Following Wang Zhi's order, the two square formations located in the front row of the formation began to move.
Today, Wang Zhi set up a large phalanx. Each phalanx is a battalion of soldiers and horses, full of 5,000 people. Each phalanx has twenty rows, and each row has 250 people, forming a square.
A huge phalanx. When this phalanx slowly moves forward, the momentum is extremely astonishing.
If a phalanx of five thousand people is to march together, it must have a unified command. At this time, it is not like putting a headset in everyone's ear. If we rely on shouting and commanding, due to the position of the commander
, it is difficult for the order to be conveyed to so many people’s ears at the first time. How on earth can 5,000 people execute the order and prohibit it?
This question stumped a large number of people at the beginning. Later, Pang Gang recalled that when he was watching TV and movies in another time and space, he saw that Western countries also used phalanx formations in modern wars. The method they used was
Very good, that is to use drum beats to conduct.
Several drummers are placed around the phalanx. The drummers use the small drums hanging on their bodies to direct the team to fight according to the commander's orders.
In this way, the sergeants in the phalanx no longer need to look around for the commander, but only need to listen to the drums to know what they should do.
At this time, the soldiers of both the Manchu and Dahua sides were slowly approaching, both holding firecrackers in their hands. This was probably the first time in the world that the enemy and we used firearms on such a large scale.
Kong Youde stood next to the military formation and walked forward with the soldiers he had trained. In the artillery battle just now, he suffered a big loss. His more than one hundred general cannons were fired in several rounds.
Most of them were destroyed after the shelling. If Huang Taiji had not seen that the situation was not good and quickly ordered his gunmen to attack in time, I am afraid that his Han army flag would have continued to be attacked by the opponent's artillery fire.
Because of this, Kong Youde was afraid. These artillery pieces were the result of two years of hard work by Huang Taiji and him, but now they were completely destroyed. He could not afford such a responsibility, so he pinned his hopes on this
In terms of attack, as long as he can inflict heavy damage on the Chinese army, Huang Taiji will not be too harsh on him. After all, Kong Youde has worked hard for the Qing Dynasty over the years without any credit.
With the intention of atonement through meritorious service, Kong Youde commanded 12,000 infantrymen under the Han banner to launch an all-out attack on the Chinese army.
"Hua Hua Hua..."
"Hua Hua Hua..."
The two sides clapped their hands in formation and moved forward resolutely. The Manchu and Qing Dynasties have always attached great importance to the role of spies. During the many years of fighting against the Ming Dynasty, the Manchu and Qing Dynasties sent countless spies and eyes and ears to the territory of the Ming Dynasty. For Dahua,
Huang Taiji, the great enemy of life and death, naturally did not dare to neglect him.
In addition, the Manchu and Qing Dynasties had not only dealt with Dahua once or twice, so the Manchu and Qing Dynasties also had some basic understanding of some of the combat characteristics of the Dahua Army, especially the formation of the Dahua Army. They also learned a few things about it.
For example, they now focus on using fire gunmen as one of them, and even use drum beats to direct battles.
At this time, Wei Jiang, as the commander of the fifth legion, also followed the military formation. Seeing the Manchu fire gunners taking pictures of the same team moving forward, he couldn't help but sneer.
"Handan is learning to walk. They are similar in appearance but not in spirit. It's really ridiculous."
Wei Jiang looked down upon the formation of the Han military flags on the opposite side. Among other things, the firearms he held were beyond the reach of the other side.
Several square formations from both sides slowly approached, and the distance had shortened to about 300 steps. With a burst of fierce and rapid drumbeats, the advancing infantry of the Chinese Army stopped.
"Everyone stop!"
"Get the gun and load it!"
"Crash!"
Following the command, countless people took off their Mini rifles from their shoulders almost at the same time. The riflemen skillfully took out the fixed Mini bullets from their waists. They stuffed them into the barrel from the muzzle, and then asked
The special iron bar was expertly poked into the base a few times, and then the primer was put into the gunpowder warehouse. Finally, the flint was checked again. The whole process took less than twenty seconds.
Seeing that the Dahua Army in front was ready, with countless black guns pointed at itself, Kong Youde couldn't help but feel nervous. Although the Manchu Qing Dynasty could not imitate the Mini rifle, it did not hinder Kong Youde's use of the murderous weapon of the Dahua Army.
Finished.
Kong Youde once tried that with this rifle, people without armor or thin armor can be easily shot at a distance of 300 steps. If they are at a distance of 220 or 250 steps, they can easily shoot.
Wear foot armor or vest with three layers of heavy armor.
The Manchus have been salivating for this sharp firearm for a long time, but no matter how much the Manchus pry, they can't find out the method of making this kind of rifle, especially the secret of drilling rifles in the barrel, let alone the kind of rice.
The manufacturing process of nylon bombs.
