Kong Youde, as the king of Zhishun who was crowned by Huang Taiji, is naturally not an ordinary color, this is a treasure armor given by Huang Taiji, and his golden eyes are very eye-catching, Kong Youde is always proud of this outfit on weekdays, but today he felt that it was too dazzling for the first time and it was also a fatal thing, because he found that in this round of shelling, there were several projectiles that seemed to be aimed at him.

"Ahh

Looking at the projectiles that couldn't stop flying, many people screamed in fright.

"Boom!"

A six-pound projectile smashed heavily into a wooden box beside Kong Youde with a sharp whistling sound, the wooden box made a loud noise and became torn apart, and the gunpowder loaded in it also splashed everywhere, Kong Youde on the side was very unlucky, and the flying gunpowder splashed all over him, making the original yellow armor black.

"Whoosh ......"

A louder whistling came, and this was the second round of shelling.

Due to the first two shots, coupled with the reports and corrections of the observers on the hot air balloon, this time the Ming troops on the opposite side hit more accurately, and a twelve-pound projectile was wrapped in huge kinetic energy and smashed into a raised stone and bounced, and rolled down the hill with jumps, smashing several Korean soldiers who were hiding behind the hillside.

Because this projectile changed lanes and formed an irregular movement, these Korean soldiers were unfortunately all successful, and they only had to let out a desperate scream, and they were smashed into meat sauce by more than ten pounds of heavy iron pellets, and they only had time to let out a muffled sound and cry, and the internal organs and blood splattered everywhere, dyeing the surrounding land into a bright red and black.

Shang Kexi let out a sharp exclamation, he ran with his legs out, desperately running down the hill, it was too dangerous here, it was safer to go down the hill. Although the armor on Shang Kexi's body weighed dozens of catties, the gravity of the earth seemed to have no effect on him at this moment. ran so fast, the soldiers of the surrounding Han military banners also fled in all directions, and no one came to blame them at this time, even the Qing soldiers who were in charge of military discipline were gone. After all, they are not fools, and no matter how powerful a warrior is, they can't compete with a projectile falling from the sky, after all, it's not called bravery, but stupidity.

The shrill whistling sound kept coming, sounding like a naughty boy whistling indiscriminately, and the sound was sharp and harsh, which made people upset to listen to it. I can't wait to plug my ear holes tightly.

Shang Ke didn't easily pounce on a dirt slope and hid in a slightly sunken dirt pit, and it wasn't until he had shrunk his whole body into the dirt pit that he came back to his senses and looked around. It was only when he settled down that he found that he had something hanging on his head, and when he pulled it down, he saw that it was a piece of blue-gray intestines, and gray bile and red blood were stained all over his hands.

"Phew...... Phew......"

Shang Kexi looked at this, even if he was used to seeing the battlefield of life and death, he was almost sick to vomit. He hurriedly threw away the intestines in his hand. Hurriedly wiped the dirt next to him twice with his hands.

"Knock ......"

At this moment, several heavy crashing sounds came into Shang Kexi's ears, and he was shocked to see several swarthy projectiles smashing on the hillside, and the whole earth seemed to tremble violently in the rumbling knocking sound. Dirt and stones were constantly splashing, and there was a clanging sound on Shang Kexi's armor.

The gunners of the Han army flag, who were caught off guard, fled in all directions, but the artillery on the hill would not move by itself, and the artillery staying on the hillside became the best target for the Ming army. The artillery that was still on the hill in a hurry was also named, after all, the artillery weighing more than 2,000 catties was not so easy to move.

"Ah......h Not far away, a Qing soldier was hit by a heavy projectile, and his entire body disappeared in an instant, and then a round thing flew in front of Shang Kexi and fell to the ground, rolling in front of his eyes.

