3-17 Scuffle

Zuo Ling, who rushed to the front, subconsciously kicked one by one to hide, he suddenly felt that the war horse hit something hard, paused and continued to move forward, but soon fell to the ground, the head of the war horse flew into the air, and a cavity of horse blood spurted out, something! There was a "woo" poignant sound of breaking the air, two iron balls connected together with long iron chains turned weirdly, flying to the comrades behind, the head of his war horse was cut off by the iron chain, and the speed of the iron ball was slightly reduced by a certain resistance, but it still smashed a whole team of flag soldiers behind with huge energy, Zuo Ling saw that the heads of the brothers who got along day and night were broken, and the hands and legs were broken and died in front of him, and his eyes were about to burst fire, he shouted, drew his saber, and continued to charge towards the position of the Han dogs, he wanted to avenge the brothers, He cut off the operators of the iron pipe, but the cowardly dogs on the opposite side obviously didn't give him this chance, and he didn't go a step away when he was shot through the throat by an oncoming arrow.

It was Liu Ziguang who shot this arrow, he took the method of accurate shooting, every arrow must hit, and the shot was the throat, Wu Sangui next to him was already stunned, although his archery skills were not bad, but compared with Liu Ziguang, it was still obviously downwind, because General Liu shot three arrows every time!

Relying on ten crossbows and hundreds of archers and sparse thistles to block the charge of 1,500 elite cavalry of the Qing army is obviously unrealistic, even if you use the tactics of crowds to fill up people, you can attack it, Liu Ziguang has already had a countermeasure, Anthony's heavy infantry company has already connected the spears, and when the cavalry rushes over, they will be greeted by a more violent rain of arrows and the attack of Zhangba spears.

Ebilong felt that he had kicked the iron plate this time, but he was also more convinced that the Han dogs on the other side were cowards, and they didn't dare to come out to fight openly, so they would hide behind and release arrows. Hate! Endless hatred wells up in my heart, I must kill every one of them, no, I must be caught alive and tortured slowly!

Ebi Long's mouth let out an even more majestic cry: "Kill the Han dog!" The surrounding flag soldiers were in high spirits, and then all shouted "Kill the Han dog", and rushed over fearlessly in the face of the rain of arrows.

The flag soldiers shouted in Manchu, Liu Ziguang couldn't understand it, he asked Wu Sangui next to him: "Wu Qianhu, why are the Tartars shouting so excitedly, as if they have been beaten with chicken blood." ”

Wu Sangui hesitated for a moment and replied: "They are shouting to kill the Han dogs, the Tartars are unwilling to lose a lot, and they are already red-eyed, if they are allowed to rush in, I am afraid we will suffer." ”

Liu Ziguang was furious, and shot an arrow at the first person who shouted, this time he only took an arrow, and the eagle arrow roared away, and went straight to Ebi Long, who was an old soldier in the end, heard the sound of breaking the sky and ran to the door in front of him, and suddenly raised his shield, with a sound of "bell", the powerful force actually shook him off the horse, and hit a roll to avoid the trampling of the horse's hooves behind, Ebi Long noticed that the iron shield in his hand had been shot out of a hole, and his hand was numb, so strong strength, there was such a powerful guy in the Han dog, It's unthinkable.

The flag soldiers did not change the impact because of the fall of the main general, everyone continued to rush, victory was in sight, and the helmets of the Han dogs could be seen shaking behind the cart, fast, faster, and immediately avenge the brothers who died on the road!

Suddenly, the Han dogs shouted, and hundreds of people showed their heads together, each holding a wooden box in their hands, and some old soldiers couldn't help but exclaim, "Repeater!" ”

It is the Zhuge crossbow, the melee power of this weapon is very amazing, the iron arrows are very sharp, and they are all boiled in poison, as long as a little flesh is injured, it can quickly cause a coma, and in serious cases, it can also die on the spot. In addition to the light cavalry company of Zamuhe, the remaining more than 600 people each have a Zhuge crossbow, and the magazine of each crossbow is twenty arrows, if the arrow rain just now is moderate rain, then the current arrow rain is a torrential rain, and 12,000 arrows will fall on the ** hundred cavalry who rushed to the front in a moment.

