Brocade clothing as the country

Chapter 1013 Trapped Beast
With three watchtowers, a high place to watch and watch, plus the rangers moving around, on such a flat terrain, there are almost no dead spots around the Eastern Expeditionary Army.

At the beginning, the enemy pushed the scull cart forward, and the artillery began to bombard. Although the lookout post on the watchtower knew that he had a heavy responsibility, he was still attracted by the situation on the battlefield.

The pawns below looked at the battlefield, but it was full of gunpowder, and they had to be careful. However, they looked down from the watchtower, and it seemed a different feeling. They didn't have any worries in their hearts, and their own side had the upper hand. The big plays are a hundred times more exciting.

The things you can see from the high ground are much more comprehensive. The distance between the two sides is not far, so you can clearly see the state of the cavalry on the two wings. When you see that there are donkeys and cows inside, the lookout post knows something is wrong.

Beyond the side wall are various Mongolian tribes and Jurchen villages living together. There is no shortage of cattle and horses, but there are very few donkeys, because such animals with insufficient animal strength are not worth using.

Although it is wartime right now, the Jianzhou Army will never be so nervous that even cattle and donkeys are requisitioned. These things have no effect on the battlefield and cannot be charged at all. There must be something strange. The lookout post Immediately passed the news to Wang Tong's side.

Speaking of it, Wang Tong discovered the anomaly earlier than the people above, but the situation discovered by the watchtower on the left of the army is the most important.
"Commander, the enemy has at least [-] cavalry, and they are rapidly approaching the left flank of our army!"

After the cavalry reported, all the people around Wang Tong became nervous. Wang Tong also looked serious, but he immediately smiled and said:
"This is the key point of the enemy's arrangement, and it is finally exposed!"

The current trend on the battlefield is that the artillery is overwhelmingly massacring, but in fact the opponent's main formation has not been damaged, and the infantry of the four regiments of the Tiger's Might Army has been restrained, and more than half of the firecrackers are still in the rear. , changing the formation now is equivalent to giving the enemy an opportunity to take advantage of.

People are used to using their right hands, and a series of habits brought about by this make the right wing of the team a relatively solid and stable place, and it is the initiation of all actions. Whether it is the East or the West, the generals commanding operations are not in the middle of the army. They are all on the right side or even the right end, and the artillery arrays are also arranged on the right side.

This terrain is already about to enter the mountainous area. Although the surrounding area is flat, there are also terrains such as hills and hills, which can hide the actions of the cavalry.

It is a good strategy to use infantry and seemingly bluffing scull carts to attract the army, and use cavalry to detour to the left flank to launch an attack, catching them unawares by surprise.

"It's no wonder that the Thieves Chief can make such a career. He does have his skills, but he was born at an untimely time!"

Wang Tong said something, and then sent an order:
"The four regiments in the front row move thirty steps forward. All cavalry are not allowed to move rashly. They guard the artillery array and the left flank of the army. Li Hutou stays here to command. The commander-in-chief goes to the left flank to fight. Zhang Wu follows with five three-jin cannons!"

His words contained many orders, and the messengers understood each other, and hurried over on horseback to deliver the order, while Wang Tong rode his horse and rushed to the left flank with his personal guards.

The cavalry of the Jianzhou Army had already appeared on the left flank of the army. They turned around to this position, and they could not charge directly while running. They had to organize their troops.

"The third and fifth regiments arrange horizontal formations to the left, and the reserve firecrackers in the front line go to the front line on the right wing!"

Wang Tong rode on the horse and gave orders loudly, and the sound of drums and orders immediately followed. The third and fifth regiments in the rear team simply adjusted their direction and did not require much change in formation. The only thing that required large-scale adjustments The most important ones are the firecrackers, and now there are more than two thousand firecrackers on the left wing of the army.

The formation exercises are carried out every day, the generals are used as the reference point, and the non-commissioned officers are used as the line. The formation is quickly determined, and what the soldiers have to do is to fill in this surface.

"The third regiment of spearmen dispatched two battalions, and squatted in front of the firecracker firing line to refuse horses!!"

Wang Tong gave another order, which made the formation a little chaotic, but the third regiment had a very high proportion of veterans, so there was no disturbance in the action.

They are lining up here, and the cavalry of the Jianzhou Army also know that the enemy's position has not stabilized, so they must seize the time to attack, otherwise it will be a big trouble.

The spearmen were still running to the front line, and the cavalry of the Jianzhou Army had already moved. Wang Tong shouted to Li Tao:
"Use the firecrackers to completely defeat the enemy cavalry, and the spearmen to support them!"

