Chapter 103
~~~~~~~
These dozen Han flag soldiers moved very quickly, with a very clear goal, which was to rush towards the center of the snow wall, where Li Yuanqing was.
Li Yuanqing did not dare to neglect, and quickly ordered Shunzi to lead his troops forward to prepare to meet the enemy.
Xu Heizi whispered: "Sir, these Tatars don't seem to be breaking out, but they seem to be testing us."
Li Yuanqing nodded and sneered slightly.
If they were to break through, there would definitely not be such a small number of people, and they would all be Han military flags.
Li Yuanqing has been hiding in the dark. The Jin army behind the station probably did not know the details of Li Yuanqing. These Han army flag soldiers were probably cannon fodder for testing.
At this time, Li Yuanqing also admired the commander of the Jin Army. On the one hand, he wanted to test his own side, but on the other hand, he was thinking about the possibility of eating his own side.
"These idiots really have lost all their authority."
Li Yuanqing spat hard and whispered to Xu Heizi: "After Shunzi meets the enemy, you will look at the situation and coordinate from the side. You must eliminate these Han flag soldiers in the shortest possible time."
Xu Heizi nodded quickly and quickly prepared.
At this time, these dozen Han flag soldiers had arrived in front of the formation and engaged Shunzi's headquarters.
These Han flag soldiers all wore armor and held round shields or wooden boards in their hands. They were extremely well-defended. However, this had advantages but also disadvantages.
Such heavy equipment made every step they took very difficult, especially when the snow on the ground was thick, let alone climbing the snow wall here.
Shunzi did not rush out to meet the enemy rashly, but took advantage of the terrain of the snow wall and used snowballs, rocks and other debris around him to attack the Han flag soldiers from high places.
Don't underestimate these snowballs that seem to be just for children to play with. After being grasped firmly by an adult, they are almost the same as rocks. If hit in the face at close range, they will definitely hit someone's head and cause bleeding.
The key point is that Li Yuanqing's side is really short of weapons and equipment. There is no archer. There are a few old-fashioned blunderbuss, but in this weather, they cannot be fired at all, and there is no long-range firepower at all.
At this time, the most common weapons in the hands of soldiers were single swords and wooden guns.
These Han flag soldiers did not expect that their opponents would be so immature, just like children playing house. But soon, with the snowballs and stones hitting their faces, they could no longer laugh and couldn't bear it.
He yelled at the person behind the snow wall: "You despicable smart dogs, you have the guts to come out and have a fight."
But Shunzi kept Li Yuanqing's order in mind and never attacked rashly. He used the snow wall to block the Han army flag soldiers to launch the most primitive attack. As long as they dared to climb the snow wall, they would be greeted by deadly steel knives and weapons.
Spear.
These Han flag soldiers were fully armed, originally to deal with bows, arrows and muskets. Who would have thought that their opponents would not use such weapons at all, but the simplest snowballs and stones.
After a while, they realized that their opponents did not seem to have bows, arrows or muskets. They were also aroused by Shunzi and others. Some people dropped their round shields and began to climb up the snow wall.
The Han flag soldiers behind them also followed suit. They threw away their bucklers and planks one after another and climbed up the snow wall. They wanted to teach these bastards behind the snow wall a lesson.
Not long after, seven or eight soldiers with Han banners climbed up the snow wall and rushed over.
Li Yuanqing also admired their courage, but he would not show any mercy.
Seeing that the time was almost up, Li Yuanqing waved directly to Shunzi and Xu Heizi. The two immediately understood and each led their own troops to quickly charge towards these Han flag soldiers.
It was late at night, it was still snowing heavily, and the visibility was not very high. These Han military flags were provoked by Shunzi and the others. They had no idea how many people were behind the snow wall. Only after they rushed over did they realize that they had fallen into
Among the people of the Ming army.
But by this time, it was too late to regret.
Fifty or sixty people rushed towards seven or eight of them. No matter how brave they were, they were just flesh and blood. In a short time, they were all killed behind the snow wall.
The eight or nine Han flag soldiers who were still climbing up also realized that something was wrong and quickly ran back for their lives.
At this time, Shunzi had already taken off the armor from the corpse of a Han army flag soldier, put it on himself, and quickly came to Li Yuanqing's side, "Brother, the armor of these dog Tatars is really good."
Li Yuanqing nodded, "Hurry up and put these armors on the men, just one for each of them."
These Han flag soldiers all wore double armor, and some even wore triple armor. These seven or eight people had more than twenty pairs of various armors, which was definitely a fortune that should not be underestimated.
Of course Shunzi understood what Li Yuanqing meant, nodded vigorously, and hurriedly called on the soldiers around him to "torture the corpses" and tear off all the ones that were usable.
Soon, these seven or eight corpses were stripped naked and thrown in front of the snow wall.
We can't blame Li Yuanqing for being cruel. Which of their weapons, armor, including clothes and underwear, were not stolen from the Han people?
Seeing how brutal Li Yuanqing's side was, the Han flag soldiers on the opposite side couldn't help but yelled and cursed.
The soldiers on Li Yuanqing's side were also rude and used verbal offensives to counterattack them frantically.
At this level, Li Yuanqing is no longer afraid of exposing his own strength. Sooner or later, the bayonet will see red. If these Tatars rush out as soon as possible, Li Yuanqing can save some physical strength.
At this time, the fire had spread to the gate of the inn. The wooden frame hanging the huge wooden door above the gate had been ignited by the fire. Some fragile wood was burning and falling from the top of the head.
