You Shilu is a veteran. He is from Yulin Wei, Shaanxi Province. What?
The Yulin You family were local generals. The three brothers of the You family were all frontier generals at that time.
The eldest son of Yulin You is You Shiwei, the second son is You Shigong, and the third son is You Shilu. All three of them are border commanders. They all once served as the chief military officer of the town.
During the Wanli period, You Shiwei was appointed as a general in the Jianchang camp and guarded Qiangzi Road. In the second year of Chongzhen, which was at the beginning of this year, Chongzhen promoted You Shiwei to the general officer in charge of guarding Juyong and Changping.
You Shigong passed the martial arts examination during the Wanli period and was appointed as a guerrilla in Shenyang. After Yuan Yingtai replaced Xiong Tingbi, he promoted him to the post of chief military officer. In the first year of Tianqi (1621), Hou Jin soldiers attacked Shenyang and the city was destroyed. He died in the battle. Bao, the left governor.
You Shilu was a Jinshi in Zhongwu in the second year of Tianqi's reign (1622). He served as the commander-in-chief of Ningxia for seven consecutive years and was promoted to the rank of major division. He was quite good at literature.
The three brothers of the You family, with the exception of the second brother who died in the Battle of Shenyang and died in Liaodong, the eldest brother and the third brother both resisted Li Zicheng and died for their country in the 16th year of Chongzhen. They can be regarded as loyal and loyal. At that time, Yulin City was captured and sent to Xi'an. When Li Zicheng arrived, Li Zicheng personally persuaded him to surrender and cursed Li Zicheng until he died.
There is a famous saying in the late Ming Dynasty that the great soldiers of the world came out of Yulin. Yulin Town is located on the border and often fights with Mongolia. The people are accustomed to fighting. Yulin soldiers can often beat ten with one, and they are famous all over the world. What?
This is why at the beginning of Chongzhen's accession to the throne, Wei Zhongxian was in power and the emperor was in danger. However, due to a pay mutiny in Yulin Town, Tu Shanyong had to deal with it personally.
At this time, You Shilu looked across the Yellow River in shock as the cavalrymen of the Jia Ding Regiment chased and killed the allied troops of the western Ordos tribes that were running around as if they were in an uninhabited land, chopping melons and vegetables.
Yulin Zhenbing was as elite as Guan Ning's cavalry in the Nine Sides. They could not achieve such a one-sided crushing in the melee with Mongolia for more than two hundred years.
The Ming army on the opposite side wore strange colorful clothes, brandished sabers with gauntlets, and slashed fiercely. They faced off against the Mongols head-on, without any tricks.
The superb riding and sword skills they displayed dazzled the Yulin soldiers.
The horses of these people are more than a foot taller than the Mongolian horses, and they often need to bend down to chop down their opponents. They are condescending and have an advantage. Moreover, they are tall and strong, and they do not look like they are from the Han people.
What You Shilu didn't know was that these servants were all selected when they were fifteen or sixteen years old. After entering the new military camp, they underwent ten kilometers of armed cross-country and intensive physical training every day. What?
Then there was plenty of meat and calories every day, and even radioactively sterilized raw beef mixed with rice every day. Yang Fan spent a lot of money for them. They didn't know how many bullocks they had captured on the grassland.
Their stature and muscles swelled like balloons. Based on later research, Yang Fan knew that the Han and the Germanic people were the two tallest ethnic groups when they were well-nourished. The average height of the Germanic people was 18 and the average height of the Han people was 18
The physical fitness of the Han people is actually among the best in the world. At the same time, the average IQ ranks second only to the Jews. The Jews were selected under special circumstances. The brain capacity of the Han people is one cubic inch larger than that of other races. The body is fully evolved, has almost no body hair or body odor, and can squat completely.
After Yang Fan spent a lot of money and made cruel war choices, he finally reaped fruitful results.
Each of these officer seeds has cultural knowledge, is literate, has studied modern military drills, and knows simple mathematics. They are also excellent in riding, fighting, and firearms shooting.
