Chapter 527 Night Attack

Seeing Dorgon's mental collapse, Hong Chengchou and others quickly tried to persuade him.

"Don't worry, Master, the Kongming Lantern is just a fancy trick, nothing to worry about."

"Yes, Master, our Qing soldiers have an absolute advantage in strength and we will win this battle."

"Master, in the face of absolute strength, all conspiracies and tricks will be in vain."

Under the relief of a few die-hard traitors, Dorgon quickly regained his composure. Fury, anxiety and frustration would only make the situation worse. Dorgon knew this very well.

"According to my decree, Green Camp will be evacuated immediately, and don't stay in one place for a long time."

After regaining his composure, Dorgon's mind returned to normal and he quickly made the correct response.

It is indeed a headache for the Ming army to use Kong Ming lanterns to throw thousands of enemies from high altitude, but it is not without countermeasures. As long as the green camp is moved and does not stay in one place for a long time, the Ming army will have nothing to do with them.

Soon, the remaining 350 or so camels scattered.

In this moment of bombing, more than 40 camels were lost.

It also meant the loss of more than 40 Camel swivel guns.



Zheng Sen saw it from high in the sky and couldn't help but frown.

It seems that the Jiannu people are not all idiots, there are also smart people.

Zheng Xi also asked: "Zheng gave me advice, now that Jiannu's camel cannons have scattered and are far away, do we still want to chase them and blow them up?"

"You're still chasing after shit." Zheng Sen said angrily.

"If Jiannu's camel cannons don't stop, they won't be able to blow up even if they catch up."

The situation is clear. If Jiannu's camel cannons did not lie prone on the ground, but kept standing, no matter how accurate the bombs dropped by their air force, they would not be able to explode them.

Because the camel ran away before the grenade hit the ground.

By the way, regarding this, Zheng Sen also asked Casper, the dean of the School of Physics, to calculate for them that it would take nearly three seconds for a grenade to land from thirty steps in the air.

At a height of fifty steps, it takes more than four seconds.

After so much time, the camel had already run dozens of steps away.

"That's true." Zheng Xi said unwillingly, "Then let's forget it like this?"

"It's impossible to just let it go like this." Zheng Sen's eyes suddenly turned to the Chinese army's main formation of Jiannu, and he said with a ferocious smile, "Our air force has finally won the battle, so why don't we just kill it?

"

Speaking of this, Zheng Sen started signing to the captains of the other nine flying cars one by one.

After giving the order, Zheng Sen said to Zheng Xi: "Xizi, go up to a hundred steps, the goal is to build the slave formation, let's go!"

"Yes!" Zheng Xi immediately perked up after hearing this. He turned the handle with both hands at the same time, and the propeller at the end of the hanging basket immediately started to rotate rapidly, giving the flying car a thrust.

The flames in the furnace were also blown up by the bellows.

The speed car immediately began to rise and slide forward.

Cross flying chariots came straight towards the main formation of the Jiannu Central Army.



"not good!"

"Escort! Hurry and escort!"

"Summon Bagala to escort you quickly!"

"Why are you protecting me? Master, leave this place quickly!"

Seeing that the Ming army's speeding car suddenly abandoned the Green Camp and rushed towards the Qing army's main formation, Ning Wanwo, Fan Wencheng and other die-hard traitors in the Chao car suddenly panicked.

Only Hong Chengchou did not mess up and shouted loudly: "Master, get out of here quickly!"

Although Dorgon was reluctant, he could only endure it considering that if he had any trouble, it would definitely have a fatal impact on this war and might even shake the foundation of the Qing Dynasty.

At that moment, Dorgon had a dark face and quickly got out of the chao car.

Hong Chengchou and several other die-hard traitors also left.

Dozens of bagaras with yellow flags went the wrong way and boarded the Chao chariot.

By the way, the title of Baya La in Eight Banners Manchuria is gradually becoming more common.

In the era of Lao Nu and Huang Taiji, the number of Baya La soldiers was strictly limited. Each Niulu usually only had ten people, and no more than twelve at most. Therefore, the total number of Baya La soldiers in Eight Banners Manchuria was only 3,000.

In the Battle of Sarhu, Lao Nu relied on three thousand Baya soldiers to defeat the Ming army camp.

However, after Dorgon reorganized the Eight Banners, in order to appease the bannermen of each banner, he promoted all the remaining soldiers to Bujia, Bujia to Majia, Majia to Hongjiala, and Hongjiala to Baya.

La Bing.

Therefore, the number of bagaras in each banner increased from a dozen to forty or fifty.

If not for this, Xiangbai Qi would not have been able to raise 3,000 Baya soldiers for Oboi to take to North Korea.

After the expansion of Baya soldiers, the quality has declined, but they are still much better than ordinary soldiers.

The dozens of bagaras with yellow flags are all excellent archers, and the large bows they hold are basically one-stone strong bows. They can shoot far and accurately, which is very powerful.

In the blink of an eye, the flying car was already diagonally in front of the nest car.

"Shoot the arrows!" Vasinga shouted sternly, "shoot these smart dogs to death!"

Dozens of bagaras drew their bows and released arrows. Accompanied by the "bang bang bang" sound of the bow strings vibrating, three- or four-edged heavy arrows as thick as a thumb were shot at the flying car in the air.

