"Your Majesty! This is unpredictable......"

In the Heart Cultivation Palace, Zhang Tingyu kowtowed and shouted, looking extremely frightened

"I don't want to go, but I'm full of ...... In short, I know it's dangerous, but I have to do it! ”

Yong is like a mud tire bodhisattva, responding mechanically on the dragon chair.

This was the first time he had left Beijing since he ascended the throne for ten years, and under such circumstances, of course, he was 120,000 unwilling. The days seemed to go back to when he first ascended the throne, and he longed for his ass to stick to the dragon chair in the Forbidden City, and he didn't move for twelve hours, always feeling that once he got up and moved, that person would be gone.

But he had to move, and after the rebellion of the Shandong Zhili Sect and bandits, another disaster was coming. Two or three months ago, there were red-clothed soldiers in Qinghai, or cavalry! Together with Dzungaria, he attacked the Mongolian tribes in Qinghai, and the news only now came back.

Hearing this, Yongzheng chewed a small half bottle of pill before he fell. Nanban out of Sichuan all the way into the horse, has been grinding in Hanzhong, engaged in half-baked is the Ming plank road, secretly crossing Chen Cang! Directly from Sichuan north out of Qinghai, with the Junggar line......

Originally, for the Mongol princes in the southern desert and the northern part of the desert, the southern barbarians were too far apart, and the Qing Dynasty firmly controlled the north on the 1st. Lost the south, the pain is Manchurian, Mongolia does not feel anything.

But now the Southern Barbarians are on the line with Dzungaria, and are attacking Qinghai and Shuote Mongolia, which makes Monan and Northern Mongolia anxious. This has nothing to do with the entrance area, although the former Lazang Khan has been defeated, and the Qing Dynasty directly controls Tibet, but the connection between Heshute Mongolia and Tibet is still close. After the Dzungar Mongols conquered the Heshute Mongols, they were determined to re-enter Tibet, and with the help of the Southern Barbarians, the prospect of the Yellow Sect Holy Land being controlled by the Dzungars was almost a foregone conclusion.

Mongolia is anxious about faith, and Yongzheng is anxious about swords and guns. Nanban borrowed the strength of Dzungaria, firearms and cavalry shooting together, do you want to live when you are full?

Whether it was to appease the Mongol mood or to raise the Mongol soldiers and horses, he had to personally go out and patrol the outside of the Saiwai.

Zhang Tingyu has too many unfinished words, Yongzheng can hear it, this Beijing city is like moving the butt blocked in the crater, and he doesn't know what catastrophe to spew out of the earth.

But does he have a choice? No!

That Li was so ruthless, he spread hundreds of thousands of horses along the river, almost all of them had the potential to destroy the country, and secretly came from the west with a heavy yin hand, that was his elite army. The Nanban newspaper said that "first the south and then the north, from the west to the east", it turned out to be like this!

Yongzheng groaned secretly, and waved his hand to Zhang Tingyu, who was still going to be invited, and said, "I have recruited a credible person by my side, so don't worry too much." As for here in the capital, I have appointed Hongli to supervise the country, and you are in charge of the capital, and the Admiral of the Nine Gates is also taken over by you, can I believe you? ”

In addition to Li Wei in Hanchen, Zhang Tingyu is Yongzheng's most trusted entry. At that time, the Qingxi Book House in Changchun Garden was shocked, and Yongzheng relied on Long Keduo and Zhang Tingyu to get the throne. In the past ten years, Yongzheng has belittled Long Keduo, but he has been very kind to Zhang Tingyu, and because Zhang Tingyu abides by his duty and has never been self-conscious.

This time, Yongzheng broke through the wilderness and hunted in the north, and the responsibility of stabilizing the capital was handed over to Zhang Tingyu, which was the only choice. Not only that, Yongzheng also pulled out most of the princes of the clan and the important ministers, just for fear that the capital would take advantage of the chaos. and then brought out the crown prince Hongli, who everyone knows, and did not give the prince the real position, but entrusted the task of supervising the country and used it to town the platform, this arrangement Yongzheng felt that it was quite safe.

Zhang Tingyu sobbed: "If the minister fails the emperor's entrustment, he will die a good death!" ”

In the middle hall full of knowledge, he actually learned to enter the market and swore by the general gambling curse, which shows the eagerness of his heart, which makes Yongzheng's heart rise with a slight warmth.

If you want to be faithful, you have to give meat to eat, although Yongzheng is mean, he still understands this truth. Zhang Tingyu has been the ultimate in Wenchen, there is no way to rise, Uncle Hou is also a reward he deserves, it is of little significance, but Yongzheng knows Zhang Tingyu's heart and encourages: "Do it well!" I promise you to enjoy the glory of the temple! ”…,

Sure enough, Zhang Tingyu shook his head for a moment, and then threw himself on the ground, kowtowing again and again, this is a privilege that is difficult for Hanchen to enjoy in the Qing Dynasty, he really wants to get it, the first one in the Qing Dynasty!

