As a unique weapon of the Ming Dynasty - the three-eyed fire gun, it is certainly not tailor-made for the Guanning Iron Cavalry. It's just that the predecessor of the Guanning Iron Cavalry, the Liaodong Iron Cavalry, found that the Three-Eyed Fire Gun was particularly suitable as their main battle weapon, so holding the Three-Eyed Fire Gun has become a major feature of the Liaodong Iron Cavalry.

In the front team led by Wu Sangui, the three hundred people at the front were all the families of military generals at all levels in Liaodong, that is, the real Guanning Iron Cavalry. In order to defeat Kong Youde's rebels this time, the generals of Liaodong were also willing to spend their money.

These families and their horses were dressed in fine armor and harness. And these armor, as long as the distance is not too close, can effectively protect against the shooting of birds and bows and arrows.

In the manufacture of fire guns in the Ming Dynasty, except for Wu Shigong, an outlier, they all embarked on a misunderstanding. The army and craftsmen of the Ming Dynasty were so keen on the range and accuracy of the firebolt that they did not hesitate to give up the power of the firebolt shot.

Therefore, the Ming Dynasty army believed that a well-made fire gun barrel should be made thin and long, so that the strange type of fire gun appeared. What's even more puzzling is that the cost of making bird guns is also about twice as high as the price of Wu Shigong's heavy firecrackers, and the manufacturing time is long, and the craftsmanship requirements for craftsmen are high. This situation can only make people sigh, probably the silver of the Ming Dynasty court is a little too much.

And because of Sun Yuanhua's sufficient military spending, the rebels were equipped with a large number of "sophisticated" birds. Therefore, the Guanning Iron Cavalry will be the first to face the shot of the bird.

When the first row of Guanning Iron Cavalry rushed to a distance of about a hundred paces from the rebels, the rebels' musketeers and archers standing in front began to fire their first shots. The quality of the rebel gunners and archers from Dongjiang Town is indeed quite high, and they all have a stable psychological quality, facing the fierce Guanning Iron Cavalry, they can suppress the range, put the Guanning Iron Cavalry into the range of the bird gun and then shoot.

But the power of the bird and the bow and arrow is too small. Except for a few unlucky Guan Ning Iron Riders who were shot in the exposed parts, the other Guan Ning Iron Riders were unscathed.

As soon as the rebel musketeers and archers finished shooting, they immediately ran backwards around the infantry phalanx on the left flank of the rebels without hesitation, trying to hide behind the infantry phalanx. And the pikemen in the front row of the rebel infantry phalanx also put their spears forward in a flower array, ready to meet the charge of the Ming cavalry on the opposite side.

But suddenly, at this time, the rebels were surprised to hear the sound of gunfire from the charging cavalry, and a group of rebel gunners and archers who were standing in the front row and had not had time to run away were suddenly killed and wounded on the ground.

Where did this musket shoot come from? Except for some rebels from the old Dongjiang Town. The other rebels didn't expect that this was the three-eyed fire gun in the Guanning Iron Rider.

In fact, the casualties caused by this shooting to the rebels were not large, but it suffered an inexplicable blow, and the entire left wing of the rebels was stunned. The front row of rebel pikemen in a long line of pikemen. All loosened formations.

But before the rebel soldiers could react, there was another burst of firearms. Now naked in the front row. The rebel soldiers who had set up a spear array were instantly killed and wounded. This successive blows made the rebels on the left flank somewhat commotion.

But it wasn't over yet, followed by the third firing of the gun, and the rebel spear array, which could no longer accept the casualties and psychological blows, immediately collapsed. At this time, the rebel soldiers standing in the front row were horrified to find that the cavalry of the Ming army had rushed in front of him.

In fact, all this happened in a very short time. That is, the time of five or six inhales. And the Guanning Iron Cavalry, which rushed at high speed, suddenly rushed into the distance of more than 20 steps of the rebel formation. Leaving only a bloody clearing behind him.

The cavalry of the Guanning Iron Cavalry, although they were also lined up to carry out waves, but between their cavalry. It was not like the red-eye tactics of the Runing battalion, which were arranged very closely. Therefore, when they rushed for more than 20 steps and landed at a high speed, Guan Ning's iron cavalry picked up the three-eyed fire gun in his hand, used it as an iron rod and a hammer, and smashed it into the head of the rebel soldiers around him, making the rebel soldiers cry wolf. The two thousand-strong infantry phalanxes in the front row of the rebels' left flank were scattered at once.

Then there is the second row of Guanning Iron Cavalry, and the third row of Guanning Iron Cavalry. The entire left flank of the rebels was in chaos.

When he saw the cavalry rushing towards his left flank take out a three-eyed firearm to shoot, Kong Youde's eyelids jumped. Because in the entire Ming army, only Guan Ning Tieqi used the three-eyed fire gun as his weapon. This is all too familiar to Kong Youde, who is also from Liaodong.

But in Kong Youde's heart, after all, there was still some luck, and he still hoped that there might be a Ming army that he didn't know yet, learning the tactics of the Guanning Iron Cavalry.

But Kong Youde's luck psychology was quickly broken. Rows of Guanning iron horsemen, like hard stones into snowdrifts, constantly splashed the left flank of the rebels. The cavalry of the Liaodong Army in the back was also divided into battle groups, and they wanted to continue to attack the left flank of the rebels.

