The defense of Chongming Island took a major turn because of a small grenade. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

In order to get a sample of the grenade, Bolo decided to devote all his troops to the battle to encircle and suppress this Qi army.

100,000 against 5,000, this is the rhythm of killing chickens with a knife.

However, is Qi Jiajun really that kind of weak chicken?

Obviously not, after two exchanges of fire between the two sides, and the Qing army has wasted more than two hours in order to gather the ranks, the Qing army has lost all the opportunities in the tense and fierce battlefield.

"What do you say? Enemy reinforcements have arrived, and it's a tank battalion? With such a big commotion, why did you tell me now what the scouts were for! Bolo roared.

How powerful the chariot battalion is, how can Bolo, who has been fighting against the Ming army in the north all the year round, not know, and at the same time he also knows the weakness of the chariot battalion, that is, it takes a long time to form a formation.

If you want to break the chariot battalion, you must quickly defeat the opponent before they line up, otherwise once the chariot formation is formed, it will be equivalent to a mobile war fortress, and it will not be able to break through at all without paying several times the price.

However, when the scouts found the chariot battalion, it was already a chariot battalion, could this not annoy Bolo?

"Lord Qiyu, this Qi family army is cunning, they put out a mandarin duck formation to attract our attention, but they put the chariot battalion five miles behind the array, and they have scattered a large number of scouts nearby, our scouts want to explore the situation five miles away from the rear, they need to take a long detour, and when they come back, the chariot battalion of the Qi family army has already moved to the front." A general explained.

The main role of scouts is to detect the enemy's situation, there are Qi's troops in front of them, naturally, they have become the main target of these scouts, and now the number of troops on the island is very clear, in the eyes of these scouts, no matter how many come, it is just to die.

Moreover, the scouts had no horses, so they naturally didn't bother to run four or five miles to investigate, and the Qi family army also sent scouts to block it in advance, so the chariot battalion five miles away lined up, and the Qing army didn't find it at all.

By the time the Qing army was defeated and the rout army was gathered, the chariot battalion had already completed the formation and headed towards the battlefield, and Qi Zhifeng also took the opportunity to lead the Qi family army to retreat, and soon converged with the chariot battalion.

When the Qing army planned to send troops to surround the Qi army, the chariot battalion of the Qi army was already in place..........

"The chariot battalion has appeared, and I'm afraid this battle is a little troublesome." Bolo knew that in this situation, it was useless to get angry, but he still couldn't help but want to explode.

"My lord, what are we going to do now? Why don't we let go of this Qi family army, first solve the remaining troops on the island, and finally slowly clean up this group of enemy troops? A general proposed.

Another weakness of the chariot battalion is that it moves slowly, and its strong firepower and defense make it lose its due mobility.

"Even if it's a chariot battalion, I Bolo doesn't believe in this evil! Send someone to disassemble the guns on the warship for me, I want to see who has more guns! "Bolo is also a bull temper.

Although the Qing army only had more than 300 small warships left, almost every warship had a Furlong cannon, and even two medium-sized warships were equipped with Hongyi cannons..........

"Damn, if this chariot battalion had come over earlier, we wouldn't have lost a few hundred brothers!" The generals of the Ming Army, stroking the protective shields made of iron sheets, rattans, etc. on the chariot, couldn't help but sigh.

In the previous shooting with the Xiaocai battalion, the Qi family army killed 172 people, 264 people were wounded and lost their combat effectiveness, and the 5,000 Qi family army in the two battles just now, although more than 2,700 enemies were annihilated, but their own losses were equally heavy, and the battle loss ratio was close to one-tenth.

And the losses of the Qing army, on the whole, are just a drop in the bucket, plus the defects of the grenade have been exposed, if the Qing army comes a few more times, the Qi family army does not know how to resist.

"Okay, now that there is a chariot battalion to replenish it, if the Qing army wants to rely on the rattan soldiers to charge, it is just a humiliation. You must know that this chariot battalion is still a sacred object formed by our General Qi Jiguang, and even the Mongolian cavalry can defend it, just a group of Manchu infantry, there is nothing to be afraid of! Qi Zhifeng cheered up the soldiers.

The arrival of the chariot battalion not only provided protection for the Qi army, but also increased the powerful firepower output, and the two hundred and fifty-six Furlong machine guns alone were enough for the Qing army to drink a pot.

The Fran cannon is a large rear-loading artillery manufactured by European technology during the Zhengde period of the Ming Dynasty, using flowering shells with shells, and the equipment reached 3,800 in 1537, with a crosshair and a light door.

The effective firing range of the Furlong cannon is 500 meters, loaded with solid shells, when fired at a 45-degree elevation angle, the firing range can even reach 1000 meters, of which the large cannon body is 250 cm (caliber 105 mm), the medium one is 156 cm (caliber 75 mm), the small one is 93 cm (caliber 40 mm, that is, the Furlong machine gun), the shells are loaded from the rear, the firing interval is short, and when the large Furlong cannon fires scattered shells, a shell carries 500 bullets, which can block the front 60 meters wide, and the power is amazing.

And this kind of large Furlong cannons are generally equipped on warships, and the Furlong cannons equipped by the tank battalion are the kind of medium-sized Furlong cannons that can block the frontal width of 30 meters in front.

"With the chariot battalion, unless the opponent's entire army attacks, there is nothing to fear at all!" Qi Zhifeng said in high spirits.

However, sometimes fate is so wonderful, as soon as Qi Zhifeng's words fell, the scouts in front came with information, and the whole Qing army surrounded him..........

The Qing soldiers did receive an order for the whole army to surround the Qi family's army, but no one dared to get close to the Qi's army camp within 800 meters, and the effective range of the Fulong machine gun loading scattered bombs was about 500 meters, and the solid bullets had a 45-degree elevation angle, and the firing range even reached 1,000 meters.

Approaching about 800 meters, it is already an adventure.

The Qing army besieged but did not attack, on the one hand, to persuade Qi Zhifeng to surrender, and on the other hand, to delay time and wait for the artillery to arrive.

"Let's surrender? his grandma's, I'm going to cut each other! "There were hot-tempered generals who immediately broke out when they heard the word surrender.

Previously, the Qi family's army suffered such serious losses, and they never thought of surrendering, but now with the protection of the chariot battalion, and the big killing weapon such as grenades, even if the Qing army attacked, they would not necessarily be timid, and at this time, persuading them to surrender had no effect at all.

"Forget it, if the two armies don't fight, I won't be bothered to see the messenger, let him tell the Qing army generals: If you want to fight, I will fight!" In order to show his determination, Qi Zhifeng did not even plan to meet the messenger.

After a stick of incense, the messenger replied: "The other party said, give us an hour to consider, if we do not descend after an hour, the whole army will attack." ”

"This Manchu general is really interesting, don't say an hour, even if you wait a year, I won't surrender, could it be that they want to trap us here and starve to death?" The hot-tempered general from before spoke again.

"It's not like starvation, I guess the other side is stalling for time." Qi Zhifeng said on a whim.

The attacking side is actually trying to find a way to delay time, and ordinary generals really can't think of this stubble.

"No matter what the Qing soldiers are doing, as long as they dare to attack, our chariot battalion will definitely let them taste the power!" The general of the tank battalion assured.

"What does the other party want to do? Forget it, let's take one step at a time, anyway, if you hold on for another hour, Hongying's side should also be arranged, and by then, with the chariot battalion, you should be able to break through. "I can't think about things, Qi Zhifeng doesn't want to think about it.

His task is to delay time, and now the other party is besieging and not attacking, which is exactly what he wants.
