"Hey, that general Nikan Ming who guards the fort is not crazy!"

Zhenglanqi Niu Lu Zhenbaiketu, who was leading the team to return north, was surprised to see that the suspension bridge of Jinjiazhuang Fort Gate a few hundred steps away smashed to the ground with a bang, and a large group of Ming soldiers surged out from the gate of the fort. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Like this Niu Lu Ezhen, the Tartar soldiers beside him all had expressions of surprise and disbelief on their faces.

Now the Ming army has been defeated repeatedly, lost the city and fallen to the ground, and has been beaten like a frightened bird by the Houjin army. But I didn't expect that in this remote military fort, there were still Ming troops who dared to take the initiative to go out of the fort to invite attack?!

This castle guard is simply his dog's guts!

Niu Li's Ezhen Baiketu, since he followed the Zhenglan Banner Lord Dege to enter the customs from Dushikou, like other Houjin generals, has already formed a psychological stereotype of incomparable contempt for the Ming army. Those Ming troops who were frightened by the Houjin and bitter fear, not to mention that they did not have the courage to fight in the field, even if they were defending the state fort, they were also frightened and collapsed at the touch of a button. In a word, if the Houjin army does not take the initiative to attack the state fort, those Ming troops who defend the fort will be afraid that they will burn high incense Thank God.

Although most of the Zhenglan Banner troops led by the banner lord Derge have gone to Datong and Shanxi, and have also drawn nearly half of the troops from his own Niu Lu, with this half of Niu Lu's troops, plus two Mongolian squads, it is enough to walk sideways in this dilapidated Xuanfu Town.

Niu Lu Ezhen Baiketu led this half of Niu Lu's troops, in the Xuanfu East Road and Yanqing Prefecture all the way to plunder, after capturing a large number of Ming people and a large number of people and animal property, he was ready to first escort the captured people and animal property out of the customs, stored in the Tumut Mongol Prince City, and then re-enter the customs to plunder.

In this way, the people of the kingdom of Ming are like lambs to the slaughter, and they do not take them captive, nor kill them, nor rob them of their goods, nor commit adultery. Adulterating their women is simply intolerable!

Baiketu has a typical post-Jin Jurchen face, crooked eyebrows, long, slanted eyes, a long thin face, a downturned mouth, a thin chin, and two small, greasy money rats behind his shaved head. Looking at him as the Ming army on the opposite side surged out of the city, the corners of his mouth twitched, and he didn't know how to describe it.

This blind Nikan Ming general, I really don't know which string is wrong, and the Ming army in other places is afraid of the Houjin army, and this person dares to go out of the fort to attack himself, which is simply mad.

Hmph, since you are a good dog, then Uncle Ben will fulfill you!

"Beat the drums, line up, and kill the Ming Dog!"

"Huh!"

There were drums rumbling on both sides, and Li Xiaojun and the Tartar army were rapidly arrayed. The speed of the formation of these two long-fought divisions is extremely fast, but after a short period of effort, the two sides separated by more than two hundred paces have already set up their formations.

Li Xiao saw from a distance that in the battle formation of Baiketu, there were more than 30 horseless followers at the front, and behind it was the main infantry battle formation composed of 30 horse armor soldiers and 60 famous infantry armor soldiers, behind the infantry battle formation, there were 25 horse armor cavalry scattered in a straight line, and there were also 20 Mongolian armored cavalry drawn from the two squads, and at the end of the battle formation, there were ten white swing tooth soldiers riding majestic Liaodong war horses, they surrounded a relatively tight circle, protecting the two banner-holding pro-army, and two Bakash soldiers guarding the flag. In the middle of this circle is the Niulu Ezhen Baiketu.

The captured people and goods were guarded by two small Mongol soldiers who had not been recruited, and these Mongol Tatars, carrying the people and goods, retreated far away, keeping a safe distance from the Tartars.

In Baiketu's eyes, the battle formation of Li Xiaojun he saw was an unprecedented appearance for him who had been in the battle array for a long time.

