"My lord, the enemy has begun to attack our army, and it is a cavalry of about a thousand people."

Mang Gurtai only sent a team of 1,000 men to attack Governor Kobayashi and them.

In his opinion, the cavalry of a thousand people is already very worthy of the other party. You must know that even if you are against a Ming army with 30,000 people, basically a team of 1,000 cavalry can defeat it.

Therefore, now for Governor Kobayashi's team of 10,000 people, he has dispatched a thousand cavalry on his side, isn't that already a matter of giving the other party a lot of face.

Of course, Mang Gurtai didn't know what to do, and these enemies on the other side were not the Ming army he thought they were.

Hearing this, President Kobayashi sneered.

"Hey! It seems that the other party didn't take us seriously at all, and looked down on us very much. But it doesn't matter, the pride of the enemy is also very beneficial to our battle. ”

He said to the generals around him.

"Gotaro Yoshida, I order you to lead a thousand ashigaru to meet the enemy. We must show our prestige, let the other party take a look, and know that we are not easy to mess with. ”

Not!

One of the named generals knelt on the ground and took the order.

"Adults go to the front of the battle, now the battle has begun, isn't it?"

After Taketaro Yoshida left, President Kobayashi said a word to the left and right.

Subsequently, all the people in the camp left here one after another and came to the front of the formation.

The Kyushu Army underwent military training in Nagasaki and came to Jincheng. Short-term military training was also conducted.

Because Zhao Hongyu and Jay Chou considered that at some point in the future, these Kyushu troops would inevitably face the Golden Eight Banners after the war, so they trained them very purposefully on how to fight against the cavalry.

Therefore, the soldiers of the Kyushu Army at this time, even if the enemies on the opposite side of Zhilu Road were cavalry, they did not panic.

However, unlike the Imperial soldiers, the Kyushu Army was not equipped with muskets and artillery, and they still used cold weapons.

Other words. They're still using cold weapons.

To say that the imperial army is not afraid of the Houjin Eight Banners Iron Cavalry. That's because the Imperial Army is equipped with powerful and sophisticated muskets and artillery, and with such confidence, of course, there is no fear of anything.

But the Kyushu Army is different.

But the Kyushu army did not panic at all, which is a bit strange.

"Enemy! Three hundred steps, crossbowmen shoot! “

Houjin's thousand horsemen have already entered the charging stage. The scene of the galloping horses was very spectacular, and the earth had begun to shake slightly.

The knights of the Eight Banners on horseback. He had already begun to swing the steel knife in his hand. And shouted loudly.

In their minds, the enemies on the other side were nothing at all, and they could be routed if they charged through.

But what disappointed them was. As they got closer and closer to the enemy, the enemy on the opposite side did not show any signs of panic at all, and they did not feel afraid of themselves charging at all.

That's weird.

You must know that even the elite Ming army in Liaodong will not behave so indifferently in the face of their Eight Banners Iron Cavalry charge.

Could it be that these enemies on the other side don't know what fear is?

Many of the Eight Banner cavalry in the charge suddenly flashed such a thought in their hearts.

Whoosh!

Just when they felt that they could not figure it out, a gap flashed in the neatly arranged enemy army on the opposite side, and some soldiers armed with crossbow arrows ran out of the gap and shot arrows at them.

Hum!

Is that all there is to it?

The cavalry of the Eight Banners in the charge leaked mocking expressions in the face of the enemy's arrows.

Immediately, the Eight Banners cavalry, who came galloping wildly, crouched sideways on the side of the war horse, and easily dodged the arrows that were fired.

I have to say that the Eight Banners cavalry is still very similar to that on the war horse.

Lao Tzu has been fighting with the Ming army for so many years, how can they not even cope with the attack of arrows.

After such a while, the distance between the two sides has narrowed a little closer.

Now, those Eight Banner cavalry can basically see the facial expressions of the enemy on the opposite side clearly.

It only takes a moment to rush and then you can rush to their front.

Hey!

As long as Lao Tzu rushes anywhere, then these enemy lines will definitely be unstable.

Usually, most of the time, isn't it like this?

Therefore, these Eight Banner cavalrymen have subconsciously smiled.

As long as the enemy's front is in disarray, it will not be long before it collapses. When the time comes, they will be able to hunt down these enemies with ease, which is a very easy thing to do.

Whoosh!

But the next moment, the smiles on the faces of the Eight Banner Cavalrymen who had already shown a smile on their faces suddenly froze.

Because the enemy on the opposite side, after the first attack, quickly began to fire a second time.

This makes sense.

Whether it's a bow or a crossbow, there's no reason why it's likely to continue in a short period of time.

You must know that archers are all human beings, and it will take a while for them to recover their strength.

At the same time, to aim, already drawn the bow and arrow.

Even if it's a crossbow arrow, you have to wind it up.

In this regard, the Eight Banners cavalry of Men'er Qing naturally thought that it was impossible for the enemy to have a second wave of arrows to cover it in a short period of time.

But the result was greatly beyond their expectations.

Instead of ending the arrows, the enemy quickly began a second wave of attacks.

Just looking at the first wave of enemy soldiers, he quickly retreated to the sides and ran to the rear from both sides. When they left, the soldiers in charge of the second wave of attacks ran out of the gap and shot the arrows of their crossbows.

After the second wave of crossbowmen finished shooting, they began to retreat to the sides like the first wave of soldiers, and then the third wave of soldiers rushed out......

And so on and so forth. It's as if there's no end in sight.

