Jueluo Baishan felt that the Ming army cavalry in front of him should be a relatively large patrol. Only the well-equipped Ming army elite cavalry dared to come out to investigate at this time.

This patrol must be caught up and eliminated. The Ming army does not have many elite cavalry. It is much better to eliminate them now while their numbers are small than to confront them head-on on the battlefield in the future.

Seeing that this patrol was trying to escape, Kyolopaishan immediately ordered a chase. They must be eliminated before they escape into Pyongyang City to prepare for the upcoming battle of Pyongyang.

The 1,200 red-armored Baya La troops under him are elites carefully selected by Nurhaci from the Eight Banners. They are the best among the Eight Banners in terms of equipment and physical fitness. In normal times, Nurhaci uses them as personal soldiers.

use.

During the Battle of Hunhe River, they were the first to break through the military formation of the White Guards. And on the second day, they continued to break through the military formation of the Qi Army. Their steel swords were stained with the blood of these two powerful soldiers.

.

This time when he entered North Korea to fight, Nurhaci wanted to capture Pyongyang in one fell swoop. As long as he captured North Korea, he would not only have an extra place to replenish food and fodder, but also have a stable rear when attacking the Ming Dynasty.

So this time Nurhaci not only sent out two blue flags, but also sent veteran general Jueluo Baishan to lead the red-armored Baya La army to help out.

Man Gui ran desperately in front, and the Red Jia Baya La Army behind them chased with all their might. The horses of the Red Jia Baya La Army were all first-rate, but Man Gui's horses were not so good. Five

Where can I get so many good war horses? It would be great if I could get a war horse.

Relying on the advantage of their horses, the red-armored Baya La army pursued them closer and closer. Seeing that they were within shooting distance of their bows and arrows, the red-armored Baya La army drew out their bows and arrows one after another. The arrows shot over like raindrops, and Mangui felt his back

He was hit hard. His spine hurt so much that he quickly lowered his body. Another arrow hit his helmet, making a "ding" sound.

Fortunately, the helmet was very strong and actually deflected the arrow. Otherwise, Mangui would have been shot through the head.

Many of Mangui's men were also hit by arrows. Fortunately, their armors were strong enough. Otherwise, many men would have been lost before the battle began. The red-armored Baya La Army was indeed well-deserved for its elite reputation.

"Run quickly! Our military formation is ahead. As long as you enter the military formation, you will be safe." Man Gui's shout was drowned by the thunderous sound of horse hooves. Except for a few people around him, no one could hear him.

What was he talking about.

Li Xiao's nervous palms were sweating, but he still stood at the front of the military formation. His arms were straightened and his thumbs were raised high. He was constantly estimating the distance to the red-armored Baya army!

Seven hundred steps, a trebuchet is not very accurate at this distance. But if they don't launch, Man Gui and the others are likely to be overtaken. The two armies are entangled together, and when the time comes to launch the bomb, they will only be killed together with Man Gui.

"First group, maximum throwing distance. Launch!" Li Xiao said through gritted teeth. The leader of the red-armored Ba Ya La army was only a hundred or two hundred steps away from Man Gui.

Upon hearing Li Xiao's instructions, the drummer and trumpeter behind him immediately blew the horn in his hand.

The sounds on the battlefield are very messy, and only the sound of drums, horns and gongs can be transmitted clearly enough. Li Xiao thought of this during training. There are three groups of trebuchets. The sound of the horn represents the launch of the first group, and the sound of the war drums

The sound of the gong represents the second group, and the sound of the gong represents the third group. The distance of the launch is represented by the rhythm of the sound. This is the result of several months of training, and Ao Canghai has put in a lot of hard work.

All gunners do not need to listen to the commander's orders, as long as they hear the voice that corresponds to them, they will launch the trebuchet! There is a red flag erected next to the trebuchet. When the red flag is raised, it means that the loading is complete. When the red flag is lowered, it means that the loading is in progress.

.

Li Xiao, who was standing on top of the carriage, could tell which team was ready to shoot with just one glance.

"Bang", "bang", "bang"...! The first group of ten trebuchets launched together, and ten smoking bombs flew out.

Just as Man Gui felt arrows constantly hitting him and his horses, he felt something flying past his head with a "swish". Before Man Gui could react, a long series of dense explosions came from behind him.

Voice.

Seven hundred steps, although the trebuchet is not very accurate. Fortunately, the power of the nitrocellulose-charged bomb cannot be underestimated. The huge explosion will shoot countless shrapnel, lead, steel balls and other metal particles around.

The armor of the red-armored Baya Lajun was shattered into pieces by the small metals fired by the laser. The filled smoke instantly engulfed the more than two hundred cavalrymen who rushed in front. The soldiers who successfully escaped from the smoke

, less than fifty people. Even among these fifty people, most of them were covered in blood.