Zheng Sen was actually very careful and climbed to 100 steps before the air attack on Jiannu's main formation.

But he still underestimated Jiannu's white-armored soldiers. Before they could fly above Jiannu's main formation, heavy arrows as thick as a thumb had already been shot diagonally near the hanging basket.

But fortunately, all the heavy arrows have been exhausted.

One hundred steps high is almost the limit of a large bow.

But Zheng Sen was still startled and immediately shouted: "Xizi, go up another twenty steps, hurry up!"

While ordering Zheng Xi to continue to raise twenty steps, Zheng Sen also gave sign language to the speeding cars behind him, reminding them to follow suit and raise twenty steps to avoid being injured by Jiannu's heavy arrows.

Zheng Sen was not afraid of being shot through the car, but he was mainly worried about hurting people.

It's actually nothing if a few holes are shot in the body of a flying car, and it won't affect the lift or flight.

However, in order to reduce the load, the air force officers riding on the flying car did not even wear cotton-padded armours or hats, or even t-shirts and square scarves.

So Zheng Sen was worried that the air force officers would be killed or injured.

The cross speed car quickly rose to a height of one hundred and twenty steps.

At this distance, Baya Labing's large bow could only stare at him.

Even if a heavy arrow can reach this height, it will be a powerful crossbow and lose its lethality.

Immediately, the ten flying carts began to drop bombs, and Zheng Sen even threw the remaining grenades onto the nest cart underneath. What if there were still important figures from the slave establishment staying on the nest cart?



All this sounds like a long story, but actually it only takes a moment.

Dorgon, Hong Chengchou, Fan Wencheng and several other die-hard traitors hurriedly got out of the chariot and hid in the distance. However, not far away, there was a "boom, boom, boom" explosion behind them.

Looking back quickly, I saw several clouds of smoke and dust rising from the Chinese army's main formation.

A cloud of smoke and dust exploded under the chariot. The next moment, the towering chariot crashed down, and dozens of bagaras who were guarding the chariot with bows and arrows fell down in an instant.

"How disgusting!" Dorgon's face fell again.

These dozens of bagaras are probably disabled, if not dead.

Dorgon didn't dare to stop until he ran hundreds of steps away.

When I looked back, I saw that the Ming army's flying car had already flown back.

Looking at the main formation of the Qing army's central army, it was already in a mess.

Chaoche Chaoche was blown up and collapsed, causing many casualties in Baya La Baya La.

Many baggage items were blown up and even started to burn.

Seeing the Baya soldiers with yellow flags and the accompanying soldiers hurriedly putting out the fire, Dorgon's face was so gloomy that he could almost scrape off a layer of frost.

How can we fight this battle? We can no longer fight it!

The Ming army sat on Kongming lanterns and attacked the Qing soldiers from the sky, but the Qing soldiers could not defeat the Ming army. This is no longer a question of who is stronger and who is weaker, or who is better at using troops, but a fundamental imbalance.

I have never heard of such a thing.

Thinking of this, Dorgon's mentality almost collapsed again.

Bullying, why did I meet the enlightened Chongzhen?

Fortunately, at this time, Hou Fangyu suddenly said: "Master, although the Kongming lanterns of the Ming army are powerful, they are not without their weaknesses. At night, the Kongming lanterns become just decorations."

"Well, at night?" Dorgon couldn't help but his expression moved slightly.

"Yes, at night." Hou Fangyu said, "At night, the Kongming lanterns of the Ming army cannot distinguish between east, west, north and south, and it is difficult to distinguish between high and low. They can't even see where our Qing soldiers are forming their formation. How can we throw thousands of enemies away?"

"Well, it makes sense, it makes sense." The expression on Dorgon's face finally looked better.

Hong Chengchou also further suggested: "Master, the Ming army can use Kongming lanterns to throw thousands of enemies from the sky. The cost of attacking during the day is too high, so it is better to attack at night."

Dorgon frowned and said, "But the question is, how to attack at night?"

Ning Wanwo agreed: "Yes, the Ming army can't see at night, and our Qing soldiers can't see either. If we can't see, we can't use artillery to destroy the Ming army's sidecar array. We can't directly let the Eight Banners Manchuria or

Should the Eight Banners and Han Army launch a forceful attack? If we launch a forceful attack without first destroying the Ming army's chariot array, the casualties will be unimaginable."

Hou Fangyu snorted and said, "Who told you that our Qing soldiers couldn't see at night?"

"What do you mean?" Ning Wan and I were stunned for a moment and asked, "How can you see at night?"

"Why not?" Hou Fangyu said suddenly, "You can have Baoyi set fire in front of the Ming army's formation at night, or you can load a carriage with igniting materials and light it in front of the Ming army's formation. If necessary, you can even do it on horseback.

Wrap a fire starter, light it, and then drive it to the Ming army's formation for lighting purposes. Wouldn't it be possible to see at night?"

"This?" Ning Wanwo frowned, "Although the idea is good, how can the Ming army just sit back and watch."

Hou Fangyu said coldly: "Even if the Ming army tries to destroy it, our Qing army can counter it."

Hearing this, Dorgon was heartbroken and said in a deep voice: "Pass the decree, all banners will retreat five miles, leaving only the light cavalry of the Horqin Mongolian banners to monitor the Ming army, and we will make calculations after dark!"

"Hey!" Cao Eryu responded respectfully.