Shang Kexi looked at it and immediately recognized that this was the Manchu Tubuya who served as the Han Army Banner Jia Lazhangjing, Tubuya was a very famous warrior among the Manchus, who was murderous, and had always taken pleasure in killing on weekdays, so he was sent to the Han Army Banner to serve as Jia Lazhangjing and assume the role of supervision. After arriving at the Han Army Banner, this guy didn't kill people on weekdays, but he didn't expect to be smashed into powder by a projectile today, could it be that there is really retribution in this world?

Just when Shang Kexi was frightened, Huang Taiji in the distance was nervously watching the development of the battle situation in front of him, but he was also in a bad mood by the sudden shelling.

Looking at the mountains that were blown up and dusted and screaming, Yue Tuo said worriedly: "Great Khan, I'm afraid that the Han army flag will not be able to hold up!" ”

"I know!" Huang Taiji was also in a bad mood, originally watching his own side approaching the opponent's phalanx under the cover of the shield car, he was in a good mood, but he never thought that the opponent's artillery camp was the first to fire, and the still gratifying artillery camp was beaten to a wolf.

"Shang Kexi, this waste, he didn't set up a cannon for a long time, but he let the Ming army serve a pot." Huang Taiji clenched his fist fiercely and slapped it in the palm of his other hand, and his heart hurt so much that he almost dripped. Don't look at Shang Kexi's subordinates, most of them are the Ming army, but these soldiers are not comparable to the general cannon fodder troops, in modern terms, these Ming troops are all technical troops, there is no place to replenish the dead and wounded, plus the Qing army has suffered enough from Yingzhou military firearms in recent years, although many people can't put down the shelves to let the Qing army equip firearms, but the importance of the firearms battalion is becoming more and more serious, and every year only the silver allocated to Shang Kexi to make guns and cannons is no less than 300,000 taels. But now Huang Taiji has not heard a sound before it is turned into nothing in a rumbling cannon, how can this not make Huang Taiji feel distressed.

"Ordered Shang Kexi to quickly pull down the artillery, and not to be placed there for the Ming army to bombard...... There is also a sue sù Ustai, a minion who gave me a fierce attack, and he must defeat the Ming army in front! Huang Taiji endured his distress and issued a series of orders.

"Huh!"

After receiving the order, the Qing army, which was still slowly pushing the shield cart forward, immediately increased its speed, and the Qing army that was hiding behind the shield cart and advancing forward also began to trot all the way, at this time they had rushed to a place more than a hundred steps away from the Yingzhou military formation, as long as they could rush to a distance of seventy steps, they could use the strong bow in their hands to teach those Ming troops.

At this time, the confrontation between the cavalry of the Ming army and the cavalry of the Qing army also came to an end temporarily, and the Ming army was well-equipped in this battle. But the Qing army was indeed battle-hardened for a long time, and each side suffered hundreds of casualties, and later saw that it was really impossible to take advantage, and the commanders of both sides issued orders to retreat, which was considered a draw.

Seeing the Qing army slowly approaching under the cover of the shield car, Hu Laosan's lips were so anxious that his lips bubbled, and just as he gritted his teeth and planned to order the cavalry to go out and kill for a while, there was a commotion from the rear. Hu Laosan, who was a little anxious, turned his head and was about to curse, but he saw hundreds of soldiers from the artillery battalion running over with small cars.

"My lord, the brothers of the artillery battalion have come to our aid!"

After seeing the artillery battalion coming. Hu Laosan breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, "His grandmother's, these guys are finally here." ”

Although the fire pistol phalanx was very powerful, there was not much way to deal with the Qing soldiers hiding behind the shield cart, and only the artillery battalion was the best way to deal with this kind of hard turtle shell.

"Quick...... Erection of artillery, the Tartars are coming up quickly. ”

After coming to the back of the infantry phalanx, the gunners of the artillery battalion began to busily set up their guns, and after intense preparations. After four or five minutes, more than 30 artillery pieces and more than 20 small trebuchets were ready, and by this time, the Qing army had been able to advance to a distance of more than 80 paces from them, and a little closer was the range of the Qing army's crossbowmen.

