However, when they saw it, both the Han Eight Banners and the North Korean officers and soldiers were all dumbfounded. They were really dumbfounded!
Who would have thought that behind them, in the direction of Seoul, what came over was not the Qing cavalry, but cavalry in dazzling red!
This color will never be forgotten by either the Han people or the Korean officers and soldiers!
Only the Ming army is red!
Moreover, this Ming Dynasty cavalry was not just a small force, it was just the vanguard. There were at least a thousand of them, and I don’t know how many more were behind them. They rolled up dust all over the sky and came towards them.
With a "clang" sound, a weapon in the hand of a North Korean officer was heard falling to the ground.
As a result, a chain reaction was triggered. Many of the surrounding imperial officers and soldiers could not hold their weapons and dropped them to the ground.
For a long time, the Ming army has been regarded as soldiers from heaven in the hearts of Korean people.
After surrendering to the Ming Dynasty for more than two hundred years, when North Korea was swept by Japanese pirates, the Ming Dynasty sent troops to regain their hometown for them. With all this, the awe of the Great Tomorrow Soldiers has long been engraved in their bones.
Not to mention, at this moment, the Ming army was like heavenly soldiers and generals, suddenly descending in front of them.
With the rumble of hoofbeats, the Ming cavalry was getting closer and closer, stopping just a stone's throw away from the Korean army.
The horses snorted, and the soldiers of the Ming army stared at the prey in front of them. The following troops continued to arrive, and more and more troops were displayed in front of the enemy.
On their bodies, not only the military uniforms were red, but even the war horses were vaguely red and stained with blood. But looking at them, they couldn't see any injuries. Then there is only one reason left, that is, the blood stains belong to someone else.
Needless to say, this other person cannot be those rebels or a North Korean civilian!
Looking at the Ming Dynasty cavalry gathering more and more, looking at everything in front of them. Although the Ming Dynasty cavalry did not attack, the pressure brought by it was a bit unbearable for the North Korean officers and soldiers in front of them.
Suddenly, some North Korean officers and soldiers shouted, threw away their weapons, and ran to both sides.
The actions of a few people immediately triggered a chain reaction. The approximately five thousand North Korean officers and soldiers immediately collapsed like a piece of loose sand and fled to both sides, as far as they could.
The officers and soldiers of the Ming Dynasty cavalry did not chase after him. They just looked at this scene with cold eyes and let the horses rest for a while. In other words, these North Korean officers and soldiers are simply not worth their efforts.
Jin Lian, who commanded five thousand North Korean officers and soldiers, was also dumbfounded. But as soon as the Ming Dynasty cavalry arrived, he became a bare general!
In fact, that's not right. At least his servants, a total of about fifty people, still surrounded him and did not escape.
But looking at their appearance, they were trembling with fear and had no fighting spirit at all.
To be honest, Jin Lian was a little dumbfounded and didn’t know what to do!
He actually wanted to run, but he was too eye-catching. If he escapes, maybe the Ming army will pursue him! And even if he escaped, there would be no way for the Qing Dynasty to explain.
Thinking of this, he came back to his senses and quickly turned his head to look at the Qing army.
With just one look, Jin Lian discovered that the faces of those Qing troops were all very ugly, especially those of their parents.
He immediately drove his horse to Bao Chengxian, ignoring Bao Chengxian who had the same look on his face, and just asked in panic: "Sir, what should we do now?"
In front were a thousand Ming cavalry, about two thousand infantry, and about five thousand rebels;
Behind them, at least four to five thousand Ming cavalry troops came.
And they themselves now only have three thousand Qing infantry left. There is such a disparity in military strength, and the opponent has more cavalry than them. In this battle, even if Sun Wu is reincarnated, he will not be able to fight, right?
As if being asked by Jin Lian, Bao Cheng came to his senses first and immediately felt heartache.
He knew in his heart that this problem would occur when he was under too much pressure.
But now, for him, Bao Chengxian also knew very well that he had no escape route. Even if he surrendered, the Ming court would not let him go.
If a dog is in a hurry, he will jump over the wall!
Then Bao Chengxian's expression turned ferocious, he drew the knife in his hand and shouted loudly: "The Qing army is invincible in the world!"
His personal guards, actually his servants, heard this and shouted hysterically: "The Qing army is invincible in the world!"
Perhaps inspired by their shouts, or recalling the past achievements against the Ming Dynasty, many people among the three thousand Han troops and eight banners shouted: "The Qing army is invincible in the world!"
These people here in Seoul obviously don't know that the battle of Ningyuan not long ago, the myth that Jianlu was invincible in the world, has long been shattered! Thirty thousand Jianqiu were wiped out, and Gushan Ezhen, who was wearing a white flag, was captured alive and taken to the capital to be executed.
The era of Jianlu's invincibility has long passed!
