Chapter 130 They are all good minions of our Qing Dynasty!
"It's finally out!"
Yang Qing said with relief.
In the Wusheng Gate opened in front, a large number of soldiers are pouring out, and on the right side of the city gate where half of the city tower has collapsed, a section of the city wall has also collapsed half of it under the constant bombardment of thirty catties of cannonballs, like a landslide mountain piled up a slope on the side of the moat, which is the harvest of two hundred and forty cannonballs.
But only a third of them hit.
Although the walls have not been completely blasted yet, they are actually almost there.
If you don't consider the casualties of the soldiers, you can already launch a general attack at this time, let the cannon fodder rush up to fill the moat first, regardless of whether he fills the earth or the dead body, in short, the meaning of the cannon fodder is to fill the trench, and if you don't go, you will directly hack to death on the spot. Immediately after that, the death squad heavy armor long knives attacked this slope, and the follow-up soldiers kept squeezing forward, even if they stepped on the corpses piled up on the slope, it was enough to rush to the city wall, once they landed in the city, all that was left was to continue to expand the breakthrough and occupy the area around the city gate, put down the drawbridge and open the city gate, and the cavalry outside the city gate surged in......
As for street fighting, there are generally no such things.
In the era of cold weapons, unless there is a belief in death in the city like Jiangyin, there will be no battles such as street fighting.
Obviously, the people of Wuchang will not have the belief that they will die.
Zuo Liangyu is also very aware of this.
In the end, he still chose to go out of the city to face the battle, otherwise he may not be able to hold out tomorrow, there is no point in defending the city, on the contrary, the decisive battle against the city, which was not cost-effective, has become the most cost-effective for him at this time, saying that he is indeed strategizing, but he really didn't expect Yang Qing to get such a terrifying cannon!
Compared to these, the Hongyi cannon is a small artillery battle!
A big chunk of the city wall collapsed with one shot!
At that time, the Ming army counterattacked Luanzhou Hongyi artillery bombardment for three days, and now it knelt before it reached the city wall in three hours.
Since he came out, it would be simple.
"Array!"
Huang Degong immediately shouted.
Yang Qing didn't care about him, and retreated directly to the dock on the shore.
The matter of commanding the army does not need to be worried about Lord Yang, and the terrain here is not suitable for the heavy cavalry assault he is used to, a small piece of soft wetland two miles wide in total, with the Yangtze River on one side and the sand lake on the other, the infantry can be densely concentrated to the maximum extent in such a battlefield and there are no flanks. And the cavalry not only can't run but also has to withstand the maximum dense firepower, this is a battlefield that purely belongs to the infantry, and the Sand Lake and East Lake in this era are a whole, so there is no possibility for the cavalry to bypass it.
By the time he had bypassed the entire vast lake, the battle had already been over.
Besides, he didn't need to fight in person in such a battle, as a prisoner, what he needed was to watch the battle.
"Sir!"
Zhang Mingzhen welcomed him onto his ship.
"Line up the warships along the river, aim all the ship's guns at the enemy, and let the brothers raise the muzzles of the guns to the maximum, and keep bombarding the enemy's dense areas."
Yang Qing said.
Zhang Mingzhen immediately passed down the order.
The large and small guns of all the naval warships on the river were aimed at the left, and the bombardment quickly began like a competition.
The latter were forming formation at this time, and the shelling from the flanks confused them.
However, these shells can only be harassing, because these river warships do not have heavy artillery, and the thousand-pound Franc machine is already large, and it is already weak after flying a distance of several hundred meters, unless it is difficult to kill people in the middle of the shell.
In the midst of the small shells that kept falling, the 20,000 infantry on the left completed the formation.
Similarly, Huang Degong also completed the formation.
Both sides could not invest too many troops, the terrain limited the scale of the engagement, and Huang Degong could only meet the same number of infantry, so he was anxious to show that he did not let the imperial battalion behind him fight, but his direct Ma Degong and Tian Xiong's two divisions each sent out parts, and Wang Zhiren's imperial battalion continued to protect the artillery position and maintain the artillery bombardment.
"Who's that?"
Yang Qing raised his binoculars and looked at the general commanding on the left and said.
"Li Guoying, Hao Xiaozhong, Xu Yong!"
Zhang Mingzhen looked at the banner and said his name separately.
Of course, it is impossible for Zuo Liangyu to personally go out of the city to command, and Zuo Mengeng will not, in fact, Zuo Liangyu should be watching the battle from an inconspicuous place on the city wall at this time, anyway, it is definitely impossible for him to appear in public, after all, there are still cannons waiting for him.
"These three people are from the fifth battalion of his own soldiers."
Zhang Mingzhen added.
Yang Qing nodded.
One is the governor of Sichuan in the Qing Dynasty, a third-class Ada Hahafan, and the last one is a third-class man who died defending Chenzhou for our Qing Dynasty to resist Yongli, and he is also called Zhongjie! In other words, these are all good minions of our Qing Dynasty! However, Zuo Liangyu's subordinates don't have any real talents, and there is still a Jin Shenghuan, but he is not in Wuchang. There are Ma Jinzhong and Hui Dengxiang left, but these are not his cronies, but the surrendered peasant army, these people are just a simple dependency relationship with him, even if Zuo Mengeng surrendered to the Qing Dynasty in the original history, Ma Jinzhong did not follow but went south with another general, Wang Yuncheng, and defected to He Tengjiao.
