The Tatar cavalry were like a gust of wind, running away as fast as they came. By the time the soldiers of the Huben Division loaded their bullets again, they had already run more than a hundred meters away. Li Zhi's soldiers were unwilling to let them go, so they took aim and shot, killing them.
He killed more than a thousand slow-running Tatars.
The last cavalry in Duduo's hands was also defeated, and the Tatar army on the east flank was defeated, leaving no more force to join the battle.
At the Tatar Central Army, Prince Duduo of the Manchu Qing Dynasty was ashen as ashes. Unexpectedly, this battle was won first and then defeated, and in the end he lost so miserably. The 40,000-strong army on the east wing had been completely defeated, including 30,000 who suffered heavy losses.
Fire gun soldiers. If this battle is fought like this, how many cow records will the emperor take away from you? How can I, the leader of the flag with a white flag, do it?
Young Duduo's eyes were distracted and he was speechless as he looked at the defeated thousands of cavalry.
Du Du sighed and said, "Prince Yu, shall we withdraw too?"
Duduo was still looking at the battlefield blankly, his face was pale, and his whole person seemed to be petrified.
Du Du did not dare to say anything more and could only stand on the battlefield with Duduo, waiting for Duduo to come to his senses.
Li Zhi looked at the fleeing Qing cavalry and raised his telescope. He searched the battlefield with his telescope, but saw the huge gold-woven dragon scroll behind Duduo. The large scroll dragged its long hem in the air and faced the wind.
Zhaozhan looks quite majestic.
Li Zhi looked carefully through the telescope and saw Duduo, who was wearing gilt armor under the gold-woven dragon tapestry. Through the telescope, Duduo looked like he was only 27 or 28 years old, with a tall nose and big ears, and a two-part beard on his lips.
It seems that because he was very frustrated with the situation of the war, this senior Manchu official stood on the battlefield blankly and said nothing.
In order to keep abreast of the military situation, Li Zhi brought several captured Manchu and Qing Tatar prisoners with him in the army. Li Zhi found a slightly injured Manchu Niulu Zhangjing, showed him the telescope, and asked: "That Zhijinlong
Who is under the banner?"
Niu Lu Zhangjing saw with his own eyes the collapse of the 40,000 troops on the east wing of the Qing Dynasty. At this time, he was even more afraid of Li Zhi's powerful soldiers and horses, fearing that Li Zhi would kill him if he was unhappy. He used a telescope in surprise and saw much more clearly.
Looking at Duo Duo's appearance, he returned the telescope to Li Zhi and said, "That is Prince Yu Duo Duo."
It turned out to be Prince Duduo, the fifteenth son of the wild boar Pinurhachi, a big Tatar leader. Li Zhi pondered for a moment and shouted loudly to Xue Sanku, the acting leader of the vanguard selection group: "Xue Sanku! I want your artillery.
Concentrate fire and bombard the Manchu Tatars under that gold-woven dragon tapestry!"
Xue Sanku held up the telescope and looked at the Zhijin Dragon Paper in the distance, and said with a smile: "Uncle, although the big paper is four miles away from us and beyond the direct range of heavy artillery, we can still hit it if we throw the shells at an elevation angle.
Get those Tartar ones.”
Li Zhi thought for a moment and said, "Blow them up with flower bombs."
The blooming bombs made by Li Zhi were early blooming bombs. Due to technical limitations, the burning speed of the fuse made of black powder was not 100% fixed. In order to prevent the shell from exploding in the barrel and causing detonation, Li Zhi changed the fuse of the shell to
It is made longer, so it often takes a while for the shell to explode after it hits the ground.
If such artillery shells are used dispersedly, the infantry can easily avoid the artillery shells after they hit the ground. But if all seventy artillery shells are fired into a certain area, the effect will be better. Although seventy cannons aimed at one place will make
Seventy rounds of artillery shells repeatedly kill people in a single area, causing the shells' killing efficiency to drop significantly. However, seventy rounds of artillery shells exploding simultaneously in a dense area will leave a small group of enemies in the target area with nowhere to hide, causing damage.
When Li Zhi saw Duduo standing unyielding on the battlefield, he thought of blowing up the Manchu and Qing Prince Yu.
Xue Sanku received the order loudly and went down to operate the artillery. Not long after, seventy 18-pound heavy cannons turned around the muzzle. The artilleryman used musket gauges and other tools to calculate the amount of gunpowder, adjusted the elevation of the cannon, and moved the cannon
Aimed at a target four miles away.
Four miles away, Duduo, Prince of Henan of the Qing Dynasty, had no idea that the danger was coming, and still stood on the battlefield dejectedly.
A swan sound sounded, and the seventy modified heavy artillery all fired their fusilier ignition devices. The huge recoil force pressed hard on the ground through the gun mount, causing the nearby ground to shake violently. The deafening sound of artillery fire
During the attack, seventy rounds of explosive shells rushed out of the muzzle and ran towards the target four miles away.
Seventy cannonballs drew seventy arcs in the air and hit a few tens of meters near Zhijin Longzhu. Most of the cannonballs missed, far away from Duduo's guards and did not cause any damage. About ten of them were shot.
Several cannonballs crashed into Dodo's guard team, killing five or six guards, and stopped not far from Dodo.
Du Du had seen explosive bombs. He was bombed in the camp in Bijiagang all afternoon and was almost killed by explosive bombs. At this time, when he saw more than a dozen shells falling nearby, Du Du immediately rushed to kill him.
Duduo threw himself down and shouted: "The shells will explode! Get down!"
Seeing more than a dozen shells fired into the team, Duduo's guards fled in all directions, out of formation. Duduo lay on the ground in a panic, not daring to breathe. After waiting for six or seven seconds, more than a dozen shells nearby came one after another.
The ground rumbled and exploded. The shock wave of the cannonball exploded with huge sparks, and the iron pellets in the cannonball were shot out.
Hearing the huge roar in their ears, Duduo and Du Du buried their heads and did not dare to get up. According to Du Du's experience, the interval between Li Zhi's two rounds of gunfire was relatively long. After waiting for another ten seconds, Du Du
After confirming that all the fallen shells had exploded and it was safe, he raised his head from the ground.
Du Du shouted loudly: "Prince Yu, this is dangerous, get on your horse and retreat!"
Duduo raised his head when he saw Dudu raising his head. He nodded, got up and ran towards his horse. But after only running a dozen steps, he suddenly heard another scream-like sound breaking through the air.
, another seventy shells hit him.
Duduo and Dudu secretly thought something was wrong, so they quickly fell to the ground to avoid the shells.
This time, Li Zhi's artillery adjusted the firing angle based on the previous shooting, and its accuracy was much better. At least forty shells fell next to Duduo, smashing into the ground hard.
Duduo saw a bomb falling just two steps away from him and crashed into the ground. Duduo felt nervous and immediately jumped up and ran to the other side. After running for five or six steps, Duduo ran to himself.
Beside the war horse, he let out a long breath.
Duduo secretly thought that it would be safe to lie on the ground, so he quickly fell to the ground.
But as soon as he lay down, he saw behind the war horse, just two steps away, a gray exploding shell was firmly stuck on the ground. The fuse of the shell was obviously almost burned out, and black smoke was continuously emitting out.
.
Duduo's eyes widened and he was about to roll away when the bomb exploded.
