boom……
boom……
Lead bullets weighing seven or eight kilograms were ejected from the general's cannon and hit the Jiannu defenders at the mountain pass.
The Jiannu defenders were immediately stunned. They did not expect that Santun camp would march with a general cannon weighing two to three thousand kilograms.
In Jiannu's confusion, Sun Zushou quickly crossed the river with an army of 10,000 and rushed towards the mountain pass without stopping at all.
Mang Gurtai also reacted and knew the consequences of the Ming army crossing the river in large numbers. He divided four thousand men and rushed towards the Ming army under the bombardment of the general's artillery.
The combat power of the two was immediately differentiated. Whether it was speed or military personal ability, the Jiannu cavalry had an absolute advantage.
Only when there is real head-on contact can you feel the terror of the cavalry, not to mention the elite cavalry of Jiannu.
Even if the Ming army all brought shields and several people cooperated to chop off the horse's legs, they would basically lose their combat power instantly if they were hit by the charging cavalry.
Jiannu's cavalry charged, and the Ming army continued to cross the river. Finally, a square spear formation was formed to contain Jiannu's charge, and the battle line was able to move forward.
An hour later, all the five thousand Jiannu cavalry left at the mountain pass were killed, but the Ming army also paid more than twice the price of Jiannu.
Similarly, at this moment, the city walls of Longjing Pass have all collapsed. Without the protection of the city walls, the battle situation is extremely fierce.
The Tengxiang left guard, the Shanhaiguan reinforcements, and the nearly 70,000 troops from the Beijing camp had to form several square formations to block the charge of tens of thousands of Jiannu cavalry with their flesh and blood.
Jiannu also knew that if he didn't rush over, his entire army would be annihilated, so he launched a suicidal attack in the face of a phalanx composed of 70,000 troops.
The impact of the charging horses was so powerful. Every time a horse crashed into the square formation, several Ming soldiers lost their fighting power and were trampled to death by surrounding sergeants.
Sun Chuanting and Sun Zushou led the army towards Longjing Pass. After learning the news of the arrival of Ming army reinforcements and the death of Mang Gurtai, Huang Taiji, who had already been vomiting blood because of the arrival of two groups of reinforcements at Longjing Pass, spat out a few mouthfuls of blood again.
Seeing the battle in front of Longjing Pass, Huang Taiji's energy and energy seemed to be drained instantly.
It took a while to recover, and I wiped the blood from the corner of my mouth, feeling fierce in my heart: "I would rather teach me to betray the world than teach the world to betray me!"
At this moment, he finally made up his mind and completely accepted Fan Wencheng's suggestion.
Then a series of orders were conveyed.
Batulu from the Horqin, Zanaiman, Aohan, Zalut and other tribes, as well as Du Ying, Yue Tuo, Duduo, etc. all left after receiving military orders.
In the empty temporary camp, only his eldest son Hauge was guarding one side.
"Hauge, have you figured out that path?"
"Father Khan, I personally took several personal guards there twice last night. There was no problem!"
After Hauge finished speaking, he looked around again and lowered his voice: "Father, we want to..."
"Don't ask, don't tell, just listen to Ben Khan! I won't give up easily until I have to!"
After saying that, he closed his eyes to rest, leaving Hauge with a complicated face confused in place.
The geographical location of Longjingguan is extremely unique. It is located in the middle of two mountains, with flat open space in front and behind, like a gourd.
Longjing Pass is located between the upper and lower belly of the gourd, guarding the passage in and out of the Ming Dynasty and Mongolia.
At this moment, the tens of thousands of troops at Longjing Pass used their flesh and blood to block the Jiannu cavalry who were desperately trying to break out. Some of the Jiannu cavalry were guarding the entrance at the bottom of the gourd, blocking the armies of Sun Chuanting and Sun Zushou.
As soon as the Ming army came in, Jiannu would charge.
For a time, the Jiannu troops in the direction of Longjing Pass were unable to deal with the defenders of Longjing Pass, while the Ming army leading the Chuanqiao side were unable to deal with the guarding Jiannu cavalry.
The two sides were in a stalemate, and the coaches of both sides seemed to be waiting for darkness.
Huang Taiji waited until dark to prepare to run away, while Yuan Keli waited for dark to launch a general attack by taking advantage of the poor charging ability of the cavalry in the dark.
In the midst of constant testing, charging, and fighting, night fell.
Huang Taiji looked at the generals who came back to rest in turn, and said with a serious face: "Everyone has seen the situation, and it is unlikely that they will escape in large numbers.
As warriors of Dajin, even if the entire army is annihilated, we must kill a large part of the elite of the Ming army to reduce the pressure on our descendants.
Otherwise, if the elite Ming army marches north, our country will be destroyed and our nation will be destroyed.
Soldiers, let's show the Ming army today what it means to shine back and shine brightly before death!
Send the order, attack Longjing Pass with all your strength, wait for the Ming army at the entrance of the valley to come in, Azige, you lead five thousand troops to retreat and attack the Ming army at the entrance, kill as many as you can! "
At this moment, the heads of the various ministries, Baylor and others no longer had any expressions on their faces except murderous intent. They knew that what Huang Taiji said was the best choice at the moment.
"rush!"
"kill!"
"kill!"
The Jiannu generals roared, and then with thunder and thunder, Jiannu began to charge.
On the Ming army's side, Yuan Keli simply made arrangements and started the attack.
With a small number of people, you can still use battle formations, strategies, information gaps, speed, surprise attacks, etc. to gain an advantage. But as the saying goes: if you have ten thousand soldiers, you will have no borders, but if you have a hundred thousand soldiers, you will reach the sky.
With tens of thousands of troops fighting together, no battle formations or strategies are of much use. They can only fight hand to hand to see who can kill whom first.
But some preparations were still made, such as Juma stakes and large trees with branches. Although they could not form a Juma stake array, a large number of Juma stakes placed randomly still played a buffering role.
Tens of thousands of troops were fighting at the entrance of the valley in front of Longjing Pass. The Jiannu cavalry was charging, while the Ming army formed square spear formations to resist desperately.
The sergeants of the two armies rushed toward each other, stepping on the corpses, shouting kills soaring into the sky.
Every charge of the Jiannu cavalry could knock away several Ming soldiers, but there would also be several cavalrymen who were pierced into sieves by their spears.
But in the chaotic fighting battlefield, there are two extremely special teams. One is Qin Liangyu's five thousand white pole soldiers who form a tower-shaped spear battle formation and weave back and forth throughout the battlefield. The Jiannu cavalry avoids the sharp edge.
The other is a battalion of more than 1,7800 warriors led by Cao Bianjiao. They are also interspersed on the battlefield, but they are different from the white pole soldiers.
The white pole soldiers slow down the enemy's edge, while the warrior battalion beheads and selects the troops led by the high-ranking generals who built the slaves to charge.
While tens of thousands of troops were fighting, no one noticed that one sergeant after another left the battlefield, and then rolled into the dark mountain forest.
…
The fighting of tens of thousands of people lasted from noon to night, and then from night to dawn.
From the excitement, panic, and fighting in the eyes of the sergeant at the beginning, to the numbness now, mechanically waving the weapon in his hand and slashing at the enemy.
When the fish belly white turns up in the east, the fighting is over.
There were no Jiannu standing, only some war horses spinning in place, making whining sounds.
It seemed that he was mourning for his master's death in battle, or maybe he was frightened by the fighting of tens of thousands of people.
The ground was soaked with blood, mixed with the soil, and it was no longer clear whether it was mud or flesh.
