Han’s Son is Not a Slave

Chapter 587: Unicorn Army Flag

Immediately before the Qing Bing's long knife slashed down, he felt that something had been stabbed between his chest and abdomen, and then there was a severe pain, and a spear pierced straight through his ribs. {166 There is no pop-up window in the library} The Qing soldier screamed and subconsciously swung his knife towards the spear, but he couldn't reach the Ming soldier who stabbed him. Go deeper into the handle. The pain prevented the Qing soldier from waving the arm holding the knife. His body kept swaying, and finally he got off the horse with a roar of pain, and landed heavily with a "thump", but he couldn't lift any soil, only the icy ground was blown away. Smashing him hurts even more. Others are not dead, but it is no different from dead, because of the spear on his body, he may not even struggle. He could only keep wailing there, but in the end, he no longer thought about any enemies or future, but only his relatives far away in the north.

A small-scale battle with less than a hundred troops on both sides of the Ming and Qing Dynasties is being staged fiercely. The sunset on the west end in the distance lazily sprinkled its last afterglow, falling on people, but it was not warm, but cold. There was no wind, and the gunpowder smoke caused by the firing of the fire gun made the sight of the Ming and Qing sides who were fighting was extremely poor, so that they could only judge whether they were enemies or companions by their voices.

The Ming army not only attacked people, but also attacked horses. There were several war horses stabbed by the spear, and the pained warhorse stood up and threw the Qing soldiers on their backs who were about to slash the Ming army to the ground. For a time, the neighing of war horses and the screams of people resounded above this small mining field.

Wei Zhong swung his long saber vigorously, and while slashing at a saber cut by a Qing soldier, he slashed towards a Qing soldier with a spear on the opposite side. He shouted loudly, and the long knife in his hand slashed fiercely on the opponent's shoulder and arm, slashing the other side's right arm with the spear in his hand and flying away. The Qing soldier, who lost his right arm, was stunned at first, then screamed heartbreakingly, and finally rushed towards Wei Zhong frantically. He tried to grab Wei Zhong with his still left hand, and subconsciously wanted to use him. with his right hand to choke the opponent's neck. But there was only blood spurting from his arms, but there was nothing for him to stretch out.

Wei Zhong easily kicked the Qing soldier, who was still fighting fiercely without his arms, to the ground, and then raised his long knife diagonally, severing the opponent's neck in one fell swoop. He calmed down, surrounded by the enemy and us who were fighting. Because of giving up the charge, the Ming army under the horse had to face the superiority of the remaining Qing soldiers after killing and wounding a large number of Qing soldiers in the early stage. As the battle continued, the Ming army began to suffer casualties, but these casualties were still cost-effective and acceptable compared to the Qing army.

Cao Rong was a little shocked. He did not expect that the combat effectiveness of the Ming army was so high that half of his men had been killed or injured, while the Ming army only suffered more than ten casualties. Although this casualty was not as great as the casualties caused to the Qing army by the Ming army carrying the banner "Qi" in the afternoon, it had already made Cao Rong unbelievable and terrified.

If it is said that the Ming army in the afternoon was only because the weapons were too long and difficult to deal with, and the formation was extremely cunning, the Qing army who had never seen this style of play could not adapt to it, which led to the Ming army taking fewer hits. The more you defeat, the more embarrassed you will flee south. But the weapons used by the Ming army in front of them are really ordinary, and the equipment is not much better than that of the Qing army, but they fought desperately and caused huge casualties to the Qing army, which made Cao Rong feel incredible. If he remembered correctly, this For more than ten days, he seems to have been chasing and killing these Ming troops, and they have never tried to turn around to face them, so there is no reason for this Ming army to suddenly burst out with such strong courage and fighting power. Logically, they should still be far away. Just look out for the wind and run away.

However, the fact is that the Ming army, who had been expelled by the Qing army for more than half a month, not only returned, but also showed a combat effectiveness far exceeding that of the Qing army.

What the **** is going on here?

Cao Rong was confused, and he regretted that he should not have asked himself to visit the horse. Half of his future is good, but if he lost his life for this, it would not be worth it.

Cao Rong would not have thought that the embarrassment of this Ming army in the past was only because their generals became selfish. But for the courage of the army, the officials who do not want to fight, how can the soldiers below fight to the death. Of course, if you put yourself in his shoes, Cao Rong would understand why a capable army suddenly couldn't fight. If his father Cao Xiyuan was here, I'm afraid he would have guessed more, because when he was outside the customs, Cao Xiyuan had seen a lot more about how the generals of the Ming army for self-interest sat and watched the annihilation of friendly forces without sending a single soldier to rescue. Only when the victory is certain, will the self-interested Ming generals flock to get a piece of the pie, otherwise, they will just watch from afar.

However, the combat effectiveness shown by these Ming troops was by no means as strong as Cao Rong thought, but they were supposed to be like this, or they played a normal level. It's just that in the past, because they were afraid, they didn't dare to advance in every battle, so they were defeated repeatedly, so the Qing army looked down on it, thinking that the Ming army was so weak. But now they are not afraid, and the reason why they are not afraid is that they have witnessed how the Manchurian soldiers were tortured and how the Taiping army was victorious one after another. Just like the Manchus, Zhou Shixiang also used his victory to stimulate everyone in the Taiping army, and stimulated those Han people who were originally the Ming army, then the Qing army, and finally became the Taiping army, so that they no longer fear the so-called Great Qing soldiers. If there is no fear, they will naturally not be afraid; if they are not afraid, they will fight, and the result is just like what Cao Rong saw~www.NovelMTL.com~ Facts have proved that as long as the officials are willing to fight, the officers and soldiers of the fifth town will fight. will not be afraid of the Qing army.

Wei Zhong found Cao Rong in the official uniform of the leader from the chaotic crowd. He charged towards Cao Rong with a knife, but the sound of a horn was heard by his ears, followed by more hooves from the south. The Qing army came to reinforce the troops, and about a hundred cavalrymen rushed over from the front of Songjiawolou. Behind them, more cavalry and infantry were rushing.

Wei Zhong knew that they could not fight, they had to withdraw immediately, or they would all die here.

"Go on horseback!"

Without Wei Zhong's order, the remaining officers and soldiers of the cavalry team also knew that they could not afford to fight. From the frantic hacking to the sudden retreat, the movements of the Ming army were almost only a few blinks, and the Qing army did not respond. Cao Rong was also stunned. When he reacted, the Ming army cavalry had already rushed to the war horse. The warhorse ran north.

"Chase, catch up with them!"

"Never let them run away, hurry up!"

The arrival of reinforcements revived Cao Rong's courage. He had lost so many of his men, how could he let the Ming army run away so easily. He roared loudly and led the rest of his subordinates to chase after him. When he was chasing two miles away, the Qing army in front suddenly stopped, and then quickly turned the horse's head and ran to the rear.

Cao Rong also ran back on horseback, because the Ming army also came to reinforce the army in front of them, and thousands of Ming troops drove over under the guidance of the "Kirin" flag.

It was hot, almost to catch a draft, so I went to take a cold shower. Bones smoke, my wife and son are sleeping in the air-conditioned room, and I can't smoke, so I can only smoke in the living room, otherwise I can't sleep in the room, and the result is heat. (To be continued.)
