Chapter 32 Final Battle 3

However, because the enemy's rowing carts were densely arranged and under long-range shooting, they really destroyed many rowing vehicles and killed and injured many enemy soldiers. However, as the enemy pushed the rowing carts closer and closer, this provided an excellent aiming target for the gunners of the Yu family army. They began to change from the general aiming just now to refinement. The way to aim.

The artillery is very clear about the threat of the chariots. Once Jiannu pushes a large number of chariots to the front and vicinity of the Yujia army, it will cause great losses to the army. Jiannu can rely on the cover of these chariots and launch rockets behind the chariots to the front line of the family army, or simply use the chariots as a cover. , launch a cavalry charge, which will cause losses and even danger to the family army.

Therefore, when Jiannu's chariots were getting closer and closer to the domestic military front, the artillerymen also began to consciously focus on these remaining chariots.

The gun commanders threw off their cotton-padded coats, pulled the gunners responsible for aiming aside, and personally took the sights. At this time, the artillery of each battalion began to concentrate their fire on these chariots.

When the artillery of the family army really began to accurately aim at these cars, Jiannu knew what accurate aiming was.

shells roared out. Although the hit rate was less than 20%, or even only about 1st, it still smashed many trolleys on the spot.

Even if Jiannu's soldiers were not afraid of death and continued to push the row cars forward, under such dense artillery fire, their row cars were still smashed one by one by the Yu family army. At this time, the whole front battlefield was full of broken pieces of row cars, and messy wood was thrown everywhere.

When Jiannu finally pushed a small number of chariots within 200 steps in front of the Yujia military front, only a quarter of the chariots they launched when they set out have not arrived. The rest were either destroyed by the Yujia military artillery fire, or they broke their axles and lay down. There were also a small number of chariots by those people and The clothes were abandoned on the battlefield, and the remaining cars could no longer form a complete line of defense.

But even so, under the more accurate shelling of the family army, these carts were still constantly destroyed, and the people who pushed the carts were killed and injured to the extreme.

Those Jiannu who couldn't help fighting had to fight in person at this time, and also joined the ranks of carts to push the cart to continue moving forward.

But at this time, the Yu family's infantry also began to be allowed to fire, lifting their rifles in their hands and pointed the black muzzle in the direction of the enemy.

When a row of shocking gunshots sounded, some Jiannu, who had no time to hide behind the row car, were turned to the ground on the spot.

But even so, these Jiannu still showed a quite tenacious style. Many fierce Jiannu soldiers are still pushing the car forward, but at this distance, their behavior is almost equivalent to taking the initiative to die in front of the cannons of the relatively high accuracy of the Yu family army. .

If these 12-pound howitzers can't accurately hit these car, it is repreted that 500 meters can't hit them. It can also be said that the accuracy of the smoothbore gun is low, but if it can't hit targets such as 200 meters, then Yu Xiaotian should go down and strip off their trousers and beat the artillery one by one. It stopped.

So at this time, the artillery is simply playing with the target. Even if they can't do one shot, they can lift one with almost two or three cannons.

Many times, you don't even need to hit directly at all. You just need to hit the cannonball in front of the car. With the jump effect, the shell can destroy the car, so at this point, Jiannu's can's car really walk.

Dorgon looked at the carts he had finally made up, as if they had been smashed by others. The number of cars was getting less and less, and he saw that they were about to be knocked out by others. At this time, he no longer dared to hesitate.

Immediately, he ordered the most elite cavalry of more than 10,000 slaves, including nearly half of the Mongolian cavalry, who had been arranged in the future. At this time, they would immediately launch an assault while their cars had not been knocked out by the cannons of the Yu family army. Scattered in the front line of the family army.

As a veteran on the battlefield, of course, Dorman also saw the performance of Yu's army's combat effectiveness, which largely depends on their array. As long as their front is shattered, the Yu's army will lose its organization. Once Yu's army loses organization, then their slave army will have the opportunity to slaughter it all. Net.

If this only opportunity is spared, he will launch a general cavalry attack after all their rolling carts are knocked out. At that time, under the intensive artillery fire of the family army, his cavalry will really be slaughtered in front of the two armies like chickens and dogs.

These already prepared slave cavalry immediately roared in unison, like a group of beasts, shouting one by one, and began to urge their horses to rush into the battlefield.

