Chapter 674: Conspiracy
All the officers and men of the new Korean army who launched a counterattack knew that the bows and arrows in the hands of the Tartars would be useless only if they rushed in front of the Tartar archers in the shortest possible time.
When the time comes, the broadsword in your hand will become the deadliest weapon to destroy these Tartars.
Therefore, although the arrows fired by the Tartars were very sharp, after each round of arrow rain, dozens of soldiers of the Korean New Army fell on the offensive road. However, the new Korean army, which continued to attack without any fate......
After losing three or four hundred men in a row, the distance between the two armies was shortened from 80 paces to less than 40 paces.
At this time, as long as the new Korean army launched a counterattack resisted two or three rounds of Tartar arrows, the Tartar archers had to give up their bows and arrows, change to ordinary cold weapons, and engage in close combat with the new Korean army rushing towards them......
Faced with this situation, Ao Bai, who was shocked, couldn't help but exclaim again: "It's not good...... Five hundred archers are in danger! Order the archers, immediately retreat......"
As soon as Ao Bai finished speaking, the military advisor next to him opened his mouth and reminded: "General, it's too late...... The North Koreans have already rushed to the front, and now they are retreating, no different from committing suicide......"
"The idea of the minions is to immediately send more troops to the battlefield...... The last thing I'm afraid of is a close-range → kill...... Since the new Korean army has given us this opportunity, then we will seize him and use this opportunity to destroy this new Korean army......"
Ao Bai's eyes lit up, and his gloomy face quickly revealed an expression of approval.
Compared with the new Korean army, the Tatars have two major advantages......
Sharp archery and tough melee combat abilities.
In front of the musketeers of the new North Korean army, no matter how sharp the archery is. will be crushed by muskets. Lost effect.
So. The only remaining advantage of the Tartars was melee combat, and only in close combat could the Tartars defeat the new Korean army, which was armed with muskets. And this is also why the Tatars tried their best to shorten the offensive distance when facing the new Korean army. We will strive to fight with the Korean new army in the shortest possible time and weaken the superiority of the Korean new army in the hands of muskets.
And now the situation on the battlefield. Isn't that exactly what you want to see?
As soon as the military advisor spoke, Ao Bai, who had not thought too much, loudly affirmed: "Yes, immediately recruit troops to the battlefield and destroy these new Korean troops who dare to take the initiative......"
"Strategist, immediately order the last thousand sword and shield men in the army to attack...... In the shortest possible time, end the battle ......"
A thousand Tartar sword and shield men, just when they rushed out of their positions.
There were also more than a thousand new Korean troops, like an unstoppable huge chariot, crashing into the Tartar archers.
A Tartar archer who is armed only with self-defense weapons such as daggers. How can it be a sought-after opponent of the new North Korean army commander......
With a spear far longer than a short knife in his hand, just one face. There were almost a hundred Tartar archers, and without even a chance to react, they fell on the battlefield with a muffled grunt, dead and dead......
The outcome of the first battle between the two armies was absolutely shocking for the Tartar archers.
They did not expect that the North Koreans, who have always been cowardly, would have such combat effectiveness.
However, the Tartars' bravery and fear of death are definitely not covered. After losing the first battle, after only a brief shock, they fought with the North Koreans who rushed over......
Relying on the superiority in troops and weapons, in the face of the formidable Tartars, more than 1,000 Korean new troops fought on a par with each other.
For every soldier of the new Korean army, a Tartar archer will fall on the battlefield.
Soon, there were less than two hundred of the five hundred archers left.
And under the siege of more than 1,000 Korean new troops, there are fewer and fewer, and they may be overwhelmed by the wave of people formed by the Korean new army at any time......
And just as this close-quarters fight was coming to an end. A thousand Tartar sword and shield bearers finally rushed to the battlefield.
Compared with the Tartar archers, the combat effectiveness of these sword and shield bearers is definitely more than one notch higher.
Therefore, as soon as a thousand Tartar sword and shield men joined the battlefield, the battlefield was one-sided.
The new Korean army, which was still becoming more and more brave just now, directly underwent earth-shaking changes in front of the Tartar sword and shield hands, just like chopping melons and vegetables, and was cut to the ground by the Tartar sword and shield hands.
In the blink of an eye, as many as four or five hundred people of the new Korean army fell.
On the other hand, the Tartars have a thousand sword and shield hands, and there are less than 2,000 people when they are full.
It is certain that in the face of such a situation, it will not be long before more than 1,000 Korean New Army will be completely lost.
Since he entered North Korea and encountered the new Korean army, the battle in front of him is definitely the most painful battle.
Therefore, as soon as the battle situation fell to the Houjin side, the gloom and nervousness on Ao Bai's face were replaced by a smile.
As soon as he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, waiting for victory to come.
A few hundred steps away from him, Chen Ming, who was also paying attention to the battlefield, had a very unexpected smile on his face, and it was a smile full of sneers and murderous aura......
Close combat is indeed a huge advantage for the Tartars in the face of the new Korean army.
However, Aobai seems to have overlooked a problem.
This advantage is only for the musketeers of the new North Korean army, and it must have a sufficient superiority in troops.
And the Ao Bai in front of him not only does not have the advantage of troops, but also faces the musketeers of the new North Korean army......
In such a situation, the best way for the Tartars to fight is not to engage in close-range combat, but to use arrows that the Tartars are also good at to kill and injure the new Korean army that is not equipped with long-range attack weapons from a long distance.
Of course, Ao Bai did not do this, and the world did not regret it......
Just when Ao Bai thought that victory had beckoned to him again, in the dense forest, less than a hundred paces away from the battlefield, a deafening shout of killing sounded again.
Subsequently, Ao Bai, who was stunned, saw at least 2,000 new Korean troops with cold weapons in their hands, like tigers in the mountains, screaming and rushing towards the battlefield......
Although Ao Bai did not come to the battlefield in person, with the help of clairvoyance, Ao Bai saw even the slightest change on the battlefield very clearly.
The North Korean army, which had just been completely suppressed by the sword and shield men under his command, could only be beaten passively. After hearing the shouts of reinforcements behind him. There are less than 1,000 North Koreans left, as if they have been beaten with chicken blood, and they are slashing and killing on the battlefield.
And there were also only seven or eight hundred sword and shield men left, facing the sudden shouts of killing on the battlefield, especially after seeing the dense new Korean army dozens of paces away. Their already tired faces directly showed a trace of panic......
It is clear that in the face of an enemy several times larger than oneself, because the main forces have been defeated one after another, there is not much at all
They were directly scared of their morale...... (To be continued......)
