The scouts reported that the Ming army had set up a defensive line, which looked dense, and there were still quite a few people, and at the forefront of the line was the Shenji battalion, and the sergeants were holding arquebuses in their hands. As for the layout in the back, I can't see it clearly.

Azig had a cruel smile on his face.

The Ming Dynasty's Shenji Battalion, of course he has been in contact with, the power of the arquebus, he also knows the Tao, all thanks to Kong Youde and others who took refuge in the Qing Dynasty, the Han military camp of the Qing Dynasty is a typical Shenji Battalion, mainly relying on artillery and arquebuses.

If you want to talk about the power of the arquebus, there are indeed some, but the disadvantages of the arquebus are more, the time interval between firing is long, and once the cavalry breaks through the defensive line, the sergeant becomes a lamb to the slaughter.

The cavalry of the Great Qing Kingdom, the speed of the charge is very fast, and the sergeants of the Ming Dynasty can fire at most one round of bullets, I am afraid that it is too late to change the ammunition, and the cavalry has already arrived.

The Ming army has also seen such a formation, and in the end, the cavalry of the Great Qing Kingdom defeated the Ming army, and the battle became a massacre later.

Azig will not rashly launch an attack, after all, the information he got has already lost 20,000 people in front, not to mention whether this news is true or false, at least it shows that the Ming army on the opposite side has a certain combat effectiveness.

A gust of wind blew, and Azig sniffed his nose and looked up at the sky, a look of ecstasy on his face.

It's going to rain, and after the rain, the arquebus becomes a burning stick, which has no effect, so that the brothers can reduce casualties and tear open the Ming army's defense line as quickly as possible.

Azig spoke, ordering all the sergeants to wait where they were.

Su Tiancheng was also looking at the sky, and he couldn't imagine that at the critical moment, it was going to rain.

It's summer. There is obviously more rain, a few years ago, the North Zhili area, including the Central Plains, can not do the work, but this year is strange, there is a lot of rain.

"Command all the soldiers. Get ready, God is going to be powerful, when it rains, it is the moment when the Tartars start to attack, grasp the rhythm, and kill the Tartars to the maximum. ”

Liu Tiehan, who was beside him, was eager to try, and after accepting the task of capturing Azig alive, he was not able to calm down.

Su Tiancheng glanced at Liu Tiehan.

"Iron man. Calm down, the battle hasn't started yet, don't be in a hurry, do it when you have the opportunity, don't force it if you don't have the opportunity. ”

The rain finally fell.

It was actually a torrential rain, and it was raining heavily.

The scout quickly returned to his camp to report his life.

"Report, the Tartars have begun to advance, and they are less than ten miles away from our camp."

"Revisit."

The sound of the torrential rain could hardly hide the tremors of the earth. The momentum of 80,000 cavalry was enormous and terrifying. The distance was so far away that the soldiers of the Jiangning battalion all felt the shock.

Everyone's faces were very peaceful, including the more than 20,000 Datong border troops, after the last battle, they completely eliminated their fear, and it turned out that the Tartars could also be defeated.

When the scouts come again to report it. The forward of Azig is 10,000 people, and it is only five miles away from the defense line of the Jiangning battalion.

The artillery battalion is ready for everything.

Heavy rain is more favorable for the artillery battalion, which can quickly reduce the temperature of the gun chamber. Makes the Tiger Squat and Furlong cannon fire faster.

The scout came to Su Tiancheng again, and before he could speak, Su Tiancheng had already raised the drum hammer in his hand.

The rumbling of drums was accompanied by the sound of the hoofs of the Tartars as they charged.

Two hundred guns roared at the same time.

Although the distance was a little far, the huge sound of artillery still shook the Datong border army by surprise, and some people subconsciously covered their ears, the soldiers of the Jiangning battalion had long been used to it, and no one moved.

Azig took the striker and personally launched the attack.

He rejected the advice of the strategists, and took all his personal soldiers with him to take the lead in the attack.

In the heavy rain, the sergeant of the Shenji Battalion, who was in front of him, had become the target of the massacre.

It was at this time that the cannon rang out.

Azig felt bad, his father had suffered a loss, that time he attacked Ningyuan Lonely City, the Qing Kingdom suffered the most significant loss, it was because of artillery, I didn't expect the Ming army to prepare artillery, it seems that the Jiangning battalion is still a little famous.

At the beginning of the war, the power of artillery was indeed not small, but as long as it persisted, there were more cases of artillery explosions, and the power would gradually decrease.

Azig was still rushing forward, and at this time, the faster he was, the more he was able to dodge the artillery.

Something left him stunned.

The cannonballs fell in the middle of the charging team, and they actually bloomed, and as the cannonballs fell, the screams came and went, and many sergeants were rushed into the air by the powerful air current, and when they fell, they had no breath.

The horses were frightened and became disobedient.

