Chapter 349 Fierce Battle

On the evening of the third day of June in the fifth year of Tianqi, Wei Ming led an army of 13 and Huang Taiji led an army of 50 to face off at a distance of [-] miles from the border between Shanxi and Shaanxi. The war was about to break out.This battle, no matter who wins or loses, will be recorded in the history books.Because of this great war, it determined the direction of the Ming Dynasty and the later Jin dynasty.If Wei Ming wins, the [-] Mongolian Houjin coalition forces are in danger of being encircled and wiped out.From then on, within [-] years, Mongolia and Hou Jin would not be able to go south.And if Wei Ming loses, then the morale of the Ming Dynasty will fall again and again, and it will no longer be able to prevent Jin Dong from entering the capital after the Mongols. The Ming Dynasty may decline from this moment until it perishes.

"Qi Khan, Wei Ming has already set up camp on the soil slope, and put on a defensive posture." The spies came to report, Huang Taiji nodded, did not say anything, waved his hands, and let the spies go down.

"Khan, are we going to launch an attack immediately? Although this slope is not shaking, it will still be disadvantageous to us."

Facing the questions from his generals, Huang Taiji frowned and did not speak.He now regrets that he didn't kill Wei Ming when he was in Liaodong, and that's how Wei Ming is today.Otherwise, there is no one in Ming Dynasty who can organize a decent resistance to deal with the Mongol Houjin coalition forces.When the time comes to capture the capital in one go, the established strategic goal will be accomplished, and the Liaodong Army will be unable to support it alone. Sooner or later, the entire northern land will be eaten away by him.At that time, I can fulfill my father Khan's last wish and enter the Central Plains.As for the agreement with those conspirators in Daming, let it go to hell!Only what you hold in your hand is your own.Do you want to let yourself spit out the meat you eat in your mouth?What a joke!But now with Wei Ming, everything is uncertain.Let the situation of the whole world become confusing.In the end, Wei Ming became his confidant's serious trouble!

"Why don't you send a small group of cavalry to investigate first?" Some generals suggested.

"Wei Ming should not be underestimated. Sending a small number of troops up is just to deliver food, which will only increase the waste. If you don't fight, if you want to fight, you have to beat him down in one go. Khan, the last general is not talented, and he is willing to lead the army to lead the battle! "Mang Gurtai stood up and begged for orders.

"Okay, let you lead [-] cavalry to attack the enemy's formation!" Huang Taiji said expressionlessly.He thought the same as Mang Gurtai, if he wanted to fight, he had to fight with all his strength, Wei Ming was a conspirator and an insidious guy in Huang Taiji's heart.As long as he is allowed to seize the opportunity, there will be a way to make a comeback.The Liaodong game was already a dead game, but he was stunned to make it alive.Although Bian Weiming didn't do anything here, Huang Taiji was still willing to blame all of this on Weiming.

"Yes!" Mang Gurtai took the order, gathered his soldiers and horses, and rushed towards Wei Ming's camp.Even if the opponent is a tortoise shell, Mang Gurtai is confident in digging a hole in the tortoise shell!
"Here we come." Wei Ming said lightly.Ten thousand horses galloping does have a strong deterrent effect.But he had cards in his hand, so Wei Ming wasn't too nervous.I have done everything I can, and now I have to see if all my efforts are of any use.This is a race of life and death.Those who lose have nothing.Both Wei Ming and Huang Taiji understand this truth.

"Master Hou, what are we going to do?" Li Zicheng asked.Li Zicheng didn't dare to follow his own temper now.This battle is really too critical.

"The Musketeers were trained by Cao Wenzhao, so let him join. Ten thousand cavalry, no more, no less, just come to give us an experiment." Wei Ming said.

"Yes!" Li Zicheng took the order and passed on the order.Immediately, the flags in the barracks were waved, and Cao Wenzhao came out of the camp with five thousand muskets, divided into three rows, and waited quietly for the rear golden cavalry to throw themselves into the net.

