Chapter 470: Rushing to help


In the hills, the artillery hidden by the Ming army retreated violently, raising a cloud of smoke and dust in the mountains and forests.The cannonball smashed into the column of the Qing army's marching army, and suddenly splashed a pillar of mud, and the Qing army was hit by the rubble, fell to the ground and rolled, wailing everywhere.Li Benshen roared loudly, "Musket shooting, spearmen array, hurry up!"

”The Qing soldiers on the road were frightened and panicked, but after all, they had fought their morale along the way, and they were the elite of the green camp, so they would not be scattered and defeated immediately when they were ambushed.In the mud pillars splashed by the shells, a part of the Qing army began to rush to meet the battle amid the roar of the generals.The Qing gunners hurriedly set up their artillery, and the musketeers hurried forward, stood on the periphery of the road, and raised their muskets on one knee.At this time, the horses galloped, and the cavalry that rushed down from the high place had already killed them.The cavalry rushed down from a high place, and the weight of the horses and knights was blessed by gravity, and the impact shook the mountains like mudslides, and the sound was terrifying, making the faces of the Qing soldiers pale and their legs tremble."

Put!"

Li Benshen roared urgently.In fear, the Qing soldiers twisted their heads to the side, pulled the trigger, and the sound of "bang bang bang" sounded intermittently, and the Qing army's bronze cannon retreated violently, and with a loud "boom", the cannonball smashed into the rushing Ming cavalry.Under the bombardment of muskets and artillery, the cavalry of the Ming army who rushed in front fell from their horses again and again, but the cavalry who rushed down from a high place had a huge inertia and was extremely fast, and they could not brake the car at all, nor would they brake, but directly crashed into the Qing army with a terrifying impact.The Qing army, which had just finished a round of muskets, retreated and reloaded before they came, and the Ming cavalry had already killed in front of them.The musketeers of the Qing army suddenly exclaimed, and they retreated with their guns one after another, dodging the impact of the cavalry, and the improvised musket formation completely collapsed in an instant in the face of the overwhelming power of the cavalry.Li Benshen stood behind the musket line, and saw the cavalry of the Ming army galloping on horseback, and immediately the knight's body leaned sideways, the horse lance stood up, the ground shook and the earth shook with impact, and the sound of ten thousand hooves trampling the earth was like an earthquake, and he hurriedly hissed the roar in the bottom, "Raise the gun, raise the gun!"

”The spearmen of the Qing army were all frightened by the terrible scene in front of them, and they suddenly woke up under the loud shouts of the officers.The spearmen of the Qing army immediately faced the cavalry, marched to the outermost part of the battle line, and then hurriedly pestled the tail of the spear on the ground, and the head of the spear stabbed forward diagonally.For a time, the musketeers retreated, the spearmen moved forward, but more Qing troops were scurrying like ownerless flies.At this time, as soon as the Qing soldiers formed a thin defensive line, a cloud of gunpowder smoke rose from the oncoming cavalry, and the three-eyed fire guns spewed out orange flames and projectiles that shot out quickly.The green battalion soldier with thin clothes and armor, his body was suddenly torn apart by the projectile, the blood mist was fluffy, and he flew upside down screaming, and the already thin defense line was immediately half empty.With a loud "boom", the Ming cavalry, holding a horse lance and wielding a three-eyed firearm, rushed out of the gunpowder smoke and crashed into the Qing formation.The first knight, the chest is a whole piece of white plate armor reflecting the silver light, wearing an iron helmet on the top of his head, chain mail to protect the neck, with an iron beast face on his face, only a pair of eyes are exposed, the horses are also covered with armor, and the cavalry is holding a horse lance of eight feet, the sharp lance head flashes with cold light, and directly crashes into the Qing army line.The horse lance instantly stabbed into the chest of the Qing spearman in the front row, pushed his corpse, and slammed backwards, and some of the horse lances pierced several people in a row, directly knocking through the Qing army line.In an instant, the Ming cavalry rushed into the Qing army, killed the Qing formation, and rushed up the opposite hill.Seeing this, Ma Guanghui's face turned pale, and Li Benshen immediately shouted: "Quickly recover the formation and send someone to break through and ask for help." ”At this time, the cavalry of the Ming army, which had penetrated the Qing army's front, rushed up the opposite hill, gradually reduced its speed, the cavalry stopped at reining in the horse, and then pulled the reins, turned the horse's head, and made a little formation, Xie Qian raised the horse lance and shouted loudly: "Brothers, charge me!"

Kill the clear dog!

