Chapter 781 West Wind Breaks (1)
.In a blink of an eye, the enemy is approaching.
Thirty thousand Mongolian cavalry set up their formations on the field, covering the sky and the sun. Qi Jiguang sighed in his heart, "It's indeed spectacular! It's not comparable to the Japanese pirates who are in the storm! It's a powerful enemy that has never been seen in normal times!
But! He turned around and saw that his soldiers were also ready. Hundreds of side vans, light vans, and heavy vans formed a solid chariot city. The chariot was loaded with Francs, tiger cannons, and generals, with more than 300 doors. Outside the chariot city were neatly lined up, behind them. "There were officers and soldiers holding long weapons such as wolves, long halberds, and big sticks. Not far behind, there were elite cavalry troops. They had only one task, and they would fight hand-to-hand combat with the approaching enemies at any time to prevent them from approaching the chariot city.
My subordinates also replaced the cannons with bird guns. Now it is different. Let’s see if it is your spear and your shield is strong!
The Mongolian army over there also saw the Ming army's formation, which was completely different from what they had seen before, and was confused for a moment, but they firmly believed that the truth of cavalry and storm was as firm as believing in Risheng East. "What are you afraid of, it's a trick of deceiving people! Impact! If you don't believe me, the 30,000 Iron Cavalry, can't do anything to you." Xin Ai gritted his teeth and said, "Come on!" With the order, the 30,000 Iron Cavalry rushed towards the Qi family army!
"Fire!" In this room, Qi Jiguang waved his red flag, and the fire broke out in the sky, and the sound shook the world. The cannons on the chariots spit out flames at the cavalry, and the fiery red shells roared into the enemy formation with hatred for the invaders. The Mongolian cavalry suddenly became a mess, and countless horses were blown down, with broken limbs and broken legs flying around, and blood mixed with soil, causing pain all over the body. If the Mongolian horses were not for the excellent breed and were not in a hurry, they would have been in a mess immediately.
Even so, the Mongolian army's assault was slowed down rapidly. Huang Taiji, who was commanding in the rear, did not care about his heartache and ordered people to blow the horn of changing formations. After hearing the order, the Mongolian cavalry immediately dispersed and rushed towards the Ming army in a fan shape.
Seeing that they were about to rush through the dangerous area, the Mongolian warriors were not relieved, but suddenly the sky collapsed and the earth cracked. Wherever their vanguard went, a fire broke out from the ground, and the horse's belly exploded, the horse's legs broke, and the rider on the horse's back was overturned to the ground. The cavalry behind could not stop the car and trampled his comrades to death.
Xin Ai's head was about to explode at this time! He was really a ghost! He had never seen fire in the field before! Why did he even encounter such a thing?!
There is no such coincidence in the world. This is a secret weapon newly developed by the Ming army, called "Self-invading Steel Wheel Fire," as the name implies, you offend others' steel explosions. This thing is also an easy-to-understand name in the mouths of ordinary officers and soldiers. "It is called "landmines" and when a cavalry meets landmines." It is really spring and bloody and romantic!
Despite the heavy losses, "the bow was not turned back and the arrow was no longer able to retreat." He could only grit his teeth and walk over. The Mongolian cavalry rushing in front of him at least found that the ground was no longer spitting fire, but saw the ground full of caltrops and rows of horses blocking the way. "Oh my god, there are so many tricks in the leaves? How do people fight?!
Before we could sigh, we saw the Ming army officers and soldiers in the distance raising the weapons in their hands together. What kind of thing is this? The Mongolian cavalry vaguely knew that this was the fire regime of the Ming army, but it looked different. In fact, the bird mirror was like the rifle that Shen Mo was familiar with.
The musketeers of the first row fired together, and dense gunfire sounded, and a large number of war horses were shot... The fireman fired at the horses first. But this was not over. Under the unified order of the battalion officers, the musketeers of the first row retreated to the formation and reloaded the ammunition. They had been waiting for the second row behind them and immediately advanced to release the ammunition, then retreated and reloaded the ammunition, and then retreated and reloaded the ammunition, then retreated and reloaded the rockets. At this time, the musketeers of the first row had completed the loading and went forward to fire again. At the same time, the gunmen on the chariot were also shooting continuously, with the sound of the sound of the sound of the sound of the fire, and the firepower was continuous and dense.
