"It's the sound of firecrackers!"

"Where's the sound of fire?"

At this time, the two warring sides were like the same longbow that had been drawn and tightened, and the sound of the fire gun entered the battlefield and immediately alarmed both sides.

It is impossible for the two sides not to be nervous, just like two groups of evenly matched sides are opening the film, but suddenly another group of people breaks into the battlefield, whether this group of people can fight or not, their arrival is a help for one of them, and if they don't do it well, they can change the situation on the battlefield.

Dai Shan's small eyes turned twice, and he turned his head to Gushan Belle Entheng beside him: "Send someone to take a look immediately, see what happened, and immediately send someone to report!" ”

"Huh!" Entheng hurriedly sent someone to investigate.

Not to mention Dai Shan's reflection, even Sun Chengzong, who was commanding the army to counterattack on the city gate tower, and a group of generals also looked in the direction of the gunshots.

Zhao Shujiao asked with some doubts: "Lord Governor, there is a sound of fire in the southwest, could it be that the reinforcements of our army have arrived?" ”

"General Zhao really dares to think, where else does the Ming army dare to come over at this time?" A general in his thirties on the side opened his mouth to refute, and everyone saw that it was Zu Dashou's cousin Zu Dale.

Zhao Shujiao wanted to refute, but he didn't know how to speak, after all, Zu Dale said very reasonably, today's Ming army's combat strength is far from being comparable with the beginning of the founding of the country, although it is a bit too much to describe the Ming army with fear of the enemy like a tiger, but the reality is that after the battle of Sarhu, the Ming army has lost the courage to fight face-to-face with the Jurchens.

At this time, Sun Chengzong said lightly: "There is no need to argue, we just need to take another look." ”

The sudden appearance of the situation caused both sides who were about to start the battle to stop, and the Houjin army stopped charging, and the Ming army on the city wall also stopped firing artillery, and a big battle that was about to be fought was so strangely suspended.

"Pimple ......"

The sound of dense horse hooves accompanied by the sound of dust and smoke sounded, and two teams of cavalry began to appear in front of everyone's eyes. Hundreds of cavalry rushing to the front were desperately beating their horses and running towards the main formation of the Houjin army, and behind them was another cavalry of about the same number, they were chasing after them, although due to the distance was relatively far and could not see the identity of the two cavalry, but as the distance approached, many people had seen the big red cloak flying high behind the cavalry who were chasing after them.

"Bang bang...... Bumper ......"

Several more firecracks rang out, and several horsemen who were galloping suddenly fell off their horses, and were immediately trampled under the hooves of the horsemen who were chasing after them.

"Governors, it's our people, they are our Ming soldiers!" A group of Zhao Shujiao, who was observing in mind, suddenly pointed at the cavalry chasing and advancing in the rear and shouted loudly.

The generals on the city tower also saw it at this time, although the two chasing cavalry were wearing armor, but the cavalry in front of the head with a pointed head like a lightning rod hat is the unique symbol of the Houjin Army, which is very easy to recognize, and the chasing cavalry behind each has a big red cloak behind each person, which is also the unique logo of the Ming cavalry, and the enemy and us can see it at a glance when they look at the past.

"Good!"

Zhao Shujiao suddenly shouted, and the Houjin detective post who was running wildly was shot down by the Ming cavalry who was being chased by Houjin, which caused a cheer on the city wall, and the applause of tens of thousands of people was extraordinary, and the entire city wall of Jinzhou City was full of joy and thunder, and the morale of the Ming army was high for a while.

However, there are also people with a dignified look on their faces, outside the city is a place where the Houjin Tartars are heavily armed, and these Ming army sentry posts are bound to anger the Tartars by slaughtering the Tartars' outposts so blatantly, and they will definitely be retaliated by the Tartars' madness next.

They were right, at this time the entire Houjin army was stunned, especially the thousands of horse armor soldiers on both sides of the formation saw that there was a Ming army so blatantly chasing the warriors of Houjin in front of them, they had always been so proud that their lungs were about to explode, and without waiting for the leader of the team to give an order, immediately there was a Niu Lu Ezhen roared and rushed out with the three hundred horse armor soldiers under his command, they waved the weapons in their hands and roared wildly, at this time they had only one thought in their hearts, That is to smash all the daring Ming army outposts to pieces.

