Back to the end of Ming Dynasty to be a warlord

Chapter 215 The Whole Army Charges
The purpose of Yang Chao's battle this time is not to kill many people at all, but to let his subordinates grow up. As long as he goes through this bloody battle, his army will also grow up.

And as long as he defends against the attack of the captive soldiers, Yang Chao feels that the captive soldiers should retreat, and his rescue mission is over.

You can return to Huai'an with the fruits of success, and then you can be promoted to a small level, and then recruit more soldiers to expand your strength.

However, Wang Pu's attack this time disrupted Yang Chao's plan. Although Wang Pu could definitely kill many enemies, he also put his own team in danger. More than half of the casualties are not worth the loss. These soldiers are not for consumption. These soldiers are all seeds, and they will be the core of tens of thousands of troops in the future.

Thinking of this, and seeing Wang Pu getting deeper and deeper, even seeming to be hidden in the formation of captive soldiers, Yang Chao has the heart to kill, so he doesn't have the heart to scold Wang Pu.

Yang Chao also climbed up the ladder and stood on the roof to observe.

Seeing that Wang Pu stabilized the formation of the corps, like ten long snakes, they swam forward in the formation of captive soldiers.

Between each long snake, all the captive soldiers were strangled, only the two outermost teams had casualties, the one on the left was missing two people, and the one on the right was missing one person.

Under the attack, the captive soldiers dodged one after another and scattered towards both sides.

But there are also some captive soldiers who are slowly gathering, trying to attack Wang Pu's general team in an organized manner.

Especially in the front of Wang Pu's army, there is still a uniform armored soldier, but most of them have no horses, and they fight back with bows and arrows, as if they are protecting their leader.

Yang Chao saw the enemy army, the horses were dead all over the place, and judging from the stumps left at the scene, the captive soldiers were unlucky to be bombarded, not to mention the heavy casualties, even the enemy generals may have been injured up.

The general was injured and the horse was killed or injured, so their guards chose to guard the general with infantry.

Yang Chao immediately thought that this was probably Wang Pu's goal: to kill the enemy generals!
At this time, the city wall was already full of people, most of these people were soldiers from the Haizhou Thousand Households Office, and there were also many city folk organized by the government.

Since the captive soldiers appeared outside Haizhou City, these people have been extremely nervous. If it weren't for the fact that Haizhou City had their own home, they might have escaped long ago, and the farther they escaped, the better.

Neither the military households in Haizhou nor the civilians in the city had the courage to fight the enemy, and they were of humble origins, and they did not have the consciousness to dedicate themselves to the Ming Dynasty at all.

Although Haizhou is their home, they have no escape and can only bite the bullet and kick the city, but few really dare to provoke the captive soldiers. No one dares to shoot a single shot.

They just begged the captive soldiers to grab enough and leave quickly. Even when the captive soldiers appeared, they just hid behind the city wall and lowered their heads to prevent the captive soldiers from seeing them, because various legends included that the captive soldiers were unparalleled in riding and shooting. Rumor has it that anyone who is seen will be shot.

Therefore, even though Yang Chao had been fighting with the captive soldiers for a long time, there was still no one on the city showing their heads, and the occasional bold ones just glanced through the battlements from time to time.

But Wang Pu's attack immediately stunned those peeking people. They even forgot to shrink back for a while, and stupidly leaned out of the battlements to watch.

They really couldn't imagine that Wang Pu dared to attack the captive soldiers, and what made them even more unbelievable was that Wang Pu actually went at the leader of the captive soldiers.

From Yang Chao's point of view, Wang Pu's ambition is exciting, and Yang Chao also wants to kill a general of the captive soldiers, but if he takes the risk of the entire army being injured, Yang Chao is absolutely unwilling to stand in the command position of the entire army , Yang Chao's first consideration is to let the army grow up with the least cost. Before it grows up, it is not a wise choice to confront the captive soldiers with rich experience in war.

But in Wang Pu's eyes, he only had military merits, and he only had secret rivalries with other officers. To put it bluntly, he had some idea of ​​showing off in his risky attack this time, which made Yang Chao very dissatisfied.

But if you are not satisfied, you can't let it go. If you let this captive army block Wang Pu's offensive, and the captive soldiers on all sides slowly restore order and surround them, Wang Pu's entire army will only be annihilated.

Yang Chao had been seeking stability because he didn't want to accept too many casualties, and Wang Pu annihilated the entire army, which was simply traumatic, which Yang Chao could not accept at all.

Yang Chao took a deep breath and shouted loudly: "The bird guns and archers stay behind, and the others, change to long guns, set up a wall formation, all of them, charge!!!"

With that said, Yang Chao climbed down the ladder, and jumped off halfway through.

Taking the long spear sent by Zhao Kang, and leading his own soldiers, he was the first to climb over the low wall.

All the infantry, except for the musketeers and archers, including the sword and shield soldiers, immediately changed their spears, and then climbed over the low wall one by one, walked out of the street, and formed an array outside the warehouse.

