The end of the Ming Dynasty swept the world

Chapter 515 This Is Not a Good Thing (Ask for a monthly ticket recommendation ticket)

Aobai's actions were indeed surprising.

The Ming army, including Ding Yi, did not expect that the two armies would immediately attack as soon as they came into sight.

Too soon, this Oboi fights differently from other Manchu nobles, and also differently from Huang Taiji.

As soon as the two sides came into sight, Ding Yi didn't even think about how to set up the formation, and the opponent had already struck first.

No one in the Ming army has encountered such a quick general.

Generally speaking, when the two armies meet, they must first observe the opponent's formation, and then give instructions on how to attack.

Some generals may even retreat, or move left and right, looking for a suitable offensive or defensive position.

But Aobai seems to have prepared it long ago, as soon as the two sides meet, they don't care about anything and start immediately.

The generals quickly looked at Ding Yi.

At this time, Ding Yi's soldiers and horses came all the way. The soldiers were still a little tired and didn't have time to rest.

"Don't panic, swing the car and continue north." Following Ding Yi's order.

The carts of the Dongjiang Army also rolled slowly, changing their formation.

Yuan Youcai's two thousand cavalry left the brigade first.

There are twenty large vehicles in a row in front, each vehicle is five meters apart, not densely packed, forming a defense line of more than 200 meters.

The rest of the cars were divided into two sides, spread out in a word, eighty cars on each side, a full stretch of more than a mile.

The mules and horses continued to pull the cart, walked slowly, and maintained their formation. The infantry dismounted one after another and pulled the horses outside. The Ming army was located in the middle, in case the horses panicked for a while and affected the Ming army's formation. You can drive the horse out of the car formation and rush outside.

At the end came another twenty carts.

In this way, the entire 300 infantrymen of Ding Yi were wrapped in a rectangle with a length of more than one mile and a width of less than [-] meters by two hundred vehicles.

All the carts still headed north, facing the Qing soldiers.

Yuan Youcai led two thousand riders out of the formation, watched the last one lined up behind the chariots, and pulled the horse rope: "Let's go."

Drive, two thousand cavalry did not advance but retreated, passing eastward.

Ding Yi's cavalry has been established since he first arrived in Shuangdao, and it has been more than seven years now. From the initial [-] cavalry to the present, a total of [-] cavalry has been maintained.

Although only Japan and North Korea fought twice in the cavalry, but after so many years of training, they can barely be regarded as elites now.

After so many years of training, the overall quality of Ding Yi's cavalry is not much worse than that of the Mongolian and Qing soldiers, regardless of whether they are riding or shooting.

Even in terms of training time, it far exceeds the Mongols and Qing soldiers.

The only difference between the two sides is that the Mongols may have been trained since childhood, while Ding Yi's soldiers and horses were trained the day after tomorrow.

Yuan Youcai ordered the cavalry to head east in unison, and the east was close to North Korea. Yuan Youcai did not want to escape from the battlefield. A few years ago, he had few cavalry, so he might have to go to other places to avoid it first.

Right now they don't need to flee, but to attract some Qing soldiers.

Sure enough, seeing Yuan Youcai's cavalry heading east in an orderly manner, Oboi first said: "Zakuer, you lead two hundred fine cavalry and two thousand Mongolian cavalry—" After a pause, Oboi found that the Ming army The cavalry lineup was quite strong, so he changed his words again: "Four thousand Mongolian cavalry, fight against the Ming cavalry."

"Hey." Zakuer is the deputy Jiala (equivalent to the deputy leader) of the Xianghuang Banner, also known as the second leader of the leader.

After he heard the words, he immediately ordered two hundred Qing soldiers in vests, plus four thousand Mongolian cavalry, walked around from the back, and headed east.

The two cavalry on both sides seemed to have a tacit understanding, and slowly left the main battlefield and headed east together.

Obai had 1000 cavalry, of which [-] were Qing soldiers. Of the Wu Niu Lu Qing soldiers, there were probably less than [-] real vests, and [-] were taken away by Zakuer, and the rest were more than [-] Both infantry and follower archers are just riding horses.