The Jiannu cavalry and the Mongolian cavalry are very experienced. When they first urged the war horse to move forward, they were not eager to raise the speed of the war horse to the highest, but first moved forward slowly, accelerated to fast forward, and then turned to a small step jog to gradually improve the speed of the horse.

Doing this can ensure the physical strength of the war horse. In the final sprint stage, there is enough physical strength to improve to the maximum speed, and the other can also warm up the war horse first to improve their excitement and make it easier to control.

This battlefield cavalry charge is not a speed race. Whoever starts fast will take advantage of it. The Mongolian horse itself is not tall. The main advantage is not speed, but their endurance. If you want these horses to run at full speed, in a short time, these horses will seriously consume their physical strength, slow down, and wait for the enemy. In front of the army, it lost its strongest impact.

The biggest advantage of cavalry is their impact. A horse and an armored cavalry weigh about 700 catties. Even a thin war horse weigh 500 catties. In addition to the weight of the cavalry themselves and armored weight, there are at least 600 catties, and even some strong and good The horse can weigh up to 700 pounds.

Even if an infantry is armored, it weighs less than 200 catties at most. What's more, the cavalry also has the advantage of speed. Once it launches a charge, it carries so much kinetic energy that even the strongest infantry can't bear it. Even if the cavalry does not use knives and guns to kill the enemy, If you just use a war horse to collide, you can also kill the heavy infantry in heavy armor.

So the cavalry relies on their impact speed, so that they can give full play to their strongest advantage. Therefore, the Jiannu cavalry and Mongolian cavalry who are well aware of this way certainly know what to do to make their horses play their strongest performance.

So more than 10,000 cavalry roared to urge the war horses and began to rush into the battlefield. Following the infantry in front of them, they began to charge towards the front of the Yu family army.

The shock caused by the scene of tens of thousands of horses galloping is unimaginable by many people who have never seen such a scene, but today Dorge can be said to have spent a lot of money and almost all the most elite vest soldiers on the battlefield. It can be said that they have done their best to make achievements in a battle and can destroy the battle of the family army.

The tens of thousands of cavalry were involved in the battlefield like a dark cloud. At this time, the tens of thousands of slave cavalry and Mongolian cavalry summoned up all their courage, red eyes, holding all kinds of weapons in their hands, shouting like a group of beasts, urging the war horses to gradually accelerate.

The soldiers of the Yu family army watched a large number of Jiannu cavalry rushing into the battlefield from afar. At this time, the ground under their feet also began to feel a slight tremor. Tens of thousands of iron hooves hit the ground, and the vibration was so great that the fine dust on the ground trembled slightly. The Jiannu cavalry had not yet rushed to the front. At that time, the dust on the ground on the battlefield had been slightly raised, as if the ground was shrouded in a layer of mist.

All the family's faces became solemn. There were few victorious battles between infantry and cavalry in history, especially when the strength of the two armies was similar, and there were almost no examples of infantry victories.

However, today, the number of infantry of Yu's army is not far from the number of cavalry thrown into the battlefield at one time by the other party's Jiannu. Can they withstand the impact of such a large number of cavalry by Jiannu without shelter and defense facilities? Many Yu's soldiers will begin to feel uncertain.

Many soldiers involuntarily clenched the weapons in their hands, and their bodies seemed to be uncontrollable, moving their center of gravity forward slightly, as if to do a great force to withstand the impact of the enemy cavalry.

Meng Fei left Yu Xiaotian at this moment, took a sentry guard, rode back and forth in front of the battle, and shouted at all the Yu's soldiers who lined up in front of the battle, "Brothers, the victory and defeat are all here! Don't panic! My family's army has always been invincible in the world. What is the Jiannu cavalry? Hold on! Hold on to me! The spearman came forward! Standard hollow phalanx! Ready! ......”

After the battalion commander's order, he did not hesitate to immediately order and begin to adjust the arms under his command. The limited knife hands and long gunmen in the battalion were immediately transferred to the front. At the same time, they ordered * hands to begin to prepare for bayonet, staring one by one, waiting for the Jiannu cavalry to come.

The long gunmen took a deep breath one after another, squatted in front of the battle, stepped on the barrel with their feet, held the barrel of the gun in one hand, tilted the sharp long gun straight to the oblique front, pointed the sharp tip of the gun, just in the direction of the attack of the Jiannu cavalry, and it was exactly the position of the enemy's horse's chest, in the infantry The outermost layer of the array forms a dense two- to three-layer gun forest.
