Guns rang out at the foot of the coffin hill. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

Starting from both sides, Shi Liang immediately launched a fierce attack, a bend and a fork in the mountain The resistance of the Fu Han army was not very strong, but the performance of the Qing army was also very average, that is, a small number of Fu Han troops in front of them retreated back with more people and guns. Gao Qiao left the large army at the foot of the coffin mountain, Shi Liang used the horse team in his hand to suppress the formation, and the remaining five or six hundred Jingzhou banner soldiers were piled up on the battlefield by him, which can be said to be desperate.

However, at the last pass of Coffin Mountain, the performance of the Fu Han Army, which behaved generally at a bend and fork, was as if it had been reborn, and the main battalion was as powerful as ever, and even the two non-main battalion leaders behaved like wolves and tigers.

Shi Liang successively took the flag soldiers and the Jingzhou Green Battalion as the main force, and launched a charge on the front of the Fu Han Army, as a result, although there were not many muskets of the Fu Han Army, and not all the flintlock guns, but the platoon guns were neatly played, and there were a lot of tiger squat cannons and mortar cannons on the formation, but Shi Liang did not have a decent cannon in his hand, only a few cupola cannons and sub-mother cannons, and then there were large guns.

The firing range of the cupola cannon is short, and the sub-mother cannon and the large lifting gun can hit the front of the Fu Han army, but the accuracy is not spectra, and the snipers of the Fu Han army are specially hunting and killing the sub-mother gunner and the large gunner.

In the absence of trenches, no breastwork, that is, on the battlefield facing each other, the effect of the Qing army's two attacks was very poor, and the grenadiers of the Fu Han army did not even have a chance to come out to show off, and the Qing soldiers were defeated. This was the third time that the militia group in western Hubei was the main force to charge, but the Fu Han army only fired a few guns and cannons, and those militia retreated in disgrace.

The embarrassment of reality made Shi Liang want to go crazy! Shi Liang couldn't wait to cut Wang Lei with one sword! Even if he is the brother-in-law of the prefect of Yichang? Thanks to himself, he still raised him to a thousand people, led more than 1,000 people to attack, killed and wounded forty or fifty people, and did not touch an inch of land under the enemy's feet, what is the use of this waste for him?

"Lord Toto! The firearms of the rebels are really ...... It's so sharp! The brothers really can't kill them! Wang Lei, who hadn't realized that Shi Liang's anger value had reached a critical point, said bitterly, when the previous two attacks failed, he saw that the green battalion and the flag soldiers said the same. He is now following the script.

"Those who are greedy for life and afraid of death, you are still a thousand people! Why did Lao Tzu's subordinates come out of your waste? Come on, drag him out for me, cut him down! Shi Liang roared, his face full of sinister smiles, and his eyes stared at Wang Lei, who was rapidly changing color on his face like a knife.

Wang Lei's face turned pale suddenly, Shi Liang's appearance was not joking, "My lord! My lord! Spare your life......"

"Your Excellency. Give the small one another chance, give the small one another chance, and the small one will definitely take the coffin mountain! Be sure to take it! Wang Lei was dragged outside by Shi Liang's personal soldiers, and he was so frightened that he begged hoarsely.

The anger was vented, Shi Liang's mind calmed down a little, Wang Lei still couldn't kill himself, not to mention that he was the brother-in-law of the Yichang prefect, just his current identity, the battalion commander of the Yichang militia group, he couldn't kill it lightly. When the battle is about to go, it is nothing to kill the capital of the green battalion, but the militia is different. If you kill Wang Lei yourself, the Yichang militia will be in chaos on the spot, and the militia in Jingzhou and Jingmen will also be shaken when they know about it. "Bring him back."

"My lord! Give the little one another chance! The little ones will definitely charge ahead! If you don't take down the coffin, you vow not to see your lord. "Walking around before the ghost gate closes, it's a heart-pounding feeling. Wang Lei really felt Shi Liang's killing intent just now, his pants were wet, and everyone was scared to pee. Now that he has been brought back, he is afraid of angering Shi Liang again, and he is just begging for mercy.

"For the sake of Lord Zhao, this official will give you another chance, and you will bring your people to attack me again now! If you retreat with one more touch......" Shi Liang's eyes were red, and a pair of eyes stared at Wang Lei. "You know what will happen......"

The Fu Han army actually took advantage of the rainy night to get behind him, Shi Liang didn't think that they were disgusted with the heat, and it was cool in the heavy rain. He is now carrying a string, and he doesn't know when the Jingmen and Jingzhou regiments, which were left behind by him, will send an urgent report - the Fu Han army is coming......

"Don't hurry up and get ready." Shi Liangcai didn't care what Wang Lei's mood was at the moment, and waved his hand to him angrily.

"Rush, ......, kill, ......"

"Boom, boom, boom......"

"Bang Bang Bang ......"

The sound of fighting and gunfire was loud at the foot of the coffin mountain until more than half of the hour, when Shi Liang's Jingzhou and Jingmen militias behind him were defeated by the large army of the Fu Han army that pressed over, and fled to the bottom of the coffin mountain, Gao Qiao's troops also defeated Shi Liang's army.

