Chapter 276 Fierce battle with Yuan (87)

Gao Funiu, whose original surname was Guo and whose nickname was Liulang. He was born in Songxian County, Henan Province. His family suffered a disaster when he was young, so he was sent to the Shaolin Temple to work as a handyman for three years. Then there was a drought, and the income of the temple dropped sharply. He had no choice but to leave the temple to make a living in Xinzheng, near Xinzheng, where he worked as a prostitute.

Liu Fang, who stayed in the village to work in farming for one year, was transferred to the coal mine due to Kong Wu's inability, was selected into the mine protection team one year later, and was promoted to deputy detachment leader of the mine protection team one year later.

In the 19th year of Wanli's 14th year, he was transferred to the capital for training. Due to his outstanding performance, he was selected as a cavalryman. The following year, he was promoted to the shed commander and his surname was changed to Gao. In the 17th year of Wanli, he was appointed as the platoon leader and in the 19th year of Wanli, he was appointed as the company commander.

In the 21st year, he was appointed as the battalion commander. In the 19th year of Wanli, he was awarded the name "Funiu" for winning the military competition of cavalry and cavalry. This is why Gao pragmatically took the name of his birthplace, Funiu Mountain.

The 25-year-old Gao Funiu was younger than the head of the family, Gao Jingjing, and as the annual champion of the cavalry competition, his equestrian skills, horse fighting, cavalry tactics and other abilities were among the best among the cavalry in Beijing. The so-called art

A wise man is bold, and his performance at this moment perfectly illustrates this truth.

With a weak force of 300 men, he not only had to compete with the Mongolian elite cavalry, which was killed by about a thousand cavalry, but also dared to say "just go and come back". Naturally, he was not just relying on his bravery. In fact, the Beijing cavalry

In addition to the ferocity brought about by his generous pay and care, as well as strict training and orders, Ding was also equipped with grenades specially prepared for this battle.

Before the war, inspired by Budyonny's article, Gao Pragmatic gathered the few grenades and distributed them. Of course, his bodyguards, the cavalry, would get them. Although the cavalry came out in a hurry this time, the grenades they carried were very limited.

, but fortunately it was distributed centrally, and each of the five hundred cavalrymen still received three pills. If they are used properly, the effectiveness will not be bad.

At this time, Gao Funiu requested to go to war, and all the secretaries around Gao Funiu also persuaded him to agree. The war was unusual, and there was no time to think about it. Gao Funiu approved Gao Funiu's attack with a wave of his hand.

Gao Funiu shouted "take the order" and immediately led the selected troops to move forward slowly and quickly formed an array.

At almost the same time as Gao Pragmatic's Chinese army guards took the initiative to prepare for a counterattack, Ye Bangrong, the actual commander-in-chief of the Chinese army, sent someone from the front to report that he found that the rear formation was out of touch and that the Mongolian army might cooperate with the front and rear to attack from behind, so he asked for instructions to mobilize

A thousand men as a reserve team turned around and killed the enemy.

The younger brothers Gao Wuruo and Gao Wuzheng supported Ye Bangrong's idea, but Military Secretary Ruan Fuyuan thought there was no need to rush. Although Ruan Fuyuan was in charge of the navy rather than the army when he was the military secretary, his father was originally in the army, and he didn't understand.

army.

His point of view at this time is that since Gao Funiu has gone up with confidence, the command should have the same confidence in him, and any evaluation or new arrangements should wait until he fights. Specific to Ye Bangrong's thousand reserve team

, we might as well order him to get close to the general camp, take over the core defense tasks after Gao Funiu left, and be ready to respond to the development of the war situation.

Gao Pragmatic chose to adopt Ruan Fuyuan's opinion and ordered Ye Bangrong to send the thousand men over to take over the defense first. Ye Bangrong immediately complied, but he did not come himself, but continued to direct in front of the formation.

In fact, the command in front of the formation is already very difficult at this moment. It is not a question of being able to fight, but that it is generally difficult to make effective adjustments after cold weapons engage in battle. Heavy infantry with superior defenses are easier to handle, relying on

A strict military formation can make tactical changes such as "fight while retreating", but cavalry is more troublesome.

It is easier to adjust when using cavalry against infantry. After all, if the cavalry wants to retreat, it is difficult for the infantry to stop it. It is different when using cavalry against cavalry, especially since the Ming cavalry is not as fast as the Mongolian cavalry. Retreating means being driven away.

beat.

For these reasons, Ye Bangrong has been directly deploying troops on the front line. Wherever he is at a disadvantage, he needs to make up for his troops. Where he has an advantage, he needs to find ways to break through. Although the protection strategy is very important, if the front line is fought well enough, the enemy can be directly defeated.

Army, then the value of the task of protecting the manager is actually greatly reduced.

Gao Funiu turned back to meet the enemy, and Ye Bangrong held Qi's callback [Note: Waqi explained it yesterday when talking about the formation]. Of course, such a move could not be hidden from Burihatu, who was also stationed in the central army instead of being on the front line.