He divided another 9000 Mongolian cavalry, and he still had more than [-] Mongolian cavalry, which was still more than the Ming army on the opposite side.

Since the old slaves in the Qing Dynasty, every time they fought against the Ming army, they fought more with less, and won many battles. Only when they met Ding Yi did they lose.

Aobai really wants to break the record today, if he can defeat Ding Yi with the same force, his name will definitely be famous in the Qing Dynasty.

"Command, attack." Obai waited for Zakuer's cavalry to come out, and immediately ordered the attack.

Before he came, he had already said how to fight.

With the sound of long horns, the [-] cavalry who had just rushed to the two wings of the Ming army had already begun to slow down.

Ding Yi and all the generals were in the formation, slowly moving forward with the convoy.

Some of the artillery is in the car, and some have just been towed behind the car, but no one is using artillery at the moment.

Because it was too late.

The cavalry of the Qing army came very quickly, and their convoy had to keep moving forward.

Ding Yi didn't expect Oboi to come so quickly and take the initiative, because most of the Qing generals have already been scared by Ding Yi.

So he has no time to adjust the artillery now, and he doesn't want to use it.

He took a look through the binoculars and pointed to the northwest direction: "The terrain over there is higher, away from the coast, move there."

"No." Immediately, an orderly came to the front and issued a loud order.

At this time, the sound of horseshoes roared in the distance, and a thousand Mongolian riders on each side were already approaching.

They brandished machetes and shouted loudly, trying to show their strength.

Most of the Mongols at the scene today are from the Chahar tribe, and Ding Yi's soldiers and horses have not fought against each other. In their eyes, the Ming army is a waste that is not even as good as their Mongolian cavalry.

So they rushed very arrogantly.

But fortunately, the general who led the army still remembered Obai's orders.

But when the cavalry rushed into the two hundred, hey, a thousand cavalry on the left and right did not approach, followed Ding Yi's carriage formation, and continued to move forward, and the two sides formed a parallel route.

This is equivalent to Ding Yi's chariot formation going north, and the Mongolian cavalry going south.

The two sides are parallel, but in different directions.

The Mongolian cavalry remained within [-] steps of Ding Yi's chariot formation.

"Shoot" an order from Mongolia.

Whoosh, arrows rained down from the left and right.

The Ming army raised their shields one after another, and those who were close to the cart squatted behind the cart.

Ding Yi and other generals stood in the middle of the formation, not in the opponent's range, and did not need to raise their shields.

After two bursts of random shooting, the Ming army had little effect in the formation, a few people were hit by arrows, and the team was still moving forward.

But Ding Yi still did not order to fight back.

The generals are not in a hurry, just calm down.

The Mongols became even more arrogant, because Ding Yi's convoy was more than a mile long, and they kept running forward, and they were getting closer and closer to the Ming army.

Shoot, shoot, shoot.

A continuous rain of arrows shot in the middle.

The Ming army still raised their shields.

Seventy steps.

Sixty steps.

Fifty steps.

The Mongolian cavalry ran and shot, and when they passed Ding Yi's formation, they were less than fifty steps away, and they became more and more courageous.

The expression of Oboi in the distance changed slightly: "Hurry up, send an order, let them not get too close to the Ming army."

But at this time, it was too late to send the order, and the distance between the two sides was too far.

Two thousand Mongolian riders ran to the back of Ding Yi's army, switched from left to right, and a thousand riders from the right came to the left.

At this time, their Xiang Fang and Ding Yi's soldiers and horses came in the same direction, and they also kept parallel with Ding Yi's soldiers and horses, running and shooting at the same time.

Many Mongols feel that the Ming army is like a fool, and they don't know how to fight back, so they can only be beaten passively.

Obai's order to them was to maintain a distance of [-] to [-] paces and to suppress the space of the Ming army's formation, try to compress the Ming army's large formation as small as possible, so that there is no space between the Ming army.

They started shooting from [-] paces, and they shot all the way to [-] paces. The Ming army still hadn't responded, and some people had already approached [-] paces.

Just after the two sides switched left and right, they kept shooting along a line parallel to the Ming army.

Suddenly, an order was issued in the Ming army formation.

"preparation."

