The Rise of Ming Dynasty 1646

Chapter 681
Yu Xin stared solemnly at the tragic battle situation with his binoculars, but saw Li Ying being stabbed in the shoulder by a spear, and then fell on his back with the gushing blood.

He threw down the binoculars, drew out his saber and said to the officer beside him, "All the heralds, guards, engineers and doctors, follow me!"

"Yes!"

"Gan Xinda! The Jaegering Battalion prepares bayonets and goes to cover the left wing!"

"Yes!"

In the current situation, it is necessary to use the body to resist the enemy's continuous advancing momentum, and long-distance sniping is not so important.

Immediately, Yu Xin personally led more than 240 guards, heralds, engineers, etc., and went straight to the right wing of the Ming army line.

To say that the training level of the Dragon Guards is really extraordinary, even the engineers and medical soldiers basically mastered line tactics, but they were not equipped with rifled guns.

Li Ying was a senior general of the infantry battalion. His fall shocked the soldiers beside him, and someone bent down to help him immediately.

"Master Battalion!"

"Master Li, how are you doing?"

"Master Li, get up quickly..."

However, their distraction made the next attack vulnerable.

One of Chitat's captives took aim at the gap, brought more than a dozen guards and rushed up with swords.The soldiers around Li Ying were caught off guard, and several people were stabbed immediately.

Seeing this, the soldiers of the Qing army hurriedly followed in ecstasy, and the infantry line was squeezed out of a gap more than two feet wide at Li Ying's place in an instant.

In fact, because there were too many prisoners, even though the soldiers of the Dragon Guards on both sides held the enemy with bayonets regardless of life and death, more and more captives rushed over.The soldiers of a battalion near Li Ying's right were suddenly in danger of being divided and surrounded.

Just at the critical moment, a burst of gunshots was heard behind the infantry line, and more than a dozen Qing soldiers in the gap were immediately thrown back by the powerful impact of lead bullets.

Yu Xin yelled, "Kill!" He rushed forward with dozens of guards.They cooperated skillfully, with the bayonet rising and falling, the captive soldiers at Li Ying's position just now were turned over, and the rest were startled, losing their previous momentum.

Then more engineers of the Ming army followed up with sharp steel shovels.Although they only know the simplest two movements of chopping and stabbing, their moves are also uniform. Every time the engineers give orders again and again, more than a dozen captive soldiers will be killed by the sharp edge of the shovel.

The soldiers in the infantry line who were struggling to support saw the enemy army at the gap start to retreat, and hurriedly looked back, all exclaimed, "Commander?!"

"My lord, it's dangerous here..."

"It's Commander! Brothers, fight with the captives!"

"Kill one and earn another! Master Yu is here, so why is my life so pity!"

"Yes! I, Yuan Kaifu, put the 100 catties here today, come on!"

The participation of the supreme commander in the battle greatly boosted the morale of the Dragon Guards. The crowd roared loudly, as if they could not see the dense forest of swords and spears in front of them. enemy body.

Under such desperate fighting, the gaps in the infantry line gradually closed again.The medical soldiers also picked up the weapons on the ground one after another, and stood shoulder to shoulder with the infantry. Those hands that had saved countless lives did not hesitate to kill the Tartars.

Duoduo just saw the enemy line loosen, but unexpectedly stabilized again, and immediately jumped in a hurry.

If the southerners are so difficult to deal with, I am afraid that Qing Dynasty will never be able to take down the Central Plains Huahua World. A chill flashed in his heart, and he looked up at the sky again, and couldn't help frowning, "Although the southern army formation seems to be crumbling, it is also There is no room for further delay."

He pointed to the place where Li Ying had fallen, and said to Ba Yala guard beside him: "Follow me to break the formation!"

These seven hundred Ba Yala are all the elite of the Beijing camp, most of them are relatives and clan relatives of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and they can be said to be the most valiant Jianzhou soldiers.Duoduo believes that if he leads them to attack the weak points of the Ming army, he will surely win the game in one fell swoop.

"Master, you can't do it!"

"Yes, master, you are a nobleman, how could you be in danger..."

"Shut up!" Dodo shouted, "Get on my horse!"

As soon as he held the reins and stepped into the stirrups, he saw several horsemen galloping towards them. The riders shouted in shock, "Report! Southerners have attacked my rear!"

It is the nineteenth day of the first month of the first year of Hanxing.

Just after the end of the day, the [-] Ming troops under Deng Shan, Ma Wenhu, and Gan Hui rushed all the way to the battlefield of Ximing Mountain.

Arriving together with them, there is also the Emperor of Heaven and his Thousand Imperial Forest Army.

The history of Daming, and even the entire world, has completely turned on another track from this moment!
In order to gather combat power as much as possible, Duoduo transferred the Qitat troops at the back of the palace to attack Yu Xin's defense line. As a result, there were only more than 3000 Guanning troops under Han Daxun in the Jianlu rear army.

