Just when everyone secretly sighed in their hearts that what Huang Taiji did was too despicable. The Houjin Army, which was arrayed three miles away, unexpectedly surprised everyone, changed from passive to active, and directly advanced to everyone's position in an offensive formation.

Of course, the idea of using tens of thousands of people as cannon fodder was directly displayed vividly at this time.

Ten thousand-man teams composed of 10,000 people, driven by hundreds of young and strong Tartars, were like walking corpses, and they were very mechanically moving towards everyone step by step.

At the same time, a real offensive force composed of 10,000 musketeers and 10,000 Tartar iron cavalry. He followed closely behind 10,000 people and launched a deadly attack on himself at any time.

Faced with the picture in front of him that exceeded everyone's imagination, he had not yet thought of the dozen or so officers of the Haw Par Army who had cracked the Tartar tactical tactics. As if they had been discussed, they focused their worried eyes on Wei Zheng.

Although Wei Zheng's mind hid the tactical tactics of hundreds of years in the future, however, where weapons are very limited, Wei Zheng's mind is also blank, and there is no solution.

Therefore, in the face of everyone's gaze towards him, Wei Zheng could only respond to everyone with silence and solemnity.

However, if there is no way to crack it, there is no way to crack it, which does not mean that Wei Zheng will be indifferent in the face of the attack, watching the Tartars fill his army formation and fight with the soldiers under his command.

In less than a cup of tea, Wei Zheng's silent and gloomy face was covered with murderous aura, and it was still very murderous.

After taking a deep breath, he directly opened his mouth and ordered: "Order, artillery unit." Directly over the ordinary people who stood in front of the Tartars. Shoot flowering shells at the Tartar Army. ”

"Ordinary people standing in front of the Tartars. Although it can block the lead bullet fired directly from the musket. However, there is no way to stop the flowering bullets that fall from the sky...... The artillerymen were ordered to fire at the Tartar attacking troops at their fastest rate of fire. ”

Accompanied by the roaring sound of artillery on the battlefield, hundreds of flowering shells, like meteor showers, smashed towards the Tartars hiding behind the people. Soon, there were fireballs mixed with a large amount of black smoke. It rose into the air in the middle of the huge army formation of the Tartars.

However, there were simply too many people for the Tartars to attack. Although the explosion of flowering shells resounded on the battlefield non-stop, the casualties caused by these flowering shells to the Tartars were simply not worth mentioning compared to their huge forces.

Therefore, the 20,000 Tartar attacking troops directly ignored these losses. Facing the flowering bullets that keep falling overhead, continue to attack forward. And it's getting faster and faster. There is no intention of stopping.

When the mighty army formation of the Tartars successfully advanced to a position one mile away from the Tiger and Leopard Army. 20,000 Tartar attacking troops. There were less than 4,000 people who really fell under the fire of the Haw Par Army.

More importantly, Huang Taiji, who was guarding the back and controlling the overall situation, seemed to see the hope of victory from this attack. He even sent 10,000 iron horsemen again to join the battlefield with an unstoppable momentum.

At this time, all the generals guarding Wei Zheng's side knew that the Tartar Emperor Taiji was going to fight with him.

Born as a bandit, he was the commander of the 3rd Infantry Division who followed Wei Zheng from the very beginning. Facing the increasingly depressing atmosphere around him, he stood up directly and said: "Dashuai, I am a rough person and don't understand any big truths. However, I will settle the score. In my opinion, compared with the 10,000 ordinary people standing in front of the Tartars, the lives of tens of thousands of soldiers around us are more valuable. ”

"Therefore, the last general implored the commander to give orders to the regiments at once. As soon as the opponent comes into the range of the musket, no matter who they are, they will shoot immediately, and avoid close combat with the Tartars as much as possible......"

With the leader, the other division commanders no longer cared about their reputations, and directly instigated Wei Zheng: "Marshal, you can order the shooting...... At the moment of the great enemy, you can't have any woman's kindness. Otherwise, tens of thousands of soldiers behind us will die here. ”

Facing the anxious gaze of his subordinates looking at him, facing the Tartar who was getting closer and closer to him in front of him. Wei Zheng really had the idea of shooting immediately and shooting anyone in his heart.

However, every time the order was about to be spoken, it was suppressed by the last shred of reason in his heart.

After some hesitation, he directly vetoed his subordinates: "No, the Tartars are beasts, we are not...... Standing in front of the Tartars were unarmed ordinary people, and Ben Shuai believed that even if Ben Shuai gave the order to shoot, the soldiers under his command might not be able to bear the heart and shoot at the unarmed people and even their relatives. ”

"Don't forget, these people who stand in front of the Tartars are all from Liaodong. And among the tens of thousands of soldiers around us, there are at least 5,000 Liaodong soldiers. Do you want Ben Shuai to give the order to let them shoot their own relatives and shoot their own relatives? ”

As soon as Wei Zheng finished speaking, a division commander asked with an anxious face: "But, Marshal, apart from shooting, blocking them at a hundred paces, and shooting them in large numbers with muskets, do we have any other way?" ”

"Do we really want to give up the muskets, exchange human lives for human lives, and engage in close combat with the Tartars?"