Although there was already white smoke on the battlefield, "there was no way to see the other party clearly, thousands of guns and cannons in the Ming army fired at the same time, and the shooting accuracy was no longer important. Under the dense rain of bullets, rows of Mongolian cavalry fell horses like cutting leeks, causing losses far exceeding the Mongols' expectations... Before this, they had not encountered the Ming army's firearms, but every time they gritted their teeth, they could rush over to cut melons and vegetables. But now, "there were horses to stop them in front, and the dense guns and cannons in the back" made them pay a heavy price and could not reach the front of the Ming army.
This is the biggest difference between Qi Jiguang's fight against cavalry, and the biggest difference between before, all of them were firearms and chariots. The chariots must be firearms to defeat thieves, and the chariots must be firearms to resist horses. The two weapons must be used by the two weapons! It is precisely under this idea that Qi Jiguang equipped the chariots of his previous generations with a large number of more advanced firearms. When the enemy attacked, the chariots, rockets, and volcanoes took turns to launch the "Bird, rockets, and volcanoes". If the enemy did not retreat, the firearms on the rocket generals were fired together. These many powerful firearms were launched in turn, "not that cavalry could withstand it. But after all, the Mongolian cavalry was too large." Although the frontal attack failed, they still came from a weak area with weak firepower on both wings of the Ming army, pulled the horses with ropes, and approached the Ming army's chariot formation.
At this time, the officers and soldiers of the chariot camp who were defending the two wings had already emerged from the chariot formation and formed a mandarin duck formation - the rattan player was in front, the wolf soldiers were covering, the spearman, and the birds were fighting with the enemy behind. With the support of dense firepower in the chariot formation behind them, they could barely fight against the Mongolian cavalry's life-threatening attack.
At this time, the three Taiji also saw that heavy losses were inevitable, but they knew that if they could not win several times the enemy, the morale of the army would be completely over! We must not give up. The three of them could no longer care about their own small plans and went to the front line to supervise the formation, looking for the weakest link of the Ming army, and trying to break through this damn car formation.
After all, the Mongolian army was a large crowd. After paying a heavy price, it gradually cleared the horse-resisting formation that blocked the way. It was like a beast and roaring. The second Ming army fought hard. With the smoke of guns and cannons, the "killer team crossed the Bird Mirror Team" to meet the enemy cavalry that was reunited, and set up a series of Yuanyang formations. This elite army with excellent bloodlines of the Qi family army was completely different from other Ming army that were greedy for life and fearlessness and was a mess. They had high martial arts skills, excellent tactics, and strict military disciplines. They were not afraid of death! Even though they faced the rolling iron cavalry, they still faced the enemy without fear!
The formation moved with the order. The first order sounded, all the officers and soldiers shouted loudly and pushed forward. The second sound sounded loudly and pushed forward again. At this time, both sides were so close that they could see the other's nose hair!
The third order sounded, "After shouting loudly, everyone rushed forward to fight with the enemy without limit." He ignored the casualties until they were alive and died.
On the battlefield, there were rumbling cannons, gunshots continued, knife seeds, shadows, flesh and blood flying everywhere, shouting, roaring, and howling mixed together, as if you were in the Shura Arena!
Although they are both Mandarin duck formations, they are much more laborious to deal with Mongolian cavalry than the Japanese pirates in the south. The opponent is condescending and full of impact, which is not something that can be blocked by flesh and blood. However, the Ming army is not afraid of death. The weapons in their hands are all used to restrain cavalry. They stabbed enemy soldiers with long weapons such as spears, wolves, hooks and sickles, and used big sticks to hit the horses in the face. Moreover, because the two sides have different heights, it did not affect the firepower support behind them. If it weren't for the excessive smoke on the battlefield and the accuracy of the shooting, the Mongolians would have been unable to hold on.
The Mongols are like wolves. They are usually cunning and suspicious. They will not easily enter the battle, but once the fight begins, they will be fierce and will never die. Despite the heavy losses and blood flowing, they still send a group of cavalry to attack the Ming army's positions, just like a tide washing the reef. No matter how strong the reef is, it is difficult to resist the erosion of the tide.
