Chapter 168 Wang Hongyu carries the coffin to fight
Huang Taiji suddenly realized this and hurriedly asked his personal guards to cover Fan Wencheng and hide behind him. He commanded the command flag to pass the message and asked the Zhenglan Banner and the Mongols to spread out the formation of the Crane Wing Formation and surround the Ming army from the left and right.
As soon as the news came out, the Ming army was seen moving.
Coming towards him to kill him!
Wang Hongyu stood at the forefront of the spear phalanx, personally carrying a coffin with the Ming troops.
"Kill the Tatars! Please bear witness!!!"
Wang Hongyu carried the coffin and fought to the death. In the coffin was his eldest brother Zhou Dunji.
If you can win, take your eldest brother home!
If you can't win, just share the coffin with your elder brother!
"Ouch! Fight to the death!"
The Ming army, which numbered less than 3,000, was small in number, but its momentum was earth-shaking. Their eyes were full of determination to avenge their comrades, and their hearts were burning with raging anger as they ran and advanced with guns drawn.
After Wang Hongyu's formation and square formation training, the running is also uniform. Now it is not as fast as the forest, but as fast as the wind, as slow as the forest, as aggressive as fire, and as motionless as a mountain.
Fenglin and the volcanoes condensed into one body and rushed straight towards Huangtaiji with the power of Taishan Beidou.
Huang Taiji knew very well that the cavalry could not fight against the spears. He could only win by dismounting and using heavy armored infantry to fight the spears. After breaking the formation, they would fight.
However, in the past few days, Jiannu became embarrassed when they saw the phalanx of spears. Even if the flag leader personally scolded them, they did not want to dismount.
You can resist spears better when you are dismounted than when you are on horseback, but you can't run fast!
You can ride at any time while riding a horse, so you don't want to get off the horse stupidly.
"Anyone who doesn't obey orders will be killed!"
Huang Taiji also showed his ruthless side. Sony and other Bagala guardsmen began to kill those who disobeyed orders. After killing dozens of people, 3,000 people from Zhengbai Banner hurriedly dismounted.
But after such a delay, the Ming army approached before they could form a formation.
Wang Hongyu and five Sichuan Army veterans held the coffin high and roared towards Jiannu.
The soldiers of the Zhengbai Banner fired arrows one after another. However, the armor-breaking heavy arrows were almost used up on the battlefield in the past few days. The battlefield was cleaned and burned by the Ming army again, and the lost arrows were not recovered. Now they use the light arrows of the Mongols.
The Mongols were economically suppressed by the Ming Dynasty for a long time, and metal resources were scarce. Some tribes degenerated into bone arrowheads and stone arrowheads. At this time, although the Kormi tribe used iron arrowheads with the support of Hou Jin, they were all thin iron arrowheads.
Light arrow.
These light arrows swept around Wang Hongyu and other Ming troops like a storm, instantly turning them into hedgehogs.
“Brother witness!!!”
The thunderous roar shocked Hou Jinjun's whole body, while Wang Hongyu roared like a lion, with arrows stuck all over his body but was unscathed.
"All veterans in the world are heroes! I have never been afraid of anyone with a spear in my hand!"
After so many bloody battles, these Ming troops had already become well-deserved new "veterans". At this time, they all kept their arrows in their chests and continued to charge fearlessly.
"Hell!"
"You can't be shot to death! You can't be shot to death!"
The soldiers of Zhengbai Banner were horrified. How could they use the Mongolian light arrows to hurt Wang Hongyu and others who were all wearing two layers of armor?
Will the wounded soldiers who retreat early wear armor?
of course not.
Who gave those armors to?
Of course, they were given to the 3,000 Ming troops who were covering their retreat! And since there were enough ox carts and donkeys and mules, they didn’t even wear them during the march in the first two days to save energy, but now they feel full of energy wearing them!
"How can a mere Jiannu compete with our Sichuan army for glory!"
The veteran of the Sichuan Army was in the front row of the phalanx, holding his spear straight and piercing the Jiannu formation. Although one shot could only pierce one heavily armored enemy, because his comrades were reliable, they followed up with the spears behind him!
