Hong Chengchou was old in the war, and soon arranged for the general troops of each town to fight.

In Hong Chengchou's arrangement, Li Fuming and Zuo Guangxian's soldiers and horses attacked Twin Mountains, and the two of them had more than 10,000 cavalry each, and there were also many chariots in the battalion, while the defenders of Twin Mountains were only a few thousand, and there were even fewer armor soldiers, so such a force was superior.

Moreover, most of the mortar artillery, big rockets, etc. in the Fu Ying Chongshen Machine Battalion also supported the two general soldiers, and the army also had many mountain attack equipment, Hong Chengchou personally led the standard battalion, the local soldiers and horses in Liaodong, and the officers and soldiers of Jizhen continued to support in the rear.

Although the Qing soldiers also continue to come, but the boundary of the Twin Mountains is so big, more reinforcements can not be placed, in general, the battle of the Twin Mountains, the Ming army is outnumbered, the chance of victory is very great.

In the battle of Twin Mountains, Zuo Guangxian, the commander of the reinforcement army, took the initiative to seek battle, and since the arrival of reinforcements from various towns and the battle of Songjin, his soldiers and horses have not fought a big battle, which is unbearable for the brave and belligerent Zuo Guangxian.

The soldiers and horses under his battalion also held their breath, wanting to show themselves in this big battle and prove that the Qin army was also a good man and could afford a big battle.

The soldiers of Jizhen, who are known as those who can fight and dare to fight, have to be a reserve now.

Since the general soldier Bai Guangen was killed in battle, many generals were punished, and many elite soldiers and strong generals were transferred to supplement the town, although there were still more than 10,000 soldiers and horses left in the town, the soldiers of each battalion had no spirit and spirit, and could only pick up the cheap after the army.

The most critical point of this battle is to block the Qing reinforcements from crossing the river, especially the stronghold on the north bank, which is a major event related to the next strategic development. Looking at it, what can reassure Hong Chengchou is none other than Wang Doujing's border army, or Yang Guozhu's new army, which can't make him feel at ease.

At this time, there were more and more Qing troops on the north bank, and it was quite dangerous to defend the opposite mountains.

However, Wang Dou didn't say a word, and went after receiving the order, which made Hong Chengchou, who had already prepared for hard persuasion, stunned, and felt even more complicated in his heart.

At the juncture of the war, even Zuo Guangxian, whom he personally brought from Shaanxi, made a lot of demands to a greater or lesser extent, and only Wang Dou was extremely simple. This kind of performance of loyalty and courage makes anyone have nothing to say, and the more this is the case, the more Hong Chengchou sighs in his heart.

To be on the safe side, Hong Chengchou also placed Yang Guozhu and Wang Pu's troops and horses on the south bank to block the Qing troops who might cross the river, and supported Wang Dou's Jingbian army as appropriate.

The Shenwei General Cannon of the Shenji Battalion and a large number of rocket vehicles were also arranged on the south bank to support the artillery position of the Jingbian Army.

The heavy artillery of the Qing army has lethality for nearly three miles, and although the artillery battalion of the Jingbian Army is sharp, the heaviest artillery can only hit more than two miles, although it is amazing, but if it is an artillery battle, in terms of range, it is still inferior to the heavy artillery of the Qing army.

Up to now, the Ming army has more or less summed up the law, and the Hongyi cannons of each battalion, in addition to attacking the city, are still arranged in the wilderness and flat land to show more power. Fu Yingchong's camp in the mortar cannon, after the Qing army used a lot of sacks and earthen baskets, it was still effective in attacking the mountains, of course, when the two sides lined up, it was also a sharp weapon.

However, at this time, a large number of mortars from the Shenji Battalion supported the Battle of Twin Mountains. In order to deal the greatest blow to the Qing army, these mortars will be spread out in an arc along the lower arc of the Twin Mountains, and try their best to bombard the mountains from the south, west, and southeast sides of the Twin Mountains.

In addition to burning the mountains, the Shenji Battalion's Shenhuo Flying Crows and other big rockets can also fly to the Qing troops behind the mountains depending on the direction of the wind.

