Chapter 220: The Tiger Pounces on the Rabbit
Two or three buckets under the order. He was a forehead and married a daughter of Huang Taiji.
Compared with the Eight Banners of Manchuria with thousands of nearly 10,000 dings per flag, there are only more than 1,000 dings of one banner in Mongolia of the Eight Banners, and there are five dings and one armor, so the same solid mountain Ezhen, Engetu and Buyandai are much lighter than Dudu.
This time, the general Yue Tuo commanded the right wing army, Du Du was still his deputy, and Engetu and Buyandai could not be compared, although the two of them each had a golden dragon Qin, and the armored soldiers under their command, but only a few hundred. Most of the unarmored sergeants in leather robes were porters.
Looking at the silent appearance of the Ming army on the other side, Du Du's eyes also flashed with surprise, and his intuition told him that this Ming army was not simple, but it was limited to that. His warriors with red flags in the Qing Dynasty crisscrossed all parts of the Ming Dynasty, and naturally they would not be afraid of thousands of Ming soldiers on the opposite side, and in his mind, it would be a matter of moments to defeat the car and artillery battalions of the Ming army on the opposite side. The sentry told him that the Ming army on the opposite side was flying the king-shaped banner, the king-shaped banner? Du Du's heart moved, and he shouted a few days ago to Najia Lazhang Jing Huda, and shouted: "Huda minions, you can see clearly, the Ming army on the other side, but the Ming ** team that defeated you a few days ago?" ”
Seeing the contemptuous and disdainful gazes floating around, Najia Lazhang Jinghuda was still sweating profusely despite the cold weather, and he tried his best to look at Wang Doujun. "Like, like yes." ”
Du Du shouted: "Yes or no? ”
Najia Lazhang Jinghuda hurriedly said: "Yes, yes, the Ming army of the ministry is sharp, and Lord Belle should be careful." ”
Du Du is the first son of Zhu Ying, who thinks that he has been fighting for decades and is brave and invincible, how can he take Huda's admonition to heart? On the other side, the Ming army ate the bear's heart and leopard guts, and dared to bring a few thousand people to Tongzhou, and if they didn't kill him, they wouldn't be able to show the power of their own Qing Dynasty with red flags!
Therefore, as soon as he received the report of the sentinel cavalry, Du Du quickly gathered the soldiers and horses in Tongzhou and Zhangjiawan to come, of course, he also wondered in his heart, the Ming army there were only a few thousand soldiers, of course, it was impossible to recover any city. Could it be that they came to grab food? This thought flashed through Du Du's mind. If so. Therefore, a team of infantry armor and horse armor soldiers are all quick to sort out the arrows in their pots.
They were all expressionless, not caring at all about the upcoming battle, these Qing soldiers did not know how many battles they had experienced, and of course they would not think that the Ming army on the opposite side was a big deal. Looking forward to it, all the people I saw were full of arrogant faces, as well as the thick evil in each other's eyes.
Du Du's subordinate Naba Yala Poison Zhang Jing was also ordered to come out. After receiving his own Bayala camp mat, he waited for an opportunity to break the formation.
The Baya Ladung Zhangjing privately thought that Bei Le Ye was making a big fuss, and there were only a few thousand Ming troops, and almost all the armored soldiers went into battle. He also wanted the most elite Bayala sergeant to participate in the attack, but of course he wouldn't say anything, and led his hundreds of Bayala soldiers to prepare quickly.
The sergeants under his command have iron helmets and iron armor, and the armor leaves are painted with silver and shiny white paint, so the Baya soldiers have the title of mercury army. These sergeants sorted out their heavy weapons, and their faces were even more nonchalant, believing that the battle that was waiting for the meeting must be a short, boring, skirmish.
Maybe they won't be needed at all, they just need to do their job as a team overseer.
In addition to the about 3,000 armor-clad soldiers, there were all kinds of auxiliaries and 6,000 or 7,000 followers on the side of the Qing army's large array, and Du Du selected 2,000 auxiliary soldiers with horses and experience in battlefield fighting, so that they could follow behind the soldiers of each armor, wearing cotton armor without inlaid iron, carrying swords, guns, bows and arrows and other weapons, fighting with them and strengthening their momentum.
In this way, there were 5,000 Qing soldiers in the war, most of whom were armored soldiers.
Du Du suddenly despised the Ming army on the opposite side, but after many years of combat experience, he was not ambiguous in the arrangement of the battle request, and with a brave army of 5,000 against a 3,000 Ming army, he would definitely be able to go down with one drum. He has a proud name for this trick, which is called Tiger Fighting Rabbit.
In the sound of the horn, the Qing army slowly gathered together, and from Wang Dou's side, there were large ocean flags.
"These soldiers have finally been dispatched
In the sound of the horn on the opposite side, thousands of Qing horsemen slowly rode their horses, and most of the Qing army was still far away from their own side at this time, so they only controlled the horses and slowed down, and did not charge ().
Seeing the other party dispatch, Wang Dou secretly breathed a sigh of relief, the taste of waiting was uncomfortable, but things finally started, and it was nothing more than that. The banner from Diao Dou showed that the Qing soldiers were coming directly in front of the chariot formation at this time, and the number of them was about five or six thousand, and it was estimated that half of the armored soldiers were inside.
Counting the number of armor on both sides, in the comparison of strength, the opponent has the advantage in numbers, the advantage of their own defense, and the car array artillery. For Wang Dou, this is the first battle of equal strength and equal strength, if he can survive this test, it will be a earth-shaking change in the military spirit and combat strength of his army.
Wang Dou stood motionless in Yuan Rong's car, but unfortunately there was no telescope, otherwise the other party's situation would have been seen more clearly.
When he was almost a mile away from the chariot formation, Wang Dou saw that the horse steps of the Qing soldiers were gradually speeding up, and their horse team was spreading wider in front of and on the left and right, and it seemed that the front was full of cavalry, full of horses and human heads, and a banner like a cloud, twisting desperately with the wind.
As soon as these Qing horses dispersed like this, there seemed to be a compelling momentum, overwhelmingly coming towards them. It is said that there are more than 10,000 people, and there is no edge on the king's edge, and the position occupied by a horse is as many as a few people, and thousands of cavalry charge into battle, which is more powerful than tens of thousands of infantry charging.
Wang Dou heard the heavy panting of the generals beside him, he subconsciously looked at everyone, all the sergeants were waiting hard, they stared, looking straight at that side, as if they wanted to pull the Qing soldiers off their horses.
Wang Dou also saw Zhao Shan, the officer of the artillery team in front, with his hands on his hips and his body twisting back desperately, Wang Dou couldn't see his face, and he didn't know what his expression was.
"Oh.
After the Qing army's formation, a desolate horn sounded, and suddenly the thousands of Qing cavalry accelerated their horses, the sound of hooves was like thunder, and the five thousand cavalry rushed like a flood of the embankment.
