Chapter 58 Whose Graveyard

The legs are as thick as the two ends, and they are sharpened and burned black and carbonized with high fire. The very hard log barbs are made...

After piercing them one by one into the soil, the wooden gun tips that had been burned black and carbonized pointed directly at the only direction of the Tartars launching an attack on Moguyu.

The dense but messy wooden barbs are in the middle, two trenches that are ten feet wide and three feet deep, and are very conspicuously lying in the middle of the barbs.

The earthen walls, which are three feet tall and three feet wide, are all standing on the direction of the Tartars' offensive, and are three feet away from the trench.

Standing three feet away between the earth wall and the trench, Wei Zheng personally used a comb to test the loading, aiming, firing, and clearing the chamber. After confirming that the narrow space would not affect the musketeer's shooting, Wei Zheng finally showed a satisfied smile from the bottom of his heart.

He affirmed to Zhou Shuyuan and Wang Feng around him: "I did a good job, this is the effect I want."

"During the battle, all the hottest players were hidden behind the earth walls, and through three-stage shooting, they shot at the Tartars attacking troops in units of teams. With the density of barbarians in front of the trenches, when the Tartar cavalry attacked from 150 steps to 50 steps, the musket battalion could fire at least ten rounds of lead bullets forward. With one round of lead bullets, we could shoot at least fifty Tartars. With ten rounds of lead bullets, we could shoot at least fifty Tartars."

"Of course, this is just the result of the Musket Battalion."

"In my mind, this line of defense not only has a musket battalion, but also an artillery battalion.

"After the Tartar cavalry rushed to fifty steps, the Tartars could shoot and kill the musketeers hiding behind the retaining walls by cavalry. In order to prevent the musketeers from losing money in the rain of Tartars arrows, the musketeers immediately retreated to the second line of defense through the traffic trench."

"At this time, it's the artillery turn to appear..."

"Among all the artillery equipment in the artillery battalion, the Tiger Cannon is undoubtedly the most easily transferred light artillery. In addition, its range is exactly between thirty and fifty steps, so I don't know that these defense lines are just right..."

"Before the battle started, we arranged six tiger lord cannons on the first line of defense, two in groups, and were arranged next to the traffic trench. After the musketeers withdrew from the battlefield, the six tiger lord cannons were divided into three groups, and they used two-stage shooting methods to shoot. One of the tiger lord cannons in one group fired the first fire, and the other fired the next fire. After completion, they quickly took the tiger lord cannon to retreat..."

"Six tiger cannons, one thousand two hundred lead bullets. It is certain that the two rows of Tartar cavalry rushing in the front will definitely be devastating. At that time, the attack path between 150 and thirty steps in front of the position will become a cemetery that will ruin the lives of the Tartars..."

Wang Feng seemed to be infected by the scene depicted by Wei Zheng, and immediately added: "General, in addition to the position, it will become a Tartar cemetery, the defense line under our feet will also become a cemetery that will destroy the Tartar cavalry."

"When the Tartars rushed to the retaining wall, the musket battalion had already entered the second-line position along the traffic trench. At that time, the Tartar cavalry would not only face the traps set by us on the front-line position, but also face the lead bullets fired by the musket battalion on the second-line position."

Military advisor Zhou Shuyuan also joined the discussion immediately and said excitedly: "General, Battalion Commander Wang, we can not only arrange musket battalions on the second line of defense, but also arrange medium-sized Flanger cannons with a range of more than 100 steps. In that case, if the Tartars want to attack our front-line positions, they will definitely pay an unprecedented greater price."

Seeing that the two had already understood this tactic and tactic, Wei Zheng breathed a sigh of relief and no longer hesitated and ordered loudly: "Then why are you still standing there? Why don't you arrange it immediately... After the Tartars arrive, turn the land under our feet into a grave that will destroy the Tartars' offensive troops..."

"Yes, General..."

Two hours later, the fifteenth Tatar Fifteen Belloddo, who was in charge of one thousand cavalry and one thousand infantry, arrived at the battlefield as promised and saw that Moguyu was constantly increasing and strengthening, and there was still a busy city wall.

Of course, in addition to the city walls, there are two lines of defense that have been built by the Tiger and Leopard Army, densely packed with wooden barbs like forests...

Before Duoduo could speak, Niu Lu Zhangjing, who was also riding on the war horse, quickly flashed a sneer full of sarcasm on his calm face.

Then, he said to Duoduo: "Master Bell, the Ming army opposite is too underestimated by the riding skills of the warriors... Do they think that just these barbs and three-foot-high retaining walls can block the warriors' attack..."

"As long as you give your offensive order, I will lead my warriors to break through the defense line that the Ming army blocked us in one fell swoop. Then, we will enter Moguyu and destroy all the Ming people hiding in Moguyu..."

Although Duoduo was arrogant and wanted to take down Mushroom Valley, it did not mean that he was not scheming and did not know how to think. Otherwise, he would not have been named Beile at such an age and was in charge of the White Banner, one of the Eight Banners, together with Dorgon.

Therefore, he was not affected by his subordinates behind him. He raised the monocular telescope of the Ming army and frowned and observed the Ming army's defense line in front of him.

When all the subordinates behind him gathered on Duoduo, Duoduo finally put down his monocular telescope.

Then, he said with a serious expression: "There is the Ming army behind the retaining wall, and it is the Ming army's musket force. As for whether there are artillery, it is unknown..."

"The horse-resisting formation, retaining walls, musketeers, and even artillery, one after another, is linked together, forming a line of defense in front of us that we have never met before. From this point of view, the Ming army hiding here is definitely an elite Ming army that we have never met before. Therefore, we must be cautious about the battle in front of us."

The three Niu Lu Zhangjing, who had never failed on the battlefield and were eager to make contributions, directly ignored Duoduo's reminder.

He continued to say arrogantly to Duoduo: "Master Beile, you look down on Ming Jun on the other side too much..."

"In the battle with the Ming army outside Zunhua City, facing thousands of musketeers of the Ming army, we can all use the advantage of cavalry to quickly approach the opponent's infantry formation and defeat them. What's more, the Ming army standing in front of us has only a few hundred people. Even if they have many muskets and artillery, they will not be able to block our cavalry's attack."

"It's right, on the field battlefield, the cavalry will never be defeated. As long as you give an offensive order, we will break through the Ming army's defense line, step the Ming army under our horse's hooves, and turn this line of defense that the Ming army has worked hard to build into their own cemetery." Another Niu Lu Zhang Jing followed closely and encouraged him.

Faced with the instigation of his subordinates and the fact that the Ming munitions and the Later Jin cavalry have always been defeated, Duoduo's solemn expression finally dissipated, and together with his subordinates, he showed unprecedented confidence.