The intensity of the shells has reached a frightening level, a few meters away from Azig, a shell landed, and the pro-soldiers desperately blocked the front, Azig watched several pro-soldiers spit blood and fall down.

This is a cannonball that Azig has never seen, what is going on, when Kong Youde surrendered to the Qing Dynasty, he also brought artillery, and it was a powerful red-coated cannon, but the cannonball doesn't seem to bloom, does it mean that the army has any new weapons, or that Kong Youde left a hand.

Seeing that the charging team was in disarray, and many of his brothers had fallen in pools of blood, never able to stand up, Azig's eyes were red, and he raised his steel knife.

No matter how powerful the artillery shells of the Ming army were, he had to lead his brothers to win this battle.

The second group of Tartars began to charge, also 10,000 men.

Before he came into contact with the Ming sergeants, 20,000 people had already been dispatched, which was beyond Azig's imagination.

Su Tiancheng, who was standing on a high place, looked at all this with cold eyes, he vaguely remembered that before the crossing, he had watched a movie, and he forgot the name, as if it was a reflection of the story of the Eight-Nation Alliance's invasion of China, and the Qing soldiers also charged like this, facing the cannons and flintlock pistols of the Eight-Nation Alliance, and finally all of them were killed.

All this in front of me seems to be a true portrayal of the movie.

Azig had no idea the power of the artillery and flintlock pistols, and the losses caused by a blind charge could only be greater, and the more concentrated the charging personnel, the more powerful the artillery would be.

Watching the shells fall in the ranks of the Tartar charge, and rounds of blood flashed, Su Tiancheng knew that he had succeeded, and he could kill and injure the Tartars to the greatest extent today, after this battle, the Tartars had only to flee for their lives, and the Jiangning battalion could chase after the Tartars' buttocks and attack with confidence.

Of course, it would be best to be able to capture Azig.

It's not too far from Xifengkou here, according to the escape speed of the Tartars, it is still possible to run some out of the Tartars, the key is that the Ming troops in Changping, Juyongguan and Xifengkou are really cowardly, and they don't have the courage to resist the Tartars, and they don't have that kind of strength.

The huge power of the artillery made Azig a little dazed, the loss was too great, the artillery of the Ming army was so powerful, it continued to fire, and the falling shells kept blooming, and every time it bloomed, there must be a sergeant thrown into the air, which seemed to have become a fixed pattern.

Around him, there were already a few shells blooming, and because of the desperate protection of his own soldiers, there were no problems.

The team that can charge has been formed, at this time, it is impossible to retreat, even if it is a mountain of swords and a sea of fire, it is necessary to rush forward, as long as the coverage of this layer of artillery is broken, all the problems will be solved.

I don't know how long it has passed, but Azig was pleasantly surprised to find that many brothers had rushed over, not far from the Ming sergeant.

He saw the hope of victory, although the rain was a little smaller, but the arquebus had no effect, and the funny thing was that the Ming Dynasty's Shenji Battalion was still placed in the front.

The continuous sound of firecrackers rang out, and the brothers who rushed over, like leeks being harvested, fell down in rows, and no one was spared, leaving the war horses in place with the neighing of grief and indignation.

Azig thought there was something wrong with his eyes.

Isn't it raining, what arquebuses can still be fired, what's going on, is God helping the Ming army, it's impossible.

The Tartars who are charging have already hesitated, bombs are constantly falling around them, there are arquebuses waiting in front, no matter how you look at it, it is a dead end, in this case, is it necessary to charge, after all, senseless sacrifices are unnecessary.

But at this time, no one dared to escape, or retreated from the battle, and there was no chance to retreat, if there was no one to command, blindly retreated, and the sergeants and war horses in front and behind collided together, it would be really miserable, and everyone was ready to sleep here.

Some pro-soldiers, regardless of their own safety, loudly reminded Azig whether to retreat temporarily to avoid causing greater losses.

Azig glared and did not announce the order to retreat.

It was also because of this attachment that he plunged himself into a deep quagmire.

The tactics of cutting leeks continued, and groups of sergeants who rushed through the area covered by artillery fire fell under the bullets of the flintlock muskets, and no sergeant was able to break through the defensive line of the Shenji battalion.

Azig, who woke up like a dream, hesitated whether to issue an order to retreat.

If you don't retreat, 20,000 soldiers will die here, and the remaining 60,000 soldiers will probably be really dangerous.

But Azig was still a little unwilling, and lost thousands of brothers, in exchange for such a result, could it be that even the Ming army did not come into contact with it, so he was ready to retreat.

The red-eyed Azig is ready to gamble.

He raised his steel sword again, and just as the surrounding soldiers were shocked, the third group of 10,000 Tartars charged.

Su Tiancheng, who was standing on a high place, only sighed, if the commander of Houjin is such a virtuous person, it is estimated that it will not be long before people will die, knowing that they can't do it, then it is not a stupid question, it is simply looking for death.

Such a good opportunity, how could Su Tiancheng miss it. (To be continued......)