"Beep ......"

In the face of hundreds of Houjin cavalry rushing towards them, the Ming cavalry led by the Ming army not only did not have the slightest fear, but led more than a hundred cavalry to answer them after making a whistle!

"Rush up...... Kill these damned Nikans! Seeing that the Ming army on the opposite side not only did not run away, but met Niu Lu Zhangjing, who was led by him, felt that he had been insulted, his face flushed, and he rushed towards these Ming troops first, and behind him, hundreds of Tartars took out their longbows, bent their bows and arrows and pointed at the Ming cavalry in front.

The soldiers of the Houjin are divided into several levels, from the coating, auxiliaries, infantry armor, vest and then to the white armor soldiers, each level of improvement means that the force of the soldier is one level higher, to the level of the horse armor soldiers, it can be said that their force value has stood at the top of the Houjin army, except for the Bayala (white armor soldiers) led by the various banner lords Baylor, the horse armor soldiers are already the most powerful troops in the Houjin army.

"Kill!"

The two charging cavalry were like two high-speed trains head-on, about to collide with each other.

"Shoot the arrows!"

"Whoosh ......"

When the distance between the two sides was more than 70 meters, I saw that dozens of horse armors in the front loosened their fingers, and dozens of arrows shot towards those Ming soldiers.

And the Ming army on the opposite side was not slow to respond, they had already crouched on the horse's back, and raised a round shield to protect themselves and the horse's head, and then only heard a "aggressive" sound, and the heavy arrow shot by the Tartar hit the shield in the hand of the Ming army and made a piercing crashing sound, something surprising happened, the first round of arrow rain shot by the horse armor soldiers was almost all blocked, except for a few two cavalry who were shot in the horse's buttocks, the rest of the people were unharmed, Even if an arrow struck the cavalry's body, it was all slid out of their smooth armor.

And these cavalrymen were not just beaten and did not fight back, only heard the cavalry led by them shouting.

"Fire!"

"Bang ......"

With the sound of fire guns one after another, more than 20 vest soldiers were hit by high-speed flying lead bullets, although these horse armor soldiers were wearing two layers of armor, but in the face of the lead bullet shot from a distance of less than 50 meters on the opposite side was still powerless, the lead bullet first effortlessly penetrated the first layer of cotton armor of the horse armor soldiers, and then passed through the second layer of chain mail After the lead bullet that had been seriously deformed stubbornly drilled into the body of the horse armor soldiers, shattering their fragile internal organs and organs, Many of the horsemen who had been shot fell from their horses like a heavy sack and smashed heavily to the ground, and then the horses that rushed up did not stop at all, and stepped over the bodies of their companions without mercy.

At this distance, the bows and arrows had lost their effectiveness, and the horsemen had used their weapons. As skilled warriors, their weapons are not fixed, some carry heavy knives, some use tiger head guns, and some use iron whips. Seeing that more than 20 of his companions were shot down before the two sides made contact, Niu Lu Zhangjing, who was the leader, was even more red-eyed, and he raised the tiger head gun and roared loudly: "Warriors, these Han dogs' handcuffs have been beaten once, and they no longer have firearms available, kill them quickly!" ”

"Bang ......"

Niu Lu Zhangjing's words just fell, palpitations sounded again, this time the distance between the two sides was less than 30 meters, the area of contact was also larger, in this round of salvo, there were more than 50 horse armor soldiers shot off the horse, and even two horse armor soldiers were hit by the huge impact of the handcuff and flew away from the mount and hit the body of the companion behind after taking off, the two fell off the horse together, just a short distance of less than 50 meters, the Tartar armor soldiers who charged were beaten into a big mess, this scene will also be watched by both sides of the battle stunned.

"This ...... How is this possible? ”

Watching the battle, Sun Chengzong almost tore off his beard, and this scene was far beyond his cognition. Sun Chengzong is not Zhao Kuo who can only talk on paper, this old man, as the emperor of the two dynasties, is one of the few talents in the late Ming Dynasty who can govern the army and calm the people, and he is the most clear about the combat effectiveness of the Ming and Houjin armies at this time. With the combat effectiveness of the Ming army today, if you want to fight a field battle with Houjin, without more than three times the strength of the Ming army, the Ming army has no chance of winning at all, but the scene in front of him almost subverts his worldview.

