On the Jizhen side, there was also a return cannon built behind the Tartar infantry array, the flag changed, and the Tartar cavalry who had been fighting on the flank broke away from the battlefield and led the cavalry to rush forward. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

The battlefield was a mutual action, the cavalry of the Ming army on this side rushed to the position of the trebuchet, and immediately sent cavalry from the Tartar camp to respond, the Tartar cavalry was already outnumbered, and with the assistance of the foot soldiers, they immediately blocked the cavalry led by Ma Yong, and the two sides scuffled.

In the face of the cavalry that was superior to him, the side van formation behind him had no way to provide effective support, and Ma Yong did not dare to fight with the enemy, otherwise he would be eaten directly.

As soon as you make a little contact, you immediately move to the flank, wanting to make a roundabout, but you are a cavalry, and the Tartars are also cavalry, so naturally they will not let the Ming army's horse team get their wish, and they bite again, and the two sides began to fight on the edge of the side car formation.

Jizhen watched as the trebuchet was gradually completed, and the originally tightly knit side car formation opened four openings, revealing the muzzle of the cannon from the inside.

Looking at such a cannon mouth, it is almost a general cannon or even a general cannon, but it is very difficult for such a heavy artillery to shoot immediately, and it is necessary to set up a turret, fix the gun body with ropes and wooden frames, and then reload the cannon.

Carrying such a cannon is for siege purposes, which is used in field warfare, it is really inconvenient, and there is a bastard place, at this time the climate is cold, the ground is hard, and it is not a simple matter to take soil, and I have not made a mound of soil for a long time.

In the end, it was a thousand general manager who came up with an idea, directly unloaded the rampant grain bag, and used this to build a fort, although it was a waste, but it couldn't take care of it so much.

Now it's a matter of competition between the two sides to see if the artillery can fire first, or the trebuchet will fire first.

…………

Compared with the entanglement here, Wang Tong's side is much more simply, and the Huwei Army's cart array "slowly opened" under the joint efforts of the security army and the people. Child.

The fire commanders of the first and second regiments appeared first, they ran out in a platoon of ten, and after eighty paces out of the formation, they made a shooting posture to defend, and the Tartar cavalry and those Han foot soldiers who had suffered did not even dare to approach, and immediately avoided from afar, and then there were spearmen.

Unlike Jizhen's general and Qianzong, who were all on horseback, the regimental commander of the Huwei army also had to fight on foot, and it was the reference point of the array, Li Hutou and Tan Bing, who were all dressed in armor, ran out quickly and ran out "on both sides of the open space in front of the car formation, the trumpeter, the flag bearer and the drummer stood behind him, and the spearmen began to line up the phalanx based on him.

The phalanx of spearmen of each regiment was a thousand men, forty horizontal and twenty-five vertical, and the fire commanders, except for those who were in the forefront of the defense, were also lined up fifty paces from the spearmen.

The battalion officers and team officers shouted shortly, and the sound of reporting the numbers in place was endless, Wang Tong and the more than 100 elites transferred by the guards and horse teams were on the right side of the army formation, and beside them was the artillery team led by Mu En.

The artillery of three catties and below is left in the car formation as protection, and what Mu En brought out this time was fifteen six-catty cannons "Eight nine-catty cannons, although these cannons do not seem to be as thick as the general cannons of Jizhen, and there are artillery trucks to carry them, but each cannon needs at least four horses to drag, and the nine-catty cannons need six horses, which is still because the cannonballs are dragged by other horses.

The number of the artillery corps, including all the artillery and auxiliary personnel, "also cost more than 600 people, and many of the people were paid less than the salaries of the artillerymen, and these people were the auxiliaries of the artillery corps."

The fire-mirrored soldiers who appeared first had already fired sporadically, and the Tartar cavalry always wanted to get closer, and the fire guns rang out, "Drive these people away."

The watchtowers in the Huwei military chariot array had been advanced, and the guards of the wingmen continued to pass on the news they had received through the messengers, and the Tartars also began to mobilize troops and horses.

The number of cavalry rushing to this side from this formation is already more than that of the Jizhen side, since the Huwei army is teasing the field battle, then take out the superior forces and completely break this side.

Moreover, there are about 3,000 cavalry from the Tartar main formation, detouring towards the right side of the Huwei army, since the main force came out of the military formation, "the military formation must be empty, send cavalry to break the formation" This is also a good time.

The snow has melted, and the land has been trampled by men and horses in some places where there is no snow, and the dust is up to the sky, but the weather is fine and the sun is good.

The spearmen of the Huwei Army are all wearing Huwei plate armor, helmets, face armor, elbow pads, and shin guards, although these armors have been blackened and treated with anti-lure and are very dull, but in the sun, they still shimmer with metallic light.

After the two square formations were completed, the surrounding Tartars were obviously quiet, what kind of army is it, can the foot soldiers have such armor to wear, can such armor and arrows shoot through?

