The magnates of the Korean Kingdom were very aware of the artillery power of the Han army, and knew that placing the army on the city wall basically only had the ability to be passively bombed, and the troops that the Qing army had arranged at the head of the city of Beijing were the 75 mm field guns lined up by the Han army, and the continuous bombardment was demoralized!

Since the city wall has lost its role as a war bonus, the magnates of the Korean kingdom simply arranged their armies in the field, taking advantage of their own military superiority, and arranged a battle formation with large depth and wide surface. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

The attacking forces of the Han army showed a semi-encirclement situation!

The Korean troops on the frontal defense, in order to prevent the Han army's superior artillery bombardment, dug dense earthen fortifications, there are pits one meter deep, there are one-person high sand walls built up of earth, etc., human wisdom is vividly embodied in the war, although the Korean army does not understand the trenches in the later generations, but the excavated fortifications have a tendency to develop towards the trenches, it is really the Han army's artillery is too fierce, the North Koreans instinctively thought of the concept of hiding in the pit and firing artillery......

Of course, the North Korean army, which has little experience in the system, will not be able to dig real anti-artillery trenches, and will only dig some potholes and mounds that they think are safe......

Although these fortifications dug by the Koreans may not be able to withstand the artillery bombardment of the Han army, they can at least prevent the lethality of the shells after they land, and the mounds of earth that have been built up can still absorb some of the power after the shells explode......

More than 30,000 North Korean troops, including miscellaneous soldiers, were equipped with all kinds of weapons, Xue Ziwu stood on the high platform and looked at it, he really looked like he was fighting, compared to the Qing army that had not seen the tactics of the Han army and completely relied on the cold weapon war mode to stand in a dense bombing formation, it was much stronger!

The 75 mm field guns that were built up seemed to be useful for defending against direct fire, but unfortunately, the troops led by Xue Ziwu who landed on the Korean Peninsula were very low, and only 3 of these expensive artillery pieces were brought, and one of them was still unloading from the ship, so there was a little accident and did not come with the army......

Xue Ziwu didn't plan to use the 75mm field guns that focused on participation as the main firepower output, and the reason why he still pulled the two doors was mainly to bombard the walls of Seoul......

Unlike the chaotic and huge military formations of the North Korean army, the Han army led by Xue Ziwu was much simpler and had much fewer troops!

Although there were 10,000 troops at the time of landing, troops had to be stationed on important logistics lines along the way to suppress the local North Korean people!

A scattered army, the total strength that Xue Ziwu brought to the battlefield was only more than 6,000 people......

The reason why more than 3,000 troops were distributed was mainly because Xue Ziwu had to carry out the additional tasks assigned by the Imperial Staff and requisition Korean Zhuangding to fill the labor gap in the Americas!

Those ships transporting troops can't return empty, they are all waiting on the dock for Xue Ziwu to escort batches of North Korean coolies!

Of course, no one will care about some ill-gotten gains......

From Busan to Seoul, there is a large area, and with such a large territory, Xue Ziwu naturally has to allocate more manpower to carry out the tasks of forcibly pulling strong men and looting under orders!

It's not polite to the North Korean Zhao Dutian, he should kill ~ kill, rob ~ rob, snap and pop...... Well, men know it!

As for the ridiculous news that the Korean Kingdom mobilized the main force to annihilate itself, Xue Ziwu didn't take it to heart at all, with a group of troops with a mix of hot and cold weapons, no matter how many people fought a head-on battle with the Han army, it was the same as sending them to death!

The armies of the two sides soon approached each other, and although the Korean army had an absolute numerical advantage, it seemed that the Han army had no intention of taking the initiative to attack because of the Han army's accumulated victories in the Manchu Empire!

The 5,000 'elite', armed with flintlock pistols, was placed at the rear, where even 75mm field guns couldn't hit......

The North Koreans did not dare to take the initiative to attack, Xue Ziwu naturally would not stare dryly, if it was really said, his troops would belong to the attacking side!

The Han soldiers in a neat horizontal formation, under the command of the officer, stepped forward and gradually approached the queue of the North Korean army, and the two 75mm field guns in the rear adjusted the data, just waiting for the red-coated artillery hidden on the opposite side to open fire, and directly abolish the artillery position on the opposite side!

Sure enough, in the face of the Han army's pressing, the red-coated cannon with the longest range of the North Korean troops took the lead in spewing projectiles, and then smashed a big tree and several boulders on the periphery of the battlefield......

It's even more powerful than the artillery of the Qing army!

The North Korean army has not fought a war for hundreds of years, and as a technical artilleryman, it is needless to say that the drills on weekdays are not too much, as long as you can make a noise and don't blow yourself up, it will be good!

Naturally, in what direction the artillery of the North Korean army was aiming, even the North Korean artillery who fired the artillery did not know......

It's hell to be able to hit talents!

The hit rate of the red-coated cannon is already a trick, and letting a group of people who have never fought in a war use it is as ridiculous as playing a game......

However, for the artillery of the Han army, this is enough, and the fact that the North Koreans can make bunkers is already considered to be a super-level performance, and they have won the opportunity to fire first for their artillery, and they can be regarded as a well-deserved death......

Boom~Boom!

Two 75mm field guns fired at the rate of fire that knocked out the eyes of the North Korean soldiers, constantly tilting ammunition at the exposed red-coat artillery positions!

The power of the large-caliber shells filled with yellow gunpowder made the red-clothed artillery artillerymen who had never experienced war run around with pale faces in fright or simply lay on the ground and did not move!

Not to mention going to continue firing artillery, even the officers of the North Korean artillery were paralyzed on the ground in fright!

Hearing others say that war scenes and seeing them with your own eyes are definitely two different concepts, not to mention that these North Korean soldiers have never even been on a real battlefield!

Although the hit rate of the 75mm field gun is not much higher than that of the red-coated artillery, it is a very difficult technique for the artillery itself to hit head-on......

Under the leadership of several Han army officers who had received the task in advance, one grenadier group after another quickly jogged to a distance of less than 200 meters from the red-coated artillery position, anyway, the range of the North Koreans' weapons was absolutely impossible to exceed 100 meters, and the Han army was unscrupulous to bombard at close range!

This is the rampant tactical action brought about by the crushing of weapons and equipment!
