Big win. (Marshmallow offers Txt free download).
。
Almost on the same day, Dashengguan, like Yangzhou, also ushered in the day of the decisive battle. Like Sun Yuan's side, this battle also began with a large cavalry charge.
It's just that on this side of the battlefield, the attacking side is the Qing army.
Tunqi was the commander of this Jianzhou cavalry unit.
Love Xin Jueluo? Tunqi, the grandson of Shuerhaqi, the Qing Dynasty clan, Prince Zhuang, after receiving the order from Azig, rushed back to his main camp non-stop, shouting: "Drumming! ”
Hearing his roar, the cavalry gathered under the banner as quickly as possible, the wind howled, and the majestic drums and trumpets echoed in the crowd, and then were muffled by the sound of horses' hooves.
"Kill!"
"Take down Zheng Sen's dog's head!"
"Mighty, mighty!" The screams were earth-shattering, and the murderous aura soared into the sky.
Although the other armies of Tongjianzhou rode horses, they did not like to charge the battle with iron horses, and they would dismount and wear armor after arriving at the battlefield, and the troops of Tunqi were standard cavalry. Because of this, there are not too many people, only more than 1,000 people.
It is also because the cavalry is extremely powerful on the battlefield, which is equivalent to the armored army of later generations. Therefore, his troops are generally used by Azig as fist fighters at the most critical juncture. Today, he was the first to be released, which shows the importance that Azig attaches to this battle.
In fact, since the army set out from Beijing, entered Shaanxi, then Henan, and now has reached the Great Victory Pass, spanning half of China, there are not too many times when this iron cavalry army is really used. Even the most critical battle of Tongguan was fought by Duoduo.
Tun Qi has been holding a fire in his heart, especially after quarrying, he has been idle in the barracks all day, and the bones on his body seem to be tossed by the humid heat of the south.
At this moment, sitting on a galloping war horse, blowing a cold wind, breathing in the smell of sweat and horses in the ranks, that kind of pleasure has been lost for a long time.
The sand and dust came to the face, and the iron armor on the body rustled, although the 'tide' was wet in this place south of the Yangtze River, but under the trampling of so many people and horses, the dust was still flying high, and it was dark, Tun Qi lowered his head slightly, otherwise he really couldn't breathe
。 [Marshmallow]
However, he still felt that the ground was very soft, and every time the horse's hooves fell, it seemed to be sucked down, and every time he pulled up, the speed of the charge would drop slightly, making the rhythm of the troops a little 'chaotic'.
It's a bit unpleasant, damn Southern.
"Hurry up, run!" Tun Qi raised his head, brandished the long knife in his hand and shouted loudly. A mouthful, but a mouthful of sand was poured into it, making him want to cough.
It was at this time that he tasted the taste of gunsmoke.
There was a sharp sound of breaking the air, and as far as the eye could see, I saw five or six black shells flying in a white track. At the same time, patches of white smoke had risen from the gun positions in front of the town navy. Because the sound of horses' hooves and human voices was so loud, the sound of the cannon was muffled.
With such a loud cracking sound, Tun Qi saw a cannonball the size of a Black Sea bowl fall into the gap between the war horse and the war horse, smashing into the ground fiercely, 'stirring' up a black 'color' mud 'wave'.
The cannonball was only two paces away from him, and the roar almost made him lose his hearing in an instant.
"It's not a 'flower' bomb, it's okay!" Tun Qi couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, in fact, this round of 'shooting' to attack the navy used long-range artillery, long-range 'flower' shells are expensive, not easy to make, and the Zheng family's new army is not equipped.
Before this breath fell, the cannonball bounced off the ground in an instant, flew sideways, flew by Tunqi's side, and fell into the herd of horses behind, causing a 'commotion', and the neighing of the horses and the screams of the soldiers came.
Tunqi only felt a hot wind passing by, and his eyes were 'confused' by the sand.
"Beizi, Beizi, what's wrong with you?" One of the guards shouted.
"It's okay, I'm fine." Tun Qi wiped his eyes with his left hand, regained his eyesight, turned around and scolded: "What are you talking about, you have shaken the morale of the army, Lao Tzu cut ...... Ah, your hands ......"
However, he saw that the soldier's left hand had been wiped off by the cannonball, and the flesh and blood on his sleeve and arm had been wiped off by the shell, and Bai Sensen's arm bone was 'exposed', like a bare branch in winter. But he didn't notice it, and he still stretched out his bone stubble to try to grab the reins of Tunqi and help him stabilize the war horse
。
Hearing Tunqi's exclamation, the guard realized that his left arm was wrong, and immediately let out an earth-shattering scream: "My hand, my hand!" ”
At this time, the intense pain came like a 'tidal' wave.
Fortunately, his pain was over, and another solid bullet bounced off the ground, sliced off a horse's 'leg', and smashed it his chest.
There was a click, the sound of broken bones sounded, and the guard went limp, and slipped down completely, being trampled on the ground by the hooves of the horses that followed.
From beginning to end, all the horses were galloping fast, and Tunqi turned his head and clearly watched his guards being trampled by one horse's hooves one after another, and their bodies were twisted and deformed on the ground like a cotton coat.
What a terrible death, I guess all the bones in his body have been shattered, right? Suddenly, a chill rose in Tunqi's heart.
As the enemy's solid shells continued to fall, and the formation of the cavalry troops was so dense that almost every shell that fell could sweep down a group of soldiers. For a while, there were screams everywhere that the broken legs of the war horses fell to the ground, and the soldiers were trampled to death by their follow-up companions.
