Chapter 307: Dolgon's Shock
As Hao Dayong led a thousand riflemen to a distance of more than 300 steps outside the camp in a neat line, the Qing soldiers had already come to a distance of less than 500 paces away from them, and countless arrows were shooting at the Ming army running behind, and the Ming army was constantly falling to the ground.
Hao Dayong, whose eyes were almost on fire, immediately ordered loudly: "All line up and start loading!" ”
With Hao Dayong's order, the 1,000 riflemen immediately quickly divided into two teams, stood at an interval of five steps one after the other, and then began to load, after being equipped with a Mini bullet with ammunition, the soldiers loaded their ammunition very quickly, and in less than twenty seconds, the soldiers' ammunition had been loaded.
"First row guns up, aim!"
Just when Hao Dayong kept giving orders, with the sound of rumbling horses' hooves, the Qing army had approached a distance of four hundred steps, and rushed towards them with a hideous smile, in the eyes of those Qing soldiers, these stupid Ming soldiers dared to send foot soldiers to stop their invincible Qing warriors in an unobstructed place, which was not only a naked contempt, but also an act of seeking death.
One of the leaders of the group, Zhang Zhangjing, laughed and ordered loudly: "Warriors of the Great Qing Dynasty, use your iron hooves and bows and arrows to send those Ming troops who don't know whether they are alive or dead to the Western Heavens, kill!" ”
"Kill!"
With the order, thousands of cavalry jumped on their horses and whipped their whips, and rushed towards the thin two-layer infantry defense line in front of them, all of them clenched the longbows in their hands, ready to show the Ming army in front of them who dared to come out to die, and let them know that the iron cavalry of the Qing Dynasty was irresistible.
Just as the Qing soldiers were trying to charge, a dull burst of gunfire rang out in front of them, followed by a puff of rising white smoke.
"Hahaha" The Jiala Zhangjing who rushed to the middle couldn't help laughing, "These stupid Ming people, they are still so afraid of death, they actually opened fire from such a distance." Hmmm what, how is this possible? ”
With the exclamation of this Jia Lazhangjing, a row of Qing soldiers who were rushing in front of them fell down one after another as if they had suddenly hit a wall, and some of the war horses raised their front hooves high and fell heavily to the ground, and for a time the entire cavalry team was thrown into a mess on their backs.
The fall and dismount of nearly 100 cavalrymen in the front row caused great trouble to the cavalry who were charging in a dense formation behind them, and the cavalry behind them were reined in one after another to bypass the side, and those who rushed too quickly to bypass could only crash into the bodies of their comrades in front, and many cavalrymen and horses were tripped and fell to the ground.
The loss of more than a hundred cavalry at once stunned the man in the middle, but a wave of anger surged into his heart.
"Everyone continue to charge and kill all those damn Ming troops!"
Looking at the cavalry constantly surging in front of him, Hao Dayong's face changed slightly, and he gritted his teeth and continued to order: "The second row fires!" The first row is immediately reloaded! ”
"Bang Bang Bang"
Accompanied by a burst of gunfire and the pungent smell of gunsmoke, bursts of white smoke rose faintly, and the Qing soldiers who were gritting their teeth and rushing forward continued to fall to the ground.
"Fire!"
"Bang Bang Bang"
"Fire"
"Bang Bang Bang"
In the continuous gunfire, the Qing soldiers who were originally rushing like a surging river seemed to have touched a strong dam, and the head that was hit broke the blood, and after several rounds of gunfire, the front of the riflemen led by Hao Dayong was full of fallen horses and foot soldiers, and even the Jia Lazhangjing, who was originally hiding in the middle of the command, also fell in a pool of blood at this moment, with a pale face and godless eyes looking ahead.
"Oh no, Lord Dol is dead in battle, Lord Dol is dead in battle!"
After more than half of the casualties and the main general were also killed, the Qing cavalry, who had been desperately charging, finally broke down, and as soon as they lifted the reins of their horses, they turned in the opposite direction and ran back desperately.
At this time, a bell also sounded in the camp of the Ming army, which was a signal for the retreat.
"Retreat, retreat!"
Hao Dayong didn't dare to slack off, and quickly ordered the soldiers to turn back, spread their feet and ran towards their own camp, completely lacking the composure when shooting just now.
Just when Hao Dayong led the soldiers to run to the camp, there was a muffled thunderous sound from the rear, and the Ming troops in the camp changed color slightly, the sound of these horses' hooves was so dense and violent, knocking on the ground, as if the ground was also trembling, and the Qing army's brigade finally arrived.
"Hurry up and enter the barracks!"
The soldiers who were guarding in the camp shouted loudly, Hao Dayong and all the soldiers fought hard and finally ran into the camp, and when the last soldier ran into the camp, the heavy gate was finally closed under the push of dozens of soldiers.
