Chapter 747: Worship!
The development of the entire battle situation has completely exceeded Qin Shuhuai's expectations.
He never expected that Huang Taiji would deploy so many troops in the first line of defense, which was completely a posture to fight with him!
He couldn't help but faintly worry in his heart, if Huang Taiji invested so many troops here, how many troops would he invest in the Big and Small Black Mountain Fort and the Shaling Fort?
Did Zhao Shujiao and Li Dingguo's side also encounter such a strong resistance?
But now he can't think so much, because six thousand cavalry are coming in an instant!
At this time, there were still four masters in the camp, including Wang Datong, the Three Apostles, the Six Apostles, and Shen Xi, as well as the three second-level masters of Qiu Dali, Zhang Taicheng, and Meng Hu.
As for Zhikong, Zhiren, Meng Wei, Li Daliang, Sun Cheng, Sun Bai, Tang Sanniang, the Five Apostles, and the Fujisanren, they had already been sent to the battlefields in the east and west of the city.
Qin Shuhuai took his sword out of the camp, and Wang Datong and others immediately followed.
I saw that in the southwest and southeast directions, in the rolling yellow dust, a large number of elite horses roared.
In the large camp, the Ming army did not panic at all, and the 6,000 shield grabbers had already set up a number of horse rejection formations in the direction of the other party's rush, and they were ready to fight.
The artillery has also adjusted the distance, although more than 20 artillery pieces were killed, the 15 red-coated cannons can still operate normally, but the artillery on the back top is not so skilled.
After the cavalry rushed to a distance of about 1,500 meters, the artillery commander immediately gave the order to open fire!
Fifteen red-clothed cannons suddenly poured out terrifying fury in a thunderous roar!
Boom Boom!
Eight doors bombarded the cavalry in the southeast, and seven doors bombarded the cavalry in the southwest.
After each shell hits the ground, it can set off a splash of soil more than two people high, and leave a large crater on the ground that is five or six zhang wide and half a battle deep!
Of course, it will also bring down all the horses and cavalry within a radius of six feet (about 400 square meters) - because it is the flowering bullet that is extremely destructive to the flesh!
Boom! Boom!
It is conceivable that in the high-speed charge, when the front shells fall and suddenly form a large pit and a war horse falls, the cavalry behind will inevitably trip, and the consequence of stumbling is likely to be that the cavalry in the rear cannot avoid it and directly trample on it.
However, these elite cavalry of the Yellow Banner had excellent skills, relying on superb horsemanship, they dodged in all directions, and dispersed the formation in time, effectively reducing the probability of casualties and overturning.
The charge of the horsemen was very fast, and the red-coated cannons of the Ming army only fired three rounds, and they were already at a distance of two hundred meters from the camp, which was not within the range of the red-coated cannons.
But these three volleys still caused the Tatar cavalry to lose more than 200 horses, in addition to more than 300 horses, which either fell and broke their bones, or were so frightened that they could not walk on the ground. As a result, the owners of these more than 300 horses could only be turned from cavalry to infantry, and they fell behind the army.
Now, the cavalry of the Tartars in the strict sense of the word is only five thousand and a half!
At the forefront was the Ming army's rejection array, but due to lack of manpower, it was impossible to arrange it seamlessly, so it could only be deployed in several directions.
The Tartar cavalry was naturally reluctant to touch the horse rejection array head-on, so they flexibly adjusted their direction, wanting to pass through the gap in the middle of several horse rejection formations!
"Kill!"
Seeing that the other party was about to pass through the gap, the Ming soldiers had already made a plan, and several horse rejection formations immediately closed towards the gap that the Tartar cavalry was trying to cross!
The strong shield soldiers rushed forward first, resisting the impact of the war horse with their large shields, while the spearmen behind did not hesitate to stab the war horse!
"Bang bang bang!"
The sound of horses' hooves hitting shields!
"Dangdang!"
The sound of a saber slashing on a shield.
"Poof!
