Chapter 540: I Can't Hold It
"Woo woo"
The desolate sound of the horn heralded the beginning of the general attack, and tens of thousands of Qing soldiers in blue armor and red and yellow armor rushed up from behind with a roar, and the sound of rumbling horses' hooves made the earthquake tremble.
"It's finally begun!"
"Huang Taiji finally can't help it?"
"It's finally here, we can retreat!"
Whether it is Wang Zhi, Dolgon, Azig or Dai Shan, they are all making an exclamation in their hearts, this is the last hole card of Huang Taiji, after dispatching the blue flag and the yellow flag, Huang Taiji can only use the yellow flag, and in fact, the main role of the yellow flag is to protect the emperor, so it can be said that Huang Taiji has used all his strength.
On the position of the Dahua Army in the two miles of Emperor Taiji, listening to the rumbling horses' hooves in the distance, Wang Zhi's face not only did not look nervous, but showed a relieved look, and he muttered: "Huang Taiji has finally revealed the last family background, since this is the case, we should also flop." ”
Speaking of this, Wang Zhi's voice became louder in an instant, and he shouted loudly: "Come on, order all the reserves to meet the enemy immediately!" ”
With Wang Zhi's order, the last three phalanxes that had been behind the big formation and watched the fierce battle for a long time began to move.
"All obey and stand up!"
"Whoa!"
Originally, in order to save physical strength, the sergeants who had been ordered to sit on the ground stood up in unison.
"Gun on the shoulder!"
"Whoa!"
The sound of neat guns colliding sounded in an instant!
"Dahua Army, forward!"
"Whoa, whoa, whoa"
More than fifteen thousand riflemen, who had been waiting impatiently, marched in order. Move forward under the command of the drumbeat.
Seeing that the infantry phalanx had moved forward and backward, Wang Zhi turned to a middle-aged general wearing black fish-scale armor behind him, and said with a smile: "General Qi, let your cavalry battalion watch the big drama for so long, it seems that you are already impatient, right?" ”
This middle-aged general is Qi Wuming, the original Lingshanwei's hundred households, and now that Pang Gang has become the emperor, his hundred households have also become guerrillas with the rising tide.
Facing the past, he was just an ordinary poor military household below him. Now that Wang Zhi, who has become his top boss, Qi Wuming smiled brightly, "Don't hide it from General Wang." The lowly post is a little anxious. ”
"Okay, since you're in a hurry, the official will start arranging work for you."
Wang Zhi pointed his hand and pointed to the place where the horse's hooves were rumbling in front of him and said to him, "General Wang." The Tartars have revealed the last of their families, and we can't hide them, it's time to fight them to the death. But most of us are foot soldiers, and there is only one battalion of cavalry, so it is a great loss to fight, and you have seen the battle just now, if it weren't for the brothers desperately resisting, the phalanx may have been broken. Therefore, the task of your cavalry battalion is to take advantage of the mobility of the cavalry and the superiority of our firearms to cause trouble for the Tartars on the periphery, and we must not let them attack us without distraction. Can you do it? ”
Qi Wuming patted his chest and said with a big grin: "No problem, our cavalry battalion is doing this, just take a look!" ”
Wang Zhi smiled with satisfaction: "That's good, you go!" ”
"Yes!"
After Qi Wuming gave Wang Zhi a military salute, he immediately jumped on his war horse and galloped forward.
Just when Huang Taiji and Wang Zhi were dispatching troops. Dorgon, who had been keeping an eye on the situation on the central battlefield, also sent a pre-agreed signal to Dordor, who had been in contact with him.
After receiving the signal, Duoduo, who knew about it, immediately led the main force of the white banner under his command to slowly retreat, leaving only a group of clothed minions and the vassals of the Mongolian Eight Banners in front of him to make contact with the Dahua army, on the other hand, the same was true on Dorgon's side, just like that, the changes in the two wings were quickly discovered by Wang Zhi.
"Hmm. What are Dorgon and the brothers Dordor doing? Do you want to retreat? ”
Wang Zhi's heart was puzzled, no matter how smart he was, he couldn't have predicted that Dolgon would release water so almost openly.
But if you don't understand it, don't think about it, Wang Zhi doesn't have much mood to guess Dolgon's moves, since the pressure on the two wings has suddenly decreased, then it is a good thing for the central battlefield, and it is even better news for Dahua's already slightly insufficient troops.
"Someone, you go and tell Dong Guo and order his artillery battalion to quickly turn the muzzle of the gun and support the robe on the central battlefield, where is the most dangerous time at the moment."
"Yes!"
After a while, the rumbling hooves of horses and the roaring of cannons rang out in the center of the battlefield, and more than 600 paces away from the front of the army formation, bursts of artillery sounded, and one after another flowering shells flew towards the center of the battlefield.
