Come to Daming with military supplies

Page 479



The usually obedient war horse suddenly jumped like crazy, completely disobeying orders, and many unsuspecting Tatar cavalry were thrown off the horse. Even some cavalry with good riding skills were just lying on the horse at the moment. It's just that the body is not thrown off, and it is completely impossible to command the horse.

But at this time, the mercenaries appeared.The distance was still far away, and the bullets of the muskets roared in. One after another, they hit the uncontrollable and defenseless Tatar cavalry. Blood spattered one after another, and each cavalry was shot in the chest, or shot in the chest. Whether they were shot in the body, fell under the horse's legs, or fell directly on the ground, ended their still young lives.

"Enemy attack, counterattack, prepare to counterattack!" The sudden situation in front of him caused Hara Ruochu to short-circuit for a short time, and he seemed to be awakened suddenly in the following time, and began to shout loudly.But it was only two shouts, and the whole person was thrown off the horse by the frenzied war horse.The severe pain made him fall to the ground, unable to make a sound for a long time.

It was not just one or two people who had the same experience as Hara Ruochu, but at least hundreds of them.The other Tatar cavalry were either injured by being thrown from their horses by their horses, or they were still fighting with their horses, or they were killed or injured by long-range muskets of mercenaries. There are less than a thousand Tatar cavalry with a certain combat effectiveness.

But this Qianqi was already terrified. Seeing the sudden change in the army, they pulled out their sabers, but when they saw the number of mercenaries around them, some smart people obediently put down their sabers , Dismounted and surrendered.

Even the chief general didn't make a sound of resistance, and the other party was holding a repeating musket that could easily kill a person hundreds of feet away.The morale is not as good as the people, the number is not as good as the people, and the weapons are not as good as the people. How can we fight this battle?

The most precious thing for a person is life. Surrender is life, resistance is death, death is still so worthless, how to make choices, as long as you are not a fool, of course you should know how to make choices.

Fourteen battalions of independent regiment soldiers rushed over like wolves and tigers.Some were holding eight-one bars, some were furious with longbows, and some were simply holding nooses, approaching step by step in battalion units.

In the eyes of these independent regiment fighters with firm eyes, there is a murderous aura, but whoever wants to continue to resist, they don't mind at all to kill and silence.

It was this kind of momentum that made the Tatar cavalry, who were still thinking about resisting, become extremely honest.After all, no one wants to make fun of their lives, especially with the surging river behind them. With nowhere to go, it seems that surrender is the only way out.

Continuously advancing, in the process of constantly gathering captive soldiers, five thousand Tatar cavalry, under the sudden attack of booby-mines, completely lost their morale. , They became people without a master, and were successfully incorporated by the independent regiment. One by one, they dropped their sabers, jumped off their horses, and were captured without a fight.

Poor Hara Ruochu was tied up when he was still in a coma, and his identity was betrayed by his subordinates, and he became the key "care" object of Humang's head.

"Deputy head Xin, take care of these people and bring them all back to Nu City. This person needs to be taken care of carefully, I'm afraid it may come in handy in the next big battle." Pointing to the still sleeping Hara Ruo came out, Humang laughed, and left the side of the West River with ten officers and soldiers of the independent regiment, heading straight for the north slope.

Chapter 7: Grand's End

north slope.

Having also received a letter from Agadorji, the leading general Ge Lang looked very high-spirited.

As a general who treats crimes and makes meritorious service, he wants to gain military merit more than anyone else.It's just that Beipo has been unable to realize his ambition because of changing hands and being difficult to attack.

Well now, my lord said that the battle at [5200] in Nanlin was pretty smooth. After the first battle, many mercenaries were wiped out. In order to defend there, it is very likely that they will transfer troops from other places to Nanlin. In this way, His grand opportunity presented itself.

The so-called 1 taels of silver for attacking Shicheng first did not irritate Grand. , he has been sending people to watch every move of the mercenaries on the north slope.

But the more anxious I was, the more no news came.Mid-afternoon and night passed, but still did not find any clues.Just when Grand was a little restless and was thinking about sending someone to ask his lord again, the young scout finally got the news that the mercenaries on the north slope had moved. They seemed to be changing defenses. I saw a large number of people moving, but because of the terrain, I couldn't see exactly what happened.

"They must have received an order to divide up the troops to reinforce the Nanlin battlefield." After waiting for the young scout general to report the news, Ge Lang was excited and said somewhat decisively.

"General, since this is the case, should we attack now and attract the enemy here, which is equivalent to giving the lord more opportunities." The young general scout asked misunderstood.

