Nanming: I can build wonders

Chapter 432 The Astonishing Results of the Eight Mile Bridge Battle

When the guards surrounded Zhangtai's Eight Banners cavalry regiment, Yue Le arrived with five thousand Mongolian cavalry. He watched the charge of the guards cavalry completely, and couldn't help but gasped. I thought that the cavalry of Ming Yao in the south must be not good, but I didn't expect that this is not like a new army at all.

The separate advance and joint attack of the cavalry of the Guards, coupled with the integrity of the formation, undoubtedly did not show that the cavalry strength of the Guards was not inferior to the Manchus and Mongols at all.

Perhaps the riding skills among them are not superb, and they are not as good as those who grew up on horseback, but they have completely concealed this through the cooperation of the group, and their cavalry always maintain the same posture when charging. With a tight formation, without showing any flaws, this is actually very difficult to do.

Even the Mongolian cavalry are not good at formation, but with super endurance, they bite the enemy tightly and do not let go, just like wolves on the grassland, using time to defeat all powerful enemies.

Among them, what surprised Yue Le the most was that the guards' horses seemed to be better than he imagined, and almost all of them were good horses who could stand shoulder to shoulder with Hexi horses. Where did they come from? I haven't heard of any good horse farms in the south.

Daming's war horse must be good, after all, with the bonus of quality concept, coupled with careful cultivation, it's no wonder that there are no good horses!

"Only hit people, not horses!"

Looking at the horses sitting on the Mongolian Junggar cavalry, Pan Aqiang felt distressed to some extent. In fact, the number of excellent war horses in the new Ming Dynasty is not too many, and it takes at least two to three years for a war horse to grow from a young horse to the battlefield. It is said that one dead horse is one less.

In addition to this cross-sea battle, the horses themselves are nervous after all.

Therefore, at the beginning, Pan Aqiang wondered if he could capture some good horses from the Mongolian cavalry and the Eight Banners cavalry, so that there would be more battles in the future, and his guard cavalry would not have no horses to ride at all!
When the cavalrymen of the guards heard the roar of their own town, they all thought of it in an instant. They moved their trigger rifles up a bit, aimed at the Junggar cavalry on the horse, and followed the crackling of their guns. Afterwards, the charging Junggar cavalry fell off their horses like dumplings, leaving only some unowned horses continuing to charge forward.

Seeing this scene, Yue Le almost exploded with anger. Do these people still have some pride as cavalrymen?First with muskets, then with pistols, and later throwing grenades?Can all real warriors fight duels with spears and sabers?
Not to mention, Yue Le's prophecy was accurate. Once he got close, the guard cavalry threw a wave of grenades insidiously.

Just after the bullets and grenades of the trigger rifles in the hands of the guards were also fired, the cavalry put the rifles back on the back of the horses, and drew out their sharp sabers again. At this time, the Junggar cavalry was almost defeated several times. There were only more than 4000 cavalry left who were beaten dizzily.

With four thousand against three thousand, it seems that the Junggar cavalry of the Qing Dynasty has the upper hand in numbers, but on the battlefield at this time, no one would make such a calculation, because the morale of the two sides is completely different, and the guards are in the middle of nowhere. The most expensive state, and the Mongolian cavalry is only the last straw left to collapse.

Pan Aqiang knew that the opportunity should not be missed. He just raised the saber in his hand and roared loudly: "Come on! Destroy them completely!"

More than [-] Guards cavalry drew out their sharp sabers and held them straight forward. The sharp edge almost gave people a gloomy feeling, with the taste of death, and rushed to the front. Junggar cavalry.

Almost in an instant, the two sides collided completely. The confrontation of spears and sabers made each other have no room to retreat. It was only for a moment that a large number of cavalry on both sides fell directly to the horses. The cruelty can be seen .

During the progress of the cavalry, both sides will form a melee situation. They hope to pass through the opponent's formation staggered, slow down and meet the nearest enemy cavalry, so as to cut the opponent under the horse. At this time, the rider's attack on the horse Control, as well as the use of the saber, will directly determine the key factors of cavalry close combat.

In terms of equestrianism, the Guards are indeed inferior to the Mongols, but their formation is more complete, so the gap in this aspect has not been exposed. In addition to the skills of the two sides, the Guards also have the ability to compete with sabers and spears. They are protected by breastplates and helmets, so at the moment of confrontation, they have an absolute advantage-most of the cavalry who fell off their horses were Junggar cavalry.

After this round of melee confrontation, the morale of the nearly crushed Junggar cavalry collapsed completely. Even if they surrendered to the Qing Dynasty, their morale was not high, and they did not plan to fight to the death for the Qing Dynasty. Generally speaking, their performance was not bad. Not as good as the Eight Banners Cavalry!

Facing the Guards cavalry who charged again, they did not continue to choose to fight, but reined in their horses and began to retreat. In this kind of battle, once someone couldn't hold on and chose to evacuate, the collapse of others would also be inevitable. became inevitable.

Yue Le couldn't save the current situation, he could only break through the encirclement of the Qing army camp in the distance under the protection of his guards, and the sabers of the guards only followed behind, and began to harvest the last remaining Junggar cavalry. Once you find signs of regrouping on the opposite side, you will immediately charge again like a storm!

In addition to the cavalry fleeing, the infantry of the Qing army, who had completely lost their command, was already weak. After a period of fright and fleeing, panting, Pan Aqiang ordered the soldiers of the guards to shout in unison: "Survivors will not die! "

Immediately, half of the Qing soldiers with limp legs were completely paralyzed on the ground, crying and begging for mercy.

At the end of the whole day of fighting, the guards won an unimaginable victory, wiped out the two main cavalry of the Qing army, and completely wiped out the Eight Banners new army in Zhangjiatang. A full 3 people were lost, while the casualties of the Guards and National Defense Forces were only more than 9000 people, 2000 were killed and injured by Koryo cannon fodder, and [-] were killed and injured by Dongying cannon fodder.

In the minds of all the Guards soldiers, this is an acceptable number of casualties. After all, as long as the fight continues like this, the Qing Dynasty will be doomed, and then the Ming Dynasty will be able to truly win the world.

They will also become great heroes, and will be appointed officials and nobles by Zhu Kezang.

As the sun sets, the moonlight shines on the Bali bridge deck, which is blood-colored.

In the Guards camp, the lights were brightly lit at this time, and teams of Guards soldiers were patrolling the camp. There were also a few battalions on the periphery that also strictly guarded the line of defense to prevent the Qing army from using night attacks, even though they had already He was completely beaten to the ground, but he still couldn't relax his vigilance a little bit.

Happy Lantern Festival, book friends!
