There are many reasons, the difference in training between the two sides, the difference in food, the difference in military pay...

But the most important reason is the gap in armament between the two sides!
The Ming army, everyone in heavy armor, faced the green battalion soldiers of the Qing army with only a thin uniform. The result can be imagined.

After a long time of stabbing with Qing army swords and spears, they couldn't break the armor of the Ming army!

On the other hand, as long as the Ming army can hit, it will be one knife.

Can the gap between the two sides be small?
……

Zhu Hongyu watched the battle at the top of Jiaxing City.

Some couldn't believe that the Ming army could fight so smoothly!

He thought it would be very difficult for the Ming army to attack Jiaxing City.

Unexpectedly, this was only the first charge of the Ming army, and someone rushed directly to the top of Jiaxing City, and started a hand-to-hand fight with the Qing army.

Moreover, it was the Ming army that kept suppressing the Qing army all the way!
The reason why Zhu Hongyu had such an idea was entirely because he was playing the role of a bystander in this battle.

As a bystander, he naturally couldn't feel how much pressure the Jiaxing defenders had to bear when facing the heavy artillery firepower of the Ming army.

I watched helplessly as the walls were leveled by shells, the city gates were turned into ruins, and the living Brother Paoze was turned into pieces of broken limbs...

No mother can bear such pressure!
After almost a day and a night of heavy artillery strikes, the Qing army could still muster up the courage to fight with the heavy armored soldiers of the Ming army who ascended the city.

Their fineness can already be regarded as quite good!
That's right, the Ming army officially launched an attack after bombarding Jiaxing City for a whole day and night!
Amidst the earth-shattering shouts of killing, the Ming army's heavy armored infantry continued to break through the formation, tearing apart the Qing army's defense line.

Just as the fierce battle at the top of Jiaxing City was intensifying, a group of messengers came rushing from a distance.

"Report!"

"Urgent report!"

"The cavalry of the Qing army attacked, and now it is less than [-] miles away from Jiaxing!"

"..."

The Ming army is storming Jiaxing City, and it can even be said that it is about to succeed and take Jiaxing.

Zhu Hongyu received such an urgent report.

It is true that the large troops of the Qing army are still marching, but Tu Hai and Hong Chengchou sent cavalry troops to attack Jiaxing in order to rescue Jiaxing.

At this time, the Qing army's reinforcement cavalry was less than [-] miles away from Jiaxing City!
This distance sounds not short, but for cavalry, it is just a blink of an eye.

However, Zhu Hongyu didn't panic and responded quickly.

An order was given to Zhang Meng, who commanded the cavalry division of the Ming army, to get ready to lead his troops to face the cavalry of the Qing army.

After Zhang Meng took the order, he quickly rectified his troops and horses, led the cavalry to roar out, and charged directly at the oncoming Qing cavalry.

……

Jiaxing's offensive and defensive battles continued. The Ming army used heavy artillery and heavy armor to knock off Jiaxing's tortoise shells little by little.

It became more and more difficult for the defenders in Jiaxing City to support them!

As the battle became more intense, gradually some defenders in Jiaxing could not bear the pressure brought by the Ming army and chose to surrender to the Ming army.

What's more, simply turn your back!

At the same time, [-] miles north of Jiaxing City, the cavalry of the Ming and Qing Dynasties were also fighting.

The cavalry of the Qing army was marching towards Jiaxing. Groups of elite cavalry soldiers came in armor. The sabers on their waists and the bows and arrows on their horses all showed their elite.

Just at this moment, the cavalry of the Ming army roared into the battlefield.

The horseshoe trampled on the ground and roared, and a large piece of dazzling red armor appeared at the end of the ground.

"kill!"

"Kill the prisoner!"

"Da Ming Wansheng!"

"..."

The cavalry of the Ming army shouted slogans and came roaring.

Straight into the battlefield!
In an instant, the fighting between the two sides began.

