Chapter 198: Charging into battle

In fact, the total number of pirates is more than 3,000 and less than 4,000. The www.biquge.info belong to more than 10 camps and belong to various islands. The nominal leader of everyone is Song Liben, after all, everyone came at the invitation of Sijiao Mountain, in order to rescue Gu Da's family. However, it is impossible to know how many of them are sincere in coming to rescue Gu Rong, or whether they have the intention of robbing and making a fortune.

Song Li was not Gu Rong, he didn't have any prestige in the archipelago at all, in fact, most of the pirates didn't know him except for Sijiao Mountain, so he couldn't control the pirates at all.

Nearly 4,000 pirates flocked to Zhoushan City, and they were not divided into formations. When they first arrived in Zhoushan, they annihilated the Zhoushan naval army almost effortlessly, which made everyone look down on the combat effectiveness of the Zhoushan army, and they couldn't understand how the dignified Gu Boss could be defeated by such an official army, and the people were captured alive.

It took a quarter of an hour for three thousand pirates to come to Zhoushan City from the seaside, and before they could stop, suddenly the gate of Zhoushan City opened, and a group of officers and soldiers came out.

Huang Fengwu rode out of the city gate, pointed his spear forward, and took the lead to kill the general.

War horses in the southern Ming Dynasty were scarce, and usually only generals could equip them. There are a total of more than a dozen war horses in Zhoushan's general's mansion, or Huang Binqing spent a lot of money to buy them from Datong, and the usual treasure is like something, and now it finally has a place to use.

Huang Fengwu led a dozen cavalry to fight like a horse, and launched an attack on the pirates in front, while the remaining hundred personal soldiers quickly chased forward.

Less than a mile away, the war horse just raised the speed, and hit the panicked pirate head-on, Huang Feng danced with a spear, the sharp blade slashed through the throat of a pirate, and then took advantage of the situation to pull away a pirate in front of the way, the speed of the war horse did not slow down in the pirate group, and the pirates in front of him dodged in terror.

More than a dozen cavalrymen galloped quickly along the road driven out of Huang Fengwu, and many pirates who couldn't dodge were directly knocked over by the galloping war horses, trampled by iron hooves, and lost their breath at the moment.

War horses were scarce in the south, and these pirates had never seen so many cavalry in their lives, let alone fought with cavalry. When the war horse rushed towards them quickly, the first choice of most people was to dodge quickly.

Huang Fengwu led a dozen cavalry to cut through the pirates' array at once, and although it didn't bring much damage, it caused chaos.

After the pirate array, Huang Fengwu grabbed the reins, and the war horse slowly slowed down and turned his head. More than a dozen cavalrymen reined in behind Huang Fengwu without saying a word, forming the queue.

Turning his head to look at his subordinate soldiers, Huang Fengwu let out a coquettish shout, wielded his spear, and rushed towards the pirates again. Where there are many pirates, Huang Fengwu will rush with the cavalry.

Seeing the terrible war horses rushing towards them, the pirates all dodged in a hurry, and no one dared to block the way of the war horses.

More than 100 personal soldiers rushed out of the cavalry and entered the pirate array, this more than 100 personal soldiers were supported by Huang Binqing with great effort, and the salary and silver treatment on weekdays were several times that of ordinary soldiers, of course, the intensity of training was far above that of ordinary soldiers, so the combat effectiveness was very strong, and even the most ferocious pirates could also fight.

The pirates had just been rushed by the cavalry, and they were in a state of confusion, and they could not stop the strong hundred personal soldiers, and dozens of pirates were cut down in one look. Seeing that the officers and soldiers were so fierce, the other pirates did not dare to go against the officers and soldiers at all, and desperately hid behind.

Nearly 4,000 pirates were shocked by more than a dozen cavalry and more than 100 officers and soldiers.

Song Li was stunned and looked at the chaos next to him, four thousand people were beaten like this by more than a hundred officers and soldiers, what a dish this should be! A pirate is a pirate, and I'm afraid it will never be on the table!

"Raise the weapons in your hands, everyone lean closer, don't be afraid, don't run away, do you have war horses that run fast?" When he saw the female general in red rushing in his direction, Song Liben shouted loudly in fright.

Hearing Song Liben's order, dozens of his subordinates raised their weapons in their hands and stood side by side. The other pirates of Sijiao Mountain did the same, and although they were terrified, no one ran away.

Although the pirates did not have long weapons such as spears, most of them carried short knives, long knives, and even harpoons. But when a bright blade pointed at him in front of him, Ren is galloping war horse also dodged it willingly, not daring to collide directly.

Huang Fengwu glanced at the group of pirates fiercely, pulled the reins and changed the direction to kill. Although if you charge hard, you may be able to break through the pirate array, but in that case, the cavalry will be damaged, and all the war horses in Zhoushan add up to only a dozen, and Huang Fengwu is reluctant to damage a single war horse.

But the next moment, Huang Fengwu regretted it, seeing that the official cavalry did not dare to attack the pirates in the array, and the other pirates also followed suit, gathering together with courage, and the sharp blades pointed forward.

After the initial panic passed, the pirates gradually calmed down, and dozens or hundreds of pirates huddled together, making the space for the cavalry to gallop smaller and smaller.

After the panic of the pirates passed, more than 100 soldiers also felt the pressure. Realizing that there were only more than 100 officers and soldiers who came to attack, many pirates were ashamed and furious, and the pirates were all brave people, and now they were killed by more than 100 officers and soldiers like this, and they felt ashamed to think about it. Many pirates shouted angrily and rushed towards the officers.

Huang Fengwu realized that the opportunity had been lost, and staying any longer would only increase his own casualties, and the war horse was already tired after running for a long time.

"Back to the city!" Huang Fengwu turned around and went down to the city, killing and scattering the pirates who were surrounded by a hundred soldiers.

In a matter of moments, more than a dozen of their soldiers had been killed, and the pirates were rushing at them in a rage.

"Retreat!" With Huang Fengwu's order, all the officers and soldiers turned around and ran down the city, while the pirates reluctantly chased behind.

Huang Fengwu rode behind his horse and broke behind, spears danced, and several pirates fell in a pool of blood. Seeing her so fierce, the other pirates subconsciously slowed down.

"Rush over and grab the gates!" Song Liben shouted loudly from behind, and hearing his words, the pirates quickened their pace.

Closer, closer, I have seen the panicked faces of the officers and soldiers guarding the gate of the city. The pirates ran closely behind the officers and soldiers, and as long as they rushed into the city gate, Zhoushan City would not be owned by the officers and soldiers.

However, before the pirates could be surprised, a "bang bang bang" gunfire rang out like popping beans, and the pirates running in front fell down at once. When the pirates looked up, they saw that the muskets held by the officers and soldiers at the head of the city had not been withdrawn, and the curling green smoke was still wafting at the top of the city!
