Bingguangyan rushed out with four hundred cavalry like arrows from the string, the configuration of the cavalry of the Qing army is very different from the cavalry class of the Mawei Army, the armor of the Mawei Army is plate armor, but the armor of the Qing army is iron leaf armor, and it is cotton armor, and the equipment of these four hundred cavalry is not very uniform. But in any case, in the era of cold weapons, the combined power of this cavalry was much greater than that of infantry. The speed of the war horse galloping is not comparable to people, although the distance between the four hundred cavalry and the retreating Korean soldiers is more than a kilometer, but it is only a matter of a few minutes for Bingguangyan to catch up with the fleeing Korean soldiers.

The war horse has extremely strong kinetic energy, and after catching up with the North Korean soldiers, they directly collide with them and knock them away, without using a saber to chop them at all. Of course, this is the first thing I encountered, and I still keep chopping with my saber when I stay behind. These Korean soldiers were also frightened by the artillery muskets of the Mawei Army just now, and the power of the cavalry was amazing, so they didn't dare to stay at all, and fled forward without their lives. It seems that as long as he outruns the people around him, he can pick up a small life.

If they faced the Qing army, these 400 cavalry might still feel a little uncomfortable, after all, they were still Qing troops two days ago. But these are not Qing soldiers in front of them, but Korean soldiers with obviously different clothes and armor, so there is no need to scruple when they are blind, and they are not merciful at all. These four hundred cavalry became more ferocious than ever, and their combat strength caught up with the most famous Guanning Iron Cavalry, and even they felt that they could be compared to the Eight Banners Iron Cavalry thirty years ago.

"Brothers, kill!"

"Kill, kill these North Korean soldiers. Let the horsetail army in the city also take a look. We're not useless! ”

"Yes. Wang Lao Wu, you take a team of left side interspersed; Ma Face, you lead your second team to rush on the right side, and the other brothers follow me, go straight to the center, and cut off the heads of the leading generals of North Korea! ”

"Order!" The two cavalry generals who were called Wang Lao Wu and Ma Mian by Bing Guangyan immediately responded, and then slapped their horses and led their team of 100 people to separate left and right. The North Korean army was quickly interspersed with two teams. It is then divided into several pieces. Although the North Korean soldiers were still fleeing towards the north, they could not be united. In this way, the cavalry behind was even more unscrupulous, wantonly slashing and killing the Korean routs on the battlefield. Although there were still more than 2,000 Korean soldiers and horses left, they could not withstand such a ferocious chopping of 400 cavalry.

"Kill!" These 400 cavalry also killed, covered in the blood of the enemy, the defeated Korean army could not organize any effective resistance at all, even if there were one or two teams of men and horses and two or three hundred people were organized, but they could not stop the collective charge of hundreds of cavalry, rushing to the front, basically not waiting for the group of horses to collide. These little arrays collapsed on their own. It is impossible for such a few people to block the impact of hundreds of cavalry, not to mention that this previous rout has made the Korean soldiers lose their courage.

The Qing army Sheng Jing general is on the side of the Japanese people. He didn't care about these North Korean soldiers at all, he only brought 800 Qing troops when he came to Anximen before, and the rest were all North Korean soldiers, and his soldiers were only in the formation, and now he was the fastest runner. But seeing that it was the Qing cavalry who rushed out of the city, and these cavalrymen were still wearing the armor and uniforms of the Qing army, which made him feel uncomfortable for a while.

"These rebellions! They have already taken refuge in the Mawei Army! Gerzi, take your men and kill me a horse pistol, and kill the two hundred cavalry that rushed in the middle for me, especially the leading one, you don't have to come back if you don't kill them. Unai roared angrily.

The number of cavalry in his army was quite large, and among the 800 soldiers and horses he brought over, 260 were cavalry. Bingguangyan and more than 200 other cavalry were fighting hard, and their morale was so high that they couldn't be more high, and when they saw the two hundred Manchu Eight Banner cavalry rushing over on the opposite side, they didn't panic at all, but felt excited from their hearts. These are the Eight Banners Iron Cavalry, but the Eight Banners Iron Cavalry at this time is very different from the Eight Banners Iron Cavalry thirty years ago.

