Lord of Ming Dynasty
Page 221
The spearmen in front thrust their spears into the ground, and the formation was still in chaos, like a sawtooth. The archers and crossbowmen on the left and right were still in a curved shape and hadn't converged yet.
The Qing army had already divided the two wings of cavalry, and the rain of arrows poured into the formation of the pikemen, and dozens of pikemen fell down immediately. When Ming Ming's formation was stalemate, the Qing army had already brandished machetes and charged forward with spears.
The cavalry on the two wings shot a wave of arrows, and the horses had already swept tens of meters in front of the archers and crossbowmen on the two wings. There was another wave of arrows, and the archers and crossbowmen immediately fell down. Scattered waves of arrows were shot, and the flying cavalry of the Qing army had more than a dozen fallen horses on each side. The horses dragged the corpses of the dead, or the wounded Qing army continued to outflank the two wings.
At this time, the artillery was still in the deployment stage, and only one or two cannons had been loaded. One or two cannonballs were fired, and the shells grazed the heads of the pikemen in front, and plunged into the formation of the Qing cavalry assaulting from the front.
Immediately, thirty or forty Qing cavalrymen were swept all the way, their horses fell to the ground, their stomachs were broken, and the cavalry's stumps and arms were broken.
When the frontal assault cavalry of the Qing army collided with the spears, the horse neighed suddenly and fell to the ground in grief. The cavalry behind continued to charge, jumped over the cavalry in front, and continued to attack the formation of pikemen.
The spearman quickly opened the gap behind, and then formed an formation to protect himself. The sword and shield hand quickly put the shield on top of his head, and swung the knife in his hand upwards.
It can be said that in this wave of assault, the Second Field Brigade suffered heavy losses, especially the pikemen in front. The front line has been abandoned, and they can only face the enemy's follow-up cavalry alone.
The second-line pikemen and sword-shieldmen organized defense in front of them, and used hasty battles to contain the enemy's attack and buy time for the musketeers behind.
Of course, their death or their casualties were not lost in vain. They also caused some damage to the enemy. Ready to go.
With a gunshot like an order, the spearmen and sword and shield soldiers in front quickly fell to the ground, and then the gunshot like fried beans sounded.
Bullets flew over their heads, some injured them, and most of them hit the Qing cavalry who were obviously taller than them.
The archers and crossbowmen on the two wings were also quickly supported by the sword and shield soldiers nearby. The sword and shield soldiers cut into their formation and used their shields to protect them from harm. The enemy, flanked by marching Musketeers, was blocked by other battalions.
The trained Musketeers know what to do at this time, because the Huaxia Army is a little different from the army of this era. They will conduct deduction and exercises in various situations. It started, and there was an exercise report every month. In response to various battlefield emergencies, every hundred households in each battalion, officers above the general must learn and master it, otherwise they will fail the assessment and go down to serve as the general flag and small soldiers.
So the Qing army's cavalry archers who attempted to outflank the two wings were tragic.
Gunshots like stir-fried beans sounded on their way forward.
The formation of the Huaxia Army was like a wave, with ripples. In the ripples, the formation of the previous exercise was quickly used, and a countermeasure to adapt to this situation soon appeared.
This doesn't require Feng Wuyu to adjust anything.
It was completely spontaneous and quick by the officers below. At most, the officers of the first level of defense communicated with the sound of flags and horns. After a little adjustment, the formation of the response came out and was unified.
"Boom—"
"Boom—"
The artillery that has gained time can be positioned quickly or deployed on the spot, with three artillery positions at one base point, and the surrounding guns can quickly adjust their formation, change the protection of the protection, block the enemy's blocking enemy, coordinate and coordinate.
It seemed that the entire battlefield was in chaos. Due to the lack of mobility, the Huaxia Army was attacked by the Qing cavalry at close range. It looked like a panic, but in the eyes of the senior officers of the Huaxia Army, the situation was very orderly and reached To meet the requirements, actual combat and exercises may not be perfect, and there are some flaws, but it is the best way to deal with it, and this way has worked, preventing the enemy from attacking.
Didn't you see that the cavalry of the Qing army had already started to flee?
Yes, the Qing army has already begun to flee. There were more than 2000 Qing cavalry when they attacked, and about [-] or [-] cavalry when they retreated. The rest were either surrounded or turned into corpses or wounded on the ground. There are also scattered cavalry who are still stubbornly resisting, and are likely to break through the siege and escape, but the Huaxia Army won this assault.
Maybe not yet victorious, just defeated the enemy's side attack.
Soon, Feng Wuyu, who had already reacted, began to give orders to the entire army, and saw the rear, that is, the right wing, and about 3000 Qing army cavalry rushed over. It should be Mongolian cavalry according to the situation.
The back road is only a group of cavalry and scout cavalry in the rear, and further to the side is a group of musketeers. After suffering losses, a group of archers and a small group of crossbowmen retreated to the rear to regroup.
A little to this side is a group of pikemen with little loss.
"Guards, go up," Feng Wuyu shouted loudly.
Immediately, he led the two hundred cavalry of the personal guards to rush up. At this time, the rear cavalry on the right wing had already bravely greeted them, buying time for the rear formation adjustment.
There are about 100 cavalry in this team.
The artillery Qianhu Battalion in the center of the formation is bombarding the fleeing Manchurian cavalry with 9-pound cannons.
The team on the left wing was quickly gathering the team, and the heavy soldiers rushed out from the center of the formation, ran to the position of the front-line pikemen who had fought just now, and dragged the wounded and the corpses of their comrades back to the center of the formation.
