I was living at the end of the Ming Dynasty, and I dealt a brutal blow to the Eight Banners!

South bank of the Hun River

Zhang Jingchuan and Dodo's two cavalry forces have already clashed.

Both sides were elite troops, and both fought fiercely regardless of casualties.

In such circumstances, it all comes down to willpower, equipment, and troop strength!

Zhang Jingchuan did not hesitate at all.

After engaging in battle, their first action was to charge towards Dordo's location.

This battle,

For Zhang Jingchuan, a swift resolution was essential.

When outnumbered, the only way to secure victory is to quickly eliminate the enemy general.

Dodo naturally saw Zhang Jingchuan as well.

Right now,

The two men were surprisingly in agreement: to kill the enemy general first!

No need for further words,

After exchanging glances, they spurred their horses toward each other.

As the warhorses clashed,

Zhang Jingchuan squeezed his legs tightly around the horse's belly, and changed his thrusting spear into a swinging motion.

"clang!"

A powerful force, like Mount Tai pressing down, slammed into Dodo's chest.

"puff!"

After spitting out a mouthful of blood, Dodo was thrown off his warhorse and his body was sent flying, crashing heavily to the ground.

Shock?

There wasn't even time to be shocked!

At this moment, Dodo's hands were splitting open and trembling.

Intense pain shot through my chest; I was probably two or three ribs were broken. I felt completely disoriented and saw stars before my eyes.

Dorgon was, after all, a valiant general in the Qing army. After falling to the ground, he could only suppress the pain in his body and try to get up.

But Zhang Jingchuan's Overlord Spear arrived, heading straight for his face.

In a panic,

Dodo didn't care about saving face anymore. He rolled twice on the ground before barely dodging Zhang Jingchuan's stab.

Although Yu's bravery is unparalleled throughout history, in the midst of a chaotic army, if the opponent really wanted to dodge, it wouldn't be so easy to take their life.

When he killed Ao Bai earlier

Zhang Jingchuan discovered this problem.

In terms of strength, agility, and combat experience, Ao Bai was no match for him.

But they have their personal guards to shield them from the blows, or at the very least, they can escape!

It's like a fierce tiger hunting a howling mongrel dog. When the dog sees your teeth and claws, it keeps trying to burrow into the bushes.

No matter how fast you are or how strong you are, you can't ignore obstacles like trees and rocks in front of you.

After only one round of matches,

Dodo had already given up fighting him, clutching his chest and fleeing in panic among the warhorses.

But then,

Then a dramatic scene unfolded.

Dodo was knocked away by a Qing cavalryman's horse and before he could get up, he was trampled to death by the panicked Qing cavalrymen.

His face was completely sunken.

Even if Zhang Jingchuan wanted to cut off his head and display it to announce that Dodo was dead, probably not many people would believe it.

Fortunately, the heavily armored cavalry of the Flying Cavalry were quite effective. Facing these Plain White Banner cavalrymen who were only wearing cloth armor, they used their lances to knock them off their horses.

They then attacked with hammers, axes, and maces, and no matter how powerful these Plain White Banner cavalry were, they could not withstand the onslaught.

after all,

You attack them, but their armor is so strong that you can't break through their defenses at all.

On the other hand, you can't even withstand a single blow from someone else.

As for the Royal Guard Battalion...

After dealing with the Qing cavalry at the camp entrance, they stormed into the camp.

Without the coordination of commanders and military units, the Plain White Banner cavalry in the Qing army camps could only fight independently.

The general cannot find his soldiers, and the soldiers cannot find their general.

The three or five riders who had managed to gather around the area were completely unable to resist the charge of a group of Ming cavalry.

and,

Your Qing cavalry have bows and arrows, but Zhang Jingchuan's personal guard battalion each has a bow and arrow.

In terms of horsemanship and archery, we are not necessarily worse than your Qing army.

After hundreds of cavalrymen from the Imperial Guard stormed into the Qing army camp, the Plain White Banner cavalry inside the camp were completely overwhelmed.

Even though Qing generals like Bamburshan led their troops in a fierce fight, they were ultimately unable to prevent the Imperial Guard cavalry from splitting into multiple groups.

A physical contest on the battlefield is like two strongmen arm wrestling; if you were to take them out and measure their strength, they would be about the same.

However, if one side is at a disadvantage during a competition, it is extremely difficult to turn the tide.

Inside the Qing army camp,

Bamburshan ordered the flag to be raised high, partly to tell his comrades that the general was still there and the leader was still there.

On the other hand, he also wanted to gather as many of his own followers as possible, because even if he wanted to break through, he would need enough strength.

however,

When Bamburshan saw more and more armored cavalrymen beginning to pour into the camp, he realized that there was no chance of turning the tide of the battle.

Bamburshan blinked, his eyes slightly moist.

He didn't wait for his close confidants to persuade him, nor did he hesitate or waver.

He chopped down the flagpole with a single stroke, turned his horse around, and began to flee northwards.

Defeated,

Utter defeat.

The appearance of armored cavalry meant that Dodo had already lost his life to the enemy.

By himself alone,

It's too late to turn the tide!

……

Bambursan escaped with several hundred cavalry through the northern pass, and Zhang Jingchuan could no longer lead his troops in pursuit.

Because he has more important things to do!

They did not clean up the battlefield, nor did they tidy up for Prince Dodo of the Qing Dynasty.

Just like Ao Bai,

On the battlefield, killing is just killing!

Whether you are a historical figure or have some special status.

There's no such thing as "I'll give you a proper burial just because you're my enemy, even though you're my enemy"—Zhang Jingchuan dislikes such formalistic things.

He only values ​​pragmatism and efficiency.

After clearing out the Plain White Banner cavalry who hadn't managed to break out of the camp, Zhang Jingchuan ordered four or five hundred of his personal guards to change into Plain White Banner cotton armor and warhorses and head towards Shengjing.

Zhang Jingchuan, meanwhile, followed closely behind with the remaining armored battalion.

……

After breaking through the encirclement, Banburshan disregarded whether the ice on the Hun River could withstand the iron hooves of hundreds of cavalrymen and galloped towards Shengjing.

Perhaps out of pity for the Qing army's predicament, Hunhe River did not cause any further accidents, except for a small number of cavalrymen who suffered minor injuries due to slipping on the ice.

Just as Bambursan was still feeling a bit of relief at surviving the ordeal, a Ming cavalry unit came into view.

A dark mass, numbering at least ten thousand, and all of them were cavalry!

Cao Mingsheng, who was in the distance, was also taken aback when he saw the hundreds of Qing cavalrymen dressed in Plain White Banner.

He had come following the marks left by the Marquis, but unexpectedly encountered a group of enemy cavalry.

Moreover, judging from these Plain White Banner cavalrymen covered in blood, it's obvious that it was the Marquis's doing.

Okay, okay,

If Your Excellency is eating meat, we can have some soup instead!

Thinking of this,

Cao Mingsheng held his long-handled sword horizontally above his head.

Behind them, the more than 10,000 cavalrymen split into nine groups, some flanking and others intercepting.

Using a sledgehammer to crack a nut is perfectly illustrated in this moment.
