Emperor Chongzhen of the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 513 The Northern Expedition Flesh and Flesh

Ye Keshu, the general manager of Shengjing in the Manchu and Qing Dynasties, was a white-armored soldier who participated in the Battle of Saerhu with Nurhachi.

Because of this.

Ye Keshu admired his Great Qing ancestor Nurhachi very much, especially his Taizu's military thinking.

Just like this time, he was going to make breakthroughs for the current Ming army according to the tactics of Saerhu back then, and attack separately.

At this time, the Second Army of the Guards also realized that there must be a large group of elite cavalry around them, and they all began to stand ready.

"Order to go on, the front and rear infantry battalions move around to guard, while the artillery is among the infantry, shooting freely, the cavalry sets up their shields and weaves bows and arrows, all take out the thunderbolts, and when the enemy approaches, throw them out! Put the thunderbolts in your hands Throw all the thunder out!"

Commander Qin Zuoming gave orders. From the moment he entered Xiaoheishan area, he guessed that this might be an area where cavalry ambushed, but he still chose to come here, because in his opinion, it is impossible not to put yourself on the ground first. In the most dangerous area, it is impossible to concentrate and annihilate Jianlu's main force outside the pass.

Qin Zuoming is also from a family of generals, and has followed Zhou Yuji for many years in battles, and has rich experience.

Therefore, as soon as he entered here, he has been cautious, telling his subordinates to be vigilant, and put the artillery and cavalry in the middle, and put the infantry, which is easier to fight in narrow areas, at the two ends. All the thunders were distributed, and almost every officer and soldier had more than ten thunders.

The Manchurian iron cavalry ambushed in the Xiaoheishan area by virtue of their own geographical advantages. Now when Xiaoheishan rushes and dives all the way towards the Guards, the distance is very long, and all of them are skilled in bows and horses. Arrows and arrows, like bullets flying rapidly, shot and killed some infantry on the periphery of the Guards to the end.

The Guards infantry couldn't help grinning, very angry. They hadn't suffered any casualties since they landed, but now they suddenly lost hundreds of people. Naturally, they wished to kill all these Manchurian cavalry now.

The Guards cavalry rode on horseback and hurriedly raised their shields to reduce casualties for the Guards infantry and artillery. The Guards infantry also hurriedly raised their rifles to shoot at the Manchurian iron cavalry who were rushing forward, and the artillerymen did the same. Immediately bombarded with three catties of light artillery.

However, because these Manchurian cavalry were too close to the Guards, and they dispersed too quickly, and they were doing a dive-style variable acceleration movement, which made it difficult for the infantry and artillery of the Guards to attack these Manchurians in one breath, even though they had intensive firepower. Iron cavalry does too much damage.

"Ming dogs, die!"

Ye Keshu was extremely arrogant at this time, sneered coldly, and shot a guard infantry with one arrow, and when he saw the painful appearance of the Ming army shot by him, he was very excited, and rode his horse closer Guards.

The officers and soldiers of the Guards gritted their teeth and waited for these arrogant Manchurian iron cavalry to get closer, but when these Manchurian iron cavalry entered the range of the Shocking Thunder projected by the Guards officers and soldiers, there were nearly [-] thunderbolts in an instant. Throw it out.

Boom boom boom!
Boom boom boom!
Boom boom boom!
The Thunderbolt exploded within a hundred steps away from the Guards, and the explosive force formed by the nitro-explosives caused snow and dust to fly up the entire hillside next to the official road.

And those Manchurian iron cavalry who rushed forward were blown to pieces in a short while, and the horses fell heavily to the ground, with blood all over their mouths and noses.

The Manchurian iron cavalry behind were also dumbfounded. Some of their cavalry were also blown out by the rapid explosion, and even their horses were also blown out.

But under the action of inertia, Manchurian iron cavalry still rushed over.

Boom boom boom!
Boom boom boom!
Boom boom boom!
The guards threw another round of thunder, blowing thousands of Manchurian cavalry into the air.

And Ye Keshu was also inside, and he himself was thrown out heavily, hitting the mud, and the helmet on his head flew out. At that time, a sharp pain came from his shoulder. When he looked back, he saw I found that my left hand had long since disappeared:

"Ah! My hand!"

Another round of thunder from the guards flew over, and within a hundred paces, the Manchurian iron cavalry who hadn't been killed and were still howling suffered another carpet bombing.

"Master, run!"

A very powerful manchurian white armor soldier dragged Ye Keshu, the general manager of Shengjing, to evacuate here.

The other wounded Manchurian iron cavalry were not so lucky. They were all blown to pieces by the sky-shattering thunder, or mixed with white snow and mud, or hung on stones, or fell into the ditch, without a sound There were screams, only the pungent smell of gunpowder smoke and bright red blood formed a circle in the area a hundred steps away from the Guards.

The more than 2000 Manchurian iron cavalry in the back did not dare to rush over again, and hurriedly reined in the reins and turned their horses to retreat.

Although the terrain in Xiaoheishan area is not steep, it is easy to go down the mountain and difficult to go up the mountain. The Manchurian cavalry rushed down very fast, but now they can't get up quickly when they retreat.

As a result, the artillery of the Guards had begun to show off, thousands of artillery pieces were pushed to the front, the elevation angle was directly raised, and thousands of artillery shells were fired.

There was another distant tremor of the earth.

The remaining Manchurian cavalry who hadn't dismounted were blown to pieces directly by people connected to the horses, and those who dismounted either had their horses blown away or their people were blown away, leaving the horse alone.

And there were also some Manchurian cavalry about fifty or so who were under the horses. They were so lucky that they gritted their teeth and turned over to the opposite hillside. Ye Keshu, the general manager of Shengjing, was also among them.

If Daming had mortars now, they could kill all fifty of Ye Keshu's remnants with a direct round of curved fire.

But now there is no Second Army of the Ming Guards, so the infantry can only charge there.

"Come on!"

All infantrymen of the Guards rushed over with bayonets on, gritted their teeth. When they saw the Manchurian cavalry still crawling on the ground, they stabbed them directly. It seemed that it was not enough to vent the hundreds of wounded Manchurian cavalry without stabbing them. brethren's wrath.

Of the more than fifty remaining Manchu iron cavalry in charge of Shengjing, only a dozen or so cavalry escaped, and the remaining thirty or so cavalry were all wiped out by the chasing infantry of the Guards.

At that time, a Cavalry Battalion of the Imperial Guards also chased them all the way from the official road. They were miserable. They had not played any role since they landed. Now it is not easy to meet the strongest man of this era. The cavalry, however, had no place to play due to geographical restrictions. Now even if they were chasing the dozen or so remnants of the enemy, they naturally worked extraordinarily hard, chasing all the way to Liaodong Town.

At this time, Liaodong Town did not have any troops to defend at all. Originally, the commander-in-chief here was Gaodi, but he and his troops had already been wiped out by the Second Guards Army, so the Guards cavalry directly surrounded Liaodong Town, which is the area outside the pass. The status is second only to Liaoyang City in Shengjing.
