In fact, it was not until the machine gun was equipped that the huge cavalry completely turned into a pile of meat and lost its status as the main branch of the army. And before that, the cavalry group charge was quite terrifying. As for the Battle of Bali Bridge, it was the wrong command of Seng Lingqin that was truly fatal.

At this time, Li Laiheng and they were facing an unprecedented test, the Tartars swarmed up, overwhelming, and at a glance, all the Tartar cavalry, many of them looked like flies. Guns rang out constantly, and the Tartars fell in pieces, but these losses were not fatal relative to the huge numbers, and they were moving forward.

The distance between the two sides is constantly shortening, and the Tartars are paving the way to the Angolan army with their lives, which is brutal but effective.

Li Laiheng's face was extremely solemn, if he had enough time to set up traps and obstacles, he might not be afraid of the Tartars, but in the face of several times the cavalry charge, no one could help but be terrified. Fortunately, he was spelled out from the sea of corpses and blood, and his will was extremely firm.

"Dog Tartar, it's a big deal to fight with a white edge, the surname Li won't be afraid of you!"

The Tartars finally rushed to within a hundred paces, and three of the people around Li Shutai were killed, one of whom was a loyal servant who had followed Li Yongfang for many years, and paid such a heavy price that Li Shutai gritted his teeth.

"Minggou, let you also see the power of the Great Qing firearms!"

At this time, the Tartars raised their firearms one after another, and Dolgon's large-scale copycat Anguo Army experience, the firecrackers were one of the most important. He gathered a large number of craftsmen, and with the help of Westerners, he finally made a firearm with a range of about 100 paces. And also the use of flint firing. In terms of power, it is not much different from the early firearms of the Anguo Army. Fortunately, relying on Gu Zhenhua's suggestion, Anguojun came up with a mini gun. to maintain the technical advantage.

Within a hundred paces, the Tartar's firecracker was already lethal.

Accompanied by the heavy smoke of gunpowder, a rain of bullets came towards the Anguo army, and Li Laiheng stood beside a red-faced soldier, just in his early twenties, but he had already experienced many battles, and at least three Tartars had just died in his hands.

A lead pellet penetrated the helmet. hit the forehead, and immediately blood gushed out, in the resolute eyes. The radiance passed quickly, and the sturdy body fell limply to the ground.

Li Laiheng's heart tightened, and as far as he could see, blood flowers bloomed on the chest of someone in the front row. They fell to the ground.

Tartars shoot on horses. The accuracy was poor, less than ten people were shot and fell, but the shock was already there. Just now, it was all the Anguo army attacking the Tartars, and as a result, the Tartars also returned fire with firearms, and the soldiers were suddenly a little scrambling.

"Don't panic, the people behind you will go up!"

"The big husband is shrouded in horse leather, a blessing in life!"

"There is an army here, and there is a prince. Everyone's family members don't have to worry, now is the time to sacrifice their lives to repay the prince. Those who retreat will not be forgiven! ”

Li Laiheng shouted loudly, the Anguo army was well-trained, and quickly regained its composure, and the soldiers in the back row immediately filled the vacancy, and the vengeful bullets shot towards the Tartars.

The two sides have entered the most cruel life-and-death confrontation, they can't escape, they can't be cowardly, they can only fight with their lives, and whoever can survive depends on God's favor. The sound of gunfire rumbled, the smoke of gunpowder rose, enveloping the battlefield, and in the faint sense, you could see people on both sides constantly falling, and one by one life disappeared cheaply.

Angolan casualties began to increase, but the lack of accuracy in Tartar shooting made the losses even heavier.

Li Shutai's eyes were bloodshot, he was already difficult to ride a tiger, and the losses were already so heavy, if he was defeated, how would Dolgon look at him, at this time, there was only blood fighting, as long as he won, he would have everything!

"The firecrackers dismounted, beat hard, charged with heavy horses, and were not allowed to retreat!"

The Tartars quickly adjusted their tactics, the musketeers abandoned their horses and concentrated on providing fire cover for the cavalry, and the casualties of the Angol army rose rapidly, and the Tartars finally rushed to within thirty paces, and victory seemed to beckon them again. Li Shutai also showed a smug smile.

No matter how many tricks the Anguo Army has, as long as the strength is superior, you will have to fight it all!

The Tartars surged forward, unstoppable.

"Listen to the white pole soldiers, our ancestors fought bloody battles with the Tatars in Liaodong, their equipment is not as good as ours, their food is not as good as ours, and their military salaries are not as much as ours! Relying on their blood, they fought the Tartars and never took a step back, are you willing to shame your ancestors? ”

"Unwilling, unwilling!"

"Flat spear!"

Ma Wannian roared loudly, his hands clutching the ash rod tightly, and the head of the spear that flashed with cold light was pointed at the tartar. The musketeers had retreated to the back of the phalanx of spears, and instead of relaxing, they continued to reload their bullets and waited to hunt the Tartars.

The huge cavalry rushed to the pike-phalanx, and there was no room for retreat on either side. The white pole soldiers leaned over slightly, allowing themselves to stand more steadily, holding the barrel of their guns tightly, gritting their teeth and glaring, they knew what the next moment would be, but they would never take a step back!

All of a sudden, the waves crashed against the embankment, like Mars hitting the Earth.

