Smoke and dust billowed and the sound of killing shook the sky. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

The iron hooves of the cavalry on both sides slammed heavily on the ground, making a loud and chilling sound.

In the blink of an eye. The two sides are not far apart. As soon as he entered the twentieth step, both sides used long-range lethal weapons as they coincidentally. Ekui and other Liaodong knights flattened the horse gun in their hands, held the handguard under the horse gun with their left hand, clamped the war horse with their legs, and controlled it by the good tacit understanding between people and the war horse.

The horses roared loudly, and the Qing cavalry who rushed from the opposite side fell from their horses with hundreds of thunderbolts, and the horses were hit by the bullets, and they fell to the ground with a wail, which made the charging formation of the Qing army horse team suddenly chaotic.

However, the Qing cavalry on the opposite side also threw their javelins, iron bones, throwing axes and other weapons at the cavalry of the Southern Yue Army. The Mongolian cavalry of the Eight Banners and the Mongolian cavalry of the outer domains, which were a little farther away, shot a rapid rain of arrows with horse bows.

The two wings of both sides were the first to engage in battle. The first row of knights of the Liaodong cavalry was the first to contact the enemy. Under the wave of the flag of Okuay, they immediately changed formation.

There were more than 200 cavalry, only 50 cavalry were left in the middle to guard the chief officer, and the rest was more than 150 cavalry, outflanking the two wings. The two wings are divided into multiple layers, each layer from the inside to the outside, obliquely upward, which is convenient for exerting the power of the horse gun and providing space for the horse gun to shoot.

Layers of riders kept passing and shooting, and the horse's mouth kept bursting with fire, and then turned into smoke and quickly dispersed backwards.

These knights have been good hunters in the mountains and forests since childhood. Shoot wild animals on horseback, collect ginseng beeswax, and pan for raw gold. The fishing, hunting and gathering career allowed them to fight equestrian skills without any problem, but what they lacked was strict discipline and queue and formation training. After arriving in Shandong, Li Huayu made up for this lesson for them.

The horses in their hands added powerful wings to their group of tigers from the Liaodong and Heilongjiang Valleys. The use of a horse gun to shoot on a galloping horse, although the accuracy is not guaranteed, but because of the short distance, it can also hit a lot of shots, and the lethality can break through heavy armor. One by one, the cavalry of the Qing army was hit by the flying projectiles, and the huge one-headed projectiles, under the huge kinetic energy generated at the moment of gunpowder burning, easily broke and tore the iron armor they were wearing, and then pierced the cotton armor in the armor leaf, and finally broke through their innermost chain mail and crashed into their bodies. After the lead bullet rolls in the body, the wound meets the air, and the strong pressure in the body causes the blood in the body to turn into blood arrows and erupt. As the blood was lost in an instant, the riders who had been shot fell backwards from their horses with screams.

Then it was trampled into flesh by the countless horses' hooves that were galloping like a storm behind them.

However, the opponent's cavalry is also superb in horsemanship and is longer than the battle formation. Many people are old fritters on the battlefield, and they have a lot of experience in how to dodge and how to survive on the battlefield. Many buckshots hit their horses. The horses were shot, let out a long scream, and jumped and rolled, throwing the riders off their horses. They rolled on the spot with quick movements, immediately left the wounded war horses, hid in the shallow pit next to them, and threw their flying axes, iron bones and other weapons to the cavalry of the Nanyue Army not far away. These weapons thrown from hiding in the corner are all thrown by people inadvertently, and they are accurate and ruthless.

A cavalryman of the Eastern Liao tribe on the left flank, who had just fired a shot, saw that he had knocked down a Qing army officer with a thousand uniforms from his horse, and before he had time to cheer, he saw a black thing coming towards him quickly, and his strength was very strong, but it was an iron bone. He subconsciously raised the horse gun in his hand to meet it, and with a muffled "bang", the horse gun was torn apart by the huge force, and the gun pipe, handguard, and gun butt were beaten everywhere. Under the tremendous force of the impact, the knight also sat unsteadily on his horse, turned his back to the sky, and rolled backwards and fell off the horse.

There was another, and before he could pull the trigger and open the gun, a sharp arrow was shot in the face, and the rider had no time to dodge, and the arrow passed through the neck.

