Crazy at the end of the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 769 Attacking the Frontal Phalanx

In fact, this is also a little bit transparent.The generals of the Qing army were veterans who had experienced many battles. After observing them carefully, they understood the intention of the Runing army to encircle them.So Abatai and the others immediately became furious.

This is no longer provocation, it has become naked contempt.Abate thought angrily in his heart: "Don't those Ming dogs think that we Manqing athletes are lambs? Surround us with some shepherd dogs to trap us? You know, we are hungry wolves on the grassland, the bravest and most powerful Vicious wolves!"

"Lord Baylor! Where are we going to fight?" Those Qing generals were also enraged.So at this time, they had forgotten the sense of fear when they saw the heavy cavalry just now, and began to volunteer.

"Go ahead!" Abatai said with gritted teeth, "Since the general Minggou wants to eat us, let's feed him and see how his teeth are doing, and see if his big teeth will be broken."

Then Abatai asked the left and right: "Do you know who the general opposite is?"

The generals of the Qing army were all peeking at each other.The Ru Ning army has a leader like Wu Shigong who especially likes Yin people, so he has never had the habit of displaying his general flag to the public, so it is difficult to tell who is the commander in chief from the flag.Therefore, these generals of the Qing army did not know which army was led by which Ming general they were facing.

"I don't know. Lord Baylor!"

"I don't know, it's nothing!" Abatai waved his hand indifferently and said, "Whoever he is, I'll cut off his head today. When I go back, I will make him into a chamber pot. Listen carefully, who will put the That Ming will offer his head, besides the emperor's reward, the Lord will give him another generous reward."

"twitter!"

When the generals of the Qing army, such as Abatai, found out that they were surrounded by the Runing army, they did not think of breaking out, but chose to attack the large square formation of the Runing army in front.In a vain attempt to defeat the frontal enemy in one fell swoop, he went straight to the Huanglong of the Runing Army.

This move is not just that these Qing army generals were dazzled by anger, it is also a tactic that the Qing army has always used well.

The Qing army was originally from the Liaodong fishing and hunting people, so the tactics used naturally had traces of hunting.In the previous battles of the Qing army, cavalry were often used to lay a layer of encirclement or semi-encirclement encirclement circles around the Ming army, and then compressed inwards, oppressing the Ming army's psychological collapse with a four-sided attack, and then in all directions. Attacking the Ming army made the Ming army surrounded by enemies and hard to defend.

It is very interesting that the tactics adopted by the Runing Army today are in the form of hunting.therefore.Abatai and the others knew this tactic very well. They knew that they should not panic and must concentrate their forces to disrupt the rhythm of the Runing Army's attack.

Moreover, since Nurhachi's rise of troops, the Qing army has always fought more with less fighting than the Ming army, and sometimes it will be surrounded by heavy troops of the Ming army.therefore.The current Qing army also has considerable experience in dealing with this situation.So Abatai and the others didn't mess up because they were surrounded.

The current Qing army is going to attack the front Runing Army phalanx like a storm, and then storm the Runing Army's central army after defeating the phalanx.To mobilize the cavalry of the Runing Army surrounding the periphery by threatening the commander of the Runing Army.Then mess up the formation of the Runing Army, and then win in chaos, defeating the entire Runing Army.

And this plan is not a dream, and the possibility of success is quite high.Because the Qing army had more than 5000 cavalry, as long as the cavalry from the surrounding Runing Army did not attack, they could defeat the 2000 infantry in the phalanx at once.By any measure, this is a breeze.After that, Wu Shigong only had more than [-] people around him. From the perspective of military strength, the frontal Runing Army was at an absolute disadvantage.

If the Runing army mobilized troops from the troops crossing the river to fight, then the Qing army on the south bank of the Wuming River would certainly not be indifferent.So although it seems that the Qing army of the Abatai Department is in an unfavorable battlefield position.But as long as it is used well, it is the key chess piece that determines the victory.Of course, this is also the result of Abatai and the others not understanding the combat effectiveness of the Runing Army and treating them as ordinary Ming troops.

It can be seen from this that the generals of the Qing army were indeed quite calm on the ever-changing battlefield.And he has absolute confidence in his troops, even to the point of arrogance.

"Ah—!?" Seeing the mobilization of the Qing army, Wu Shigong was surrounded by exclamations.The officers of the Runing Army did not expect that the Qing Army not only did not want to break through, but decided to launch an attack on the front of the Runing Army.

In Wu Shigong's pre-war plan, he did not take into account the possibility of the Qing army attacking the front after being besieged.

To be honest, under Wu Shigong's careful arrangements before the battle, coupled with some small luck, the Runing Army did successfully surround the Qing army.But Wu Shigong also understood in his heart: the encirclement circle set up on the periphery is indeed a little weaker.

According to Wu Shigong's vision: The besieged Qing army will definitely break through with all its strength.Because no army wants to fight with enemies on all sides, because it is completely against military common sense.

