The birds of the jungle chirped and flew away, breaking the silence of dawn.

In the jungle behind this group of Ming troops, there are more and more flags, and there are at least thousands of Ming troops following behind!

"Wait for the enemy to approach before firing the gun, listen to this Zhangjing's order!"

Nalan Mingzhu aimed his gun at the Ming army's sentry commander, repeating the order in a low voice.

"Bang!" A gunshot rang out, and the Ming army at the forefront fell into the river on their backs.

Immediately after that, the guns rang out in the forest, and almost all the ambush soldiers opened fire at the same time, and the bullets were fired indiscriminately, splashing small columns of water in the river.

Nalan Mingzhu's face was stunned, and he looked at the gun in his hand, but found that the gun was still there, and it was not his own fire that had gone off.

He was furious and shouted, "What kind of dog day shot the gun!" ”

Nalan Mingzhu's intention is very simple, at least wait for the thousand people of the Ming army to come up and cross the river before harvesting a wave, at that time there is no cover in the river, and you can't lie on your stomach, and the Ming army will become a live target, which can expand the results!

However, as soon as a Ming army squad entered the river to fish, someone opened fire.

Now one of the Ming soldiers was shot and killed indiscriminately, and the others immediately retreated to the river bank when they saw that the situation was not good, lying on the spot, or hiding behind trees and rocks.

The fighter plane was gone all of a sudden, and it was in vain for a long time in the mountains, how could Nalan Mingzhu not be angry!

But when he saw Jialazhang Jingsuo Etu, who was leaning against the rock not far away, he laughed and said triumphantly: "Mingzhu, it's the gun fired by this Zhangjing, how about it, the marksmanship is okay!" ”

Nalan Mingzhu's face turned red with anger, and he said angrily: "Suo Etu, if you dare to disobey the military order, Lao Tzu will kill you immediately!" ”

Suo Etu put on a standard shooting posture, and said with a relaxed expression: "You are Jia Lazhangjing, and so is Lao Tzu, why listen to you!" ”

These two comics are both from the Eight Banners martial arts family, and their fathers are all guys who lick blood on the knife, they are not the image of Wenchen in a film and television in later generations, they all started as martial artists.

The bad situation in the Qing Dynasty delayed their good time of reading and writing, and they had to inherit their father's business and join the army on the battlefield.

"You idiot wait for Lao Tzu, see how Lao Tzu will clean you up when he goes back!"

Nalan Mingzhu was speechless by this soldier, because the Ming army began to counterattack.

"Isn't it the royal family, look at what you can!" Suo Etu muttered.

Nalan Mingzhu is aunt is the biological mother of Huang Taiji, and he married the daughter of Azig, according to the generation, Mingzhu is the cousin and cousin-in-law of the little emperor Fulin of Shunzhi......

Suo Etu has no such relationship, he is Sony's concubine, he has no status in the family, his brother inherited Sony's title, he can only inherit the Niu Lu Zhangjing position that Huang Taiji rewarded Sony.

Therefore, Suo Etu looked down on this airborne prince in his heart, and felt that Mingzhu was on the top by his relationship, and he had no fart skills, so he could only brag.

The Ming army reorganized a little and quickly spread out a skirmish line on the bank of the river to cover it.

The so-called skirmish line is a line formation in which soldiers are spread out into a line formation during battle, and each soldier is separated by a large distance, and the soldiers in the skirmish line can move slightly forward or backward to eliminate each other with firepower in the movement;

The straggler line tactics can better combine firepower, movement, and assault, and can disperse or concentrate troops in a short period of time, so that the marching army formation and the battle formation can be quickly exchanged for offensive and defensive battles.

This is the most advanced tactic of the Ming army, and the Qing army cannot understand it, they only know that the Ming army is doing this, and the Qing army in ambush is not good at gathering fire.

The Ming troops on the other side of the river opened fire and counterattacked.

A banner man of the Eight Banners jumped up from behind the rock, ready to kill a Ming soldier in an extremely coquettish posture.

However, with a muffled sound, the flag man fell to the ground, blood staining his chest red.

The level of firearms training of the Ming army is first-class, how can it allow such a high-level outfit to jump around?

The Eight Banners soldiers who are exposed to cover will definitely suffer a fatal blow, with a death or a headshot!

Nalan Mingzhu shrank his head and shouted: "Hide, hide quickly!" ”

The bullets whizzed straight away, and the blood of the dead flagmen frightened everyone, and many flagmen around the dead were in a daze, clearly feeling the cruelty of the war.

Some of the Eight Banners soldiers who enlisted later had never experienced such a battle, and they usually only suppressed some North Korean rebels, and used the butts of their guns to beat the inferior people who were locked in the throat by their knees, where had they ever seen such a bloody scene?

Two of them threw down their guns on the spot, pulled their legs and ran, and just a few steps away, they were hit by bullets from the Ming army.

The others were so frightened that they lay on the ground, their hands clutching their heads.

The shooting of the rest of the Eight Banners was like a gua sha, and they put a shot without a head, and then quickly hid behind the bunker and pretended to reload.

