"Avoid it, avoid it, Dequan, really hide it..."
Not all the people lying on the ground are dead or about to die. There are also experts like Zhang Zhongqi who "know how to dodge bullets". The moment he heard the gunshot, he immediately pushed down Dequan who was blocking him and lay down together. . This action is so fast!
Because he "did" quickly, Mr. Zhang was unscathed, not even a hair was hurt. Even though his ears were buzzing from the shock, he still didn't forget to brag to his "little brother" Dequan. But Dequan ignored him and was still trembling and twitching. Zhang Zhongqi, who was very experienced in the battlefield, immediately realized that something was wrong. He quickly got off De's body, and then used force to turn the boy who was lying face down. Sure enough, Dequan was not good at "dodging bullets" and he hid too slowly. At this moment, a big hole appeared on the cloth armor on the chest, and red blood was still flowing. There was a roaring sound in the throat, blood was spurting out from the mouth, and the eyes were full of fear and pleading. It seemed that he wanted to ask Zhang Zhongqi to rescue him again.
Zhang Zhongqi also knew that Dequan was hopeless...but the old man was still very good at comforting people. He held Dequan in his arms and whispered to him: "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, the injury is not serious. It's just a scratch on the skin, just close your eyes and rest for a while..."
"boom......"
There was another deafening loud noise!
This is the second volley of musketry from the Ming army! The previous volleys had stunned the Qing army. Almost all the musketeers standing in the first two rows fell down, but most of the musketeers in the third row were still standing there stupidly. So Hong Xiguan decided to send them on their way with another salvo!
After two rounds of salvos, the entire Gushan Mountain in the middle of the Qing Army's Zhenglan Banner New Army collapsed! It's not that their left wing collapsed... their left wing basically no longer exists. Although there are still many survivors who fell to the ground and pretended to be dead like Zhang Zhongqi, they have not organized again to fight with the Ming army and line up to be shot. courage.
The direct cause of the collapse of the Qing Army's Zhenglan Banner New Army's Gushan line in the middle was that Yue Le's precious son couldn't hold his forehead any longer!
He had already discovered that his left wing was going to do something bad—how could he not do something bad when he encountered invulnerable heavenly soldiers?
But after all, he was not someone who stood on the front line and was shot at, so he could barely sit on a tall horse and watch. . But when the Ming army under Hong Xiguan fired the first salvo, the thunderous gunshots startled the horse under his crotch. And Prince An's elder brother's horse riding skills were really poor. The horse under his crotch was knocked down when it made a fuss.
Several Goshiha who were guarding him quickly helped him onto the horse. As soon as he got on the horse, there was another burst of gunfire from the other side!
This time, he did not roll off the horse again, but turned the horse's head and ran towards his Ama Yuele. While running back and forth, he shouted on the horse: "Ama, Ama, there are really soldiers from heaven, run quickly!"
Not to mention, he was quite filial and did not forget his prince father at the critical moment.
But as soon as he ran away, the officers and soldiers of the Zhonglu Gushan of the Qing Zhenglan Banner New Army, who were already panicking, collapsed.
First, the palace guards and Goshiha who were protecting Seleng's forehead ran away, then the cavalry soldiers who had been serving as the scout vanguard and suffered a disaster saw their master running away and quickly followed them, and then came the artillery soldiers who were setting up their positions. Don't do it anymore - before they could set up, the left wing collapsed first. Seeing that the Ming Dynasty's invulnerable true heavenly soldiers were coming to shoot them, the cavalry that was supposed to protect them escaped again, how could they get a haircut? Run for your life!
Those who were hiding behind had fled. How could the musketeers and pikemen of the Eight Banners New Army who were in front and were shot to death be able to withstand it?
Moreover, the Ming troops who lined up to kill them were also elite old Guangdong soldiers, and their platoon was also "invulnerable"! Although they did not use close-range shooting tactics, their marksmanship was not bad and they could reload quickly. They had the upper hand in the exchange of shots. After ten or eight rounds of fighting, the Qing army was in chaos in front of the formation, with dead bodies and dying people everywhere. Not only were the musketeers in front unable to bear it any longer, but even the musketeers behind were frightened. His face turned pale. Now Seleng'e, the cavalry, and the artillerymen who were supervising the battle behind him have all run away. If they don't run away, are they still waiting to die?