After Wei Zheng shook his head again, he vetoed loudly: "No, there must be other ways, but we didn't think of it." ”

At this time, Wang Feng, who was standing beside Wei Zheng, seemed to have made up his mind, and said directly to Wei Zheng beside him: "Dashuai, whether there is any other way or not, for us, there is no time......

"The last general, like everyone else, ask the commander to give the order to shoot. All the blame, the governor of Liaodong will bear the responsibility, and I will definitely not ruin the reputation of my tiger and leopard army because of this incident, please give the order ...... the marshal."

"Please give the order to the marshal......" Under Wang Feng's lead, everyone shouted at the same time as if they had been discussed.

However, everyone's unanimous voice did not affect Wei Zheng.

Wei Zheng, who was surrounded by everyone, continued to frown as if he hadn't heard anything, and thought about the solution with a heavy face and without saying a word.

In such a situation, Wang Feng and the others who were standing beside them could only be in a hurry. I watched the Tartar keep leaning towards him, but there was nothing he could do.

Just when Wang Feng couldn't help but want to directly pass Wei Zheng and directly give the order to shoot.

Wei Zheng's eyes suddenly shot out two sharp gazes.

Then, he said in an astonishing voice: "Commander Wang is right, there is indeed no time. ”

"However, I, Wei Zheng, am not a person who lets my brother carry the black pot and enjoy it in the back by himself. If the order to shoot is really to be given, it will be given by the commander himself, and he will personally bear the attacks and slanders from all sides......"

"Dashuai, you have decided, immediately give the order to shoot......" Wang Feng breathed a sigh of relief, and subconsciously asked.

Wei Zheng nodded in affirmation: "It was a decision to make, but it was not an order to shoot, but a retreat......"

"Retreat......" Wang Feng asked rhetorically with a look of incredulity.

Wei Zheng didn't let everyone wait too long, and directly affirmed: "Yes, it's a retreat...... However, this retreat of Ben Shuai was not a direct retreat to Liaodong, but a fight while retreating, and the Tartars were wiped out little by little on our retreat road. ”

After speaking, Wei Zheng directly opened his mouth and ordered: "Time is pressing, wait for Ben Shuai to finish this battle, and then I will explain to you in detail." The commander ordered: The heavy artillery regiment should immediately retreat three miles and rearrange the heavy artillery position, and the speed must be ...... fast."

"The heavy mortar companies, the medium mortar companies, under the command of the company commanders, alternately retreated in platoon units and continued to fire artillery fire on the Tartar attacking forces. The Tartars were dragged down by tens of thousands of civilians, and the attack was very slow. As long as the rhythm of retreat and artillery bombardment is mastered, the Tartar attacking troops will always be under our shelling. ”

"Men of musketeers, cavalrymen, keep the formation unchanged, retreat in an orderly manner. However, in the process of retreating, it is necessary to ensure that the enemy and the enemy are arduous and always in a position of about one mile. As soon as the Tartar attacking forces pass over the people standing in their way, they will attack us. All the soldiers can stop retreating as soon as possible and prepare for battle. ”

This retreat process of Wei Zheng is not only complicated, but also very cumbersome.

One is not good, and the entire army formation will fall into chaos during the retreat.

Such a military order, even if it was issued to the most elite border army of the Ming Dynasty, they would not be able to do it.

But. Wei Zheng is full of confidence in the Haw Par Army he has trained.

Because, when the other armies of the Ming Dynasty were still training their soldiers in martial arts. Wei Zheng has copied the cohort training and turned it into a subject that must be trained in the three-month recruit training of the Haw Par Army.

Under such circumstances, Wei Zheng was confident that his subordinates, who had been trained in a harsh queue, would definitely carry out the retreat orders he gave very strictly and orderly.

As a result, tens of thousands of tiger and leopard troops, like a huge war plane, began to retreat in an orderly manner.

However, no matter how the Haw Par Army retreated, the distance between the Haw and Par Army and the Tartar attacking troops remained at about one mile from beginning to end.

More importantly, during the retreat of the troops, there were always more than 100 mortars, which continuously fired flowering shells at the Tartar attacking troops.

The Haw Par Army retreated in an orderly manner without the slightest loss.

Under the cover of tens of thousands of ordinary people, the Houjin Tartars, every time they took a step forward, they would lose several lives under the artillery attack of the Tiger and Leopard Army.

Faced with sudden changes on the battlefield. Riding on the war horse, Huang Taiji, who was still confident just now, was full of expectations for this attack. At this moment, with his mouth open enough to swallow an egg, he looked in shock at the ever-changing battlefield several miles away.

At this moment, under the cover of a shocked expression on his face, Huang Taiji's heart can be described as very complicated.

There are concerns about the strong combat effectiveness of the Haw Par Army in retreating without chaos, and there are also worries about the troops that are being launched and are constantly falling. Of course, there is also the fear of Wei Zheng's purpose for doing this, and he is afraid that his old opponent Wei Zheng is brewing a huge conspiracy that he doesn't know and is still aimed at.
