Chapter 389: The Real Battle Situation 3

The battle has entered a fierce state.

The Ming army team stranded in the middle of the Ming army battlefield bravely rushed to the enemy's team, but was killed by the enemy's platoon of guns, and there were very few who could rush into the enemy's team and cause damage to the enemy, most of them were the previous cavalry, but the casualties, as if the cavalry were all dead, and the enemy was only a few dozen casualties.

On the battlefield of 50,000 or 60,000 people, dozens of casualties could not even turn over a wave.

The enemy's troops, 20,000 people in addition to the dead and wounded, about a few thousand people fled back, the Ming army's side, the most recovered is the previous five thousand people sent out, these people did not have too much contact with the battle, about 3,000 people fled back, and the other hundreds of people were trapped in the camp that had just been built, and under the urging of the Ming soldiers who fled back, they desperately strengthened the camp.

In the battle of the cavalry on both sides, the cavalry of the Qing army must be more powerful than the cavalry of the Ming army, and the cavalry of the Ming army can no longer cover the Ming soldiers who fled to both sides.

In the end, there were almost 3,000 soldiers of the Ming army, and the people fled into the camp built to Banlazi, and the rest of the more than 3,000 soldiers fled back to this side, all of them fled into the camp here, and some soldiers even fled to the company camp a few miles behind, where it caused chaos.

The team on the side of the Ming army has approached the camp for more than a mile.

The Portuguese troops had already begun to attack the half-pulled camps.

Artillery bombardment, platoon gun fire, those Tessi soldiers wearing armor, rushed into the camp from the gap and fought with the Ming soldiers inside, almost one-sided slaughter.

At this time, the Ming army knew that it was impossible to advance any further, so they stopped at the edge of a mile and began to set up artillery, form a team, raise their guns, and prepare to fight the enemy's army.

Thousands of cavalry ran out of the camp behind the Ming army to reinforce the Ming army, and those soldiers who retreated were also regrouped to guard the camp.

The cannons on the camp here, except for those that weigh thousands of pounds, are still firing, and the others have stopped, because they can't hit that far, and they know that they can only hear the sound.

Finally, the enemy's large force crossed the newly established camp, which was no longer threatening and was dying, and stopped three hundred meters in front of the Ming army's large force, at this time, the Ming army's artillery had been set up and began to bombard their ranks.

I have to say that the support of the Chinese army Longwu Nanming is still very powerful, those cannons are captured by the Qing army, and there are some four-pounder guns, eight-pounder guns, and ten-pounder guns that were not included in the standard artillery ranks eliminated by the Huaxia army before, plus the original artillery of the Ming army, lifting guns, and seriously injuring the troops mainly Indians who have just stabilized.

The Indians also began to cry and cry for their fathers and mothers, and if it weren't for the bullet pressure of those officers of the Tessi coalition army, the Indians would also be in chaos.

The two rounds of artillery inflicted at least a thousand casualties on the Indian ranks, and even the Tessians suffered dozens of casualties, and the ranks became scattered.

At this time, thousands of people ran out from behind the Portuguese positions, most of them soldiers who had fought without casualties in the previous battle, and began to desperately dig trenches in front of the camp, demolish the Ming army camp, or join the slaughter of the remaining Ming army.

When the Ming army fired the third round of artillery, the Portuguese artillery also opened fire.

Both sides suffered heavy casualties and demoralized.

The Portuguese also used trebuchets to smash the Ming army, and the Ming army used the primitive weapon of bed crossbows to shoot at the Indians, and the cavalry of both sides fought fiercely on both sides.

Both sides now have more than 10,000 casualties.

The Ming army was more miserable, probably around 15,000 men, and lost much more supplies and equipment than the Portuguese.

A war waged for one side for the sake of the territory, the other side for the sake of commercial interests, has killed almost 100,000 people.

The blood of the people of the Ming Dynasty was the most flowing, followed by the blood of the indigenous people of Southeast Asia around the Ming Dynasty, and the Taixi people, these Westerners had at most thousands of casualties.

This is the estimated statistics that the chattering Li Guangdi told Zhang Qiang.

"I'll let them pay back a hundredfold and pay it back in other ways." Zhang Qiang said.

When the Portuguese began to counterattack, it was shown that the Portuguese were very powerful, and the obedient Indian army they trained played discipline and salvo fire very slippery, but the Ming army was not so tough, a round of gun shooting, hundreds of people fell, and the ranks were in chaos, even those soldiers who insisted on shooting did not cause much damage to the enemy.

In exchange for hundreds of casualties, dozens of the enemy were killed, all of whom were Indian grey cattle, and some Vietnamese, and one or two Englishmen were killed and a few wounded, and the rest of the ranks saw almost no dead from other countries.

Two rounds of shooting, the enemy killed more than 100 people, more than 1,000 people were killed and wounded here, and the officers couldn't hold it down, and they led their troops to retreat, at this time the Portuguese team was still not chaotic, and continued to shoot, shoot, reload, and shoot again with a blank face and not afraid of casualties.

It's like a one-sided slaughter.

Three hundred, the enemy died three hundred, the ranks of the Ming army completely collapsed, and finally the Ming army fired a round of artillery, and it was raided by the Spanish heavy cavalry.

The artillerymen fled one after another, and at this time, the Indians began to form a group, and so many samurai in heavy armor poured out from behind, including Gurkhas, Japanese ronin, and Portuguese, the Portuguese were lancers and halberd warriors, rushing into the ranks of the Ming army and slaughtering.

The Ming army was defeated and fled one after another.

The Ming army that killed the most enemies was the Ming cavalry, who killed a lot of escaped Portuguese mercenaries, as well as Indians, as well as Qing cavalry, piggybacking on a few Spanish heavy cavalry, and Portuguese lancers.

Then they also collapsed and also began to run away.

On the battlefield three or four miles away and five or six miles wide, the Ming soldiers who fled were chased and killed by the enemy, and fled all the way to the camp here.

The cannons on the camp did not dare to open fire, and only a few archers dared to kill the enemy's cavalry that was pursuing too quickly, but the results were few.

At this time, the Portuguese mercenaries from various countries who fled back, as well as the Ming people who had organized themselves, came out of the rear county town one after another, and tens of thousands of people ran over the mountains and fields to pursue the Ming army all over the mountains.

Fighting has spread from the front line to the rear of the camp complex.

The combined forces of the Portuguese were completed, and many people took over the artillery left behind by the Ming army, dragging them to continue to follow the group.

The rear support troops who ran over joined the formation of the large army, and the large army that had just lost immediately recovered its previous strength, and exceeded, about 20,000 people, moving slowly, towards the camp to kill, and cleaning up the Ming soldiers who were dazed on the road.

Unstoppable.

Li Guangdi let out a long sigh, "It seems that the Portuguese want to defeat our troops on the front line in one fell swoop today." Now the morale of the whole army is low, although there are still 50,000 people, but the elite is only five or six thousand, it is very likely that they will be broken at once, and then we can only retreat to the outside of Jiuxing County to resist the enemy. ”

Zhang Qiang said calmly: "Not necessarily, with us, they have to retreat to the first trench." Let the Huaxia army come over to clean them up another day. However, after these battles, your army is all veterans, and if it can be sorted out and trained by the Huaxia army, then they will not have the strength to fight the Portuguese, or even defeat them. ”

Li Guangdi looked at this young but very calm governor of the Huaxia Army in surprise, the Ming man who betrayed the Ming Dynasty, "Can this really be the case?" ”
