Originally, Lin Dan Khan planned to launch a surprise attack when the Ming army was not yet firmly established, but Xiong Tingbi fought steadily and did not give Lin Dan Khan a chance. Seeing that the sneak attack failed, Lin Dan Khan was also out of men and horses, and had to camp thirty miles away from Xiong Tingbi's army. !
The two sides rested for a day with a tacit understanding, and then opened their battle array at the Ergun River Pan. The Ming army mainly consisted of 300,000 infantrymen, 50,000 cavalry guarding the wings, and 200,000 Mongolian cavalry on the opposite side!
Xiong Tingbi's arrangement here is very simple. The 200,000 Imperial Alliance troops are divided into 20 square formations in front, 50,000 frontier troops and 50,000 Guards troops fill the gaps left by the Imperial Alliance troops, and the cavalry cruises among the infantry. The left and right sides of the phalanx prevent the Mongolian cavalry from charging into the formation from the flanks!
The layout of the Mongolian cavalry was simpler. Two hundred thousand people were divided into ten cavalry phalanxes. Two phalanxes stayed with Lin Dan Khan as reserves, intending to deliver a fatal blow to the Ming army at the critical moment. The other eight phalanxes were ready to attack. The Ming army launched an attack. Their purpose was very simple, which was to penetrate the Ming army's formation as quickly as possible!
According to traditional knowledge, the infantry phalanx will collapse as soon as it is penetrated, and the collapsed infantry will be like rabbits running around in front of the cavalry, harvesting whatever they want!
In front of 200,000 Mongolian cavalry, Lin Dan Khan wore armor, brandished a gem-encrusted scimitar and shouted: "Our ancestors were once invincible. The Han people opposite were slaves of the Mongols. Now we want to restore the glory of our ancestors. Trample the Han people under your feet again and kill them!"
"kill!"
The 200,000-strong army burst out with a shocking roar, urging their war horses to rush towards the Ming army's formation like thunder!
Xiong Tingbi, who was sitting firmly in the middle army, saw this scene and couldn't help showing a contemptuous smile on his face: "Order the tiger to squat and prepare the artillery. The enemy is close to 200 steps and fire the artillery!"
As the order flag was waved, the two thousand steel tiger squatting cannons behind the Imperial Alliance Army's formation were loaded with ammunition, measured the distance, and were waiting for the commander's order to destroy the enemy on the opposite side. Sex strikes!
¡ª¡ª
The horses¡¯ hooves stepped on the ground, making a silent roar. The Mongolian cavalry gradually accelerated. They wanted to use the fastest horse speed to attack the Ming army¡¯s battle formation. They believed that no one could stop this speed!
The pikemen of the Royal Association Army at the front of the queue have erected five rows of three-foot-long horse-repelling spears. The eyes of these Japanese warriors from distant island countries flashed with excitement!
They don¡¯t care whether they win or not!
They simply want to die in battle!
Because as long as they die in battle, their families can live a good life!
"Two hundred steps! Let go!"
Accompanied by the roar of artillery, two thousand gunpowder packets were thrown out, and then landed among the Mongolian cavalry!
Boom¡ª¡ª
Boom¡ª¡ª
Boom¡ª¡ª
With the explosion like exploding beans, waves of blood broke out among the densely packed Mongolian cavalry. Countless Mongolian cavalry were knocked off their horses and then trampled to pieces by their comrades!
Seeing such a scene, Lin Danhan, who was holding the battle at the back, had a look of panic on his face. He once again thought of the scene of fighting the Ming army. Sharp firearms were killing people, and his army collapsed in the continuous roar!
But this time, that kind of scene obviously didn¡¯t happen. After all, the charge of the 200,000-strong army was not so easily blocked. Although it was intercepted by the Ming army¡¯s artillery, the Mongolian cavalry still rushed in front of the Ming army¡¯s battle formation!
Before approaching the Ming army¡¯s battle formation, the Mongolian cavalry in the front row raised their heavy shields. This was their experience gained from fighting the Ming army!
When facing the Ming Army¡¯s firearms, cavalry shooting has lost its power. The best way is to use a shield to resist the Ming Army¡¯s bullets. Only in this way can you have a chance to rush into the Ming Army¡¯s battle formation!
Bang¡ª¡ª
Bang¡ª¡ª
Bang¡ª¡ª
Fifty steps away from the battle formation, the dull sound of muskets sounded, and raindrops of lead bullets swept over the charging Mongolian cavalry!