"No need." Grand shook his head immediately.

This is his opportunity to make meritorious service, how could he give it to others like this?So while shaking his head, he said aloud: "My lord has sent an order, let us find a way to rush to the city of Shicheng, this is the greatest support for my lord, understand?"

"Understood, General." The young scout replied as if he understood.

After persuading the young scout general, Grande said with a slightly excited expression: "In this way, you should find a way to get as close to your opponent as possible, keep an eye on their actions, and notify me once you find out that they have completed their troop deployment, and then the whole army prepares, one Launch an onslaught after hours."

Ge Lang still had some brains. He didn't attack right away, just to create opportunities for the opponent to divide his forces. Only in this way, he could take the opportunity to make meritorious deeds and rush to the city of Shicheng.Even his goal is to rush directly into the city. At that time, the mercenaries will have no rear base, and under the attack from two sides, it will be time to smash the mercenaries.

If this could be achieved, Ge Lang would be equivalent to defeating the Ming God of War. In this way, his name would resound throughout the grassland. At that time, who would dare to underestimate him?At that time, even in the face of Mr. Agadorji, his voice could have been much louder.

Grand was very excited, looking forward to the future, but he didn't know that the mercenaries on the north slope were not really dividing their troops, they were just making fake moves.They even dug a large enough horse trap on the top of the slope, and gathered the Humang Independent Regiment who came from Xihe, just waiting for him to attack, give him a head-on blow, and take them down in one fell swoop .

This was originally one of Yang Chendong's strategies.First, they had a battle with the main force of the Tatars on the battlefield that was most suitable for cavalry charge. Born to underestimate the enemy, he thought that in order to defend the Nanlin defense line, he would definitely mobilize troops from the other two places.And once the news reaches Xihe and Beipo, they will plan to send troops, so that he can gather superior forces to counterattack, and then he can achieve the goal of defeating them all.With such a concentration of the main force, it is possible to fight the main force of the Tatar army again and complete the goal of killing them in one battle.

Grand, who didn't know about these situations, was eager to make contributions. When he heard the news that the mercenaries at the top of the slope might divide their troops, he looked for an opportunity to kill them.Just half an hour after getting the news, it is estimated that the mercenaries who rushed to support the Nanlin army should have gone far, and will come back in a while, and the Tatar cavalry attack under the hillside has begun.

It is not urgent to say that it is a slope, but because the slope is long, it is not conducive to the impact of cavalry.But the cavalry can still rush up with hard work, it just takes longer.

This time it was no longer a temptation, and as soon as the charge was launched, two thousand cavalry were sent to lead the charge.Different from the last two charges, the two thousand cavalry rushed to the half slope after only receiving sporadic resistance.Looking at the top of the slope, there are only hundreds of mercenary cavalry issuing bows and arrows.

"Haha, that's true." Seeing that the front army was progressing so smoothly, Grand laughed, and finally gave the order for the entire army to attack. Immediately, ten thousand Tatar cavalry shouted and densely packed from the bottom of the mountain to the top of the slope. rushed.

On the top of the slope, Humang, the leader of the independent regiment, and Zhuifeng, the leader of the cavalry, stared intently at the Tatar cavalry down the slope with binoculars, with unbelievable gleams in their eyes.

"What an idiot, even if it's a charge, the whole army shouldn't charge so quickly." Chasing Feng shook his head, put down the binoculars in his hand, and said with a sigh.

"Hehe, good job, our plan can be implemented more smoothly, and we can go to support Nanlin faster. The young master has been waiting for our good news." Humang also put down the binoculars in his hand , and then reached out to touch his waist, and took out a handful of May Four from there.

The May [-]th pistol is the basic preparation for officers above the middle regiment of mercenaries, and it is also a symbol of status.As Humang, he has been equipped with such advanced weapons for a long time, and taking them out now is just to prepare as a signal to launch a counterattack.

Zhuifeng also pulled out a May [-]th pistol from his waist, and rubbed it carefully until the entire body of the gun was rubbed as if it was about to reflect light, then he opened the safety and aimed the same gun. Po Ding, this time he also thought about having a handjob addiction.

Seeing Zhuifeng's excited look, Humang smiled, and kindly reminded, "Captain Zhuifeng, a pistol is no better than a long gun, and the shooting distance is limited. If it is too far away, it will not be effective."

"I know, I know." He kept nodding his head, but it could be seen that Zhui Feng was still a little nervous this moment.It was as if he was carrying a knife and riding a horse on the battlefield for the first time.

