In the position of the Ming army, Hong Chengchou put down the clairvoyant mirror and said to Yang Guozhu and Li Fuming: "Two generals, start attacking the mountain!" ”

The two generals both clasped their fists and shouted: "The last general takes orders!" ”

Seeing that Yang Guozhu was about to leave, Wang Dou stopped him and said solemnly: "Yang Shuai, be careful!" ”

Yang Guozhu nodded heavily, and together with Li Fuming, he rode back to his Xuanfu military formation,

He ordered: "Queue up, each team is one foot eight feet apart!" ”

The sound of the horn sounded, and Yang Guozhu's mountain-attacking army slowly rose forward and backward, making the gap between each soldier and each team in the army formation more sparse. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Look at Li Fuming's side, the same is true.

Yang Guozhu took a deep breath and shouted: "Honk the horn and move forward!" ”

"Woo woo, woo woo, woo woo!"

Yang Guozhu's horn sounded in the military headquarters, and the tide-like men and horses slowly poured out of the Ming army's array, and Li Fuming's subordinates sounded the horn and traveled. They attacked different positions on the Loess Ridge on the left and on the right. Yang Guozhu's army, the main attack is the Qing army in the area of Niangniang Temple.

Seeing them pouring out of the military formation, all the soldiers of the Ming army who stayed in place were looking at them, and suddenly a tidal wave of shouts broke out in the Ming army: "Brother, come on!" ”

"Brother, give those tartars a little color!"

"Brothers of Xuanzhen and Shanxi Town, kill more Tartars!"

Zhao Rongsheng yelled: "Come on, brothers in Xuanzhen, let the Tartars look good!" ”

In a shocking shout, the army of the two towns came out of the big formation with high spirits, they held their heads high, took firm steps, and pressed towards the position of the Qing army.

Along with the position of the army in the second town, there are also a large number of mountain attacking equipment, as well as four car battalions. They were selected from Liaodong Town and various towns, and there were hundreds of large and small Buddha Lang machines and hundreds of sons. Capture cannons and other light small cannons. When approaching the wall, he provided fire support for Yang Guozhu's second division.

The army followed the direction of the Loess Ridge, wave after wave of men and horses. There were also countless equipment, chariots moving forward. Along the way, the hills are undulating, and the ground is mostly dry and hard loess. Cracked by the sun, only a few shallow thatchs can be seen from time to time.

Taking into account the artillery of the Qing army, the teams attacking the mountains were covered by chariots layer by layer, the chariots at the front. The baffles on the top are covered with thick quilts, and some are also covered with cowhide and iron sheets. The chariots in the back were also wrapped in thick bedding as much as possible.

Looking from the Loess Ridge, it can be clearly seen that with the undulating terrain, the red armor and banners of the Ming army are surging towards their side one after another.

On the platform of the East Ridge Building. A cold light shot in Dorgon's eyes. The Ming army is finally here.

Coincidentally, the Qing generals on the platform all came to the artillery positions arranged nearby. Looking at the black and heavy artillery on their side, and then looking at the Ming army array approaching at the bottom of the mountain, everyone had a cruel smile on their faces.

Shi Tingzhu laughed wildly: "I can finally give those Ming dogs a good look!" ”

Dorgon looked at the massive artillery emplacement with satisfaction. Thirty heavy artillery pieces were all fired with more than 10 pounds. And every artillery. Almost all of them can fight for three or four miles, waiting for the Ming army to attack. You can inflict serious damage on them.

At this time, the artillery array was full of gunners from the Qing army's Wuzhenha Chao Battalion, and many of the gunners were still Portuguese.

In that year, Kong Youde captured Dengzhou, which was the base for the Ming army to manufacture new artillery and train artillery, and there were nearly 100 Portuguese and other foreign gunners and craftsmen, as well as a large number of trained gunners, all of which were captured by the rebels. Therefore, the Qing army did not lack artillery technical strength, and it was even very powerful.

Although the commander of the Wuzhenha Super Artillery Battalion will be Kong Youde, the weekday affairs are also in charge of Kong Youde's generals Cao Shaozhong, Liu Chengzu and others. However, the specific command of the artillery battle was still commanded by Eduardo and other Franc officers, as well as those Franc soldiers who were captured together. …,

Subconsciously, everyone in the Qing Kingdom still thought that it was more appropriate for the pure Francophile to command the artillery battle, after all, the gunners of the Ming army were mostly trained by them back then.

Their artillery battalion also has a clairvoyant mirror, using moments, gauges and other equipment. Even some of the Hongyi cannons in Zhongling are still the artillery produced by the Bugarao Gun Factory in those years, and the gun body has the emblem of a shield and a sail.

The black artillery group pointed directly at the Ming army formation under the mountain, and the cattle pulling the artillery were concentrated at the back of the mountain range, and there was also a dense Qing army camp over there.

Looking at these heavy artillery, the commander of the North Korean army, the right council of the government, Kim Zidian, flashed a frightened look in his eyes. Seeing his expression, Dolgon was very satisfied, summoned the commander of the artillery battalion, Eduardo, and asked: "Dwarf Dejiala, can my Qing artillery give the Ming army the greatest damage?" ”

When Eduardo faced others, he always had a kind expression, whether it was his clothes, or the beard on his lips and temples, he was meticulously repaired. According to what he said, his ancestors were nobles, how could he not have the image and demeanor of nobles?

Eduardo was disgusted by the title of Dwarf, and his noble and allegorical name became a joke among these Oriental people. However, he still had a polite demeanor on his face, and he didn't seem to care.

Dolgon speaks Chinese, and Eduardo has been in Macau for many years, and is also quite enthusiastic about Chinese affairs, and the local language, of course, has long been mastered.

