Chapter 1008 Caught Fried Flowers Alive (Part [-])
In all fairness, Ma Chengen's offensive just now was indeed quite ingenious, but Chaohua Taiji was a Mongolian general after all, so such a tricky trick was undeniable in front of him.

This wave just now was mainly due to Ma Chengen taking advantage of Chaohua's eagerness to win in this situation, first pretending to confront him for a while, and then temporarily leading the cavalry to draw a curved arc, using the momentum of the horse to drive Chop the saber, forming "sawtooth".

This tactic is not a temporary creation of Ma Chengen, and it cannot even be regarded as the original creation of the Ma family. The Mongols had similar tactics as early as 200 years ago, including Chataiji who used a similar tactic last time.

But just as the saying goes that soldiers are impermanent, and water is impermanent, the way to use soldiers must be in line with the environment and mission at that time. The situation of Chataiji last time was different from today. At that time, he was purely harassing, so It's just leading troops across the arc but not relying on horsepower to fight.

Since it was one of the inherent tactics of the Mongols, after Chaohua Taiji came back to his senses, Ma Chengen certainly couldn't do it again. After all, as long as the Chaohua Department is prepared, this move is not impossible.For example, before the formation of the "left-turn arc" of the Ming army, Chaohua Taiji could either draw a left-turn arc (to the left of himself) to avoid it, or do the opposite, rushing to the right - directly Cut off the left-turn arc of the Ming army.

The former response is for everyone to run away and start over again, while the latter response is equivalent to a comparison of "who can intercept whom", and it becomes a battle of strength.

Ma Chengen obviously refused to fight for strength. Although he wanted to make meritorious service, he would not forget his mission.

At this time, Ma Dong was ready for the second wave of harassment, and approached again with his troops. He was shocked when he turned around and saw Ma Chengen's actions just now, thinking that this guy was really going to charge, while thinking In a hurry, he shouted repeatedly, asking his subordinates to regroup immediately and prepare for rescue.

Fortunately, this was a false alarm. He is now relieved and still follows the scheduled plan. The purpose is to prevent Chaohua Taiji from integrating the team properly and resting.

There was nothing particularly worth mentioning about the following situation. Ma Dong and Ma Chengen each launched four waves of harassment in a row, which was equivalent to turning left for a while and turning right for a while, including the previous wave. Then fight ten times.

Iron fighters can't afford to play like this. After all, Ma Dong and Ma Chengen can fight for a while and rest for a while, but Chaohua keeps fighting.

Fortunately, after this period of time passed, the panting Chaohua Taiji found that his subordinates had gathered almost—anyway, those who hadn't gathered for so long could basically be regarded as dead people.

He didn't dare to hesitate any longer, and ordered one of his personal guards to blow the small horn, and led the troops in an irregular S-shape, avoiding this wave of offensives from Ma Dong and Ma Chengen, and directly rushed to the opening of the encirclement circle in the south. and go.

Ma Dong was covered in sweat at the moment, and the armor was stained with a lot of blood. Fortunately, it didn't look like he was injured himself.Although he was also tired, he was in good spirits. Seeing that Chao Hua had finally led his troops south, instead of rushing to chase after him, he ordered to retreat a little, with his back against the Daliao River, and sent out scout horses to monitor Chao Hua's movements, while the main force dismounted to rest on the spot.

Ma Chengen also ran over and gave the same order.There were more bloodstains on his body than Ma Dong's, and his whole body exuded a pungent bloody smell.

Seeing Ma Dong taking off his helmet and blowing the river wind, Ma Chengen couldn't help persuading him: "Chan Rong, the river wind is biting in late autumn, be careful of the wind when you take off your armor, we won't be too late to rest after the fight."

Ma Dong knew that Ma Chengen's father, Ma Fu, died of armor removal after the Great War, so he could understand his mentality, but he still smiled and said: "I don't want to take off my armor, but I sweated too much just now, and I have to put this helmet on." It’s not stable, take it off and put it on for ventilation.” As he spoke, he was afraid that Ma Chengen would not believe him, so he looked at the helmet, and then snapped it back on his head and fastened it on.

The sweat and blood on Ma Chengen's body was actually worse than Ma Dong's, but he was concerned about Chaohua's head, and he didn't want to rest now, so he just asked: "Can the pawns on Zhang Sanxi's side withstand it? When will we go back to Chaohua?" Take the last blow?"

Zhang Wanbang was not counted as the commander in chief of the southern line, and Pu Yuanyi was the temporary commander in chief of the southern defense line, because he brought the most troops among the three commanders there.

However, Zhang Wanbang not only has his 1000 soldiers under his command, but also the more than [-] infantry that Gao Yushi entrusted to him. They are the most elite troops on the southern front, so they are arranged in an area that is most suitable for cavalry to break through—— It wasn't that Gao Yushi could know from hundreds of miles away, but Ma Dong judged it.

Ma Dong thought that the Mongols would definitely not think carefully after being harassed several times by himself and Ma Chengen, and they must have launched an attack directly on the area most suitable for the cavalry to break through, intending to break out of the encirclement, so Zhang Wanbang was placed there, I hope that Zhang Wanbang can show his strength to resist Xin Ai's onslaught during the Monan War and block the Mongols to death.

At this time Ma Chengen asked this question, Ma Dong smiled and said: "Don't worry, Zhang Sanxi is now known as the iron wall, let him sharpen his enthusiasm for frying flowers on the southern line, so we can save some effort later... Listen, isn't this the cannon going off?"

It turned out that at this time there was the sound of cannons firing from the southern line, and it was obvious that Zhang Wanbang had already fought with Chaohua.

Zhang Wanbang's infantry is not only equipped with muskets, he also has a batch of artillery specially strengthened by Gao Yushi. This batch of artillery has no heavy artillery, and they are all small-caliber Jinghua-made Lang machine guns and old-style tiger squat guns from Ming Dynasty.

The former was originally stocked and equipped by Gao Jiabuding, and the latter was mobilized from various places in southern Liaoning.

The so-called "inventory equipment" is a trick created by Gao Pragmatism, because his family has no reason to equip artillery, so they don't usually equip it directly, but they will build a warehouse in the area where the family is stationed, and store a batch of artillery nearby. Claimed to be sold to the local army...

This is a very magical authority for the ministers and generals of the Ming Dynasty. They can all purchase weapons for their own troops, and they only need to send a document to the Ministry of War to report to the Ministry of War before or after the event.

Of course, the Ministry of War usually won't give money, at most it will just reply to say that it knows, and then make a note of it.

Right now Zhang Wanbang has a total of 77 cannons, of which 24 are Jinghua-made Xianglang cannons, which are the main artillery for this battle.

The gunshots that Ma Dong and Ma Chengen heard at this time were emitted by these Flang cannons with a longer range.

On the battlefield on the southern front six or seven miles away, Zhang Wanbang stood on a small hill, watching the cavalry of the Chaohua Department roll in with no expression on his face, he just watched the shells fall coldly. point, and a "grass-free belt" about one foot wide - that is the isolation zone formed by artificially burning off the weeds on it.

When the cavalry of the Chaohua Department stepped through this isolation zone, Zhang Wanbang shouted coldly: "The shooting angle of the Flang cannon is lowered by one point, and continue to fire; the tiger squatting cannon starts to fire!"
