Ming Taizi's Total War

Chapter 115

Chapter 115

Even Li Chun, the head of the Leaving Regiment, felt uneasy. In order to appease the morale of the troops, he said to the regiments on the two wings, "Daliushu Regiment and Anxiang Regiment, approach our troops and gather in formation."

Seeing tens of thousands of people crowded together, Li Chun felt relieved. He thought, no matter what the opponent did, they would not be able to easily defeat them. Even if ten thousand pigs were put here for them to capture, they would still be able to catch them. You have to catch it all day and night.

Soon, Han Guang and the others came to 200 meters in front of the regiment training armed position. This is already the maximum shooting distance of crossbows and firecrackers. The general army will charge at this distance.

"Brothers, go for me!" Han Guang pulled out the sword from his waist and pointed at the team leader in front of him.

He didn't dare to rush up to fight, for fear of being injured or even killed, so he hid behind and gave orders to let the soldiers go up and fight.

However, the Qing army never defaulted on their salaries, and the spoils were generously given, so these soldiers obeyed Han Guang's orders very much.

At the same time that Han Guang commanded 500 people from the headquarters to charge, the general officer of the Green Battalion also ordered his 3000 troops to charge.

For a time, 500 people overwhelmed them with overwhelming force.

Seeing the imposing Qing army in front of him, Li Chun said to his soldiers, "Hold it, hold it up." He was very worried that his army would be crushed by the enemy's charge. After all, they were just group training, not real soldiers. army.

It's a pity that they come here for whatever they are afraid of. The green battalion soldiers are experienced soldiers, and they show their superb military quality when they meet the enemy.

The regiment trainers originally wanted to use spears to form a steel forest to block the Qing army's attack, but they never imagined that the Qing army's spears were longer and sharper than them.

The green battalion soldiers stood outside the gun forest where the regiment practiced, stabbing hard, and each shot could take a life away.

On the other hand, the training soldiers of the regiment did not dare to step forward because of fear. If they dared to fight desperately, they could step forward and stab each other with spears at the green camp soldiers, and maybe they could exchange one life for another.

But standing in place like this, passively defending them, they could only be killed like scarecrows.

Soon, some regiments couldn't stand it anymore. In a short period of time, hundreds of brothers died on the front line of hundreds of meters. This made them unbearable who had never seen cruel war.

Many people threw down their weapons and wanted to run back. Unfortunately, the crowd was too dense, and they had no room to retreat.

The green battalion soldiers saw a loophole in the formation of the regiment training, and refused to let go of this great opportunity, so many sword players took the opportunity to kill them.

They used their big knives to cut off the spears of Tuan Lian, and desperately crowded into the depths of Tuan Lian's formation, hoping to give enough fighting space to the brothers behind.

In this way, with just a face-to-face effort, the regiment training in Yangwu County showed signs of failure.

However, relying on the huge numerical advantage, they could barely hold off for a while. Human physical strength is limited after all. No matter how strong these green soldiers are in combat, they will be exhausted after killing seven or eight people alone.

But Li Chun forgot that there were tens of thousands of Qing troops behind him, and there were even more terrifying Eight Banners vests. Just when Li Chun's regiment training and the battle with the green camp reached a fever pitch, they had quietly arrived on Li Chun's two wings.

The Anxiang Regiment and the Daliushu Regiment had hundreds of Eight Banners vests cruising on the outside respectively. From time to time, they came to the regiment's formation and shot two arrows, and then retreated.

But they are not in a hurry to launch an attack, because they are looking for loopholes, although the Eight Banners vest is tall and powerful, and it is the most elite part of the Eight Banners Army.

But no matter how elite and powerful they are, they are still made of meat, and there are still two holes when they hit the spear.

The trainees of the regiment watched their companions being shot one by one, and the deadly arrow fell on their heads without knowing why. The feeling of death looming was not pleasant.

Finally, a man with poor mental capacity broke down. He yelled and put down his spear, left the army formation, and wanted to run back to his home. He had had enough of all this.

Once there is a deserter, there will be a string of deserters, and finally a chain reaction will be formed, and everyone will escape. This is why the army's attitude towards deserters is only one word, kill.

Soon, a large hole appeared in the formation of the Daliushu Group and the Anxiang Group, like a pile of sand that had been dug down, and quicksand flowed continuously through it.

For the Eight Banners vest, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Even if you don't wield a saber or ride a gun, as long as you sneak into the regiment's army formation on horseback, they can collapse.

Of course, the battle-tested Eight Banners soldiers would not let go of this opportunity. They immediately rushed in non-stop, and coordinated with the frontal Green Battalion infantry to attack, faintly embracing the Yangwu County regiment training commanded by Li Chun.

But they didn't need to be surrounded anymore, and when the Eight Banners soldiers entered the depths of the formation, the training regiments had completely collapsed.

Discarded helmets and weapons were everywhere, and countless regiments drilled like panicked pigs.

As the saying goes, the army is defeated like a mountain, and the eight or nine thousand regiment trainees who were killed suddenly collapsed, and even the soldiers around Li Chun were infected by this terrible situation.

They lost their fighting spirit, so they could only drag Li Chun to escape to a safe place, no matter how hoarse Li Chun's orders were, they would not be moved.

"Everyone stop, everyone stop, set up formation, stop the Qing soldiers for me, stop them for me." Li Chunqi yelled on horseback.

It's a pity that no one listened to his order, everyone was running for their lives, and they were running frantically for their own lives.

Seeing this, Li Chun had no choice but to leave the battlefield under the coercion of his own soldiers.

Some small groups practiced to resist for a while, but when they saw Li Chun leaving, they followed suit.

It is really embarrassing that such a large group of armed forces was easily solved by the Qing soldiers with [-] troops and two sticks of kung fu.

After the battle, Tong Mengchun left only a small number of people to clean up the battlefield, and then led a large force to the southeast of Fengqiu.

On the way, he encountered the Yanjin County regiment training armed forces again, and the result was naturally the same. The Yanjin County regiment training armed forces were killed and defeated.

Tong Mengchun's soldiers only killed 2000 or 1000 people, and they dispersed. However, the Eight Banners and Green Camp's vests killed more than [-] people in pursuit.

It wasn't until they met Yue Qijie in Fengqiu County that they encountered real resistance.

Although Yue Qijie was a civil servant, he also fought in the last years of the Ming Dynasty when peasant uprisings and rebellions were frequent.

Perhaps there is no way to compare with a family of generals, or a general who has experienced many battles, but it is not a problem at all to stand alone and lead the army alone.
