Chapter 393: Confucius blesses, invulnerable three
Under the city of Qufu, the team commanded by Stilwell has already confronted Liu Liangzuo's people!
"Don't fire, don't fire, stabilize ......"
The man who shouted "No fire" was Stilwell, who also had a small group of 300 birds, who belonged to Shi Kefa's overseer. In addition, there are 300 Three-Eyed Gunners in Shi Kefa's overseer.
These musketeers have now been taken out of the city by Steenway, but Stilwell's musketeers will not be able to overcome the Morris phalanx, nor will they overcome the bayonet and salvo style of the New Army. Their tactic was the traditional Ming army's firearms in the front, spears and swords in the back. When facing the enemy, the bird fires first, then the three-eyed fire gun, and finally the spear and sword charge. As for the archers, Stilwell put them in the back.
Now Stevens was following behind the 600 musketeers with dozens of swordmen who were overseering the battle, trying to control the musketeers in front of him and prevent them from firing indiscriminately.
"Woo Woo ......"
The sporadic sound of firecrackers sounded on the battlefield, and it was not Stilwell's men who were firing, but Liu Liangzuo's firecrackers.
Liu Liangzuo's army already had a small number of firearms, and after he arrived in the Qing Dynasty, Dolgon supplemented him with a batch of three-eyed guns, all of which were obtained from Shanhaiguan, and the quality was okay.
However, Liu Liangzuo didn't expect his subordinates to use firearms well, and the purpose of letting his firecrackers fire from a distance was actually to lure the other party to shoot indiscriminately.
He had already discovered that the other party had quite a few firearms, five or six hundred of them! If they were to fight correctly, the more than 2,000 green battalion soldiers under his command would get the next oneβhe really had a bit of a psychological shadow on this...... Last time, near Liaocheng, I was beaten by Li Ruolian's firecrackers all over the ground looking for teeth!
It's a pity that Stilwell's men are not vegetarians either, so they are not so easily deceived, not only do they shoot indiscriminately, but they also start shouting slogans.
"Blessed by Sage Kong...... Invulnerable! β
Well, Sage Kong and the swords and guns are invulnerable! I don't know who came up with it? It is estimated that it was an officer under Shi Kefa who had beaten the White Lotus Sect who shouted first.
Hearing this slogan, Liu Liangzuo was also a little stupid. Although he was born in the army, he had also read books, and knew that Sage Confucius did not care about invulnerability, and Sage Confucius was in charge of the imperial examination...... A strong man shirtless, muscular, and screaming "invulnerability" is a Confucian saint? Even Guan Yunchang wouldn't be like this!
"Blessed by Sage Kong...... Invulnerable! β
Stilwell's men were still shouting slogans, but ...... It seems to work! The firecrackles on the other side, and no one on this side is killed.
This shows that Sage Kong is blessing! With the protection of the Confucian saint, what are you afraid of?
Now the big guys were bold, shouted loudly, and strode forward, but the green battalion soldiers were frightened.
That's not right! Could it be that the Sage Kong can really fire fire?
"General, general, they, they're invulnerable!" A green battalion soldier's Qian Zong trembled, like Liu Liangzuo on a tall horse.
With a snap, Liu Liangzuo whipped it up, "Bastard, what nonsense?" It's all for Lao Tzu to resist! Isn't he just a bunch of nerds, afraid of birds! He gritted his teeth, "Tell the firecrackers to come down and let the archers fill in!" Lao Tzu doesn't believe it, Confucius can still defend against bows and arrows! β
Of course, Confucius can't defend against arrows, but Liu Liangzuo's archers don't have fireproof guns! They saw hundreds of people shouting, "Saint Confucius...... The "invulnerable" musketeers are getting closer and closer, can you not be afraid? I don't have enough strength to draw a bow and shoot an arrow. Moreover, Shi Kefa's supervising pacesetters are all in armor - Shi Kefa was the secretary of the Nanjing Military Department, and later he was the military gate of the governor of the seven provinces, and three or two thousand collar armor and cloth iron armor can still be obtained.
So hundreds of feather arrows were shot over, but it didn't have any effect!
The fire can't be hit, the arrows can't be shot, these people are really invulnerable? What can I do? Do you want to find a monk to recite a sutra?
Even Liu Liangzuo was a little scared, and beads of sweat on his forehead came out one by one.
At this moment, the slogans on the opposite side suddenly stopped, and the team stopped advancing......
Liu Liangzuo's heart suddenly twitched, this is about to fire! He hurriedly stretched his neck to look ahead, and knew that it was not good at a glance! The green battalion soldiers under his command were only thirty or forty paces away from the opponent, and they were completely at a distance where the power of the bird gun could be exerted!
Just when Liu Liangzuo felt that something was wrong, the Ming army's firecrackers had already flattened the birds, and then there was a row of large and small fires and white smoke! The archers who released their arrows in front of the Qing army were like suddenly being struck by lightning, shaking and falling down a large area. The screams and screams were uncontrollable!
