Chapter four hundred and seventy seventh small formation
The cavalrymen who fled in the face of the bayonet array during the Battle of Dabishan were severely punished by Huang Taiji after the war. The leader of the cavalry, Mele Zhangjing, was beheaded. From then on, the Qing cavalrymen did not dare to retreat lightly.
This time in this decisive battle, the Qing cavalry did not stop in front of the bayonet array. Only a loud bang was heard, and the cavalry in the front row rushed forward and crashed into the bayonet array.
The bayonet array was very dense, and each cavalry had to face six bayonets. The horses rushing in front were undoubtedly stabbed hard by the bayonets. The hard muscles of the war horses could not stop the sharpness of the crucible steel, and the horses' blood surged.
Shoot. The mournful sounds of war horses could be heard everywhere. These seriously injured horses would not survive.
Even the knights on horseback were severely injured in front of the bayonet array. There were always one or two bayonets thrust forward to stab the knight on horseback. Almost none of the more than 400 knights in the first row who rushed into the bayonet array were spared.
They were all pierced by sharp bayonets, and they screamed and fell down.
But the war horses rushing into the formation at high speed also severely impacted the bayonet array. A war horse weighs easily 700 to 800 pounds. When it rushes in at high speed, it is like a chariot coming towards you. Even if the bayonet is stabbed into the body,
The momentum remained unabated, and he violently knocked away the soldiers in the bayonet array. Once the soldiers were touched by the horses, they were knocked to both sides.
Some soldiers of the Huben Division were hit head-on by their horses, flew back three or four meters, fell hard to the ground, and were even beaten to death.
What also hurt people were the spears and tiger spears of the cavalry. The Qing cavalry was like a fist hitting the glass hard. Although they were badly injured and bruised and bleeding, they did smash the glass hard.
Before dying, the cavalry pierced the bodies of the soldiers of the Tiger Division in the front row with their long weapons, and used the momentum of the horse to break through the body armor, severely injuring hundreds of Tiger Soldiers.
This was a naked sacrifice of life for life. In just an instant, thousands of soldiers from both sides died.
And this was just the beginning. More and more cavalry rushed up from behind and crashed into the gap between the cavalry in front. The bayonet array was already messy in the front impact, and it began to become chaotic when it received subsequent impacts. Chapter 1
When the second row of cavalry attacks the bayonet formation, they may only have to face three or four bayonets.
The war horses were stabbed with bayonets and screamed miserably. The soldiers of the Tiger Division in the front row were also knocked away and scattered, and were assassinated by the cavalry weapons.
There were too many Qing troops. After the second row of cavalry rushed in from the gap, the third row of cavalry surged up again. The horses in front were killed by bayonets and rolled on the ground. The third row of cavalry even jumped over the ground.
The obstacles jumped from the air into the bayonet array.
Nearly half a ton of war horses and cavalry pressed down from the air. The war horse collided with the soldiers of the Huben Division who were unable to evade, knocking the soldiers under the horses. The war horses jumped down and turned over, and the cavalry on the horses fell from their horses.
He fell down, fell over in the bayonet array, and was exposed to the bayonet.
But they no longer worried about the threat of bayonets, because the bayonet array collapsed.
Endless cavalry were still pressing forward, constantly attacking the increasingly chaotic bayonet array. The front of the circular formation could no longer be defended, and the front of the Huben Division was completely defeated.
Lei San stabbed to death a cavalryman who was charging into the formation. The cavalryman knocked away three of his soldiers and scattered the already chaotic bayonet formation even further. Full of anger, Lei San stabbed the cavalryman into the right waist with his sword.
He fiercely withdrew the bayonet with the blood groove, blood spattered from the cavalryman's wound, and blood sprayed all over Lei San's face.
However, Lei San's efforts failed to save Lei San's platoon. Another Tatar cavalry bumped into Lei San's body. Lei San felt a huge force coming from his body armor, and his
The body was like a kite with its string cut off, flying straight back.
Lei San flew two meters and fell heavily to the ground. He felt the world was turned upside down and his blood was boiling. He didn't react for a long time.
When he finally regained some mobility, he looked towards the battle line and saw that the bayonet array had collapsed.
Lei San's face turned pale, knowing that the platoon he led was finally finished. He staggered up and ran towards the south.
The soldiers of the Huben Division on the front were killed in an instant, and more than a thousand were stabbed to death. They did not dare to fight anymore. The soldiers lost their formation and collapsed to the south like a tide.
This was the first collapse in the history of the Huben Division, even if it was only a partial collapse.
Huang Taiji observed the cavalry battle from his chariot. When he saw the cavalry smashing the front of Huben Division, his face flushed with excitement.
Finally, after sacrificing thousands of Qing warriors, he finally saw the collapse of the Huben Division. Huang Taiji's hands trembled slightly, this was a decisive victory! He seemed to have seen the cavalry chasing and killing the Huben Division in the wilderness.
The scene of soldiers and the victory of this decisive battle.
If the Huben Division was defeated and more than 40,000 cavalry supported the two wings, how could the rest of the Ming army withstand it?
Did you win this decisive battle in which the fate of the country was at stake?
Huang Taiji was a little out of breath because he was so excited. He lowered his head and coughed a few times, then quickly raised his head and looked ahead.
Ahead, the Qing cavalry had completely overwhelmed the bayonet array and began to chase the fleeing Ming army.
Fan Wencheng breathed a long sigh of relief, bowed to Huang Taiji and said: "Congratulations, Your Majesty, the warriors of the Qing Dynasty defeated Li Zhi's firecrackers!"
Huang Taiji looked at Fan Wencheng and laughed. He was extremely excited. Even though he was usually indifferent to emotions and anger, a smile appeared on his face at this time.
However, his smile only stayed on his face for a few seconds before it stiffened.
Only the crackling sound of gunfire was heard, and bullets were shot out from nowhere. The cavalry who were chasing Li Zhi's defeated troops seemed to have been swept by the scythe of death. They fell off their horses one after another and fell to the ground when Huben's division returned.
The center of the formation.
Impossible. Li Zhi's Tiger Army has obviously been defeated. Where can there be fire rifle soldiers shooting?
Huang Taiji raised the monocular as quickly as possible and desperately searched for the source of the bullet in front.
This is impossible!
Huang Taiji used a telescope to search desperately in front of the cavalry, and finally saw where the bullets were coming from. Seeing the Ming troops who kept shooting, Huang Taiji felt as if he had been struck by lightning, and his blood-red face turned pale in an instant.
The Huben Division collapsed frontally, but the other three fronts remained strong.
The morale of Division Tiger Ben is unbelievably tenacious.
Behind the front of the collapsed Huben Division, the six thousand soldiers on both sides of the Huben Division had retreated and formed a formation. The soldiers on both wings formed six small loop formations. Each loop formation had a thousand infantrymen, a dozen cannons, and a
One after another, they lined up on both sides of the original large circle formation, ready to stand ready.
The two small zigzag formations at the front were only 150 meters away from the collapsed front, and had already begun to shoot down the Qing cavalry.
In the wilderness, the roars of these soldiers as they fired resounded again:
