Chapter 41 Battle of Neiqiu 2
Du Du looked at the horses that fell on both sides of the array, and those warriors under his command who were killed and injured, and his heart twitched. How could this battle be like this? Usually, it can be said to be a tried-and-test way to deal with the Ming army. Today, I met this criminal thief army. Why didn't it work? And why is the firearm of this thief's army so sharp? Isn't it just some rags? Why did you fight so far and so hard?
Seeing that the attack of the two-wing cavalry was ineffective, more cavalry were going to die under the platoon gun of the Xingtian Army. Du Du had no choice but to order the two-wing cavalry to withdraw and rely on armored soldiers to attack the array to see if they could repel this thief army. After all, their Qing soldiers were much more brave than the Han people. They fought uprightly. If you don't believe it, they could fight. Destroy this army of thieves.
But Du Du soon found that his idea had failed again. When his armored soldiers began to enter a distance of 70 steps from the enemy, these firemen of the Xingtian Army began to breathe fire again. In a short time, the armored soldiers with shields in the front row fell to the ground one after another. Du Du was completely shocked this time. He didn't expect that the shield could not stop the thieves' thieves at such a long distance. This time exceeded his understanding of the birds. You know, he himself fought against the Ming army in the Ming army in the first two years, and he was hit by two Ming army's bird bullets, and that time it was about 30 steps of the Ming army. He was hit by fire from the distance below, and he was wearing two layers of armor at that time. After being shot, he had nothing wrong with him. He led his troops to enter the Ming army and killed several firearms of the Ming army with his own hands, but today it seems that the firearm of this thief's army is too sharp! This is a distance of sixty or seventy steps, and the skinned wooden shield can't stop the bullets of the thief's army. This is a bad thing.
Everyone had to admit that the toughness of the Tataritan soldiers and the military discipline of the Tatari army. Before receiving the order to retreat, although a large number of Tataritan armored soldiers saw that the people in front of them were knocked down by the Xing Tianjun's bullets, they did not stop moving forward or turn around to escape, but continued to howl and charge forward and pick them up from the ground. He raised the shield of his dead companion, covered his body and continued to charge.
A group of people were knocked down, and another group of people rushed up to pick up their tattered shields and continue to charge. The archers desperately shot arrows at the Xing Tianjun behind the shield, trying to suppress the fire of the Xing Tian Army, but the distance of 50 steps was still a little too far for their bows, even if they could reach the punishment. The arrows of the heavenly army basically don't have much power, and this Xingtian army soldier is also wearing armor. As long as the arrows are not the key, they can't be defeated. This result is desperate. Battals of batches of Tatar foot armor soldiers have also entered the 50 steps of death, and batches are overthrown. On the ground.
At this time, Xing Tianjun's gunners can no longer aim and launch carefully, because the continuous firing has filled them with gunpowder smoke in front of them, which seriously affects their aiming. Although the wind is not too small and constantly blows away these white smoke, it is still shrouded in more white smoke rising from the mouth. Xing Tian The gunners of the army can only shoot forward with their instincts. As for whether they can't fight the enemy, it is no longer their concern. As long as the officers do not order them to stop shooting, they will continue to launch in turn until the paper shells on their bodies are fired.
During this period, there were also very few explosion accidents, and some firearms were blown up with black faces and blood on their faces. However, no one can take care of it at this time. It's just mechanically launched and retreated to load, because this group of Tatari soldiers fought against the generals of the Xingtian Army. Speaking of which, it is also a rare tenacity. They refused to retreat after such a fight. They still rushed forward one after another. Listening to their screams and screams made people feel a little creepy, so the soldiers of Xing Tianjun also began to be nervous.
The two sides shot their bullets and arrows on each other on the battlefield. Clusters of arrows fell on the perimeter and inside of the Xingtian Army's array, while rows of bullets flew into the Tats's array and knocked over the rows of Tatsant soldiers to the ground. In the end, the Tatsmen still rushed to Xingtian at a huge price. In front of the military.
At this time, Du Du's heart was about to bleed. He watched hundreds of warriors under his command and was killed between the two armies in vain, but he did not dare to order the army. Several times he couldn't help but want to withdraw, but he was restrained by him. The flagmen watched his companions being killed one by one. He cried and begged Du Du to withdraw his troops, but he was also shouted back by Du Du Du. Du is a veteran general. He knew that if he ordered the withdrawal of troops, the battle would be defeated, and the vest soldiers and armored soldiers who died in front of him were equivalent to death in vain. He must insist on defeating this terrible enemy, otherwise the one behind them. Many captured slaves and belongings may be taken away by this terrible thieves. He can't afford such a loss. He has to fight for it.
