Chapter 380: Yinshuke's Thoughts
The main landing site of the Qi army was chosen Beixinkou, north of the Shahe River, where there was already a stronghold of the Qi army, and the Tartars did not dare to approach the sea, so the landing operation was not disturbed in any way.
On the afternoon of the fifth day of the fifth month of May, the Qi army built a pontoon bridge over the Shahe River, and it took only 20,000 troops to cross the Shahe River in two hours.
Subsequently, the Qi army occupied Yangguanbao, an important stronghold of the Jin army's sentry cavalry, and lost this foothold, and the Jin army's sentry cavalry could only set out from Fuzhou to reconnoiter and harass, and the itinerary was greatly increased, and the combat radius was also reduced.
And the landing light cavalry reconnaissance company of the Qi army began to become active.
Sentinels on both sides engaged in dense skirmishes in the areas north of Yangguanbao and south of Fuzhou.
In this kind of light cavalry fight, the Jin army had the advantage of horsemanship, and the Qi army had the advantage of firepower (the reconnaissance light cavalry was equipped with two flintlock pistols), and the two sides fought inextricably and suffered heavy losses.
Under the hard work of three cavalry reconnaissance companies, the Tartar sentry cavalry lost the ability to interfere with the actions of the main forces of the Qi army.
At noon on the sixth day of the fifth month, the main force of the Qi army had approached the city of Fuzhou along the official road.
On this morning, Yinshu was still hesitating whether to hold on to the city or attack in the field.
The former can enjoy the benefits of defensive warfare, and it is estimated that Ahab, who is demoralized, can also exert some combat effectiveness with firearms and spears.
However, defending the city is not a combat method that the Jin army armor soldiers are good at, and Yinshu can always be suspicious, and it is also good news that he can hold the city and align the artillery of the army, because the opponent can slowly aim at the target through a few test shots to get more hits.
Since the Jin army had its own cannon, all of them have conducted many test firings to familiarize themselves with the use of artillery, and silvercraft is naturally no exception.
According to his own observations, the heavier the shell, the more powerful and the longer the range.
But the farther you hit, the lower the accuracy of the hit, but the kind of small-caliber tiger squat, magic machine and the like, the hit accuracy is much higher.
Large artillery seems to only be able to deal with immobile targets such as city walls, so if you want to use the cannon in the field, it is more appropriate to fire a bowl cannon with a shotgun.
When Yinshuke was still hesitating between field battles and defending the city, the news of the approaching Qi army came, and the hesitation ended.
"Out of town, field!"
Silversmith can grit his teeth and order.
"Master, do you want to fight in the field?" Meng An, who received the order, hesitated and asked, "Can those Aha do it?" ”
"Send someone to watch those Ahas, whoever retreats will kill whoever retreats, and if one team retreats, one team will kill another, and if they are broken by Han dogs, they will all be killed!"
Yinshu said hatefully and fiercely:
"Tell the people in the city who haven't retreated yet, don't care about that bit of property, everything you can't take away is burned, and you must go out of the city to Gaizhou within an hour!"
"What are we going to do?" Na Meng'an asked again.
"Let's see if there is a chance, if Aha can bring some opportunities, let's rush to see." Wanyan Yinshu can reply: "If Aha can't do anything, let's retreat north directly!" ”
Meng An exclaimed: "Then ......, in that case, Liaoyang will definitely not be able to spare our ......." ”
Yinshuke's arrangement was actually to test the enemy with six thousand Ahadam meat shields, and if there was no opportunity to take advantage of it, he even planned to give up the battle and retreat directly with only four thousand armor soldiers.
Well, considering that most of the soldiers have horses, and the women and children who are still in Fuzhou City are unable to move, it is estimated that this Bo Jilie also wants to use women and children to attract the attention of the enemy and gain more time to escape.
If it is understandable that Yan Lou Room failed in the battle, Yin Shuke's plan can only be said to be an escape and fall into the hands of the three princes, I am afraid that it will be even worse than the unlucky guy of Lou Room.
"What are you afraid of, Lou Mu will die because his men have suffered heavy casualties, and when he retreats from Gaizhou, there are only more than a thousand defeated soldiers left, so he must die."
Wanyan Yinshu said with a hideous face:
"As long as we keep the main armor soldiers, and the four thousand armor soldiers are huddled together, even if Liaoyang wants Lao Tzu's life, they have to imagine whether they can easily take Lao Tzu!"
"It's really not good, let's go to Goryeo and grab a piece of land to establish ourselves as kings!"
That Meng An was stunned with his mouth open, he didn't expect that his master already had such a rebellious idea.
But on second thought, it seems to be a no-brainer.
Is it like this, the weak surrender to the strong, and the strongest is the Great Khan.
If the Great Khan wanted the lives of his subordinates, the nobles who had their own troops and respected themselves would not have the idea of being foolish.
Lou Room is the loss of the headquarters is really helpless, Yinshu Ke has the main force in his hands still exists, how can he not let his own subordinates hit the powerful enemy army.
"Hey, the minion will arrange it!"
……
"Go ahead! The water falls behind, and Lao Tzu will kill whoever he wants! ”
Ah Hudie brandished a big knife and together with a few companions, he forced a small phalanx composed of more than 500 Aha of various ethnic groups to move forward.
Five hundred paces away from them was the Qi army's great array, and those who were going to kill were rapidly approaching this side at a rhythmic pace.
Ah Hudie yelled, but his heart was very bottomless.
He knew that the Han people on the other side had defeated the troops of the Bo Ji Lie Wanyan Lou Room in a face-to-face melee battle with fewer victories.
At that time, it was still a powerful true female and real armor soldier, and the first one who was forced to stand in front by Ah Hudie and his companions was the unreliable Ahha.
Just standing behind these minions, Ah Hudie could also feel that the dense crowd in front of him was filled with negative emotions such as panic and panic.
According to the orders given by the master of Meng'an, Ah Hudi and his companions must force the Aha phalanx to advance to a distance of 80 paces, and the Qi army will fire one round, then 50 paces, 30 steps, and one round of fire each, and after emptying all three bullets, the pikemen will advance and stab the enemy, creating an opportunity for the Jurchen iron cavalry.
However, Ah Hudie was very suspicious that these minions could not exert the power of the muskets and complete the tactical actions ordered by their masters.
Aside from the morale factor, these minions didn't have a chance to fire and test fire before the battle!
The two armies were facing each other, and the Qi army was very determined, and all the soldiers listened to the cheerful drum beat and the officers' orders with expressionless faces and quickly approached the enemy.
With the neat steps of the soldiers, the phalanx was like a whole, emitting a terrifying roar, and the ground trembled slightly, knocking down on the hearts of the Jin soldiers.
In contrast, the Jin army's phalanx, which consisted of Aha slaves, looked disheveled, and when it began to advance, ten five-hundred-man infantry phalanxes lined up in a row could still maintain a neat formation.
But after walking fifty steps, between the phalanx, between the columns and rows inside the phalanx, it is already distorted.
Walking another fifty steps, the Aha people in the front row were close to collapse under the mental pressure, and many people stopped trembling, but the back row was still under the pressure of the supervising team to maintain the original number of steps, but before the battle started, there were several phalanxes in the front and rear rows crowded together, and they could not advance or retreat, and the scene was very embarrassing.
