Chapter 467: Here's a Chance

For ordinary post-Jin soldiers, a monocular is a very luxurious piece of equipment. However, for the commander of the Houjin army, it can definitely be said to be a very ordinary equipment, so with the help of a monocular, the commander of the Houjin army saw very clearly the results of a round of artillery bombardment under his command.

When the roaring cannon still echoed in my ears, I was full of excited shouts. Already roared out of his mouth.

"Okay, good fight...... In this way, the king continued to fire cannons and repelled these tiger and leopard troops, and the king must be rewarded......"

The words of the commander of the Houjin army were like a dose of stimulant, which made hundreds of gunners instantly become hot.

Amid the cries of several Tartar officers of the artillery team, they immediately began to reload the artillery in front of them.

However, this scorching heat of theirs did not last long?

The first round of shells they fired had just been discharged, and on the heavy artillery position of the Tiger and Par Army, which had already been set up, thousands of gunners were all gathered around the cannon, adjusting the muzzle of the gun, and loading the shell......

When the second round of shells fired by the Houjin army once again set off a blood mist in the middle of the musket array. A total of ninety cannons have all raised their black holes.

"Open the artillery ......" The commander of the independent heavy artillery regiment gave the order, and the flag bearer standing beside the regiment commander began to wave his own command flag held high.

Subsequently, all kinds of artillery orders were shouted from the mouths of the respective battalion and company commanders...

Just when the atmosphere of the heavy artillery position instantly became solidified. The sound of cannonballs shaking the mountains suddenly sounded on the position.

Subsequently. Sharp shells whistling. It began to sound over the battlefield.

Ninety scorching flowering bombs. Wrapped in clusters of orange-red flames, it burst out of its chamber and flew into the sky......

In the blink of an eye, these flowering shells whistling over the musket array flew over the Tartar artillery positions.

At this time, a series of even more piercing whistling sounds sounded directly on the battlefield.

Ninety flowering bombs, like ninety pops falling from the sky. At an increasing speed, smashing towards the ground.

Compared with the shelling effect of the Tartars, the effect of the simultaneous explosion ......of 90 flowering shells can only be described in one word, that is, the earth-shattering ......

An earth-shattering explosion rang out into the air, and a fireball mixed with a large amount of black smoke quickly enveloped more than a fifth of the Tartar's artillery.

To be sure, under the baptism of these fireballs and fragments of countless shells. The shrouded tartars, even if they are not blown into minced flesh with no bones left. It will also be blown up to the point that the corpse is covered in moon holes.

In the face of the sudden attack in front of him, the heat that was still hanging over the face of the Tartar just now. Directly covered in gloom and panic.

Not only an ordinary gunner of the Tartar artillery team, but also a commander of the Houjin Army who had high hopes for the artillery team under his command. The face that was still satisfied and full of smiles just now has been replaced by shock and gloom......

The use of fixed-loading flowering shells, and the groundbreaking use of rear-loading ammunition, in terms of rate of fire, is definitely not comparable to the old artillery in the hands of the Tartars.

Therefore, the shocked expression on the face of the commander of the Houjin Army has not yet shown the slightest sign of dissipation. The second round of flowering bullets fired by the Haw Par Army has already flown into the sky again with a whistling sound......

"Boom ......" After another series of violent shell explosions sounded on the battlefield, more than a dozen artillery pieces, once again shrouded in fireballs and gunsmoke, disappeared in front of the commander of the rear army......

At this time, the commander of the rear army, who had a gloomy face, finally woke up from the shock.

After slamming his clenched fist on the back of the war horse beside him, he scolded loudly: "The cunning Han people actually used artillery at this time and shelled our artillery positions...... I'm going to kill them......"

After finishing, the commander of the rear army, who had seen the artillery cluster fire for the first time, directly opened his mouth with anger and ordered: "Open fire, fire at the position of the Tiger and Par Army...... The Hawpar Army can destroy our artillery, and we can destroy the Hawpar Army's artillery......"

The order of the commander of the Houjin army was given, but no one carried it out.

Because, the commander of the rear army, who had a heavy army, could not see the huge gap between the two artillery units, but the battle-hardened generals under his command were very aware of the huge gap......

As soon as the commander's untimely general order was issued, a general stood up and reminded the commander next to him: "Please think twice, the slave has something to say......

"The minions thought that our artillery team could not be the opponent of the artillery of the Tiger and Par Army...... Therefore, no matter how we counterattack, the artillery team will not be able to escape the end of being wiped out by the Haw Par Army......"

"In that case, we can only abandon the artillery team and find a way to inflict heavy losses on the Haw Par Army musketeers and cavalry units."

Hearing this, the brows of the commander of the rear army subconsciously furrowed.

However, he did not express his dissatisfaction because of this. Otherwise, he would not have been appointed as the commander by Huang Taiji, leading tens of thousands of Houjin iron cavalry to attack the Liaodong Peninsula and expand the territory for Houjin.

After taking a deep breath, he asked the lieutenant general beside him, "Then what do you think?"

