Chapter 494: Head-on strike, life fills the trench

The Ming army infantry who had started to rush forward from the morning were actually gradually exhausted. The side of the low wall was equivalent to the line of death for them.

Until now, no one has broken through the low wall, and was crowded by his teammates behind him, and then died in a tragic battle. Such a battle was fruitless, so who would like to die in front of him like this?

But the urgency behind was like a wave. A slight pause here would make the people behind him come and they could not move forward or retreat. From the beginning of the battle to the present, no one was yelling there in a mental breakdown, running around, and finally being killed by his companions.

Suddenly, the defense seemed to be as empty as a copper wall. The Shun Army soldiers who were shouting for fighting just now suddenly withdrew like a tide.

This situation was so sudden that the Ming soldiers who were rushing forward couldn't help but be stunned. The entire front, except for the continuous landfill on both sides, was completely quieted down, and what made them recover was the push of their companions behind them.

As soon as the "supervisor team" behind shouted and scolded, the Ming soldiers in front suddenly reacted, all of whom made excited shouts and howls, and rushed forward together.

The short wall piled on the edge of the trench soon collapsed under the trampling of these Ming soldiers, and the front was broken through?

Many Ming soldiers had this question in their minds, but this question flashed through and immediately became excited. They had the chance to survive. Run forward quickly and rushed forward quickly.

The entire Ming army's entire queue accelerated from front to back, and the entire brigade desperately accelerated forward. This was a torrent of tens of thousands of people. It seemed unstoppable and could destroy all obstacles in front of him.

The excitement also spread from front to back. Everyone ran forward with their legs spread out, fearing that they would be thrown off by the army. The attack just now fully demonstrated that the meaning of this comrade was nonsense. Yesterday, the comrades who were still stirring up a horse in a big pot would kill people because they walked a little slower.

Although the morale of the Ming army was extremely low, they could barely maintain a formation, each with its subordinates of officers. To give an analogy, the entire formation of the Ming army was like a big lake. The main formation led by several generals was Feng, and the front of the Shun army was the embankment.

The wind kept urging the lake water, causing waves of waves to hit the embankment. The embankment was firm and motionless. The water accumulated on the embankment became more and more huge, and the accumulated momentum became greater.

Suddenly the embankment disappeared without a trace, and the great force accumulated by the lake had nowhere to vent, so he could only rush forward desperately.

Originally, both sides were blocked on the line of about 500 steps, and they were crowded. Suddenly, the obstacles that were lost in front of them were lost, and everyone ran forward.

Before the soldiers of Shun Army retreated, there was a burst of rapid bows and arrows shooting, which slowed down the Ming army's rushing backwards. Taking advantage of this slowdown, the two sides had a distance. Shun Army soldiers hurriedly fled to the other side. In the battle just now, the Ming army needed to charge, while Shun Army only needed to defend.

The physical strength of the Shun Army soldiers is much more than that of the Ming Army soldiers. After retreating like this, it is easy to distance it and cannot catch up in a hurry.

What left the Ming soldiers was a very spacious space. After coming out of the narrow bottleneck of five hundred steps, the Ming soldiers' queue suddenly dispersed and rushed forward as much as possible.

The battle just now was a death-death battle. Suddenly, the Ming soldiers felt a little relaxed, even though they still had enemies in front.

On both sides of the trench of five hundred steps, there was still a distance to be filled. The crowded soldiers were constantly squeezed out from above, including those who were digging and filling the trench on both sides, were also slumped in the ditch by the sudden rushing army.

No one can care about them anymore. In the hearts of Ming soldiers, this deep trench is a boundary of death. After passing this trench, it is life, but this trench is death.

Everyone rushed forward, no matter how wide the formation was, it had to pass through the more than 500-step section, narrow, and then crossed the deep ditch, and the team widened again.

The troops that were already panicked could no longer be restrained. The running of this distance made the troops that were already in formation completely chaotic. The generals could not find soldiers, and the soldiers could not find companions. Everyone was running with weapons, without any rules and unconventionality.

Originally, observing the situation in the front, the cavalry who sent orders back and forth were moving through gaps between the queues, but in the face of such a general trend, they were already blocked by the soldiers rushing forward in a mess and could not advance or retreat.

He Renlong, Bai Guangen and Xu Dingguo, who were in charge of the battle behind the battle, were all a little dazed, thinking that it was an extremely difficult breakthrough, so why did it open so easily?

Seeing his troops rushing forward completely inappropriately, everyone felt no relaxation in their hearts, but instead felt a little unknown.

