The end of the Ming Dynasty swept the world

Chapter 696 Xu's Soldiers Are Really Strong

Cao Bianjiao immediately asked his subordinates to separate their horses. Xu Fuzuo had more than 6000 soldiers and [-] horses. This time he got [-] horses, which was about [-]. Shield soldiers, two ride a horse.

Of Cao Bianjiao's 3000 men, 2000 rode [-] horses.

Everyone in the army got on their horses.

Xu Fuzuo looked at the direction of the artillery: "Go, go west."

The whole army abandoned their carts, rumbled, and rushed westward.

"The Ming army is about to run away, go up and down." Tan Tai hurriedly ordered all the soldiers to catch up before Huang Taiji arrived.

Qing soldiers immediately surrounded from all directions.

At least 3 Qing soldiers surrounded them at the scene, and more Qing soldiers came over one after another.

Xu Fuzuo's soldiers and horses ran forward for less than 300 meters, and the forwards of the Qing soldiers had already rushed within [-] meters of them.

"Get off the horse." Xu suddenly called out.

Hey, the Ming army slowed down one after another, and then gave orders.

The four thousand musketeers were divided into four directions, one thousand in each direction, and divided into three groups.

"Hit." Bang bang bang bang.

When the Qing soldiers saw them slow down, some of them also slowed down, and some still rushed forward.

Then the gunmen rang out four times, and people turned on their backs.

The forwards of the Qing soldiers were shocked, probably because they were scared by Ding Yi's soldiers, and retreated one after another. They didn't dare to charge without orders.

After the beating, Xu Fuzuo immediately ordered: "Get on the horse, charge."

"Cao Zongbing, let your soldiers and horses charge forward."

At this time, the Qing soldiers in front were beaten head-on with heavy casualties and were in chaos.

Of course Cao Bianjiao knew that this was a good opportunity, and immediately waved his hand, leading a thousand servants who were riding alone, and rushed to the west with a roar.

The other Ming troops followed closely behind, and the Qing soldiers screamed, fighting and retreating.

The Ming army first fired a wave of guns, and then let Cao Bianjiao's cavalry charge for a while, and rushed out for more than a mile in an instant.

This directly opened the distance of the artillery behind.

Azige was half-dead in anger, and desperately ordered the Ming army to descend and move the artillery forward, but at such a speed, it was almost impossible to push the cannon to catch up with the Ming army.

Now there is only one way to trap the Ming army, and that is to charge up and prevent the Ming army from moving, regardless of casualties.

At this moment, Huang Taiji finally arrived.

Huang Taiji took the four most elite Niu Lu from the Two Yellow Banners, and there were more than 200 of them in Baijia alone.

"Who told you to retreat while fighting? Surround me, surround me, and you can't retreat even a step." Huang Taiji took a look and knew that the Ming army could not be moved.

He must destroy the Ming army in front of him.

"All the ministries surrounded the Ming army. Without my order, they are not allowed to take a step back."

"Order the Hongyi cannons of the Firearms Battalion to speed up, collect the Ming army's cannons and use them first."

"As long as you surround them, this Ming army will die."

Huang Taiji was very confident this time, because the Ming army in front of him had no artillery.

For the Ming army without cannons, Huang Taiji was [-]% sure to destroy them all.

Huang Taiji made up his mind, regardless of the casualties, first trapped the Ming army in place to prevent them from rushing out, and then wiped them out to take revenge on Xia Dingshuo.

The Qing soldiers were ordered to retreat no longer, and a large number of Qing soldiers from all directions gathered here.

At the same time, the gunmen of the Ming army dismounted again one after another, and quickly gathered and lined up.

Xu Fuzuo and He Daping also know that now is the time of life and death, no matter what, they must fight out.

Now that they are separated from the artillery by another mile, even if they walk forward, they are not afraid of catching up with them.

Azig's artillery was originally more than a mile away from them, but now it was pulled away by another mile, and the distance was close to three miles, and it was impossible to catch up.

"Line up." He Daping's voice resounded loudly, and then the chief executives and chief executives of each team called out one after another.

Amidst the shouts of countless officers and the shocked expressions of Cao Bianjiao and his subordinates, Xu Fuzuo's blunderbuss lined up quickly, forming a hollow rectangle with four rows of 1000 men each.

The other [-] spear and shield soldiers and Cao's [-] soldiers and horses are all in this long sky, including a large number of their horses.

The outermost perimeter is the blunderbuss, 1000 blunderbusses, every [-] people, form a huge long empty formation.

There are four hundred in the west, four hundred in the east, and two hundred in the north and south respectively, making four rows of rectangles in total.

Cao Bianjiao and his subordinates were stunned.

At first they only saw the Ming army running around on the field, looking very chaotic, but as they ran, they formed four rows of rectangles after a while.

It took less than 3 minutes for thousands of Ming troops to complete the team from dismounting. Of course, they did not have the concept of minutes, so they felt faster.

"Get ready, let's go." There are commanders in every row, and there are more than one in the long row, basically there is one commander for about 100 people.

Hush, huh, huh, the huge rectangular empty formation of the Ming army moved westward in an orderly manner.

"Speed ​​up, speed up." In order to prevent the artillery from following up, the command at all levels ordered to speed up.

After loading the ammunition, the Ming army slowly changed from a brisk walk to a jog.

Bababa, the sound of running on the field was quite chaotic at first, and the rhythm was not at one point. Running and running, many people began to adjust, and gradually became orderly. After dozens of steps, it suddenly became completely at one point. .