Li Xiaojun lined up ten steps in front of the fort gate, and at the front were three rows of shield soldiers, they lined up in a straight line, the big shield that was more than half a person high, smashed to the ground in a slightly inclined attitude, and the two rows of sharp steel hard thorns on the shield shone with a scorching golden cold light under the rising sun.

Behind the three rows of shield soldiers, followed by three teams of spearmen, Bai Ketu noticed that the spears of these spearmen were extremely long, 4 meters long, and the spear head was also different from the common shuttle-shaped spear head of the Ming army. These spearmen stood silently, their spears resting on the big shield in front of them, and the distance of the spear heads was almost the same, and from a distance, this row of straight spear tips shining with cold light had an extremely majestic beauty.

To the left of this spear and shield battle array was a group of forty heavy infantry in a semicircular array, each of whom was in an exaggerated state of expansion, which Baktu knew was the reason for wearing multiple layers of armor. The weapons in the hands of these heavy infantry turned out to be tiger knives, tiger tooth guns, long-handled military sickles, long-handled knives and other heavy weapons used by white-armed soldiers. Baiktu noticed that several of them wore heavy iron helmets with their armor pulled down, and it seemed that these people were probably the most elite sergeants in the heavy infantry group.

On the right side of the spear and shield battle array, there is a 40-person heavy armored cavalry that has been arranged into a wedge-shaped battle array, their horses are all dressed in small full clothes, hanging curtains, chicken necks, swinging chests, back armor and other thick armor, and the knights are also wearing fine iron armor, wearing various colored tasseled helmets, everyone holds a riding spear in their hands, and the momentum of silence and coercion is like a multi-legged beast ready to attack.

At the back of the spear and shield battle array, a group of 50 light horsemen, surrounded by a general wearing the armor of the rear gold swing tooth. Bai Ketu secretly thought that this person should be the main general of the castle. It's just that because of the distance, I can't see the face of this bold general.

Baktu then looked up, and found that on the top of the wall, in addition to the soldiers with swords and guns, there were also musketeers standing in a straight line on the fortress wall, each holding the slender black and shiny musket in their hands, maintaining an aiming position, and the fire rope on their arms had been lit, and it seemed that the dark red fire could be seen disappearing.

Seeing the lineup of the Ming army on the opposite side, Chen Ketu's originally arrogant and disdainful heart suddenly had an inexplicable foreboding.

He heard the breathing of the Tartar soldiers next to him seem to be starting to get heavy.

Where did this Ming army come from, it was so neat and solemn, although it was far away, you could feel the awe-inspiring murderous aura emanating from it. This kind of elite atmosphere is completely different from any Ming army unit that I have seen before.

Can our army really defeat this Ming army, which is five times the number of our army, with a strong array, neat armor, and well-trained?

In his heart, he asked himself softly.

He was immediately ashamed of his humble thoughts.

Since the Jin army entered the customs, it has always been invincible, and it has always been invincible, and it is impossible to take everything, and where the Ming army can see the arrival of our Jin army, it is not a collapse in the hope of the wind. Baiketu, you are still a warrior of the Eight Banners who followed the Lord of the Banner to fight everywhere, and you are still a Jurchen Baturu who is longer than the white mountains and black waters, how can you be in this remote fortress for fear that your own men will be defeated!

Thinking of this, Baiketu's face was a little irritable, and he spat the ground.

Hmph, this Ming general, although he is in such a formation, is very likely to be a silver-like wax spearhead, and he only needs to rush to kill, and the Ming army on the opposite side is likely to collapse.

After all, the two armies fought in battle, courage and morale came first, and these two were the things that the Houjin army was most proud of, and they were also the things that the Ming army lacked the most.

Bai Ketu turned his head and whispered to a Han looking figure behind him.

This Han man is Baiketu's personal adviser, and he is already extremely skilled in translation and persuasion. He listened to Baiketu's words, nodded, and then galloped out of the Tartar battle formation, and restrained the horse's hooves one stone's throw away from Li Xiaojun.

