"General Tang of Miyun Town led more than a thousand cavalry to escape!"

"The former Tunwei Wang's courtiers and Wang Zongbing died in battle!"

"The soldiers of Jizhen were bitten by the soldiers and horses of the two yellow flags!"

One bad news after another was sent to Hong Chengchou by the sentinels and horses, and asked the Inspector to decide.

In front of Hong Chengchou, there were actually only two choices, one was to ignore the front army and the vanguard, and lead the men and horses of Ma Ke and Cao Bianjiao to return to Guangning City to wait for reinforcements. As long as he was still there, the battle in Liaodong was not over, and the imperial court would urge Wu Sangui in Ningyuan and Li Shouhan in Tianjin to continue to fight against Liaodong. Second, order Ma Ke and Cao Bianjiao to form a formation on the spot, pick up the people and horses of Jizhen under Bai Guangen, and then try to raise him.

However, it is easier said that a large number of heavy vehicles blocked the road to Guangning back to the city, and those 32-pounder guns, the Dingliao general, who was given the name by the emperor, blocked the city gate tightly.

"Formation! Send an order to General Marcoma and General Xiao Cao, and order them to form a formation on the spot and meet General Bai! ”

The front guard has been under the strong attack and rush of the heavy armor of the Qing army, and it has been divided into fragments, and waves of heavy cavalry have smashed in from the gap. They constantly outflanked, divided, torn apart, and drove away, constantly disrupting the structure and command system of the Ming army, and turning one Ming army camp into several individuals. Let the Ming army feel that there are their men and horses everywhere, and their own departments have been broken through and cannot be defended.

Under the fear, the routs panicked, and most of them followed the flow of people, driven by the Qing soldiers, and rushed to the rear of the large array. Many people are crowded together, pushed down, trampled to death, or trying to take a place to live. Fighting each other.

Wang Tingchen was killed in such a chaotic army. As soon as he died, the Qiantun guards became more and more chaotic, and his hundreds of soldiers were still an effective core, constantly organizing small-scale counterattacks, driving out the heavy armored cavalry of the Qing army that rushed in, and at the same time collecting the routs of all departments. Trying to restore the system. As soon as Wang Tingchen died, the hearts of the family members were also scattered, and they immediately panicked, and with a bang, like a flood bursting the dam, these family members who were originally the core of the Qiantun guards and horses also collapsed, and they became a greater torrent of rout, running everywhere on the endless Liaoxi Plain.

Let Tang Tong go, Huang Taiji is just one of the three missing. It just made the morale of the Ming army even more combative! Where would he let Tang Tong's soldiers and horses escape? Immediately, nearly 10,000 people under Tang Tong's headquarters were scattered on the open field, the banners were heavily abandoned, the soldiers were panicked and did not know where to go, and the officers were busy packing up their horses and preparing to escape. At this time, if you don't pack up the remnants of the army and seize the baggage, when will you wait?

"Hauge!"

"Erchen is here!"

"Take your Zhenglan Banner Manchuria, and I will transfer two more banners and eight Mongolian banners under your command to clean up the remnants of the Miyun Army of the Ming Kingdom! Remember. Capture as many as you can, kill as little as you can! ”

After months of fighting. The generals and princes of the Eight Banners all learned a trick from Dolgon, that is, to capture the Ming army as much as possible, and then expand their strength in the banner. Huang Taiji is no exception.

"Bow down! Turai! ”

The two leaders of the second generation of the Guerjia family are the people that Huang Taiji values a lot in his heart at this time, and the people who can not be tempted by the temptation of Dolgon's official position and title slave soldiers and horses are extremely capable of fighting in themselves. How to not cultivate it well?

"The minions are here!" The two young heroes of the Guerjia clan saluted in unison, waiting for the emperor to send them.

"You two minions, now you are the two yellow flags of Baya Laxu Zhangjing, some people say that I am biased against you. You will take people down, and I will favor you even more! Clean up the people of the Ming army! ”

Aobai, whose legs and feet were not yet good, got on the war horse with the help of a few personal soldiers, waved the heavy sword of dozens of catties in his hand, roared wildly, and led the heavy armored cavalry with thousands of taels of yellow flags to rush out of the camp and go straight to the place where the soldiers and horses of the guards in front of the royal courtiers were scattered.

A torrent of yellow iron armor had just rushed down the mountain, and before the retina of people's eyes had time to recede, Huang Taiji had another military order from his mouth.

"Where is the obedience to the king?"

With a call, the leader of the Sanshun King in the Han Army Banner, Gong Shun Wang Kong Youde, came out of the crowd, cleaned up his clothes a little, and bowed respectfully, "Slaves participate in the emperor!" ”

"Respectfully to the king, your troops have always been famous for their firearms. I will send you to deal with this man today! Huang Taiji pointed at the tip of the whip, but it was the military formation of Bai Guangen, the chief soldier of Jizhen.

