The recruits recruited by the Shengjing General's Mansion have basically never fought, and the very few who have fought with the Japanese army with Iktanga are mostly playing soy sauce, and the so-called experience is basically equal to zero.

After forming an army, the training of these soldiers is pitiful, even if there is a diligent and responsible general to lead, but they can't do the Cheng dΓΉ of one exercise a day, let alone every time they are responding to stories and acting like to fool people and themselves.

Every soldier has no experience in firing a few bullets, and if he is able to aim and shoot in accordance with the training rules and regulations with a clear mind on the battlefield, one percent is considered good. As soon as the cannon sounded, even the hundredth became a headless fly.

The Qing army under the command of Chengshun suddenly heard the explosion in front of them, and then saw the rising smoke cloud, and panicked as if they had blown up a hornet's nest. I don't know who shouted at the top of his voice inside: "My mother, there is a cannon, get out of the way!" ”

The already chaotic team immediately broke up! The soldiers on the two wings who had just been separated scattered in the hall, and some of the hidden spies of the revolutionary army mixed in took the opportunity to make trouble, shouting and shouting: "Hurry up and escape!" If you run slowly, you will be bombarded by the cannon, and your soul will be scattered and you can't be reincarnated! ”

"Ambush! Dog's day deliberately dug a pit to harm us, hurry up and find a place to hide! ”

"Such a powerful gun, can't be stopped, can't be stopped! It's too late to ....... ”

In the panic of people, such a commotion is the most likely to cause a commotion in the group. The officers of the Qing army, who also have little experience in leading troops, are all six gods and no masters, so how can they react? Not only could they stop the soldiers who turned around and fled. Even he was dragged back by the loyal pro-soldier Ma Ben'er. This toss-up. It's a complete mess!

Chengshun Deputy Dutong is experienced after all, and after a short period of confusion, he suddenly came back to his senses and yelled: "Don't panic!" The rebels were all blocked by our vanguard army, and they couldn't get through. All give Lao Tzu calm, calm! ”

…… Where can I calm down? They had been out of camp since dawn in the morning, and had stumbled through the mire for twenty miles, and were exhausted from exhaustion. Even more hungry, let alone fighting. He didn't even have the strength to camp.

Now that there is a sudden shelling, few people can pick themselves up and rush forward.

That's how powerful the cannon is. In the past, the Qing army had only seen small-caliber camp guns, bronze or steel cast artillery, using black propellant to hit solid projectiles, which sounded dull and filled with gunsmoke, but the lethality was extremely slight, and the effect of using it to strengthen the momentum was more than the opportunity.

They have always been in awe of this thing - not to mention that there is not a single person in the Qing army who can really use it to run, and most of them are not able to aim at it indiscriminately. As long as it can start, this is considered a master.

But in the Sino-Japanese War, the First Division of the New Army led by Yang Hao showed them an advanced and terrible artillery. Even a mountain gun of 75mm caliber. The grenades that were shot out exploded in one piece! The larger-caliber 122mm guns and the 150mm guns removed from the batteries were used as great killers for siege when equipped with grenades. As soon as the fire went down, the loud noise shook the earth, the explosion swept across a radius of more than 100 meters, and more than a dozen cannons opened fire together, which was the amazing effect of "one cannon eroding dozens of miles".

I have seen it with my own eyes, and I respect it like a fairy method. I haven't seen it, and I'm even more scared by the exaggerated effects of the rumors and have nightmares. The Qing army in Shengjing spread by word of mouth that the revolutionary army has a powerful cannon that can blow up and sink a 10,000-ton warship at once! Used on land, a cannon can raze half of Shengjingcheng to the ground.

Now they were sent out to reinforce Jinzhou to meet the revolutionary army, and the well-informed officers received the grapevine that the revolutionary army was attacking like a bamboo, and they went down the Shanhai Pass in one day and reached the city of Jinzhou in three or five days. What is it, it's this powerful artillery!

Of course, the defenders deliberately released water or even surrendered, and it was too demoralizing to spread it. As a result, the power of the cannons of the revolutionary army was unmatched by rumors. In this way, soldiers who have never fought can muster the courage to fight!