Zhu Linmi had already seen the tragic battle at Yu Xin with a telescope, and quickly said to Deng Shan: "The order is to send the main force of the Polu battalion to contain the enemy. Ma Wenhu's cavalry pierced through the Jianlu rear at the fastest speed, and the dragoon battalion followed closely. The cavalry rushed to the north to reinforce Yu Xin's defenders."

"Yes!"

Deng Shan turned and left, Gan Hui frowned and said: "Your Majesty, Ma Wenhu's troops are all Lancers, and there are only less than 400 people, so it may not be easy to break through..."

Zhu Linmei frowned and nodded. Lancers were extremely sharp against cavalry, but the lances they equipped could only hit one infantryman at a time, and it was very troublesome to collect and stab again, so they were rarely used to attack infantry formations.

He looked at the imperial camp beside him, and waved to Shi Lin, "Send the order, the imperial camp forms an formation, break through the left wing of Jianlu! Open the way for the dragoons."

The imperial battalion is standard dragoon equipment, and the cavalry sword is very suitable for killing infantry.

Shi Lin was shocked, and hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, the battlefield is extremely dangerous, how could there be no imperial guards to escort..."

Zhu Linming didn't talk too much nonsense, and got on the horse, "Then I'll go and break the formation myself."

"It's absolutely impossible!" Shi Lin was so frightened that he knelt on the ground on the spot, and said helplessly, "This subordinate will bring five hundred imperial battalions to destroy the enemy's formation. Leave five hundred people here to protect the Holy Majesty."

"Just keep 200 people." Zhu Linmi said in an unquestionable tone, "Go!"

"This... obeys the order!"

Immediately, Deng Shan led the [-] Polu Battalion infantry to deploy on the south side of Ximing Mountain. The infantry line had not yet been lined up, and Han Daxun's troops behind the Qing army's palace were already frightened and began to retreat towards the Duoduo Central Army.

At the same time as the infantrymen of the Polu camp fired their first salvo, more than a thousand cavalrymen and cavalrymen of the Imperial Imperial Battalion of the Ming Dynasty rushed out from the east side, piercing through Han Daxun's left flank like a knife cutting tofu.

Behind them, seven hundred dragoons followed closely, galloping through the gaps in the enemy formation.

Shi Lin led the team to run another two miles, and encountered the Guan Ning army of Zu Runze's department that had retreated earlier.

Zu Runze's men and horses were killed and wounded by guns and cannons just now, when their morale collapsed, many people didn't even get on their horses.

Shi Lin didn't fight fiercely with them either, he fired two rounds of the spring wheel, while Guan Ning's army was still in a panic, he pierced through again, pointing directly at the main force of Duoduo's army.

Gong Adai had just gained an advantage and was constantly compressing the Xi Mingshan Ming army's defense line. Suddenly, he heard the warning horn sounding behind him. Looking back, he saw a group of cavalry rushing towards his right flank under the dust.

He hastily mobilized Chitat to lead 2000 people to deploy defenses on the east side, but the Qing army had exhausted all its strength in fighting the infantry line in front of it. Where could it draw troops in a hurry?
Chitat ran back and forth, shouting and drinking for a long time, and finally gathered 300 people, facing the south side and hastily forming a formation.

As soon as they lined up neatly, Shi Lin had already arrived.But this time, facing the elite Jianzhou heavy infantry, he failed to break through immediately. He had to lead his troops to turn around and regroup on the south side to prepare to charge again.

The dragoon battalion following them had abandoned their horses and walked on foot at this time, forming a line array at an extremely fast speed, and pressing northward with guns.

After Shi Lin charged into the Qitate battle formation for the second time, Gan Hui shouted loudly, "Aim!"

Immediately, seven hundred rifled guns pointed at Jianlu on the opposite side.

"put!"

Chitat's troops had fought Yu Xinbu for a long time before, and their physical strength was almost at their limit. They were attacked twice by Shi Lin's imperial camp just now, and they could hardly hold on.

At this time, they were hit head-on by the Minie bombs, and after nearly a hundred people were killed, they immediately began to tremble and retreat.

Seeing this, Chitat waved his knife desperately and shouted, "Don't retreat! The Southern Army will be defeated in a short while, give me a shot..."

In the middle of his speech, Gan Hui's dragoons fired another volley, and a miniature bullet accurately passed through his cheek from 130 steps away, and the body fell to the ground in response.

There was a burst of exclamation in the Qing army, "The general is dead!"

"The reinforcements from the southerners have arrived, they can't stop them!"

"Run, if you slow down, it will be too late..."

These more than a thousand Zhenghuang Banner captives turned their heads and ran away, but they just poured into Gong Adai's army who was fighting fiercely with Yu Xin's troops.
