Nanming: I can build wonders

Chapter 429 Charge with the Yellow Dragon Flag!
Zhangtai raised the scimitar in his hand high, and the national flag of the Yellow Dragon of the Qing Dynasty was fluttering in the wind behind him, and behind the flag were tens of thousands of Eight Banners cavalry.

It has to be said that the cavalry of the Eight Banners has always been the elite army of the Eight Banners. The [-] cavalry in the black mass were silent, calm and firm in the process of marching. It looks very pleasing to the eye.

Zhangtai's goal is obvious, he wants to lead the cavalry to destroy the artillery positions of the Ming army, only in this way can he turn defeat into victory!
It's just that the artillery positions are relatively far away, and the cavalry can't charge directly, so they start to lead the army and enter the final adjustment stage. All the Eight Banners riders are quietly waiting for Zhangtai's charge order.

"For the Qing Dynasty, go!"

The summer sun was a bit hot, and the heads of the soldiers on both sides of the battlefield were covered with sweat, while Zhangtai raised his long sword, and his legs hit the horse's belly fiercely, and the white horse under his crotch was like a sharp arrow after being stressed Generally fired.

In an instant, tens of thousands of horses galloped, and more than [-] Eight Banners brave cavalry circled around and charged the Ming army sideways.

The horses are so brave and resolute on the battlefield. They never flinched when they charged and fought on the vast battlefield. Thousands of hooves sent out wolf smoke and rolled, galloping, neighing, and their hair stood up.

Any movement on the battlefield is already concerned about everyone's heart. Prince An Yue Le held a diorama, watched Zhangtai's cavalry charge, his face fell into frenzy, and he muttered: "That's right, this This is the Qing Dynasty, this is the Eight Banners, authentic!"

In addition to the charge of the cavalry, Yue Le, an old tartar, also saw the follow-up troops of the Ming army, and they were launching an anti-siege towards Zhangtai's cavalry. .

At this time, Zhangtai's goal was the artillery position of the Ming army three miles away, and there was another obstacle in the way among them, which was the infantry position composed of the First Town of the Guards and the National Defense Army.

In ancient times, the impact caused by the galloping troops of thousands of horses was by no means comparable to that of infantry. The momentum of the charge of tens of thousands of horses alone was enough to scare normal people to pee their pants.

And for the No. [-] Town of the Guards, which is facing its edge, this time is an extremely difficult test.

And none of the soldiers in the first town was afraid. They looked serious, as if the cavalry in front of them were not the gods of war in the cold weapon era, but ants.

It is this fearless spirit, this is the spirit of the No. [-] town of the Guards, and this is why they can be called the No. [-] town, and they can undertake the heavy task of raiding Shuntian Mansion.

Facing the charge of the Qing army's cavalry, Pan Aqiang was not at all afraid. He leaned on his commanding sword with both hands, and quietly looked at the charging cavalry in front of him.

This is not because he has been frightened stupid, but because all of this has already been laid out, and he only needs to wait for the Qing cavalry to throw themselves into the net.

Behind Pan Aqiang, there were as many as thousands of brand-new black whirlwind rockets, pointing obliquely at the sky, and next to each rocket stood a Ming soldier, their faces were somewhat dignified.

In this Northern Expedition, the key to smashing the glory of the Qing cavalry lies in artillery and rockets.

In order to defend the artillery positions, a full [-] Black Whirlwind rockets were distributed, which can be called extremely extravagant.

The sound of rumbling horseshoes became more and more urgent. Eight Banners cavalrymen wore cotton armor and iron helmets on their heads. The formation of the arrow, and in the center of the arrow is Zhangtai himself. The cavalry beside him are waving the yellow dragon flag, and the momentum is gradually getting stronger.

Almost all the officers of the Qing army believed that the thin line of the Ming army in front of them could only choose to retreat and perish in front of the iron hooves of the Eight Banners.

But is this the case?
It was evening now, and in the afterglow of the setting sun, swords were brandishing, horseshoes were galloping, manes were flying, and the shiny swords reflected dazzling cold lights in the setting sun. The silhouettes of the Qing army on horseback flew towards the sky like clouds and fog. That majestic momentum, almost everyone who saw this scene, would silently admire it in their hearts.

However, when everyone on the battlefield focused on the charging cavalry, countless stars suddenly lit up on the Ming army's position. Those starlight spots rose from the ground and gradually turned into some black spots. Dragging a red tail flame, he rushed towards the cavalry of the Qing army, and then fell into the cavalry formation again.

After three years of development, the explosive power of the Black Whirlwind rocket is getting stronger and stronger. There are 6 pounds, 12 pounds, 24 pounds and even the largest 300 pounds, with explosive warheads.

"Boom--"

When a heavy rocket with a charge of up to 24 pounds fell on the center of the charging cavalry, the result was almost devastating!

Accompanied by a violent explosion, thousands of dense iron fragments shot out from the exploding rockets. These high-speed moving iron fragments almost sifted everything in the entire space, and naturally Including those horses and soldiers.

More than 300 such rockets fell on the cavalry of the Qing army one after another, and clouds of gunpowder smoke rose up, forming a blood-red place of death. Countless Qing cavalry, under such an attack, , Falling down one after another, the bright red blood is like a big river, flowing slowly!

Zhangtai, who rushed to the front, was always fearless. It was not that he did not see the falling rockets, nor did he fail to see the bayonet forest of the Ming army on the opposite side.

Because these are meaningless, because when his scimitar pointed at the artillery position of the Ming army, the cavalry of the Qing Dynasty could not choose to retreat.

Either step on it and conquer everything, or be beaten into a sieve and wiped out.

Rockets exploded around him one by one, taking away Zhangtai's personal guards one by one, but when those personal guards fell down, the expressions on their faces were very relaxed.

Because they looked at Zhangtai standing in the middle of the team, as long as he was still alive, the Eight Banners cavalry would not be defeated.

Amidst the roar of rockets, Daming's rifled guns also began to explode with great power. One after another, the explosive bullets were fired at the Qing army, causing huge casualties to the Qing army, and took them away mercilessly. their lives!
A roar sounded, and the Eight Banners guard carrying the banner beside Zhangtai was unfortunately hit. The horse he was sitting on almost fell forward, and the Yellow Dragon Banner in his hand seemed to fall down.

At the moment when he was about to fall, Zhang Tai sat down on his steed and ran past, and his hand firmly caught the national flag of the Qing Dynasty.

The surrounding Eight Banners soldiers were all excited when they saw this scene.

They began to lean towards Zhangtai with all their strength, for one thing only, that is to use their bodies to block the fragments of iron that might splash on Zhangtai.

The scene is tragic and heroic.

All the Eight Banners cavalry have only one purpose, and that is to prevent the flag of the Qing Dynasty from falling down. As long as it has not fallen down, others will follow the flag and charge into battle!
