Chapter 184: A Greater Appetite

Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.

The lethality of solid projectiles is still limited, and a few shells hit directly into the soft soil, which has no lethality at all, and Gu Zhenhua shook his head a little when he saw it.

It seems that we still have to focus on deploying flower bombs, and the mines have already been made, as long as the mines are appropriately miniaturized, you can make suitable flower bombs, and the next battle will allow the opponent to taste the power of flower bombs!

I have to say that Daming's science and technology are not backward, flint guns, flowering bullets, and the training methods left by a genius general like Qi Jiguang are enough to deal a fatal blow to the nomads. It's just a pity that the terrible political and poor organizational skills have made this old empire unable to wield its due combat effectiveness, and on the contrary, it has been dragged down by internal contradictions.

"Tartar wait! Just give Lao Tzu a little more time, and crush you like crushing a bed bug! ”

Gu Zhenhua was secretly ruthless in his heart, the command flag in his hand waved, and the artillery immediately stepped up its action. Immediately after the first round of bombardment, the finished sub-cannon was taken out, replaced with another sub-cannon, and continued to shoot.

The cavalry is calculated according to the degree of ten meters per second, and it takes at least half a minute to run more than 300 meters. The Furlong cannon is equipped with three sub-cannons, and a skilled gunner can shoot all three cannons in less than twenty seconds.

Just when the Guanning army approached the An** position, it had to suffer three rounds of baptism. A fist-sized cannonball hit him head-on, and a knight dodged with it, causing the horse to stumble and fall to the ground.

Several horses were tripped behind him, and several knights on the horses were thrown out or fractured. Or severed hands and feet, and before they could struggle, the horses behind rushed up. Drowned them in the cavalry.

The cannonball was as fast as lightning, and a cavalryman was holding a saber, and the cannonball passed through his arm, and suddenly one of his arms was knocked away, and he fell heavily on the cavalry behind him, and one of the cavalrymen fell off his horse.

This unlucky guy didn't even notice it, and ran after dozens of steps. Only then did he realize that the right side was empty, and he watched in disbelief as the broken arm continued to spurt blood, and the vitality was also about to pass away. A sharp pain came, and his eyes went black, and he rolled to the right and fell to the ground.

A few shells, tumbling and jumping vigorously on the hard ground. Jump left and right. There was a crackling fracture, and several of the horse's legs were swept off by them, or jumped directly into the horse's belly, causing a roar of neighing.

It may be happier to be killed directly, but some people have half of their faces swept away, their noses knocked out, their right cheekbones shattered, and half of their lips and teeth are gone. Half human, half flesh blur. More terrifying than a ghost, he subconsciously reached out and touched it, but it happened to touch the protruding eyeball, and he screamed and fell to the ground in pain.

Seeing that the Guanning army was getting closer and closer, Gao Hongtu Jiangnan ordered, and the fifteen medium-sized Franc guns with loaded sub-guns neatly lowered the elevation angle, and the black pressed muzzles were aimed at the rolling cavalry.

The third round of shooting was fired, and this round was different from the previous one, because the distance was within 200 paces, and the projectiles were no longer solid, but scattershots.

Lead pellets and iron eggs, and even stones, hit them with heads and faces, and in an instant, the cavalry of the Guan Ning army were killed and wounded, and they were beaten to the point that their skin and flesh were blurred, and they fell off their horses one after another.

If it is replaced by a miscellaneous army, these three rounds of artillery alone will be enough to bombard the temper. However, the Guan Ning army is not an ordinary army after all, and after shaving and changing clothes, these people also know that there is no way out, so they work extra hard.

After their team was a little confused, they continued to rush at An's team, screaming and screaming, their eyes were red, and they seemed to want to wash away their hatred in one fell swoop.

Looking at the surging approaching Guan Ningjun, Xie Bin unconsciously licked his upper lip and sneered: "Fire Hammer Ready!" ”

The cavalry drew closer and closer, and at last they reached a distance of about a hundred paces.

Xie Bin and Zhou Yingjie gave the order almost at the same time: "Shoot!" ”

The fire rope was shining, the smoke of gunpowder was dispersed, and the lead pellets rained out, rushing to the front, the Guan Ning army was hit one after another, and the dumplings were like dumplings, and they fell off the horse crazily.

How many times have Xie Bin communicated with Li Xu and Guo Yunlong, and he knows the details of Guan Ningjun. In the final analysis, the Guan Ning army is very similar to their opponent Manchu Qing, both rely on personal bravery, but because the Ming Dynasty is willing to invest, it is a strong army.

Compared with Gu Zhenhua's training mode, the two sides are very different, and the Guan Ning army relies more on the rush of elite forces. So Ann's shooter locked his guns on the fiercest and most capable guys.

