Li Zhi originally wanted to tell them that he had built the camp at Qingshan Pass. But after hearing Wang Pu's words, Li Zhi couldn't say this, so he changed his mind and said: "The Tatar camp is specially designed to match the superior firearms, and it is very difficult to attack.
, you must be careful when attacking."
After listening to Li Zhi's words, Hong Chengchou pondered for a long time and said nothing.
Wang Pu laughed loudly and said: "Uncle Xingguo, when you defeated more than 20,000 Qing troops in Fanjiazhuang with 12,000 men, you shocked the world. Although our 40,000 troops are not as powerful as Uncle Xingguo's troops, they are still
The strong armies on the nine sides are now highly motivated and surrounded by 20,000 Tatars. No matter how you look at it, it is a situation of victory but no defeat."
Yang Guozhu stroked his beard and said: "Don't worry, Uncle Xingguo, we will definitely win this village in this battle!"
Li Zhi nodded and said: "It would be a good thing if we could capture it in one fell swoop. However, the Qing army had ten thousand musketry soldiers, shooting muskets from all directions. It would be very difficult for our army to rush through the four ditches. After rushing through the ditches, we would have to cross the wooden thorns.
Areas and caltrops can be used to rush in front of the Tatars and fight hand-to-hand. You still need to think of countermeasures on how to overcome these obstacles."
After hearing this, the generals fell into deep thought.
After thinking for a long time, Wu Sangui said: "To guard against the Tatars' muskets, we can build wooden shield vehicles. The wooden shield vehicles are followed by wooden bridges to cover each other. They go up to build a bridge over the ditch. Then the wooden shield vehicles pass over the bridge and advance to
In the wooden thorn area, soldiers in wooden shield vehicles dig out soil and fill up the wooden thorns."
After hearing Wu Sangui's words, everyone kept nodding. Now the only methods that the generals can think of are wooden shield carts and wooden bridges. These equipment are easy to make. You only need to go to the mountains to cut wood and tie ropes. All that is needed
It's just some artificial intelligence. And it can indeed prevent fire blunderbuss.
Hong Chengchou thought for a long time, waved his hand and said: "Go into the mountains to cut trees, build wooden shields and wooden bridges, and prepare to attack the stronghold."
The generals sang their promises loudly, rode away, and organized their men.

Beile Dudu of Anping of the Manchu Qing Dynasty stood at the forefront of the Qing army's camp. He frowned and said nothing as he looked at the Ming army who were busy building various equipment ten miles away.
The two white flags of the Han army and the real stone pillars on the forehead of the solid mountain stood humbly beside Du Du and said: "Master Beile, Li Zhi of the Ming Dynasty is here. Should we avoid the limelight and abandon this camp?"
The Manchu Han Army Banner was composed of Han people from the Manchu and Qing forces, and initially there was only one banner. As the Qing army entered the pass and plundered the population, the number of Han people increased, and the Han Army Banner continued to expand, becoming two banners, until the current four banners. This
The four flags are respectively the "two yellow flags", the "two white flags", the "two red flags" and the "two blue flags". There is no flag leader among the Han military flags, and each flag has a Gushan Ezhen commander.
In the fourth year of Chongde, after the Qing army entered the pass and was severely damaged by Li Zhi, Huang Taiji began to use firearms to equip the Han army flags with firearms in view of the fact that the Eight Banners Manchurian cavalry and archery were outdated. Thirty thousand people were selected from the two white, two blue and two old Han flags.
, equipped with Jianwei guns and Hongyi cannons. At the same time, in order to fight against Li Zhi's fire guns, Huang Taiji equipped these fire gunmen with heavy armor.
Under Shi Tingzhu, there are now fifteen thousand gunmen. These firearms soldiers are the weapons used by the Manchu Qing Dynasty to fight against Li Zhi.
However, the nobles of the Manchu Qing Dynasty all knew that they had not learned the special skills of Li Zhi's firearms soldiers. Li Zhi's fire blunderbuss could hit one hundred and forty steps, while the Manchu Qing's Jianwei blunderbuss could only hit seventy steps.