"Ahh
A Qing soldier was desperately urging his horse forward, and a large shrapnel exploded around him, and a large piece of shrapnel cut off half of his head, and the Qing soldier seemed to not know, and rode his horse for a while before falling off the horse.
At the same time, the three phalanxes of new personnel had also moved to the front, replacing the three battalions in front that had already suffered heavy casualties, and let them withdraw and rest after fighting for half a day.
"What, let's stand out? No, absolutely not, I want to avenge my dead brothers! ”
Wei Jiang, who had already killed the red-eyed, refused to retreat, and he was yelling at one of the lieutenants who came to replace him with wide eyes.
The adjutant general's face was grim, and he said mercilessly: "Lord Wei, this is Lord Wang's order, you have to listen to it, and if you don't listen to it, you have to listen, otherwise don't blame the official for enforcing battlefield discipline!" ”
Wei Jiang was stunned for a while, and he cried out loud: "Forty percent, my brothers are dead and injured, how should I explain to their families after I go back!" ”
Pang Gang from later generations has always done a good job of the work of the fallen soldiers, after the soldiers died in battle, his tablet can not only enter the martyr's shrine for worship, but also his family can also get a lot of compensation, as the chief officer of the soldier is to write a letter for the family of each fallen soldier.
In the battle of Shicai, the Fifth Army Corps under Wei Jiang participated in a total of three battalions of 15,000 people, and more than 6,000 people were killed, including three thousand generals and 14 hundred generals.
Looking at Wei Jiang, who was crying on the spot, the deputy general sighed helplessly, and made a color to the left and right, and finally the two personal soldiers stepped forward and dragged Wei Jiang down.
When Wei Jiang withdrew with the scarred soldiers of the three battalions, Hao Ge in front also commanded two flags and nearly 30,000 soldiers and horses to rush into the range of the rifle.
"Everyone, raise the gun in the front row, put it!"
"Bang Bang Bang"
Soon, deafening gunfire rang out again from the blood-soaked positions
The battlefield fell into a fierce and anxious stalemate, and the stalemate made Huang Taiji's heart slowly sink to the bottom.
In Huang Taiji's expectation, no matter how strong the newly established Dahua army is, it will never be the opponent of the Daqing Iron Cavalry in the field, and in the face of the swarming Daqing Iron Cavalry, even if they are not defeated at the touch of a button, but in the face of 100,000 rolling Daqing Iron Cavalry, they will definitely be defeated, and it is only a matter of time before they retreat to the camp.
But the fact was that Huang Taiji slapped him hard, and the military formation formed by Dahua's foot soldiers not only blocked the impact of the Daqing Iron Cavalry, but also beat them to heavy casualties, which shows that the cavalry and archery kung fu that Dahua has always been proud of has no upper hand in the face of Dahua's firearms.
The round face was full of solemnity, and the fat hands were tightly holding the reins of the horse, Huang Taiji hesitated, from where he was, he could see the battlefield a mile away with the naked eye, and groups of Manchu warriors charged desperately under the order of his eldest son Haoge, but were forced back by countless bullets. The vast majority of people were knocked to the ground by the merciless buckshot, and many rolled on the ground with wails and finally slowly waited for death.
Huang Taiji's heart slowly turned cold, because for the first time he could not see the hope of victory in the battle, and in the face of Dahua's sharp firearms, he was afraid.
"Do you want Hauge to fight again?" This is the most difficult problem for Huang Taiji at this moment.
Although Huang Taiji was very anxious, but the turning point on the battlefield was not transferred by human willpower, with the Dahua cavalry also joined the battlefield, Hauge, a new force, instead of achieving the expected effect, but fell into the scorching quagmire again. In particular, the addition of the Dahua cavalry made them miserable.
The Dahua cavalry, with their mobility not inferior to theirs, always fired their guns at a distance of more than 200 paces, and then quickly left, and then approached them to fire after loading their ammunition, so that the mobility of the Manchu cavalry could not be brought into full play.
And more importantly, the number of these cavalry is no longer dozens or hundreds of cavalry when they harassed in the past, but a full five or six thousand cavalry, so many people fired together, the lethality produced is amazing, often a round of guns down, the Qing army at least hundreds or even thousands of people have to fall.
The Manchus, who were full of self-belief and self-proclaimed Manchu warriors, were frightened, and this sentiment had even affected the large group of men and horses who were attacking the phalanx in front.
Hauge was also surprised to find that his command was not smooth, which was very rare for the Manchu army, which had always been strict in military discipline.
"Prince Su, we can't lay it like this, if we continue to fight like this, the foundation of our Manchurians will be broken!"
In front of Hauge, a Meljangjing was kneeling in front of him, pleading bitterly (to be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendation and monthly passes, and your support is my biggest motivation. )
