Chapter 206: Destroy

f The development of the army is a process from simple to complex. In the beginning, armies were armies, all the same, and they swarmed forward when fighting.

Later, there were distinctions between chariots and infantry. Later, there were established cavalry and specialized archers. Chariots were gradually replaced by cavalry, and cavalry evolved and subdivided into heavy cavalry and light cavalry. The archer branch was further divided into archers and crossbowmen. The infantry is also subdivided into swordsmen, spearmen, etc., and they are also divided into heavy and heavy.

And the specific tactics on the battlefield are becoming more and more complex. Collaboration of foot and cavalry, synergy of foot and bow, synergy of bow and cavalry, etc. Under the same conditions, a single military unit does not have an absolute advantage.

There are currently only five arms under Ying Yi's command. Artillery, spearmen, musketry, cavalry, and night soldiers. At first, the Ye Bu Shu as a separate unit was disbanded, the ministry-level troops were expanded, and a battalion of Ye Bu Shu was established under it. A complete system has been formed at the ministry level.

Forming a complete organization with a total of 3,000 people and five arms coordination.

As for the ministerial-level organization, the number of personnel varies among the five arms. The number of spearmen is the largest, followed by musketry, the third by cavalry, the fourth by night, and the smallest by artillery.

There are three thousand people, one third of whom are spearmen, which is an establishment of one thousand people. Of the 750 gun soldiers, most of them were here. Five hundred cavalry, 400 at night, and 350 artillery.

More than 10,000 Tatar cavalry rushed into the formation. Facing three rounds of bombardment from seven troops and more than a thousand tiger squatting cannons, their morale was at least half destroyed.

Their tactical experience was still limited to fighting the Ming army. When fighting against the Ming army, both sides would set up their battle formations, or first use coats to consume the Ming army's firearms, and then charge into the formation with their fine cavalry. In field battles, they would often collapse immediately.

But this time Abate was trying to break through, and wrapping was not considered. He directly charged into the battle with fine cavalry, imagining that the firepower of Ying Yi's army was the same as that of the Ming army, so he suffered a big loss.

Nearly four to five thousand men were lost, and morale plummeted. However, both Abatai and the remaining Tatar soldiers believed that as long as they crossed this distance, everything would be fine. But then the gunslingers frightened them again.

Compared with artillery, gunmen are more lethal.

More than five thousand musketry soldiers lined up and fired three consecutive shots. After the Tatars entered two hundred steps, the musketry hardly stopped. When the Tatars rushed to the front of the formation, almost half of them fell on the way to the charge.

At the time of the battle, there were at most 5,000 bustling Tatars left.

What made Abatai even more desperate happened - the invincible Manchu and Mongolian elite cavalry were beaten to a bloody head in front of the heavily armed spearmen!

You can't even see the slightest crack!

Whether it's a mace or a chain hammer, if you use your horse power and hit it with a hammer, the spearman will take two steps back at most and only make a tiny white mark on the iron can-like armor, that's all!

And their usually strong armor, whether it is single-layer armor, double-layer armor, or even triple-layer armor, is like paper when faced with the sharp spears of the spearmen, and is vulnerable to a single blow!

Just like how they fell under the muzzle of a gunner before, their armor was no longer enough to rely on!

By the time Zheng Wu ordered the cavalry on both wings to attack, the Tatars were on the verge of collapse.

...

The battle started on Zheng Wu's side, and Zhu Bingkun did not show any weakness. Especially when Abatera took away all the elite cavalry and left behind all the Baoyi, the Baoyi were powerless to fight back against Zhu Bingkun's offensive.

The so-called coats are the minions and slaves of the Tatars. Among them, Koreans and captured Han people accounted for half each.

Their main duty, apart from serving as cannon fodder for the Tatar soldiers in Manchuria and Mongolia, is to serve as auxiliary troops to transport military supplies to the Tatars.

Their fighting prowess can be imagined.

When Abatai led the fine cavalry into the battle, 20,000 Baoyi were about to follow him to break through, but were intercepted by Zhu Bingkun.

