After years of growth, Zhu Zilong's mentality has gradually moved towards the realm of semi-politicians. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Looking at things and things, it has also developed from simply looking at the surface and only caring about personal emotions to looking at the overall situation and long-term interests.

Although the Shenji Battalion is one of the Beijing Battalions and is half of his subordinates, it is not directly under his jurisdiction.

The generals on the side, the same is true of the local army of the Ming Dynasty.

Basically, the Donglin Party and other civilian officials can no longer stir up much trouble in the DPRK and China. The next change is naturally to carry out the old army of the Ming Dynasty!

However, if the civil servants are more or less reasonable.

So the old army of the Ming Dynasty, even if it is the Shenji Battalion, it is a group of groups that are not very reasonable, and only talk about interests and personal interests.

At this time, the local army of the Ming Dynasty, for Zhu Zilong, was similar to the traitor army of the Red Army who took over the Inter Party in later generations. Although there are still some people in it who can be reformed and righteous, most of them are rotten from the roots and sinful.

This time the two sides fought a national war, and Zhu Zilong deliberately let the rest of the coalition army take the lead, which was to consume the strength of the old-style army. Otherwise, the Zhu Jiajun suffered too many casualties, and after the war, the Ming Dynasty would have to change back to the old one, and even the Zhu Jiajun would have to give his own people a blow.

The best result is that they and Houjin fought for about half of the two defeats, and they were able to clean up the mess as heroes themselves.

This time, why did the artillery team of the Shenji Battalion take the lead, but not the artillery team of the Zhu Family's army?

The reason, simpler.

First, the artillery of the Zhu Jiajun was mobilized to fight Li Zicheng, or garrisoned other places. Second, even if there are still some, they are still halfway there. Third, for the improvement of the Houjin artillery, Zhu Zilong has not had detailed data and intelligence.

Anyway, I have to try it out, so it's better to let the god machine camp.

At this moment!

With the flanks of Kong Youde, suddenly shelling began, and their counterattack began.

Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, the solid shells fired from the heights seemed to be overwhelmingly smashing towards the artillery array of the Shenji Battalion.

Their more than 100 Shenwei generals first fired one cannon at once, and then fired more than ten artillery pieces round by round to relieve the heat dissipation pressure of the artillery.

Zhu Zilong stood in the rear, carefully observing these, thinking that Houjin's improved artillery seemed to be only in distance, but in fact, it had not changed much.

As far as the weight of the gun is concerned, even if there is a reduction, it is extremely limited.

The heavy solid iron ball that came from Houjin's side bounced inside and outside the artillery array, so that the gunners of the Shenji Battalion couldn't lift their heads.

With such fierce artillery fire, even if Daming prepared a mud bag mound here, it was inevitable that someone would be hit.

From time to time, a very small number of unlucky people will roll into pools of blood, screaming miserably, and turning into broken limbs. The Ming soldiers who were so frightened that they covered their ears and screamed loudly, except for the soldiers of the Tianxiong Army and the Zhu Family Army.

Solid shells seem to spin slowly, but that's just an illusion when you see the fan spinning with the naked eye.

Once hit, the human body wants to react, but it is often too late. At least they will break their hands and feet, and at worst, they will be hung up on the spot.

Countless shells made the position of the Shenji Battalion, coupled with the smoke of artillery, immediately seem to have become a refugee camp.

The commander of the artillery team of the Shenji Battalion was frightened, and roared for the artillery array to return fire.

It's just that when the rest of the gunners were busy, when they were shelling on the opposite side, it was already a mess. Coupled with the attack distance from the bottom up, it is really a short attack on the other's length, how can it be as desired?

Moreover, Zhu Zilong also found it during his observation.

Not counting the fact that it is a surprise attack on the flank now, even if it is a normal time to play. The gunner reloading speed of the Da Ming Shen Machine Battalion is not as good as that of the Houjin artillery.

Hehe, there is really a feeling of state-owned enterprises eating a big pot of rice, compared with private enterprises!

What's even worse is that the follow-up artillery of the Qing army has been continuously pulled, and the number of their Shenwei general cannons has gradually increased. Moreover, on the first hill, and Hauge's artillery was not launched, this is really a painful comparison.

gave Zhu Zilong the feeling that it was better like seeing it.

