When the Ming army led the army out of the city and captured the military capital peak, Han Dai knew that it was over, and the previous speculation and previous intelligence were all problematic.

If there are really only 5,000 Ming troops in the capital, how dare the other party take the initiative to attack when the army is overstretched?

Even if the opponent's sword is sideways and wants to make a surprise attack to buy himself a respite, it will only be a blow and leave at most, and it is impossible to continue to leave the troops outside the pass.

After all, it is not such a practice to set up a suspicious formation, the Russian-Manchurian coalition army has invested 100,000 troops, and it is absolutely impossible to retreat so easily, and you only need to test it a little to know the reality of the other party.

What is the Jundu Peak, how can the Russian-Manchurian coalition army not know that once the Ming army gains a firm foothold here, the pressure on Juyongguan will be greatly reduced.

Whether it is for the attacker or the defender, Jundu Peak is a battleground, and the Ming army is not sure enough, so it will easily go out of the city and die?

"General Yerumuf, it's all at this time, what's the point of saying this? Could it be that we still have a way out? Moreover, as the deputy capital commander of the Han Dynasty said, if the Ming army really had enough troops, it should have pursued it a long time ago. Therefore, although the current situation seems to be unfavorable to us, it is not without a chance to fight, but if you and I continue to complain to each other like this and do not take measures, there will really be no chance. Prince Zheng Zilharang finally stood up and took a stand.

He couldn't help but take a stand, and looking at the appearance of the Tsarist Russians, it seemed that they wanted to withdraw their troops, and even give up the entire Mongolian region, and Zilharang would never allow this situation to occur.

Although the Russians were greedy for land, they also knew how to advance and retreat, and to put it bluntly, they were bullying the weak and fearing the hard.

When they feel that it is profitable to do something, they often show a determination to do it, but when they know that in order to accomplish it, they must pay a sufficient price, which is even far greater than the profit they will make by completing it, and they will be very sensible to withdraw as soon as possible.

If it weren't for the very high feasibility of this operation, the fact that the Manchus spent more troops, and the temptation to take the capital of the Ming Dynasty was too great, the Russians would not have been involved in this matter at all.

Judging from the current situation, the more this battle is fought, the more out of control, and the more he fights on his side, the more bottomless his heart becomes, and it is not impossible for Yerumov to have the intention to retreat.

"It's not that I don't want to continue the attack, but I have to make sure that there is no chance of success, we are indeed in an advantageous state at the moment, but don't forget, in the direction of Zhangjiakou, there are still 20,000 Ming troops, and they should arrive at noon tomorrow at the latest. At this time, we chose to retreat, it was very easy, and now the other party's national capital, there is such a big movement, once the enemy army in Mongolia knows about this situation, maybe they will urgently return to help, so that our trip can be regarded as the main force in Mongolia, to buy a lot of time to adjust the strategy. But if we continue to attack, and before noon tomorrow, we have not been able to break through the city in front of us, then we will face the enemy army in front and back, let alone take the city of Beijing, even if we want to withdraw safely, it will not be an easy task. Yarumurf analyzed a lot of it.

Although Lao Maozi is brave and good at fighting, most of them are low-level soldiers, real upper-class nobles, and they still cherish their own lives.

What is now in front of Yerumuf is likely to be a choice of life or death, and if he wins Juyong Pass within the specified time, he will be happy to win a big victory.

If it is not taken, it may face the danger of being surrounded and annihilated.

Most of the soldiers under Yerumuf were serfs in Tsarist Russia, and it was not a pity to die more, but Yerumuf himself was also in the ranks, and once the whole army was destroyed, he would not be able to escape, so the next battle could not allow him not to think carefully.

Moreover, from a strategic point of view, even if the Russian-Manchurian coalition forces failed to take Juyong Pass, they also played the effect of "encircling Wei and saving Zhao".

As long as the 100,000 Russian-Manchurian troops have been eyeing the border of the Ming Dynasty, the Ming army has to send troops from all over the country, even Mongolia, to send troops back to help in order to consolidate the border passes.

After all, this time it is Juyong Pass, and next time it may be Zhangjiakou, or Shanhaiguan and Jiayuguan......... Wait a minute.

With so many passes and so many guards in the nine-sided town, it is impossible for the Ming army to station 10,000 or 20,000 troops in any checkpoint.

Therefore, as long as the 100,000 Russian-Manchurian coalition troops do not have an accident, the Ming army will not dare to be too aggressive in the war in Mongolia, and it is even possible to return to the aid to pursue the 100,000 army in order to eliminate future troubles.

