Chapter 491: The West Wind Breaks The East Wind
He Heli led the female real yellow flag cavalry to run northward. When they passed through the northern camp of Jurchens, they were only intercepted by sporadic soldiers of the Pou Nu Army who were cleaning the battlefield. But He Heli dared not fight. Even when facing the auxiliary soldiers of the Pou Nu Army of hundreds, He Heli only urged not to entangle with any small troops of the Pou Nu Army, and break north with all his might. Zhang Ping'an, the commander of the Pou Nu Army who was watching the battle in Shuangsheng Mountain, was furious when he saw thousands of Priu Qinshou cavalry breaking through. He turned his head away from the telescope and looked at the mark of the officer leading the Pou Nu Army on the map and said: "Come here! He ordered Du Xiaoshan to kill the commander of the Thousand General Yang Yongtao in charge of the command of the department!"
Soon, the flag-speaking hand on Shuangsheng Mountain passed the command of Zhang Dashen to Hu Ming's command position by relay transmission. Du Xiaoshan beat the horse and was about to go north after receiving the order. After Hu Ming learned about Zhang Dashen's order, he dispatched troops to block the attack of Wuzhenchao Ha Camp led by Li Yongfang. While riding a horse to rush to Du Xiaoshan's mount, he grabbed Du Xiaoshan's horse reins and pleaded with mercy: "Brothers of Xiaoshan, Yang Yongtao should die. However, there is a provision in the Regulations on the Break Slave Army that as long as the winner of the gold medal can be exempted from death. Yang Yongtao received one second and third-class gold medals personally issued by the General Manager, and he could be exempted from death twice according to the Regulations on the Break Slave Army. You see..."
But Du Xiaoshan didn't sell Hu Ming's account at all. He waved the whip and shoveled Hu Ming's hand pulling the reins, and replied with a cold expression: "Dutong Hu, don't make yourself unhappy. The Regulations of the Slave Defeat: Those who disobey the military order will be killed without mercy! The commander's military order has been issued, and Yang Yongtao is still alive!"
After saying that, Du Xiaoshan took out the gold medal of Zhang Dashuai from his arms and waved it to the inspector beside him, and rushed to the northwest. Looking at Du Xiaoshan's back running away, Hu Ming felt cold in his heart. Then he remembered that Zhang Dashuai was not the chief of staff Gu Xin, but a commander of a high-ranking position could control it. Boss Zhang was ruthless and cruel, and no old brother dared to stick out his tiger beard. Du Xiaoshan was even more unrecognizable to his relatives. As long as the orders given by Zhang Dashuai did not care about right or wrong, he would never be discounted when executed.
Hu Ming could only sigh secretly that Yang Yongtao was unlucky at this moment. Hu Ming walked back to his command position with his horse heads. He had to fight back Li Yongfang's attack and guard against the female real yellow flag breaking out from his direction. If there was a mistake here, Boss Zhang might have to take action against him. Although the 20,000 Wuzhen Chaoha camp musket soldiers under Li Yongfang were in charge of the 20,000 Wuzhen Chaoha camp musket soldiers under Li Yongfang, they arranged eight square formations to press towards him, but Hu Ming was not very worried, because the flanks of Wuzhen Chaoha camp musket soldiers led by Li Yongfang were exposed in front of Zhao Guangming's position.
Hu Ming, who returned to the command position, stood on the horse's back and observed the firefighting of the musket soldiers on both sides. Hu Ming saw that although the five thousand musket soldiers of Huang Zhi's army were also used by the Thousand-man army, the specific arrangement of the military formation was different from other combat camps. About a thousand veterans were lying on the ground and shooting, and a sharpshooter team even clicked heavily in front of the formation to kill the officers leading the Wuzhen Chaoha camp. Because the armor on the Jurchen Wuzhen Chaoha camp was dark gray, which was quite similar to the black armor of the Pound-Slave Army, when the sky was getting late, Hu Ming, who was watching the battle, thought that the two troops of the Pound-Slave Army were conducting military exercises with his naked eyes.
Just now, the Bonnie Army's crossbows were mainly attacking the female real Huangqi camp, and they fired more than a dozen rounds in succession on the battlefield. The crossbow bow ropes had to be replaced and the shooting position had to be adjusted. This caused the Bonnie Army's musketeers on the front line to temporarily lose the support of artillery fire. With the crackling sound of the musketeers on both sides, the decisive battle of musketeers on both sides began. Since they were not bombarded by the Bonnie Army's crossbows*, Li Yongfang certainly had to grasp this excellent fighter. As a veteran in the battlefield, Li Yongfang certainly knew that the fire of musketeers must be dense to truly suppress the opponent's musketeers. Li Yongfang, who had always been afraid of death, has also become brave since he completely surrendered to the Jurchens.
He ordered people to use a pack horse to drag a chariot to observe the enemy situation. Li Yongfang stood on the Wang Dou and looked at the Ponu Army Army formation. The Wuzhenchao camp's formation still had to go forward fifty steps and had to stop and complete the team, which greatly delayed the speed of the attack. Tong Yangxing led the army to attack the Ponu Army positions outside the Wuzhenchao camp, and it was used to attack the scattered soldiers and was wiped out by the entire army. Babutebele had no extravagance to rescue the father Khan Nurhaci in the Huangqi camp. Although Babute didn't say anything, he was unwilling to send more troops out of the camp to fight, so he had already expressed his attitude.
