Chapter 211: A big victory

The description of rockets in the Ming Dynasty's "Wubei Zhi": "Barrel arrows store 32 arrows, called a swarm of bees, which can shoot 300 steps." ”?

"A swarm of bees" is a figurative name, similar to modern multiple rocket launchers, with multiple rockets in one launcher.

The Ming Dynasty's "Wubei Zhi" recorded more than a dozen multiple salvo rockets. Among them, there are 20 "fire dragon arrows" that are fired at a time, "a swarm of bees" that fires 32 at a time, and "100 tigers running arrows" that are fired at a time.

These rockets are packed in a cylinder container, and the medicine wires of each rocket are connected to a bus.

In battle, dozens of barrels to hundreds of barrels are often set up, "the bus is burned, all the arrows are fired at once, and several rockets are loaded in the dragon's belly." If it is like a thunderous blow, don't dare to be its front".

"Ming History Manuscript" contains: "In the eighth year of Tianshun, Yansui General Fang Nengyan Luchuan broke the enemy, and used firearms to say that the Nine Dragons Cylinder, and the first line was nine arrows. ?\u000b "Ming Shilu" records that in the second year of Jianwen, Zhu Di, the king of Yan, and Emperor Jianwen fought in the Baigou River, and used "a swarm of bees".

In the Imjin War, the Ming army also used a large number of rockets, guns, and artillery, inflicting great casualties on the Japanese army.

These rockets were introduced to North Korea, and they were copied by North Korea and named Shenji Arrow.

This time, Wang Yan entered Chu, and what he carried was a swarm of bees that could shoot 300 steps and had 32 rockets, and a hundred tigers who could also shoot 300 steps and had 100 rockets.

At this time, under Geng Zhongming's order, 4,000 green battalions attacked the front of the Ming army, and more than 2,000 green battalion cavalry attacked the left side of the Ming army.

On the battlefield, the 2,000 infantry of the Ming army was stopped by the 4,000 infantry of the Qing army, and the Qing army went out in three ways to attack the Ming army car camp on the hill, and only the two green battalions that had just been defeated were left by Geng Zhongming's side.

At this time, for Geng Zhongming, the key to victory is whether the Eight Banners can break through the car camp on the right and rush into the car formation.

Zhenghuangqi is the trump card in his hand, invincible since entering the customs, Geng Zhongming is full of confidence in breaking through the car formation.

At this time, the elite horses of the Eight Banners galloped, like thunder, and the horse's hooves stepped on the ground, making the earth tremble, and one of the first Qing generals was Geng Zhongming's henchman Chen Shaozong.

This person lives in Melle Zhangjing, has the courage of ten thousand people, and is the first warrior of the Yellow Banner of the Han Army.

At this time, he was holding a pole and eight horse lances, and there were countless yellow-armored banner soldiers behind him, and they came to the wind, so they were not majestic.

The cannonballs of "Boom~Boom~" exploded in the cavalry, causing many yellow-armored cavalry to be stripped off their horses, but the elite Eight Banners were not able to be frightened by artillery.

These sons and daughters of the Han family, after a long time of surrendering to the Qing Dynasty, have slowly become accustomed to the habits of the Manchus, and the methods and ferocity of fighting are moving closer to the barbarians, and they can no longer be called Han people, but should be called banner people.

Since the Manchu Qing Dynasty entered the customs, how many people who surrendered on their knees thought that one day, they would be able to carry the flag and become a member of the Eight Banners, because once they became the Eight Banners, they would enjoy the support of the Qing court from generation to generation, and the descendants would enjoy a "ration" when they were born, and they would live a life of "giving money and grain every month, eating without ploughing, and clothing without weaving", and the treatment was much higher than that of ordinary Manchurians.

The green battalion's will to fight is not good, it should be because they did not die for the Qing court, they were soldiers in the Ming Dynasty to eat food, in the Qing Dynasty also served as soldiers to eat food, but the banner people are different, the Qing court gave them far higher rights than ordinary Han people, they have changed from enslaved people, to the privileged ruling class, so they are absolutely loyal to the Qing court, and their combat power is amazing.

