Valley Emperor
Vol 2 Chapter 699: Ah, cavalry!
, the fastest update to the latest chapter of the Mountain Valley Emperor!
Facing the Ming army cavalry galloping at high speed, the captain of the grenadier team decisively gave the order: "Follow the front row, drop bombs in the rear row"
In an instant, the grenadiers in the front row pulled the trigger, and the grenadiers in the back row also threw lit grenades. In fact, at this time, the cavalry of the Ming army had not approached a distance of more than 20 meters. .
However, in the mere seconds when the grenade flew in the air for a while and the fuze continued to burn after it landed, the cavalry of the brigade had already rushed to the location where the grenade had landed. Some of the people who were bombed by the Ming army cavalry turned on their backs!
With the sound of gunshots and the explosion of grenades, more than 20 Ming cavalrymen fell directly on the way to charge. This is because the charge formation of Ming cavalry was not close enough, so the casualties caused by grenades were limited, so more At this time, many cavalry wielded spears and long knives to kill!
"Grenadiers, fight to the death!" After the officer issued the last order, he also waved his saber to meet a Ming army cavalry!
The half-squatting grenadiers in the front row were already pressing the **** of the arquebus with the bayonet on the ground, and then pointed diagonally forward!
The grenadiers in the second row squared their muskets, while the grenadiers in the third row also placed their muskets flat through the gap, and the grenadiers in the three rows behind raised their lances diagonally forward, ready to fill the front. Three rows of vacancies.
In an instant, a bayonet forest appeared in front of these Ming cavalry!
However, they did not block the Ming cavalry!
In fact, even if the Ming cavalry wanted to stop, they couldn't stop. The high-speed galloping of the horses was impossible for them to stop in a short time, and it was even more difficult to turn.
Because this is a charge of more than a hundred cavalry, not one cavalry, unless it is a collective turn, otherwise, if you want to turn, you will hit the cavalry next to you.
The charge of the cavalry is actually more like an act of blind obedience!
The people from the front, the left, the right and the left are rushing forward. You have to rush if you don’t rush, because if you stop, you will be directly hit by the cavalry behind, and you will be trampled to death!
So there is no accident, these more than 100 cavalry directly hit the line of defense formed by this grenadier!
In an instant, the Ming army cavalry in the front row turned on their backs, and the grenadiers blocking the front of these cavalry were killed and injured instantly!
At the moment when the two sides collided with each other, it was also the time when the infantry array was under the greatest pressure!
However, the six-column deep grenadier array is not so easy to be broken through!
Although the Grenadiers in the front row were either killed or injured, the Grenadiers in the back row had filled the vacancies, and the muskets in their hands kept stabbing forward, killing the cavalry and their horses that had lost their kinetic energy!
And when the two sides in the front were entangled, the Ming cavalry in the rear inevitably slowed down, and the cavalry who couldn't slow down also bumped up. They didn't even hit the grenadier generals on the opposite side. But their own cavalry!
At this moment, the formation of the two infantry battalions on the two flanks of the grenadiers was also running fast. They were the columns that were marching on the right. When the two infantry battalions on the left turned to face the enemy, they were also the same. At the same time, they stopped marching and formed to meet the enemy.
And these two infantry battalions, because they had more spare time, they were able to form a standard square phalanx!
And the time for them to form a square phalanx was bought for them by the grenadiers!
When the four-corner phalanx of the two infantry battalions began to move forward at a unified pace, and their musketeers began to shoot at the more than 100 Ming cavalry, the Ming cavalry finally reacted. This situation Something is wrong!
Immediately, Zhao Qianhu shouted: "Turn, turn!"
Afterwards, he took the lead to leave, and then urged the horses under his crotch to accelerate for the second time, preparing to first disengage from the enemy formation with only a hundred people in front of him!
When he started to turn with the cavalry with less than 100 people left, he found that the passage he was advancing was just in the middle of the two cavalry of the pseudo-Tang bandit army, and the muskets of the pseudo-Tang bandit army did not stop for a moment. , it is not to continue to move forward, and it is not even to retreat. It is even more courting death to directly attack the square array that the enemy has already lined up!
When Zhao Qianhu was in a dilemma, the main force of the cavalry led by Wang Bianyi also rushed over!
Although the main force of the Ming army's cavalry was numerous, it was naturally impossible to rush in directly from the gap where Zhao Qianhu had entered just now. Instead, it was divided into three waves, which filed in from two gaps respectively. The last wave of cavalry was a roundabout. To the north, try to launch a flank attack from the north!
More than a thousand Ming cavalrymen were divided into three waves and rushed in from three passages. However, when they came in, they found that there were still two enemy formations waiting for them in front of them. The array looked a little weird.
However, the previous pseudo-Tang thieves used these four-cornered phalanxes to fight against each other, so the Ming army saw it at a glance, and thought that since the pseudo-Tang thieves dared to use such a four-cornered phalanx, it must be the superiority of Yoou , this rushing up must be courting death!
So they start turning!