The fast-moving rear golden cavalry was rushing forward desperately. Less than 300 meters away from Cao Wenzhao's formation, suddenly the soldiers rushing in front fell head down and jumped into the air from their horses, and then the horses were too fast. Fast, there is no time to stop.Immediately was trampled into meat paste.It is not known how many people will be lost in rushing from here, the Mangurtai flag was changed, and [-] cavalry scattered to both sides.

"General, don't you give the order to fire?" the lieutenant asked impatiently.Cao Wenzhao shook his head and said, "Wait a little longer." Opening fire now may bring a lot of damage to the opponent, but it has not succeeded in stopping the enemy.Although the fire system has been improved into a musket, its effective range is only two hundred steps, which is not much different from that of a bow and arrow.As long as the enemy army realizes the power of muskets and spreads out, it will be a lot of trouble at that time.If the cavalry wants to charge, it must be concentrated.And if the opponent concentrates, it will kill a lot on your own side.This seems to be an unsolvable proposition.Both parties know it, but they still have to follow the steps.

Manggurtai wanted to bypass the horse trap.The tripping pit is still easy to see from the outside.After going around in circles, the horse's speed didn't decrease much. Seeing that there was no tripping pit on a piece of flat ground, Mangurtai felt that although rushing up from here was farther than directly rushing up, and the impact was weaker, it was not the same. A lot can't be done.Didn't you see that the other party is still quiet now?It looks good, but what's the use?I guess I'm already scared out of my wits by now!
With a sound of "Boom", a galloping horse and cavalry suddenly soared into the air, and when it came down again, there was only blood rain and pieces of meat.

"Bomb!" Someone yelled, and Mangurtai's expression was not good.But he didn't want to just return without success.The Ming army is good at using firearms, this is something that everyone in the world knows.But in the previous wars, didn't the Ming army lose to the Houjin army one by one?Mang Gurtai believes that as long as there is a firm will and the spirit of not fearing death, the post-golden cavalry is invincible.The Ming army is no match at all!This time he is not going to make a detour, even if it takes his life to make a detour, he still has to make a way!
"Front arrow formation, follow me!" Mang Gurtai waved his hand, and the rear golden cavalry rushed up the gentle slope screaming.The Ming army has been driving for a day, but our side is waiting for work, as long as we rush up, as long as we rush up, we will win!Whether it is Mang Gurtai or Huang Taiji behind, they all think so.

It's really good that the front arrow array can use the least casualties to make a way.But it also exposed Mang Gurtai's flanks to Cao Wenzhao's eyes.Hit from the front, kill one or two, the bullets are blocked, it is not worthwhile.Hit from the flank, that's a cool thing!Seeing that Mang Gurtai had given the order to die, Cao Wenzhao smiled, waved the flag in his hand and said, "Okay, fire!"

"Bang bang bang!" Countless gunshots sounded, one row after another.After finishing the first row, I immediately squatted down to change the bullets, and the second row continued.The second row is finished, the third row is played, and the cycle repeats.Bullets hit the back golden cavalrymen one after another. Mang Gurtai watched them all fall off their horses and then be trampled into muddy flesh, their eyes bulging, as if they were about to jump out.Hearing the end of the three rows of gunfire, Mangurtai let out a sigh of relief.It's only three rows, and then they will stop for a while.And just for a moment, it was my chance!

"Guys, they've finished playing with the three axes, now it's up to us, come with me!" Perhaps Meng Ertai was too confident, so he rushed out first.Seeing this, the Houjin soldiers behind were highly motivated, and the speed of the attack suddenly accelerated a lot.And when the musket sound sounded again, Meng Ertai was dumbfounded, the Houjin cavalry was dumbfounded, and even Huang Taiji, who was watching the battle not far away, was also dumbfounded.How can it be so fast?

"Mang Gurtai? This is your own death, so don't blame us!" Cao Wenzhao took a musket from the bodyguard beside him, aimed it at Mang Gurtai, and followed the musketeers in the first row Shooting, Cao Wenzhao's musket also rang.A bullet passed through Mangurtai's huge head impartially, and Mangurtai couldn't believe it was true until he died.

How can it be so fast?It was a question he had been thinking about to the end of his life.
