They were marching in the wilderness. Suddenly, there was a loud hoof. There was no doubt that this was the cavalry of the Chinese thieves!
The reason is very simple, because their army has no cavalry, and suddenly there are cavalry, which can only be the enemy's cavalry.
On their way to March, they encountered the attack of the enemy cavalry without prevention. This made Zhou yanru's face greatly changed and his heart was cold. He said loudly: "enemy attack! Enemy attack! Quickly set up the array, quickly set up the array."
On the March, when they encounter the attack of the enemy cavalry, they form an array to resist. This is the best way. The general practice is that the spearmen hold the spear in front and the sword shield in the back. It is better if there are Musketeers and archers to cover.
The book of war also said so, so Zhou yanru did nothing wrong. He did it according to the book of war.
However, the soldiers he brought were garbage soldiers. They had not been trained for a long time. They could only barely line up. When they marched in the dark, they suddenly met the enemy's attack, and they were expected to form an army array to resist the impact of the enemy's cavalry with group strength?
They simply can't do this. When the hooves sound like thunder and the enemy roars and kills, these soldiers don't form an array to protect themselves, but run away one after another.
Some people want to form an array, but their officers can't find soldiers, soldiers can't find officers, and they are in a mess. They don't know how to form an array, where to stand and what to do. They are scared and have no basis. When they are in a mess, they see someone running away. Since someone runs away, it's difficult for them to die here? As soon as they throw their weapons, they all run.
When Zhou yanru saw such a situation, he was very angry and angry. He said with all his strength, "you're looking for death. Come back quickly and end the battle!" when he saw the soldiers running away, he was furious. He learned from the book, pulled out his waist knife and directly cut off the heads of several deserters.
It is said that in chaos, when soldiers fled in chaos, they killed several people's heads in public. This is called a heavy code in troubled times, which can stabilize the morale and morale of the army.
Who knows, Zhou yanru cut off several people's heads and couldn't stop the collapse. On the contrary, several soldiers were unwilling to cut off their heads to him and fought against him with a knife.
Although these soldiers are disabled and defeated, their physical fitness is better than Zhou yanru, a scholar who has no strength to bind chickens. If he is not protected by his own soldiers, he is afraid that these soldiers will be hacked to death.
However, they saw that these soldiers were crazy, fled for the road, slashed indiscriminately, dared not stop, and made way one after another. As a result, they, an army with a mission to attack the Chinese army, heard the sound of the enemy's cavalry hoofs, and ran away.
Zhou yanru and others saw that the soldiers had run away. Knowing that it was impossible to resist the enemy's cavalry on their own, they had to flee.
As a result, they just ran away, and the cavalry of the Chinese Army roared to death.
In fact, this cavalry is not the main force of the Chinese army, but one of their Rangers, about more than 100 people, responsible for attacking and advancing and inquiring about various military information.
They bypassed the heavily guarded Langfang and rushed directly to the capital. On the way, they found this chaotic marching team.
The cavalry is only more than 100 people, and the commander is Mongolian bater. Bater is a hundred household officer under burigud. He is very brave in riding and shooting. This time, he asked himself to be a forward officer to investigate and advance all the way.
According to the regulations, when they encounter the enemy's army, they should hide and report the information to the military headquarters.
But when Bartel saw this army, he was so noisy that he dared to advance towards Langfang in the rain. Where is the army? It's not as good as a group of farmers with weapons.
Without hesitation, bater immediately ordered the whole army to attack. Although there were hundreds of bater's cavalry, once they launched an assault, they issued a great momentum, and suddenly attacked this noisy team. They sat on the horses, took sabers, and slashed and killed these fleeing Ming troops.
They are not charging in front at all, but looking at slaughtering the enemy.
Originally, the morale and morale of this army were low, and it was reluctantly maintained into an army by relying on the prestige of the imperial court. As a result, when the cavalry of the Chinese army attacked them, they collapsed and scattered in an instant. They fled one after another. The army of tens of thousands of people let hundreds of cavalry chase and chop all the way.
Bartel's cavalry is equipped with standard equipment of the Chinese army. They are equipped with muskets and crossbows. At the same time, they are also equipped with grenades, javelins and other weapons.
When attacking the enemy's army, they will use muskets, bows, arrows and grenades for long-range attacks. When they get close, they will cut and kill with machetes.
As a result, they didn't encounter any resistance at all. Naturally, they didn't use guns or grenades for long-range attacks. Instead, they took sabers and rushed directly into the Ming army array, slashing and killing.
