Chapter 674: Please enter the urn
Facing the opponent who turned around and ran, Baya Laqi Zhangjing, who led the charge, was stunned and speechless, and said that he would fight to the death?
"These shameless Nikans!" Baya Lama Zhangjing roared, "Running away on the battlefield is the act of a coward, the warriors of the blue flag, follow me!" ”
Hauge didn't care about the other party's actions, since the other party retreated in an organized manner, instead of fleeing in all directions in a panic, then there was no need to be afraid. Anyway, this is a coastal area, the terrain is relatively flat, there are no deep mountains and dense forests to hide, and the opponents are all infantry, no matter how they run, they can't run out of their own Wuzhi Mountain, and it is only a matter of time before they catch up. He rode forward with all his time, led the rest of the men to chase after him slowly, and instructed the left and right: "Pass my order to Dartu, stretch the formation a little more, take it easy, and don't waste your horsepower too early." This group of Ming army birds is very powerful, and the casualties in the frontal impact are too great, so it is not suitable for a hard attack. But they all walk on two legs, and they can't outrun the horses no matter what, so let's be like a hunt, let them run for a while, and tire them out. "Dartu is the Baya Lama Zhangjing who leads the whole banner Bayala, known as the first Baturu of the Zhenglan Banner.
Left and right joked: "Master, this place is not far from the sea, don't drive them all into the sea and drown when the time comes, there are not even a few heads, what can you take back to ask the emperor for credit?" ”
"Hahaha......" Hauge laughed up, the joke was very appetizing to him. In his opinion, the opponent retreated neatly to the sea, which was his own way of death, and it was better to run in all directions after the rout, so that there was still a glimmer of life. It was only a matter of time before they were annihilated.
In the distance, Bor was calm, observing his opponent's movements.
Although he has been sinicized because he has lived in Han society for a long time, after all, he has the blood of the Mongols in his bones, and he knows the characteristics and tactics of the cavalry well. Anyway, he also wanted to lead the other party into the range of the battleship's firepower, and he dozed off and met the pillow deliverer, so he simply calculated and commanded the marines to fight and retreat, divided into four detachments, formed an echelon blockade, and retreated in rotation to attract the other party to take the bait.
"Boom, boom", the gunshots continued.
The rifled guns had a powerful range and caused great trouble to the pursuing Qing cavalry. At a safe distance, the Qing army now has to endure the attack of bullets, even if the hit rate at this distance is very low, it will kill people. Many vests don't say it in their mouths, but they are complaining in their hearts, saying that they use the method of hunting to consume the opponent's physical strength, but which prey can bite people so far away? I really don't have a backache when I stand and talk. With this in mind, the Qing troops on the front spontaneously distanced themselves from their opponents, trying to avoid the range of the firearms, while the Qing troops on both sides silently pressed up, forming a semi-encircled circle from the side, ready to close at any time.
Even at Hauge's signal, the Qing cavalry suppressed the speed, but the speed of the war horse was much higher than walking on two legs, and the distance between the two sides was getting closer and closer, and the Qing troops on both sides were almost at the same level as the marines behind the palace.
Bor suddenly turned his head to look, and the sea in the distance was already in sight, and the sails on the sea were faintly visible, and he was about to take the last step to lure the enemy deeper.
He raised his command knife and shouted: "Listen to my orders: give up shooting, turn back and run forward, and form a formation to meet the enemy on the beach under the cover of the warship artillery!" ”
At the sound of the order, nearly 2,000 Marines slung their rifles behind their backs, turned around and ran.
The Qing army hung for a long time, just waiting for the opponent to give up the opportunity to "flee in a hurry" from the tight infantry array, how could they let it go? Compared to the phalanx of shock muskets + bayonets, pursuing from behind the infantry and easily harvesting lives is their favorite way to fight.
The seasoned vests did not wait for the officer's order, and rode after them. I have to say that these vests, which have been tempered from countless actual battles, are one of the most powerful armies in the era of cold weapons, and their sense of smell on the battlefield and their grasp of fighters are first-class. If you change to another empty battlefield, whether it is an ancient army or a modern army, in such a situation, abandon the tight array and expose your back to the opponent, the only end is defeat.
In the process of running wildly, Bol couldn't stop praying in his heart: Master, now it's all up to you and me to tacit understanding. If you understand what I mean, this trick will be a success, and it will deal a heavy blow to Hauge and his blue flag; If you don't react, then it is very likely that the 2,000 marines will be slaughtered by thousands of Qing troops under the unstable foothold.
How can a war horse running with all its strength be able to compete with manpower? As the Qing army accelerated, the sound of hooves shook the sky, the earth trembled, and the cavalry of the brigade swept towards the desperately running marines like dark clouds, accompanied by the sound of thunderous hooves, and the distance became closer and closer. Six hundred steps, five hundred steps, four hundred steps......
As the two armies chased me closer to the beach, the mountain-like warships on the sea in the distance slowly appeared in everyone's sight. The Qing army vests who were chasing after them inadvertently looked up and saw a "huh", and subconsciously slowed down.
At first, only a few people noticed, but as their pace slowed, the rest felt that something was wrong, and they all looked ahead, and they all saw the fleet in the sea ahead.
The war horse galloping in full force naturally could not stop immediately, although someone saw the warship one after another, but did not know how to deal with it for a while, the war horse that did not receive the master's instructions was still running forward, and the distance between thousands of Qing army pursuers and the marines and fleets was slowly narrowing.
Hauge also saw the big ship in the rear, and he chuckled in his heart, could it be that everything Taktan said was true?
His reaction was very fast, and he immediately ordered: "Go and give the order quickly, don't stop, catch up with this group of Ming infantry, and kill them all." No matter how powerful the ship is, it can't go ashore, so let's run away after the fight. ”
This line of thinking is undoubtedly correct. As long as they catch up with the opponent's infantry and strangle them together, even if there are cannons on the big ship, they will be thrown into the trap. After killing all the people and running away, at the speed of the war horse, the big ship could not hit a few people with its cannons.
At the critical moment, the tacit understanding between Murong Longcheng and Bolhu played a role, after all, they have been masters and servants for more than ten years, and they can see from each other's actions what he wants to do and how he should cooperate.
"Boom, boom", five or six shells fell on the beach, splashing the sky with fine sand, and dousing the pursuing vests on their heads. It was this round of test firing that made all the pursuers involuntarily slow down - after all, shells are more terrible than bullets, and no one wants to carry shells with flesh and blood - taking advantage of the opportunity of the opponent to slow down, the marines ran desperately and opened a certain distance.