The 60 mortars and 82 recoilless guns in front all fired grenades, and the attack effect was not real from a distance, but the neighing of the war horses and the terrible screams of the soldiers could be heard clearly. A tragic scene like a hell of a sea of blood suddenly appeared in the heads of the Qing army behind, and they were so frightened that they couldn't possess their bodies!

Chengshun saw that this posture was no longer good, scolded and greeted his own personal guards, scattered his horse and rushed into the crowd, brandished the whip into a phantom, and crackled and whipped it randomly. Scolding while smoking: "Bastard bastard! You are eating the military salary of the imperial court, and now it's time to do your best to repay the service, all go back to Lao Tzu and prepare for battle! ”

Many people were swept away by him, and subconsciously squatted down to obey orders. But most people will be difficult to hold on to for a while, and they will still run back in a hurry, rushing the queue behind them into a mess.

I don't know who pulled the trigger in a panic, and a crisp sound of "pop" suddenly sounded, and someone shouted at the top of his voice: "Oh no!" Someone shoots black guns! ”

When he landed, many people followed closely and shot into the sky, and this toss was fatal! Regardless of whether they saw the enemy clearly or not, they subconsciously shot out the bullets in the guns, and the crisp banging sound was continuous, and the turbid smoke rose one after another, stirring into a pot of porridge.

Chengshun vice capital unified array creepy! He is a cunning man, and his first reaction is that there is a problem here, and someone is deliberately causing trouble in the team! Needless to say, its purpose must have been to take the opportunity to completely destroy the morale of the army, and the troops would collapse without a fight!

He yelled, "Don't shoot!" It's all fucking to Lao Tzu's assistant! ”

At the same time, his eyes were round, looking for the bastards that were clearly wrong. At this moment, a soldier who was only a few dozen meters away from him suddenly turned his gun, aimed at his chest and pulled the trigger sharply!

"Smack!"

The dull sound of gunfire was not noticeable in the chaos, and Cheng Soon only felt as if he had been punched in the chest, and his muscular body shook violently on the horse's back. Slowly look down. I saw a cloud of blood on my chest spread rapidly. Dip the foam nail through the cotton nails.

He raised his head blankly, his eyes swept across the wilderness without focus, the whip in his hand trembled in the air, and he whispered: "Your Majesty, I forgive you for not being able to give you filial piety!" ”

He threw himself backwards and fell off his horse.

The soldiers holding his reins realized that something was wrong, and rushed over in a panic to surround him, picked up the corpse and shouted desperately: "My lord! What's wrong with you, my lord?! ”

Looking at the bullet hole that was gushing out and bleeding. Everything is understood. Seeing that the deputy commander was dying, he couldn't help but feel sad, and shouted with a howl: "My lord has been shot!" ”

Then someone shouted in a louder voice: "Oh no! Lord Fudutong is dead! Your Excellency is dead!"

This shout is completely fatal! The rout that had just been suppressed by the bullets of the pro-guard guards scattered again! This time, it didn't work for anyone to shout, and even many low-level leaders were mixed in, and they didn't even need guns, and they ran back in the field with their legs spread out!

The speed of the message spread faster than the human legs, and the chaos here made the Qing army behind see it clearly, and heard the frightened shouts from afar, and the relay spread three or five times. When it came to the rear army, it became "the forward was ambushed by the enemy, and the deputy commander was unfortunately killed."

A snake can't be without a head. The bird has no head and does not fly, and the leader of the Qing army is dead, so don't expect anything good at all.

According to their military system, the deputy commander is the supreme commander, and the lower level is directly in charge of more than a dozen battalion officers, and the second level is to lead four or five sentry officers each. There are more than 5,000 people, and there are only sixty or seventy officers in total, so it's strange that they can manage it!

The panic here was like a boulder smashed into a pond, and the waves spread in all directions. Looking down from the sky, you can find that the Qing soldiers wearing black uniforms first suddenly spread out to both sides, and then scattered like splashing muddy water, splashing all over the mountains. Then as the guns rang out, the cavalry and infantry mixed together, and you scrambled to turn your head and sweep back, forming a strange mushroom-like line that scattered the stagnant soldiers and horses behind layer by layer.

Looking further back, it didn't take long for the troops dragging their baggage and artillery to become a mess, and with the impact of the rout in front, they became uncontrollable.

