Cutting over the end of the Ming Dynasty: a dog-leg knife at the beginning

Chapter 509 Night Battle 5
The pace is like a forest, and the crossbow is like the wind.

Thoroughly angered by Houjin's breakout, the Ming army pressed on from all directions and launched a fierce attack on Houjin.Houjin was bombarded by howitzers, cannons, and rockets of the Heluo New Army without thinking, causing heavy casualties and low morale.In fact, they never thought that the Ming army would dare to leave the camp to fight against them at night. They always thought that as long as they feigned attack on all sides, the Ming army would definitely lose sight of the other and show their flaws so that they could break through the siege. They never dreamed that the Dongjiang army They were so ruthless, and they never expected that the Ming army would take the initiative to open the camp to fight against them regardless of the disadvantage of lack of night combat experience!Caught off guard, Hou Jin suffered a great loss and was beaten back again and again.

But Houjin was a strong force after all, and they quickly reacted. Hauge and Mang Gurtai killed more than ten Houjin soldiers who retreated, and stabilized their position. Amidst the desolate sound of trumpets, two thousand Saurons died. The soldiers were heavily armored and armed with tiger spears.Those who greeted these Sauron's dead soldiers were giant axes in the hands of 1000 or [-] hoplites.The ax made of fine steel is thick and sharp. It weighs [-] or [-] kilograms and coupled with the astonishing arm strength of the heavy infantry, with one strike of the ax, even if it is twice armored, it will have to split both the man and the armor!Of course, the very powerful armor-breaking tiger spear in the hands of Sauron's dead soldiers also posed a huge threat to the heavy infantry. This long spear with a formidable health groove is made of fine steel and does not look sharp. , but Sauron's dead soldier thrust out with all his strength, enough to pierce through the thickest breastplate of a hoplite and go straight to the back.The invincible heavy infantry across the battlefield encountered a strong opponent. The two heavy infantry collided fiercely. The sound of the giant ax splitting the armor and chopping flesh was heart-breaking, and the muffled sound of the tiger spear penetrating the armor and tearing the flesh. It was creepy, and people on both sides kept falling.

Seeing this, the new army of Heluo immediately blew their horns, and the pikemen collectively buckled and rotated, and the square formation was changed to a diagonal formation, avoiding the fierce Sauron's dead soldiers, and pressed towards Houjin's soldiers like a mountain.Thousands of rifles shone with a chilling light under the flames soaring into the sky. This is the most domineering weapon in the hands of infantrymen. It is far stronger than other weapons in terms of length and armor-piercing power. No matter whether it is wearing cotton armor or iron armor, No matter how many layers of armor you put on, it will only make your heart feel cold when you get hit.After the golden infantry were stabbed down in rows, the pikemen ignored the whizzing arrows and sprayed blood, stepped away from the twitching corpses, and rolled forward.When stepping on it, I didn't forget to use the sharp spike at the end of the lance to make up for the fallen golden infantry, completely eliminating the possibility of them standing up again.Afterwards, the golden wave rushed over, but desperately found that the entire spear array was almost unbreakable, no matter which direction they attacked from, they would be smashed to pieces in an instant!

In the direction of the pier, there were explosions of grenades one after another, and the roar of crossbow arrows.The phalanx composed of less than [-] sailors also launched a centripetal attack on the Xianghong Banner that was fighting with the Heluo New Army with overwhelming momentum. The crossbows in the hands of the archers in the center kept on firing rows of sharp crossbow arrows at the enemy troops moving back and forth in the distance, while the grenadiers waved their slings and threw grenades around.This almost all-round attack made Hou Jin miserable. I don't know how many soldiers were shot by the roaring crossbow arrows, and I don't know how many people were blown to pieces by the hail of grenades.Especially the grenade, it was the most troublesome. When such a big one hit it, with a bang, the shards and nails shot out layer by layer, and no armor could stop it.The ping-pong-pong bombing of grenades terrified Hou Jin's horses, which further aggravated the confusion.It really echoed Yang Menglong's words: When you meet him, no one wants to fight comfortably. He just has a way to make you scared, and he just has a way to make you lose [-]% of your combat power!
Countless torches merged into raging fire dragons that were charging and biting, countless sharp arrows were flying through the night sky, gunshots were heard one after another, and the roar of tens of thousands of people was like rolling thunder, resounding through the sky. Such a scene is also spectacular enough , is magnificent enough.

