Chapter 460: Entering the Net
The town became empty again, even the logistics officers and soldiers in Dezhou City were withdrawn cleanly, the battalions of the first army have been in order, Gao Jie led his 20,000 horses to leave the town and go north for five miles in the wilderness, ready to welcome the arrival of guests, of course, the high standard of welcoming guests must have a salute, and the only artillery of the Ming Army has been in place and waiting!
Buck is the deputy flag owner of the blue flag, and also the supreme commander of the Qing army, which is nearly 10,000 horses, he was instructed by Abatai to lead the army to Texas in order to explore the depth of the Ming army here, can be improvised, if the Ming army is less and defeated, more, it will lead the enemy deep, if it is not out of the city of Texas, it will be surrounded so that it can not send troops to rescue Jingzhou!
The army pulled out the camp, the spies went first, and the Qing army did not have a smooth journey after the river, and it could even be said that they stumbled every time they passed through a city and a place, so the generals under Abatai had a long memory, and the march became more and more careful, and Buck was naturally no exception, and he casually scattered several teams of nearly 100 spies to explore the way!
Sure enough, the news kept coming, and soon after the army set off, the spies reported one after another that there were Ming troops stationed in the town more than 30 miles away from Jingzhou, and the number of people could not be found, because the Ming army also scattered a lot of hidden piles within ten miles around the town.
Although the exact number of people is unknown, experienced spies have deduced from the size of the town that there are at least 30,000 horses entrenched in it! Buck laughed when he heard the news, Thirty thousand! Wave the hand!
But he is also worried, not worried that the Ming army will set up an ambush, this is a plain, there is no danger to defend at all, and fighting field battles is his forte, what he is most worried about is that the Ming army here does not have those monsters, so he released spies to continue to investigate!
By the time the army advanced more than ten miles away from the town, the latest information from the spies had arrived, and no monsters were found, but the Ming army had already put on a posture to greet them. And the number of people is indeed as expected, more than 30,000 people! At this time, Buck laughed even more happily, and wanted to win more than few, dreaming! Moreover, intelligence shows that the cavalry of the Ming army only accounts for one-third of the troops, and it is impossible to be their opponent at all!
"Rest on the spot for a stick of incense," Buck ordered. Looking at the vast wilderness, he laughed, "Today, let's give Lord Belle a big gift!" ”
"Your Excellency should not underestimate the enemy, in case the Ming army has an ambush!" There will be a reminder.
Buck smiled, "Where is he in Pingchuan, there is no way for the Ming army to have extra men and horses here." Besides, even if there is an ambush, why should I be afraid of him! Having said that, no one likes to be beaten by others, but Buck still ordered the spies to touch the surrounding wilderness within ten miles to make sure that there were no ambushes before he was truly relieved!
The black clouds were rolling, and there was a faint sound of thunder, Gao Jie looked up at the sky: "Is this going to rain or snow?" ”
"It's probably going to snow", Guo Hu, the general next to him, looked at the sky and whispered, Gao Jie laughed: "It's quite appropriate, I don't care about life and death today." Guys are going on a killing spree! ”
Although Gao Jie said it was heroic, he also knew in his heart that in this battle, his Gao battalion would bear the brunt of the battle, and the casualties would be absolutely heavy. But fortunately, Zheng Hong still has a heart, and he didn't run away by himself at the critical moment, thinking about it, he couldn't help but look at Zheng Hong and Li Qingshan not far away!
The Qing army was all cavalry, and the lethality of the cavalry on both sides was too powerful. However, Gao Jie's men and horses were mainly infantry, and Zheng Hong didn't want to see him rout as soon as he received the recruitment, so he took his first regiment and Li Qingshan's second regiment to stand next to Gao Ying and carried the banner of the vanguard together. Now they're just patiently waiting for the guests to come to their door!
It's finally time for the war! After Buck finished resting, he led the army to come to the door slowly and leisurely, and saw the big battle of the Ming army in the wilderness three miles away, the black pressed human head, the black pressed sky, everything was black, and the blood that would be shed for a while was also black, Buck smiled at the corner of his mouth when he thought about it!
