8days ago Historical fiction 7
The terrain here is flat, and occasionally the hillside is very smooth.However, there are a lot of water networks and there are a large number of rice fields and shrubs nearby. For the army and the terrain are not conducive to large-scale marching.

The Ming army's multi-way column came from a small path between rice fields one after another, and stopped moving forward less than two hundred steps away from the enemy's formation.

The general ordered each team to organize a square formation in a horizontal lineup.

The soldiers kept queuing and gradually formed a flat square formation. Only when the cross-section was wide enough could they not be surrounded by enemy infantry.

The flags floated among the teams, mostly with flags with Chinese characters written on them.After a while, a sun and moon dragon flag with a blue background and yellow picture moved over.

Then a serious and thin middle-aged general walked to the front of the military formation with his hands pressed the hilt of the knife.

The generals in the queue clasped their fists and said: Commander Lin.This person is Lin Zixuan, one of the commanders of the navy.

Perhaps the food at sea is not very good, and I often eat cold food, and few naval generals are fat.

Lin Zixuan kept nodding and responded to the generals' greetings. He watched for a while in front of him.There was still a faint wet mist in the air, but the terrain between the two armies was clear at a glance.

The terrain between the two sides is not easy to walk, with wasteland with rocks and weeds and dry fields. The most important thing is that the two paddy fields divide the open land.

Lin Zixuan summoned all the hundreds of households, arranged for a while, and then ordered to move forward immediately.

After a while, a flute was blown in the military formation.Amid the light military music, the shouts of generals came everywhere: Walk in step!

The teams began to line up in the horizontal blow, and the team soon became less neat.

Because some people have to climb up the ridges of dry fields, it is difficult to maintain a horizontal and vertical formation when walking through rocks.

But the soldiers were still moving forward in a queue.

When people arrived between the two rice fields, the hundreds of households in the middle stopped and the soldiers stood there.

The horizontal square arrays on both sides walked from both sides towards the dry land in the middle.

After the two wings passed, the Hundred Houses team in the middle followed.

Gradually, the Ming Dynasty's official army approached 100 steps and had entered the range of the enemy's infantry bow.The expressions on the sergeants gradually became nervous.

The thin mist drifted in the air, and beyond the sound of blowing horizontally, the noise of the enemy troops in the distance was vaguely heard.The Ming army soldiers didn't say anything and kept moving forward at speed.

Most of the people's faces were still very tired.

The troops of Commander Lin were not Zhu Zhen’s troops stationed on the land, but naval soldiers.

They have been wandering on the sea for many days, just fought in Saigon Bay yesterday, and only got off the warship today.

Papapapapa... The sound of strings came from a distance, and dark shadows in the air were dotted, and the arrows of the real lark man flew over.

The arrows crackled on the wooden shields of the Ming army's guns and shield soldiers in the front row, and there was a crisp sound of metal hitting in the crowd. Some soldiers were shot in the helmets and armor.

From time to time, someone fell to the ground with a cry of pain.

But the Ming army was still advancing, and the generals did not order a counterattack.

People pass through the mist in the rain of arrows, as if they are walking a pioneering road full of thorns.

Some people sacrificed, some were injured and shouted in pain, but the overall progress of the Ming government army did not stop or hesitate at all, and the firm momentum was unstoppable.

After the second round of intensive shooting of the enemy's bows and arrows, the front of the Ming army finally walked through two rice fields and they began to separate to the two wings.The gun and shield soldiers in the front row held their shields facing the enemy's formation and blocked the side of their bodies.

Because the Ming army did not fight back at all, the Zhenla army did not charge, and still carried out unilateral shooting on the Ming army's formation in front.Ming army soldiers were constantly injured and left to their original position.

At this time, the Ming army soldiers looked both dull and stupid, constantly being shot by bows and arrows, but without any response.

The brisk horizontal music in the military formation looks particularly funny.

However, the queue was not at all chaotic, and the military discipline was extremely strict. This scene might have shocked the enemy.

The teams of all households have completed the formation adjustment step by step, and have continued to advance towards the real la people with a flat square formation.

The Ming army still did not stop when it was close to fifty steps.

