Chapter Seventy-Six: Sniper Cavalry Company
The two cavalry companies led by Wang Tiehammer were blocked soon after passing Xushan, and the Niu Lu where Yu Xuezhong was originally going to participate in the siege of the cavalry battalion, but was temporarily transferred by Saltu to intercept the reinforcements of the Ming army......
Wang Tiehammer's two companies galloped ten miles to arrive at the formation of the Houjin armor soldiers in the official road of Xushan, in front of which was a shield shaking the dazzling sun, and behind countless hidden guns and swords, just like a moving forest, there were vests on the left and right wings, especially the formation on the right wing were the elite of the double-layer iron armor, Wang Tiehammer immediately fell into a dilemma, the order given to him by the adult was to break through the blockade of the Tartars in one fell swoop and join Zhao Longbu, but now the situation is that the formation of the Tartars is too thick, he can't rush through the two companies at all, and this terrain is narrow, The cavalry came and went like the wind, and after a while, Wang Tiehammer also made a decision immediately, dragging the Tartars to death, and waiting for the Iron Fist Brigade to come over and make a final decision, but if Zhao Long and they couldn't hold on, the Tartars would immediately concentrate all their forces, free up their hands to pack up their two companies with all their might, and if they were lucky, they could sneak back to Gaizhou before the Iron Fist Brigade arrived, which was a dilemma.
The sound of suona sounded, and the soldiers of the two companies immediately dismounted and discharged the battle formation, and rushed towards each other, as the flintlock pistols of the soldiers in the front row fired, the front row of the Houjin team was like the grass blown by the wind, and countless armored soldiers fell to the ground, and a large group of blood spurted out of their bodies. Quickly dyeing the ground red, this sudden blow caused the other armor soldiers to be thrown into chaos, and the shield array that Fu Cha, who was in charge of commanding, painstakingly designed against the Ming army's firearms, was shattered. Grelan was lucky to stand in the back rows, but the shrill screams and the whistling sound of lead crackling still made him deaf for a while, Grelan looked at himself in horror before relieving himself, the parts on his body were all there, and there were no blood holes inexplicably, this discovery made him settle down, but the others suffered a huge blow. The entire queue came to a standstill.
"Death to those who retreat!" Master Fucha's roar rang out, and Grelan finally remembered his duty and patrolled around with his sword. Many of the armor soldiers regained their composure under the threat of the white armorers.
"Master, does it matter?" Just as Greyland was making his rounds, a hunched auxiliary raised his head and looked at him with concern.
Grayland's serious face relaxed. Chao Yu Xuezhong nodded. Approached and lowered his voice: "Hearing the suona sound of the Ming army, lower your head." ”
Yu Xuezhong looked at the armor soldiers who were writhing in a pool of blood with a pale face, and nodded again and again in a panic.
At this moment, the sharp suona sound sounded again, and the soldiers of the second row of the Ming army walked up, and there was another volley of muskets, and the entire official road was full of gunsmoke, and Yu Xuezhong fell down several times. His ears were full of roars, and he didn't even have time to wipe the blood of the people around him on his face and nose. Yu Xuezhong's mind was blank, and he followed the figure in front of him blankly, he walked in front of him, and he stopped when he stopped in front, and his two eyes searched for the master's figure everywhere blankly, but unfortunately Greenland didn't know where to throw it for a long time.
Later, the golden armor soldiers plucked up their courage in the howl of the warlords, they flattened the spears and broadswords in their hands, and rushed towards the Ming army with a roar, but there were still many stunned armor soldiers who stopped in place like Yu Xuezhong, and the whole formation became a rectangle. After surviving two rounds of salvos, the golden armor soldiers quickly approached the Ming army with the cover of arrows and crossbows, and many soldiers with blades also poured out of the Ming army's ranks.
But soon, these armor soldiers found that the hand-to-hand fighting Ming army was also not at a disadvantage, and the Houjin had too many victories against the Ming army, and repeatedly won more with less, which brought them a huge psychological advantage, so although they lost a lot before the battle, they still had the courage to fight against the Ming army instead of choosing to retreat, but soon they remembered the difference of this Ming army, but it was too late, the Ming army first used a fire gun to hit a heavy one, and then dragged them to the death with hand-to-hand combat, and wanted to retreat unless they could abandon all the armor soldiers on the battlefield in hand-to-hand combat. The commanders of the two Niu Lu of Houjin are both veterans who have been in battle for a long time, and as soon as they saw that the frontal hand-to-hand combat was likely to collapse, they immediately sent a reserve, and the white armor soldiers went up at the first time, and at the same time, the two wings sent more than 200 cavalry to clamp down on the Ming army and stabilize the situation.
Grelan followed a group of white-armored soldiers who had just dismounted and rushed up waving their blades under the leadership of Fendepa, and after running for a short time, he seemed to hear Yu Xuezhong calling him, but Grelan didn't have time to look up, his eyes were staring at the Ming army who was more than thirty steps on the opposite side, and his hand was tightly gripping the hilt of the sword.
