The most reckless man in the Ming Dynasty
Chapter 398: Fighting to the point of madness!
The battle is about to break out.
In just the first test, there were casualties on both sides.
The fire cannons were fired one after another in an endless stream!
This situation does not even require any aiming, raising the gun, shooting, raising the gun, shooting... one action, repeated over and over again!
In exchange, the rushing left-wing Mongolian cavalry fell in pieces like wheat in an instant!
For cavalry, battlefield distance is extremely important!
Because if the war horse wants to increase its speed, there must be enough distance for it to run and accelerate!
Those cavalry who cannot charge will become living targets on the battlefield. They will either die under the enemy's crossbows or be surrounded and hacked to death by the infantry!
The most effective attack method of the cavalry is to rely on the unrivaled inertia carried by the charge of the war horse to penetrate the enemy's formation!
That terrifying collision between man and horse is enough to crush anything that dares to stand in front of the cavalry!
After one round of charge, they quickly evacuate the battlefield, reorganize the army in a roundabout way, and launch a second round of charge from the side. This is the correct way for the cavalry to open up.
Of course, if you want the cavalry to quickly leave the battlefield after fighting in formation, you must be an extremely high-quality cavalry unit!
Without discipline or organization, coupled with poor quality of horses and cavalry, such a cavalry team may smash eggs against the wall after launching the first charge, scattering the flowers and making it impossible to collect them even if they want to. Forget about organizing a second round of charges.
The soldiers of the Beijing Army have long understood this.
In fact, as long as they are not frightened by the cavalry attack, a Beijing soldier, under the cover of his own side, can easily kill several times the enemy.
And the fire gun soldiers currently trapped in the camp have undoubtedly achieved this!
You must know that the elite among them all followed Tang Hao, the Marquis of Zhongshan, in a massacre war that lasted for more than half a year. Most of them had slaughtered old and weak women and children, let alone these Mongol adults, so there was nothing to be afraid of.
There are two shoulders supporting one head, and if a shuttle passes by, you will die!
In fact, before firearms reach a certain qualitative change, it is absolutely difficult to support a war with firearms alone.
The qualitative change in firearms is mainly artillery, such as explosive artillery shells that can cause large-scale destruction in one go. The Ming army simply does not have it now and cannot make it.
It is precisely because of this that when the scale of the battle reaches hundreds of thousands, firearms and artillery cannot play a decisive role.
Today, the same is true.
The fire cannons were fired several times, and the rushing cavalry crossed a not-so-long distance and violently hit the horses, wooden piles, trenches and the wooden carriage frame that were used as obstacles in front of the battle...
Next, what they were going to hit were the military formations of the Ming army.
"Pikemen!"
Seeing that the left-wing cavalry had broken through the outer military formation and headed straight for the central army.
Anguo immediately shouted angrily, and the spearmen in the front row of the central military formation immediately squatted down, raised the spears in their hands diagonally, and touched the back end to the ground!
The mission of the pikemen is to build a thorn fortress with their flesh and blood to block the enemy's cavalry charge.
The spearman in the back row holds the spear in his right arm, and his left hand is responsible for fixing and adjusting the direction, with the tip of the spear facing forward.
The densely packed spear points are the shell of the central military formation, a shell covered with spikes.
As long as the enemy cavalry dares to charge over, they will definitely suffer heavy losses!
However, many of these spearmen were already trembling in their hands and feet.
Who can be unafraid in the face of the cavalry's charge and oppression?
They are all people of flesh and blood. Who would not be afraid of using flesh and blood to build a defense line?
Especially the spearmen in the front row, even if their spears can pierce the opponent's horses, even if their spears can knock off the opponent's cavalry, they will not survive!
Because of the terrifying inertia carried by enemy war horses, they can also be knocked away!
Under such a violent impact, it is a kind of luck to die directly on the spot!
The most fearful thing is that those who have countless broken bones in their bodies but have not yet died will only be trampled to death by the rebels!
In that state, every extra moment of survival means one more moment of torture, and the state of death is also extremely miserable!
Darhan also noticed the densely packed cold spears in the military formation in front of him, but instead of feeling scared, he showed a ferocious smile.
As a tribe directly affiliated with Dayan Khan Batu Mengke, the Kashgar tribe has always received special preferential treatment. The trophies obtained after each war are also among the first echelon. Therefore, the tribal warriors are all elites, and most of them are also They all wear armor that can withstand some fatal injuries!
Even if I have to trade my life for my life, I will tear apart your former military formation today!
Darhan let out a long hiss, inspiring the Erlang warriors behind him.
"Boys!"
"The Immortal God is watching you!!"
Darhan hissed angrily, held a knife and rode in, leaping over the dense mass of spears, and then started a frenzied killing spree.
The leader was so brave, so the Kashgar warriors were naturally not to be outdone, and hit him hard against the cold spear.
In an instant, there was a loud noise, like the earth was shattering!
Between the lightning and flint, the sound of gold and iron fighting, the neighing of war horses, screams and wails resounded throughout the battlefield!
Bursts of dull, heavy sounds continued to be heard, just like the collision of two huge rocks, continuous and like thunder!
Just this collision, the front row of spearmen in the trap camp were smashed into pieces.
Before they could re-form their formation, dense rain of arrows like locusts shot in, ruthlessly harvesting the lives of the soldiers.
The shield soldiers and spearmen standing in the front suffered unimaginable heavy damage in an instant.
The strong inertia carried by the Yan army's iron cavalry directly knocked a large number of shield soldiers and spearmen away!
A spearman's bones were broken and blood was constantly spurting out of his mouth, but he was not dead yet.
This is also what the spearmen feared the most!
He was obviously not going to survive!
But he still had to suffer torture!
He watched the horse's hooves fall to the ground and trampled him into meat paste!
And Dalhan still did not stop charging, slashing with the scimitar in his hand, and went straight to Anguo in the center.
The bravery and fighting skills of the Mongolian leader were simply astonishing.
"Swordsmen! Hurry up!"
"Fire muskets!"
An Guo shouted hurriedly.
The swordsmen began to take their positions, and they were behind the shield soldiers!
But after the charge, they would quickly break away from the protection of the shield soldiers, rush forward directly, swing their swords and axes, and kill the enemy cavalry!
What they had to do was to go up and kill the cavalry after the front row of spearmen blocked the cavalry's charge.
The battle broke out quickly, but it was extremely tragic.
The whole world was filled with a pungent and disgusting smell of blood.
But even so, it was only a front-line war.
The Xianzhen Camp faced the Mongolian Kashgar tribe, and both sides fought to the point of madness!
