Eighth year of Chongzhen
Chapter 480 Xuan Da Frontier Army
Chapter 480 Xuan Da Frontier Army
For the unexpected long-range weapons of the Ming army, the Qing army of the two blue flags was not mentally prepared, and even if they were prepared, they would not be able to guard against it.
Since Nurhachi raised troops against the Ming Dynasty, the Eight Banners basically fought against the Ming army in the northeast of Ming Dynasty, and then completely drove the Ming army out of Liaodong after the Battle of Sarhu.
Except for the battle of Sarhu, although the Ming and Qing armies have fought continuously for more than ten years, all of them were small-scale battles. The maximum number of troops invested by both sides was tens of thousands. The capital and courage of the army to carry out large-scale battles.
Although the Qing army has become stronger and stronger over the years, and has also broken into the border and plundered, including entering the Ming territory from the Xuanda border army's defense area, but the Ming army they encountered were all defending the city, and rarely fought in the field. There was a fierce battle with the Ming army in the brigade, so I don't know enough about this weird weapon used by the Ming army.
After the strange howling sounded all over the sky, the archers of the Qing army and the forwards in heavy armor all looked up involuntarily. What they saw were dense long arrows with fireworks at their tails, like black clouds covering the sky and the sun. Flying over or being pressed down on yourself.
In such a situation where it was too late to dodge or was unavoidable, the Qing army within the coverage of the arrow rain could only lower their heads and wait for the verdict of fate with fear and anxiety.
The screams of the archers of the Qing army were endless, and the long arrows that fell out of nowhere pierced through the cotton armor or helmets worn by the archers, instantly causing thousands of archers to lose their combat effectiveness.
Although not many Qing soldiers were killed on the spot, the archers who were shot by bows and arrows were basically shot in the upper half of the torso and arms.
The killing effect of the rain of arrows falling in the Qing army's forward formation is much worse. The reason is that the Qing army mostly wears three or two layers of heavy armor, and the worst thing is wearing double-breasted mail armor. The iron armor caused great damage to them. This round of arrow rain, although many Qing soldiers were hit by arrows, most of them were slightly injured, which did not prevent them from continuing to fight.
But for the two armies that were about to face each other, they were attacked by each other before the battle, and thousands of soldiers were lost. This was a big blow to the morale of the Qing army. The Qing army's archers had to be rearranged , and then marched towards the Ming army with a bow and arrow.
The injured Qing army archers can only retreat to the far end of the battle formation, so as not to affect the advancement of the formation, and the bodies of the Qing army who were shot to death can only be cleaned up after the battle.
On the contrary, at this moment, there was a huge cheer from the Ming army on the opposite side. The two hundred Ming soldiers who returned to the front of the formation were warmly welcomed by their comrades. The faces of these soldiers were filled with pride and pride from the heart. One by one, they returned to their own formation under the guidance of the battalion officer.
"Raise the shield! Archers go forward!"
After seeing the thousands of archers of the Qing army getting closer, Yang Guozhu ordered loudly.
An order was transmitted, and the two thousand Ming army swordsmen and shieldmen at the front raised their shields one after another, preparing to block the Qing army's long arrows from shooting, and the one thousand Ming army archers who had already formed their formation moved forward to meet them and prepare Shoot the Qing infantry on the other side.
Yang Guozhu and Hu Dawei had previously discussed how to fight against the Qing army. After some discussion, the two did not adopt the way of archers to fight against the Qing army, because they knew that their own archers could not be well-known for being good at archery. The Qing army, shooting against the enemy's strengths is to attack the enemy's strengths with their own weaknesses.
Because it is difficult to cultivate a qualified archer. Eyesight, arm span, concentration, etc. need to be much better than ordinary people to be selected, and a group of people will be eliminated in the process of forming an army, so they have always regarded it as an archer. These archers are treasures, and they are not willing to let them go up to die.
Although there are quite a few firecrackers in their army, the traditional concept formed over the years makes them still pay more attention to bows and arrows than firecrackers, and they also put firecrackers behind when facing the enemy.
More than [-] Qing army archers were divided into four square formations, and they stopped when they were fifty steps away from the Ming army's forward. The army came, followed by the brigade of Qing soldiers.
This is the most classic style of play of the Qing army: first use bows and arrows to disrupt the formation of the Ming army, and the heavily armored infantry approached, charging at a distance of [-] steps, taking advantage of the confusion of the Ming army to break into the Ming army formation, The armored soldiers behind them rushed into the gap, rushed left and right to quickly expand their advantages, and then waited for the Ming army to break the formation to cover up.
This kind of tactic is simple and practical, and it has been tried and tested repeatedly against the Ming army. Often, it only takes a short while for the Ming army to disperse. Every time the Qing army wins, it is so easy.
Seeing the large formation of archers of the Ming army moving forward, Meile Zhangjing, who was in charge of the front formation, immediately yelled a few words, and a team of 500 sword and shield players from the rear of the Qing army bypassed the front formation from one side and headed towards the Ming army. The army archers approached quickly, and Yang Guozhu, who was standing on a carriage, immediately ordered that the Ming army in the front line had [-] swordsmen and shields, and they also moved to one side, preparing to bypass their own archers and meet the Qing army swords and shields.
Taking advantage of the slightly chaotic situation in the front row of the Ming army, the archers of the Qing army immediately started shooting. Amidst the buzzing sound of bowstrings, thousands of long arrows soared into the sky and flew towards the large formation of the Ming army.
Covered by swords and shields is the Ming army's spear phalanx.
There are 4000 spearmen in the frontier army of Xuanda and the two towns with a total of 800 people. The front line is five rows of [-] spearmen with [-] people in each row.
While holding up the shields with swords and shields in hand, the spearmen lowered their heads one after another, using wide brims of iron helmets to block the damage of bows and arrows to the vital parts of the head.
From the first wave of arrow rain, the archers of the Qing army quickly shot the long arrows in the quiver. Within ten breaths, most of the archers shot eight or nine long arrows, and stopped shooting after their arms swelled and numb. Some strong archers continued to throw.
Under the throwing of more than 2 heavy arrows, although they were covered by shields, the Ming army's spearmen still suffered a lot of casualties, and there were screams in the formation. More than a thousand Ming soldiers were hit by arrows, among which more than [-] were killed on the spot, and there was a huge gap in the front row of the Ming army.
At this time, the heavily armored pawns of the Qing army, who were breathing evenly [-] steps away, saw the timing and stepped forward without saying a word. After a few steps, they began to charge at an accelerated speed. Everyone was holding maces and long-handled axes. Heavy weapons such as guns, iron flails, and iron whips, as long as they get close to them, the already incomplete formation of the Ming army will soon be broken.
Yang Guozhu and Hu Dawei, who were behind the second phalanx of [-] spears, took everything in the front row into their eyes. The expressions on their faces were shock and heartache, and even a trace of fear .
They had never fought the Qing army in the field, and they never thought that the Qing army's bows and arrows were so destructive. The current situation is already at stake. As soon as the two sides joined the battle, their own side suffered a big loss. It seems that the first battle is very difficult. Don't know how many good men can survive.
At this moment, the heavy armored infantry of the Qing army had already met the sword and shield hands who were in front of them and had not had time to retreat.
Thanks to sister Jinmojin for the reward.Push the book, the new book of the great god, the author's old book returned to the Ming Dynasty to be a tyrant, and the new book "The Outstanding Youth of the Ming Dynasty" landed on the starting point, everyone is welcome to appreciate it.
