Chapter 1948: Tribulus terrestris protects the Chinese from passing customs
On the bright side, the Yeerqiang people have obvious advantages. They wait for work with ease, have a large number of people, and spread out wider. They are still cavalry, condescending and completely mastering the offensive and defensive initiative of the battlefield.
Uygur didn't see any possibility of failure, he ordered the troops to turn into a full-scale offensive!
The "Woo" bugler blew his cheeks and blew the thick and dull big horns, and then the sturdy drummers beat the drums. Amidst the rumbling of the drums, the west wind on the battlefield was slanting, flying sand and rocks, in a deserted place. In the wilderness, I saw smoke filled with people and horses like tides.
The war horse speeded up gradually, and had already swooped toward the Ming army. The rumbling of horseshoes sounded like thunder on a sunny day, everyone's eyes widened, and their spirits became highly nervous.
The two armies went to war very quickly, and there was absolutely no exchange of people to shout. At this point, there is nothing to say, the only way to see each other is force!
Before the Yeerqiang people approached, the Ming army made a first move and fired a rifled rifle at them.
Far away!
Under heavy pressure, the snipers played very accurately and did not waste any opportunities.
So the cavalry fell one after another, and most of the shots were war horses, although the horses
The horses pounced on the ground, and some blocked the way and tripped the cavalry behind.
But more cavalry detoured by. They were quite brave. They didn't lower their bodies, but started shooting arrows when they got close.
If you meet on a narrow road, the brave wins, and you will be killed if you persuade you.
Retreat is a bad strategy, there is a way out for fighting!
Uygul was courageous and strategic. He learned in detail about the battle between the Hami Army and the Ming Army. He was disdainful when he heard that the Hami Army was afraid of the firearms of the Ming Army and immersed in the assault.
While bowing your head can reduce the area of the shot, the area of the horse is indispensable.
On the contrary, raising the head to shoot an arrow actually increases the area of the shot.
When Uygur ordered to approach, everyone raised their heads and let go of arrows.
Speaking of the Yeerqiang people are still good, even if the bullets flew by their side, knocking down a few from time to time, but they still straightened their bodies on the saddles and shot arrows.
"Hu Hu Hu..." The bowstring rang loudly!
Arrows flew down and whizzed down. Some people in the Ming army were hit by arrows, some were blocked by shields, and some were protected by their helmets and armor. The screams of those who hit the arrows continued to scream, so the medical staff in the army Get busy.
Severe on-site treatment, less serious delay to the backstage.
When they got closer, the Ming army’s muskets, artillery, mobile flying thunder cannons and barrels fired together, squeezing the Yarkans severely, causing them to suffer heavy casualties.
But soon, as the firepower of the Ming Army weakened, it took time to reload, even with three strikes, it also depends on the situation.
Just as water can extinguish a fire, but when the fire is strong, the water is evaporated.
The cavalry attacked frantically, and the distance between the two sides was shortening sharply at a visible speed! Their horses have entered a high-speed charge stage, which is equivalent to the speed of a human trapeze, ten meters per second, and when they charge, they can kill with nothing but their sleeves!
They were pressed down by the torrent of mudslides, like the sky and the earth cracking, and their momentum was terrifying to the extreme.
The Ming army's battlefield was not solid, its firepower was insufficient, and things happened suddenly. Without deep ditch and thick bases, it would be too late to even block the carbine. Is there anything else that can stop the enemy?
I saw some members of the Ming Army sitting on the ground with their bayonets pointing upwards, but can their thin formation be able to withstand the galloping horses?
Kill the Han dog!
At this terrible moment, the officers and soldiers of the Ming Army didn't rush, and threw out dark things, iron briers!
Tribulus terrestris, a kind of military iron spiked spreading obstacle in ancient China, is also known as Tribulus terrestris. It has 4 protruding iron thorns, several inches in length. Wherever it hits the ground, there is a thorn facing upward, and the thorn tip is like a herb. "Tribulus", hence the name. In ancient wars, iron briers were scattered on the ground to **** the enemy's actions.
This kind of thing is exactly the urgent chapter to deal with war horses. It is no stranger to Chinese soldiers. For example, in the twelfth year of Jiading in the Southern Song Dynasty (1219), the golden soldiers attacked Zaoyang and the Song Jianghu re-xing. , The golden man rushed to the tribulus ten and seven eight", which means that the Song army threw out the iron tribulus, and the golden cavalry who rushed were unlucky for most of the centaur.
The Ming dynasty army used iron tribulus extensively. In Qi Jiguang’s army, each rattan player and player "brought ten tribulus each with six consecutive strings", which was convenient for field camps.
Even the Ming Army warships were loaded with a large amount of iron briers, 1,000 large ships and 800 medium-sized ships. When fighting, throwing at the enemy ship, making it difficult for the enemy to move and fight on board.
Iron Tribulus seems to be simple. Chinese people use it a lot and foreigners use it less, because in ancient times only the Chinese were able to cast iron in large quantities!
From ancient times to the present, when it comes to steel production, there are only two players in the world, one is China and the other is a country other than China, called "foreign."
Even if aliens come to play steel, they will be knocked out by the Chinese.
The total output of steel in China now exceeds that of foreign countries. Due to Chinese smelting technology, the iron tribulus used by the army is tough, light and easy to carry, and even "excellent". Two small blood grooves are opened on the side of each spike. , Convenient for bleeding.
A large amount of iron brier was thrown in front of the Yeerqiang people, all those things in front of them made their eyes burst open.
Even if they hadn't seen iron tribulus before, but seeing their shiny tips and unkind looks, they also understood their role.
The cavalry rushing forward hurriedly reined in their horses, trying to turn to avoid the gadgets, and some galloped their horses, trying to jump over them.
No time!
Like a soldier entering a dangerous pass, a horse enters a narrow road, a war horse is like an arrow from a string, and a horse's hoof is heavily on the iron brier!
The sharp spike pierced the horseshoe, passed through the **** layer of the horseshoe, and reached the flesh and blood of the horse. The pain caused them to fall one by one in front of the Ming army!
When some war horses fell to the ground, large tracts of mud and sand were splashed, and they clanged on the armor of the Chinese, and the skin and flesh were painful, which shows that their momentum is fierce.
There were very few cavalry that could rush into the Ming army group, and they were quickly killed. Many horses fell. The Ming army quickly slaughtered the horses and used the "horse guard wall" to shoot at the Yeerqiang people.
The Yarkans cannot break through!
Some of them are so anxious that some people continue to test ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ and many people are shooting arrows at the Chinese.
"Huhuhu..." Random arrows were shot away, and many Ming troops were hit by arrows.
But what they didn't expect was that firing arrows in this way was equivalent to using cavalry as infantry, and firing against a Chinese infantry with full capabilities?
That's looking for death!
They kept falling down, and soon turned into a one-sided attack by the Ming army.
Seeing that the situation is not good, the Yeerqiang people did not retreat, they all charged with horses, just like gamblers, throwing everything.
This is right. Maybe they will win in a quarter of an hour, and in turn will hang the Ming army.
Some cavalry without horses simply rushed over with their looped legs. They got close and rushed to the "War Horse Guard Wall"!
"Kill! Kill! Kill..." There were crazy shouts between the two armies, and all kinds of noise on the battlefield were mixed together, and there was a hustle and bustle.