Li Tao loudly agreed, yes, the formation of firecrackers is about to take shape, the orders of the generals and non-commissioned officers come one after another, but the howls of the Jurchens on the opposite side are even louder, they don't care about any horse power, and they don't care whether their mounts can Bear, frantically whip and drive the horse with spurs.

The gunfire soldiers in the first row could even see blood dripping from the abdomen of the Jianzhou Jurchen cavalry mounts. This was all caused by the beating of the spurs.

As they got closer, the officers and non-commissioned officers in the firecracker line calmed down, and the next thing to do was to shoot when the enemy entered the range.

The gunfire soldiers were actually calmer than in previous battles, because there were two lines of half-kneeling and half-squatting spearmen in front of them covering them, and they fired more calmly.

"Marshal, the Tartar infantry who are facing us are starting to charge!"

The news from Wanglou should be passed on to Wang Tong at any time.

***************
Right in front of Cai Cai's army, there were only a few scull carts standing there alone, the people pushing behind had disappeared, and the artillery also temporarily stopped roaring.

This time it was the residents of the Jurchen village who fought the front line of the Jianzhou army. The bombardment of the artillery just now and the casualties of their companions had scared them out of their courage. No one dared to move forward, but the cavalry of the Jianzhou army Although there are not many, it is enough to gather and take care of these cannon fodder. After the encounter just now, there was no large-scale rout except for casualties.

The Jianzhou soldiers also knew the news that their own cavalry appeared on the flank. Whether it was the front or the left flank, if they wanted to have an effect on the attack of the Ming army, they had to move forward bravely. big.

The terrified peasants were driven out again. They had oak poles in their hands. One end was sharpened. They may have been roasted on the fire, or they may have been dipped in feces. Looking at the compendium, this thing really wants to penetrate It is also mortal.

The sound of drums, yelling and crying could be heard even from such a long distance, but Li Hutou rearranged the firecrackers on both sides of the formation to the front line, since the enemy Without the scull cart as a cover, the killing of the firecrackers will definitely be very effective.

However, more than half of the firecrackers were transferred to the left wing, and the front seemed a little thin, but it was enough, and there were artillery.

"Artillerymen don't have to rush to fire, wait for the enemy to pass the center line before firing, so that the effective damage will be greater!"

Li Hutou said, the artillerymen under the banner immediately went back to make arrangements. The artillery had stopped for a while. After the artillerymen finished loading, they wiped the cannon body with a cloth soaked in cold water. Although the quality is good, the barrel heats up after a few shots. You have to leave as much margin as possible on the battlefield, so whenever you have spare time, you can manually cool down the barrel and make adjustments as much as possible.

The infantry of the Jianzhou Army rushed forward noisily. Their number may not be much larger than the four regiments in front of them, but it seems that they are several times more, because the formation of the Huwei Army is strict, and they talk No queue.

But Li Hutou will not take it lightly. The erected watchtower can see too much information that cannot be observed on the flat ground. For example, it has been notified to him. It is much stricter and thicker, and the Jianzhou Army has planned very well.

However, such a plan is not worth mentioning in front of the artillery. The infantry array of the Jianzhou Army was launched earlier than the cavalry on the left wing. When they crossed the center line, the cavalry on the other side had just started.

Crossing the center line is also the signal for the artillery to fire. The three-pound and six-pound cannons left here fired a volley. The ball, and then the cannonball hit the ground, and the fairly solid ground made the cannonball bounce again. The momentum did not weaken much and it flew through the crowd again. Bloody roads were waded out, but the queue was still moving forward.

The pace of the infantry of the Jianzhou Army even accelerated. They had also seen the sharpness of the artillery of the Ming Army. In their hearts, as long as they ran over this distance and rushed to the opponent's formation, the artillery would definitely stop firing. The pawns are also very strong, but at this time, after all, it is a face-to-face fight, and there is no need to endure this hellish scene on the road.

The artillery cannons kept ringing. In order to let the cannon fodder stand in front, the Jianzhou Army could not spread out too widely. Such a dense formation could allow the artillery to cause greater damage.

The civilian husband who was rushing in front couldn't control it anymore, he couldn't go backwards, he could run to the sides, he could run as far as he could, he might die halfway, but the current situation is really unbearable go down
The collapse of the cannon fodder in front made the Jianzhou Army team behind the queue even faster. They fought desperately, but their morale was still high. They also knew that the longer they persisted, the greater the chance of victory. The soldiers of the state army are all ruined and have nowhere to go, so they will fight if they fight.

The gunfire finally stopped, and the Jianzhou Army infantry who were running desperately there even slowed down all of a sudden. The disappearance of the thunder-like shelling made everyone relax unconsciously, and hand-to-hand combat was in sight.

They have already entered the firing range of the firecrackers. The firecrackers of the Huwei army are not as powerful as artillery, but they can kill people.
