Now that there is no room for hesitation, since the Three Guards can take the initiative to come to the door, it is their confident expression, and they see that the Eight Banners of the Qing Dynasty and the Mongolian and Han Dynasty are not their opponents. In this regard, Lu Zhifan was greatly dissatisfied, and what the Three Guards relied on was only a great shock caused by the suddenness of tactics. He decided to use the Han Army Banner and the Mongolian Eight Banners to far surpass the fighting resilience of the Ming army, and carry out a protracted battle until the Ming army's sharp energy was exhausted and the final victory was achieved.

In Lu Zhifan's impression, the vast majority of the Ming army's will to fight is very weak, and even the elite of the elite is difficult to maintain a high-intensity battle for a long time, so this time he is considered to have fought hard and used his own strength to consume the strength of the Three Guards.

Under the strict order, the soldiers of the Han Army Banner really broke out with extraordinary combat effectiveness, and their strong will to fight drove them to withstand the rounds of artillery and musket attacks of the Three Guards, and in the end they could not take half a step back. The shape that was already precarious, and even collapsed at the touch of a button, was actually stabilized like this.

Lu Zhifan is still a little proud in his heart, the biggest advantage of commanding the Qing army to fight is that the fighting will of the soldiers of each department is extremely strong, and they can withstand the test of various fierce battles, which is like the difference between a knight with a peerless martial arts and an ordinary weapon, and the difference is by no means just as simple as one plus one equals two.

Lu Zhifan's pride did not last long, after Cheng Mingjiu found that the opponent actually broke out with extremely strong combat effectiveness, he no longer forcibly urged the army to advance, but waved the command flag to make Heisenberg's artillery battalion as far forward as possible, Heisenberg was not afraid at all, urging the artillery to push more than forty eight-pounder guns forward step by step, and even close to the opponent's bow and arrow could be shot directly.

"Level the gun emplacement, adjust the direction, reload the ammunition, prepare the ...... for firing"

As soon as a series of orders came out of Heisenberg's mouth, the artillerymen had already completed the various combat actions smoothly, and Heisenberg put the pocket watch back into his arms, which was a treasure that took a lot of effort to obtain in Taiyuan, and he was very satisfied with the appearance of the artillerymen under his command, and he was not stingy with praise at all.

"The artillery boys are all good, go back to the big fish and big meat tubes, and the guys in the camp are hungry for ......"

The artillerymen burst into laughter and demanded that Heisenberg speak and count, but his men's movements did not stop for a minute.

"The naval officer has to talk and count, don't be like last time......"

Heisenberg coughed embarrassedly twice, the last time he did promise to have enough big fish and big meat, but limited to environmental restrictions, even a meal of enjoyable meat could not be realized, he came to the Ming Dynasty and found that the Oriental people have an unusual desire to eat, just like the Christ, God, and Lord of the Westerners. Therefore, he used food more than once to motivate the artillerymen under his command, and although the effect was not as good as expected, it also had an immediate effect.

"What is Zhang Xiaojiu doing? Don't be lazy, keep an eye on your gun position......" While reprimanding a sloping artilleryman next to him, the flag ordering all the artillerymen to open fire was waved together, and at the same time, Heisenberg's horn was also sounded.

Suddenly, the whole battlefield erupted one after another with the deafening sound of cannon firing, and even the whole earth was trembling endlessly, because it was too close to the Qing army, dozens of solid bullets were shot out, and they smashed directly into the dense Han army banner formation, and the boulder into the sea was like a terrifying wave, but this wave was in addition to the stump and broken arm, which was scarlet blood.

Dozens of projectiles bounced forward after landing for the first time, like a ruthless rake ploughing out flesh and blood ditches in the Qing army's military formation. However, this was only the beginning of the nightmare, and the artillerymen began to skillfully clean the chamber, moistening the wool brush with water, and then poking it into the chamber several times, brushing out the gunpowder residue and soaking all the remaining sparks, and then putting in the fixed propellant, compacting it, and then pushing a lead bullet into the barrel.

Unfortunately, Zhang Xiaojiu, who was next to Heisenberg, got a lead bullet with a diameter slightly larger than the inner wall of the barrel, which was stuck in the barrel and could not be stabbed in any case, making him sweat profusely. The salvo is about to begin, isn't this to delay everyone's salvo?

After Heisenberg noticed this situation, he pushed Zhang Xiaojiu away, snatched the iron rod from his hand, and then yelled at Zhang Xiaojiu: "How do you usually teach you, have you forgotten it in your stomach when you go to the battlefield?" Get a hammer! ”

Heisenberg's reprimand made Zhang Xiaojiu wake up like a dream, and quickly turned out a huge hammer from the back of the gun carriage. Heisenberg grabbed the iron rod of the bullet with both hands, and said word by word: "Smash, smash the cannonball in!" Zhang Xiaojiu was a little hesitant, he was afraid that one would accidentally smash the Haiying officer, but Heisenberg changed his tone and urged: "Smash it quickly, I believe you can do it, and you must also believe that you can!" ”

Zhang Xiaojiu seemed to get courage from Heisenberg's urging, picked up the huge hammer with both arms, and smashed it down with a clang, and sure enough, it was accurate and ruthless every time.