When Du Du heard the name Li Zhi, his body trembled subconsciously because of fear.
Du Du was really frightened by Li Zhi.
In the third year of Chongde, Du Du followed Yue Tuo into the pass to plunder, and saw with his own eyes that Yue Tuo's 30,000 troops were wiped out in front of Li Zhi's cannons. In the end, even Yue Tuo himself was killed by Li Zhi. At Qingshan Pass,
Du Du also saw that Dorgon's 70,000-strong army was defeated and fled in front of Li Zhi's camp.
The Qing Dynasty originally had an absolute strategic advantage over the Ming Dynasty. The Ming Dynasty’s capital, Shanxi, and Shandong were accessible to the Qing’s warriors and plundered them at will. Before Li Zhi, the Ming Dynasty’s inland areas were simply the Qing’s warriors.
's paradise.
However, since Yangguli's entire army was annihilated in Tianjin in the first year of Chongde, Li Zhi became the nightmare of the Qing Dynasty, and plundering the fortress became a thing that was not worth the gain. Every time the Qing troops entered the fortress, they were killed by Li Zhi.
The plant suffered heavy losses.
Du Du really didn't want to see Li Zhi again, this person who scared him.
However, this time the emperor mobilized a large army to besiege Jinzhou and prepared for a decisive battle with the Ming army. Since it was a decisive battle, it was inevitable to face Li Zhi. The nobles of the Manchu Qing Dynasty had already had the consciousness to fight Li Zhi again.
Of the 30,000 gunmen trained by the emperor to deal with Li Zhi, 10,000 were under Du Du's command, guarding the Bijia Mountain camp.
Du Du felt guilty and his face turned pale, but he could not find a reason to retreat. If the stronghold was guarded by ten thousand gunmen and could not hold it, how could the decisive battle be fought?
Du Du did not want to show his fear of Li Zhi in front of the Han generals, which would make the Han people under the Han banner realize the weakness of the Manchus. He pretended to laugh lightly and said: "Li Zhi used 10,000 people to fight back then."
This kind of camp withstood Dorgon's attack of 70,000 men. Now that we have learned his techniques of building a fortress, with 20,000 defenders, why should we fear the 50,000 Ming army?"
Ibai, the leader of the Zhengbai Banner of Mongolia, gritted his teeth and looked at the Ming army's flag and said: "Master Beile, that's Li Zhi. I heard that he now has an army of 20,000 people."
When Du Du heard the figure of 20,000 people, his face turned pale again.
The rest of the Ming army was not worth mentioning in Du Du's eyes. The most terrifying thing was Li Zhi's troops. I don't know how many of Li Zhi's 20,000 troops came. If all of Li Zhi's Huben divisions came, his own
Can 20,000 people defend this camp and hold it?
Recalling the sight of Li Zhijun firing hundreds of cannons at that time, Du Du's heart trembled.
However, we cannot retreat without fighting at this time. At this point, we can only trust the emperor's firecrackers and believe that these Han army's firecrackers can withstand Li Zhi's troops.
Du Du seemed to be emboldening himself and said loudly: "We have ten thousand gunmen, which is more than enough to defend the stronghold. Even if Li Zhi comes with twenty thousand people, there is no need to be afraid of him!"
Yibai and Buyendai, the leader of the Eight Banners Mongolian Red Banner, looked at each other with some uneasiness in their eyes.
Du Du shouted loudly: "Shi Tingzhu, how are you training your fire gun soldiers?"
Shi Tingzhu secretly thought that this is the seventh time Du Du has asked this question. Du Du seems to have no idea about this war. But Shi Tingzhu did not dare to show any strangeness on his face. He knelt on the ground and said: "Go back to Mr. Baylor, two white flags."
When a firegun soldier hits a target seventy paces away, nine out of ten shots will hit."
Du Du nodded and said, "That's good, then there's nothing to worry about."
With a wave of his hand, Du Du said: "Push the Hongyi cannon to the emplacement and prepare to meet the enemy."