Yongzheng is still explaining: "Jiang Tingxi is powerful in Anhui Pingjiao bandits, available, urgently summoned to Beijing, I want to mention it in person, in addition, ......"

He ordered a few Hanchens in a row, which made Zhang Tingyu panic again, what would he think of using Hanchen so much?

Yongzheng doesn't care anymore, what does Manjin think? When the country is in trouble, can you still count on them? His trip to Beijing this time is equivalent to a national disaster, if he doesn't promote the Hanchen who wants to be a slave and can't, take care of his dragon chair, when he is outside, can the capital be stable? Didn't the first emperor Kangxi also rely on Han Chen to suppress the Manchu clan nobles who clamped down on the imperial power?

Not to mention the dragon chair, even if it is the matter of the north-south peace talks, he also has to rely on Hanchen to handle it. Pick and choose, and Sun Jiagan, who went to Nanban to ask for Yanxin and other prisoners, can be used, and if you want to send a full entry, how can you talk about things?

Zhang Tingyu was stunned by the huge painting cake of "Worthy of the Taimiao", and his mind turned to how to stabilize the capital, and he didn't think about it anymore.

In Luling, Jiangxi, in the wilderness west of the city, looking at the Xishan Camp Manchu Barracks lined up as a wide horizontal formation and approaching the Sixth Division step by step, Pei Mingji, who was looking at the battlefield from a high place in Luling City, said: "I'm curious, these are full of people, what are I thinking about at this time." ”

Tong Jing, the commander of the 40th Division, has also improved a lot of injuries, and has been able to go out for activities, accompanying Pei Mingji, hearing this, he said with a smile: "I gambled on my own consolation silver, these are full of bitterness, scolding them for the White Spoon Emperor, look, it stopped at seventy steps, but the Han military camp stopped at fifty steps......"

Pei Mingji shook his head: "I bet on my reward for this battle, I don't believe they will scold." Xibao knew that it was the Sixth Division in person, and he also knew the origin of the Sixth Division. He will definitely cheer up the Manchu military camp and say that on the opposite side is the Han army Qijin, which is one level lower than them, and these Manchu will definitely look down on their opponents. ”

It is not clear who will win and who will lose this bet, at this time, the Sixth Division, up to Gui Zhen and down to the little lieutenant, facing an opponent almost twice as large as themselves, but they are all full of contempt.

"We are the 6th Praetorian Division! There are only eight Praetorian Guard divisions in the country, and we are the first! Raise your head, straighten your back, and aim your gun at those full in! ”

"Those guys on the other side will kneel down and fight thousands on weekdays, and twice as much is meat!"

"We're no longer the flag of the Han Army! We are Shi Lu in, Qiongzhou in! The household registration is clearly written, we are Hanjin! The one who oppressed us in the past and coerced our ancestors to do evil together is the one on the other side! ”

The officers encouraged the soldiers, and when the opponent's heavy horizontal formation, which consisted of three large arrays, each arrayed with more than a dozen small horizontal formations, and was two miles wide, stopped, and the front line was a full seventy or eighty paces away from their side, the officers and men of the Sixth Guard Division were even more energetic.

The gunfire converged into a huge wave of sound, erupting with the smoke of gunpowder, pulling out a long dragon of sound and light that was nearly two miles long.

The scattered red-clothed soldiers fell to the ground, the others turned a blind eye, and the ones behind directly crossed the comrades who did not know life and death, and the queue advanced steadily and neatly on the 1st.

Shi Liha, the left-wing president of the Manchu military camp, shook his head helplessly, seventy steps is too far, even if you use the Nanban four-year style that you can get through various means, seventy steps is only two percent of the head, not to mention the Beijing Bureau, even if you hit it, it is just a small wound.

But what can be done? The training standard of the Xishan camp was originally the separation of the flag and the Han. Even if you choose the most honest and obedient flag, the Han military camp's set of training methods cannot be used in the Manchu military camp. The whip and stick were replaced with strips, and the head and face were replaced by the back and buttocks.

