Chapter 425 Red Lancers
You will eventually understand!"
The moment Wang Kuande's words fell, Yang Yufan had already led more than 500 cavalry out. When he led the cavalry out, for the officers and soldiers on the front line, they were struggling in a hail of bullets. In front of them was
The Folang machine that rained bombs may have a very short range, but its rate of fire was very fast. Although the howitzers behind them continued to attack the earthen wall built by Jiannu's base basket with solid shells and grenades,
But it did not stop the Qing army's bombardment.
Faced with such continuous bombardment, the soldiers who had resolutely charged continued to fall under the rain of bullets. Even if some brothers rushed over, they faced the Jiannu detachment wearing heavy armor and wearing heavy armor.
Jiannu of A yelled words that no one could understand, and rushed out from between the baskets. They waved the maces and axes in their hands and chopped down the Ming army desperately. When they were far away, they used steel-tipped tiger spears to kill
Stab, and when close, use mace or ax to kill.
When he split Jiannu's ax with his bayonet, Xu Linchuan's arms were numb from the shock, but he still stepped forward and stabbed with all his strength.
"kill……"
Although the bayonet missed the target, it still hit the man's shoulder. The man screamed and slashed at him with an ax in one hand.
There was still a chance to draw a gun at such a close distance. The moment he threw away the gun, Xu Linchuan rushed towards the man's waist, hugged him fiercely, and then lifted up and threw him hard.
The person flew out.
"ah……"
The moment the person fell to the ground, Xu Linchuan had already taken out the dagger and rushed over again. While the person was stunned, the dagger pierced the neck from the gap under the helmet. While he was twisting his neck hard,
, the thick blood spurted out like a fountain, covering his face with blood, and his whole body seemed to be fished out of blood.
Killing on the battlefield is a matter of life and death, and there is no room for mercy or distraction. As soon as he killed a person, when he saw brothers fighting with Jiannu over there, he directly picked up the tiger spear on the ground.
Holding it like a bayonet, he charged through.
"kill……"
He stepped forward and stabbed with all his strength, causing the tiger spear to pierce Jiannu's armor directly, and almost penetrated the man. Although it did not penetrate into the chest, when Xu Linchuan tried his best to twist the barrel of the gun when he put it away, the man
He screamed and lost his breath.
"Cavalry, cavalry..."
Just as the brothers were desperately fighting Jian Nu, suddenly, the deafening horse hooves stunned everyone. Before Xu Linchuan could react, they just raised their heads and saw the cavalry coming from a distance.
Just then, they heard a sky-shattering shout and the sound of horse hooves coming from behind.
This was the cavalry led by Yang Yufan. Although there were only less than 600 cavalry, Yang Yufan, who was in the lead, still led them to kill the Jiannu cavalry on the left without hesitation.
"The infantry retreats alternately, the infantry retreats alternately..."
When the cavalrymen held up their spears to attack the Jiannu cavalry, they did not forget to give orders to the infantry on the battlefield. Except for the soldiers who were in a stalemate, the other soldiers immediately covered each other and began to retreat. It was not a hasty retreat.
Instead, they alternately cover the retreat. Although the Pinglu Army advocates attack, their training subjects also include battlefield retreat training. This is even more important than the attack. After all, large defeats on the battlefield are often caused by unorganized
Caused by the collapse.
"Come closer to me, move closer to me, in groups of five, one group retreats, one group covers..."
As a sergeant, Xu Linchuan held a gun and yelled at the brothers around him. No matter whether they were comrades in the team or not, they must obey the principle of obeying the nearest person when retreating. He commanded the brothers in the front group to alternate hand-to-hand combat.
While taking cover, he saw that the commander-in-chief, who was leading the way, had collided head-on with Jiannu's cavalry.
The five-foot-long lance was clamped under Yang Yufan's left armpit. His arm only served to control the direction. The same was true for the nearly six hundred cavalrymen around him. The red silk on the heads of hundreds of lances was like
Like a red cloud between heaven and earth, streaks of sunset light passed across the sky.
