"Your Majesty, no!"

"The warning signs of civil engineering changes are not far away."

"Wang Chengen, you traitor!"

"I beg Your Majesty to think twice."

Outside the Zhengyang Gate, many red, green, and green officials bowed down in front of the army and wept and wailed, blocking Wang Xiao from leaving Beijing.

Since the news of Huang Taiji's entry into the customs came, Wang Xiao, who had been waiting for a long time, arranged for Sun Chengzong to supervise government affairs, and Zhang Weixian to control the city defense. And he himself went out of the city with the new army to meet the battle.

The ministers who got the news were frightened and hurried over to try to persuade Wang Xiao not to take the risk.

The most intuitive example they cite is the Tumu Fort Change.

The ministers said that they could issue an edict to the king of Qin in all parts of the world. As soon as the army arrived, the Manchu soldiers and horses naturally retreated without a fight.

Wang Xiao scoffed at this statement.

What retreats without a fight, it's not that people have grabbed enough, and they have enough to go. Don't put gold on your face when you're fine.

For Wang Xiao, the current Manchu Qing is not as strong as it was a few years later. There's never been a better time to crush them.

At this time, North Korea had not yet been conquered by the Manchus, Dongjiang Town was still involved in the power of the Manchus, Lin Dan Khan of Mongolia was still persevering against Huang Taiji before he died, and his wives did not rush to Huang Taiji with tribal cattle and sheep.

This is the best time, and Wang Xiao is unwilling to miss it.

"Jinyiwei stepped forward and set them all up." Wang Xiao was not in the mood to play these tricks with these turbans, so he asked Jinyiwei to clear the road and immediately rushed out.

Sun Chuanting's new army had 30,000 men, and in addition to the musketeers, there were more than 200 artillery pieces.

In addition, there are Cao Wenzhao's uncles and nephews, Zhao Shujiao, Man Gui and others' soldiers and horses. The total strength was close to 50,000.

This is the most powerful army of the Ming Dynasty at this time, and it rushed straight to Zunhua under the leadership of Wang Xiao, who was personally conquered.

After the Manchu Qing Dynasty entered the customs, the speed of action was very fast, and the troops had already arrived at the city of Zunhua in less than ten days.

In history, Zhao led the troops to the rescue, but the whole army was wiped out under the city of Zunhua. Many civil and military officials in the city defended the city, and the city was ruined. The decisive battle site planned by Wang Xiao was under Zunhua City.

Huang Taiji, who got the news, called everyone to discuss. Many of the Beylers and Mongol Taiji were in favor of fighting this battle, because they were also aware of the Tumubao Change.

At this time, not long after Huang Taiji ascended the throne, the Manchu Qing Dynasty was still the era when the four major Baylors sat together.

Although he doubted why Wang Xiao had the courage to fight, at this time, neither the Manchus nor the Mongols had grabbed anything good, and he would not be able to control the situation if he retreated.

After some discussion, Huang Taiji summoned all the soldiers and horses to gather under the city of Zunhua to prepare for a decisive battle with Wang Xiao.

The Manchu and Mongol alliances were full of confidence, because they had never lost a field battle with the Ming army after the Battle of the Hunhe River.

Not to mention 50,000 people, more soldiers and horses have been defeated.

The Manchu side had a lot of troops, adding up to 70,000 or 80,000 horses. The two sides lined up outside Zunhua City, and from the top of the city, the black pressure covered the field of vision.

The combat thinking of the Qing soldiers was very simple, first using cannon fodder to consume the medicine of the Ming army's muskets and artillery, then the strong soldiers rushed into battle to open the gap to defeat the Ming army, and finally the cavalry followed the charge to reap the results.

The tactics were not complicated, but when they fought in the field with the Ming army, they did win many battles. The Houjin soldiers and horses under Zunhua City also did the same.

In the past, this kind of cannon fodder was used to arrest people in all directions, but now they have just entered the customs not long ago, and it is still this season, so they have not been able to arrest many people at all. The cannon fodder had to be served by the Mongols and those clothed minions.

They said that they were allies, but in fact, on the Manchu side, there was no difference between the Mongols and the Baoyi.

Thousands of cannon fodder lined up in a loose formation and slowly walked towards the Ming army's large array, followed by the elite in armor ready to charge into battle.

Seeing the Ming army on the opposite side from a distance, he fired the cannon, and the bloated Huang Taiji smiled and waved his horsewhip, "But that's it." ”

Everything in front of him is no different from the previous battle with the Ming army, they all start to shoot out firearms from a distance, and when they are really close, they become useless waste materials. Huang Taiji, who was still a little nervous before, finally put his heart in his stomach.

Then the heart was lifted again.

With the adoption of new techniques and a new regulatory system, the quality of firearms used by the Ming army soared to unprecedented levels.

It may not be as terrible as Qin Shi, but the quality has definitely been greatly improved.

The new artillery not only hits far, but also greatly improves the life of the barrel. Even if there were no flowering shells, the casualties of the cannon fodder were rapidly rising after the 200 artillery pieces were fired round by round.

Huang Taiji, who was watching the battle from the rear, sank his eyes, and after a while, he saw that the cannon fodder queue was about to collapse, and he couldn't help but wave his horsewhip and shout an assault.

The Overseer used sharp blades and bows to force the cannon fodder to speed forward, and the elite of the Eight Banners who followed behind also raised their shields and prepared to launch a decisive charge.

The Eight Banners Cavalry and the Mongol Cavalry were essentially light cavalry, and their combat methods were not heavy armor or light cavalry guerrillas. Their main mode of combat is to approach and dismount on horseback, throw a wave of axes, hammers, etc., and charge directly on foot with strong armor.

The cannon fodder in front was finally dispersed, and tens of thousands of elites drawn from the Eight Banners faced the thick and dense array of musketeers.