Although the galloping Eight Banners cavalry had superb riding skills, they were still greatly damaged in the face of such a dense arrow cover.

Without him, the crossbow bolts are raining down, unless you hide under the horse's belly.

And people can hide, but can a galloping war horse?

Therefore, if you can't shoot people, you shoot horses, and after those horses are shot, some people stand up, and some are hit hard and fall to the ground. In this way, a chain of accidents was triggered.

You must know that Lu Dao is now in the midst of a charge.

The war horse in front of it is like this. To the horse team galloping behind. Definitely makes a big difference.

Even, some of the Eight Banners cavalry were thrown to the ground, and they couldn't dodge at all in the face of their companions who rushed up from behind, and then they were trampled on by the hooves of their companions' war horses. Either he was seriously injured or he was trampled to death on the spot.

Therefore. For a time this thousand-man cavalry team. With a big loss.

At the same time, because of such troubles, the formation of the charge was also disrupted.

Companions and warhorses in front. is already blocked in the way of the charge, so what to do with the people behind.

I have to say that the five-stage musket technique is also quite effective when used on crossbow arrows.

Hey!

Seeing that the situation was a little chaotic, the Eight Banners cavalry immediately began to reorganize, preparing to bypass the companions in front of them and attack from the flank.

But at this moment, a dull roar came from the enemy formation, and then a team of people armed with iron spears and transparent shields, and a very strange helmet and costume rushed over.

Yes, this team is a Kyushu thousand-man team wearing an 'explosion-proof suit'.

The person who commanded this team was Gotaro Yoshida, who was named by President Kobayashi.

This team of 1,000 people rushed over quickly, but it was only a distance of more than 200 steps, which was not very far at all.

In a blink of an eye, this thousand-strong team came over, quickly rushed into the Eight Banners cavalry, and began their slaughter.

Purchased from the virtual world, the spear made of sporting goods is very sturdy and covered in fine iron.

Those Houjin cavalrymen on war horses, the steel knives in their hands could not cut those spears at all.

This is very different from when they fought against the Ming army.

The spears of the Ming army were all wooden shafts, and at most an iron spear head was inlaid in the front.

But most of the time, the spearmen of the Ming army did not even have an iron spear head, and the body of the spear was so rotten that it could be cut off with a single knife.

The reason is very simple, those generals of the Ming army took out the excellent weapons and sold them for silver. Therefore, the weapons that soldiers can use are basically very inferior.

Even, some soldiers had no weapons at all, and only went to the battlefield with a wooden stick.

This situation is very common in the Ming army, and many officers in charge of this are mostly blind to this.

Those low-level soldiers, who cares about them.

Therefore, when the Later Jin Yeming army fought, it often took advantage of some advantages and advantages in terms of weapons.

But today they are facing a different enemy.

The Kyushu soldiers who belong to the empire, because they have been cared for by the empire, are really rich in the empire.

Therefore, in terms of weapons, it will definitely not be as miserable as the Ming army.

Ten soldiers were in a group, six of them holding transparent shields in front of them, and four soldiers with spears behind them were constantly stabbing their spears in their hands.

There are a hundred such teams.

The orderly queue, even in the face of the counterattack of the Eight Banner Knights, did not shake their pace in the slightest.

Moreover, with the advance of these hundred squads, there will be many Eight Banner knights who will be stabbed off their horses, and they can't even fight back.

Slaughter!

It was a naked, one-sided massacre.

What it was like for the Eight Banners cavalry to feel hopeless for the first time.

Sou!

Poop!

One of the Eight Banners shot an arrow in his hand, and then he was pierced by three spears and fell to the ground with a shaky body, and then a cat enemy came up with a knife and slashed him in the neck.

And the arrows shot by this unlucky guy were swept away by these enemies with transparent shields, and they did no damage at all.

This skirmish began quickly and ended quickly.

About a few dozen cavalry fled back, and most of the Eight Banners cavalry were killed here.

Speaking of which, Mang Gurtai was also careless, because he didn't know the way at all, and these enemies on the opposite side were definitely very powerful for small battles.

For no other reason, the usual battles in the Wa Kingdom were just thousands of people.

Therefore, in such a small battle, the Japanese must have the advantage.

Seeing that his cavalry was routed in front, he only fled back a few dozen horsemen.

Mang Gurtai's face became extremely difficult to look at.

Yes, he came with a lot of confidence, and he didn't think there was any opponent here who could stop his troops.

However, now he kicked the iron plate, and also lost a big face.

An elite cavalry of the Eight Banners Thousand Men was simply disposed of by the enemy on the opposite side, even so easily.

On the other hand, the thousand-man cavalry of the Eight Banners didn't even have a chance to fight back when the enemy attacked, and it completely became a one-sided massacre.

I really want the sun your mother!

Mang Gurtai couldn't help but burst into a foul mouth!

"Whole army! Offensive! “

Because of the momentary defeat, Mang Gurtai also lost patience.

He decided to attack with all his troops, and in one fell swoop he had to destroy the enemy on the opposite side, but this time he was a big loser, and if he didn't destroy the enemy, how could he pick up his face.

And the governor of Kobayashi on the opposite side also sensed Mang Gurtai's intentions, and immediately asked Yoshida Gotaro to lead the army back to the main formation, and then let the army change formation to form a boxy turtle formation to deal with the crazy attack of the Eight Banners Army next.

At the same time, the herald from Jay Chou's reinforcements also arrived at President Kobayashi's Central Army... (To be continued......)
