Chapter seven hundred and fiftieth eighth chapter Ru Ning army travel
The musketeers in the Qing army were fine, but the archers were a little struggling. After more than ten rounds of bow shooting, except for a few who were suspected of taking Dali Pills, the muscles in the other archers' arms were sore and no longer strong.
The method is to fully draw the bow and shoot powerful arrows.
Seeing that the Qing army's firepower had weakened, the Ming army's pace quickened again. But when the Ming army passed two-thirds of the troops, Huang Taiji raised his arm high and waved it down hard, and the drummer behind him immediately started beating
War drums were beating, and all the Qing troops immediately let out excited shouts.
First, the cavalrymen carrying flags ran forward. Their horses were not fast, they just trotted out of the formation, but when they moved, the sky collapsed. The Qing cavalry brigade that had been gathering momentum there,
Start moving all forward.
At first, they controlled the horse's speed and walked slowly, then quickly, and adjusted the rhythm of the horse. Only the rumble of hoofbeats was heard, and the cavalry's linear formation was like a wall, slowly pressing forward. That's it.
A standard cavalry charge. With a sharp whistle, all the Qing cavalry immediately accelerated to a sprint and charged towards both sides of the Ming army.
The Qing cavalry turned out to be behind the musketeers and archers, only a few hundred steps away from the Ming army. The clatter of the hooves of tens of thousands of horses had drowned out all the sounds on the battlefield, and the entire battlefield was shaking.
, the ground also made a trembling sound.
When the Ming army rushed through the ditch, their intention to fight to the death had completely relaxed. The Ming army's array, which had some appearance just now, was completely scattered. But the Qing army's cavalry was recharging its energy and preparing for attack. So this
When he rushed out, he hit the Ming army when it was at its weakest and most confused. It was like hitting a snake seven inches away, hitting the Ming army's fatal vitality at once.
The chaotic Ming army was even more scattered. They were unable to form an effective formation to fight, and even the Ming troops on the far side of the two sides were unable to spread out to avoid the impact of the cavalry.
There was no other way to escape except running forward. As soon as they turned, the soldiers of the Ming army would be pushed down and chopped down by the people behind them, and those who fell on the ground would be trampled to death by their companions immediately.
Without any obstruction, the cavalry of the Qing army collided with the soldiers of the Ming army. Some of the Ming army soldiers at the front were directly knocked away. What was even worse was the people who fell to the ground after being hit. They had no time to get up.
He was trampled to death by the cavalry behind him. The Ming troops on both sides were squeezing towards the middle, so that the people in the middle were already rubbing shoulders and had no room to move. In this way, the impact and screams were overwhelming.
But this was not over yet. Seeing that the horse speed had slowed down, the Qing army's cavalry drew out their weapons and slashed at the crowd below. No one was resisting. All the Ming army soldiers were thinking about running away, and at this time, they were dying.
Easier than mowing the grass.
There were many soldiers of the Ming army squeezed in the middle, so they pushed forward with all their strength. Some saw that the way forward was impassable, so they turned around and ran back. After the Qing army hacked and killed for a while, the Ming army's queue finally had space, and they heard "
Boom——!" With a sound, the last remaining Ming troops scattered in all directions.
Many of these scattered Ming troops were killed by the Qing cavalry on both sides, but some of them were lucky enough to rush into the night and leave the Shura field. In such a short battle, the Ming army left more than 20,000 people.
The soldiers lost their lives, but only a few escaped.
"Ming Jin!" Seeing that the battle was coming to an end, Huang Taiji ordered the troops to retreat.
"Your Majesty! Don't you want to pursue him?" Oboi asked strangely.
"Let the ambush athletes take care of those who escaped! Let's not worry about them." Huang Taiji, who was sure of the victory, was in a very happy mood. He smiled and said: "After working hard all night, it's time for us to rest. You and Tan Tai
Lead eight thousand people to stay here to prevent the Ming army from escaping from here. Sony! You go back with me first!"
Although he was in high spirits, Huang Taiji also felt a little tired. He had a nosebleed just now. And these Qing troops who had been fighting for half the night were also very tired, and people could support them. But horses couldn't bear it, so Huang Taiji couldn't stand it.
No more cover-ups and let these Qing troops take time to rest.
Although a large number of Ming troops escaped, Huang Taiji was not sure whether other Ming troops would continue to flee, so he left Obai's eight thousand troops here to prevent any fish from slipping through the net.
However, so many Ming troops were defeated in this battle, so the victory of the Qing army was already determined. Even if there was another battle, the Ming army would never be able to overturn the situation. Therefore, Huang Taiji did not need to command anymore. He had to
I took my soldiers back to the camp to rest.
Before leaving, Huang Taiji proudly pointed to the battlefield and said to the people around him: "This is a national war, and the overall situation has been decided!" A burst of cheerful laughter suddenly sounded around him...
When all the Runing troops left the camp and formed a peripheral convoy outside the camp, and the soldiers marched inside, half an hour had passed. Although Wu Shigong was anxious, he still insisted on not finishing the team.
Don’t leave. At this time, you must not be impatient and make mistakes. You would rather sharpen the knife and chop wood than let the slightest flaw be exposed, causing irreparable consequences.
After the formation of the team was completed, the Runing Army finally embarked on their way back. However, after walking for a while, some scattered Ming Army soldiers gathered around them. Those were the stragglers. When they saw the large group of Runing Army, they must have wanted to
Come and walk together.
Regarding those soldiers, Wu Shigong did not refuse to recruit them. However, he divided the soldiers into two categories. One category was without weapons, which showed that those soldiers were not soldiers, so Wu Shigong threw them into the engineering corps.
Auxiliary soldiers; the other type is those who do not forget to bring their weapons when they escape. Such soldiers can still play some role now and can at least perform some low-intensity combat missions, so Wu Shigong transferred some personal soldiers from the personal soldiers to serve as officers.
Group those people into temporary units.
After such a gathering, by the time he approached the first trench, Wu Shigong had gathered more than 400 auxiliary soldiers and more than 300 combat soldiers. However, as a result, the Runing Army's marching speed became even slower.
When the Runing Army walked about a mile away from the first trench, they were suddenly stopped by vehicles and debris scattered on the battlefield. The Ming Army's vehicles and the baggage they carried could not pass through the trench at all, so the front
Ming troops from every town they passed by unanimously abandoned these vehicles and baggage.
"Hurry up and see if there is anything useful. Harness the mules and horses to the good carts and take all these things away!" Wu Shigong was very happy to see the hunter, and he still did not forget to take advantage of it at this time.