On the right wing, in the rear, the remaining remnants quickly handed over the wounded and corpses to some lightly wounded and took them back, and then quickly formed a blocking position on the flank. Form a protective array.
This time the musketeers were transferred back, and the musketeers protecting the central position quickly attacked. The archers and crossbowmen were flanked by two teams, aiming at the Mongolian cavalry rushing forward.
Like the point of a needle pointing at the wheat, the cavalry of the charging rear team directly crashed into the cavalry team of the opponent, and the cavalry tactics that the Mongolian cavalry was good at were too fast to implement, or they released a round of arrows, and they had not drawn out the arrows again. At that time, the loss was not large, and the cavalry of the rear of the Huaxia Army who told the move had rushed into their team, slashing with their knives.
Of course, it's not that they don't have short-fire guns, but at this time, no one thought about pulling out the short-fire guns. Maybe the short-fire guns can inflict heavy damage on the enemy, but it will definitely give the enemy a chance, because the enemy is also rushing at high speed, and the short-fire guns hit After finishing, they had no chance to draw their sabers at all, so they just drew out their sabers and rushed up.
Compared with the "cavalry company, attack," in the TV series "Cavalry Company, Attack," which is a fake movie performance that makes people excited by shouting a slogan, they are the cavalry that should be respected the most.
The cavalry in Liangjian didn't see blood when they cut each other, and they didn't see blood from the enemy. Here, they not only saw blood from the enemy, but also from themselves. The two sides killed the sloppy.
Compared with the bright sword cavalry company, which is full of handsome men and beautiful women, they are really bloody men, because bright sword is surrounded by others, for their own performance, and they don't want to do that at all, just rush to kill, it's nothing It means that they are the cavalry of the Huaxia Army.
"Kill—" Seeing the hundreds of cavalry in front and the dozen or so scout cavalry behind them sacrifice themselves for others, for the safety of the army, in order to buy time for the army to counterattack, they rushed to the group of Mongolian cavalry without hesitation. With a shout, he rushed up with his guards.
From the discovery of the enemy to the preparation, it took only ten minutes or a quarter of an hour. It took only a quarter of an hour from the first Qing cavalryman to shoot the first arrow, and it took only a quarter of an hour for Feng Wuyu to charge. While adjusting the formation, the entire [-] Qing cavalry was divided into two teams and attacked the second field brigade from two directions.
Soon the first charge of the Huaxia army's guard cavalry disappeared into the vast Mongolian cavalry army, directly piercing through most of the enemy's cavalry formation.
Feng Wuyu's cavalry also rushed up, and the enemy was about to turn around to avoid them, and even forgot to shoot arrows, use the maneuvers that the Mongols are good at, and fly kites.
They were obviously running for their lives.
Chapter 3 Nine Small Victories
Just as the Mongolian cavalry of the Qing army was retreating like a wave, the dragoons of the second field brigade of the Qing army and the Manchurian cavalry who had fled from the other direction intercepted the Mongolian cavalry from the side.
Instead of rushing in directly and using sabers to solve the problem, they paralleled the scattered team of Mongolian cavalry and fired a volley at the thousand Mongolian cavalry fleeing on the flanks with special short-barreled matchlock guns on their backs.
Then nearly 200 Mongolian cavalrymen fell off their horses, and the following Mongolian cavalrymen were in chaos. At this time, the dragoon cavalry team of the Second Field Brigade of the Huaxia Army had rushed to a distance of 40 meters enough to be fired with a short-fire gun.
The Mongols did not show weakness, they bent their bows and set up arrows one after another, and shot a wave of arrows at the dragoons, but they didn't gain much. Few of the bows and arrows could hit the enemy on the bumpy horse, and only caused three damage to the dragoons. 50 people were injured, and then the two rounds of short-fire gun shooting by the dragoons had been completed. The dragoons threw away the short-fire guns in their hands, pulled out a short-fire gun again and started shooting.
After two rounds of shooting, the Mongolian cavalry's flank was depleted.
Throwing away the short-fire guns in your hands, there is no time to insert the short-fire guns into the saddle pockets now, and the remaining cavalrymen drew their sabers and rushed up, slamming headlong into the Mongolian cavalry team fleeing in the other direction, throwing the Mongolian cavalry behind. The ranks of cavalry were cut off from it.
There are only more than 80 cavalry hunters around Feng Wuyu. After all, they are attacking 100 Mongolian cavalry. The [-] cavalry in front have already suffered heavy casualties. Only a few cavalry were lucky enough to escape. To their own formation, the dragoons coming from the flanks just passed behind them, and they would intercept the Mongolian cavalry brigade fleeing to the other side. They only needed to chase the fleeing Mongolian cavalry in front.
In the distance, horns sounded again and again, the field brigade that had already left the battle was forming a team, and then chased up in battle formation. A team of [-] cavalry was rushing back, guarding the heavy soldiers and engineers behind, as well as the wounded and militiamen.
The artillery has already lined up and slowly retreated into the center of the formation. A solid defensive formation is being formed. Although the enemy has already fled, the battle is not over, and they are still on guard.
One of the two sides chased and the other fled, and encountered a large infantry unit of the Qing army that was marching five miles behind.
The Mongolian cavalry passed through the large army of the Qing army, and Feng Wuyu had to retreat with the cavalry.
While the dragoons were chasing and killing the fleeing Mongolian cavalry all over the mountains and plains, the Manchurian cavalry had already retreated into the enemy's main force.
"Wuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu , While retreating, he picked up the corpses and wounded of his comrades-in-arms on the ground, pulled them directly on the horse's back, and then took them to the rear.