The good news passed to Chen Ming at 11:15, when Chen Ming was playing with his pocket watch, a beautifully made enamel pearl pocket watch, which was the trophy of the Fu Han army when it entered the Liangjiang Governor's Mansion in Nanjing, the yellow enamel pocket watch with gold shell inlaid beads, only one inch in diameter, three points thick, was made by the British, the yellow enamel cover, the outer edge was inlaid with a circle of white pearls, and a sapphire was inlaid in the middle, which was exquisite and gorgeous. The colorful enamel pocket watch depicts a group of lovers, with beautiful maids and innocent children not far away, and the surrounding flowers are colorful and colorful.

I heard that this pocket watch was Gao Jin's favorite thing, and it was given to him by Qianlong. Chen Ming can't deny that this pocket watch is really beautiful, but he prefers to paint the shell of landscape painting. Although he still often plays with this pocket watch.

Shi Liang really did not live and die with his soldiers, and at the last moment he ran out of the battlefield with three or four hundred and eight banner horses, and the rest of the Qing army, regardless of the Han and green battalions, were all captured.

When the army was encircled, the militia groups in western Hubei and the green camp in Jingzhou all chose to surrender. Only the Jingzhou banner soldiers who were abandoned on the battlefield by Shi Liang chose to resist firmly. Five or six hundred people were taken prisoner, only about 300 were in their early days, and most of them were Han army bannermen and new bannermen from Shaanxi.

"Pressing these prisoners to the position, those dead flag soldiers, stripped off their armor and put them on for the people to wear. No, didn't we have a lot of cotton armor captured in our army? "The soldiers of the Fu Han Army were reluctant to wear him, and it was a pity to destroy it, so Chen Ming was all thrown into the logistics." Select a few hundred collars and add them together, so that the defenders of Wuchang can take a good look......"

Chen Ming didn't think it would be of much use to do this, but it could always suppress the morale of the Qing army. Moreover, while Chen Qi delivered good news, he also put forward a request to take the opportunity to seize Hongshan. You must know that the trenches in the Hongshan position are now full of water, and on March days, if people are soaked in water for a long time, no one can withstand it. He felt that this was a good opportunity to take this place. Besides, the rain in the sky has not yet dispersed, according to the eyes of the local elderly, this rain is still falling, so take advantage of the rain and pounce on the Twin Peaks Mountain. With the opening of Shuangfeng Mountain, the artillery of the Fu Han army can directly bombard Wuchang City.

"Bring me the map." Chen Ming was silent for a while, and said to Liu Wu. He put down Chen Qi's letter and paced small steps in the headquarters, his mind spinning rapidly.

Take the Hongshan position! If there is still this heavy rain, then it is indeed very important to take Hongshan, and then take advantage of the heavy rain to take Shuangfeng Mountain as Chen Qi said, and when the sun comes out again, the cannons of the Fu Han army can be set up on Shuangfeng Mountain to bombard Wuchang City. But it's just an assumption, who knows if this rain will follow? Charging at the Qing positions on a battlefield that had just rained heavily and was full of stagnant water and silt was not a wonderful decision.

Chen Qi sent to the general headquarters also Gao Qiao's battle report, the combat attrition of other troops was not much, after finding that the back road was blocked by the Fu Han army, the Qing army's green battalion and militia will to fight was significantly weakened, and although the fighting will of the Eight Banners soldiers was firmer, this did not mean that their combat effectiveness became stronger. However, Gao Qiao's department also lost hundreds of soldiers because of cold, fever, and diarrhea [drinking cold water]. Such heavy rain really had a big impact on the army.

The troops of the Qing army in Wuchang City, of course, had a good time, but what about Hongshan? The soldiers had spent the night in the trenches before. The tents and houses erected before the trenches had already been flattened by the artillery of the Fu Han army. As far as last night's heavy rain is concerned, the conditions of the Qing army are not necessarily as good as those of the Han army. The latter still have tents to live in, and some of them even live in empty houses in the surrounding villages. Even if a hut could fit one or twenty people, it would be much more comfortable than hiding in the rain in the trenches.

"Governor Dadu, I have already asked the reconnaissance troops, and since dawn today, the Qing army has not mobilized troops to change the ......"

A map of the Wuchang region has been spread out on the table, and Chen Ming has a few charcoal pencils on his right hand, as well as a ruler, this map is specially used by him to ponder the battle situation, and the flowers on it are one by one, and many numbers are marked.

The distance from the Hongshan position to Shuangfeng Mountain, and the distance from the artillery position of the Fu Han Army to Hongshan, Chen Ming has already memorized many figures, but he still has to calculate it again before making a decision.

"Order the artillery to advance two miles, disperse the artillery, add artillery, and bombard the Shuangfeng Mountain, Snake Mountain, ......"

The artillery on Shuangfeng Mountain can be directly aimed at Wuchang City, and it can also be directly aimed at the Hongshan position, Chen Ming is already determined to take Hongshan, then he has to consider the threat of the Qing army artillery on Shuangfeng Mountain, including the artillery on Snake Mountain, to the Fu Han army......
