~.< >-~ The riflemen of the Qingzhou Army who were hiding behind the low wall kept shooting at them from behind the low wall, shooting down the auxiliary soldiers behind the shield cars and carts to the ground one by one.
"Hurry, fill up the trench quickly!" Fende Bashiku, who was hiding behind the cart, shouted loudly and ordered his men to step up their actions and fill up the trench in front.
The riflemen of the Qingzhou Army, two hundred steps away, lay down behind the low wall and fired at the exposed Qing soldiers with Mini rifles. Amidst the gunfire, Qing soldiers were continuously shot and fell into the trench in front.
inside.
Time continued (fastest update) After a stick of incense, the Qing soldiers finally advanced to the second trench after paying the price of thousands of casualties. At this time, the Qing army's shield carts were also damaged.
Cross.
However, Dorgon and Yue Tuo were still satisfied with the results of this battle. As long as these three trenches were filled up, the rest would be a clear path. As long as they could fight the Ming army in close combat, many Ming soldiers would not be the warriors of the Qing Dynasty.
opponent.
"Quick, quick! Push the shield cart forward!"
Seeing that the progress was going smoothly, the various Qing generals supervising the battle also excitedly urged the auxiliary soldiers to move forward as if they were on fire.
It's a pity that when they continued to push forward with shield carts and other objects, the other side had stopped for a long time, and the temperature of the artillery had dropped to normal. They began to speak again, under the order of Dong Guo, who had already been holding back his anger.
, more than thirty artillery pieces poured out white smoke and tongues of flame, roaring towards the front.
After the Qing soldiers filled up the first trench, the auxiliary soldiers struggled to push the shield cart to the second trench. Just when they were about to repeat the same trick of pouring soil into the trench, the roaring projectiles came
broke their plans.
Heavy projectiles hit the shield vehicles in an instant, and the seemingly solid shield vehicles were knocked over to the ground, leaving a lot of space, exposing the Qing soldiers who were originally hiding behind the shield vehicles.
However, the Qing soldiers were arranged too densely and were exposed in front of the Ming army. The riflemen, who were originally suffering from no target, could not hold on. The rifles in their hands immediately pulled the trigger towards the gap opened by the artillery fire.
A Qing soldier who was caught off guard was hit hard and fell to pieces after being hit by a hail of projectiles.
"These damn slaves, use the shield cart to block the gap!"
In the Qing army's formation two miles away, the Qing soldiers used loess and wood to build a large platform several meters high. On this platform, Dorgon and Yue Tuo stood under the golden dragon tapestry, facing the formation.
I watched in front of me and saw a Qing soldier being slaughtered like a lamb waiting to be slaughtered by the Ming army's firearms. It was impossible to say that I was not anxious.
Standing behind Yue Tuo, Luo Luohun clenched his fists as if cheering for his own warriors. As long as he advanced a hundred steps further, the warriors of the Qing Dynasty could shoot the bows and arrows in their hands into the Han camp. At that time, the world
No one can stop the Qing Dynasty.
"put!"
Facing the dense Qing army shield vehicles that continued to come forward, Dong Guo continued to order the gunners to fire. A large cloud of gunpowder smoke rose from the Qingzhou Army's artillery camp position, and the thirty-six Napoleon cannons fired in unison again.
Amidst the deafening sound of artillery, more than twenty Qing army shield vehicles were knocked to the ground. However, the shells that did not hit the shield vehicle actually jumped over the shield vehicle and then bounced behind it. Wherever the projectiles passed, there was a
Bloody road.
Niulu Zhangjing, a man with the blue flag, saw that his side suffered heavy losses under the artillery fire of the Ming army. He shouted in anger: "Warriors with the blue flag, everyone rush forward with me and kill all those lowly people.
Nikan (Nikan is the Jurchen's name for the Han people, and the Ming Dynasty was also called (Nikan country) by the Jurchens. The original meaning of the word Nikan in Manchu is "barbarian family") Anyone who is not afraid of death will kill me!"
After saying that, Niulu Zhang Jinggao held a long sword high in his right hand and a heavy shield in his left hand. He shouted and ran out from behind the shield car that was dodging and rushed forward. Behind him were hundreds of people who were incited by him.
Qing soldiers.
Seeing hundreds of Qing soldiers rushing towards them, the Ming army hiding behind the low wall would not show mercy at all. Amidst the deafening sound of artillery, dozens of artillery fired at the same time, like a huge gust of wind blowing, densely packed
Amidst the roaring sound of lead pellets and iron bullets, more than a dozen shield vehicles carefully built by the Qing soldiers were knocked to the ground. The Qing army archers or auxiliary soldiers who were following behind them were swept to the ground in large areas.
, dense blood holes appeared on almost everyone's body. As for the Qing soldiers who followed Niu Lu Zhangjing to charge, they had all turned into a pile of minced meat and fell on the road ahead.
Watching one Qing soldier being knocked down one after another, Pang Gang felt clear in his heart. If the battle continues like this, even if the Qing soldiers can break through the Ming army camp, the price they pay will be so heavy that they cannot afford it. Now
The Qingzhou army has enough rifles, gunpowder and food. They can hold on for at least more than 20 days. But can the Qing army hold on for more than 20 days? The answer is no if 80,000 Qing soldiers confront themselves here for more than 20 days.