At this time, Luo Li and Li Xin's faces were also solemn. They were also shocked by the fierceness of the Tats. No wonder that the officials and soldiers of the Ming Dynasty have been repeatedly defeated against the Tats, not to mention the gap in equipment training. On this alone, the Ming army has no reason to be invincible.
Seeing a large number of Tarot soldiers rush to the front of the Xingtian Army, Luo Li roared, "The bayonet in his hand!"
His military order was immediately passed down by the officers one by one. At this time, the fireman's face was full of traces of smoke and fire, and each of them became a leopard's face. After listening to the order, they immediately stopped shooting, and immediately pulled out the short blades from their waists, and began to click these three edges or double-edged short. The blade was stuck at the front end of the pipe, which had begun to become hot, and it was firmly stuck on the pipe. Then one by one, the right hand grasped the back bracket, and the left hand rested on the handguard under the body, and stared forward one by one.
At this time, the Tatari soldiers roared and rushed into the thick smoke and appeared in front of the soldiers of the Xingtian army. Almost all of them roared and killed each other. They struggled to stand up the long gun in their hands or the gun with a short blade and stabbed at the other side.
The most tragic short soldiers joined each other. In an instant, there was a piece of blood at the intersection of the two armies. At the same time, there was also a tragic howl of countless people dying.
Li Xiaosan held a shield in his left arm and squatted under the long gun with a steel knife in his right hand. In front of him were the short legs of the like a forest. He squeezed in front of him, roaring, howling, waving their weapons, and slashing the spears of these Xingtian Army who stabbed them in front of him. Some spears were The Tataritan soldier cut off, and the long gunman then threw his hand and retreated. Another long gunman took his place and continued to stab forward with a long gun. The Tatariman soldiers were stabbed to the ground by long guns one after another. Some of the hand soldiers desperately threw out the knives and guns in their hands before they died, and cut them on the face of the Xingtian Army long gunners on the opposite side. The long gunners were One by one, they are also falling down, and then there will be long gunmen to take their place.
The long gunner has always been shrouded in the aura of the fireman. Many times they have no chance to kill the enemy and make contributions. They can only watch the fireman overturn the enemy from a long distance, smelling the pungent smell of gunshot smoke in the air but have no choice. For this reason, the long gunner feels a little It's unfair that they all want to turn into fire soldiers, but today they have a place to use it. The Tats soldiers finally rushed to them in front of them in the rain of fire weapons today, so it's time for them to show their bravery.
One by one, the long gunmen roared and struggled forward to carry out the thrust action. What they practice every day is either the queue change, or the same thrust action, or at most, the action of the thrust in the running. They have to complete such a simple action thousands of times a day, which has given them a condition. Reflection, the assassination action one by one is extremely fierce and accurate. They mostly choose the enemy's most deadly and weakest neck or facial thrusts. As long as one shot passes, the lightning-like action does not give the enemy a chance to dodge at all, and it will pierce into the enemy's key, and their action of drawing guns is also extremely fast. It's like lightning. Although the Tatars' personal combat skills absolutely surpass any soldiers of the Xingtian Army, in such a collective battle, they can't show their super combat effectiveness. They can only fight against the long gunmen of the Xing Tianjun. On the contrary, they are at a backward position, and they are compared with the long guns of the Xing Tianjun. The long guns used by other armies should grow a little, but it was so long that Xing Tianjun took a big advantage. Many pretentious Handar soldiers can't figure out why the opponent is just such a simple assassination action to the extreme. They can't avoid it. If they put an order, they have a There are more than a hundred ways to kill the criminal thief who stabbed them in front of them, but there is no if in the world. When they think of this, they often have a blood hole in their neck or eyes and chests. The severe pain has made them lose all the ability to resist, and they can only The help screamed and fell into the pool of blood.
Some Tatari soldiers tried to squat down and drill into the Xingtian Army's long gun forest and attacked these Xingtian Army's long gunmen from below. However, after squatting down, they found that the knife cards of Xing Tianjun, who had already squatted under the long gun forest, were staring at them with extremely cold eyes, often It was a Tarot soldier who got under the long gun forest, and several Xing Tianjun's knife players squatted and rushed over. They stabbed them to death or cut them under the long gun forest. Even if the Tarots were strong and unparalleled, they could not beat the four hands with their fists. They could often only moan and over with the knife. Although they also killed and injured some of Xing Tianjun's knife players, In the end, he still couldn't kill the legs of those long gunmen, and they were blocked under the long gun forest...
