Chapter 54: Juehua's counterattack began

Yuan Qi and the others, who could only chop swords, were fully armed, stood with horizontal swords, and silently pressed the formation for the artillery crew.

Not far away, Zhao Shujiao, Yao Fumin, Jin Guan and other high and low generals cheered for the soldiers under their command in a deep voice, and then said to each other earnestly and cherished, and then entered the pre-predetermined position to resist the enemy, ready to fight to the death.

The main general, Zhao Shujiao, was draped all over his body, and although he did not immediately step on the war horse, he also sat quietly on the edge of the war horse and closed his eyes to recuperate, ready to lead his 1,000 cavalry to launch a counter-charge at any time.

"Swear to let Jiannu know, what is called a tiger out of the gate! Swear to build a slave to lead the teaching, what is called a general who rushes! "This is Zhao Shujiao's last encouragement to the 1,000 direct subordinates.

And these boys, who were at most twenty-five or sixteen years old, did not roar in response, but they all patted their chests heavily, showing their determination to fight the enemy until the last moment.

This kind of atmosphere of soldiers and generals sharing weal and woe, and generals taking the lead, spread to every corner of the island, and even permeated the sky over Juehua Island.

Huang Chongzhen seemed to feel that a certain consciousness was in the hearts of the Juehua soldiers, and gradually awakened, so he also roared in a low voice: "Juehua Juehua! Awaken China! ”

The people around him also roared in a low voice: "Juehua Juehua! Awaken China! ”

This silent and high-spirited, even some impatient military spirit, made Huang Chongzhen feel very pleased, even if he died in battle, he would have no regrets about ending this trip to the Ming Dynasty.

It's close! Jiannu's cavalry is closer!

Huang Chongzhen has the best eyesight, and even saw the drape of the two burly knights in front of him from a distance, and one of them was dressed as a smart horse and a proud horse, and he was dressed as a super nobleman of Jiannu.

"Baylor? But I don't know who it is! Huang Chongzhen was slightly moved.

Looking at the color of its drape and the scale of Baylor's honor guard, and then carefully observing the blue flag with gold edges, he knew a lot about the military system of the Eight Banners, and he was faintly happy in his heart: "It's the three Baylor Manggutai of Jiannu!"

The best and most like to charge straight forward, brave is brave, but it lacks a meticulous insight ability that the battlefield should have! But I don't know if the adjutant general is Wunag?

If it is a pair, then this battle will definitely be tragic and abnormal, but as long as our army persists, then the balance of victory will definitely slowly tilt towards our army at the moment when the war is burning to the hottest! The final victory must be ours! ”

Mang Gutai led his army about five miles from the mouth of the Yan Dynasty, and then waved his hand to stop the pace of the whole army's advance.

He stared at the projectile island in the distance for a moment with a pair of bull's eyes, and saw that although a large number of boats were stranded on the island or frozen in the sea, they could not move, but the whole island was too quiet, and he was somewhat puzzled.

"What's the matter, Third Master?" Seeing this notoriously reckless Baylor, Wuneger, who was beside him, frowned and pretended to be pretentious, so he deliberately asked in a loud voice.

Mang Gutai glared at him lightly, and said: "Before setting out on the expedition, Lao Ba found this king and reminded him that the Juehua Ming army was shocked that our army was coming, and it would be a wolf rushing and panicking.

But you see, there is no such phenomenon on the island, but it seems extremely calm, as if no one is there. Do you think there will be fraud? ”

Wu Neg pinched his chin and looked into the distance for a moment, then nodded very seriously and said, "That's really the case." ”

Mang Gutai glared at him dissatisfiedly and said, "This king is very serious about discussing the enemy situation with you again. ”

Wu Neg flashed his small eyes and said with an innocent face: "The slave general is serious, this is the most serious attitude of the slave general." Besides, how is this possible? After all, we're a surprise attacker!

It is impossible for Juehua Mingjun to realize that when evening is approaching, my Dajin Iron Cavalry has quietly arrived! ”

"It's better to talk to you about the military than to talk to you about the military. But that's right, behind this king is a whole cavalry force of 10,000 people! The Jurchen is not satisfied with 10,000, and it is invincible!

Even if the Juehua Ming army is aware and guarded, but the moat is lost, there is no fortified city and artillery, and the boats and ships cannot move an inch, and they can be captured with only one surprise attack! ”

Mang Gutai muttered, and Xuan felt that he was indeed making too much fuss, secretly thinking that maybe it was Yuan Chonghuan's cunning of the dog thief that made him angry.

So, he no longer doubted him, and resolutely issued a military order: "Wunag! Inherit the king's military order! The whole army raids Juehua! But all the living creatures on the island! Slaughter! Leave no piece of armor behind! ”

"Wow!"

Upon loud order, Vunag quickly divided the 10,000 cavalry into 12 teams, each with 600 to 1,000 men, one of which protected Mang Gurtai and supervised the battle in the rear, and he personally led one team in the middle, thinking that he was commanding the Chinese army in battle.

With a wave of his big hand, the low charging horn belonging to Jiannu sounded "whining", and the first group of cavalry suddenly attacked, the sound of horses' hooves was dense and dull, and launched a tentative pounce towards Juehua Island.

"Good time!"