Burihatu raised his chin slightly and ordered the people on his left and right: "Hold the nine white silk banners high, nine times in a row." The people on the left and right immediately carried out the instructions.

This action is not particularly eye-catching in the military formation. Generally, even if the Ming army notices it, they will only think that the opponent is boosting morale and will not pay too much attention to it. However, this action was agreed in advance by Burihatu and Buyan Huangtaiji.

Okay, it means that Burihatu informed the latter that it is time to take action.

Buyan Huang Taiji personally led 3,000 people to wander on the outermost edge of the right wing. It originally seemed to be to guard against the "ambush" of the 5,000 Ming army on the other side of the crater. In fact, in addition to this purpose, their other purpose was to execute the cavalry's most common flank.

Cover up.

Burihatu knew that the Ming army was already half armored, and its ability to engage in close combat was bound to be stronger than that of the Mongolian army. It would be extremely difficult to achieve the kind of flag-rolling and crossing camp that Li Shimin had done in the past, just by relying on so-called bravery.

Therefore, his initial plan was to use this right-wing ranger, which seemed to be to guard against the presence of the Ming Army in the crater, to flank the Ming Army's left wing as a trump card in this battle. In order to achieve this goal, Buriha

Tu even handed over 80% of his Baiying bodyguards to Buyan Huang Taiji.

There is an obvious question here, that is, since Buyan Huang Taiji was originally confronting the "ambush" of the Ming army, once he flanked the left wing of the Ming army, how could this ambush of 5,000 people sit idly by and ignore it? What if?

Wouldn't this ambush force rush down the mountain to cause even greater chaos?

Of course it will, but there is a time difference here, and there are also differences in command caused by different equipment.

Although the crater here is not very high, it would take half a stick of incense to run from the mountain to the bottom, and Buyan Huangtaiji would not be stupid enough to place himself at the foot of the mountain, so he would definitely have to keep some distance.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! This move seems very reasonable to the Ming army on the mountain, because no one would expect the enemy to be stupid enough to wait at the foot of the mountain for them to rush down from the mountain and take advantage of the geographical advantage.

They resisted forcefully, so the Ming army acquiesced. In this way, there was a time difference of about one stick of incense between the Ming army on the mountain and Buyan Huangtaiji at the bottom.

The above is still under the condition that Buyan Huangtaiji is stationary. What if he moves? This time difference will only widen, not shrink. The reason is very simple. The Mongolian cavalry is faster, while the Ming cavalry is not only slower, but also slower.

And because they were half-equipped, they had to consider the distance of the target of the action - if they ran too far at full speed, and if the war horses lost power after running to the battlefield, it would be doomed.

Therefore, Burihatu had negotiated with Buyan Huangtaiji before the war. Due to the above disadvantages of the Ming cavalry, they would not dare to go at full speed when pursuing and entering the battlefield. They could only go at full speed one to two miles before entering the battlefield.

In this way, with the support of many parties, the Mongolian army could grab about one and a half sticks of incense to flank the main force of the Ming army.

In other words, the core of Burihatu's tactics revolves around two words from beginning to end: speed!

The time difference is formed through the speed advantage, and the force difference is formed through the time difference, and then supplemented by tactical flank attacks, outflanking and other advantages, the final result is the weak defeating the strong.

It has to be said that Burihatu has indeed maximized the remaining advantage of the Mongolian cavalry. Not only has he reached the peak of "knowing yourself", but he also seems to be not bad at "knowing the enemy", at least from the current point of view.

, the highly pragmatic approach to the challenge was not beyond Burihatu’s expectations.

This actually confirms an idea that Burihatu had before the war: Gao Rixin is good at general strategy but bad at facing battle. In terms of general strategy, he has used various means over the years to make Chahar almost collapse, as if he might suffocate to death at any time;

However, when it came to the battle, he couldn't see enough. There were three lines on the left, center and right, with the two wings leaning forward. This formation was almost like a Yuli Formation. It couldn't be more traditional. The only thing better than the Yuli Formation was

They just put two thousand people behind them to guard the passage to Lightning Lake.

All in all, from Burihatu's point of view, Gao Pragmatic's battle formation was really disgraceful, and at best it was quite satisfactory, with really no bright spots at all.

However, Burihatu's nervousness has not been much relieved. The accumulation of tactical advantages can indeed bring some opportunities for the victory he hopes for, but the battlefield itself has many unexpected variables. How can he dare to relax until the last moment?

Seeing that the dust on the right wing was flying, it must be Buyan Huangtaiji who was coming to kill him. Buyan Hatu temporarily reduced his attention to this side, and began to retreat quietly, withdrawing from the front line to observe whether the Ming army's rear defense was facing collapse.

