Chapter 383 Anti-kill?
The scouts reported that the Tatars stopped two thousand meters away to rest.
The distance of two thousand meters is far away for infantry, but it is closer for cavalry. It only takes three or four minutes to run two thousand meters.
After careful consideration, Zhang Xinquan made a decision and sent people out of the city to clean the battlefield within 700 meters of the city. The battle mainly broke out within this distance.
If the Tatars launch a new attack because they go out of the city to clean the battlefield, the People's Army has enough time to run back to the pass before the Tatars catch up, and the musketeers and artillery soldiers should not go out to clean the battlefield. Once the Tatars attack, they can use muskets and artillery to cover their comrades back to the pass.
Soon, the soldiers of the 83rd Division, ordinary regiments of the border troops walked out of the city one after another to clean the battlefield.
In the battle that broke out before, only a few people from the border army were on the city wall. Now more border soldiers saw the bloody battlefield outside the city wall, and some People's Army soldiers who learned about the battle had explained to other border soldiers that had just broken out.
"A black mass of Tatar cavalry came from the north, with tens of thousands of horses galloping, and the earth was shaking."
"hiss!"
"But the war horses of the Tatar cavalry did not have wings, so they could not fly up to the city walls. We attacked with muskets and cannons, killing thousands of Tatars injured."
"hiss!"
Listening to the explanations of the People's Army soldiers, the border soldiers kept marveling, marveling at the number of Tatars that appeared, marveling at the ability of the People's Army to repel the Tatars with a weak number of casualties, and marveling at the ability of the People's Army to kill so many Tatars. Those who have been staying at the border encountered many battles with the Tatars, but have never achieved such a great victory.
The soldiers of the first-row warriors have already begun to clear the tears. Their target is the Tatars who are falling on the battlefield, holding a shield in front of them with one hand, and the sword or battle axe they were originally holding in the other hand has been replaced with a spear. When they saw a Tatar, they did not want to capture the Tatars, and stabbed them directly at the key parts of the Tatars with a spear and "finished the knife".
The Tatars who fell on the battlefield were not intact. The seriously injured were dead. The ones who were slightly injured were wailing. The lesser injured Tatars secretly held their weapons and prepared to attack the approaching People's Army soldiers.
These Tatars have a very great threat. Even if they capture the Tatars, it is difficult to obtain much information. The Tatars are very likely to sell their tribe position. Moreover, the People's Army soldiers are easily injured in the process of capturing the Tatars, and it is difficult for the captured Tatars to be used as coolies.
Killing them is the best choice.
The spear was stabbed out and retracted, and blood spurted out from the Tatars' body. The young Tatar, who had fallen in a pool of blood, suddenly opened his eyes wide open. He did not expect that he would die so easily.
At the moment of death, he regretted very much, regretted participating in this battle, regretting that he died so easily, and that his women, cattle and sheep must become someone else's.
Die with your eyes open!
Seeing that the People's Army soldiers treated the Tatars like this, some Tatars pretending to be dead before the People's Army approached, they pulled their bows and shot arrows at the People's Army soldiers. The First-Ling soldiers who were walking in the front were always cautious and it was difficult to be hurt by hidden arrows.
The People's Army sent scouts to monitor the Tatars, and the Tatar Pioneer Army also sent spies to monitor the Bohai Station.
A Tatar spy came back and reported to Xiang Su, saying that the enemy from the Bohai Institute was leaving the prison and cleaning the battlefield, and thousands of people came out.
A small tribe leader immediately said: "This is a good opportunity. We rushed over and killed all the enemies who were cleaning the battlefield, and could even rush directly into the pass."
As soon as the words were finished, several tribal leaders expressed their support for the battle now.
He hesitated for a moment and agreed, but he couldn't rush over now and wait until the enemy is far away from the city wall before setting off. Otherwise, the enemy is not far from the city wall. As soon as they attack, the enemy will quickly retreat into the pass. Then they will return without success this time, and there will be a high possibility that many warriors will be killed and injured.
As time passed, the first-row soldiers at the forefront were soon far away from the city wall for more than 500 meters away. Nearby, some People's Army cavalry were holding telescopes and looking into the distance. In the distance, some People's Army cavalry were also watching.
It felt that the time was almost the same, so I quickly issued a departure order, and more than 50,000 Tatar cavalry were divided into several storm-mountain to rush south again.
Just when the Tatar cavalry was moving, the People's Army scouts, who had been observing the Tatar cavalry in the distance, took out two flags and waved them behind them, conveying the news of the enemy's attack.
The People's Army scouts passed the news of the coming of the Tatars through telescopes and waving flags.
"The Tatars are coming, retreat quickly!"
The scout closest to the First Ding Warrior shouted loudly. When the sound of the sound, the nearby First Ding warriors immediately threw down their shields and spears and ran towards the city wall. While running, they shouted loudly: "The enemy is here, run!"
Amid the shouts, the People's Army soldiers and border troops outside the city knew about the Tatars' attack, and turned around and ran towards the city gate area. All the soldiers who came first didn't even want their own weapons, just to run faster.
Other troops do not need to throw down their weapons. Compared to the first-row warriors, they are closer to the city wall and lighter equipment on them, so they have plenty of time to run back to the pass.
There is no need to worry that the First-Down soldiers who left weapons would have no weapons in the pass. The Bohai Station had a large number of Ming troops garrisoned before, and now there is only one battalion of 3,000 people left. The other Ming troops were sent home by the People's Army, but the weapons used by these border troops were all in the Bohai Station. Each First-Down soldiers had at least two sets of backup weapons.
There are now more than a thousand shields placed on the city wall. Most of the soldiers in the two ordinary regiments of the 83rd Division who did not go out to clean the battlefield climbed onto the city wall. Once the Tatar cavalry rushed to the front and shot arrows again, the soldiers of the ordinary regiments would raise their shields to resist the arrows for musketeers and artillerymen.
Soon, the Tatar cavalry were only 1,500 meters away from the city wall, and the heavy Folang machine cannon fired.
One thousand meters, medium howitzers fired.
Seven hundred meters, muskets were fired, and light tiger-headed cannon fired.
Hundreds and thousands of Tatars fell down on the battlefield again. Seeing that the People's Army soldiers were about to enter the pass, the Tatar cavalry closest to the city wall was still nearly two hundred meters away. Soon, Hai and the tribal leaders were full of anger and had nowhere to release them.
After rushing, continuing to rush, rushing to a few dozen meters away from the city wall, the Tatar vanguard army once again shot more than 100,000 arrows at the city wall.
Shields were raised on the city wall, blocking the endless rain of arrows. However, ordinary group soldiers were not as good as soldiers who used shields, which increased the number of casualties in the People's Army this time a little higher than the last time.
The main reason is that the number of people who were slightly injured increased, and the number of people who were seriously injured and directly died decreased. With one experience, musketeers and artillery soldiers have slightly increased their experience of avoiding arrows under the shield, especially in the gap between the shield and the shield. The vital parts must not be exposed/exposed here. More than 100,000 arrows, and there will always be arrows that will pass through the gap to damage the People's Army soldiers behind the shield.
