The dark and shiny barrel continued to spit out shells of different calibers at Yang Xingling, and the roar was one after another, and the soldiers and horses of Shi Tingzhu, Zu Zerun, Wu Shoujin and others had attacked Yang Xingling many times, and the tactics they adopted were artillery bombardment, and the infantry rushed!

The roar was like a thunderbolt on a sunny day, and the smoke of gunpowder was filled, and when the Qing army was shelling, the defenders on the mountain were not to be outdone, and fired their artillery one after another to return fire fiercely. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Because the artillery of the Han army was arranged more than a mile away, although the Jingbian Army's Franc machine could not hit it, the small mortar cannon of the Shenji Battalion and the Shenhuo Flying Crow could be bombarded as well, so the mortar artillery arranged on Yang Xingling returned fire from time to time, and also fired the Divine Fire Flying Crow at the position of the Eight Banners of the Han Dynasty.

Fu Yingchong supported Yang Xingling's thirty small mortar cannons, nearly 100 rounds of divine fire flying crows, and the soldiers of the Shenji Battalion liked and were best at bullying the weak and fearing the hard. Because the Qing army's Hongyi cannons did not pose much threat to the mountains, they came to life again, screaming and shooting poisonous smoke, ash bullets, and even solid iron balls down the mountain from time to time.

Although the mortars on the mountain belong to the small mortar cannons, in fact, the solid iron balls hit are only less than ten catties, and those large mortar cannons have always hit fifteen to twenty catties of big iron balls and big stone balls, and they bombarded them far away, which also made the Han Eight Banners under the mountain tremble.

In the mutual firing, they also achieved results, and there was a small mortar cannon, which shot a stone ball of about eight or nine catties, and successfully hit a shield car of the Han army's Zhengbai flag, and put down several Han soldiers near the shield car, frightening the surrounding Han troops to scatter.

In particular, when the mortar cannon fires poison bombs and ash shells, it is a great threat to the dense array, these poison smoke bombs do not need to hit a certain target, only need to aim at a certain range, after the poison bombs explode, the poisonous smoke can cause a panic in the Han army.

Therefore, Shi Tingzhu, Zu Zerun and others under the mountain, although they used dozens of Hongyi cannons to bombard Yang Xingling continuously, they did not pose much threat to the Jingbian army on the mountain, but on the contrary, the mortars of the mountain range, the divine fire flying crows, and successively achieved results.

A divine fire flying crow is even more blind cat encountering a dead mouse. happened to fall in the middle of a piece of Han artillery, blowing up several Han gunners to the ground.

At the same time, the rest of the gunners were on fire, screaming and scurrying around. The flames of the explosion also detonated the nearby gunpowder, causing even greater casualties, the wheels of the gun's gun carriage. It's all rolling out from afar.

In fact, this is a divine fire flying crow. Originally, it was going to shoot dozens of steps away from the right side of this artillery, but suddenly a gust of wind blew this flying crow back, and I can only sigh that these Han army flags are unlucky.

After another round of shelling. The Jingbian Army's rear camp, which was originally silent in Yang Xingling, seemed to come to life.

A large number of soldiers from the rear camp wearing hats and helmets and wearing red and black trim appeared from behind the earthen carts, as well as many soldiers with spears. From behind the mountain, go up the mountain and look down the mountain.

At the foot of the mountain, another wave of offensive of the Han Eight Banners began, and a large number of Han troops and Korean troops, under the cover of earthen carts and shield carts, approached like a tide.

In the sound of the shouting order, the soldiers of the Jingbian Army behind the earthen carts all held their bird guns tightly and set their bodies firmly on the earthen carts standing on the side. Everyone's expressions were a little dignified, because of the logistics supply in place, as well as the improvement of military discipline, these original Ming troops were all better than before in the Ming Dynasty. The combat effectiveness has increased a lot.

Compared with the Manmeng bow and arrow, in the face of these Han soldiers, the one-sided slaughter has passed, especially their birds. It also brought some casualties to the soldiers guarding the mountain one after another.