Just rushed to the front of Greeland's heel pain, he fell softly, at this moment a black thing shaved from his scalp, slashed on the armor of a person next to him, and a few dazzling sparks appeared, Gleelan saw in a panic that the armor soldier who had just stood up in front of him was dug into his body by several iron pickaxes, blood splattered his face, the armor soldier's eyes were wide open, and his pupils quickly dimmed, he hung softly on a few iron pickaxes, and Gree's soul flew away with his hands and feet, It took me a long time to climb behind and find that there was a swarthy thing sticking out of my instep.
As soon as Gree Lan stretched out his trembling hand to pull out the thistle nailed to his instep, a whirlwind suddenly blew above his head, and Gree Lan screamed and struggled to roll to the left for more than ten consecutive rolls.
While!
A swarthy shovel slashed into the soil, the Ming army heyed, pulled out the shovel and turned around, and smiled fiercely at the ground Greeland, Grelan was so frightened that he quickly climbed up behind with his hands and feet, the Ming army chased after him with a shovel, but when he was about to catch up, he fell into the middle of several armor soldiers, and suddenly the shouts of killing were endless, Gree Lan only saw countless big feet turning around him, and the large cloud of dust blurred his eyes, A few feet even unceremoniously stepped on the faces and bodies of the corpses.
Yes!
A man who looked like an archer spurted blood and fell beside Greeland, his neck was almost cut off by a shovel, and he was softly put on the side, this Ming army was burly, skilled, and did not have the slightest advantage under the siege of several armor soldiers, and the armor soldiers besieging him were mostly with long-handled weapons, which could not be used in this small space, and were forced to retreat again and again by the Ming army, Grayland knew that his companion was forced to retreat and was surrounded by the Ming army behind him was a dead end, he instantly killed the red eye, picked up a knife next to him and stabbed it towards the thigh of the Ming army.
Disheveled!
The Ming army was defenseless for a while, the figure was slow under the pain, and soon it was penetrated by a few spears, and after those armor soldiers withdrew the spears, the corpse of the Ming army fell to the ground, and Grelan breathed a sigh of relief, and quickly pulled out the iron thorns on his feet, in this tense environment, he didn't feel a trace of pain at all, but before he could stand up, there was another roar of fire, and several armor soldiers who were besieging the Ming army just now fell to Gerlan's side with blood holes, and there was a scream that was not dead for a while, releasing the desperate fear in his heart, Grelan couldn't stand it anymore, he screamed and got up, regardless of the companion stretched out his helpless hand to him, screamed and limped backwards, so fast that even a few chasing Ming soldiers looked at his back and ate ashes, Gree Lan hurriedly turned around, the injured companion was stabbed into the body by several spears at the same time, he trembled violently like a mad demon a few times and then tilted his head, where did Gree Lan dare to turn back when he saw this tragic situation, he opened his mouth and pierced desperately, and finally returned to his own people's formation, However, what made Grelan desperate was that there were many people in silver and white armor in front of him who were slashing and killing those companions who were howling and running away, driving the soldiers to the side of the Ming army, Grelan fell to the ground with a soft body, although he was also a white armor soldier, but he was hit by them and it was difficult to escape a knife, there were fierce Ming soldiers in front, and there were even more fierce companions in the back, Grelan fell to the ground in despair and howled, but he didn't know what to do.
"Master?" Just when Grelan was desperate, Yu Xuezhong's voice suddenly sounded, and Gree Lan looked up and saw Yu Xuezhong's black and familiar face, Greeland's heart warmed, and said, "There's something nailed to my foot, you come and hold me!" ”
Yu Xuezhong dragged him behind several corpses, and then Gree Lan felt a sharp pain in the soles of his feet, and he gritted his teeth and took off his deerskin shoes with the help of Xuezhong, a big black hole was exposed, and it was still bleeding.
"Tie it up for me!" Greyland didn't dare to look at his wounds.
Yu Xuezhong's face was also pale with fright, he tore off a cloth bag and tied up Grelan's feet tightly.
"What about your team?" Greenland didn't know how Yu Xuezhong escaped back.
Yu Xuezhong shook his head and whispered: "They are all scattered, they have been killed by the white armor soldiers, and most of them are lying there."
As Yu Xuezhong's fingers looked, the corpses of countless soldiers of the Ming army and Houjin were piled up in the place where the two armies were fighting, and the killing shouts were the loudest in that place, and both sides invariably invested more people to try to fight for control of that battlefield after the trial.
At this moment, the horn sounded, and Gree's face changed, and he said to Xuezhong: "Give me that spear."
Yu Xuezhong hesitated: "Master, you are injured like this, why don't you rest for a while?" ”
Ge Lilan said angrily: "Lord Zhang Jing is summoning Bai Jia, if you don't kill your head, you will die, and if you don't go, you will die."
Yu Xuezhong didn't dare to persuade more, raised his head and said with a resolute face: "Master, I will help you" (to be continued......
