In a short period of time, the two sides clashed. Broken limbs and dead bodies of men and horses were left on the ground. The cavalry's attack is so cruel. The moment that determines life and death requires decisiveness, bravery, prompt decision-making, and the determination to die together.
At the moment when the two sides' war horses passed each other at high speed, the one who hesitated must have died. Chu Zhentang and others rushed over and passed through the formation.
Gradually reduce the horse's speed, then turn and turn back. Prepare to charge again. Now, although plate armor is no longer equipped, it is replaced by stab-resistant cloaks. These cloaks are hooded and have a row of buttons on the chest to fasten.
The opponent's saber cannot cut or pierce it. Of course, if the opponent uses heavy weapons to smash them, there will still be no defensive effect.
Not enough, these people are scouts, that is, reconnaissance cavalry. They must reduce weight as much as possible so that the horse can perform at its maximum performance.
Wearing heavy plate armor, they would not be able to do reconnaissance work well. However, what surprised the Eighteen Cavalry was that the cavalry on the opposite side ran away.
He didn't turn around again, and then continued to fight against each other. There were more than one hundred and fifty of them, but they didn't take these eighteen riders seriously at all.
But when they rushed forward, thirty-six people were killed by two-round rifles, and then more than fifty people were killed by double-barreled short-fire muskets.
There were ninety casualties in one fell swoop. There were only more than sixty people left. When the two sides fought hand to hand, twenty-one people were beheaded again.
This scared them almost crazy. Who is this person and why is he so scary? The remaining forty-odd people didn't need anyone to direct them at all. After they rushed past, they all ran away.
At this time, if you don't run, why don't you still wait for the other party to rush over? Chu Zhentang secretly cried out that it was a pity. Each of them had four double-barreled muskets unfired.
If you deliberately hedge again, they will definitely be wiped out. Since the opponent ran far away, he left a large circle and ran towards the camp.
They won't pursue it either.
"We will go, and this time there will be no more blind flies, annoying ones following us." The Eighteen Cavalry Juechen left, and they were dazzled by the densely packed rebels not far away.
Why does it feel unreal that the Ming Dynasty actually has such elite cavalry? Rushing over, as if entering a deserted place, seeing their reality completely.
Then he chopped down two-thirds of the chasing cavalry like melons and vegetables. In the end, they left without any casualties.
The more than 50,000 rebel troops under Tongzhou City were regarded as air.
"This is Dingyuan Bo's Xinghe regiment training. This is Xinghe regiment training. They are not official soldiers." Someone shouted in horror.
It's not surprising that these people can be recognized, because they are the defeated soldiers who came from Xianghe County. A commotion quickly arose among the rebels.
They still know the reputation of Uncle Dingyuan. Uncle Dingyuan was pushed to nine thousand years old, and then he wiped out Monan Mongolia and became powerful in all directions.
"No, Uncle Dingyuan is back."
"No, the Beijing camp is back." Seeing that there was going to be chaos, Huang Tengyuan, the guard at Da'ankou, immediately shouted.
"What nonsense are you talking about? Uncle Dingyuan is in Guihua City. How could he come back?"
"These are just his servants." He was the biggest official in the rebellion, and all the rebel battalion officers also took orders from him.
The other officers and soldiers who were unwilling to join the bandits ran away. Huang Tengyuan was actually the leader of these rebels at this time.
The battalion officers who participated in the rebel battalions also came out to restrain the troops and eliminate panic.
"Brothers, don't be afraid. The capital is very empty. The capital is three thousand miles away and there is no time to come back. When we capture Tongzhou, we will open the door to the capital." The capital is surrounded by dignitaries. Grange, there is so much wealth there.
The land there has been annexed over more than two hundred years. There are no more yeoman farmers.
The rich people's manor houses not only have a large amount of food and materials, but also gold and silver and other hard currencies. There are also domestically-raised diva beauties.
Especially those civil servants, who are both responsible and established. Living in a shabby house in the capital, eating rough food, I wish my clothes were all patched.
The old wife at home is even more plainly dressed. There is some vegetable soup left from the meal at home, and she will save it for the next meal.
But in their manor outside the city, there is a big house, luxurious decoration, expensive furniture, and a Soviet-style garden that costs a lot of money.
Hordes of slaves. It was in stark contrast to the situation in the city. Even when these civil servants went out to party and have fun, they mostly stayed in gardens outside the city.
I rarely have fun in Bada Hutong. Because there is a censor in the city to supervise the conduct of the people. Those who go to brothels and Chu houses in the capital are all second generation.
Where are you jealous and vindictive? These people have been grabbing attention for a while. They suddenly realized that they were really stupid before.
The poor family can barely eat the rice bran. Really desperate. This time I just rebelled against him.
Let go of the robbery. Whether it's an official warehouse or a private house, grab it all the way. It turns out that the fastest way to make a fortune in the world is robbery.
The money came in really fast. They rebelled, so naturally they didn't dare to leave their family behind. They swept all the way with their family papers and robbed them non-stop.
Now each of them has grabbed a lot of wealth, and the family is pushing the stolen chicken bus, containing food, clothes, and belongings.
Like locusts spreading across the land. Everywhere they passed, they were looted. They have tasted the sweetness, and naturally they are not willing to end the lucrative career of bandits so quickly.
At this time, they defeated the guardsmen who came to encircle and block them. Even the soldiers sent by the emperor were beaten and fled.
Their confidence was almost through the roof. However, they were still afraid of Jingying. After all, they were the most elite troops of the Ming Dynasty.
I heard that Uncle Dingyuan led them all the way to victory and defeated the Mongols. Therefore, when I heard that the eighteen riders were from Uncle Dingyuan, I was so frightened that I almost ran away with the stolen goods.
They actually never thought about what they would do in the end and where they would end up. Because they were so dazzled by the victory all the way, they never thought about how this incident would end.
What will happen to them in the end. They were in a state of excitement, their eyes bloodshot, trying to grab more things.
"Brothers, let's work together to capture Tongzhou City, and we will march to the capital."
"Let's ask the emperor why he doesn't pay me and why he wants to lay off us. In this world, if we leave the military camp, our family will starve to death."
"Yes, let's ask the emperor why he used these traitorous ministers and why he poisoned us. Damn it, if he doesn't pay severance pay and poisons us to death, is there any justice or king's law?"