Fu Zonglong's beard was trembling, he clenched his fists, and murmured: "If you can win, you can win this battle!"

Those civil servants who made Yang Menglong throw out the Chinese army tent in public looked at each other, and they all showed a look that was uglier than crying.Yang Menglong turned the world around in the Battle of Lushun, wiped out more than 7000 enemies, and recruited more than 1 Mongolian soldiers. His military achievements have never been seen since Lanyu defeated Beiyuan in Yuerhai, and now he is suppressing Houjin The remaining 200 people were beaten violently, and if he was allowed to annihilate this Houjin army, his reputation would overwhelm Wen Tiren and become the No. [-] in the dynasty!With such a perverted situation, the Ming Dynasty's nearly [-]-year-old pattern of using literature to control military forces will be completely overturned, and military generals will rise strongly, and I don't know how much effort it will take to suppress them!Terrible, why did such a pervert appear in the late Ming Dynasty when the military achievements were declining!The group of guys were terrified and gathered together to whisper:
"That martial artist is so powerful, and let him make such great achievements, who else can cure him?"

"Warrior's arrogance is getting more and more arrogant, but the country's situation is getting weaker and weaker. I'm afraid it's not the blessing of Ming Dynasty!"

"How about persuading Mr. Fu to send an order to the whole army to stop the attack?"

"It's useless! The person surnamed Fu is so excited now that he wants to go to the battlefield to fight in person. Who can persuade him?"

"I'll go to Mr. Lu and ask him to open a gap for Jian Nu to break out! This is an old man's move to seek the country. He will understand!"

"Go together, go together!"

……

Helpless, these guys thought of Lu Xiangsheng.The matter of exterminating Jiannu can be put aside for a while, and the pattern of Wen Yuwu can't be broken. Lu Xiangsheng is also a civil servant, so he should be able to understand everyone's difficulties, right?If they can persuade Lu Xiangsheng to open a gap to let Jiannu break out, Wen Tiren can definitely use this as an excuse to deal a severe blow to Yang Menglong's prestige. They have made such great achievements, and the first assistant has to express whatever they say, and let them work harder. Are you an official?As for the consequences of allowing the [-] Jin Jingrui to flee back to Daming, that is not something they have to consider...there is still an army to support it!When they got excited, these guys didn't even say hello, and ran over to Chaotian Xiongjun with some relatives, risking their lives for meritorious service.

After that, Fu Zonglong never saw these live treasures again.

After the war, the Ming army was cleaning the battlefield and unexpectedly found several piles of meat paste wrapped in dirty civilian uniforms. Even if their mother was found, DNA would have to be done to determine which one was their son.

Those unlucky ones died without seeing Lu Xiangsheng, whom they placed high hopes on, because at this time Lu Xiangsheng had left the infantry phalanx of the Tianxiong Army with a few personal soldiers.Actual combat has proved that the firepower of the three-stage knotted flintlock gun is enough to smash Houjin's frontal assault. Rushing in front of the Tianxiong Army won't take any advantage. He has nothing to worry about, and let Lei Shisheng play freely, and ran to the Lancers by himself.

On the outskirts of the battlefield, the cavalry of the Ming army had assembled, and the scale was unprecedentedly large.Heluo New Army, Tianxiong Army, Guan Ning Army, the three powerful forces put together a total of 1 cavalrymen——In Erwangtun, Lu Xiangsheng led 1 cavalrymen in one charge and smashed the [-] army of Houjin Now, only half of the Houjin [-] army is left, but the number of cavalry he leads has doubled!Adding the hunting cavalry and Mongolian cavalry together, how amazing is the scale of the gathering of more than [-] light cavalry and [-] iron cavalry?Seeing his ups and downs, he was filled with emotion.Four years ago, when he led the Tianxiong army into King Jingqin, there were only a few hundred cavalry on thin horses from tens of thousands of horsemen, but now there are [-] cavalry bowing their heads in front of him, not daring to Think, really dare not think.