The archers of the real La people began to shoot flat at the Ming army, shooting at close range, and the arrows were nailed into the wooden shield, and sometimes the heavy infantry of the gun shield were injured.

The archers of the Zhenla army shot happily, as if they were shooting a living target.

When it was only about twenty or thirty steps closer, the Ming generals shouted and the blew at a sudden end.Two soldiers with waist drums with them waved the drumsticks and quickly pounded the drumsticks... and started beating them.

As the hundreds of households shouted, the guns and shield soldiers in the front row of each team squatted to the ground, and the infantry holding muskets raised their firearms behind them.

People can already see the dark faces of the real wax men opposite, and even the confused and surprised expressions on the faces of those people can see clearly.

The hundreds of households in each team raised the goose-feather sword, pointed to the direction of the attack, and shouted: Let it go!The bright flames shone, the muzzle was bang bang bang bang bang bang bang... It exploded densely, and the smoke of gunpowder flew.

At such a close distance, the enemy has a deep military formation, and the lead bullets are almost completely fired.

The Zhenla soldiers who were shooting happily before suddenly many people screamed and fell to the ground, some of them were hit by several shots, and their bodies twitched.

The real La soldiers were in scattered casualties like harvested rice.

A round of volley shots is like a killing move with one blow.The enemy's bow and arrow formation was in an uproar, and many people ran away with their bow and arrows.The gentle slope opposite was filled with people, and it was like a blowout.

The government troops had already changed teams, and the dense sound of guns fired in the second row quickly rang out again.

Many fleeing enemy soldiers were shot in the back and fell to the slope.

The military formations everywhere there were scattered, the crowd fled and the hillside was full of people.

After the three strikes of the front team of the Ming army, they were originally planning to advance again.But what surprised Lin Zixuan and others happened at this time.

The Zhen La army did not retreat in its entirety.After the bow and arrow formation dispersed, the elephant soldiers behind them advanced instead of retreating, and brought a large number of infantry to counterattack!

The enemy troops were very chaotic, and after ordinary troops set up a large formation, it was indeed difficult to maintain their formation during the attack.However, each enemy team gathered in one place and came up together to kill the generals.

Lin Zixuan ordered a team change.

The Baihu team in front retreated, and the Baihu teams that were spread horizontally behind went up.

The soldiers who fired the muskets were busy reloading as soon as they stopped. They were now using a single strip to clean the gun barrel to ensure that there was no remaining sparks.

The army was busy, and countless arms were waving back and forth.

The elephant soldier in hard leather armor advanced with heavy steps, while the soldiers on their backs held long weapons.

The elephant's nose was swinging back and forth in the air.

The large group of infantry behind were holding various weapons and shouting loudly. The shouts on the hillside were deafening, as if they were resounding throughout the mountains, forests and rice fields on the earth.

At this moment, some strong men in the Ming army walked into the front of the formation from the gap between the team.

With the order of the general, everyone picked up the short torch, lit the lead, and then rushed forward and threw the pig iron thunder in their right hand out.

boom!Boom boom boom... A huge explosion sounded, and the pig iron thunder ignited on the ground flashed with flames, and gunpowder filled with smoke and countless iron pieces flew everywhere.

The deafening explosions and dazzling fires scared the elephants panic and chirped.The elephants all turned their heads and ran away, rushed backwards like crazy and rushed into the infantry crowd of the Zhenla Army.

The huge animal, which was usually docile, was completely desperate at this time and rushed around the crowd.

The situation of the Zhenla military crowd was simply terrible, with chaos everywhere, running away and screaming in chaos.

The various hundred-house teams of the second regiment of the Ming army used Chunhan light guns and used three-stage strikes to maintain firepower, and fired at close range on the Zhenla infantry.It was just adding fuel to the fire.

The Zhenla soldiers were like a large group of ducks drifting with the flow. They first rushed forward, and then fled to the hillside together.

The enemy didn't hold on for even half an hour, and the entire army became a mob, running around the hillside and the woods.

The short battle ended, and the Zhen La people were defeated, and the rest was nothing more than being chased and slaughtered.
