After the two thousand green battalion soldiers arrived, they were all sent by Bolhui to cut down trees and build a fortress to build equipment. At the end of the valley, a spacious place was found to camp against the mountains, and there was a stream in front of the camp, which could not only prevent the Ming army from using fire, but also ensure the supply of water.

Bolhui had to be careful, and now he can't afford to lose.

However, the Ming army did not go out of the village to attack and disturb, and the night passed without incident. In the afternoon of the next day, Zu Kefa led the rest of the green battalion to arrive, and after the Qing army joined forces, there were more than 5,000 people and horses, and the troops were strong.

The Green Battalion was the most basic and main regular army of the Qing Dynasty.

The population base of the Manchu Qing Dynasty was too small, the total number of soldiers of the Eight Banners was only about 100,000, plus the troops of Kong Youde, Wu Sangui and others, the core strength was only more than 200,000, and the troops were insufficient after entering the customs, so they vigorously developed the green battalion.

The military system of the Green Battalion imitated the suppression system of the Ming Army, and the officers were also set up according to a series of official positions such as general soldier, deputy general, staff general, guerrilla, etc., and the soldiers at the lowest level were divided into horsemen, warriors and defenders. (The green battalion guards, who are generally responsible for escorting baggage and building camps, are also the reserve of the soldiers, and the main difference between them and the auxiliaries is that the guards are also military ranks, similar to the privates and inferior soldiers in later generations.) ）

Zukefa's 4,000 green battalion soldiers included 3,000 horsemen, warriors, and 1,000 unarmored guards.

After seeing the injuries of those Eight Banner soldiers, Zu Kefa's body trembled, and he clamped his legs and twisted slightly...... It's so miserable, all of them are injured in critical parts, and they look like a mess.

"You know what's this?"

Bol Hui handed him two relatively complete shells, which were put together in a thin bamboo tube, and Zu Kefa took them with both hands and looked at them carefully, and then sent them to his nose to smell them.

"Hiss......" he gasped: "I didn't expect it, this thing can really be made!" ”

"You've seen it before?" Bolhui's eyes flashed.

"Nope. The last general has never seen a real thing before, but he has seen text and illustrations in "Wubei Zhi", this thing is called the earth-shaking thunder, and it is the most powerful to detonate it with gunpowder! Zu Kefa said: "The Southern Dynasty (Daming) Military Department also tried to produce this thing, but it has not been effective, and it has not been successful......

"I don't care about that." Bo Erhui was not interested in Da Ming's military book, and interrupted him with a wave of his hand: "Let me ask you, how did this earth-shattering thunder break?" ”

"This, this thing fell to the ground and exploded, injuring people's lower body and legs. When the lower body is heavily armored...... "Zu Kefa came up with a useless idea, whether it is iron armor or cotton armor, the lower body is only two scarbs in front and back to protect the vital points for ease of movement, but the two legs are strong and exposed.

"Very good. You have a way to crack it, and this camp will be handed over to you. Bolhui said in an accentuated tone: "Just build this camp." Reward you with half a 'future'! ”

The so-called "future". It is a way to remember merit in the Qing army, and it is very rare, half of the future, can be exchanged for the title of a Manchu nobleman, Bo Erhui took out this half of the "future", that is, let Zu Kefa work hard at all costs......

……

Since the master has given the order. Zukefa fought hard.

The military law team was in the rear, the Eight Banners were responsible for the bow and arrow cover, and the Green Battalion began to charge again and again.

The defenders went up first, two hundred at a time. Three hundred, five hundred...... After being beaten down and regrouped, and then rushed up to 500 people, the artillery in front of the camp of the Ming army flew horizontally, the corpses were accumulated, the bows and arrows on both sides, the fire guns were continuous, the "General Lei" of the Ming army repeatedly performed miraculous feats, from the afternoon to the evening, the green battalion soldiers suffered heavy casualties, and there was no progress.

Keep up the night fight!

In front of the eight-foot-high camp wall, the corpses were stacked more than a foot high, and the wounded defenders were forced to charge again by the broadswords of the military law team as long as they could move, to consume the ammunition of the Ming army.

After Zuihou rushed forward with a wave of 300 defenders, he was beaten by the Ming army for a while, and without waiting for Mingjin, he collapsed and fled on his own. Zu Kefa's military law team was a little unbearable, hesitated and did not stop it, but suddenly rushed up behind him a team of Eight Banner cavalry, wielding tiger tooth knives indiscriminately, slashing all the routed soldiers and military law team on the spot.

Another wave of charges began, and the corners of Zukefa's mouth twitched imperceptibly, this time with two hundred soldiers, all of whom were his elite troops.

When the two hundred soldiers retreated, there were less than a hundred left, and Zukefa finally couldn't help it.

"Qi Qi Zhangjing, the soldiers have been fighting for a long time, isn't it time to rest?"

"Take turns to rest, never stop!" With a fierce expression on his face, he had already made up his mind that he was going to fight a war of attrition and drag the Ming army to death with continuous attacks...... No matter how powerful your earth-shaking thunder is, there will always be a time when it will run out!

Above and below the camp wall, the torches of the pine were lit until dawn, and the two armies fought hard all night, gradually showing fatigue, whether it was the Ming army or the Qing army, bows, arrows, lead and earth bombs were consumed a lot, and the frequency was getting lower and lower.

However, the Qing army won because there were many people, and one wave was defeated, and it was immediately replaced by another wave, and it always maintained a ferocious offensive...... Gradually, more and more ladders were set up on the camp wall, and more and more green battalion soldiers climbed towards the camp wall, and finally, the body of the first green battalion soldier leaned into the battlement of the female wall!

"Broken village! Broken village! ”

The morale of the Green Battalion was greatly boosted and cheered in unison, and more soldiers scrambled to climb towards the camp wall and ascend to the battlement. But suddenly, there was a scream on the camp wall, and the green battalion soldiers who rushed up fell down one after another!

Behind the women's wall, there are rows of soldiers of the Gongyi battalion, lined up in a neat spear array, the spears are like a forest, stretching and stretching and stabbing non-stop, stabbing the green battalion soldiers who dare to take the lead one by one down the camp wall.

Their formation was very strange, except for the front row of soldiers, the back rows were all leaning over, stabbing in the same direction to the left, the spear formation was like a suddenly angry porcupine, swelling out countless barbs in front of it, occupying all the space above the camp wall, and the green battalion soldiers with short weapons could not parry, nor could they find any place to stay.

Spear Left Stab!

This is Liu Tichun's hard thinking for many days, the improvement method proposed for the spear formation, the spear stab of the Gongyi battalion is very mature, he repeatedly shiyan feels that it is not easy to improve, and after going around in a big circle, he finally thought of the spear left stab.

The biggest advantage of the left stab of the spear is that it ensures the aggressiveness of the soldiers in the back row, without the cover of the soldiers in the front row, they can continuously shoot and assassinate, stab the adjacent enemy diagonally to the left, and hand over the enemy in the front row to their companions, and the frequency and power of the attack are multiplied.

The Green Battalion soldiers hurriedly climbed the camp wall, unable to form a battle and were all stabbed down in the blink of an eye. (To be continued......)
