Chapter 10 Cavalry and Musket
Atai did not encounter such a tangled situation. His army was two or three times that of the Ming army, but he did not dare to attack Yangjia Village. If the generals of the Eighth Stage of the Later Jin Dynasty knew about it, they would definitely be ridiculed by them.
"Master Qian, why don't we look back at the castle? Under the management of Wanghai Fort, even if thousands of Ming troops are coming to attack, we can defend..." The owner of Wanghai Fort no longer dared to mention the attack on Yangjia Village, and wanted to put on his wings and fly back to the castle.
"Idiot! More than 600 of us will be driven to the fortress by less than 200 of us? Do you know how I will die if Huang Taiji knows?" Gang Atai was angry and angry, "Everyone polished my weapons. After half an hour, everyone launched a general attack. I don't believe that 600 troops could not break through their defense line!"
Chu Yun was always paying attention to the dynamics of the Jin soldiers.
"Sir, they seem to have given up on the attack. Hahaha, I, Old Yang, have never fought such a happy battle in my life. We used less than half of our troops to directly eliminate dozens of Later Jin soldiers. If we report them to the court, it would be a big reward." Yang Tai counted the heads happily, thinking about cleaning the battlefield.
It was only a great achievement to beheading dozens of people. The court in the late Ming Dynasty really couldn't do it. Chu Yun shook his head, "I believe they will come back soon, and we will prepare for the battle as soon as possible."
Half an hour passed in an instant, and the Later Jin soldiers had gradually recovered from the initial panic. The six hundred soldiers, from front to back, lined up to a hundred meters long. The most precious cavalry was assigned to the front. It was obvious that Gang Atai planned to use the cavalry's maneuver power to quickly break through the Ming army's fire line and then cut out a bloody road with a saber.
"Xu--" Gang Atai got on the horse and supervised the battle himself.
"Caval team, charge!" Gang'Atai's sabre pointed directly in front!
Dozens of Later Jin cavalry clamped their horses' belly with their feet and launched a charge towards the Ming army! The Later Jin battle flag was flying in the air. These cavalry who surrendered to the Later Jin launched a charge towards their former comrades under the glory of the warriors from the prairie!
"Murders, prepare to shoot!" There was almost no newness, nor was there any newness. Chu Yun's musketeers raised the brand new French rifle.
The cavalry was rushing and lightning, and was the only army that could pose a threat to Chu Yun’s musket team. If they met the cavalry on the plain, Chu Yun would definitely try his best to escape from a distance.
"Shoot! Fire!" As soon as the cavalry entered the range, Chu Yun couldn't wait to order.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Muskets sounded one after another! Although the cavalry was fast, the target of the people and horses was even bigger. The cavalry rushing in the front was shot through by bullets! The wailing war horse fell to the ground, and the cavalry following three meters later had no time to dodge, and was tripped by the fallen war horses, and for a moment they were overturned!
"Shoot the arrow!"
After entering the range of muskets, the Later Jin cavalry charged with the musket, bent their bows and arrows, and finally began to counterattack the Ming army.
Because the cavalry were far apart, only more than a dozen bows and arrows were shot at a time, and the threat from the Ming army was almost negligible.
The distance of more than one hundred steps was too short for the cavalry. In an instant, the Later Jin cavalry rushed to the front of the Ming army at a price of nearly half!
There were obstacles made of stones and wood between the Ming and Jin soldiers. However, this was not a problem. The Jin soldiers could use the bodies of companions and war horses to break open this simple obstacle.
The frustrated cavalry of the Later Jin Dynasty showed a ferocious smile. He could already see the face of the Ming army opposite. In just a few seconds, his sabre would cut off the heads of these hateful Ming army.
However, something that no one could have expected at this moment happened. The Later Jin cavalry, who was about to face the Ming army, suddenly fell into the ground and fell down!
Perhaps because he was too concerned about the firearms in Ming Jun's hands, Gang Atai lost his due vigilance and forgot the trap under his feet.
