Autumn of the 17th year of Chongzhen

Chapter 733 Decisive Battle on the Western Front IX

The rampaging cavalry rested for a while and reorganized their formation. The cavalry loaded the three-eyed gun with ammunition, gasped for a while, and roared out again.

At this time, on the battlefield, the Ming army was in the front line, driving the defeated green battalion into the Qing army's infantry line. Bo Luo could not make many choices. Apart from letting the harassing cavalry raid the front line, he didn't have any other effective options. means.

But the cavalry raided the front, and the Ming army rushed out of the horse army, and he had nothing to resist.

Wang Yan made a set of combined punches, which made it very difficult for Boluo to parry.

In the past four or five years, the Ming army has been changing step by step, but the Qing army is still standing still, and even went downhill.

The most powerful Eight Banners of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, after entering the colorful world of the Central Plains, they robbed them full of clothes, stretched out their hands to eat, and opened their mouths. They were happy to have fun, and their desire to fight quickly declined. You want to fight when you are sick.

Such an army can only become more and more corrupt, while the Ming army has the ideal of expelling the slaves and restoring China.

Even ordinary soldiers and common people don't know what China is, but the Manchus killed so many people, slaughtered so many cities, robbed so many things, and destroyed their originally peaceful and stable life. It is said that soldiers and common people can understand opera without propaganda.

Under this kind of ideal and hatred, from the literati bureaucrats to the traffickers and pawns, they are all contributing to the entire anti-Qing war.

Officials govern the region according to their orders, merchants pay taxes to increase their annual income, craftsmen make sophisticated equipment, and the common people produce enough rice for the army to consume.

After various aspects were accumulated, the entire Ming army system naturally experienced quantitative changes. The soldiers had enough military pay, enough food to eat, put on brand new armor, and picked up sophisticated weapons.

The accumulation of these conditions has made the combat power of the Five Loyalty Army constantly change and improve.

Boluo didn't see the changes in the Five Zhongjun, and was still looking at the Five Zhongjun with the old eyes of a few years ago, so he completely miscalculated.

"My lord, let the Zhengbai flag go!" Tong Tulai exclaimed after seeing it.

Boluo didn't pay attention at this time, and when he heard the suggestion, he didn't care so much. He immediately followed suit and shouted: "Send the order to let Zhengbai Banner stop the Ming cavalry."

The Qing army's central military order flag was waved, and the red flag and Zhenglan followed the order, changing from harassment to surprise attack on the third battalion of the Ming army.

The Longjie and Longyi battalions on the left and right had to stop when they saw the cavalry rushing towards them, but their formation was already disorganized during the movement, and the soldiers hurriedly rearranged their formation, while the Kesheng battalion continued to rush towards the Qing army's formation, sticking to the defeated army's ass.

When the cavalry of the Qing army attacked, Hu Jie and Hu Yi did not panic.

Liu Tichun and Yang Yanchang are both generals in the army. Zhongzhen Town has fought against Jingzhou, Xiangyang, and eastern Sichuan. They have never seen anything in the market.

The two generals saw that the enemy cavalry who had been harassed by cavalry and shooting came rushing towards them with the momentum of Mount Tai, they didn't even move their eyelids, they just held their sabers and watched their subordinates form the formation.

The Qing army had a large number of cavalry, so the Ming army focused on training methods to deal with cavalry raids during training.

The soldiers with long spears immediately came to the outside. The long spears were staggered like a dense forest, and there were a large number of guns and archers inside, and they were also ready.

The ground was trembling, and the [-]-horse army in the rear of the Qing army galloped out to meet the approaching Ming army horse army after receiving the order.

So far, in the Ming and Qing Dynasties, all the horse troops have been thrown into the battlefield.

The iron hooves of the horses trampled the ground, and the whole plain trembled. In the formation of the Ming army, bows, arrows, and guns were fired at the same time. The cavalry who rushed to the front of the Qing army fell in response. The horses soared into the air, shook off the cavalry, and smashed heavily .

"Fire the blunderbuss!" The officers shouted one after another in the Ming army formation.

Hearing the order, the blunderbussmen raised their blunderbusses horizontally, and in the flickering flames of the matchlock, each looked for the target. Their half-closed eyes burst out with fierce light.

"Bah bah bah~" Lead bullets sprayed out in the diffuse gunpowder smoke, and cavalrymen with blue and red flags hit arrows and fell off horses everywhere.

After firing the blunderbuss, the rain of arrows from the Qing cavalry's counterattack also rushed towards the face. The soldiers of Hu Jie and Hu Yi did not dodge or evade, and focused on opening their bows and loading their ammunition. Don't panic, stick to your post, and be loyal to your duties, this is called an elite teacher.

With a "boom", Qingqi crashed into the formation of the Ming army. After all, the Ming army lost its formation while running, which is why Qingqi dared to charge into the formation.

"Good!" Seeing this, Boluo waved his arms excitedly.

When Qingqi crashed into the Ming army's infantry, the Hengchong Horse Army also met Zhengbai Banner. There were 4000 Hengchong Horse Army left, and Zhengbai Banner had [-] people.

After resting for a while, the rampaging cavalry cheered up, and Qin Shangxing roared, "Kill!" The two cavalrymen met in the wilderness.

"呯呯呯~" There was a sound of blunderbusses, and the rampaging horse army was still the same as last time. The firecrackers severely damaged the enemy's cavalry front arrows, while Zhengbaiqi was obviously not as good at cavalry battles as Zhenglan and Xianghong, and could draw bows. Less than half of the shots were missed, and half were missed.

A dense mass of projectiles was shot out, and the enemy cavalry fell in pieces, followed by the earth-shaking impact of the two armies, like two tributaries, converging into a torrent.

The two armies passed by each other, Qin Shangxing reined in the horse, and when he looked back, he saw a fallen corpse and a mourning horse.

"Reform formation! Charge again!" On the other side, Zhao Shenkuan, who also broke through the formation, reined in his horse and shouted.

The formation was washed away by the somewhat scattered rampaging cavalry, and the knights looked at the officers' helmets and flags, and quickly rearranged their arrows.

A moment later, Zhao Shenkuan clamped his legs and led the cavalry to charge again, which was bound to crush the Qing army's Zhengbai Banner.

On the other side, the outer spears of the Ming army were knocked away by the Qing cavalry, but the Ming army did not collapse as imagined. The entire infantry was sunken by the Qing cavalry, but the Ming army caught the blow .

Before the blue armor and the red flag, they confronted the rampaging horse army twice, and then harassed the Ming army with cavalry and shooting. Both the cavalry and the horses under their crotches were exhausted, and they were not in the best state to charge.

As soon as the Qing cavalry entered the battle, the Hujie and Huyi soldiers, under the command of Liu Tichun and Yang Yanchang, poked the cavalry upwards with their long spears and chopped off the horse's legs with their sabers. Water, go around the array.

Seeing this, Boluo waved his hand up, but before he let it go, his face couldn't help twitching.

"Not good, the Ming army is coming over again."

On the battlefield, the cavalry charged, the infantry pressed forward, Huyi and Hujie blocked Qingqi's blow, and Kesheng had already chased and killed the defeated army.

The Qing cavalry was basically restrained, and the two Ming armies had gained the upper hand. Wang Yan did not hesitate, "Zhongwu Town, Guangwu, Xiaowu, Xuanwu, Zhongzhen Town Huwei, Huben! All armies attack together, sons, kill!"

The sound of howling like a raging sea sounded in front of the Ming army. Accompanied by the loud trumpets and drums, the boiling blood of the soldiers rushed out like water from a dike.
