"One round loading, school shooting. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info "The artillery set up behind the mechanized infantry has already aimed its guns at their enemy. Ju Guochong was born in the artillery department, so the artillery of the Tiger Regiment he led may be the highest-quality artillery unit in the Tang Army.

The howitzers, towed by trucks, were quickly deployed by the artillerymen, and the eighteen 105-mm howitzers of the regimental artillery battalion have been the army's most reliable support fire. The performance of this model of artillery is very good, so until Bai Nan and they crossed, the military industrial complex of Nanbang continued to make a fuss about it, and it has been in service for more than 70 years since World War II, which is quite terrible.

This area of Fengtai is completely different from the prosperous scene of the capital in later generations, at this time it can only be regarded as a suburb, although there are also villages, but they are sparse and not concentrated, and the war is together, many people have fled with their families. The large force of more than 3,000 people of the Xiaocai Battalion drove from the Fengtai Battalion in a mighty way, and naturally they would not choose a place where the terrain was cramped to march, and the place where they were located was quite open, which also provided better conditions for the artillery of the Tang Dynasty.

At this time, the cavalry battalion did not know that it was about to be in trouble, and when the shells fired by the school fell in front of them, the cavalry battalion realized that it had been attacked.

"Great General Cannon! The thief army has a big general cannon! "Inevitably, there were some riots in the camp.

However, the deputy capital of the leader shouted: "What are you surprised? It's just a big general's cannon, just near the left, rush up for me to grab it, the cannon is those who don't have the guts, rush to the front and see if the cannon can hurt you! ”

"My lord, Erzhen's Niulu has been destroyed!" The cavalry who had fled back from the Blue Banner quickly conveyed the situation, but the cavalry battalion didn't seem to have much choice now.

The deputy commander stubbornly said: "Go and grab the cannon first." The general who seized the cannon bombarded the iron chariots. The brethren were all cavalrymen. Even if you can't beat it, you can run. ”

He didn't want to say this, but if he didn't say it, everyone had a way out, and these Eight Banners soldiers under him might not follow him at all. During the Qianlong period, the Eight Banners Beijing Battalion was already so corrupt that it could not be further corroded, not only was its combat effectiveness seriously reduced, but its discipline was even poorer, and even the orders of the Shangguan could sometimes be ignored.

However, before the main cavalry of the cavalry battalion could rush up, more artillery fire swept over there. The grenade smashed into the cavalry formation. The shock wave and fragments generated by the explosion can knock down a dozen to dozens of Eight Banner cavalry in an instant, these Beijing cavalry have never been on the battlefield in their lives, although they shout and shout and kill on weekdays, making themselves mighty, but they really see this kind of death and injury and tragedy, and they are immediately intimidated. The first person to be instigated was none other than the deputy commander who called at the beginning, and he didn't even say hello, and immediately urged his horse to gallop, trying to run out of this artillery area.

The accuracy of these dozen or so cannons is not good. However, the cavalry formation of the cavalry battalion was relatively scattered, and almost all of these shells fell into the cavalry formation. Even more unlucky. In the process of marching, they did not let the horses run, and at the moment of the shelling, the cavalry could not let the horses run wildly, and more of them were a group of Eight Banners cavalry wearing various colors of cotton armor colliding with each other, and even some were knocked off their horses alive.

Another round of shells came over, and this time it completely broke up the cavalry force of 3,000 people, they were like a group of frightened hens, fluttering and running in all directions, and the leaders and staff leaders of each department had no way to gather their own troops, and the reality was that many of the fastest runners were these Eight Banner officers.

Ju Guochong was naturally unwilling to let them go, his mechanized infantry had already rushed over, machine guns, artillery sounded in a row, and batches of Qing soldiers were harvested in this way, but there were still a large number of cavalry galloping and fleeing, after all, it was cavalry, mobility was still there, Ju Guochong could not pursue these cavalry for a while, and could only defeat the enemy's main force on the spot.

Only later did I know that the soldiers of the Eight Banners who died in the battle were more than 300 people, which was almost about 10% of the strength of this army, but the artillery was too scary. The soldiers of the Cold Weapon Era, who had never seen this kind of shelling, were at a loss for the effect of this kind of shelling, especially when there was no cohesion and morale, they could not make any resistance at all, and they fled directly.

Ju Guochong didn't catch too many prisoners, more of an unlucky guy who was injured and couldn't escape on horseback or died on his horse. He didn't want to waste time, so he began to storm the Fengtai camp with mechanized infantry again, and the Xiaocai battalion left behind in the Fengtai camp also couldn't deal with the chariots that were all iron, although the soldiers here already had some muskets, but they still couldn't effectively kill the Tang army, and finally had to surrender in large numbers.

