Chapter 662: Blinding Sunshine
"Ahh The sun was so dazzling that I couldn't see anything. ”
"Oh no, I can only ride with my head down, and I can't see what the situation is in front of me."
The cavalry below had just accelerated on horseback, and all kinds of problems came back.
As the main general, Sun Hong's bad feeling in his heart is getting stronger and stronger, and he knows that the time has come to make a decision. If you hesitate for a moment, you may suffer irreparable losses.
"Withdraw, the whole army retreats, converges with the infantry." Knowing that he was rushing forward, he was afraid that he would not be able to exert even one-fifth of his combat strength, so this battle was still a fart, and at the moment he was the first to turn the horse's head around while giving the order.
Zhu Dahai on the other side made the same decision as Sun Hong, he also led the army to advance towards the sun, he also felt the dazzling sun, and he also knew that his combat power could not be exerted in the battle, so he immediately gave the order to retreat.
In this way, before the outflanking was completed, before the battle was fought, even if an arrow was shot, the main cavalry of the four thousand Beiming had to retreat back the same way. But at this time, it is actually a little late.
Behind them, more than 3,000 cavalry of the first and second regiments of the third division had broken through the 300 cavalry led by Wang Tong. In front of more than ten times the cavalry, it was another panicked shot, and after just one charge, Wang Tong was hacked to death by Wu Sheng, who was holding a steel saber. As soon as the commander died, the other cavalrymen were demoralized, and symbolically resisted, and after throwing down more than a hundred corpses, they turned back and rushed towards the infantry center.
Behind these more than 100 Beiming cavalry, followed by more than 3,000 cavalry of the Five-Star Army, they were chasing after them with horses, shouting loudly, and the bows and arrows in their hands also saw the opportunity to send out an arrow from time to time.
After throwing down nearly half of the corpses, the more than 100 Beiming cavalry who had no morale at all and did not even have the strength to fight back, finally ran back to the Chinese army camp with less than eighty cavalry, and before they could gain a foothold, Wu Sheng and Chen Bo had already killed behind them with a regiment and a second regiment, and whenever the saber was raised and fell, it would often harvest the life of an enemy soldier.
On the front, Chasing Feng had already led a company of cavalry as the vanguard to kill in front of the Beiming infantry. With great horsemanship, they leaped over the stakes on the ground, and then launched a fierce attack on the shieldmen.
Under the chaos of the rear army, a thousand shield soldiers had already been out of order, and the enemy of the front army was attacking fiercely, and soon some Beiming infantry with poor psychological quality broke away from the formation. At this time, what faces them is the fall of the sharp saber, which is the result of the take-off of the head between the knife in hand.
As the chasing wind came first, behind him, the commander of the first battalion, Deng Yu, the commander of the second battalion, Gao Danhua, and the acting commander of the third battalion, Hu Lu, had also followed. The superiority of the forces and the speed of the horses, the already battered infantry shieldmen finally disorganized their lines under the pressure of repeated pressures, and then were divided and killed by the cavalry.
Commander Lu Zhuo, who reinforced the Second Regiment, also arrived. Seeing that the enemy's infantry on the battlefield was already in disarray, and it was only a matter of time before they were defeated, he turned his spearhead and aimed at Zhu Dahai's 2,000 cavalry, who were still retreating on the left side of the team. "Battalion Commander Ma is in the middle lane, Battalion Commander Ding is in the left lane, and Special Battalion Commander is in the right lane, everyone will kill with me!"
Lu Zhuo was named the commander of the cavalry regiment by the head of the auxiliary corps, and he was thinking about performing well, and at this moment, Zhu Dahai's department became a stepping stone for his performance. The three battalion commanders under Jiazhi are also the best in the cavalry, such as Ma Xiongshan, the commander of the first battalion, Ding Shan, the commander of the second battalion, and Temur, the acting commander of the third battalion, are all people who have been dealing with war horses for many years, and he believes in their strength very much. Now that he has the opportunity, of course, he wants to use cavalry to make an impact on cavalry, and he wants to see how powerful his cavalry regiment is.
Cavalry and infantry, and under the superiority of troops, even if they win, there is nothing to brag about. But the cavalry did the cavalry with real swords and guns, and that depends on the real ability. Ma Xiongshan and the others, who were originally proud, were thinking about performing well, and with the order of Commander Lu Zhuo, it could be said that they were in the middle of the situation, and the two thousand cavalry of the next reinforced regiment quickly reversed the direction and killed the Beiming Zhu Dahai who was still retreating.
Zhu Dahai, who was retreating, breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. There is no need to advance against the sun, which allows his cavalry to exert their original strength, and as a general, he has more confidence in his heart. But just before he could completely recover his senses, a large number of cavalry troops flew across from them.
