Chapter 166 Head-to-head!

There was a burst of cheers in the square formation, and the depression of being chased and beaten disappeared in an instant.

Many soldiers began to discover that the Houjin Tatars were nothing more than that. They would still die in front of their own guns.

It's a pity that we are in a phalanx, so we can't rush out and cut off the heads of these Tatars, and those dead horses, they are all flesh.

The depression in Li Yuanqing's chest suddenly dissipated a lot.

Although free shooting is not as intense as the pleasure of large-scale "segment attack", it at least allows these dog Tatars to understand that their own side is not without the power to fight back.

In this state, Houjin's main force seemed to have no intention of attacking, but the sentries were still densely packed around the phalanx. Li Yuanqing did not adjust the formation, and continued to maintain a bunker-style hidden firepower, ordering the phalanx to continue moving forward.

After walking a few hundred steps, Hou Jin Sentry wanted to test again, but in an instant, they were greeted by another round of cannon fire.

Inexplicably, more than a dozen corpses were left behind. These post-golden sentry detectives no longer dared to move forward. They stayed 150 steps away and closely followed the phalanx formation.

The two sides maintained a strange confrontation like this. The Changsheng Battalion's formation did not break up. Later, the Jin Army did not dare to act rashly. The Changsheng Battalion moved forward, and they followed around.

Although they are absolutely mortal enemies, at this moment, they complement each other so well, as if these Houjin sentinels are the bodyguards of the Changsheng Battalion's phalanx...

More than two hours have passed, and the Changsheng Camp phalanx has walked more than a mile.

At this time, Zhang Pan could already clearly see what was going on here and couldn't help but shed tears.

During this period of time, the Hou Jin army relaxed its defense against them, and the two groups separated by Zhang Pan finally came together.

Looking at the bright red flag with the word "Li" flying in the phalanx, how could Zhang Pan still hesitate? He quickly ordered his soldiers to quickly move closer to the phalanx.

Li Yuanqing could clearly see Zhang Pan's movements at this time, and his brows could not help but frown.

If we form a camp to defend, even if we are passive, we can temporarily ensure safety. But if we run in such a hurry, doesn't it give these Houjin cavalry a chance?

Li Yuanqing quickly ordered his soldiers to flag Zhang Pan's side and signal them to form a formation.

Zhang Pan also reacted and quickly shouted to his soldiers to form a formation.

Unfortunately, the soldiers under Zhang Pan were far from the rigorously trained soldiers of the Changsheng Battalion. They were in a mess and looked like nothing at all.

Hou Jin's cavalry also discovered this weakness. Not long after, the ground suddenly shook violently. A cavalry of about four to five hundred people, braving the drizzle, rushed towards Zhang Pan's camp like crazy.

Zhang Pan was shocked and quickly directed his men to meet the enemy.

Unfortunately, their formation was too scattered, and they had no time to form effective resistance when faced with such a close attack by the Hou Jin Cavalry.

In a matter of moments, they were scattered, and there were many dead and wounded.

Zhang Pan shouted anxiously, but in such a chaotic situation, he couldn't do anything at all. He had to quickly move towards the phalanx of Changsheng Camp under the cover of his own soldiers.

On the side of the phalanx, Li Yuanqing shook his head feebly.

After putting in so much effort, in the end, this is the scene.

But it was already like this, and Li Yuanqing could not ignore death. "Send my military order, and the whole army will speed up and move forward, maintain the formation, and rescue Zhang Panbu."

"Yes." The order was quickly passed to the front line.

The Changsheng Battalion phalanx quickly quickened its pace and headed towards Zhang Pan's department.

Soon, Zhang Pan's vanguard soldiers rushed to the front of the Changsheng Battalion's phalanx, crying and shouting about to rush into the phalanx.

Li Yuanqing's face was ashen.

At this time, how could he still have the kindness of a woman? He directly issued a military order, asking the frontline soldiers to shout in front of the formation, asking Zhang Pan's troops to retreat to both sides of the phalanx. Anyone who dared to rush into the formation would be killed without mercy.

.

With such chaos, Zhang Pan's soldiers were frightened out of their wits. Many of them turned into headless flies and wanted to rush into the square formation to find Li Yuanqing's protection.

But they don't know that once they break up the Changsheng Camp's phalanx, no one in the two camps can survive!

"Brothers, don't rush into the formation, retreat to both sides. Otherwise, you will be killed without mercy." The soldiers in the front row shouted desperately.

But these headless flies at the front couldn't care less about so many people, so they rushed towards the square formation with all their strength.

Li Yuanqing did not hesitate at all and quickly issued the order to kill.

The front row officer responded quickly, "Raise your gun and stab~~~."

In a moment, a dozen soldiers from Zhang Pan's department who were at the forefront fell under the gunfire of Changsheng Battalion soldiers. The bright red blood dyed the ground under their feet. This made the soldiers behind them react and hurriedly started to move toward them.

He fled along the two wings of the phalanx.

Seeing that the red crowd finally split into two and rushed to both sides, Li Yuanqing breathed a sigh of relief.

But at this time, the Houjin cavalry behind them had already charged towards them with a ferocious smile.

Perhaps they were red-eyed, or perhaps they sensed the unbearable power of the Ming army. The speed of their horses reached the front of the Changsheng Battalion phalanx, and they could no longer hold back.

"First row, light the match."

"Ready to shoot."

At this time, Shunzi and Yang Xiaochuan were left with a hundred bird gun soldiers, plus more than fifty bird gun soldiers from various ministries around them, who had already made preparations.

"Proofreading and aiming."

"shooting."

"Bang bang bang!" There was a crisp chirping of bird cannons, and in an instant, more than 50 bird cannons fired in unison, white smoke flying, and at least a dozen Houjin cavalry rushing in front were shot, either human or horse, violently.

Fell to the ground.

But in this state, even if they were not dead at the time, the trampling of the cavalry from behind would definitely mean that they would not survive.

This is also the most inevitable point for cavalry. There is no retreat until there is advance.

"Second row, shoot."

There was another chirp of bird cannons, this time closer, and almost twenty cavalrymen fell under their horses.

But after the Jin cavalry had already rushed to the front of the formation, the third row of cannon soldiers no longer had enough time to shoot. Under the shouts of their respective officers, more than a hundred spearmen in the front row raised their spears and built the Great Wall of flesh and blood.

"Kill the Tartars."

"Go to hell, you bastard Tatars!"

"Dog Tartar, I will make you your own mother!"

Like two torrents of different colors, the two men and horses collided violently in an instant.

But although the soldiers of the Changsheng Battalion were brave, they were still made of flesh and blood. How could they be the opponents of these Houjin cavalrymen and horses?

In a moment, several gaps were opened in the red defense line, but at the same time, at least dozens of horses were stabbed by spears and fell screaming in front of the formation.

With such a huge inertial impact, the riders on their backs are no better than horses.

Just these few minutes gave the musketeers behind them valuable time.

"shooting!"

"shooting!"

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

There were bursts of chirping of bird cannons and bursts of bursts of fire. Even if they were not compact enough, they were several times faster than the bows, arrows and sabers of Hou Jin's cavalry. In an instant, at least a hundred war horses fell in front of the two armies.

The Houjin Cavalry had at least sixty or seventy casualties.

How could the cavalry behind dare to charge forward? They turned their horses around and ran back.

In a moment, the black clouds on the ground, like dark clouds overhead, dissipated in an instant, leaving only various corpses in front of the formation in a mess on the ground.

Li Yuanqing's clenched fists were slightly loosened, but he didn't have time to take a breath. He quickly rushed to the front of the formation and shouted: "Quick, hurry up and help the wounded."