As if the Juehua Ming Army, who had been waiting for a century, was in high spirits, Huang Chongzhen applauded even more, and then gave a loud order: "Red-clothed cannon!" The farthest gun emplacement! Ten shots ready for a row! Reload! Hook the line! Ignition! Put! ”

The speed of the Jiannu cavalry is indeed very fast, and the professionalism is indeed very high.

Once the military order was issued, it was fully engaged in the battle.

The powerful physical ability cultivated in the white mountains and black waters was quickly exerted to the extreme, and the speed of the war horse was increased to the extreme at the fastest speed, which can be called an instant, and it was only two miles away from Juehua Island.

And at this moment, Huang Chongzhen's "release" was also worthy of export, and as his broad and powerful hand pressed down fiercely, the three red-clothed cannons emitted an earth-shattering roar at the same time.

Each of the tiger's muzzles roared ten times in a row, and a total of thirty shells lined up in a dense queue.

Thirty beautiful parabolas carrying intense sparks were drawn in the air, and they smashed head-on at the first group of Jiannu cavalry that rushed towards him, the six hundred cavalry, which was Wunege's temptation of Juehua Island.

But Huang Chongzhen doesn't care if he tries or attacks, he only needs to achieve one goal, and that is - to take the lead! By the way, let the thick sea ice withstand the first wave of shells!

Zhou Ji, Peng Qi, and Lao Liu had already honed their artillery skills to the point of supernatural in the Battle of Ningyuan.

Therefore, there was hardly any gap between the thirty cannon sounds, and their earth-shattering sound spread far and wide over the vast sea level like a muffled thunder, and it lasted for a long time.

Whether it was Mang Gutai or Wu Nage, although they had seen the roar of the cannon under Ningyuan City and the impact on the war horse be fatal, they obviously never thought of it just in case, and ordered their subordinates to block the ears of the war horse.

As a result, Jiannu's war horse was the first to be extremely panicked, but he couldn't restrain his legs, and still galloped forward with the equally frightened cavalry on his horse.

At this moment, the Ming Dynasty bought a lot of money to restrain the Jiannu cavalry, and the cavalry of the Jiannu relied on to cross Liaodong and overcome the former suzerain, Daming, came to meet head-on!

The three strongest Jiannu cavalrymen, who had rushed the fastest, opened their eyes wide in horror, almost watching as three shells smashed into their heads, and then they were covered with artillery fire that was so fast that it was impossible to react.

In an instant, the Jiannu cavalry turned on their backs and scattered in panic.

At the same time, it also indicates that the Juehua counterattack with the tactics of "defensive counterattack" formulated by Huang Chongzhen has officially begun.

"The red-clothed cannon, the ruler of Jiannu with all the bells and whistles!" Seeing this, Zhou Ji immediately applauded loudly.

Huang Chongzhen only stared at the twenty-seven scorching cannonballs that followed the three head-to-head shells, and smashed into the Jiannu cavalry formation that followed, directly killing and wounding thirty or fifty horsemen.

These thirty-five horsemen were trampled into meat sauce by the hooves of the horses that followed the galloping horses, and at the same time, they also played the role of stumbling blocks, so that more cavalry fell on the ice in horror because they were caught off guard, and slid out of the long distance, but they were very close to Juehua Island, but there were very few who could stand up.

The first group of more than 600 cavalry, because of a round of artillery bombardment, lost nearly 200 cavalry, the first face is so heavy, this invincible army across Liaodong, has never faced.

The rest of them all subconsciously reined in the panicked horses, skated around the ice, and when they saw that there was no follow-up cannonball, they screamed again, and the brute beasts rushed towards the land on the island.

"Good guys!" This fierceness made even Huang Chongzhen have to praise it secretly in his heart.

It is no wonder that hundreds of years later, at Bali Bridge, in the face of more fierce artillery fire, the descendants of this army still dared to charge with the most primitive tactics.

The ending is self-evident, the defeat is extremely miserable, extremely miserable, but it also achieves the final swan song of the traditional cavalry.

The dark chamber of the red-clothed cannon was terrifyingly hot in an instant.

The auxiliaries of the artillery crew hurriedly covered the wet towel and unscrewed the tail button, carefully cleaned the gun chamber with professional tools, and at the same time allowed it to quickly dissipate the temperature and cool down so that it could be put into use again.

But this period of time is still a rather terrifying gap period, enough for the Jiannu cavalry to land on the island.

Most of the trees on the island have been cut down to make firewood, leaving only a few stumps in just the right place to tie wire.

Therefore, the land outside the defense line was very empty, and the Jiannu cavalry, who had withstood the artillery bombardment, would never have thought that in these battlefields that belonged to them, they were full of devils who could make them fall into the abyss.

They galloped on the land that had not been seen for a long time, and seemed to see the scene of slaughtering the male soldiers and civilians on the island and exploiting the female soldiers and civilians.

So his mouth roared and roared, and he swooped towards the very small and short so-called dragon city in front of him with great excitement.

"Maintain the maximum range! Adjust the gun position to the left! Chongzhen yelled.

He didn't know how to use a cannon to deal with these cavalrymen, they belonged to barbed wire, to firecrackers and crossbowmen.

If there are still fish that have slipped through the net after the layers of blockade, then there are infantry waiting for them with knives and guns in their hands, and the strong people on the island are also holding all kinds of rustic tools to defend the island, waiting silently.