Just before those battle groups were about to charge, the entire Liaodong Army was cheering, and their flags were finally raised. Looking at the familiar surnames on the flag, Kong Youde's heart sank, he understood that he had been tricked, and this Ming army was the Guanning Iron Cavalry that had been replaced by a fake.

The cavalry battle group of the Liaodong Army also began to charge, and they attacked the rebel left flank soldiers who were still gathered together in turn, and they were still resisting, regardless of the rebels who fled in all directions, just to completely defeat the left flank of the rebels.

Seeing that the army on his left flank had been eroded, and this collapse was about to spread to his own Chinese army, Kong Youde gave an order to Li Yingyuan with an expressionless face: "This battle has been defeated. Hurry up and bring back all the people of our old Liao army, and some of the others can be withdrawn. ”

"Uncle Kong, you can't run a few if you just walk like this!" Li Yingyuan persuaded him, "The strength of our Chinese army and the right wing is still there, so let's transfer troops and fight with that officer and army." ”

The whole battle was quite short, less than half an hour, and the two sides had only exchanged a round. So the young and vigorous Li Yingyuan was a little unwilling.

"It's useless. That officer and army are Guanning Iron Cavalry! Kong Youde said. Although he has a deep enmity with the Guanning Iron Cavalry, among the generals in Dongjiang Town, he also has a strong fear of the Guanning Iron Cavalry, "If we don't leave, even we won't be able to go." You see that the Ming army on the right flank is also about to move, and they also have a fierce cavalry. ”

"This time, we suffered a loss, and we didn't know that the opposite side was Guanning Tieqi. Now that you know, it's not a big deal. When we went back, we gathered all the old Liao troops, as well as horse teams, chariots and artillery, and we didn't know who would kill the deer next time we met. ”

Then, Kong Youde called a few more personal soldiers and asked them to go to Li Jiucheng, who was presiding over the siege of Laizhou City, to report to him, and ask him to quickly withdraw the rebels and artillery besieging Laizhou City.

After arranging all this, Kong Youde took the lead and retreated to the rear.

The appearance of the Guanning Iron Cavalry not only surprised Kong Youde, but also made the coalition military attache who saw the battle process stunned. But after reacting, he knew that he was going to win a big victory today, and the coalition forces also let out deafening cheers here.

But Wu Shigong, the officers of the Runing Battalion, couldn't laugh in their hearts. Today's performance of Guan Ning Tieqi gave them too powerful a shock.

Due to the successive victories, the Runing battalion inevitably had a very proud mentality. They all thought that their Runing battalion was already the first class strong army in the world.

However, seeing the performance of the Guanning Iron Cavalry today, the officers of the Runing Battalion had to admit that the strongest Ming army like the Guanning Iron Cavalry, their combat effectiveness level was also on the same level as the Runing Battalion.

However, the number of Guanning Iron Cavalry far exceeds that of the Runing Battalion, and compared to all the strength, the Runing Battalion is definitely far inferior. There is also technology and tactics, today's use of the three-eyed firearm by the Guanning Iron Cavalry completely broke the common sense of the Runing battalion.

In the current Runing camp, there are also the ten three-eyed firearms that Xue Lian gave to Wu Shigong at the beginning. However, because of the bulkiness of the Three-Eyed Firegun, that is, because of its bulkiness, it was used in the defense of the fortress as a supplement to the artillery, and did not attach too much importance to the Three-Eyed Firegun.

As for the performance of the Runing battalion in red-eye tactics, after the firecracker was fired, the tactics of throwing down the firearm and riding the spear to charge, the whole Runing battalion thought it was their own innovation. However, after seeing the use of the Three-Eyed Fire Gun by the Guanning Iron Cavalry today, he found that this tactic had already been played by the Guanning Iron Cavalry. I'm really a little bit sitting in the well and watching the sky! I don't know how many good tactics there are, and they are not known by the Runing Battalion, which only knows behind closed doors!

In addition, the Guanning Iron Cavalry was repeatedly defeated by the Later Jin army in Liaodong. So how strong will the real strength of the Houjin Army be? A chill couldn't help but rise on the backs of the officers of the Runing Battalion. Wu Shigong couldn't help but think in his heart: "I used to underestimate the heroes of the world. ”

The entire rebel formation was actually very long, with more than 18,000 people lining up for a distance of more than a mile. As a result, the rebel mid-line and most of the soldiers on the right flank, who were in the same row, could not see what was really happening on their left flank.

However, with Kong Youde's retreat, the commander's general flag also retreated, which immediately caused the rebels' morale to waver.

"It's Guan Ning Tieqi who called!" This is the cry of some old Liao soldiers.

"We've been defeated!" This is the cry of the soldiers who saw Kong Youde's handsome banner retreating.

"Let's run!"

……

As a result, the rebel soldiers did not obey the orders of their respective officers at all, and scrambled to withdraw to the rear.

And seeing that it was only his own coalition army approaching, the right wing soldiers of the rebels on the opposite side were in chaos, and Liu Zeqing was a little undecided. "Respect my brother. Don't be in a daze! What should we do? Liu Zeqing habitually asked Wu Shigong again.

Wu Shigong suddenly sobered up from his reflection, and he said with a smile: "Of course I stepped forward to fight!" In front of them are the first ranks, and the military exploits are all white silver! ”

"That's it!" Chen Zhongzhi echoed on the side.

"Good! All the army is attacking! (To be continued......)