In fact, not only Sun Chengzong and many officers at the city gate, but even the generals of Dai Shan and Houjin, who were watching the battle behind, also fell to the ground, and many people rubbed their eyes vigorously, and after continuing to widen their eyes, they found that what they had just seen seemed to ...... It seems to be true.

Just when everyone was stunned, the battle ahead continued. After two rounds of continuous shooting, the nightmare of the vest soldier did not stop. I saw that many Ming soldiers stuffed the empty ammunition handcuffs into the saddle, took out another handcuff casually, and opened the hammer with their right hand and pulled the trigger on the horse armor soldiers who were almost close at hand.

"Kill!" The leader Niu Lu Zhangjing saw that his men continued to fall off their horses, and he was already so angry that he waved the tiger head gun in his hand and swung it towards a Ming cavalry who rushed towards him, and at the same time as he swung the tiger head gun towards the Ming army, a black hole appeared in his sight almost at the same time.

"Bang ......"

With a loud bang, this Niu Lu Zhangjing only felt that his eyes were dark, and he didn't know anything. In the eyes of others, Niu Lu Zhangjing's entire head cracked like a bursting watermelon, and his helmet flew high.

By this time, the three hundred vests that were originally full at the time of departure were reduced by nearly half of the troops after several consecutive salvos from a hundred Ming army handcuffs, and all this happened in less than a minute.

"Ah......h

A vest soldier could no longer endure this cruel attrition and collapsed, and he lost ordinary men and horses without even touching the opponent's hair, and he had never touched such a battle. With a heart-rending scream, the crumbling vest turned his horse's head and ran towards the back.

In fact, it is not only this vest, but also the remaining vest soldiers, in fact, since the history of war, the army that has lost more than 50% of the troops and can still maintain high morale and continue to fight is almost rare. Perhaps in a few hundred years, the army of the island nation armed with the spirit of bushido will be able to do it, and the army of Huaxia founded by the great man who has no salary but still has high morale can do it, but this does not include this army that has just transitioned from a slave society to a feudal society.

After losing nearly half of the men and horses in a row and the leader Niu Lu Zhangjing, they finally collapsed, and the remaining more than 100 horse armor soldiers fled backwards one after another.

The Tartars were defeated, and a three-hundred-man Niu Lu was given to the Ming army, which was only half of their number, this scene stunned everyone, and the city of Jinzhou resounded with roaring cheers, while on the other hand, the Jin army's main formation was a deathly silence.

The Tartar bull collapsed, and just when everyone thought that the cavalry would take the opportunity to cover up the past, something shocking happened, and the Ming army officer who was the leader blew the whistle hanging around his neck, and after two long and two short sounds, all the cavalry turned their horses and ran back towards the way they came.

After seeing this scene, he was angry with all the Houjin Tartars, and he wanted to leave after running to Lao Tzu's main formation to kill more than a hundred of our brothers, how could this be possible. Under the shouting of an order from one of the Melezhangjing on the left side of the formation, a Jiala Zhangjing personally led more than a thousand cavalry and rushed towards these cavalry. Since Nurhachi raised his army, the Houjin army has never suffered such a big loss, and they don't have to be human if they really let this Ming army run away.

"Archery!"

When the distance between the two sides was more than 100 meters, the anxious Tartars began to shoot arrows, but the Tartars have always been accustomed to using heavy arrows, and this distance is already a little far for them, so this round of arrow rain has fallen behind these Ming troops.

Just as the Jialazhangjing led the cavalry to continue the pursuit, a burst of high-pitched drums sounded in the southwest direction.

"Knock...... Knock Knock...... Knock knock knock ......"

When this drum sounded in a rhythm of one, two, three, the commanders of both sides did not need to look at it to know the identity of this army, because this drum is a unique rhythm of the Ming army, and it is also called the preparation drum, generally the Ming army will use this rhythm to beat the drum when entering the battlefield, reminding the friendly army at the same time to tell the opponent that Lao Tzu is going to enter the field!

In the high-pitched drums, Sun Chengzong, who was at the gate of the city, clearly saw with a clairvoyant mirror that a Ming army was marching neatly towards the north city gate, and a flag was fluttering in the wind in the front team, and the "Yang" on it was so eye-catching.