Zhong Ning and Qian Yu, the two Lancer commanders, bowed their hands to Lu Xiangsheng, acknowledging his absolute command over the cavalry.There is no way, such a huge cavalry corps needs a strong commander, and their prestige and qualifications are not enough to be competent. At least Zu Dale and Zu Dabi are not convinced by them, it is better for Lu Xiang to be promoted.Zu Dabi galloped over on his horse and asked anxiously, "Master Lu, when can we charge?"

Zu Dale shouted: "That's right, if you don't do it again, the Heluo new army will kill them all!"

Don't be in a hurry, they came to Fuzhou to commit crimes and make meritorious deeds. If they don't catch up with this battle, they will run away in vain.

Lu Xiangsheng said: "Don't worry, wait a little longer, wait until the infantry has defeated the morale of the slaves before we attack!"

Zu Dabi frowned and said, "You have to rely on infantry for everything, so why do you need cavalry like us! Let me tell you, Marshal Yang made a mistake in the order of attack. We should let our cavalry go up and charge the Jiannu army formation." If there is a mess, let the infantry press up and crush them in one fell swoop!"

Lu Xiangsheng laughed. It seems that although this fierce general of the Guan Ning Army has trained a cavalryman according to the gourd painting, he still doesn't know much about the role of the cavalryman.For the cavalry, the heavily-arranged infantry phalanx is the most troublesome. If they attack directly, even if they can win, their losses will be heavy. If the infantry phalanx is covered by cavalry, it will be even more troublesome.We must try to weaken the enemy's combat effectiveness, throw the enemy's army into chaos, and the Lancers attack to get the best results, otherwise the pension alone will bankrupt the Tianxiong Army and the Guanning Army!

Ashu also came over and called: "My lord, let's go, the more than 2 heads have matured and are waiting for us to harvest them with a knife!" If you take refuge in Daming, you have to make a great contribution, take hundreds of golden warrior heads as votes, buy it and leave it, people who want to win and are afraid of losing will never be able to become winners.Heaps of nomination certificates were dangling in front of his eyes, and his hands were naturally itchy.

Lu Xiangsheng was about to speak when suddenly, a red signal flare shot up from the direction of the Dongjiang Army. He lifted his spirits, took the horse from his personal hand, pointed in the direction of the signal flare, and said in a thunderous voice: "Keep order, follow the police!" I'm coming!" Pulling down the mask, he rode his horse and ran slowly towards the Dongjiang army.The Hussar Battalion of the Tianxiong Army followed closely, and the Lancers of the Heluo New Army followed closely behind. The two thousand Guanning cavalry were excited, and they also lined up in a row of 1000 people, riding their horses and jogging.Although the Mongolian cavalry didn't know why the Ming army was running so slowly, they didn't dare to ask more questions, and slowly followed with their Miao Dao firmly grasped.Their ability to control horses is very strong, and they cooperate quite tacitly. Although they have not received training in charging over the wall, the formation still looks good, but they don't know what it will be like in a fight. The 1 iron cavalry rotated counterclockwise, bypassing the battlefield and heading straight for the defense line of the Dongjiang Army. This is somewhat confusing, because the Dongjiang Army is still struggling to support, and their defense line has not been washed away!

Abate could clearly feel the ground shaking, and 1 cavalry galloped up, the momentum was too scary, even if the battlefield was already dark, he, a veteran in the battlefield, couldn't hide it.Based on his experience, he judged that the cavalry of the Ming army was moving towards the Dongjiang army, but the speed was not fast, and he couldn't help being a little confused: What the hell is the Ming army doing?Is it because the infantry is in a melee and the cavalry cannot participate in the battle, so use this powerful cavalry to put pressure on them and boost the morale of the infantry by the way?
Judging from normal circumstances, his judgment still makes sense, but you can't even think of encountering normal circumstances when fighting Yang Menglong!He soon discovered that he was too innocent, as innocent as the little angels in the children's choir of the Vatican Cathedral!