The white pole soldiers in the front row were knocked into the air one after another, and the ash poles with excellent toughness in their hands were broken, and they flew five meters away and fell heavily to the ground, blood gushing out of their mouths.

A white-pole soldier was even hit and broke his ribs, injured his internal organs, and blood foamed out of his mouth and nose, and he couldn't survive. He barely held on, glancing ahead. One of the Tartars was pierced through the chest by a spear and also rolled under the horse. A smile suddenly welled up at the corner of his mouth, and his expression froze.

The impact of the Tartars was extremely ferocious, and most of the white-pole soldiers in the first three rows were knocked away, and fifty or sixty people died on the spot. However, this effort also paid off, and the momentum of the Tartars was finally contained, and the two sides fell into a bloody battle.

After Dolgon's hard training, the combat effectiveness has also improved a lot compared to before, although they have paid a heavy price, but these Tartars also know that this is the closest they have come to defeating the Anguo army, so these people regardless of the sacrifice, regardless of the cost, crazy impact.

The White Pole Soldiers and the Old Guards, who also went to war, were all troops with a glorious history, and they were naturally unwilling to become losers.

The two sides shouted to kill the heavens, and the cruel white-knuckle battle, every moment someone fell, and someone blocked up without hesitation. Stepping on the corpses and blood of their comrades, the two sides fought frantically.

The Anguo Army is like an isolated island submerged in a torrent, stubbornly resisting the invasion. At their heads, the soldiers in the hot air balloons endured the cold wind and faithfully performed their duties.

Although they did not rush to kill in person, their role was incomparable, and where there was danger, where there were many Tartars, their banners did not hesitate to point there.

Li Laiheng and Ma Wannian led a hundred people respectively, all of them Minnie guns, these people are like firefighters, no matter what goes wrong, they immediately rescue, no Tartar can deal with the sharpness of Minny guns.

The mind is broken, the chest explodes, the stumps and broken legs are flying all over the sky, the more ferocious, the more the Tartar rushes in front, the more it becomes the object of key care.

Li Shutai thought that he had rushed to the front of the Anguo army, as long as he fought hand-to-hand and bloody, how could a group of infantry compete with the cavalry, but the Anguo army not only carried it, but also looked like a tenacious hedgehog, so that he had no way to speak.

The time dragged on like this, and gradually after noon, Li Shutai also sobered up a little, and he finally realized that something was wrong.

The target of the Tartars was Handan, but Li Shutai saw that this group of bold infantry dared to take the initiative to attack, so he did not hesitate to kill them, and the two sides were entangled for so long that they delayed precious time. The more I thought about it, the more sweat beads on Li Shutai's head, maybe it would be better to send some people to entangle them and attack Handan with the main force......

Lee So-tai came to his senses, but it was too late!

At the head of the city of Handan, two huge hot air balloons had been raised, and the soldiers on them accurately reported the battle situation to Li Xu and Li Dingguo.

"Li Laiheng and Ma Wannian are both good, they can hold the Tartars for so long, I think it's time for a large army to take action!"

Li Dingguo also nodded, looked at Kang Lesheng who had just arrived with a smile, and said, "Brigade Commander Kang, are you sure to defeat the Tartars?" ”

Kang Lesheng smiled slightly: "If Dolgon comes, he may still be afraid, but Li Shutai is such a traitor, what can he do, and it's time for him to pay off his father's debts!" ”

Li Dingguo said: "According to the observation of the hot air balloon, the left flank of the Tartars has the largest number of people, but the formation is very chaotic, I'm afraid it's the Mongolian cavalry, Brigade Commander Kang, just start from this side!" ”

Kang Lesheng nodded, turned around and went down the city wall, at this time one of his brigades had all rushed to Handan, although everyone was very tired, but the shouting and killing outside the city made them full of fighting spirit, and they were all gearing up.

"Brothers, follow me out of the city and kill the Tartars!"

At the sound of an order, these soldiers left the city through the east gate of Handan, quickly assembled into a neat queue, and pressed towards the Tartars.

To the sound of war drums, the new force clung to the fire and slowly but firmly slaughtered towards the Tartars.

"Lord Wang, it's not good, Minggou's reinforcements are here!"

Badali was urging his subordinates to attack, and he was still immersed in the grief of losing his brother, and wanted to beat the water dogs, but when he heard this, he was also surprised.

Looking back, I saw that the Anguo Army was pressing over with neat steps. The infantry actually took the initiative to attack the cavalry, which was simply bold, and Badali was completely enraged.

"Ming dogs are still heavenly soldiers, and Lao Tzu wants to crush them!" Badali turned his horse's head sharply and shouted to his men: "Warriors, follow this king!" ”

In his sight, his eyes were full of Tartar cavalry, and Kang Lesheng showed a contemptuous smile.

"Artillery ready, give me a hard shot!"

The accompanying artillery quickly stopped, quickly adjusted the angle of fire, and loaded the artillery. In the midst of the hustle and bustle, the Tartar had already approached.

"Fire!"

Boom Boom! Boom Boom!

The thunderous sound shook his eardrums, and Badali jerked his head up, only to see a black object rapidly expanding, encroaching on the entire eyeball.

"Ah, help!" (To be continued......)
