Chapter 452: Saving Grace
Aobai's face was bloodless for a moment, knowing that the riflemen were going to shoot themselves. The pen %fun %pavilion www.biquge.info was targeted by more than 400 firearms, where can this still run away? He jerked the axe out of his hand. The axe flew more than ten meters in the air, but it failed to hit the soldiers of the Tiger Division.
At a distance of only ten meters, 400 riflemen opened fire on Ao Bai and 200 Swing Tooth La.
Only a crackling gunshot was heard, and fierce flames erupted from the muzzle of the gun. Four hundred bullets did not hesitate to shoot into two hundred targets ten meters away, breaking through the thick two, or three, layers of heavy armor of these elite tartars. In the face of the rifles of iron and fire, these armors of the era of cold weapons are meaningless.
Two hundred tooth-swinging trumpets were like two hundred prisoners who had been shot, killed by rifles without any suspense. Some were hit in the chest, some in the abdomen, and some in the head, shattering their skulls. The flaming flags, which symbolized the pride of the tooth horn, fell to the ground one after another.
A swinging tooth horn with a heavy sword in his hand "strengthened", was hit by three bullets in his body, shook three times in the sound of gunfire, and exploded three blood flowers on his body. Then he spurted blood from his mouth and fell backwards into the forest, without even letting out a scream.
It took only a few seconds for the 200 elite Tooth Swingers who almost broke through the Tiger Division's defense line to die under the guns of 400 rifles.
In front of the rifle of the Tiger Division, there is no difference between strength and weakness of the enemy, and anyone solves the problem with one shot.
If one shot doesn't solve the problem, then two.
Ao Bai, who rushed to the front and was targeted by many riflemen, was hit by more than a dozen bullets and was beaten into a hornet's nest. The tall Tartar officer's body seemed to explode, and more than a dozen bloody arrows were fired. The gushing blood fell on his well-made white scale armor, staining the entire set of white lacquer scales into a blood-red color, as if the scale armor was originally red.
Ao Bai looked at the wounds on his body in disbelief, then looked up at Li Zhi, who was directing the battle in front of him, and knelt on the ground with a thud. Then he fell forward and lost his life.
Seeing Ao Bai killed, the four hundred fourth-row riflemen shouted in unison, and the sound resounded throughout the mountains and forests.
The Tartars, who were still fighting with the bayonet soldiers of the Tiger Division, heard this cheer, and their faces turned pale one by one, and they quickly lost their fighting spirit.
Ao Bai is a famous warrior in the Qing Dynasty, as the commander-in-chief of these 20,000 people, Ao Bai is the courage of these 20,000 people. The Ming army's firecrackers continued to kill and wound the Qing soldiers in the back row, and now there is no Aobai organization to break out, and this battle will definitely be lost.
As soon as Ao Bai died, the Tartars no longer had the courage to fight the Tiger Warrior.
Zhang Yu, the platoon commander of the selection regiment, saw that the Tartars had lost their courage, and shouted: "Kill the slaves!" ”
The ten soldiers in the first platoon of his platoon heard the platoon commander's shout, and they all rushed forward, so frightened that the Tartars in front of them panicked and fled backwards. The Tartars no longer had the fighting spirit, they only dared to hide back, and they could not even make the action of using their swords and shields to block bayonets.
"Kill slaves!"
After the soldiers in the first row finished stabbing, the bayonet soldiers in the second row stabbed forward en masse. This time, the Tartar, who had just made a dodge move in a panic, was hit. The two Mongol Tatars were so strong that they couldn't dodge the stabbing of the Tiger Warriors and were stabbed. A Tartar was stabbed in the armpit with a bayonet, and his heart was punctured in an instant, and blood splattered several meters high. Another Tartar was stabbed into the lungs with a bayonet, and blood spurted out as the lungs rose and fell, spewing out a cloud of blood mist.
The Tartars in front of this platoon had no fighting spirit, and at this time they were hit hard again and were immediately crushed.