And this turn means that they need to pass in front of the square!
The sound of the musket did not stop for a moment!
The line formed by the original three infantry battalions in the front row also turned directly in place at this time, the front row became the rear row, and even the formation did not need to be changed, and the muzzle was directly aimed at those who had already run behind them Ming Army Cavalry!
"First row shooting!"
"Second row shooting!"
"Third row shooting!"
Two square formations, two infantry battalions turned in place, and all the musketeers had a total of more than a thousand muskets, all of which rushed in and were running in front of their formations. The Ming cavalry opened fire!
Every large-scale round shot can take away the lives of a lot of Ming cavalry!
One after another, the Ming army cavalry fell. Although the number of casualties was not large, the continuous casualties caused them to rush in, but they found that the enemy did not collapse as directly as he imagined, and even the rear side. There is no chance to attack.
Even worse, when they are doing this now, they are directly exposing themselves to the firepower of the enemy's muskets!
So, at this time, the Ming army cavalry generals with different personalities began to make different choices. Wang Bianyi, who personally led more than 300 cavalry around and attacked, saw this scene and directly led the cavalry from another place. He continued to rush down from the side, he wanted to rush out with the cavalry, and was unwilling to stay in this place!
However, Zhao Qianhu and the other Qianhu who followed him rushed in, leading more than 300 cavalry soldiers, but at this time, they shouted and rushed directly to the four corners of the seemingly weak pseudo-Tang bandit army behind, because They don't want to rush over like this, and then be hit like a target. Even if they rush out, I am afraid they will suffer heavy casualties. It is better to take advantage of the current strength and directly conflict with the enemy's four-cornered phalanx.
The four-cornered square of the enemy army looks very thin, with only three columns of spearmen on the four sides in the middle, and musketeers on the four corners, which is easier than the previous line formation of six-column grenadiers. break through.
In fact, they also broke through the first side of the quadrangle for the first time, but then, they were surrounded by almost the entire infantry, because at this time the soldiers who originally formed the quadrangle were already inwards. hoof tendons, and entangled these cavalry who lost their impact!
Another wave of more than 300 cavalrymen chose to fight back with bows and arrows, and some even dismounted and bowed their bows to shoot arrows!
But the more than three hundred of them are now being attacked from the front and the rear. In front of them is a square phalanx, and behind them is a line of infantry battalions.
Simply comparing firepower, they simply can't match the firepower exerted by more than a thousand infantry!
After seeing that the situation was not good, the remaining cavalry evacuated in a hurry, and in the process of rushing out, they were inevitably attacked by some musket firepower and even bows and arrows.
Wang Bianyi, who rushed out with more than 300 cavalry, looked back and saw that of the more than 350 cavalry he led, only 300 people could not ride!
Although there was a loss, it was actually not a big deal. What really distressed him was that the other two waves of cavalry and the vanguard cavalry were still deeply surrounded by the pseudo-Tang bandit army!
At this time, he saw that some of his cavalrymen were trying to break through those passages, but these passages were so easy to break through. Before, his more than 300 cavalrymen were only attacked by the firepower of two pseudo-Tang thieves. Already lost more than 50 rides.
But now the Ming army cavalry is being besieged by the musket fire of the pseudo-Tang thieves on three or four sides. Almost every second cavalry falls down~www.wuxiaspot.com~ These 300 people can finally have Half of the people rushed out, I am afraid they are all lucky!
He also saw that Zhao Qianhu and the others launched a charge with more than 300 cavalry and attacked a square formation of the enemy army, but the square formation of the enemy army was very strange, obviously they had already rushed in, but The infantry of the pseudo-Tang thief army did not collapse, but surrounded them from all directions, blocking the advance passage of their cavalry with their lives.
After Zhao Qianhu and his cavalry lost their impact, they could only ride horses and wield sabres, spears and the infantry of the pseudo-Tang bandit army to fight, Wang Bianyi had already closed his eyes. .
Even if he is a civil official, he is the same as Zhang Yue, a civil official who belongs to Zhibing. Otherwise, he cannot command the cavalry with the official rank of fourth grade.
At this time, he already knew that Zhao Qianhu and the more than three hundred cavalry were finished, completely finished!
Without the impact force, the light cavalry will not be much stronger than the infantry!
They, who are deeply surrounded by the enemy, have absolutely no reason to survive!
When the second wave of more than 150 cavalrymen also broke out of the siege, when they returned to him, Wang Bianyi saw that they were still trapped in the siege, but there were fewer and fewer strikers and the first wave of cavalry. Especially when he saw that the incomparably brave Zhao Qianhu was also hit by the musket of the pseudo-Tang and fell from the horse, he felt dizzy!
How is this going?
Who can tell him why only half of his cavalry is left in less than a quarter of an hour?
Why is the formation of the pseudo-Tang bandit army so strange? Not only does it have strong defensive capabilities, but it can also force its own cavalry to advance or retreat, and finally escape with heavy casualties?
In this battle, the fight was a bit inexplicable, and the defeat was even more inexplicable!
