The ruthless emperor in the late Ming Dynasty forced Chongzhen to abdicate at the beginning

Chapter 277

"Drumming!"

As Huang Degong slowly pulled out the long knife at his waist, dozens of big drums were thumped by hammers.

Under the sound of rumbling drums, more than 2 soldiers of the Ming army were stimulated with blood rushing up, their eyes were like bloodthirsty beasts, and they held the weapons in their hands tightly.

Most of the more than 2 Ming troops did not exceed 25. It was the time when they were young, coupled with the usual rigorous training, good food, and ideological education every night, their minds were full of killing the enemy to serve the country, killing the enemy meritorious service.

At this moment, the strong fighting spirit that erupted far surpassed that of the Qin and Han troops in the past. Not only did they not have the slightest fear of war and killing in their hearts, but they had an incomparable desire.

This is a group of determined, well-trained, well-equipped killing machines that are always ready for war.

"Chariot charge!"

Under the waving of the command flag, 300 light and medium-sized tricycles rushed forward under the control of the emperor, and the tall wheels spun quickly, rolling over the grass, splashing dirt and grass countless.

Under the canopy of the chariot, a halberdman holding a nearly two-foot-long halberd was ready to harvest.

There is only one halberd on the light chariot, and one on the left and one on the medium chariot. All the chariots are full of sharp blades, like hedgehogs.

The 300 chariots lined up, divided into two rows, staggered from each other, and galloped at high speed in a short time.

"Warriors, let these Han people know who is the king on the grassland, kill me!"

"Kill!"

Agula also pulled out the scimitar from his waist, and with a ferocious scream, he rushed forward with more than 3 tribesmen, all of whom were also stimulated with blood boiling and screaming strangely.

However, Agula also knew that these chariots were not easy to mess with, and that head-to-head encounters would result in big losses, so the cavalry team was quickly divided into three, 1 people faced the frontal chariots, and the remaining [-] were one on the left and one on the right. Detour from both sides, ready to attack the Han infantry phalanx and cavalry.

boom!
The [-] cavalrymen of the Tuxietu Department in the front collided with the chariot first. For a while, the people who hit them turned their backs on their backs and screamed again and again.

In the cavalry battalion of the Ming army, [-] cavalrymen quickly followed up and rushed up. When the cavalry of the Tuxietu tribe were thrown into disorder by the chariot, they rampaged and harvested the Mongolian cavalry frantically.

The frontal battlefield fell into a chaotic battle, and the left and right wings were also about to engage in battle. Battelle led [-] people from the clan, bypassed the frontal battlefield, and launched a charge towards the infantry battalion of the Ming army.

The remaining more than 1 ethnic groups bypassed from the right and ran directly to Huang Degong's command banner.

Huang Degong's position, surrounded by only 300 four-wheeled heavy tanks, more than 300 soldiers, and more than 200 command and communication personnel, was obviously regarded as a soft persimmon by Agula.

It's a pity that although heavy chariots are not suitable for charging, they are perfect for defense. At this time, three hundred heavy chariots are intertwined with each other, like a huge maze. Three thousand heavily armed infantry cooperate with each other, relying on the maze, will The cavalry who rushed in were unable to fight back.

As for the five thousand Tumed cavalry, they watched the battle from the rear, and Huang Degong did not let them go into battle.

"Fire arrows!"

Huang Degong was backed by chariots, so he was not afraid of the cavalry charge at all. There was really no support for the infantry battalion, and he could only rely on himself to deal with the charge of the cavalry.

However, an infantry battalion of the Ming army itself has the ability to resist cavalry charges.

In the phalanx of 6000 soldiers, after hard work on weekdays, the consciousness of all soldiers has formed an instinct, and they cooperate quite tacitly. Not only are there many changes, but they also move quite quickly.

Facing the impact of the cavalry at this moment, the 6000 people changed from being square to a circular defensive formation in an instant. The pikemen were straight, and the pikemen were slanted vertically. , the sword and shield hands are on the side to cover, resisting the rain of arrows, while the archers are in the middle, bending their bows and setting arrows frantically, throwing arrows.

The cavalry who rushed into the formation for a while fell in pieces under the dense arrow rain. The [-] cavalry led by Battelle had no way to fight this hedgehog-like circle.

