Tong Yangzhen's traitor troops advanced hundreds of steps in fear, but Ningyuan City did not fire a single shot. Although these soldiers were inexplicable, they did not eat the shells, and they were always in a pleasant mood. Seeing that the moat was about a hundred steps ahead, as long as he rushed to the front and threw the sack full of dirt into it, the mission was completed.

But at this moment, the gate of Ningyuan suddenly opened, and more than 100 cavalry rushed out of the city, shouting and killing to the moat.

Tong Yangzhen was also stunned when he saw it, thinking that this Ming army guarding the city has always been a turtle that does not come out, and has been guarding until the city is broken. Why is he so bold today that he took the initiative to kill it?

But as long as it's not a Hongyi cannon, he's really not afraid. Although the vast majority of his men were infantry troops, they must have suffered a great loss to the cavalry of the Ming army. But fortunately, the other party only has more than 100 horsemen, and his own strength is as many as 3,000 people, which is dozens of times that of the other party. As long as the other party can be surrounded, it is a hard pile of soldiers' corpses, and the Ming army can be trapped in the battle.

Thinking of this, Tong Yangzhen yelled excitedly: "Rush me!" Behead one level, reward 100 taels of silver! ”

In fact, how can he have the qualifications to reward soldiers, it is nothing more than fooling.

When Tong Jun saw that the other party's cavalry was killed, he actually felt relieved, and he felt that at least the defenders would not open fire. Since they became traitors, they have been terribly afraid of Allah, but they are not afraid of the weak Ming army. Seeing the defenders attacking, he didn't think much about it, so he roared and rushed to the moat.

But they are infantry after all, how can the speed be compared with the cavalry? In an instant, the cavalry of the Ming army had been killed to the side of the moat, and they all restrained their horses and supported their bows.

The rider at the head is none other than Li Chongyao, the eldest lady of the Li family. She herself drew the bow into the shape of a full moon and shouted, "Release!" ”

With her order, more than 100 sharp arrows shot out, making a terrifying sound of breaking the sky, and rushed straight towards the Houjin army a hundred steps away!

And these traitor troops thought that the Ming army was still about 100 paces away, and it was impossible to shoot themselves, so they still charged forward indifferently.

But this arrow net made of sharp arrows just crossed a distance of more than a hundred steps, covering the enemy in it!

The screams suddenly rang out, and the dozen or so traitors who rushed to the front were actually pierced through their bodies from top to bottom by sharp arrows and firmly nailed to the ground!

Tong Yangzhen was shocked, thinking that an archer with average strength could only shoot forty or fifty steps. And a good archer like the Jurchen cavalry would have a hard time shooting an arrow eighty paces away. Only a sharpshooter who is one in a hundred miles can shoot a hundred paces away. There is no such marksman in his own traitor army, even in the Jurchen Eight Banners, it would be good if a Niu Lu could produce one.

But in this unit on the other side, everyone can shoot so far! Before Tong Yangzhen surrendered, he had been in the border army for many years, but he had never heard of such a strong army!

Just as he was thinking, a second wave of arrows struck again. This time the force was even stronger than the last time, not only did he shoot down more than a dozen soldiers, but a few arrows were also fired in his direction. Tong Yangzhen hurriedly dialed with his saber and shot down all these arrows. Even so, he felt his arms tingle, which showed the strength of the bow and arrows.

But the traitor troops have almost rushed to the moat, and they will never dare to retreat. The Jurchen Governor team behind was coldly observing the Tong army on the battlefield. As long as someone dares to retreat, the Overseer will inevitably be killed.

Therefore, although he was shot by the Ming army's ultra-long-distance bow and arrow, Tong Yangzhen still commanded the soldiers and rushed forward desperately against the rain of arrows. I thought that as long as I rushed to the side of the moat and flattened the river mattress, I could rush across the river and surround the Ming army. At that time, the opponent naturally did not have time to release arrows.

In this way, more than 100 of Li Chongyao's Li family disciples kept firing bows and arrows, and with each salvo, they could put down more than ten or twenty traitors. Although there were archers in the Tong army, they could only shoot fifty or sixty steps at most, and they couldn't reach the Ming army at all. When they finally managed to close the distance, the Ming army retreated more than ten steps back, and then continued to shoot.

Since Tong Yangzhen surrendered, Jin has never fought this kind of wimply battle that he can't be beaten, and he is so angry that he jumps like thunder, and roars desperately: "Rush, rush, rush for me!" Rush over the moat and kill them all! ”

Fortunately, after all, he was outnumbered, and although more than 200 people were shot dead in a short time, he finally rushed to the moat. That's when their sacks finally came in handy. The traitors hurriedly threw the sack into the river and were immediately relieved.

In a short time, a passage of sandbags appeared in the moat, about a foot wide enough for two or three horses to pass side by side.

Tong Yangzhen saw that the Ming army just continued to release arrows, and did not rush to the front to stop it, and said with great joy: "Kill me!" ”

These traitors had been beaten by arrows for a long time, and at this time they were also full of anger, and they rushed onto the sandbag bridge with a shout, and rushed across the opposite bank in a chaotic manner.

Li Chongyao smiled contemptuously, and suddenly shouted: "Rush!" ”

More than 100 children of the Li family immediately put away their bows and arrows, took off the spears and broadswords on the bird's wing rings, and killed the Tong army who had just crossed the moat like arrows from the string!

Tong Yangzhen's subordinates were unlucky this time. They have eaten cannonballs, withstood the rain of arrows, and turned around the Ghost Gate Pass several times, and finally survived until now. But under the iron hooves of the Ming army, they were no longer spared.

