Chapter 0167: The Qing army is ambushed
Even if he was ambushed, Liu Zhiyuan was sure to rush out, and he could even take his subordinates to kill these ambushed bandits.
He wondered if the people of the Great Western Army had gotten the news in advance, and then launched a counterattack.
But Liu Zhiyuan immediately shook his head, it was impossible at all, it was too late in time.
You must know that after two levels in a row, the army has been riding horses and hurrying quickly, in order to avoid news leakage and make Guangyuan's bandits prepared.
Before the news was delivered to Zitong County, the army would capture Guangyuan, so that Feng Shuangli, the garrison here, had no time to react.
This may be the casual chopping of passers-by who are idle and bored.
Just when Liu Zhiyuan, the owner of the Yellow Flag, hesitated, the barricades on the bridge deck of the Majiawan Stone Bridge were almost cleared.
The Qing army began to move slowly again.
Ao Bai grabbed the reins, looked at the stagnant team, became angry, and shouted, "Why stop?" ”
Originally, it was all a sprint team, but once there was a blockage, the message could not be effectively disseminated, and congestion would inevitably occur.
However, the soldiers who passed the word in front have not yet reached the second half.
On the Iron Cap Mountain, Qin Zuoming looked at the same Qing army war horse in this traffic, but he still couldn't see the end at a glance, and he couldn't see the back at a glance.
The road that stretches for ten miles can make them stay here intensively in a short period of time, and turning on a red light can be regarded as an effective means.
"The explosion hasn't been heard yet?" Yang Zhan raised his head slightly, looked at the Qing army below, and could even hear the scolding of the Qing soldiers.
"Don't worry, let their horses run a little longer." Qin Zuoming looked ahead again through the monoculars.
Ao Bai is still cursing loudly, what the hell is going on?
Why stagnation.
Behind him, he grabbed the reins for a while, so as not to collide with the war horse,
It was at this time.
A few bang-bang sounds came from far and near.
Qin Zuoming put down the monocular and said to Yang Zhan: "Isn't this signal coming?" ”
Immediately after that, whistles sounded one after another on the mountain.
Then there were thunderbolts flying down from the sky.
The smoking earth-shattering thunder fell on the ground and smashed the soldiers and horses of the Qing army.
Ao Bai looked at the mountain and shouted: "Enemy attack! ”
He was answered by the sound of explosions one after another.
Yang Zhan looked at the Qing army at the bottom of the mountain road like rag dolls, falling to the ground, screaming in panic.
"Brother Qin, you can really do it." After Yang Zhan finished speaking, he rounded the earth-shaking thunder and threw it down.
"Damn, you haven't lit this yet." Qin Zuoming watched as the unlit earth-shaking thunder was thrown on the head of the Qing soldier,
Smack.
also blamed Yang Zhan for his great strength and accurate head, so he directly stunned a Qing army and fell into the Jialing River.
"Ah, why don't you throw a stone." Qin Zuoming glanced sideways at Yang Zhan, a little helpless.
At a distance of about two miles from the Majiawan Stone Bridge, Shao Mingjun watched as the Qing army with a yellow flag stepped on a horse in the minefield area.
Then there was an explosion.
The Qing cavalry was blown up on their backs.
"Fire!"
With a wave of his hand, Shao Mingjun ordered three artillery squadrons to immediately bombard the Qing army in front of him.
This is where the round of shooting begins.
That is, the first row fires and then loads, and the second and third rows shoot in turn to maintain the continuous output of firepower.
Liu Zhiyuan, the owner of the Yellow Flag, was directly blinded by the artillery fire.
There was an explosion in front of him, and he felt that he had been ambushed.
Then there was the whistle on Iron Cap Mountain.
He didn't have much time to react, and then he saw something slash across the sky and a fire ring out behind him.
There were a lot of black osteoma things thrown down on the mountain.
Explosions, screams.
The war horse was frightened and uncontrollable, and it was attacked on all sides.
Then a number of weedy men came from the hill, and they began to shoot downwards with fire guns and white smoke.
There was a bang.
Liu Zhiyuan was blown up and fell off the war horse, he felt that he had been hit in the chest, even with the bronze mirror to protect his heart, it was useless.
Explosions came and went.
In this attack, the Qing army showed their ruthlessness, and many Qing soldiers drew their bows and arrows and began to aim at the mountain.
But this kind of person who dared to resist was naturally given priority shooting treatment by the bandits.
"Shoot the arrows." Liu Zhiyuan felt the pain in his chest and roared.
I never thought that I would really be attacked by a gang of bandits.
It must be the news revealed by He Zhen.
Otherwise, how could these bandits have been ambushed in advance on the path they must pass on the march?
"It was He Zhen who betrayed us." Liu Zhiyuan lay on the bank of the river and yelled loudly, even if he pounded the ground, it would be useless.
"Rush forward, rush out to live." Liu Zhiyuan hurriedly grabbed his own guards and roared loudly.
The guards did not hesitate, and ordered the soldiers to rush forward with all their strength and leave the cover of the mountain.
Shao Mingjun watched the Qing soldiers begin to charge bravely at his artillery team, and the corners of his mouth smiled, let you see what is called the power of artillery.
"First row, adjust the angle, change the grape bomb." Shao Mingjun waved a small red flag.
Immediately after that, the first row began to adjust the angle and aim at the Qing troops who were attacking.
At this time, the third platoon of non-commissioned officers with muskets had already run in front of the first row of guns and began to shoot to obstruct.
Many Qing sergeants were shot and fell to the ground, but they still existed
"Report, the first platoon of guns is fully loaded."
After Shao Mingjun received the news, he ordered the soldiers to disperse to the two wings immediately.
"Fire!" Shao Mingjun waved the little red flag viciously.
Bang bang bang.
Grapeshells were fired out by artillery in turn.
The Qing army, which was suddenly shocked, even men and horses, all fell on the way to charge.
Even though the Qing army was lying on the bank of the river, it was very clear to the bandits halfway up the mountain.
That's it, not all the bandits are shooting at the Qing army.
There are always two soldiers with three-eyed guns in each small banner, guarding against the Qing army rushing up.
Ao Bai was pulled off his horse by the guards around him, and he also lay on the bank of the river.
"Master, let's dive to the other side of the river."
Hearing the words of the guard, Ao Bai went up and gave him a slap, gritted his teeth and said: "I am the first Baturu of the Qing Dynasty, and I was sealed by the first emperor."
Every time you fight for the first place, how can you run away when you are attacked by a Han dog? ”
Ao Bai is not stupid, otherwise he would not have been named an auxiliary minister by Shunzhi.
Needless to say, He Zhen must have betrayed himself and revealed the marching route to this gang of bandits, and it is very likely that even the Great Western Army was deliberately lax in defense.
Taking advantage of the chaos at the scene and carefully observing the situation on the battlefield, Ao Bai has become a rout.
Many soldiers took off their cotton armor and began to jump into the Jialing River to flee for their lives.
The Manchu Qing Dynasty was a fishing and hunting people, and they were naturally no strangers to water, but many soldiers of the Han army did not know water.
"Master, those Han people don't dare to resist at all." The guard suggested again, "Let's run away." ”
Ao Bai brushed out his belt and directly hacked the suggested guard: "Whoever dares to flee will be killed!" ”