In front of them, thousands of Jiannu cavalry rushed toward them with shouts. Even though they were one against ten, everyone rushed over without hesitation. When they saw the desperate attack of the Ming army's cavalry,
, Fei Yanguo opened his eyes wide in shock.
The desperate fight of the Ming army was completely beyond his expectation, and what made him even more unimaginable was that in the main formation of the charging cavalry, a cavalryman held high the general flag.
Under the sun, the handsome flag with the word "Yang" written on it followed closely behind Yang Yufan. On the battlefield in the east, this general's flag was the Chinese military flag. In most cases, the Chinese military flag was absolutely perfect.
It would not move lightly, but now it is moving with Yang Yufan.
"It's General Minggou!"
Niksai, who was leading the cavalry on the left wing, held the reins of his horse and shouted excitedly.
"Surround him!"
His legs pinched the horse's belly, and the horse speeded up. This was a general!
Beside him, Jiannu's cavalry either held guns with both hands, brandished the shimmering sabers in their hands, or drew their bows and prepared to shoot. Most of Jiannu's cavalry came from the grasslands, or were trained by the Mongols. Their tactics
Naturally, it is also Mongolian. They are better at holding the gun with both hands flexibly instead of charging with the gun, which also determines that their lances are shorter.
Because of this, facing the cavalry that was several feet taller, the Jiannu cavalry rushing at the front inevitably felt a sense of unprecedented fear.
"ah!"
The moment the two sides collided, the beautiful red ray of light pierced directly into the Jiannu in front. In an instant, a bloody mist rose between the sky and the earth. Although the Jiannu tried to kill them with rifles, they faced a
Row after row of attacks.
Yang Yufan held the lance under one arm. When he was about to engage the enemy, his eyes and the tip of the lance formed a straight line, aiming at Jian Nu's chest. They formed a straight line. At the moment of impact, the tip of the lance sank directly into Jian Nu's chest.
Chest, Jian Nu on horseback was knocked down and with the help of this impact, the tip of the gun separated from the body, stirring up a red blood mist in the air.
The blood-colored mist and rain were flying in the air, and merged with the red silk at the tip of the gun to become a dazzling fiery red.
Amidst the thunderous sound of horse hooves, these cavalrymen lined up in dozens of rows and charged forward without hesitation, holding their spears. In this dense formation charge of cavalry, holding their spears fully demonstrated their advantages, just like in Macedonia.
Like a spear formation, these uniform lances were gathered into one, like a sharp lance, and pierced into the Jiannu cavalry.
Such an impact was undoubtedly extremely fatal to Jiannu. However, in just one confrontation, the seemingly menacing Jiannu cavalry was torn open. Only when the Ming army's cavalry passed by,
Only the nearby Jian slaves had the opportunity to stab him with guns in both hands.
While the sharp spear pierced the body of the Ming army cavalry from the side, the cavalry behind or beside him would hold up the spear and directly hit the chest of the slave. With a "bump", the tip of the spear penetrated him.
The moment he took off the armor, he flew directly out. The tip of the gun that had just entered his chest fell away from his body due to inertia. As he was knocked away, bright red blood spurted out from the holes in the armor. When he was in
When a streak of red flashed through the air and fell to the ground, the horses behind them trampled over their corpses without mercy.
During such a cavalry charge, whether it was the Ming army or the Qing army, falling off the horse meant death. Even if they were lucky enough to survive, they would be trampled by horses' hooves and eventually turn into a pile of indistinguishable flesh.
This kind of uniform lancer charge is indeed very lethal when resolutely collides. It has an unstoppable momentum. If there are enough cavalry to continuously launch wave-like charges like this, maybe, well, the result on the field will be
A fundamental reversal will occur, but they only have a few hundred people. In response to the counterattack of the absolutely superior enemy cavalry, they soon fell into a tight siege. The already uniform cavalry formation was divided and scattered, facing
Caught in the reality of melee, these cavalrymen turned their spears into javelins and threw them at the enemy. As the enemy screamed, they either took out their double-barreled muskets or drew their sabers and got into a melee with the enemy...