The Qi family army suffered considerable casualties, but their strict system of joint seats allowed the soldiers to resist the enemy's cavalry, and even if they were trampled into mud, they would not dare to take a step back.
Qi Jiguang stood in the central army, "seeing signs of unsustainability in each line," and could only dispatch the strategic reserve battalion without hesitation to open several doors. The killer cavalry, who had been anxious, rushed out." Like a spear, pierced the Mongols' forward line, causing their offensive to stumble.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Qi Jiguang quickly ordered the officers and soldiers of the Infantry Battalion to withdraw to the chariot city for rest, and at the same time, they drove out all the ammunition regardless of consumption. With the combination of firepower suppression and cavalry harassment, they finally stabilized their positions.
Looking at the scene in front of him, the three Taiji's faces were extremely different. Although the losses were not counted, based on their visual inspection, we can see that it was a tragic sensation that had never been seen before. Many generals who led the army to charge fell horses in front of them, just like using a knife to snatch their hearts.
"Can't fight anymore!" Bingtu said with bloody eyes: "Ma Fang and the others will arrive soon, we will be surrounded!"
"Fuck!" Bu Yan shouted: "You must kill them all!"
Xin Ai had a gloomy face, looked at the two armies fighting in front of him, and suddenly sighed. He finally realized that he was plotted everywhere and was finally forced into a trap step by step.
He glanced at his brother who was still arguing, and he said in a low voice: "We have been trapped. Prince Ma will arrive in a moment. Everyone will be unable to fly." As he said that, he pulled out his golden sword covered with jewelry and said: "Don't hide it, take out all the assets, and fight to death and kill a bloody way!" He burst out with a wild beast's roar and said: "Raise, Changshengtian will guarantee us!" Then he grabbed the horse's belly and rushed out first.
Bu Yan and Bingtu looked at each other, knowing that the eldest brother was trying his best now, then they realized that it was already a critical moment of life and death. They nodded to each other and led the central army of the personal guards to join the battle group.
Seeing the three Taijis leading the way, the Mongolian army's morale was greatly boosted, and the offensive against the Shenji Camp became more and more fierce. Under the cover of their partners in front, they opened their hard bows and shot the revenge arrows into the Ming army formation.
"Yu!" Qi Jiguang shouted violently, and immediately a drum beater passed the order. The shield player didn't think about it and immediately raised a large shield like a table, covering himself and his robe around him. "Puff puff puff puff puff puff" feather arrows shot on the carriage like raindrops, on the shield, but many of them pierced into the Ming army's body from the gap.
A burst of cheers sounded, and the Mongolian cavalry wanted to take advantage of his madness to kill him and jumped up to resolve the battle.
"Spit!" Qi Jiguang gave another order, and the drum sound changed. The shields were removed in unison, and hundreds of spears stabbed out diagonally, turning the car array into a huge iron hedgehog.
The Ming army that was caught in the arrow did not lose its combat effectiveness as the Mongols imagined, but gritted their teeth and continued to shoot. The soldiers of this elite unit were all wearing tough armor, which could greatly reduce the damage caused by bows and arrows. This made the Haogu cavalry suddenly lose their guard and suffer a lot.
"Run..." Qi Jiguang ordered again to reorganize the army of infantry soldiers "strike out of the formation again, and in one go, driving the approaching enemy soldiers out more than one meter away. The two sides just advance and retreat, and I retreat and you advance, repeatedly in a tug-of-war situation. The Mongolian cavalry had already fought for their lives, but they were still unable to break through the Ming army's chariot formation, but instead suffered heavy losses in the face of its dense firepower, and many people showed despair expressions on their faces.
But what made them even more desperate was still behind. Just when the three Taiji were in a state of turmoil to defeat the enemy, they heard the sound of horror and riots on the outside. They looked at it and it turned out that the pursuers appeared.
"It's still here..." Xin Ai sighed, looked at her brother and said, "Then let's fight." If you don't have it, break through, so take care of yourself..."
The two of them had red eyes, nodded, and they went to gather their staff to prepare for the challenge.
