Chapter 564: Can't Fight
Bala and Tun, a name that could not be smaller, a place that would not have been noticed at all in the past, has become the focus of everyone at this moment, because it is here that the 60,000 Jungar army and the 14,000 Fu Han army fought fiercely here, and died and destroyed here.
"Whoosh-whoosh-"
"Bang-bang-"
When the sound of the bow and arrow fired and the sound of the musket of the Fu Han army were intertwined, what constituted was a death, but in the tragic battle between the two sides, the bow and arrow could not compare to the power of the musket after all, and a large number of Jungar soldiers were hit by the projectiles of the Fu Han army and fell in a pool of blood.
Ulunbu held the musket in his hand steadily, his face full of murder for the enemy, he was eager to kill all the Dzungars on the opposite side, so that the steppe would become the territory of His Majesty the Emperor.
As a Mongol from the Monan steppe, Ulunbu was originally just an ordinary herdsman, and the only thing he did every day was to feed his master's livestock well, so that he and his family could get enough food to maintain the minimum subsistence level.
But since His Majesty the Great Chu in the south became the Great Khan of the Mongols, life soon became different, Ulumbu was rescued by the Great Chu, he and the other serfs became free men, and even had the honor to join the first independent division of the steppe and became a warrior for the Great Chu.
Warrior, what a beautiful noun!
Ulumbu's heart was filled with joy, for in the old days a lowly slave like him could not have been a true warrior, and had only been worthy to serve the animals, and to have only a whip in his hand, not a sword and a spear.
However, now he has become a warrior who fought for His Majesty the Emperor, and was rewarded by His Majesty the Emperor for this - a full twenty acres of fertile pasture, as well as dozens of sheep and a few cows, of course, he needs to pay the price of serving the Khan for ten years, and he can only become the master of this pasture after ten years.
Therefore, in Ulunbu's heart at this time, even his parents are not as good as the great Emperor's Majesty, because his parents can only let him become a serf, but His Majesty the Emperor can give him pasture, cattle and sheep, so that he no longer has to worry about his livelihood, and this alone is enough for him to work for the emperor.
"Bang-"
Ulunbu pulled the trigger, and soon a smile of surprise bloomed on his face, because just now he saw with his own eyes that a Dzungar soldier in front of him had fallen to the ground with blood blooming on his chest, his first trophy on the battlefield.
With this trophy, he will be able to get ten more acres of pasture and ten sheep in the future!
"Whoosh-poof-"
Just when Ulunbu was jubilant, a bowstring flicked, and I saw a feather arrow directly out of his forehead, causing Ulunbu to fall directly under the horse, and the whole person was out of breath when he saw it.
"Hmph, damn slut!"
Holding the bow and arrow in his hand is the famous warrior Dormu of the Zungar Khanate today, I saw that he was bending the bow and arrows, his hand was like a meteor, shooting seven arrows one after another, piercing the heads of the seven Fu Han soldiers, but it caused a shout in the Jungar army, and the morale of the Jungar soldiers suddenly rose a lot.
In war, although the courage of one man cannot change the pattern of the entire war, it can arouse the courage in the hearts of many people, thus forming a chain reaction.
And this scene naturally fell in the eyes of Galdan Tseling, he was naturally overjoyed, and immediately said loudly, "Dolmu is worthy of being the warrior of my Jungar Khanate, and Ben Khan should greatly reward him!" β
Da Ce Ling Dun Dobu suddenly had a smile on his face, and said, "The minister also knew the prestige of this person in the past, and wanted to ask for this person from Dawaqi, but Dawaqi was so stingy that he was not willing to agree to the minister's request at all. β
"Hmph, who doesn't love such a warrior? Even the personal guards of Ben Khan's Great Tent are at this level, and Dawazi is unwilling to give it to you, it's too normal! β
Gardanze laughed loudly, seeing that the battle situation was stabilizing, he also relaxed a lot in his heart, and there was a little smile on his face at the moment.
However, just when the Jungar monarchs and ministers were overjoyed, Dong Ce, who was patrolling the battlefield on the east side, was full of murderous energy, he would not let this person live anymore, but this person was among the Jungar archers, but it was difficult to kill him directly with a musket, so although the muskets of the soldiers of the Fuhan Army remained dense, they still failed to kill this person.