"Sons! Eat this Ming army for me in one go! Buck roared, and there was an earth-shattering sound behind him, and tonight the Qing army shouted: "Kill, kill, kill!" ”
"Kill!" After a while, nearly 10,000 cavalry immediately rode their horses and sprinted, and the shouting Chaoming army rushed over, and the momentum of 10,000 horses galloping was always terrifying!
But there is a sound, more frightening than this momentum, that is, the sound of explosions, the vanguard of the Qing army just rushed out not far away, then saw a black shadow in the sky getting closer and closer, and couldn't help but be shocked, "there is an artillery ......" before they had time to dodge, there was a loud bang, and the screams were repeated on their horses.
As mentioned in the previous part, the explosive power of a ten-liter gas canister is equivalent to 150 kilograms of kick and kick explosives, and the explosive power of three thousand grenades, the consequences do not need to be tabled, imagine that such an explosion is surrounded by dense cavalry, how high the damage points are, and hundreds of people were killed in an instant, and the more important damage was actually a stampede caused by the cavalry who had no time to brake at the back!
As soon as the explosion started, Buck's heart was cold, and his face instantly turned black, there was such a powerful artillery, like the one a few nights ago, but it seems that there are not many such artillery Ming troops! As long as you rush to the opponent's formation, the victory is still your own!
However, there were two or three miles away from the front of the battle, and every short moment a shell fell into the cavalry camp, which made Buck grit his teeth in distress, it turned out that this Ming army relied on this artillery, trample them into flesh for me, Buck shouted heartbreakingly!
Erlidi, for the cavalry love to talk about the fleeting, Gao Jie's iron gun in his hand clenched tightly, even sweating, but he was unconscious, now his eyes and attention are on the Qing cavalry that is getting closer and closer, and he can't care about anything else!
Closer, closer, three hundred meters, two hundred meters...... Zheng Hong felt that his heart was about to jump out of his throat, every time he started fighting, he would be like this, in the face of the tide of thousands of troops, he might be submerged and swallowed in the next second, it was impossible to say that he was not nervous!
When the two armies are fighting, the distance of two hundred meters is usually the moment when death comes, because this distance happens to be the best range for bows and arrows, and it is also the first scramble before the hand-to-hand encounter. Zheng Hong shouted, the crossbow archers of the first and second regiments immediately stepped out to pull the trigger one step ahead of the Qing army, and the sky became darker at some time, and the locust-like arrow rain covered the sky and went straight to the Qing cavalry, and this wave of damage was definitely tens of thousands of points!
As the old saying goes, shoot a man before a horse. But all experienced soldiers understand this truth, when the enemy is galloping on horseback, shooting people may not be shot, even if they shoot, the death is only a pawn, and the galloping horse may instantly trample the shooter to death, but the damage caused by the horse is mostly down, the horse falls, the soldier is absolutely difficult to spare, and more importantly, it can also cause the rear of the rear-end, the chain reaction consequences are very considerable. For example, now the cavalry of the Qing army is in chaos, which is caused by the advantage of the crossbow of the Ming army in terms of range and bursts!
"What are you waiting for, brothers, kill the Tartars!" Seeing that the three waves of arrow rain had passed, and the Qing cavalry was in chaos and had rushed to within a distance of 100 meters, Gao Jie shook the spear in his hand and rushed out first, "Kill the Tartar!" "The two armies fought together in an instant!
"I'm going to kill them all, I'm going to kill all the Ming dogs", Buck watched from the rear as the Ming army's arrow rain inflicted damage on the cavalry. His eyes were red, and now he finally knew why this Ming army dared to put on a posture to fight with him, it turned out that he was relying on the tip of the weapon, after the four cannons and the rain of arrows just now. The Qing army suffered at least 2,000 casualties, which completely angered Buck!
The sky was getting more and more overcast, and even began to drift up splinters of snow foam, and the two armies were fighting hard in the wilderness five miles below the sky. One by one, they forgot their fears and the cold, and they had only one purpose, that is, to kill the opponent in front of them. Because either he dies or I die!
Only more than ten minutes after the start of the war, the field combat power of the cavalry of the Qing army has begun to show its superiority, the Qing warriors began to train strictly since childhood, more than ten years of actual combat experience, the brave and invincible force instantly made the Ming army feel great pressure, although the nearly 20,000 horses of the high battalion were all invested, although the men and horses of the first regiment and the second regiment were also invested, although nearly 30,000 people resisted the Qing army of more than 8,000 people, but they did not resist, and began to retreat step by step!
