West bank of the Yi River.

"What the hell is this!"

The nephew of the wild boar skin, who was blue flag Manchuria Gushan Bahana, looked at the four car cities in front of him in amazement.

Because of his age, he did not catch up with the battle of the Hunhe River, and after the final Qi army was wiped out on the battlefield, although the Ming army still used weapons such as partial vans to fight, but without the organization and training of the Qi army, it was impossible to reproduce the demeanor of the car battalion. In the later period, as the Liaodong battlefield began to be worse, when the generation of Jiannu of Bahana joined the battlefield, the Ming army was already on the verge of collapse, not to mention the formation of a car city to resist them, even the infantry formation to meet them was rare.

Field battles are almost gone.

It's nothing more than a defensive battle for the fortress.

At this moment, the four-seater car city that suddenly appeared on the bank of the Yi River was the first time Bahana had seen it.

"This is the Beijing camp, the new army trained by Yang Qing in the southern capital, you can be careful, this thing is extremely difficult to break, Yuan Zong's several times the strength has not been able to open the two car cities, this kind of quadripartite array is a whole army in the Beijing camp, and it is almost invulnerable."

The general dressed in the Ming army beside him said.

This is Bai Yongfu's subordinates stationed in Juzhou, although he has not seen the Beijing camp fighting, but he still understands this army, he has 10,000 subordinates, plus 20,000 green battalions that have been incorporated into the armed Shandong gentry, and followed the 20,000 Qing troops of Bahana to form a rescue army to go south. At this time, Bai Yongfu's 40,000 men were trapped in the southern city of Yizhou, where they could even hear the faint sound of artillery there, but if they wanted to reach Yizhou, they had to defeat the Fourth Army of Beijing. This elite army that landed from Haizhou laid out four car cities on the bank of the Yi River, which together formed a huge quadrangular formation, cutting off the road to the south.

"Hmph, it's just the Ming Army!"

Bahana said disdainfully.

"The cavalry is flanking back, the infantry is attacking the front, the artillery is bombarding forward, and the car city is not a real city, and your men will pull out the horses."

He went on to say.

The general looked at him sadly.

"You want to disobey?"

Bahana shouted with a glare.

The general drew his sword helplessly, and looked at the men beside him, who gestured with his gaze, and then turned his gaze to the newly incorporated green battalions, the general nodded with satisfaction, and then with the wave of the flag, under the urging of the whips of the officers, the hapless green battalions were driven out in a chaotic array to attack, or rather, when cannon fodder consumed the firepower of the Ming army.

Bahana doesn't care about that.

As long as he has someone as cannon fodder, he can just pull out the rejection horses that get in the way, and it doesn't matter who the cannon fodder is.

His artillery team stepped forward first.

This is from Eight Banners Korea, in fact, nearly half of his 20,000 people are Eight Banners Korea, these guys are far away from home, they don't even understand the language here, and they are still very brave in battle, but they don't have heavy artillery such as Hongyi cannons, just light artillery such as Furlong machines carried in the field.

At the same time as the Green Battalion was in chaos, these cannons were pushed out of the crowd and pushed less than a hundred feet away from the Che Battalion, and they could not be expected to have a range of only a few hundred meters to threaten the Checheng from a longer distance.

Behind the green battalion were the Eight Banners heavy infantry, and the shield carts were also densely packed into a wall, and the heavy infantry behind the shield carts, archers, and even bird gunners were waiting for them. These are the veterans of the Eight Banners, with the Eight Banners of Manchuria and the Han Army, and the mixed Eight Banners of Korea, at this time the main combat force of the Eight Banners is a mixed infantry like them, and they have to wait for the cannon fodder to consume the firepower of the Ming army. Behind the heavy infantry were the elite cavalry of the Eight Banners of Manchuria ready to strike a fatal blow after the infantry broke the formation, while the cavalry of the Eight Banners of Mongolia on both flanks was preparing to attack the rear of the Ming army, and they were not used to charge the formation, but to attack from a distance with cavalry and fire.

They have used this tactic for many years, and almost never failed, the dead soldiers in the front, the main soldiers in the rear, the light cavalry on the two wings, and the heavy cavalry for the final blow.

It's like Bahana said.

The Ming army is only.

They've beaten countless times.

For more than 20 years, they had already developed a deep-seated contempt for the Ming army.

"Fire!"

In the middle of the Ming army's formation, Wu Guogui looked at the familiar enemies in the distance and said with a hint of memory.

As the order of him, the general of the Guanning army, was issued, the signal soldier beside him waved the flag, the brigade commander in the four large phalanxes waved the command flag beside him, and a mountain splitting cannon concentrated in the front spewed flames. One after another, three-pound solid bullets roared out of the high-quality bronze cannon chamber, and instantly crashed into the Qing artillery team with the accuracy given by the thirty-fold diameter barrel.

A Qing artillery was hit at once.

