Thank you for the reward of Tears and Red Dust 5, and thank Brother Xu Xian for the reminder vote~

For the understanding of the firearm, as well as the future popularity and lethality of this weapon, no one is more familiar with it than Song Qing, unless modern people are interested in cold weapons, otherwise as long as it comes to war, the first reaction is basically a gun, a little bit of the history of firearms, you will know that the earliest formed firearm in the road is called a firearm, or called an arquebus, that is, the weapons used by the current Xuzhou soldiers.

The flintlock pistol now has a prototype, but because the gear cost is still relatively expensive, Song Qing did not have a large-scale armament, but only made a dozen rods to let the craftsmen continue to ponder, and his firecracker brigade all used well-made arquebuses, before in Henan to exterminate the Liukou, this army has played a great role, whether it is to deal with Zhang Xianzhong's 50,000 people, or to fight with Gao Yingxiang more than 200,000 people, the firecracker troops can almost be said to play the role of Dinghai Shenpin, so this time to Xuanda to fight with Houjin, Naturally, it has also become the most valued unit.

Houjin has actually seen firecrackers, after all, this thing is not a new thing now, many Ming army troops are equipped, but because of quality problems, no one has used it, but the most well-equipped Shenji battalion still has a certain role in the battle of the capital, although in the opinion of Huang Taiji, this thing is far worse than artillery, but Houjin finally knows that there is such a weapon, but no one pays attention to it, so when they fight with the Guanning army, The firearms on the other side really didn't play a role.

This can't be blamed on the Guanning Army, as a force famous for cavalry and mad infantry, the Guanning Army pays attention to galloping horses and cutting people with big blades, this is an absolutely short-tempered army, even when there is no war in peacetime, everyone has to toss and toss. When they drink too much wine, a sentence full of the flavor of the local dialect 'what do you see', can provoke a bloody battle, it is completely the presence of the wolf clan in the Han people, this kind of army will not use weapons such as firecrackers too much, and even many people think that thing is a bit sissy, even if the man's husband can't straddle the horse and slash the knife, he has to rush out of the ground with a knife to cut people, and take a fire gun to put a shot from afar?

Therefore, those who act as firecrackers in the Guanning Army are basically the obsolete products of hand-to-hand combat troops. The courage is naturally not very strong, many times the Houjin soldiers just started to charge, and they didn't get to the place at all, and the musketeers had already fired all their ammunition, and they were not the kind of people who paid attention to three-stage shooting, they all shot with the crowd, so after the shooting was over, if the other party rushed over with the cavalry, they could basically exit directly. Even if the infantry rushed, with that level of training, it is estimated that there is no chance of a second salvo.

After various reasons are entangled, the fire gun is almost a chicken rib role in the Guanning army. And the Houjin soldiers, who had been fighting with the Guan Ning army all year round, didn't take this thing seriously, and when they reached a distance of fifteen zhang, they saw that the other party suddenly began to shoot. They all subconsciously thought that the firecrackers in Xuzhou were nervous, so they should not be able to fire yet, and then the firecrackers should retreat. Replaced by those who can really fight, many people are thinking that these firecrackers are actually similar to the role of drummers, but they come out to create some movement.

But the moment the lead bullet hit the body, whether it was the one who was shot or the one who was lucky enough to dodge, they all found that their idea was very wrong, the existence of these firecrackers was not just to create a movement, to announce that the war was about to begin, they were able to create damage, and as this idea became more and more profound, the lethality of the creation became greater and greater, but by the time they understood this truth, it was already too late.

Four thousand skilled firecrackers, using well-made, will not blow up, the range has reached the highest level of firearms, and in the case that the opponent has entered the effective range of fire, with three shots at the same time, the effect is outrageous, when they beat the rogue before, they have actually reflected their terrifying role, when the cannon bombardment, the two thousand gold soldiers still have the courage to shout forward, but after encountering the almost endless attacks of the firecrackers, they were completely defeated, I hardly know what to do next.