Gunpowder was invented in China, but it was carried forward in the hands of outsiders. That feeling of speechlessness!

Houjin rounded out round after round of artillery bombardment, and the round firing made the heat dissipation distance of their guns shorter, and it seemed that the bombardment was continuous, and the cannonballs rained down on the front, right, or center of the artillery array of the Shenji Battalion.

At this time, the gunners of the Shenji Battalion lost the ability to counterattack, and they scattered in all directions, and collapsed.

Morale is getting low!

Seeing Daming's Shenji Battalion, he was so suppressed that he couldn't raise his head, Kong Youde on the opposite mountain was satisfied, and laughed loudly: "Good fight!" Well played! ”

On the third mountain, Wu Sangui and a general of the Ming Dynasty accompanied Daishan to garrison here. The face is sometimes smiling, sometimes dignified, sometimes tangled, I don't know what I am thinking.

Kong Youde has been studying with pure firearms over the years, which is not as good as Zhu Zilong's opening, but it can be said that the development of local science and technology is a brick and a mud, and it is created by himself.

The gunner of the Uzhenha Chao Battalion next to him desperately brushed his chamber and reloaded his ammunition after the shelling. The same is to go in order!

There are perfect observation hands, loaders, and rippers, and they use the same cotton powder packs as the Shenji Battalion.

They observe their hands, and they also have clairvoyant mirrors, although there are few, but many of them are skillful.

If you don't get good results after surrendering, you will probably be used as cannon fodder. This is also the motivation to force Liangshan!

All of them worked very hard, especially the foreign gunners and technicians, who fought quickly and accurately. Not to mention the comparison of the number of artillery, it is the training level of the two sides, and the gunners of the Shenji Battalion are not the opponents of their surrendered army.

And the Da Ming Shen Machine Battalion, because the artillery has not kept up with the times many times, and when training in peacetime, it is also delayed. In addition, the artillery range was insufficient, and it was only possible to watch the enemy shelling. But there is no way to fight back!

An hour later.

The cannon fire on the opposite side finally stopped for a while, but only a few minutes later.

In Kong Youde's laughter, another round of more than 20 cannons, with the sound of thunderbolts, spewed blazing flames in front of him in turn.

Shells rained down, and the vibration of the heavy solid iron ball seemed to tear people's hearts and lungs.

The Shenji Battalion, which finally came back to its senses, had no time to prepare its position, and ushered in a second round of strikes.

Rumble! Rumble! Rumble! Rumble! Rumble! Rumble! Rumble! Rumble! Rumble! Rumble! Rumble! Rumble!

The Da Ming Shen Machine Battalion could only watch the other party firing the cannon, and there was no power to fight back.

The Qing artillery came in waves, and the ground seemed to be shaking all the time. The sound of bombardment and shells falling to the ground was endless, and many solid iron balls jumped and rolled in the forward position of the Ming army, between the earththen cart and the bamboo basket.

Although the gunners of the Daming Shen Machine Battalion hid closely behind earthen baskets or earthen cart sacks, the large number of enemy solid shells still allowed them to hide, killing and wounding many people.

The number of damaged old artillery of the Ming Dynasty also increased rapidly, which made the Ming gunners angry, but they were helpless.

The sack basket can only alleviate the casualties and the bouncing distance of the shells when they land, but they cannot be completely avoided.

The Tartar artillery arrays on the opposite bank seemed to be constantly firing, and they divided the artillery into several rounds of bombardment, even if only a third of the actual number of artillery was fired. But after many rounds, when it was the turn again, the previous artillery had already dissipated the heat, and it could be fired again, creating the illusion that their artillery always seemed to have no need to stop.

It wasn't until the flag on the mountain lit up that Kong Youde laughed and made the artillery team stop dismounting.

However, it is also at this time.

When the generals and Hong Chengchou had black and iron faces, Zhu Zilong raised his head and heard the secret signal from the giant eagle in the sky, as well as the back of the army. Zhu Jiajun's Shandong artillery team, the figure that came slowly.

As a result, the corners of Zhu Zilong's mouth quietly bent into a sinister arc!