If the Ming army's rear defense collapses, and then Buyan Huang Taiji attacks from the flank, then the overall situation of this battle is basically decided. After all, the main battle has been defeated, and even if the Ming army in the crater arrives, there should be no confidence that they can save it.

Now that the situation is over, the most we can do is consider whether Gao Rixin can be rescued.

This credit was a godsend to the two Ming army generals, and it might even be greater than the credit for the perfect ambush. With this credit beckoning, what else could he think of to save the defeat? Naturally, he hurriedly rescued Mr. Jingtai.

It's only right to go.

However, although Burihatu's idea was reasonable and full, the reality was cruel and skinny. Just when he set his sights on the rear of the Ming army, something appeared in the monocular telescope he got from nowhere.

A tragic scene that left him stunned.

A Ming army with a book-sword flag [Note: The cavalrymen do not usually wear armor because they avoid suspicion. They temporarily changed into the Ming army's standard equipment on the battlefield, so from a distance they look like the Ming army, only the flag is different.] Although there are not many people,

But he rushed towards the outflanking Mongolian army very bravely.

Of course, rushing over was not the reason why Burihatu was stunned. What stunned him was that the Ming army dared to suddenly split into two groups. It looked as if they wanted to surround a thousand people with three hundred people. Then, tragically

A scene appeared.

The Ming cavalrymen took out some short sticks that were thick at the top and thin at the bottom. They made a sudden pull with both hands and threw them at the Mongolian army. It looked like a gangster in the countryside picking up stones and hitting people.

Generally speaking, I find Burihatu inexplicable.

But then there were a series of explosions among the Mongolian army. The power of the explosion was quite strong, like fire falling from the sky. One explosion caused people to fall on their backs and blood splattered everywhere. After only one round of division of troops and bombing, the unprepared Mongolian army suffered heavy losses.

, and what’s even worse is that the lineup is in chaos, and the newly formed cone formation tends to disintegrate in an instant.

"Palm thunder?" Burihatu's reaction was very quick. After all, this thing was used by the Ming army before, but Burihatu's expression soon became more horrified: "When did the palm thunder have such power?"

Evil?"

Just when his burning heart turned cold as if a basin of cold water had been poured on it, the Ming army over there did not give up when it was good, but came again with no mercy.

Hundreds of explosions completely overwhelmed the unarmored Mongolian army. All formations and purposes were thrown aside. Many people were at a loss, not knowing whether it was time to continue attacking the enemy's rear.

, stop to rescue the injured, or simply run away.

The Ming army obviously didn't care what they were thinking. The two cavalry groups, which were significantly smaller than the Mongolian army, actually used the general idea of ​​​​outflanking to directly launch a fierce attack on their opponents. One by one, they galloped into the enemy's formation without caring about their own safety.

The chaotic Mongolian army harvested it like wheat.

What made Burihatu's heart bleed even more was that these Ming soldiers, fully equipped with armor, perfectly reproduced Qataiji's cavalry sword technique in the future. They held the sword in their backhand and raised it to the side, with the back of the sword supported by their elbows.

It all relies on horse power to cut down the enemy.

If this kind of sword technique is performed by just one person, it would be silly, but if it is performed by an army, it is like plowing the ground. The enemy in the formation will only find that the place in front of them is full of blades.

You can't escape wherever you run - unless you abandon your horse. But abandoning your horse is also a death, because once you abandon your horse, you will most likely be hit and trampled to death by the opponent's rushing horses.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! The thousand Mongolian troops who were so aggressive just now, hoping to defeat the main Ming army in one fell swoop, collapsed in a very short period of time, and were defeated by the people in front of them.

The Ming army, flying the Shujian flag, killed corpses all over the field, as if they were marching straight into an uninhabited land.

Burihatu's hands and feet felt cold, his eyes were about to burst, and he gritted his teeth and said: "What a palm thunder, what a Gao Rixin... Is this your trump card?"

He took a deep breath and suddenly turned his head. He no longer looked at the elite Mongolian army that had high hopes but now had no choice but to be destroyed. Instead, he turned his attention to the right wing, hoping that Buyan Huang Taiji would be fast enough. He had three thousand cavalry.

, among which there are nearly two thousand of the most elite Baiying personal guards. As long as they arrive in time, the victory of this battle is still within grasp.

Burihatu didn't believe that Gao Jingshi had a large number of the powerful palm mines just now, because if he had them, why didn't he use them before and only distributed them to his personal guards?

But at this time, there was more than one army outside the battlefield approaching the main battlefield at full speed. Just as Burihatu was staring at Buyan Huangtaiji who was coming from the right wing, someone suddenly exclaimed: "If the government is not good, the left wing has

A large group of cavalry is approaching!"

Burihatu was shocked and quickly turned around to look. With the power of the monocular in his hand, he quickly discovered that it was indeed a Ming army cavalry, and he was quite familiar with this cavalry, because the front side

There are six big characters written on the big banner like iron paintings and silver hooks - Liaodong Commander-in-Chief Li!
