With the retreat of the remnants of the Qing soldiers, Pang Gang ordered the bird soldiers who had retreated behind the pikemen to follow, thanks to the invention of flintlock pistols and fixed gunpowder, the bird soldiers could finally throw away the heavy arquebuses and cumbersome firing procedures, and the simplification of the firing procedures also greatly increased the flexibility of the bird soldiers, so that when Pang Gang's order had just been issued, the bird soldiers could quickly run to the back of the thorn chariot and shoot forward.

"Bang Bang Bang"

As the gunshots rang out like fried beans, the Qing soldiers who fled backwards fell forward one by one, and they obtained one of the most humiliating deaths for a soldier from ancient times to the present, that is, to be killed from behind by the enemy.

"Shame, this is the shame of our Great Qing Kingdom!"

Sakhalian, who was watching the battle from behind, was so angry that his face turned blue, when did the invincible Qing warriors actually expose their backs on the battlefield and let the enemies kill them one by one, this kind of thing was unimaginable before, but today he actually happened alive in front of his eyes.

Saharen's body was trembling, but it wasn't anger, it was fear. He knew very well that with the annihilation of this Niu Lu's army, his life had also entered the countdown, and Lord Amur, who was watching the battle behind him, would not let go of his defeated general.

He looked left and right at the more than 200 cavalry behind him and the more than a dozen Baibaya soldiers behind him, these people were all iron cavalry brought out by him, and now that his fate has come to an end, then let these two hundred loyal subordinates die for themselves.

Sakhalian slowly drew his scimitar and raised it high, and the cavalry behind him also followed their Niu Lu's movements, drew their weapons, and prepared to follow their Niu Lu to a glorious death.

A slightly sad voice sounded in the cavalry ranks, "Warriors of the Great Qing Kingdom, let me go today, your Niulu Saharian will take you to glory together"

"Bastard!" Before Sakharen could finish his words, a gloomy voice sounded beside Sakhalian, and then a horsewhip immediately struck Sakhalian's body without a head.

"You stupid pig, even if you lost one of our Niu Lu's troops, do you still want to take this only remaining warrior to death? How many warriors in my Great Qing Kingdom can afford to squander you like this! ”

Amur scolded Sakharen with a horsewhip, Sakharen did not dare to resist, just jumped off the horse and knelt on the ground and cried bitterly, Amur's strength was so great that even the horsewhip made of raw cowhide was broken by him after dozens of whips.

It wasn't until Amur gasped and rode on his horse and threw the broken whip to the ground that Sakharen sobbed and cried: "My lord, it's not that the minions don't do their best, but that the firearms of the Ming army are so powerful that their firearms can shoot through the armor of the warriors at a distance of thirty or fifty paces, and so many of our heroic warriors were shot by them without even seeing their faces!" The slave doesn't ask the adult to spare the slave's life, the slave just imagines that my warrior of the Great Qing Kingdom died in front of the battle, so that the slave will be blind. ”

Seeing the rough appearance of Sakhalian crying like a child, Rao couldn't help but soften his heart with a gloomy and irritable surname like Amur, but when he thought of this stupid guy just now, he actually wanted to take more than 200 warriors to his death, and a nameless fire rose in his heart: "You idiot, I won't stop you if you want to send you to death, but you shouldn't have to let hundreds of warriors accompany you to your life, I can't spare you for this alone, you should decide on your own for the sake of you following me for many years." ”

Sakhalian looked up at Amur's gloomy face, knowing that it was irretrievable, he cried and said: "My lord, the slave who is dying does not dare to ask you for anything, only that you can take care of the slave's family after the slave is gone, and the slave is thinking of your great kindness even in the ground." ”

Amur said with a gloomy face: "Don't worry, your family will take care of you after you leave, you can leave with confidence!" ”

"Thank you, sir!"

Sakhalian knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Amur three times, knocking blood on his forehead, then he turned on his horse, raised his whip and let out a loud cry in his mouth.

"Drive!"

Sakhalian rushed towards the Ming army's chariot formation alone, and everyone, including Amur, couldn't bear to look at Sakhalian's lonely and sad figure, and after a while, there was a sound like fried beans not far away, and then a heavy sound of falling horses sounded, and then there was no sound.

Amur stared at the formation of the Ming army not far away, and gritted his teeth with hatred in his heart, originally thinking that with his more than 1,500 warriors, it was enough to eat this Ming army of only more than 3,000 people. He was very clear about the combat strength of the Ming army, although he only had five Niu Lu and more than 1,500 people, but he was confident that he could fight hard with the Ming army of seven or eight thousand people without falling behind. But he miscalculated this time, he never expected that he would be pecked blind by the wild goose in the end, and the Qing warriors who attacked a Duniulu in just a short period of time were gone, which made him go back and explain to Abbateybele, who was besieging the Texas capital.

