Chapter 1118: Anger
After the Jin soldiers have moved, the guerrillas in two hundred steps with the bow to swim forward, they are very confident, first of all, the Ming army's fire gun can not hit a hundred steps away, in addition to the Ming army's archers are also very few, the ability to shoot a hundred steps outside is even rarer, they are wearing heavy armor, some are sword players, part of them are holding a bow ready to harass, the fan array of the two wings is behind them, because it is not a curved formation, not to put the flag on a horizontal plane to shoot arrows, so the guerrilla in front of the archery harassment is also very important, and in front of the two fans, There were also quite a few vests and whites who untied their bows and held heavy arrows, ready to be thrown at them later.

"It's just a bow and arrow, it's useless for us!" The bald man began to stride in the formation, and in front of him were all his subordinates brought out by himself, some of them came from the Thirteen Mountains, most of them were recruited from the Liao people around Phi Dao, and most of the officers were selected and transferred from Li Zhuang to Qingcheng.
The officers answered loudly, and the experienced sergeant majors were also loudly encouraging the soldiers.
There are many sergeant majors who are full of foul language, but after being scolded by them like this, the morale of the soldiers is obviously much higher.
The swearing voice is also gossiping, full of traces of dialects everywhere.
Mixing sand has always been a necessary procedure for Hutchison to train recruits, this is the territory of the Liao people, but the number of Liao people in the 12th regiment is also seventy percent, and most of them are deliberately mixed with different Liao people, such as the people of Liaoyang Zhongwei and Jinzhou Wei together, Shenyang Zhongwei and Fuzhou Wei together, a company of Liao people try to use the mixed method.
Amid the roars of various dialects, the chests of all the soldiers tightened.
"you little bit, stick the end of the spear into the ground a little more, you don't have any energy in your hands?"
"Don't raise the shield now, you damn it, look at the stones, and raise it again in nearly one hundred and fifty steps!"
"If you want to feel scared, just look left and right, you are surrounded by your comrades who eat and sleep together, you are scared, turn around and sell yourself and sell them, you don't care if you die, these comrades of yours make you miserable!"
"There is no way to survive when you turn around and run away, even if you are not killed by Jianyu, we will chase and kill you, and run to the edge of the sky just to cut off your head, everyone has thought about it."
"The big scar of the dead bowl, Lao Tzu has been in the army for many years, and he has seen a lot of dead people, so let me tell you, the less courage you have, the faster you will die."
"You all remember Hutchison's bereavement, everyone drew a charge before that, right? Let me tell you, you are dead, and the family is waiting to be happy. ”
Hutchison picks soldiers to try to select Liao people with families, 600,000 Liao people in this area, it is easy to pick out men of appropriate age who have families. This is different from Dongjiang, Dongjiang Town may feel that the Liao people who have a blood feud are more likely to express their blood sincerity, so there are even many generals in the Dongjiang soldiers who are singles who have a deep blood feud with the Houjin, and there are many generals at the level of guerrilla generals who have been singles, and they have not even had a daughter-in-law in Dongjiang for many years, only the deputy general and Mao Wenlong's henchmen and generals are qualified to live in a large mansion area on Phi Island, and have a small family.
Hutchison believes that a soldier with family ties is braver and more likely to be disciplined.
This is undoubtedly true, when a man stands with a spear in front of him a group of beastly enemies, and every swing may hit him in the vital point, and he sees the sharp iron spear stabbing into his abdomen, or the head and arms with a large sword, surrounded by screams and blood, and the strong smell of blood in his nose...... In such a place, a person can maintain considerable courage, not only stand calmly, but also swing and stab, maintain physical strength and concentration, advance when he hears the drum, retreat with gold, and the queue does not disperse, in addition to the need for long-term training and battlefield experience, the responsibility for his family and the expectation of a better life will burst out with greater courage and will, much stronger and stronger than pure hatred, if a man has a wife and children behind him, he will never take a step back!
"It's coming, it's coming!"
The bald man kept roaring, he was really experienced in a hundred battles, this time the war could have been avoided, but the bald man felt that he could fight, so he chose to fight!
Be fearless, don't think too much about it, fight if you can, a strong army is fought, and an army without sacrifice cannot become a strong army.
Moreover, if this battle is fought, the effect is better, and the time to cover the people who come down can be longer, and the safety factor will be higher.
Houjin soldiers' guerrilla line had already passed the stone marked with a hundred paces, and at least twenty people raised their bow at the same time, the clear bow was powerful, and the heavy arrow throwing was always the only magic weapon for the guerrilla to disrupt the enemy's front line, and almost in an instant, the entire battlefield resounded with a strong crashing sound.
At the last moment of the battle, the bald man did not forget to shout to the left flank: "Old Ren, rely on you, you have to resist!" ”
Ren Mu, who was more than 200 steps away, heard it, turned his head and smiled: "Don't worry, my old Ren hasn't peed in the pit!" ”
The bald man shouted loudly again: "Archers, swords and cards, form a small formation to move forward, stop the enemy!" ”
The generals in front had been waiting for a long time, and as soon as they heard the military order, they immediately waved the military flag, and the drums sounded at the same time.