He bowed slightly and said, "Your Excellency, the cannon of the artillery battalion is already one thousand and five hundred yards...... No, it is positioned at three miles, and every twenty steps in the future, it is well marked. Especially at a distance of more than two miles, as long as the Ming army comes, whether it is the artillery of the main ridge or the artillery of the middle ridge, it can be shelled layer upon layer. Their artillery was four miles away, and the light artillery could not reach us, and the infantry had no ability to fight back, and under the bombardment of our artillery, they would certainly suffer serious casualties and deal a heavy blow to their morale. The closer the Ming army go, the greater their losses will be. ”

Seeing Dorgon's joyful expression, Eduardo said cautiously: "Of course, the terrain below the mountain also has disadvantages for us, that is, there are many hills and mountains. If their formations were hidden behind the hills, the artillery of our artillery battalion would pose little threat to them because of the slopes. If their military formation goes up the hills, the ricochets cannot be deployed, and the threat is just as small. Only when they are exposed to the Pingchuan area is the time when the artillery can exert its maximum power, and even a single shot can cause them more than a dozen casualties! ”

Dolgon said: "I have thought of this, but most of their military formations are exposed under the noses of my artillery battalion, right?" ”

Eduardo bowed and said, "Your Excellency, I am deeply amazed by your wisdom! ”

Dolgon laughed: "Dwarf Delga, you serve me well." In the coming day, I will enter the Central Plains in the Qing Dynasty, and you have made great contributions, maybe it is not difficult to be crowned a prince and a king. ”

Eduardo was disdainful: "Enter the Central Plains." Is it that easy to get into? Let's defeat these Ming people in front of you. ”

However, for him, both Ming and Qing people are heretics and evil spirits. The more you die, the better.

At the same time, his heart was pounding, his ancestors were only a baron, if he reached his own generation, he could really be crowned a king...... How high is that?

Although it is only a Tatar title, the West has always been curious about the East, but it does not care about Han Chinese and Tatars. For example, the yuan of the year. Isn't it also Tatar rule? Watch Marco Polo blow. Maybe one day, he will become a legend, and after returning to Europe, he will become the object of countless noble ladies and girls.

He bowed deeply to Dolgon: "By your good words, my noble Excellency, I will serve this empire loyally. ”

……

The artillery array of the Qing army, paying close attention to the approaching of the Ming army's large array, Eduardo. He also nervously devoted himself to serving the Qing Kingdom. …,

He was holding a clairvoyant. Looking at the various artillery markings under the mountain, the distance data of the Ming army was constantly reported, and finally, the chariot of the Ming army on the first floor passed by the stones piled up everywhere, and the markers had been sprinkled with lime there. It's three miles.

Seeing all the gunners in full formation, Eduardo took a deep breath. shouted loudly in strange Chinese: "The Ming army is a thousand paces away, shoot!" ”

Qing army positions. The same horn was used, and the sharp swan sound was blown, and immediately the thirty heavy guns in the Qing army's position, one by one, some gunners stepped forward and lit the fuse of each cannon with a long arquebus, and the fuse hissed and sparked, some burned fast, some burned slowly.

Finally......

The thunderbolt-like sound of artillery on the Loess Ridge was endless, and a large thick white smoke rose up, and one after another the cannonballs roared towards the Ming army's position.

The roar continued, and one shell after another shot shot at the hard ground, and then bounced up vigorously, desperately rushing forward.

Rumble!

A Ming army chariot was hit by a Qing army shell, and a 12-pound cannonball hit the baffle in front of the chariot. Even the thick quilt on the baffle was smashed into pieces, and the quilt became a flying cotton wool, and the baffle made of hardwood became a sharp wooden thorn with countless bursts of fire.

A few of the men who were pushing the cart rolled to the ground and howled, their blood flowing, their heads covered with spikes, and they regretted that they should not have coveted the silver and came to push the damned chariot.

There were a few more who followed, and Yang Guozhu, who was armed with a bird's gun, was hit, or was shot by sharp wooden thorns, or was hit by broken wooden blocks. They were dressed in cotton armor inlaid with iron leaves, and they were a little far away from the chariot, and if they were lucky, they would not be hit in the head or face, and the wooden thorns would not penetrate deep into their bodies, but they would also break out in a cold sweat all over their bodies.

There was only one warrior, who was struck in the lower abdomen by a long, thick wooden thorn, and stabbed deep into his body. In addition, the blood of those people spilled on his whole body, making his whole person look as if he had been soaked in blood water.

He was numb from pain, curled up on the ground, and spasmed violently.

One after another cannonballs whistled, due to the sparse array of the Ming army, coupled with the undulating terrain, many Qing artillery shells missed, or it was difficult to bounce. However, there were also some soldiers who were hit by the cannonballs that jumped and tumbled, and immediately broke their hands and feet.

In particular, a ten-pound cannonball happened to hit the new military camp of the Yijia Yang Guozhu Department, and the front of the marching pikemen soldiers.

The ground was hard and flat, and the cannonball fired two meters in front of the line of soldiers, and then, under the terrified gaze of the leader of the armor, jumped up and rushed straight towards his body.

The cannonball seemed to be slow and fast, and the armor commander subconsciously wanted to dodge, but the cannonball had already leaked out of his chest, with bloody blood, and in the crackling sound of broken bones, several soldiers behind him fell to the ground.

In this way, the power of this cannonball is not finished, after knocking down the sergeant in this armor, he also jumped and ran into the queue of the rear armor, and the sound of broken legs and bones sounded, breaking the foot bones of several soldiers alive......