There are often not many tricks in the tactics used in battle. It's nothing more than shelling first, then gunfire, and finally engaging in hand-to-hand combat.

There is no mercy on the battlefield, whether Koreans or Han Chinese. Before surrender, there is only one word, kill.

Zhu Bingkun's troops attacked with several rounds of artillery and defeated the 20,000 soldiers. Then the cavalry, spearmen, and gunmen attacked directly, chasing them all over the mountains and plains.

At this time, Ying Yi had already arrived at Qingshankou Pass. The three thousand fine cavalry left by Abatai were useless in front of Ying Yi.

The sword light was vertical and horizontal, the air exploded in bursts, and the lotus-like air waves bloomed. Every time it bloomed, dozens or hundreds of people died under Ying Yi's sword.

These three thousand Tatars were smart enough to attack Qingshan Pass, clearly intending to break through Qingshan Pass and escape from here. But before they could break through Qingshan Pass, they all fell at the foot of the pass.

After killing these three thousand people, Ying Yi made no move and turned back to Qingshan Pass.

At this time, the situation on the battlefield was already clear.

The Tatars were defeated.

At about this time, Wang Yisheng's troops, who were blocking Xifengkou, also hurriedly arrived.

On the battlefield that stretched for about five or six miles, the defeated Tatar troops were trapped in it. The battle lines in the south and west became tighter and tighter. The Tatars fell to the guns of the soldiers one by one, and finally gathered at Qingshankou Pass. city.

"Lord!"

The four major captains came to Ying Yi covered with war smoke.

Ying Yi stood with his sword in hand, his burly body like Mount Tai.

"My lord, this battle is over. Please tell me!"

Zhu Bingkun beat his chest and clasped his fists, and shouted loudly.

Ying Yi nodded slightly: "What is the result of the battle? Have you ever calculated it clearly?"

Zhu Bingkun said: "The seven soldiers and horses under the command of the last general and Lieutenant Zheng Jiu have beheaded 17,000 people and captured 3,000 people. Soldiers, armor and supplies are not included."

Zheng Wudao: "The seven troops under the command of the last general and Lieutenant Qian Yue have beheaded a total of 14,800 people and captured one person, not counting the armor and materials."

Ying Yi nodded slightly: "It's all done."

Then he said: "Are the soldiers injured?"

Zhu Bingkun said: "The captain of our headquarters suffered thirty-three casualties, twenty-nine wounded, and four killed."

Zheng Jiudao: "The captain of our headquarters has thirty-one casualties, twenty-seven wounded, and four killed."

Zheng Wudao: "The captain of our headquarters suffered 477 casualties, 421 wounded, and 56 killed."

Qian Yue said: "The captain of our headquarters suffered 501 casualties, 472 wounded, and 29 killed."

Hearing this, Ying Yi said: "After all, there are still casualties."

But it was within the scope allowed by Ying Yi - the total number of casualties was less than a thousand, and less than a hundred people were directly killed. If people knew that this was the damage caused in the battle of annihilating nearly 40,000 Donglu, I'm afraid it will scare people off their feet.

Regardless of the sophistication of weapons, armor and other armaments, or the average physical strength of the soldiers, the soldiers under Ying Yi's command have reached a very powerful level. Such a result was not beyond Ying Yi's expectations.

Artillery and muskets are powerful, while spears and daggers are sharp and sharp. Their body armor is armed to the teeth and is tough and indestructible. No matter how ferocious the Tatars are, they are still made of flesh and blood. How can they be invincible?

Zheng Wu and Qian Yue's troops suffered hundreds of casualties. This was due to a head-on collision with nearly 15,000 Abatai's elite cavalry. Most of the casualties suffered by Captains Zhu Bingkun and Zheng Jiu were accidentally injured while chasing down the defeated Bao Yi.

After all, the battlefield is chaotic and anything can happen. Unless the physical fitness of all soldiers reaches 3 or above, we can guarantee that there will be no casualties.