"Who has the means to kill this man? Ben Shuai is willing to promote him to the Central Military Academy for further study! β
Dong Ce glanced around at the accompanying staff officers, but he took out his treasure at the bottom of the box, you must know that the current training qualification of the Central Military Academy is a good thing that cannot be changed, even for the staff officers of the Eastern Route Army, it is out of reach, because as long as you go through advanced training, not to mention the promotion of military ranks, you can also get better training opportunities, and it can be said that you have embarked on a road to heaven.
Of course, if you want to get this training qualification, it is not so easy to do, and everyone is in a state of contemplation.
After just a while, a captain and staff officer stood up and said in a low voice, "Marshal, the lowly Dong Anzhi has an idea, maybe it will work." β
"Say." Dong Ce has always been a person who will not drag the mud and water, so his response is quite categorical.
Dong Anzhi smiled and said, "This person's archery skills are superb, and he is cunning and hiding, and he will change his body shape after every arrow, and it is difficult to determine the location, so he thinks that it is better to send someone to attack him directly with grenades, so that this person has nowhere to escape." β
In the current Fuhan Army, the grenade has become a conventional weapon, which is used a lot, and is also deeply loved by officers and soldiers; as for the rocket, which has been used as a secret weapon for a long time, there are many shortcomings, among which the poor accuracy is a headache, so Dong Anzhi considered using a grenade that is easier to control to carry out indiscriminate bombardment.
When Dong Ce heard this idea, he suddenly had a slight smile on his face, this method seemed to be relatively simple and feasible, so he smiled and said, "Since it is an idea you came up with, then you will select the soldiers in the army who are good at throwing grenades, and blow this person up to Ben Shuai, if it comes out, Ben Shuai will not hesitate to reward him." β
"Xie Dashuai! The humble position will never disappoint the expectations of the marshal! β
After getting Dong Ce's warrant, Dong Anzhi quickly found thirty soldiers who were good at throwing grenades, each assigned two grenades, and then quietly brought them to the front of the battle, hiding themselves, and did not show half of their figures, lest they disturb Dolmu, who was still firing cold arrows.
Dong Anzhi stared at Dormu who was shooting arrows, and whispered to the side, "You guys take the grenade, don't throw it directly in his direction, just throw it next to him." β
After saying that, he ordered the rest of the people to do the same, not directly to Dormu, but to throw them aside, which made everyone quite strange.
A soldier smiled and said, "Master Dong is strange, in the past, he was eager to throw a grenade into the stomach of these dogs, why do you want to throw it aside now, where is this to kill him?" It's clearly saving him. β
Dong Anzhi smiled and said softly, "If it is an ordinary person, it is naturally as before, but this Dolmu is extremely cunning, and he must be pulling other Jungger soldiers as targets, in this case, we will force him to a corner, and when he thinks he has avoided danger, we will teach him to look good." β
Everyone said that it was wonderful, and they all followed Dong Anzhi's instructions one by one, and pulled out the lead of the grenade, and several of them also deliberately cut it a little shorter, which was also convenient for speeding up the ignition speed, and then they held it one by one, and the other hand held the fire fold.
"Lost!"
With Dong Anzhi's order, four or five grenades were immediately dropped on the east side of Dolmu, and sure enough, after seeing several black things being thrown over, Dolmu, who was drawing a bow and shooting arrows, was startled, he hurriedly dodged to his side, and let people block in front of him.
"Boomβ"
With a series of explosions, although Dolmu was blown up, he survived after all, and as for the few substitutes who were pulled in front of him, they all returned to the west.
However, before Dormu could come to his senses, several small black dots similar to the previous ones were thrown one after another, which frightened the Jungar soldiers enough, and everyone thought that this thing was dangerous, so they panicked and dodged to the rear, and Dolmu was extremely cunning, and thought that there was a trap in it, and ran in another direction alone.
At this moment, Dong Anzhi's layout finally took effect, just when the Jungger soldiers and Durmu were scattered, the real killing move was thrown from another direction, and these grenades were all grenades with a lead cut off, they exploded directly in the direction of Dolmu almost after a few breaths were thrown, and suddenly pieces of iron rain fragments shot out, but Dormu's body was used to piercing dozens of holes, and blood gushed out instantly.
