Chapter 406 God Soldiers Against Heaven Soldiers (2)

The Mongolian light cavalry soon rushed within three hundred steps of the Qing army. Snowflakes were flying, and snow waves rolled towards the Qing army formation.

"Let me go!" Kong Youde ordered.

One three-pound field cannon spit out flames, and white smoke rose up. Dozens of shells roared into the snow waves in front of them. At least one hundred Mongolian light cavalry were hit by shells, and people and horses were smashed into pieces of flesh and blood. Fortunately, the snow eased the energy of the shells, and the shells would no longer bounce after landing, which slowed down the lethality of the cannon.

This loss is just a drop in the bucket for the tens of thousands of Mongolian cavalry charging. The Mongolian cavalry who were not shot continued to gallop and charge towards the Qing army formation. Of course, the Mongolian cavalry could not charge head-on. As long as they rushed within twenty steps, they would spread out to both sides and shoot with bows. Regardless of whether they could penetrate the armor or not, they could harass the opponent.

When the Mongols rushed to a hundred and fifty steps away from the Qing army formation, the archers of the Eight Banners pulled their bows and arrows, diagonally facing the sky at a 45-degree angle, and shot round after round of light arrows.

Although the direct shooting distance of the strong bow of the Man Eight Banners is only fifty steps away, the range can reach an astonishing 150 steps when shooting light arrows! These light arrows are of course useless to the army with thick armor, but the Mongolian light cavalry has almost no armor. Round after round of arrow rain fell, and the charge Mongolian light cavalry were shot one after another.

The Mongolians continued to charge forward. At this moment, the nine-headed bird muskets and light Folang aircraft of the Wuzhenchaoha camp of the Qing army started. The sound of guns roared and the smoke filled the guns. A burst of blood mist rose from the rushing Mongolian cavalry crowd. At least hundreds of people were killed by the Wuzhenchaoha camp, and some even had their horses and horses.

While Wuzhen Chaoha Camp opened fire, the Korqin Mongolian cavalry dispersed to the two wings, and in a clamp shape, they deviated to the side and back of the Mongolian cavalry. In this way, the Mongolian light cavalry could not use the roundabout harassment tactics they were good at. Once they dispersed to the two wings, they would hit the Korqin cavalry, and then they would withstand the attacks of Wuzhen Chaoha Camp and the archers of the Manchurian Eight Banners.

But Dorgon was not satisfied with defeating the Mongolian cavalry only. What he wanted was to annihilate as many Mongolians as possible. As long as the Mongols of the Khalkha Khan suffered too much loss, it would naturally cause conflicts between this fragile alliance. At that time, the Mongol alliance would be defeated without conquering the enemy, and then Ezhe would only have the only way to surrender to the Qing Dynasty.

"Aliha Chaoha Camp, prepare to attack!" The Bayala soldiers beside Dorgon shook the flag.

Dorgon and Yuetuo's central army's flag were arranged neatly, with heavy cavalry both men and horses waiting for the heavy armor, and rushed out immediately after a command. As long as the heavy cavalry rushed into the light cavalry formation, they could slaughter Mongolian light cavalry like killing chickens and dogs.

There were only fifty steps left between the two sides. The Mongolian light cavalry had taken out their cavalry bows, aimed at the sky, and shot a row of light arrows at a forty-five-degree angle.

Tens of thousands of Mongolian light cavalry shot out dense arrows, like locusts flying in the sky, piercing the head of Wu Zhenchao Ha Camp.

"Rise the shield!" Kong Youde shouted.

Rows of shields were raised, and most of the arrows shot by the Mongols fell, and most of them were blocked by the shields. Only a few arrows were stabbed on the Wuzhen Chaoha soldiers. However, the Han Eight Banners soldiers were also wearing thick armor. Although the armor was not as good as the Eight Banners, it was still no problem to block the Mongols' light arrows. Only a few unlucky people were shot into the door and fell down screaming. And the Ahas behind the Wuzhen Chaoha camp were not so lucky. The arrows fell and passed through the gaps in the shields. As long as they shot Ahas, Ahas who were shot in the arrow immediately screamed and fell down.

From fifty steps to twenty steps, for the light cavalry, in just a few breaths, the Mongolians had already replaced the heavy arrow with a round of light arrows.

