As soon as the Houjin soldiers entered two hundred paces, the Dengzhou cavalry of the three bureaus began to ride their horses and run, Tan Shen personally led the troops, and the direction was facing the Jiannu cavalry on the flank of the Jiannu infantry, he was bent on catching those cavalry, and at the beginning he used jogging and quickly entered the fast run, reducing the time of approaching. (/baojian/baojian)

The Dengzhou cavalry of the two bureaus opened the wide front, still in a three-line formation, and rushed away with an indomitable momentum, and the rangers on both sides of the dog fight in the field scattered one after another.

The Jiannu cavalry deployed elsewhere began to move in this direction, ready to entangle the cavalry, Zhu Guobin left the reserve and came to the place of the second group of cavalry, and personally grasped the fighters, but he would not put the second group into advance unless he had to, so that the entire right flank would only be left with a detachment and a bureau of cavalry, and it was easy for a certain group of Jiannu's cavalry to rush into the rear of the formation.

Because the distance was too close, the Wendeng cavalry came quickly, the two hundred Jiannu cavalry really did not avoid, chose to collide head-on, three rounds of people on their backs and turned over the collision, the Jiannu cavalry lost more than thirty percent, just like the first time Jinzhou encountered the blue flag, the formation was chaotic, and the leader of the Jiala Baya Lama was also killed, and the whole team immediately lost command.

Zhu Guobin immediately released a bureau of cavalry, taking advantage of the chaos of the group of Jiannu to give another heavy blow, intercepting and killing some of the cavalry that was not as good as retreating, basically disintegrating the threat of this cavalry, although the Houjin soldiers knew the strength of the Dengzhou cavalry formation, but they did not expect to have such explosive power, and two cavalry that were ready to encircle and suppress Tan Shen immediately changed direction and rushed to the infantry flank.

The first group of Dengzhou cavalry also lost dozens of people, they left the corpses of men and horses all over the ground and continued to run south, and the two groups of Jiannu cavalry in the rear immediately surrounded the past, followed the Dengzhou cavalry that ran past, and waited for them to lose speed when they surrounded and melee.

The cavalry bureau that Zhu Guobin had just released began to move forward to respond, and Tan Shen's men and horses ran to the bottom of the hill. Turning to the west and starting to retreat, the Houjin soldiers accelerated to intercept, the Dengzhou cavalry did not fight with them, but just fled with their heads bored, and the bureau that Zhu Guobin had just released just arrived at the same time, accelerated a sprint, and defeated a group of Jiannu, covering the retreat of the first group, but the first group was still partially blocked. Rushing left and right on the west flank, the cavalry battle began to be chaotic.

Zhu Guobin knew that according to this style of play, the cavalry would not be able to tell the winner for a while, so he turned his attention to the infantry, and the battle line was very open. The contact is large, and there are no tricks, and the winner will be decided in a very short time......

The Houjin infantry entered one hundred and fifty paces, and the skirmishers entered one hundred paces, and they had already suffered two rounds of shotshots, plus the solid bullets in front, and the total losses amounted to seventy or eighty men.

Later, the Golden Skirmishers began to throw light arrows. Brother Guan lowered his head and covered the door with the brim of his front hat, and the light arrows thrown from afar landed in the queue with a clanging sound. Only the musketeers heard the cries of being hit, and for the ironclad, a light arrow a hundred paces away was almost like tickling.

A small number of Ming army sentries rode on both flanks and fired heavy arrows at the Jiannu stragglers, but the large array behind Houjin did not delay. Continuing to move forward quickly, they did not have time to slowly spend time with the Ming army. The Dengzhou infantry at the Niangnianggong landing ground was hurrying behind behind.

The rate of fire of the four-pounder guns reached three shots per minute, and each round projected one hundred and forty-four one-tael lead bullets, sweeping the Jiannu skirmishers in different directions, many of them fell to the ground with blood all over their bodies, and some people in the Houjin Front behind were also hit by scattershots, and they had lost seventy or eighty men under the long-range blows of the two four-pounder guns.

Zhong Laosi had a light arrow stuck in his arm, but his eyes were fixed on Jiannu's step formation, and there were also Mr. Qian, Deputy President Qian and another general next to him, Deputy Qian always came to the front row to direct the two division detachments to fire a salvo, and several people turned a blind eye to the light arrows flying around them.

Zhong Lao Si said with a grin: "Jiannu go fast, the detachment will fight the stragglers first, sweep away some of the stragglers, and after beating us, we will insert meat skewers, we must take the initiative to approach, otherwise Jiannu will take twenty or thirty steps to come with a few rounds of bow and armor-piercing arrows, Lao Tzu can't bear it, I will meet it, they are only enough to shoot two rounds at most." ”

Mr. Qian agreed, he had a general impression of Zhong Laosi, but he still knew Zhong Laosi's level, he turned his head to Zhong Laosi, "It's just that the detachment of the fourth company doesn't have it, the firepower of your detachment of the third company should be towards the west, and the Jiannu on the outside is a threat to the cavalry, so it's good to knock out some." ”

Zhong Laosi nodded, and after the few people finished speaking, they each retreated to their respective phalanx arrangements, waiting for the detachment to meet the enemy after firing a volley.