Then. Hu Laosan's order also came: "Pass my order, all of them have it, run together and retreat a hundred steps back!" ”

After receiving the order, the infantry phalanx, which had been standing still, suddenly turned back in unison. Thousands of people began to run backwards. Seeing such a situation, the advancing Qing army was all excited, and the Mel Zhangjing who was commanding shouted: "Warriors of the Great Qing Kingdom. Minggou has been defeated, everyone rush up and kill them! ”

In fact, there was no need for this Mel Zhangjing to give an order, the Qing army in front had already seen the situation clearly, and the commander in the front had already given the order to pursue, and the cavalry at the rear of the team had already accelerated their speed towards the retreating pursuit.

"Hahaha...... This Ming army is dead! Seeing such a strange scene, Haoge, who was watching the battle, couldn't help but slap his thigh and shouted, and many Qing army generals also showed joy on their faces.

Although Huang Taiji is still dressed in a deep suit, the joy in his eyes can't be hidden, they are all people in the battle formation, everyone knows how stupid it is to give his ass to the enemy when he is fighting, although Huang Taiji doesn't understand why the general of the Yingzhou army would give such a stupid order, but now is not the time to think about this.

Just as the Qing cavalry sped up and bypassed their own infantry and successfully stepped forward, the retreating foot soldiers of the other side suddenly stopped, revealing a row of black holes behind them, as if they were exuding a hideous smile.

The cavalry led by the leader and the Huang Taiji in the rear exclaimed almost in unison: "It's not good, there is an ambush!" ”

This time rushed over is thirty-six six-pounder guns, with the support of modern society at this time to show its power, although Yue Yang can not buy modern rear-loading artillery, but buy a tire bearing or something, it is not a problem at all, after the artillery is equipped with steel frame bearings and rubber tires, the mobility of the artillery has been greatly improved. A five-hundred-kilogram six-pounder gun only needs five or six gunners to push around, after intense preparations, at this time the artillery has long been prepared, a hundred generals raised a small red flag and hissed and shouted with all his might: "Fire!" ”

"Boom...... Boom Boom Boom ......"

In the sharp whistle, the artillery position immediately let out a deafening roar, and in the thick smoke, large and heavy iron bullets whistled out and rushed towards the Qing cavalry that was rushing towards them.

Although the cavalry of the Qing army had already discovered the artillery in front, the charging war horses could not be so easy to stop, and in the thick of smoke, the cavalry that rushed quickly fell down like cutting wheat.

The most effective thing against the charging cavalry and infantry is always shotguns, these shotguns are two to three or two iron pellets, usually they are thirty or forty pieces in a net bag, after being filled with gunpowder, these net bags are stuffed into the gun chamber, when they are shot, they will be scattered under the kinetic energy of the high temperature and rapid speed, and fly forward rapidly.

When hundreds of iron pellets swept through the air, the momentum was very staggering. The Qing cavalry that was charging suddenly lacked a large piece like a bite of a pie.

A Qing cavalryman who was charging rapidly was hit in the head by a rapidly flying iron pellet, and without leaving a sound in this world, his head disappeared. The body that was left behind was still on the horse, and it galloped forward for twenty or thirty meters before it fell to the ground with a bang, and then was trampled into pulp by the cavalry that followed.

The Qing soldiers' reaction was swift, and after being attacked, they quickly put their bodies firmly on their horses and continued to charge, firing their bows without turning back, and now they could not stop.

On the artillery position, the gunners of each artillery immediately cleaned the chamber with wet woolen sticks after the guns were fired, and they listened to the continuous sound of water vapor and the steaming air came out.

After clearing the chamber, the loader fills in a new projectile pack. At the same time, a gunner's thumb was pressed against the fire door to prevent the air from backing up and igniting the uncleaned embers. Iron bullets were then sent in to compact, and new powder ropes were installed at the fire door, ready to be aimed and fired.