Dozens of Tartars no longer had the fighting spirit, grabbed their weapons and fled behind. They shouted loudly as they fled, and soon drove the other Tartars who were crumbling. It only took a short minute for the entire Tiger Ben Division's front of more than 10,000 Tartars to collapse. The Tartars abandoned the Tiger Ben soldiers they were fighting against, dragged their weapons and fled to the north of the mountains and forests.
The back-row soldiers could not prevent the collapse of this army, and could only flee north with the broken army.
Li Zhi waved his hand and shouted loudly: "Chase!" ”
The 15,000 Tiger Division soldiers abandoned the formation and chased after it with bayonets. When the Tartars saw that the Ming army was chasing after them, they panicked even more and fled straight to the north. The Tiger Ben Division chased for two miles, killed many slow-running Tartars, and chased to the main battlefield where 30,000 Tartars and 35,000 Ming troops were fighting.
More than 10,000 Qing troops fled behind the 30,000-strong army of Zilharang, and only then did they regain their strength and resume the queue.
The view in the mountains and forests is not good, and you can't see the situation in the distance. When Zilharan saw the more than 10,000 Tartars who had been defeated, he knew that the battle had been lost. Zierharang didn't understand how the Qing army was defeated, and my 20,000 Qing soldiers who had won a hundred battles would actually be defeated when they attacked Li Zhihu's division, which could not shoot from a distance, in the mountains and forests?
How long has it been? It's only been two quarters of an hour since Ao Bai went to fight, and this is defeated?
At the beginning, the 30,000 Qing army was chased to Hejiaao by the 35,000 Ming army, and it was Zierharang who showed weakness to lure the enemy. If it really fought, the 30,000 Qing army could easily defeat the 35,000 Ming army. At present, Wang Tingchen and Bai Guangen's 35,000 Ming troops have been beaten by the 30,000 soldiers and horses on their side and cannot find the north, and they can be defeated at a moment's notice, but Li Zhi has killed them.
It was really a failure.
A yellow-studded Jiala Zhangjing rushed to Ji'er Harang, burst into tears, and said, "Prince Zheng, Mel Zhangjing Aobai has died in front of the Ming army!" ”
When Zilharan heard this, he was struck hard, and he secretly said that it was not good. The yellow flag is the emperor's personal command of the soldiers and horses, and this worship is the emperor's great value of the yellow flag tiger minister, and now he folds the worship in this He Jiaao, the emperor will not spare himself.
However, there is no time to be sad at this time, and the most important thing now is to withdraw the more than 40,000 soldiers and horses. Zilharang shouted loudly: "Mingjin guards, the whole army marches north to avoid Li Zhi's soldiers and horses. ”
More than 40,000 Qing troops abandoned Wang Tingchen and Bai Guangen, and fled to the north with the whole army.
Li Zhi led 15,000 men to chase the Qing army and slaughtered them to the center of Hejiaao. In that mountain pass, the Qing army had retreated, and Li Zhi saw Wang Tingchen and Bai Guangen's soldiers and horses, who had been crumbling to the ground by the Qing army.
When Wang Tingchen saw Li Zhi coming, his face regained some blood, and he hurriedly greeted him. Walking up to Li Zhi, he knelt on the ground with a puff, and arched his hand and said: "Xingguo Boyi Bo Yuntian saved our soldiers and horses, which is really a life-saving grace." Xingguobo's kindness, if the royal courtiers have the opportunity to repay it! ”
Bai Guangen saw Wang Tingchen kneeling down towards Li Zhi, and he also knelt on the ground, shouting: "If it weren't for Xingguobo arriving, our department would have been defeated by Ji'er Harang." Bai someone, thank you for the righteousness of Xingguobo's rescue! ”
Li Zhi looked at the two Ming generals who had suffered heavy losses, and said with a smile: "Rescuing friendly troops is the duty of my Ming generals, why do you need such a big gift?" ”
