"Attack——"
With an order, the Qing army, which controlled a large number of cavalry, took the initiative.
Meng Baqi was forced to wear leather armor, and his braided hair swayed up and down as the horse ran.
The Mongolian cavalry were like flexible monkeys on horseback, with their legs firmly clamped on the horse's back, waving their scimitars and shouting.
Thousands of troops and horses looked amazing.
Ji'erharang and others looked at his army. Although they were wary, they still had some hope.
As long as these Mongols can break through the front army, the Ming army will naturally be vulnerable.
Zhu Yixi also saw the Mongolian cavalry.
Worthy of being the descendants of Genghis Khan and the masters of the Mongolian plateau, the Mongolian Eight Banners have superb riding skills, and many of them are capable of riding and shooting.
That is to say, as the horse rises and falls, Meng Baqi can shoot arrows while riding a horse, and he can still keep his head accurately during the bumps. This kind of person is one in a hundred.
As far as Zhu Yixi knew, even in the Manchu Qing Dynasty, this kind was rare.
For example, when fighting Duduo in Henan, the Eight Banners often stopped their horses to shoot, and were unable to shoot from horseback.
"Mongolian Eight Banners!"
Zhu Yixi sighed.
I have to say that thanks to Huang Taiji, the Manchu Qing Dynasty did an excellent job in united front.
The Eight Banners of Mongolia and the Eight Banners of Han were both established in his hands, and he changed the tactics of Nurha Chibi's massacre and implemented feudalization.
In particular, Lin Dan Khan, who ruled the Chahar tribe, attempted to unify Mongolia, but was besieged and defeated by Huang Taiji and the Mongolian tribes. Huang Taiji incorporated the Chahar tribe.
The Chahar tribe is the descendant of Genghis Khan's Qixue army. It has always been under the direct jurisdiction of the Jin family and is the most powerful tribe in Mongolia.
The three ethnic groups, Manchu, Mongolian and Han, unite and complement each other's advantages. This kind of united front is really good.
"Your Majesty, the Mongols are here to die."
On the side, Li Jingwu looked down, his face solemn.
"Yeah!" Zhu Yixi said with a smile: "The Mongols are very good at riding and shooting. They have a larger population than the Jurchens, so they are definitely afraid of them."
Looking from high up, one can see the Meng Ba Banner starting from both wings in a menacing manner, circling forward and sprinting towards the two wings.
In the front army, the Manchu heavy armored infantry remained motionless, waiting for military orders.
Obviously, the Mongols were cannon fodder, attracting most of the Ming army's strength.
The feared Manchu Eight Banners were roaming on both wings, seemingly supporting and supervising at any time.
"Now that the arrangements are complete, we can only rely on the Beijing camp."
The emperor's tone was quite serious.
"preparation--"
Accompanied by the sound of horse hooves, the soldiers holding spears, with their hands full of sweat, listened to the officers' instructions.
"Step to the left, lean forward, tilt the gun -"
Immediately, a large number of spears changed from vertical to slanted, like hedgehogs, and the density was terrifying.
Even though the spearmen in front were wearing heavy armor, they could not help but tremble slightly and their eyelids twitched.
For the soldiers in the rear, the heavy sound of horse hooves was like a drum, constantly beating on their hearts and constantly draining their courage.
Jia Yan could see clearly and naturally knew that many of these people were new recruits who had been in the camp for only half a year. They had little combat experience and had experienced even less fierce battles.
His lips were a little white, but he knew he had to do something: "The emperor is watching us from above, what are you afraid of!"
"With the emperor here, we will definitely win. Kill those Jiannu slaves——"
At the same time, a large number of officers continued to boost morale:
"Hold the spear tightly and stab the horse——"
"Are your two eggs inflated? I'm so scared..."
But the veterans, knowing their situation, actually had the leisure to tear some vegetable pancakes from their arms to soothe their mood.
"咻咻咻——"
Before the Mongols arrived, the flung arrows had already arrived.
The dense rain of arrows, no less powerful than rain, hit the armor with crackling sounds. Except for some unlucky ones, almost no one was injured.
Jia Yan also breathed a sigh of relief.
Although his armor is not as good as that of heavy infantry, it is extremely comprehensive and has no gaps.
"Bang, bang, bang -" Gu Xuan
Suddenly, there were loud noises ahead, which were different from guns and guns, but a heavy impact.
Jia Yan was immediately worried. This was the sound of horses hitting the military formation.
I don’t know how many people were trampled or killed.
In order to prevent falling into the formation, even the armor of the infantry on both wings and in the front is comparable to that of heavy infantry.
Suddenly, many people stepped back, and many people were trampled in the crowd.
"forward--"
At this time, his boss also shouted at the top of his lungs.
Jia Yan followed and shouted, and the soldiers worked together and returned to their original positions.
Haven't taken a breath yet.
"emission--"
At this moment, military orders came from his ears.
A large number of arrows were thrown forward, but the archers still showed off their power. It was obvious that they had been patiently waiting for an opportunity.
In less than a blink of an eye, there was a lot of artillery shelling, and the smell of sulfur and saltpeter filled his nose, making him want to sneeze.
"It seems that the main force is here."
When Jia Yan heard this, he still didn't understand. The temptation was over and the real war had begun.
"what happened?"
Jierhalang looked forward, frowning.
In his sight, the Eight Mongolian Banners were like two poisonous tongues, flying into the wings of the Ming army.
At the beginning, the neat military formation of the Ming army was like a piece of pastry that had been chewed into a large dent.
About a third.
Not long after he was happy, those dented pastries, like black sewage, surrounded the tall cavalry and kept devouring them. After a while, they returned to their original shape.
As for the Mengba Banners in the rear, they all reined in their reins and hesitated, not daring to move forward.
Obviously, the Ming army completely surprised the Mongols.
Not only did the military formation not collapse, it actually adjusted itself.
"No wonder he can defeat Dodo."
Jirharang said coldly.
"Let Meng Baqi continue to move forward and not retreat -"
When he expected that this battle would be difficult, Jierhalang thought that the Manchu Banner would definitely suffer a lot of casualties, so it was necessary to weaken the Mengba Banner in time.
Immediately, he looked forward.
In the front army, when the two wings of the Ming army were sunken, the front army set off.
Holding shotguns, the Eight Banners soldiers were wearing heavy armor and approaching step by step with slow but heavy steps.
The Ming army remained motionless, as if waiting for the enemy to come forward.
Two hundred steps, one hundred and fifty steps, one hundred steps.
The Ming army has not fired yet.
"continue--"
Eighty steps, fifty steps...
At this time, the Qing army couldn't bear it anymore and began to erupt:
Bang bang bang bang——
Three rows of infantry lined up, one kneeling, one leaning down, and one standing straight up.
The muskets began to ignite and fired forward on a large scale. The density of muskets in each round was three times more than normal.
This is a triple shot.
After the Qing army fired, the infantrymen with guns strode forward. Even though soldiers continued to fall, they still could not stop them.
Until thirty steps away.
"ignition--"
As soon as the order was given, the gunmen in front stopped immediately.
