Feng Guangcai is a Han from Liaodong. When he was very young, his parents became servants of the Bao Yi with a white flag. Naturally, he also became a Bao Yi.

His master had been ordinary bannermen for two generations, but in this generation he had made several military exploits in the past few years and became a branch Bashku of the White Banner, with twenty or thirty ordinary Eight Banners soldiers under his command.

In addition, after entering the customs, the master robbed a lot of property, so the life of a young and strong man like him, who is considered a son of the family, will naturally be much easier.

This time he went on an expedition with the army. His master not only equipped him with a waist knife and a walking bow, but also got him a pair of leather armor. He was quite touched and encouraged himself, preparing to perform meritorious service to bring glory to his master and a future for his family. .

After he fired a hail of arrows with other Bao Yi and Aha with his walking bow, he suddenly heard a cry of killing.

He boldly looked sideways and saw an incredible scene.

I saw that hundreds of people from the Wei army from the south broke away from the military formation and rushed over in large strides!

'You actually want to rush over and fight us in close combat? Isn't this seeking death? '

When Feng Guangcai was thinking this, he saw Bao Yi and Aha shooting arrows and knocking down several Yi troops.

However, these troops did not really charge forward, but stopped about seven or eight steps away (step = 1.5 meters. The difference between step and step has been mentioned many times before. The step that modern people often refer to is actually step). I lit a dark object and threw it over!

what?

While Feng Guangcai was confused, he instinctively sensed danger. When he saw the dark thing falling, he hurried away.

Before he had taken two steps, he heard several booming explosions, and at the same time, a surge of air pushed him to the ground. There are also a few stabbing pains on the body, and I don’t know what kind of injury he suffered.

Feng Guangcai struggled to get up, and when he saw the scene in front of him, his eyes widened in horror.

I saw that almost all the twenty or thirty wrappers and slaves behind the carriage were blown down by that thing.

Some people were lying on the ground motionless with bloody flesh, not knowing whether they were dead or alive; others had their arms broken by the explosion, or their faces were covered in blood, rolling on the ground and wailing in pain; like him, he only suffered some flesh injuries, but he could still get up. I'm already lucky.

Looking at the other trucks next door, the situation is probably the same.

"kill!"

Another burst of shouts of killing broke out, and the enemy troops took the opportunity to rush behind the carriage.

The man who looked like an army officer held a short blunderbuss and struck with his hand.

There were also some soldiers who continued to throw the black stuff at crowded places.

There were more sword players who rushed directly to kill.

Suddenly, Feng Guangcai couldn't think about anything anymore, and subconsciously started fighting with a sergeant with a waist knife.

Because he was born in the same family, he did not eat badly when he was growing up. He was tall and strong. He also practiced bows, swords and even horseback riding with his master on weekdays.

He had several experiences fighting the Ming army.

Among the Ming army, only those servants could fight him evenly. Those ordinary soldiers of the Ming Dynasty were all sallow and skinny, or tall and had no strength. Their armors were shoddy and their weapons were not sharp. They were often killed by him with just a few swords during battles.

At this time, he discovered that the oncoming Wei troops were all well-armored and had sharp and tough weapons.

Just like fighting with him, this soldier Wei seems to be holding a hundred-smelted steel knife, and the other hand is an iron shield covered with iron, and he is also wearing a fine cotton armor.

'Is it possible that those who rushed over were all the servants of the Wei army? ! '

While fighting, Feng Guangcai couldn't help but come up with this idea.

Then he was forced to retreat continuously, and other coats took his place. Before he could go up again, he tripped over something and fell unconscious...

Naturally, this battle will not end because of the coma of a Qing soldier, but will become more and more intense.

When the officers and soldiers of the Yi army realized that the carriages were hindering the effectiveness of their own artillery and muskets, they all attacked decisively.

Just like the first battalion to charge, there is still a wave of grenades seven or eight steps away from the carriage. Then, while the Qing army was bombed to death and injury, they rushed forward and continued to eliminate the Qing army's effective forces with waist knives, long spears, short muskets, etc.

The Qing army had not encountered such a ferocious, well-equipped, and high-morale enemy for many years. They were suddenly defeated and unable to resist!

Some soldiers of the Qing Dynasty even saw that their carriages were being captured one by one by the soldiers of the Yi army. They were so frightened that they forgot about military law and fled back in panic.

Whether it was Abatai, Bolo and others in front of the Qing army's formation, or Turg who was commanding behind the carriage array, they were all shocked when they saw that their own side was about to collapse after being beaten by the Yi army.

After coming back to his senses, Turge understood that at this time, he could no longer retreat.

Once he retreats, it is likely to turn into a huge rout affecting the entire army!

"Those who run away from the battlefield will be killed immediately!"

Turge immediately led a group of Manchurian soldiers to play the role of supervising the battle team, killing Baoyi, Aha, and even a few bannermen of the Qing army who had been taken over by panic.

The harsh military law worked. Many panicked and frightened Qing troops came to their senses and returned to their respective carriages to fight to the death with the invading Wei troops.