The sound of the bowstrings kept ringing, and one direct feather arrow after another pierced into the Wuzhen Chaoha camp formation. The Mongolians shot very accurately. Many arrows passed through the gaps in the shield and shot into the Wuzhen Chaoha soldiers' faces. Only a row of screams were heard, and many Qing soldiers covered their faces and fell down.

The Qing army's bird guns fired and counterattacked. The guns roared, and the Mongolians fell down from their horses one after another like dumplings.

"Scatter!" 100 households shouted.

The Mongolian cavalry spread to both sides, revealing the cavalry archers behind them, and the feather arrows pierced into the Qing army formation in rows. The losses of Wuzhenchao's camp suddenly increased.

Wu Zhenchao Ha Camp counterattacked with bird guns, and the nine-headed bird musket filled with shotguns, the tiger squat cannon and the Folang machine cannon spewed out flames, and countless Mongolian cavalry fell off the horse. In the attack of bows and arrows and firearms, the Qing army with shields and armor obviously took advantage.

However, the Qing army did not expect that the Mongolian light cavalry had a backup plan behind them.

Behind the Mongolian light cavalry, follow the Turkic Cave God Cavalry cavalry, this is the Mongols' trump card.

The Mongolian light cavalry scattered to both sides encountered the Korchin cavalry surrounded by two wings. Both sides shot against each other with bows on the horse's back. The sound of bowstrings kept ringing, and soldiers from both sides fell one after another. The Mongolians who shot arrows drew out their scimitars and rushed towards their opponents. The two cavalry collided together, and many people on both sides fell off their horses.

"Aliha Chao Ha Camp, attack!" Dorgon yelled.

"Kill!" The Qing army's eight banner heavy cavalry, who had been waiting for the battle, shouted in unison and rushed out.

These most elite heavy cavalrymen of the Aliha Chaoha camp were each wearing triple thick armor, and the war horses were also protected by vests. The war horses they rode were all the best Wuzhumuqin horses or Jinzhou horses. Accompanied by the earth-shaking shouts, the heavy cavalry of the Manchu Eight Banners slowly rushed out of the formation and rushed towards the Mongols, and the speed of the war horses gradually increased.

The Mongolian light cavalry, who were shooting arrows in detour, were blocked by the Korqin cavalry and could not revolve for a while. The Mongolian cavalry in the middle could not disperse at all. Seeing the Qing heavy cavalry rushing towards him, the Mongolians shot arrows with their cavalry bows, but the arrows hit the heavy cavalry and were bounced to the ground like they hit a stone. The heavy cavalry looked nothing and continued to rush towards the Mongols. The horses quickly raised their speed and crashed into the formation of the Mongolian light cavalry, like a huge hammer hitting an egg. The Mongolian light cavalry that was hit fell from the horse's back one after another and was stepped into meat mud.

The formation of the heavy cavalry of the Eight Banners was dense, and there was almost no gap between the side-by-side war horses and the war horses. It was like a moving steel city wall crushing over. The Mongolians had no way to hide. They were knocked back and stepped onto the meat mud. The short Mongolian horse fell to the ground, and the tall Wuzhumuqin horse trampled directly over the fallen Mongolian horse, trampling the Mongolians and even the people and horses into meat mud.

A Mongolian gave up his bow and arrow, drew his scimitar and slashed at the Jurchen heavy cavalry that was rushing towards him. Just before he was knocked away, the scimitar in his hand slashed the heavy cavalry on the heavy cavalry, but the scimitar cut out Mars on the heavy armor. Then the Mongolians were knocked back and flew backwards, and the unscathed heavy cavalry of the Manchu Eight Banners continued to advance.

For a time, the formation of Mongolian light cavalry was in chaos and fled in all directions.

Just after the formation of the Mongolian light cavalry dispersed, the Qing army heavy cavalry found several camels behind. The knights riding on the camel's back drove the camels and rushed towards them.

A Qing army Niu Luezhen who led the team sneered repeatedly: "Just relying on a few camels, I still want to stop the advance of my Eight Banners Heavy Cavalry?"

A few camels may knock down a few war horses when they hit, but heavy cavalry are arranged in densely, and at most a few cavalry will be lost, which will allow all the opponent's camel soldiers to submerge!

At this moment, the Qing soldiers only heard the camel soldiers on the opposite side shouting: "An, Ah Hu, Ah Keba..."

"What are they shouting?" A soldier of the Eight Banners felt something strange.
