Chapter 462: The Power of the Musket
Nikan, the most famous general of the younger generation of generals of the Qing Dynasty.
Before a stick of incense, the general was still angry in the barracks, and Abatai wanted to attack Wu Sangui with a sudden killer, so he was ordered to stay in the barracks, but he took Hauge with him.
This made him very angry, Haug was a thorn in Dorgon's eye, but he was Dolgon's pawn, how could this old guy not be able to distinguish between friend and foe, but good credit was cheap for others.
Nikan is not a brave and unscrupulous person, a little contemplation will know that the old man's mind of Abatai, is nothing more than to want to be left and right, although it is to support Dorgon, but it is not the kind of absolute death, only because of dissatisfaction with the emperor Taiji into the arms of Abatai, as for the Hauge does not have much bad feelings, at this time the two of them are fighting for power for a while, are secretly wrestling their wrists, in the future the deer will die who is still unknown, at this time to send credit to Hauge, but also to sell a love in advance to leave a way back.
As for himself, although he is the eldest son and eldest grandson of Nurhachi, but with his father Chu Ying was killed for his crimes in his early years, and then the eldest brother Du Du and the second brother Guohuan went early, his branch has withered, and he has long been far away from the center of power, and has become a pawn of Dolgon, with a knife in his hand, and he is just a shell at this time in terms of identity, so although he is all the way with Abatai, this old man does not look at him at all.
actually secretly communicated with Haoge in front of himself, and regarded himself as nothing, which was actually hateful, but he had no choice but to lose his temper in the camp, smash dishes and bowls, and beat a few coated minions to relieve his anger.
With the whip swinged, there was a bloody streak on the thinly clothed minions, kneeling in the snow, their faces full of pain, but they did not dare to groan, because they knew that if they spoke out, they would be whipped harder.
After more than a dozen whips, several coats were already skinless, curled up in the snow, their faces were hideous, but only the breath came in.
There were two muffled thunders faintly in the distance, could it be raining?
"Your Excellency, Your Excellency, Look......"
Nikan had just thrown down his whip and was about to take a break from his saliva when one of his own soldiers suddenly drank loudly and pointed out his hand to the outside of the camp due south.
But I saw thousands of people and horses suddenly pouring out of a wild valley in the distance, turning their heads and rushing towards the mountain road to the east...... There, Abatai's cavalry had just entered the mountain pass.
Not good, there is an ambush for the Ming army!
Nikan was shocked, although he was dissatisfied with Abatai, but at this time, the overall situation was important, how dare he slack off, and immediately summoned people and horses out of the camp to rescue quickly, and said in his heart that this group of Ming troops was also a little tender, so he went in and was blocked by himself, wouldn't it become a bun!
Hahaha, Lao Tzu sat in the camp, the credit fell from the sky, Nikan Don't mention how happy, the rescue was timely, the ambush of the Ming army, the main force and the crisis, how is it a great achievement!
Although he had less than a thousand troops.
Sons, pick up the merits, and lead the troops out of the camp Nikana is extremely high-spirited, looking at the Ming army that is hiding behind the Abatai people and horses and sneaking into the mountain road, he can't help but look up to the sky and roar, a murderous aura, and the wind and snow avoid three feet.
Fast horses, seeing that the people and horses into the mountain road, Nikan's heart is like fire, eager to fly over a period of slaughter, the killing of the Ming army is not left, the blood flows like a river, this battle Lao Tzu must be the first merit, what Abatai, what Haoge, all for me to get out of the way.
The mountain road has indeed been bleeding into a river, the Qing army was killed by the Ming army before and after the head of the rat, Wu Sangui in the south poured a city of soldiers and horses to crush, behind the five hundred cavalry dragon spirit tiger fierce, as soon as they entered the enemy formation, they killed the Quartet, Ren Qing army has always been fierce, but at this time the army heart has long been chaotic and has no intention of fighting, where to resist, the valley is running around, the enemy will wave a knife to kill a few attempts to stabilize the position, but there is no use at all, the Ming army took advantage of the situation to kill, the two sides fought together, fierce fighting, but anyone knows, if there is no change, the Qing army will be defeated, it is only a matter of time.
Compared with the time when the Jin Ge Iron Horse fought against the earthquake in the mountain road, thousands of infantry battalions on the slopes on both sides of the mountain road held their breath and did nothing, and the commander Li Tiezhu looked at the cavalry that rushed out of the enemy camp, his breathing became heavier and heavier, and he raised his hand to signal, there are still three miles, two miles, and one miles, ready to ignite.
The soldiers of the infantry battalion began to take out the fire folds and blow out the flames, giving orders with all their hearts.
200 meters, 100 meters, 50 meters, 20 meters...... Nikan's cavalry arrived at the mountain pass, galloping for more than ten miles, and the horses were already out of breath, and when they saw that there were soldiers in the mountain road, they were not afraid, and continued to charge with horses.
Dot! Li Tiezhu roared angrily.
All the soldiers of the infantry battalion lit their muskets, and the muzzles of their guns were aimed at the Qing cavalry who were coming towards the mountain road.
Bang bang, thousands of muskets fired in volleys, and the power was almost destroyed, even if this was an era dominated by cold weapons, even if the shooting distance and lethality of muskets at this time were only comparable to that of bows and arrows.
Nikan's men and horses were too close, this was because they didn't see the Ming infantry at the mountain pass, and more importantly, they didn't see the guy in their hands clearly.
The range of the musket was about 300 paces or 200 meters, which was still the lethal range, and Nikan's men and horses were all within this distance.
As the dense gunfire rang out, Nikan was shocked, and at the same time he found that a large number of his subordinates had fallen down, fallen off their horses, and rolled on the ground.
This made him extremely shocked, a glance, more than 800 cavalry turned out to be only more than 200 people safe and sound, at this time where he still has the heart to fight again, frightened to pat the horse turned around and ran, but heard the sound of killing behind him, it was one of the thousand people of the infantry battalion, rushed out of the valley to seize the horse and chase it.
Nikan was already frightened, and fled in the direction of the barracks, but suddenly saw the smoke billowing in the barracks and the gunfire in the barracks from a distance before he could travel two miles.
That's right, the more than 100 people that Chang Yu had previously deployed were lurking close to the Qing army camp just to play this hand.
"My lord, let's run to the east," someone under his command said loudly, there were many chasing soldiers behind him, the momentum was huge, and there were ambushes in the camp ahead, where to think too much at this time, go fuck Shougong, fuck Abatai, Nikan gritted his teeth, beat his horse and turned around and fled east.
Looking at the embarrassed escape of more than 100 Nikan cavalry, Li Tiezhu at the mountain pass laughed loudly, and ordered those bluffing pursuers to return to slaughter those cavalry who were shot and wounded and landed, looking back at the tragic fighting that was still going on in the valley, and ordered the infantry battalion that had just loaded its guns and ammunition to go to clear it immediately, a group of five, a platoon of eleven people, and a team of twenty people, and no single soldiers were allowed to fight.
A burst of intensive gunfire almost slaughtered Nikan's hundreds of reinforcements, and at the same time made the restless Abatai in the chaotic army feel like a fire, and feel even worse, the Qing army is good at bows and arrows, and does not like muskets, because of the same lethality, bows and arrows are replaced faster and more flexible, so there are few guns in the army, but the gunshots that come here are so dense, it can only show that the army has a lot of ambushes over there, and this battle is only afraid of ......
I was gloomy in my heart, but I always had a glimmer of hope, or maybe Hauge could really tell a bloody path, thinking about looking up, but vaguely saw Hauge fighting with a team of Ming troops.