The fact that the two Tartar shells also threatened. Let the Jingbian army guarding the mountain hate it so much, but what if the two Tatar birds are threatened, as the Jingbian army, they will not be afraid of anyone!

On the way, the mortars and flying crows of the mountains caused some panic and casualties to the Han army's infantry formation, but they still forced up.

"Boom, boom!"

When the Qing army was about 100 steps away from the mountain defense line, on this side, many earth-wheeled vehicles were closely sandwiched, and the 55 small and medium-sized Franc machines of the Jingbian Army successively emitted a deafening explosion, and countless shotgun lead shots exploded.

It is impossible for their earthen carts to completely block the shotgun fire of the Jingbian army, and it is even more difficult for their shield carts to resist the bombardment of shotguns.

When the Qing army approached closer, the Jingbian army behind the earthchariot fired a fierce volley, and the Han army on that side also returned fire in the back row of the bunker, and the two sides were forced to shoot at each other within forty or fifty paces.

It is foreseeable that under various factors, in terms of shooting, the Han Eight Banners are either the opponents of the Jingbian Army, or the same is true for the Shangb-B Army.

Although they had more guns, they were shot and fell more often, and the gunners of the Jingbian Army desperately fired shotguns, and sure enough, before the gunners could engage in battle, they once again could not support it, and screamed defeat and retreated.

Looking at some of the groaning and wounded rear battalion sergeants carried down in front of him, Han Chao's face sank like water, and he ordered a first-class army spearmen to chase and fight, and the sharp swan sound sounded, and hundreds of first-class army spearmen, holding their spears, shouted and rushed down from the bottom of the mountain......

"It's all rubbish!"

Seeing that he had been defeated again, Shi Tingzhu's eyes were red, he had already gone crazy, how many Jingbian troops did Yang Xingling participate in the war at this time? Their army is less than a thousand, and the rest are reserves, and how many times the strength of their own side is theirs?

With such an advantage, attacking again and again, can't even attack the first line of defense in their mountains? Shi Tingzhu could foresee Huang Taiji's disappointment, he had high hopes for the Eight Banners of the Han Dynasty, and the result was only a small-scale contact battle, and it was this result, if the two sides faced off in a big array, what would it be like?

Losing the emperor's weight, Shi Tingzhu could foresee the status of the Han military banner in the Qing Kingdom, and he roared: "Attack again!" ”

……

The battle between Yang Xingling and Shuangzi Mountain entered a stalemate, and at this time, Kong Youde's artillery battalion, under the strict order of Huang Taiji, had already moved to the side of the big pontoon bridge and wanted to move to the riverbank area.

Zhao Xuan put down the clairvoyant mirror, gritted his teeth and said: "Very good, Kong Youde's artillery has finally been pulled up, within the range of my artillery battalion, you just wait to die!" ”

He sent someone to report to Wang Douyu: "Our battalion is determined to fight with slave artillery, and I ask the general to wait for the news of our division's victory." ”

Wang Dou sent someone to reply: "I am convinced of this! ”

Zhao Xuan ordered that in addition to the five Hongyi three-pounder guns, the remaining twenty-three six-pounder guns and fifteen three-pounder guns were all moved to the big pontoon bridge.

At the same time, on the side of the small artillery array, five Hongyi three-pounder guns were also left, and the remaining ten six-pounder guns and twelve three-pounder guns were left. Zhao Xuan ordered to gather and decided to have sixty large and small red cannons in the concentration camp, and give those two Tartars a little color.

On the other side of the large pontoon bridge, there are also twenty-five machine guns of the great general Franc, these cannons. Except for firing shotguns. It can also fire five-pound cannons, so Zhao Xuan's artillery battalion has 85 artillery pieces of various types.

Not far to the left. There is also the Shenwei General Cannon of the Shenji Battalion, if the two sides are a mile away, there are still their rockets and mortars on that side, and a large number of Shenhuo Flying Crows can hit a part of their artillery.

