Huang Taiji naturally refused to give up the opportunity to capture the Ming Emperor Zhu Youxiao alive this time, but he was not a good person, and he did not despise the Ming army that was fighting for the first time on the opposite side, so he did not rashly launch an attack, but also ordered to set up camp and sent a small force to attack and harass, in order to find out the strength of the Ming firearms.

Zhu Youxiao did not relax because of the repulsion of Dai Shan's department, after learning that Dai Shan had retreated and the main forces of the Eight Banners such as Huang Taiji had arrived, he immediately summoned the commanders of each battalion to summarize the encounter just now, and the commanders of each battalion are now also greatly confident, and it is even more difficult to talk about how to deal with more Tartars below.

"When the artillery fire is extended, it is completely possible to draw the Tartars closer and then fight, in addition, it is not necessary to put the artillery on a line, it is best to set up an arc to form a crossfire network, the second and third battalions of the infantry battalion remember to shoot after the first battalion has finished shooting, and form a continuous blow to the Tartars, the cavalry battalion does not have to fight hard with the Tartars, learn to lure the Tartars into our firepower, and then let the infantry battalion annihilate them!"

Zhu Youxiao instructed the commanders in great detail and asked Tang Fusheng, who was in charge of intelligence collection and military discipline enforcement: "What is the dynamics of the division of the Qin King in various places, and where is Lu Xiangsheng, the left attendant of the military department and the governor of Jiliao, located. ”

Tang Fusheng is good at summarizing a continuous and important short sentence from fragmentary intelligence information, and now as soon as Zhu Youxiao asked, he hurriedly spread out a map, picked up a slightly sharp stone on the spot, and went to the location of Tongzhou:

"Lu Shilang ordered Huang Degong to stay in Jizhou and rushed to Tongzhou, and after rushing to Tongzhou, he directly announced martial law, and countless large merchant ships in Tongzhou City that relied on high-ranking officials and nobles were directly intercepted by him, and a lot of grain was also directly transferred to military rations on the grounds that the military department could be unconditionally requisitioned in wartime."

"In addition, as soon as Lu Shilang arrived in Tongzhou, he killed more than a dozen civil and military officials who fled because of abandoning the city, including the general Liu Liangchen and his friend Cui Zongbao of the same year, and the chief military officer Hou Shilu was also arrested by Lu Shilang for disturbing the people and entered Tongzhou City and beat 50 boards, and he still can't get out of bed, so there is a lot less news that Gyeonggi was attacked by the Tartars to break the city and loot, and of course there is a lot less news of officers and soldiers disturbing the people."

"But the bureaucrats and gentry in Tongzhou City are full of complaints about Lu Shilang, and there are threats to write a complaint to the emperor, but your Majesty, you let him prime minister the military and political authorities of the provinces at this time, and now Lu Shilang has more reason to requisition merchants' grain goods for military purposes, and it just so happened that at this time, the Amin Ministry also suddenly appeared under the city of Tongzhou, but because Lu Shilang defended in time, the Amin Ministry had no gain."

"And now Lu Shilang has ordered 10,000 people to march to Changping with Cao Wenzhao, the chief soldier of Taiyuan, Zhou Yuji, has led 8,000 people to Baoan, Zhao Shujiao and Jiang Huang have each led 5,000 elite cavalry to the area of Baiwang Mountain, and Mangui has also taken 3,000 elite cavalry mainly Mongolian people to rush to the capital, and now it is estimated that he will soon enter the boundary of Jizhou."

"A total of more than 30,000 Ming troops, you said that if Huang Taiji would escape, how should he escape."

Zhu Youxiao said with a smile and ordered: "Send someone to Lu Xiangsheng, let him rest assured and boldly go to transfer troops and send generals, if someone dares to disobey the order and take it directly, if someone has a bit of merit, he will not have to report it, if someone really investigates it, I will carry it, and in addition, tell the cabinet that no matter what the officials talk about Lu Xiangsheng, they will not be released." ”

As he spoke, there was already the sound of a horn outside, and the sound of the horn was thick and chilling, which made people feel cold.

