The end of the Ming Dynasty swept the world

Chapter 583 Grab Time

Because Yuan Youcai's current location was a little far away from the place where Ding Yi was ambushing, Yuan Youcai was running with all his strength. They had been raising war horses in Jeju these years, and they used fine grains and fresh grass there, and the quality of the war horses was better than that of Mengqing.

Everyone ran with all their strength, and in the eyes of the Qing soldiers, it was no different from running for their lives, so they naturally chased them even tighter.

The two sides chased and fled, and ran for more than ten miles in one breath.

When Yuan Youcai's department first saw Yuetuo's department, the distance between the two sides was about 300 meters, but now it was pulled to 400 meters.

Yuan Youcai ran so desperately, it was more realistic.

Yue Tuo saw that it was not good, he would be run away if he continued running like this.

And it was getting darker.

"Throw things, hurry up, speed up." Yue Tuo signaled his subordinates to throw things.

When their cavalry came out to fight, they would bring water, food, some even brought a small amount of wine, and some with shields.

At this time, in order to relieve the weight, the Qing soldiers began to throw things one after another. Yang Guli wanted to take off his armor, but thinking about it, it was useless for him to run fast alone, so he still didn't take it off.

But at this moment, Yuan Youcai also knew that he was running too fast, and it would be ridiculous if the Qing soldiers couldn't catch up, so he quickly ordered to slow down.

The two sides were pulled closer to 300 meters again.

And Yue Tuo has already seen the effect of throwing heavy weights.

250 m.

200 m.

Seeing that it was getting closer, the Qing soldiers became more arrogant, yelling frantically behind, and Yue Tuo also showed ecstasy on his face.

A smug smile appeared on Yuan Youcai's face, because at this moment he had already seen a coppice in front of him.

Master Ding really knows how to fight wars and choose places.

Yuan Youcai had no choice but to accept it.

This coppice is not high, it is full of low trees, and the distance is a bit large, no matter how you look at it, it does not look like a place where soldiers and horses can be ambushed. Naturally, I am not afraid.

The key is that it is getting dark now, and the sight is even worse.

He quickly led his soldiers and horses through the undergrowth, and when he looked up, he couldn't find any difference in it.

His cavalry rushed forward as if fleeing for their lives.

The Yuetuo department in the back rushed in without any hesitation.

This coppice is too obvious to hide soldiers and horses.

Not long after they stormed in.

On the ground of the coppice, there was a clatter, and a human head stuck out, and then Ming soldiers got up from the ground one by one.

They slapped each other off the leaves and branches that covered each other.

Then he picked up his weapons, walked out of the woods, and organized his formation.

150 m.

Yue Tuo followed Yuan Youcai's soldiers and horses with three thousand elite cavalry and rushed in. After less than a mile of chasing, he suddenly saw someone standing up in front of him.

Then, clatter clatter, a large number of soldiers and horses stood up.

At this moment, the sky was getting dark, and there were people lying on the ground in front of them. They only cared about chasing the cavalry, and their sight was blocked by the cavalry, so they didn't notice it.

A large number of Ming troops stood up from the ground.

Before they came, all the Ming soldiers were lying on the ground.

"Not good, there is an ambush, stop." Yue Tuo hurriedly called to stop.

"Back, back, left wing." Someone screamed again.

Wow, wow, wow, groups of Ming soldiers also came out from the woods on the left wing.

After the Ming army came out, they immediately set up a bureau to block the intersection where they rushed in, blah blah, shields blocked the road, and someone directly took the engineer shovel and nailed down the iron rod.

"Right Wing" was screamed again.

Someone from the right wing of the Ming army also stepped forward from behind. This Ming army was not lying on the ground, and the distance was relatively far away. At this time, they stepped forward and quickly deployed to their right wing.

"Let's go." Yue Tuo almost didn't hesitate, and immediately ordered to turn around and run.

He already knew who the Ming army in front of him was. Except for the shameless Ding Yi, no Ming army would do such a thing.

He saw that the other party was ambushing them. There were five or six thousand infantry directly in front of them. There was a forest on the left flank and soldiers on the right flank.

They were besieged in front, left and right, so Yue Tuo turned around and ran immediately.

"Don't hit it?" Yang Guli was a little bit dissatisfied.

He followed the old slave across Liaodong and was invincible, and he had never fought against Ding Yi before.

Neither the Battle of Jinzhou nor the Battle of Beigou participated.

"Can't fight, Ding Yi's infantry is powerful, and this is the battlefield he chose, let's go." Yue Tuo quickly ordered to turn around.

But the 180-degree U-turn of Sanqian Jingqi cannot be completed in an instant.