The first to suffer is the war horse, they have no armor and shield, a large number of war horses screamed and fell to the ground, dressed like a large hedgehog, the flag soldiers who fell off the horse were also quickly shot down, they wanted to use bows and arrows to fight back, but the other party did not give them a chance at all, Zhuge crossbow reloading speed is very fast, grab a handful of arrows and put them in the magazine, there are magnets on the magazine, to ensure that the arrows will not slip out when the shooting angle is too large, the death battalion is some veterans, the cavalry rushed to the front and did not change the color of the reload, shooting, as if it was not a fierce enemy who was shooting, but a wild duck in the pond, and the two hundred coachmen were not ambiguous, and they were also experts when they played Zhuge crossbows, and they shot wherever there were many people. The bannermen were miserable, and they were shot in large numbers on the road of the charge without cover.

The two steam cannons can shoot again, and the idea of chaining two balls with iron chains is still something that Liu Ziguang thought of temporarily, so there are only two ammunition, but it is difficult for Zhao Zhangcheng, the new platoon commander of the artillery platoon, to take off his clothes and wrap a large ball of thistles, and climb outside the car formation to load the shells, because the gun truck is part of the car formation, and now he can't turn the gun body to reload, so as not to take the opportunity for the enemy to rush in, so he can only risk crawling out to load, and the surrounding artillerymen hurriedly concentrated their fire to cover the platoon leader's actions.

Zhao Zhangcheng crawled agilely on the barrel of the cannon, dodging the fluttering bow and arrows, reached the muzzle of the cannon three times and two times, stuffed a ball of thistle terrestris into the barrel, and then pulled out the wooden stick on his waist and smashed it hard, the clothes were loosely wrapped, and it easily fell into the barrel, but the airtightness may be affected to a certain extent.

I can't take care of it anymore, Zhao Zhangcheng just wanted to climb back, and suddenly he was hit by an arrow in his back, he reached out to pull out the arrow on his back, grabbed it twice and couldn't reach it, smiled at his comrades with difficulty, and fell off the barrel, the artillerymen shouted in unison, and the angry crossbow arrows shot in the direction where the arrows of the sneak attack platoon leader came, and he actually forgot to fire the cannon for a while.

More than a dozen flag soldiers rushed over with shields, they wanted to hack this guy who loaded the shells to death, Zhuge crossbow shot on their shields and clanked, seeing that the platoon commander was about to be chopped into meat paste, an artillery soldier finally remembered that the cannon had not yet been fired, and hurriedly pulled the cannon rope, the direction of the cannon muzzle was the dozen flag soldiers, with a loud bang, a hundred iron thistles terrestris were like a rain cover of death towards them, and in an instant, more than a dozen people and more than a dozen horses were knocked to the ground, and the sharp iron thistle shotgun was amazingly powerful, and the part of the hit was a blur of flesh and blood, There were a few guys in the middle of the face who were barely able to see their facial features. The flagmen were stunned for a moment, but soon realized that the cannon could not be fired again quickly, so they roared and continued to charge. But taking advantage of this gap, the artillerymen had already rescued the injured Zhao Zhangcheng.

The banner soldiers relied on the tactics of the sea of people, stepping on the flesh and blood of their brothers and war horses, and finally rushed to the front of the chariot, and some cavalry jumped directly from their horses, jumped to the top of the chariot, drew their sabers and slashed, even if they were hit by a few Zhuge crossbow arrows, they did not retreat.

