Bringing Military Supplies to Ming Dynasty - Chapter 1689
This kind of company crossbow, which can shoot alone or seven shots simultaneously, emits their unique power once the distance is appropriate. One after another, they flew straight forward, like steel needles falling into the Nanming army, and there were four howls.
The continuous Seven Star crossbow can make a fan attack and inflict heavy damage on the oncoming opponent, because it depicts the Nanming archers in the first and second rows. These people wear thin clothes, only a few people have leather armor, and most people have no armor. What can they do to resist the sharp Seven Star crossbow attack?
Almost an arrow will directly fall. Fortunately, the soldier who failed to hit the death was also a scream. He threw his bow and arrow and began to roll all over the ground.
Just the Seven Star crossbow of the vanguard cavalry has brought a lot of damage, which has severely damaged the bow and arrow soldiers of the Nanming army, cleared a way to continue the attack, and cut off the threat that bows and arrows may bring to their own side.
Under the attack of the Seven Star crossbow, the shield hand of the third row of the Nanming army was presented to the cavalry. Although the shield soldiers have not fully stood in the team due to confusion, they also give people a feeling of great momentum because of the large number of people.
“Draw the sword! Split!” shouted dozens of sharp headed cavalry who rushed in front. Then the sharp saber was pulled out from the waist. People flew to the shield soldiers in front of them with the horse’s potential and speed.
The sabres used by the soldiers of the first army of the cavalry in the world are specially polished. Both sharpness and tenacity are several times stronger than ordinary swords. The alien cavalry and infantry who have fought with them call them treasure sabres.
When the sword came out of its scabbard and fell on the shield with its murderous intention and cold awn, under the sound of thin and splashing, one shield of ordinary material was split into two parts in an instant. The body shape of the soldiers of the Nanming army who should have been the safest hiding behind the shield was revealed.
The power of the sword greatly surprised the shield soldiers. When they saw that the weapons that could theoretically protect themselves were useless and their bodies were completely exposed under the enemy cavalry, their desire for survival made them shout again and then turn around and run away, completely ignoring that the long gunmen behind them had stretched out their long guns and waited for the scene when the cavalry rushed forward.
The shield is in the way and the spear is stretched out. This is one of the common means of infantry against cavalry. Especially when the Nanming army had an absolute number advantage, this kind of protection and counterattack could often cause a lot of damage to the incoming cavalry. As long as you can block the opponent’s momentum and stop the opponent’s speed, the advantage of cavalry will be greatly reduced, and then it’s time for infantry to counterattack.
Unfortunately, all this is just a theoretical statement. When the shield disappeared, the soldiers recoiled and directly hit the long gunmen behind them, so that the formation was chaotic. This so-called theory did not work at all. Before the formation of the long spearmen came into contact with the enemy’s horse, there was chaos, which greatly reduced their power. When the cavalry really charged, it was only a flash of knife light, and the gun heads of those long spears disappeared. The long spears were broken from the middle, and the counterattack of the long spearmen turned into nothing.
More than a hundred years later, the scene of JianNu cavalry attacking the enemy’s Ming army happened ahead of time. The difference is that one side of this attack is the five-star army. The difference is that the five-star army is more fierce than JianNu’s attack.
After the formations of archers, shield soldiers and spearmen were broken respectively, the defense of the Nanming army soon fell into paralysis. Countless Nanming troops began to run back recklessly. At this time, they had already forgotten their task. They only knew that they might have a chance to live by rushing back.
The development of events on the battlefield is completely different from what I imagined. It is not who has more people who can win. If this is the case, then countries do not have to fight, just directly develop their population.
Although there are only 20000 cavalry of the five-star army, they are all very elite veterans. Even the newly added soldiers are only selected from the best of other troops. They are all masters who have seen blood and killed people. Compared with the Nanming army, which is full of recruits, many people have not even killed chickens, which is simply incomparable.
As soon as the Seven Star crossbow came out, it disrupted the deployment of the Nanming army. Next, when people rushed into the already chaotic Nanming army with horse potential and knife speed, the killing began.
Although these are Han people and the cornerstone of the development of the Yang system in the future, in order to win a great victory and completely beat down the Nanming court, we can only bear the pain to do it now, so as to keep more Han people.
Blood splashes and human life is like grass.
The battlefield has always been cruel. It’s not a game where you die and I die. If anyone has a good heart, he will only die himself. When everyone understands this truth, it’s just killing.