"Lord Wang, the idea of the minions is to take advantage of the favorable opportunity when the artillery of the Tiger and Leopard Army is attracted by the artillery team of our army, and immediately send out iron agents to attack the attacking troops of the Tiger and Leopard Army from both flanks."

"With the strong melee combat ability of the Golden Iron Cavalry behind me, as long as the warriors can rush into the formation of the Tiger and Leopard Army, the warriors can slaughter all sides on the battlefield, destroy the Tiger and Leopard Army that attacked us, and achieve the final victory in the battle."

The eyes of the commander of the rear army lit up, and he said to himself: "It is indeed a good way to launch a surprise attack on the attacking troops of the Tiger and Leopard Army from both flanks" "Judging from the battlefield situation, the musketeers and artillery of the Tiger and Leopard Army, which have the most powerful defensive strength, are concentrated on the frontal battlefield, and in the face of attacks from both flanks, the only thing that the Tiger and Leopard Army can use is only five or six thousand cavalry."

"So, as soon as we rush to the flanks of the Haw Par Army's attacking force, the Haw Par Army will touch the cavalry to intercept us. Regardless of whether the warriors can eventually rush into the Haw Par Army's offensive forces and strangle with them. The five or six thousand cavalry brought by the Haw Par Army will definitely be strangled with us, and at the very least, we can also wipe out the cavalry units of the Haw Par Army. ”

"So, the idea you said is definitely a surefire attack."

"Just do as you say, immediately dispatch 6,000 cavalry warriors, divide them into two, attack them from the two flanks of the Haw Par Army's attacking troops, and destroy the Haw Par Army's cavalry units."

"Minions Command"

"Boom" 6,000 cavalry burst out, and the deafening sound of horses' hooves on the battlefield immediately drowned out all other sounds on the battlefield.

Later, the Jin Tiecai cavalry swept towards him, and the 6,000 cavalry guarding the two flanks of the infantry division of the Tiger and Leopard Army met him without the slightest hesitation under the order of Wei Zheng.

The 6,000 muskets of the 6,000 Iron Cavalry of the Haw Par Army inflicted losses on the Tartars in a short period of time.

However, the Tartars, who were confident in the melee combat ability of the Iron Cavalry under his command, still did not hesitate to collide with the Iron Cavalry of the Tiger and Par Army.

In this way, a very tragic close-range battle slowly unfolded on the battlefield.

The sudden, and expected, cavalry fight did not affect the offensive of the Haw Par Army.

Six thousand musketeers, still under the cover of the artillery behind them, advanced backwards step by step.

At a distance of two hundred paces, dozens of heavy mortars from six heavy mortar batteries quickly set up the artillery.

Then, under the orders of their respective company commanders, they chose their own targets to attack and rained flower shells on the Tartar infantry hundreds of paces away.

Under the order of the commander of the rear army, he was ready to meet the battle, and among the more than 10,000 Tartar infantry who lined up in a neat formation, a ball of fire, mixed with a large amount of black smoke, immediately rose up.

Wherever the shells went, the Tartar infantry around the shells were all swept to the ground by the shells in pieces.

As the defending side, he was attacked one step ahead of the battle.

In the face of another change in front of him, the smile on the face of the commander of the rear army that had just appeared was immediately replaced by solemnity.

Without thinking about it, he roared at the adjutant general beside him: "The artillery of the Haw Par Army is too powerful, let them continue to bomb like this, without the infantry of the Haw Par Army attacking, the more than 10,000 soldiers around us will suffer heavy losses and collapse directly on the battlefield."

"Cavalry, immediately send out all the remaining 4,000 iron cavalry, bypass the cavalry battle battlefield, and directly attack the infantry division of the Tiger and Leopard Army. No matter what method you use, this king must rush into the infantry phalanx of the Tiger and Leopard Army and fight with them."

As soon as the roar of the commander of the rear army fell, the lieutenant general opened his mouth to remind: "Please think twice about the four thousand iron cavalry, it is the only cavalry left by the prince." Once they are sent out, there will be no cavalry around the prince to escort them."

At this time, the commander of the Houjin Army did not listen to the persuasion, and insisted on ordering: "Just use the cavalry, only the cavalry may rush into the phalanx of the Tiger and Leopard Army to replenish the troops, as for these infantry around us, if even the cavalry can't rush through, let these reinforcements attack, there is no difference from sending them to death."

"Immediately execute the general's order, the remaining 4,000 strange soldiers, with a thousand people as a unit, want to attack the Tiger and Leopard Army infantry formation from different directions, I don't believe that after the Tiger and Leopard Army's firearms unit is divided into four, it can still block the attack of the Houjin Iron Cavalry."

Although the lieutenant general felt that something was wrong, when he saw the appraisal expression on the commander's face. Still forcibly suppressed all kinds of doubts and worries in his heart, and shouted the order: "The slave led the order in order to rush into the tiger and leopard army formation, the slave personally commanded the warriors to launch an attack on the tiger and leopard army formation."

"If you can't rush into the tiger and leopard army formation, the minions will come to see the prince"

Soon, at the side of the commander of the rear army, there were only more than 10,000 infantry left who were in disarray. (To be continued......)