The battle situation was chaotic, more brave bannermen rushed over, and the horses could not enter the chariot formation, so they dismounted and climbed in, and finally came to this group of cowardly Han dogs, and they could finally enjoy hand-to-hand combat

They were greeted by a spear eight feet long and the same brave Ming army, as the saying goes, an inch long, an inch strong, the flag soldier with a saber in his hand simply could not deal with such a long weapon. And they found that the opponent with the spear was not the color of the Ming army uniform at all, but an alien wearing high-end armor, with a high nose, blue eyes, and white skin, as well as all kinds of black skin and brown skin! Of course, the Han people also have it, and the common feature of these people is one word: ruthless! The shot is decisive and ruthless, and the movements are fast and agile, and it is definitely not an ordinary Ming army.

The enemy and I have mixed together, the bow and crossbow have lost their effectiveness, and the brave wins when the two armies meet, and this kind of white-knuckle combat depends on the usual level of training and the soldier's will to fight. These people under Ebilong are all elite soldiers personally trained by Ao Bai, the general under Prince Rui, who has experienced a hundred battles and is invincible. Whether it is horsemanship, archery, or knife skills, they are all first-class, and even the Zhenghuang Banner Xiao Cavalry Battalion may not be their opponent. The 400 infantry of the death battalion are also excellent breeds that have survived all kinds of hardships for a long time, can fight bravely, have good physical fitness, and have a strong desire to fight. It's comparable, but the weapons and armor of the death battalion are better. The muffled sound of gold and iron clashing and weapons entering flesh sounded from time to time, and the top and bottom of the chariot were mixed up everywhere, and flesh, broken arms, and human heads flew in all directions.

Liu Ziguang pulled out the white rainbow knife and shouted: "Follow me!" Wu Sangui saw such a scene, and couldn't help but boil his blood, and drew his saber to lead several Ming army flag officers who had long been eager to try it to join the battle.

Liu Ziguang is like a tiger into the wolves, a white rainbow knife is really like Bai Lian, the flag soldiers will die when they touch it, and they will die if they touch it, this is the first time that the white rainbow knife has killed people in his hands, and the sharp blade is cut on the cloth copper nail armor of the flag soldier as sharp as cutting tofu, and gradually within a large circle with him as the center, no one dares to approach.

Anthony and several other company commanders and Wu Sangui also stood alone, and the Qing soldiers who were killed retreated again and again, with casualties everywhere.

The Qing army and the Ming army fought, all relied on the bow and horse skill, high morale, in the early years into the Shanhaiguan, a Niu Lu Qing soldiers can chase tens of thousands of Ming troops to flee without their lives, now it is not as good as that year, more than ten years of comfortable life has worn out the fighting spirit of the warriors, the officers and soldiers of the Ming Dynasty have gradually recovered their courage, relying on advanced weapons and sufficient logistics, in the siege war, positional warfare, defensive warfare can almost have a slight upper hand, only the field wave war and such an encounter is not the opponent of the Qing army.

But today's situation is very different, and the iron thistle sprinkled on the ground earlier shows that the other party has already prepared. It seems that the endless crossbow arrows and the Zhuge Lian crossbow with one hand greatly surprised everyone, and now they are rushing up to hand-to-hand combat so strongly, and they are not inferior at all, even Yuan Chonghuan's personal army is not so powerful. There is also that young general, a knife dance like a splash of wind, so many brave brothers were hacked to death in front of him, I am afraid that General Ao Bai is like this. What are these people? A hint of timidity gradually surfaced in the hearts of the flag soldiers.

Ebilong looked around, there were only more than 300 soldiers who were still insisting on fighting, which was significantly less than the other party, and the brothers were surrounded by groups of enemies in groups of three or two, and gradually solved it with spears, knives, and crossbows. If this continues, the whole army will be wiped out in a short time, no, we must not leave the lives of all the brothers here, we must leave some seeds, and we must go back to the camp to report to the general, and let General Ao Bai come to avenge us.

With tears in his eyes, Ebi Long shouted "Withdraw!" As soon as the order was issued, the flag soldiers did not like to fight, turned around and left, looking for a war horse that could be ridden, and quickly left the battlefield alone or in two, and the death battalion did not chase after them, but reopened the crossbow and fired a parabola with a crossbow arrow at a raised angle to see them off.
