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

Chapter 295: Crushing Those Idiots to Death!
call out!
A crossbow arrow reached the limit of its range, and it stuck crookedly on the ground, scaring Yue Tuo into a cold sweat.

Yue Tuo glanced at the short crossbow, and then turned his head to stare at the Ming cavalry troops getting closer, filled with resentment.This archer of the Ming army actually used a crossbow specially designed for infantry. I really don’t know what he thought, but he actually used this kind of crossbow that can only be fired once from horseback!In fact, there was more than one Ming army cavalry who used the crossbow. Several masters with red flags were shot to death by this kind of crossbow when they were escaping.The crossbows of the Ming army are also terrible, with a range far better than that of riding bows, and the arrowheads are tempered with tiger medicine. Even if they miss a vital point, the tiger medicine will bring down the golden warriors.In addition to the slow rate of fire, this weapon can be slowly aimed at the target while holding it on horseback. The perfect cavalry weapon, too many soldiers with red flags died under the crossbow arrows it fired!
Damn it, when did Ming Gou change his gender? Instead of playing firecrackers, he played with crossbows instead, and he was so good at it!
What was more deadly than the powerful crossbows in the hands of the Ming army were the two to three thousand war horses of the Ming army.The Ming army, which defeated the elite Xianghong Banner through foot combat, rode these horses to pursue the Xianghong Banner, and kept catching up with the troops after the Xianghong Banner was broken.Yue Tuo became more and more angry. He dismounted and fought on horseback. This was the most classic way of fighting when Houjin started his career, but now it is used on Houjin warriors!He has never had the opportunity to count how many troops Xianghongqi lost, because if he stopped to count the casualties, he would soon become a member of the casualty list.Fortunately, it was not far from the camp here, only about six or seven miles. The horses galloped at full speed, and soon saw a large number of flags—the flags of the Houjin army who were besieging the Ming army camp.Reluctantly, he had the trumpeter sound the rallying call.

"Woooooooooooooo"

The desolate sound of the trumpet sounded amidst the turmoil, and soon there was movement over there, and countless Mongolian light cavalry and soldiers with red flags came from the wild.When the elites with the red flag saw their own troops coming to support them, they had the urge to cry. They desperately kicked the horse's belly with spurs, forcing out the last trace of the horse's strength. The Liaodong war horse ran wildly, hissing, Soon, the two armies will join forces.Yue Tuo raised the flag high and yelled with all his strength: "I am Gushan's forehead inlaid with a red flag, all generals and officers come to see me quickly!"

Needless to say, several Mongolian generals and generals inlaid with red flags automatically ran over, seeing Yue Tuo's appearance, they couldn't help being surprised.Now the owner of the inlaid red flag looks very bad, not to mention his face is ashamed, and there is an arrow nailed to his helmet. Although most of it has been broken, it is still very conspicuous, blood is flowing all over his face, and he is extremely embarrassed.Look at Xianghongqi again, good guy, the flags are scattered, there are many casualties, and the ten stops have at least two or three stops. There is no doubt that Xianghongqi has lost a big battle, and it is a disastrous defeat!Several Mongolian generals were taken aback, and wanted to ask Yue Tuo if he went to Beijing to fight and how he was beaten so badly, but Yue Tuo didn't give them a chance to speak, panting and said: " The soldiers of the Ming army are extremely sharp, and our troops cannot support them, so please be sure to block the red flags for me, and let us take a breath, Yue Tuo is very grateful!" After speaking, he led the soldiers away without stopping, so that he came to follow me The two armored flags inlaid with red flags he met were inexplicable.

The Mongolian generals were also confused, but when they saw the Ming army sweeping across the plain like a black tide, they did not dare to neglect, and each led their troops to meet them.

Zhong Ning was the first to discover the Mongolian banner soldiers who came to help, and called to Yang Menglong: "My lord, the Tartars have come to support, and there are still a lot of troops, what should I do?"

This is indeed a very difficult problem. There are two to three thousand Mongolian cavalry who came to aid, and the cavalry of Wuyang Guard, even if the scout squadron is counted, is only five or six hundred, and there has just been a battle, and the casualties are not small , there is a huge disparity between the number of people and the number of people.Still, remember?Yang Menglong is very unreliable. Faced with such a complicated enemy situation, he gave the simplest order: "Go!"

The trumpeter blew the swan whistle, and the Lancers who were chasing and killing the fleeing enemy almost reflexively moved closer to the center of recognizing the flag, put down the miscellaneous weapons in their hands, raised their arms and stretched their crossbows, and loaded arrows with the fastest speed.When Qi Hu heard the whistle sound, his lungs almost exploded, that bastard, who does he think he is?Li Cunxiao or Lu Bu?The Mongolian cavalry is several times more than them, and they are still rushing, do they have any brains!Now he regrets that he has trained the soldiers to be too obedient, even obeying such reckless orders unconditionally, Yang Menglong just rushed at them, without even thinking about whether he would be surrounded!

Han Peng was also shocked and called out, "Old man, that big horse monkey rushed over, what should we do?"

The veins in Qi Hu's neck popped up, and he roared angrily: "What else can I do? One counts as one, charge over the wall!"