Suo Etu's marksmanship was quite accurate, and it took three shots in a row to knock down a Ming soldier, and the other Qing soldiers were all chaotic, and it was all up to Meng to miss the shot.

The follow-up Ming army caught up, and under the mobilization of Qi Guangyang, directly dispatched a battalion of 400 troops to cross the river.

The Ming army swimming across the river moved quickly, braving the rain of bullets and bullets of the Qing army, and soon rushed to the opposite river beach.

However, the Ming army that rushed to the river beach actually stood still on the river beach, and some soldiers tried their best, but they slowly sank, and they fell into a slender and imperceptible swamp silt!

A Qing army banner man shouted excitedly: "Minggou is cold, they are in ......"

The villain died from talking too much, and before the words fell, a bullet unceremoniously entered his chest.

The flag man fell to the ground, with an excited smile on his face, and he didn't know what to do.

The Ming army trapped in the swamp did not panic, they relied on their solid knowledge reserves, stabilized their bodies and sank, and the Heding rifle in their hands kept shooting, accurate and ruthless.

A chaotic burst of gunfire rang out, and a few more excited Eight Banner soldiers were shot and died, and the rest of the Eight Banner soldiers were so frightened that they cowered behind the rocky mounds and did not dare to raise their heads.

The Ming troops on the river beach showed great discipline, and they still maintained their battle formation, holding and shooting with Heding rifles.

Some of the soldiers, who sank deeper and deeper into the swamp, shouted with a death-defying coldness on their faces: "Long live Your Majesty!" Daming Wansheng! ”

Nalan Mingzhu looked at the Ming army on the river beach in a daze, and there was an unconcealable shock in his heart, he muttered: "With such an army, how can I be the enemy of the Qing Dynasty!" ”

"Bang! Bang! Bang! ”

There was a roar on the other side of the river, followed by a dull roar, and the forest where the Qing army was hiding continued to explode like flowers.

"The Ming army has opened fire?!"

Nalan Mingzhu looked left and right, and really didn't understand, where did the Ming army get the artillery? I didn't look at it!

On the other side of the river, the Ming army erected a row of light mortars, which can also be called grenadiers.

This light mortar, weighing less than ten pounds, can be carried by individual soldiers.

Although the power is not strong, the rate of fire is fast, and twenty or thirty shells can be fired in one minute, so I ask you if you are afraid!

The place where the Qing army was ambushed exploded all at once, blooming everywhere, and the rocks and broken trees that were blown up roared down to attack the Qing army in ambush.

Where had Nalan Mingzhu seen such a scene, his face twitched with fright, and he shouted: "Withdraw!" ”

The Eight Banners Army, which was originally suppressed by the Ming army's firepower and couldn't raise its head, immediately dispersed in a hurry after hearing the order.

In fact, before Mingzhu gave the order, dozens of them had already secretly run.

This failed ambush battle allowed the Eight Banners Army, which had not experienced a war for a long time, to witness the strength of the Ming army again.

This strength is not only manifested in the equipment, but also in the discipline and spirit!

Those Ming troops who fell into the quagmire, they showed the spirit of seeing death as home, which made Nalan Mingzhu deeply appreciate the horror of the Ming army!

The Ming army seems to have all the equipment, good training, high morale, strict discipline, and iron-blooded spirit.

And the Eight Banners Army is inferior everywhere!

What's worse is that the Eight Banners Army defending Xuanzhou is still at an absolute disadvantage in terms of strength.

Nalan Mingzhu really doesn't know how to fight this battle!

On the way back, Nalan Mingzhu, a good general of the Qing Dynasty, made a bold act.

He announced to his subordinates: "This encounter is a great victory for the Yellow Flag!" The Eight Banners Army has a great victory! The first battle of the Qing Dynasty was won! ”

Nalan Mingzhu can only use this way to motivate the Eight Banners Army, as for lying about the victory is a capital crime, not to mention the military discipline of the Qing Dynasty is now any virtue, has anyone reported it? Is it admitted above?

An hour later, Zhenghuang Banner returned to Xingfeng Mountain, and the news of the victory of Yuefeng Mountain quickly spread throughout the Qing army's position, and the Eight Banners Army was jubilant and morale was high.

Even the demoralized Qing army, which had retreated from the Tieshan defensive line, was encouraged.

Sure enough, as Nalan Mingzhu thought, although coach Zu Zerun was a little skeptical, he still acquiesced.

Zu Zerun knew that the upcoming battle would be extremely tragic, however, whether it was the Manchurian Eight Banners or the Han Eight Banners, or even the North Korean Flag and the Dongying Banner as cannon fodder, he was not mentally prepared for this.

The Qing army was inferior everywhere, and if the morale collapsed again, this battle would not be fought.

As the commander-in-chief, he must first improve his morale and stabilize the morale of the army!

Even if it is a false victory, it must be used, which is exactly the effect that Zu Zerun needs.

As a matter of fact, this false victory covered up the weakness and backwardness of the Eighth Banner Army, and it was nothing more than self-deception.

In the face of the next battle of Xuanzhou, the Eight Banners Army, which had just regained some self-confidence, under the fierce blows of the Ming army, could be described as a river of blood, corpses all over the field, heavy casualties, and miserable!