The Tatars were finally no longer silent. A dozen Han flag soldiers were leading the way, faintly surrounded by two red-armored soldiers and one white-armored soldier. There seemed to be a leader behind them, fully armed, silently facing the center of the snow wall.
Rush over here.
Previously, when they were on the road, these real slaves were all wearing simple cotton armor. They were not people familiar with the details, so it was difficult to tell their identities from their appearance. But now, they were all wearing armor, and their identities were clear at a glance.
Seeing the two dozen Tatars rushing over silently, the soldiers on Li Yuanqing's side were a little quiet and unspeakably nervous.
If faced with the Han flag soldiers, these soldiers could still deal with it calmly, but when the real slaves were dispatched, they were still in red armor and white armor. This kind of psychological pressure seemed to be natural.
After all, in these years, Ming Dynasty has never had a victory against the Hou Jin Army, especially against the main force of Lao Nu.
Li Yuanqing was also a little silent, but for a moment, a cold and stern light appeared in his eyes, "Please cheer me up and greet these bastards like you did just now."
The soldiers also reacted at this time, gathering up the snowballs and stones behind them, and prepared to attack the Tatars.
Thirty steps, twenty steps, fifteen steps, seeing the most effective striking distance, Li Yuanqing shouted, "Hit me."
In a moment, snowballs, stones, and all kinds of miscellaneous weapons rained down on these Tatars.
These Tatars dodged and blocked each other, shouting and cursing loudly, and rushed toward the snow wall.
At this time, Xu Heizi whispered: "Sir, it's not good. Look over there. That's the main force of the Tatars. They want to go from the east."
Li Yuanqing had also been watching the situation at the gate of the inn. At this time, after hearing what Xu Heizi said, Li Yuanqing took a closer look. Sure enough, there were two white armors, two red armors, a leader, a generation son, and
Seven or eight infantrymen, escorted by more than a dozen Han army flag soldiers, a real slave man with a white bandage on his shoulder was running towards the end of the snow wall in the direction of the woods to the east.
That side was Wang Hai's defense range. He obviously didn't expect that the main Tatar force was going to break out from his side. He was already a little panicked and was about to rush out to meet the enemy.
Li Yuanqing yelled at Xu Heizi and Shunzi: "I'll leave this to you two. Even if you die, I will have to bear it."
"Yes." Xu Heizi and Shunzi did not dare to neglect and responded loudly.
"Duan Xiliang, follow me to kill the Tatars." Li Yuanqing greeted Duan Xiliang loudly, and led his troops to quickly go to Wang Haibu's side for support.
Duan Xiliang also reacted and followed Li Yuanqing.
Soon, Li Yuanqing arrived at Wang Hai's side. Several soldiers who showed up to check on the Tatars had been shot to death by Tatar archers.
Seeing Li Yuanqing coming, Wang Hai was anxious and angry, "Sir, the dog Tatars are really insidious."
Li Yuanqing signaled him not to act rashly, and in a low voice ordered the soldiers to temporarily hide behind the snow wall and carefully detect the Tatar movements through the simple ravines and crenels on the snow wall.
There were nearly thirty people in this group of Tatars, tightly surrounding the big man in the middle with white bandages on his chest and shoulders. They slowly ran towards this side and were already less than twenty steps away.
At the end of the snow wall is the forest. The snow wall extends all the way to a big tree. There is almost a meter between it and another big tree next to it. This gap can no longer be filled by manpower.
Li Yuanqing paid cold attention to the Tatars' figure, and whispered to Wang Hai: "Take someone to block the opening. They have a lot of armor on them and are very heavy. I can't control the terrain."
"Yes." Wang Hai did not dare to neglect and hurriedly led his troops to the edge of the forest.
At this time, Duan Xiliang suddenly shouted, "Sir, be careful."
As he said this, he pounced on the food like a hungry tiger and violently threw Li Yuanqing aside.
When Li Yuanqing raised his head, a cold feathered arrow hit the snow wall where Li Yuanqing was lying just now, and penetrated hard into the frozen snow wall.
"I'm going to fuck you, mother." Li Yuanqing couldn't help but spat hard.
Presumably, when I ordered Duan Xiliang before, the Tatars not far away heard the movement and wanted to plot against me.
These bitches are really more agile than wolves.
"Sir, are you okay?" Duan Xiliang was frightened and hurriedly checked Li Yuanqing's body.
Li Yuanqing quickly got up and shook his head coldly, "I'm fine. Xi Liang, you leave twenty people to guard the snow wall. Others, follow me to the other side of the forest. I want to see how the dog Tatars want to attack.
come over."
Duan Xiliang did not dare to neglect, and quickly left twenty people to defend. The rest of the troops gathered together, surrounded Li Yuanqing in the center, and quickly ran towards the forest.
At this time, the leader of this group of Tatars was already at war with Wang Haibu.
In this state, small tricks are useless, and the only option is to take the attack head-on.
One man in red armor and one in white armor took the lead and led seven or eight Han army flag soldiers to attack the opening in the forest.
The weapons of the Han army's flag soldiers are basically single swords. The red-armored soldier has a scythe as thick as an arm, while the white-armored soldier has two black hammers.
These two people were like two gods of death, taking the lead in charging into Wang Hai's battle formation.
"Go to hell, you bastard Tatars." Seeing this white-armored man so rampant, a Ming army soldier picked up a knife and struck him in the face.
But the white armor did not retreat or dodge. Just when the Ming soldier's sword was about to hit his face, he suddenly smiled ferociously and suddenly picked up the hammer in his hand.
In an instant, the steel knife in the Ming army soldier's hand seemed to have been bounced away, and he and the knife were thrown out together.
