The wooden bridge was heavy, and there were some wooden shields hanging in front and on both sides, and more than 20 people carried the wooden bridge with great difficulty and slow speed. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info according to Li Zhi's estimate, these wooden bridges can't advance half a meter in a second. It took a stick of incense to walk ten wooden bridges to the front of the trench.

At a distance of two hundred meters, Li Zhi's tiger division began to shoot at the wooden bridge. Six hundred rounds of ammunition were fired at the auxiliaries and followers who had erected the wooden bridge, and hit the wooden shield in front of the wooden bridge.

However, the bullets of the tiger division failed to kill and injure the Qing troops under the wooden bridge.

The wooden shields placed in front of and on both sides of those wooden bridges were thick, enough to be a fist's thick plank. The rifle crackled against the wood, sending sawdust flying, but it did not cause casualties to the auxiliaries behind the wooden shield. After a round of shooting, the Qing army was unharmed.

Seeing this situation, there was a cheer among the Qing army.

Li Zhi's riflemen could not kill the Qing army who built the bridge, so the Qing army could swagger and build the wooden bridge. Then the Qing soldiers in the back came up, and 70,000 people could kill Li Zhi's 10,000 people without leaving a piece of armor. Several Qing soldiers who watched the battle in the back even felt that this wooden shield hanging on the wooden bridge was very good. When fighting Li Zhi in the future, did you let every soldier who charged the battle carry this kind of wooden shield forward? Protective rifles?

Ten wooden bridges slowly walked to the front of the first trench, put the front end of the wooden bridge against this side of the trench, and then pushed the back of the wooden bridge together so that the rear end of the wooden bridge fell over the trench and landed on the other side.

Three wooden bridges were erected on top of the trench, which became a thoroughfare.

As soon as the three wooden bridges were placed, the more than 20 auxiliary soldiers under the three wooden bridges fled back to the wooden shield, and slowly retreated behind the wooden shield. After leaving the wooden bridge, the wooden shield could still be carried by more than 20 Qing soldiers. Although the wooden shield was heavy and made the soldiers walk slowly, under the protection of the wooden shield, Li Zhi's riflemen could only watch the tartars slowly retreat.

The seven wooden bridges behind them passed through three wooden bridges and pressed towards the second trench.

In the formation of the Tiger Ben Division, Lu Hu, the second deputy commander of the Xuanfeng Regiment, commanded one hundred and forty cannons. He squinted at the wooden bridge of the Qing army in front of him and asked, "General, do you want to bombard them with a shotgun?" ”

To deal with this kind of punch-thick wooden armor, you really should use shotguns.

However, Li Zhi was afraid of a shotgun, so he scared the 70,000 Qing troops away.

Li Zhi shook his head and said, "Don't use shotguns first, use solid bullets to repel these seven wooden bridges!" After thinking about it, Li Zhi said again: "Fire the cannon slowly, don't scare them." ”

Lu Hu chanted loudly, and commanded ten artillery pieces to aim at the seven wooden bridges that were slowly advancing.

Only a few loud "boom" and "boom" were heard, and the ten cannons hidden behind the earthen fort opened fire, firing solid bullets towards the seven wooden bridges more than 100 meters away.

The five-pound cannonball whistled through the air and smashed under the wooden bridge. The distance was very close, the hit rate of ten cannons was high, and eight hits. Those one-punch-thick wooden shields could hold out bullets, but in front of the shells, they were like papier-mâché paste, and they were easily torn apart. Solid shells hit the auxiliaries and followers under the wooden bridge, destroying them wherever they went.

Even if the hands and feet were touched by these shells, they would be cut off immediately. If the torso of the body is hit by a cannonball, it will immediately kill you. At least three or four layers of the Qing army's body were pierced, and the shells stopped.

The blood splattered from the wound was like a splash of paint, splashing all over the inside of the wooden bridge in an instant, splashing all the Qing soldiers under the wooden bridge in their faces.

The auxiliaries and followers under the wooden bridge were hit hard, and their morale was sudden, and they wanted to flee if they had followers.

"Wanda", who commanded the battle, saw that the soldiers had lost their morale, and shouted under the wooden bridge: "Rush to the third trench, everyone raises the flag!" ”

Raise the flag! That's the ideal of countless lifelong servants.

If you raise the flag, you will no longer be a clothed Aha, you will be a bannerman with your head held high, you will be able to eat well, you will be able to wear warm clothes, and you will be able to have a woman!

When the attendants heard the words of "Wanda", their morale was greatly boosted, and they returned to their posts with a howl, and walked forward with a strong support on the heavy wooden bridge.

Seven wooden bridges drummed up, and after walking more than twenty meters, the second round of shelling began.

Ten cannons spewed shells at the wooden bridge, and ten shells crashed under the seven wooden bridges.

Eight out of ten shells hit the target, and another scream rang out under the wooden bridge, and dozens of auxiliaries and followers were broken by the shells and fell in pools of blood.

A wooden bridge was hit by three cannons, and the losses were too great, and the Qing soldiers who were still alive could no longer lift the wooden bridge. They abandoned the wooden bridge in front of the trench and slowly retreated with their wooden shields.

Six more wooden bridge cars went to the front of the second trench and lowered two wooden bridges.

Seeing that the six wooden bridges in front of them had successfully reached the second trench, the Qing army applauded in unison. The Outer Mongolian Karaqin Department "Gushan Ezhen" Gurusi Shibu said happily: "General, this wooden bridge can be used!" ”

Abatai and Hauge looked at each other, their eyes full of joy. Since ten wooden bridges could advance to the second trench under the pressure of ten cannons, a thousand wooden bridges could not be defended by one hundred and forty cannons in any case. Hauge's wooden bridge plan is feasible!

Dorgon stroked his long beard and groaned.

On the front of the battlefield, the four wooden bridges, which were still moving forward, came under another round of shelling as they approached between the second and third trenches. The Qing soldiers of the two wooden bridges could not resist, abandoned the wooden bridges, and retreated with wooden shields. Two other wooden bridges were advanced all the way to the edge of the third wooden bridge, and the two wooden bridges were erected on top of the third trench.

After the wooden bridge was erected, the Qing soldiers under the two wooden bridges retreated with wooden shields. They managed to reach the third layer of trenches and were able to raise the flag! The followers of these Qing soldiers were so excited that their faces were bloody.

Seeing this scene, the 70,000 Qing troops in front of the Chinese army thundered with joy - ten wooden bridges can advance to the third layer of trenches, and the 1,000 wooden bridges are on the same page, is it not easy to pass through these trenches? The Qing soldiers seemed to have seen thousands of wooden bridges erected on the trenches with artillery fire, and 70,000 warriors killed the Ming army from the wooden bridges.

Abbatei turned his head happily and said to Dolgon, "Ordered by the general, the wooden bridge can do!" ”

Dolgon didn't know why, but he was unexpectedly a little nervous, he looked at the Ming army in front of him, and he was undecided.

Seeing that his strategy could be used, Haoge was a little proud, and said loudly: "I have ordered the general, let the warriors go, we can defeat these Ming troops in just a stick of incense!" ”

Yibai, the owner of the White Flag of the Eight Banners of Mongolia, said: "I was ordered to be a general, in order to get out of the customs, now I can only build a wooden bridge and rush over!" ”

Even Du Du, who had been a little flustered, didn't say anything more frustrating, and only looked at the wooden bridge erected on the trench in a daze.

Li Zhi's rifle and cannon fired, but the wooden bridge still rushed up, no matter how you look at it, the situation is in favor of the Qing army.

Dolgon gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, Wooden Bridge Charge!" (To be continued.) )