The reason why it is said that there is a big difference, the difference is actually the same, combat power. Now the equipment of these Eight Banners Iron Cavalry is not worse than that of the original Dajin Kingdom, but it is even better. The war horse is also the best war horse in Liaodong, but it is better than the Mongolian war horse under Bingguangyan and others. But over the years, the Eight Banners Iron Cavalry has indeed degenerated, even if these Shengjing's soldiers and horses, their cavalry, under decades of glory and wealth, are determined and can insist on exercising, so their combat power can be imagined.

"Kill!" The cavalry of the two armies, totaling more than 400 cavalry, officially began to collide and began to stagger forward. The cavalry under the command of Bingguangyan has just won a big victory, and there are still 200 cavalry on the side, and they are also outflanking from the left and right sides at this time, so the morale is barred, and it is called a death when fighting. In fact, there are three reasons why these cavalry warriors can have such combat power at this time. One is indeed a bit red-eyed, and it is already ignored, but this does not mean all. The second is that these cavalry units of the newly surrendered Mawei Army want to prove themselves to the Mawei Army in the city, although their avatars are obedient, but we are not a bad breed. The last one is the policy of the Mawei Army.

Although they had only been surrendering to the Mawei Army for a few days, the policy of the Mawei Army had already been preached among them. The welfare package of the Mawei Army is outrageous, is this still raising soldiers? It's like raising an uncle! The basic monthly salary for a month is two silver dollars, and they have also seen silver dollars, and one piece is one or two pieces of silver! Two taels a month, without any deductions, the daily food is still of high standard. There was fish and meat in the house every day, and they had never seen them in the barracks.

At this time, these policies on the battlefield were not the driving force to stimulate their potential and blood, and the most direct one was that the head of the enemy army represented the merits of the war. And what does it mean? Exploits represent money and official position! According to the rules of the Mawei Army, military merit must be achieved in order to be promoted, so even the most ordinary soldier has the opportunity to rise continuously. Become a colonel-level officer. and even general-level officers. This has already appeared in many cases in the Mawei Army. The other attached is the monetary reward for military merit, a head is twenty taels of silver, and a big son will not be less of you at that time.

"Brothers, receive rewards for meritorious service!"

"Kill!"

The two hundred cavalry led by Wang Lao Wu and Ma Mian on both sides were also outflanked, and the four hundred cavalry joined forces to strangle the two hundred cavalry of Gelji and his subordinates, and the two armies suffered casualties among each other, but the Qing army Gelji was twice as large as Bingguangyan's side. The two cavalry staggered, and there were less than eighty men left under Gerzi's command. More than 120 people fell from their horses, and less than 60 under Bing Guangyan's command in total. The number of assassins under his command still looked like a large number, more than three hundred, which was no less than before. Gerzi also knew that he would not be able to complete the task at this time, but he didn't want to die in vain, so he gritted his teeth: "Listen to the order and retreat to the west!" Get out of the fray quickly! ”

"My lord, shall we chase?" Ma Mian had already returned to the main formation on Bingguangyan's side with the cavalry, and couldn't help but ask when he saw Gerji fleeing with the remnants of the cavalry.

"Poor Kou Mo Chase! Now there are still many North Korean foot soldiers on the battlefield, which are all war exploits and silver, and it is not cost-effective to chase those dozens of people. The whole army obeys the order, kill them all for me! Bingguangyan ordered, pointing to the Korean foot soldiers who were still fleeing towards the north.

"Order!"

The rumbling sound of horses' hooves sounded again. More than 300 cavalry once again pulled the reins to pursue the Korean rout!

In today's battle, the Qing army's casualties are absolutely heavy, Gongbeimen will finish more than 2,000 Qing troops and more than 2,000 Korean troops, and Anximen is even more miserable, the Qing army is not less, because it is small, but 5,000 Korean foot soldiers are not so lucky, less than 500 escaped back, that is to say, more than 4,500 Korean foot soldiers died in the hands of the Mawei army. On the south gate, the Qing army arranged the least number of troops, only more than 3,000 people, and did not attack, just for show, after all, the north gate is the main attack, and Anxi Gate also invested more troops. Therefore, the south gate only lost more than three hundred before receiving the order to retreat, and then retreated.

Min Ba Si and U Nei, who returned to the camp, learned that the losses were so heavy that they were all lost. It's only been one morning, and nearly 10,000 soldiers and horses have been removed from my side. You must know that the total number of them plus the North Korean soldiers is only 60,000, and the battle loss this morning is nearly 20%, which is too unacceptable!