The lead shot hit the thick armor, and at a distance of a hundred paces, the soldiers in both layers of armor were all beaten to the point that their skin was broken, their bones were broken, and they fell under their horses. The three-layer armor human flesh tank could not penetrate it, but the huge kinetic energy was enough to destroy their internal organs.

After some people were shot, they seemed to be fine and ran for dozens of steps, then suddenly their facial features were distorted and they fell to the ground, struggling in pain, and the internal organs hemorrhage caused by the bullet made them lose their combat effectiveness and fall to the ground waiting for death.

After the skillful three-stage shooting, after calmly fighting, three or four hundred elites of the Guanning army fell to the ground, regardless of casualties, in short, they completely lost their combat effectiveness.

Such an efficient killing made the corners of Yang Ming's mouth twitch, what he wanted most now was to smoke a few mouths of himself, back then, the Ming Court also gave Guan Ningjun a lot of firearms, and even a large number of craftsmen, but Guan Ningjun didn't pay attention to firearms at all, blindly following the Qing army, and was thrown farther and farther away.

If you could have displayed firearms at that time, maybe you didn't have to surrender to the Manchus, and the Guanning Army would have already become a hero to save the Ming Dynasty!

Of course, I regret that there is nowhere to buy medicine. Yang Ming knows even more that if he is distressed and sacrificed and does not dare to rush forward, then these people who died will have no value.

"Rush, kill! Capture Gu Zhenhua alive and reward 100,000 taels of silver! ”

Yang Ming thought about fighting to the death, Guan Ningjun endured the huge damage and continued to rush forward, seeing that the distance was about fifty steps.

At this time, the tiger squat cannon behind suddenly sounded, and the sound shook the earth, and Guan Ningjun was already stupid by this sound. As soon as I heard the sound of the tiger squatting cannon, I knew that it was not good.

The fire was shining and the smoke was rising. More lethal cannons came at them, and the density was far more alarming than before. Small pebbles, small iron eggs, fell on the face, like knives.

The bridge of a cavalryman's nose was smashed, and his eyeballs were hit, and his eyeballs popped out. I fell to the ground in pain. There are even worse ones that directly broke the armor, not only people, but also war horses. Corpses were piled up all over the ground, and human and horse blood were gathered together, and the smell was particularly pungent.

At this time, the Guan Ning army did not have any means of counterattack, and their archers finally began to shoot. A rain of arrows struck. There are also quite a few injuries to Ann's firecrackers. Another was shot in the throat and killed instantly.

When Xie Bin saw this, he hurriedly ordered the firecrackers to retreat temporarily, and they all entered the car formation.

In the efforts of these days, the partial van produced by An** has exceeded 200 vehicles, and the final batch of production has been particularly reinforced. On the outside of the carriage board, a thick layer of whale skin was covered, which was treated by a cobbler. The soft whale skin has become extremely tough, with such a layer of protection. Bows and arrows can't get in, and swords and guns can't cut through. Even ordinary bullets can resist, it's just a small tank.

In a line of two hundred vans, the spear and shield men hid behind, fiercely attacking the knight with the weapons in their hands, and the two sides were in a stalemate, and the musketeers had already reloaded. Ignoring the threat of a rain of arrows, they continued to shoot deadly bullets through the cracks.

Guan Ningjun is like a big wave, hitting the reef, and the enemy does not move!

Yang Ming's eyes were red, from the beginning of the war to the present, the losses of the Guan Ning army were at least more than five hundred, and they were all the most elite soldiers, if he hadn't been captured, he might have to wipe his neck and commit suicide, and he would not have the face to see Wu Sangui at all.

These Guanning troops arrived at the front of the car formation as scheduled, and they hurriedly dispersed, wanting to go around the car formation from both flanks and break through the defense line of An **.

This move has long been seen clearly by Gu Zhenhua on the Yuan Rong car, and the guns and artillery have already dealt a heavy blow to the morale of the Guan Ning army, and at this time, they should also be taught how powerful the An ** Iron Cavalry is.

Gu Zhenhua waved the command flag, and Yue Poyu, who had been on standby, finally waited for almost, and the two cavalry battalions were already impatient, and the war horses kept plowing the ground, hoping to show their skills.

Now that he had finally waited for the order, Yue Poyu led the cavalry out of the right flank, and they were like a black storm, blowing towards the Guanning army.

Guan Ningjun's attention was all on the firecrackers, and they didn't pay attention to An ** and such a powerful cavalry at all.

With an earth-shattering sound, Yue Poyu led the cavalry and swept up quickly, although they were all from the Guanning army, but Yue Poyu's equipment was completely different.