At Fu Yingchong's strong request, Li Fuming and Zuo Guangxian, who attacked the mountain, promised to take care of the safety of the soldiers of the Shenji Battalion.

The military situation was urgent, and the two commanders-in-chief who had received the military order immediately launched an offensive against the Twin Mountains.

As the big drums in their army sounded, the infantry of the second town, desperately pushing the light Buddha Lang machine in the army, as well as the firearms such as Baizi Gong, shouted and rushed towards the mountains.

At this time, there was no artillery on the mountain, so the Ming army attacking the mountain did not use earth-wheeled vehicles to accompany them. However, because of the excavation of many high and deep walls and trenches on the mountain range, there are still some people pushing trenches and other mountain-attacking equipment to follow.

The twin mountains are not big, composed of two undulating hills, the left side is slightly larger, the right side is slightly smaller, in the Hong Chengchou arrangement, Li Fuming attacked the right mountain, and the left light attacked the left mountain first.

At first glance, Hong Chengchou seemed to be taking care of Li Fuming, but in fact, from Pingchuan at the foot of the mountain to the official road, and then to the Rufeng Mountain in the northeast, at this time, it was full of dense Qing cavalry, attacking the right mountain, Li Fuming's army would be fiercely attacked by the Qing army on the flank.

On the other hand, Zuo Guangxian, although the left hill is slightly difficult to attack, but because of the support of a large number of mortar artillery, although the Qing army may attack from the Pingchuan between the mountain and the river on the left, Zuo Guangxian's Qin army can be supported by Yang Guozhu and Wang Pu in the rear of the bank.

I have to say that from this arrangement, it can be seen that Hong Chengchou takes care of his own selfishness.

However, Mr. Li didn't say anything, just took the order in silence.

When the infantry of the Ming army shouted and rushed towards the mountains, the Qing cavalry on the plains on both flanks of the Twin Mountains also came like a tide. The cavalry of the Jin army and the Qin army rushed forward without hesitation, using their own flesh and blood to entangle them, and the two sides were in full swing.

The cavalry battle was fierce and cruel, after all, the Jin army and the Qin army, in terms of combat strength, were even inferior to the Qing army, and at this time they did not have much advantage in numbers, and in the passionate war drums, Li Fuming and Zuo Guangxian roared loudly: "Kill slaves!" ”

They constantly sent the cavalry in the town, and even led the soldiers and cavalry of the main barracks to fight with the Qing cavalry in person, and even led their troops to charge more than ten times. Hong Chengchou, who was in the rear, also saw the reinforcements of the battle situation, and even transferred some cavalry of Yang Guozhu and Wang Pu over.

Under the cover of the cavalry, the infantry of the second town took the opportunity to rush to the front of the Twin Mountains, and the gunners of the Shenji Battalion only set up mortars one mile away from the mountain.

At this time, Shuangzishan reinforced a lot of Korean troops, but there was no artillery, in the guard general Weng Adai, as well as the frightened eyes of Fei Yangwu and others, the gunners of the Shenji Battalion finally set up mortars, and at least 100 Shenhuo Flying Crow rockets.

After a sharp swan sound, a series of mortar artillery sounds sounded in the artillery array of the Shenji Battalion, and from the southeast to the northwest of the mountain, dense smoke rose from the arc-shaped artillery array, and the raindrops of artillery covered the two peaks of the Twin Mountains.

With the deafening sound of explosions, large clouds of strange green smoke, as well as white smoke, filled all over the mountains.

Shout!

The Shenji Battalion is not far to the south of the Twin Mountains, and it also sets up a large array of Divine Fire Flying Crows.

Huge rockets like crows, erected on high chariots, can also adjust the angle and intensity of the rocket.

With the ignition of several foot-long take-off rocket fire lines, one after another huge Divine Fire Flying Raven rockets spewed out dense gunpowder smoke from the tail of the arrow, accompanied by brilliant firelight, and shot into the sky one after another.

These rockets are flying with a screeching sound!

