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

Chapter 487 Decisive Battle 10
"Wind! Wind! Wind!"

A low, creepy roar suddenly sounded, overwhelming all voices on the battlefield.After the golden heavy cavalry looked away, they saw a gray metal storm suddenly whistling, whizzing heavily, passing over the Ming army's heads, covering them fiercely, and screaming loudly!Although they are all wearing heavy armor, they are invulnerable to swords and spears, but the power of the crossbow that breaks the formation is really amazing, and what they shoot is the iron bone crossbow, which doubles the power. One after another, the horses hissed in pain after being hit by an arrow, and under one blow, those heavy cavalry fell down by hundreds!
There was no time to react, and before the heavy cavalry could raise their shields, the second crossbow arrow fell down immediately, sweeping them down again.Gu Shane, who commanded the heavy cavalry to charge the battle, almost gritted his teeth. These heavy cavalry are the elite among the elites. One accurate!He hissed and roared, and took the lead in rushing towards the Ming army.Everyone knows that if they retreat or continue to stay where they are, they will only be shot into sea urchins by batches of archers from the Heluo New Army who have mastered the technique of using coordinates. The archers of the Ming army stopped shooting arrows.The Ming army in front of them only had a few hundred people. As long as they broke through this thin line of defense, they could rush into the center of the phalanx and kill those nasty archers to their heart's content.As for the horizontal sabers of the Ming army, they were not in their consideration at all. The horizontal sabers of the Heluo New Army cut iron like mud, but the infantry holding the horizontal sabers could not stop the cavalry charging at high speed no matter what!
It's just that it's a little difficult to bring up the speed of the horse now.Firstly, both men and horses were wearing heavy armor, and the burden on the horses was too heavy. After fighting for so long, their physical strength was really exhausted, and they couldn't run anymore; secondly, there were too many corpses on the ground, which formed an obstacle, and the horses wanted to run over. Not easy.But there are only a few hundred people in front of you, so it doesn't matter if you slow down, just rush over.

They stepped over the corpses and rushed over successfully.

What greeted them was hundreds of white ax lights.The huge long-handled ax weighing more than ten kilograms was raised and lowered at the same time, cutting the armor up and cutting the horse's leg down, blood and flesh flew everywhere in the direction of the ax light!
It is the heavy infantry of the Ming army!

Hundreds of hoplites stood in front of them like an iron wall!
Jiala's heart sank to the bottom of the valley all of a sudden.He knew that he could not win this battle no matter what.If the horsepower is sufficient and there are no obstacles, these hundreds of heavy infantry will be crushed into meat paste by them without any suspense, but not now, their horse speed cannot be raised now, and the cavalry that has lost its impact is very important for the heavy infantry , is a piece of meat on the chopping board, they can chop it however they like!

"withdraw----"

This shortest order was only half spoken, and a huge ax slashed down obliquely, and Jiang Jiala was really hanged on the spot.It was Xu Meng who brought him down. This muscular man swung his huge ax so loudly that he saw people chopping people up, and seeing horses splitting horses.His [-] brothers were equally brave and bravely marched forward, slashing and killing the heavy cavalry in a group.The Houjin light cavalry and infantry turned pale with fright, gave up chasing and killing the Dongjiang army, and rushed up to protect the heavy cavalry, which resulted in a more tragic massacre. Blood, in the face of such a violent slash, it is a luxury to leave a whole body.

Houjin's attack was blocked at last, and the fleeing Dongjiang army took the opportunity to regroup, and fought bravely with horizontal knives and spears, and fought with Houjin in blood and blood.

Yang Menglong secretly heaved a sigh of relief. Fortunately, the old man Qi reminded him in time and transferred Xu Meng over early. Otherwise, the defense line of the Dongjiang Army would definitely be penetrated, and the consequences would be disastrous!The current situation is: the Heluo New Army and the Sichuan Army resisted Hou Jin's attack on the front, the Dongjiang Army struggled to support the rear, and the Ming Army's cavalry, led by Lu Xiangsheng, led Hou Jin's cavalry on the battlefield Going around in circles... That's right, more than 4000 Ming army cavalry are leading seven or eight thousand Houjin cavalry to go around in circles. The flexible mobilization has put huge pressure on Houjin, and at least a quarter of the force must be allocated to defend against these Cavalry, lest they suddenly attack.Hou Jin had already experienced the impact of the Lancers on the Daling River battlefield. The impact was as fast as lightning and as sharp as a knife cutting through bamboo. It made everyone who had experienced that battle shudder. They had no interest in doing it again. !But wasting horsepower in circles like this is not an option. The lancers of the Heluo New Army only need a steel helmet and a breastplate. The total weight of the entire set of armor is only about twenty kilograms. The war horses are covered with paper armor, which is also very light. The burden is much smaller than that of the Houjin Cavalry - even their lightest cotton armor weighs about thirty kilograms. Sooner or later, Toufa will be exhausted and fall down, which is really uncomfortable.

"How much ammunition does the rocket launcher have?" he asked.