The Spanish instructor was blinded in the Manchurian military camp, and it was only thanks to Yongzheng's personal interrogation and forced pressure that he could learn all the tactics. And in order to make the Manchu military camp look decent, the Spanish instructors and their leading officers can only discount the combat skills of the Han military camp. …,

The Han barracks demanded fifty paces to shoot, and the Manchu barracks were seventy paces. The Han army camp marched eighty steps a minute, and the full army camp was seventy steps. The Han barracks carried 60 rounds of ammunition, and the Manchu barracks carried 70 rounds of ammunition...... Wait, why is the Manchu military camp here stronger than the Han military camp? Because it is not a Han military camp of the bayonet team, it also has to carry a waist knife. And the Manchu military camp is afraid of the waist knife, wearing a bayonet with the handle directly inserted into the barrel, this thing is light, and there is not much to compare with the red-clothed soldiers with bayonets, with more ammunition and comfortable.

The bigger difference is that the Han military camp can achieve a salvo of four rows of queues every two rows, but a full military camp cannot, and it must be rotated in rows. Because when firing a salvo, the gunfire in the rear row will always occasionally hurt the front row, and the full army camp will not be able to receive training and will be killed and wounded, the grassroots army will strongly resist the salvo combat method of the Spanish instructors......

The Spanish instructor felt that the full military camp was simply 30,000 straw bales, but in the eyes of Yongzheng and even other people, it was already amazing that the flag could also train the firearms army. And...... The queue of the full military camp is much more neat than that of the Han military camp.

After Shi Liha shook his head, he listened to the tide of guns and the turn of the Dao, and his heart gradually pulled up again. The opposite side is also a flag, and the horizontal formation is still so thin, there are only two rows! It's hard to stop such a neat volley, they're here to die, right?

Of course, Shi Liha could not have imagined that after the Sixth Division faced off with Britain in Burma, it summed up the experience that two rows of horizontal formations were better than three rows. Not only did two rows spread the fire, but they were also more effective when firing a salvo than a three-row salvo. When Bi Jing fired a salvo in three rows, the posture of the two rows of squatting and bending the waist was very uncomfortable, and the gunpowder smoke of the three rows of salvos was too large, and the accuracy was not as good as the two rows.

The drums beat unhurriedly and slowly, and the pace of the Sixth Praetorian Division was still so calm, compared with the battle of Burma, the guns and bullets of the Qing soldiers on the opposite side were simply drizzle. From time to time, comrades-in-arms fell on the left and right, and the Burmese meeting fell layer by layer.

Is the redcoat soldier on the opposite side really in? I'm afraid it's a brainless mechanism, right?

The hearts of the officers and men of the Manchu barracks had begun to tingle, and they had already taken fifty paces, and the muzzles of their guns were pointed at them, and they could almost aim at whoever was hitting whom, but they still did not stop. I've never seen such a stupid soldier under the ground.

By the time the horizontal formation of the Sixth Division had advanced to about forty paces, the four rows of the full barracks had already rotated for one and a half rounds. In the thin two rows of horizontal formations, when the muzzles of the guns were pointed at the same time, there was a laugh in the barracks, and I don't know how many people I would be injured.

Fluffy ......

Even the war horses that were accustomed to hearing the sound of guns and cannons in the Xishan camp were startled by this huge roar, and Shi Liha fell off the horse, not only did the guards not come to help, but he did not come back to his senses.

How can it be?

No more than 2,000 muskets, how could they make such a loud noise?

The officers and soldiers of the Manchu barracks also wanted to ask why, but many of them had no chance, they had turned into corpses, and they were falling to the ground in a daze.

The 6th Division was ashamed that they had opened fire forty paces away. During the attack on Shalian, Britain also attacked, and the 103rd Division of the Yingyang Army actually resisted the guns of the British soldiers, put on the bayonet, and directly approached to 15 or 6 paces to shoot, and then held the bayonet, and directly rushed up to the opponent and overturned the opponent.

This is Gui Zhen's arrangement, he feels that forty steps is enough, and the Manjun camp is not worth taking too seriously.

More than 2,000 rounds of lead bullets wiped out more than half of the front row of the Manchurian barracks, and in an instant, the first of the three large arrays in the Manchurian barracks fell into a state of almost mass coma.

"The first row is grouped into the back row, and the three rows rotate! Whoever retreats kills whom! ”

Shi Liha came to his senses and hissed and shouted, and the order was quickly conveyed by the banner to the battalions under his wing.

The blood of the officers and soldiers of the Manchurian battalion in front of them almost rushed to their feet, and they were numb from the cold. ..., where have they seen such a battle? Before, the Han military camp was only attacking the city, and there was no battle. I heard that the red-clothed soldiers can force up with the muzzle of the gun, and sweep the layer by row of guns, but everyone is not serious, and now they have experienced it personally, even if they have been trained in military law for many years, they have been dispelled by panic.

The whining horn sounded, and the general's whip was drawn without sparing, and the military orders emphasized by Xibao and Shi Liha before were finally remembered. The queue in the front row of the full military camp was like a wind blowing through the forest, and after swaying for a while, it actually regained its calm.