Just when the Qing army's Zhenglan Banner New Army began to flee across Gushan in the middle road, the drum sound of "dong dong dong" also sounded at the same time.
"Come on!" Hong Xiguan, who had just commanded the troops to defeat the left wing of the Qing army with close-range shooting tactics, had already moved the pikemen under his hands to the front row. Now that he heard the sound of the drum, he did not hesitate and put his hands flat. With his spear, he personally led the team to launch the assault!
"Kill..." Thousands of people shouted, and then surged forward together. However, it was not a bayonet attack, but a spear opening the way, and the bayonet followed up. The main reason for adopting such a tactic was that Because I want to find some opportunities for the spearmen to make meritorious deeds. Because the Ming army's cavalry was too weak, they couldn't eliminate the pikemen, but if the enemy's cavalry didn't come, they had nothing to do.
So facing the defeated Qing army, the Ming army commanders in three directions released their elite troops holding spears. They were seen standing in a row holding spears that were one foot and three feet long. They didn't pay much attention to the formation. They just shouted and ran forward, as if they wanted to plunge their spears directly into the rear of the Qing army in front. back......
The Gushan of the Zhenglan Banner New Army has completely collapsed, and the tide of people is rushing towards the other Gushan Qing soldiers who are spreading out and exchanging fire with the approaching Ming army - Yue Le's army is bumping into each other head-on. Entered the pocket formation of the Ming army. Because Zhenglan Banner's Zhongjun Gushan was at the front and had a wide front, he was the first to be attacked by a group of Ming troops. However, with the help of "Heavenly Soldiers", Yu Xiaoqian and Qiu Hu, who could completely control the formation of the Qing army, would not just hit the Qing army on the head and let their bodies go, so the Ming army in the four towns also divided their forces. Two lines pressed up from the left and right sides of Yue Le's army.
However, before Zhenglan Banner's new army was defeated at Gushan in the middle, Yue Le could still withstand the Ming army's offensive. After all, he still had more than a hundred troops in his hands. Although he did not have time to expand into a horizontal formation, You can still use columns to meet the enemy.
Of course, Yue Le did not forget to send reinforcements to his Zhenglan Banner New Army Zhonglu Gushan. He transferred ten staff leaders and asked them to bring cannons to support. But to his surprise, Gushan, which he led personally, was defeated in a very short period of time. The fleeing soldiers even overwhelmed several leading columns that went to support them. The few remaining leading columns that had not yet collapsed had no choice but to deploy hollow square formations on the spot to avoid being swallowed up by the Ming army coming in like a tide.
Yue Le can be regarded as a veteran general. He has been fighting for half his life. He also commanded the troops to attack Dengzhou and captured the outer city of Dengzhou - this was one of the few victories of the Qing Dynasty against the new Ming Dynasty!
But the situation he encountered in the Battle of Wulin this time was far beyond his expectation... He had so many cavalry to cover the army, and they were on a flat plain. How could he be caught in the attack? Where is the military ambush?
This is completely unreasonable!
Just when Yue Le was in disbelief, his filial son, Se Leng'e, suddenly burst into Yue Le's Chinese army tent, crying. Before Yue Le could react, he grabbed my arm and pulled him out, pulling him back. He shouted: "Amma, the Qing Dynasty is over, the rebels really have heavenly soldiers, let's run away!"
Yue Le was old, and he was dragged out of the tent by his young and strong stupid son. He didn't react until he got outside, and slapped the filial son on the face with a flick of his hand, "What nonsense are you talking about? How can the rebels have any heavenly soldiers? Only the Qing Dynasty has heavenly soldiers!"
After being beaten, Seleng's face looked aggrieved. He covered his face with one hand and pointed at the sky with one hand: "Ama, see for yourself! See for yourself! If that's not a heavenly soldier, what is it?"
Before Yue Le understood what was going on, Geshiha beside him was already shouting.
"My lord, there is a ball in the sky!"
"My lord...there is a traitor in the sky!"
"My lord, the traitor has gone to heaven!"
What is all this mess?
Yue Le was yelled at by the people below, so he raised his head and looked up in the sky. As soon as he looked around, he saw the four hot air balloons. He was also confused now. How could such a big ball go up to the sky? Are all those balls belonging to the Ming Army? How did they get up there?
When I was confused, someone suddenly shouted in my ear: "Your Majesty, it's not good, the traitors are outflanking us..."
