Chapter 1017 Ten Thousand Horses Charge

The Ming army musketeers pressed forward and fired their guns in a row. At the same time, the artillery on the Ming army's artillery formation roared wildly.

Nearly a hundred bronze cannons retreated in turn, concentrating on bombarding a section of wooden fence on the front, tearing apart the defense line of the Zhou army.

Every time the artillery was fired, the shells were wrapped in countless wood chips and swept across the Zhou army behind. Each artillery, the Zhou army fell down in one piece, making the Zhou army's musket line even more chaotic.

Between the two armies, the Ming army scattered soldiers lying on the ground, manipulating the tiger cannon. With a few roars, several gaps were suddenly made on the Zhou army's front.

After the Ming army equipped a large number of muskets and eliminated cold weapons, Zhao Ming found that the combat power of the Ming army flag team had not been greatly improved. Instead, it was because of the incoming battle and insufficient long-distance firepower.

For this reason, Zhao Ming thought of some solutions, not only equipped his soldiers with grenades, rockets, and each elite flag team, but also equipped the Tiger Cannon that he had not used much before as fire support.

Under the attack of the Ming army, the Zhou army's front was shaken and multiple gaps appeared.

Party leader Su immediately shouted, "At the killer team!"

The horn sounded, and the Ming soldiers holding rattan cards and Miao swords immediately rushed out of the gap between the musket team and rushed towards the Zhou army's front.

The Ming army had a sharp offensive, and the Zhou army outside Tongguan was instantly shaken when they first arrived at the defense line. At this time, on the flank of the battlefield, the Zhou cavalry, all over the mountains, rushed down and rushed directly to the flank of the Ming army, intending to divide the Ming army and cut off the Ming army's vanguard and the main formation.

Ten thousand full of soldiers and cavalry, with the camp as waves, divided into three waves in total, and launched a intensive charge against the Ming army.

The sound of hooves rumbled, and the Zhou cavalry rushed down from a high place, and the horse's hooves splashed pieces of soil. The cavalry rolled down like mudslides, directly crashed into the Ming army with an unstoppable momentum of thousands of troops.

In the Ming army formation, under the banner of Dazhang, the army who were watching the battlefield with a thousand-mile mirror, discovered the changes in the battlefield one after another.

"Your Highness, the enemy cavalry in the southwest rushed down!"

"The enemy cavalry is divided into three waves. If it is not stopped, the front army will suffer severe damage!"

The battlefield is vast, and it is difficult to observe all directions at the same time with Zhao Ming alone.

Therefore, in the Ming army, there were twenty soldiers joining the army, holding a thousand-mile mirror, observing the battlefield around, and reminding Zhao Ming of the movements on the battlefield at any time.

Zhao Ming, when he heard the yu, picked up the thousand-mile mirror and looked ten miles away, the Zhou cavalry rushed down and immediately shouted: "Send the order to change the formation of the front-line army, and then order the cavalry to attack to block the enemy!"

When the former army party guard saw the Zhou cavalry rushing down from the flank, he was worried, a horn sounded from behind him. He turned to look and saw thousands of Ming cavalry rushing out under the guidance of a red dragon flag, facing the Zhou cavalry rushing down from the field.

At the same time, the central army called a roster cannon that changed its formation, with three flank battalions, nearly 10,000 Ming troops, immediately in the drum and horn, began to transform into a square formation.

The Ming army field artillery on the flank front also turned the guns and aimed at the rushing enemy cavalry.

This made the Party leader Su immediately move down, wave his sword and point angrily, "Press up and defeat the enemy!"

After shooting, the Ming army musketeers immediately pushed the bayonet and rushed into the gap toward the Zhou army on the front line.

At this time, I saw a Ming cavalry coming up and leading the cavalry to charge, Mandahai roaring like hysterical, "Juchen warriors, defeat the barbarians for me!"

The Qing Dynasty was destroyed, and these homeless Manchu cavalrymen who were living under others were full of hatred and unwillingness to send out angry calls, attempting to destroy the oncoming Ming cavalry and then attack the Ming infantry.

The Manchurian cavalry held a cavalry rifle and lowered their spearheads. With the help of the inertia of the hillside, they instantly raised their full speed.

"Soldiers rushed forward!" Wang Chaoxian, the general of the Ming Dynasty, looked at the Manchu cavalry with great momentum and roared loudly.

After speaking, he raised his horse's spear and activated his war horse. The three thousand chest-plated cavalry behind him followed him in a row.

The cavalry of the two armies approached quickly. Facing the overwhelming attack of the Zhou cavalry, the artillery in the Ming army's infantry formation turned the guns and bombarded the enemy cavalry.

At the same time, on the hillside, the Zhou army's artillery array also began to launch artillery bombardment.

Amid the sound of "rumbling" cannons, one after another, one after another, a group of cavalry on both sides fell into the impact formation group of cavalry on both sides, raised a bunch of earth and rocks, rushed to the front of the cavalry, howling and neighing!

For a moment, in the formation group of both sides, the war horses soared into the air, threw away the knights, and smashed heavily on the ground. The cavalry rolled and the war horses screamed!

"Kill!" The cavalry of the two armies roared at the same time.

In the shelling, the cavalry quickly pulled the distance closer and looked straight towards the opponent without fear.

The Qing cavalry opened their bows and arrows, while the Ming cavalry raised their muskets.

Thousands of hooves trampled on the earth and splashed dust. The Manchu cavalry was hatred, and the Ming cavalry howled and launched a charge with a momentum of contempt for all enemies.

The upcoming collision of two torrents made the respective commanders on the battlefield look sideways and hold their breath.

"Bang bang bang"

"Swoosh swish swish"

A dense sound of gunfire and bowstrings sounded one after another. The Manchu cavalry fell like beans under musket shooting, and the Ming cavalry fell down in the rain of arrows all over the sky.

The cavalry on both sides had no time to check the results of the battle, and the cavalry of the two armies collided violently.

The cavalry pierced, the horse spear was rushing straight, the sword was slashed, the two steel torrents collided violently, blood flowers bloomed, screams were everywhere, the war horses were knocked over, and the cavalry was stabbed and fell off the horse, and the huge casualties were almost mad.

The Manchu cavalry rushed down with high height, and the Ming cavalry was well-armed. The generals on both sides led their troops out of the formation. Wherever they passed, they all saw the dead bodies and the woeful war horses.

The Dynasty first led the Ming cavalry to kill through the first wave of Zhou cavalry and rushed into the second wave without hesitation.

Mandahai led the first wave of Manchurian cavalry and broke through the Ming cavalry to block it. After just looking back, he rushed directly to the Ming army's infantry formation.

At Tongguan, Wu Sangui was not surprised and exclaimed, "Okay!"

However, when the first wave of Manchu cavalry broke through the block and rushed towards the Ming army with a loud sound of hooves, the Ming army in front had turned into a hollow formation group of thousands of people, firmly blocking the front flanks.

On the mountain, under the flying military flag, Jiang Xiang stared at the battlefield intently. The white smoke rising in the air and the smoke from muskets made his vision blurred.

At this time, the Jin army on the mountain could see the cavalry of Mandahai, who rushed directly to the hollow formation group of the Ming army, about to break through the Ming army's blockade and crash into the rear of the Ming army's front formation.

"Prince, Mandahai has taken action, let's fight!" Jiang Youguang waved his hand and shouted excitedly at the magnificent war.

Jiang Xiang looked at the red ocean of the Ming army at the foot of the mountain, and did not hesitate, and finally raised his arms and shouted: "Start the cannon! The infantry attacked, defeated the flanks of the Ming army, and drove Zhao Zamao down the Yellow River!"
