After receiving the order, the cavalry artillery battalion immediately pulled up artillery and artillery shells, and under the cover of gunsmoke, detoured from the east flank and penetrated directly into the eastern rear of the Qing army.

At this time, the breeze blew lightly, and the smoke that permeated the battlefield was rolled up and brought to an unknown place, and the scene on the battlefield was like a girl who ripped off the light veil, and saw her face clearly.

However, the truth is not so poetic and wonderful, I saw that on the battlefield, there were corpses and blood all the way, there were horses, people, wailing Qing soldiers, and wandering horses.

Some of the soldiers were trampled into meat sauce, some of the soldiers were trampled to the ground, and some of the soldiers lay at the feet of the pikemen, and their heads were trampled by the pikemen.

Some fell to the ground on their backs, some lay on the ground and couldn't see clearly, and some curled up on the ground and obviously struggled before they died.

Each has its own way of dying, and each has its own characteristics.

Is...... The same bullet makes a hundred kinds of death.

"This ...... This...... This ...... "a flag, a whole flag, just gone, Azig's face suddenly turned pale, he rubbed his eyes hard in disbelief, and when he rubbed his eyes so painfully, he looked ahead again, the scene still hasn't changed, it's not an illusion!

Azig immediately panicked, this time he entered the customs to plunder wealth, people and animals, and this time he lost 7,500 children of the Eight Banners, and the loss can be described as extremely heavy, even if he plundered hundreds of thousands of Han people back to Liaodong as slaves, it may not be able to make up for this loss, and the children of the Eight Banners are too few after all.

What happens when I go back?

"Big brother, what should I do?" Azig looked at the pale-faced Abatai, who was already panicking. Abatai's face was extremely pale, he looked at Zhao Yan on the command vehicle in the distance, and said in a deep voice: "The Ming people have this army, and in the future, our Eight Banners will not talk about the southern sweep, but whether we can occupy Liaodong is a big problem." ”

"The only way now ......"

"What's the solution?" Azig asked.

"The only way now is to bombard that general surnamed Zhao with a cannon, and we may be rewarded when we go back." Abatai pointed to Zhao Yan in the command car.

"But the artillery is still behind." Azig said in embarrassment, the Eight Banners entered the pass and plundered, naturally they had to bring artillery, although they did not completely rely on artillery when attacking the city, but artillery occupied an important position in the siege.

However, the Hongyi cannon that Kong Youde brought to the Manchu Qing was too heavy, so it was pulled behind. And although they grabbed more than a dozen artillery pieces for defending the city in Yanqing, the range was too short, Zhao Yan's command platform was at least 600 meters away from them, not to mention whether those shells could shoot so far, the hit rate was a big problem.

"How long will it take?" Abatai asked, and Azig hurriedly asked the others.

"It will take half an hour at the earliest to pull the cannon to the front." A Han general said that it was the artillery team he led.

"Two quarters of an hour, I'll only give you two quarters of an hour, and if you can't pull it in two quarters of an hour, I'll cut off your head." Azig shouted sharply at the Han general.

The Han general's face was bitter, but he didn't dare to raise objections, so he had to make a promise, and led people to urge the artillery team in the early stage, but he was thinking about various thoughts in his heart.

The Hongyi cannon weighs thousands of pounds, and half an hour is too little time, let alone two quarters of an hour? Even if the gods help, it is impossible to pull to the front line in two quarters of an hour. The general was annoyed in his heart, why didn't he say an hour just now? [***] damn it. These Liaodong savages simply don't treat the Han people as human beings.

If the cannon can't pull the front line within a quarter of an hour, it will definitely be cut off, thinking of this, the general's heart suddenly became ruthless, and a bold idea appeared in his mind - rebellion!

The Han general galloped towards the rear of the Qing army, and after a quarter of an hour, he succeeded in meeting the artillery team he led, all of whom were captured Han Chinese, a total of about 500 people, some of them gunners, some of them miscellaneous soldiers.

The general immediately ordered his own soldiers to cut down the Qing soldiers in the artillery team, and after a sneak attack, more than a dozen Qing soldiers in the artillery team were immediately beheaded.

"Brothers, listen to me." The general climbed on a rock and shouted, and all five hundred artillerymen looked at him, "The Tartars have been defeated at the front, and we must pull the artillery to the front line in two quarters of an hour, otherwise we will all be beheaded." ”

With a "coax...... sound, the 500 artillerymen suddenly made an uproar. In the excitement of the crowd, the Han general shouted: "This is simply deliberately asking for our lives, the Tartars don't treat us Han people as human beings at all, we don't work hard for the Tartars, we are Han people, we will always be Han people, our ancestors, watching us from the sky......"

"Yes, we don't die for the Tartars, kill the Tartars, we will kill the Tartars......" shouted in unison of five hundred Han soldiers, who had no choice at the moment, because the Manchus wanted them to complete an impossible task and wanted to kill them.

They didn't know that the Manchus weren't trying to kill everyone, but the Han general had succeeded in mobilizing the soldiers, and they mounted their horses and hid among the mountains, waiting for an opportunity to escape, or kill the Qing soldiers, and they had to have something to do with them if they wanted to return to the Ming Dynasty.

Behind is Xianzhuang, where the Qing soldiers hoarded the spoils of war, and there were Qing soldiers to defend, and they could only be sent to death in the past.

Therefore, it is undoubtedly the best choice to hide and see the situation, as for those cannons, they pulled out all the shell fuses before leaving, for fear that they would be discovered by the Qing soldiers if they blew up these cannons.