A mile outside the camp of the Ming army, Dolgon stood on a high ground with a group of generals and Goshha, and they could see clearly the Qing soldiers who were pursuing the Ming army just now, and Dolgon gasped and exclaimed: "I didn't expect the firearms of the Ming army to be so sharp, and even my Qing iron cavalry suffered a big loss in front of him." ”
Dodor, who was beside Dolgon, also exclaimed: "The most important thing is that their firearms are also very fast and have a very long range, as I have just observed, they can fire three or four times in the time of a cup of tea, such a rate of fire is terrifying." The bow and arrow of our Qing warriors"
Speaking of this, Duoduo didn't say any more, but the meaning was already obvious, the riding and archery kung fu that the Qing Dynasty had always been proud of was powerless in the face of such a sharp and abnormal firearm.
Dolgon said with a calm face: "We must re-judge the combat strength of this Qingzhou army, otherwise we will suffer a big loss." Alright, let's go back to the camp first. ”
Duoduo hesitated for a moment and said, "But, Yue Tuo just came, shouldn't we send troops to meet it?" ”
"Answer? What to receive? Dorgon shook his head, "They are strong, and there are more men and horses than we are, do they need our help?" ”
Duoduo heard the dissatisfaction in Dolgon's heart, but he was not surprised in his heart, the two of them were now the owner of the white flag and the other was the owner of the white flag, and the two together were a lot of strength.
In fact, the two were originally the owners of the positive yellow flag and the inlaid yellow flag, but after Huang Taiji grabbed the eight flags as the owner of the positive white flag, in order to consolidate his position, he renamed his positive white flag to the positive yellow flag, and the original positive yellow flag of Dolxiang was renamed the positive white flag. He also renamed his son Hauge's inlaid white flag to the inlaid yellow flag, and the original Duoduo inlaid yellow flag was renamed inlaid with white flags.
After Huang Taiji ascended the throne, he began to toss the white flags and inlaid white flags of Dorgon and Duoduo, but the strength of the two banners led by Dorgon and Duoduo was still quite strong, and Huang Taiji did not dare to go too far, after all, the combined power of the three brothers of Azig, Dorgon and Duoduo can rank second among the eight banners.
However, Huang Taiji's small actions in the secret are also inevitable, this time Huang Taiji made Dolgon a general, and let him lead the army to invade the Ming Dynasty, which naturally also contains thoughts and ideas to weaken the strength of Dolgon and Duoduo brothers, otherwise he would not have sent his own hardcore henchman Yue Tuo to balance the Dolgon brothers.
When Dolgon thought of this, he felt a greasy feeling in his heart, he did not deny that he had ambitions for the position of the Great Khan, but the Huang Taiji's methods were too inferior, not only forged Nurhachi's edict, but also forced his brothers' biological mother Abahai to die for Nurhachi's funeral, which Dolgon couldn't bear anyway.
But Dolgon also knows that since Huang Taiji ascended the throne, he has conquered the Mongolian tribes, and his reputation is as good as Zhongtian, and if his brothers want to oppose Huang Taiji at this moment, the opportunity is tantamount to hitting a stone with an egg, but he will not let go of the opportunity to weaken Huang Taiji's wings.
"Let's go, go back to the camp, and get ready to meet our General Yue!"
In front of the huge tent, Dolgon was standing in front of him with a smile and a groan, welcoming Yue Tuo who had returned from the great victory.
"Congratulations to General Yang Wu on his return from a great victory, this king is here to congratulate you."
Yue Tuo, who had won a big victory, should be beaming, after all, he was able to break through Lugou Bridge and Wanping City, and beat the 50,000 troops of the Ming army to the ground, which was a great merit for anyone, but at this time, Yue Tuo's face did not see much joy, but there was a trace of anger.
Yue Tuo's expression was seen by Dolgon, Dolgon just secretly let out a sneer in his heart, but he still took Yue Tuo's hand with a smile on his face and entered the big tent together, behind them were dozens of mighty Qing army generals.
After entering the tent, the people sat down at once, and Dorgon was about to say something, but was interrupted by Yueto. Yue Tuo sighed and said: "Prince Rui, if you want to say those words of congratulations, you don't need to say it, I know that in addition to the lives of the soldiers who can defeat the Ming army this time, the high diving is also an important reason, not to mention that those Ming troops ran too fast, and they didn't kill many of them today, and the minion of Dol Bar was also killed, which makes me really hard to boast of a big victory." ”
"Well, I also saw the battle just now." Dolgon nodded: "I also saw it in time, the firearms of the Qingzhou army are sharp and abnormal, and the elite cavalry of our army was shot off the horse one by one before they rushed to the enemy, but fortunately, the firearms in the Ming army do not seem to be very many, otherwise the losses of our army will be even more serious." ”
"Yes!" Speaking of this, Yue Tuo also gritted his teeth and said: "I have seen it from afar, it seems that we still underestimate the combat power of the Qingzhou Army." ”
Dolgon also frowned and said: "We can't spend it here with them, otherwise the loss will be small, and the emperor's major affairs that will be delayed will not be good."