”After speaking, as soon as he pulled the reins of his horse, he rushed down the hill again, and three thousand cavalry immediately roared and killed the Qing army.To the south of Kaesong, more than 15,000 Qing troops were marching along the road in the direction of Seoul.Zhao Ming sent sailors to attack and harass the Ping'an Road and the Huanghai Road, so that the rear of the Qing army was threatened, Hong Chengchou has always been very stable in the war, he was worried about being cut off by the Ming army, so he had to reduce the speed of the march to ensure that the Ming army and the Korean army in the occupied area were cleared, and more than 5,000 horses were discharged to garrison Yiju, Pyongyang, Kaesong and other places to ensure the rear road of the army.In the battle of Songshan that year, Hong Chengchou also moved forward steadily, but unfortunately in the end, the financial resources of the imperial court could not support him, forcing him to take the risk of going forward, and finally lost ground and was defeated by the Qing army.After the Qing army entered Korea, it was like a bamboo, but Hong Chengchou was very cautious and repeatedly ordered all departments not to despise Haikou.At this time, the Qing army fought all the way to the vicinity of Seoul, and should have been happy to see that they would win the Korean War, but Hong Chengchou was a little uneasy in his heart.This uneasiness stems from the fact that the Qing army's front has been stretched too long and has penetrated hundreds of miles into Korea, but the main force of Zhao Zamao has never appeared.This made Hong Chengchou a little uneasy, after the army entered Kaesong, he found that the striker had left Kaesong and continued to advance towards Seoul, he had a trace of worry in his heart, and smelled a little conspiracy.Under the banner of the Qing army, Hong Chengchou rode on a horse, looked ahead, and asked in a deep voice: "How far is it from Seoul?"

”"Back to the middle hall!

It should be eighty miles from Seoul, and the army will be able to enter under Seoul today!

”The Manchu general Han Dynasty once entered the dynasty with the Qing army and was more familiar with the terrain of Korea.Hong Chengchou heard this, his mood relaxed a little, the distance of eighty miles, under the gallop of the cavalry, it could be reached in half a day, and the strength of the Ming army was far less than him, and it was expected that Zhao Zamao would not dare to play any tricks under his nose.Hong Chengchou took out the bearing of an old superintendent for many years, nodded, and waved his hand: "The army continues to move forward!"

”However, at this moment, a cavalry galloped towards him, attracting the Qing troops who were marching forward, and the cavalry galloped not far in front of Hong Chengchou, and fell directly from his horse.This surprised many Qing generals, and one of the Qing generals hurriedly turned over and dismounted, and helped the cavalry up, only to find that he was covered in blood, and there were several blood holes in his back that had been shot by muskets, as if he was about to die."

What's going on?"

Hong Chengchou and the others hurriedly urged the horse forward and asked urgently.The Qing cavalry's breath was weak, pointing to the south, and said intermittently: "Our army, in, ambush in the Bihu Pavilion~" As soon as the words came out, everyone was shocked, Hong Chengchou tightened the reins of the horse, his eyes were slightly prominent, Zhao Zamao was so bold, he really didn't put him in his eyes, the two armies were so close, he actually dared to ambush."

What's going on now?"

Hong Chengchou asked in a deep voice, and there was no panic in his voice.The Qing cavalry said with a painful expression: "The forward marched to the Bihu Pavilion, and was suddenly attacked by the enemy, and then was attacked by the cavalry, and was overwhelmed~" Hong Chengchou heard the words, knowing that Ma Guanghui and Li Benshen were in danger, and the situation was not optimistic.Obviously, Zhao Zamao carefully planned an ambush battle to eat the Qing army's forward, which was a danger to the Qing army, but it was also an opportunity.The Qing army had more troops than Zhao Zamao, and Hong Chengchou was more worried that Zhao Zamao would give up Seoul and enter the sea than when he met Zhao Zamao, so he would not be able to get half of the miscellaneous hair on his trip to North Korea.Now Zhao Zamao ambushed the forward, if the rescue was timely, the Qing army had every chance to turn the tide of the war, defeat Zhao Zamao in a battle, and get rid of the troubles of the Qing Dynasty's henchmen.Thinking of this, Hong Chengchou suddenly raised his horsewhip and shouted loudly: "The Bihu Pavilion is only fifty miles away from here, and Zhao Zamao dares to set up an ambush at such a close distance, it is really no one in his eyes."

The herald ordered the horse army to rush south at once, and the infantry army followed me. ”At that moment, the generals of the Qing army received orders one after another, and the Han Dynasty immediately led 6,000 Manchurian cavalry and rushed towards the Bihu Pavilion.Six thousand Qing cavalry, galloping on horseback, ran more than 20 miles in a short time, and came to the vicinity of the horseshoe pavilion, and there were only thirty miles left from the blue hoof pavilion.At this time, the cavalry of the Qing army poured up the hill like a tide, ready to climb over the top of the hill, and suddenly, the sound of "bang bang bang" musket shooting sounded, and the Qing army that rushed to the forefront suddenly fell to a piece, and instantly a burst of people howled and neighed, and they hurriedly reined in the horses."

It's hard to stop!"

Han Dai reacted, shouted loudly, and hurriedly reined in the war horse, he looked up and saw that a Ming army was lined up on the top of the hill, just blocking the way of the cavalry.
