Chapter 50: The Ignition of the Battle of Salhu (An Addition to Book Friend Wanlu)
The horse lance was the first sharp weapon in the Sui and Tang dynasties, and many famous generals in history were famous for being good at using a horse lance. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Even, at that time, whether or not to use this horse lance was a sign to distinguish a famous general. And the production of the horse lance is actually not difficult, on the contrary, it belongs to the kind of people who have a little military common sense, and they know how to make the horse lance.
Therefore, it was very popular in the Sui and Tang dynasties, and people such as Qin Shubao were famous for their horse lances.
It's a pity that at the end of the Tang Dynasty, because the horse lance was expensive and cumbersome to make, this horse lance was gradually replaced by a spear. It's just that when Gu Xiao formed this forest department, he still specially chose this horse lance as the weapon of his forest department.
Perhaps, in the eyes of others, this lance may have become a weapon that has been obsolete, and it is simply outdated. But in Gu Xiao's eyes, in today's era of cold weapons, there are no weapons that should be eliminated at all, only weapons that are not suitable.
This lance is extremely tough, and once the lance is used as a weapon in the hands of the infantry, it must be very powerful to form a spear array. What's more, strictly speaking, the horse lance is not much different from the spear, but it is almost one size larger.
Anyone who can use a spear will basically be able to learn to use this lance after a period of training.
Therefore, after training his soldiers and horses to form a spear formation, Gu Xiao began to prepare the horse lance. After a day and night journey involving hundreds of craftsmen, this batch of horse lances was finally made. In the month before departure, Gu Xiao had been training to let his forest soldiers and horses learn to use this horse lance.
Fortunately, he did not waste his money in vain, and after exterminating several Tatar tribes in the steppe who did not obey the king, the soldiers and horses up and down the forest department learned how to use the horse lance.
At this moment, the spears are like a forest, and these soldiers and horses are constantly stabbing out the horse lances in their hands in unison, in this dark scenery. This horse lance, which had been eliminated in the eyes of everyone, soon showed its terrifying power. The lance stabbed at the enemy in front of them one after another, making it impossible for these cavalry to resist.
At the same time, the father and son of the wild boar skin were already black-faced.
Because in the dark. Although they also have no way to achieve complete control of the army, they can still hear the movement in the darkness.
After all, Jianyu at this moment is not the kind of Eight Banners Uncle who can't even speak Manchu well in later generations, but an elite who truly retains the most primitive wildness of the Jurchens. Among these people, I am afraid that there are really not many people who can speak Chinese. Therefore, under this dark night, the wild boar skin father and son can be heard completely, and in the dark sky, almost all that sounded were the screams of their golden elite and the angry scolding before death.
"What the hell is going on?" The boar skin couldn't hold back any longer, and wanted to rush out again.
In such a short period of time, it can be described as a real big ups and downs for wild boar skin, because in such a short period of time. He was disappointed, then hopeful, and finally despair. Because of the pitch darkness of the night, he couldn't tell what kind of troops Gu Xiao took out this time, so he gave the order.
And the Jianyu cavalry, which was opposite Gu Xiao's spear formation, had now basically been stabbed into toads, and went down to accompany their brothers, and no one could answer the question of wild boar skin. Therefore, the boar skin now feels that this battle is in a daze, and he doesn't know his warriors at all. What the hell happened!
At this moment, the wild boar skin finally couldn't bear his murderous nature anymore, and wanted to rush out and go into battle in person.
"Amma!" It was still Huang Taiji, who grabbed the horse head group of the wild boar skin and once again stopped the wild boar skin from wanting to go into battle in person.
"Eighth. Get the hell out of here! The wild boar skin whipped Huang Taiji's fat face fiercely, and scolded angrily.
Huang Taiji shouted, "Amma! You are the Great Khan of my Dajin Kingdom, how can you personally go into battle? ”
"And what do you say now?" After being said by Huang Taiji, Wild Boar Skin finally began to calm down, remembering that he was no longer the commander of the Dragon and Tiger Guard (Here, Wild Boar Skin did not rebel before. He used to be the commander of the Dragon and Tiger Guard in Liaodong of the Ming Dynasty, and he was an official and a third-class official, which can be said to be the emperor's favor. It's just that when he saw that the Ming Dynasty had weakened, he continued to accumulate strength, and finally chose to rebel after the death of Li Chengliang's father and son. It's the lord of the newly established Dajin Kingdom, and this kind of thing is no longer suitable for him to appear in his own body.
