Chapter 814 Breaking the Liaodong Iron Cavalry

"Liaodong iron cavalry really deserve their reputation!" Zhang Shunduan sat on the high platform of the Chinese army, watching the cavalry of officers and soldiers outside the formation lined up in horizontal formation.One back, one after another, each one is as heavy as one.

If you win, the whole team will chase slowly; if you lose, you will gather together and not disperse.

"Isn't this a bit of a 'wall charge' style?" Zhang Shun couldn't help but sighed when he saw this.

Although Zhang Shun read a lot of online novels in his previous life, he didn't quite understand what happened to the invincible "wall charge".However, facing an opponent who is advancing like a wall, he somewhat understands the meaning of "wall style".

In fact, Zhang Shun didn't know this. Everyone has two arms and two legs, and there is not much difference between weapons and mounts. How could it be possible that the cavalry tactics that are effective and cure all diseases have not been adopted by the contemporaries? other human discoveries?

In fact, whether it is a "wall charge" or modern cavalry, it is nothing more than a dense charge formation.

Although there are slight differences in the middle, the overall difference is not big.

The traditional nomadic cavalry tactic is to set up a sharp formation, or a cone formation, in order to increase the impact of the cavalry.

However, with the development of firearms, the previous traditional heavy armored spear shock tactics encountered new challenges.

Violent firearms can easily tear the protection of heavy armor, resulting in a similar casualty rate between lance riders who are more difficult to train and riders who use waist knives and sabers.Since then, the cost performance of Lancers has become worse and worse, and saber cavalry has risen accordingly.

As a result, cavalry tactics in the Ming Dynasty changed. More and more cavalry began to be divided into squads with sentries as units, and then lined up in dense horizontal formations to charge, which was almost the same as the so-called "wall charge" in later generations.

Of course, the most fearful thing about a dense formation is the dense firepower.

When the officers, soldiers and cavalry were divided into small groups and charged repeatedly, the musketeers and archers in the rebel army were already ready.

In order to increase the lethality of firearms, the rebels deliberately set off firecrackers, bows and arrows to lure officers and soldiers into the formation.

At the [-]th step, Bai Guangen and He Renlong gave an order, and immediately fired guns, bows and arrows.

The team that charged in front of the battle was immediately beaten to pieces, with half the casualties.

Then, before the Rebels could reload again, the second wave of cavalry charged again.

"Quick, quick, hold the spearmen against me, and retreat the musketeers and archers!" The Shizhang and Bannerzhang in front of the rebel formation shouted loudly.The spearmen who were going to retreat to the rear were also called up temporarily.

"All the spearmen sit down for Lao Tzu, put their feet on the butt of the gun, and point to the front of the formation, ready to resist the charge of the cavalry! The rest of the swordsmen are ready and follow orders!"

The spearmen under He Renlong and Bai Guangen suddenly panicked. Some lay on the ground and refused to get up, while others squatted there stupidly.Some spearmen collided with the retreating musketeers and archers.

When Wuchang and Shichang saw each other, they didn't care about the danger, stepped forward and kicked the disobedient two severely, and yelled: "If you want to die, don't pick up the ground, sit on the ground for me, and put the spear on the sidelines!"

Although faced with the charge of the cavalry, the rebel spearmen, musketeers and archers panicked and caused a lot of trouble, but with the whipping of the grassroots officers, they barely completed the tactical task.

Before the soldiers could react, the cavalry of the officers and soldiers rushed towards them, just in time to encounter obstacles such as repelling horses and barbed wire that the rebels had arranged in front of the formation.

The rider steered the horse cautiously, avoiding the barbed wire on the ground, and then clamped his legs, and the horse and man jumped up, impressively passing the rejecting horse in front of them.

Of course, there was also a rider who was not skilled and panicked accidentally bumped into the refusal horse and turned over all of a sudden, causing a small commotion.

As soon as the cavalry crossed the rejecting horse, they slammed into the formation of the rebels.

With a "click", the barrel of the spear in the hands of the rebel soldiers sitting on the ground snapped off.Some soldiers were knocked out on the spot; some soldiers were directly trampled by horseshoes, making miserable screams.

Some pierced through the enemy or horses, and still became the souls of the enemy's swords and horseshoes; some stood up and turned to escape, but were cut off half of their heads by the chasing cavalry.

