More than 20 miles south of Ningyuan City, there is a place called Sancha Hezi.

The terrain around this side is very flat, with sparse trees and scattered weeds dotted around the ground. A wide official road went straight in the direction of Ningyuan City. At this moment, two large armies with high numbers and high morale stood opposite each other at the end of the official road. A clash of blood and fire is about to begin. And this battle will directly determine the fate of Guanwai.

Near the side of the Ming army, there is an earthen platform that is only a few meters high and hundreds of square meters in radius. As for the name, no one knows at all. And this small platform that was temporarily driven by biochemical soldiers with bulldozers and road rollers is the core position of the Ming army. The powerful artillery position was set up on this earthen platform. The artillerymen only need to change the angle to control the huge battlefield around them.

Gao Yang's horse trotted up to the earthen platform. The corners of his mouth pursed and looked around, looking after a long distance at the battlefield. The waist is straight, Gao Yang stretched out his hand to cover his forehead, looked at the blue and cloudless sky, and muttered in his mouth: "Didn't you say that this time the Xiaoice River period will end this year?" Why is it still so hot today? When it's cold, it's cold, and when it's hot, it's hot. Is this still the Xiaoice period? ”

"Is it okay to be late summer or early autumn? Isn't it normal for the weather to get a little hot once in a while? In this era, it still snowed in Guangzhou in the south. Isn't that weird? It's not a big deal. Origin said with a smile.

"The point is that I'm wearing such a thick military uniform now, it's really terrible. Do you feel like you've been squeamish lately, and you can't bear the hardships? Gao Yang casually unbuttoned the wind and discipline button on his neck, stretched out his hand and fanned his neck hard.

"Okay, the sergeants who are basking in the sun haven't said anything, so don't complain. Let's fight the war well. Still squeamish? Others don't know. I still know you? The origin said helplessly.

"Huh." Gao Yang chuckled, "The atmosphere is a little serious, just make a joke to ease the mood." After all, it was a battle of more than 100,000 people. It's still going to be a little nervous. ”

"What scene haven't you experienced? Are you still nervous? Yuan asked in surprise.

"Whew~~~" Gao Yang breathed a sigh of relief, squinting his eyes and looking at the huge battlefield in front of him. A look of helplessness flashed in his eyes. He whispered to himself, "I'm a human, not a machine." These are not NPCs. They're all living beings. ”

As the formation ended, the high-pitched sound of military trumpets resounded throughout the battlefield. The combined army of more than 100,000 on both sides began to cheer and cheer in unison almost at the same time to boost their morale. The sound shook the four fields, and the huge noise shook the sky!

At this moment, on the outer boundary of the two armies, their respective sentinels and night guards are galloping on horseback, fighting for their lives, desperately doing the work of covering the battlefield. The supposedly most elite Bayalas in the Manchu army tried their best to get close to the Ming army in the distance. At the very least, it should be within the range of the steel heavy arrows in your hand.

It's a pity that the Ming army's night troops are all selected from tens of thousands of people to be equally elite. Their riding and fighting skills may not be as good as those of the bayaras, but their precision shooting skills, fed with countless bullets, are paired with the new Ferguson rear-loading rifle that is a magic weapon of the era. That's the terrifying method of chasing souls and killing people!

In the face of this terrifying combination, those brave Bayalas could only sadly find that they couldn't even get close to the Ming army! The martial arts and archery skills that he had learned all his life were completely useless. Listen to "Bang Bang! The voice rang out again and again, looking at the white smoke rising from time to time on the opposite side, the robes beside him kept falling to the ground. The teeth of the baralas are going to be crushed!

Gao Yang set up a large formation that resembled a square, and on the earthen platform in the middle, which was slightly raised, was an artillery position. The earth platform was surrounded by thousands of dragoons who served as reserves. On the perimeter of the artillery and dragoons were a phalanx of infantry in companies. The muskets in their hands could shoot in any direction. The entire military formation is like a hedgehog, which makes people unable to speak.

The Manchu army on the opposite side of this battle was too numerous in number, and Gao Yang armed all the auxiliaries as well. Fortunately, the daily training of these auxiliaries is the same as that of the regular soldiers. Pick up a weapon and throw it into battle. The addition of thousands of people also made the entire military formation look much thicker.

The corners of Dolgon's eyes twitched slightly, looking at the battle between the Ming army and the Bayala Protector in the distance. It wasn't a battle anymore, it was more like a one-sided slaughter!

He never imagined that firearms could be so powerful. The Bayala soldiers, who had received professional military training since childhood, had the martial arts of a hundred-man enemy, but they did not have the slightest opportunity to show them. The armor that was several layers thick on his body couldn't even withstand a small buckshot! What's wrong with the world now?! Still don't let people live? What had happened in the last few days had turned Dolgon's three views upside down.

