Chapter 1041: The Decisive Battle of Zhending Mansion (5)
The arrival of Song Jiaxing's Jingying army completely solved the crisis of Zhending Mansion, even if the strength of the Ming army is not enough to defeat the combined forces of Manchuria and Mongolia, at least it can be invincible, and Zhending Mansion will not be unable to hold it.
Even if Duoduo mobilized fifty or sixty thousand troops to besiege Song Jiaxing's Jingying army, the firearms of the Jingying army were too powerful, and the Beijing camp itself was equipped with artillery purchased from the West, as well as artillery transferred from the Firearms Bureau, plus some artillery in the second town of the Tianwei Army, and the artillery had not much less than Xu Yifan's Tianwei Army.
As for the musket battalion, the number is as many as eight or nine thousand, compared to the firepower of the main force of the Tianwei army, it is no longer below, of course, the power of the arquebus is still a lot worse than the flintlock musket, but it can still pose a huge threat to the cavalry, not to mention the eight or nine thousand troops.
Song Jiaxing used the artillery battalion and musket battalion to resist the main Manchurian forces of Jierharang and He Luohui, so that the main Manchurian forces could only return in vain, but the Mongol cavalry was not so lucky.
Because compared with the elite of Manchuria, although the Mongolian cavalry is not weak, but for so many years, the Mongolian cavalry has been in a civil war, and the Ming Dynasty has not fought for nearly a hundred years, and between Manchuria, it is only a small fight, and has not experienced a severe war test, and most importantly, they have not experienced the baptism of Tianwei weapons. The understanding of firearms was not as profound as that of the main Manchurian forces, and there was a lack of effective countermeasures.
10,000 Mongolian cavalry swarmed up, and launched a fierce assault towards the Ming army, but Zhao Zhenghang and Xia Wanchun were already ready, all the rockets of the Beijing camp army were pulled up, and dozens of rocket launch buttons had been installed with rockets, facing the Mongolian cavalry, and began to launch frantically!
Perhaps the deterrent power of rockets is not as good as that of artillery, but the damage brought to cavalry is not weaker than that of artillery.
Now it has gradually reached the Mid-Autumn Festival, in the fields, crops and grass began to wither, a rocket has fallen in the ranks of the cavalry, first the blazing tail flame caused huge damage to the cavalry, and then the rocket exploded, which also caused panic to the cavalry, especially the war horse, this is not the end, the flames and explosions, directly ignited the gradually drying grass and trees on the ground, in an instant, the flames on the battlefield rose, the smoke was billowing, the unlucky Mongolian cavalry rushed up, the formation was too dense to evacuate, None of this can be done in a short period of time.
The Mongolian cavalry fell into panic one by one, and kept making a terrible roar in their mouths, the formation of the entire cavalry was completely scattered, one thing fell one thing, the brine dotted tofu, if the Mongolian cavalry faced the Manchurian cavalry, it would definitely not be so embarrassed 10,000 troops, and it would be scattered when it went up, at least the combat power of the Mongolian cavalry was still very considerable, but in the face of a powerful rocket that had never been seen, the Mongolian cavalry was completely at a loss, and had never seen it, and in a panic, how could it come up with an effective response?
Dahu Khan desperately restrained the cavalry under his command, but now the smoke was billowing and the explosions were sounding one after another, and even the orders could not be effectively conveyed, and the cavalry was rambling around, making a mess!
The time has come!
Zhao Zhenghang and Xia Wanchun glanced at each other and instantly understood what the other party meant.
"All cavalry, follow me into battle! Charge! ”
Xia Wanchun shouted loudly and led nearly 10,000 cavalry to launch a surprise attack on the Mongolian cavalry!
10,000 cavalry against 10,000 cavalry, maybe Xia Wanchun is really difficult to take advantage of in peacetime, but today is different, one is caught off guard, fell into the crazy attack of the rocket, and was stunned; One is to come prepared, and the cavalry will directly assault.
In particular, the front of this 10,000 cavalry is the most brave Tianwei Army's second town elite cavalry, even if the strength is not much only more than 2,000 people, but the trump card combat power is the trump card combat power, even in the face of the yellow flag elite, the second town elite cavalry can gain the upper hand, not to mention that now it is facing the panicked Mongolian cavalry, which is naturally more unstoppable.
Rush!
Xia Wanchun has gone through the battle of Jianghuai, has matured, wielded the Zaoyang lance in his hand, directly rushed into battle, led the cavalry to rush up, a surprise attack, like a hurricane, instantly the Mongolian cavalry impact scattered, Da Hu Khan did not have the strength to fight back at all, 10,000 elite cavalry air self-combat power is strong, but it is useless, can not play at all.
"Retreat! Retract! The army will immediately withdraw to the North City! ”
Da Hu Khan was completely panicked, originally thought that the elite of the two yellow flags was already the most fierce combat power in the world, he was constantly defeated in the hands of the two yellow flags in the early years, and only then did he surrender to Manchuria, now it seems that the combat power of the originally weak Ming army is even more terrible than the two yellow flags of Manchuria, it is terrible, this kind of terrible is not analogous, no matter how strong the combat power of the two yellow flags is, it is also a face-to-face bloody fight, hand-to-hand combat; But the Ming army of the people does not contact you at all, and it is impossible to beat you by relying on firearms alone, and it is impossible to resist the attack of the scattered cavalry by dispatching cavalry.
Dahu Khan did not dare to fight again, and led the Mongol cavalry to turn around and run, and the Mongol cavalry began to urgently retreat in the northwest direction.
However, the cavalry of the Beijing camp did not have any too amazing moves, after all, it was a new army, and it was not so bloodthirsty, but the elite cavalry in the second town of the Tianwei Army was different, and they wanted to run? We're going to have to kill ourselves!
Pursuit!
More than 2,000 days, the elite cavalry of the second town of the mighty army rushed up from behind, bit the Mongolian elite cavalry to the death, and began to chase and slaughter!
Behind, the cavalry of the Beijing camp looked at each other one by one, wiping, these veterans are really ruthless, more than 2,000 people, they dare to catch up, and slaughter thousands of Mongolian cavalry, this is really no one!
"Are you all fucking stupid, chase after Lao Tzu, don't you see that the elite of the Tianwei Army has already caught up? Damn, chase after it, don't let these Mongol Tartars run away! ”
Xia Wanchun saw that the cavalry of the Beijing camp stopped, and his nose was crooked, and the elite cavalry of the Tianwei army, they were still too far behind, look at the spirit of the people, and then look at the cavalry of the Beijing camp, it is really not a grade, you should earn some face for Lao Tzu......
The cavalry of the Beijing camp suddenly came to their senses, yes, the elite more than 2,000 people of the Tianwei Army are not afraid, and we have at least six or seven thousand people, are you still afraid of hanging? Pursue! This time, we must drive the Mongolian Tartars to the sky, and there is no way to enter the ground!