The wooden artillery carriage was scattered, the heavy cannon collapsed, and the surrounding gunners screamed in the splintered wood, but the artillery of the Eight Banners Korea continued to move forward tremblingly in the splash of earth from the impact of the shells. Then the next moment, the mortar shells above their heads also fell, although the accuracy of this thing was poor, but those shells that either hit the ground and bounced or exploded directly in the air made the artillery of the Eight Banners Korea confused. The first time they encountered the flowering shells, they even gave up the cannon they were pushing and fled, and their escape also caused chaos among the cannon fodder in those arrays, especially when the flowering shells also exploded among them.

"Attack!"

Bahana roared angrily.

Obviously, there is still a certain gap between these wastes and his imaginary combat effectiveness, and if they continue to do this, they will lose their morale.

The Eight Banners Heavy Infantry immediately moved forward.

Under the persecution of those shield cars, the cannon fodder moved forward in confusion, and soon they began to run wildly with various weapons in their hearts, and the Ming army's mountain splitting cannon continued to bombard them, and the solid bullets hit a splash of flesh and blood in the dense crowd, but the persecution of the Qing army behind them made the cannon fodder still have to continue to run forward.

At the same time, the archers of the Eight Banners on both wings attacked and quickly cut to the two wings of the Ming formation.

They were not shelled.

Galloping on their horses, the archers of the Eight Banners of Mongolia, like their ancestors, quickly closed the distance to Checheng, the bows and arrows in their hands were already hungry and thirsty, just like their ancestors trampled on this land three hundred years ago, they also wanted to use their bows and arrows to prove that their time was not over.

However......

The car city suddenly turned into an erupting volcano.

In an instant, all firearms erupted in flames, and in a storm of bullets and shotguns, the Mongol warriors fell like drops of water on a small tree that had been kicked after the rain, and then were trampled under the hooves of the horses galloping behind them. The living was so frightened that he hurriedly turned away, but at this time the distance was too close, and it was not so easy to run. Accompanied by the gunner on the side van car quickly raised a cartridge, followed by a new one, the large shotgun was sprayed in the smoke and fire that sprayed at the front and rear at the same time, and swept the Mongolian cavalry a hundred meters away. And when the latter fell again in confusion, the loaded guns and bird guns also spewed flames, and more Mongol cavalry fell with continuous gun fire, telling them with their dead bodies that their time was over.

It was at this time that the cannon fodder finally ushered in the same blazing firepower.

Then they scattered in an instant.

These green battalions were all incorporated by the gentry armed forces from all over the country, they were a real rabble, not even as good as those miscellaneous armies, and they could run within 100 meters of the shells to the Qing army behind, and now suddenly the firepower in the front increased tenfold, and the bullets and shotguns hit the front in pieces......

Still not running?

If you don't run, you're a fool!

They crowded each other and fled in both directions.

Then the Eight Banners Heavy Infantry behind them faced the Ming fire......

"All for one!"

Wu Guogui said.

He was extremely familiar with the Qing army.

As his order was issued, all the frontal furlong machines and guns were replaced with single-headed shells, plus those mountain splitting guns, and the dense artillery fire instantly smashed towards the shield carts of the Qing army. The triple heavy shield of iron sheet, cowhide, and wooden plank could not block three catties of solid bullets, could not block one pound of solid bullets of Franc Ji, and could not block seven taels of solid bullets that raised the gun.

But they are not cannon fodder after all.

These guys, who have been rampaging the Eastern battlefield for decades, are pushing shield carts forward and then falling down again amid the roar of cannonballs.

This scene made Bahana's heart bleed.

But he had to fight.

Because Dolgon's goal was Xuzhou, only by taking Xuzhou could the security of the north be ensured, otherwise the Ming army, which had advanced all the way to Dongping, would threaten Beijing at any time. Along the canal north, the Ming army could kill the city of Beijing in less than half a month, and even if Dolgon controlled Beizhili, there was no safety at all, and Xu Da smashed the capital in this way.

Fortunately, the Eight Banners Heavy Infantry finally rushed to the front of the horse rejection belt.

And then......

They are even more tragic.

A strong bow and a heavy arrow five steps Yan shot didn't work.

The protective wall of the car city blocked all the means of attack they could use, and even their bird guns could not penetrate this wall, although the Ming army's bird guns could not penetrate their shield cars, but the problem was that the Ming army's furlong machine and carrying guns could easily do it, and the two sides were separated by a short exchange of fire against the horses, so that the losses of the Eight Banners heavy infantry rose sharply.

And then they finally couldn't take it anymore.

The brave Eight Banners heavy infantry rushed out of the shield cart, moved away from the horse, and began to charge hard in the face of the opposite fire, but the result of the hard charge was that the birds on the opposite side also joined in the killing of them, and when the corpses scattered all over the ground finally approached the car city, grenades fell from the sky again. The dense explosion of fire made the Qing army rushing to Checheng scream in chaos, and the Ming soldiers who were not afraid of being blown up by the grenades they threw behind the wall continued to shoot the chaotic Qing army at close range with various firearms and even bows and arrows.

The rout of the latter finally began.

Immediately after the vans quickly separated, the cavalry that had been on standby in the car city for a long time rushed out, crashed into the fleeing Qing army, nailed them to the ground with spears, and trampled their corpses with the galloping hooves of their horses......