The black army formation of the Pou Nu Army opposite was arranged in a long horizontal formation of five thousand-man army formations. When the Wuzhen Chao Ha Camp soldiers were more than 70 feet away from the Pou Nu Army formation, the first round of the Pou Nu Army muskets had been fired. The sound of scattered and not dense muskets sounded. Behind the low guard walls composed of two-foot-high earth bags, white smoke from the fire of the group of muskets emerged. The flag bearers of various divisions of the Wuzhen Chao Ha Camp were the first to be attacked. Only then did Li Yongfang realize that Tong Yangxing suggested that the Jurchen officers leading the troops be placed in the back of the formation. If these Jurchen officers were shot and killed by the Pou Nu Army in front of the formation, the front-line attack would definitely be in chaos.
But the battle flag that fell on the front line had just taken over, and was sniped by the sharpshooter of the Pou Nu Army again. After three consecutive flag bearers fell to the ground, the war soldiers who picked up the battle flag became much smarter one by one. After picking up the battle flag, they all hid in a crowded place in the formation, causing the sharpshooter of the Pou Nu Army to lose their killing target. Huang Zhi's musket soldiers were experienced in the battle. They raised the shooting angle of the musket and fired the enemy formation with the general command, causing a bloody storm in the Wuzhenchao Ha Camp military formation.
The two sides were eighty feet apart, which happened to be the longest range of the Boru Army's musket. The shield in the hands of the shield in front of the Wu Zhenchao camp formation still resisted the attack of lead bullets. The powerful impact of the lead bullet only forced the shield to repel the shield three steps and nailed it firmly on the shield. However, the shooting tactics of the Boru Army's musket were still the bloody and pink fog on the Wu Zhenchao camp warriors in the military formation. The fallen warriors were then trampled on by their companions behind them, and their painful wailing gradually disappeared.
Li Yongfang, who was two and a half miles away, only then did he realize how helpless Tong Yangxing was when the entire army was attacking in formation. Before the Pou Nu Army fired, the fire of Wu Zhenchao Ha Camp killed and injured a lot. Just when Li Yongfang was glad that his troops were not bombarded by the Pou Nu Army, the fifty crossbows on Zhao Guangming's position immediately fired at the left wing of the Wu Zhenchao Ha Camp. This shelling caused the left wing of the Wu Zhenchao Ha Camp to fall into chaos.
Li Yongfang did not hesitate at all when he saw this situation, and immediately ordered the left-wing military formation to no longer control the formation of the formation and quickly approach the Ponu Army formation. After half an hour of adjustment, the fifty chariots of Hu Ming's army had turned the front of the car and slowly stepped into the passing position. Hu Ming arranged this offensive position on the right wing of the entire army formation, considering that Zhao Guangming's crossbows would definitely launch artillery bombardment on the Jurchen Wuzhen Chaoha Camp. As for the left wing of his own military formation, Hu Ming held enough cavalry in his hand. When the two sides fought together, the cavalry was the decisive factor in the victory or defeat on the battlefield.
When the left wing of Wuzhenchao Ha Camp was in a scattered attack state, Hu Ming immediately ordered the chariot to penetrate into the enemy's left wing army formation, disrupting the offensive momentum of Wuzhenchao Ha Camp. Zhao Guangming's position began to shoot the second round at the left wing of Wuzhenchao Ha Camp, accelerating the chaos on the left wing of Wuzhenchao Ha Camp, like an invisible whip whipping the officers and soldiers of Wuzhenchao Ha Camp rushed towards the Ponu Army formation. This gray ocean shouted and rushed towards the right wing army formation of the Ponu Army in the rumbling explosion.
At this moment, the right wing of the Ponu Army continued to fire lead guns at the Ming trait soldiers who were attacking. The left wing of the Wuzhenchao camp was continuously fired from the Zhao Guangming's position on the road of charge, causing huge casualties in the dense military formation. Two rounds of the * shelling left wing of the Ponu Army left behind six or seven hundred soldiers in the area less than half a mile. In addition, the continuous shooting of the Ponu Army's muskets, the Wuzhenchao camp's muskets would pay the price of death every step forward.
In particular, the fifty chariots sent by Hu Ming formed a font-shaped attack formation, and penetrated into a wide array of miles, forming the most typical large inclined attack formation of the Po Slave Army. Although the chariots were slow to move, the continuous launch of the chariots made the Wuzhen Chaoha camp musket soldiers in the scattered formation suffer a lot. The Jurchen musket soldiers shot on the chariots fifty feet away, turning the front of the chariots into a numb face, but did not change the chariot's firm attack pace at all.
Of course, Hu Ming knew that the chariots could not fight against enemy infantry alone, so he sent a thousand cavalry to be used for pursuit, dismounted and organized into ten hundred-man teams with muskets to cover the attack of the chariots. Although Zhao Guangming's army was nervous about defending the position, he still sent a team of thousands of ghost swords to support Hu Ming's battle. It was the addition of this Ghost Sword Team that caused Hu Ming's seemingly thin right wing to undergo quantitative changes. When the Ghost Sword Team rode to the battlefield, Tan Yuzhou, the deputy general of the Ghost Sword Team, led the team. Due to the identity of the personal military camp, the Ghost Sword Team's status on the battlefield was higher than that of ordinary military military camps, so he naturally took over the command.
