After almost three sides of the infantry formation of the Dengzhou Army, the Mongolian cavalry running around the Dengzhou Army, actually slowed down.

The Mongolian cavalry on the left wing surrounded the Dengzhou army with a very sparse formation, but the distance was always outside the range of the muskets. The Korean musket soldiers and Han infantry walking towards the front were still enduring the massacre of artillery, although the Korean musket soldiers were walking in front as meat shields.

But in order to supervise the battle, the Korean soldiers were next to the array of Han soldiers, and the artillery fire was constantly increasing.

Li Rui, the leader of the Han army, who received the reward, had no regard for the sympathy of his fellow tribes. Even if the infantry of the Han Eight Banners were staggering, they would be immediately taken out by his personal soldiers to engage in military law.

The Eight Banners of Han were indigenous people outside the pass for many years. It can even be said that they were Manchu Han people. The officers of the Eight Banners of Han, large and small, had a connection with the relatives of the Eight Banners of Manchuria. In their eyes, Li Rui from the Sanshun King system was also a foreigner from the lower-class ethnic group.

At this time, he rode on their heads and drove them to the other party's iron hell to die. Someone immediately became furious and wanted to make it clear that the soldiers were also nervous and wanted to take action.

What they did not expect was that in order to maintain the authority of Li Rui, Abatai actually sent his and Yue Le's guards. The status of these guards was similar to that of the personal soldiers of the generals of the Ming Dynasty, and they meant to be the decision for their masters.

Several Han Eight Banners commanders who were a little disobedient and questioned were all killed by these personal soldiers of the Faryala. This made the officers and soldiers of the Han Eight Banners who thought they were different from the Sanshun King and the Korean soldiers finally realized that they were no different, they were just cannon fodders who were sacrificed.

The shooting of ten field artillery caused great damage to the Korean soldiers and the Han army, but in this era, the killing caused by the landing point and the moving line after the artillery bolts jumped is line killing. For arrays that are as open as possible and relatively sparse, there is no defeat.

At least the front three rows of North Korean musketeers were intact. The fallen people formed a gap and were immediately replenished by the soldiers driven up from behind.

"Military gun soldiers, come forward!!"

The firearms commander behind the array in front made loud orders. The musket soldiers of the Dengzhou army held muskets and moved forward in big strides. The array of musket soldiers required to remain neat. However, the degree was worse than the spear phalanx.

After five rounds of artillery fire, almost 400 Korean musketeers and Han soldiers died under the cannon. Almost the same number of people lost their combat effectiveness. If it were normal, more than 20% of the casualties, and the miserable shouts, broken limbs and bloody arms, the psychological pressure of hearing would have long caused them to collapse. Especially for this kind of servant army that had no fighting will.

But at this time, there is still a little way forward. If you don’t move forward, you will be slaughtered by the local supervising team or the Manchu and Mongolian cavalry. The two options are placed in front of you, and a strong army that is moving forward is forced to look like an indomitable force.

The infantry's march was always much faster than the heavy vans. After the firing of the artillery team for five rounds, the Tartar infantry had basically entered the limit of shooting. Strictly speaking, it was OK to use artillery here. But the range of the opponent's musket was about to be enough.

Compared with the flat cannons and muskets, the guns are within each other's range. The advantage of the cannons is not too great, especially if the other party is not a reckless man who uses cold weapons to rush to the position, and the shotgun cannot be used.

So at this point, the artillery soldiers had stopped shooting, and their sight had been blocked by the front row of musketeers to deal with the Korean musketeers. They were using the Dengzhou Army's own musketeers.

"Step forward ten steps!!"

The firearm commander estimated the distance between the two armies and issued orders to move. He estimated that he would enter the range and both sides would have to take about fifteen or twenty steps. At that time, the speed of the musketeers in Jiaozhou camp would definitely be faster than the timid Korean soldiers on the opposite side. This is the key to victory.

Unexpectedly, after ten steps forward, the North Korean musket soldiers' fronts were already standing, squatting or standing, and began to fire muskets here.

The quality control of the muskets in Jiaozhou Camp is extremely strict. Not only the muskets, but each weapon is engraved with the number of the manufacturing craftsman, but also the work number of the inspector and the work number of the second random checker. If a weapon has a problem, report it and investigate it layer by layer, and everyone can be chased.

The quality of weapons is of enviable reward for the enviable quality of craftsmen, but after making mistakes, many punishments are related to beheading.

The high rewards and severe punishments naturally ensure the quality of the Jiaozhou camp firearms. Therefore, the firearm commander of the Jiaozhou camp is extremely confident in his own muskets. Any army he encounters that uses muskets cannot compare with the Jiaozhou camp in terms of range and power.