There were about 10,000 people under Bai Guangen, because they were a little far away from the Qing army, and with the shouting orders of the officers, these men and horses gradually formed two formations, one large and two small, and protected the grain and grass in the formation, constantly mobilizing artillery to the front of the formation, trying to use artillery as the main force to form a formation with both attack and defense, and after repelling the Qing army's attack, they retreated back to Guangning City.

"The minions obey! The slave used artillery against artillery, blasting away his Bai Guangen's military formation, and see how much worse these Jizhen soldiers were compared to the soldiers and horses trained by Grandpa Qi back then! ”

Relying on the loss of cattle and horses without counting the towed artillery, one was tired and then replaced with another, Kong Youde's Wuzhen Chaoha artillery battalion, under the escort of more than 1,000 white-armored soldiers led by Turge, along the edge of the battlefield, crossed the front guard position that was frantically capturing the stragglers of the Ming army and snatching all kinds of heavy vehicles, grain and grass artillery, and soon, dozens of artillery pieces of all sizes appeared in front of the Jizhen soldiers and horses.

Bai Guangen's Jizhen soldiers, the establishment of about 20,000 people, remove the vacancies, stay behind the soldiers and horses, and bring 13,400 people to Liaodong, although everyone is besieged in Guangning City these days, but the big battles are not too much, so Bai Guangen's subordinates still have 12,300 people knowing.

According to the traditional tactics of the Ming army, Bai Guangen lined up the chariots and artillery in his battalion in front of the battle, and the artillery was placed in the gap between the chariots, and the black holes of the guns stared at the Qing army that roared like a flood in the distance!

"It's fine! They're all rebellious thieves! Looking at the flag, Bai Guangen breathed a sigh of relief. Those who came were all Han military flags, and the combat effectiveness of the Han military flags was also comparable to that of the Ming army.

Not only is the combat effectiveness far inferior to that of the Eight Banners of Manchuria, but in terms of establishment and equipment, the soldiers and horses of the Han Army Banner are also far inferior to the Eight Banners of Manchuria. Although the banner and dress are no different from the Manchu and Mongolian armies, the number of soldiers and the proportion of armor are far inferior to those of the Eight Banners Manchuria, and they are also armored soldiers. The armor of the Han military banner is also mainly cotton armor, and many people's cotton armor is not the kind of iron-inlaid cotton armor with iron leaves embedded in it, but just ordinary cotton armor, similar to a large cotton jacket.

"Let's kill these two Tartars right here. Then go back to Quang Ninh City and wait for help! Bai Guangen shouted and ordered his subordinates to prepare for battle.

Kong Youde narrowed his eyes, picked up the monocular that Huang Taiji had given him, and carefully looked at Bai Guangen's military formation opposite, a very traditional three-fold array. The battalion and artillery were in front, the cavalry was escorted on the flanks and in the rear, and the infantry was in line behind the battalion and artillery.

"Chen Banda, that minion, made so many artillery pieces for the emperor, not to mention the fight. The cost is much lower than when Lao Tzu was in Dengzhou! Today, let's tell the group of Ming dogs on the other side how to use artillery in the field! Don't think it's amazing to have a few cannons on top of the city! ”

Kong Youde's rude face smiled a few times, looked at the artillery team, and saw that it had been loaded, so he waved the command flag in his hand and let out a hoarse and rough roar, "Open the cannon!" ”

There was a tremor in the artillery positions. There was a deafening sound of cannons, and twenty-five of them were minions under the Manchurian Zhenghuang banner. The twelve-pounder cannon made by Chen Banda, who had half a career and an official position in Ang Bang Zhangjing, roared in unison with a double-layer casting method, and the muzzle of the cannon spewed out thick white smoke in front of him, and the thick smoke and dust instantly covered the thick figures of each artillery, condensing into a cloud of smoke over the artillery position.

Twenty-five cannons of more than ten catties roared and flew towards the Ming army formation outside Lixu!

There was a shrill roar. Heavy iron balls roared and smashed the land in early spring, splashing clouds of dirt and dust, whistling past cannonballs, and falling cannonballs beside him. The Ming gunners who made the gap between the chariots in the front of the Jizhen army formation were all sweating profusely when they were frightened.

Fortunately, Kong Youde adhered to Huang Taiji's will, and the artillery was deliberately not aimed carefully, aiming to frighten the Ming army that was originally a frightened bird! Therefore, the accuracy of the shells was extremely low, and most of the shells were shot down and jumped, rolling and jumping everywhere in the Ming army's position. But there was still a twelve-pounder shell, a large ball of red-hot iron, which, after smashing a chariot, flew diagonally to the side, and swooped straight at a six-pounder gun with seven or eight gunners working on it.

