefield, and no one was the darling on the battlefield, If you want to live, you can only pray that the shells don't fall on your side.

The galloping horses did not give any time to think, and the charge in a group was not something that a single person in the queue could turn around. Their fate was decided when the Houjin people lifted the horses up completely, either rushing forward to kill the enemy or being killed by the oncoming cannonballs.

The security forces on the opposite side did not have so many troubles, the artillery was completely mechanical loading and firing, and the misty smoke of gunpowder made them completely unable to see their own results.

The musketeers crouched in the trenches, and all they could hear was the rumbling of cannons and the hoofs of the approaching horses. The fighters did not have time to think about the question of life and death, and the only thing that the long-term training allowed them to think about at this time was the steps of musket shooting that the instructor had lectured about. It seemed like a long time after the first cannon shot before they heard the hoarse shouts of the platoon commander in charge: "Ready! Get into position! Fire! (To be continued.) )