His stool fell from his hand and fell to the ground. He tried to hold on to the saddle, but was unable to do so. The knight couldn't breathe, he tried to breathe again, but all he could cough up was bloody foam from his mouth, and he felt darkness in front of him. Eventually, he fell straight off his horse.

Although the number of cavalry was not as large as that of the Qing army, the cavalry composed of soldiers from the eastern Liaodong tribe, under the command of Ekui, also fought well. The situation on the battlefield is gradually reversed. They kept throwing all kinds of weapons hanging from their horses, knocking down the oncoming Qing cavalry one by one.

From the perspective of the battlefield, the Qing army invested at least more than 2,000 cavalry in this direction, although most of them were cavalry of the Qing army, and the quality of the horses and the discipline and tactical coordination of the riders were worrying, but the victory was in a large number. However, in some parts of the battlefield, under the command of Ekui, the Liaodong cavalry played the true character of hunters, and they always surrounded more and less. Once you've eliminated the enemies in the encirclement, you're looking for your next target.

The cavalry of the Eastern Liaodong tribe on both sides fully displayed their ability to hunt wild things, constantly using the horses, iron bones, flying axes and other things in their hands to disperse the cavalry of the former Ming army from afar, and did not fight with them at close range, only came in waves, passing by them. A few paces away from their horses, or a distance of one or twenty paces, shoot at them with a stool. Let them lose their formation, lose their formation, and rush into the encirclement of the robe in a hurry.

Waves of cavalry were like knives, constantly speeding past the ranks of the Qing cavalry, and there were constantly gunshots and screams.

Gradually, these Qing cavalry could not support it. There was a downward trend.

"Kill the Tartars!"

The tiger spear in Ekui's hand swung, and the more than 100 cavalry that followed him had already come out of the formation. Looking at the Qing army rolling behind him, a wicked smile appeared on Ekui's face. He quietly removed the newly equipped horsetail grenade from his waist.

"Ready! Cast! ”

More than 100 horsetail grenades filled with tung potassium explosives were twisted by the wolf waist of this group of cavalry on the horses, and threw them towards the densest place of the Qing cavalry in the rear!

(The unkind author's family elders have served as cavalrymen.) He once told the author that when cavalry threw grenades, they always threw them backwards to prevent them from being blown up by their own grenades when their horses were galloping. ）

The tenth son and second-class uncle of Eyidu, inlaid with the yellow flag Melle Zhangjing Yierden, saw that the Qing cavalry in the vanguard was under the dense earth-shattering thunder blow thrown by the Nanyue army, and the war horse roared and was frightened, and it was completely chaotic. was killed by these Nanban chopping melons and vegetables. When even the prancing horse came out, commanding more than 2,000 soldiers and horses under his command to kill!

In the Qing army, Yierden has always had the courage to champion the army, especially good at adaptability, hidden enemies, and all the generals are capable of commenting. In the third year of Chongde, he was awarded the title of Baya Laqizhangjing. In the spring of the fourth year, from the king of Wuying County, Azig Vaming, Yierden marched with 30 people, defeated 1,000 Ming soldiers, and plundered his horses.

In the Battle of Jinzhou, Prince Zheng Zierharang was the right wing soldier. Hong Chengchou went to the aid with his division, northwest of Tunsong Mountain. Prince Zheng ordered the right-wing army to attack it, and the battle was unfavorable, and he retired to Rufeng Mountain. The enemy entered the garrison of the two red flags and the two blue flags, and the troops such as Gushan Ezhen Yechen did not fight. Ilden will be under the jurisdiction of Dol machine and Gongshun King Kong Youde and the Mongolian Ao Han, Zhan Man, Chahar troops to resist the enemy, leaping horses to break through the formation, vertical and horizontal gallop attack, the body was a number of wounds, but the horse, the easy, three battles are excited, the Ming soldiers are surrounded by four together, and the soldiers are surrounded by soldiers. Shang Jia Qiyong, the third class of the reincarnation of the Mailer Zhangjing, gave platinum four hundred.

On his flank, the Yellow Banner's first-class Mel Zhangjing, and the Bachlan of the Nala family also shouted out and swooped towards the position where Ekui was.

"I'm Bachran of the Nara family! You Sauron barbarians, you don't know how to be loyal to the Qing Dynasty, but go to follow the Southern Barbarians. I really don't know whether to live or die! ”

When Ekui and his soldiers from Liaodong Sauron heard this name, their eyes immediately turned red!