The trench dug by Chu Yun was prepared by the Later Jin cavalry!
"shot!"
Behind the Gang'atai army, a team of muskets wearing Ming army uniforms came out of the mountains and forests, and a row of muskets were greeted directly! The person coming was Chang Yi, the second captain of the Fuliao Camp! Chu Yun specially asked Chang Yi to take some of his troops to the rear of the Later Jin soldiers, and he used his bait!
"It was Mao Wenlong who came in person?" The soldiers of the Later Jin Dynasty were immediately in panic. I don't know who mentioned Mao Wenlong, which even worsened the soldiers' panic.
Speaking of Mao Wenlong in Dongjiang Town, I'm afraid no one will know about these people.
"Everyone keep it steady, we can win!" Gang Atai, who was commanding the attack, found that the Ming army cut off his retreat. He could not tell how many Ming troops were there for a while, so he had to try to stabilize his army.
Compared with the panicked Gang'atai, the Ming army seemed extremely calm.
"Shoot!" "Shoot!" "Shoot!"
There is no unnecessary tactic, just fire mechanically! In front of the firearm, all the eight-foot-height, natural divine power, and a hundred steps to penetrate Yang are empty! If you can't kill one shot, then two shots! One by one, the Later Jin soldiers fell in front of the muskets. They also had bows and arrows, muskets, and big swords and spears, which could cause casualties to the Ming army. However, the Ming army's firepower was too strong, and the Later Jin soldiers were in a panic, so they were suppressed by a small number of people from the Ming army.
Seeing that the situation was getting better, Chu Yun couldn't help but hold his flintlock pistol and wanted to kill an enemy.
"The chief's accusation is command, and we cannot show off our courage." Chadri stopped Chu Yun in time.
When the two sides fought, if Chu Yun entered the attack range of the Houjin soldiers' bows or muskets, it would be meaningless to fight the battle.
"Don't kill!" After attacking the Later Jin army one after another, and causing them severe damage, the Ming army launched a psychological offensive against the Later Jin soldiers.
Bang. I don’t know who took the lead in throwing down the weapons, and then groups of Later Jin soldiers also gave up their resistance...
"Soldiers, please spare us. We are all people of the Ming Dynasty. Please spare us!" The Lord of Wanghai Fort kowtowed to the direction where Chu Yun was, and his scalp was broken. It seemed that he was scared.
"Who is your commander? Stand up!" Chu Yun and the battalion team took their armed battle and finally stood up in a swagger.
This time he wanted to see which big fish he caught in the Later Jin Dynasty.
"Report to my master, this time the team leader is Gang Atai, the third son of the third-class general of the Later Jin Dynasty. All actions are commanded by him, but it is not my business. Please give me a clear understanding!" The owner of Wanghai Fort immediately put all the blame on Gang Atai.
"Tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk, the son of the third-class general, is quite a bit of a small background! Where is he? Why don't you come to see me?" Chu Yun looked around the surrendered Later Jin soldiers.
"I am the adjutant of Gang'a Tai Qianhu. We, the adult, were killed by stray bullets...so the young man ordered the surrender..." said an officer from the Later Jin school.
No wonder the Later Jin soldiers surrendered so easily. It turned out that Gang Atai was shot and killed in chaos.
"It's really cheap. I wonder if anyone from Wanghai Castle came?" Chu Yun asked again,
"I am just the lord of the Fortress. I don't know what the Jun Ye has to give? The young one must do his best!"
"Actually, there is nothing special. I heard that you have collected a lot of gold, silver, treasures and grain from Wanghai Fort. Our soldiers in Dongjiang Town have been stationed on the island for a long time and are in short supply. I wonder if the fortress owner is willing to fund us?"
"I know, I know, I know, just go to our Wanghai Fort to move out. The young man dare not leave any complaints."
"That's good. By the way, you can go with us to Guangkashima and help us build Guangkashima."
