Daming pirates

This level of equipment definitely exceeded that of the rebel cavalry, and it must have a very strong impact. With their strength, they could not stop the cavalry of the Fujian army, so they became even more panicked.

But even so, the rebel general did not dare to leave his post without authorization and immediately led his troops to escape. He could only bite the bullet and call his men to quickly form an array. He moved the spearmen to the front of the formation, and the archers were also arranged behind the spearmen, ready to die.

Carry it for a while and see if you can hold it until reinforcements arrive.

At this time, the official cavalry side suddenly released a large number of cannons, and rockets shot into the sky, then exploded in the air, exploding into clouds of black smoke.

The officers and soldiers' cavalry, hundreds of steps away from them, slowed down their horses slightly, adjusted their formation, and allowed the horses to take a breather. After that, they immediately formed a forward formation and began to slow down.

Slowly lift the horse forward, put the horse in a relaxed state, and start cantering.

A look of fear flashed in the rebel general's eyes, because the behavior of the opponent's cavalry showed that they were a well-trained cavalry, absolutely elite, and they controlled the rhythm of the horses very well, making the men and horses cooperate.

Pretty good.

They must have been faster on the way here, which would consume a lot of physical energy on the war horses. If they rushed over directly, the war horses would not be able to maintain a fast enough speed, which would reduce their impact and destructive power.

Therefore, the officer of the other side knew this very well, and did not rush over with his troops rashly. Instead, he stopped the horses hundreds of steps away and let the cavalry and horses take a rest. The cavalry dismounted and tightened their grip.

The girth of the war horse allows the war horse to rest a little.

Doing this can restore a certain amount of physical strength to the war horses, and then they mount their horses and start to move forward in formation, but they still let the war horses jog, which means they know the habits of the war horses very well. Such jogging allows the war horses to gradually adjust to the position before starting to charge.

This state arouses the excitement of the war horse.

Next, they will gradually increase their speed. When they rush to the rebel formation, the war horses have already reached their highest speed. At that time, the cavalry will have the strongest impact and combat effectiveness. Only veteran cavalry who have been in battle for a long time can

Only then did I understand these truths.

Now the rebel general did not dare to underestimate these Fujian cavalry, and secretly screamed in his heart! I am afraid that they will all be in bad luck today.

Sure enough, after the Fujian official army's cavalry started again, they first slowly put the war horses into a canter. When they came within 200 steps in front of the rebel formation, these cavalry began to speed up, and the war horses started to move.

The canter gradually accelerated to a fast canter, and under the control of the cavalry, it continued to accelerate.

All the cavalrymen began to lower their bodies, tightened their stirrups with their feet, and used their legs to lift their buttocks out of the saddle. They moved their upper bodies forward and lowered them as low as possible. They used the necks of their war horses to block most of their bodies.

Minimize their physical targets.

At this time, even if the archers wanted to shoot them, it was already very difficult. Moreover, they did not take off their lances. Instead, they took off a cavalry shield with their left hand and covered it in front of them, protecting most of them.

Part of the upper part of the body.

At this time, the speed of the war horses was already quite fast. As the war horses continued to speed up, they were getting closer and closer to the rebel array. At this time, the rebels listened to the rumble of horse hooves on the opposite side and watched the opponent's cavalry moving forward like a torrent.

As they rushed over, many rebels were already panicking.

They are not fools. They all see that this cavalry is not good at fighting, and it must be very difficult to deal with. If they rush over, even if they hit their guns, the high-speed impact of the horses will still knock them away, and even

He was beaten to death alive.

This is a life-threatening attack method. Psychologically, these rebels are at an absolute disadvantage at this time. They are all covered in cold sweat and frightened. The two groups are fighting. Finally, some of the spearmen at the front are at this time.

Unable to bear the psychological pressure any longer, he suddenly exclaimed, dropped the spear in his hand, turned around and ran away, only to disrupt the riflemen behind him.

As for the infantry archers, they themselves were so frightened at this moment that when they were rushed by the deserters, some simply dropped their bows and turned around and ran away.

As a result, before the official cavalry could rush towards them, the rebel lines were already in disarray.

At this time, the rebel general yelled and cursed, and repeatedly swung his sword to cut down several deserters, trying to restrain his men from continuing to form defensive formations.

The rebel generals knew very well that the collapse of the battle formation at this time was tantamount to committing suicide. Facing the cavalry pursuit, they had no chance to escape, so their only chance at the moment was to form a formation and hold on to the end. The cavalry were also human beings and they should not be stupid.