Although the shields in their hands played a certain role, more Mongolian cavalry were hit. They screamed and fell off their horses, and were trampled by countless horse hooves!
"The time has come to be loyal to His Majesty the Emperor, you all, fight bravely to defeat the enemy! On board!"
Seeing the dark cavalry rushing over, the pikemen in the front row could not conceal their excitement. The commanders holding the formation drew their swords and roared loudly, as if what was rushing over was not the deadly cavalry, but their own brides!
"Onboard! Onboard! Onboard!"
The pikemen facing the cavalry attack simultaneously issued a loudRoar, that momentum can change the color of heaven and earth!
Boom¡ª¡ª
As if the heavens and the earth were closing together, the surging cavalry crashed into the forest of spears. In an instant, the neighing of the war horses and the shrill screams were mixed together, and a huge wave of blood surged at the junction of the two armies!
The wave-like Mongolian cavalry was stagnated, and was actually held back. No one of the musketeers behind the pikemen looked at their miserable comrades, and no one thought about what kind of situation they would face. They were just machines. Repeating the actions of loading and shooting, he kept harvesting the lives of the Mongolian cavalry!
The frontier troops behind the Imperial Alliance Army's battle formation also ushered in the Mongolian cavalry rushing through the gaps in the Imperial Alliance Army's battle formation. However, compared with the Imperial Alliance Army's battle formation, the Mongolian cavalry they faced had lost most of their horses. speed!
"Ready! Release!"
When the Mongolian cavalry was only a hundred steps away from the battle formation, the musketeers of the frontier army started shooting. The dense rain of bullets directly flattened the conical arrows of the Mongolian cavalry!
At the same time, the Guards deployed on the flanks of the frontier army also started their own performance. The Mini rifle showed perfect lethality at a distance of 150 steps, and the steel Tiger Crouching Cannon also showed its own performance. The power it deserves!
The Mongolian cavalry who rushed through the battle formation of the Imperial Alliance Army discovered at this time that they were not the lucky ones, but a group of out-and-out unlucky ones, because the Mongolian cavalry who were blocked by the Imperial Alliance Army still had a chance to escape. They were surrounded!
Amidst the roar of muskets, countless Mongolian cavalry were swept off their horses. Their corpses instantly covered the land. The blood turned the green grass into a terrifying dark green!
Seeing that his cavalry could not quickly break through the Ming army's blockade, Lin Danhan had to order a retreat, because the cavalry was obviously the loser in such a stalemate, especially when the opponent was an army that had popularized firearms!
Woo¡ª¡ª
The horn of retreat sounded, and the Mongolian cavalry scrambled to turn their horses¡¯ heads, trying to leave this hellish place!
When the Mongolian cavalry retreated, at least 30,000 corpses were left on the battlefield. Most of them belonged to the Mongolian cavalry, and a small number belonged to the Ming army. However, it was obvious that the Ming army was not intimidated by such losses. !
On the contrary, the Imperial Army, which had suffered the most losses, was quickly resuming its formation. They piled the corpses of their enemies or companions in front of the formation, picked up the still-usable horse-repelling rifles, and placed them on the pile of corpses to prepare for the next wave of Mongolian cavalry attacks!
The Mongolian cavalry who left the battlefield looked panicked. They really couldn't understand how the Ming army could block their charge and cause such tragic damage to their own side!
Lin Danhan's face was already a little pale. He could clearly feel the heavy breathing of the Mongolian nobles around him, and the sharp and sinister eyes swept across his back, making him feel uncomfortable all over!
However, the dignity of being the Great Khan of Mongolia made Lin Dan Khan tightly hold the reins of the horse in his hands, keep his tall figure, and ordered: "Tell the warriors, charge again, as long as you can break through the Ming army's battle formation. It¡¯s time for them to go to the Central Plains to hunt those cowardly Han people!¡±
Lin Dan Khan¡¯s order was quickly passed on, but many rangers appeared among the Mongolian cavalry and rushed towards the formation. Lin Dan Khan knew that these were the men of those Mongolian nobles, and they came to ask for instructions from their master!
Lin Dan Khan could only pretend not to see this. It was not until all the Mongolian nobles agreed to Lin Dan Khan's order that the Mongolian cavalry slowly mobilized their horses and rushed towards the Ming army again! (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