This is a collision of flesh and flesh, blood and blood, a collision of life for life, life for life, the dance music of death, the mourning of funerals!
The dense formation formed by two pikemen was almost broken by the cavalry of officers and soldiers on the spot.Fortunately, these pikemen stopped the speed of the cavalry with their flesh and blood.

"Let the sword and axe go up to me!" I don't know how many low-ranking officers shouted loudly. It's time for the comrades to exchange their blood for the opportunity to collect the corresponding "debt".

Many knife and axe fighters were already frightened by the blood in front of them, and stood motionless.And some swordsmen were full of fear in their minds, and only relied on instinct to rush forward according to the officer's order.

With the big knife and long-handled ax in his hand, he slashed at the officers and soldiers with all his strength.Those who can reach cut people, and those who can't reach cut horses; there are also sword and shield hands, who protect their upper body with shields, roll over, and chop horses' legs with their waist knives.

"Crack!" There was only a crisp sound, followed by a scream.Cutting off a horse's leg is a very dangerous thing. If a war horse hurts, it only needs to kick hard, and the soldiers below will end up with broken tendons and bones.

In addition, the cavalry sits on the mount, which is much higher than the infantry, and it is more convenient to stab from top to bottom. The swordsman who was beaten by the cavalry is also miserable.

Fortunately, the tactics of the soldiers attacking the horses had achieved results. Many of the horses suffered pain and directly overturned the knights on their backs, rushing forward.When those knights landed, they were cut into several sections by soldiers with swords and axes.

It's too late to say, then soon!
The confrontation between the two sides was fierce and short, and soon the officers, soldiers and cavalry got rid of the entanglement of the rebel infantry, turned around and fled to both sides, and a new charge appeared outside the formation.

"Pikemen, pikemen!" The low-ranking officer of the rebel army shouted loudly, and began to reorganize his formation. "I will retreat all the knives and axes, and come up later!"

Go for a while, come for a while.The officers, soldiers, cavalry and the rebels fought repeatedly, and the front of the rebels was covered with corpses and blood stains.

"King Shun!" Niu Jinxing couldn't bear it anymore. Even if he was ruthless, he couldn't accept that the soldiers' lives were "wasted" on the battlefield like this. "Should we release the surprise soldiers?"

"Wait a little longer, wait a little longer, there is only one chance!" Zhang Shun resisted all kinds of discomfort, and replied expressionlessly.Kindness does not control soldiers, righteousness does not control wealth, if there is a slight mistake, more soldiers will die here in battle, so there is no way for him to be merciful.

"Haha, the thief is dead!" Zu Kuan looked at the two crumbling phalanxes in front of him, and said to Li Chongzhen with a smile, "You can break through this formation in one go, and the rest is time for slaughter!"

Li Chongzhen also showed a triumphant smile, nodded and said: "The frog in the well, how do you know how powerful my Liaodong cavalry is? Today let these thieves see what war is!"

"Order the whole army to charge in full force!"

Finally, the ground began to tremble. The cavalrymen who had been "biting" the rebel army like hyenas and wolves finally gathered together and prepared to launch a fatal blow!
The sound of "booming" horseshoes made a sound like a landslide and tsunami.The dense cavalry, like a mountain torrent and tsunami, rolled in, and the rebel soldiers looked at each other for a while.

Although he has seen it many times in this life, Zhang Shun still couldn't help but tremble from the bottom of his heart.He even felt his fingers start to tremble involuntarily.

Zhang Shun stood up abruptly, snatched the flag of the messenger beside him, shook it desperately, and ordered loudly: "Show the whole army, all the guns and guns will be fired, and all the surprise soldiers, prepare to fight back!"

Yes, the artillery hidden in the rebel formation has been hidden for a long time, and he just waited for this opportunity.

The officers, soldiers and cavalry screamed strangely, and rushed towards the infantry of the rebels.Gradually, they could see the pale face of the Yijun, the panicked eyes of the Yijun, and the trembling of the thief!

Thirty steps, twenty steps, fifteen steps, ten steps.
The deafening sound of cannons sounded like raindrops of cannonballs, which violently penetrated the armor of the officers and soldiers in front of them, penetrated their mounts, and penetrated their bodies.

Bloodlines are flying, people are turned on their backs, and life is like worthless weeds, which are ruthlessly harvested by small projectiles in pieces!