If it is changed to other places, against other troops, although this degree of hesitation will also cause losses, but it cannot be regarded as fatal, but against the fire guns, the only way is to move forward or backward, the most stupid is to stand in place and don't know what to do, just a blink of an eye, the stupid people standing in place have lost hundreds of people, including those Zhenyi, and several people have died, but no one knows what to do now, until the sound of Ming Jin collecting troops came from the military array behind him, They hurriedly retreated.

The price of withdrawing was another few hundred lives, a full 2,000-strong attack team, just a short charge, it had already lost more than half of the men and horses, for the depopulated Houjin, although this loss was not fatal, but it also felt distressing.

The most distressed is Dolgon, because he just gave the order, so most of the people who rushed out of the white flag are the people who inlaid the white flag, even if the two white flag owners are brothers-in-law, and the two white flags are somewhat indistinguishable from each other, but he still feels very sad, and he is also a little dissatisfied with the gaze of Duoduo, although he knows that it is not Duoduo's fault, but he still thinks that if it is not for the recklessness of this younger brother, he will never suffer such a big loss, after all, according to his usual style of play, only a few hundred people will be sent in the initial stage, It's definitely not going to be two thousand.

It's just that deep down in his heart, he also knows very well that just now, sending hundreds of people over is also annihilated, and the thousands of iron pipes on the opposite side look prosaic, but it is daunting to fight, he always has a very ominous premonition, that kind of thing may even wipe out the entire Dajin Kingdom, and kill all of their clansmen who rely on swords and bows to fish and hunt in the white mountains and black waters, although he quickly buried this idea deeply, but some ideas can hardly be forgotten as long as they appear, Moreover, Song Qing's thousands of firecrackers were watching him from the other side.

Some people are born to do great things, such as Dolgon, among the dozen or so sons of Nuer Hachi, the best one is Huang Taiji and him. The rest of the people are more or less incomparable, which is also the reason why Huang Taiji is extremely wary of him, and then specific to the battlefield in front of him, Duoduo, who is determined to take revenge, has already been frightened by the fire team in front of him, as well as his own astonishing casualties, and his brain burned by hatred has also sobered up, but for a moment and a half, he doesn't know what to do, but it is Dolgon, who has been trying his best to prevent him from recklessly fighting, and gave the order to attack.

"Sukh Saha, Ubai. Tubahai, Zhun Tai, bring all the cavalry, give Ye Chong to kill them, the infantry follow behind, and you will go up after the cavalry rushes over, Sabu Su is staring at the back, whoever dares to retreat will kill whoever is killed, and the whole army will follow Ye Chong! ”

A barrage of orders went down. The entire Houjin Brigade moved, although Duoduo had more face than Dolgon in front of Huang Taiji, but among these bannermen with two white flags, Dolgon was undoubtedly the backbone. After all, in the confrontation between the two white flags and the two yellow flags over the years, it has always been Dolgon who has come forward, but Duoduo has been closer to Huang Taiji, so in this critical occasion. Dorgon's orders were clearly more effective.

However, Dodor didn't have any other opinions, he knew that his flaw was inexperienced, and it was okay to charge into battle. Even if he doesn't do as well as Aobai, he can be regarded as a general in the Houjin Array, but in terms of overall combat and troop arrangement, he is not as good as Dolgon, even if the latter is actually best at scheming, but he is always better than him in terms of motivation, which the two of them know each other in their hearts.

Besides, his performance just now was indeed not very good, he looked like he was stupid by Song Qing, he was not qualified as the commander of the army, and he didn't have any good ideas, and he didn't even know what to do, at this time Dolgon ordered the whole army to charge, which was also a more in line with his heart's attack, but he didn't understand a little, his brother, who had always been very cautious, suddenly became so fierce for Lu.

The reason why Dolgon did this was really forced to be helpless, he also knew that the enemy situation was unknown now, and it was a loss to rashly put all his strength into it, but the problem was that Song Qing had been stunned for a while, and if he didn't get back some face immediately, he was afraid that the morale of the army would fall to the bottom, and if he continued to use a similar tactic of adding oil, the losses would be further increased, and it would also make the morale even lower, which was a vicious circle.