On the hot air balloon that flew slowly from afar, the Scout looked curiously at the chaos below, and on a whim, he pulled out a grenade, pulled it open, and threw it into the pile.

The wooden-handled grenade rolled down with smoke and a boom. It was also a coincidence, just in the middle of the cavalry, a battalion officer was caught off guard and was hit in the head by a fragment. The frightened horse neighed and stood up, tore his body off, and then rushed forward, only to drag the body on the ground and crash into the crowd!

A sharp-eyed person looked up, and when he got on the ground, he howled: "Ahhh Bombs are falling from the sky! ”

The surrounding Qing army was busy and saw that the hot air balloon that had flown overhead at some point had become extraordinarily large because of the reduction in altitude, snorting and spewing fireworks, and its shape was like a legendary monster!

Now it's time to die. Regardless of whether there was a little bit of rationality before, the last luck was also completely destroyed, and the Qing army let out a ghostly wolf howl, and one by one squeezed out of the bones and scum with infinite strength, scattering their feet like flying towards the rear to seize the road!

The scout on the hot air balloon basket was inexplicable, and muttered with wide eyes: "Our grenade still has this effect?" One went down and blew up the camp...... These grandsons are also timid, aren't they? ”

To say that these soldiers in their twenties are about the same as bear children, they don't care about it when they get excited, and they drop two grenades casually. Successive explosions and fireworks rose in the rout, and countless Qing troops jumped up like live fish out of the water, howling and running in all directions, but this time, even the baggage team and artillery team behind also fled together!

At this time, the pioneer battalion, which was trying its best to speed up the repair of the fortifications, received a report, and Ryazan's eyes immediately widened when he heard it: "What is it?" The Qing army bombed the camp and fled?! What kind of tactic is this, it shouldn't be a deliberate attempt to create an illusion to lure us into the bait...... Not like? Okay, I got it. ”

Instructor Gao Xiaoshan was still old-fashioned, and muttered: "You can't be greedy for merit, who knows if the enemy army has other plans?" This is just a firefight, and our artillery has not hit the back, so they should not collapse lightly. ”

Ryazan's eyes blinked for a moment. Grab the radio and call the blocking company in front: "Immediately find out the movement of the enemy forces opposite you." If signs of collapse are found. Charge now and test it! ”

Gao Xiaoshan was taken aback and hurriedly said, "Isn't it too risky?" ”

Ryazan gritted his teeth and sneered: "Don't look down on them too much, it's just a group of rabble with no fighting spirit, you can know if it's true or false." ”

At this time, the blocking company had actually discovered the anomaly on the other side. The battalion of Qing troops was hit by shells and machine gun fire, and they had already lost their fighting spirit, so they timidly ran back, and then found that the army had fled one step ahead of them!

The battalion officer who was born in the yellow flag immediately quit. ripped off the top and put it on the ground, and scolded: "His grandmother's bastard king eight lambs!" The co-authorship is to let Lao Tzu put the thunder on his head in front of him, so as to make room for them to run the ducks, I bah! I don't want to wait. The brothers and the master collected the troops together. ”

No one is happy to do the work of charging forward, and one can lose his head if he is not careful! No matter what posthumous seal is given afterwards, the Nima people are dead and still talk about a fart!

Originally, for the sake of insurance, Iktanga installed a large number of flag men as officers in the army. His intentions are good, used to protect the ancestral mausoleum, the big guy must have to work hard to repay the service, right? At the same time, it can also suppress those soldiers from the Han Chinese or Mongolians.

But he forgot that the banner man of this year was not the elite of the Eight Banners two hundred years ago. I can't pick out a few decent soldiers. So many flag men and officers mixed in the ranks, not only did they not play a good role. On the contrary, one or two did not listen to orders, drank the blood of soldiers, ate black money, went to the kiln, smoked big cigarettes, and did all kinds of evil.

When it comes to the battlefield, these bastards can only be used to fight a tailwind battle, and when they see that the wind and fire are not right, they can run faster than anyone else!

