"Boom! Rumble! "The sound of dense artillery sounded, and the artillery equipped by the Qi family army in large quantities began to exert its firepower advantage when the distance between the two armies was relatively long.

On the other hand, on the devil's side, Ashigaru is only equipped with a small amount of light armor, under the intensive artillery attack, the defensive power of these armors is almost negligible, a large number of ashigaru and the samurai who supervised the battle were overturned to the ground by the artillery fire of the Qi family's army, and some of the bones that were directly blown up by frontal hits were gone.

At this time, the forward of the Qi family's army began to speed up, and at the same time, the soldiers began to clench their weapons and prepare for hand-to-hand combat with the devils under the orders of the general and Qianzong.

The Qi family army formed an army in the reign of the world (relative to the end of the Ming Dynasty), and the combat effectiveness of the enemy faced was far inferior to that of the Manchurian Eight Banners, and the only stronger ones were the Satsuma Falcon and the Wuliangha Mongol cavalry. On the fierceness, on the outnumbered attack of the public, the Qi family army is not as good as the Guanning iron cavalry of Yuan Inspector's division, the Qi family army is famous for its strict military discipline, professional training level, the most advanced equipment in East Asia, the record of winning a hundred battles and a record of more than 100,000 ranks.

In terms of the level of firearms equipment, the Qi family army not only far surpassed the number of firearms and equipment of the Toyotomi Hideyoshi devils, but also more than ten times that of the devil's troops in terms of artillery, and even higher than the number of firearms equipped with firearms in some respects than the dangerous mountain army under the command of Li Rusong. The swords and other cold weapons he used were also armor, which was when Qi Jiguang was in power before. Spend a lot of money to get a boutique. As a local army, the sophistication of its firearms is even close to that of the Shenji Battalion in the capital.

The victory of the Qi family army was also based on strict and even harsh military law: if the battle was ineffective and defeated, the main general would be killed, and all the partial generals would be beheaded; The partial general was killed in battle, and all his subordinates were beheaded; Thousands of generals died in battle, and all his subordinates were beheaded; Hundreds of generals were killed in battle, and all the banners under his command were beheaded; The flag commander was killed in battle, his captain was beheaded, the captain was killed in battle, and his soldiers were not killed, and all ten soldiers were beheaded. The reward for cutting the level is also quite rich, and each level is rewarded with 40 taels of silver! In this way, each soldier will fight with all his might, fighting until he wins or dies.

The strict discipline of the Qi family army is also famous all over the world, but all those who disturb the people when they go out will be beheaded and displayed to the public, so the Qi family army can win the support of the local people no matter where it fights, and even the ethnic minorities are willing to swear to serve it, no matter which feudal dynasty has such an army.

Qi Jiguang's nephew Qi Jin, after Qi Jiguang's death, commanded the rest of the Qi family army and Nurhachi's Houjin army in a bloody battle of the Daling River in the Battle of the Hunhe River, killing tens of thousands of elite Manchu Qing elites with two white flags and two yellow flags. Therefore, the Qi family's army is far better than the Eight Banners Army with cold weapons. In addition, Yuan Chonghuan's 20,000 Guanning Iron Cavalry was originally composed of Zhejiang soldiers.

Although the Qi family army under Wu Weizhong is not Qi Jiguang's descendant troops, its elite level is not covered. Although the devil's firecracker troops frantically fired back, causing a large number of casualties among the Qi family's troops. But the four thousand Qi family troops still marched with a steady pace, advancing in an orderly manner, and gradually approached the vanguard of the devil soldiers.

"These cunning Ming Dynasty people! Actually despicable use of firearms. Come and kill and injure the warriors of His Highness Taiko. Waiting to see closer, I want you to understand the power of the Yamato samurai" Seeing a large amount of artillery fire pouring on the Qi family's army overhead, but there was nothing to be done, Shimazu Yoshihiro was overjoyed when he saw that the other party actually took the initiative to approach. Secretly ordered the troops to stabilize the formation. The samurai troops were ready to charge.