Zheng Hong, as the commander, did not participate in the battle, but under the protection of a team of personal soldiers, he held a telescope behind the battle to check from time to time, his face was calm as water, no joy and no worries, but suddenly said: "Gao Jie's combat power is so high!" ”
"I heard that Gao Jie was born with divine power, and he can lift a thousand catties with one hand on the left and right, although this person is short, he is extremely brave, and his body is flexible, and his title of mountain harrier is not called in vain!" A pro-soldier beside Zheng Hong said.
"I have the opportunity to learn from this product", Zheng Hong also felt very good about himself, obviously unconvinced, and the telescope swept around the battlefield from time to time, and suddenly sighed: "I finally know why Master Hou recruited Tian Jianxiu!" I'm afraid he is the strongest force in our Ming army! ”
It turned out that although Tian Jianxiu belonged to the deputy head of the Fourth Regiment, he was now also transferred to play the vanguard, because Zheng Hong took a fancy to his combat strength, and at this moment he was leading a team to the middle of the main force of the Qing army.
"Domineering!" Zheng Hong couldn't help but praise it, and the soldiers around him smiled, "Is the regiment commander itchy and want to have a discussion!" ”
"Forget it, I'm not his opponent!" Zheng Hong is self-aware!
"Commander, it looks like we can't hold on!" A pro-soldier suddenly said, sure enough, at this moment, the Ming army has begun to slowly retreat, while the Qing army is pressing step by step!
"If you can't hold on, you can go", Zheng Hong said and turned the horse's head, this thing actually ran away with his own soldiers!
At the same time, Buck behind the Qing army also saw it, and a smile rose at the corner of his mouth, "The Ming army is defeated, hum!" Relying on the large number of people and a cannon, these bright dogs are really arrogant! Order, leave no mouth! As he spoke, he drew his saber and slapped his horse and rushed into the battle with his own soldiers, this is to charge into battle in person!
The Ming army fought and retreated, resisting to the death, it seems that it is ugly that it does not want to lose! The generals led by Gao Jie each took their own soldiers to fight hard in the Qing army array, although there were many people, but the combat power was really unbearable, and they were full of anger, but they were not the enemy of others!
"Regiment commander, there should be the general of the Qing dog", when Tian Jianxiu was rushing to kill, a personal soldier suddenly pointed in the distance, only to see a team of Qing troops just joined the battle, invincible, no enemy, the momentum is very arrogant.
"Kill it!" Tian Jianxiu's long knife flew in his hand, slashed and killed several Qing soldiers, and immediately advanced in the direction of Buck with his own soldiers, and at the same time, Buck obviously saw the heroic and invincible Tian Jianxiu, and his face showed a vicious look, just use this person's dog head to cut the blade for my war knife!
The enemies are very red when they see each other, that is the plot of the TV series, Tian Jianxiu and Buck have no hatred and no grudges, but each is their master, the two groups of people follow the natural contact, and start shopping with the flow, there is no close-up, no nonsense, you don't have to fight directly to greet each other, both of them are brave and fierce generals, you come and go, and it is not an exaggeration to say that the world changes color when you kill, because Xiaoxue floated up!
"Commander, retreat, we are about to be surrounded!" Tian saw that Xiu was killing in anger, and suddenly heard the voice of his own soldiers, he was shocked, and took advantage of the gap to take a look, gasping for air, sure enough, he was too deep into the enemy's main force, while other friendly troops were slowly retreating, and he was about to be deeply trapped by the Qing army!
"Clear the dog, take your life", Tian Jianxiu was in a hurry, and the long knife slashed violently, making Buck in a hurry, angry in his heart, and just about to exert his might, but found that Tian Jianxiu turned around and began to flee with the pro-army, yes, the Ming army began to withdraw and flee!
Buck couldn't help but have a happy face, "Kill"! With a wave of the long knife, he personally led the army to chase and kill the fleeing Ming army, and it seems that today's great achievement has been decided!
The Ming army was still fleeing, the town was close at hand, and the joy on Buck's face slowly spread, "The warriors of the Qing Dynasty have raided their nest and captured Texas City!" ”
