Chapter 356: Eight Banners of Goryeo (Second Update, Ask for Subscription)

Mighty!

When Contemporary Shan led the army of 60,000 Eight Banners towards Daifang Fort, he seemed to be in high spirits, but his mood was a little heavy.

It's hard!

Although he led an army of 60,000, he still had no bottom in his heart, after all, Huang Taiji had fallen on the Jinzhou side, and now he was going to attack Fangbao, if the Ming army was still pulling barbed wire there, what would happen then?

It's not easy to do!

In the past few years, Dai Shan has not been comfortable, he used to be the crown prince of Houjin, originally only one step away from the Khan, but later the Khan was still taken by Huang Taiji, since Huang Taiji succeeded to the throne, he was suppressed because of his old position, and he has been idle for many years, regardless of the government.

But it is precisely because of this that he picked up a life - when the Ming army entered Kou Shengjing, as in the past, when Huang Taiji went on an expedition, he would go to Zhuangzi more than 200 miles away from Shengjing to "hunt", in the past this was to show Huang Taiji that he had no intention of "colluding with the minister", but this time he was allowed to escape.

The Ming army captured Shengjing, and Shengjing was slaughtered inside and outside, and in the face of this situation, Dai Shan, who had been idle at home, made a comeback again, followed Huang Taiji to conquer Korea, and regained military power.

But right now, Dai Shan's mood is really heavy. Not only was he worried about Obifang Fort, but he was even more worried that the 50,000 Korean soldiers under his command would not succeed.

What are the so-called Eight Flags of Goryeo? It's just a soldier who relies on a generous salary, but once there is no salary, what will happen then?

And what he is worried about is not only that, he is even more worried that he will not be able to beat the band, and Huang Taiji will punish him at that time!

But despite this, Dai Shan still willingly led the troops to the battle, not for the Qing Dynasty, but for his two sons - Yue Tuo, who died in Jinan, and Shuo Tuo in Shandong, that De Shizi killed his two sons!

Just when Dai Shan was thinking about avenging his son, there was a sudden report from the horse scouts over there - the Ming army team had left the city!

The Ming army is out of the city!

There is no defense of the city!

The sudden news was so shocking that Dai Shan didn't come back to his senses for a long time.

"The Ming army actually didn't defend the city?"

"There won't be a fraud!"

"Lord Wang, the slave thinks that the Ming army suddenly abandoned the city and did not defend it, there must be fraud!"

"But no, Lord Wang, we have an army of 60,000, how many of them are there? If you don't defend the city, don't you want to die? ”

It was almost instinctive, and everyone suspected that the Ming army must be deceitful, otherwise how could the Ming army be so stupid, actually give up their greatest advantage, and kill out of the city at once.

"Could it be because their city hasn't been built yet, so they ......?"

Without waiting for Hanni to finish speaking, Daishan said.

"It doesn't matter if they build it or not, even if they just pull a few barbed wire, it's enough for us to gnaw for half a day, or be careful, this Zaining area is a horse and a flat river, although it seems that there is no danger to defend, but it faces the sea on three sides, and the Ming army is known for its naval army, if their reinforcements are hidden on the island, it is difficult to guarantee that they will not be killed from the sea when I send out a large army, it is better to be cautious."

As soon as Dai Shan said this, everyone immediately agreed, indeed, this group of Ming troops is different from other Ming armies, other Ming armies are afraid of field battles, they are not afraid, and they have a navy, whether their navy has brought reinforcements from Lushun, no one knows.

There is nothing wrong with being careful, after all, this group of Ming soldiers is not an idle person.

After thinking about it, Dai Shan said.

"Hanni, you first lead 20,000 soldiers and horses to meet the Ming army for a while, test their reality, and the rest of the men and horses will camp on the spot!"

Maybe it's because the Great Qing Kingdom has suffered too many losses in front of the Pingyu Army, and now Dai Shan is bent on seeking stability, of course, this has a lot to do with the fact that he has been suppressed by Huang Taiji for so many years.

Almost at the moment when the spies brought back the news of Jiannu's division of troops, Mao Chengzhi laughed.

"Brother Li, your trick is amazing, how do you know that they will definitely divide their troops?"