The two regiment leaders just stayed hidden, and the other mercenary soldiers also took their positions and waited.Just like this, I watched the Tatar cavalry rush to the half slope, to the top of the slope, and rushed into their sight.

Deng Yu, the commander of the first battalion in charge of luring the enemy, tried his best to block the advance of the Tatar cavalry.But obviously because of the lack of people, seeing the enemy rushing up, he immediately shouted "panic" and retreated. The hundreds of cavalry under his command turned around and fled. The clean and neat appearance attracted the Tatar cavalry behind them. They burst into laughter.

Under the laughter, Ge Lang led the main cavalry to the top of the slope, and also saw the scene of Deng Yu leading the cavalry back, "Hahaha, okay, now we have successfully reached the top of the slope, and the next step is for us to make contributions It's time. Ladies and gentlemen, let's rush together with this general, whoever reaches Shicheng first will be rewarded with a hundred taels of silver."

Boosting morale, after Grand yelled, the Tatar cavalry beside him shouted excitedly, and then rushed forward frantically. They wanted to follow behind Battalion Commander Deng Yu to see if they could You can't kill the enemy in the process of chasing the enemy, and at the same time, you are approaching the city of Shicheng.

In this way, Deng Yu was running in front, and behind him were ten thousand Tatar cavalry wielding sabers. From time to time, some people would put bows and arrows. Small deterrent effect.

Deng Yu, who was running ahead, glanced back from time to time, and saw that the Tatar cavalry had been tricked and chased after him, a smug smile appeared in the corner of his eyes, and when he looked back, he saw that the roadside was not attractive. Pay attention to the road sign, and said loudly to the cavalry soldiers around him: "We will soon reach the horse pit area, and everyone will walk on both sides according to the plan."

The mercenary cavalry, who had been told in advance where there was a trap, immediately separated to the two sides, left the dangerous area and continued to run forward.

The Tatar cavalry who were less than a mile behind also noticed this scene, but they didn't take it to heart. In their view, the enemy was probably in a panic. That's it.

Maybe it's eagerness to do meritorious service, maybe it's impatience, or maybe it's arrogance that underestimates the enemy.In short, these Tatar cavalry rushed head-on into the horse trap dug by the mercenaries long ago.

Considering that there are too many enemies before, the scale of digging this horse trap is also very large. It is more than [-] meters wide and three miles long. It took a lot of manpower and material resources to strengthen the group. Now , can finally come in handy.

Without the slightest surprise, the Tatar cavalry was recruited.When the first row of cavalry was not alert, the head of the war horse sank, and the horse and man plopped down in the four-meter-deep pit. This was just the beginning, and more Tartars behind them The Tartar cavalry fell into the pit with a plop like a dumpling, and they really went forward without interruption.

One after another, more than half of the vanguard's [-] cavalry fell into the horse trap, which finally attracted the attention and attention of the other cavalry behind them. More and more Tatar cavalry reined in the reins of their horses, stopped in place.

"What's going on?" General Grand also rushed over under the protection of a group of personal soldiers. When he saw the scene in front of him, he couldn't help but gasped. More than 1000 cavalry fell into the pit, and most of them were injured because of the trampling of the horses, and some even died of blood.

Chapter 7 Thirteen

"Bastard, hateful mercenary." Seeing that more than [-]% of his troops were lost, Grand was naturally furious.When he looked up at the backs of the mercenaries who were still retreating along the road, he said angrily, "Chasing, keep chasing, they have nothing left to do, I want to catch them and tear them apart. "

From Grand's point of view, this was clearly the last resort of the mercenaries at their wit's end, and it also proved that the other party had no other post-measures. Otherwise, how could they have made such a big trap?

It was too late, and he didn't care to rescue the cavalry who fell into the pit. After telling them to find a way to save themselves, Grand continued to pursue the road with most of the cavalry, just for the sake of safety. , deliberately sent a cavalry team of [-] people to the front to prevent something like a horse trap from appearing.

Obviously, this worry is unnecessary.A large-scale horse trap requires too much manpower and material resources. Even if a mercenary soldier has an individual shovel in his hand, it is much easier to use it to dig a pit. Just dig.In this way, after chasing for another three miles, they were all very safe, and the hearts of these Tatar cavalrymen began to relax. They began to speed up continuously. Grand, who was walking in the team, was still thinking, At this speed, they should be able to reach Shicheng City around noon.

Disasters always come when there is the most hope, just like the darkness before dawn.