"Yo ho, that's really underestimated......"

Gui Zhen scratched his nose indifferently, he had to be serious.

"Brothers, take out your skills and let those people take a good look, why are we called Praetorian Guards!"

The officers continued to boost morale, and the hands of the soldiers of the 6th Division barely trembled, and they reloaded smoothly. In the barracks on the other side, the soldiers were crazy one by one, poking the stomachs all over the place, spilling gunpowder on the ground, forgetting to cover the medicine pool, all kinds of situations, and lying on the ground with a thousand crispy ouches holding their stomachs, but there were no gunshots on the other side.

There was another burst of shocking gunfire, and the two sides fired almost at the same time, but the full barracks were fired in a single row, while the Sixth Division still fired in two rows of volleys, and the number of servants on both sides was directly proportional to the size of the gunfire.

The first large array rotated for less than three minutes, and it was difficult for the Manchu military camp to hold on, and it broke and fled sporadically.

The full army camp was 10,000 on the left flank, and the actual number of soldiers participating in the battle was about 8,000, and the wilderness where the troops could be placed was only two or three miles wide, and it was lined up in three large horizontal formations, a total of 12 rows, each row of 700 or so, and each large horizontal formation of 2,800 people. Four rows rotated, each firing 700 buckshots, seven rounds per minute, or 4,900 rounds, with an average of less than two rounds per minute per rate of incidence.

The Sixth Division, on the other hand, had only more than 5,000 enters, arranged in two battle lines, each with two rows, and 1,200 per platoon, excluding the skirmishers. In the battle of Burma, although the division suffered heavy losses, the quality of the surviving veterans was extremely high, and the recruits brought with it soon became veterans, and the rate of fire of four rounds per minute was already a passing line.

The Sixth Division's salvo was 2,400 rounds each time, more than three times the full barracks, and nearly 10,000 rounds per minute were fired at a rate of four shots. When facing the two large horizontal formations, the number of entries was almost equal, but the firepower of the Sixth Division was twice that of the full barracks.

That's the advantage of a two-row volley against a four-row rotation.

Coupled with the difference in the psychological quality of the soldiers and the quality of the flintlock pistol, the shooting accuracy of the Sixth Division was much higher than that of the Manchu barracks, and even if there was only a 10% hit rate, in these two minutes, it could theoretically defeat 2,000 soldiers, which was enough to wipe out the first line of the Manchu barracks. Of course, the side also continues to produce casualties, and there is a common phenomenon of repeated targeting, and the actual results will not exceed 1,000.

This was enough to make the first horizontal formation of the Manchu military camp collapse, to be honest, Gui Zhen felt that the Manchu military camp could still last two minutes, whether it was training their white spoon instructors, or commanding their white spoon officers, and even the soldiers themselves, they were already proud enough. This kind of quality, thrown into the battlefield of Burma, can still be compared with the servant armies of Siam, Annam, and Japan.

Then Gui Zhen felt that he had overestimated the full military camp, and the first array that fled collapsed the second array, bringing out huge ripples and wrapping around the third array. The generals were furious and tried to drive the rebellious army back, but to no avail. Some soldiers drew their swords and slashed at the deserters, but they were swarmed by the angry deserters, greeted with bayonets on the butts of their guns, and instantly drowned in the tide.

"Bayonet-up!"

Gui Zhen secretly scolded that there was really no seed, and there was no chance to train the recruits to shoot, so he kept talking and hurriedly gave the order to pursue with a bayonet.

Seeing that the Sixth Division was like a duck, driving the full army camp all over the mountains and running around, in Luling City, Pei Mingji secretly said that it was not good, and he was afraid that his bet would be lost. Look at this full barracks, the momentum was quite strong when the horizontal team advanced before, but when it turned out, it couldn't be carried for two or three minutes.

"I don't know what happened to Chen Tingzhi's side, now it seems that it's time to close the net."

Fortunately, Tong Jing didn't think about any bets, but was eager to counterattack.

"It depends on the movements of the Han military camp, that old man's bones are quite hard, and there are more than 10,000 people in the Han military camp."

Pei Mingji was not so optimistic, Jia Hao did not give him the task of eating the entire Xishan camp, Bi Jing, the governor of Jiangxi, has limited strength, and it is a great achievement to be able to guard the bottom of the bag. This is Jiangxi, not Hubei, and he doesn't have the luck of General Xie Shen. The Eagle Yang Army is attacking Nanchang, once Nanchang is taken and the big mouth of the bag is sealed, the end of the Xishan camp will come.

Pei Mingji could never have imagined that he was about to get a strong reinforcement, and his own reputation was about to rise and become alongside Xie Dingbei.