This is the sound of the Tartars about to attack, according to Huang Taiji's tactical concept, let the Han cavalry take the lead first, that is, Li Yongfang's cavalry attacked first to attract the Ming army's firepower, but before that, it was Tong Yangxing's artillery battalion that took the lead in attacking.

After Tong Yangxing returned to Nurhachi, he became the forehead of Houjin, and was in charge of Houjin's artillery battalion, and at this time, Huang Taiji also learned from Zhu Youxiao to attack with artillery at the beginning of the war, but Huang Taiji's purpose was to use artillery to destroy Zhu Youxiao's base in the forest first.

But what he didn't know was that at this time, Fu Dahai had quickly ordered the Praetorian Guard artillery battalion to move quickly to a few hundred steps ahead, and soon began to shoot.

"The Tartar cavalry was only afraid of attacking, the second ran back, and the first gun continued to advance."

"Commander Fu, why do you want to let the No. 1 gun move forward, if you can't retreat at that time, it will be too late."

"What are you afraid of, don't you see that this cavalry is as arrogant and rude as it was at the beginning, in that case, the officer must let them learn a lesson, let them know how to maintain the correct attack formation in front of the artillery battalion", Fu Dahai said and shouted again: "Thirty steps forward!" ”

At this time, some Tartar traitor cavalry with strong arms had been able to shoot arrows to the gunners of the artillery battalion of the No. 1 gun, and it can be said that the distance between the two sides had been very close, but Fu Dahai was indifferent and still ordered the No. 1 gun position to continue to advance.

Fortunately, the artillerymen were strictly disciplined, and the Daming Cannon had already added a baffle and a protective soft armor because the artillerymen were all treasures, so they did not collapse, not to mention that there was also the commander Fu Dahai, a guy who was not afraid of death, had been at the forefront until he showed his thumb for a while before he smiled:

"Let Your Majesty see the good show of our artillery battalion."

As he spoke, Fu Dahai immediately ordered: "The muzzle of the cannon is lowered by thirty degrees, the elevation angle is maintained by fifteen minutes, the first team is lined up in front, the second team retreats fifteen steps, the muzzle is raised by twelve degrees, and the third team protects the left and right wings, charges, and ignites!" ”

Fu Dahai gave an order, and the twenty-one Daming No. 1 cannon began to be completely powerful, and countless iron bullets formed a dense rain of bullets and overturned towards Li Yongfang's department, and in an instant, Li Yongfang's department lost countless men and horses, Li Yongfang was busy charging with the elite family members to the death, but he didn't want to rush deeper and more fiercely through the crossfire network.

Many traitor cavalry were forced to turn their horses around and run back, but they happened to collide with the Mongolian cavalry of the two banners that were rushing to kill, just like two high-speed sports cars suddenly collided, and the camp of the Mongolian cavalry was completely disrupted.

Seeing this, Zhu Youxiao couldn't help but smile and said: "What a rich sea, this guy is using my cannon as a gunman, Aobai, you rush up first, take advantage of the instability of the enemy army, kill him for a while, let Huang Taiji see, don't think that sending two Han and Mongolian cavalry can break through my defense line, it's just a fool's dream." ”

"Yes!"

Aobai's cavalry rushed up, but at this time, it was Zhu Youzhen who took the lead, and he screamed and stabbed a shot straight into the chest of a traitor cavalryman, and forced the cavalryman to die with a hole in his chest.

The other Praetorian Guards cavalry did not dare to lag behind, they had fought against the elite white armor soldiers of the Eight Banners of the same generation, they were very confident in dealing with the Han and Mongolian cavalry, and in less than half a minute, Li Yongfang first Mingjin collected the troops, Huang Taiji did not blame Li Yongfang, he did not expect that the artillery of the Ming army would suddenly become so fierce, not only with a longer range, but also with continuous fire.