Bachlan, Naras, Seju Ibadan. At the beginning of Taizu's soldiers, Baqilan led the crowd back. When Nurhachi initially formulated the eight-flag system, he was subordinate to Manchuria with red flags. Huang Taiji ascended the throne, and each flag set up two dispatch ministers, and Bacchilanzo was the yellow flag. In December of the eighth year of Chongde, he ordered the left and right flanks of the Samushka sub-general to attack the Huerha tribes, and the division was executed, and the edict said: "This trip is far away, and you should not be afraid to work." Get captive, soothe with kind words, and share joys and sorrows. Bring it back and use it for me. Thou shalt be a good deed. "In May of the ninth year, the division returned, went to the palace to set up a banquet, personally drank the gold and labor, divided the livestock, and ordered more than 2,000 households to be in Anye, and entered the first-class Melle Zhangjing. The Baqilan Warhu Erha tribes have brought huge population losses to many tribes in the Heilongjiang River Valley, and Ekui is equivalent to seeing him, which is the enemy's meeting, and he is very red-eyed.

"Kill the Tartars!"

"Kill Nikan!"

In a-for-tat confrontation with the cavalry of Okua, Bachlan led Anahaic, Zilgeshen and other subordinates to rush forward head-on.

The two sides are facing each other, they are gnashing their teeth at each other, and in the battlefield, any superfluous thoughts do not exist, and the only thought is to kill the enemy in front of them.

On the front of the battlefield, the Dongfan soldiers had already rushed into the range of Cao Zhenyan's spearmen.

"Master! To fight or not to fight? In the distance, the battalion as a unit, forming an evacuation formation and rushing towards the Dongfan soldiers, the white cotton cloth wrapped around their heads, in the eyes of the Qing army, was like a beating white flame, blazing, crazy, demonic, but deadly.

"Wait! Let these barbarians rush closer, and our guns will be able to greet them! "Cao Zhenyan is a coated slave in front of Duoduo, but he is a colleague in front of Hong Chengchou, and he is a master in front of these generals, and from time to time he shows the red belt around his waist to show his identity as Jueluo.

"Tell the artillery team that you can bombard the rear of this group of barbarians and block their retreat. Let Ben Jueluo's spear-carrying team teach this group of barbarians how to behave! Cao Zhenyan smirked.

Cao Zhenyan's henchman Bao Yi turned around and rode away, went to the location of the artillery team, and went to find Cao Eryu, the young master in charge of commanding the artillery team, to convey the master's order.

Cao Eryu received his father's military order, so he naturally did not dare to slack off, and immediately ordered his subordinate gunners to operate artillery and prepare to bombard the shock formation of the Dongfan soldiers.

On the position of the Nanyue Army, two more lookout carts were erected. The observers of the artillery team climbed up the rope ladder to a height of 20 meters, and began to look at the four sides with monoculars in hand.

With the help of telescopes and artillery mirrors, the artillery observers of the Southern Guangdong Army easily discovered the location of the Qing artillery team. And use your knowledge of geometric trigonometry to quickly calculate distances.

"The height of the gun, the loading of the pack, the distance..." One by one, the metadata of the shooting was calculated by the calculators in the artillery team as the observers reported the position of the Qing artillery and the distance and distance.

Thanks to the frenzied implementation of compulsory compulsory education over the years, Li Shouhan not only began to gradually eliminate the estrangement between various ethnic groups in South and Central China, and established an identity with Chinese civilization, but also popularized literacy in the army and established a military technology system relying on the mathematical system.

Therefore, when the artillery of the Nanyue Army is still taking direct aiming in other armies, it has entered the point where it can take indirect aiming to shoot by means of instruments and equipment such as gun gauges (round instruments), gun rulers and moment meters (square instruments), measuring rulers, etc., through the book "Measurement Method" for artillery ranging, and the "Fire Attack Essentials" for measuring elevation angles with gun barrels.

What's more, relying on the industrial system and trade of Nanzhong, gunpowder is not a valuable military material for the Nanyue Army, but a daily consumable material. The amount of gunpowder and artillery shells used for daily training is fixed every year, and if the chief officer has not used and consumed these training ammunition under the supervision of the department, he is also picketed in the annual evaluation.

Therefore, the gap between the Qing army and the Shun army and the artillery of the Nanyue army is not only a generation gap, but also a large gap.

"Fire!"