Unexpectedly, the opponent's musket soldiers stopped shooting first. Could it be that the North Korean musket had a long range, and the firearm commander hesitated a little, and the opposite side was already filled with a burst of beans, and smoke filled with gunpowder. The firearm commander suddenly felt tight in his heart, thinking that a large casualties were about to appear.

But the result was funny. Only four or five were falling down by Dengzhou military musketeers, only one of whom was dead, and the rest were injured.

So that's the case, the problems committed by the Korean musketeers on the opposite side were the same as those committed by the Ming army. In such a war, they were already scared and were also out of range.

"Step forward, five steps!!" "Stand firm!!" "Prepare to shoot!" "Prepare to!!"

"Open fire!!!"

The firearm commander behind the front issued orders loudly. The more he was in such an occasion, the more calm and sober he had to keep his orders. He clearly issued orders of step by step. During training, he had already mechanically followed the firearm soldiers who were practicing the movements and training the cost-effectiveness of the firearms.

The fire order was the real death roar. The power of the front line was strengthened, and the five rows of musket soldiers fired in the next order.

When each row of firearms fired, the North Korean musket soldiers who were still busy loading medicine were knocked down in a row, and they were just watching the close combat from a distance. The ability of musket soldiers in Jiaozhou camp could not be used. The current musket soldiers fight really made people feel the power of the dead iron-blooded storm.

In fact, when the third row of muskets began to fire, the North Korean musket soldiers had already collapsed, but the formation was so tight that it was not just about running. The dense array of Jiaozhou Camp ensured that the shooting firepower was equally dense. The North Korean musket soldiers fell in large numbers.

This dense volleyball ferry even completely penetrated the Korean soldiers' array. Many Han Eight Banners infantry in the back row were swept by the steel storm and fell to the ground.

"My boys, Han Gou's musket has been shot. Let's rush in and kill them all!!!"

Li Rui immediately saw that the five rows of muskets on the opposite side were instantly fired. The instantaneous killing caused by dense firepower was indeed amazing, but there was no protection from the spear platoon. What was the musket soldiers who fired the bullets in front of the soldiers holding swords and guns? It was the fish waiting to be put into the pot.

The eight banners of Han and the Sanshun Kings were attacked by the opponent's cannons and swept by the fire of the muskets as they were just advancing. They were indeed suppressing a fire in their hearts. This was the best time to exude this anger. With this force, they rushed forward and completely defeated, or at least they would disrupt the increasingly strict Ming army formation in front of them.

The Tartar infantry holding weapons howled loudly and rushed over. Apart from the corpse, there was a smooth road in the middle. They just ran away with their feet. But these beasts with red eyes found that they could not run at all, because not everyone was running forward, some were moving forward, some were moving backward, some were moving forward, some were moving forward, and some were moving left.

The passionate Han army leader Li Rui focused all his attention on the Dengzhou army line directly in front. When he found that the expected charge in the middle ground did not have the effect of flood tilting, he noticed that the left wing of the Han infantry had been broken by the impact of the Ming cavalry on the opposite side.

The more than a thousand cavalry that had been in the upper right wing of the Dengzhou Army were insignificant in front of the more than 20,000 cavalry teams of Manchuria and Mongolia, and in battle, they were not suitable for cavalry, either for light cavalry or oars. The Mongolian cavalry that had just started to rush out as if they were opening the gate to release floodwaters.

This small group of cavalry dared not move. The biggest possibility of rashly blocking the movements of the Mongolian cavalry like a tide is to be crushed by the tide.

Because the cavalry of Dengzhou Army did not move and did not dare to move, many people have ignored this force. Strictly speaking, cavalry is still the strongest and most mobile in this unit. Good steel must naturally be used on the blade, and this is the time to use it.

The Mongolian horse team launched a large-scale move, and the infantry of the Tartar Central Army rushed into a state of hand-to-hand combat, and the distance between the Manchu horse team on the right wing was also wide. The Han infantry of the Qing army was in a sense, and after suffering previous blows, although it was a depressing aura erupted.

But this morale explosion is extremely fragile. It only takes a little external force to turn this explosion into a collapse, let alone a flank attack that is not very prepared.

The soldiers of Jiaozhou Camp were equipped with long swords and big axes, which were the cavalry and cavalry teams. At such a short distance, they could not accelerate the charge, so they could only jog in front of them and chop them.

In a sense, this condescending chopping will shock the enemy's psychology, let alone on the flank of weak defense.

