Chapter 1059: The Great Shield (Seeking the Top)
Oba looked at the remnants of the defeated soldiers who fled back with a blue face, these people were more or less bloodstained, and some of them were still trembling even if they fled back.
A full 3,000 Mongol warriors were buried under the trenches and barbed wire after only one charge.
At this moment, Oba remembered the resentment and a little pity on the faces of the Jurchen generals when he proposed to break through the Changxing army head-on.
It turned out that the Jurchens had long known the power of the Changxing army's guns, and it was really hateful that they didn't tell him about this prince.
But if he wants Oba to return to Zhenwu Fort like this, he really can't pull off this old face.
The big words have already been said, how can he regret it at this moment?
Besides, he had already made a military order in front of the Khan King Huang Taiji, if he couldn't break through the Changxing army's defense line, who knows if Huang Taiji would elect another person to be the patriarch of Horqin?
For the sake of his own face and status, he also had to break through the Changxing Army.
After standing there and thinking for a while, Oba ordered a large batch of strong shields to be prepared. The Changxing Army's guns are sharp, and he can only find a way to defend.
Maybe the big shield can block the guns of the Changxing army! Oba could only comfort himself in this way, if the big shield still could not stop the cannons, he could only order the Mongols to dismount and fight.
This is his last choice, the combat effectiveness of the war horses left by the Mongols will be greatly discounted, and it would be good to be able to exert half of the original combat effectiveness.
Ma Jingbo withdrew the clairvoyant mirror and nodded with satisfaction, and the Changxing Army in the trench also looked very excited.
In the battle just now, the Changxing army annihilated thousands of Mongols at a very small cost, which can be regarded as a great victory.
The only soldier in the Changxing army who was wounded in the arm by an arrow when the Mongols broke through the barbed wire, such an injury was completely minor in the great battle and had been sent to the rear for treatment.
To be able to achieve such a big victory, there must be a lot of military achievements. The military merit in the Changxing army is the standard for measuring the soldiers, whether it is military merit or other enjoyment, it needs military merit.
While the others were smiling happily, the soldier in charge of operating the artillery had a resentful expression.
They had been fully prepared just now, but the order to open fire had never been given.
Although the Mongols were also repelled just now, if they also opened fire, the Mongols probably wouldn't be able to return any of them.
Although Ma Jingbo seems to be a big person, he has participated in almost all the battles of the Changxing Army in the past few years. In the case of hearing and seeing, he summed up his own set of playing styles, that is, good steel should be used on the blade.
Although there were thousands of Mongols who rushed into battle just now, compared to the tens of thousands of Mongols, those people were just a temptation.
Artillery, a big killing weapon, naturally has to be used at a critical moment, if it comes up, it is a pain that the artillery will beat the Mongols away, so where does their combat exploits come from?
Seeing that the Mongolians on the other side did not leave, a smile appeared on Ma Jingbo's face. As long as the Mongols stayed, it meant that they still wanted to charge, and he would definitely give the Mongols a big surprise.
Oba had already beaten two soldiers in a row who had come to report the news, and the collection of the shield did not go well. Although he only wanted the Mongols charging in the front row to raise their shields against the bullets, they also needed a lot of shields.
It wasn't until close to 10 noon that the big shield that Oba asked for was sent to the front of the battle, and Oba personally checked the big shield sent by the Jurchens.
These shields were built very strongly, and the wooden skeleton was covered with two thick layers of raw cowhide.
Seeing the thick cowhide, Oba had a smile on his face. Such a strong shield was rarely seen in the Korqin Tribe, and a layer of cowhide was enough to withstand the fire of arrows.
The two-layer cowhide shield is probably something that the Jurchens are going to use to deal with the Changxing army, but fortunately, he is smart enough to take the lead in asking for it.
Oba who had obtained the shield immediately ordered another attack, and this time the Mongols directly dispatched 10,000 horses.
And made a promise on the spot that the warriors who took the lead in killing the trenches of the Changxing army would be rewarded with ten cattle, 100 sheep, and 10 Han slaves.
Looking at the barbed wire fence that had been repaired by the Changxing Army, Oba felt a burst of annoyance in his heart. The inconspicuous barbed wire fence made him so miserable, and when he rushed into the trench to catch the leader of the Changxing army, he must be dragged to death by war horses in the ground, otherwise the fire in his heart would be difficult to dissipate!
The horn sounded again, and the Mongols separated 10,000 men from the ranks and slowly rushed towards the trenches of the Changxing army.
This time there were more people, and the Mongols did not start galloping their horses at the beginning, nor did they have all kinds of fancy show-offs just now.
The cavalry of 10,000 people began to slowly accelerate and pressed up towards the trenches of the Changxing army.
The men who rushed to the front of the Mongol cavalry held a large shield in their hands, which could block most of the cavalry on horseback, but also reduced the speed of the horse.
Running wildly with such a large shield must have been under a lot of pressure, and the immediate Mongols needed a lot of strength to maintain their balance.
Ma Jingbo grinned when he saw the shields on that side, the Mongols were so naïve that they thought that they could use the shield to block the bullets of the Changxing army?
As the order to fire was given, the soldiers of the Changxing Army still opened fire at a distance of 100 paces.
A Mongol charged forward on horseback as he grabbed his shield.
This shield was obviously not intended for cavalry, it was a bit too big. If the foot soldier can just block most of the whole body, now it is a bit nondescript to use it on the cavalry.
Just the wind brought by the charge of the war horse made him struggle to maintain not falling off the horse, and in this case, the war horse could not reach the fastest speed at all.
But everyone saw the tragic situation of the 3,000 people who rushed into battle just now, and they had a preliminary understanding of the firearms of the Changxing Army.
Only such a heavy shield could save their lives, and although it was a little awkward, he still approached the trench of the Changxing army with the big shield.
Suddenly, there was smoke in the trench opposite, and the sound of guns kept coming from the front.
"Whoosh!" The sound of breaking the air kept ringing in his ears, and the Mongol unconsciously grabbed the big shield in his hand and retracted his body as much as possible behind the shield.
Just as he was getting ready, a bullet hit the shield in his hand.
The Mongol felt as if his shield had been crushed with a hammer, and his body shook and he almost fell off his horse.
When he finally stabilized his figure, he looked down at the big shield in his hand, and there was an extra bullet hole in the cowhide of the big shield, and a severely deformed buckshot was inlaid on it.
The buckshot had already penetrated the first layer of cowhide, and it was stuck between the two layers of cowhide. Without this large shield, the Mongols would have been hit by lead bullets and fell from their horses.
Just when the Mongols were rejoicing, the war horse under the crotch suddenly slammed into the body and pounced forward.