......"It may really take half an hour for the artillery team to arrive, and we have to drag it out for half an hour. Abatai said to Azig after the Han general left.

"How do you drag it?" Azig was completely panicked at this point.

“…… Divide the cattle to continue the attack. Abatai held back for a long time, and said the way he thought of, this is also the only way, if you don't attack, the other party may attack, or retreat, but the other party's attack may be greater, because the morale of the Qing army is obviously at a disadvantage.

And the spoils of war everywhere, it is impossible for the Ming army to give up.

The Qing army up and down saw the tragic scene of the battlefield, they were all frightened, inlaid with white flags and said that they would be destroyed, and the destruction was only in an instant, and when they looked at the Denglai army, there was a trace of fear in their eyes, and they no longer had their usual pride.

The Denglai army is more firm in their beliefs, Jiannu is indeed not the rumored invincible, because the officialdom is unbearable [***], and the military generals do not practice military affairs and do not think about serving the country.

"If you want to rebuild the glorious Ming Empire, you must obey the general, the general will let everyone have food, will let everyone have clothes to wear, will let everyone have a lesson when they are young, support when they are old, and have a doctor when they are sick. The general will eradicate all the decay of the empire, will lead us to defend our homeland, lead us to destroy all barbarian countries, let the moon flag fly all over the world, and establish the global empire of the Ming Dynasty. A small soldier glanced back at Zhao Yan on the command platform, and thought silently in his heart, holding the spear in his hand firmly, Jian Nu didn't want to pass in front of him.

As the backbone of the army, the pikemen, their task is to protect the musketeers, artillery, and rocketeers, they are the most dangerous class of troops besides the cavalry, and they are also one of the most glorious classes.

Every soldier's loyalty to Zhao Yan had reached the point of fanaticism. They have been brainwashed for a long time, but what Zhao Yan promised, he has done a lot, and he is not deceiving them.

In addition to being loyal to Zhao Yan personally, they were also loyal to the Ming Empire. But in their minds, Zhao Yan represents the hope of the empire.

Although Zhao Yan advocated loyalty to him personally, he also demanded that soldiers should be loyal to the country and the nation, and it is not a good thing for soldiers to be loyal to individuals, because individuals cannot survive forever, and as long as there are loyal soldiers, the country may always be maintained.

Yuan Shikai is a typical example of failure, he knows how to seize opportunities, he knows how to buy people's hearts, he overthrew the Qing Dynasty, but his Beiyang Army is only his personal, but not loyal to the Republic of China, and he himself is not loyal to the Republic of China, and constantly uses money to win people's hearts, and finally let his subordinates have endless **, after Yuan Shikai's death, the Beiyang Army was divided. The reason is still the lack of faith, Yuan Shikai himself has no faith, he is an old bureaucrat, in his eyes only money, official position, butcher's knife three magic weapons, obedient to give money to officials, disobedient eat knives.

Zhao Yan also has these three magic weapons, faith makes people obedient, disobedient labor reform, meritorious service gives money to promotion, and corruption and bribery eat knives.

…… Azig weighed it for a long time, and finally chose to follow Abatai's advice and let the bulls attack one after another, so as to delay time.

Only by killing the general, surnamed Zhao, could they go back without punishment.

The first to act as cannon fodder was the Yan Duo Division, who had just surrendered, the Qing soldiers supervised the battle in the back, and the three thousand Yan Duo soldiers moved forward with trembling legs under the persecution of the Qing soldiers.

As soon as they entered the firing range, the musketeers fired again, shooting those unarmored Yan Duobu soldiers one hundred and fifty meters away, Yan Duo's soldiers were so frightened that they turned around and ran, but the very Manchu prison army moved their knives, and cut off more than a dozen heads, Yan Duobu was forced to be helpless, some continued to move forward, and some simply started knives with the Qing soldiers, but they were quickly suppressed, and those who advanced were also shot by musketeers.

At this time, Azig called out another armor and charged the Denglai army. However, the charge of the 1,500 Qing soldiers was relatively loose and not in a dense formation.

One by one, they took out their bows and arrows, as if they were going to shoot them on horseback.

However, as soon as they entered the distance of one hundred and seventy meters, they were immediately attacked by the musketeers of the Dengzhou battalion and the Laizhou battalion, and although they were in a loose formation, they could not withstand the terrifying number of musketeers of the Denglai army.

Three thousand musketeers per battalion!

One barrage after another, the Jiala didn't even have a chance to get close to release the arrows, and was soon killed and wounded by the dense barrage, and then routed back.

Zhao Yan couldn't see it clearly on the command platform, so he frowned and said, "What is Jiannu doing?" Die? ”

"There will be a plan." Liu Heng judged.

"Plot?" Zhao Yan asked.

"At this moment, Jiannu should be delaying time by doing such a meaningless thing, but what they are planning is unknown." Liu Heng couldn't tell what the Qing soldiers were fighting in mind, but the intention of delaying time was clear at a glance.

"They stall for time, huh! It's a lot like. Zhao Yan thought for a while, and couldn't understand what the Qing army was doing with delaying time. Run away? It shouldn't be, the Qing army is not running like this if it wants to run.

Counterattack? Rounding the back? It is even more impossible, the passage to the west is arranged with scouts, and the main force of the Qing army is here, so it is impossible to go around behind the Denglai army under Zhao Yan's eyelids and launch an attack.

"What might they be waiting for." Liu Heng said.

"No matter what they are waiting for, the cavalry artillery battalion will carry out artillery shelling as soon as it enters the offensive position." Zhao Yan ordered.