Liu Liangzuo immediately thought of escaping, but as soon as he turned around from his horse, he saw that there were already four Eight Banner soldiers from Niu Lu more than 100 steps behind him, who had already dismounted and started a battle formation, and everyone had a longbow in their hands...... This is the sharp soldier who oversees the war!
The Eight Banners are all dead soldiers in battle, and sharp soldiers are behind! Now the green battalion commanded by Liu Liangzuo is in front, it is a dead soldier! If you don't fight to the death, the Eight Banners Uncle behind you will not be polite...... Can't they kill the Ming army blessed by Sage Kong, and they can't kill the traitors who are greedy for life and afraid of death?
"Blessed by Sage Kong...... Invulnerable! β
The shouts with a very strange style shook the sky again, and it was obvious that the Ming army had launched an attack!
Liu Liangzuo gritted his teeth, pulled out his waist knife, and shouted: "If you want to get rich, come with me!" β
Then he rushed forward with dozens of his own soldiers on horseback. It's not really about charging, it's just trying to scare the enemy and stabilize your own position by the way.
But he never expected that his side would rush forward, and the three-eyed soldiers under Stilwell were also rushing up. If he's going to rush up, he'll probably be able to break up the three-eyed soldiers.
But how could Liu Liangzuo have such courage? In addition, there was still a bit of gunsmoke on the battlefield at this time, which obscured some of his vision, so he didn't see clearly that the Ming troops who rushed ahead were three-eyed soldiers, and he thought they were pikemen. Therefore, he did not dare to charge directly, but pulled the horse's head and tried to pass in front of the enemy.
As a result, it happened to meet the three-eyed firecracker!
The three-eyed fire gun was originally not accurate, but today's situation is a bit special, and the Ming army seems to have the blessing of Sage Kong! So a projectile hit the head of the war horse under Liu Liangzuo's crotch impartially, and immediately opened the flower, and the pink brain slurred his face. The horse didn't do it anymore, it didn't even scream, it just threw itself forward.
Liu Liangzuo rushed down with a big head and was directly loaded on the hard mud ground, and fainted at that time.
In the smoke, there was another volley of fire guns (three-eyed guns), and I also saw that the cavalry led by Liu Liangzuo finally messed up the green battalion soldiers of the Qing army who had beaten a man on their backs, and many people began to retreat, and shouted: "Confucius is powerful, Confucius is powerful......
What the? How powerful is Confucius? Could it be that Confucius himself crawled out of the grave?
He Luo, who oversaw the war, almost fell off his horse when he heard this shout, who are these people! One moment it is "Confucius blesses, invulnerable", and the next is "Confucius is powerful...... How did Confucius care about the war? No, I'll have to find a copy of the Analects to study when I go back!
Boom Boom Boom ......
A bowstring sounded, interrupting He Luohui's thoughts, it turned out that it was the Eight Banners who supervised the battle and shot a wave of feather arrows, and the arrows fell in front of the retreating green battalion soldiers, all of which were inserted into the mud, only the arrow shafts with white feathers were exposed, connected into a white line!
Whoever dares to cross the white line will be shot on the spot!
It was the Tartars who supervised the war, and it was Confucius who fought the war...... Confucius is powerful, the Tartars are cruel, and the traitors are not easy to be soldiers!
The green battalion soldiers, who had no choice but to turn around and fight again, fought hard and killed the dead soldiers of the Ming army who were in full morale. However, they have lost the opportunity, and they have lost the commander Liu Liangzuo, their morale is low, the formation is chaotic, and they are completely at a disadvantage of being beaten.
The Eight Banners under He Luohui continued to shoot arrows, and the feather arrows were thrown out in waves, all of which fell behind the dead soldiers of the Ming army, although they were thrown from a distance, but they still shot over many soldiers who were not fully armored. I found some field for the green battalion soldiers who were being beaten!
At the same time, the battle for the C-shaped round fort was also at its fiercest. The Qing soldiers had already rushed to the city wall in large numbers, and the regimental training strong men defending the city were completely at a disadvantage, and were forced to retreat by the Qing soldiers step by step, thinking about retreating near the gate of the main city of Qufu.
Some Qing soldiers rushed down the walls and into the interior of the round fort. The refugees who had gathered inside the fortress had long been frightened, and when they saw the Qing soldiers rushing in, they screamed and rushed to the only exit of the castle. Their shouts caused the Qing soldiers to kill again, slashing and stabbing guns, and immediately blood flowed into rivers. The terrible screams, like a gale, swept through the entire fortress.
At this time, the regimental training strong man, who had been forced to retreat, suddenly let out an earth-shattering shout: "The Tartar soldiers have killed someone!" Kill our wives and children! Let's fight with them, let's fight! β
This shout was like a magic spell, which instantly ignited the fighting spirit of these regimental training men, and everyone stopped retreating, and then turned around and rushed forward with a shout, killing the Qing army at the head of the city.