This cavalry team is dressed in a variety of costumes, and from a distance, there are Jurchen costumes, Mongolian costumes, Han costumes, and military green costumes, which can be described as varied. But they all have the same characteristic, that is, each of them is holding a gleaming saber in his hand and each of them is wearing a pair of goggles that look black and inky from a distance, and they are protecting their eyes.
Fighting against the light, it is naturally a loss for the Beiming cavalry, but it doesn't matter if the cavalry reinforced second regiment with sunglasses is prepared, the glare of the sun has been infinitely smaller, put aside, and now what they have to do is charge, and then charge.
In the process of charging, the cavalry drew their bows and released arrows, and while approaching, they shot and killed the Beiming cavalry who were not fully prepared.
Zhu Dahai's department, which was retreating, had already had no formation. Not to mention the chaos, it's not too much off. Maybe give them a certain amount of time to regroup the team, but will Lu Zhuo give them time?
One side is unprepared, and the other side is ready to go.
One side is to retreat in a panic, and the other side is to step forward bravely.
Although the number of cavalry on both sides was the same, both had 2,000 cavalry. But there is still a big difference between being prepared and not being prepared. So that before the cavalry of the two sides had made formal contact, bows and arrows fell like raindrops, and the forward of the Beiming cavalry had no less than 100 arrows falling from their horses.
And this is just the beginning of the competition, when Ma Xiongfeng with a battalion in the first way to impact the Northern Ming cavalry, when the second battalion of Ding Shan and the third battalion of Temur on the left and right sides like two sharp knives inserted into the cavalry camp of the Northern Ming Army, Zhu Dahai's face finally showed a look of fear, at this moment he found that the cavalry under his command was a mess of porridge, there was a state of not knowing where to rush, not knowing what to do.
The first round of collision between the steel saber and the saber of ordinary materials began, followed by the second, third, and fourth rounds.
After four rounds, the panicked and unprepared Beiming cavalry suffered a lot of losses, about one-seventh of the cavalry was beheaded under the horse, but what was even worse was that after the four rounds of fighting, some of the sabers in the hands of the Beiming cavalry actually broke down, and the slightly better ones also appeared a big gap.
If you want to attack it first, you must first sharpen your tools!
was originally unprepared, and was taken by someone and caught off guard. Then the weapons are not as sharp and durable as others, so that although some Beiming cavalry are still sitting on horses, they have nothing to use in their hands, or broken knives, and some are even barehanded, how to fight this battle next?
"Withdraw!"
Shocked by the strength of the five-star army, shocked by the sharpness of the saber in the opponent's hand, Zhu Dahai, who was protected by more than a dozen personal soldiers, saw that his strength was not as good as others, so he turned his horse's head again and galloped towards the rear.
At this time, Zhu Dahai was very proficient in playing Sun Tzu's Art of War, and the last of the thirty-six strategies was the best. If you can't beat it, you can run away, that is the most vivid performance.
At this time, Zhu Dahai was completely dizzy, and he had forgotten that once he turned his body, he would face the dazzling sunlight. It's just that he completely forgot all about it for a while, and there was only one voice in his head, and that was to escape. As long as you escape, you may have a chance of survival.
The situation is not good, and he turned around and ran away without dragging his feet, Zhu Dahai is still very decisive. It's just that his luck is too bad, and after running for miles in the sun, another army suddenly appears in front of him. Because of the light, it was only less than two miles before he spotted the opponents swarming from the opposite side.
The dust that covered the sky and the sun was flying in the air, and it was the cavalry of the third division and the third regiment of Chunyang and the independent regiment Humang who came to the rear army.
There were nearly three thousand people, and according to Yang Chendong's order, they set off a quarter of an hour late. As if fearing that the enemy would be killed, from the beginning of the charge, the two cavalry were running in a race, for fear that they would be one step later than each other.
Originally, in a quarter of an hour, after the encirclement of the two reinforced regiments plus the first and second divisions of the third division, the Northern Ming army had been crushed, and if you were lucky, you might be able to finish it. What I never thought was that before I rushed to the battlefield, I had already seen the enemy, although the number was not very large, only a few hundred horses, but in the eyes of Chunyang and Humang, it was already a piece of fat.
"The independent regiment is rushing with me." Hu Mang laughed, kept urging the war horse to step down, and went straight to Zhu Dahai's department to meet him.
"Commander, what should I do?" Liu Qing, the commander of the first battalion, came to Chunyang's side with a look of urgency, this is all a battle achievement.
"What to do? Of course it's up, there's no distinction between superior and inferior on the battlefield, hehe. Chunyang laughed wildly, and when the words completely fell, he had already rushed out on a war horse. It is true that Hu Mang is his superior, and even the division commander Wu Sheng is also respectful when he sees it, but this is on the battlefield, and there is no humble statement when killing the enemy.
Seeing that the regiment commander rushed out without hesitation, Battalion Commander Liu Qing also laughed and followed, and the soldiers of the three regiments behind him also shouted and rushed forward with their sabers.