As the distance between the two armies shortened. The nightmarish shelling for the devil soldiers finally stopped, and the trembling devil Ashigaru was under the bloody suppression of the samurai. Mustering up some courage, the ghost howled and quickened the pace of progress.

"Just a widow, dare to argue with Grandpa Qi's army? Soldiers! Kill the Wokos with me! Wu Weizhong pointed the war knife in his hand straight ahead, and with a roar he took the lead in the charge.

With Wu Weizhong's order, the Qi family army, which was originally advancing in a boxy military formation, suddenly changed, and the neat army began to disperse, with a group of twelve people, holding a variety of weapons, and pounced on the devil army in a straggler formation - the Qi family army swept through the southeast Japanese army, and the world-famous mandarin duck array began to play a role.

I saw these twelve Qi family soldiers, the first is the captain, the second two hold a long card, a rattan card, the long card hand holds a long shield to block the heavy arrows and spears of the Japanese robbers, the rattan hand holds a light rattan shield and carries a javelin, waist knife, the long card player and the rattan player mainly cover the rear team forward, the rattan player can also fight with the enemy in close combat in addition to covering. Then the two of them are holding the wolf laugh for the wolf, the wolf is the use of the southern growth of the bamboo, choose its old and solid, the end of the bamboo obliquely cut into a pointed shape, and leave the sharp branches around it, each wolf is about 3 meters long, the wolf whisk uses the sharp blade at the front end of the wolf whisk to assassinate the enemy to cover the advance of the shield hand and the attack of the spearman behind. Then there were four spearmen with spears, two on the left and two on the right, and the shieldmen and wolf-bearers on the left and right in front of them. This was followed by the skirmishers with short knives, who, if they did not stab the enemy, rushed forward with their daggers to slash the enemy. The last one is a firecracker with a firecracker, who constantly draws cold and shoots the Japanese with a firecracker.

In the face of the Qi family's army's offensive and defensive formation, whether it was a mud bombardment light army armed with a simple spear, or a samurai armed with a sophisticated katana, they were all at a loss. No matter how hard they fought and rushed forward desperately, they couldn't get close to the bodies of the Qi family soldiers.

The fragile spear was broken by the Qi family's wolf in a straight turn, or it was broken from the middle of the spear body. The samurai armed with well-forged katana swords were like a group of hungry and ferocious wolves, circling around the mandarin duck array, but there was no way to break through the battle formation of the Qi family army and fight in close combat.

The swarming mud slammed into Ashigaru and the samurai, and most of them were shot by the whistling javelins before they could take a few steps forward, and the whole person was directly shot upside down by the huge impact.

The lucky ones who were not shot by the javelins in the back continued to roar and charge, but they were quickly blocked by the shield of the Qi family army, and they were in a dilemma, and a few unlucky ghosts were directly hooked by the wolf. The dense barbs and barbs on the wolf's roof pierced directly into the devil's body. As the wolf soldiers pulled back and forth, the devils let out inhuman screams, but they couldn't get rid of it at all, and many of their companions swarmed up, trampling these poor insects into pulp.

This weapon can be said to be a weapon that Qi Jiguang specially invented to restrain the indestructible katana of the mud bombardment samurai:

Qi Jiguang's "New Book of Ji Xiao" contains: "The fate of the people is cowardly in the face of the enemy, he is thin, and he is bold, although he is very careful on weekdays. There was a lot of panic. Forget about it. However, the branches are luxuriant, covering more than onebody, and you can be afraid of it. It is enough to strengthen the courage and help the people, and the people dare to stand still. "Ming Qi Jiguang's "Miscellaneous Collection of Practical Records of Military Training? Armament unties? Wolf Whisk: "The wolf whisk is made of big bamboo. The upper part is connected with the attached branches on all sides. Branches. It can be two feet thick and five or six feet long. If a person covers his whole body with a gesture, he will not be able to enter with a knife and a bush. Therefore, people are arrogant and use it as the forefront, which is a sharp weapon for killing Japanese people in the south. ”

Qi Jiguang installed an iron spear head on the top of the long and knotted bamboo, and the thorns on both sides were ironed with fire, and then poured tung oil and applied poison. During the battle, although the long knife of the wolf is sharp, but it cuts the soft branches, the bamboo is layer deep, which can block the spear from penetrating, the wolf soldier rushes in front, the pikeman follows closely on the left and right, and the big knife responds to the back, killing the Japanese invaders countless casualties.