But if you choose to retreat directly, even if this battle is defeated, Houjin has almost never lost a battle when he enters the customs, and after this trip in, he is also unscrupulous to fight wherever he wants, Suke Saha with two thousand cavalry dares to burn and plunder everywhere in Xuanfu, to put it bluntly, it is the infinite self-confidence that has been piled up many times, and the great Xuanfu has not dared to send troops to confront, to put it bluntly, it is the cowardice that has been piled up many times, and inertia has been formed.

If the troops are withdrawn this time, the inertia will be broken, for the post-Jin semi-slave regime with congenital underpopulation and comprehensive backwardness in culture and economy, once it loses the self-confidence of this barbaric form, what results await them can be imagined, but there are not many people who can see this, and it is estimated that only Dolgon can understand this truth in the two white flags, so he did not hesitate to order a general attack.

This hand made Song Qing also a little surprised, he planned to wear off the opponent's sharpness first, and then send troops to confront it head-on, after all, the Houjin soldiers are famous, it is indeed very difficult to fight, and now the Xuzhou soldiers are not playing alone, it is estimated that two or three people can deal with one of the people, that is, to deal with those coats are still a little certain, fighting is nothing more than a drum, and then decline, three and exhaustion routines, as long as the opponent's morale can be consumed for a while, and then the number of casualties will be less, But Dolgon, however, seemed to see his calculations and attacked directly.

Since this is the case, then there is only hard fighting, Song Qing immediately adjusted the lineup, and the archers were also transferred, and the twelve artillery pieces played the Hell March again, accompanied by the sound of the fire guns of the Lord of Yama fried beans, and fired recklessly at the cavalry of the brigade swarming on the opposite side, and a thousand archers also unceremoniously started their own salvo, against the cavalry this class, the sense of defense level is basically useless, because once the front is breached, there is no time to organize an attack at the back, it is better to let all the remote players play a role in the same place, Aim to kill as many enemies as possible.

The Houjin cavalry is indeed effective, even if the sound of artillery and firecrackers roars, those at the front have fallen off their horses, but the people behind have no intention of stopping, they are stepping on the corpses of their companions and continue to charge forward, especially those who are really Yi, the degree of courage can almost be described as inhuman, they don't seem to know what it means to be afraid, even if the people in front of them have just been beaten into a honeycomb by lead shots, they still charge along the same trajectory across the horse and knife, and the cavalry of more than 5,000 people is killed, Rao is Xuzhou's firecrackers are skilled, Nor can it stop them from moving forward.

It's just that this style of play makes Dolgon feel very distressed, from the beginning of the charge to the almost head-on contact, the cavalry of the two white flags has lost almost 2,000 people, since he followed his father and brothers into battle, he has never lost so many men in such a short period of time, but the closer to the other party, the faster this loss expands, because when advancing at a high speed at a long distance, the formation is still relatively large, but the closer the distance will be narrower, and the firecrackers don't even need to aim after the reloading, Guaranteed to hit the enemy, or at least the warhorse.

The power of this weapon opened Dorgon's eyes, he suddenly felt that these iron pipes that still could not stop the cavalry from advancing, could only slow down the speed and cause damage, and would become something that changed the way of war in the future, even in terms of current ability, it has become the king of weapons, probably the only one in this world that threatens them, in addition to the troops with the same equipment, there is only a large number of cavalry charges, and the speed of the infantry cannot rush at all, as long as the amount of gunpowder is enough, If there are firecrackers that can be replaced, no matter how many people are useless.

But this kind of thing that is ahead of the times is far from what he can figure out as a little Tunguska chieftain, and all he has to do now is to keep urging his troops to move forward, rush through the layers of white mist, and strive to engage the other side in hand-to-hand combat as soon as possible, that is what they are best at.

As soon as this thought appeared, I heard someone in the opposite army formation shouting: "The firecrackers retreat back, quickly change their equipment, the archers take five steps back and release their arrows, the spear formation immediately attacks, and the sword and shield soldiers are ready to fill the position!"