Looking at the Han army's infantrymen who were still approaching, Kong Youde was heartbroken and shouted loudly: "Everyone, speed up and move forward!"
The rapid drumbeat became more intense again, and came in bursts. This was the drumbeat that made the soldiers speed up.
Most of the soldiers of the Han Army Banner were former Ming Dynasty officers and soldiers who surrendered to the Qing Dynasty. For most of them, no matter who they served as soldiers, they were just making ends meet. In their hearts, they never had the concept of being loyal to anyone.
, since it was Kong Youde who gave them a bowl of rice, then they would work hard for Kong Youde. In their eyes, the concepts of any country and nation are bullshit.
Now hearing the urging of the drums, the soldiers gradually increased their speed and began to rush forward at a trot.
Seeing the Han army flag on the opposite side speeding up, Wei Jiang looked stern and said nothing. He just took out the scimitar from his waist and shouted loudly: "The first row is ready, raise your guns!"
"Crash!"
The soldiers in the front row began to raise their rifles.
"put....."
A loud and shrill shout rang out, followed by a burst of rhythmic drum beats.
"Bang bang bang..."
Waves of white smoke rose gradually along with countless dull gunshots, and countless gun barrels sprayed out hot projectiles.
"Puff puff puff..."
The phalanx of Han military flags that was trotting forward seemed to have been punched in the chest by a giant. The soldiers running in the front row fell backward in various grotesque ways.
Countless blood flowers, large and small, emerged from the soldiers' bodies. Kong Youde clearly saw that not far from him, a big hole suddenly appeared in the back of a soldier, and blood was like a fountain.
It splashed out, covering several surrounding soldiers.
Kong Youde, who suffered a sudden blow, did not panic. As if everything was expected, he still raised his knife and shouted: "Keep going, don't stop, everyone, don't stop. If you rush seventy steps ahead, you will win."
!”
The Han bannermen were considered well-trained, and they followed Kong Youde's order and continued to rush forward despite the hail of bullets.
"Haha, what a Kong Youde, the soldiers under his command are well trained." Although the infantry who saw the Han army flag were in chaos after being hit a few times by him, they did not collapse but continued to move forward. Wei Jiang sneered.
The order was given: "Don't stop, keep firing!"
"Bang bang bang..."
Continuous gunshots rang out from the position, and bursts of white smoke continued to rise.
The situation of the Han army flag clearly appeared in Huang Taiji's eyes. He put down his telescope and said majestically to the messenger beside him: "Pass my decree and order Dorgon and Duoduo to attack from both wings immediately, Hauge,
You take the Zhenglan flag and defend yourself!"
War is the best place for people to make progress. Based on his own experience, Huang Taiji quickly concluded that if his side could not continue to maintain its offensive posture, then today's sacrifice of Han Junqi would be in vain.
He thought for a while, then turned to Azig and others behind him and said: "Ajige, Daishan, you guys are carrying blue flags and red flags and rushing into the enemy's formation from both sides of the Han army flag. Be sure to disrupt their formation and not let them go."
They shot and killed our troops so calmly. Abatai, you lead the two Mongolian banners as a reserve force, and if any troops are depleted, go immediately to support!" Huang Taiji's words were full of murderous intent.
"twitter!"
Facing the murderous Huang Taiji, no one dared to say anything. They just bowed to the ground and walked away.
Everyone left one by one. Even Hauge, the eldest brother, did not dare to say anything and left in a hurry.
Wang Zhi was unaware of Huang Taiji's deployment of troops and was still paying attention to the battle ahead.
"Sir, it's not good, the entire Tatar army has been dispatched!"
With an exclamation, Wang Zhi looked to both sides and discovered that there were already two groups of Qing troops rushing towards the formation from both sides.
Wang Zhi quickly scanned his telescope and ordered quickly: "It's the Tatars' pure white flag and white flag. Order the cavalry on both sides to quickly contain them. The third legion divided into two square formations to meet them.
You must resist it!”
"yes!"
Attacking from both sides were Dorgon and Duoduo's troops with white and white flags. After receiving Huang Taiji's order, Dorgon knew that he could no longer escape, so he and Duoduo attacked from both sides.
They rushed over, but Dorgon still kept an eye on it. He ordered thousands of soldiers under his banner, as well as Mongolian, Korean and other vassal armies, to charge forward, but he led the vests, infantry and other bannermen of the Zhengbai Banner to follow behind him.
.
When the two flags of Dorgon and Duduo also entered the battlefield, the war officially entered its climax. After a while, when Azig and Daishan's soldiers also joined the battle, the war entered a fever pitch.
stage. The rising white smoke shrouded the mathematical battlefield in all directions.
For the Manchu and Qing dynasties, this was a battle related to the fate of the country. Whether the Manchu and Qing dynasties can continue to be strong or slump from now on, today is the day...
