Chapter 1126: The Jedi Strikes Back (I)
The sun finally jumped out from under the horizon, radiating ten thousand rays of light, dispelling the coldness condensed on every grain of sand, and the breeze carried the warm breath of the sun.
As mentioned before, Xu Jin is the kind of competitive player, which is commonly known as people who come crazy, the more onlookers, the more tense and exciting the atmosphere, the more energetic and energetic he is, so although he hasn't slept all night, he is in good spirits at this time, as if he has been beaten with chicken blood, and the generals under his command seem to have been infected by the coach, one by one, with their heads held high and their fighting spirit high.
After more than an hour of racing against time, several lines of defense had been temporarily set up in front of the 50,000-strong army, 150 Franc machine guns and 300 bowl-mouth guns had been set up in place, and all arms of the army had also formed a formation, just waiting for the main force of 100,000 to take the initiative to collide.
"Report! Fifty miles of enemy tracks! ”
"Report! Thirty miles of enemy tracks! ”
"Report! Twenty miles of enemy tracks! ”
The scouts of the Ming army were like marquees, returning a group every fifteen minutes or so to report to Xu Jin the real-time whereabouts of the 100,000 main forces of the Tartars. When the scouts reported that the enemy was ten miles away, Xu Jin ordered the drums of war to be beaten and the banner to be raised.
Knock knock knock......
In the agitated drums of war, all the flags of the Ming army were raised at the same time, and in an instant, but seeing the flags covering the sky and the sun, the swords and guns of the forest flashed in the morning sun with a terrifying cold light, and the rows of black holes and muzzles silently told - the truth was within their range, and they couldn't wait to teach the 100,000 cavalry of the Answer a lesson.
Since the scouts of the Ming army can find the Tartar army, the scouts of the Tartars can naturally also find the Ming army, in fact, when the two armies are still thirty miles apart, the scouts of the Tartars have already discovered the Ming army and reported it to Me.
After I learned that the Ming army had stopped to prepare for the war, I couldn't help but be a little surprised, but after thinking about it carefully, it was reasonable, in his opinion, Xu Jin must have discovered that his 100,000 army was chasing after him, and he couldn't get rid of it, so he simply stopped and fought to the death, and he would do the same, which was just a helpless choice.
I thought I had figured out Xu Jin's intentions, so I ordered the army to continue to advance, not to mention fighting 50,000 with 100,000, even if it was 50,000 to 50,000, I was not afraid of Xu Jin at all, after all, this was a field battle, and it was the strength of the Tatar cavalry, and the Ming army stopped in a hurry to prepare for war, and it was impossible to build decent fortifications in a short time.
Boom, boom......
100,000 Tatar cavalry passed by, as if they were about to break through the sky, and the sand and dust were filled, shaking the earth and shaking the mountains, shaking people's heartstrings.
On February 27, the sixth year of Jiajing, at about 8 o'clock in the morning, the main force of the 50,000 Ming army of the Northern Expedition led by Xu Jin and the 100,000 Tatar cavalry led by Alta finally met near the middle of the Hunshandak Desert. The two armies confronted each other five miles apart, but when they saw the banner covering the sky and the sun, and the murderous atmosphere was full of night, even the birds passing by were frightened and quickly fled away.
When he saw the strict formation of the Ming army, as well as the rows of artillery, he couldn't help but sudden, the morale of the Ming army at the moment, it didn't look like it was running away in a hurry, strange!
However, when I saw that behind the Ming army camp was a sand dune more than ten meters high, he couldn't help laughing, Xu Jin was indeed a rookie in the field, and he actually knotted the army under the sand dune, which seemed to be able to block the enemy from the rear, but in fact, it cut off his own retreat. Hehe, if Xu Jin, this kid is either panicked and dizzy, or he doesn't know field warfare at all.
When I first saw that the Ming army was in good shape and morale was high, he was still a little muttering, but when he saw that Xu Jin had chosen a Jedi for himself, he immediately put his mind at ease and immediately ordered to prepare for an attack, although the artillery of the Ming army was a bit much, but this could not frighten him!
In the camp of the Ming army, Xu Jin was holding binoculars to observe the Tatar army, when he saw that the other party was preparing to attack, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, the corner of his mouth showed a faint smile, his only worry was that I would besiege but not attack, as long as he attacked, it would be easy to do!
It is the so-called ruined boat, put it to death and come back to life. The reason why Xu Jin chose a "Jedi" to open the battle array, on the one hand, was to consider that the troops were at a disadvantage and use sand dunes to protect the rear of the army, but on the other hand, it was to cut off the retreat to inspire the determination of the soldiers to fight to the death, that is, Xu Jin never thought about retreating, and this battle would either be wiped out, or defeat me and live to die!
This battle is a Jedi counterattack with no way out, and if it is not successful, it will become a benevolent!!
"Rush, kill!" A detachment of Tartar cavalry was the first to attack the Ming camp from the front, but this was clearly a tentative attack, as the Tartar cavalry had only 3,000 horsemen.