, Not to mention the casualties of the 70,000 to 80,000 Qing troops, just the food they and the tens of thousands of Ming people ate and drank was enough to eat up all their food.
At this time, the open space in front of the Ming army's formation and the ditch were filled with dense corpses of the Qing army. The dead people all had different expressions, either with their eyes wide open, or with a face filled with resignation, or with eyes filled with fear.
Deep fear and disbelief.
The scarlet blood was shocking. From the bodies of injured or dead Qing soldiers, the ground was stained red with blood, which moistened the dry land, and then flowed into the trench in front.
Those dead Qing soldiers were better off, after all, the pain had gone away from them, but those Qing soldiers in their hands could only continue to bear the endless pain. Their hands and feet were either broken by lead bullets, or their bodies were beaten.
A big hole was opened, and the severe pain in their bodies caused them to keep screaming and struggling and crawling everywhere when they fell to the ground. These Qing soldiers were seriously injured, although the weather in May has become very warm, and it can even be said that
It was a bit hot, but looking at their companions struggling on the verge of death, all the Qing soldiers invariably felt a chill.
Finally, the auxiliary soldiers who had been desperately filling the trench with soil almost shouted at the same time. Many people dropped their burdens or bags and ran backwards, crying.
Yue Tuo, who could see clearly in the Qing army's formation, saw this scene and calmly ordered: "Drive back all those who escaped before the battle, and those who did not follow will be executed!"
Soon, the voice of the supervising team was heard everywhere on the battlefield: "The general has an order. No one is allowed to retreat. Anyone who disobeys the order will be killed!"
War horses galloped across the battlefield, and the long swords in their hands slashed at the auxiliary soldiers who kept running back towards the general. In the bloody light, at least hundreds of auxiliary soldiers fell on their sides.
Down.
The bloody killings woke up the frightened auxiliary soldiers. Seeing the menacing looks of the Bajala camp supervising the battle and the bloody swords in their hands, many people ran back in panic. The scene was once very chaotic.
It was in this chaos that he was shot to death by Ming army riflemen.
Lu Xiangsheng, who was standing on a tall cart, couldn't help but marvel when he saw this scene. The Qing soldiers surrounded the Ming army camp with all their strength and attacked. They thought it would be a hard battle. Even if they could repel this wave of attacks,
Our own side was bound to suffer serious losses. Unexpectedly, the Qingzhou Army defeated the Tatars with heavy losses just by relying on artillery and those amazingly powerful cannons. From this morning to now, the Tatars have lost at least more than 3,000 people.
This victory is not insignificant. If the battle continues in this way, it will be impossible for the Tatars to fill in these three trenches without leaving six to seven thousand corpses today.
Zhou Siyong, who was behind Lu Xiangsheng, couldn't help but sigh: "Sir, this method that Commander Pang came up with is really amazing. I didn't expect that these few small trenches can exert such great power. Commander Pang is really a genius.
also."
Lu Xiangsheng nodded. In fact, he was also very impressed by the use of Qingzhou Army's artillery. When the Warlock Gate artillery fired, the huge energy they burst out in an instant was really amazing, and it could also cause greater damage and damage to the enemy.
Deterrence. And that seemingly simple trench caused the Qing soldiers to suffer a lot. Countless Qing soldiers were lost in front of this trench in this way.
At this time, dozens of shield vehicles temporarily transferred from other places hurriedly filled the gap opened by the artillery. The Qing army did not have a good way to deal with the artillery of the Qingzhou Army, so they could only use this passive method to resist it.
, they can only resist the opponent's attack in a passive way like "I'll fill up as much as you blow up."
After a lot of hard work, the Qing army finally blocked the gap in front of the trench, but the price they paid for this was the corpses of more than 300 Qing soldiers on the ground.
After paying a bloody price, the remaining Qing soldiers finally became afraid and shrank from the attack. Many Qing soldiers just hid behind the shield vehicles and threw bags of earth or loess into the trench in front without even looking.
Lifting is very wasteful, but at least it is much safer and the chance of being shot is also much lower.
Seeing how shameless the Qing soldiers were, the Ming army burst out laughing. The Tatars, who had always boasted of their bravery, were so afraid of death. They were so cautious even showing their heads. Who would believe it?
At this time, only dull gunshots could be heard from time to time on the position, and many seriously injured Qing soldiers were lying on the ground moaning, but no one dared to risk their lives to come forward to rescue them. These injured Qing soldiers could only
Lying on the ground in pain, waiting to die, their helpless pleas and moans continued to reach the Qing army camp.
The people in the Bagala camp who were supervising the battle at the back couldn't help but look at each other. The Ming army here was too difficult to accept. Not only were their firearms sharp, but the defense lines they set up were also so cumbersome. They could count them with just a few trenches.
Ten thousand warriors of the Qing Dynasty firmly blocked the outside. What kind of defense line was there? This was simply a flesh and blood mill.
