Chapter 177: Stir-fried Flowers (Part II)

In all fairness, Ma Chengen's wave of offensive just now was indeed quite ingenious, but after all, Fried Flower Taiji was a Mongolian general, and such a trick was indispensable in front of him.

This wave is mainly Ma Chengen took advantage of the mentality of being anxious to win under this situation, first pretending to hedge with him for a while, and then temporarily led the cavalry to draw a curved arc, and used the horse momentum to drive the horse chopping knife to form a "sawtooth".

This tactic is not a temporary creation of Ma Chengen, and it cannot even be regarded as the original of the Ma family, the Mongols had similar tactics as early as two hundred years ago, including the previous Chataiji also used a similar style of play.

However, as the so-called impermanence of soldiers, water is impermanent, and the way of using troops must be consistent with the environment and tasks at that time.

Since it is one of the inherent tactics of the Mongols, after the fried flower Taiji came back to his senses, of course Ma Chengen couldn't do it again, after all, as long as the fried flower department was on guard, this hand was not impossible to crack. For example, before the formation of the Ming army's "left-turn arc", the fried flower Taiji could either draw a left-turn arc (he himself was left) to avoid it, or he could do the opposite, charging to the right - directly cutting off the left-turn arc of the Ming army.

The former response is that everyone runs away and starts over, and the latter response is equivalent to comparing "who can cut off whom", which becomes a fight for troops.

Ma Chengen obviously refused to fight his troops, although he wanted to make meritorious contributions, but he would not forget his mission.

Ma Dong was already ready for the second wave of attacks at this time, and approached again with the men and horses, he was taken aback when he turned around just now and saw Ma Chengen's actions, and thought that this guy was really going to rush into battle, and while he was anxious, he shouted repeatedly, asking his subordinates to immediately regroup and prepare for rescue.

Fortunately, this was a false alarm, and he was now relieved and still came according to the predetermined plan, the purpose of which was to make the fried flower Taiji never be able to integrate the team well and not be able to rest.

The next situation is not particularly worth mentioning, Ma Dong and Ma Chengen each launched four waves of attacks in a row, which is equivalent to the fried flower department to the left for a while, and to the right for a while, including the previous wave, ten times before and after.

The iron beating people can't stand playing like this, after all, Ma Dong and Ma Chengen can play a wave and rest for a while, but the fried flowers are always playing.

Fortunately, after this period of time had passed, the panting Fried Flower Taiji found that his command had almost gathered—anyway, those who hadn't gathered for so long could basically be regarded as dead people.

He didn't dare to hesitate any longer, ordered one of the guards next to him to blow the horn, and led the men and horses to an irregular S-shape, avoiding this wave of attacks from Ma Dong and Ma Chengen, and directly rushed to the mouth of the encirclement in the south.

Ma Dong was covered in sweat at the moment, and there were a lot of blood stains on his armor, but fortunately, it didn't look like he was injured. Although he was also tired, he was in good spirits, and when he saw that the fried flowers finally led his troops south, not only did he not rush to catch up, but instead ordered to retreat some, with his back to the Da Liao River, and released the probe horse to monitor the movement of the fried flowers, and the main force dismounted to repair on the spot.

Ma Chengen also ran over and gave the same order. There were more blood stains on his body than Ma Dong, and the whole person exuded a pungent smell of blood.

Ma Chengen saw that Ma Dong took off his helmet and was blowing the river breeze, so he couldn't help but persuade: "Shenrong, the river wind is biting in late autumn, be careful to remove the armor wind, it's not too late for us to rest after we finish fighting." ”

Ma Dong knew that Ma Chengen's father Ma Fu was the unarmor removal wind after the war, and he could understand his mentality very well, but he still smiled: "I don't take off my armor, it's just that I sweated too much just now, and this helmet is about to be unstable, so take it off and bring it for ventilation." Saying that, he was afraid that Ma Chengen would not believe it, so he looked at the helmet and buckled it back on his head to tie it.

Ma Chengen's sweat and blood were actually worse than Ma Dong's, but he was concerned about the fried flower's head, but now he didn't want to rest, he just asked: "Can Zhang Sanxi's foot soldiers over there withstand it?" When are we going to go back and give the final blow to the fried flowers? ”

Zhang Wanbang is not the commander-in-chief of the southern front, and the temporary commander-in-chief of the southern defense line is Pu Yuanyi, because he brought the most troops among the three commanders there.

However, Zhang Wanbang not only had his 300 soldiers under his command, but also more than 1,000 foot soldiers handed over to him by Gao Shishi, which was the most elite unit on the southern front, so he was arranged in a zone that was most suitable for cavalry to break through - this was not something that Gao Shishi could know from a hundred miles away, but Ma Dong judged it.

Ma Dong thought that the Mongols would definitely not think carefully after several attacks by himself and Ma Chengen, and must have directly attacked the most suitable area for cavalry to break through, intending to break out of the encirclement, so he put Zhang Wanbang there, hoping that Zhang Wanbang could give full play to the strength of the hard resistance to Xinai's onslaught during the Monan War, and block the Mongols to the death.

At this time, Ma Chengen asked like this, and Ma Dong smiled and said: "Don't worry, Zhang Sanxi is now known as an iron wall, let him sharpen his sharpness of fried flowers on the southern line, let's save some effort later...... Listen, isn't this just a cannon shot? ”

It turned out that at this time, there was the sound of cannons roaring from the southern front, and it was obvious that Zhang Wanbang's side had already exchanged hands with fried flowers.

Zhang Wanbang's infantry not only had muskets, but he also had a batch of artillery specially strengthened for him by Gao Shipra, which had no heavy artillery, and were all small-caliber Jinghua-made Yilang machine guns and old Ming tiger squat guns.

The former was originally equipped by Gaojia Buding, and the latter was mobilized from all over southern Liaoning.

The so-called "inventory allocation" is a famous hall made by Gao Pragmatic, because his family has no reason to be equipped with artillery, so he does not directly equip it in peacetime, but he will set up a warehouse in the area where his family is stationed to store a batch of artillery nearby, claiming that it is to sell it to the local army......

This is a very magical authority for the border ministers and generals of the Ming Dynasty, they can buy weapons for their own army, and they only need to send a report to the Ministry of War before or after the fact.

Of course, the Ministry of War usually won't give money, at most it will only reply that it knows, and then make a record of it.

At present, Zhang Wanbang has a total of 77 cannons under his command, of which 24 are Jinghua-made Yilang machine guns, which are the main artillery in this battle.

The cannon sound that Ma Dong and Ma Chengen heard at this time was emitted by these long-range Franc cannons.

On the battlefield on the southern front six or seven miles away, Zhang Wanbang stood on a small hill, expressionlessly watching the cavalry of the Fried Flower Division rolling in, without the slightest hint of nervousness, just coldly paying attention to the landing point of the shells and a "grassless belt" about one zhang wide - that is, a separation zone formed by artificially burning the weeds on it.

When the cavalry of the fried flower department stepped over this isolation belt, Zhang Wanbang shouted coldly: "The firing angle of the Franc machine gun will be reduced by one point, and the cannon will continue to fire; The Tiger Squat Cannon begins to fire a salvo! ”

It seems that the upper, middle and lower chapters are not enough to catch the fried flowers, and one chapter has to be "made up".