In the process of capturing the Fengtai camp, Ju Guochong was worried that the defenders would use the buildings as cover to kill and wound the infantry who had already dismounted, so he attacked many buildings, and the mortar and machine gun fire made the Fengtai camp a mess.

That's why Su Muri, who took over the Fengtai camp a week later, saw it in tatters.

After Su Muli arrived at the Fengtai camp with the hunting group, he repaired some of the facilities in the camp, but he did not restore all the camp. On the one hand, because the size of the cavalry hunting group is less than 1,000 people, and the Fengtai camp is a camp that provides a field for 6,000 to tens of thousands of people, so Sumuri does not need such a large place; On the other hand, Sumuri had received a new order from Bai Nan, and his cavalry would begin a sweep of the Zhili area. This sweep, of course, was not to harass and harm the local population, but to strike at any enemy that was found.

Baeknam has no satellite reconnaissance, no drone reconnaissance, and no radar in this plane, so he can only use cavalry to cast a net on a large area and reconnoiter the situation in the Gyeonggi area. Relatively speaking, the intelligence situation on the Qing side was better than their own, and they were the nominal rulers, so when the Qing troops arrived, they could easily inquire about the movements of the Tang army from nearby residents. Now Bai Nan and the Tang army are in the open, they are on the defensive, and they have to wait for the Qing army to make a move.

Limited by poor organizational skills and ignorance of the Tang Army, the Qing Army's response was quite slow, which made Bai Nan and many Tang officers, who had been accustomed to the rhythm of modern warfare, very uncomfortable, but not adaptable, the Tang Army also had its own problems, such as relatively limited troops, even if it could defeat the enemy in one fell swoop, but it was impossible to effectively control the relevant areas.

So in the plan, Bai Nan asked the core to control the capital, and even Tianjin City he didn't ask for too much control. Even on the first day, Tianjin had already fallen into the hands of the Tang army, but except for the capture of the Manchus in the city and the maintenance of law and order in the city, the Tang army did not interfere with the normal life of the city's residents. Of course, there are still large numbers of people who have fled from the city to the countryside for refuge.

The Tang army was located in the headquarters of the capital, and Bai Nan said to the generals and colonies attending the meeting: "The Qing army forces near the Beijing division have been basically wiped out by us, and the Beijing camp of the Eight Banners, the infantry army camp, and the green camp of Tongyong Town and Tianjin Town have been completely defeated by us. And there is still a town around us now, Gubeikou Town guarding the Great Wall, and so far there has been no reaction here, well, since they don't move, then let's move. The 3rd Brigade is about to join us in the near future, and I have decided to shift our defensive posture to an active defensive phase. ”

Bai Nan continued: "Gubeikou and Juyong Pass are our north gates, the southwest Bauhinia Pass is our south gate, and further northeast is Shanhaiguan, the most important Great Wall defense system in China in the feudal era to defend North China and Beijing. In fact, even for us, if we do not attack the capital from the north and southwest by sea, we will still encounter great trouble, even if our artillery can blast through the Great Wall, but the harsh terrain and supply logistics will delay our attack and provide more convenience to the enemy. Fortunately, now we are at the center of this core defensive circle, and we are fighting from the inside out.

As we all know, the enemy we are most likely to face now is the enemy from the northeast, that is, the Eight Banners troops under General Fukang An Shengjing, and the Green Battalion army that is also in this direction. On the other hand, the enemy came from the northwest, and we could not judge for the time being, whether the Mongol princes would raise troops to enter the pass when they learned that the capital division was occupied by us, so to block the entry of the Mongol army, we must control the northern section of the Great Wall. Finally, the enemy came from the south, because the Qing army did not form a unified Qinwang organization for the time being, and we could not rashly judge which parts of the Qing army were and where they came from, but we can generally guess that it is the strength of Nanzhili, Shandong, Shanxi and even Henan, these forces are mainly based on the green battalion, of course, we cannot rule out the participation of local regimental training, if someone really pinched up the regimental training, then the enemy strength we will face is unpredictable. ”

Chang Bin laughed and said, "Even if there are more enemies, we can clean them up, can't we?" ”

Everyone smiled kindly, and they all seemed to be optimistic about their combat power. In fact, the same is true for Bai Nan, someone is bound to launch the Qinwang War, and the scale of this war is likely to be not small. But with sufficient supplies, Bai Nan considered himself invincible.

The Qing army now needs enough time to digest the situation that the capital is occupied and the emperor does not know whether he is alive or dead, and it will also take time to prepare for war, Bai Nan can also use this time to accumulate more strength and strive for a more active battlefield situation, for example, now he plans to sweep away several Qing strongholds on his side and occupy favorable defensive passes.
