Chapter 107: The Battle of the Han River II

In this round of confrontation, the Qing army suffered a lot of losses.

First, this kind of impact has always suffered losses. Second, Xia Jun was originally an elite, and this time the firearms were quite complete. And there are also a lot of new firearms.

When it comes to fighting the Dutch, the bird guns are not as good as the Dutch's firearms. This situation also attracted Zhang Xuan's attention, and Zhang Xuan ordered the Manufacturing Bureau to prevent a Western firecracker, the newly shaped firecracker was heavier than the bird's gun, the range was also far, and the armor-piercing power was much stronger.

The Qing army did not know such a situation, so their estimated direction of firing the arrows was a little closer.

This small mistake has to be filled with human life.

Azig was also tempting, so he just rushed for a while and hastily withdrew his troops.

Azig was a little unscrupulous, his face was a little ugly, and the casualties were heavy beyond his expectations. He held a deformed lead bullet in his hand and said, "This is the new gun of the Southern Dynasty?" ”

"Yes." Said the man below.

Azig ignored the blood stains on the deformed buckshot, weighed it, and said, "It seems to be a lot heavier than the previous gun." ”

"It's two dollars heavier." Bolo said.

Azig threw the gun away, snorted coldly, and said, "It's okay, the Southern Dynasty's housekeeping skills have not been lost. Sure enough, it's hard bones. ”

Bolo said, "What does the prince mean? ”

"Drag." Azig said: "I'll see how long they can drag on here, and send someone to go to Ganghwa Island." In the future, a fire will be burned. I'll see if he can sit still. ”

"Wow." Bolo agreed.

Immediately, the Qing army slowly withdrew its troops.

But not far, not close, not far away, not far away, a few miles outside the Xia army's formation, dismounted and rested, far away.

There was a moment of silence on the battlefield.

Zhou Fuchen and Yang Shenzu inspected in front of the battle, it seemed that the wounded, just a confrontation, the Qing army dropped more than 1,000 corpses, and the Xia army also suffered casualties in the small hundred, the Qing army used heavy arrows, shot fast and ruthless and accurate, all the arrows, most of them are around the front door.

The long arrow was driven into the skull, apparently unable to live.

Of course, there were some minor injuries.

Zhou Fuchen and Yang Shenzu looked at these wounded people one by one. This is also a tradition in Zhang Xuan's army, when Zhang Xuan was in the army, he inspected the wounded for a long time, so he went up and down. It has become an unspoken rule in the army.

However, there were not many wounded, and after Zhou Fuchen and Yang Shenzu watched it, seeing that the Qing army had not moved, Zhou Fuchen said: "General Yang is a god, it seems that the Qing army is as General Yang expected." ”

"General Miao." Yang Shenzu said: "This shows that the Qing army is poor in donkey skills. ”

"Yes, but the last one is not comfortable." Zhou Fuchen said.

Yang Shenzu was originally a cavalry general, and his attainments in cavalry were stronger than those in infantry, and now he is allowed to contend with cavalry, which can be said to be the right medicine, and he also knows the means that the Qing court can use.

The cavalry is a clutch soldier, and it is used to charge the formation.

The real superior usage is to use high mechanical power, thousands of miles to converge, thousands of miles to detour, divide and attack, boldly detour, cut off food and grass, and block the battlefield, which is the use of cavalry.

At that time, the cavalry of the Liao army dealt with the Song army, which was a means of lining up without fighting. In this way, the cavalry rested outside the range of the infantry, but the infantry had to maintain a complete formation, because the infantry against the cavalry had to rely on a complete formation, and once the formation was dispersed, it was pursued by the cavalry.

And maintaining a formation also requires physical strength.

The cavalry only had to wait for the foot soldiers to run out of strength before attacking.

It's just that Yang Shenzu foresaw this move in advance, so naturally he would not be defenseless, and after the battle was just over, he had already ordered the soldiers behind him to rest, about an hour, and change the formation before and after.

Of course, the two sides will not just confront each other, and from time to time the Qing army will send some hundred-man squads to rush into the range of the firearms, show off their equestrian skills, and shoot arrows into the dense formation.

At this time, they were extremely scattered, and even two or three people, three or five people moved.

The aim of the fire gun is not good. If you want to hit him, you have to fire a volley, and this is too wasteful of gunpowder.

After all, since this war has dragged on, every bit of baggage is important. Gunpowder is also very valuable.