In their opinion, these Mongolian herdsmen are no different from a group of ragged rabble.
In the eyes of these servants, their fighting power is inferior to that of Haraqin and Duoyan. After all, those who often fight Jiannu still have two skills.
The Mongols were completely confused at this time. Their horses were weak and they could not run. They were facing the enemy directly. Under the wall, their scattered cavalry were in formation. Each of them had to face three or four people. In the blink of an eye, they were defeated.
Cut into several pieces.
No matter how good a person's swordsmanship is, he can't stop three or four sabers from attacking at the same time.
According to the terrain, these cavalrymen will line up in a row of eleven people on the wall, sometimes into a wedge formation, sometimes into a diamond formation, and sometimes into a rhombus formation.
Two horizontal lines.
They have become very comfortable with changes in team combat formations.
The Mongols were very rough in formations. Even in the Genghis Khan era, all they could do was form various formations based on hundreds of men. There was no concept of squad combat at all.
As soon as these cavalry find that there is a possibility of the Mongols gathering and converging, they will give up the current pursuit target. Instead, they will attack in a wedge formation, break them up, and then quickly form three triangle formations to continue chasing the fleeing enemies.
.
Wu Rigenda Lai was going crazy. He shouted desperately, trying to gather the Mongols. They suffered a lot from such a random fight. However, every time they gathered, they would be scattered by the green cavalry charging at high speed.
What
At this time, he also saw that in terms of individual soldier quality, these Ming soldiers in colorful clothes were much higher than them.
These are the elite soldiers of the Ming Dynasty, but they cannot be dealt with by these herders' levies.
The bows and arrows they were proud of had lost their effect. Their green clothes seemed to have plates inserted into them, which could completely block the shots of bows and arrows. These soft armors also had a good buffering effect.
If you try to shoot them on the head and neck, there will be ferocious bird-beak helmets and pig-head helmets.
The Mongolians had never seen such an ugly and terrifying helmet, with two slits for eyes and a pointed beak or pig's mouth, like a monster from the underworld.
Hitting it with a mace will have no use except for sending out a stream of sparks.
The huge helmet was obviously much bigger than the head. The Mongolians also noticed it. Even if it was smashed, it couldn't even touch the head. What?
Wurigenda Lai even saw a 1.9-meter-tall warrior hit a green-skinned cavalryman on the head with a hammer. His pig-head helmet was flattened.
The expected brain bursting and falling off the horse did not happen. It was just that the guy's movements stopped for a moment.
The guy was obviously stunned, but a few seconds later, the guy furiously chopped off the arm holding the hammer.
Wu Rigenggai worked hard and finally gathered more than 500 people among the rebel army. At this time, he discovered Yang Fan, because he was always surrounded by about 100 elite guards. This was the only one of this group of cavalry.
Always a piece of the group.
Although Yang Fan was also wearing a green camouflage anti-stab uniform and a beaked helmet, the cavalry behind him raised black flags and wrote: "Governor-General Jingying Bingma Rongzheng" "General Yang of the Western Expedition" "Imperial Envoy Control"
"Four Towns" "Sitong Zhi, commander of Jinyi's army".
Yang Fan looked majestic, holding a short hammer in his hand, surrounded by people in front and behind, monitoring the entire battlefield.
Wu Ri Geng Lai gasped, it turned out to be him. What?
No wonder three thousand men defeated his nearly nine thousand men. Although he was located on the border, he had heard about the fact that Uncle Dingyuan had a cavalry. At that time, he took it as a joke.
With Ming Dynasty's conduct, it would be strange if he could produce iron cavalry.
However, at this moment, he wanted to bang his head against the wall. If he had known that it was Yang Fan himself who was chasing him, he would never have rested by the river for the night. Soldiers are very fast, and on the battlefield, sometimes an hour can determine the outcome.
.At this time, it was impossible for him to cross the river.