The cavalry assault on the infantry was like a sharp blade splitting tofu, and it was effortless at all. The Tong army did not have a stable foothold, and was all stabbed and hit by the Ming army and fell into the moat. At this time, although there is no water in the river, the bottom of the river is one or two zhang high from the river, and the bottom is frozen with ** ice. If a person falls, how can there be a good one? In an instant, these traitors who rushed across the moat fell and smashed, their bones were broken, and their screams became loud!

Tong Yangzhen didn't care about these lives at all, and continued to command the soldiers to rush up. And the archers in the Tong army also began to shoot arrows at the Ming army across the moat. But at this time, the distance between the two sides was already very close, and the Ming army and the Tong army on the other side were even more mixed together, forming a melee, and the archers could not distinguish between friend and foe at all.

Tong Yangzhen couldn't care so much, and roared angrily: "Don't care so much, shoot me!" ”

The archers had no choice but to obey Tong Yangzhen's orders and shoot indiscriminately at the opposite bank.

Tong Yangzhen looked at the opposite side triumphantly, thinking that this large rain of arrows had passed, although his own people must have been shot to death, as long as he could kill and injure the Ming army at the same time, it would be worth it.

But after the rain of arrows, Tong Yangzhen was stunned to find that there were indeed a large number of people lying on the ground, but none of them were Ming soldiers, all of them were his own men!

And some of the cavalry of the Ming army have been hit by seven or eight arrows, like hedgehogs, but they are still sitting on their horses, unaware!

At this point, Tong Jun's soldiers were finally afraid. Where is this soldier, it is clearly an invulnerable heavenly soldier and a heavenly general!

I don't know who shouted first: "They are not people, they are ghosts!" ”

Not really! These more than 100 children of the Li family were all wearing heavy armor and thick iron helmets, only revealing their eyes and noses, exuding boundless murderous aura. Their horses are also wearing armor, and from a distance, they look like the rings in "The Lord of the Rings", no wonder arrows can't hurt!

As soon as these words came out, Sergeant Tong was even more frightened, and he couldn't care about the supervising team anymore, so he turned around and ran away.

Tong Yangzhen saw that the general trend had gone, and if he didn't run, he would be left alone on the battlefield, and he had to turn his horse and leave. I thought that although I couldn't get better if I went back, I couldn't care so much if I lived a little longer!

Nurhachi, who had been watching the battle from behind, was also surprised to see such a strong cavalry suddenly appear in the Ming army. But he had fought all his life, and he had never seen any wind and waves, so he immediately yelled: "Who will meet this cavalry!" ”

Before the words fell, a member of the generals had already rushed out, shouting as he rushed: "Great Khan, watch your grandson Wakda kill these Nanbans!" ”

Seeing that it was Wakda, the son of the Great Bel Deshan, Nurhachi smiled and nodded. I thought that Wakda was known for his bravery in the Jurchen army, and taking the head of the enemy general in the thousands of troops was like picking up something, and he led the army to assault, and he would definitely be able to defeat the small cavalry of the Ming army.

But Wakda led hundreds of Jurchen cavalry to charge, but Zhu Youzhen at the head of the city could see it clearly. He was waiting for this moment, and immediately shouted: "Aim at the Tartar cavalry, open fire!" ”

Yuan Chonghuan hurriedly said: "Your Highness, the Tartar cavalry is more scattered than the infantry army, I'm afraid it will not be easy to hit!" ”

"You know what!" Zhu Youzhen hurriedly snatched him up, "Killing one Tartar is more effective than killing a hundred traitors!" Give me concentrated firepower and fire! ”

The gunners were already impatient and immediately lit the fuse. In just a moment, the eight Hongyi cannons, which had been silent for a long time, once again let out an earth-shattering roar!

And this Jurchen warrior Wakda, as soon as he charged forward dozens of steps, was covered by several large iron balls falling from the sky. When the iron ball passed and the dust cleared, Nurhachi looked at it and couldn't help but scream: "Wakda! …”

At this time, Wakda has been smashed into a meatloaf, which is somewhat similar to the tricky Tom cat in "Cat and Mouse". However, Tom always comes back to life with full health on the spot, while Wakda can only make a meatloaf forever.

When Dai Shan saw his son's tragic death, he was so anxious that his eyes were red, and he was about to charge in person, but Nurhachi stopped him with a roar: "No one is allowed to rush!" Retire for now! ”

Houjin's second wave of attacks was repulsed again. Li Chongyao led the army back to the city, and was cheered by all the Ming troops and the people in the city!

Yuan Chonghuan was overjoyed and said: "The official army has always lacked excellent cavalry and cannot fight with the Tartars. In the past, General Zu told the official that Li Jiatie's cavalry could compete with the Tartars, but the official didn't believe it yet. I can see with my own eyes today that the combat power seems to be even higher than that of the Tartars! It's a pity that the number is too small, if our army has these tens of thousands of elite horsemen, it will be able to break the building! ”

Li Chongyao was shy at this time, lowered his head and pursed his lips and said, "My lord praised it falsely." Also, we have decided to join the official army, and the word 'Li family' will not need to be mentioned in the future! ”

Zhu Youzhen also came over and said: "Since the eldest lady said so, this army might as well be called 'Guanning Iron Cavalry' in the future!" ”

Yuan Chonghuan tasted it for a while, and laughed and said, "Your Highness's name is good!" With Guanning Iron Ride, Shanhaiguan and Ningyuan have no worries! ”