In this way, the purpose of encircling Wei to save Zhao was achieved.

"Zhangjiakou's reinforcements are not to be worried, under the long-distance attack, presumably heavy weapons such as artillery should not be able to come up in a short time, we have 20,000 cavalry in our hands, and we can take advantage of the speed advantage of the cavalry to delay the enemy's reinforcements. As for the defenders in Juyong Pass, maybe Han Dai's intelligence is wrong, but I think the number of people will not be too much, after all, the entire capital is such a big place, and the army that can be hidden will not exceed fifteen thousand at most! This is also consistent with the current situation, if there are really forty or fifty thousand troops in Juyong Pass, Fang Cai will not just take the military capital peak, but a comprehensive counterattack. Zilharang analyzed.

In this operation, the Russian-Manchurian coalition mobilized a total of 100,000 troops, but 80,000 of them were infantry, and only 20,000 cavalry.

Originally, the 20,000 cavalry were ready to stay after breaking through the pass and quickly kill the important mobile forces in the capital, but now that the situation has changed, they can only play this card first and use it to block the reinforcements in Zhangjiakou.

At the same time, Zilharang also understands that the defenders of Juyong Pass are more suspicious of "bluffing", and if they continue to hesitate at this time, it is really possible for the other party to get a chance to breathe.

After listening to Zilharang's analysis, Yerumov, the chief general of Tsarist Russia, thought to himself for a while, and then said: "I can put all the troops under the command of your army, but there is also one condition, before dawn, if you still don't see any hope, even if you still choose to continue the attack, I will not hesitate to lead the troops to retreat!" ”

In the end, Yerumuv decided to take a gamble, and at the same time put enough pressure on Zilharang, if he could not let Yerumuk see the hope of winning Juyong Pass before dawn, Yerumuf would definitely choose to withdraw his troops without hesitation..........

Although Yerumov was suspected of picking on a pick, after handing over the command, it also made the coordination of the two armies more close.

Although it was still nearly ten hours before dawn, Zilharang did not dare to delay time, and not long after he took command, he once again mobilized an army of 40,000 and launched a fierce attack on Juyong Pass.

At the same time, because Juyong Pass has an area of nearly two kilometers, within the range of the Ming army at Jundu Peak, if the Russian-Manchurian coalition forces want to achieve a full-scale attack like during the day, they must recapture Jundu Peak.

So Zilharang sent 10,000 musketeers to attack the Ming army in Jundu Peak.

The dark night had a great impact on the vision of the musketeers on both sides, and the Ming army could take advantage of the cover of the night and improvised trenches to calmly shoot and kill the enemy.

The Russian-Manchurian coalition forces could also quickly approach the Ming army's position under the cover of night, and take advantage of the numerical advantage to engage the Ming army in a short encounter.

Russian-Manchurian ....... To be precise, the Qing army, all the firearms and equipment, even including tactics and tactics, are almost completely imitated from the Ming army.

Needless to say, due to technical defects, the Qing army could only use the method of ignition with open flames, but in addition to this shortcoming, the power was not much worse than the black powder grenade used by the Ming army back then.

The same is true for flintlock pistols, the Qing army through the study of the captured Ming firearms that year, not only came up with a fixed load, but also at the top of the barrel, reserved an interface equipped with a bayonet, almost a copy of the Ming army's new flintlock pistol.

In those years, the Qing army was threatened by the "shaking gun" many times, and the Qing army also loved and hated this weapon, and after trying to get a sample of the weapon, it was finally successfully copied a year ago, and it became a very important close-range rapid-fire firearm in the firearms unit of the Qing army.

As for the big killing weapon of the Furlong machine, of course, the Qing army did not want to let it go, but due to the relatively complex manufacturing process and the high cost, they finally had to choose to give up.

But the Manchus were not stupid, and the all-firearms unit had to ensure that the weapons of short, medium, and long range complemented each other.

Although artillery can ensure long-range suppression, this kind of equipment cannot guarantee the effective strike of small forces.

It can be said that the Qing army at that time did not have a light firearm with a range of more than 200 meters, and there was still a vacancy in long-range firearms.

However, the Qing army found another way, on the basis of the original flintlock pistol, increased the caliber of the barrel, increased the length of the barrel, and used the method of increasing the amount of gunpowder filling to create an enlarged version of the flintlock pistol.

If Li Hongfei was here, he would definitely recognize this kind of firearm for the first time, that is, the Qing army in the Opium War and the suppression of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom Movement, a very famous weapon - carrying a gun.

