Volume 1 Chapter 849 Reinforcements have finally arrived

The 6,000 men of Tianjin Sanwei soon came to the vicinity of Liangxiang.

Further afield is Wanping.

With so many people, it is obviously impossible for the Tatars not to find out!

Soon, as the large army marched towards Wanping, the Tatar rangers began to stalk and harass them in a group of 100 people.

"Ah!!!h

Xu He, who was sitting in the Chinese army, was hit by an arrow and fell to the ground in the team not far in front of him, and the screams immediately caused a riot!

Tan Lun and a scholar rode around the team and shouted loudly: "Don't mess up, the archers will come out to fight back, and the others will continue to move forward!" ”

"The firecracker reloads the ammunition, and the smoldering fire is broken!"

Fang Xi of the rear team rushed over on horseback in a panic at this time: "Big, sir, it's not good, there are Tatars behind us!" ”

Xu He rode on his horse and looked ahead, and scolded in a low voice: "What are you panicking about? ”

Fang Xi was so yelled at him that he didn't dare to speak, Xu He said loudly: "The whole army sped up, took advantage of the fact that most of the Tatars did not assemble, and quickly rushed to the east of Beijing!" ”

When they arrived at the eastern city, under the protection of the rain of arrows and cannons on the city walls, they could be stationed and fight against the city without worrying about the harassment of the enemy's cavalry.

Because most of the Tatars were looted in the north and east of the capital, only a small force of Tatar cavalry harassed them along the way.

Although there were losses, they were still within the acceptable range of everyone, and when the soldiers and horses of Tianjin Sanwei saw Dongcheng, the whole team cheered.

At that moment, the ground suddenly shook.

"The enemy is coming, the enemy is coming!"

Xu He's men and horses suddenly panicked, and many people ran around like headless flies.

Tan Lun, who was maintained in the front army, couldn't help but be anxious when he saw this, and led the men of Long Xiangwei to ride horses to gather the formation neatly, and they galloped around the front army while whipping the deserters who broke away from the team with horse whips.

Then, the sound of hooves got closer and closer, and I saw more than 2,000 Tatars riding from Nancheng coming towards the Chinese army of the three guards in Tianjin.

"Brothers of Tianjin Sanwei!" Xu He stepped on the stirrup and said loudly: "If you don't want to die, listen to me!" ”

"The sword and shield hand erects a shield to prevent the enemy from projectiles!"

The panicked crowd needed the backbone the most, and the situation of the Chinese army was better, and they quickly raised their shields to cover the front and upper parts.

Seeing that the Chinese army did this, the front army and the palace army finally began to raise their shields and start defending under the reprimand of the commander.

"The rear army surrounded all the grain carts for me!"

Since ancient times, the best way to resist the cavalry is the car formation, this does not need Xu He to say, the back has long been prepared, hearing the order, the rear army hurriedly drove the car to the front of everyone temporarily, although it was impossible to surround everyone, but it was also a semicircle, with a little defense!

When all this was done, the Tatar rain of arrows fell like locusts.

The crowd began to panic again.

"Steady!"

"Steady!"

"Steady!"

Xu He calculated in his mind while observing the distance on the other side.

At this moment, he suddenly waved the white rainbow sword and said, "Archer, shoot!" ”

The crossbowmen who had already been integrated by Tan Lun here hurriedly shot the arrows in their hands.

Although the Great Wei army used infantry bows with a longer range than the Tatar cavalry bows, due to a lack of discipline, most of these bows and arrows fell not far in front of the Tatars, and only a small number of them were fired into the Tatar cavalry, causing some minor confusion.

Xu He saw that the opponent's cavalry was speeding up again, and waved the sword in his hand again and shouted, "Fire Hammer!" ”

The five hundred musketeers of the three guards immediately stood up and raised their muskets towards the Tatar cavalry.

"Put!"

The explosion and smoke of the "All ......" suddenly made everyone unable to open their eyes.

When the smoke and dust cleared, everyone cheered in unison, and it turned out that although there were not many Tatars who were shot, the sound of firearms and the strange "ammunition" that whirled around suddenly made the Tatar cavalry forwards chaotic.

In fact, the Tatars have seen the power of firearms, but the reason why the Tatars are unscrupulous this time is because they have not encountered decent resistance at all from the beginning of their entry into the army to the present, and they have long forgotten the power of firearms for a while, which led to being caught off guard.

In fact, all this was expected by Xu He, only to see him take advantage of the chaos of the enemy to wave the white rainbow sword in his hand again.

Seeing this, the drummer next to him immediately beat the big drum next to him according to the previous agreement.

"Knock, knock!"

"Knock, knock!"

Just when the Tatars wondered what was going on with the drums, a group of more than 2,000 horsemen rushed out from behind them as if they were covering the sky and the sun.

These men wore pointed felt hats and strange dark green clothes, and rode as well as the men of their steppe.

The group of cavalry rushed past Wei Gou's infantry and ran into their own side.

Just as all the Tatars raised their weapons and prepared to meet them, the cavalry of the group suddenly made a roundabout, and every one of them drew his arrows as he made the corner, stood on the stirrups and aimed at himself and shot the arrows in his hands.

"Puff puff ......"

The arrows fired by these knights were not comparable to those of the Wei infantry, and in an instant, the Tatar cavalry fell like harvested wheat.

And Xu He's side still doesn't stop: "Archery!" ”

"Musketeer, ...... Shooter"

What is the most important thing about cavalry?

Wallop.

But the Tatars had just been disrupted by the Wei army's musketeers, and now they could only be beaten passively, and when the other party saw that the situation was not good, the sound of bullhorns immediately came out on the battlefield.

"The enemy withdrew!"

Everyone looked at the back of the Tatars being pursued by their own cavalry in surprise, and immediately cheered excitedly.

"Shut up!"

"Shut up!"

Officers at all levels hurriedly regrouped their ranks.

Especially Tan Lun, who constantly urged the former army to continue to move forward without delay.

Fortunately, it is not far from the city wall.

The Jurchen cavalry of the Dragon Guards drove the enemy away and then disappeared from everyone's view.

And the men and horses of Tianjin Sanwei have hurried to the bottom of Dongcheng at this moment.

The defenders on the city walls had actually seen the battle in the distance for a long time.

But when the banner of Tianjin Sanwei appeared under the city, the entire city wall was in a sensation.

"Ge Lao, look, it's Tianjin Sanwei, it's Tianjin Sanwei!"

"Ge Lao, I finally look forward to King Qin's soldiers and horses!"

"Brothers, cheer up, our reinforcements are coming!"

Yang Bo seems to be ten years old these days, and when he received the news, he was lying on the city tower with his clothes on.

Hearing the voice, he opened his eyes, his eyes were blazing, and his lips were trembling: "Yes, is it Tianjin Sanwei?" Did Elder Xu Ge bring them here? ”

"Yes, Ge Lao, it is the banner of Tianjin Sanwei, and it has been confirmed."

Yang Bo instantly pretended to be calm, quickly straightened his beard and said: "Okay, good, if you don't come to the city and have no food, you will suffer, quickly, help me go, help me go!" ”
