The battlefield is like knocking down the Bone Cards. A small break affects the overall situation.
The armies of Zheng Longfang and Yao Wenchang were no match for the cavalry battalion. Once they attacked, they collapsed immediately.
The soldiers scrambled to escape, unable to obey orders at all.
Immediately, like the infantry of all ages, they were carried away and attacked the exhausted Eight Banners heavy infantry.
Now, being attacked from both sides, Luck Dehun couldn't bear it anymore, so he could only force Wu Sangui to save people and cover the retreat.
Wu Sangui looked at his violent eyes and could only choose to compromise.
Tens of thousands of cavalrymen came to the rescue.
Li Jingwu was extremely angry. I have just done meritorious service, but you dare to disturb me: "How can a cooked duck fly? I need to learn about the Guan Ning cavalry for a while."
So, he took the lead and led his own soldiers to kill Guan Ning's cavalry. For a moment, he turned in the direction of the cavalry camp.
This behavior shocked Guan Ning's cavalry, and the sudden attack made them stunned.
"It seems that I want to show them some color, otherwise they will underestimate our Guan Ning cavalry!"
Wu Sangui watched with cold eyes. The higher the value of Guan Ning's army, the more he would be attracted by both the Manchu and Ming Dynasties.
Suddenly, Wu Sangui bent down, pulled out a short wooden stick from his boot, and said directly: "Wu Zhao, led the Yiding cavalry to block the Ming army and save the Eight Banners."
"Nuo——" Beside him, a general stood up and knelt down on one knee in response.
"Remember, just give it a try and give it a lesson. Don't get entangled."
Wu Sangui was worried and warned again and again.
Immediately, more than a thousand cavalry suddenly appeared, wearing heavy armor, burly figures, excellent riding skills, and extremely fast.
This cavalry, named Yiding Tuqi, is a private member of the Wu family. Just like its name, it is composed of northern Tatars and servants, and the Wu family raises them generously.
In the face of the general shortage of wages in the north, each of them had a manor with hundreds of acres of land outside the city. They had no worries about food and clothing, so they were willing to die for it.
People in the Qing Dynasty were frightened to hear it.
If Guan Ning's cavalry is the best of the best, then Yiding's cavalry is the best of the best.
With the addition of the Yiding cavalry, the stalemate was instantly reversed, and the cavalry battalion was beaten back.
"boom--"
The cavalry battalion had no choice but to take out their short muskets and began to fight back.
Unexpectedly, this cavalryman also took out a blazing gun, and it was a three-eyed blunderbuss, catching the cavalry battalion off guard.
For the first time, they encountered a cavalryman who had no moral integrity with them.
Other Ming armies and bandits were too poor, while the Manchu Qing Dynasty focused on cavalry and archery. Only the Guan Ning cavalry, especially the Yiding cavalry, who were Qing armies and Han Chinese, would equip such expensive weapons.
After being trapped for a while, Li Jingwu could only watch as Guan Ning's cavalry covered the retreat of the Eight Banners soldiers.
There is no way, no matter in terms of numbers or quality, the cavalry battalion is not its opponent.
Fortunately, their hostility is not deep.
"Is it to save people? Or to show kindness?"
Although it was a pity that the Eight Banners could not be completely wiped out, the cavalry battalion reversed the situation and suffered few losses, which made Zhu Yixi relieved.
"In the final analysis, we still need cavalry!"
The Guan Ning cavalry, which has been affected by climates such as humidity, heat, and rain, still puts huge pressure on them.
For the first time, Zhu Yixi felt a little powerless when faced with a numerical advantage.
If the Guan Ning cavalry attacks the Chinese army regardless of casualties, the consequences are still unknown.
However, from a selfish perspective, Wu Sangui would not do this.
Whether it was the previous show of mercy or the show of mercy just now, this has been verified.
Wu Sangui can still be fought for.
However, not now, but later.
"Huh——" He breathed a long sigh of relief, and the city of Nanjing in the distance stood still.
Zhu Yixi smiled: "From today on, Nanjing City belongs to me."
"Clang-"
Zhang Fang was wearing dozens of kilograms of armor. Suddenly his legs became weak and he fell unconsciously. His cheeks were covered with blood. The smell of blood and earth made him breathless.
The horns on the helmet have long since disappeared.
He struggled to stand up, but after being slashed for a long time, his limbs were weak and weak, plus the weight of the armor, he could only lie down.
"Ah!" Suddenly, a scream woke him up.
I saw a Tatar lying beside me at some unknown time. His helmet fell off, revealing his bare forehead. He was vomiting blood from the corner of his mouth. An ax was deeply embedded in his armor, making it difficult to pull it out.
"Damn Tatars, slave-building—"
Zhang Fang immediately became energetic and looked at the ax beside him, unable to hold it with his sore arms.
This was his companion who was lying on the side. He directly lifted up his helmet and used the horns on it to stab his eyes and nose, again and again.
It took a long time, until he could no longer breathe, and then he took a big breath:
"I and my whole family are the ones who created slaves and did bad things."
According to the military academy, the slaves in the Northeast rebelled, so the court imposed taxes, and then corrupt officials imposed excessive taxes, natural and man-made disasters, and rogue bandits came...
The source is the establishment of slaves, and everything is because of the establishment of slaves.
Drowsily, he heard the sound of his brothers fighting, and unconsciously fell into a coma.
"Brother, wake up, wake up quickly——"
Suddenly, a stream of water hit his face. He opened his thick eyelids and saw a war horse and a lot of cheers.
"how?"
"We won!"
Hu Xinshui spoke with an authentic northern accent, and the war horse snorted under his crotch. He put away the water bag and said happily:
"Get up quickly, just stay alive."
As he spoke, he turned it over and rummaged through the corpse under him before continuing to search to the side.
Although armor, weapons, war horses, etc. cannot be taken away, the money that is carried with them is allowed to be kept privately.
And often, such benefits are the privileges of the first-time army.
The cavalry battalion and the heavy infantry battalion were the first achievements of this battle.
"call--"
Zhang Fang immediately became nervous and his face turned red: "Brother, hurry up, help me take off my armor -"
Hu Xinshui was startled and hurriedly helped him take off his armor, panting from exhaustion.
The strange thing is that as soon as he took off his armor, Zhang Fang jumped for joy like a monkey in the forest:
"You can't miss this unexpected fortune."
"You guy, you scared me!"
Hu Xinshui smiled and cursed, not to be outdone, and acted quickly.
It wasn't until the smoke rose that everyone on the battlefield stopped.
The next work of collecting the corpses belongs to the baggage troops.
At this time, on the city wall, Hong Chengchou had already anticipated the outcome of the war when the Eight Banners were in the quagmire and Guan Ning's cavalry was wandering around.
As a result, the more than a thousand pacesetters he led couldn't wait to withdraw from Nanjing City and headed towards Zhenjiang.
The city wall, which is more than a hundred miles wide, cannot be defended or enclosed.
The Huizhou merchants watched from beginning to end, dumbfounded by the results.
Hu Ju smiled, cupped his hands and said, "Since I'm real, I'll take the first step."
With that said, Shi Shi left.
Liu Zhi, the leader of the salt merchants, was silent.
He regretted it so much that his intestines turned green.
