Chapter 421(1/2)
~~~~~~
"Fuck! These dog Tartars are really unstoppable!" Chen Zhong looked at Chen Yan to the north with a gloomy look.
Zhang Pan's expression was extremely serious, "Yuan Qing is a cavalryman with a white flag. From the looks of it, there are no fewer than three Niulu! We must deal with it quickly."
Li Yuanqing's handsome face didn't have much expression, and he nodded lightly.
As the distance between the cavalry in front gradually increased, Li Yuanqing also saw clearly that their flags were those of Du Du with white flags.
When he was in the North, due to the harsh climate and environment, Li Yuanqing actually did not engage in a truly large-scale bayonet fight with the main force of the Hou Jin Dynasty. The two sides seemed to have an unspeakable tacit understanding, and that was all.
However, Du Du, a stupid young man, became the biggest scapegoat.
At this time, his own foothold was not stable, and Du Du's men rushed forward like mad dogs. Li Yuanqing had to admire this guy's courage.
As the saying goes, ‘beat the old master to death with random punches’.
The Changsheng Battalion has fought many times with the Hou Jin Army, and to a large extent, it has already occupied a certain psychological advantage. Even big Belles such as Huang Taiji, Daishan, Amin, and Mang Gurtai, facing the Changsheng Battalion, also have a certain psychological advantage.
I would never dare to be so rash.
But Du Du just dares to be so aggressive and willful.
However, it is undeniable that this guy's battlefield sense is extremely keen. At this moment, the Changsheng Battalion is indeed very weak and has not yet set up its formation.
It's a pity that Du Du is still too conservative. There are only three Niulu and more than a thousand people. What does Li Yuanqing have to fear?
"Come here! Pass my military order and ask Huang Guoshan and Shunzi to go up! Kong Youde will take care of it!"
"yes!"
The order was passed around in a moment.
Beside the earth wall in front, the engineers and soldiers retreated one after another. The 200 sword and shield soldiers of Huang Guoshan's 4000 Corps quickly pushed forward. Shunzi's 300 musket soldiers combined with Huang Guoshan's 200 musket soldiers.
Behind the earth wall.
Unfortunately, time was too tight and the twenty artillery pieces on the ship had not had time to be transported off the ship.
Facing the Jin Army's cavalry offensive, the men and women were inevitably entangled in close quarters.
As the formation came up here, the auxiliary troops on the east side of the fleet gave way one after another, allowing the soldiers to disembark first.
The rhythm of the battlefield instantly became tight.
Zhang Pan fought side by side with Li Yuanqing for the first time since the Battle of Saltworks and Stone Fort.
At that time, Zhang Pan was already considered a veteran, with a high position in thousands of households, and was deeply trusted by Mao Wenlong, while Li Yuanqing was just a newcomer, and was only the deputy general manager, but at this time, everything was different from what it was before.
Seeing how quickly the Changsheng battalion men had completed the defense change, and how carefully arranged the defensive front was, Zhang Pan couldn't help but nod his head.
Take a look at the technological safety treasures.
It is no wonder that Li Yuanqing was able to rise to the top of Liaonan and occupy the position of commander-in-chief in such a short period of time. Just this simple transfer can already give people some clues.
Even the elite of Dongjiang Mao Wenlong's headquarters are completely inferior to the men of Changsheng Camp in this emergency situation.
Zhang Pan finally understood why Li Yuanqing dared to have such courage and go straight into the heart of Zhenjiang City.
However, the Ming army that landed at this time only numbered a thousand men. They had to face the more than a thousand cavalry of the Jin army. Zhang Pan was still a little worried and hurriedly told him: "Yuanqing, the Tatars are powerful, we must not be careless in the slightest."
, must be dealt with carefully.”
Li Yuanqing nodded, "Brother Zhang, I'll leave the follow-up adjustments to you for the time being! Brother Chen and I will go to the front line to supervise the battle!"
Although Zhang Pan wanted to go to the front to watch the battle, he also understood that at this time, someone must be here to take charge. He nodded hurriedly, "Yuan Qing, you go ahead. I'm waiting for your good news here."
Li Yuanqing smiled, said nothing more, and strode forward.
Chen Zhong patted Zhang Pan's shoulder hard, "Old Zhang, don't worry! We're already here, we still have plenty of opportunities."
After saying that, he quickly followed behind Li Yuanqing.
Watching the two people leave, Zhang Pan felt more and more the gap between him and Li Yuanqing, and couldn't help but clenched his fists tightly.
This time, the opportunity has been placed in front of him, and he must seize it firmly.
…………
Li Yuanqing and Chen Zhong quickly arrived in front of the earthen wall.
At this time, the cavalry of the Jin army with white flags in the north had already rushed a mile away. The dust and smoke were billowing. The distance of more than five miles had already made their cavalry rush to the maximum speed.