"Good!"
When Dong Anzhi saw the scene of Dormu's death, he immediately cheered, while the soldiers of the Fu Han Army on the side also laughed loudly, but their momentum rose sharply, but the Jungger soldiers on the opposite side couldn't hold on any longer, and finally dropped seven or eight hundred corpses and retreated.
Dong Ce, who was watching the battle, was suddenly overjoyed, he looked at the sun that had gradually turned west, but a piece of joy appeared in his heart, it seemed that the first day was about to end
However, for Galdan Tseling, this day's attack was extremely disappointing, and even made him retreat, knowing that the Fu Han army was so difficult to fight, but he didn't expect it to be so difficult to fight - just one day of siege, more than 100 camel cannons have been lost, and thousands of casualties, while the casualties of the Fu Han army on the opposite side are almost less than a quarter.
According to the current algorithm, it is not impossible for Galdance to win, because the Fu Han army is only 14,000 people, if this ratio is converted, he only needs to pay 52,000 casualties to completely take the Fu Han army's East Route Army, but the question is what is the point of this?
Galdan Tseling is not a fool with only muscles, he knows the current situation very well, if he stays here, it is obvious that he will be besieged by the main forces of Ningchu and other roads, if he continues to gnaw this hard bone, then this possibility will almost rise to the point of inevitability, and then it will be the time of the defeat of the entire Dzungar Khanate.
Therefore, according to the current situation, the best choice is to retreat directly to the desert - but the problem is that such a blow to the morale of the army is almost tragic, after all, it is impossible to encircle and annihilate the Han army with several times the strength, even if it is the prestige of the former Great Khan to delirize Alabutan, it is difficult to withstand such a blow, and it may even lead to the siege of the clansmen.
When the problem is in a dilemma, Galdan Tseling is very good at absorbing the opinions of others, whether it is justified or not, at least the person who will take the blame in the future will be found, and poor Da Tseling Dun Dob is an excellent candidate.
"Dundob, after watching today's battle, do you think you should continue fighting?"
In fact, at this time, Da Celing Dun Duobu was also full of entanglement, because the most lost Bao Qin troops today were his core deployment, but now they have lost nearly half of them - this will undoubtedly greatly weaken Da Celing's status in the Jungar Khanate, as well as in the heart of the Great Khan.
Therefore, Da Celing was reluctant to fight again, but he didn't dare to say that, if he was branded as a fearful enemy again, it would be completely finished in the future, so he thought slightly, "Back to the Great Khan, according to the previous speculation, this army should be one of Ning Chu's troops, and they still have the main force in other positions in the grassland, if it is only to exterminate them, and make the Zungar Khanate suffer a lot of vitality, it may not be worth it." β
"And what do you mean?" Gardanze is zero-step.
Da Ce Ling Dun Dob was obviously very cautious, and he immediately changed his words and said, "But if Ning Chu is allowed to develop in the steppe, it will not only destroy the Great Khan's plan, but sooner or later it will threaten the safety of the Dzungar Khanate in the futureβtherefore, we should fight or fight." β
Galdan Tseling finally couldn't bear it anymore, and he snorted slightly, "Dundobu, do you mean to keep fighting?" The badness in the tone was no longer concealed.
Da Ce Ling Dun Dobu sighed lowly, and said, "The minister thinks that the fight must be fought, but you can't fight like this, don't we have a good ally?" You can't let the Russians watch from the sidelines, so you have to let the Russians hurry in! β
Galdan Tseling nodded lightly, and said softly, "Since this is the case, then let's withdraw the army for the time being, but Dundob, the wolf ambitions on the Russian side are very big, so I want you to bother more." β
"Yes, Great Khan. The minister must complete the mission. β
When he came up with this idea, he was already aware of this result, and he naturally accepted it at the moment, but he still had dealings with the Russians, and he also left a very deep memory on the Russians, and almost all Russians in the Far East hated this person in front of him.
Of course, the world is changing, and neither the Russians nor the Great Ce Ling Dun Dob seem to have thought that they would join forces one day.
