Chapter 552: Meat Grinder, Start!
At this time, Dolgon, whose name means badger in Manchu, did not know that Li Huamei was preparing a dog chain and was going to take him around Beijing after conquering Tashan. However, even a pig can feel the noose around his neck getting tighter and tighter from all the signs. Dolgon also knew that Li Huamei, the crazy woman opposite, would definitely not spare him lightly.
The badger did not think about other endings, such as surrendering, sacrificing the road to Jinzhou or something, in exchange for his own net worth and life, and even hoping to continue to be the actual ruler of Liaodong, to keep his wealth and nobility for a long time, and to surrender in exchange for the canonization and mutual market purpose that the starling had exhausted countless soldiers, horses, money and food. But the more I thought about it, the more I realized that it was more than good luck for me to do so. has been curbing the king for a long time, bearing the charge of stubborn resistance, and then he is still the prince, the commander of the two white flags, no matter how it is more cost-effective, I really can't find a reason why Li Huamei can let herself go.
After thinking about it for a long time, the more troubled it became, Dolgon simply didn't want to, he stood up and said to the servants who were waiting beside him, "Have you arranged the meeting between those minions and their families, how long has it been now?" ”
The henchman standing beside Dolgon said cautiously, "Master, it's been more than two quarters of an hour. Dolgon smiled brightly and said, "Okay, it's long enough, it's okay to kiss and love, follow this king to see." ”
With that, he walked out of the courtyard and walked around the Tower Hill Fort. After walking a few steps, an unusually touching scene unfolded in front of Dolgon, and the minions of the two white flags hugged their families and cried, and some of them had their own sons. has a wife, that kind of scene is by no means something that can be shown to the audience by the film and television dramas shot by the directors of divine dramas who have not experienced this kind of scene.
But Dorgon didn't have time to look at it more. He asked the guards to separate the bannermen and their families, and then said to everyone, "My wife and son have seen it, how do you feel?" Everyone quickly knelt down and cried with tears in their eyes, "Thank you for your grace." Dolgon said, "Thank you for so many days, you are all iron-beaten men, and if you were a bad seed, you would have been scared to pee your pants." So. I'm not going to keep your wives and children hostage anymore, it's useless, so I'm going to send them all back to the rear today. In addition, the emperor also asked the emperor to broadcast some food and clothing for them to ensure that they could have a good year. ”
Nodding his hand to call Dong Eshuo, who was limping away, Dolgon looked up and down at the guy with multiple injuries on his left arm and two legs, and nodded: "Eshuo." This king will hand over these two white flag soldiers and the elite families of each flag to you. You minion. You have to use your head to guarantee that they will be escorted back to Shengjing by the king, if. ”
Dolgon was going to say that if something like Hailanzhu happened, this king would behead your dog, but after thinking about it, the war is coming, and these frustrating words are still over!
"Please rest assured, Prince Rui! Even the minions and the hundreds of people under the minions are all dead, and the families of the soldiers must be sent back to Shengjing safely! ”
Dong Eshuo, who had some difficulty moving, struggled to kneel down and kowtow, but was stopped by Dolgon waving his hand. "Forget it! You've got to keep the dog's head for the king, too! In the future, this king will still be of use to you! ”
Seeing that the master is so considerate of his subordinates. I couldn't help but burst into shouts from the crowd, "Long live the general!" Long live the master! ”
Dorgon sighed and said, "Long live this king's bullshit." There is only so much your master can do at the moment, and you minions have also seen the situation, Nanyue Jun is a mad dog, and Guan Ningjun is also a group of fucking mad dogs that have been bitten by mad dogs! These days, the cannons are fighting, the rockets are burning, and people are biting like mad dogs, killing one wave after another, and it seems that they will never be able to finish killing. I'm telling you now, this group of mad dogs captured Tashan Fort, and they were able to spare our group of colorful flagmen and clothed soldiers, do you believe it? This group of mad dogs rushed to Shengjing, they can spare your wives and children, do you believe it? ”
Everyone was silent, and Dolgon saw that the effect had been achieved, and continued: "Now we are the Lord of Yama of our family, we live one more day, our family can also live one more day, if we can't hold on, the group of mad dogs of the Guanning Army of the Southern Yue Army will rush through Tashan, Jinzhou, Guangning, and then kill all the way to Shengjing." If only Guan Ningjun was concerned, we would still be able to spend our lives. But how can we buy the Nanyue Army? They are not short of money or food, they only need land and our heads, but our heads, our family's heads, are you willing to give it! The crowd was silent for a while, but soon burst into a roar: "No! Dorgon smiled and said, "Well, that's what I want." I won't say anything else, minions, come on. ”
Looking at the backs of the family members and wounded soldiers of the brigade walking north in the direction of Jinzhou, and the sobbing and crying faintly coming from the queue of carriages and horses, Dong Eshuo endured the pain and jumped off the horse, "Prince Rui, master, the slave will give you a farewell!" The minions went to Shengjing first, and instructed the minions there to prepare a celebration banquet for you! Then wait for you to meet you outside Shengjing City when you are triumphant! ”
Dolgon didn't say much, just waved his hand and ordered Dong Eshuo to leave quickly, so as not to delay any more time.