"Listen to the Ming general on the other side! My master, Lord Baiketu, is kind-hearted and does not want to raise a sword in vain. I advise you to lay down your arms quickly and surrender on the spot. My family said that as long as you surrender, you can ensure that you will not die, and whether you will be a coat or join the Han army in the future, you will be at your own convenience. If you don't listen, you will be slaughtered, and there will be no chickens and dogs left in this fort! ”

After the Han people finished speaking loudly, they looked like a fox and a tiger.

Li Xiaojun on the opposite side was silent, as if he hadn't heard him speak at all.

The Han people only said that the Ming army was timid, and his face became more and more arrogant, and he said loudly: "Don't be obsessed, if you provoke my master to start a fire, you will die under my big golden blade, and then don't want to be behind。。。。。。 ”

This word of repentance, the Han people have no chance to say it.

Li Xiao on the other side, when he was making a big speech, he quickly took off the bow from his back, put on a thick carved heavy arrow, and shot at the Han people with a whoosh!

With a slight porphyry sound, the heavy arrow penetrated straight through the throat of the Han people, drilling out a gushing blood flower, and the three-edged steel arrow fiercely penetrated from the back of his neck, leaving only the carved feather at the tail of the arrow shaft outside the front throat.

The huge impact lifted the Han people from the horse to the backwards, and the Han people who flew backwards in the air, at the moment of dying, seemed to be able to see the faint smile on Li Xiao's face not far away.

Grim Reaper's smile.

, this guy shoots so accurately at such a distance.

This is the last thought of the Han people in the world.

He fell to the ground on his back, convulsed a few times, and then never moved again. The horse, which had lost control, let out a loud cry and trotted away.

Zhu Lu Zhen Baiketu gritted his teeth and looked hideous.

Grandma's, dare to kill me, if you don't kill these damn Ming army Nikans today, Lao Tzu swears not to be a man!

"Pass my military order, march with drums, and kill the bright dog!"

"Huh!"

The drums beat loudly, and the Tartar army formation, which had been stationary, maintained its formation and began to move forward slowly.

The horseless followers at the front, armed with bows and arrows, began to trot.

Li Xiao knew their intentions.

In the tactics of the Later Jin, these horseless followers ran to a place about 70 paces away from Li Xiaojun's formation, then lined up, crossed their waists, strode with their waists, held a step bow, and mounted light arrows, and began to shoot at an oblique 45-degree elevation angle.

Among the archers of the average Ming army, being able to shoot from 60 steps is already a good elite. And the physical strength and arm strength of these Tartars, who grew up in the bitter cold region and lived on fishing and hunting since childhood, were indeed much stronger than the Ming army from ordinary military households and civilian households.

Li Xiao slowly raised his right hand.

Hu Ben, the captain of the 60 Lu Mi Men on the city wall, immediately shouted: "All in place, ready!" ”

When more than 30 horseless followers trotted to within one hundred and fifty paces, Li Xiao's right hand slammed down.

"Put!"

"Bang 。。。。。。"

With Hu Ben's loud shout, forty-five of the sixty Lu Mi guns were fired, and the sound of gunshots like bursting beans rang out densely, and the muzzle flames formed a row of flying fire curtains, and thick white smoke immediately surged up in the city.

Forty-five whistling small buckshot weighing three coins let out a slight screech and shot away at the horseless heel who was striding on the opposite side.

There were twenty tiny buckshots of hot heat, like hot knives piercing butter, easily piercing the bodies of the mostly unarmoured horseless henchmen.

The soft lead bullet scurries around the human body, creating a terrible cavity effect, slicing muscles, breaking blood vessels, cracking bones, and even messing up human organs.

The horseless henchmen, who had been hit by buckshot, fell to the ground wailing and rolled on the ground in agony. What awaits them is a certain death.

The more than 10 horseless followers who were lucky not to be hit couldn't help but shudder when they saw their companions in such a tragic situation. Many people subconsciously stop moving forward.

"Don't stop, rush up and shoot!"