The Houjin stragglers soon entered seventy paces, and the howls of Houjin officers at all levels in the large formation behind them rang out again and again.

Zhong Laosi returned to his position of the general flag, in the rear position of the junction of the two phalanxes, in front of the two companies of flank musketeers, these soldiers were next to each other, using flintlock muskets without bayonets, and followed the phalanx, which was very different from the freely moving detachments, and their main task was to export firepower, kill and wound the enemy, and cover the attack of the spearmen to meet the enemy.

Felt out the short gun and finally checked the fire door, and after inserting it back into his waist, the guard handed over a shield, Zhong Laosi shook his hand impatiently, the guard knew his temper, so he had to use his left arm in the two rings behind the shield to protect him, Zhong Laosi pulled him away and said unhappily: "Don't block my excitement." ”

As soon as the words fell, the front 150 flintlock muskets burst into a row, and the artillery also fired a round of scattered shells, and then the detachment retreated from the gap, and Zhong Lao Si divided them into two teams, stood in the phalanx of two companies and began to load nervously.

Behind Qianzongqi, the horn sounded, Zhong Laosi turned his head to the drum and trumpeter and said: "Normal pace, blow the forward trumpet." ”……

A forward horn sounded, Brother Guan lifted the spear and erected it on the right side, after the drum sounded sharply, Brother Guan stepped on the drum and began to advance, and the roar of Jiannu's steps on the opposite side was clearly audible.

Jiannu was afraid of artillery and muskets, and Dengzhou Town was worried about Jiannu's close-range shots, and both sides wanted to enter the crucial hand-to-hand combat as much as possible.

There was no detachment in front of him, and more than 20 Jiannu stragglers in his field of vision fell in the salvo just now, and the straggler line was even more scattered, and some people in the large formation fell and were directly stepped on by the people behind.

The Houjin stragglers were a little panicked, but they had approached fifty paces and began to use heavy arrows. Some of the fierce ones continued to advance, armor-piercing cones and bows in their hands, and rushed twenty paces away.

There was a burst of heavy firing from both flanks of the phalanx, and the musketeers of the phalanx began to fire in turn. The front row fired and then retreated, and the second row stepped forward to shoot, like Gustav's phalanx musketeers, who were able to reload ammunition and provide continuous fire support while advancing with the spear formation, under the rigorous training of Dengzhou Town.

Each company phalanx consisted of ninety-six musketeers, generally divided into two wings of forty-eight each, with six rows of eight columns on each wing. The flintlock musketeers were very closely arranged, but in order to maintain the density of the phalanx, all the musketeers of the outermost two companies were placed on the outside, and there was only an interval of eight men between the spear phalanxes. The spears on both sides were able to control zhì and prevent a large number of enemies from entering the rear of the battle.

The long phalanx rolled forward, with volleys of muskets on both flanks and in the middle, like a wriggling monster spewing through the clouds.

There were more and more Houjin skirmishers in front of them, they drew their bows and fired at the musketeers, the heavy armor-piercing cones pierced the musketeers' chain mail with the sound of breaking wind, the screams of the musketeers continued, and the Houjin skirmishers also fell down with bloody arrows in the continuous volley. More fire was concentrated on the main Houjin formation, and the place directly facing the musketeers suffered the most severe blows, and soldiers with spears in their hands continued to roll and fall to the ground, and the armor-breaking cones of the Houjin skirmishers also began to attack the Ming spearmen. Many of the spearmen fell to the ground, leaving dead and wounded behind the arrays of both sides, and the battlefield was filled with the screams of those who had been hit.

Brother Guan's brain was almost numb, and he was twenty steps away in front of him. There was a Houjin soldier who shot while retreating, and the Houjin soldier dodged many volleys without dying. kept firing arrows in the direction of Brother Guan's team.

Brother Guan can only step forward, and he can't leave the team to pursue, only being beaten and not fighting back is an unbearable feeling, at this time, that Jiannu sent out another arrow, Brother Guan's chest sounded, the strong force made his body stun, and there was a pain in his chest, and the teammates behind pushed Brother Guan to continue to walk forward, Brother Guan gasped again and again, and when he finally eased up, he lowered his chest, and the heavy arrow of the birch pole was inserted in the iron armor leaf of his chest, and he was shaking up and down with his own movement, The thick arrowhead is still mostly cut off.