And no matter which side the besieged Qing army breaks out from, the Runing Army cavalry over there will try to entangle them as much as possible, waiting for the arrival of the Runing Army from the other three sides, and then wipe out the encircled Qing army.

But after all, the strength of each side of the Runing Army is very weak.If the besieged Qing army broke through with all their strength, it would be difficult to keep them all, or even half of them would be considered good.Moreover, the cavalry of the Runing Army who are responsible for the entanglement will also suffer a lot of casualties.But no matter what, the chasing Qing army was finally disabled, and the Runing army would not be harassed or attacked by the chasing Qing army when they crossed the river.

But Wu Shigong didn't expect that the besieged Qing army would take the action of breaking the boat and attacking him.You know, this is a very risky move.If the Qing army cannot break through the frontal phalanx of the Runing Army in a short period of time, the outer cavalry will also shrink the encirclement to make up for the weakness of the troops.In this way, this Qing army will face the siege of the Runing Army on all sides, and even the possibility of annihilation of the entire army, which can be said to be the most stupid choice.

Wu Shigong couldn't help marveling at the audacity of the Qing army, but he really liked this kind of audacity.Wu Shigong's eyes lit up, he licked his lips, he just wanted to see how Qing Jun was beaten to death in front of his carefully trained large formation.You know, there are not only [-] gunners in this large square, but also the three-pound and six-pound artillery of the artillery regiment and a swarm of chariots.

"Marshal! Marshal!" The shouts around Wu Shigong woke up from his excitement, he turned his head and saw Wang Sheng talking in panic.

"Commander! The Tartars are coming menacingly, you should avoid it first! Or...or the younger ones will lead people to help the battle immediately and cover the commander's retreat?" Wang Sheng couldn't bear it just now. There was an exclamation sound.However, his exclamation was not the same as that of the officers of the Runing Army. He was worried that the Chinese army would fall and Wu Shigong would be in danger.

"Hahaha——!" Wu Shigong burst into laughter immediately.He pointed at Wang Sheng and said with a smile, "There is nothing to worry about. You can just watch the battle with peace of mind! My hands are really itchy. I will follow my official order later and go fight the dog in the water."

Wang Sheng's eyes immediately opened wide, and he opened his mouth in a daze, unable to say anything.

The elite cavalry of the Qing army began to line up in front of the formation.Because it was necessary to defeat the phalanx with a single blow, Abate didn't care about preserving his strength.So it took 200 cavalry for the first charge.And they are basically white armored soldiers in armor.They lined up four rows before and after, forming a large line of [-] people in each row.

While watching the white-armored soldiers in front of him in formation, Abatai told a general of the Qing army, "Take another three Niu Lu and follow behind. If you can't get ahead, you will go ahead. Make sure once." Success. Don’t worry about what’s behind you, we’ll take care of all the bright dogs on the other sides.”

"twitter!"

Hearing the sound of drums coming from the Abate handsome flag, the cavalry of the Qing army was dispatched.And the large square formation of the Runing Army also stopped, and all the musketeers in the square formation stepped forward and lined up, and artillery carts and swarms of chariots were constantly pulled up and placed on both sides of the square formation.But when the Qing army entered the range of the artillery, the artillery of the Runing army remained silent strangely.

The Qing army in the first row came to a place one hundred and twenty or thirty steps away from the Runing army.According to the old routine they dismounted and shot.But they hadn't lined up their archery formation yet, but they were suddenly fired by the artillery of the Runing Army. More than [-] shells knocked the white armored soldiers on their backs, and even the white armored soldiers in the second row riding forward were shrouded in the artillery fire.

Those white armored soldiers who were lucky enough to survive fled back desperately, and these rout soldiers blocked the Qing cavalry in the third and fourth rows.The first time the Qing army charged into battle, they returned in despair without firing an arrow.

Seeing this situation, Abatai, who was watching the battle from behind, was furious. He shouted: "Who told Hu Xietai to fight like this? No matter how fierce Minggou's firearms are, as long as they increase their speed, they will fight at most one, one, Two rounds. Go up and tell Hu Xietai, the dead soldiers will charge into the formation, if you don't enter, you will perish. We can't wait so much time to fight slowly!"

Abatai's Baiyala soldiers immediately galloped to the front line.After receiving the order, the Qing army immediately supplemented the three Niulu cavalry behind them, encrypted the formation of cavalry, began to give up infantry, and rushed directly to the phalanx of the Runing army.

Rows of cavalry of the Qing army began to mention high speed.Slowly, the forward momentum was unstoppable.In such a situation where thousands of horses are galloping, if anyone deliberately slows down the horse, the only end will be to be knocked over by the horse behind him, and then trampled into a pulp under the hoof of the horse.

There is no choice but to beat the horse and charge forward, facing this life-and-death struggle.Throughout the battlefield, along with the clatter of horseshoes, the shouts of the Qing cavalry gradually grew louder. (To be continued..)