The anxious battalion officer turned his head and retreated first, but he pitted the cavalry who had suffered a big loss on both wings! The platoon of soldiers and the fire platoon immediately reacted, and without saying a word, they chased the ass with a firepower, and then rushed out to outflank the two wings, and the machine guns and submachine guns fired together, and the two cavalry in a dilemma were beaten to pieces!

Ryazan's order was given, and the company commander quickly got up and gave chase forward with two platoons! That is, the road surface is really bad and the running is not moving, and there is not much distance between the enemy and us. But in general, the soldiers of the revolutionary army were too tall after all, and their bodies were much stronger than those of the Qing army. One is chasing bravely, and the other is as anxious as a lost dog.

It didn't take long for many frightened Qing soldiers to run, so they simply squatted on the side of the road, raised their guns and surrendered!

The company commander left a squad to collect the prisoners, and continued to chase after dozens of people, and soon came to the place where Chengshun was hit by a black gun, and took a look at the breakthrough, good guys, there were wriggling black figures all over the mountains. He couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva, and cried out in a lost voice: "My mother, what's wrong?" ”

Looking up, the hot air balloon in the sky actually had the audacity to lower its altitude and shouted with a loudspeaker above the heads of the rout: "Put down your weapons, surrender your guns and don't kill!" The revolutionary army treats prisoners preferentially! If you dare to resist again, you will be killed by bombs! ”

Not to mention, this hand is really in charge, in the fields, in the ditches, on the side of the road, countless Qing soldiers are either squatting or kneeling, either holding guns, or holding their heads in their hands, honestly not daring to move.

The company commander's eyes were bloodshot, and he roughly counted the number of people in more than a thousand! He has nothing else to do, and I'm afraid he will have to work for half a day just to capture the prisoners. The matter was too big, and he hurriedly telegraphed to the battalion headquarters.

After hearing this, Ryazan's smiling mouth grinned back molars: "What am I talking about?" Chief Yang called our old first division over, purely to kill chickens. Comrades, stop building fortifications at once, the fire company will stay on guard, and the others will take prisoners with me! ”

The instructor didn't know what to say if he wanted to persuade him, and no matter how conservative he was, it was impossible not to believe the multifaceted confirmation of aerial reconnaissance, ground assault, and hidden reconnaissance personnel.

So the two companies of infantry rushed forward after them, and except for the rifles, they didn't bring any of the heavier weapons, and one or two of them ran like a fly under their feet!

For the rest of the afternoon, the soldiers of the entire battalion had no time to do anything else, and they were all desperately trying to gather the rout. Later, they caught more and more, so they simply let them carry the weapons with the bolts off their backs, and lined up along the road with their hands raised to march to the Great Black Mountain Fort. The remaining company of fire was instead repurposed as a temporary guard.

When it was almost dark, there were two thousand captives cramming the small fortress, and there was still a sparse rout of troops coming here.

Ryazan saw that he was also a little big, and decisively stopped the pursuit and relaunched the defense on the spot.

Yang Hao couldn't help but smile when he received the report: "It seems that the Manchu Qing Dynasty has a tradition of being afraid of bombs, okay, we have saved thousands of labors in road construction, and now it's all right." ”

Shi Jianfei didn't know why, shook his head helplessly, and ordered the rear troops to follow immediately.

But he didn't know that at the end of the Qing Dynasty in this world, the officials of the Manchu court were very tormented by the earth-made bombs of the revolutionaries. Later, someone with two duck eggs and a bomb could take a city. Such absurd things can happen, which shows how rotten the army and officials in the late Qing Dynasty were.

Just one day later, the forward of the revolutionary army advanced straight to the Xinmin Hall, looking at Shengjing across the Liao River.

Because this road is advancing too fast, it has caused the original two-way parallel plan to be misplaced. After careful consideration, Yang Hao ordered the troops on the left to suspend the attack, and instructed the right side to intensify the attack on Haicheng and Liaoyang.

Compared with the first-line battlefield of Shanhaiguan, the first-line defense of Haicheng and Liaoyang is obviously more tenacious. But after all, they couldn't withstand the approaching bombardment of the cannons, coupled with the volley intimidation of the airship hot air balloon, the Qing army without any fighting spirit broke and fled one after another, and finally all of them were driven out after three days.

After that, Iktanga took less than 20,000 horses and beasts to Fengtianfu, and he was in a panic.