And a few samurai who had been taught by masters and knew how to do kendo relied on their nimble skills to avoid the pull of the wolf, but they encountered the four spears that roared head-on. Before he could dodge the spear, the wolf and the javelin came again.

On the surface, tens of thousands of mud bombardment ashigaru and samurai, like black pressed ants, surrounded the four thousand Qi family legions, it seemed that the mud bombardment army was victorious, and the Qi family army looked like it would soon be completely wiped out.

But in fact, Qi Jiajun is like a thousand-year-old turtle, with wolves, shields, and firearms guarding himself impenetrable as turtle shells. Occasionally launch a counterattack, which moves like thunder, instantly biting the intruder to death or injury. However, its own formation is as steady as Mount Tai, like a leisurely stroll among thousands of troops and horses, advancing steadily step by step, gradually tearing apart the mud bombardment army.

On the other hand, the mud bombardment army, on the surface, looks like a fierce hungry wolf, baring its teeth and constantly pounceing and biting, but in fact the results are few, most of the attacks are to leave a pile of corpses and flee screaming.

As the battle continued, although there were still tens of thousands of people in the mud bombardment army, it was already difficult to support itself, a large number of ashigaru were killed by the Qi family's army's mandarin duck array, the artillery of the car battalion and the firecrackers, and a small number of samurai circled around the mandarin duck formation, and there was no way to attack.

In the other two wings, the cavalry under the command of Yang Yuan and Zhang Shijue, although they are not as elite as the Liaodong Iron Cavalry built by Li Rusong, they are also elite cavalry that has fought with the Tartars for many years and is fierce and good at fighting. Although it was dragged by the devil's dwarf mule cavalry at the beginning, it soon occupied the initiative on the battlefield, divided and surrounded a large number of devil cavalry, and destroyed each one.

At this time, Yang Yuan and Zhang Shijue had already begun to mobilize the infantry, attacking the mud bombardment army from both flanks to help the Qi family's army break through, and at the same time, the two iron cavalry roared like a raging wind and rushed straight to Maori Huiyuan's main formation, and almost no one could stop them wherever they passed. The main force of the entire mud bombardment army was about to be divided into two parts, and was eaten by the Ming army one by one like eating meat.

And Shimazu Yoshihiro, who was already red-eyed, did not notice the danger of being cut off at this time, but led dozens of family samurai to fight frantically, trying to rescue the family troops who were dragged by the Qi family's army.

Behind him, Konishi Yukicho and Maori Terumoto had already begun to gather their own formations and were ready to retreat, but they had been dragged by Yang Yuan, who had personally put on the battlefield to kill, and it was difficult to retreat.

At this time, the main force of the Liaodong Iron Cavalry led by Li Rusong finally emerged from behind the devil!

"Kill all the Japanese invaders, just today, the Liaodong Iron Cavalry will kill the enemy with me!"

"Kill!"

"My Liaodong Iron Horse is invincible!"

With a thunderous roar, the five thousand Liaodong Iron Horsemen stretched out their bodies on the plain like a raging black dragon, and pounced on the rear of the unsuspecting devil army with their bloody mouths open.

"Ten thousand enemies! Cast! Li Rusong rode on a charcoal-colored horse, raised the horse chopping knife in his hand, and ordered the five thousand Liaodong iron horsemen to all come out of his arms in unison, feel out one by one small 10,000 enemies, ignite the fuse with a fire fold, and throw it into the army of devils who are still fighting with Yang Yuan head-on.

"Boom! Rumble! With a burst of explosions, the unsuspecting devil army suffered heavy losses, and nearly 1,000 devils guarding the rear were blown to pieces. The rear of the devil was suddenly blown open a huge gap, and the Liaodong Iron Cavalry swarmed in, instantly splitting the devil's main formation into two!

"Governor Konishi's life!" (To be continued......)