These crows are actually heavy, although the crows are all made of bamboo and wood frames and cotton paper, but because of the crows with a lot of gunpowder tied inside, they do not fly very far. If the wind is strong, it can fly more than two miles, and if the wind is small, the range is less than two miles.

Overall, the more rockets pushed below, the farther they fly.

It may be that some rockets have been stored for a long time, and there is a problem with the gunpowder, and some of the crows explode when they shoot into the air, stirring up a large group of fire.

Or maybe some of the crows have a problem with their wings, and they fly crookedly and far away from the target.

However, for the Shenji Battalion, the goal of the entire mountain range of the Twin Mountains is still large, especially at this time, the defenders on the mountain are dense, so.

Boom!

One rocket after another shot into the mountain, the burning line of fire, ignited the gunpowder inside, and with a loud explosion, all over the mountain, stirred up a large group of fire.

Stone and soil were flying, and some Qing troops near the explosive rocket were blown to pieces, and if the amount of black powder was large, the power should not be underestimated.

In addition to a large amount of gunpowder, there are also many tribulus terrestris, gravel and other things, even if the Qing army outside the explosion range, it was shot into a blur of flesh and blood by many flying sharp weapons.

There were also some Qing soldiers who were on fire, scurrying around the mountains like headless flies, and let out earth-shattering screams.

The main function of the Divine Fire Raven is incineration, so there are a large number of materials such as fire oil in it, which can be described as the original form of the condensate gas and oil bomb.

Some of the unlucky Qing soldiers were even burned alive.

Boom!

Shout!

The mortar cannon of the Shenji battalion is constantly firing, and because the mortar cannon is short and extremely strong, there is no danger of exploding, as long as the cannon is sufficient, it can fire one or twenty rounds without stopping. At the same time as the mortar cannon was fired, one after another Divine Fire Flying Crows also roared away.

As far as the eye can see, the entire Twin Mountains have been covered in thick smoke, and large clusters of fire are constantly rising.

Not only that, but the mortars and big rockets of the Shenji Battalion also roared to the rear of the mountain.

At this time, behind the Twin Mountains, a large number of Qing army infantry and miscellaneous soldiers gathered, mostly the Korean army, the Manchurian Blue Banner and the Mongolian Blue Banner soldiers and horses, as well as a group of other flag reinforcements, constantly reaching the plain behind the mountains.

They gathered at the foot of the mountain, sat or stood, waiting for their order to join the battle. Unexpectedly, a large number of mortar cannons, and a lot of big rockets, in their frightened eyes, flew towards them from the other side of the mountain......

When the artillery fire of the Shenji battalion was bombarded in the rear, the infantry of the Jin army and the Qin army, pushing the chariots, rushed towards the mountains with all their might.

Although these tactics may be inadvertently injurious to their own side, most people, including Hong Chengchou, think that it is worth it.

If the artillery bombardment is followed and then charged, the Qing army may avoid some artillery and then come out to meet the battle, and the final casualties will be greater.

Soon, the soldiers of the second town rushed up the mountain range and engaged in brutal hand-to-hand combat with the Qing army.

……

Looking at the battle in the Twin Mountains, Huang Taiji, who had arrived on the west side of Rufeng Mountain, was anxious, and the defenders on the mountain, most of them were his son Haoge's soldiers, and the loss of a Niu Lu made him feel extremely distressed.

Especially guarding the mountain, there are some Eight Banners Mongolian Army, the Battle of Songjin, because it is not a robbery, so the determination of the Mongolian people is not as firm as in the past. If the damage after the war is too great, the Eight Banners Mongolia may have a different heart, which Huang Taiji cannot bear.

The reason why Manchu and Mongolia are united is also because of the successive victories after the rise of Manchuria, and they participated in the war with them, with little loss, but great gains.

After all, those Mongols are not loyal people, and they will not do anything to lose money.

He looked at several pontoon bridges across the river, the original seven pontoon bridges, now only four pontoon bridges can be crossed, a large pontoon bridge, three small pontoon bridges, of which the large pontoon bridge and a small pontoon bridge, labor is in the hands of the Ming army.

