Chapter 2097 confrontation(1/2)
The sky is gloomy, making the whole world lose its color.
A huge convoy had arrived at the foot of Huangluling. Because the road was too steep, there was a great risk of carriage going up the mountain, so Lin Weiran also chose to ride a horse.
"Okay, I can't even ride a horse, please let go!" Lin Xuran was quite helpless at Lin Fu who was about to lead his horse for him, but waved his hand.
As his status rose, not to mention how the people outside tried every means to curry favor with him, even Lin Fu and others regarded him as a jade artifact that could not withstand collisions.
"Uncle Nineteen, I still let me hold it, I'm scared!" Lin Fu said with his hands holding the horse's reins tightly, his eyes full of begging.
Lin Qingran waved his hand again without hesitation, and after taking the reins of the horse, he slapped his horse and headed towards the mountain road.
Lin Fu also hurried up, carefully preventing Lin Weiran from falling off the horse, and also sent someone to watch out for movement around him.
Ali followed closely behind, but she was not worried about Lin Qiran's riding support, but noticed that there seemed to be something strange behind her, and she couldn't help but become alert immediately.
She learned Hu Niu's physiognomy, but knew that this man might encounter an unexpected situation, so she was extremely careful along the way, and even discovered an assassin who wanted to murder the man in advance.
"Dongweng, you seem to be still worried about the war?" Wang Zhideng looked at Lin Qiran with a frown, but followed Lin Qiran in parallel.
Lin Xuran glanced at Wang Zhideng and nodded softly and said, "If what I expected was not bad, the battle in Dawu Town will also start, but I always feel that things will not go too smoothly!"
"Dong Weng has made every plan and uses troops as if he is a god. This time, three armies have gathered together, so he will definitely be able to defeat Altan's army!" Wang Zhideng disagreed and said optimistically.
Lin Junran said bitterly when facing such compliments: "Although my always-official philosophy is that 'War cannot defeat the strong in war, and some are strong in defeat the weak', but strong in defeat the weak cannot just look at the strength of the troops, they also need to look at them.
The morale and morale of the army!" After a pause, he said with concern: "I am worried about Shihuashan, Ma Fang and Qi Jiguang, but what makes me most uneasy is Shen Jiyue!"
After listening to Lin Xuran's words, Wang Zhideng also showed a solemn expression on his face, but he knew that he could not be too optimistic now, and there were great variables in everything.
In Dawu Town, dozens of Thunder God cannons lined up side by side in a clearing in the town.
"Recharge, ignite, and release!"
After the well-trained gunner completed these, he covered his ears and squatted aside. After the earth was shaken with the sound of cannons, he continued another round.
Amid this roaring sound of cannons, lead bullets ranging from ten to fifteen kilograms rose into the air, cleverly leaping over his own soldiers and smashing heavily in the rear of the Mongolian cavalry.
Bang!
Whether this heavy artillery hits people or blood, it splashes a piece of blood, leaving a large pit on the ground, causing the Mongolian cavalry to numb the scalp of the rear.
"Kill in and stop them from firing fire!"
Huang Taiji realized that the Thunder Cannon was not only extremely lethal, but also a heavy blow to their morale, but the target clearly issued an authentic command.
The battle has developed to this day, whether it is to avoid these heavy bullets that have fallen from scratch or to win the battle, Huang Taiji's main force has also taken the lead and tried to rush into Dawu Town and start a massacre.
"kill!"
The Shi family army had already emerged from the city gate and faced the Mongolian cavalry who were trying to rush into Dawu Town, they also bravely welcomed them to fight.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
The light cavalry holding a flintlock rifle shot the head, but kept firing guns at the vicious Mongolian cavalry, striving to fight for the formation and aura of the Mongolian cavalry.
The tall Shi Huashan personally led the troops to fight towards him. Thinking about the situation of being slaughtered in Datong and Shanxi and other places, he swung the long sword in his hand and slashed it hard.
Bang...
The Mongolian cavalry's scimitars seemed very flexible, and some people even cut the armor of the Shijia Army soldiers from their backs, but they saw that the armor immediately splashed.
puff!
The soldiers of the Shi family avoided the disaster with their heavy armor, but they fought back and forth their backhand. Although they were blocked by the scimitar of the Mongolian cavalry, the explosive force continued to slash the Mongolian cavalry's leather jackets.
It's a splatter of blood.
Cavalry has their own advantages and disadvantages, but in terms of combat effectiveness, they are naturally the most expensive heavy cavalry. The heavy cavalry of the Shijia Army has already taken a big advantage, but relying on the advantages of heavy armor, they have made these equipment simple.
Or the old Mongolian cavalry were killed by the horses.
"Is this still the Ming army?"
"This is the famous Shi Family Army in the Nine Borders!"
"Why...they are they so strong?"
...
Huang Taiji's personal guards never fought with the Shi family army. Now when they are fighting head-on, they deeply feel "there is no vain soldier under the reputation" and they also feel shocked.
Although the Ming army they faced in the past also had such heavy cavalry, they had almost no chance of fighting head-on with them, and they were often greedy and afraid of death.
It would be fine if this team was strict in discipline, but the fighting style was so fierce, which refreshed their understanding of the Ming army and felt unprecedented fear of death.