Even if they break through the enemy formation, the cavalry at the front will have to follow suit.

At this time, it is a matter of competition to see who has stronger psychological quality, then who will be the final winner. However, it is obvious that the psychological quality of the rebels is far less good than that of the Fujian cavalry. Some rebels have suffered a psychological breakdown and have begun to lose their temper.

The guy turned around and ran away, and the formation they finally formed began to fall apart at this time.

"Fire the arrows! Fire the arrows! Stop them!" the traitor general roared hysterically.

The rebel archers who had been scared to death didn't even need to call him at this time, they had already started shooting arrows. There were more than a hundred infantry archers, fighting for each other to throw arrows forward, without caring about the accuracy of the shot.

Don't care about the enemy, just shoot arrows risking your life.

The rebels' bows and arrows scattered in front of the cavalry formation, and most of them failed to hit the cavalry formation because the rebels were so nervous that they started to fire arrows before the cavalry entered their shooting range.

, causing the first wave of arrows to basically fail.

The rebel archers quickly began to nock arrows and draw their bows, preparing to fire again. At this moment, the Yu's cavalry had already rushed a long distance and were almost in front of the rebels.

At this time, even if some arrows landed in the cavalry formation, most of them were blocked by the shields held by the cavalry. In fact, the damage to the cavalry was not serious.

Some arrows hit the horses, causing them to be frightened, which had some impact on their formation. A few cavalrymen were thrown off their horses because of their fright, and became the first batch of victims.

There were also some cavalrymen who were hit by arrows, but the plate armor they wore on their main torsos was very strong, and the arrows could not penetrate their plate armor at all. A line of sparks was drawn on the curved plate armor, and then it slipped through

The cavalry's body fell to the ground, and it was basically impossible to hurt the cavalry. Even if it hit the limbs, the cavalry's shoulders and upper arms were covered with armor, and it still couldn't be effectively penetrated. At most, it would only be a minor injury.

Therefore, the Yu's cavalry suffered very few casualties during the attack, almost negligible.

But what is strange is that they rushed to a distance of thirty or forty steps in front of the enemy line. None of them took off their lances or drew their sabers. Instead, they all raised their right hands, holding a short and powerful weapon in their right hands.

double barrel musket.

It was not until thirty steps away that the cavalry at the front suddenly pulled the trigger, twice in a row. The front line of the cavalry immediately heard a burst of gunfire like exploding beans.

There was a sound, and a sheet of bullets, like a sudden rain, immediately swept across the front of the rebel formation.

Those lined up in front of the rebel formation were spearmen. These rebels themselves were not elite, and the quality of their equipment was extremely poor. Only a handful of officers wore armor, and it was not very good armor, at best it was just some cotton armor.

Facing the minie bullets shot by the rifled flintlock short guns in the hands of the Yujia army cavalry, these rebels were unable to withstand such a blow. The pikemen in the front row were immediately cut down as if they were being cut grass.

The infantry archers behind were now exposed to the cavalry.

"Puncture tactics! Charge!" The cavalry officer in the cavalry team shouted loudly at this time, drew out the saber from his waist, and raised it high above his head.

The cavalrymen who had fired the guns immediately threw away the short guns, but these short guns had a gun link at their waist. Even if they threw away the short guns, the short guns would still be hanging on their waists.

will be lost.

But this action can save the time of putting away the gun, allowing them to buy the most precious seconds to take off the lance from the side of the saddle.

All the cavalrymen quickly took off their lances and tucked them under their armpits. They held their shields in their left hand and their guns in their right hands. The tips of their lances were flat and slightly lowered, pointing right at the enemy's chest.

At this time, the war horses carrying the cavalry on their backs had reached their fastest speed and rushed directly into the enemy formation. At this time, the rebel spearmen were either killed or frightened and turned around and ran away.

His back was thrown to the cavalry of the Yu Jiajun, as well as the panicked rebel infantry archers. At this time, they all screamed and yelled, dropped their bows and arrows, and turned around and ran away.

At this time, the rebel formation had already turned into a mess. The rebel general also knew at this time that if he didn't run away, he would be doomed. He quickly turned the horse's head, without caring about anything, turned around and began to accelerate, kicking the horse's belly violently.

Playing with his life, he urged the war horse, turned around and ran towards Laizhou City.

It can be said that the two cavalry companies swept away the rebels who blocked them with almost no effort.

The cavalrymen rushed past the rebels with their lances straightened out. With a shake of their wrists, they thrust forward, and with the speed of their horses, they pierced the enemy with the sharp spear points of their lances like lightning.