"In today's battle, I put a Jiala on each of the two white flags on the front line of the former enemy, and this Jiala only needs to fight for one day, and after the battle, he will come down to rest and recuperate one night, and go to Tashan Fort to drink wine and eat meat. Each department will change another armor to go up! If this armor is exhausted and can no longer be fought, a armor will be filled in from the back team! A nail on a nail horn! Until the two of us! ”
Standing in front of the fortifications that had been repaired by Tashan for several days without sleep, Dorgon made the above deployment adjustments. Everyone, Niu Lu Zhangjing, Jia Lazhangjing, and Mel Zhangjing, looked at the fortifications that were still rough and shabby although they had been repaired day and night by those Baoyi Aha auxiliaries, and then looked at the open land that was ravaged by artillery fire and similar to the surface of the moon a few steps away, and they couldn't help but feel a pang in their hearts, they knew that today was the last moment.
Just now, the troops with two white flags hid behind the breastwork and trench along the communication ditch, and the dense artillery fire once again came to the land of Tashan, and the huge mortar shells, cutting through the graceful arc, smashed the frozen soil, and the scorching twelve-pounder shells. With the arrogance of a rampage, he slammed headlong into the breastwork that was as hard as steel, smashing the breastwork mixed with seawater, mud, and wheat straw into the breaches one after another. Mixed with the shells, there were also oil arrows and medicine arrows. From time to time, clouds of fire and dirt exploded between the trench and the breastwork. The medicine arrows flew everywhere and claimed the lives of a dozen bannermen lying behind the breastwork. Many of the soldiers, whose armor had been ignited by oil arrows, screamed and rolled around on the ground, trying to extinguish the flames. There was chaos on the position, and at this time, the sound of artillery gradually thinned out, and several strong men in ambush at the forefront in the distance reported the latest enemy situation with bird calls, and the attacking troops of the Ming army also showed their figures in the distance.
Listening to the Ming army's artillery gradually stopped, a low cheer suddenly broke out in the trenches. The officers and men of the two white flags were familiar with the offensive routine of the Ming army, and as long as the artillery fire stopped, it was the beginning of the attack. But. Today, I felt that something was wrong, and some people couldn't help but look out through the arrows of the bunker.
In winter, the sun rises late, and there is fog on the sea, and when the fog gradually clears. There was some noise on the other side. Then came a chant of unity, and the soldiers' eyes widened, but when they really found out what was happening on the other side, the officers and soldiers were shocked at that moment.
Under the gloomy sky, there were countless flags of the Ming army, rows and rows of soldiers each holding swords and guns, and all the red uniforms of the Ming army were in sight, one phalanx after another. There is no end in sight, and there is no telling how many troops there are. It gives people the feeling that the heavens and the earth are dyed with a fiery red color.