So, boom, boom, the sound of the Ming army's running became louder and louder, coupled with the sound of their armor moving, the two sounds blended together to form a terrifying and chilling vocal music.

Whether it's the shouts of killing or the sound of guns, under this strange sound, it gradually becomes extremely weak.

The scene became extremely shocking.

A terrifying and chilling aura was released from the entire battlefield.

This time even the Qing soldiers were shocked.

The entire rectangle of the Ming army moved, and the formation was not chaotic at all, and it was well maintained. It was a standard rectangle from beginning to end.

There were cavalrymen on horses in the middle, and Cao Bianjiao's soldiers and horses each had to pull an extra horse. They were completely shocked to see Xu's soldiers and horses trotting all the way, still maintaining their formation.

And the gunmen are on the periphery, protecting them.

"Chief soldier, Xu's army is really strong." Cao Bianjiao's confidantes and servants all exclaimed.

Cao Bianjiao looked envious, otherwise the Qing soldiers would be so afraid and jealous.

He stared at Xu's soldiers and horses for a while, and suddenly felt a rush of blood in his brain. If he could command such soldiers and horses, even if he died in battle, his life would not be in vain.

"Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo" at this moment the Qing soldiers finally sounded the order to attack.

A large number of Qingqi surrounded them from all directions.

"Stand up." The commanders of the Ming army shouted one after another.

The Ming army stopped, then moved in place, maintaining the formation first.

After the formation stabilized, he ordered again: "Go forward."

The Ming army began to move forward, and the huge rectangle moved forward.

At this time, Qing soldiers from all directions rushed forward.

The Ming army was not afraid at all and continued to move forward.

One-third of this wave of Ming army is Ding Yi Lushun's soldiers and horses, and two-thirds are the original Jizhen Ming army.

However, Xu Fuzuo and the others trained for more than a year from August of the previous year to February of last year, and the monthly salary was paid out exactly.

Then they gathered at Shanhaiguan, and followed Hong Chengchou here. Although they didn't fight, they were still training every day. They still had money in their carts, which would be distributed every month.

Throw away the box this time, and send out the next few months in advance.

Everyone knew that they couldn't lose. If they lost, they would not only die, but also lose their salary.

They also know that only by following Zongbing Xu and Zongbing Ding can they have a good life.

Seeing the Qing soldiers rushing all around, He Daping suddenly drew out his long saber: "Lord Ding will surely win."

"Master Ding must win." The veterans shouted first, and then the whole audience shouted: "Master Ding must win."

Xu Fuzou also waved his hands and shouted: "Dongjiang Town must win, Lord Ding must win."

"Dongjiang Town must win, Master Ding must win."

The audience roared like thunder.

Cao Bianjiao trembled when he heard this, and only then did he realize that this army was indeed Ding Yi's.

Moreover, all the troops only know Ding Yi, not Daming.

"Boom" Qingqi was getting closer and closer, one of the two sides was charging on horseback, the other was walking, both facing each other.

This is even more unbelievable in Cao Bianjiao's eyes. When did he see infantry charging cavalry on the battlefield.

Xu's soldiers and horses strode forward, walking towards the cavalry head-on, what is the difference from the two sides hedging?
Why can Xu's soldiers and horses do this if they are also Ming people?And the other Ming armies collapsed at the first touch, and collapsed before they even got in touch?

It is strict discipline and courage to fear death.

But people are not afraid of death.

Ding Yi, how did you train them to be like this?
In Cao Bianjiao's thoughts.

The two armies joined forces quickly.

200 m.

180 m.

150 m.

"Fight" was due to the dense formation of Qing cavalry, and tens of thousands of soldiers and horses were rushing in all directions. Xu Fuzuo did not hesitate here, and after about 150 meters, he called directly to fight.

They are very experienced in hitting such a long distance. Just hit at a low point. No matter how floating the lead bullet is, it can hit the horse if it misses the man. If it can't hit the front, it may hit the back.

Bang bang bang, the Ming army fired in bursts in four rows.

Go back after the first row, and go back after the second row.

Everyone walks from the left.

The distance between them is very large, because there are two thousand spear shield soldiers and three thousand Cao's soldiers and horses in the middle.

After the four rows were finished, the last two thousand spear and shield soldiers moved forward one after another, forming two rows of thousand-man rectangles, and continued to move forward.

The gunmen stopped in place and quickly reloaded.

After installing it, run immediately to keep up.

If the Qing cavalry rushed up at this time, there would be spear and shield soldiers fighting with them. If they did not rush up, the gunmen would continue to shoot.

The first round was played at about 150 meters, and Qing Qi was hit hard immediately, and they fell off their horses one after another.

After this wave of fighting, the Qing cavalry who charged intensively had at least about a thousand casualties.

The scene was littered with fallen people and injured horses.

Although the Qing soldiers were severely injured in their intensive charge, they wanted to wipe out the Ming army, so they hardly stopped and continued to charge forward.

Fortunately, the Ming army fought earlier and farther in the first round. When Qingqi rushed to 70 meters, the Ming army had already loaded the ammunition in the second round.

Bang bang bang, hit again in the second round.

After fighting back, the spear and shield soldiers will move forward.

Cao Bianjiao and other famous generals looked at Ding Yi's soldiers and horses. The blunderbuss and spear-shield soldiers could be switched freely. Foreword, a person is full of five bodies, even if he doesn't admire him.

A few Ming soldiers in the middle were quite nervous. Sometimes they forgot to go around from the left after the fight and went to the right.

This kind of fighting atmosphere is even more unimaginable in their eyes.