Cao Eryu pulled out the saber at his waist, the tip of the sword pointed diagonally to the south, and roared hoarsely. The sword made of fine iron and steel shimmered with an eerie and bewitching light in the sunlight.

"Fire!"

Niu Lu Zhangjing of the artillery team stared at a pair of big eyes like a cow and stared viciously at a white turban that jumped and roared from far and near, and he also frowned angrily!

In an instant, more than 40 huge artillery groups consisting of six-pounder guns, eight-pounder guns, big franc machines, and twelve-pounder guns began to fire. The gray-white smoke from the muzzles of the guns enveloped all the artillery positions of the Qing army, followed by a loud thunderclap. The huge sound of dozens of cannons firing in a salvo made Cao Eryu feel as if the ground under his feet was shaking, and the cows, horses, donkeys and mules behind him who were pulling and towing the artillery let out a long neigh.

At the same time as the cannons spewed out thick white smoke, the same fierce flames flashed between the muzzles, and the heavy shells that whistled out of the chamber rotated at high speed, speeding through the air, and in the process of rubbing against the air, they made a strange sound that captured people's hearts.

"Boom!"

An eight-pounder cannon shell whistled in, accompanied by a few exclamations from the Dongfan soldiers who were advancing in small steps, and smashed into their charging queue. After the cannonball fell into the crowd, it hit a charging Dongfan soldier Congjia Commander, bringing up a wave of blood arrows that rushed into the sky.

The second, the third, shells came one after another. In the charging Dongfan soldiers, blood arrows and smoke and dust were constantly stirred up, taking away fresh lives one by one. Almost every shell landed, and the lives and limbs of one or two people were gone. Severed limbs and pieces of flesh flew everywhere, and the wounded soldiers screamed loudly, blood spurting out of them like a fountain.

Several shells hit the armor of the Eastern soldiers, and the shattered fragments of the armor flew everywhere. With the help of the huge kinetic energy of the cannonballs, these armor fragments are like sharp blades, flying everywhere irregularly, becoming a sharp weapon to kill and injure the people around them.

"Don't stop, don't be timid, pass fast!"

The two battalion officers who rushed to the forefront of the Dongfan soldiers were also old men who followed Li Huayu all the way from Xiamen, and they knew very well how to deal with the enemy's artillery fire.

"Don't stop, get through fast!"

The sentry officers, team officers, A commanders, and the backbone officers at all levels from the first commander conveyed the commander's orders layer by layer, and the officers and men of the Taiwan Corps, who stubbornly called themselves Dongfan soldiers, roared in unison and trotted all the way in the whole team.

The whole army array, like the undulating tide in the winter sun, the beating white turbans, the glittering spears and birds, and the blood of the brothers on the armor and helmet, glowed with brilliant brilliance in the morning sun.

"These uncivilized savages! Sure enough, I don't take life and death seriously! From the binoculars, it was clear that under the bombardment of their own artillery, the eastern soldiers were still in line and ran quickly towards their own military formation. couldn't help but make Cao Zhenyan exclaim, thinking that no one among the soldiers and horses of the Eight Banners might be able to do this.

But he didn't know that the reason why the Dongfan soldiers dared to do this, in addition to the harsh military discipline and the generous pensions that the brothers who died in the battle could also receive generous pensions, the Nanyue Army had a good field medical treatment and system. Those brothers who died in the war are counted, and the wounded will be carried back on stretchers by a large number of civilian men and auxiliary soldiers who shuttle back and forth between the battlefield and the Chinese army and the rear. In the rear of the army, hundreds of tents had already been set up, and in the tents, Lang Zhong and the auxiliary soldiers of the health camp had already prepared hemostatic drugs and surgeries.

Look at the military flag of the Dongfan soldiers, which has rushed into the range of more than 100 steps, which is the best range for raising the gun, and it happens to be the position where the fire gun is out of reach. It is the blind spot of people's cognition of firearms! Cao Zhenyan couldn't help but stretch out his tongue and lick his chapped lips, "Stand up for the formation!" Get ready to fire! ”

"Hah! Scold! ”

Hundreds of spears were lined up in front of the battle, one person in front, wrapped the long gun pipe with a white cloth, put it on the shoulders of his cotton armor, rode a horse and squatted to stand, and tied the horse. The shooter holds the butt of the gun and checks the ****** and projectile one last time before firing.

Within more than 100 steps behind them, there were layers of gun-raising formations. (To be continued.) )
