This was the first confrontation between the Han family and the Manchurian cavalry archery on the field battlefield.

Although the outcome was undecided, it surpassed several levels of barbaric civilization and won the first battle.

Dolgon knew that the locust used this kind of firearm when it entered Xiping Fort more than a month ago, and his eyes were immediately split, but he firmly believed that there must not be many such magical long-range attack weapons.

He firmly believed that Manchurian cavalry archery was the most powerful way of fighting in the world. Its strength even surpassed that of the Mongol cavalry, because the Manchurian cavalry was not only able to exert extremely strong combat effectiveness in open areas.

Snowfields, woods and other terrain cannot be restricted. Because the Jurchens are different from nomads, they are a fishing and hunting people.

Therefore, just when the faces of the generals around him changed drastically, Dolgon pointed forward with his sword and shouted, "Attack!" ”

Yue Tuo hesitated, but he didn't dare to disobey the military order, and personally led the team to surround him, after all, Dolgon was known for his cruelty, and how much the self-proclaimed Jurchen Baturu was a blur of flesh and blood under his whip!

Yang Guozhu is also a ruthless character who does not hit the south wall and does not look back, he is still not afraid at all when he sees this, only staring at one direction of the enemy and digging through, that posture is like a reckless man who will not give up if he does not chisel through the cave.

Unlike Wu Sangui, the main wife is not married, but there are many concubines. Drill and stab here, the consequence of unloved love is that no one can be satisfied, and no one will give up on him.

Yang Guozhu showed the spirit of screws, and even Yue Tuo couldn't stop it.

Dolgon was also moved: "This king originally thought that Wu Sangui was already a rare fierce general of the Ming army, but he didn't expect anyone to be more brave than him. Suo Etu, do you know about this general of the Guanning Army called Yang Guozhu? ”

A young general in the rear of the side bowed slightly and said, "Qi Qi Baylor, this person is extremely familiar with locusts. ”

"Locusts again!" Dolgon was indignant in his heart, but said on his face, "Tigers are never friends with domestic dogs, and that locust is indeed a little bit of a way." Let's go Sony, let's kill this little locust! ”

"Wow!" As he spoke, Dorgon slapped his horse forward, literally charging.

Although Sonny was a scribe, he also received the order and followed closely behind.

The population base of the Jurchens is not much, and most of them live in the form of tribes between the white mountains and black waters.

The tribal system was the most effective way for this ancient people to overcome the harsh environment, and after the Nu chieftains unified the Jurchens and conquered the Haixi Jurchens, a series of measures were taken, which led to a slight increase in the population. However, the perennial conquest and the bitter cold living environment have made the birth rate and growth rate of this ancient race still not very high.

Especially in the losses in the battles of Ningyuan, Juehua, Ningjin, and Dengliao, it is even more stretched.

In order to make up for the loss of troops, and in order to have enough troops to support this detour battle that was also a behemoth with a huge amount of money, Huang Taiji captured many savage Jurchens from the forests of the far north.

Dolgon was the closest of the Eight Kings to the Slave Chieftain, much more cruel than Huang Taiji.

The savage Jurchens who belonged to him were all personally sent to the Far North Forest to capture them, and they were also very tame.

It is precisely based on this that he has enough troops to lure Wu Sangui into Xiping Fort at the eastern end of the Liaoxi Plain while Huangtaiji detoured through Mongolia, surrounded and annihilated him.

It is too late to say that it is too fast, and the situation on the battlefield is changing rapidly.

The distance between the two sides was rapidly approaching because of the galloping of the war horses, and after the second barrel of muskets, the arrow rain of the Jiannu cavalry came like locusts, and Yang Guozhu was the first to shout: "Raise the shield!" ”

In fact, without his orders, the iron cavalry under his command have long been familiar with the tactics of the Jiannu cavalry.

When I dream at night, I don't always call spring like Wu Sangui, who has kidney deficiency, but shouts kill.

At the same time, they are also thinking about how to defend against these tactics.

Jiannu's cotton armor gave Chongzhen a lot of inspiration, and it was mixed with some silk. This new type of armor with a layer of stripped iron is somewhat similar to the body armor of later generations, and can effectively block the wolf tooth arrow clusters of Jiannu.

If this type of armor wanted to be exquisite, the craftsmanship must be extremely complicated, but it was not for the sake of beauty, so it was quickly mass-produced. Although the time was short, the cavalry equipped with Yang Guozhu was more than enough.

The weight of the knight is reduced, so the horse itself can be better protected.

"This is what Guan Ning Iron Rider should look like! It is the real Guanning Iron Ride! ”

Seeing Yuan Qi, Yuan Ba, Yuan 13 and others wearing this set of armor, riding on a tall horse, carrying a musket and a machete, and a shield hanging on the neck of the horse, Chongzhen was sincerely admired.

Compared with the three-eyed bird gun and heavy armor that Yuan Chonghuan drew up, no matter the attack, defense, the distance of the attack, the speed of the attack, and the physical strength of the war horse and cavalry, I don't know how much it has been improved.

The most important thing is - range! The range of the musket is difficult to surpass even the most courageous Jurchen Baturu.

"Tuk Tuk Tuk ......"

The shield protected the face door and neck and other places that could not be protected by armor, and the Guanning iron horsemen, who had long put away the long-handled muskets, leaned down and found one of the standard configurations from the crook of their legs - short muskets, scientific name: "pistol"!

"Ming people don't talk about martial arts, they don't talk about martial arts!" Yue Tuo kept an eye on it, and let the bravest Baturu rush ahead, he was also considered a brave general, but this time he shrank slightly behind.

Seeing that another group of sturdy Eight Banner cavalry had been shot off their horses at such a close distance, Yue Tuo shouted wildly. However, there is no better way, and in addition to weapons, courage is also very important in the confrontation between the two armies.

The moment of hand-to-hand combat has come, and this is the Jurchens' dominant project.

However, the Ming and Han families are not muddy, especially the Guanning Iron Cavalry who has been tempered by countless wars.

These Northeast men who let out a final roar held a shield in one hand, and a thick-backed machete with an elongated hilt in the other, turning over and over were those two moves—horizontal slash and vertical slash.

Jiannu's cavalry camp was a little scattered because of several rounds of long and short musket volleys, and although Yang Guozhu's Guanning iron cavalry did not have an advantage in numbers, the cohesion was very strong, and rushing into the enemy formation was a fearless and wanton slashing.

That desperate Saburo's posture is even more savage than that of the Tunguska savage.

All of a sudden, the Jiannu cavalry, who boasted of being invincible in Liaodong, was really a little stunned.

Yue Tuo led his own soldiers to do everything they could, so that they could resist it.

However, with the addition of Dolgon himself, the situation on the battlefield quickly tilted in favor of Jiannu.

He even sent Sonny to lead another army around the city, forming a small but extremely strong encirclement, and seeing that Wu Sangui had fled to a farther place, Dolgon finally showed a cruel sneer.
