Chapter 476

In the Horseshoe Hall, Hong Chengchou seized the weakness of Ming’s few soldiers and launched a general attack.

The Qing army infantry successfully restrained the Ming army on the hills on both sides of the chariot formation, making it impossible for the Ming army to reinforce, and blocked the Qing army's Ming army in the middle of the road.

Originally, the firepower on three sides was strangled, and as the mountaintops were unable to take care of themselves, only the Ming army on the front was left to resist tenaciously.

Hong Chengchou first bombarded the wooden wall formed by the Ming army with artillery, and then used a cavalry with powerful impact to directly rush to the front of the Ming army.

The heavy cavalry of the Qing army rolled in iron hooves, and the earth was shaking and the mountain was shaking. Yu Guowang stood in the anti-cannon tunnel and immediately drew his sword and roared, "Raising the spear, defend!"

The Ming soldiers jumped out of the tunnel one after another, saying that the spears were mounted on the chariot and the gap destroyed by artillery shells. The Ming spearmen were arranged in a formation and heard the officer shouting loudly, "Squat! Thorn!"

The Ming army commander spearman held the gun on the ground, squatted down, and the spear head was slanted, and the cold light shone like a steel forest.

"Mountain!" The Ming soldiers roared together, and the gun formation was ready to welcome the attack of the Qing cavalry.

With a loud "boom", the Qing cavalry, whose only two small front legs were leaking from the front of the horse, suddenly collided with the Ming army's gun formation.

The sharp spear directly pierced the vest on the horse's chest, pierced the horse's neck from the front, and poked the Qing army riding to death. The war horses and cavalry corpses were strung together, and hot blood gushed out like a spring, and the scene was shocking.

The Qing cavalry were stabbed to death one after another, but the huge impact force still rushed to the tail of the gun on the ground, rubbing it backwards, leaving a long groove mark on the ground, and the cavalry behind continued to hit, and the spear broke, and the Ming soldiers were immediately knocked away by the huge impact force of the war horses.

The subsequent cavalry of the Qing army continued to hit the Ming army's front, like a huge hammer hitting the wall, and the Ming army's front was immediately sunk.

"Let me go!" Yu Guowang immediately roared when he saw this, and the musketeer behind the spear formation immediately raised the musket.

"Bang bang bang" a gun sounded, and gun smoke filled the air. The Qing soldiers riding on the horse became targets and fell off their horses one after another.

In an instant, the Qing cavalry was blocked by a spear and was killed by a musket at close range. The knight immediately had blood mist, and the losses increased significantly.

Under the Qing army's flag, Hong Chengchou watched the Qing army's charge and had to admit that Zhao Zamao was a strong enemy of the Qing army, and the impact of the Qing army's heavy cavalry was already weak in the future.

Among the Ming army, there were definitely very few troops who could take over the attacks of the Qing cavalry, and the scene in front of him reminded him of the Battle of Hunhe that took place decades ago outside the pass.

At this time, the cavalry that rushed to the formation had lost its impact. The Ming army's muskets kept firing, knocking down the cavalry. The cavalry that lost its speed had become a target.

"The heavy cavalry reorganized its formation, and the light cavalry stepped forward to chaotic formation!" Hong Chengchou did not expect that the Ming army could actually catch the impact of the heavy cavalry of the Qing army, so he waved his hand and ordered again: "The artillery continues to bombard!"

More than a thousand Mongolian light cavalry immediately galloped out, and the Qing heavy cavalry failed to open the Ming army's front. With the sound of horns, they pulled their horses to detour on both sides, rushed to the foot of the hill, and re-arranged.

"Reorganize the formation quickly!" Yu Guowang saw the Qing cavalry retreating, and immediately shouted loudly.

In the military formation, the doctors hurried forward and held the injured Ming soldiers backwards, while the spearmen in the back row quickly filled the vacancy.

At this time, the Qing army artillery raised its elevation angle and fired shells "boom boom" and crossed the heads of the Qing cavalry and landed in the Ming army formation. The Ming army was killed when it touched and suffered heavy losses.

At this time, the Ming army hurriedly formed a new formation among the mud pillars with shells splashing, but the Qing cavalry arrived again.

This time it was the Qing army's light cavalry. They slapped their bows and arrows while galloping, and a rain of black arrows suddenly fell from the sky.

Almost before the Qing army fired the archery, the Ming army muskets were re-arranged. In an instant, the black rain of arrows fell into the Ming army formation. The diamond-shaped armor-breaking heavy arrows tore through the Ming army's armor. The Ming army musketeers immediately screamed and fell down one after another, while the Qing army's light cavalry bumped into the splashed projectiles and fell like a date.

At this time, the Qing army's light cavalry rushed to the Ming army formation and did not attack the Ming army's spear formation. Instead, they were divided into two parts, and left and right avoided the front of the Ming army, rushed to the hills on both sides, and reorganized the team.

Just as the light cavalry retreated in a roundabout way, the Qing heavy cavalry, which had reorganized the hillside, suddenly rushed down again.

Han Dai took the lead and roared loudly, "Eight Banners Warriors, follow me again!"

The Qing army's heavy cavalry launched another attack of earth-shaking mountains when the light cavalry evacuated. With a "boom", it hit the Ming army's spear formation again. This time, the spear formation was bombarded by artillery and was attacked by the light cavalry arrows. The formation was a bit riot, and the Ming army's spear soldiers were immediately knocked away.

"Form a formation and block the Qing dog for me!" Yu Guowang roared loudly.

The Qing cavalry heavy cavalry evacuated again, and as soon as the heavy cavalry retreated, the light cavalry ran down the hill again and shot locust-like arrows to the Ming army's front.

The Eight Banners soldiers and the heavy armored cavalry and the light cavalry cooperated in close cooperation, one raided the enemy and the other repeatedly attacked.

The Qing army was a heavy hammer, constantly hitting the Ming army's front. The entire front had been severely sunk inward under repeated impacts and had no time to recover.

The impact of cavalry and the bombardment of cannons made the soldiers of a thousand Ming soldiers gradually feel a little scared.

"Commander, you can't defend it anymore! Retreat!" The Qing cavalry's impact arrived in the blink of an eye. The Ming army's spearmen were killed and injured under the repeated impact, leaving only spear soldiers, standing with spears, obviously unable to stop the next wave of impact, and the officers immediately shouted in pain.

Yu Guowang looked up and saw countless Qing army cavalry in front of him, and again, the ground was covered with human corpses and horse corpses, and there were not many Ming soldiers standing in front of them.

The earth was trembling. When the Ming soldiers saw the rushing cavalry and knew that the stop was failed, many Ming soldiers closed their eyes in despair.

Under the Qing army's banner, Hong Chengchou stared at the battlefield, knowing that there was no next charge, and this time, he could completely eliminate the enemy in front of him. He slowly pulled out the sword from his waist, showed a smug smile on his face, pointed the sword forward, and shouted loudly, "All soldiers of the army, follow the hall to kill him."

After speaking, Hong Chengchou was about to rush out first, but suddenly a burst of horn sound came from behind the Ming army's front, as if a storm suddenly blew up, sweeping across the entire hill.

At this critical moment, Zhao Ming finally led reinforcements and rushed behind the Ming army.

In an instant, the whip raised by Hong Chengchou was stiff in the air. He heard the horn coming from behind the Ming army. His face looked complicated and speechless for a moment. After a while, he sighed, "God is so will!"