At this time, Geng Zhongming's yellow-armored cavalry, with sharp angles of arrows, attacked and killed the Ming army's car battalion, and the first ones were the elite of the elite, they were not afraid of artillery fire, they were not afraid of birds, and they were extremely brave.

Chen Shaozong carried the horse lance and took the lead, and the Qing cavalry beside him had already fallen four or five hundred people, but he knew that as long as he rushed in front of the Ming army, with the might of the Eight Banner warriors, he would definitely make the Ming army pay ten times the price.

"Two hundred steps, first team, shoot ~"

"Bang~Bang~Bang~"

In the Ming army's formation, when the big and small Francophiles bombarded the rushing Eight Banners, the three teams of birds also held their weapons nervously, watching the scene of thousands of horses galloping in front of them.

A team of birds commanded, in the roar of Qianhu, after firing a shot, immediately retreated, and when the second team stepped forward, before they had time to aim, they heard Qianhu roar again: "One hundred and fifty steps, put ~"

"Bang Bang Bang~"

In the sound of the sound, a large number of yellow-armored cavalry were knocked off their horses, almost after a platoon, they could harvest three or four hundred lives, if you add in the casualties caused by two hundred large and small Francophone machines, the loss of the Eight Banners cavalry has exceeded two percent.

Seeing this, Geng Zhongming, who was under the banner of the king, couldn't help frowning, and his face began to become serious. In the process of the infantry attack, there were no such casualties, and the speed of the cavalry was several times that of the infantry, and the losses were even more than the infantry army.

From the charge to the artillery bombardment, to now by the bird rotation attack, the dead and wounded Eight Banners cavalry at least more than 2,000 people, this is the result he never expected, suddenly made him feel distressed, but also made him a little vigilant, but fortunately, the cavalry has rushed to within 100 steps, as long as the Ming army engaged, he believes that the Eight Banners cavalry, can defeat the Ming army and achieve victory.

At this time, Geng Zhongming instinctively asked his subordinates to quickly integrate the defeated army of the green camp from the new, and ordered them to set up a new formation, just in case, while watching the battlefield with a clairvoyant mirror, wanting to see the Eight Banners rushing into the car formation.

However, before his order to rectify the green camp came out, he saw an incredible scene, countless rockets flew out of the Ming army formation like fire dragons, and just rushed to within fifty paces, thinking that victory was in sight, the Eight Banners cavalry suddenly turned on their backs.

Chen Shaozong, the first warrior of the Yellow Banner, dodged the artillery fire and dodged the round attack of the bird commander, but when he was about to approach the Ming army, he was shot in the face by a rocket and died tragically on the spot.

At this time, the soldiers of the Ming army, carrying a swarm of bees like a long barrel, pushed a hundred tigers to run arrows, and all arrows were fired together, like thunder, so that the people of the Eight Banners were frightened, countless war horses, countless cavalry, all fell to the ground, they were either trampled to death by the war horses behind, or were killed by artillery and birds.

In fact, whether it is a swarm of bees or a hundred tigers rushing arrows, there is no accuracy, and it can't cause any damage, but hundreds of rockets are flying in front of you, scurrying around, but its momentum is really terrifying, making the Qing army's war horses out of control, and immediately let the offensive of the Eight Banners all stagnate, and all of them have become the living handles of the Ming army.

At a distance of fifty paces, the war horse could no longer make an impact, and the Han army's charge with the yellow flag had completely failed.

Seeing this, Geng Zhongming, who was under the Great Xuan, was dripping blood in his heart, and at this moment, on the mountain bag of the Ming army, there was suddenly another trumpet cannon to remember,

He saw that the entire camp was opened, and countless Ming troops rushed out of it, and in the dense forest on the right side of his army, there was actually a group of Ming cavalry, taking advantage of the situation to kill and come straight to his Daxu.