The commander of the rocket artillery force quickly reported: "It's only enough to shoot a salvo!"

There is no way to do this, the craftsmanship of this thing is not mature enough, and the output is naturally low.The most important thing is that the output of collodion is too low. There are only two or three tons of nitric acid a month. It is needed to make nitroglycerin, it is needed to make collodion, and it is used in everything. If you divide it up, there won’t be much left, and it can be used as The amount of guncotton for propellant is limited, so with the swish of the rocket launcher and a concentrated volley of fire, several hundred kilograms of guncotton will fly out, and even one salvo is considered good.Yang Menglong waved his hand and said, "Listen to my order, I will tell you to fire and then fire again!"

The commander saluted: "Understood!"

Just as he was talking, Qi Hu came over with a solemn expression and said, "My lord, Shuai Huang is here!"

Yang Menglong frowned: "Why is he here? Please!"

Huanglong did come, but instead of walking over, he was carried over.Seeing his appearance, Yang Menglong was shocked: his right arm was cut off at the elbow, several sharp arrows were stuck in his chest, his body was covered in blood, and he was seriously injured!Yang Menglong glared at Mao Yongjun and Huang Yulang who carried them over, and roared, "What did you do? Why didn't you protect Huang Shuai well!?"

Mao Yongjun and Huang Yulang bowed their heads in shame and did not speak. The bloody wounds on their bodies told Yang Menglong that they did their best.

Huang Long struggled and said, "Shuai Yang, don't blame them, it's... I rushed up by myself..."

Yang Menglong yelled: "Are you an idiot? You are the general of a town, and you should do things like charge into the battle? Why don't you think about who the hundreds of thousands of soldiers and civilians in Dongjiang will rely on in case you die!?"

Huanglong gasped and said, "I...I never knew I was so brave...Fighting with you, I'm so happy...Ho...hoho...I'm so happy..." He murmured happily, his chest heaving sharply, A stream of blood froth spewed out of his mouth, and he convulsed.

Yang Menglong called: "Military medical officer! Military medical officer!"

The military medical officer came in response, looked at Huang Long, but saw that his head had been tilted to one side, his eyes were closed, his face was still full of complacency, he couldn't help feeling a little sad, and said: "My lord, Commander Huang has already gone!"

Yang Menglong only felt that his chest was congested, and let out an angry roar: "Fuck!"

He could still curse at others when he was upset, but now Yue Tuo, Du Du, Mang Gurtai and others were about to cry.No one expected that the Ming army would be so powerful. Not only is its long-range attack ability unmatched, but its melee ability is also not inferior to that of Houjin. The clumps of rifles are constantly harvesting life. It will soon be stabbed into a hornet's nest. Although they are constantly killing and wounding the Ming army, such an exchange with a small number of people is really unbearable!The attack on the Dongjiang Army was successful at the beginning, almost piercing through the defense line of the Dongjiang Army, but the Dongjiang Army, led by Huanglong, launched an almost crazy counterattack, and then, the deadly heavy infantry came out again, The spearhead of the attack was quickly wiped out, and it turned into a terrible tug-of-war, devouring the lives of a large number of post-golden warriors every minute and every second!The performance of the Ming army could not have told these arrogant Baylors clearly: Want to break through our defense line?Okay, fill it with more than twice as many corpses!
Even though the Baylors made the greatest determination to destroy the Tianxiong Army and the Heluo New Army regardless of the cost, they still couldn't bear such heavy casualties. Hou Jin couldn't afford this kind of battle!
How to do?
Mang Gurtai grabbed Yuetuo's skirt and shouted loudly: "I can't beat him, what should I do!?"

Yue Tuo said angrily: "Chew it layer by layer, what else can I do!"

Mang Gurtai's eyes spit fire: "Eating layer after layer? According to this way of fighting, when we gnaw the defense line of the enlightened army, we will have few survivors! Moreover, their cavalry has not yet entered the battlefield!"

Yue Tuo stared at the flag not far away, his eyes were so red that he was about to spurt blood.

That flag is as black as ink, for northerners, according to the division of the five elements, it is still black.On the pitch-black battle flag, a ferocious tiger stared angrily, raised its head and roared wildly, almost coming out through the flag, tearing the rushing Houjin soldiers to pieces!Just under that battle flag, the baby-faced boy who had suffered him such a shame and humiliation on the banks of the Daling River was solemnly dispatching troops, the Heluo New Army, the Denglai New Army, the Sichuan Army, the Tianxiong Army, Dongjiang Army... Countless elite soldiers obeyed his orders, and they were replenished to the front line where the fighting was the most brutal, and they died without hesitation.This guy seemed destined to be Houjin's nemesis. But in all the battles he participated in, the fierceness of the Ming army's fighting, tenacity of will, and high fighting spirit were unprecedented.

Yang Menglong, are you really my Daikin’s nemesis, destined to destroy my Daikin’s hegemony?
I just don't believe in this evil!
Yue Tuo suddenly yelled, raised his saber, and rushed towards Yang Menglong's general flag with [-] white armored soldiers!