………………

"Why are there so many artillery pieces on the side of the Ming Dog Forbidden Army, on the eighth day of Hohe, the cavalry under my account also gave you two thousand people, it takes time to set up artillery, while the artillery of the Ming army is not erected, you go and break him!

The son of the monk Guleng Khan, Talik, was the commander of the Tatar soldiers and horses, and the monk Guleng Khan was just silent and watched from the sidelines, and many of his actions were different from the traditions on the steppe, when the old Khan was sober, the soldiers and horses were still in direct charge as usual, and they were not handed over to the eldest son, or even let the eldest son interfere.

But the monk Guleng had been ignored by me like this, and when he became the king of Khan, his eldest son Pullik was appointed as the main general, and Pullik made a lot of contributions to the expedition of Mobei and several large parts of the Western Regions, which proved that his vision was right.

Hearing Pullik's order, Huhe Band bowed down on the horse to receive the order on the eighth day, and another cavalry was put into the battlefield, Pullik looked sideways at the indifferent monk Guleng Khan, and said in a low voice: "Father Khan, the fierce battle is about to begin, Father Khan's golden body is still not on the battlefield, please Father Khan return to the city to preside over the overall situation, there are still many Han people in the city, and the sons are worried that their minds are unstable!" ”

Monk Duguleng Khan nodded, and said in a hoarse voice: "The Ming army is coming from afar, and the grain and grass are carried with the army, we don't need to entangle with them for too long.

"Father Khan taught me!"

Pulling Lik respectfully bent down on his horse to listen to the training, the monk Du Guleng's expression was a little haggard, nodded, dismounted with the support of the guards, and then got into a gorgeous carriage, and headed in the direction of the Naturalization City under the support of the cavalry.

"The Great Khan doesn't seem to be very remorseful"

"I heard that the Great Khan cried bitterly after drinking last night, saying that Altan Khan (the first generation of the Great Khan of the Altan Army) was in power, and the Ming army did not dare to take a step out of the side, but now he is here, but he was beaten by the Ming army to the city of Guihua......

There were cavalrymen whispering there, and they were stared back sternly by the generals in front of them, and they immediately did not dare to speak.

……………………

At first, the firecrackers fired sporadically, but the sound of the fireware became more and more intense, and the Tartars did not give the Huwei army time to complete the group.

After retreating slightly, they gathered in formation, and they pounced in formation, without the shelter of the wooden wall of the cart array, even those Han foot soldiers felt that they had the possibility of victory, and this time they finally did not need the slashing of the Tartar cavalry to drive away, and they also leaned forward tremblingly.

"Skirmishers!! Skirmishers return!! ”

The battalion characters on the right side of the fire mirror soldier queue were shouting at the top of their voices, and the Huwei arms commanders who were scattered everywhere ran back to the queue in a hurry, and the fire commanders lined up in front of them in a large horizontal line of sixty people, covering the spearmen behind them, and there was no sporadic fire and blunt shooting, and the Tartar army's ranks were almost gathered and began to pounce forward.

"Drive the Han people to rush in front, the Han people rush to the front, the cavalry to follow, the front falls, the back rushes up, the front does not rush, the back immediately slashes, rush to the Ming army, their huahua frame is useless!!"

The order was passed loudly in the Tartar army, the Mongolian cavalry on the horse shouted loudly, and the Han foot soldiers shouted in unison, and rushed forward again.

In their impression, it is one thing to rely on the fortifications of the city to shoot, without cover, exposed to the enemy in the field, this combat shooting is another thing, maybe the Ming soldiers even fire locks, unable to hold steady, or will enter the range of indiscriminate fire, and when they reach the front of the shooting, they can no longer shoot.

Everyone cheered themselves up with these words, howled and charged.

The officers and soldiers of the fire soldiers looked at the Han infantry soldiers rushing in front of them with indifferent eyes, now there is no obstacle in their hearts, these people are willing to be the swords of the Tartars, they don't want to resist, they don't deserve pity and sympathy, the commander of the fire commander is engrossed in judging the distance and waiting for the order.

This time it was closer, seventy paces, and they could see that the foot soldiers who rushed to the front were already a little excited, and they thought that the Ming army's fire commander was out of order.

"Fire!!"

The general shouted, and then the shout and the rest of the voices were drowned out under the roar of the exploding fire mirror, such a horizontal formation, such a density of firepower, there was no one who could rush over on the right front.

Screaming, falling, dying, and repeating the process, the first and second platoons retreat to the back of the queue to reload their ammunition nervously, while the rest of the platoons run back to the sides of the spearmen according to the pre-arranged arrangement, where they reload their ammunition.

The firearms lined up for a total of seven rounds, the foot soldiers were almost swept away, and the remnants finally realized that there was an even more terrible place of death ahead, and began to flee in all directions regardless of it, but after their attrition, within a hundred paces, there was no hindrance, and in front of the Tartar cavalry was the spearmen of the Tiger Army.

"Flat spear, rejection of horses!!"

The general of the Tiger Army roared and ordered!