The messy infantry team rushed through the trench, and the Ming soldiers kept rushing straight towards the front...

I don’t know if it was a mistake in arrangement or what. The main formation where the King of Chuang is located is 600 steps away from the trench. When Yuan Zongdi’s front team infantry was fighting there, the back team would definitely waste time if they had to provide support. For veterans like Li Zicheng, they would make such a mistake.

Before the rebellion king Li Zicheng was in the middle army, there was no expression on his face. Instead, the leader of the guard Li Shuangxi next to him was extremely nervous, and he held the hilt of the knife in his hand and let it go.

Beside the King of Chuang Li Zicheng, there were cavalry and horses, and there were no infantry. This time, the main forces of the Shun Army were all concentrated in this area. There were almost 40,000 elite soldiers. Such cavalry combat power could also be called terrifying.

Li Zicheng watched the Ming army soldiers running closer and closer, and the entire queue became more and more dispersed, and raised his arms high. As the King of Chuang raised his arm, the soldiers holding the flag began to shake the flag. At this moment, the entire Shun Army cavalry formation began to become nervous.

The Ming army in front shouted and moved forward in chaos. The sound almost drowned out all the sounds. But the horse-ridden army's formation, except for the waving of the flag, had no movement, and was terrifyingly quiet.

The hustle and quietness were already very telling. The horse under the crotch of the King of Chuang Li Zicheng was a little restless, and obviously he had already felt this tense atmosphere.

King Li Zicheng of the King of Breaking off the reins, and the horse suddenly calmed down. It was said that the task was completed at this time, but he didn't feel any excitement in his heart.

Li Zicheng finally waved his arm, and the cavalry holding the banner drove the horses and rushed straight towards the front. The cavalry immediately rushed forward.

The cavalrymen holding the flag were not fast, they just trotted out, but when they moved, the sky collapsed and the earth broke. Most of the Shun army and horses, who had been preparing for power, began to move forward.

At the beginning, they controlled the rhythm of the horses, and only the sound of hooves was heard, and the formation slowly moved forward. The front line of the army and horse team was full of leaders and generals, and they had to control the speed of the entire team's advance.

There was no special movement, the speed started slowly, the overall speed slowly accelerated, and rushed towards the Ming soldiers in front.

With a distance of 600 steps, the Ming army soldiers rushed over more than 300 steps, and the remaining distance was enough to accelerate the cavalry and cavalry of the Shun army.

As the speed accelerated, the sound of the hooves of the tens of thousands of Shun army teams began to overwhelm all the sounds on the battlefield, and the ground on the entire battlefield began to vibrate.

The Ming army rushed through the trench and fought to the death, and the Ming army array, which was still in a little bit like this, had completely scattered. But the horses of the Shun Army were raising their strength and ready to go.

At this time, it rushed out and hit the weakest and most chaotic time of the Ming army. It was like a snake hitting the seven inches hard, which was extremely fatal.

The Ming army running around was no longer able to stop, and they had no way to form an effective formation to fight, and they could not even disperse the impact of avoiding the cavalry.

They have no way to go in another direction except for moving forward, because except running forward, the rest of the other direction will be pushed to the ground by the people behind them. If they fall to the ground, they will be trampled to death by their companions.

They also saw the overwhelming cavalry rushing over. The people in front wanted to slow down, but the people behind were pushing, and chaos had already happened at this time.

Without any intermediate obstacles, the cavalry of the Shun Army collided with the Ming Army's infantry, and some of the Ming Army's infantry in the front were directly knocked out.

What's even worse was that he was hit and fell to the ground. Before he had time to get up, he was trampled to death by the cavalry behind him. This collision and scream lasted for a while until the Ming soldiers rushing over finally reacted. He could no longer rush over in front. In front were thousands of troops of Shun Army, and to survive, he could only retreat.

The Ming soldiers who were rushing forward and retreating collided with each other, and the whole scene was chaotic, and the cavalry of the Shun Army kept rushing to the Ming army's array.

The cavalry of the Ming army was all by the main general behind, and the combat-capable troops of the Ming army were also in the back team. The infantry in front had no resistance to the attack of the Shun army and could only retreat.

The battlefield was filled with soldiers, and the people from the Ming army did not even know that something had happened before. When they did not react, the momentum of the entire army changed from forward to backward.

Many Ming soldiers on the edge of the trench were squeezed out of the trench before they could react. The area filled with 500 steps was filled, and the Ming army was crowded there and could no longer move. However, the trenches on both sides were constantly pushed down, and some even jumped down on their own initiative.