At the beginning of the Battle of Twin Mountains, some Qing cavalry tried to come to the aid from the pontoon bridge, but after being hit by the Jingbian Army and other artillery, they immediately retreated and crossed the river from the northern section of Rufeng Mountain.

It's just that the army is gathered behind the Twin Mountains and in front of the Rufeng Mountain, and the layout of their own forces cannot be expanded.

The long and narrow twin mountains, between the Daughter River and the Rufeng Mountain, want to fight with the Ming army, have to run out from the two wings of some flat rivers, but the terrain is beneficial.

If you rush down from the front of the mountain, you will have to face the infantry of the Ming army. The guard general Fei Yangwu once sent troops and horses to fight to the death, but they rushed down from the mountain, and were attacked by the dense and ruthless blows of the Ming army's Buddha Langji and Baizi Gong, and under the gorgeous flames, they fell in despair one by one.

Dolgon suggested to Huang Taiji that it would be better to abandon the Twin Mountains and fight the Ming army on the north bank.

Even Zilharang believes that in the current situation, the only way to abandon the Twin Mountains is to give up. The Ming army captured the Twin Mountains, and it was many times more difficult to capture Rufeng Mountain, and the Ming army may no longer attack the mountains, but instead attack the north bank, which is an advantage for the Qing Dynasty Iron Cavalry.

Huang Taiji knew the thoughts of these banner masters, since the Ming army rushed and the Daughter River battle, their banners were quite damaged. Although the casualties of each banner were only a few hundred in each banner, for these Manchurian banner owners, who regarded the bannermen as their lives, they had already complained again and again, saying that this was a meaningless death.

"Rat-eyed people!"

Huang Taiji was angry in his heart, but he didn't dare to persecute too much, so as not to provoke the collective rebellion of the banner owners.

The only top priority is to wait for the Han army flag artillery to arrive, hoping to return to a game.

"Even if you lose the Twin Mountains, you need to take Yang Xingling!"

Huang Taiji thought hatefully, looking at the mountain range occupied by the Jingbian army on the north bank.

The ridge is named because there is a Yang Xingtun a few miles away.

At this time, on the front of the mountain range, not far away, more and more Han Eight Banner armor soldiers gathered. In their array, there were also some shield carts and earthen carts, all of which were urgently pulled by the Qing army from the camp in the south of Jinzhou, or Jinchang Fort and other places.

The two flanks of the mountain range are not far away, although there are also some Han Eight Banner troops, but there are not many, after all, as soon as these troops appear, they will be bombarded by the artillery array of the Jingbian Army on the south bank.

They didn't know what secret to use, the artillery hit fast and fiercely, which made Huang Taiji worry in his heart, did the Wuzhenha super artillery battalion really have a chance to win against the Shangjingbian army artillery battalion?

Look at the noon, the Twin Mountains will fall, the Wuzhenha Chao Artillery Battalion has not seen the shadow, Huang Taiji stared at the Kabush Xian Kala Angbang Wu Bai in front of him: "Kong Youde's artillery barracks, haven't you arrived yet?" ”

Wu Bai was sweating profusely, hesitating and not knowing how to answer, at this moment, a Kabush sentry horse rushed to the scene, Wu Bai's eyes lit up, and he thought: "It must be the artillery camp of King Gongshun that has arrived." "Sure enough, this sentry brought the good news that the Uzhenha Super Artillery Battalion had reached the north bank of the Daughter River. Huang Taiji was also overjoyed, and sure enough, in the clairvoyant mirror, he vaguely saw that somewhere on the north bank, a large group of cattle and horses was desperately dragging a cannon group to arrive.

Huang Taiji looked at the Twin Mountains and issued an order in his mouth: "Spread my will, obey the Wang's Wuzhenha Super Artillery Battalion, march immediately, participate in the battle, all Hongyi small cannons, God bless the general, and bombard Yang Xingling of the Wang Dou Department." The rest of the 100 Shenwei generals bombarded the artillery battalion of the Jingbian army on the opposite bank, and they must suppress the artillery fire of the Jingbian army on both sides of the mountain! ”

The Han army attacked Yang Xingling of the Jingbian Army, and it was obvious that it was not enough to attack close to the front, and it was necessary to outflank it from both flanks.

