Chapter 855: Head-on

"Shoot!" Yue Yun's raised right hand waved down violently, and the herald quickly transmitted his order to every corner of the battlefield, and the Song army in the front row immediately pulled the trigger, and the artillerymen also fired projectiles of different sizes at once.

"Boom! Bang! Bang! Countless loud noises sounded from the front of the battlefield at the same time, and the Jiannu army that rushed to the front was immediately hit on the head, and even the people and horses fell to the front of the formation, and they were instantly trampled into pulp by the friendly troops in the rear, and this first wave of firing took the lives of at least hundreds of Jiannu.

"The rear army is not allowed to stop, while the Ming army is still loading ammunition, immediately rush in!" Huang Taiji quickly made changes according to the actions of the battlefield Shandong, with his knowledge of the Ming army, he knew that there was a long time between each launch to fill the projectiles, and if he could grasp this opportunity, he would not be able to attack the enemy formation.

It's a pity that if these experiences are used in the Ming army, there may be no problem, but now they have already changed their opponents, the training of this Song army is not known how many times stricter than the Ming army, plus the guns they use in their hands have long been replaced by fixed paper shells, and the speed of firing is far better than the guns used by the Ming army, the gunfire of the previous round has almost just stopped, and the next round of shooting starts immediately, forming a barrage of death in front of the array, so that the attacking Jiannu hit his head full of blood, It was simply impossible to break through their defenses.

"How so! How so! The scene in front of him completely subverted Huang Taiji's consistent impression of the Ming army, even the Zhejiang army he encountered at the beginning was not so powerful, right? In the past, Qi Jiguang's nephew Qi Jin commanded the rest of the Qi army and Nurhachi's Houjin army in the Battle of the Hunhe River after Qi Jiguang's death, and killed tens of thousands of elite people of the Manchu Qing two white flags and two yellow flags with thousands of musketeers.

This battle left a deep impression on Huang Taiji, and the army in front of him can be said to be better than the Qi family army in the past to some extent, how can this not make Huang Taiji feel afraid? It's just that he can't figure it out now anyway, since Daming has such a powerful army, why didn't he take it out earlier? Do you have to wait until this time to come into battle?

He didn't know that the Qi family army led by Qi Jin in the past was greatly weakened compared to when Qi Jiguang was there, but now this army has completely inherited the essence of the Qi family army, and under the leadership of Yue Fei and other famous generals, the tactics, weapons, and training have been continuously improved, and the real combat effectiveness has even exceeded the heyday of the Qi family army.

"Mingjin retreats!" No matter how Jiannu's army attacked, it could only be smashed to the head on this steel-forged defense line, and thousands of people fell on the battlefield in such a short time, although most of these injured soldiers were the army of the Zhenglan Banner that had always been at odds with him, which still made Huang Taiji feel heartache, because now that Mang Gurtai was dead, it might not be long before he could bring the Zhenglan Banner under his direct jurisdiction.

"Great Khan, the enemy army is tightly arrayed, if it is attacked hard, I am afraid that it will only suffer heavy casualties, it is better to transfer all the cannons in Zunhua City to bombard for a while, and it is not too late to fight again when their formation is broken." Hauge hurried back and said that the battle idea of the Jurchens without fighting was a long-inherited combat idea of the Jurchens, because they knew that once the opposing army discharged a tight formation, it would inflict huge casualties on them, and the Jurchens were too few to afford such losses.

Emperor Taiji didn't expect to encounter much obstruction at all, so he didn't bring a bulky cannon when he went out of the city to face the battle, so as not to slow down the speed of the march, but now it seems that he has done something wrong, he remembered the experience of Nurhachi using the captured Ming army cannon to blast the formation of the Qi family army in the bloody battle of the Hunhe River, so he immediately agreed to Haoge's suggestion, and asked him to return to Zunhua City immediately with his own men and horses, and bring out all the cannons that can be fired.

Since the Ming Dynasty already has such a powerful army, then their Jurchens will face the test of the Yan army, if they do not completely defeat this army in this battle, then their life will only become more and more difficult in the future; And he can't withdraw the army now, because in order to lure Zhu Youzhen to drive the expedition in person, he has been stagnant after beating Zunhua, and he has not grabbed much since the breakthrough, if he goes back like this, this winter may be difficult to survive, and those who follow them plan to make a lot of money The Mongols also have nothing, if they go back like this, it will be even more difficult to pull them up next time they send troops, so they have to defeat the army in front of them anyway.

"There is such a strong army in the world, there is such a strong army...... Wang Qia in the army formation saw that the charge of tens of thousands of Jiannu was easily beaten back by the Song army, and his eyes were about to pop out, today really brought him too much stimulation, and he was already good if he didn't have a mental disorder.

"Now that the array has been arranged, don't you say that Jiannu only has an army of 100,000 people, even if there are 200,000 people, I am afraid that it will not be able to break it?" Zhang Zhiji also recovered from the nervousness, looked at the army in front of him and muttered to himself, the elite of the Beijing camp behind him also lowered their heads in shame, these people have always regarded themselves very highly, thinking that the entire Ming Dynasty except for the Xuanda army, the Guanning army and the white pole soldiers, no one can compete with them, but when they saw this Song army, they knew that there were people outside the world, and if it was a contest of equal strength, they would not be able to win this army no matter what.

"It seems that Jiannu is planning to slow down the offensive first?" Li You saw Huang Taiji's plan, but now that the initiative on the battlefield is no longer in your hands, you can stop if you want to fight, how can it be so easy!

Over there, without waiting for Li You to give the order, Yue Yun had already responded according to Jiannu's dynamics, and the Song army was in front of the formation, holding a fire gun, taking neat steps, and slowly pressing towards Jiannu with the momentum of Mount Tai.

How dare they take the initiative to attack us? The Jiannu soldiers on the opposite side were dumbfounded? How many years has it been since something like this has been encountered? In the past, they didn't fight and leave if they wanted to, but now in front of this army, they probably can't leave if they want to.