This is no way, there are only so many cavalry in the Wuyang Guard, and the desperate guy faced Mongolian cavalry that was several times larger than himself, and he plunged into it without blinking. They don't have long-armed King Kong He was able to pull him back, but he couldn't just watch him being surrounded by Mongolian cavalry, so he had to use infantry as cavalry.The buglers took out their maximum lung capacity and blew their horns loudly. The pikemen, who had been advancing at a constant speed, lined up in twenty rows of cavalry walls in a tacit understanding, put their spears flat, and rolled forward.Fortunately, they are cavalry infantry, and they will have at least seven days of equestrian training every month. It is even more fortunate that the horseback charge does not have high requirements for cavalry. However, these pikemen were able to make a gorgeous transformation in a very short period of time, becoming Lancers!

Wu Yong's eyeballs almost fell to the ground: "Just... Just rush up like this? Do you want to die?"

The Jin Yiwei who accompanied the army all turned pale, and secretly called my mother, this little general Yang is really not ordinary!Probably because it was so fun to chase the red flag just now, even the group of Jin Yiwei were also crazily secreting adrenaline hormones, knowing that such a charge would never return, they still followed suit, holding the spears that they did not know where they picked up Or a nail gun, and lunge forward with your eyes closed.

The Mongolian cavalry stared wide-eyed.

Isn't the Ming army very cowardly?Isn't the Ming army very afraid of death?Why did this Ming army charge forward without even saying hello?These guys have taken the wrong medicine!

Regardless of whether the Ming army took the wrong medicine or not, if they continued to be in a daze, they would definitely have to be trampled into the fertile land by the Ming army cavalry.The Mongolian cavalry didn't talk nonsense, they rode their horses to meet them, and opened their horn bows to shoot quickly.This kind of horn bow is a soft bow with extremely fast shooting speed. It is a terrifying weapon in the hands of these well-trained Mongolian cavalry. When the bowstring trembled, several arrows flew out in a line, and the sky above Wuyang Guard's head suddenly rained down. There was a rain of arrows.However, this kind of bow can only bully the Ming army, which has a terrible armor ratio. It will not work when it comes to the Wuyang Guards. The Wuyang Guards are the best in armor. Looking at the entire Ming Dynasty, they think they are second, and no one dares to think they are first, even the Hou Jin Dynasty. It was difficult for them to penetrate their breastplates with armor-piercing arrows over 50 meters away. They simply ignored the light arrows shot by the Mongolian horn bows. They allowed the rain of arrows to wash away their armor without even noticing. In a blink of an eye, they raised their arms, raised their crossbows, and fired their weapons simultaneously. The Mongolian cavalry staggered like a wheat field blown by the wind, and more than 100 of them were shot down in one encounter.After shooting an arrow, they immediately mounted their crossbows, raised their lances, and made the final sprint... The Mongolian cavalry were shocked to find that their dense rain of arrows did not have the desired effect, and they fell on the Ming army and bounced around. However, the Ming army seemed to be undisturbed, only a few Ming army cavalrymen fell down because of arrows hit by their horses. This situation has never happened before!Now that the distance between the two sides was very close, they could already see the cold light of sweat emitting from the spear blades. They were all frightened by it and retreated in unison!

However, it's a little late to retreat now, isn't it?
Before the Mongolian cavalry turned their horses' heads, the Lancers had already bumped into them with their horses and men. The several-meter-long spear pierced their bodies easily, picked them off their horses, and then drew their sabers out of their sheaths and formed them in the air. There are dull closing curtains, announcing the end of each life.Even the thick iron armor on the post-golden warriors couldn't resist the saber made of high manganese steel, let alone the Mongolian cavalry with only a set of smelly leather armor. Sugar cane is much harder.The terrified Mongolian cavalry swung their scimitars to block, but the scimitars were not much stronger than their leather armor, and they would break with a single blow, giving them no chance to use their sword skills at all!The Lancers cut through the formation of the Mongolian cavalry like butter with a knife, and went straight to the core. Behind them, there were thousands of temporary guest Lancers, sprinting forward with their spears!The pikemen of these temporary cameo cavalrymen are not skilled enough. Many times, they stab out their spears prematurely, allowing the Mongolian cavalry to easily avoid them, or after stabbing the enemy, the enemy's corpse is dragged around, but none of this is important. The most important thing is that this black wave is unstoppable. I don’t know how many Mongolian warriors were stabbed by their spears, and the front chest went in and the back chest came out. Almost none of the Mongolian knights who crashed into the cavalry array of the Ming army were spared!

In just one round, the Mongolian cavalry suffered a devastating blow, people shouting and screaming, and they were in a mess.The Mongolian general's eyes widened in disbelief, watching the Ming army's cavalry roll back like a tide, while the Mongolian warriors were swept up and down like grass, and felt dizzy.

God of longevity, what the hell is the Ming army's style of play, it can actually have an absolute advantage in cavalry battles!What the hell is going on in this world!
In fact, if they could go to Europe and have a look, they would know that their compatriots in Europe were defeated by the same tactics used by the Polish hussars.Charging over the wall is the desperate counterattack of the farming peoples against the nomads. This expensive but powerful tactic allows the cavalry of the farming peoples who are not good at riding for the first time to have the ability to defeat the cavalry of the nomadic peoples who are skilled in bows and horses. The traditional The dazzling halo of the cavalry was brutally shattered by the dense formation and death-defying charge on the wall, and the advantage of the nomads over the farming peoples was gone forever.