In the dark, the Ming army did not know how many cavalry of the Chinese army came. They only knew that the other party was cavalry and elite troops. They didn't dare to resist. They just ran for their lives. As a result, they were pressed by the enemy.
The cavalry of the Chinese Army knows very well that in the war between the two armies, they rarely kill the enemy. The real result is when the enemy collapses and chases him with his tail.
They had just started fighting, and the enemy began to collapse. Then they slashed and killed the enemy. Bartel was very arrogant. He rode on a horse and quickly controlled the horse. His war horse swimming fish generally ran back and forth among the enemy crowd. He waved a saber and cut it out behind him. Each sabre cut out, he killed a Ming army.
Bartel knew that the other party was numerous and powerful. He didn't take advantage of the night to cover and let the other party don't know how many people would run. If he didn't press the other party to fight and let the other party know that he was such a person, it would be their dead end to fight back. Therefore, they didn't hesitate at all. If they caught up with the enemy, they would slash and kill. Even if they knelt down and begged for mercy, it would be a knife.
As a result, they repeatedly rushed and killed in their group of deserters, and suddenly threw the army into chaos. They had no fighting spirit at all. They just ran for their lives. They ran fast and slowly, so the Chinese Army cut off their heads on the spot.
Bartel rode his tall horse and quickly shuttled through the Ming army crowd. When he saw people, he cut them. Without the slightest pity and hesitation, he cut three knives.
Generally speaking, the cavalry of the Chinese army are equipped with four knives. These knives are spare parts to prevent them from being lost in battle. He cut off three knives. It can be seen how many people he cut.
In the dark, more than 100 cavalry chased and killed tens of thousands of Ming troops, making them cry for their parents.
Bartel saw a group of people running for their lives in front of him, guarding an official in red robes. He immediately realized that it might be the commander of the other party. Bartel waved his sword and said loudly, "the fat sheep is right there. Hurry up."
The Mongol cavalry used to cut and kill on their own, taking individuals as units. However, after hearing the commander's order, several groups of people immediately gathered together and attacked each other with bater as the core.
Zhou yanru escaped, but there were hundreds of personal soldiers to protect him. After all, he was the commander of this army and the chief assistant of the cabinet of Daming. The wealth of these soldiers also landed on him, so he could protect him to escape.
Who knows, they were so unlucky that Bartel caught them at once. When he caught up with them 50 steps, he began to use bows and arrows to shoot at these regimented officers and soldiers from a long distance.
In fact, this Ming army can be called elite. Most of them are bodyguards. They are very skilled in martial arts. Fighting alone, they may not be afraid of these Mongolian cavalry. But now it's dark. They are defeated like a mountain and just run for their lives.
They didn't dare to fight back at all. As a result, most people fled desperately. As a result, the Mongolian army chased and killed them one by one. They chased and killed them all the way. There were dozens of bodyguards left of more than 100 people.
When these bodyguards saw that the opportunity was bad, they knew that the other party was coming for the chief auxiliary. When they saw that the momentum was wrong, they immediately left the team and ran for their lives. Some people lay on the ground and pretended to be dead.
As a result, there were only about ten people left around Zhou yanru. Unfortunately, they were quickly surrounded by Bartel's horse team and couldn't escape.
Bartel's horse team found that the team was still holding a handsome flag, which could really be called a fat sheep. Bartel was very happy and said loudly, "you surrender immediately, or you'll be shot to death!"
These people were surrounded by the enemy at once, and they were extremely afraid. Although they protected Zhou yanru, he was also scared to soften his legs, because they saw with their own eyes how cruel and cruel these cavalry soldiers were. If they fell into their hands and slashed them, they would end up in a different place.
A bodyguard stammered, "we are the bodyguards of Lord Zhou yanru, the chief assistant of the Daming cabinet. Don't you step down soon."
The other party reported his family, which stunned Bartel and others. They knew there was a fat sheep here, but they didn't know it was so fat.
The other side is the head and auxiliary of the open cabinet. If they hold it, it is a miracle. Originally, according to Bartel's original intention, they surrounded the generals and killed all these people, carrying their heads to receive rewards. The Chinese army also likes to use the head to remember military achievements.
A head, but very valuable. Who knows that the other party reported to himself that it was such a big black grass sheep, which made him ecstatic. He said loudly, "brothers, use a harness pole."
