Chapter 685 Defeat the Qing Army
The Qing cavalry was defeated by the powerful firepower of the Wu and Yue army. After the cavalry failed to attack, they pulled their horses and retreated one after another.
"Shoot!" Chen Youlong roared loudly.
The musketeer who squatted down and used a bayonet as a spear, immediately got up, lifted the musket and it was a shocking volley.
Under the smoke of gunpowder, the Qing cavalry collapsed like a retreating tide. The Qing soldiers who pulled their horses and retreated were shot behind their backs and were shot off their horses.
Oboi was both heartbroken and brave. Under the powerful firepower of the Wu Yue army, his personal courage was not worth mentioning.
In a panic, under the banner of the Wu Yue Army in Yulinpu, Xie Qian shouted loudly, "The left and right armies, attack!"
Xie Qian knew that after the Qing army was attacked after crossing the river, he would definitely not retreat directly, but instead relying on the large number of cavalry to launch an attack, attempting to destroy the Wu and Yue army.
At this time, the Wu Yue army, which was pressing forward, needed to withstand the attack of the Qing army, and the Wu Yue army on both wings would take advantage of the opportunity to attack and rush out directly to the south bank, burn down the floating bridge, block the Qing army on the north bank, surround the enemy crossing the river, and annihilate the Qing army crossing the river.
"Kill the Tartars!" The shouts of killing sounded everywhere in the mountains.
As Obai was galloping, he suddenly turned his head and saw more than ten thousand people fighting on both sides.
The first of both wings were more than a thousand cavalrymen. Li Yuanyin was sprinting in front of him, and the cavalry behind him were covered with a plate armor on his chest, wearing a shiny iron helmet and waving a sabre. The cavalry in front was still holding a spear more than three meters long.
After Zhao Ming expanded his army, he really wanted to have a powerful cavalry so that he could adopt the tactics of cannon bombardment and cavalry raids.
The artillery of the Wuyue Army was powerful, and under the shelling, there was no army and could maintain a complete formation.
At that time, the enemy's formation was chaotic and the cavalry roared out, and the rest was just to harvest the heads.
If this tactic of artillery and cavalry can be realized, the Wu Yue army will definitely sweep the world.
However, now the Wu and Yue army have few cavalry, otherwise the enemy would have been bombarded with one round of artillery, and then the cavalry charged, and in one round, they had already driven the Qing army into the river.
At this time, more than a thousand cavalrymen from the Jiangbei wings were running in front, and countless soldiers in the rear were charging with spears, Japanese swords and shields.
These soldiers and horses are different from the Wu Yue army. Most of them are wearing iron armor with high defense and cold weapons. They are mercenaries in Jiangbei, as well as Japanese soldiers and prisoners of Baifan soldiers.
Seeing this, Obai was shocked and felt like he was surrounded.
At this time, Chen Youlong, in front of him, twitched his command knife, pointed forward, and roared with great enthusiasm, "Charge forward and drive the Tartars into the Qingshui River!"
The Wu Yue soldiers on the front picked up the muskets and immediately took neat steps and pushed forward. They raised the muskets from time to time to harvest the backward Qing army. They used bayonets to stab the injured Qing army to death.
Before the war started, Xie Qian issued an order, trying not to capture prisoners, and directly eliminate them to avoid close combat and cause losses.
Oboi heard the shouts from the left and right wings, and heard the neat steps behind him. In a panic, he ran away and roared, "Hurry, retreat to the north shore!"
The Wu and Yue army came from three directions, and the Qing cavalry was compressed towards the river beach, and tens of thousands of people were crowded at the bridge head of the floating bridge, but the bridge was blocked by Mongolian cavalry.
Yue Le ordered that the Mongolian cavalry cross the river to reinforce, in order to stabilize the position on the south bank, but he did not want Oboi's charge to be defeated so quickly.
At this time, the floating bridge was covered with Mongolian cavalry crossing the bridge, blocking the retreat of the Manzhou soldiers, and the cavalry squeezed into a regiment.
Seeing this, Yue Le was shocked and hurriedly ordered, "Hurry, retreat!"
Behind Yulinpu, the Wu Yue army artillery formation and hundreds of heavy artillery have been loaded, and this time all artillery are loaded with flowering bullets.
Now tens of thousands of Qing troops have been compressed into a narrow area of the river beach, with dense crowds and the power of the flowering bullet will be exerted to the extreme without any wasting.
"Let it go!" The triangular flag waved, and the officer roared loudly.
The Qing army crowded on the beach, heard the rumbling cannons, and couldn't help but look up in horror. Then they saw the near black dots flashing in the air and falling directly into the crowd.
The violent explosion exploded in the crowd, and the Qing soldiers were torn to pieces by the explosion, and blood rained in the sky. The Qing army's broken limbs, legs, intestines and minced meat made the Qing cavalry face, and they were soaked in blood rain.
"Ahhh~" Screams came one after another, not all the screams of the injured Qing army, but more of the mentally broken Qing army roared in fear.
It was so scary! It hit me with one shot, exploded in the dense crowd, splashed meat, and intestines flowed all over the ground, and blood mist sprayed, which was enough to make anyone crazy and leave permanent trauma in their hearts.
Obai was flew to the ground by the waves of air, and his whole body was frightened. In front of the flower bullet, he realized that he was too small.
"Dog slave, get out of the way!" Oboi got up, slashed over the Mongolians blocking the way.
The Eight Yellow Banners behind them also slashed and slashed the Mongolians who blocked the bridge. In panic, countless people were squeezed into the river and washed away by the water.
The Mongolians did not expect that the people would kill them and scatter in horror.
And at this moment, the Wu Yue army, who had been running around on both sides, had already collided with the gathering Qing army.
Li Yuanyin led the cavalry in Jiangbei and repeatedly rushed among the Qing army's defeated troops, stained with blood, and divided the Qing army into pieces.
The Japanese soldiers and Bai Fan soldiers rushed into the Qing army, wielding their swords and spears to harvest the heads of the Qing soldiers.
As the Wu Yue army chased the defeated soldiers and crushed them up, the atmosphere of panic and despair instantly filled, and then turned into a desire to survive, and desperately squeezed onto the bridge, and countless Qing soldiers were washed away by the river.
Yue Le saw the cavalry who had fallen from the pontoon bridge and was washed away by the washed-out cavalry, the horses and cavalry were washed away with the flow of water, and couldn't help crying.
These are all Eight Banners, they are truly a man of Man!
However, it was useless to cry at this time. Tens of thousands of fierce Qing cavalry had become ownerless lonely souls. Under the fierce attacks of the Wu Yue army on three sides and under the bombardment of artillery, the Qing army on the south bank was defeated on its entire line!
The Eight Banners and Mongolian cavalry were mixed together, crowded across the river, lost the courage to resist, and only focused on escaping.
At this moment, they are no longer brave and warlike Eight Banners warriors, nor are they Mongolian cavalry scattered across the grasslands, but just defeated soldiers who flee in a hurry.
The Wu Yue army, which was pressing up from three sides, massacred the Qing army on the south bank. The cavalry flew over and the musketeers advanced like a wall, rafted guns and shot them unscrupulously. The Qing army fell to the ground like being cut wheat.
The Qing general Ebilong was shot into a sieve by a gun. The worst was that Prince Korqin Wu Keshan, who was originally crossing the river to reinforce, but Oboi killed the Mongolian soldiers crowded at the bridge and fled by himself, leaving him on the south bank.
