"kill!"
The setting sun was like blood, and the city of Beijing was filled with cries of killing.
The Ming army came in such a hurry that Dashun's army was stunned for a while.
After all, in their previous impressions, since the death of Sun Chuanting, the Ming army's combat effectiveness was surprisingly strong. During war, the Ming army would either surrender or wait for help. Very few people took the initiative to attack like this. Very few, almost none!
Therefore, after the Ming army made such an uncharacteristic charge, it directly stunned the Shun army standing at the front.
However, when Shunjun generals Suo Tianyao and Hao Yaoqi arrived with their brothers from the old camp, the retreat was slightly curbed, but it was difficult to turn defeat into victory.
On the flank battlefield, the cavalry of the Dashun Army, led by Liu Zongmin, also discovered traces of the Ming Army's cavalry.
"There are actually a large number of cavalry."
Liu Zongmin murmured to himself, looking at the Ming army's formation in the distance, with a hint of disdain in his eyes: "When did the Ming army become so bold that they dared to confront our army?"
Over the years, as a brave and skilled cavalry commander, Liu Zongmin had experienced battles again and again, and had a deep understanding of the combat effectiveness of the Ming army's cavalry.
The frontier cavalry is so powerful that both sides will suffer if a war breaks out.
The Beijing Cavalry...what a rotten fish and shrimp?
A cavalry confrontation is the most splendid battle of the cavalry. Under the hand-to-hand sword, the entire battlefield will be covered with blood.
Liu Zongmin was already a little excited.
After this battle, Dashun will completely become the master of the Central Plains, and Liu Zongmin will also become a famous founding general like Xu Da and Chang Yuchun who will go down in history!
"Charge, after this battle, the city of Beijing will be yours!" Liu Zongmin shouted, "Let us crush the last hope of Chongzhen's son!"
Under Liu Zongmin's loud shout, rows of Dashun cavalry suddenly began to press forward, charging fiercely at the Ming army cavalry!
Like a tiger descending from the mountain!
…
The spring breeze blows on my face, and the chill is awe-inspiring.
Zhu Di, who had a white beard, rode his horse and raised his whip. The horse stepped on the ground. Looking at the Dashun cavalry who were far away from them, he couldn't help but feel excited and sigh.
In the Yongle Dynasty, Ming Dynasty was already invincible, and it had been a long time since there was no opponent worthy of his charge.
Beside Zhu Di, a cavalry commander also rode up on horseback. He bowed to Zhu Di and said, "Your Majesty, the enemy army is approaching fiercely. Please watch the formation from behind to avoid the sharp edge for the time being."
"Avoid his edge?"
Zhu Di sneered, raised the spear directly, and said coldly: "He needs to avoid my sharp edge!"
"Soldiers, make great achievements today! Behead the enemy generals, and the court will give you a heavy reward! The one who kills the thieves first will be made a marquis!"
Voice after voice was passed back and forth in the military formation. Along with the tens of millions of taels of silver confiscated from the house of Emperor Chongzhen Zhu You, all the soldiers were excited and looked at the Dashun cavalry in the distance, as if they were watching each meeting. Walking like silver, with a sense of fanaticism.
"The Ming army is mighty! Ten thousand victories, ten thousand victories, ten thousand victories!"
The cavalrymen waved their weapons. Amidst the loud shouts, Zhu Di did not hesitate at all. He took the lead and charged forward: "Kill!"
"kill!"
More than 20,000 cavalrymen, densely packed in formation, rushed towards the formation of Dashun cavalry like a tsunami, as if they wanted to smash all the Dashun cavalry into pieces!
"kill!"
The earth is shaking and the horses are neighing!
Dashun's more than 14,000 cavalry came like a tide, while the Ming army's 20,000 fine cavalry did not give in, like two tides in the sea, the waves crashed on the shore!
The morale of the Dashun army is high and they are invincible in all attacks.
The elite cavalry of the Ming Army were the most elite cavalry from the three dynasties. Among them were the founding cavalry who followed Zhu Yuanzhang in the southern and northern campaigns, and the Mongolian cavalry who followed Zhu Di in the Jingnan Campaign.
Although the cavalry of the Jiajing Dynasty was trained hard by Zhu Houcong, they were the weakest party in front of the cavalry of the Yongle Dynasty and the Hongwu Dynasty. They could only follow the cavalry of the two dynasties and sweep forward with the force of charge. Come!
"Bang, bang, bang!"
The sounds of fire cannons sounded one after another on the battlefield. Under the random shooting of fire cannons from both sides, soon there was the sound of gold and iron, and people fell on their backs!