Seeing the shells coming with their heads and faces, the Ming gunners next to the artillery screamed, and then they dispersed, and behind the artillery, several Ming army drivers who were holding whips in their hands and were watching the excitement there also turned around and ran.

The fiery iron ball swirled and smashed into the artillery position.

Smoke rose up, booming and rumbling, gunpowder exploded, and this heavy iron ball, so immortal, smashed right on the firing powder keg stacked next to the gun emplacement! Immediately triggered a martyrdom! The huge explosion sent out the shells of the six-pounder cannons, and knocked down a lot of soldiers and horses behind the surrounding chariots! The screams were mixed with bursts of blood mist.

There was chaos in the Ming army!

"Good! Well fought minions! Just hit it like that! One more round! Kong Youde laughed so loudly on his mount that he couldn't close his mouth, and he just waved the leather whip in his hand and ordered his gunners to continue shooting!

A large puff of thick smoke rose again, followed by dozens of huge solid shells whizzing. In this round of shooting, the artillery of the Qing army lowered the muzzle of the artillery, almost directly flat, and the target was the chariots and artillery that lay in front of the Ming army, and defeated them, so that the heavy armored cavalry of the Eight Banners Manchuria could gallop back and forth, without worrying about obstacles.

Booming cannons rang out, and waves of shells fell around the chariots and artillery, and they either shot into the air and bounced without hitting the centaurs. Or directly smash and crash into the chariots of the Ji Zhen soldiers, smashing those chariots into pieces and flying sharp wooden thorns. Let the gunner who is hit behind him roll and howl.

There were also shells that fell into the positions of the musketeers arranged slightly further back, or the cold weapons positions of the Strange Battalion of the Jizhen Reinforcement Battalion, running and jumping on the dry, hard ground in the spring. Bring up bursts of blood mist from stumps. For a while, there were cries and wails, and the forward camp of the Ming army was in chaos.

Looking at their miserable appearance, the soldiers and horses of the Jizhen barracks on the hills were also in a commotion, and many of them were as earth-colored as earth, and the Tartar artillery was too fierce.

The Liao thieves are also well versed in human psychology, and on Kong Youde's artillery position, there were screams everywhere, and a batch of shells with terrifying screaming sounds. Shoot over.

This wave of shells is even more violent, because in order to create greater fear and panic, the artillery team uses shotguns!

Chestnut-sized shotguns were fired from dozens of cannons, and a thousand or hundreds of cannons in the air intertwined into a dense network of bullets. That is, the power of the cannons is large and small, and the range is front and back, but most of them are fired into the Ming army. Countless solid iron balls slashed their heads and covered their faces, shooting indiscriminately, bulleting indiscriminately, rolling, jumping, and smashing indiscriminately, and from time to time chariots and soldiers were poisoned, and flesh and blood flew everywhere, and debris flew everywhere.

The Ming army lined up behind the forward chariot of the military formation, where the artillery fell, was already crying for his father and mother. The soldiers ran around, and the military formation on the side was also unstable.

In fact, although the Qing army's artillery was fierce, the distance was there, and the effective killing distance of firing solid bullets and firing shotguns was different. The effective range of the shotgun is much shorter. Therefore, this round of shotgun shooting did not cause much actual damage to the soldiers and horses of Jizhen.

Because of more than 10,000 horses, as well as a large number of chariots and artillery, the entire military formation of Jizhen. It was a few miles from east to west. The small array between the battalions was still separated by an open space. It's just this era. Artillery is an irresistible force, especially when you can't fight back when you just stand as a target and can't fight back when you are beaten, that kind of horror has been magnified countless times.

Especially the miserable appearance of others. It's contagious. A commotion in a military formation will affect countless people next to them, especially when the soldiers cannot strictly abide by discipline and their combat strength is not sharp.

And, apparently, the experience of the Ming army under artillery. Far less powerful than their ability to move thousands of miles, and in the face of artillery fire, this immunity is even lower.

After this round of artillery fire stopped, the formation of Jizhen's soldiers and horses had faintly shown signs of collapse, and among the various military formations, those generals, guerrillas, garrisons and other officers were all shouting at their soldiers and horses with all their might, trying to restrain them and prevent the soldiers and horses from dispersing.

In the era of cold weapons, if the infantry army did not form a military formation, how could it be the opponent of the cavalry? Especially in the face of Liao thieves who are good at riding and shooting? Napoleon, the artillery emperor of that year, also had to order his subordinates to maintain formation and discipline in order to deal with the Mamluk cavalry in Egypt. If the formation of the Ming army is chaotic, the army will become a group of stragglers, and there is no doubt that it will be a dead end to fight against the cavalry of the anti-thieves in Liaodong on the Liaoxi Plain.

However, will Turge, Kong Youde and others give Bai Guangen time to reorganize the army?

