After learning that the Manchu Tatars had dispatched troops, the commander of the [-]st Cavalry Division immediately ordered the scout cavalry under his command to scout around, and at the same time informed the entire army to prepare for battle.
He didn't have to wait long, and soon a scout came to report, and the army of the Manchu Tartars stood in front of him.
As the distance approached, he saw the mighty cavalry, blocking the front, and was ready to charge the cavalry.
The commander of the first cavalry division, naturally, would not have sent [-] cavalry under his command to charge at such a time.
[-] to [-]! Even if he had full confidence in the combat effectiveness of his cavalry divisions, he would not dare to make such preparations for death.
After all, in the struggle between cavalry and cavalry, the competition is still the impact.
In terms of weapons and equipment, the cavalry division of Dayan is not much stronger than the cavalry of the Manchu Tartars.
Basically, it is equipped with a saber and leather armor! After all, the biggest role of the cavalry is long-distance raids, and the endurance of the horse needs to be considered.
Each additional weight will shorten the time for the horses to attack and charge a lot.
The number of cavalry is far less than the opponent's, which does not mean that the commander of the [-]st Cavalry Division has nothing to do.
He is leading twenty guards! Hundreds of thousands of infantry equipped with muskets and artillery! "Let's inform you, form a formation to resist the cavalry charge, and activate the highest level of combat readiness!"
Immediately calmly ordered to go down.
Soon all the garrisoners began to move, and all the artillery pieces were pulled down from the four-wheeled carriage to establish front-line artillery positions.
And at the fastest speed, the carriages were formed into a carriage formation as the first line of defense.
On the Great Plains, carriages that transport supplies and form battle formations are the most convenient and efficient line of defense tools.
Put the carriages in front of one block, and the carriages are tied to each other and fastened firmly to block the perimeter of the army, which can block the charge of many cavalry.
Afterwards, the sword and shield soldiers stepped forward one after another, standing tall steel shields in front, and put down the back brackets as supporting feet.
Once the shield has a support point, then there is no need for the sword and shield soldiers to use their bodies to withstand the impact of the cavalry.
These shields alone can withstand the charge of most cavalry.
And the spearmen, one after another, passed the spears in their hands through the gaps in the shields, and formed a forest of steel spears at the fastest speed.
Seen from a distance! For the first time, the Great Yan Army seemed to be a giant hedgehog surrounded by countless steel, giving people a feeling of being unable to swallow.
Fully equipped and well-trained, they formed a battle formation against cavalry charges immediately.
The speed is terrifying! The Manqing Tartars on the opposite side were startled.
In a place behind the Manchu army of Tartars, Dorgon and other princes and ministers of the Manchu Qing, riding on horses, looked at the Great Yan Army in the distance.
The moment the Great Yan Army discovered them, he immediately sped up a large formation like a hedgehog, and even used a horse-drawn carriage to form a peripheral line of defense, he couldn't help but sigh.
He hadn't seen the muskets and artillery that the Great Yan Army had swayed the world.
But Dayan Army's well-trained, as well as fearful execution and organizational strength, let him see.
Generally, a well-trained, disciplined and powerful army will never be inferior in combat effectiveness. This is the standard of a strong army.
Although the Eight Banners of the Manchu Tartars were not well-trained and disciplined at all.
But Dorgon has fought for so many years, and he is still very knowledgeable about it.
Not only Dorgon was frightened by this scene, the Manchu princes and ministers around him also took a breath of air and were shocked.
Up.
"Damn, the speed of this Great Flame Army is too fast, right? In the blink of an eye, not only has the carriage defense line been formed, but it has also formed a defensive battle formation!"
"Fast, too fast! With this speed and efficiency, we have no way to launch a surprise attack on them, we can't make a sneak attack!! The reaction speed is too fast!"
"Not only is it fast, they are also too well prepared. Not only do they have a large number of carriages, but they also have a large amount of materials and a very heavy carriage.
They also have shields and spears to defend against cavalry charges!!"
"This Great Flame Army, don't mess with it!! If we force the cavalry to charge, the casualties will definitely not be small, this must be a tough battle!"
"Not only this, they also have a large number of muskets and artillery, and our cavalry has not rushed up, there will be a large number of casualties!!"
"Boneless, absolutely boneheaded!!"
"I heard that this is only the guard of Dayan, a second-line unit in the Dayan army, specially used for defending the city!"
"The garrison is so strong, how strong are the elites they are responsible for attacking!"
"Unimaginable! However, the Dashun Army, which has been destroyed by hundreds of thousands, is the end!"
""
The princes and ministers talked a lot, and they were all shocked by the Great Yan Army, and they began to be a little afraid, and even avoided the battle.
In the face of this kind of hard bone that is not easy to mess with at first sight, they really don't have much mood to chew on it.
This kind of thinking is quite normal among the Manchu Tartars.
After all, the Eight Banners soldiers of the Manchu Qing Dynasty are the private soldiers of each banner owner, and each banner owner and the generals of the Manchu Qing Tartars have the idea of preserving their own strength.
Bully the soft and fear the hard, and take advantage of it.
It's in their bones! They're good at fighting tailwinds, and they love it.
But fighting against the wind, there is no one who is not afraid of fear.
