"Alright, let's get ready for battle." Lu Xiangsheng turned his head to look at Cao Wenzhao and said.

In fact, now they don't need to shoot with a platoon of guns. Although the formation is still training, it is not as strict as before, and everyone does not train on weekdays to walk forward with guns.

As for pikemen, shieldmen, and archers, these classes are no longer there, and they are all canceled.

Now in their squad, there are only three arms: artillery, cavalry, and infantry.

Artillery is artillery, but also rocket artillery.

The cavalry was the lancers.

The infantry used all the same spears. And, of course, there's a hand-cranked minigun, which is pretty cool.

For the infantry, combat was to move forward at a neat pace, with the lancers roaming ahead, many places in the formation had been pulled apart, and the gun carriages were pushed up.

Soldiers pushing boxes of shells followed, while soldiers with mortars hid in the crowd. Of course, it is not hidden, according to the current system, one hundred households are equipped with one mountain cannon, ten mortars, and five hand-cranked revoltor machine guns.

In addition, Lu Xiangsheng also has a thousand households of artillery and a thousand households of rockets.

The 1,000 artillery units were equipped with 50 mountain artillery pieces and 150 rocket artillery pieces.

This kind of equipment is made by working overtime in the Baigong Institute. A large part of the money His Majesty got from Jiangnan went to the Baigong Academy, which was made day and night by countless factories.

In addition to the firearms manufacturing factory of Hyakkoin, there are various supporting factories, and they have been busy manufacturing for a long time.

And the pro-army side has been constantly training. What kind of laws these things have, these pro-army people know very well in their hearts. It's just that for the first time in actual combat, they are still very excited.

Soon, Huang Taiji's scouts appeared in front of him.

Huang Taiji on the other side didn't seem to have the intention of waiting, and directly brought someone to kill.

According to the scout's report, there were more than 40,000 men, of which 20,000 were cavalry, and the rest were all infantry.

This should be all the money that Huang Taiji can dig out, and it is estimated that he has gone to the forest to the north to arrest people in the past few years. But even so, there are only more than 40,000 people, and they are not taken seriously by Lu Xiangsheng at all.

"After this battle, Liaodong will be peaceful." Lu Xiangsheng looked at Cao Wenzhao and said.

"Our men are ready, waiting for them to attack." Cao Wenzhao said.

At this time, the Ming army had already set up a formation on its side, the artillery Qianhe had already lined up the array on the right side, the rockets Qianhe was also ready in the back, the cavalry pressed the sides, and the infantry also raised their rifles.

On the opposite side of the lineup, Huang Taiji looked at the Ming army in front of him and frowned.

In the past few years, he has been lying on his salary, tightening his belt and constantly strengthening his armament. In addition to buying equipment from the Ming army, he was also constantly forging new equipment.

Whether it was a large artillery cannon or a cast iron cannon that he bought, he cast them all. Although the steel cannon cannot be manufactured for the time being, the people on their side have also researched a lot of things, such as an improved copper-iron alloy cannon, which has a longer range and is more powerful.

Huang Taiji cast more than 70 copper-iron alloy cannons, in order to teach the Ming army a lesson this time.

But when Huang Taiji saw the Ming army, he still didn't understand, were those people the army of the Ming Dynasty?

They had no armor on them, just plain leather armor and a helmet on their heads. Other than that, there is nothing else. Is this to be sent to death?

However, the artillery of the Ming army is still sharp, look at the muzzle on the gun carriage. It's just that a little artillery, can it have that long range?

Is this a degradation of the Ming army? Or is it too bold and arrogant?

Look at such artillery, it is not its own opponent at all.

Huang Taiji has been making comparisons in his heart. In fact, from the perspective of caliber, the mortars of the Ming army are not as good as Huang Taiji's artillery at all, after all, the caliber is here, and the small appearance towards the sky is really vulnerable.

No matter what the Ming army does, Huang Taiji feels that he will definitely be able to win this time.

As long as he can defeat the Ming army in front of him and annihilate them, he can turn back to deal with another Ming army, and even directly recover Jianningwei.

After taking Jianningwei, he could further sweep away the Ming Dynasty's power in Liaodong.

"Ready." Huang Taiji said as he held up the knife in his hand.

The cavalry on both sides pressed quickly and slowly lifted the horse's hooves.

The artillery next to him also had torches ready and ready to fire at any time. As long as an order is given, it will be like cannonballs flying together, and it will definitely be able to beat the Ming army to the ground.

And in the lineup of the Ming army.

Lu Xiangsheng looked at the front expressionlessly.

Cao Wenzhao turned his head to look at Lu Xiangsheng, and said with some loss: "I'm afraid there is no way to kill again, everyone has some regrets." ”

When he said this, Cao Wenzhao was obviously a little lost.