Yang Chao's soldiers lined up outside the warehouse for a while, then trotted forward at a low speed.

You can't run too fast, because you have to maintain the formation, and if the formation is chaotic, you will suffer in this chaotic battle.

In order to save Wang Pu, more people should not be thrown into crisis.

Yang Chao's personal army was in front, and many men, Song Kun and other elite soldiers behind him also attacked in turn, and after a slight adjustment, they immediately ordered to charge.

Yang Chao’s direction is almost the same as Wang Pu’s. The purpose is very clear, that is to rush up, rescue Wang Pu, and bring these 100 people back safely. Wang Pu cannot let [-] people who have experienced bloody battles The extremely rare veteran seed was buried.

The good thing is that the captive soldiers were originally disrupted by the cannons, and according to Yang Chao's observation, after the shelling here in the south, the losses of the captive soldiers seem to be much greater. Seeing the effect of the lead bullets fired in a certain period of time, I immediately thought in my heart that the reason why Wang Pu charged was probably related to the greater loss of the captive soldiers in the south and the more chaotic formation.

It was precisely because of the chaotic formation that Wang Pu was able to directly penetrate the formation of the captive soldiers at this time, and went straight to the back of the enemy's formation, and fought against the last group of resolutely protecting captive soldiers.

In front of Wang Pu, the group of well-organized and well-armored soldiers was extremely powerful. There were about [-] people in them. At this time, they all abandoned their horses or lost their horses. They protected the leader on foot and tried to retreat.

This group of captive soldiers not only wore iron armor, but also guarded their generals to fight to the death. Obviously, they were also a kind of army, and they were probably the famous white-armored elite among the captive soldiers: Bayara guards.

Wang Pu didn't take this into consideration at all at this time. After he came all the way, only this army stood in front of them. Several people were killed on horses, and some were injured on the ground. These people protected the wounded. All dismounted and fought to the death, and no one escaped.

This made Wang Pu angry, and if he didn't run away, even if he didn't run away in front of him, he would beat you to escape, or beat you to death.

As a result, not only did Wang Pu not kill the opponent in the confrontation, but Wang Pu lost several people. Some were directly shot through the iron armor by heavy arrows at close range, and some were stabbed to death by the opponent's long spear, especially one of the captive soldiers holding a Zhangxu long spear was very brave. , It is difficult to have an enemy in all directions.

Wang Pu has never seen this kind of big gun. It is a weapon from Liaodong, called a tiger gun. It is used to fight tigers and black bears. It is more than ten feet long and the barrel of the gun is thick and thin. If you kill it with one shot, even the tiger will be killed. But this gun is extremely heavy, not a real warrior, who can't wield such a big gun.

Wang Pu lost his temper and insisted on competing with this captive soldier. His general team had already penetrated the formation of the captive soldier. Fortunately, he surrounded the small group of captive soldiers with less than 30 people and began to besiege them. One ran away.

At this time, [-] steps away from Wang Pu, Yang Chao led thirty soldiers in a row to charge forward, attacking frantically.

In front were the chaotic captive cavalry. The captive soldiers were crowded within [-] steps between the warehouse and the barracks. The order had not been restored under the attack of the cannon, so they could only fight on their own, and were pierced by Wang Pu again. , There was no time to restore the formation, and Yang Chao charged again.

Yang Chao saw a captive soldier appearing in front of him on the left, trying to attack with his bow and arrow. A soldier from the guard immediately ran out, put his long spear flat on the right side, and walked forward calmly with tight steps. Without waiting for the captive soldier to shoot an arrow, he stabbed him off his horse with one shot.

At this time, the entire formation had passed the infantry, and the infantry then shot the captive soldier who had fallen to the ground, then stepped over his body, followed quickly, and continued to fill in the formation.

Everyone is like this, with long spears in their hands, their hands are very steady, and the daily training is not wasted. Lao Jin trains the spearmen to hold their guns every day, and the spears in their hands seem to be connected with their own arms.

Stepping forward, even though they were trotting, the formation was not too chaotic, they formed a line, like a moving wall, and all the captive soldiers blocking in front of them were all crushed.

Among the scattered captive soldiers for a while, the wall advanced another twenty steps. The captive soldiers either retreated or fled to the sides. Yang Chao did not pursue and charged forward to meet Wang Pu.

The captive soldiers who fled to the two sides did not escape the front of the soldiers, because they immediately encountered many men and Song Kun who came forward from both sides, and they could only be exhausted again, and had no chance to resist as a whole team.

At some point, the city wall was already full of people, who boldly poked their heads out, and were completely dumbfounded.

Wang Pu's assault just surprised them, but Yang Chao's entire army assault immediately stunned them.

The people in the warehouse area also gathered at the south entrance to watch at this time, and some climbed up to the roof to look at it, and they were also stunned.

Everyone couldn't believe it, couldn't believe what their eyes saw, because what they saw was——

The infantry group is launching a full-scale charge against the cavalry group!
