Chapter 183: Emperor Chongzhen who personally cut people
The three thousand cavalry of the Xibe tribe who received the order of Chongzhen shouted, then rushed out to the direction of the Haoqite tribe's ranch. While moving, they gradually opened some distance.
The dozens of riders who were leading the way did not hold a saber, but instead held a lasso. Not far from the fence of the ranch, he threw the lasso that had already shaken and turned around out of his hand, and directly pulled it to the fence of the ranch. Then he pulled the reins and ran to both sides.
When the cavalry in the back team saw that the fence was dragged away, they all knocked the horse's belly hard and rushed forward with speed.
At this time, Chongzhen could no longer suppress the emotion in his heart that he could not tell whether it was excitement or something. He copied the saber specially prepared for him from the inner factory guard next to him, and suddenly kicked the horse's belly and galloped forward.
The unbearable feeling in my original heart, or the discomfort of seeing many killings, had long been thrown out of the sky with the scene of large cavalry charging and rushing.
Seeing Emperor Chongzhen personally charge, the inner factory guards such as Fang Zhenghua were following behind him and around him, and followed closely.
The Haoqite tribe is not much stronger than the Sunit tribe. It is also a tribe of about 5,000 people, and it is so hard to die. The cavalry in the tribe followed Lin Danhan to Xuanfu. What's the use of less than 500 cavalry left behind?
Seeing that the people who surrounded his tribe had no intention of talking, they dragged the fence and rushed in, they knew that the remaining cavalry, who were unable to escape today, were also ruthless. They first shot out a wave of arrows in order to stop it slightly, and then kicked the horse's belly hard, hoping that the horse's speed could be raised within this short distance.
But unexpectedly, the rain of arrows from the cavalry left behind by Haoqite's troops did not play any role at all. Chongzhen, who had long made up his mind to win over the cavalry of Xibe, had already armed the three thousand cavalry to his teeth, but everyone was fully equipped with armor and helmets.
Moreover, the distance between the remaining cavalry of Haoqite's army was farther away. Therefore, when the arrow rain fell, except for the four or five riders who were unlucky and were thrown out, the others did not even react, but kept shouting and waving their sabers to charge forward.
Just as the wave of arrow rains fell, the cavalry of both sides had already begun formal contact.
The cavalry hedging is actually not as shown in the movie. It is slashing and slashing, hiding in the stirrups or other things to do some fun. Both sides raise the sabers or long spears in their hands to the right side of their bodies. As long as they rely on the acceleration brought by the high-speed running of the war horses on both sides, they can use the sabers to cut the opponent's body. If they slash, they will give the opponent time to avoid it because of the back and forth.
When the three thousand cavalry of the Xibe tribe charged, they had already formed an arrow formation consciously, colliding with the arrow formation of the cavalry left by the Haoqite tribe.
The sound of bones breaking when the war horses on both sides collided, the inaudible sound of the saber slashing the muscle tissue of the body, the howling of the injured cavalry, and the muffled sound of the falling cavalry when the horse was stepped on by the horse, playing a prelude to the harvest of life together.
What will happen if there are less than five hundred cavalrymen against the three thousand cavalry who have been prepared?
Both sides are arrow arrays, that is, triangular arrays. The more people they go, the more people they come from. The advantage of this formation is that their rear wings and wings will always be protected by their own people, so they can charge forward with confidence.
However, the requirements for this formation are also very high. If the number of people on both sides is similar, it will evolve into a cavalry battle in later TV series or movies. The two sides intersect the horses and kill each other with their swords.
However, if the number of people on both sides is very different, then one side of the number of people will often suffer. When the arrow formation is consumed, it is very easy to be surrounded by the more crowded side.
This is the situation now. Before the formation was reached, the arrow formation of the remaining cavalry of Haoqite's troops could no longer be maintained. The arrow part of the entire formation had long been dead and could not die anymore. The cavalry left without the arrow part, which was responsible for the charge, had about 400 cavalry left. However, the cavalry of the Xibe tribe suffered little loss. Thanks to Emperor Chongzhen's heavily-paid armor protection, few people were caught in the hedge just now.
The Xibe cavalry, who had penetrated the cavalry of the Hoqite tribe, turned around the horse's head, kowtowed the horse's belly and came back. In this way, the remaining cavalry of the Hoqite tribe formed a circle.
The cavalry of the Xibe tribe originally planned to use this circle to shoot and kill them with a siege tactic, but no one expected that Emperor Chongzhen also rushed over at this time.
Emperor Chongzhen, who was a rookie on the battlefield, did he know the siege and shooting tactics of these grassland cavalrymen? Emperor Chongzhen, who only knew how to cut people with a knife, relied on his preparations to the teeth, but directly held up his sabre and killed him.
At this time, Wanyan Cheng, who turned his horse's head, saw Emperor Chongzhen killing in, so he had to put down the bow and arrow in his hand, draw out the saber again, and also kill in. At this point, the originally planned siege tactic was completely finished, and was disturbed by Chongzhen, a novice, into a scene of fighting.