Seeing this, Yang Shenzu immediately ordered dozens of horsemen behind him to come out of battle.

Yang Shenzu is surrounded by dozens of horses. They were all his personal guards. He has followed him for many years, and his riding and archery skills are no worse than those of Dongyu, and he is not afraid of the Qing court at all in this small-scale battle.

In fact, since ancient times, after the Han Dynasty, after the Han people were accustomed to fighting immediately, the real immediate warriors were still the majority of the Han people, the reason is very simple, in the Tang and Song dynasties, there was a complete theory of martial arts, not to mention whether the theory was correct or not, there was a theory, there was a system, it was better than no theory and no system, and people who purely ate physical fitness.

Even in this era, when the Ming Dynasty was declining, there were strong generals like Cao and Huang Degong in the army, which was no worse than Baturu of the Manchu Qing Dynasty.

In this way, the armies of the two sides faced each other, and only a few people fought under the watchful eyes of countless people, looking like fighting generals.

When the Xia army and the Qing army were facing each other from afar, the news had already been obtained in Seoul.

After all, the Koreans are local natives, even if there are cavalry from the Tuhai faction outside the city to chase them, but they still can't completely cut off internal and external communications, when the news that the Xia army came to rescue Seoul from Ganghwa Island reached Seoul

, the treatment of Zhou Chang by the North Koreans immediately doubled several times.

Zhou Chang opened his eyes and pulled his hand from under the body of Nephrite Fragrance. looked at the beauty in his arms, smiled lightly, and said secretly: "It's no wonder that since the Yuan Dynasty, Goryeo beauties have repeatedly entered the court, and it really tastes very good." ”

Zhou Chang did this, and someone outside the bed heard the movement and said, "My lord, you are awake, Your Majesty has a word, please go over after your adult wakes up." ”

Zhou Chang's bed is said to be a bed, but it hangs down in countless curtains, like a small room, and the people who serve him are also the daughters of North Korean officials at all levels, so they can be called a North Korean noblewoman. After all, it is impossible for a person with status and status to be proficient in Chinese.

At this time, the woman in Zhou Chang's arms also woke up and immediately changed Zhou Chang's clothes.

After a while, a Zhou Chang dressed in white turned around in front of the bronze mirror, feeling that it fit perfectly, and now the texture of the clothes is extremely soft, although he can't say it, but he also knows that this is the finest silk, maybe it was purchased from Jiangnan.

People rely on clothes, horses rely on saddles, Zhou Chang is not bad, but at this moment, he has changed into a brocade clothes, and he is a turbid son. Then I went to meet King Han.

After entering the Korean Imperial Palace, everywhere Zhou Chang passed, officials of all sizes saluted. Don't dare to look at Zhou Chang. Zhou Chang certainly understood that this awe was not for himself, but for the Great Xia behind him, he was just the fox who was a fox and a fake tiger.

But a thought burst out of his heart, and he secretly said: "The eldest husband should be like this." ”

King Han personally came out to greet Zhou Chang, Zhou Chang was not polite, and Han Wang exchanged a few words, after the two sat down, King Han said with a little impatience: "Shangguo has sent troops to the south of Seoul, and is confronting the Qing army, but I don't know that Shangguo sent that general to Korea?" ”

Zhou Chang said: "It is the deputy envoy of the privy council, Zhou Gong and the auxiliary minister. Zhou Chang saw that King Han didn't know Zhou Fuchen, and he thought that North Korea was separated from the war in the south after all, even if there were generals who had heard of it, it was Li Dingguo, Zheng Chenggong and other generals.

Zhou Fuchen is still a step behind.

Zhou Chang explained Zhou Fuchen's resume. King Han's worry became a little stronger in his heart, and he said, "Do you need Xiao Wang's help?" ”

Zhou Chang knew that King Han was worried, but in fact, he was also a little skeptical about whether Zhou Fuchen could defeat Azig. But at this time, he could only cheer up and said: "Please rest assured, Your Highness, since Your Majesty sent Zhou Shumi, you must be completely sure." Your Highness just needs to wait for good news. ”

King Han nodded yes. Zhou Chang saw that he couldn't let go of it in his heart, and sighed in his heart, this battle was about the life and death of Seoul, and he couldn't let it go, but he knew that this matter, whether he was worried or not worried was a result, and there was really nothing Seoul could do. He secretly said in his heart: "I want to find a way to divide his gods, otherwise he will be worried and will do something stupid." ”

Just say something for a while, to divide his gods.
