Chapter 74: The Bloody Battle at Shanhaiguan (4)
The addition of the AKM Hyakhosho instantly reversed the stalemate, and the attire of the Qing army leaders was particularly obvious, the generals' helmets were brightly colored, and the feathers on the top of the helmets were also different from ordinary soldiers.
Moreover, it was condescending, so close to the distance, the young people of the Thousand Households of Long Live Mountain were blooming everywhere, only to see the banging sound on the city gate tower, and the Manchu Tartars downstairs were blinded by this ferocious firearm.
They have seen the three-eyed firecracker, and this is what the Ming cavalry used in the battle just now, but this three-eyed firearm can only hit three times to death, and it is all scattered bullets, what is the firearm on the city gate?
Why can't the projectile be shot all the time? The Ming army has a new invention again?
Seeing that half of the head of the leader in front of him was cut off by a single shot, the Tianling Gai was lifted away, and even the Manmeng cavalry, who was not afraid of death, was shocked by the firearms on the city gate.
After a while, the leaders of the Tartars under the city were all named by AKM, and without the generals, the Manmeng Eight Banners Army suddenly began to retreat in a panic.
The most unfortunate is the Manchu Dingguo general Duoduo, who is closest to the city gate building, Liu Hongjian specially greeted the shooter of a small flag to greet him, and this small flag is only responsible for cleaning up the people around Duoduo.
It is obvious that Liu Hong gradually wanted to capture this Manchu general.
Duoduo was supported by a team of shield soldiers, but how could the shield of the Manchu Qing Dynasty withstand the bullets of the AKM, at such a close distance, the bullets of the AKM could easily penetrate the steel plate six or seven millimeters thick, you must know that the iron-making technology of this era is not comparable to modern times.
The bullet went through the shield and hit Dordor on the other, uninjured ankle, and both legs were shot wounded.
With the sharp pain in his legs, Duoduo covered himself with the corpse around him, and lay on the ground waiting to die.
Kong Youde, who was thirty meters away, also bore the brunt, and he also used this routine like a gourd.
So there was such a strange formation under the city gate, two piles of shield soldiers in a circle supporting Duoduo and Kong Youde, Kong Youde and Duoduo were covered by the corpses and shields of the soldiers, and life and death were unknown.
Duoduo and Kong Youde's own soldiers tried to rescue their master, but how could the shooters on the gate tower let them get their wish, whether it was an iron horse on a fast horse or a heavy infantry with a shield.
Come one down the next, come two down the next pair.
In a short time, dozens of corpses lay behind the shield array, and the AKM bullet passed through the arm, the arm was directly pulled down, passed through the chest, and the back was directly pierced by the spinning bullet through a bowl-sized hole.
A quarter of an hour later, the Manchu Tartars collapsed......
Liu Hongjian immediately ordered the guards who stayed in the city to go out of the city to clean up the battlefield, and he took the young man of the Thousand Households of Banzai Mountain down to the city.
Without Liu Hong's gradual explanation, Wang Yuanba, Tang Feng, and Xiang Xiong took their soldiers to chase down the defeated army.
Leaving behind more than 300 teenagers who couldn't ride a horse, Banzai Shan Qianhu had a war horse in his hand, and rushed out of Shanhaiguan with AKM roaring.
The so-called defeat was like a mountain, and even the Manchu and Mongolian iron cavalry, which was called the elite, fled north like dogs frightened by the power of the AKM.
The most unfortunate were the infantry of the Han Eight Banners, charging in front and retreating behind, not to mention, because there were no horses, they were first ploughed by the iron cavalry on their side, and then by the iron cavalry of the border army behind them.
Liu Hongjian ordered the 5,000 infantry of the Xiongbu to stay behind to hunt and kill the infantry of the Han Eight Banners, and he himself followed the large army to rush to the Manchurian and Mongolian iron cavalry, with bursts of gunfire, and from time to time the Manchu and Mongolian cavalry fell off their horses.
"Kill! No mercy! Xiang Xiong stared at the traitor infantry in front of him who had lost his armor and shouted loudly with red eyes.
Then the Ming border army with high morale and tiger and wolf rushed into the flock.
Two quarters of an hour later, the dog-like Tartars fled to the nearest Zhongqian Station to Shanhaiguan.
The former city is the first city outside the Shanhai Pass, it is one of the many fortresses built outside the pass by Yuan Dudu, the city is not big, the east and west are only 500 meters long, and the city wall is not high.
In order to recruit soldiers, the soldiers in the former city have been all recruited by Zilharang, and only a thousand old and weak people are left to defend the city.
Taking advantage of the wide opening of the city gate, Liu Hong gradually took the opportunity to order Wang Yuanba to attack the former city, and the defeated Tartar soldiers were swarmed into the Ming cavalry before they could defend the castle.
A hundred AKMs marched in advance, from the south of the city to the north of the city, and the Manchurian and Mongolian cavalry, who did not have time to stop to take a breath, were driven out of the former city by the Ming cavalry, went out of the north gate of the former city, and continued to flee to Gaotai Fort further north.
It's over, it's all over, Jierharang is galling, this attack is really a complete failure, not only did Shanhaiguan not take it, not to mention the loss of soldiers, but also lost the former place, it is really a chicken steal and a lot of rice, oh no, it's a cart of rice!
Seeing that the pursuers in the rear had finally stopped, Zilharang's face couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, but then his face turned black again.
How do you explain this to Boss Hauge, that guy is a violent temper!
Duoduo, the reckless man, doesn't know whether he is dead or alive, it's all Duoduo's fool, let this king be defeated and carry the black cauldron, Made, no, this pot must be pushed to this reckless man.
Zilharang, who had made up his mind, passed through Gaotai Fort and did not enter, and went straight to Ningyuan City, Gaotai Fort is not safe!
Liu Hong gradually led a group of cavalry to chase out a distance, ordered the whole army to collect troops, and chased for fifty or sixty miles, even if the people were not tired, the horses could not stand it, and further north, there were some lonely troops going deeper.
Ordered the soldiers to collect all the corpses, whether it was on their own side or on the side of the Manchu Tartars, Wang Yuanba was puzzled at first, this is still excusable to collect the corpses of his own side, what are you doing with the Tartars?
Liu Hongjian didn't explain, but said that it was useful.
Qiansuo City left 3,000 cavalry, Jiannu lost his troops this time, saw his new weapons, and estimated that he did not dare to attack rashly recently, Liu Hongjian immediately led a large army to Shanhaiguan.
The battlefield outside Shanhaiguan has almost been cleared, and the corpses in the large pit under the city gate have been dug up again, and the pit has been refilled.
Liu Hong gradually entered the city under the echo of all the soldiers, and all the soldiers were full of excitement on their faces.
For the first time in more than ten years, they won the Manchu Iron Cavalry, which was known as invincible in the world, on a frontal battlefield.
The Tartars, who seemed to them invincible, were trampled under their feet, and this atmosphere of pride burned in the breasts of every border soldier.
Of course, the most important thing is that the war is over, and it is time to receive the money, and all the soldiers in this great war have been killed, even the clumsy soldiers have been killed when they pursue the traitorous infantry army like a lost dog.
There were even four or five Tartar heads hanging under the saddles of some of the most skilled border cavalrymen, which were all white silver!
"Daming Wansheng! The chief soldier wins! I don't know who raised the head, everyone cheered, and after a while, there was a tsunami of shouts in the pass.
Liu Hongjian also smiled.
This army has finally recovered its long-lost spirit, or military spirit!