For the cavalry who move at such high speed and end up crossing each other, life and death are only a matter of seconds!
After the two armies passed each other, there were fallen corpses and ownerless horses everywhere, and many corpses were even trampled into pulp!
After the first round of charge, the cavalry had been completely scattered, and the cavalry of the Dashun Army were a little at a loss. Usually after this stage, the enemies have been smashed, and the next step is their massacre.
However, today's Ming army is not the Ming army of the Chongzhen Dynasty. The cavalry of the Hongwu and Yongle Dynasties have sufficient experience to deal with this plan, and there is almost no hesitation at all. The neighboring cavalry have organized a new round of small waves, and the court has The Dashun cavalry was at a loss and charged away!
The Ming cavalry raised their sabers, tightened their reins and charged towards the Dashun cavalry again!
"Kill, kill, kill!"
The shouts of killing were loud, and the Dashun army, which had never experienced large-scale cavalry conflicts, encountered a shortcoming. For a moment, their heads shot into the sky and blood flowed everywhere!
Countless broken limbs fell on the battlefield, and the Dashun army had begun to collapse. Liu Zongmin was extremely pale at the moment, and he couldn't figure out why the Ming army suddenly burst out with such fighting power!
The battlefield was already littered with corpses and rivers of blood. The injured soldiers were still wailing, but they were suddenly hit by a charging horse and died on the spot.
"General, we are defeated!"
The deputy general beside Liu Zongmin, He Dacheng, also came over on horseback. His face was very ugly, and there was a deep knife mark on his breastplate. He looked like he had experienced a fight.
"I will take the remaining cavalry to protect His Majesty. You stay, organize the troops and horses, and buy time for Your Majesty!"
Without any hesitation, Liu Zongmin immediately spoke, and at the same time, he quickly fled the battlefield with hundreds of remaining cavalry around him, and fled towards the distance.
He no longer wants to become a famous general like Xu Da and Chang Yuchun. He has only one idea now.
Go back quickly and let His Majesty retreat, otherwise there will be big problems!
He Dacheng, who stayed where he was, couldn't help but look livid.
But there were two Liu Zongmin's personal guards left in the surrounding area. For a while, He Dacheng could only set up the military flag and gather the remaining soldiers.
Zhu Di, who was not far away, felt very happy.
It had been a long time since he had charged like this. Although it was thrilling, this feeling of blood boiling was really addictive!
At this moment, Zhu Di suddenly saw armored soldiers not far away, and a flag was erected. It seemed that the defeated troops were gathering in an orderly manner. He understood a lot immediately, and couldn't help but sneered, and then led his bodyguards with dozens of riders towards that place. The flag embroidered with the word 'Congratulations' rushed away!
He Dacheng, who was gathering the defeated troops, suddenly felt a murderous aura coming towards him. He couldn't help but was startled. Then he raised his head and saw a cavalry carrying a dragon flag charging towards him. The veteran general headed him. He may have a gray face, but he has overwhelming power and unstoppable courage!
For a moment, He Dacheng was a little panicked, but after all, he was also a veteran who followed Li Zicheng in raising troops. He quickly shouted: "Anti-enemy, anti-enemy!"
However, it had no effect. Zhu Di was so powerful that the Ming Dynasty dragon flag was fluttering in the wind. He Dacheng was surrounded by defeated troops. When they saw Zhu Di charging like this, they all gave way, not daring to resist the collision of the horses with their bodies!
As a result, on Zhu Di's charge into battle, such a strange scene occurred.
The soldiers around He Dacheng gave way one after another, like the waves of wheat blown away by the wind in a golden wheat field, separating left and right. He Dacheng did not expect that such a situation would happen again. He was stunned on the spot for a moment. Before he could react, he saw Zhu Di coming with a spear and stabbed He Dacheng under the horse with a spear!
"Uu~!"
Immediately afterwards, Zhu Di pulled the reins of the horse's head, pulled out the blade from his waist, and cut off the flag with the word 'Congratulations' embroidered on it with his hand!
He Dacheng, the general of the Shun Army who originally had high hopes, came to resist the Ming army's charge. He just rode his horse. Before he could organize a counterattack, Zhu Di led several of his guards to kill the general and seize the flag. In an instant, the Shun army was defeated. The morale of the military fell to a low point, and at this moment, bursts of cheers came from the Ming army!
"Wan Sheng! Wan Sheng! Wan Sheng!"
"The Ming army is mighty!"
"..."
Amidst this wave of sound, Zhu Di breathed a sigh of relief. His palms were already extremely sore, but he still did not dare to relax. Then he shouted: "Put down your weapons, surrender and avoid death!"
In an instant, countless people surrendered.
