Chapter 231: Shelling the Qing Army's Camp (4)
"Your Majesty, our Super Weiyuan Cannon has not reached the limit range, and the Ying Long Army can at least advance another kilometer, why don't you continue to attack?" Niu Yongsheng asked puzzled.
"Don't talk nonsense, go and carry out my orders, I want you to try your best to pretend that the range of the super mighty cannon is only three thousand meters, and after the Qing army camps again, shell the Qing army again, even if Dolgon is not killed today, but I want him to be at peace today, and I honestly move the camp twice!" Zhu Cihong smiled evilly.
Dolgon personally came out to command the Qing army, his figure was naturally discovered, and the news reached Zhu Cihong's ears, Zhu Cihong was naturally very disappointed, but he could only helplessly sigh that Dolgon's life was great.
The ultimate range of the Super Weiyuan cannon was four thousand meters, and now the Qing army had withdrawn to three thousand meters away.
"Ding Ding Ding"
"The emperor Mingjin has withdrawn his troops." Huang Degong and the others heard Mingjin's voice and glanced in the direction of Xuzhou City.
"Order, Ying Longjun stop attacking and return to Xuzhou!"
The five armies of Ying Long's army did not continue to attack the Qing army, and slowly withdrew in the direction of Xuzhou City.
"Boom, boom, boom" The twenty super Weiyuan cannons in Xuzhou City did not stop shelling, and continued to shell in the direction where the Qing army was located, but none of the shells could reach 3,000 meters away.
The Qing army camp was forced back by the Super Weiyuan Cannon and Ying Long's army for more than 1,000 meters.
"Regent, the artillery of the Ming army should not be able to hit here!" A Qing army general looked at the shells that kept exploding more than a hundred meters away, and finally breathed a sigh of relief and said to Dolgon.
"Herald, re-encamp!" Dolgon's face was extremely gloomy and he ordered.
It was estimated that the artillery of the Ming army in Xuzhou City should not be able to hit here, and the Qing army began to camp three thousand meters away from Xuzhou City again.
The five armies of the Ying Long Army returned to Xuzhou with a great victory, and the people cheered and the army was excited!
"Your Majesty! In this battle, the Ying Long Army destroyed more than 260 cannons and more than 400 giant crossbows of the Qing army, killing and wounding more than 60,000 Qing troops, and won a great victory! "Huang Degong, Ji Feng and other five army commanders came to Zhu Cihong and knelt on one knee to report the victory!
"Good! Ying Long is mighty! In this battle of Xuzhou, I will win! Zhu Cihong laughed and said.
"Ying Long is mighty! Win! Win! The whole army of Ying Longjun cheered, and the momentum shook the sky.
At this moment, whether it is the soldiers of the Ying Long Army or the ordinary soldiers of the Ming Army, the morale of the soldiers has all climbed to the top, and the people in Xuzhou City are also full of confidence, and the hearts of the Xuzhou army and the people have never been more cohesive.
Zhu Cihong is still laughing heartily, full of pride, although this time failed to kill Dolgon, it is a pity, but it also hit the Qing army hard, at this time for this decisive battle in Xuzhou, he already has at least eighty percent of the chance of winning in his heart, the Qing army is not worried, it is a matter of time before the Ming Dynasty wins the final victory! Zhu Cihong is full of confidence!
"Niu Yongsheng, you are watching here, once the Qing army has set up camp, you will shell the Qing army camp again!" Zhu Cihong ordered Niu Yongsheng before returning to the palace.
Although the distance is more than 3,000 meters, Zhu Cihong can still faintly see the Qing army camping on the city tower, there is no doubt that Dolgon was deceived, thinking that the range of the super mighty cannon in Xuzhou City could not exceed 3,000 meters, so Dolgon suffered a big loss!
"The last will obey!" Niu Yongsheng smiled bloodthirsty.
Huang Degong and the others also looked at each other and smiled, they didn't understand why the emperor didn't let them continue to attack to the extreme range of the Super Weiyuan Cannon, it turned out to be the idea of fighting.
Huang Degong and others don't feel a pity, Ying Long's army is in the cooperation of twenty powerful super Weiyuan cannons to achieve such a record, after the Qing army retreated to three thousand meters away, the city tower can no longer clearly observe the situation of the Qing army, if Ying Long's army continues to attack, the super Weiyuan cannon is easy to accidentally injure Ying Longjun himself, and Dolgon is not a vegetarian, the Qing army still has more than 160 red-coated cannons, if the Ying Long army is really too far away from Xuzhou City, it is easy to be surrounded by the Qing army, even if it can be killed in the end, the losses must be very large, the gains outweigh the losses, and it is very exciting to play Dolgon again with the last kilometer of range.
No, Dolgon ordered people to re-set up the camp, and before he had time to see Duoduo's injuries, he suddenly heard the sound of cannons coming from the direction of Xuzhou City again.
Before Dorgon could react, twenty shells from the Super Mighty Cannons landed in the camp that had just been set up.
The power of the super Weiyuan cannon is already stronger than the red-coated cannon, and the power of the bombardment of twenty super Weiyuan cannons is enough to be worth the power of the bombardment of more than 30 red-coated cannons.