As the saying goes: no matter how small the mosquito is, it is also meat, the Ming army does not seem to dislike the other side of the small number of people, a hundred bowl cannons fired at the same time, boom boom, instantly bombarded this Tartar cavalry people on their backs, and the use of flowering shells, although the lethality is not as good as the solid bullet, but the killing area is large, the deterrent effect is better.
Under the intense artillery bombardment, the Tartar cavalry only rushed halfway and turned back, leaving behind the corpses of dozens of men and horses, and some of the undead Tartars and horses were still left there to neigh and scream.
However, he did not change his face, and sent two cavalry teams to feint on the two flanks of the Ming army, but they were also repelled by heavy artillery fire.
At this time, my face finally changed a little, because after testing, I learned that the Ming army was very fierce in both frontal and flank firepower, which means that no matter from which side of the attack, it was difficult for them to bargain.
"Great Khan, although the artillery of the Ming army is sharp, but the range of the strike is very limited, too far and too close can not work, as long as it is close to 100 meters, the artillery of the Ming army will basically lose its effectiveness, and the subordinates are willing to lead 10,000 cavalry to attack!" Arslen shouted for battle.
"Great Khan, his subordinates are willing to lead 10,000 cavalry to attack the left flank of the Ming army!" Not to be outdone, Temur immediately jumped in to ask for battle.
Hearing this, I nodded and said, "Okay, Arslen, Ben Khan ordered you to lead 10,000 cavalry to attack frontally, Temur to lead 10,000 cavalry to attack the left flank, and Herutai to lead 10,000 cavalry to attack the right flank." ”
The three Tartar generals got an order, ordered all the men and horses, and launched an attack on the Ming army in the sound of a dull horn, this time it was a real game, and the Ming army obviously realized this, and the majestic war drums immediately sounded, knock knock......
The 30,000 Tatar cavalry shot at the camp of the Ming army from three directions, and the momentum was so terrifying that it seemed that the camp of the Ming army and the tall sand dunes behind it could be photographed into powder in an instant.
"Cannon !!"
The banner soldier played the flag, and the artillery in the Ming army suddenly roared, and the muzzle of the black hole roared and sprayed out a fiery red iron ball, this time with a solid bullet.
Whoosh ......
But I saw that more than 300 hot iron balls smashed into the cavalry of the Tartars, and in an instant there was a flow of flesh and blood, smashing the horse's head, piercing the horse's belly, and smashing the Tartar's body.
However, the number of Tartars is too much, a full 30,000 horsemen, 300 iron balls smashed down, that is, just to hear the sound of water, the Tartar cavalry still brandished their weapons, like a tide to crash into the camp of the Ming army......
300 meters...... 200 meters...... It's getting closer!
At this moment, even more violent artillery fire broke out in the camp of the Ming army, and one hundred and fifteen Franc machine guns finally opened fire.
The previous round of shelling was fired by the bowl mouth gun, this old-fashioned front-loading gun is very troublesome to operate, and it takes several minutes to reload the ammunition, but the Franc cannon is reloaded, and each gun is equipped with ten sub-guns, and it can be thrown out in a minute or two.
The Tartars who were charging at this moment quickly tasted what it means to be wiped out, and within a minute, fifteen hundred shells fell on their heads!
Boom Boom Boom ......
The terrifying sound of the explosion completely covered the sound of thousands of horses galloping, and also covered the shouts of the Tartars, and the front of the Ming army camp, as well as the two two hundred meters away from the left and right, completely became a sea of fire, and also set off a sandstorm.
I was so shocked that I almost fell down from the horse, my heart seemed to be bleeding, what a vicious guy, he actually hid his firepower before, and when his army attacked in an all-round way, he opened fire with all his might, Xu Jin's son is really insidious and despicable, hateful!
One hundred and fifty Franc machine guns, all ten of them were shot out in one go, and when the dust fell from the sky, I saw that the front of the position was full of mourning, corpses were all over the ground, and at least 20% of the 30,000 Tartars were missing, and the rest were frightened and stopped there.
However, the Tartars stopped, the gunners of the Ming army were not idle, and in this gap, three hundred bowl-mouth guns were also loaded with ammunition one after another, and the artillery commander waved the flag, and another round of overwhelming artillery fire.
"Withdraw!" The Tartar cavalry turned their horses and fled, rushing out of the range of the Ming army's artillery in one breath, and then dared to stop.
"Wan Sheng, Wan Sheng !!"
The Ming army erupted in earth-shaking cheers, and the drummers struggled to beat the war drums, knock knock, and the morale was not ordinarily high!
In the Ming army's formation, Isana and Chilu, who were always ready to escape, were stunned, they looked at the broken corpses all over the place in front of the formation, and they were shocked beyond measure, oh my God, the artillery of the Ming army is too terrifying, who can withstand such a wave? No wonder the surname Xu is so big, only 50,000 people dared to go north to the Khanting.
Isana turned her head to look at Xu Jin not far away, this handsome young scholar looked calm, holding a charcoal pen and writing and drawing on paper, as if the thousands of corpses in front of him had nothing to do with him.
Isana inexplicably felt a chill rush up from her spine to her head!