But they were mixed with some remnants who had already lost their fighting spirit, which made them lower their combat power instead of increasing.
Puff! Puff! Puff!
The Shi family army's long sword moved forward, and the Mongolian cavalry seemed powerless to resist. They were all killed under the horses, dyeing the official road in front of the town red.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
The light cavalry holding a flintlock rifle also kept assisting him from the side, clearing obstacles for the main force's heavy cavalry and constantly harvesting the lives of these Mongolian cavalry.
But there were dozens of Thunder God cannons in Dawu Town roaring continuously, making it impossible for Mongolian cavalry to enter Dawu Town, but they were defeated step by step.
Facing the Mongolian cavalry that once made the border army scared, the Shijia Army seemed to massacre Mongolian cavalry with great force at this moment, under the superposition of multiple advantages, it seemed to slaughter the Mongolian cavalry without any bamboo.
Many Mongolian cavalry were originally deserters of two wars. Facing the Shi family army, which showed the style of Han generals, they now have no intention of fighting.
However, the Dawu Bridge has been broken, and behind it is the Beichuan River that is deep and ignorant. Although there is a small road to the west, it is still unknown where it leads. More importantly, Huang Taiji has already been guarded by someone.
"Stop it! Hold it!" Huang Taiji saw his subordinates retreating, but he hoped to reverse the situation and kept shouting to his subordinates in front.
Puff! Puff! Puff!
Ma Fang's son Ma Dong also personally led the troops of the Ma family army to fight, but inherited his father's courage and had already tried hard to kill these evil-sinned Tatars, causing their bodies to be covered in blood.
"Huang Taiji, we can't stand it anymore. Has the Khan's reinforcements ever come to support?" A blood-covered guard returned, but said with a sad face.
Even if they only face the Ma family army, it was extremely difficult, not to mention that there was a Shi family army that demonstrated the style of a Han general, which made them have to struggle to support and there was no possibility of profit at all.
The only reliance is only the elite troops who are entrusted to the Khan and the elite troops who gathered together with the Khan can have the power to fight, otherwise they will definitely be defeated here today.
Huang Taiji also realized that he could not even deal with the Shi army, not to mention that Ma Fang has not appeared yet, but hoped that his father Khan could come to support him.
Because there were many dense trees on both sides of the broken bridge, they blocked his sight, but they could not see clearly the situation opposite the bridge, and they didn't know whether his father Khan would come.
But his hopes are probably lost, because another war has already begun.
"Kill!"
Burigude led his subordinates to act as the front line and rushed towards the Ming army that suddenly appeared.
However, Altan did not rush over, but sat on the horse, squinted his eyes and looked at the flag with his "Qi" and observed the strange Jizhou army.
He knew very well that the Ming Dynasty had already transferred the most powerful army to the Nine Borders, so he did not take the Southern Army seriously from the bottom of his heart, and naturally he would not take Qi Jiguang, the general of Jizhou who was transferred from the South, seriously.
.
It’s just that his old subordinate Qingtaiji was defeated by this surprise soldier. Whether it was out of caution or to find the death of his deceased subordinates, he asked him to test it first.
"Form a formation!"
Qi Jiguang, who was riding on a tall horse, was originally worried about how to hold the cavalry, but when he saw them rushing over, he immediately issued an order.
As the words fell, the well-trained Qi family army formed a chariot formation as soon as possible, quickly forming several round castles in this large grassland, and preparing firearms and bows and arrows.
"Kill!"
Burigude also noticed the spikes on the chariot, but found a gap that had not been closed due to the chariot failure. He excitedly rushed in with his personal guards and shouted.
He had been dealing with the Ming army for more than ten years and knew that as long as they showed enough courage, no matter how many of these Ming soldiers were, they would soon collapse and flee.
But they had just rushed into the chariot formation, but the chariot formation next to them came over and filled the gap as soon as possible.
"kill!"
Qi Xuan led the Wolf Hun team to attack from the side, facing more than 100 Mongolian cavalry that broke in, and cooperated to kill these Tartars as if facing Japanese pirates.
Burigude and his subordinates knew that they had fallen into the trap, but it was too late. Especially in the face of this strange wolf scepter, their waist knives had no room to play, but they were stabbed or rolled down from the horse.
puff!
When Qi Xuan saw Burigude rolling to the ground, he immediately inserted the Qi sword in his hand into Burigude's heart, and his face was splashed with blood.
The war began quickly, but ended faster, and it immediately demonstrated the super team cooperation ability and individual combat ability of the Qi family army.
"Why are you so strong?"
Altan's original intention was just a temptation, but he never expected that the army transferred from the south, which was as powerful as the nine-sided army, could not help but frowned slightly and murmured.
Zhao Quan also saw the scene he had just said. He originally looked down on the so-called Qi family army from the bottom of his heart, but now his face is also serious.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
As the war began, tiger squat cannons and simple cannons in the chariot formation were also pushed out, shooting at the Mongolian vanguards.
The lethality of this level of earth cannons is naturally not comparable to that of Thunder Cannons, but their advantage is that they are lighter and they also give full play to the advantages of firearms.
ah……
The Mongolian cavalry who rushed in the front soon was quickly hit by the head. Although the shells and lead were small, due to the oncoming shooting, many people covered their eyes in pain and fell to the ground.
To be continued...
