Chapter 982: The Ottoman Empire's Fiasco (5)

Erconi took it for granted. "Nature.2

War, in addition to a certain amount of strategic assistance and strengthening, then there is only a duel of absolute strength left.

A good strategy can surprise the weak over the strong, depending on the situation.

And if you don't use stratagem, it's absolute strength.

The Ottoman army and the Qing army have been fighting for nearly ten years, and the balance of power between the two sides has already changed from the initial Ottoman Empire to the two sides equal, and then at this moment, the comprehensive strength of the Ottoman army has been under the Qing army.

Without absolute strength and without any plans to calculate the Qing army, Erconi even thought that the Ottoman army could defeat the Qing army with a powerful attack. You know, Dolgon has used a lot of tricks, and at this moment the Ottoman army was lured to this Kamai valley by Dolgon's strategy, and was ambushed by Dolgon, and was being divided and surrounded.

A young man is a young man after all, and Erconi actually has no talent for leading troops to fight at all, but he is extremely arrogant. Such a person, in the battle between the two sides, still has the army of the weaker side, and there is no reason to want to be undefeated.

At least 820,000 Qing troops surrounded the 580,000 Ottoman Legions. The number of the Qing army was more than 200,000 more than the Ottoman army, although it is said that the Indian flag, which occupies most of the number, is not as good as the Ottoman soldiers, but the huge number is enough to make up for the shortfall, and the absolute strength completely crushes the Ottoman army.

The Qing army used the powerful cavalry as the horns, and led a large number of infantry to constantly penetrate the Ottoman army's military formation, dividing the Ottoman army. The Ottoman army was first divided into three parts, and now it has been divided into more than a dozen.

I have to say that the Qing army is very strong, you must know that although the Ottoman army is relatively low because of the change of Erconi, the commander of Hulai, and the ambush, the morale is relatively low, but the Ottoman Empire is a centuries-old empire, the military array is extremely mature, and the offense and defense are complementary, but it is still divided into more than a dozen pieces by the Qing army so quickly, you can imagine the strength of the Qing army.

Of course, the strength of the Qing army was mainly manifested in the Manchurian Eight Banners.

The Manchurian Eight Banners had been at war with the Ming Dynasty in the Central Plains for decades, and had surrendered to Mongolia and Korea, and there were wars every year, and the war experience was very rich, and the way of dividing the enemy army was extremely skillful, because of this, the Qing army was able to divide the Ottoman army so quickly under the horns of the Manchu Eight Banner cavalry.

Divided into a dozen pieces, the morale of the Ottoman army was even lowered.

Under the siege of the Qing army, the Ottoman army was defeated and suffered heavy casualties.

"Boom! Rumble! ---The artillery of the Qing army also bombarded the Ottoman army that was divided and surrounded all the time, and Ottoman soldiers were killed and wounded every moment.

In particular, the 100 percussion imitation Shenwei cannons, although the shells are also made of black powder, but the charge of this bullet-type cannonball is obviously more than that of ordinary spherical cannonballs, and the power is naturally more than half a time.

Moreover, the degree of replacement of shells for percussive imitation Shenwei cannons is very fast, and the power of a hundred percussive imitation Shenwei cannons is by no means less than the power of three hundred imitation Shenwu cannons.

In less than half an hour after the battle, new changes appeared on the battlefield.

In the area where the musket teams of the two sides were engaged, the 27,000 Qing musket teams completely crushed the 50,000 Ottoman musket teams by relying on 15,000 of them being rifles and the assistance of artillery fire.

"Bang bang bang bang---- "Rows of Ottoman musketeers fell in every round of the Qing army's musket corps.

As for the Ottoman musket team, due to the absolute inferiority in terms of range and shooting, it was almost impossible to kill and wound many soldiers of the Qing army's musket team, and nearly 40,000 Ottoman musket soldiers were killed, while the Qing army lost less than 200 people, and the casualty ratio was 200 times.

Although the Ottoman musketeers were all composed of elite Ottoman soldiers, they saw their 40,000 musketeers killed, while the Qing musketeers were almost unharmed, and the remaining 10,000 Ottoman musketeers were completely desperate.

This kind of battle is no different from being slaughtered, and their muskets are too backward compared to the muskets of the Qing army.

"Bang bang bang ---" With another round of gunfire from the Qing army's musket team, the Ottoman soldiers were once again harvested, and the Ottoman soldiers killed exceeded 40,000, leaving less than 10,000.

Unable to be defeated, fear spread in the hearts of the nearly 10,000 remaining Ottoman musketeers.

Finally, under another round of gunfire from the Qing army, the remaining Ottoman musketeers collapsed tonight and began to retreat backwards.

The battle between the musketeers and the musketeers is about attacking and shooting, and once one side retreats, it means defeat.

The Ottoman musketeers were defeated by the Qing army's musket team, and after 40,000 musketeers were killed and wounded, the remaining nearly 10,000 musketeers had completely lost the courage to continue fighting.

"Attack forward!" The commander of the Qing army's musket team, Jihar, ordered the Qing army's musket team to press forward.

"Bang bang ---" The soldiers of the Qing army's musketeers quickly attacked and advanced, killing a number of Ottoman musketeers who were constantly retreating.

The rapid offensive advance of the Qing army's musket team was like the last straw that broke the camel's back, and the remaining nearly 10,000 Ottoman musketeers completely collapsed, and many Ottoman musketeers threw away their arquebuses and fled backwards in fear.

However, this is a battlefield, and soldiers on both sides are fighting fiercely on all sides, and they cannot exit the battlefield when they retreat.

Moreover, the retreating Ottoman musket team could not continue to form an effective offensive and defensive formation, and the Ottoman musket soldiers who did not form a formation were like tigers with no teeth and broken legs, worse than sheep, completely deprived of any protection.

"Poof!" A Qing cavalryman rode past and flew up after the head of a fleeing Ottoman musketeer soldier, blood spraying from his severed neck, staining the battlefield.

"Poof! Burst! Poof---- "Because of the rout in all directions, more and more Ottoman musketeers were slashed and killed.

Not to mention the cavalry of the Qing army, even the weakest infantry of the Qing army's Indian flag could torture and kill the defeated Ottoman musketeers at will.

Without forming a dense firing formation, the arquebus in the hands of the Ottoman musket soldiers was a useless burning stick, and they were of course unable to resist in the face of the steel knives of the Qing soldiers.

As more and more Ottoman musketeers were slaughtered, there were almost no Ottoman musketeers still on the battlefield, and the Ottoman musketeers were wiped out.

Without the containment of the Ottoman musketeers, the 27,000 Qing musketeers were completely liberated and began to participate in major battles on other battlefields, slaughtering other Ottoman armies that were divided and surrounded.