Artillery battle on both sides. It depends on whose hand the deer dies.

After Zhao Xuan's order was issued, a large number of gunners and soldiers of the Jingbian Army urgently saddled the artillery and ammunition trucks.

A large number of artillery battalion observers rode to the vicinity of the large pontoon bridge to determine in advance the location of the formation that was favorable to their side, and also estimated the possible layout of the two Tartar artillery arrays. The distance between the two sides is then measured in advance.

Looking at the Qing soldiers, the same is true, Eduardo, the artillery officer of the Uzhenha Chao battalion, urgently sent observers, intending to arrive before his own artillery arrived. Find a favorable place to set up.

At this time, the Qing army's seventy generals' heavy artillery were biased to the side of the Jingbian army's artillery array, some distance from the large pontoon bridge, but they originally left twenty Shenwei generals. The direction is not far from the large pontoon bridge, which is used to suppress the artillery of the Shenji battalion.

Although the artillery is far away from the artillery position of the Ming army on the opposite bank. It was also three miles away, and it was necessary to move to the riverbank, but the speed of movement was much faster than that of the seventy heavy guns.

It's just that......

Because on this side of the pontoon bridge, there are 25 machine guns of the Jingbian Army, and although they can only hit more than one mile with live ammunition, the artillery is still very threatening as long as it is one mile closer.

Therefore, considering the safety of the follow-up artillery, Kong Youde ordered these artillery pieces not to move, and at the same time ordered them to bombard the artillery of the Jingbian Army on the shore.

As for the artillery array of the Shenji Battalion, because Kong Youde's artillery battalion moved, Fu Yingchong ordered to turn again, and at this time the artillery array was already chaotic, and the complicated war situation made the gunners of the Shenji Battalion, who had only fixed artillery at the head of the city in the past, feel difficult to adapt.

"The artillery of the thief must be erected there!"

On a slope on the riverbank, several observers of the Jingbian Military Artillery Battalion were urgently discussing, and one of the observers pointed to a certain place on the opposite bank and said affirmatively.

The rest of the observers generally agreed with him, and like this side, the area on the opposite side was also open, with an unobstructed view of the terrain on both sides of the riverbank, and near the large pontoon bridge, which was a good place to set up artillery.

And their own artillery, after estimation, still decided to be placed next to these great generals Franc machine guns, with Hongyi six-pounder guns in the center, and three pounder guns and great generals Franc machine guns on the two wings.

These observers are all observers of every twenty basic salvo units of the artillery battalion, and they have a wealth of artillery knowledge, and they are sure that the next artillery array arrangement will be set up here, but for the sake of prudence, they still use clairvoyance and artillery mirrors to calculate and calculate.

When they were making urgent measurements, the Qing army's twenty Shenwei generals had already opened fire and bombarded those generals' Franc machine guns, but they were only a few miles away, and it was not easy to bombard those artillery guns lined up, because the shells they fired were either close or far away.

The observers, who were not far from the artillery array, also ignored them, and although there were a few heavy solid shells whizzing past them a dozen paces away, they still kept themselves talking.

Of course, they were within the range of the Qing army's firepower, and the opponent's artillery was loud and had no psychological quality, so I was afraid that it would be difficult to hold on to this side.

When the Qing army's 20 heavy artillery bombarded, Zhao Xuan had already pulled a large number of artillery in the battalion to the side of the large pontoon bridge, and finally, the artillery of the small artillery array also arrived, Zhao Xuan ordered the cannons, well-trained gunners, quickly set up the position, 85 large and small artillery pieces lined up, and the thick muzzles were aimed at the sky.

Looking at the Wuzhenha super artillery battalion on the other bank, they were still desperately hurrying with a large herd of cattle and horses, pulling those heavy artillery.

Zhao Xuan showed a smug look: "What about the heavy artillery?" Drag you to death! ”

There are pros and cons to light and heavy artillery, and Zhao Xuan feels more and more that in terms of battlefield maneuvering, his own artillery is far better than those heavy artillery of the Han army flag.