"We have limited troops, and if we don't defend the city, we will send a large army to meet the battle, but anyone with a normal brain will feel cheating. Now it's okay, they're split into two, we just need to eat the striker, and the rest is a hard bone, but at most it's a broken tooth! It doesn't hurt your muscles and bones. ”

If the generals of the Liaodong Army heard these words here, they would definitely open their eyes in horror, more than 10,000 horses against 20,000 Jiannu, and they would still eat them!

It's as simple as dreaming!

But dreams are always to be done.

"It's okay, our teeth are good, we can't collapse!"

After laughing, Mao Chengzhi looked at the paddy fields around him, and there was no danger to defend here...... However, it is also a good battlefield.

A flat river, seemingly undefended, but it is most suitable for infantry, and it is also suitable for artillery maneuvers.

Half an hour later, after both sides found each other, both sides began to set up to fight.

"Well, the military formation is quite neat, and these North Korean soldiers are not as weak as outsiders say!"

Sitting on the mount, Li Yi observed the Korean soldiers while commenting on his head.

"Korean soldiers, although most of the North Koreans are not brave, but under the supervision of Jiannu, they are still very brave, and the military gate should be careful!"

Xu Zhiyuan, who was beside the chief soldier, reminded softly.

Unlike Mao Chengzhi and Li Yi, Xu Zhiyuan has had a lot of dealings with North Koreans.

"North Koreans......"

Mao Chengzhi smiled, put down the binoculars,

"We have won this battle!"

Pointing to the military formation of the North Koreans in the distance, Mao Chengzhi said.

"Order the artillery to open fire, 2000 meters, which is exactly the range of a nine-pound field gun!"

Although the Jiujin mountain howitzer is extremely light, its firing range is limited, so now the Pingyu Army has begun to use the Jiujin field gun as the main artillery of each army, and the Jiujin field gun uses solid shells to accurately project to a distance of 1,500 meters with a firing angle of 5 °, and can reach 2,000 meters when the firing angle is 10 °. Due to the limitation of the gun carriage structure, the maximum elevation angle of the nine-catty gun is only about 12 degrees, but the elevation angle of the gun body can be further improved by digging pits and other methods, and its effective firing range can continue to be improved.

But two thousand meters is enough!

When the gunners were preparing for the bombardment, Hanni, who had just arrived at the battlefield, was also directing the Eight Banners of Goryeo under his command to arrange the troops, the formation was the most ordinary phalanx, but unlike in the past, there was a shield car in front of the phalanx, if it was said that the first battle of Jinzhou, what was their biggest lesson? It's that the Ming army's firearms are very sharp, and they have to have a shield car.

"After a while, when attacking, let the minions use the shield car as a wall to block the firearms of the Ming army, and the minions behind are close to a hundred steps, and then kill the enemy with a Franc machine and a bird gun......"

Unlike the Qing army, during the invasion of the Japanese invaders, the Korean soldiers who received the rescue of the Celestial Empire learned to use firearms in the Ming army.

"Your Excellency is wise!" Kim Jae-hee slapped a sycophant loudly, urged his mount, and went to urge his soldiers to go.

Hanni, on the other hand, jumped off his horse and walked slowly around the Shuai Qi on foot. After a few hours of marching, it would take some time for the minions to regain their strength to their best. Taking this opportunity, he can also carefully observe the opponent's formation again, looking for more weak points to come out, so as to determine the offensive strategy.

Shield car, Franc machine, bird gun...... All in all, this battle should be sure to be won!

But as soon as he took a few steps, suddenly, after many years of fighting, he instinctively felt some kind of dangerous aura, and when he looked into the distance, he only saw clouds of white smoke spewing out of the ranks of the Ming army.

The Ming army is firing artillery!

That's miles away!

He immediately thought of the statement about the sharp artillery fire of the Ming army, and the emperor had suffered a loss in this regard, and his heart suddenly felt cold.

"Protect the master!"

Goshha beside him immediately shouted, and with a dozen minions, surrounded the master, for fear that the cannonballs would fall on the master's body, even if they knew that if they really hit, their bodies would not be able to stop the cannonballs.

But even so, this can be regarded as a manifestation of loyalty, and it is better for a slave to behave more in front of his master than not to show it at all.

However, what was very embarrassing was that the shells did not fly towards them at all, but smashed directly into the Qing army's military formation......