Each soldier held a spear of five or six feet in his hand, the tip of the spear flashed with cold light, and the rows of cavalry were firmly controlling the war horses, so that the team would not be chaotic.

Finally, when the last few dozen steps arrived, the war horse speed up a little, and the gun array stabbed towards the Guan Ning army.

It is very particular about using a gun on a horse, especially in a large formation, and you can't take the initiative to stab out, otherwise it will be overturned by the strength of the rebound, and you can only stab the gun out with the help of horsepower along the direction of the gun.

After Gu Zhenhua's improvement, the riding spear is now a disposable product, seeing that the spear stabbed the other party, the head of the spear went in, the force of the rebound was transmitted back, and the barrel of the gun was broken.

At this moment, the soldier abandoned a piece of the gun in his hand, immediately changed his knife, and attacked. This move was incompatible, and the degree was extremely fast, and under a round of attacks, more than 100 people fell under the horses of the Guan Ning army, and the losses on the An ** side were almost minimal.

Compared with the firecracker, the shock brought to them by the cavalry is even more amazing, even the Eight Banners may not be able to do this.

In a hurry, Yue Poyu rushed in with people, and the lethality was even more amazing, with a sharp scimitar cutting melons and vegetables, the casualties of Guan Ningjun's army rose sharply.

At this time, the artillery was readjusted, and the Franc machine guns and tiger squat guns were all replaced with grapeshot shells and scattered shells, and the dense rain of bullets rained down into the sky, covering two or three hundred people in one round.

What's even worse is that the firecrackers regrouped and fought from both ends of the formation, firing fierce bullets at the Guan Ning army in the middle, and the casualties rose in a straight line.

Yuan Zongdi took the remnants of the defeated army to a mound, ascended condescendingly, and watched the battle between the two sides, An ** is very strong, which Yuan Zongdi knows in his heart, but he is not sure what Cheng dΓΉ has reached.

In Yuan Zongdi's view, this may be a battle between dragons and tigers, and it is remarkable that An ** can block the cavalry of the Qing army. But when he really arrived on the battlefield, Yuan Zongdi was so shocked that he broke out in a cold sweat. Liu Zhong on the side didn't even dare to blink his eyelids, staring at the battlefield.

In all fairness, the Guanning army is unparalleled in iron and cavalry, and its momentum is amazing, even comparable to that of the Qing army. But in the face of the fire-fighting artillery-based An**, they became lambs to the slaughter, the more heroic they were, the more they hit the front, the faster they were killed and wounded.

Firearms have greatly simplified warfare, bravery has no value, martial arts have no use, even if it is a man with steel and iron bones, as long as he takes a bullet, he will hate the battlefield.

Especially after the cavalry was dispatched, the battle had turned into a one-sided massacre, and the Guanning army began to rout under multiple blows, and more and more people joined the ranks of deserters despite the supervision of the rear.

"Master Hou, let's not look at it, otherwise the credit will be snatched away by An **."

Yuan Zongdi nodded, "Okay, let's go out of our evil anger and kill the enemy with me!" ”

The Dashun army rushed out and swept towards the battlefield, at this time the main combat strength of the Guanning army had lost more than 1,500 people, such a tragic sacrifice, no one could bear it, Yang Ming also had to flee in a hurry under the protection of the soldiers. Behind him, Yue Poyu led the men and horses to bite and chase after him.

Yuan Zongdi and Liu Zhong worked hard to fight against the wind, these rogues are better than An **, and they run harder than An **.

"Grandpa Guo, I think we will be responsible for fighting in the future, let them be responsible for cleaning up the battlefield, this distribution is good." Fang Jianming said with a smile.

"Everyone is still an ally, don't chase these anymore. Tell the brothers to be sober and put away all the war horses, this is the most valuable. ”

Yue Polu chased out more than 20 miles with his men and horses, and Yang Ming was defeated with the remnants of the army, less than 1,000 people, and fled back to Qinyang in a hurry. After some counting, a total of more than 1,700 Guanning troops were killed, more than 1,500 were captured, more than 1,000 others escaped, 2,300 war horses were captured, more than 2,000 pairs of armor of various types, and the rest of the bows and arrows were not counted.

Yuan Zongdi and Liu Zhong also came back with their men and horses, and bowed to Gu Zhenhua from afar.

"Ji Guogong, the military is powerful, we are served!"

"Hahaha. The two generals are too polite, we are all allies, don't say these polite words. Yang Ming came over with men and horses, interrogated the prisoners, they and Wu Sangui are only two days away, in my opinion, they should capture Wei Hui first, take the puppet Qing Henan governor Luo Xiujin, Wei Hui and Huaiqing together as the Yellow River barrier, what do the two generals think?