At the same time, more than a thousand Mongolian elite cavalry led by Shu Lun and Xili Dege each rushed to the flank of the Wei army again. They originally thought that the Eijun army took the initiative to charge, and the melee between the frontal troops and their own chariot array would cause holes in the wings of the Eijun army's formation, or at least weaken its strength, giving them an opportunity to take advantage of it.

Unexpectedly, they rushed over and suffered another round of fierce Tiger Crouching Artillery bombardment, killing and wounding another two to three hundred people, and had to retreat.

In front of the Qing army, Abatai realized that this battle could no longer end easily, but had evolved into a life-and-death bloody battle, and he became increasingly red-eyed.

He immediately ordered Bolo to take three Niulu Manchu soldiers and the remaining Eight Banners Han army to join them!

There was only one Manchurian soldier left beside him.

The Eight Banners soldiers from lowest to highest are infantry, horse armor, red armor, and white armor.

Ordinary flag soldiers are considered infantrymen when they join the army, but they are also generally required to be able to draw a powerful bow and lift heavy weights. The vest requires the ability to ride, cut and even shoot on foot in addition to infantry combat, which makes them elite.

As for the red-armored soldiers, they are promoted from infantry and horse-armored soldiers after meritorious service. Generally speaking, only those who have accumulated more than ten levels of head ranks can be promoted to red-armored soldiers, that is, Hongya La.

Red-armored soldiers do not mean wearing red armor, but wearing at least two layers of armor, usually chain armor and cotton armor (or cloth armor).

The most powerful white-armored soldiers are the best among the Eight Banners soldiers.

There is no promotion standard, but only the person with the strongest force and the highest military exploits among the thirty or fifty people can become a white-armored soldier, that is, Bai Ya La (Baya La).

In a Niulu, there are usually only ten white-armored soldiers and thirty or fifty red-armored soldiers.

At this time, Bolo brought in three Niulu Eight Banners Manchu soldiers and five Niulu Eight Banners Han troops, which meant that the Qing army already had seventy or eighty more white-armored soldiers, or two to three hundred red-armored soldiers!

Suddenly the pressure on the army increased greatly!

However, at this time, after the Yi army's artillery used army artillery to destroy the Qing army's artillery positions, the subsequent second and third rounds of shelling, as well as extended shelling, also caused considerable casualties to the Qing army.

Zhang Xin was in a condescending position on the observation car and had a telescope. It could be said that he could see the entire battlefield.

He had to admit that the Qing army was the strongest enemy he had encountered since he joined the Yi army. It was no wonder that he was able to invade the Central Plains several times. He entered uninhabited territory and defeated the Shun army at Shanhaiguan.

Seeing that the Qing generals had sent almost all the soldiers and horses around him, Zhang Xin also decisively sent more troops.

The brigade's cavalry battalion and reconnaissance battalion asked him to send them to hunt down the retreating Mongolian cavalry.

After the second regiment, not only the third regiment joined the battlefield, but also the two combat battalions of the brigade were sent out. Only the guard battalion, the baggage battalion, half the military police battalion, and half the health battalion were left around him.

Even the military police battalion is actually supervising the battle.

At this point in the battle, almost all the effective forces of both sides have been used. There is no room for any cunning and cunning. It depends on which side has higher morale, tougher soldiers, and better equipment.

Although the Yi army's matchlock guns had little room for use, grenades were invincible on the battlefield. Whether it was the Qing army's white armor, red armor, or Bao Yi, or Aha, they had to get down when they encountered them.

At the same time, the short muskets equipped by the officers also played a somewhat surprising role.

However, what played a leading role was the higher morale of the Yi army than that of the Qing army.

In the final analysis, the Qing army was still just a feudal army, while the Yi army was already leaning towards a modern army - almost all the sergeants and soldiers in the army were literate and could count, and the military and political officers were even more integrated with the soldiers.

In this kind of battle, military and political officers also rush to kill, which is of great help to boost morale.

In addition, all the soldiers of the Yi army who participated in the war were regular soldiers, and they were given generous pensions after casualties on the battlefield, so they had no worries.

In the Qing army, only the bannermen had this kind of treatment. Bao Yi and Aha, who accounted for a small portion of the army, did not have such treatment. Even their equipment, fighting will, and physical fitness were far inferior to those of regular soldiers.

As a result, the fierce battle lasted for less than a quarter of an hour, and the Qing army could no longer hold on.

"kill!"

Seeing that the situation was declining, Turg personally joined in the fight. However, just after he killed two Wei soldiers, he was hit in the face by a Yi army officer with a short musket and died on the spot.

Turgen was a senior general in the army, and he was also a member of the Xiangbai Banner Gushan Ezhen. His death immediately caused the morale of the Manchu soldiers affiliated with the Xiangbai Banner to plummet, and they began to flee.

At this time, the Qing army's supervising team could not stop the rout, and it quickly turned into a huge rout that affected the entire army!

"The Qinglu were defeated!"

"Kill!"

"Kill the Tartars!"

dong dong dong

The sound of drums shook the earth, and the blood of the Yi army was boiling after a fierce battle, shouting to chase and kill the fleeing Qing army.

For a time, in the wilderness near Sangyuan Town, the Qing army was killed by the Yi army, leaving behind countless casualties and armor! (End of chapter)