In fact, the most unacceptable is the North Korean commander Jin Wanhong, his subordinates suffered the heaviest losses in one morning, and it can be said that most of the damage came from the North Korean army, which was 7,000 men! He brought a total of 30,000, and a quarter of them disappeared at once, so how could he go back and explain to the king of Korea? Immediately, he was furious in the camp, and said that the North Korean army would never continue to participate in the next siege. Instead, they waited for the Qing army to break the city, and then they went into the city together!

It took a long time for Min Baxi, the commander of the Qing army, to react, but he was the head coach and had a difficult task, and this was not the time to quarrel, so he began to reflect on the reason. Begin to compare the gap between the two armies in your mind. Previously, he watched the more than 5,000 Qing soldiers on the side of the Gongbei Gate retreat under the artillery fire and guns of the Mawei Army when they were even touching the enemy's side. It's still the overseer team behind that to let the attack continue. At the beginning, he originally had high hopes that the artillery positions comparable to the artillery of the Mawei Army were completely scrapped after firing less than ten rounds of artillery fire, and the artillery fire of the Mawei Army was too strong and accurate, completely suppressing their artillery, and finally destroying it all.

Today's events are changing so fast that he can't accept it for a while. His face was completely gloomy at the moment, how could such a battle be fought? The 5,000 Korean soldiers and horses of Anximen were also defeated, and it was almost an impossible task for them to storm the tower! He could already see that the horsetail cannons hit farther and more accurately than their redcoat cannons, and they fired much faster. Compared to the Hongyi cannons, which they could only fire a cannon for a long time, the cannons of the Mawei Army on the high ground behind the military formation were almost constantly spraying thick smoke and fire, pouring projectiles on the heads of the Qing army like droplets. In fact, he had never seen such a rate of fire, and the speed at which the Mawei Army fired its artillery was only one shot in a minute and a half, but compared to the Qing army's side, which could only fire one shot in four to five minutes, it was really much faster. In addition, the number of artillery on the side of the Mawei army is also more than that of the Qing army, so it is not surprising that Min Baxi has such an illusion.

What surprised him even more was the musket of the Mawei Army, how could the musket of other people hit so far. Although they were also equipped with musketeers, he could also see from the clairvoyant mirror that the musketeers at the front of his side had also fired. However, their shotguns could only shoot at the farthest of more than 80 steps, that is, less than 100 meters, and the effective killing distance was only 60 meters, which was similar to the bows and arrows of the Qing army. If you shoot, the bullets won't hit the castle tower at all, and the speed at which you shoot a shot, the Mawei army on the opposite side has already fired four or five shots. The most important thing is that other people's guns hit you far away, and they hit you from afar, such a big gap, how can you compare with others, and how can you continue to attack the city!

"Let's brainstorm how to deal with the horsetail army's firearms!" Min Baxi asked in a deep voice with an expressionless face.

There was silence for a while, and Min Baxi stared straight at each one. After a while, a Qing guerrilla came out of the column and replied: "Lord Yudutong, I feel that the Jiangxi troops used a shield cart when they fought with the Mawei Army in the past, and this shield cart can play some role. Indifferently, at this time, we are attacking the city, but our subordinates think that we can modify the shield car slightly, put more thick planks or pile sandbags, which should be able to resist the muskets of the Mawei Army, as well as the thunder thrown out by them when they get close! "The Qing army doesn't know what the Mawei Army threw out in the end, but that thing is very powerful, so the Qing army here calls the grenade a thunder!

"Huh?" Min Ba Si and Ou Nei glanced at each other, and both thought that this plan was feasible. "Good! This method is not bad, if there is a shield cart, the muskets of the horsetail army are not to be worried. The thunderbolt they had better throw is indeed quite powerful, but let's modify the shield car and make it thick with sand, so that the thunderbolt won't be able to blow up the soldiers! ”

"Not only that, but if the weak shield cart is made bigger and covered with more sandbags and planks, although the speed is very slow, it is better to be able to advance steadily to the city. It's easy to do when you get to the city, I've heard that the Mawei army likes to blow up the door with gunpowder when breaking the city, since they can do this, we can draw a scoop according to the gourd!