Although some people were lucky enough not to be hit by shrapnel, the powerful blast wave still made their heads dizzy. Black blood flowed out of everyone's ears.

Jueluo Baishan felt nervous. Could it be that the Ming army on the opposite side had artillery? The charging team wanted to stop, but the charging team could not stop so easily. His shouts were completely covered by the thunderous sound of horse hooves.

Even his own soldiers couldn't hear clearly what he said.

Under the influence of inertia, the war horses are still charging forward crazily. Now Jueluo Baishan hates the thoroughbred war horses of the Red Jia Baya La Army. Ordinary war horses will be frightened when they hear such an explosion. Then they will scatter in all directions.

If you run around, you will never run towards the explosion.

But the war horses of the Red Jia Baya Army are the best war horses of the Jurchens. These war horses are naturally not afraid of loud noises or even swords. As long as they charge, they will be faced with mountains of swords and seas of fire, and they will move forward indomitably.

It is because of the characteristics of these war horses that the red-armored Baya La Army defeated the well-organized Ming army formations time and time again. But this time, the indomitable war horses will eventually send them to hell.

When the war drums sounded, the gunners of the second group immediately knocked the hammers in their hands without thinking.

"Bang" "Bang" "Bang"...!

There was a burst of intensive firing, and the second group of ten trebuchets fired again.

Smokey bombs once again flew over Man Gui's head, and the first wave of smoke had not yet dissipated. The second wave of bombs had already fallen, and there was another series of dense explosions.

Li Xiao, who was on the carriage, even saw a large living person being blown up by the explosion. Of course, only the upper body flew up, while the lower body remained on the horse that was full of wounds.

Some Tatar soldiers were hit in the eyes by shrapnel, and their miserable howls even drowned out the sound of explosions.

Li Xiao also didn't expect that the explosion of just fifteen pounds of nitrocellulose would produce such great power. Those small metal fragments formed an iron curtain centered on the explosion point. All people and people within the explosion range were killed.

The horses were all beaten into a sieve.

Even a war horse with strong muscles and bones could not withstand the explosion of chemical gunpowder. Near the explosion point, a pile of human and horse corpses fell.

Man Gui finally returned to the military formation, and someone rushed forward. Helping the injured knight to dismount, Man Gui asked someone to pull out the seven or eight arrows stuck in his back. Some of the arrows had penetrated the armor and entered the army.

The flesh is a full inch deep. Fortunately, the silk lining makes it easier to pull out the arrow. Otherwise, you would have to use a knife to open the wound.

"Help me mount the horse!" Man Gui ordered someone to put on his armor again and roared.

After so many years of fighting, this is the first time I have been chased in such a panic. If it weren't for the strong armor, I would have been shot into a hedgehog.

"Master Man! Your injury...!"

"Stop talking nonsense and help me get on the horse. Otherwise I will chop you down!" Man Gui was holding a cleaver in his hand and his eyes were as fierce as a tiger's.

No one dares to refuse Man Gui at this time, this guy will really kill people when he is crazy. And whether it is the enemy or one of his own!

"Ready! Release!" While Man Gui was roaring, Ao Canghai was giving orders. Man Gui finally entered the military formation, and finally there were no more of his own men in his shooting range.

Following Ao Canghai's order, the matchlocks crackled. It seemed like a long string of firecrackers were set off. More than 300 Tatar cavalry who rushed two hundred steps away from the opposite side immediately fell like dumplings.

Get off your horse!

The musketeers connected almost seamlessly. The first row immediately retreated after firing. Then the second row fired, and then the third row. After the third row fired, the first row had already reloaded.

There were more than 300 Tatar cavalrymen, but by the time they reached the fifty paces, there were less than ten people left.

Mangui and his brothers rushed out of the military formation like tigers. What they were about to face was the elite red-armored Baya La Army - nine of them, four of whom were shot and were half-dead.

immediately.

In addition to these nine people, the Tatar soldier closest to them was also 800 steps away.

More than a hundred people surrounded nine disabled people and slashed at them. If they were lucky, they could chop them off twice. If they were unlucky, they could only trample them twice with their horses. There was no other way. The cavalry of Pidao was so helpless. They also

I want to have a fight with the Tatar soldiers with real swords and guns, but the conditions really don't allow it.

"Separate! Separate! Attack their left and right wings!" Nurhachi personally handed over to his 1,200 red armored troops, but half of them were killed in the blink of an eye.

Jueluo Baishan's heart was bleeding. The best result after returning from this battle was to commit suicide to apologize. Now they didn't think about anything else. They just wanted to support the Ming soldiers on the opposite side before they died.

Years of battlefield experience told him that it was very difficult to defeat such a Ming army formation from the front. However, their two wings were very weak. As long as they penetrated from both wings, these cowardly Ming army would become the ghosts under his sword.

Find the leading generals of the Ming army and drag them alive into pieces with horses. Or cut them into pieces with a knife and serve them to me!