The gun is a kind of heavy bird gun in the Qing Dynasty, about 1 zhang long, weighs more than 30 catties, its structure is not equipped with a bayonet, and the flintlock pistol of the Ming army, almost exactly the same, but the amount of charge, the range and the killing power are far greater than the flintlock pistol of the Ming army.

When lifting the gun and firing, it must be operated by two people, one person acts as a gun carriage in front of it, and the gun body is on the shoulder, and the other person aims and fires, and after the fire is completed, the loading of ammunition must also be completed by two people.

Even if the two cooperate tacitly, the maximum rate of fire of the gun is only about three rounds per two minutes.

But the power of the gun is indeed much more powerful than the ordinary flintlock pistol, because it is an enlarged version of the flintlock pistol, the caliber of the flintlock gun has reached an astonishing 21.5 mm, and it is not an exaggeration to call it a cannon.

The gun can be loaded with a solid projectile, and the effective range can reach 260 meters.

Wherever you hit it, there is a big hole in the mouth of the bowl, except for the arms, legs and feet, anywhere else, it is certain death.

Of course, in addition, the gun can also be equipped with scattered bullets, just like the Furlong machine gun, equipped with a scattered bullet composed of 20~50 small steel balls, the effective frontal killing range can reach ten meters, and the effective range of the scattered bullet can reach 180 meters.

In terms of power and rate of fire alone, it may not be as good as the Furlong machine, but it can't stand the opponent's low cost!

The cost of lifting the gun is only 2.5 times that of the flintlock pistol, about one-eighth of the Furlong gun, that is to say, with the current industrial level of the Ming Dynasty, the cost of manufacturing a Furlong gun can make eight guns.

In addition, although the gun is a "heavy weapon", the overall weight is only half of the Furlong machine, and in terms of quickly putting it into the battlefield, the efficiency of the gun is indeed much higher than that of the Furlong machine.

It seems that the old firearms and equipment that can be used in another time and space, which lasted until the end of the Qing Dynasty, are not without its merits.

In fact, after the large-scale refitting of the Ming army, the former famous Fran machine gun is now also facing a very embarrassing situation.

In the past, the Fran machine was the best among the light weapons of the Ming army in terms of rate of fire, range, and power.

But with the entry into service of the "Da Ming style", the advantage of the Furlong machine began to gradually weaken.

In terms of rate of fire, the "single gun" is basically the same as the Furlong gun, but one is a single reload and the other is a double reload, so the judgment is superior.

In terms of firing range, although both weapons began to use smokeless gunpowder, the effective range of the "single gun" has reached 350 meters, while the effective range of the Furlong machine gun is only 240 meters, which is not even comparable to the range of the Qing army after using a solid projectile with a gun.

If it weren't for the suppression of the cavalry, this kind of cumbersome Furlong machine gun would have been eliminated by the Ming army a long time ago, after all, because of the innate design limitations, no matter how it is improved, the growth space of the Furlong machine gun will not be too large.

This is also one of the reasons why Li Hongfei is in a hurry to mount the heavy machine gun.........

Well, to get back to the point, although most of the firearms units of the Qing army imitate the second-line troops of the Ming army today, the Qing army at this time, whether in terms of equipment or will to fight, is not comparable to another time and space, the Opium War.

And the weapons and equipment of the Ming army are actually not much more advanced than the British army during the Opium War, another time and space.

If you really want to fight, it is very likely to be a big battle of equal strength, after all, the Russian-Manchurian coalition army completely crushed the Ming Defense Army in terms of numbers.

The battle on Juyong Pass, as always, entered a state of stalemate, and even after Qi Hongying's instructor took over the defense line, he faintly gained the upper hand, after all, half of the instructor's troops were equipped with "Da Ming II style" rear-loading rifles, and their range and rate of fire were not at all something that the Russian-Manchurian coalition could make up for by relying on numerical superiority.

Coupled with the excellent bunker of the city wall, the only thing the Russian-Manchurian coalition army could do was to continuously consume the living force of the Ming army on the city wall, and there was nothing else to do.

So the Russian-Manchurian coalition army hit the idea on the deep lone army of Jundufeng.

If this Ming army can be successfully eaten, it will not only be able to boost the morale of the army, but also stretch the battle line again, which is not a victory for the Russian-Manchurian coalition army, but at least it can return to the state of the day again.

It is not clear how many reinforcements came from Juyong Pass, but presumably the longer the battle line is stretched, there will be only disadvantages and no benefits to the Ming army, otherwise it is impossible for the Ming army to know the danger and take the initiative to go out of the pass to "send them to death", isn't it just to give Juyong Pass and hold these two-fifths of the city wall?