"Lord Wang, the artillery of the Ming army has bombarded my camp again!" Several of the Eight Banners generals rushed into Dolgon's tent, their tones slightly frightened.
You know, their camp is already more than 3,000 meters away from Xuzhou, the artillery of the Ming army can still bombard, how powerful the artillery of the Ming army must be to do it, the Ming not only has the powerful musket in the hands of the Ying Long army, but also such a powerful cannon, this is too shocking, these Qing army generals feel that they should be dreaming.
The Qing Dynasty has been invincible in the use of troops against the Ming Dynasty for decades, and countless Ming troops have been defeated.
Dolgon was also shocked, gritting his teeth and gurgling, and his face was so black that he could spit out a mouthful of blood even if it was a little irritated.
"Order, the army continues to retreat and camp five thousand meters away from Xuzhou!" Dolgon's fists were clenched tightly, his nails were digging into his flesh, he was furious, extremely unwilling, but no matter how unwilling he was, he could only order the army to continue to retreat, and he could not let the camp be exposed to the range of the Ming army's cannons all the time.
This time, fearing the power of the twenty super mighty cannons in Xuzhou City, the Qing army could only camp more than 5,000 meters outside Xuzhou City.
In such a series of blows, the Qing army not only suffered heavy losses, but the morale of the soldiers was directly knocked to the lowest point, especially some generals of the Han Banner Army, who were even more moved, and began to fear whether it was wrong for them to defect to the Manchu Qing Dynasty and fight against the Ming Dynasty for the Manchu Qing Dynasty.
Originally, they thought that the Manchu Eight Banners were the first army in the world, invincible in the world, and led by such a majestic and strategic person as Dolgon, they would be able to dominate the world, but what did they see today, the Manchu Eight Banners and the Mongols were defeated and retreated under the offensive of the Ming Yinglong Army, and suffered heavy casualties, how could they not worry, once the Manchu Qing could not dominate the world in the future, then they would be the enemy of the Manchu Qing Dynasty today, what good end could they have!
Dorgon came out of Dorgon's camp, where he had lost one of his right arm and was so badly wounded that he was almost a cripple.
"It's a pity, the fifteenth brother's injuries are too serious, I'm afraid I won't be able to continue to command the troops in the future!" Dorgon gritted his teeth, and at one point felt like vomiting blood.
Duoduo is not only Dorgon's younger brother, but also Dolgon's indispensable right-hand man, now that Dordor is abolished, it is equivalent to breaking one of Dorgon's arms, Dolgon can endure not directly spit out a mouthful of blood, which is already very able to show his forbearance.
"Huh?" On the way back to his camp, Dolgon suddenly noticed the fear of war among some generals, especially some Han Banner Army and Mongol generals.
"Suffered! This time the blow to morale is too great! Dolgon was gloomy and could not accept such an outcome.
Generally speaking, it is already difficult to fight a big war at such a time.
A few days ago, the attack on the periphery of the East and West Gates and today, two major defeats, the Manchu Qing lost a total of nearly 130,000 horses, that is to say, the Manchu Qing Qing only had more than 470,000 troops left at this time, although it was still more than 100,000 more than the Ming army in Xuzhou City, but the Ming army in Xuzhou City was demoralized at this time, and the Qing army was demoralized, facing a strong city like Xuzhou with high walls and deep rivers.
If it weren't for the fact that there was a backhand, and he vaguely felt that this was probably the only chance for the Qing Dynasty to dominate the world, Dolgon was very unwilling, and he himself might have the idea of retiring from the army.
"No, this is the battle of national fortune between the Qing Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty, and it must not be lost!"
"Yes, I can't fail, and neither will I, Dorgon! Yinglong's musket is sharp, but now it is the rainy season, it may rain at any time, I still have a secret road to secretly send thousands or even tens of thousands of soldiers and horses into Xuzhou City, as long as a heavy rain, you can open the gate of Xuzhou to attack Xuzhou, the Ming army firearms can not be used in the heavy rain, face-to-face combat is by no means my opponent of the Qing Dynasty! Dorgon thought, regaining his confidence.
"Immediately gather all the generals to the king's camp to discuss matters!" Dorgon commanded to one of the white-flaged generals who followed beside him.
"Wow!"
Soon, Dorgon summoned all the high-ranking generals to the Chinese army's tent to discuss the matter.
"Li Huaxi, are all the Ming army costumes that this king asked you to prepare?" Dolgon asked Lee Hwa-hee.
"Back to the regent, everything is ready, there are 10,000 sets of Ming soldiers' clothing, and the inner Ying in Xuzhou City has also been contacted, as long as the regent gives an order, he can implement the plan and attack Xuzhou in one fell swoop!" Lee Hwa-hee said.
After today's defeat, Li Huaxi actually has a faint regret in his heart, feeling that the Manchu Qing may not really be able to dominate the world, but now, it is impossible for his Li family to return to the Ming Dynasty, so he can only follow the Manchu Qing to the dark.
"Good! Just waiting for a heavy rain, he attacked Xuzhou and took the life of the little emperor of the Ming Dynasty to avenge the fifteenth brother of the king! ”
With the Qing army plotting, one of the most tragic decisive battles is about to begin!
