Chapter 196: Hunting the Female Zhen 16
Glancing around at them, Huang Taiji frowned slightly and said, "If it is in the open area of the plain, and the Ming Kingdom has no cavalry, we can use a force to contain it head-on, and then make a big detour to hit its flank or tail, and the opponent's firearms must be used intensively, and we can't deal with such an attack." ”
Hearing this, Nuer Hachi raised his head and looked at the entire battlefield in the distance, the terrain here was flat but flat, but it was not open, the beach, the Ningyuan Acropolis, the other party's camp, and some hillsides, these things were scattered in all directions, almost occupying this corridor.
Roundabout attacks won't work here. Nuer Hachi came to this conclusion at once, and with some disappointment, he refocused his attention on Huang Taiji and turned the Great Khan back on, Huang Taiji continued.
"The terrain here is special, and the opponent has a favorable position, so we can't go around the rear or hit its flanks, so we can only charge with cavalry head-on."
"Isn't it okay to use a step armor?" Hearing this, Dai Shan couldn't help but ask. The Jurchen is a fishing and hunting nation, his riding and archery is actually not very good, but relying on his own physique to open and open a hard bow, this can suppress the Mongols, what they are really doing is the heavy infantry charge.
The hard bow opens the way, and the heavy armor charges, this is the magic weapon of the Jurchen invincibility, as for the cavalry, it is used by them to rush and impact the enemy's infantry formation, not to play horse archery at all.
"With the power of the Ming army's firearms, the heavy armor is simply taken in the past, even if it is a bow and arrow to fight back, the other party is a firearm, which can continue to fire, and open a hard bow, most people have no strength after firing the bow ten times, so it is too much of a loss." Huang Taiji did not hesitate to refute Dai Shan's proposal.
"In the face of such fire, we can only use cavalry to charge, divide the cavalry into dozens of units, 100 people per share, and disperse and continue to charge, so that the power of the Ming firearms can be diluted, so that the cavalry can get close, as long as the cavalry can get close, and then ......"
Huang Taiji didn't finish the rest of the words, but everyone present understood that with the hand-to-hand combat ability of the scum of the Ming people, as long as the Jurchen cavalry passed, they could fight ten at a time.
"Okay, that's it." Nuer Hachi said excitedly, and then, he immediately ordered, ordering each banner to divide a part of the men and horses to form a commando team, as for the leader of the team this time, he did not send Baylor, he really can't afford to die.
It's just that without waiting for them to get ready, Yulin Jun's side took the lead in starting to move, only to see that he thought that there was no one in the Ningyuan Acropolis, this is the main gate opened, and some people came out one after another from inside. At first, the Jurchens didn't know who they were, but when the number of people reached and they gathered together, their faces suddenly changed.
"Damn, it's the cavalry of the Ming Kingdom!" Listening to the neighing of horses faintly in the wind, Huang Taiji's face was ugly, what did the other party do when he hid the cavalry in the first place? What are you trying to do with letting the cavalry come out at this moment?
Huang Taiji's gaze swept back and forth, and suddenly, his attention was attracted by a dark object at the head of Ning Yuan's acropolis. There were some soldiers there, and they seemed to be moving something. As the sheltered thatch was lifted, Huang Taiji finally saw what was placed at the head of the city.
The cannon is a cannon, although it is not the huge size of the red-clothed cannon, but as long as it is a cannon, the Jurchens are very afraid and hateful.
"How can there be cannons there!" Huang Taiji asked in surprise, the fear in his heart made his face almost distort, looking like a demon.
"No...... I don't know! "Dai Shan also panicked, obviously it was the right time for me to loot everything there, there was nothing, why did a few cannons suddenly pop up?
"Oh no, run!" Huang Taiji exclaimed, turned over and ran backwards, the others were stunned for a moment, and then reacted, they were within the range of the other party, so close to the distance, there was no need to aim at all, and they could directly hit this side with one shot.
They erected all kinds of flags and big bags here, eye-catching and unusual, as long as the Ming army was not blind, they would definitely take this place as the primary target.
"Gather all the troops and retreat!" Nu'er Hachi roared and ran backwards first. No wonder they were so panicked, they had been confronting Xiong Tingbi for more than a year, and they had already learned the power of the red-clothed cannon, the heavy cannonball, after hitting it, directly ploughed a blood mark in the crowd, the Jurchen warriors faced such a scene, there was no way to deal with it, they could only helplessly wait for the favor of fate and pick up a life.
Although Nuer Hachi didn't know what the range of the cannon at the head of the city was, the distance of 300 meters was definitely within the range of the other party.
"Damn, damn it." Nu'er Hachi's mouth roared angrily, but even he didn't know what he was venting.
Cannons appeared at the head of the city, which immediately made the Jurchen formation open chaotically, and the entire Eight Banners cavalry was turning their horses' heads, trying to stay away from here, but the panicked emotions quickly spread, making the entire Jurchen Eight Banners faintly lose control and couldn't move for a while.
"All under my command!" The first to react was Huang Taiji, who saw him roar again and again, and even drew his sword and killed a few tooth soldiers who were desperately fleeing, so that the entire army could stabilize and evacuate in turn.
However, it was too late.
Behind Zhu Youxiao's infantry phalanx, the barrel of the half-body twelve-pound cannon towered into the sky, and the artilleryman was lifting the gun carriage, constantly adjusting the angle, and after a while, Xu Wen, who stayed here to command, ran to report, "Your Majesty, the elevation angle of the three artillery positions has been adjusted, whether to open the artillery, please instruct?" ”
"Let's shoot!" Zhu Youxiao said leisurely.
"Yes!" Xu Wen said yes loudly, and then asked the staff officer around him to give an order, only to see the staff officer shaking the flag in his hand and issuing the order to open fire.
"Fire!"
The commanders of the three positions shouted, and with their orders, the artillerymen lit the shallow arquebuses stuck in the tail of the cannons with torches.
Laugh at!
The fire rope quickly ignited and then ignited the gunpowder in the barrel.
Rumble!
It was as if the whole world shook, and countless roaring sounds sounded at the same time, gathering together, giving people a great shock, and hundreds of black black dots appeared in the air at the same time, crossing a beautiful parabola, and falling in the position of the Jurchens
Bang bang bang!
The thick projectile landed on the hard ground, but began to bounce, and this is the most frightening place of the solid projectile, no one knows where he will land next time, and he does not know what kind of force he will bear after landing, bouncing from that side, everyone can only wait blankly, praying for God's blessing.
Countless blood marks were ploughed open in the Jurchens, and the stumps and broken arms flew in all directions, and in some cases, they were directly cut off by the waist and turned into two sections.
The Jurchen is too close to Zhu Youxiao, at a distance of 300 meters, there is no need to test the firing at all, just adjust the approximate angle, and launch it directly, such a large camp, you can hit people anywhere.
