Chapter 754
At the foot of the earth mountain, four or five hundred Jianlu had assembled and formed a tight square formation.Jianlu, who had already climbed the mountain, drew his bow and arrow, and began to aim, ready to meet the enemy.

However, those who came from both sides were tall horses with armored armor, five cavalry side by side, and a long lance resting on the horse, like five poisonous thorns sticking out.The speed is getting faster and faster, the ground is shaking, and the momentum of rushing forward is like Mount Tai pressing down on the top, people blocking and killing people, and Buddhas blocking and killing Buddhas!
Those assembled Jianlu were indeed elite, and the first reaction to encountering an enemy situation immediately began to form an array.But they are also human beings. Seeing the armored cavalry rushing towards them, as long as there is no obstacle to stop the armored cavalry from charging, so what if the formation is formed?All of a sudden, these Jianlu panicked.

Jierhalang in the distance looked ahead in surprise. At this moment, he had already seen clearly that the cavalry of the Ming Dynasty in the front were heavy cavalry in iron armor.About fifty on each side, about a hundred riders.Just from this discovery, he knew that the army under the earth mountain was about to end.In this terrain, once the armored heavy cavalry charges up, nothing can stop it.

Not only that, on the top of Gaizhou City, the section of the city wall facing the earth mountain, I don't know when, a large number of archers have gathered, and with the sound of "bang bang bang" bowstrings, a dense rain of arrows rose into the sky , forming a parabola, falling towards the earth mountain, and even a part of it crossed the earth mountain and fell behind the earth mountain.

If the construction of the earth mountain is completed, there will be anti-arrow measures to protect the archers on the earth mountain. However, at this time, the construction has not been completed, so naturally there are not many defensive measures; Attracted by the cavalry galloping from the side, the unsuspecting Jianlu was immediately covered by the rain of arrows. With the sound of "puff puff" arrows falling to the ground, Jianlu immediately fell down, including the people behind the earth mountain. The assembled phalanx.

Inevitably, there was commotion on and off the mountain, and before they had time to react, another two rounds of arrow rain flew out.Instinctively, Jianlu immediately thought about dealing with the deadly rain of arrows.

At this time, the armored heavy cavalry rushed over.

The hastily shot arrows hit the armored cavalry, but they were of no use. They either hung there, or were simply bounced off, without affecting the armored cavalry's charge at all.

The densely packed spears and spears, following the impact of the armored cavalry, were like paper, and were immediately flooded by the armored cavalry.

The heavy armored cavalry on both sides pierced the small phalanx one behind the other.After the armored cavalry, the tight phalanx could no longer be seen, only the corpses on the ground.The Jianlu who survived by luck were scattered in several corners of the original phalanx.Still in shock, the Qing cavalry of the Ming army came head-on, and it was another wave of harvest.

It was just a charge duel, and almost all of the four or five hundred Jian captives at the foot of the earth mountain were killed.

When Jierhalang saw the armored heavy cavalry of the Ming army, he knew that the phalanx under the earth mountain might be useless.However, he thought that with the elite of the Qing army and the white armored soldiers of Tushan, they would always insist on the arrival of reinforcements.

But he didn't expect that the Ming army seemed to have planned to seize the earth mountain long ago. Not only did they attack from both sides, but they also had support from the top of the city, and they killed and wounded a large number of Qing soldiers at once.In just one round, not only the soldiers under the mound were not spared, even the white-armored soldiers on the mound were killed or injured a lot during the panic.

This scene was also seen by Huang Taiji who ran out of the camp after hearing the news, he couldn't help but turn pale and said in surprise: "Why are there heavy cavalry in iron armor?"

Everyone knows that in a field battle, as long as it is used properly, the armored heavy cavalry is a powerful weapon for charging.However, building armored heavy cavalry is not so easy, it consumes a lot of financial and material resources, and the choice of personnel and horses is also critical.Generally speaking, only the most elite army has enough financial resources to build armored heavy cavalry.

However, the Ming army has always focused on defense. Why do you need such a costly armored cavalry?Lu Xiangsheng's cavalry army did have it, but it seemed to be only a little bit. For the Dongjiang Army, an army that often harassed Liaodong, it was not unusual at all.However, there were also Ming troops in Gaizhou City, which was really unexpected.

After being shocked, Huang Taiji didn't have time to think about it. He saw that the Ming army that had left the city was beginning to snatch the mound. The pawns are attacking the mound.

On the side of the Qing army, a cavalry army is about to reach Tushan.But the infantry of the Ming army on the opposite side had almost completed their assembly, and the speed of this assembly surprised even Huang Taiji.There was only one thought in his mind: the elite, this is definitely the elite of the Ming army, the former old opponent Guan Ningjun, it is absolutely impossible to complete the assembly so quickly!

It's not the heavy armored cavalry to attack the assembled infantry position, it's no different from courting death.The Qing army also realized this, dismounted one after another when they got close, and began to gather for an infantry battle.

And behind this Qing army, another army is also rushing.As long as this army arrives, the number of people can overwhelm the Ming army.

Huang Taiji just glanced at the battlefield, and immediately began to issue an order to mobilize troops to attack the two city gates separately. It would be best if they could capture them, otherwise the retreat of the Ming army outside the city would be cut off.

After doing this, he turned his head and looked at the Mongols.It was found that the Mongolian tribes were also gathering troops, but at a very slow speed, and they were even gathering those who fled back.

These Mongols are far inferior to the Qing army in terms of military discipline, and it is unrealistic for them to assemble and complete at once.However, Huang Taiji discovered from the clues of their gathering that they were intentionally procrastinating.

"Preaching the decree, a good opportunity has appeared, and all the Mongolian tribes have assembled and attacked within the three-way drum, otherwise don't blame our army for being ruthless!" Huang Taiji became ruthless, and asked his personal guards to pass the order immediately.

When the Ming army left the city, it was a great opportunity to annihilate them. If the opportunity was missed, people would have to fill the city wall with their lives.This opportunity must be seized.

The sound of drums and shouts of killing resounded on the earth mountain.On the side of Tushan facing the Jianlu camp, more than 1000 infantry of the Ming army have assembled and are ready for battle.

On the opposite side of them, the army of Jianlu headquarters has almost completed its assembly.They didn't have time to wait until all the assembly was completed, and they began to move forward under the command of the front-line generals.Otherwise, once the earth mountain is captured by the Ming army, it will be very difficult to regain it!

A Jianlu cavalry army has arrived, guarding both sides of the infantry formation, waiting for the opportunity to move forward and capture the fighter.

Outside Gaizhou City, the original calm was broken in more than a quarter of an hour. The army gathered, the Jianlu army pressed forward, and the Mongolian army lingered forward. The next round of war was imminent.