With only one face, at least a dozen or so cavalrymen closed their eyes forever.
Tun Qi was so angry that his eyes were about to burst into flames, and his cavalry was the strongest horseman in the department. In the past few decades, Jianzhou has encompassed the entire Liaodong, and the departments of the Eight Banners have gradually moved from the mountains and forests to the great plains and cities, changing from fishing and hunting to farming. Although the era of the old Khan king's army was unabated,But fighting on horseback is a big regression.,To put it mildly,It's the irreversible process of sinicization.。 And those excellent knights in the Eight Banners, one less dead, there is nowhere to replenish.
When had his troops suffered such heavy casualties?
"Speed up, lean up, lean up!"
In front of him, the enemy's artillery was a little 'chaotic', and when they saw Tunqi rushing towards them, the Ming army with a few artillery positions let out a shout and dragged the artillery to the rear quickly.
Tunqi's 'spirit' was greatly invigorated, and he sneered: Ming Gou is really Ming Dog, and he can only shoot one shot, and there is no difference between him and the soldiers of the Ming Army Firearms Battalion in the past. Just lean in and you'll be able to beat them up!
Wrong......
No, there are still a few 'guns', which are smaller than the ones that were dragged back
。
Moreover, there was a clear difference between the sound of the cannon and the previous one.
I couldn't help but look up, and in an instant I caught the image of the enemy's cannonballs 'fired'.
The shells were not regular circles like the previous long-range cannons, but ...... It's just that I can't say what it is. It's really comparable, it's about a net pocket!
Yes, a net bag about the size of a handful, containing many large and small irregular objects, was 'shot' out of the barrel of the cannon by the enemy with 'shots' and 'medicines', and it was still deformed in the air, so that it was impossible to grasp.
It was just a matter of a moment when the cannon was discharged, and in the blink of an eye, the net pocket broke, and the objects inside were scattered and whistling.
Shotgun, Tunqi's pupils contracted.
Before he could make a dodge move, in fact, under this kind of high-speed 'shooting' attack, no matter how high your martial arts riding skills were, it was impossible to have any reaction.
In the blink of an eye, there was a loud sound of armor cracking, projectiles tearing human muscles and bones, and the mournful screams of war horses......
A row of horses fell, and even the owner of the horse fell, bending and rolling in inertia.
In addition to dust, there was a strong smell of blood in the air.
Tun Qi couldn't look back to see what had become of the cavalry around him, the enemy's artillery was good, and he didn't know what vicious shells would be used in the next 'wave' attack. At this moment, the most important thing is to pounce and engage the enemy in close combat, and which army in the world is the opponent of the Jianzhou Eight Banners in the real 'hand-to-hand' combat?
The Ming army on the opposite side saw that Tunqi was rushing too fast, and they were all 'showing' fear, and some officers were shouting: "Transfer the gun position, retreat, retreat!" ”
As soon as the words fell, Tun Qi had already rushed in front of him, and with a wave of the long knife in his hand, a head jumped into the air.
A bush of hot blood spurted into the air, falling on Tunqi's head and face, and even poured a mouthful into his mouth, it was really a good taste.
Seeing that the officer died so miserably, the Ming artillerymen were all shocked, and directly threw away the cannon and fled in a hurry towards the rear formation. A series of screams rang out, and some of the slower runners died directly at the hands of the ferocious cavalry
。
Tun Qi was 'shot' twice by the enemy's artillery just now, and he was holding back this fire in his heart. At this moment, I tasted the taste of blood, my heart was happy, and I couldn't help laughing loudly, Minggou's artillery was really no different from the Guan Ning Army back then, that is, it was just one more cannon. The enemy's courage has been lost, and without the main force of Azig to keep up, Lao Tzu's cavalry can scatter Zheng Sen'er's troops.
In the laughter, Tun Qi had already rushed to the front of the town naval array. There were forest-like spears, and in front of the spearmen were a group of swords and shields, half-human shields connected like a low wall.
It was too fast to make any more movements, and the long knife in Tunqi's hand slashed through the two spears with a single swing. At this time, the blood of the artillery officer who was stuck to the blade was thrown out.
At the same time, the warhorse neighed, raised its front hooves, and slammed into the shield wall, almost pressing the entire warhorse's strength.
The loud rumble sounded, and the sword and shield hand holding the shield was directly knocked out and flew out, and the person was in the air, and blood was about to spurt out of his mouth.
I don't know how many times the Jianzhou cavalry has trained this shield-breaking tactic in the past, and the same rumbling sound is endless, and the shield array of the town navy is instantly shattered.
The enemy spearmen behind the shields were all pale and only frantically stabbed their spears forward.
Some cavalrymen were directly stabbed off their horses by those spears that were all long, and some of them were not dead for a while, and threw their weapons forward with a miserable scream.
One of the cavalrymen was thrown from his saddle by his horse and fell directly into the crowd of spearmen. The man was also fierce, and the moment he landed, he swept in his hand, causing a 'commotion' in the spearman's hand. After killing two town naval soldiers in one go, he was finally nailed to the ground by an upside-down spear.
Gunsmoke, dust, and people 'tide' were mixed together, and the eyes were hazy.
In the dark, the Jianzhou cavalry and the town navy began to engage in close combat.
The long and large knife danced with a cloud of black light, and Tun Qi gritted his teeth and rushed forward, his eyes full of jumping spear heads that had been cut off by him, and corpses everywhere he passed.
The front of the town navy began to 'mix' and 'chaos'.