The latter is also Zuo Liangyu's cronies.
And he is also a major general, but he has obviously been crushed by the cruel facts in the later stage, although he has always followed Nanming, he is just a walking corpse, and he is ashamed of his loud nickname of the Iron Rider King.
At this time, the battle between the two sides began.
However, this kind of battle has no value of appreciation, after more than ten years of comparison on the battlefield of Guannei, the tactical level of the Ming army can be said to have plummeted, and there is no trace of Qi Jiguang's time, of course, if it were not for this, it would not have been mixed to such a point. The current Ming army has neither tactics nor quality, it is purely a group of peasants with weapons, at most they are familiar with weapons, and the battle is nothing more than to set up a formation with artillery of various calibers in front of the formation, and then the cannon fodder takes knives, spears, birds, guns, etc. to move forward, and after closing the distance, they hold birds, guns, and shoot at each other, and after shooting a few rounds, they start to charge, and finally start a chaotic battle......
It's no wonder that the Eight Banners, which were originally faced with a little less bad in history, immediately collapsed.
Generals also have no real command to speak of.
Even Huang Degong is the same.
He's just rotting a little lighter, and he's behind the battle with his most elite cronies waiting for the cannon fodder to consume the opponent and then assault! It should be said that the current generals of the Ming army have this kind of tactic, and they know that the rabble under them are also worthy of being cannon fodder, so in this case, they will also be used as cannon fodder! Anyway, such a person will make up for it in a blink of an eye.
Qi Jiguang has long since lost the kind of general who studied the allocation of weapons, formulated reasonable tactics, and always strictly maintained the training of the army.
Now it's worse than bad.
The same is true of his opponents.
Behind the front on the left, Li Guoying and the other three also waited for the opportunity with elite cronies.
"Dock!"
Yang Qing said with a gloomy face.
Such a fight made him want to curse.
Zhang Mingzhen was in good spirits and immediately ordered his ship to dock.
The Left Army, of course, could not have been defenseless.
At the same time, the Hanyang Gate opened, and a group of cavalry quickly rushed out of the city, relying on the river embankment to block the direct artillery fire on the river, and quickly lined up outside the Hanyang Gate, waiting for the landing of Yang Qing to counterattack.
At the same time as they completed the formation, Zhang Mingzhen's ship docked, and Yang Qing, who had already grabbed a glider again, rushed forward at full speed on the deck with his twin feet, and the speed of up to 70 kilometers per hour made him rise up before he left the deck, and then was quickly carried to an altitude of more than ten meters. Immediately after that, because of the sudden drop in speed, he quickly glided and fell under the weight drive, but relying on this gliding distance, he still stepped on the river bank steadily, and almost at the moment of landing, the cannon fire on the opposite wall shone brightly.
Four shells hit the embankment in front of him, sending mud and splatters.
Yang Qing began to gallop forward with a glider on his back, and at the moment when he rushed up the river embankment, the cavalry attacking on the right arrived.
At least 500 horsemen, spears on horseback, surging like a torrent of mountains, in the narrow corridor between the river embankment and the city walls.
Yang Qing ran a few steps on the river embankment and jumped up suddenly.
The lift of the glider took him to another upward leap of more than a dozen meters.
The cavalry below swarmed in.
Immediately afterwards, he fell towards the cavalry with a glider, accompanied by an exclamation, at least five spears pierced straight up at the same time, Yang Qing twisted his body in mid-air to avoid these spears, raised his foot and kicked down a cavalryman, and the next moment he took the glider with a wingspan of ten meters above his head, like a big net on the head of the cavalry. A chaotic curse immediately sounded in the latter, and with their cursing Yang Qing fell between the two war horses, and the moment he landed, his hands swept left and right.
The horses on both sides fell with a scream.
And he rushed out of the cover of the glider at maximum speed.
The cavalry behind him was covered by the glider in chaos, and the cavalry who didn't have time to stop behind immediately crashed into the middle of them, and the spectacular scene of people turning over on their backs was immediately staged, Yang Qing ignored the chaos behind him and went straight forward, and in the wild gallop, he raised his hand and hooked an officer next to him, dragged him off the horse and jumped on his horse at the same time, and then clamped the horse's belly between his legs, the war horse galloped forward with anger, Yang Qing spread his hands and instantly cut the bodies of the two cavalrymen.
By this time he was already at the forefront.
Then he turned his horse's head to the right.
At this time, on the battlefield in front of him, a large number of elite infantry and a small number of cavalry were facing him, that was Xu Yong and his more than a thousand subordinates who saw the situation here, and the cavalry that followed him on his right side bypassed the chaos created by the glider, as if it was colliding with the torrent of the reef, and the nearly two thousand enemy troops in both directions were like open iron pincers, with a ferocious momentum clamping towards his little ant, and above his head there were even cannonballs fired from the city wall constantly crossing......
But he laughed.
Then I saw him carry his hands on his shoulders very simply, sit on his war horse with his back to the mighty river, and take a deep breath......
"The reward for killing Xu Yong is 5,000 taels of silver, and the other defectors are 50 taels each!"
Suddenly, like a charter woman, he yelled at the enemy army in front of him. ()