"Tiger!"
More than 400 people stomped on the ground and shouted in unison.
"Drink!"
The Jurchens on the opposite side also roared at about the same time.
One of the two sides uses Qi Jiguang's mandarin duck formation, the other is Li Chengliang's standard style of play, the two strongest commanders from Jiajing to Wanli in the Ming Dynasty, one is a generation of famous anti-Japanese generals, and the other is the only Zhenliao marshal who was knighted for military merits in the Wanli period...... Li Chengliang's infantry tactics also came from the Ming Border Army, but they were not as delicate and changeable as Qi Jiguang, and his excellent cavalry tactics were evolved into infantry combat methods by the Jianzhou Department's blue and better than blue, and the sharpness of the attack was also quite awe-inspiring.
The team of less than 2,000 people on both sides has entered the state of engagement, and less than 200 miles to the east of here is the place where the famous General Liu Zhen and the 20,000 Ming troops of the Battle of Salhu died.
Huang Taiji was the one who experienced the battlefield that day, and his feelings were the most believable. After solving Juniper and the North Route Army that day, the soldiers and horses of Li Rubai were left alone, the main force of the Eight Banners ambushed Liu Zhen to the south, the banner was unfurled, and when the horn sounded, the ambush soldiers came out, Liu Zhen was known as Liu Dadao, wielding dozens of pounds of broadsword to fight on the horse, and the old general with white hair roared and fought, but he still watched his sons and daughters being eaten by superior forces, and the defeated Ming army ran all over the mountains, and the Jurchens on horseback kept stabbing and shooting in the back, Liu Cheng desperately shouted and persuaded these sons to come back and fight, It's a pity that no one listened to him, until the end, Liu Zhen fought to the end with his cronies and generals, and all died on the battlefield.
Huang Taiji respects the brave man like General Liu, but he doesn't take Liu Zhen's command in his eyes, he delayed for a long time along the way, and the troops are scattered and disjointed, the command is out of order, and the troops are not in order, only relying on one or two thousand Neiding and elite to fight, such a Ming army is too much, whether it is Juniper or Liu Zhen, it is the same way of playing, this style of play is okay for the Mongols, and it is not enough for the Houjin soldiers who are also proficient in the method of battle in formation.
In front of him, there is a strong Ming army, a very decent opponent...... Huang Taiji showed a smile on his face, and there was actually some crazy color in his eyes, and later generations only regarded Huang Taiji as an emperor who had no last resort, in fact, he was first a Jurchen warrior, and then Baylor, the Great Khan, and the emperor.
The Ming guerrillas also came out of the formation, they were originally more than ten or twenty steps away from the main formation, and when the Jurchen guerrillas approached the range of a hundred steps, the Ming guerrillas approached from the four corners in the form of squads.
This is a revised version of the Mandarin Duck small array, a team officer, two knife cards, in a triangular shape to protrude, all three of them hold a large shield one person high, guarding the four archers behind them, because they are only shooting in front of the formation, and there are no pikemen and boring hands, if the Jurchens rush over desperately, the triangular knife player is responsible for blocking the dead soldiers in front of the rush, and the archers retreat sharply.
The boots were trodden on the muddy ground at the bare foot of the mountain, and because there was no rain for many days, the ground was very dry, and the rangers stepped on large clouds of smoke and dust.
When they were within a hundred paces of each other, it seemed that they could even hear the sound of the opponent's armor shaking, and they could also see the silver armor light flickering on the opposite side.
Looking at the other side, there should be the same feeling, each of the guerrillas of the merchant army is wearing a helmet, the iron mask is also put down, and there is a ton to protect the neck, a large piece of iron protects the chest and the back of the vital point, this is the armor, and there is a heart guard in the middle of the heart, which adds a layer of protection to the heart vital point.
The abdomen is a cowhide belt, and a large iron mirror is added in the middle, which adds a layer of protection to the soft abdomen.
On the legs is the protection of the armor skirt, the shin guards are added between the calves and the thighs, and then the military boots are underneath, each guerrilla is armed to the teeth, and the armor on the body weighs more than fifty pounds, everyone seems to be a standard iron man, only from the point of view of equipment, the Jurchen guerrillas who attacked on the opposite side are obviously quite surprised, and even many Jurchen guerrillas exclaimed, these guerrillas are the vests drawn out by each Niu Lu, one step away from the white armor, they are also battle-hardened warriors, aged about thirty, they all have double armor, There are a few iron armor, most of them are cotton armor and chain mail, their pace is calm and light, like a group of raccoon cats moving on the battlefield, this is a long-term training and exercise plus actual combat training of footwork, they will never stay at the same point for more than ten seconds, on the battlefield, the moving rangers can ensure their safety as much as possible, the pace is not flexible and the movement is not resolute has long been eliminated.
But these Jurchen rangers really rarely see such a heavily armored Ming army, at least in their eyes, they are the Ming army of the Dongjiang River.
One by one, the iron-like soldiers put up a small cover and attack array, and the Jurchens saw it and felt very angry.
