Chapter 594: Bird Gun Soldiers Are Also Good at Close Combat

soon.

There are two troops on the battlefield that are almost unable to hold on.

Mongolian cavalry and Ming army infantry.

The Mongolian cavalry was not elite, they could fight in favorable battles but not against unfavorable ones. Under the fierce attack of the Ming cavalry, they gradually became exhausted.

The commander of the Ming army's infantry was He Jin.

There were only four or five thousand elite infantrymen under his command, and the rest were ordinary soldiers who were unable to fight tough battles.

We have been able to hold on until now thanks to the help of our elite troops.

Under the siege of heavy infantry and cavalry, the infantry suffered increasing losses.

Bang!

A Ming army spearman fell to the ground under siege by two Jiannu heavy armored soldiers.

The swordsman next to him was also shot in the face by an arrow and died.

A gap suddenly appeared in the Ming army's formation.

"Soldiers of the Eight Banners, follow me and kill together!" Yue Le led the way and rushed into the gap.

The other Eight Banners soldiers followed closely behind him and rushed towards the gap, trying to break through the formation from here.

After the panic, the Ming army in the formation immediately organized troops to block the enemy.

Under the watchful eyes of the Eight Banners soldiers, those bird-gun soldiers who did not carry swords came forward with their bird-guns.

Swish!

Countless bird guns stabbed forward at the same time.

The Rumi gun is four feet five (one meter five) long, and with the bayonet, the total length is five feet four (one meter eight).

The soldier's sword is three feet long, half the length of a musket plus a bayonet!

On the battlefield, an inch longer means an inch stronger!

The cavalrymen in the front were stabbed and fell off their horses before they could speed up.

All the Eight Banners soldiers were stunned for a moment.

It was not until now that they realized that the extra part in front of the bird gun was used to kill people!

After killing these Jiannu cavalry, the Ming army used bayonets to force the horses to run backwards.

The Jiannu cavalry behind wanted to charge but their route was blocked by the war horses, and for a while they were stuck in place and unable to move.

"Release!" He Jin led hundreds of his personal soldiers to the gap.

Bang bang bang!

The dense sound of bird guns continued. The high-ranking cavalry became living targets for the Ming army's infantry and were turned into funnels by the bullets fired from the Rumi guns.

Plop, plop——

Bodies kept falling from the horses.

"The Ming army is mighty! The Ming army is mighty!" Under He Jin's organization, the gap was resealed.

Haoge glanced at the sun in the sky, gritted his teeth and waved his hand, saying: "Qi Zheng'e (Hauge's eldest son), you lead a thousand of my personal soldiers to break through the formation.

, must take it down!"

Before Qi Zheng'e could accept the order, a scout came to Haoge and said, "Prince Su, the Ming army reinforcements are five miles to the south and are coming at full speed."