He was able to find comfort from Lu Xiangsheng, after all, the two can be said to be sympathetic to each other, they have been practicing martial arts since they were children, and they have never slackened.

Cao Wenzhao's big gun, it was hard work. Lu Xiangsheng is the same, this guy's big knife is also practiced with great strength.

But after this battle, no one will remember their spears and broadswords, and I am afraid that no one will pay attention to them anymore.

These things are useless, and it is time for everyone to start using muskets and artillery.

"That's a good thing." Lu Xiangsheng said in a deep voice: "Because this proves that no one can be the enemy of the Ming Dynasty." ”

"When firearms continue to be popularized and appeared, and individual bravery is compressed, the science and technology economy and population heritage of the Ming Dynasty can be quickly reflected. In this era, what Daming is about to burst out is a power that makes everyone tremble! ”

After speaking, Lu Xiangsheng said directly: "It's almost, let's do it." ”

Cao Wenzhao nodded.

The herald flag next to it waved.

Subsequently, at the back of the position, the rocketeers pulled the lead.

"Bang! Boom! Boom! "The rockets took off with their tails in tow.

After the replacement of the new gunpowder and the installation of a fixed tail, the basic speed and range of the rocket have been greatly improved, and the most important thing is that the stability has been improved.

The rocket spun and flew headlong in the opposite direction.

At the same time, the mountain cannon on the right side of the thousand households also fired.

According to their combat regulations, as long as the artillery is fired in advance, it will be fired three rounds of shells.

They quickly pulled the rope, and the shells flew out with a "bang". Then they began to reload and fire again.

"Boom! Bang! Boom! ”

The sound of the explosion became the mainstream in front of him, and in an instant, the sound shook the universe, the mountains and rocks splashed, the earth and rocks collapsed, and countless figures were directly blown into the sky.

All of a sudden, chaos ensued.

On the battlefield, the smoke of gunpowder was filled with flames, and no one knew what was happening.

Lu Xiangsheng held the telescope in his hand, looked at all this in front of him, shook his head and said, "Press it." ”

Three rounds of rockets and three rounds of mountain artillery have basically solved a lot of problems. At the same time, the infantry, who pressed up, quickly raised their spears and opened fire whenever they saw a standing figure.

"Bang! Bang bang! Bang bang! ”

The gunfire instantly rang out, and the bullets shot into the smoke in front of them like no money, and the screams rang out again.

If there is a moving figure on the ground, they will also go up and make up for a shot.

The mortars followed, were quickly placed, and then fired.

The hand-cranked machine gun also opened fire at this time, and wherever there was still a dense crowd, it was fired at it.

All of a sudden, gunfire erupted on the battlefield.

The mountain artillery did not fire any more, and the rocket artillery stopped.

The basic method of warfare is artillery bombardment, and infantry washing the floor.

It was a one-sided battle, and the battle that Huang Taiji had envisioned was over before it even began.

His artillery was simply vulnerable in front of Daming's artillery, and before it reached the range of their artillery, Daming's side had already opened fire, and the focus was on his artillery position.

The rockets and mountain artillery each fired one round, and Huang Taiji's entire artillery position fell into a sea of fire and was directly blown into the sky.

Although some people took advantage of the chaos to fire two cannons, they were useless at all, and they did not cause any damage at all. Then Huang Taiji's artillery position was directly muted, and there was no movement.

On the side of the Ming army, the mountain artillery and rockets smashed down on Huang Taiji's army, and the cavalry didn't have time to turn around, let alone the infantry behind, it was impossible to escape.

After a round of fighting, the Ming army began to extend the artillery fire. Before Huang Taiji could react, mortars and renotor machine guns opened fire.

At the same time, the spears of the infantry were fired.

The bullets whizzed over, and the screams around them formed in an instant.

Huang Taiji's mind was confused, and he didn't react at all. The people around him crushed him under his body, hoping to protect him.

But even so, a cannonball exploded next to Huang Taiji, and several people lying on him were blown away. Huang Taiji's whole person was also thrown out, and his body was also injured, and blood flowed everywhere.

Huang Taiji lay there as if he didn't feel it at all.

After a while, Huang Taiji felt someone pull him and seemed to pull him back.

Huang Taiji raised his eyelids and looked at it, and found that it was the eldest brother Daishan. At this time, Dedaishan was also seriously injured, and the whole person was crying out anxiously to himself.

Huang Taiji came back to his senses at this time, and when he saw Dai Shan, tears flowed down instantly, and said, "Big brother, how can this be? It shouldn't be like this, it shouldn't be like this! ”

Dai Shan's face was also pale, and he didn't know why this was the case.

This time it was even worse than the last time, and before the battle started, his side had already been defeated, and he didn't even touch the door of the Ming army.