In many previous wars, tens of thousands of elite armor were enough to defeat these Ming troops. But now they are facing an army that has completed modern training and equipment in the true sense.

The musketeers in the front row raised their guns and took aim, opened fire at the command of the drums.

After the shot, no one was going to confirm the results, but turned and walked straight to the back of the queue while starting to reload.

The second platoon followed, and after firing, it also turned and walked to the back of the line. Then came the third row, the fourth row.

This is the gyro shot, which is able to maintain the density and speed of the fire delivery to a great extent. If you don't use powerful artillery to destroy it remotely, the army in the face of the cold weapon era is completely invincible.

During the Battle of Bali Bridge, the Mengqing cavalry, who mustered unprecedented courage, launched a frantic charge. But the result was a fiascous defeat in the face of intensive musket fire.

The Mongol and Qing soldiers and horses suffered countless losses, while the Anglo-French army lost no more than a few people in battle.

This is the real combat effectiveness comparison between the modern firearms army and the army of the cold weapon era.

In the face of continuous and intensive attacks, the Manchu elites who rushed into battle fell to the ground in pieces like cutting wheat.

The martial arts they were proud of had no chance to be displayed at all, and the sturdy armor that claimed to have been unscathed by dozens of arrows was no more solid than a piece of paper in front of musket buckshot.

Huang Taiji, who saw this scene in the rear, vomited blood directly.

In the face of everyone's hard persuasion, retreat temporarily, and then find a way to persuade later. Huang Taiji, who had a hideous face, directly waved his whip and whipped it indiscriminately.

"There is no future! If we don't defeat them today, we'll all die without a place to bury! ”

I have to say that Huang Taiji's strategic vision is still good.

He could see the terrible force in front of him, and once he retreated, it would be a retreat until there was no way back.

Rather than waiting for Shengyang City to be surrounded by many artillery pieces and bombarded, it is better to fight to the death now.

The Manchu mentality is still that of a bandit group, the kind that runs away if you can't beat it. Only Huang Taiji has a strategic vision and knows that he can't retreat at all, and retreating is just a matter of lingering.

With his prestige and skill, Huang Taiji, who made up his mind, successfully persuaded everyone to fight to the death like in the Battle of the Hunhe River.

After mobilizing again, the Mongols and the clothed minions began to charge as cannon fodder on horseback. Followed by the Eight Banners of Soldiers and Horses.

Huang Taiji saw that the Ming army's firearms were shooting fast, so he directly gave up the foot rush and switched to direct cavalry charge.

Although they have summoned the greatest courage, even many Mongolian Taiji, Manchu Beile Beizi or something personally went into battle. But the results have not changed in the slightest.

In the face of blazing buckshot, everyone is equal.

As Sanbeile Mang Gurtai was beaten into a sieve and fell off his horse, the Houjin soldiers and horses who had been fighting for a long time could no longer bear it.

The Houjin soldiers, who are known as invincible, fled all over the mountains. They threw away their weapons and took off their armor. I hated my parents for giving them two legs, and they flocked to the north like crazy.

Wang Xiao put down the monocular in his hand and looked sideways at the many eager generals around him, "It's your turn." ”

Man Gui, Cao Wenzhao, Lu Xiangsheng, Zhao Shujiao and others responded loudly.

They led tens of thousands of highly excited Ming cavalry to fight from behind the musketeers, and swept the entire battlefield like a whirlwind.

At the same time, the Ming army in Zunhua City also opened the city gate and killed the fleeing Houjin soldiers and horses.

Wang Xiao didn't continue to watch the battle in the back, because the overall situation had been decided.

Entering Zunhua City, Wang Xiao went straight to rest and waited for the return of the results.

It was not until the next day that the energetic cavalry returned one after another.

This time, the Manchu Qing Dynasty encountered a devastating blow to enter the customs, and there was not one person in ten who could escape back. From Huang Taiji downwards, almost all of them were spared, either killed in battle or captured.

The main male force on which the Manchu Qing relied for survival was almost wiped out.

The reason why it is so miserable is because after getting the news, the Guan Ning army immediately sent troops to beat the water dogs, and chased them all the way from the pass to the foot of Shengyang City. Mei Zizi asked the court for a reward.

Wang Xiao left Sun Chuanting as the governor of Liaodong, and took the new army of the Shenji Battalion out of the customs to sweep the Manchu Qing.

The Manchus, who had lost most of their young men and almost all of their top positions, had no resistance and were completely wiped out in just a few months. A small number of fugitives fled into the deep mountains and old forests, and did not dare to come out for more than 100 years.

Sun Chuanting, who returned from Liaodong, served as the governor of the five provinces and led the new army to pacify the displaced people from all walks of life.

Behind them were the huge Tuntian Army, which cultivated high-yielding crops such as potatoes, sweet potatoes, and corn. By the time the harvest came, the displaced people had disappeared almost instantly.

With grain you can eat your stomach, and with fields you can cultivate. No one wants to be a precarious outcast.

On this day, Wang Xiao watched Lu Xiangsheng send a letter requesting to send a fleet to Dongying to discuss with the Tokugawa shogunate about the purchase of grain and the opening of the door, and wrote on it that the whole fleet was painted black and hung a black flag, and went as a black ship fleet.

Satisfied, Wang Xiao went to find Hokusai, but suddenly received a system notification that had disappeared for a long time.

"Hokusai's wish has been granted, and the executor can choose to return to the Overworld. Forced repatriation will occur after 24 hours. ”

Wang Xiao paused, and finally remembered that he was a systematic man.

Hokusai's prayer to relieve the internal and external troubles of the Great Ming has been achieved at this time. Now it's time to leave.

Wang Xiao took a deep breath, and after a moment, he walked towards Hokusai's palace.