Among them, the flag owners of the Mongolian Eight Banners are the most obvious.
For this kind of infantry that forms a vehicle formation and defends layer by layer, they are the most troublesome and the enemy that they don't like to chew on.
At a glance from a distance, they lose the desire to attack.
Dorgon also had a headache looking at it. The whole army did not want to bite the bullet, and even he was not willing to let his army suffer too many casualties.
In the face of the Great Flame Army, who was defending with all his strength, Dorgon didn't know what to do for a while.
It's like facing a hedgehog, with nowhere to speak! Dorgon, who was uncertain, did not order the cavalry to charge in the end, but said, "Watch them and take the opportunity to raid!"
"Master, Man Qing Tartars dare not charge!!"
"They were all frightened by our battle, and they didn't dare to approach!"
"Too cowardly these tarts!"
"It's all bullying and fearing the hard way!!"
""
The various guard commanders and envoys saw that the cavalry of the Manchu Tartars had not yet launched their charge, but turned their horses and retreated one by one, showing disappointment, and said with a look of contempt.
The commander of the [-]st Cavalry Division smiled slightly: "Manqing Tartars can't afford it, so bullying the soft and fearing the hard is normal!"
"Ignore them, let's keep the formation, move forward step by step, and go to Fengrun!!"
"Hey, we're not in a hurry at all, anyway, the main force of the Manchu Tartars was dragged here by us, and it doesn't matter that they arrive at Fengrun sooner or later!"
"On the contrary, it is these Tartars who are anxious. Seeing that we are approaching Fengrun City, they will definitely be anxious!!"
"They're not like us, but they want to kill us all!"
"As long as they can't kill us, they lose strategically!"
Chapter [-] Dorgon has a headache
At the command of the commander of the [-]st Cavalry Division, the whole army took the carriage front as the outer position, and the sword and shield soldiers raised their shields one after another, and surrounded the musketeers, cavalry, artillery and farmers.
The army continued to advance at a slow speed towards the abundance of the north.
Although the marching speed is very slow, it is advancing after all.
In addition, Fengrun is not far from Rongcheng, even if it is moving at a slow speed, it will come one day.
As time went by, the Great Yan Army was getting closer and closer to Fengrun, while the Manchu Qing Tartar Army was dragged along, and the situation became more and more passive to them.
This change made the princes, princes and ministers of the Manchu Tartars begin to panic and even feel overwhelmed.
They have never fought such a passive battle! Obviously the enemy was surrounded by them, but they did not dare to fight hard because of various fears and concerns, and could only watch the enemy swaggeringly under their eyes, step by step. Approach to Fengrun City.
And if the enemy army entered Fengrun City, the Dashun defenders who had lost their fighting spirit long ago and had no fighting spirit in Fengrun City would probably open the door and surrender immediately.
And once the Dayan Army has captured Fengrun City, then their massive deployment of troops this time will be in vain.
Not only that, but it also meant that they had suffered heavy losses in strategy and suffered a fiasco! Because once the Great Yan Army captured Fengrun City, the shackles of the Great Yan Army on their necks would be even tighter.
Once even Zunhua behind Fengrun City was captured by the Great Yan Army, they were truly imprisoned in Yongping Prefecture! At that time, it would be no different from a dog being imprisoned in a dog cage.
This was unbearable for all the princes and ministers of the Manchu and Qing Tatars.
It was also unbearable for Dorgon.
"No, if it goes on like this, let's watch them enter Fengrun City, then we will fail!"
"It can't go on like this!"
"A charge must be launched!"
Duo said in a cold voice, his expression became: extremely dignified.
The princes and ministers around him both agreed and disagreed.
"Prince Regent, we all understand the truth, but the Great Yan Army and the others have set up a hedgehog formation, so that we have nowhere to talk!! Once a forcible attack is launched, the casualties will be huge!!"
"Yes, yes, Prince Regent, this Great Flame Army is not easy to deal with! It is hard to say whether we can pay a great price to rush into their formation and destroy them completely!"
"That's right, just think about it! There are artillery bombardments in the front, and muskets in the back. Just approaching their hedgehog formation will cost a lot of casualties! The carriage formation and the shield and spear formation in the back will cost a lot of money. The price! All this before and after, just to get into their ranks, we have to pay an unimaginable price!"
"Yes, yes, how can we have so many people die! Unless, let the Mongolian Eight Banners go up!!"
"It's a good idea. Let the Mongolian Eight Banners and the others carry artillery and bullets for us. This way, it will definitely reduce our large number of casualties!!"
"That's right, let Meng Baqi die and give it to me!"
""
Listening to the words of these princes and ministers, Dorgon's face turned black, and what these princes and ministers said was getting more and more extreme! Once their words spread, it would not cause mutiny among the Mongolian Eight Banners! Although the Mongolian Eight Banners could not be compared with their Manchu people, But it also belongs to the ally level, belongs to equality, not their slaves.
Moreover, the Manchu Qing did not dare to regard the Mongolian Eight Banners as slaves! The people of the Mongolian Eight Banners were not fools, their ancestors had greatly surpassed them.
What kind of artillery and gun formation, they have seen it a hundred or two hundred years ago, and they have suffered enough.