Looking at the Ming army on the opposite side, Dolgon's heart immediately twitched. There are also tens of thousands of Ming soldiers over there who are also armed with firearms! If all the Ming armies were so capable of fighting. The battle was already lost before it even started.

In the past, the Ming army also used firearms, but at that time those firearms looked more like a cold joke that people couldn't laugh at. In addition to the relatively loud sound, at most it loses its effect after a few dozen steps away. Use the cavalry to rush through with a single assault, and you can get it all done by getting close. Where had he ever seen such a terrifying weapon capable of killing people hundreds of paces away! Not one, but tens of thousands!

Dolgon was very frightened at the moment, he was afraid that the Ming army had invented firearms that were even more terrifying than before. Once the Ming army, which is almost infinite in number, has popularized this kind of mass killing weapon, then the Jianzhou Jurchen clan will really have no way to live. I can't find the door to surrender. There are too many Han people killed over the years, and the two sides have long been immortal!

"Seventh brother, you have been fighting on the battle array for many years, what do you think of this battle today?" Dorgon barely suppressed his fear. He looked sideways at Abatai, who was wearing a yellow armor, and asked softly.

When he was young, Abatai followed Nurhachi on his expeditions to the east and west. Decades of fighting on the battlefield. He has a lot of experience in battle. He had been carefully observing the Ming army's military formation before. At this moment, hearing Dolgon's gentle inquiry, he twitched the corners of his mouth imperceptibly. After saluting, he said in a low voice, "Lord Wang, if you look at the experience in the past, these battle formations laid out by the Ming army are vulnerable. The elite stepped forward to seduce the Ming army to open fire, and then the army assaulted. At most, we will carry a round of firearms and shoot, as long as we let our people lean on, then we will win. "It's okay for Dorgon to call him the seventh brother, but Abatai can't call him the fourteenth brother of Dolgon, because he is a concubine.

"Hmm." Dolgon lowered his eyelids slightly, replied noncommittally, and did not speak. But he was very dissatisfied in his heart. What Abbatey just said was all nonsense. If this Ming army can't help but fight like the Ming army it encountered before, then the whole army that still needs us to go on the pole is not to say, and it is still hesitant to stay here and dare not attack?

Abatai saw Dolgon's unhappy face, he has been a brother for so many years, what kind of temper and character Dolgon is, of course, he knows very well as an elder brother. He gritted his teeth, his gaze condensed. Abatai said in a deep voice, "But this Ming army is well-trained, I'm afraid it won't be fooled easily." And their firearms are powerful, they have a long range, and most importantly, they are numerous! Whether it's a night attack or a bait battle, nothing will have much effect. ”

"What do you mean, Brother Seven?" Dolgon smiled at the corners of his mouth, but his eyes were unusually cold as he looked at Abatai and asked softly.

Abbatey paused, then gritted his teeth and said in a deep voice, "Either wait until it rains to raid them." I looked at the equipment of this Ming army, although it was equipped with daggers and combat knives, but almost all of their sergeants used firearms. Once it rains, there will be no such fighting power. ”

"Hmm." Dorgon nodded in satisfaction. It wasn't the answer he wanted, but it was a good idea. This shows that Abatai is at least good in terms of battle formations, and the ideas he gives can be used.

Dolgon looked up at the sky and chuckled and asked, "Do you think it's going to rain now?" ”

"This." Abatai also looked up at the sky. At this moment, the sun is high, the autumn is crisp, and the sky is cloudless. It doesn't look like it's going to rain. sighed, shook his head slightly, and said, "I guess I won't be able to wait for the rain today." And we don't have time to wait. If you don't fight today, you will be able to do it later."

"Seventh brother, it's good that you can understand." Dolgon nodded and said, "I also know that this Ming army is not easy to deal with. The firearms in their hands are too strong, and we have only one way to do it. ”

Abatai's body trembled slightly after listening to Dolgon's words. What he had never dared to say, he finally let Dorgon speak for himself.

"We have more than 100,000 horses, but the Ming army is less than 40,000. We can use human lives to fill in the same way that we surrounded and annihilated those Zhejiang and Sichuan armies during the Battle of the Hunhe River. Dorgon whispered. The tone is light and the voice is gentle. It is as kind as the brothers and beylers who speak as warm as jade in the Qing palace drama, but the words they say are full of endless blood!

Abatai lowered his head, not daring to look Dolgon in the eye. However, the slightly trembling hands betrayed his mood at the moment. He knew what Dolgon meant by provoking him before. I just want to use his mouth to say this idea. However, where can this method of warfare be used casually? The Ming army was numerous, and they might be okay to use. But how many of us Jianzhou Jurchen are there that you Dolgon don't know?! You're trying to kill us! To be continued)