"Lord Turg, this king here orders the minions to go up and fight a round of firearms, after a volley, your iron cavalry will rush up, tear open the formation of the Ming dogs, and let us soldiers and horses press it together! Fight a hunt! ”

The son-in-law of the wild boar skin, the white flag inlaid on the forehead of the mountain, the forehead of the mountain Gushan Zhenniu Hulu Turge, these days he was holding back his anger in his heart, and followed Rao Yu Bel Abatai to the interior to plunder, but was beaten by the thieves and almost couldn't come back, and the minions brought into the pass were lost. Fortunately, the emperor didn't care, and rewarded him with soldiers and horses, and crowned him with official positions, how could such a grace not make him grateful?

At that moment, Turg urged his subordinates to dismount together, change their mounts, and straighten out their swords and guns without mentioning, on the other side, Kong Youde shook the order flag, and more than 2,000 firecrackers ran in front of the artillery team to form a firing formation.

The fire guns are carefully made by Chen Ban Da Ling according to the style of the captured Nanzhong fire guns, although they have never imitated the nine turns of steel until now, they can only still use the best fine iron to make the guns, compared with the original and genuine Nanzhong fire guns, the whole gun is a lot heavier. However, the same flint faucet and the same spring made Kong Youde greatly satisfied with the shooting effect.

"Nanban's gunpowder, Chen Banda's minion has been imitated, Lao Tzu will use Nanban's firecracker and Nanban's gunpowder today to entertain you, the chief soldier of Jizhen!"

Kong Youde waved the command flag in his hand downward, and the Han army flag soldiers arranged in three columns pulled the trigger in their hands, and fired a salvo in unison, the sound of the platoon rang out like a bean, thick white smoke rose, and the dense projectiles quickly flew towards the already chaotic Ming army camp on the opposite side!

I don't care about observing the killing and wounding brought by this round of firecrackers to my battalion, Jizhen, which was beaten by firearms, completely lost the style of Qi Jiguang's era back then, and made a shout, the forward's car battalion and artillery team left the chariots and artillery and ran around, and they had already had artillery and firearms, and their own firearms were far better than these Liao thieves on the opposite side!

However, even if Qi Jiguang jumps out of the ground now, he will be swept away by the wave of defeat of the forward. The defeated soldiers and horses were like pipes surging on the embankment, quickly destroying the already not very strong defensive line!

"Hah! Enough heat! Baturu, follow the officials and rush forward! ”

Turg roared like a tiger, like a flood bursting the embankment, thousands of Manchurian cavalry, hooves like thunder, banners like clouds, just swooped in front of Bai Guangen's formation!

The smoke and dust were billowing and people were shouting and neighing, and I don't know how many Liao thieves rushed over.

These heavy cavalry rushed to the camp with a roar like a team of tanks! Or overturn the chariot, or crash into the chariot, or take off the air and jump over the artillery, breaking into the camp!

Immediately, in the Jizhen army, those gunners screamed miserably and scrambled to flee back.

They left their backs to the cavalry who rushed over, and they were constantly knocked to the ground by the fierce horses, and the heavy cavalry was cut to the ground with eight banner spears, tiger tooth knives, and birch sickles, and wails and screams resounded into the sky.

Some people wanted to stop and resist, but the people around them were fleeing, and when they saw the Tartar heavy cavalry outflanking them, and the Qing cavalry kept riding and shooting, they had to flee with them in fear.

Wave after wave of heavily armored cavalry kept rushing in from the gap, and they were constantly outflanking, dividing, tearing, and driving away, making the Ming army feel that there were their men and horses everywhere, and the Jizhen position had been broken everywhere and could not be defended.

Under the fear, the routs panicked, and most of them followed the flow of people, driven by the Qing soldiers, and rushed to the rear of the large array. Many people crowded together, pushed down, trampled to death, or fought each other in order to gain space to survive.

The elite cavalry of the Liao thieves, like the shadow of the devil, constantly swept past them, constantly shooting sharp arrows, throwing javelins, throwing flying swords and broadswords, and killing the strongest of them.

Then the heavily armored cavalry turned their horses' heads and charged at them, knocking them to the ground, trampling them down with their hooves, and slashing them to death one by one with their scimitars and spears.

The Qing cavalry also continued to pass through the outflanking, so that these routs could not form a systematic resistance, and the routs could not think about it at all except fleeing as if they were collapsing.

Some of the generals and officers of Jizhen still wanted to gather the rout and reorganize the front.

However, the Qing cavalry were the best at outflanking, and they directly crossed the large rout and reached beyond the crowd that might resist.

"Those who descend will not die!"

"Those who descend will not die!"

Seeing that the collapse of Jizhen was a foregone conclusion, Turg remembered that the emperor had confessed to killing less and capturing more.

Suddenly, hundreds of soldiers and horses in Jizhen surrendered on their knees. (To be continued......)