Huang Taiji still remembered to cross the south bank from the pontoon bridge and participate in the operation of assisting the Twin Mountains, so the Wuzhenha super artillery battalion, in addition to bombarding Yang Xingling, it was also necessary to bombard the Ming army on the other side.

There are more than 30,000 soldiers of the Eight Banners of the Han Dynasty, which is a very sufficient source of cannon fodder, no matter how many of them die, the owners of the banners will not have any opinions, and it is really a clever trick to use them to help the other side, at most it is good to follow some Manchurian Eight Banner soldiers.

Moreover, in Huang Taiji's view, it was enough for ten Hongyi small cannons to hit eight catties of cannons, fifty guns to fight three or five catties, and six or seven catties of cannons, and to bombard Yang Xingling of the Jingbian Army.

Yang Xingling's Jingbian army only had some small cannons with a range of less than one mile, and his own 60 Hongyi artillery guns bombarded more than a mile away.

Huang Taiji also knew that the artillery array of the Jingbian Army on the other side of the river had some slightly larger artillery, which could hit more than two miles, but there were not many of them. As for the Shenwei General Cannon of the Shenji Battalion, Huang Taiji admitted that they had a certain threat, but it was impossible for him to be afraid.

The remaining 90 Shenwei General Cannons on their side were enough to suppress the artillery fire of the Ming army on the opposite bank, so that their reinforcements could not cross the river, and even hit the Ming army formation on the opposite bank. If they retreated, it happened that the Qing soldiers and horses would continue to cross the river.

……

When Kong Youde's Wuzhenha Super Artillery Battalion arrived at the north bank of the Daughter River, the soldiers in the battalion were all gray and tired.

Kong Youde was also hoarse, all the way over, in order to urge the artillery battalion to march, he didn't know how much effort, and even dismounted and pushed the cannon with the soldiers.

In order to hurry, more than half of the healthy cattle in the camp had died of exhaustion, and even some of the clothes that attracted the cannons were so tired that they vomited blood.

He was tired of his horse, and some of his guards guarded him, and now he had changed his name to Goshha, and the former members of the battalion had become ordinary soldiers. After all, in the Qing State at this time, it was not allowed to recruit officials to support their families, and there were strict regulations on the number of personal guards.

Beside him, Eduardo, who was wearing a Portuguese military uniform, was also tired and dusty, but he still tried his best to maintain his so-called aristocratic image and demeanor.

Looking at the continuous reinforcements in front of him, who were called horses and neighing, he flattered Kong Youde in stiff Chinese: "Your Excellency, you have created a miracle that the artillery battalion can reach its destination so quickly. ”

Being flattered by Eduardo like this, Kong Youde was in a good mood, thinking that this Hongyi would still be a man, and if he had the chance, he would definitely lift him up.

He rubbed his rough face to relieve his fatigue, and smiled at Eduardo: "Dwarf Delga, do a good job, there will be a day when you have a long future." ”

Eduardo was annoyed: "Donkey Ball, call me dwarf again!" ”

This donkey ball was learned by him from a Han gunner in the artillery camp, and he felt very interesting at the time, and he remembered it unconsciously in his heart.

In foreign cultures, swearing words are always the fastest to learn.

Although dissatisfied, he bowed slightly on the horse: "Thank you for your good luck." ”

The more the artillery battalion advanced, the more it heard the sound of artillery on the opposite bank, and the sound of killing shook the sky, and it seemed that there was a fierce battle on that side. The flag sentry riders around him are galloping back and forth, and the military formations in front are continuous, full of soldiers and horses of the eight banners, and you can also see the banner owners and Gushan Ezhen weaving golden dragons.

Like swarms of ants, they were desperately digging trenches several miles offshore, but they finally left a place for the artillery battalion to pass through.

Kong Youde saw that the Han army flag was at the forefront, and was urging the artillery battalion to go there, when he saw Kabush Xianzhang Jinglaosa, leading some Gebush Xian cavalry to rush over...... (To be continued)
