Niulu Ezhen Saksu of the Zhenghuang Banner was sitting on a horse, surrounded by seventy or eighty infantrymen of this Niulu. The heroic cavalry school Sasuli was waiting on the side.
They looked at the red-burnt reeds on the shore and were a little worried. They might not be able to get out for a while. Fortunately, there was a small piece of land that went deep into the water, and there was also a pavilion that was in disrepair and had mottled paintings. Otherwise, it would not be possible.
It was roasted.
"Let's rest here for a while and wait until the fire is out before leaving." Saksu took a sip of water and put down the water bag and said.
Everyone agreed. At this time, there was no way to leave. Fortunately, it was safe here.
Suddenly there was a bang of a gunshot. Ma Jia Puli fell to the ground with a somersault, and a bloody hole appeared on his head. Immediately afterwards, a burst of arrows shot like locusts.
Saxu and Sassuli immediately fell to the ground. The Jiannu of this era, whether they were generals, officers, or soldiers, all had very high fighting qualities. The other cavalrymen brought their horses down, and they lay down behind the horses to block their bodies.
.Use the lying war horse to act as a wall to block arrows.
Soon they discovered that they were surrounded. As many as a hundred rowing boats were surrounding them from all sides.
For a moment, arrows were like locusts, whizzing! They kept shooting towards this small piece of land. Saksu and others tried their best to find hiding places, such as a stone for landscaping, but the place was too small.
There isn't much cover.
People kept getting hit by arrows. Suddenly the slaves were a little panicked. They were not afraid of anyone on land, but when they got to the water, they couldn't.
"Fight back quickly, fight back quickly!" Sasuri shouted loudly. They can't be passively beaten like this. They have a small number and will be defeated.
At this time, the rowing boat had already rushed to a distance of thirty meters. Jiannu finally started to fight back.
They hid behind the prone war horses, exposing part of their heads to facilitate aiming and shooting.
Jiannu was accustomed to shooting arrows to fight back within thirty meters.
Once the heavy arrows and big bows were counterattacked, their power was astonishing. Large arrows more than one meter long were shot one after another, hitting the Ming army on the rowing boat one after another.
After all, the shield could not completely cover the body. Almost every time an arrow was shot, there would be a scream. Some people were shot where their hands and feet were exposed. Several oarsmen had their arrows overturned in the water.
The water is very cold during this season. Even though it’s civilized, the temperature in the water is barely above freezing.
Huang Haoming was furious. These slaves were trapped on an isolated island, and they were still so arrogant. He ordered: "The bow guns of each ship opened fire immediately."
These rowing boats are cement boats with a width of only about one meter. However, a one-pound Fran machine gun is placed on the bow. These small guns are used for water warfare. On inland waterways, heavy guns are not used.
On the contrary, these smallest eagle cannons and Fran cannons are very useful.
As soon as he gave the order, an arrow flew towards him with a sound of breaking through the air, hitting the shield of a soldier in front of him. What was strange was that the arrowhead of this arrow was obviously different from the ordinary ones. It seemed to be made of steel to facilitate breaking.
A triangular arrow.
The shield was shot through instantly, and the soldier screamed and fell into the water.
Immediately afterwards, the Franchise aircraft on each ship opened fire. Boom, boom, boom! The sound of a series of cannon fires was deafening. One shell after another flew towards the pavilion.
Although the one-pounder cannon is small, it still has no problem hitting horses and people. Even if they are all wearing triple armor, it is possible to block the three-eyed musket. But don't even think about blocking the one-pounder cannon.
A cannonball hit the horse lying on the ground. The shot ball directly broke the horse's belly, broke the horse's spine, and collapsed the chest of Jiannu who was lying behind to shoot arrows. The horse's internal organs immediately flew into the sky.
Because the cannonballs rotated, they left broken bones and flesh all over the place.
Continuous artillery shells were coming, and the war horses acted as bunkers to block bows, arrows and three-eyed muskets. However, no matter how small the Fran cannon was, they couldn't stop it. Not only were the war horses beaten to pieces, but even the people covering behind them were beaten to pieces.
.
Sasuri complained endlessly that these Akito ships actually had the smallest Fran cannon. This was beyond his imagination.
Now the Ming troops rowed their boats and retreated, leaving the range of their bows and arrows. Then they took advantage of the long range of their artillery to continue bombarding them in the distance.
A lead bullet hit the pillar, and wood chips flew into the air. A foot-long sharp piece of wood pierced into Sassuli's thigh. The pain almost drove him crazy.
Several more shots came in succession, hitting a pillar again, and the pavilion suddenly couldn't stand it any longer. It collapsed with a loud crash, smashing them underneath. Suddenly, a burst of smoke filled the air.
"Come forward and shoot three more rounds with shotguns." Huang Haoming ordered loudly.
After three rounds, the pavilion had completely collapsed, and the people on the island were swept away by intensive shotguns. They were all landlubbers from Liaodong, and they couldn’t swim. Moreover, the water was too cold at this time, and there was a risk of freezing to death if they went into the water. Therefore, they did not
Dare to dive.
When the smoke and dust dissipated, the island was full of tumbling wounded people wailing. Especially when the shotgun blasts swept across them, everyone, whether they were men or horses, were beaten as if they were stunned.
"Log in and see if there are any alive to bring back for business."
There were basically no people left standing on the island. Huang Haoming led people to the island and took the prisoners on board. The seriously injured could only be treated with spears. They did not have the conditions to revive the seriously injured, and their limited resources were not enough.
to save everyone.
As the wails ceased, the heads of the seriously injured slaves were cut off.
Huang Haoming was very excited. He annihilated 77 enemies and captured two people. This was a great achievement. Although he brought 3,000 people with him, he only killed 79 enemies, but in the situation where the heads of slaves were scarce, this thing was also available.
Many people want it.
This fire successfully prevented Zhengbai Qi's pursuit. When it got dark, the fire in Nanyuan gradually extinguished.
Early the next day, a large number of Qing troops appeared outside Yuan Chonghuan's camp.
Yuan Chonghuan looked through a monocular telescope and saw that the Eight Banners had four flags of yellow, two red, and blue as the right wing; four flags of yellow, two white, and blue were the left wing. The troops marched in Guangqumen, trying to defeat the Ming army from two sides.
In addition to setting up the formation yesterday, Yuan Chonghuan was not idle. He commanded his men and began to dig trenches. Yuan Chonghuan also ordered his subordinate Liu Tianlu to rob the camp while the heat was hot. However, Liu Tianlu found many breakthroughs at night and saw that the Manchu and Qing troops were tightly defended, so Liu Tianlu failed to succeed.
I had to return early in the morning.
Seeing that there was no hope for the soldiers in Nanyuan, Yuan Chonghuan had no choice but to redeploy his troops. Yuan Chonghuan ordered Zu Dashou to be in the south and Wang Chengyun to be in the north. He personally led his troops to the west, forming a formation with the word "pin" to prepare for the attack.
At noon, the Manchu and Qing troops suddenly divided into six teams. Ao Bai, who was flying the yellow flag, took the lead, holding his long sword high and attacking Yuan Chonghuan with arrows like rain.
Yuan Chonghuan's Chinese army was all elite officers and soldiers. He immediately took the lead and led the Tiaodang soldiers to rush into the enemy's formation and kill the enemy bravely. His Guan Ning soldiers also launched a desperate battle with Jiannu.
