When the Mongolian cavalry rushed over, they had been scattered and became a bunch of rangers in the east and west.
The role of the chain horse is very great. No one goes back to support this five-horse combination. Nine four-meter-five-meter long spears are in front of the horse's head, diagonally upward at an angle of 30 degrees, and on the horse's head
Under the bumps, the extremely elastic ash wood gun shaft shook out a large area of gun spray. It was dazzling.
The Mongols and war horses on the opposite side couldn't see clearly which one was the gun head and which one was the shadow. They walked around from both sides one after another. As a result, the line of battle lines was immediately in pieces.
After the chain of horses in front rushed over, there was a group of five horses behind, connected together by the cavalry team. Because of the binding, these were just poor riders who could only ride a horse, and they immediately transformed into wall riders like Yang Fan's servants. They shouldered
Side by side, reaching the minimum distance.
Because it was difficult to control, Yan Yingyuan did not form a large horizontal formation of eleven people, but a group of five. This is very maneuverable. It is also very easy to turn around and maneuver.
The Tumut people rushed past the chain horse and immediately discovered that although the regiments on the opposite side were all rookies, it could be seen from the way they held their knives. They were all raw melons and eggs.
They also saw that if his legs were not tied to the horse, he would not be able to control the horse and fight at the same time. But now Yan Yingyuan learned from Cao A'ao and connected the cavalry together to form a wall formation, and the situation immediately changed.
Because the Mongols are used to relatively sparse formations. The spacing between their cavalry is generally about two meters. This distance is exactly the distance between the output of the two horse knights, their arms and their scimitars.
But now, the Mongols discovered that the two of them were actually going to deal with five people head-on. With five knives coming at them, it was difficult to defend against two of them.
For these rookies, Yan Yingyuan just said, if you know how to swing a sword, just go and become a cavalry.
If you don't know how to ride a horse, just tie your lower limbs to the horse, and that's it. The rest is to swing the knife desperately.
Unexpectedly, Mongolia discovered that although these people were all rookies, after a group of five people were connected to form a fixed wall, their fighting advantage was completely offset, and they suffered a big loss.
Ignoring these raw melons and eggs, the five men raised their swords to chop them together. After a flash of sword light, the two Mongolians hacked to death the two Ming army drills, but they were also hacked to death by three other swords.
As for the dead man, although his body was spurting blood, his body was still firmly fixed on the horse. The living man continued to drive the horse forward.
Because they know that on the battlefield, they can only escape danger by gritting their teeth and rushing through the formation. If they stay on the battlefield, they may be hacked to death or shot to death by stray arrows at any time.
After the second wave of cavalry rushed over during the regimental training, the infantry array of the three regiments ran into the Mongolian cavalry head-on. At this time, they were first scattered by the first wave of chain horses, and then were killed by the second wave of wall riding. Many people were left.
Not only were the number of cavalry greatly reduced, but the horses also lost their speed.
Dabu Lai looked at the opposite side with a gloomy face. Today's attack was not going well. It was not at all what he imagined. Ten thousand cavalry rushed away against more than 30,000 Han infantry. They did not expect that the Ming army's chief general actually thought of Lian Lian.
Horses and ropes tied to create a means of wall riding.
As soon as they engaged in the battle, they suffered a big loss. First they were scattered, and then they were killed almost one by one in casualties. In Dab Lai's view, this was a big loss. A qualified
It takes more than ten years to train a cavalryman. It would be a big loss to replace one with these rookies who have put down their hoes.
At this time, three cavalry figures had already rushed behind them. Dabulai looked at the three large square formations. The soldiers were holding Swiss halberds more than three meters long and were walking slowly under the cover of the four-sided shield formation.
.
In the military formation, a carriage pulled a big drum, and several shirtless strong men waved drumsticks and beat violently. The sound of the huge drum made the blood rush. The three regiment-level infantry were square and square, and every three steps forward,
Shouting "Kill!" brought out a shocking momentum.
This is an idea that Yan Yingyuan came up with to encourage soldiers who were going into battle for the first time. Rhythmic shouting in unison can greatly relieve tension.
After Dab Lai bypassed the riding wall as expected, the cavalry launched a large-scale assault and dispersed the infantry behind. At this time, there were three large square formations, with cards on the outside and three rows of Swiss halberds on the inside. In the middle
It is hollow. The officer directs in the middle.
Dab Lai looked at the large phalanx of hedgehogs and porcupines, feeling a bit toothache. The thickly protruding Swiss halberds were like sharp thorns, which greatly restricted the attack of the Mongolian cavalry.
Dab Lai shouted loudly: "Surround them and attack from all sides."
The Mongolian cavalry immediately rushed through the gaps and outside of the three phalanxes, surrounded the three phalanxes on all sides, and started killing on all sides.
Although this style of fighting cannot bring out their advantages, they have lost the most important impact and speed of the cavalry. The battle has become like this, and they can only be surrounded on all sides.
For a time, these team members, who had only undergone three months of training, were under tremendous psychological pressure. They had never been on a battlefield, and the sight of thousands of horses galloping made them tremble and frightened. However, they knew that in this valley,
Escape is unrealistic and impossible. We can only bite the bullet and fight the Mongols.
The soldiers on the outside desperately pressed against the shields, covering themselves from head to toe. The three rows of halberdiers behind them tried their best to assassinate, hack and hook.
Many people were so nervous that their mouths were dry without a drop of saliva, and they stabbed each other mechanically without even checking whether they could hit the opponent.
Although these people were panicking and slashing and stabbing randomly, they also caused great difficulties to the Mongolian cavalry holding scimitars. There were halberds, spear heads, axes, and hooks everywhere shaking, and if you were not careful, you would be killed.
Will be hurt.
They don't have iron armor, they all wear leather armor or even leather robes. Their defense is extremely poor.
Zhang Shun shouted loudly to his brothers in Xiaoqi not to fight independently. At this time, there must be cooperation.
"Stop stabbing randomly. It takes three people to stab one person to achieve victory. You are messing around like this and you won't be able to stab the enemy." Zhang Shun shouted loudly.
The Mongolian cavalry nimbly dodged the infantry's halberds left and right, and also took some time to kill the shield soldiers.
These shield soldiers were not fools. They had already turned sideways and lunged, with their heads retracted behind them. They held on to their shields with all their might and resisted the squeeze of the Mongolian cavalry.
Wang Dahu yelled: "Grandpa is holding them all back. If anyone is pushed by the Tatars, I will chop him down." He is Xiaoqi, and their Xiaoqi is made up of shield soldiers.
Yan Yingyuan, with his 700 soldiers and retainers, as well as three cavalry regiments, passed through the formation and let out a long breath. At this time, he finally put his heart into his stomach.
"Everyone turn around and fight back. Blow the trumpet and let the last four infantry regiments advance as well, and surround me with these 10,000 Mongolian cavalry."
After Yan Yingyuan gave the order, he immediately led the cavalry to attack back.