It was the sound of a spear stabbing a horse, or a saber slashing a man's head!
Ao Bai took the lead, because the Ten Elephants Tianluo Gong has been completed, and now his strength is incomparable, a shiny treasure knife can be cut in half, even a refined shield can be split in half with a knife, it seems that everything in the world is in front of him, all of which are papier-mâché!
This is a terrifying power! Anyone who sees it will be amazed!
He rushed all the way and killed more than 20 Ming soldiers in the blink of an eye.
He originally thought that with the temperament of the Ming army, he would not be able to avoid seeing him as a killing god, but he was surprised to find that the more Ming soldiers he killed, the more they surrounded him and killed him!
And throughout the scene, although the Ming army experienced the strong impact of the strongest cavalry of the 6,000 Dajin, it was still not chaotic - not only was there no chaos, but even the fighting spirit was high, and the killing became more and more ferocious!
These soldiers are firmly standing in their positions at the moment, none of them are at a loss, and none of them are holding their heads and running around!
He was stunned in his heart, and couldn't help but say to himself: I haven't seen you for four years, and now the Ming army is so strong?
You must know that with such an impact, even the Eight Banners Army will be chaotic!
He had a faint sense that something was wrong!
The Great War Begins!
Although the Ming army showed extremely high tactical literacy, the 5,500 elite cavalry of the Zhenghuang Banner were not vegetarians, and after their first charge, they immediately turned their horses' heads and made a second charge.
The tacit understanding between the horsemen and the horsemen, such as the combination of the Ming army's shield spearmen, they also adjusted their tactics, responsible for the collision of the shield soldiers, responsible for the harvesting of the harvest, and disrupted the coordination between the Ming army's shield spearmen with the speed and impact that the cavalry is good at.
The two sides soon became entangled and killed.
After a while, Ao Bai yelled at the cavalry behind him, and suddenly about five hundred cavalry turned their horses and went straight to Qin Shuhuai's camp.
The five hundred reserve cavalry guarding Qin Shuhuai had been waiting for a long time, and they rushed forward to meet the battle without hesitation!
"Qin Shuhuai! We meet again!"
Ao Bai let out a long roar, suddenly jumped up from his horse, and jumped in front of Qin Shuhuai in the blink of an eye.
He was joined by his two senior brothers, Suke Chaole and Yamabatai, as well as seven or eight masters of unknown origin!
And almost at the same time, another shout sounded in the air, "Qin Shuhuai!
It's Helian Batai!
When Qin Shuhuai saw that his old opponents were coming, he couldn't help but shout, "Great!"
After that, the Heavenly Sword came out of its sheath, turned into a little cold, and stabbed to Aobai first!
Wang Datong, the Three Apostles, the Six Apostles, Shen Xi and others beside him also immediately exploded, each looking for an opponent to start a war!
Qin Shuhuai fought against Aobai, Wang Datong singled out Helian Batai, and the three of the Three Apostles, the Six Apostles and Shen Xi saw that Su Ke Chaole and Yang Batai were extremely strong in kung fu, so they had to deal with those two people with three people.
The rest of Qiu Dali, Meng Hu, Zhang Taicheng and others fought with the seven or eight Tartar masters.
Ao Bai had already heard of the name of the Yitian Sword, and when he saw Qin Shuhuai's sword stabbing him, he didn't dare to hold it up at all, so he hurriedly dodged the sword sideways, and then grabbed a Ming soldier next to him and threw it towards Qin Shuhuai!
His power was so great that it was as if he were just throwing a small stone.
Qin Shuhuai wanted to catch up with another sword, but when he saw this, he had no choice but to put away the sword, and at the same time gently dragged the soldier, otherwise the man would be crippled if he landed on the ground!
But it was just such a small action, so that Ao Bai found the killing opportunity, and suddenly rushed towards Qin Shuhuai like a cannonball, and at the same time, the treasure knife in his hand set off a buzz, turning into Bai Lian and heading straight to Qin Shuhuai's throat.