In front of the phalanxes. Auxiliaries pushed out shield carts from the array, slowly moving forward in front of the phalanx, pushing firmly but slowly forward on the rugged position. There were at least three to forty shield carts in front of each phalanx, and several flags were erected on each shield cart, and there were other men and horses following closely behind the shield carts, but it was impossible to see how many men and horses followed behind the shield carts from a distance. But. People can clearly see from the bunker that not far behind the shield cart, there are many auxiliary soldiers and servants, pushing many wheelbarrows, chicken carts, and straw bags of different sizes, presumably filled with dirt and other materials to fill in the trenches.
From the front of Tashan to Baitai Mountain, the formation of black pressure was lined one after another, and Wu Sangui came up and put in a range of thousands of people from a ranger battalion, plus hundreds of elite soldiers to act as the vanguard.
The salty sea breeze was mixed with fine snowflakes, and the Ming army in front of him was lined up one after another, wearing red mandarin duck jackets, and rushed towards the Qing army's fortifications with chaotic but firm steps. At the back of the team, there were bursts of exciting military music, but in the ears of the Qing soldiers, it was like a magic sound! Someone shouted repeatedly: "Lord Zhangjing! Master Zhangjing! Do you want the gunner to open fire and kill this group of dog thieves?! ”
Immediately, there was a burst of scolding: "Stupid! At such a distance, can our guns reach it!? There is also a shield car to cover in front! Wasting gunpowder, you want to die......"
Najia Lazhangjing is also a figure who has followed Huang Taiji and Dolgon for many years, whether it is the most authentic Mongolian cavalry of the Golden Family under the command of Lin Dan Khan to attack like a storm, or the Ming army troops who are good at firearms, they can easily shoot firearms that fly sand and stones, compared to the countless battle flags in front of him, countless soldiers, although they did not fire an arrow, but the pressure brought to him is huge, Lin Dan Khan's Mongolian cavalry and the Ming army in the past can be said to be not worth mentioning at all.
"Artillery ready! Wait for the dogs to get close and give Lao Tzu a hard bang! ”
Dolgon only invested two armor troops in the front line, but placed nearly a hundred large and small artillery pieces, so to speak, these two armor troops are to protect these artillery!
The shield carts in front of the Ming army were pushed closer and closer, and when they were close to two hundred paces, Jia Lazhangjing could see their appearance clearly. I saw that the shield carts were front of them with high and thick wooden planks, and the wooden planks were nailed with thick leather quilts, and between the quilts and quilts, they were filled with damp soil, and they were frozen hard by the cold weather. The toughness of the leather itself, coupled with the hardness of the frozen soil and wooden boards, can effectively resist the firing of firearms and artillery at close range, as for the arrows fired by the Qing army's infantry bows and horse bows. Underneath the body of the shield car are several wooden wheels, which rotate flexibly. The wooden wheel is wrapped with a thick layer of raw rubber, although the spear piercing is penetrated, but it has a good shock absorption effect, if it is pushed on flat ground, I am afraid that it will be indomitable.
"These damn dogs!" Najia Lazhangjing scolded. But he can't be blamed, in the Eight Banners Army, this kind of shield vehicle direction is their standard equipment, and the Houjin Army rose up to attack the city. Unstoppable. Today it is being used to give back to others in the way of others.
Look at the two hundred steps entered, which happened to be the range of those chaotic artillery guns such as the Franc machine bronze cannon, the general, and the tiger squat cannon on the position. Jia Lazhangjing gritted his back molars and waved the recognition flag in his hand fiercely. "Fire!"
On either side of the main bunker in Jialazhangjing were eight bronze cannons of the Franc machine, each mounted on a four-wheeled iron frame, with a range of 100 zhang, under the command of a Fendeshku who had been transferred from the Ox Lu of the Clothed Soldiers.
There were three gunners next to each Franc bronze cannon, most of whom were selected from among the Ming prisoners, that is, because they could operate the artillery. was selected into the coated soldiers and enjoyed the same treatment as the flag soldiers. At this time, each Franc bronze cannon was loaded with ammunition early, and the order was heard. Immediately, one of the gunners next to each cannon took out a long red-hot iron hook from a blazing iron frame next to it and lit it on the fire door.
"Boom, boom, boom!" With a few sounds, eight Franc bronze cannons opened fire one after another. As the eight bronze cannons of the Franc machine fired, a pyrotechnic fire connected by artillery fire burst out on the entire Qing defense line.