Behind the servants, there was a fierce roar from Niu Lu Ezhen Baiketu, which made them tremble again.

The attendants had no choice, and everyone rushed forward with a roar.

At this time, the Lu Mi Guns on the city wall were all reloading expressionlessly.

They finally rushed to the position of seventy paces.

"Change the arrows, change the heavy arrows to break the armor!"

Among the horseless followers, the remaining two Zhuangda roared loudly to remind the more than ten horseless followers. These people came to their senses, and hurriedly drew out heavy arrows, put their bows on their arrows, and began to shoot.

In the Tartar army, heavy arrows are generally used for flat and direct shooting, and projectile shots are generally light arrows to save physical strength and shoot farther.

Now they throw heavy arrows, which will undoubtedly greatly drain their physical energy, and the number of shots will be reduced by at least half. It's just that in the face of the well-armored Li Xiaojun, they have no choice.

A series of ruthless armor-piercing heavy arrows swooped towards Li Xiao's army formation, swishing through the air!

The arrow was a round heavy arrow, and the sound of smashing on the big shield was sharp and piercing, and sparks flew everywhere where the arrow and shield struck, and several powerful heavy arrows shot through the thick layer of iron on the big shield!

The followers fired a volley, most of the arrows were blocked by the big shield, and only three arrows narrowly escaped the big shield and shot into the spearmen behind them, causing the two spearmen to suffer a slight bruise.

When the followers threw the second round, they adjusted the angle.

A total of eight heavy arrows whizzed past the top of the shield and fired into the spearmen behind it.

Four spearmen were shot in an instant, one through the face, and the heavy arrow went through the cheek and straight out of the back of the head, bringing out pink brains. One of the spearmen was shot in the chest, blood splattered, and he was not alive. Two others suffered minor injuries.

It's just that the wounded or dead spearmen did not have any impact on the entire spear and shield battle array. The entire battle formation still stood silently and solemnly, without any fluctuations.

As the followers were preparing for the third round of throwings, the fire on the city wall rang out again.

"Bang bang 。。。。。。"

More than 40 shots of Lu Mi were successfully fired, and the rest of the followers this time were all shot and fell to the ground.

Three of the followers were shot in the legs, and their leg bones were broken, and they rolled on the ground in pain. Li Xiao knew that although these three people were not hit, they would not live long. Because even if it is saved, the lead element in the lead bullet dissolves into the blood, which can make people quickly lead poisoning, and with the medical level of this era, it is definitely a terminal illness that must die.

In just a few minutes, the more than 30 horseless followers of the Tartars were completely lost, and Li Xiaojun on the opposite side only killed two spearmen, and four spearmen were slightly injured.

Baktu's eyes were blood-red, and his chest was heaving violently, and he was almost mad with anger.

What's going on?!

Dajin threw in front of the battle, which was almost invincible all over the world, and lost so cleanly, and the losses of the Ming army on the opposite side were simply insignificant!

The Luminous Men on the opposite wall were like a ruthless killing machine, and they were all reloading and reloading with expressionless faces.

No, you can't go down with these cunning and damned Ming troops like this, and then be beaten by their rows of guns, these elites under their own command, I'm afraid that they won't even have a chance to fight the enemy, and they will be lost.

"Pass my military order, the whole army will rush forward at full speed, and kill all these damn Nikans!" Baiketu hissed loudly, and he brushed the ground and drew his waist knife, swinging his finger forward.

A group of Tartars made a deafening sound in unison, and they all quickened their paces and rushed towards Li Xiaojun.

Seeing the Tartar on the other side, rushing towards him with a life-fighting momentum, a faint sneer flashed across Li Xiao's face.

"Rampant team, Xuanhu cavalry flank cover, gun and shield battle array the whole army rushed forward, crashing into the enemy formation!"

Li Xiao roared and ordered.

"Order!"

The drums rumbled, the flags moved, and all Li Xiao's soldiers let out an earth-shattering roar, they maintained the overall formation, shouted loudly, and rushed towards the oncoming Tartar army!
