Chapter 1016: Desperate Charge


The breeze blew, and the white gunpowder smoke was blown away, revealing the Jin army front opposite.At this time, at the moment when the Ming musketeers were stationed, the first platoon of non-commissioned officers raised their guns high in the shouts of the officers, and on the mile-long battle line, nearly 10,000 muskets were flattened and the hammers were broken.The Jin soldier who had just finished shooting a shot, looked at the silent Ming army thirty paces away, the armor and muskets were so clear.The muzzle of the black hole seemed to hit the door of his head, which was terrifying.The Jin soldiers who reacted hurriedly retreated in panic, and the second row of soldiers stepped forward in a little panic.On the line of the Ming army, like a group of stars twinkling, countless gun flames were spewed, and white smoke bands spread from the center of each array to the two wings, and then the smoke bands were connected, instantly forming a white dragon that was several miles long.In the thunderous gunshots, the Jin army on the opposite side who had just raised their muskets, their clothes and armor were torn apart by the violent projectiles, their chests bloomed with blood, and their bodies trembled and fell to the ground like mowing grass.The remnants of the Jin army were frightened by the volley of the Ming army, and the musketeers hurriedly put down their guns, and some even forgot to shoot, so they hurriedly retreated, trying to hide behind the others.The Jin troops in the first row retreated in a panic, and most of the Jin troops in the second row continued to load, and before they could react, they had already become the first row.At this time, the second column of the Ming army stepped forward, picked up the musket again, and faced the muzzle of the Ming army, the Jin army, who was still pounding the ammunition with the tong, was suddenly frightened and fierce, only to feel as if they had been stripped naked, some people turned around and retreated, and some people hurriedly pulled out the tong, raised the musket and prepared to shoot, and the front was immediately chaotic."

Bang bang bang" The musketeers of the Ming army fired again, the soldier pulled the trigger hard, the hammer hit the steel sickle, and immediately a loud bang in the chamber of the gun, the musket shook back, and countless projectiles whistled into the chaotic queue of the Zhou army.The Zhou soldiers who raised their muskets and turned to retreat were shot one after another, and in the sound of the popping projectiles entering the body, the Zhou soldiers in front fell to the ground in unison, and the corpses formed a thick black line on the ground.At this time, the third row of Zhou soldiers reacted, and before they had time to load, they immediately shouted and retreated, and the Zhou army musketeers crowded together in a panic.Jiang Xiang's expression changed greatly when he saw this, and in his stunned gaze, the third column of musketeers of the Ming army stepped forward, raised their guns to aim, and the elite musketeers under his command collapsed like a collapsed river embankment under the guns of the Ming army."

Steady!

Can win!

”Jiang Xiang roared loudly, but the rhythm of the Jin army's loading and shooting was completely disrupted, and the musketeers who did not collide with the reload, facing the muzzle of the Ming army, under the current close distance, the huge pressure made the Jin army completely collapse and run back desperately.The shooting of the Ming army came again, and the projectiles swept across the land like a violent wind, crowding the retreating Jin soldiers, and most of them fell in an instant, and layers of corpses covered the ground.On Tongguan, Wu Sangui kept watching, and the musket duel between the Ming and Jin armies on the southern line of the battlefield was dueling.During the Battle of Xingyang, Wu Sangui had seen the strength of the Ming army's musketeers, and this time he was still shocked when he looked at it again."

Jiang Xiang is defeated!"

Wu Sangui came back to his senses from the earth-shattering musket volley, looking lost and regretting in his heart that Jiang Xiang had not been able to turn the tide and change the tide of the battle.At this time, Hong Chengchou pointed to the front of Guancheng and exclaimed again, "It's not good, Mandahai can't move!"