Boom Boom!

The second salvo was fired, and the Qing army's position was already showing signs of instability. They had never come across such an example of bombardment of infantry exclusively with artillery. In the past, the biggest use of red-coated cannons was only to siege cities, and as for field battles, due to their huge size and frantic weight, it was impossible to advance quickly with the field troops.

However, the artillery of the Three Guards did exactly the opposite, and dozens of cannons were enough to be mad, and they were even used for field battles. The Qing army, whether it was the Han Army Banner or the Mongolian Eight Banners, had never suffered such a large-scale artillery bombardment, and they couldn't help but panic for a while.

This was only the beginning of their nightmare, until the third round of salvo came with a dense burst of bullets, Lu Zhifan even found a little desperate to find that the Chinese army of the Han Army Banner had shown signs of exhaustion, and if it were not for the support of their proud combat resilience, I am afraid that it would have collapsed long ago. At this time, the artillery of the Three Guards had no intention of cease-fire, and they were very happy to fire one cannon after another.

Lu Zhifan suddenly found that this kind of dense formation made the artillery of the Three Guards bombard in turn seem to be extremely stupid. However, it seems a little late to realize this by now. Lu Zhifan's eyelids jumped wildly, and the infantry of the Three Guards Army, who had been hiding behind the artillery, began to walk in unison again, and marched forward with the rhythmic sound of the whistle.

There is no scene more desperate than now, the morale of the Qing army that Lu Zhifan is proud of has gradually collapsed under the cover of the Ming army's artillery, and at this time, the infantry of the Ming army is like a rainbow, shouting the horn that shook the sky in unison, and every time they stepped on the ground, it sounded, as if they stepped on the heart of Lu Zhifan.

Lu Zhifan no longer hesitated, he knew that it had reached the critical moment of your life and death, and now it was like gambling that you must bet all the treasures, win a lot of money if you win, and lose a complete loss, clean and clean!

"Herald! The flank of the Mongolian Eight Banners is pressed, and this battle is only allowed to advance, not retreat! Those who take half a step back will not be spared! ”

The cavalry of the Mongolian Eight Banners didn't wait for Lu Zhifan's verbosity to finish at all, so they rushed straight to the flank of the Three Guards like arrows from the string. This time they poured out in the thousands, and the earth trembled under the roar of the horses' hooves, no less than the previous cannon volley.

The target of the Mongolian cavalry was Heisenberg's First Artillery Battalion, and the battle had been fought so far, and they had discovered that Heisenberg's artillery battalion was a pioneer battalion, specially designed to combat the morale of the infantry.

The cavalry bypassed the two flanks of the Qing army formation, made a big circle and went straight to the artillery. Heisenberg's artillerymen finally began to panic. Heisenberg showed great combat qualities at this time, and in the face of thousands of iron cavalry, he methodically ordered the artillery to turn around, retreat into the depths of the gunpowder smoke that filled the entire battlefield when the cannon was fired, and aimed the muzzle of the cannon at the cavalry that was coming straight towards them.

"Load shotshots, listen to orders, and fire a salvo when the Tartar cavalry is twenty paces away"

From the exit of the command, before the echo landed, the Mongol cavalry had already galloped to a distance of twenty paces from the artillery position.

"Fire! Fire! ”

Thousands of scattered bullets shot out like hail in this sound and artillery fire, the Mongolian cavalry running in the front was like hitting a hard invisible wall, and in an instant people turned over on their backs, because of inertia, the horses that followed up did not have time to brake at all, and trampled on the fallen people and horses, and suddenly it was a piece of flesh and blood, because of the different depths of the horse's legs, many horses lost their center of gravity, fell to the ground, broke the horse's legs, and the rider on the horse was thrown out fiercely......

A single round of artillery bombardment smashed the cavalry forward of thousands of people to pieces, and the follow-up horses lost their minds and became frightened horses because of the loud sound of artillery fire, and let the riders try to restrain them and still fled aimlessly.

Seeing such a tragic situation, the Mongol cavalry following behind the vanguard immediately changed the mind of the shock artillery, and after drawing an arc, they went straight to the flank of the infantry battalion in a circle. Watching the battle in the rear, Lu Zhi stomped his feet again and again, scolding the Mongolian Eight Banners cavalry commander for his incompetence, and it took a lot of time to reload after the cannon salvo, so he could take the opportunity to rush up and crush them in one fell swoop, and the fool actually retreated.

However, the cavalry was even more unlucky when they chose the Three Guards, and Heisenberg did not intend to let them go, and after estimating their advance in the thick fog, he ordered the artillery to adjust the muzzles and load the solid ammunition......