Ma Fang and Tan Lun's pursuers were actually not as rude as they showed. "They deliberately dragged behind so that the Mongols were careless and they could set up their formation calmly. When they divided into three groups and surrounded them from the southeast, north and south, they happened to have Qi Jiguang's troops surrounded the Mongols on all sides, and their pockets were finally tightened. The ambush became an annihilation war!
At this moment, Ma Fang finally released the energy that had been suppressed for a long time. He still led the "leading the Ma family's soldiers to rush the enemy's formation, but this time the Mongolian soldiers could clearly feel that the Ma family's offensive was far beyond the level of the previous battle. Obviously, the other party had deliberately hidden his strength. In addition to being shocked, the survival-seeking ** defeated everything. The Mongolians didn't care about fear, rushed wildly, fighting for trapped beasts!
Sixty thousand people fought in the vast wilderness. A lot of battles from afternoon to dusk. The sky seemed to be stained with blood and black. It turned into a suffocating red and black horse. The resentment of ten years was released in this battle. He was like a lion, leading his own lion group, and repeatedly rushed tirelessly. During the rush, he actually cut three sabers. He hung more than ten places all over his body, but he still fought endlessly. With his inspiration, the soldiers of the Ma family army completely restored their mighty style. Wherever he went, there was no one to compete with!
In that room, Yin Feng was not willing to be outdone. He led the Baoding cavalry to fight with the enemy. With the example of the Ma family army, no soldiers dared to be greedy for life and fear death. He exerted his skill and skills at the top of his level, and fought fiercely with the Mongols without any disadvantage.
Tan Lun calmly mobilized the troops gathered from the royal army. When they saw that there was a tight spot, they sent a team to support him. Seeing that there was a loophole in the encirclement, they ordered a group of people to go over and block it. The Ming army had completely raised morale. At this time, everyone was fighting for the first place and each was brave. Although these officers and soldiers came from different military towns, Tan Lun could still command them to make appropriate tactical actions like an arm.
The moon is in the sky," the sharp tip of the battlefield illuminates the day.
After a night of fierce fighting, the arrogant Mongolian cavalry finally fell in front of the tough spirit of the Ming army. "Hurriedly threw down the bodies on the battlefield, pulled out the horses and dispersed. Ma Fang was already red in her eyes, so she was not willing to give up and led the army to pursue without hesitation; Yin Feng was not willing to fall behind. "Chasing: Qi Jiguang also sent out his few cavalry, and it is better to chase the remaining brave men and chase the enemy without telling Hu horses to cross Yinshan!
The shouts of killing on the battlefield gradually faded away, and only wailing was left. The infantry that could not be pursued began to clean up the battlefield and rescue the casualties. Qi Jiguang then plucked the horse and met with Tan Lun. The two generals looked at each other in the moonlight, and scenes of the past four days appeared before their eyes, sending troops, rushing, luring the enemy, defending, and breaking the enemy's pursuit... It seemed like a long, long time had passed.
After a long time, Tan Luncai said hissing: "Yuan Jing, we won..." "Sir, we won..." Qi Jiguang wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes and smiled: "Report the good news to the Governor! We will live up to our mission..."
Tan Lun's face stagnated, and a heavy worry appeared on his face, "Do you know why Altan didn't come to save his sons?"
"I'm just wondering..." Qi Jiguang said: "In theory, with Altan's shrewdness, he would never let the two parts go too far, and he would definitely seek a convergence," he said with a change of expression and said softly: "It's hard to uh..."
"Not bad..." Tan Lun nodded and said, "Sir, as a bait, he entered Wanquan Right Guard, and then attracted Altan's men and horses..." As he said, he looked northeast and said with a worried look: "A day ago" had been surrounded by the Mongolians, and I don't know what's going on now."
"Absurd, how can you let the daughter of the governor take such a risk..." Qi Jiguang said angrily: "You can agree too..."
"Sir, this is a two-person attitude. In order to win, he is willing to give any other reason..." Tan Lun said firmly: "That is the soldiers with a wide range of sources who can use their lives. How can I let his efforts be disappointed..."
"If the commander-in-chief has three or two..." Qi Jiguang turned over and said with hatred: "No matter how beautiful this battle is, what's the use..." As he said, he shook the whip and said: "Why don't you go back to help quickly..."