Directly rushing up would not be able to break through the dense forest of guns at all, and shooting from the outside to face the opponent's rain of arrows would not take advantage of the slightest advantage.

Ten thousand times in the distance, seeing that the two sides had reached a stalemate, but the Han clearly had the absolute upper hand, after some hesitation, they finally gritted their teeth and charged towards the unmoving Tumed cavalry.

No way, the Mongols already had the upper hand. No matter whether it was the cavalry attacking the Han infantry or the cavalry attacking the Han command, they did not achieve any results. Instead, they suffered heavy losses. On the frontal battlefield, the Han chariots cooperated with the cavalry to go on a rampage. , the Mongolian cavalry who fought with it, it is only a matter of time before they retreat.

Once the frontal battlefield collapses and the Han cavalry chariots come to support them, the Mongolian cavalry on the two wings will also collapse instantly, but the Han people still have [-] cavalry left untouched, and they can only defeat these [-] cavalry before they can support Tuxie Figure Department.

Ten thousand to five thousand, Huihui is still very confident.

Huang Degong had been guarding against these backs for a long time. Seeing that they finally moved, they were still heading for the Tumed cavalry, so he immediately ordered the Tumed cavalry to fight to contain the ten thousand backs. After they defeated the Tuxietu tribe , and then pack these back.

The five thousand Tumed cavalry were like a mess, but Huang Degong still temporarily appointed a commander. Since the overall combat power was greatly reduced, the ability to ride, shoot and fight was born.

Immediately after receiving the order, he was ready to launch a guerrilla shoot, intending to lure away the [-] cavalry first.

Seeing that these cavalry did not dare to fight back, they turned around and ran away. Instead of chasing after them, they planned to support Tuxietu's troops, but just as they turned their horses around, they found that the opponent circled around and rushed towards them again, so they had to kill them again. But just after killing him, the opponent ran away again, screaming in anger.

After going back and forth twice, they finally couldn't help chasing and killing them. Seeing that the opponent was chasing up, all the Tumet cavalrymen had grim smiles on their faces.

Soon the Tumed cavalry and the [-] back cavalry disappeared on the battlefield after chasing and fleeing.

Huang Degong didn't pay attention to them any more, but turned his attention to the frontal battlefield. He knew that these responses should be due to the fact that he rarely fought against the Mongolian cavalry. Although the number of them was twice as large as that of the Tumed cavalry, this time he must suffer a big loss. of.

The left and right wings had fallen into a stalemate, and the cavalry of the Tuxietu tribe had given up their strong attack, and obviously planned to wait for the frontal battlefield to decide the winner.

Although on the frontal battlefield, more than 5000 people were invested by Tuxietu, [-] of whom were really young and strong warriors, but facing [-] chariots and [-] armored cavalry of the Ming army, they only persisted. After a quarter of an hour, they suffered heavy losses and fled in all directions, breaking away from the entanglement and daring not to fight again.

The cavalry on the left and right flanks also had to leave the battlefield and fled towards Guihua City. The combined battle between the two sides did not exceed half an hour, and it ended with the defeat of the Tushetu cavalry.

The battlefield is almost full of Mongol corpses and fallen horses. Occasionally, one or two damaged carriages will appear, lying in a pool of blood.

As for the total number of Ming troops killed in battle did not exceed [-], counting the hundreds of people injured by the arrows, the casualties did not exceed [-]. There are almost six or seven thousand people, half of which are women and minors.

There is no way, first of all, there is a big difference in equipment between the two sides, and secondly, the Tuxietu Department has no decent command system at all, and it is fighting purely by instinct without the slightest tactical cooperation at all. The nemesis of the cavalry, if it wasn't for the superb riding skills, relying on speed and agility, it would definitely be a one-sided massacre.

The opponent fled, but Huang Degong did not order to pursue immediately. He knew that there was no rush to fight the Mongols, so he was going to clean up the battlefield and kill them tomorrow.

No matter whether the opponent chooses to hide in Guihua City to resist to the death or escape, it will not change the fate of destruction.

As for the cavalry of Tumed's troops, there is only one man and three horses, and there is no need to worry if they don't come back for ten and a half months.