The Han soldiers who had just raised some fighting spirit were rushed by these condescending cavalry. In an instant, their morale collapsed completely. Infringement infantry against the cavalry. If they were not defeated by the cavalry and followed by the massacre, the only way was to form a strict and dense formation - just as the Dengzhou army did at this time.

But halfway through the charge, everyone ran wildly, and the front line had long been scattered. However, the cavalry of the Dengzhou Army rushed in at this critical moment, and the timing was extremely accurate, which completely defeated the attack of the frontal infantry.

It is one thing to be strict in military discipline, but it is another thing to be collapsed. Everyone was just caring about their lives to escape at this time, and they were thinking about how to punish military discipline. The Han army leader Li Rui and his directly-affiliated supervising team could not stop this time.

Originally, the people from the Sanshun King system were still slashing and killing there, but they could not hold on for a while. The completely collapsed Han Eight Banners soldiers and Korean musket soldiers began to slash and kill with the supervision team, and their internal internals were already in chaos.

Now, right in front of the Dengzhou Army, the attack of the Tartar army infantry has been completely defeated. But the situation has also become a mess.

The cavalry of the Dengzhou Army, the Eight Banners of the Tartars, the infantry of the Sanshun King system, and the Korean musketeers were mixed together, and the musketeers of the Jiaozhou Camp were already too far away from the formation...

The Mongolian light cavalry on the left, right and back three sides of the Dengzhou Army were about to surround the Mongolian light cavalry from left to right, and the movement of the entire brigade was getting slower and slower, and the cavalry in the movement gradually turned, and the horses gradually headed towards the array of the Dengzhou Army in Jiaozhou Ying. The cavalry brigade that was still circling just now. At this time, it became more and more silent and quiet, with a bit of a half-dead smell.

The sun was already westward, and the Dengzhou army won the battle step by step, but from top to bottom, no one felt relaxed and proud. From Zhao Neng to ordinary soldiers, everyone became increasingly nervous and afraid, and won the battles again and again. The morale had decreased.

The ordered general Abatai, who had been observing the situation of the war, waved his hand fiercely, and the drums that had been silent for a long time rang out.

After the Mongolian cavalry that had been laid on three sides of the Dengzhou army heard the sound of drums, they slightly adjusted the direction of their horses, and it had become almost the same just now.

In the queue gradually calmed down, a huge noise suddenly broke out. Each Mongolian cavalry shouted loudly, urging horses to rush towards the Dengzhou military formation inside the interior.

Except for the slap soldiers and musket soldiers in the three directions of the Dengzhou Army have long been ready for the other three directions.

Seeing the Mongolian cavalry shouting and rushing up, the musket soldiers from various fronts immediately opened fire under the command of the officers. The formation was sparse enough, but the cavalry in front still fell to the ground, but in fact, there were not many injuries. The horses' running around and running had already heated up the horses.

At this time, the horses can reach the fastest speed in a very short time. The cavalry in the front row fell down, and the cavalry behind didn't care at all. They just leaped over with their horses and rushed forward, because the mass of the people and horses was extremely high and the inertia was also quite large.

After running fast, it is extremely difficult to turn around. Moreover, people are group animals, and almost more than 10,000 people launched a charge at the same time. Every cavalry thought that there were so many companions around me. The probability of my being hit must be much smaller. I was consciously very safe, and so many people charged. Even if I wanted to turn around, I would be knocked to death by my comrades behind me and my surroundings.

The Eight Mongolian Banners are the same system as the Eight Manchurian Banners. It is natural to say that the orders are issued and implemented. However, the herdsmen who followed them on the grassland were also encouraged. Korchin Beile Tulichen, who has a noble bloodline, sent someone to preach:

"Everyone comes to this helpless Ming country, and everyone has snatched a lot of good things. If they don't defeat the Han army, not only will they not be able to take away the things they stolen, but they may even lose their lives in this foreign country. Think about it, on the grassland, there are still parents, wives and children waiting for you, and fight to the death, and gain more wealth and even fame in this battle!!"

Being in a foreign country is equivalent to a desperate situation, the robbery of gold, silver, treasures and more money is temptation, parents, wives and wives are young, and this is family affection.

In such an environment, there are various factors that encourage them. These Mongolian herders are red and ready to fight to the death. Although they are herders, they are nations that live on horseback all day long and can shoot arrows, which is enough in battle.

If all the above cannot force them to charge, there will be vicious and evil spirits on their periphery, and the Eight Mongolian Banners, which have been trained in a rich military manner, is also a kind of supervisory team.

Many soldiers were panicked by the Mongolian cavalry surrounding and running. The fuse on the bird's beak was extinguished. Some were already shooting and were busy loading ammunition. This was the case before the Mongolian cavalry charged, which left a gap in itself when the charge.