Emperor Chongzhen, who didn't know how much trouble he had caused, was excited at this time. Perhaps every man had a bloodthirsty murderous intent in his heart. Even though he was hiding well in normal times, once he arrived on the battlefield, he would be completely stimulated by the stimulation of the large amount of adrenaline secretion.
This was how Emperor Chongzhen of Xiaobai was like this. Seeing that there was a cavalry in front of him, Emperor Chongzhen, who was overjoyed, raised his saber and slashed it down.
Morigen is a famous archer in the Hoqite tribe. Even though he is not known as the archer and Zhebe, his extraordinary archery skills still make him enjoy a great reputation in the Hoqite tribe.
The tribe was surrounded by anger enough, and the bastards who surrounded their tribe came from. They were covered with iron or steel armor. They were covered with iron or steel armor with one knife, and they couldn't break the other's armor at all. Now it's even better. The little face in front of them, who was not twenty years old, looked like a Han man, raised his saber to him?
Mo Rigen, who felt that he had been greatly humiliated, was extremely angry and lost his mind. He waved his sabre at the sabre that he swung over to Emperor Chongzhen.
As long as he has strong strength, he can usually cut the opponent's weapons into two pieces. Then he will kill this young man with his backhand, so that he will know that Mr. Mo Rigen is not easy to mess with.
But Mo Rigen ignored one thing. There is something like cutting off the opponent's weapons with great force or extremely fast speed, but the premise is that it is based on the similar quality of the weapons on both sides.
How could the sabre in Emperor Chongzhen compare with his equipment? Every blade of the sabre in the bright silver chain mail on Chongzhen's body was worn by the skilled craftsmen of the Great Wall, polished them with pieces of refined steel, and mixed with golden wire and made of snake skin of alien iron wire. Even if Chongzhen stood on the ground and asked him to cut them, he might not be able to cut them badly.
As for the saber in Chongzhen's hand, the whole body was made of 100-fen steel. A thin hemp rope was wrapped around the hilt to absorb sweat, ensuring that it would not fall off the hands or slip off.
Therefore, as soon as the saber in Mo Rigen touched the saber in Chongzhen's hand, it was like sheep oil hitting a hot knife, and it was very happy to break it into two pieces. Mo Rigen, who had been dotted for a long time, was shocked and had no time to think about it, so he turned to the left and hid.
If it were someone else, he would have been chopped down long ago. After all, Chongzhen was still a little novice. Chongzhen, who was surprised that the quality of the opponent's weapons was going to avoid it, saw that Mo Rigen was about to avoid it, so he slashed Mo Rigen's thigh with his back hand.
This time, Mo Rigen's thigh was cut with a deep bone-sighted wound. It was still cast and then on the body of the war horse under Mo Rigen's crotch. The blade was so deep that the ribs of the war horse could be seen.
The war horse was cut with such a cut. With such a madness, the man with the front hoof stood up and rushed forward with a neigh. Mo Rigen had no choice but to endure the pain and hugged the war horse's neck tightly, hoping that he would not fall off the war horse.
At this time, the eunuch in the inner factory following him saw the opportunity and slashed at the horse's head with a knife. The headless war horse rushed forward two steps before falling to the ground. Mo Rigen also fell off his horse and was trampled to death by other war horses.
Chongzhen didn't know these things at all. At this time, Chongzhen was ignoring the other cavalry of Haoqite.
Fang Zhenghua, who was secretly complaining in his heart, had to keep up with him. The emperor wanted to cut people with a knife himself. What can he do? He could only let the emperor cut, but he had to ensure the safety of the emperor to prevent someone from being injured and having such an emperor would be bad for eight lifetimes!
Chongzhen cut down less than ten people, to be precise, there were only four or five cavalrymen in Haoqite's army that Emperor Chongzhen personally killed, and the others were all cut by the eunuchs of the inner factory after being injured.
According to later historical records, "The emperor conquered Mongolia, and the Pinghao Qite tribe was beheaded by five people." It was these five people that made the historians of the Ming Dynasty quarrel in later generations. One side believed that since a certain tribe was pacified, it was impossible to kill only five people. The other side believed that the great Emperor Chongzhen mobilized many troops but only killed five people from the Haoqite tribe, and could not be called Pinghao Qite tribe at all.
How did Emperor Chongzhen record it? He was not interested in knowing it. Even if he was recorded as a person like Jie Zhou or Wu Chuo, he didn't know what he could do after his death. It's important to kill people now.
In fact, it was said that killing people was important, but it didn't take long. In less than half a stick of incense, the three thousand cavalry of the Xibe tribe strangled the hundreds of cavalry left by the Haoqite tribe, and rushed towards the herdsmen in the Haoqite tribe's pasture.
After less than a cup of tea, Wanyan Cheng returned with blood on his back: "I heard from Your Majesty that there is no more living in Haoqite's army."