”When the Jin army's musketeers were defeated, Mandahai, who led the charge of 10,000 horsemen, was also in trouble.The Manchurian cavalry flew into three waves, broke through the blockade of the Ming cavalry, and rushed straight to the hollow formation of the Ming army.This formation has been used by the Ming army many times, and the Manchurian cavalry has suffered losses more than once, knowing that the hollow formation group restrains the cavalry, but it is not completely without a strategy to deal with it.That is to use artillery bombardment, or musket shooting, to disrupt the formation, the cavalry does not take the passage between the hollow arrays, and directly uses heavy cavalry to break the hollow phalanxes one by one.Under the bombardment of the Zhou army's artillery array, the first wave of cavalry broke two phalanxes, the second wave of cavalry broke another phalanx, and the last wave of cavalry broke through a phalanx.At this time, the Manchurian cavalry after entering the battle was bombarded by the muskets and artillery of the Ming army on all sides, and the heavy cavalry was completely lost in the process of cavalry hedging and attacking the phalanx.The light cavalry fired with muskets, the grenade exploded, and it collided with the bayonet of the Ming army's oblique stab, the war horse was stabbed to death, and the cavalry was dragged down the war horse and hacked to death.Mandahai galloped in the smoke of gunpowder, his vision was not clear, all around him were the sound of muskets and explosions, and the cavalry, which had suffered heavy losses, was unable to continue to charge, bypassing the front of the phalanx and rushing into the gap between the two phalanxes.The Ming troops in the two phalanxes suddenly raised their guns and fired a volley, and the Manchurian cavalry that passed through the gap fell to the ground like jujubes.However, fortunately, this is already the last formation, Man Dahai and others rushed out of the gap, and in front of them was a large open area vacated after the charge of the Ming army.This made Mandahai happy for a while, but just when the Manchurian cavalry came out of the battle, after the Ming cavalry reorganized the formation, they galloped from behind, killing the Manchurian cavalry out of the formation, and scattered them.Of the nearly 10,000 Manchurian cavalry, only a small half of them came out of the formation, and the cavalry was diverted by the hollow formation and rushed out from various different exits, and the command system completely collapsed.The cavalry of the Ming army drove these scattered cavalry and drove them to the east, and Mandahai rushed out of the smoke of gunpowder, and for a while he did not know the direction and was driven to the front of the main formation of the Ming army.At this time, the Manchurian cavalry ran aimlessly, and five or six hundred cavalry gathered in the Manchurian sea gallop, and at this moment, there was a roar of hooves behind him, and a team of thousands of Ming cavalry came from behind.The Manchurian cavalry that had just gathered thought it was a well-equipped cuirassier, and in a panic, the gathered men and horses scattered in an instant.Man Dahai shouted and cursed, trying to gather the cavalry, but in a moment there were only more than a hundred horsemen left.This made Man Dahai despair, and at this moment, he saw the Ming army in front of him.Zhao Ming rode a tall horse imported from Arabia, standing proudly under the battle flag, his eyes scanning the entire battlefield.On the flank of the army, Jiang Xiang's army, defeated by the Ming army's musketeers, fled to the mountains, and could no longer pose a threat to the flank of the army.In the left front, the mighty Manchurian cavalry, after rushing out of the hollow formation, the cavalry could not gather, and was being driven and pursued by the Ming cavalry, and it was difficult to shake the battle situation.Directly in front of the army, the forward of the Ming army had broken through the front line of the Zhou army, rushed into the camp of the Zhou army, and slaughtered towards Tongguan.At this time, the defeat of the Zhou army was decided, and it was already powerless, but at this moment, there was a Manchurian cavalry of nearly 100 people in front, roaring towards Daxu."

Zhao Zamao!"

Manda Hai beat the horse and galloped wildly, his eyes red and roaring like a beast.More than 100 Manchurian cavalrymen raised their cavalry guns, raised their swords, and brandished them to kill Zhao Ming.Zhao Ming frowned slightly when he saw this, and the Ming army musketeers in front of him quickly lined up in three rows, blocking him straight.The musketeers of the Ming army, squatting in the front row, lunges in the middle row to raise their guns, and the back row has a straight combat force, nearly a thousand muskets, and the high and low are staggered and pointing to the rushing cavalry.Man Dahai, who was galloping, looked at the musket of the Ming army, held the war knife high in his right hand, and roared loudly in despair, "Kill!"

”More than a hundred cavalrymen charged frantically and desperately, trying to slash their enemies, and at this moment, a whistle sounded, the guns on the opposite side of the cavalry flickered, and Man Dahai fell heavily to the ground, and the last thing in his eyes was a flickering galaxy that he could not surpass.