On the wide field, two cavalry galloped towards each other, and the sound of bowstrings chattered constantly.

The cavalry of the Qing army kept throwing arrows at the Ming army!

The Ming army's counterattack was also powerful. Rifled guns were fired continuously, and the battlefield was full of gunshots and gunpowder.

A lead bullet, extremely precise harvesting of life!

The cavalry of both sides staggered past, and after a round of shooting, there were casualties to each other.

Then, the cavalry on both sides turned their horses and rushed towards each other.

The cavalry staggered past again, with arrows flying and lead bullets flying across the battlefield. Apart from the roar of horseshoes, the sound of bowstrings and muskets was the most obvious on the entire battlefield.

During this process, people on both sides were constantly hit by arrows or lead bullets and fell off their horses.

Then amidst the mighty sound of galloping horses, it turned into puddles of meat paste.

"kill!"

"Kill the prisoner!"

"Ping thief! Kill Ming thief!"

"..."

As the battle situation evolved, finally, the cavalry on both sides was no longer just riding and shooting.

Instead, hedging started!

Thousands of horses galloped on the battlefield, and the cavalry of the Ming army fought very well.

The array was quickly adjusted, changing from a riding and shooting array to an assault array.

Under the command of the flag, the Ming army quickly set up a formation of wall cavalry charge.

A cavalry lined up side by side, people crowded people, horses crowded horses, and they couldn't even turn around.

The heads of the long spears shining with cold light pointed straight ahead, forming a forest of long spears.

The cavalry of the Ming army charged forward, just like a wall charging forward, a wall with steel thorns, pressing across.

Countless horseshoes trampled on the ground almost at the same time, and the ground roared as it was trampled.

That kind of vibration felt like the gods were showing their power!
"kill!"

Amid the howling and shouting, the cavalry from both sides collided.

The momentary scene was as spectacular as a thunder stirring the ground, sparks hitting the earth... and tragic!

During the fierce cavalry confrontation, countless people and horses were crushed into powder, blood was sprayed, and blood and flesh splashed everywhere in the impact.

In such a big scene, it can be said that there is almost no role that personal force can play.

The cavalry on both sides fiercely fought and clashed, and each life disappeared without even being able to turn over the slightest wave.

The battle situation at this time is different from the evenly matched horse-shooting battle just now, and the Ming army is slightly at a disadvantage.

But the Qing army was completely suppressed!
The hedging had just begun, and the Qing army was suppressed!
The traditional geese formation of the Qing court was overwhelmed by the wall cavalry charge of the Ming army.

Countless Qing cavalry fell off their horses in the collision and were pierced by countless spears.

Because the wall cavalry charge array of the Ming army was too dense,

The strength of the cavalry of the Ming army on the front line of the battle far exceeded that of the Qing army.

When the two sides collided, it even reached the point where a Qing cavalry had to deal with the attacks of several Ming cavalry at the same time.

No matter how good the cavalry of the Qing army is in riding and shooting, and no matter how strong their skills and tactics are on horseback, they can block the assassination of a long spear, and even kill the enemy back.

It is also impossible to block the stabbing of three, five, or even more spears!

The result of the hedging came out. The cavalry of the Ming army roared past, plowing a big hole in the cavalry array of the Qing army.

The cavalry of the cavalry was a little stunned, unable to react to the battle situation in front of them.

Seeing this scene in the future, Wu Tuo, a cavalry soldier of the Qing army, had an expression of disbelief on his face.

Riding on horseback, looking back at the corpses strewn across the field behind him, but most of them were the battlefield of his own corpses, his voice was dry, and he spoke in disbelief.

"This... this is impossible!"

"How could the cavalry of the Ming thief be so strong?"

"My Manchu and Mongolian cavalry in the Qing Dynasty faced the cavalry of the Ming thief, it shouldn't be like this!"

In a confrontation between the two sides, the casualties of the cavalry of the Qing army were almost three or four times that of the cavalry of the Ming army.
