Chapter 252: Field Artillery Strikes

Jiannu was still twenty miles away, and the Ming army discovered the traces of the main force, and the Ming army's caution on the marching route was obviously right.

"Order the front army and the rear army to move closer to the Chinese army, and the Chinese army will set up a formation."

The twenty-mile journey gave the Ming army more than half an hour to arrange their troops. The Chinese army of the Ming army was basically composed of the Central Army, with 6 infantry divisions, 2 cavalry divisions, and 2 artillery regiments.

The front army and the rear army are more than ten miles away from the Chinese army, and the marching speed is not comparable to that of the wild boar skin. So it must be the main force of wild boar skin that arrived first.

However, the time left for the Ming army to deploy the formation was very abundant, and the main force of wild boar skin could only reach the front in two quarters of an hour at the earliest.

More than 70,000 Ming troops, after receiving the order, quickly launched a formation.

Two field artillery regiments formed artillery positions, with infantry in the center and cavalry on both flanks, forming a typical army formation.

Just when the Ming army's formation was just laid out, the wild boar skin finally appeared in the field in the distance.

"The enemy army is five miles away."

"The enemy army is three miles away."

"The enemy army is two miles away."

The lookout constantly sent enemy information to the headquarters. Just two miles away, the boar came to a halt with the main force. I saw that the wild boar skin took out a monocular and began to observe the formation of the Ming army.

This monoculars are a product of the Royal Military Factory, and it is normal for some telescopes to be captured by Jiannu during the Ming Army's war.

From the binoculars, the wild boar skin saw that the Ming army was all ready for battle, and this situation was obviously expected by the wild boar skin.

"Listen to orders." The boar skin immediately shouted an order.

"The son is here, please give an order from my father Khan." Acting for goodness. The wild boar skin quickly ordered: "You lead the horse cloth formation with white flags, red flags, red flags, and blue flags. Form an infantry army to attack the enemy. No matter how serious the casualties were, they must enter the enemy's ranks. ”

"Follow the orders of the Great Khan." Dai Shan looked a little helpless, but he had to respond immediately.

The faces of Haoge, Yue Tuo, and Mang Gurtai all changed, and it was obvious that the wild boar skin was letting them lie on the thunder, and if it sounded good, it was called a difficult task, and if it didn't sound good, it was to be cannon fodder.

The one who feels the most unlucky is naturally Huang Taiji's son Haoge. Du Du, the owner of the white flag, was captured by the Ming army. And after being escorted to Jingshi to be beheaded, the owner of the white flag has become Hauge. But Hauge dared to be the banner master, and he was sent to carry out such a combat mission, which was a pain in the egg, a toothache, and a kidney ache.

"Ben Khan personally led the yellow flag, the yellow flag, and the white flag as a cavalry army, waiting for the opportunity to surprise the enemy's military formation." The wild boar skin looked around, and then continued to say with a cold face: "Everyone, this is my Dajin's last chance, if I can't defeat the Ming Kingdom in this battle, my Dajin will inevitably lose its national fortunes." If I can defeat the Ming Kingdom in one fell swoop, then my Dajin will definitely become the real lord of Liaodong. For Daikin. This battle is fought at all costs. ”

"At any cost, at any cost!"

"At any cost!"

"At any cost!"

Suddenly, there were dogs waving flags and shouting at the wild boar skins. The slogan spread to the whole army in an instant, and nearly 100,000 Jiannu shouted this slogan, which simply shook the world. All the Jiannu soldiers were infected by this kind of qi, and all of them began to surge in blood.

The wild boar skin stared at Dai Shan for a few seconds, then slowed down his voice and said to Dai Shan: "Second child, right! The success or failure of my big gold is here. ”

"Father Khan rest assured, the son will definitely live up to expectations." Dai Shanyi gritted his teeth, and now he has to fight if he doesn't fight. Whether it's for your own life or for Dakin's national fortune, you have to fight. Then he rode out of the column and shouted loudly: "The white flag, the red flag, the red flag, and the blue flag are in the horse formation, and they will fight with Benbele." ”

The strength of the four banners adds up to nearly 60,000 people. These Jiannu turned over and dismounted one after another to form an infantry army, and this attack on the Ming army and the Chinese army must have an infantry army to succeed.

Otherwise, the boar skin rushed over with a group of cavalry, and it would only be a big bag on the head, and there would be no gain. The cavalry was inherently at a disadvantage in the face of the stern infantry.

As for mobility or something, it doesn't work at all at this point. No matter how maneuvering the wild boar skin was, it could not change the Ming army's action of attacking Tieling.

The old village of Hetuala was lost, Shenyang and Liaoyang were also lost, and if Tieling was lost again, it would only be able to retreat into the cold and wild land in the north.

The loss of Tieling is actually inevitable, rather than splitting at that time, it is better to make a desperate gamble now, if he can defeat the Ming army, he can continue the myth of wild boar skin, and achieve a big counterattack.

It was an attack that Boar Skin had to gamble on.

The only good news is that the strength of the Ming army is only one-third of the total strength, which is also the opportunity that the boar skin can try his best to catch.

After 60,000 Jiannu dismounted, they quickly formed an infantry army.

"Forward!" Dai Shan shouted the order, and 60,000 Jiannu immediately pressed towards the Ming army. At this time, a roar suddenly came from the artillery positions of the Ming army.

Boom Boom! ~

Gunpowder smoke rose, and shells roared and smashed into the Jiannu who formed the infantry army, and these Jiannu advanced less than a hundred meters before officially entering the range of the Ming army's field artillery.

These make the effective firing range of the ten-pound cannon 900 meters, but the maximum firing range can hit about 1,500 meters, in fact, even at 1,200 meters, it has lethality, but it cannot destroy the withering and decaying twenty or thirty people.

The cannon sounded, and all the Jiannu soldiers jumped for their eyelids.

Shout......

The sharp whistling of shells began to spread in my ears. At this time, hundreds of shells rushed directly into Jiannu's military formation.

Suddenly, the cannonballs smashed everything that stood in their way, penetrating the body of a famous Jiannu soldier in an instant, leaving a bloody path with stumps and broken arms flying everywhere.

Jiannu's infantry formation inevitably needs to be dense, but under such a dense formation, the terrifying lethality of solid bullets is vividly displayed.

In the first round of shelling by two artillery regiments of the Ming army, 144 solid shells were fired. These shells, which weighed ten catties, basically entered Jiannu's military formation. The goal of 60,000 people is too huge, and it is difficult to deviate.

Every shell that rushed into the crowd was a bloody road on the spot. The most terrifying shell pierced through the twenty-eight Jiannu soldiers on the spot, and then the momentum was exhausted, and it began to bounce on the ground, and during the bounce, two more Jiannu soldiers were stoned to death, and finally fell to the ground motionless.

After just one round of artillery bombardment, the Jiannu infantry formation was beaten like a sieve, full of flesh and blood 'holes', and the terrifying lethality seemed to pour a basin of cold water directly on the heads of the excited Jiannu soldiers, which reminded many Jiannu soldiers of the terrifying artillery fire of the Ming army.

What made them even more terrifying was that they were still two miles away from the Ming army at this time.

Two miles away, they couldn't run across it. That will not only make the formation scattered, but also consume a lot of stamina. They can only advance step by step, and it is a long way. (To be continued......)
