Chapter 241: Sneak Attack?

Duoduo finally understood that Zhou Yuji's army was able to make Li Zicheng helpless in Shanxi, Zhou Yuji's artillery was too powerful, whether in terms of accuracy or power, Li Zicheng's artillery was simply not at the same level, and his red-clothed cannon was also scum, and the scum was a mess, which was equivalent to sending it to Zhou Yuji for nothing to practice the accuracy of artillery.

Will you be able to take down the trench in front of you?

For the first time, Duoduo, the prince of Yu of the Great Qing Dynasty, realized that he might become a disgrace to the warriors of Jianzhou, and his defeat seemed to be imminent.

With this trench, plus Zhou Yuji's too many artillery, coupled with the terrifying fire gun (the real horror Duoduo has not yet seen), as well as the courage of Zhou Yuji's soldiers, as well as the command of the generals, Zhou Huchen's tricks (Duoduo finally knew that Zhou Huchen had been fighting with him), Duoduo's head became bigger and bigger.

It is impossible to withdraw from the army, and Duoduo will never be able to withdraw from the army unless it is absolutely necessary, which will undoubtedly make him never able to turn over.

The loss of the red-coated cannon made Duoduo's mood gloomy, and he reluctantly summoned all the important generals, this is a mobilization, a mobilization to attack no matter what. Duoduo now needs the fastest attack, because his back road is no longer guaranteed, although he is not worried about what the enemy's naval army can do with his army of hundreds of thousands, but Duoduo has no choice but to attack as fast as possible.

Duoduo and Han Dai of the clan discussed the possibility of an overnight attack, but considering that a large-scale night attack was equivalent to an attack that was out of control, and a small-scale night attack was equivalent to sending soldiers to death, this idea was vetoed by both of them.

The most important leading generals Baiyitu, Tulai, Ashan, Ma Lashi, Shuo Nadai, Ilduqi, Wu Lachan and other Manchu and Mongolian generals, as well as Han generals Kong Youde, Geng Zhongming, Xu Dingguo and others gathered in Duoduo's Chinese army tent, this mobilization was jointly initiated by Duoduo and Han Dai of the clan.

The goal is to capture the trench in front, and there is no need to discuss this, but what we need to discuss today is how to take down the trench in front of us.

As the most important generals, Baiitu and Turai had the most say, after the explanations of Duoduo and Han Dai. Turai was the first to come forward and propose the old tactic, which was like an offensive and defensive battle in a swamp, aiming at a point and breaking through the enemy's defenses in one fell swoop.

Shang Shu Han Dai shook his head and objected: "The Ming army has too many firearms, especially too many artillery, plus firearms, I am afraid it will be difficult to capture." ”

Duoduo was noncommittal, because he and Han Dai already had a method of attack, which was similar to that of Thulai, and was waiting for someone to come up with it.

The generals of the Han army, Kong Youde, Geng Zhongming, Xu Dingguo and others, actually had no right to speak, and the Mongolian generals were like them, and these generals were auxiliaries. Their choice was to wait for the results of Zuihou, so several people did not speak at all.

At this time, Bai Yitu understood: "Lord Wang, the Ming army has many firearms, but this defense line is also very long, if our army adopts a scattered attack, the strength and firearms of the Ming army must also be dispersed, and then"

**********

The summer morning came early, and there was a light mist.

Liu Zhuzi got up early. His defense area is relatively west, and further west of this position is a huge lake, and the southwest of the lake is full of swamps and boundless reeds, so Liu Zhuzi's task is to defend his trench. He didn't have to bother with the west side, there was no possibility of a large army passing through.

Liu Zhuzi felt a little hungry, and he was about to urge his soldiers to see if breakfast was already being prepared.

At this moment, an explosion made Liu Zhuzi almost jump.

"Enemy attack~~ Prepare to meet the enemy!"

There are a lot of hidden scouts outside the trenches. And these scouts will detonate the grenade as soon as they spot the enemy, and listen to the sound of the grenade exploding.

Liu Zhuzi is now a guerrilla general, a serious Ming Wupin general. He has 10,000 regular soldiers and auxiliaries, more than 100 mortars, and two huge cannons, sufficient weapons and ammunition, which can be described as a good strength.

The terrible sound of the brass whistle resounded throughout the position, and the soldiers who had not yet risen in the camp tent quickly rushed out, these soldiers did not mess around, every movement was done with ease, the bubble nail armor was quickly put on the body, and the soldiers rushed to their defensive areas with their own weapons according to different duties and arms.

Lying on the trench, Liu Zhuzi raised the clairvoyant mirror.

The mist showed no sign of dissipating, the vision was a little blurry, and the scouts were running backwards, their routes were interesting, not in a straight line, but constantly turning back and forth, as if avoiding obstacles.

Of course, it is an obstacle, and the first two miles of the trench are countless horseshoe pits, and the so-called horseshoe pits are also called traps in Zhou Yuji's army; This kind of pit is not large, only the mouth of the bowl is thick, and the depth is one foot. Don't underestimate these small horseshoe pits, although they are small, they are the nemesis of the cavalry, and in the case of the foot soldiers are not filled, these small pits are absolutely devastating to the galloping war horses. Zhou Yuji once let Li Zicheng's cavalry in Henan in the past teach this kind of horse trapping the power, and it was this kind of horse trapping that seriously hit the spirit of Li Zicheng's army, and Zhou Yuji also became famous in Henan in a battle.

The horseshoe pit was just an obstacle, and Zhou Huchen naturally would not give up his other important weapon, the landmine.

The mine operation in Shanxi has always haunted Zhou Huchen, and Liu Zongmin's brutality is still fresh in his memory. Now he can finally use mines with confidence and boldness, because Jiannu did not have many people to drive, and this weapon, which Zhou Huchen called the flower of hell, was mixed in the horseshoe pit, and after the horseshoe pit, there were also mines in front of the trench. This arrangement was slightly flawed, as the mines were not dense enough due to limited productivity and the fact that the defense zone was too extensive.

Unless someone is familiar with how mines are arranged, others who want to enter the area have to keep wading through the mines, all the way to the trench.

Liu Zhuzi is very clear about these arrangements, so he is not particularly worried about the enemy's sneak attack, what he needs to worry about is that the enemy will attack after the sneak attack, once the enemy army carries out a crazy attack on his defense area, Liu Zhuzi needs to send a signal to ask for support, after all, this defense line is a bit too long.

The heralds had already galloped to report the arrival of enemy troops, and Liu Zhuzi began to observe the situation outside the trench intently.

The fog was still a little heavy, and I couldn't see the situation in the distance, and I didn't hear the sound of the enemy's attack, let alone the sound of horses' hooves.

Could it be a sneak attack by a small group of enemy troops?

If it is a sneak attack by a small group of enemy troops, Liu Zhuzi can easily handle it, because the fog seems to be getting thinner and thinner, according to the law of this season, it will not take long for the fog to disappear, Liu Zhuzi does not have to worry too much.

There was a loud bang in the distance, and soon after, another loud bang was heard

At this time, the herald galloped back: "Report to the general, the enemy army has also been found on the east flank, and the marshal has sent scouts to order our troops to wait for them!" (To be continued......)