"No, you can't just go back, Amur gritted his teeth and stared at the Ming army's car formation in front of him, the circular defensive formation seemed to him like a monster with a bloody mouth open at the moment, and now he was laughing at him, the Manchurian Baturu."

Amur, who had been holding back for a long time, finally came up with a solution, "Isn't the Ming army on the opposite side powerful with firearms, then I don't need to attack with foot soldiers, I will use the encirclement and cavalry to deal with you!" ”

Siege camp cavalry archery is a great housekeeping skill of the Manchurians, this skill is also learned by the Manchu people when hunting wild boars in the white mountains and black waters, this method is very simple, that is, the use of cavalry with superb horsemanship around the target circle, and then in the high-speed movement using superb archery to shoot the arrow to the enemy, so that the enemy can only stare at the enemy, this tactic is called the camp cavalry shooting by the Manchurians.

As early as 300 years ago, the Mongols dominated the world for nearly a hundred years by virtue of this tactic, but the Mongols called this tactic "Mangu", and the Romans called this tactic "Sabbatical archery", that is, the cavalry archers fled while shooting arrows to the enemy behind or around them, which was also the magic weapon of the Mongols who were rampant in the world three hundred years ago. And now it has been turned out of the horns by the Manchus and regarded as a treasure, but the Ming army that the Manchus have always encountered are weak and soft persimmons, and they have also achieved many results that they think are very brilliant.

As soon as Amur gave the order, the remaining more than 1,100 Qing soldiers immediately had more than 600 cavalry mounted their horses, and they galloped towards the front chariot array under the leadership of three Niu Lu, and the rumbling sound of horses' hooves made the earth tremble, and they rushed towards the chariot array in front.

Pang Gang, who was standing in the center of the circle, watched coldly as a large number of cavalry rushed towards his position, and wondered a little in his heart, why did these Tartars not repent after suffering such a big loss, and actually wanted to use cavalry to attack the military formation protected by thorny chariots.

After a while, the cavalry stopped rushing forward when they were about three hundred paces away, but began to scatter and run. When Pang Gang saw such a scene, he snorted softly and coldly, "It turns out that they want to use those Mongol tactics to deal with my chariot formation, don't they know that such tactics are useless against the army that has already been prepared?" ”

Although his mouth said so, Pang Gang did not dare to slack off, he gave a few more orders to the drummer next to him, and the drummer who received the order immediately used all his strength to beat the big drum erected on the car.

"Knock Knock Knock"

The heavy drum sound seemed to shake everyone's hearts, and after hearing the drum, the Ming army that was on guard all took action. Under the orders of their respective officers, the four thousand sergeants were orderly placed in their own way. A thousand bird-gunned soldiers quickly came to the rear of the thorn chariot and circled evenly, and the sword and shield bearers who had been protecting the two wings quickly came to the bird-gunned soldiers and raised their shields to guard the bird-gunned heads. The pikemen also circled around the chariot formation and crouched behind the sword and shield men, seeking maximum protection.

When the drums sounded for the third time, everyone stood still in their own position, and the birds, pikemen, and sword and shield men fought in their own positions! The 1,000 sword and shield men suddenly shouted in unison: "Shoot, shoot, shoot" The sound was deafening, and they shouted three times in a row, and then stood still. The sword and shield soldiers behind them also shouted loudly after setting up their shields: "Protect, protect, protect" and then resolutely stood still.

The pikemen also crouched behind the sword and shield soldiers, and immediately after that, they sang "Suddenly, Suddenly, Suddenly" three times in unison, also standing still.

Soon, the baggage soldiers in the innermost column also raised their heavy shields to protect everyone, and then all the Ming troops finished the formation, and they sang in unison "Fight, stand, fight!" ”

After the entire formation was changed, all the sergeants shouted in unison, "kill, kill, kill" three times. Pang Gang's Central Military Headquarters sounded again, and the entire car formation was immediately silent, and all the sergeants were waiting for it. Not a single sound came out.

When the cavalry of the Qing army rushed to sixty paces, which could use the momentum of the war horse to throw the arrow into the close chariot formation, Pang Gang had already commanded the sergeants to put out an iron bucket formation, and under the protection of the two layers of thorn chariots in front and countless round shields and even heavy shields, the entire Ming army had been protected as tightly as a tortoise shell.

At this time, these cavalrymen had already shot the first wave of arrows, and with the help of horsepower, they shot diagonally towards the sky from sixty paces away, and the heavy arrows drew arcs in the sky and flew towards the Ming army's chariot formation