Although there were only a thousand of them, their white battle robes and dark horses were like black and white rolling waves. Here, you could clearly feel that the earth was shaking.
This is the power of cavalry.
In this era, the real king on land.
"Yuan Qing, these bastards are still as reckless as before!" Chen Zhong sneered and spat hard.
Chen Zhong did not participate in the Battle of Beidi, but in the previous battles of Yangguanbao, Lushun, and Fuzhou, Chen Zhong did not win a single battle. Against the Hou Jin Army, he and his sons had sufficient psychological advantages.
Not to mention, at this time, Li Yuanqing was beside him, and in front of him were all the elite men of the Changsheng Camp.
Li Yuanqing smiled and said, "Brother, being reckless is not necessarily a bad thing. I do admire Du Du's temperament."
Chen Zhong was stunned for a moment, but he soon understood what Li Yuanqing meant and couldn't help laughing, "Since Du Du doesn't have a long memory, we have to let him understand!"
Li Yuanqing smiled coldly, "Everyone is here, ready to fight!"
"yes!"
…………
After a while, the Houjin Cavalry had rushed within 00 steps.
They also discovered that the Ming army's foothold was not stable, and the terrain restrictions here meant that the Ming army had no time to form a formation. As long as they broke through the obstacles of the earth wall, these Ming dogs would instantly turn into pigs and sheep for them to slaughter.
.
"Buyantu, you go to the east and I go to the west. We work together to pull out this nail!"
Among the horses, La Zhangjing Qima, who was guarded by dozens of his trusted servants and was wearing a white flag, shouted to the Mongolian Niulu Zhangjing Buyantu beside him.
"Don't worry, sir, the east side will be left to the slaves!" Buyantu hurriedly patted his chest and shouted like a wild beast. He pulled his horse's head and rushed towards the east side quickly.
The Mongolian slaves behind him also followed suit, making strange noises like wild beasts, and swarmed towards the east.
Chen Zhong's eyesight was very good and he could see the opponent's formation at a glance. He hurriedly said to Li Yuanqing beside him: "Yuanqing, to the east are the Beibei bastards! What a fool, do this again! These Beibei bastards are still alive.
How cheap!”
Li Yuanqing also noticed that the Hou Jin army was divided into two groups, east and west. The east part was obviously not as elite as the west part in terms of clothing color and equipment.
But their equestrian skills were obviously more skillful, and some cavalrymen even stood directly on the horse, which was simply incredible.
At this time, three hundred spearmen from Kong Youde's department also came forward and were waiting behind the earth wall. The Ming army's defenses were complete.
Li Yuanqing smiled slightly, waved his hand and said to Shunzi who was not far away: "Let's start with Beilu."
Shunzi immediately understood what Li Yuanqing meant and laughed loudly: "I obey my orders!"
As he spoke, he whipped out his saber and shouted: "There are all the spearmen in the first row! They are all ready!"
The pikemen around him couldn't wait any longer, so they lit their matches and raised their guns.
One hundred steps.
Eighty steps.
Seventy steps.
When these Beilu handymen had just entered the seventy-step range, Shunzi fiercely waved the command knife in his hand, "Shoot!"
For a moment, the crisp sound of bird gunshots came one after another, the firelight splashed, and the smoke rose.
Many of the Mongolian servants who were rushing in front did not realize what was happening, but their horses somersaulted and rolled directly to the ground.
In such a situation, no matter how good his equestrian skills are, he can only be trampled to pieces by the cavalry behind him.
Many Mongolian cavalrymen were directly shot by cannons, shot off their horses, wailing and screaming, and trampled to death by the horses of their companions behind them.
Nearly two hundred gun soldiers in the first row fired a volley. At least fifty or sixty Mongolian cavalry fell off their horses, and their power was suddenly reduced a lot.
Li Yuanqing couldn't help but nodded.
After returning from the North, after a period of improvement, especially after foreign devils like Joseph joined in, the gun soldiers have made some significant improvements in terms of skills and equipment.
Their movements are more concise, their consciousness is clearer, there is no sloppiness at all, and they already have the feeling of flowing clouds and flowing water.
These Mongolian servants obviously did not expect that the Ming army's volley of firepower would be so fierce, but the war horses had already picked up speed. Even if they wanted to escape, it was impossible for them to escape. They could only follow the flow and go straight.
Forward thrust.
On the other hand, looking at the western front, the six or seven hundred true slaves with white flags stopped at about 00 steps, wondering what they were busy with.
"Bang bang bang!"
Just a few seconds after the first row of bird cannons ended, the crisp chirping of the second row of bird cannons started again.
Seeing that the real slaves with white flags on the west side stopped moving, Shunzi became bolder. There were three hundred gunmen in the second row.
With the sound of three hundred muskets, the poor Mongolians in front of them instantly became targets for Chi Guoguo, and they were killed and injured.
To be continued...