Huang Taiji listened to the screams that kept coming from front of him, and he was also anxious. After a while, Huang Taiji finally gritted his teeth and shouted: "Amma, there is no other way now but to ignite the fire!" ”
Hearing this, the wild boar skin scolded angrily: "Ignition? Eight, you're crazy! If the fire is ignited, wouldn't it expose the position of my Dajin soldiers and let Geng Shaonan, that little barbarian, slaughter the soldiers of our Dajin Kingdom? ”
When the other seven Baylors around heard this, they also glared angrily at Huang Taiji. There's no way, now everyone is dark-eyed, and they basically can't recognize anyone else except for the person in front of them. But if it was ignited, wouldn't it expose the location of the entire Dajin army, and let the Ming barbarians discover their location?
Huang Taiji looked at the angry eyes of the brothers around him and the wild boar skin, and said with a wry smile: "Amma, brothers, do you think that even after lighting the torch, you really have to lose, no matter how bad the situation is, can it be worse than now?" ”
"Ahh Huang Taiji's voice fell, and in the ears of all the people, a miserable scream had sounded again, and this scream continued to sound one after another, almost all of them were their Jurchen voices.
Listening to the screams that kept ringing in his ears, the wild boar skin gritted his teeth fiercely and shouted angrily: "Come on, give the order to go down and light the fire!" ”
At this time, the wild boar skin also figured it out. Indeed, even if the torches were to be lit and their positions were revealed, the situation could not be worse than it is now. Now that the battle has been fought, there is still something that the wild boar skin himself does not understand, they can be said to have lost the game, and they are powerless to turn things around.
As an old sparrow on the battlefield, this is well known to the wild boar skin. It's just that even if he really wants to lose, Wild Boar Skin wants to know how he lost!
At this moment, beside the wild boar skin father and son, there are almost thousands of elites of the headquarters who are really guarding the safety of the wild boar skin father and son, they are also the absolute elite and diehard loyalists of the Aixin Jueluo family, and most of the people in public are still the clansmen of the Aixin Jueluo family.
Therefore, after hearing the order of the wild boar skin, these loyal servants of the Aixin Jueluo family immediately lit torches one after another, and soon, surrounded by thousands of soldiers and horses, the battlefield that was originally very dim because of abnormal celestial phenomena began to flicker one after another.
"Hahahaha!" It was still ecstatic laughter, but this time the person who laughed wildly was replaced by Gu Xiao.
It was under the firelight of this Jianyu that he finally saw the whole picture of the battlefield thoroughly. At this moment, in front of him, there were already piles of corpses of Jianlu, and these Jianlu, who could not form a systematic command system under the dark canopy and effectively counterattack their own horses, had already suffered heavy casualties.
Although his horse lance soldiers were only 2,000 people, in this dark environment, there were few people, and in fact there was not much difference.
Because, under this celestial phenomenon, almost all the order will be completely disrupted, and they can only fight on their own. And his own horse soldiers, relying on the tacit understanding that has long been deeply rooted in the bone marrow, have an overwhelming advantage over Jianyu in the part.
Right in front of his eyes, Gu Xiao could clearly see that under the background of the torches, the corpses of Jianyu were already about 20,000 together, and the other Jianyu who survived were all terrified.
"Damn, it's the Lance!" The wild boar skin recognized what Gu Xiao's pikemen were in his hands at a glance and scolded angrily. As a person who had a grudge with Lin Dan Khan of Mongolia, of course he knew that Lin Dan Khan's men had an iron lance army of 50,000 men, and they had fought each other.
Therefore, at first glance, he recognized what this thing was in the hands of Gu Xiao's soldiers and horses.
"Rush me, tear these damn horses to shreds!" The boar bark roared hoarsely. At this moment, due to the appearance of the firelight, the soldiers and horses who could only fight separately were suddenly re-established a complete command system in a short period of time.
After knowing what the hell these damned enemies were up to, Boar Skin immediately roared.
I have to admit that the military experience of wild boar skin is indeed good, after he saw Gu Xiao's spear array for the first time, he decided to deal with these horse lances, and chose to press all the soldiers and horses at the first time, wanting to crush all the horse lance soldiers who were left with more than 1,000 horses.
It's a pity that Gu Xiao won't give him this opportunity.
"Charge!" Looking at the panicked look on the face of the enemy in front of him, Gu Xiao gave the order for a general attack without hesitation. At this moment, Jianyu is bold, and he is no longer able to save the defeat, it is the best time to charge into battle and have a decisive battle! (To be continued.) )