Crash, the entire formation that was marching stopped at the same time.

The gunmen raised their guns one after another, facing the outside.

"Sho-she-she" the Mongols were still clamoring, and they were getting closer.

Bang bang bang, suddenly there was a continuous explosion like firecrackers in the air.

"Plop plop" the Mongolian cavalry on both wings fell down in rows.

Because the Ming army did not respond in front and did not shoot guns, this made the Mongolian cavalry more and more crazy, and the distance was very close.

Right now, it suddenly broke out, and the effect was surprisingly good. The Mongolian cavalrymen fell off their horses one after another.

Many Mongolian cavalry found that something was wrong, and it was too late to speed up and leave.

The Ming army's chariot was more than a mile long, and the Mongolian cavalry ran forward desperately. The road was full of Ming army gunmen.

Bang, bang, bang, it just kept going.

Those who are smart, turn their heads and run back, or run east or west, and stay away from the Ming army in the fastest time.

After a burst of bludgeoning, the scene was filled with smoke, screams and wailing everywhere, Mongolian left and right each had a thousand riders, and more than 200 people were beaten off by the Ming army in this round.

Obai's face in the distance turned green.

After the two Mongolian cavalry fled back, Oboi yelled, "I told you to keep shooting at about seventy paces?"
Mingren's guns are ineffective at this distance, and five guns may not be able to hit one person. Who told you to rush up?
The two generals bowed their heads and did not dare to make a sound, Oboi scolded for a while, but he didn't want to kill them, he will continue to beat them.

Back then when the Mongols went on an expedition to Europe and Asia, when encountering an army that was difficult to fight, they kept shooting arrows at the furthest distance, harassing them, and when the enemy chased them, they retreated, shooting while retreating, and chasing after the enemy returned, shooting while chasing, using the most The long-distance grazing fire dragged down the armies of various countries.

Right now, Oboi also wants to use this method to slowly consume Ding Yi's troops.

How far can your infantry go with a cart?How long can you go?
I use cavalry to consume you slowly.

But they lost in the first battle. The Mongols were greedy for merit, rushed too close, and were knocked down a lot.

"What now?" Fuhato asked now.

Aobai thought about it calmly: "Soru, please take another two thousand cavalry out, and chase the Ming cavalry with Zakuer."

Suolu is the capital of the Eight Banners of Mongolia, and is above Oboi, so Oboi also came to invite him.

Solu didn't hesitate, and immediately ordered [-] horses and distributed them, so that they would have [-] horses to fight Mingren's [-] horses.

"Send another two thousand riders, one thousand on the left and one thousand on the left, to shoot." Oboi continued.

Soon, two thousand Mongolian riders attacked from left and right.

This time they learned how to behave, and always kept between seventy and eighty steps, hovering at the farthest point of their range.

Someone with a strong bow, who can shoot farther, keeps a longer distance.

The Ming army also knew that they could not fool them, and shot at the same time.

Arrows from both sides came and went, shooting at each other non-stop.

The Mongolian soldiers passed by the Ming army formation in groups, and every once in a while, there would be a crash, countless bowstrings sounded, and dense arrow rain came towards the Ming army formation.

The back row of the Ming army is far away, and few arrows hit it, but the front row is very dangerous.

Those without shields raised their shields, those without shields squatted under the carriage, and some gunmen in iron armor were not afraid, standing and shooting at them.

At this time, both sides are around the maximum effective range of the opponent, and the damage is not strong.

Some arrows hit the Ming army, and it was difficult to break the armor.

But the continuous rain of arrows can always accidentally shoot at vital points such as the face and eyes. From time to time, some people in the Ming army screamed and fell to the ground.

From time to time, the Mongolians on the opposite side got off their horses and fell down.

There were shouts, cursing, bowstrings, gunshots, screams and wailing all over the scene.

Every moment, a life disappears on the scene.

After the two thousand Mongol cavalry plundered to the back of the Ming army, almost each of them shot more than five arrows. Then the left and right sides switched positions, and then repeated plundering. The Mongolian riding skills were fully displayed.

Ding Yi immediately realized that the casualties on both sides were about the same after a burst of shooting, which was not a good thing.