How can an enemy who is just scared and has the courage to step forward relying on Bagala's killings to compare with such a powerful army?
As soon as the slaves are engaged in melee combat, they are instantly at a disadvantage.
Even the double-armored Bajala guards were suppressed by their spears and were unable to engage in close combat.
The spears in the front row were entangled with swords and shields, and the spears in the second row were stabbed at them. Even if they exerted their strength, they could not penetrate the two layers of armor, but there was still a third row of spears coming from above their heads.
These high-raised spears cannot be stabbed, but they can be pecked. The tip of the spear is knocked down and hit on the helmet, which frightens the enemies. Some enemies looked up and were blinded by the pecks of the spear points.
Bagala was like this, and even ordinary soldiers couldn't beat him. This move of directly attacking the enemy's commander once again played a key role.
"Here comes Ben Beile!"
Huang Taiji shouted loudly, letting everyone in the flag see his figure, and took the lead in wielding his sword to fight Wang Hongyu, who was carrying the coffin.
The soldiers of the Zhengbai Banner temporarily regained their courage and continued to resist when they saw the flag leader being so heroic and fighting fiercely at the front line.
The Mongols on the west side were shocked by the bravery of the Ming army yesterday. At this time, they only dared to ride and shoot from a distance. For the Ming army with heavy armor and the flanks of the phalanx facing them, it was simply an itch.
But Zhenglan Banner from the east came over.
Mang Gurtai took the lead, and when he saw Wang Hongyu, he wanted to fight him again.
He actually rode his horse directly into the spear formation, relied on his strength advantage to push aside the spears in the front row, and steered the horses left and right to avoid the spears in the rear row.
The rest of the Zhenglan Banner's Baya La guards also rushed up to fight, destroying the front row's spear formation for a while.
"Fire the gun!"
The cannon has been blown up, but the blunderbuss and the three-eyed blunderbuss are still there!
The soldiers in the square formation were equipped with spears and fire cannons. At this time, they immediately fired their cannons at the Zhenglan flag. A large amount of gunpowder smoke filled the air, and dozens of enemy soldiers were shot down.
However, Zhenglan Qi was very brave, and relying on his heavy armor, he continued to charge forward and fight hand-to-hand despite being shot at, and the flanks of the phalanx continued to fight hard.
The Ming army consisted of nearly 3,000 people. In addition to the phalanx, there were also Jiang Bi's Wu Jing camp, 1,000 soldiers from Youyang, and 200 servants led by Zhao. They hurriedly covered it from behind.
For a moment, the battle situation was extremely tense, and there was no distinction between superiors and superiors.
Gaixin, the commanders of the two armies are fighting to the death.
Huang Taiji, who was dressed in white clothes and armor and brandished a sword, looked down on Wang Hongyu from a high position and wanted to kill Wang Hongyu.
Carrying the coffin with one hand and dancing with the hammer with the other, Wang Hongyu, whose bravery and righteousness was completely superior to his opponent, tried his best to resist and hold back Huang Taiji.
The edge of the sword was menacing, and the sword shadow was so fast that it almost covered the lake. The sharp blade struck Wang Hongyu's armor and stomach several times. It looked dangerous several times, but it was unable to break through the armor at all.
No matter how scary Huang Taiji's sword dance was, Wang Hongyu would not change his expression, and would concentrate on counterattacking with his hammer. Every time, at least the opponent would have to withdraw his move, dodge, and then prepare to attack again.
Because in terms of strength, Wang Hongyu has the upper hand.
Huang Taiji is the third Baylor he has personally fought against.
The first one is Daishan.
This man is tall and very powerful with his horse-cutting sword. However, he is no longer young and his moves are no longer as powerful, heavy, swift and powerful as in the past. Although his martial arts skills are slightly higher than his own, he was able to seize the opportunity and almost rely on him.
The physical advantage crushed him to death.
The second one is Mang Gurtai.
His power is especially superior to his own. He is reckless on the outside, but full of cleverness on the inside. Last time he didn't dare to offend his second brother Zhou Dunji, and chased him specifically. In terms of strength, he was not his opponent. Even the original owner of his own body
, and can't beat him.
The third one is that the one we are fighting now is Huang Taiji, who he wants to kill the most.