A large group of them turned around one after another, the rear team changed to the front team, and the front team changed to the rear team. This is the fastest way to turn around.

But I saw the left-wing Ming army, (at this time, after they turned around, they became the right-wing Ming army.) running quickly to the front intersection.

Just now all the Ming soldiers hid in the middle of the woods to prevent being discovered. They will run desperately to the front intersection, and then put their shields on the ground one after another, and then nail them up.

When their front team started to run towards the intersection at a high speed, there were already hundreds of people from the Ming army blocking there.

The passage for horse racing here is a bit wide. He Xiaoche’s soldiers and horses erected shields every meter, and each row of nearly [-] shields stood there, blocking the passage for horse racing. There are still some fields and fields on both sides. It is also erecting shields that are conducive to the rapid passage of cavalry.

Three rows of large shields were erected, and behind them were three rows of pikemen, all spears pointing forward, placed on the shields.

From a distance, it looks like a dense hedgehog.

More Ming troops either lined up behind or chased their cavalry along the woods.

In the current situation, it is impossible for their cavalry to rush into the woods and rush out of the passage faster than they can.

In fact, when the Ming army reached the second row of shields, the cavalry in their front team had already rushed to 150 meters.

"Get ready." He Xiaoche's subordinate generals shouted one after another.

"Squat down in the front row."

There were two rows of pikemen squatting in front of them.

At this time, only two platoons of pikemen arrived first, and the first platoon was still erecting their shields. The Qing soldiers still had a chance to rush out if they wanted to charge fast.

Later Ming troops ran here one after another.

The cavalry is faster, already within 150 meters.

"Rush, rush out, they have few musketeers, rush out." Yue Tuo and Yang Guli shouted from the rear.

But the two were originally in the front team, but now they have changed to the back team. Their shouts cannot be heard from the front.

But no matter whether you can hear it from the front, the Qing soldiers are now rushing forward.

Yuetuo and Yangguli who were behind both encouraged them, rush, rush, and must break this Ming army.

Both Yue Tuo and Yang Guli knew that there was only one chance, so they worked hard.

Once you can't rush through, the Ming army will come running over, and a steady stream of soldiers and horses will block this passage tightly.

At that time, I will rush to the other three roads, let alone have a chance.

150 m.

140 m.

one hundred. . .

Amid the roars of Yuetuo and Yangguli, their soldiers and horses had just entered the Ming army about 140 meters away.

Sudden.

Bang, bang, bang, the guns of the Ming army on the opposite side fired.

Yue Tuo and Yang Guli couldn't believe it.

This distance is greater than any distance before.

During the Battle of Beigou, their blunderbuss had shot against Ding Yi's blunderbuss, and they were indeed not as far away as Ding Yi's blunderbuss.

But at that time, the difference between the Lumi guns used by Ding Yi and the bird guns they used was less than 30 meters, and the shooting distance of Ding Yi's gun soldiers was also about 100 meters.

But this time it was 30 meters ahead of time, and the continuous sound of gunfire started.

The most suitable and accurate distance for flintlocks is naturally within 100 meters, or even within 80 meters.

But such a dense cavalry charge really gave the flintlock a good chance to fire.

The Ming soldiers are all experienced veterans. It is correct to lower the muzzle a little and hit the horse's neck.

Even if the bullets bounced a little higher, they could still hit the cavalry's head, and if they couldn't hit the cavalry, they could still hit the horse. This is their experience since they fought against the Qing cavalry.

Bang, bang, bang, in a puff of smoke, a dense metal storm swept away.

"Huh"

"Plop plop" a large number of horses and cavalry were knocked down, and a wave of cavalry fell in the front row as if blown by the wind.

Some horses were hit directly, and some were hit directly by musket bullets.

Generally speaking, it is better to be hit by a gun bullet. When a war horse is hit, some people can fly more than ten meters and fall to the ground heavily.

At this time, Ding Yi's large group of soldiers and horses hadn't all chased over to block them, only a row of gunfire arrived in a hurry.

As soon as this wave of gunmen hit, the Qing soldiers stagnated as a whole.

Many dead, wounded or ownerless horses on the battlefield stopped on the road, blocking the follower's road.

Some people showed panic on their faces, some people wanted to turn the horse's head, and some people bumped into the ownerless horse in front. The scene was extremely chaotic, and there were horses and people's screams everywhere.

Yue Tuo at the back knew he couldn't wait.

"Rush quickly, rush quickly, the Ming army has few guns and few people, rush quickly."

His cry was forwarded by many people, and the Qing soldiers rushed up again, and now both sides are fighting for time.

The Ming army in the back team ran over from a distance to block them. They wanted to rush out as soon as possible, and rushed out while the Ming army was few.
