In 1687 AD, there was a battle at the mouth of the Humar River. There were about 40 Manchurian Eight Banners Solons fighting against about 400 Russian Cossack cavalry. Wen Dai, the deputy governor of Heilongjiang, dispatched 40 armored men, led by two assistant leaders, to go to Yaksa for reconnaissance. As a result, they walked to the mouth of the Huma River and encountered the Russian army.
Due to their numerical disadvantage, the Eight Banners of the Qing Army were quickly surrounded by the Russian army. The Russian army had about the same number of infantry and cavalry, that is, about 200 infantry and about 200 cavalry.
Talhulan, the leader of the Zhenghuang Banner, made a prompt decision: "Take the banner and fight out. I will go first, and you will follow!" ("Heilongjiang General Yamen Archives")
Talhulan slapped his horse and rushed over. After entering the shooting range, Talhulan set up his bow and shot an arrow, directly killing the Rakshasa carrying the flag. Then he set up an arrow again and shot down a Russian prisoner, and successfully broke out of the encirclement.
During the battle, many of the Qing soldiers' horses were killed. But at that time, the Qing army was equipped with one man, two horses or three horses. They immediately changed their horses and fought again, or dismounted and fought on foot.
In the end, the Qing army relied on their superiority in cavalry and archery to successfully tear apart the Russian army's encirclement and successfully break through. The record of the Qing army: "We obtained 5 shotguns and 4 horses. We killed 57 Rakshasa people and injured 19 Rakshasa people."
"Wearing armor Qi Cheng, he shot and killed a Rakshasa and captured a horse. He suffered a bullet wound on his hip and another superficial wound." "Erkuldeyi, wearing armor, shot and killed a Rakshasa. Shot a Rakshasa in the kidney." - "Heilongjiang General Yamen Archives"
The Saurons are so damn cruel, shooting arrows at the kidneys.
If they were just bannermen, they would be far less scary than the Saurons. When Qianlong conquered Burma, those Eight Banners cavalry who shot down the Brown Spey fusiliers with their Qing bows and shocked the British were actually Saurons.
Liu Xingzuo continued: "What a person is best at can be understood by looking at the weapons he will use at a critical moment of life and death."
What he saw most was when the cavalry from both sides passed each other and passed by each other, amid the light of carbide fire. The Qing army's cavalry immediately grabbed bows and arrows, and then shot their opponents to death with a slap in the face. The hand speed is simply outrageous. This also shows that what the Jianzhou people are best at is clearing bows with high power, high pulling force, and heavy arrows.
In order to accommodate their bows and arrows, they even hang their swords differently from other ethnic groups. They hang their swords with the scabbard forward and the handle backward. The purpose is to make it easier to take the bow and arrow from the lower back. Having the scabbard backward affects how quickly they can draw their bow and arrow.
Emperors Kangxi and Qianlong knew the Eight Banners best, and what they said the most was that riding and shooting was the foundation of the Eight Banners. Do not specialize in fowling.
It can be seen that their most terrifying combat power is the clear bow and weighted arrow.
The locust-like rockets brought down a large area of Qing army. Among the remaining people, those in their forties or fifties were the first to react. Their first reaction was to take out a huge Qing bow from the bow pocket on their back. Then he leaned forward and fired the arrow quickly.
At this time, the Ming army had already rushed within 70 meters. The ten thousand archers behind also finished shooting. He put away his riding bow, drew his long sword, and rushed after him.
Seventy meters, within the direct range of the Qing Bow.
However, no one fired their arrows. The gray-haired old Amba has a head full of sorghum seeds. He kicked his panicked nephew down. He roared angrily: "You little brat, why are you so scared? Pick up the bow."
The remaining people around the grain truck who were not hit by the rockets woke up from their panic amidst the scoldings of middle-aged and elderly people. Stopped running around like a headless chicken. One after another, they drew their bows and nocked arrows.
However, they did not shoot, they just drew their bows full and stared at the Ming army getting closer and closer.
Fifty steps, forty steps, thirty steps.
"Fire the arrow!" As the old people yelled, everyone let go of their fingers. Suddenly there was a loud sound of bowstrings. The Qing bow has a terrible pulling force and a loud sound. So many clear bows were fired together, making a deafening sound.
Thirty meters away, a fight was imminent, and thousands of arrows were whizzing towards them. These powerful bows and arrows even brought up a gust of wind, causing the snow foam on the ground to fly up.
Whoosh whoosh! Bang bang bang!
Countless heavy arrows hit the small buckler. Although these cavalry shields were made with a small diameter for convenience and practicality on horseback, they were also covered with iron sheets on the front.
Jiannu's large stainless steel shovel-shaped arrowhead still penetrated these shields easily. The huge shovel-shaped arrow went directly through the shield, sending the Ming army behind them flying backwards. Knocked down the soldiers behind.
In the blink of an eye, seven to eight hundred people were shot into the air.
These middle-aged and elderly archers are very skillful. They can even shoot in the eyes, throat, and between the eyebrows within thirty meters. All killed in one blow. Those young men can shoot through shields, too.
The last thirty meters became a road soaked in blood. After paying two thousand casualties, the 20,000 people did not collapse, but rushed into the queue of Zhenglan Banner. The hand-to-hand combat begins.
The Ma family's cavalry rushed to the front and suffered huge casualties. The combat effectiveness of Tan Shide's cavalry was far inferior to that of the Ma family's cavalry. The Ma family's cavalry are mainly from Liaodong. They have been fighting with Mongolian and Jiannu slaves all year round.
However, they still have no problem fighting against the wind. The soldiers and horses of the Ma family charged in front, and they followed and killed. Ma Xi knew these situations and would definitely suffer a lot if her son rushed ahead. But there is no way. He did not dare to let Tan Shide's cavalry take the lead.
In that burst of arrows just now, two thousand people were killed or injured. It must have been shot to pieces by the Qing army. When the time comes, they all turn around and run back. His troops were also thrown into chaos. This will cause the ambush to fail.
The soldiers of the Ma family were relatively good at fighting. This kind of general had become a semi-warlord by the end of the Ming Dynasty. They are more perceptive than ordinary civil servants, and they know that elite soldiers and strong generals are the foundation for their foothold. Therefore, the exploitation of officers and soldiers is relatively light.
Because, 6,000 Qing troops and 10,000 slaves formed a long snake formation and were flanked by 20,000 people. It was cut into countless segments in an instant. Those slaves were driven with whips to work. They would not sacrifice their lives for the Qing soldiers. At this time, one by one either took the opportunity to escape or hid under the grain truck.
There were even many people running around shouting and scattering the Eight Banners and the Mongols.
The three Shang Jian brothers who were walking in front had just rode their horses onto a small mound when the attack happened. Looking back from their perspective, they can see the entire battlefield.
Suddenly, they were so shocked that they almost fell off their horses.
There were actually so many Ming soldiers below, wearing white cloth cloaks and lying in the snow 200 meters away. They didn't notice it.
Their father is Abate (the seventh son of Nurhaci), the deputy leader of the Zhenglan Banner. The party-affiliated leader of the Zhenglan Banner, Sanbeile Manggurtai (the fifth son of Nurhaci and the third of the four major beile), is the leader of the Zhenglan Banner. ), and now Zhenglan Banner has been sent to Haraqin Grassland. Huang Taiji has always been punished.
The brothers finally found an easier job and tried to stand up again and establish their status in the Eight Banners. Just like the fourteenth uncle Dorgon. If you can't rely on me, you can rely on your brothers.
But, damn it, the hemp rope specializes in cutting at the thinnest places.
The Ma family's cavalry is actually waiting for him here.