He hurriedly freed his left hand to pull out the arrow, a stream of liquid flowed through the skin on his chest, he felt that the flesh was not deep, but the wound was very painful, the teammate on the left suddenly screamed, and fell down with a heavy arrow on the front door, and the teammates in the back row quickly stepped forward to fill the battle line.

It was Brother Guan's favorite old Zhou who was shot, and Brother Guan had a nameless fire in his heart, and the fear in his heart disappeared, his eyes breathed fire, and his footsteps continued to walk forward with the beat of the drum.

The spears on the Houjin infantry formation are getting closer and closer, and the front row and two wings of the Houjin soldiers have suffered heavy losses, and under the repeated blows of artillery and muskets in Dengzhou Town, they have lost nearly three hundred people, especially in the position of the musketeers facing the Ming army, where is the blank of the Dengzhou spear array, and the musketeers must reduce the threat of the opposing melee arms, and concentrate on those few places during the march.

Houjin's scattered heavy arrows also pose a great threat to the Dengzhou soldiers, although they can shoot through the iron armor of the Ming army in more than 20 steps, their rate of fire is higher, and they also caused nearly 100 casualties in Dengzhou Town in a short time, but the power of the bow and arrow is limited, and the number of direct deaths is not much.

Finally, there were only twenty steps left between them, and the two sides were close to the distance of the battle after enduring the blows of long-range weapons, and a close-range battle to the death was coming.

The marching drumbeat of the Dengzhou phalanx suddenly stopped, and turned into a slow drum beat at intervals.

"Sideways flat gun!"

Twenty paces apart, the roar of Zhong Lao Si and other officers sounded, the first three rows of spears in the four small phalanxes of the Ming army were flattened, and the body of Brother Guan turned to the right, his left hand was in front and his right hand was behind, and the spear was aimed at the direction of Jiannu. (Note: See the relevant work)

In the case that both sides are spears more than four meters long, it is difficult for soldiers to accurately judge the timing of the stab, if they rush past the stab, they will often hit the opponent's spear head, but they do not stab the opponent.

Dense spearheads appeared in front of the array, the sound of Jiannu's drums slowed down, and their spearmen also leveled their spears, keeping a flat battle line approaching step by step, but the methods of holding them were varied, and there was no such uniformity as Dengzhou Town.

The phalanx musketeers fired a final volley, and the Jiannu skirmishers threw a wave of throwing axes and swords, inflicting the last long-range damage on the opponent, and then the Ming musketeers began to retreat and reload behind the formation, and some non-commissioned officers with experience in short-range melee combat slowed down the phalanx, drew daggers and waist knives, crouched down and drilled under the spear line along the line, and then hid in the gap between the first row of spears.

The Jiannu stragglers did not have this kind of training, and after the disappearance of the activity space, some of them rushed forward to fight, and were immediately stabbed to death by the dense spears, and some went to the Ming army to squat, and also learned to do so, these short soldiers looked at each other fiercely under the spear shaft, and were also waiting for the opportunity. These short men must not strike until they draw the attention of the enemy before the spears clash with each other, or they will be lightly tied into meat skewers by the opponent's dense spears.

The muskets on the outside were constantly firing, and the detachment and phalanx musketeers were suppressing the Houjin soldiers who were beyond their own lines with dense firepower, and the Jiannu archers on the outside were also counterattacking, and the whizzing sound of arrows flying was mixed with the roar of muskets.

Brother Guan's ears only reacted to the drum beat, and every time he sounded a drum, he took a step forward, and the other sounds seemed to be far away in the sky, the two wings were none of his business, but the spear in front of him was getting closer and closer, Brother Guan's eyes were red, and he subconsciously approached the enemy step by step according to the slow drum beat.

Jiannu is not a fool, he will not rush up and send it to the muzzle, the closer the two sides go, the stride length is getting smaller and smaller, the spear edge is flickering, they are all very threatening, under the mutual deterrence, they are cautiously approaching the attack distance.

Opposite Brother Guan was a dark-skinned Houjin step armor, he was wearing a helmet similar to a bright helmet, his eyes flashed fiercely under the brim of the iron hat, Brother Guan didn't go to the spear blade not far in front of him, his eyes stared at the opponent's shoulder position without blinking, paying attention to the opponent's movements, moving slowly under his feet, judging the distance between each other.

The spearmen can't maintain the super long spear flat for too long, it should come sooner or later, Brother Guan's spearhead and the opponent's spearhead began to handover, the middle of the two sides of the front is a dense spear shaft, is slowly staggering, the spear shaft from time to time emitted a gentle collision sound, at this time the step drum has stopped, the soldiers on the front line are engrossed in the front opponent, judging the most suitable assassination time in the slow approach, no one has the time to make a sound, only Zhong Laosi and other officers shouted reminders, and the rustle of footsteps.