The shooting in the second row would not be good, and there were many mistakes. The soldiers who had little experience on the battlefield still had enough calmness and confidence when facing servants like Korean musketeers and Han soldiers. However, if they faced a large barbarian horse team with a tide, many people began to panic.

In the first round of shooting, there were already cavalrymen rushing to the front. Fortunately, they were killed by non-commissioned officers and some musketeers who did not fire. However, when the first round of shooting was loaded, the Mongolian cavalry had already rushed to a close enough distance. Those Mongolian cavalry who had the courage to charge were supervising the battle behind, and the attack methods in the front were exactly the same as those Abatai ordered.

They just took the bow and arrow and shot it in the direction of the enemy in front, without considering any accuracy. However, these Mongolian cavalry bent their bows and arrows to aim at the ground, which was a dense infantry platoon. Just like that, even if they threw out the clusters of arrows and bows in their hands, they could hit people.

This moment proves that the word "arrow rain" mentioned in literary works is not a gorgeous rhetoric, but a real situation.

The musket soldiers standing in the front were shot down a lot. The array of musket soldiers became sparse. The Mongolian cavalry, who were still a little scared, suddenly became bolder, and the horses were still charging forward. They all pulled out and played and picked up wooden guns.

"Retreat!!! Go to the spear phalanx!!!"

The main forces of the Dengzhou Army's musket soldiers were placed on the front. They could list about five rows of formations against the Korean musket soldiers. However, on the other three sides, there were only two rows.

The artillery, cavalry and most of the musket soldiers were arranged in front. Of course, Zhao Neng and the Dengzhou Army and the local generals were not idiots, and the other three sides were indeed weak. According to their idea, the enemy attacked from the front, so they naturally had to arrange most of the power on the front.

If the other three sides are attacked, the forces arranged in front will make timely maneuver and go to other directions to respond to emergency situations.

But Abatai seemed to have a stiff tactical action just now. It gave people a misunderstanding, that is, the Tartar army would only test the troops and troops on the front, and there was no change. As long as the front and front attacks were resolved, everything would be fine. This battle might be fought like this until the Dengzhou army won.

However, after the North Korean musket soldiers were sent out, the Dengzhou army lacked mobility. They could only deal with the front row's advantageous musket soldiers, and in order to defeat this huge infantry, the cavalry team had to be arranged.

The battle in front of the army entangled the superior troops of the Dengzhou army on the battlefield, and then the Mongolian horse team launched an attack, relying on the advantage of numbers and maneuverability to break through the three thin musket barriers on the outer circle of the Dengzhou army.

Zhao Neng also saw the chaos on the other three sides, but now he could not divide his troops to rescue. The distance between the musket soldiers in front and the spear platoon was too far. Moreover, the musket soldiers' front line was not difficult, but it would be difficult to retreat at the same speed. The enemy infantrymen who had not completely disintegrated might come back with their butts.

Not to mention that the Eight Banners Cavalry, which have gradually been arranged into large groups, have been in the array without moving, which has caused the troops in front to be mobilized and the tactical arrangements should be more cautious.

The cavalry that had just been slashed and killed finally gathered back to Zhao Neng's original formation. At present, this cavalry is used to fill the too large gap between the musket soldiers and the spear platoon to avoid being inserted into this gap by the enemy on both sides and the opposite side.

In the other three directions, each firearm commander issued the same order according to the requirements of the training and training. All the musket soldiers immediately retreated into the gap between the spear phalanx and let the spear soldiers deal with the rushing cavalry.

The Mongolian cavalry were probably not enough for the sudden retreat of the Ming army. They were going to slow down the horses before the collision, but they didn't expect that the musket soldiers who were a little panicked but brave just now suddenly ran towards the inner circle, and they wanted to beat the horses again and accelerate.

After the first round of arrows, each Mongolian cavalry began to wield their weapons and charge, rushing towards the already somewhat panicked Dengzhou army formation. With such charge speed, it was difficult for the knights on the horse to pull the bow and shoot the arrow. They could only stretch the weapon forward as much as possible and lie on the horse as much as possible.

Now they are facing the spear team, and the officers of the Dengzhou Army in Jiaozhou Ying shouted loudly and ordered:

"Spike, resist horses!!"

The spears were laid flat one after another, and the soldiers on the outermost edge shouted to cheer themselves up:

"For parents, Shandong, the commander, and the Ming Dynasty!"

From the outer edges on three sides to the center, from ordinary soldiers holding spears to Zhao Neng who was nervously commanding, everyone shouted loudly:

"For the Grand Marshal, for the Ming Dynasty!"
Chapter completed!