Due to the installation of pulleys and shock absorbers, the recoil of the gun was greatly improved, so it was easier to aim again in the comparison. Moreover, the artillery firing was not all fired in one go, but was divided into three batches and fired in turn, with twelve guns each time, which made the artillery form an uninterrupted cycle of strikes.

Looking at the galloping Qing army. The Bai boss roared angrily: "Give me a hard beating!" ”

"Boom, boom, boom......"

Another sharp shelling sounded, and a large number of projectiles with death screams continued to fly forward, bringing up bright blood flowers, and one after another war horses fell to the ground with a mournful roar. As soon as the cavalry wailed and was thrown off their horses, this was a contest of blood and fire, a trick between life and death, a collision of steel and courage.

"These bastards. Damn Ming dog, it's so despicable! ”

Looking at the cavalry that fell like weeds blown by a strong wind, the man in charge of commanding the battle felt his heart dripping blood. These are thousands of cavalrymen, and they died worthlessly, and they didn't even have enough to meet the enemy. But at this time, he had no way to retreat, he knew that even if he ordered a retreat at this time, waiting for his soldier Huang Taiji's stormy anger, it had become a luxury to be able to die with dignity, and the biggest possibility was that he was trampled to death by a war horse after being put into a sack by Huang Taiji.

The shadow of death looms over his heart, and he must not retreat, otherwise only death awaits him.

"No...... There must be no retreat. The Great Khan is watching me, as long as I can rush forward, as long as I can annihilate the Ming army in front, I will not only be able to avoid death, but maybe I will also be appreciated by the Great Khan! ”

Thinking of this, he made a crazy decision, raised the war knife in his hand and roared wildly with bloodshot eyes in his eyes: "Everyone speed up and charge...... Charge! ”

At this time, the distance between the two sides was only forty or fifty paces under the desperate charge of the cavalry, and for the cavalry, this distance only took four or five seconds to suffice.

"Rush over...... Rush over and we'll win! The battlefield was filled not only with the voice of that Meler Zhangjing, but also with the voices of Huang Taiji and the generals of the Qing army who were watching the battle.

Yes, the victory was so close to them, and by this time quite a few cavalrymen had begun to shoot arrows forward, and the sparse arrows kept moving forward, and from time to time the gunners fell to the ground.

It stands to reason that artillery at such a close distance cannot be stopped in any way, and this is the opinion of almost everyone. But at this moment, the gunfire began to sound again, and the musketeers who had retreated behind the artillery battalion began to shoot again after regrouping.

The dense lead bullets with a crackling whistling sound knocked down the cavalrymen who were already smiling with victory on their faces, either with blood on their chests, or half of their heads blown off, and more often the horses were shot and fell in front of the artillery positions with a burst of screams and inertia.

More than 2,000 cavalrymen were thrown out of their horses and fell less than five meters away from the artillery position, although the Qing soldier was dead, his eyes still looked at the sky, as if telling his unwilling anger.

"Quick, cheer up, blast the Tartar's shield cart away!" The hoarse roar of the 100-year-old artillery battalion commander was heard in his ears again.

Just when everyone was stunned, the Qing army infantry in front of them had already taken the opportunity to push to a distance of seventy paces from them, and arrows were already shooting from the Qing army's battle formation from time to time.

"Quick, fire...... Put! ”

The gunners who came to their senses lit the arquebuses in front of them one after another, and the guns began to spew fire again, and the heavy projectiles hit the shield cart one after another. These projectiles are not those small lead bullets weighing only a few tens of grams, the iron pellets weighing two or three taels are driven by the huge kinetic energy to beat those thick wooden shield carts to a crackling sound, even if the exterior of these shield carts is still wrapped in cowhide, but it still can't stop the erosion of those iron pellets.

Soon, dozens of shield carts, which seemed indestructible to the Qing army, turned into sieves...... (To be continued......)
