Da Ming started to ascend the throne

Chapter 944
The Tsarist colonel almost fainted when he saw that nearly a thousand people under his command were killed by the cavalry of the Ming army, and more than 200 were killed by his own flintlock guns.

He didn't know whether what he just did was right or wrong, but he knew that this was the most useless battle he had fought since he joined the army, and he resolutely gave up the lives of a few soldiers for the lives of more soldiers.

In fact, this approach can be regarded as a kind of self-protection. If the musketeers had not been formed to stop the Ming cavalry just now, the thousands of infantrymen would have been almost wiped out by the Ming cavalry.

Chekov knew that the Ming army was coming soon, so he immediately ordered a cavalry to go to Ryazan to rescue the soldiers, otherwise none of them would be able to escape today.

About half an hour later, the large troops of the Ming army appeared in the sight of the Tsarist Russian colonel. Although he had already thought of this result in his heart, Chekov's face turned pale in an instant, but because they were all white-skinned dogs, their skins were already pale. It's just white, you can't see it at all.

"Quick, set up the formation!"

Seeing that the Ming cavalry had no intention of rushing forward, the Tsarist colonel immediately ordered to re-arrange the formation. If they still shot in a row, the Ming army surrounded them and they were finished.

Seeing Meng Liang and the others coming, Huang Dahu immediately urged his horse to meet him:

"Old Meng, the marksmanship of these Raksha ghosts is not bad, we dare not charge rashly, let's bombard them to death with shells!"

Meng Liang looked at the number of Russian troops, and he refused to use mortars:
"It's not easy to replenish shells. The Raksha Ghosts don't need to waste shells. They will immediately line up and kill them!"

"Shoot, why not let me lead the cavalry to charge!"

Huang Dahu muttered, he wasn't talking nonsense, Meng Liang was now the vanguard hand-picked by the Holy Majesty.

Meng Liang saw that Huang Dahu was a little upset, so he smiled slightly:
"Young Lord, ten thousand square meters also has an advantage in facing each other. How can Luo Shagui's broken gun be compared with the Ming Dynasty's rifled gun? Let's wait and see!"

Seeing that the Ming army was also in formation, the Tsarist Russian soldiers were a little confused. The artillery of the Ming army was so powerful just now, why not use it now:
"Colonel, what do you think Ming Jun is doing?"

The Tsarist colonel had long seen the Ming army forming formations, and he couldn't help but be overjoyed. If the Ming army didn't use artillery, they would have fierce fighting power, and they would definitely compete with the Ming army. They should be able to wait for the reinforcements to arrive.

After seeing the formation of the Ming army, the entire phalanx was slowly approaching them. The Tsarist colonel raised his command knife and ordered:

"Concentrate on fighting, the Ming army doesn't use artillery, we don't have to be afraid of them, wait for them to enter 80 meters and shoot!"

"Yes"

Tsarist Russian soldiers pointed their loaded flintlock guns at the Ming army, and they could shoot as long as the Ming army phalanx came into range:
"Two hundred steps..."

"120 steps..."

Tsarist Russian soldiers have been reporting the distance between the army and them. When reporting 120 steps, the Tsarist colonel raised his command knife:

"ready to shoot"

"Boom bang bang..."

Before he could shoot, the gunshot rang out suddenly, and the Tsarist colonel saw his subordinates fall down row by row, with blood holes appearing on their heads and chests...

"How is this possible? Our flintlock guns are the most advanced firearms in Western countries. How can they have a shorter range than the Ming army?"

The gunshots kept ringing, and the Rakshasa ghosts fell one by one. He shouted desperately:

"Shoot them quickly..."

"Boom bang bang..."

"Puff puff……"

Following his cry, the firearms of both sides rang out. Unfortunately, the Tsarist Russian soldiers fell down in a row, while the Ming army's firearms team all stood upright, and the Tsarist Russian flintlock seemed to have touched them at all.

But Tsarist Russia's army is also a battle-tested fighter after all. At this time, their willpower was revealed. Although some people fell down, their formation was not chaotic, and no one escaped. They were still shooting at the Ming army.

It's a pity that under such circumstances, tenacity can only die faster, and soon their commander realized this problem, and immediately ordered the formation to move forward, trying to quietly approach the range of their flintlock guns.

However, this kind of thinking seemed naive in front of the Ming army. These Ming troops were reorganized from the new army, and they were Sun Chuanting and Qin soldiers summoned by Zhu Youjian. Even the cavalry charge could not approach them, and the infantry was of course even more impossible.

Under the bombardment of the Mini bombs, as soon as the Tsarist Russian infantry moved two meters, hundreds of people fell down. Their bodies were all penetrated by the Mini bombs. The bombardment for half an hour caused more than 3000 Tsarist soldiers to lose about [-] .

The remaining one thousand or so people were immediately routed, and they all turned and rushed to the hundreds of horses behind, which were the horses left behind by the cavalry being killed.

Meng Liang smiled coldly:
"Cavalry attack!"

Huang Dahu had grown impatient for a long time, and when he heard Meng Liang's final order, he immediately led five thousand cavalry to charge there.

The swords of the five thousand cavalry shone dazzlingly in the sun, and they rushed to the fleeing soldiers of Tsarist Russia like a storm, shooting them from a distance, and slashing them with their swords. Let the Tsarist Russian soldiers be wiped out...

Looking at the corpses of Maozi all over the ground, Meng Liang didn't come to clean up the battlefield, and they didn't like Maozi's broken gun. As the vanguard of the Ming army, Meng Liang gave an order, and the army continued to march towards Liangzan.

The Ming army never had the habit of not cleaning the battlefield. Zhang Fugui was a little puzzled, urged his horse to come to Meng Liang's side and said with a smile:

"Pioneer officer, let's leave like this, aren't you afraid that the Holy One will blame you?"

Meng Liang smiled slyly:
"It's not that I'm not afraid. I'm worried that I'll be attacked by Tsarist Russian cavalry while cleaning the battlefield. I heard that the Cossack cavalry are very fierce. It's better to be careful. Cleaning the battlefield should be left to those overseas regiments!"

Meng Liang's words made Zhang Fugui suddenly realize:
"Oh, yes! I forgot that the Holy One brought 10,000+ natives..."

Meng Liang led the vanguard in front, and Zhu Youjian led the main force of the Ming army and had already set off, following the vanguard for more than an hour.

Meng Liang and his team entered Tsarist Russia in their first battle, and the battle report that they wiped out 6000 troops in Tsarist Russia soon spread to Zhu Youjian, and Zhu Youjian nodded again and again:

"This group of boys are worthy of being graduates of the Royal Military Academy. Even Rakshasa ghosts can tell that they are laying an ambush. They are the future of Daming!"

Li Yan clapped his hands in reply:

"Congratulations, Your Majesty, these young generals are really good, especially Meng Liang, the vanguard you handpicked. Lovin was killed, and in the end Golovin dropped an arm and fled."

Zhu Youjian nodded:
"It's really good. I heard that he almost died when he set the fire himself, right?"

Li Yan handed over again:

"Reporting to Your Majesty, as you said, the soldiers finally dug him out from the mound."

"Hahaha……"

Although the generals knew about this, they still laughed.

Speaking of Meng Liang, Zhu Youjian thought of his father Meng Zhaoxiang. Historically, when the capital city was broken, Meng Zhaoxiang refused to surrender to Li Zicheng, and led his family to fight against the bandits, and finally died of exhaustion.

"Remember, bullets don't have eyes now. In the future, commanders with positions above generals cannot take the lead in the charge. Once an accident occurs, the team will lose the commander. What's the point of winning the battle!"

"Thank you Your Majesty"