At this time, the ignorant seer Bao Cheng had already boosted some of his morale, and immediately shouted: "Your Excellency, leading the cavalry, will arrive soon. The people over in Seoul must also be aware of what's going on here, as long as we persist , reinforcements will surely arrive, and the Ming army will be defeated!"
Hearing this, these fake Tatars remembered that Ying Erdai led a thousand cavalry troops to take a detour to cut off the rebels' retreat. At this time, they must be there soon.
Suddenly, their morale was boosted.
Those were the Eight Banners of Manchuria and the Eight Banners of Mongolia, both of which were the elite of the Qing army.
In the past, when the Qing army fought in the field, every time they beat the Ming army to pieces!
Although the Ming army in front of us does have more troops, but with the real elites of the Qing Dynasty here, what if the Ming army has more troops?
Reinforcements will definitely be sent from Seoul. By then, these Ming troops will be defeated!
Thinking of this, none of these fake Tatars surrendered, and they were all ready to resist!
Seeing all this, Jin Lian couldn't help but admire him very much.
The Qing army is the Qing army. It was able to withstand such a large Ming army!
Of course, he also heard Bao Chengxian's shouting, and also knew that Ying Erdai's troops were taking a detour, so he also had hope. As long as he persisted until Ying Erdai arrived, he believed that the Ming army would definitely be repulsed!
………………
The cavalry of the Ming Dynasty have arrived one after another. Two large flags, one with the word "Li" and the other with the word "Gao" embroidered on it, are fluttering in the wind and making a hunting sound.
The officers and soldiers of the Ming army under the banner still did not attack, but just stared at Jianlu. Like a fierce tiger, it will stop moving and kill its prey as soon as it moves.
On the other side, the Korean rebel soldiers who surrounded the Ming army seemed to no longer feel the cold. They all roared "ouch" and were extremely excited.
Li Laiheng in front of the formation did not issue an attack order. He just stared at the prey in front of him and waited patiently.
The invisible pressure made all the fake Tatars in the middle worry again.
They have all fought in the war, so how could they not have any eyesight to clearly see the situation in front of them.
However, at this time, they all held on to a little hope that as long as they dragged on, Ying Erdai would arrive with reinforcements. This is the only way they think.
Suddenly, the Korean rebel soldiers who had been noisy all stopped shouting and looked at everything in front of them in surprise.
Bao Chengxian noticed something was wrong, and quickly turned his head to look this way.
I saw another group of Ming Army soldiers marching from the rear to the front. What was different from ordinary Ming Army soldiers was that they held the spears in their hands high, and on the top of the spears, there were heads hanging one by one. .
There is no need to look carefully, just by looking at the obvious symbol of the money rat tail, you will know who those heads belong to!
The spears are like a forest, and the heads are like mountains. There are at least seven or eight hundred of them.
Upon seeing this, Bao Chengxian immediately understood that except for the cavalry led by Ying Erdai, those coming from that direction could not be other Qing troops.
Suddenly, his face turned very pale, he suddenly yelled and fell backwards.
Many of the Jianlu soldiers in the circular formation saw their heads. At first sight, their last hopes were dashed.
They always thought that the elite troops of the Qing Dynasty came to reinforce them with their heads. The last bit of spiritual support in their hearts suddenly collapsed!
What kind of Qing army is invincible? So many heads slapped directly in the face!
Seeing that the confidence and morale of the Jianlu infantry had collapsed, Li Laiheng no longer hesitated, and immediately pointed his spear forward and shouted: "Kill!"
Shuai Qi leaned forward, signaling an attack.
Suddenly, the Ming Dynasty's cavalry began to pace and speed up, and the thunderous sound of horse hooves sounded again.
The infantry soldiers also began to advance forward, shouting at the same time: "Kill!"
The Korean rebel soldiers at the back never thought that one day they would attack Jianlu with great excitement: "Kill!"
The pale gold chain left Bao Chengxian, who didn't know whether he was alive or dead, regardless of whether his servants could keep up with him or whether he could escape. He desperately slapped his horse and fled to one side.
Under his leadership, Jianlu's circular formation collapsed before the Ming army could attack. Even if they knew that running away would only lead to faster death, they still ran away in both directions.
The soldiers of the Ming Dynasty cavalry roared in pursuit. A mere three thousand Jianlu infantry were drowned in the sea of Ming cavalry.
In just half an hour, the war in Jinjiazhuang was over.
Li Lai came to Li Laiheng and said to him with a little regret: "I couldn't catch up, and Ying Erdai fled into Seoul."
When Li Laiheng heard this, he just smiled and said, "It's okay, let's calculate the interest first!"
After he finished speaking, he looked down at Bao Chengxian and Jin Lian, who were being held in front of him by several Ming army soldiers, and immediately sneered and said, "Come on, take them to the gates of Seoul!"
"Kill!"
Amid the shouts of killing all over the mountains and plains, the Ming army came to Seoul!
Here, the Ming army once came. However, in the past, they came to save Seoul; but this time, they came to destroy Seoul!