After the tips of the arrows were inserted into the Nanming army, they were like a large meat grinder. However, all the Nanming soldiers who blocked the front of the five-star cavalry or dodged slower, their heads soared up and their limbs left their bodies, and the bloody gas poured into the noses of the recruits of the Nanming army everywhere.
“Oh.”
“Wow, vomit!”
The recruits of the Nanming army who had never experienced such battles just felt bouts of nausea, and then had to squat on the ground. Especially when the horses of the five-star army rushed past and trampled the fallen bodies like mud, the visual impact made the recruits of Nanming unable to control their bodies. They didn’t even have the strength to dance knives and guns, except vomit or vomit.
“Stand up, don’t squat down, don’t put down your weapons.” He Ke watched the war develop so far, and the voice of anger roared loudly. Unfortunately, on the chaotic battlefield, under the sound of horse hoofs, his cry was soon drowned and could not turn a spray.
“General, let’s withdraw too. We can’t stop it.” a private soldier came to Hoek. After saying such a word, he directly set up Hoek who was still scolding and retreated to the rear of the army. This is just a 60000 man formation. Behind them, there is a 60000 man formation standing there intact. As long as we get together with them again, we don’t worry about the opportunity of counterattack.
Hoek retreated, and this scene was discovered by some recruits. At present, their last resistance will no longer exists. One by one, they either fled around, or simply threw their weapons, knelt down on the ground and chose to surrender.
Defeat like a mountain!
Even if 60000 pigs were captured by 25000 cavalry, it would take at least a few days. But now, under the iron hoof of the five-star cavalry, 60000 infantry failed to hold on for half an hour, and they were completely defeated.
On the battlefield, the fighting will of the recruits in the Southern Ming Dynasty was rapidly disintegrating. This scene was unexpected for Temur and Liu Zao, who were leading the soldiers. Originally thought the other side had so many troops, but now it seems that the victory came too suddenly.
This is a good thing. There is no need to order. The next five-star cavalry will catch up with him as he retreats. In front of them, they also threatened countless Nanming new army. These people did not choose to surrender at the first time, but wanted to escape back to their own camp.
Because they chose to escape, their existence greatly threatened the square of the last 60000 people. When he saw the cavalry of the five-star army coming and there were more of his own robes before he saw the cavalry, the commander was at a loss. He didn’t even dare to order the release of the bow and arrow, because it was very possible that the bow and arrow hit not the enemy, but his own infantry soldiers.
Hoek is also running in the defeated army. He breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that the last 60000 people did not choose to cast bows and arrows. Now he is among the defeated soldiers. If he shoots an arrow, won’t he die himself? He only thinks about one thing now, that is to escape and escape to the rear. These five-star cavalry are too beast and their combat power is too fierce. He won’t fight them in the future. He’d better go back and guard Nanchang house.
He Ke, who was only running for his life, even forgot to let the army ambushed on both sides of the official road attack. Or even if he remembered now, he had no way to inform them.
It was a somewhat dramatic rout, and the development of the war was beyond everyone’s expectation. Facts have also proved that the combat effectiveness of the new army in the Southern Ming Dynasty can be described not only as mediocre, but even as very bad.
300000 infantry, facing the impact of 20000 cavalry, don’t mention the ability to fight back, but they can’t even make basic obstacles. Pointing to such an army can keep the Nanming court, I’m afraid no one will have confidence.
General Temur and General Liu duo are still charging with a large army, rushing over and over again. In front of them are the retreating Nanming rout soldiers, including the rear 60000 people square. After seeing that the front had been defeated and fled, and seeing the bravery of the five-star cavalry and the flying heads of the five-star army from time to time on the battlefield, the delayed 60000 recruits of the Southern Ming Dynasty also began to flee.
In order to escape faster, some directly threw their weapons to the ground, but kept running and launched a fierce rush towards Nanchang mansion 60 miles behind them.
Where the cavalry of the five-star army passed, they were either dead bodies with blood, captured soldiers kneeling on the ground, or Nanming recruits running everywhere. Without any resistance, the two teachers had greater ambitions.
“Nanchang mansion!” almost at the same time, Temur and Liu snatched out their voices. Then there was a burst of laughter. Next, 20000 cavalry with few casualties gave up these pursuers and went straight to Nanchang mansion 60 miles away.