All the Qing soldiers in the bunker held their breath and looked at the projectiles fired by the Francophone artillery.
Eight fiery iron balls tail with gray-white pyrotechnic trails. Far away in the direction of the Ming army's shield car.
There was a loud bang. An iron ball hit a shield cart from afar, causing the shield cart to stagger and fly sawdust, and the body let out a groan of pain, but it was not beaten away, but even so, it was also frightened that the color of the Ming army behind the shield car changed, and they turned around and wanted to scatter and flee.
But then a scream rang out. The selectors who followed behind the shield cart did not hesitate to pick up the weapons in their hands. Hack to death the deserter who fled at the head, "Whoever dares to flee, this is an example!" ”
The other cannonball was better, piercing the quilt and frozen soil of the shield cart, and firmly embedded in the shield cart. The huge impact force stirred up wood chips on the shield cart and spikes flew everywhere, killing and injuring several Ming soldiers in the vicinity from afar. His face was covered with sharp wooden thorns, and he was drenched in blood, and he was knocked to the ground. But fortunately, they were all skin injuries, but they were not life-threatening.
This round of artillery was the result, and the remaining six shells did not hit, only one iron ball hit the ground and jumped a few times. It's just a pity that if the ground is flat and hard, it is the favorite terrain of Napoleon's dwarf. The ricochet will cause a secondary kill. But the open field in front of him was full of potholes, and it only smashed the wheel of a chicken cart behind the shield cart. The iron ball was still in full swing, and rolled forward to break the calf of the man who was pushing the cart, revealing white bone stubble.
The man hugged his broken leg and cried, but the people around him didn't look at it, but walked on, and someone passed by him, patted him on the head, "Hold on!" Lang Zhong is here in the back! ”
Seeing the shield cart still advancing slowly, the Qing officers and soldiers who were shouting and excited about the salvo of nearly a hundred cannons in the bunker just now suddenly fell silent.
"Grandma's! Keep banging! Bomb them to pieces with cannons......"
Najia Lazhangjing almost shouted loudly.
But
The salvo of nearly 100 artillery pieces roared again, and the shells crossed a beautiful arc and fell in the advancing ranks of the Ming army, and the entire Qing defense line was shrouded in smoke from the artillery, through the smoke, it can be seen that the shooting effect this time is much stronger than the first salvo. Many shield carts were split in half, and even fell to the ground in pieces, and the Ming soldiers behind the shield carts were beaten to the ground.
Seeing this scene, I couldn't help but cheer from the Qing army from Jialazhangjing to Qiding!
But everyone didn't finish cheering, and they opened their eyes to look at the incredible Qiqi in front of them, and the formation in front of them was neat, and it seemed that there was no damage at all.
Jia Lazhangjing even widened his bull's eyes at the qiē in front of him, according to his impression of the experience of the southern barbarians using artillery fire, after such a close round of artillery salvo, the enemy's formation would become broken.
With such a fierce shelling, there was no such thing as a commonplace rout among the Ming army, and no one even turned their heads back, except for the sound of drums coming from the back of the queue, the whole formation seemed very calm.
Facing the small snowflakes and ice slag falling in mid-air, hundreds of shield carts in front of the Ming army slowly moved towards the Qing army's defensive position like a hill.
In addition to the heavy footsteps of the opponent on the entire battlefield, the wind occasionally swept by, and no sound could be heard, and the entire battle line showed a rare calm!
"Sure enough, I've been with the Southern Barbarians for a long time, and I've learned a little bit about the Southern Barbarian Soldiers!"
At the rear of the position, Dorgon and Dodor held their binoculars and watched the opening scene coldly.
The distance between the two sides was obviously getting closer and closer, pushing the shield cart, over the open field that had swallowed the Pao Ze brothers not long ago, and over the blood-red frozen land. The Ming army was getting closer and closer to the defense line of the Qing army, advancing against artillery fire, but there was only the majestic and passionate military music in their ears, that is, the blood of the veterans in the Guanning army was boiling to the extreme. (To be continued......)
