Chapter 165: Huang Taiji's Temptation

Huang Taiji over there heard this sentence and simply said a critical hit.

If Zhu Youxiao, who explained the army, specially asked people to write an essay to satirize him, then he would not feel any stimulation.

But it was this kind of insult that was the simplest, most simple and most return-to-heart, which made him feel a little upsurge of qi and blood.

He looked at the figure on the high platform in the distance with some ferocity, although he couldn't see it clearly, but the hatred in his heart had been puffed up.

He knew that it was the leader of the Ming army, the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Youxiao, and his destined prisoner in this war.

"What are you waiting for here? Didn't you see the Ming Dynasty emperor on the other side, saying that he wanted to take out my brain and feed it to the dogs? Why don't you get him over to me, and ask him how the hell is going to get Ben Khan's brain out and feed it to the dogs. ”

The Han Eight Banner General beside him felt a pang in his heart, and he obviously felt that Huang Taiji was a little angry.

This state was something he hadn't felt before, and after he took refuge in Huang Taiji, he always felt that this Huang Taiji had a bit of a master's appearance, and he was not easy to get angry when he encountered something.

The army of the Eight Banners of the Han Dynasty suddenly rushed towards Zhu Youxiao's side.

Their cooperation with each other looks very familiar, and it is obvious that this kind of attack formation is still used by the Ming army back then.

It can be seen that this Huang Taiji did not put too much thought into these soldiers of the Han Eight Banners.

Just when the Han Eight Banners army attacked, Batu, under the command of Lin Dan Khan, also led 15,000 troops to kill the Chinese army on Huang Taiji's side.

But at this time, it was blocked by the 10,000 Mongolian Eight Banners cavalry led by Dolgon, and both sides were Mongolian cavalry, so the two sides fought in this way, and they were not able to win or lose for a while.

At this time, Lu Xiangsheng, Qin Liangyu and Sun Yuanhua, who were in charge of blocking the front, all gathered in front of Zhu Youxiao.

Sun Yuanhua obviously had some worry on his face, looked at Zhu Youxiao and asked, "Your Majesty, they have only sent 20,000 soldiers from the Han Eight Banners now, obviously they want to test a little more, are we going to shell them now?" ”

Zhu Youxiao looked at the opposite side, and also knew that the strongest real combat power under this Huang Taiji was the Jurchen cavalry, which was the foundation of his Huang Taiji.

If Zhu Youxiao only killed and injured 20,000 Han and Eight Banners, but let Huang Taiji and them see the power of the new artillery of the Ming army, I am afraid they would retreat.

Then this war will not meet the strategic requirements at all.

What Zhu Youxiao really wanted was to wait for the core cavalry and infantry of these Jiannu to rush up before giving them a heavy blow.

He at least greatly killed and injured thousands of Jiannu's Jurchens, so as to ensure that Jiannu would be honest in the next few years.

The so-called Jurchens are not more than 10,000, and they are invincible, this is the slogan they shouted out by Jiannu, but this is also their shortcoming.

The Jurchen headquarters had a small army, and they were brave, but once they killed a few thousand of their soldiers, they could be crushed.

"Isn't it just some army of the Han Eight Banners? They are no different from ordinary Ming soldiers, so don't expose our bottom first. ”

"This thing is very simple, let your soldiers reduce the charge of maroon gunpowder, stuff some solid shells in the artillery, more than ninety cannons, and enough for these soldiers of the Han Eight Banners to drink a pot."

All the generals of the Ming army understood that Zhu Youxiao was going to lure the big fish to the bait.

After Sun Yuanhua got the order, he hurriedly returned to the artillery position.

As soon as all the Ming gunners received the order, they began to reduce the charge and began to reload solid shells.

The number of these solid shells of the Ming army may not be much.

If it weren't for the fear that the follow-up war would be dragged into the quagmire, and the number of nitrate shells would not be enough, they would really be reluctant to equip these solid shells.

For their artillery, the power of solid shells is simply not comparable to the new type of nitrate explosive shells.

The soldiers of the Eight Banners of the Han Dynasty were getting closer and closer to them, and as Sun Yuanhua gave an order, more than ninety cannons began to fire.

These solid shells fell into the soldiers of the Han Eight Banners, and they directly hit a few more drifts on the grass, and immediately opened up more than 90 bloody paths.

This dense 20,000 soldiers of the Han Eight Banners suffered heavy losses in an instant.

More than 90 cannons, fired solid shells, killed at least 1,000 soldiers with eight banners at once.

These soldiers of the Han Eight Banners instantly felt a little weak, they actually didn't know that the Ming Dynasty army on the opposite side had brought so many artillery.

If something like artillery sticks to a person's body, it is not a matter of breaking a hand or a leg, and there is a chance that it will not survive.

The war drums of Jiannu in the rear had already sounded, and this time urging their soldiers of the Han Eight Banners to continue the attack.

As if they heard the sound of war drums in all directions, the officers of the Eight Banners began to urge them to quicken their pace.

Only if they kill the opposite position, that is a way to live.

If they rush down slowly, when the second firing of the Ming artillery is due, then they will be in big trouble.

Subsequently, Sun Yuanhua asked their artillery to stop firing a little, and the secret of their rear-loading guns could not be revealed, the reloading speed of the front-loading gun and the reloading speed of the rear-loading gun, it was different.

When these soldiers of the Eight Banners of the Han Dynasty rushed into the two miles, the artillery of the Ming Dynasty army began to roar again.

The smell of sulfur could be smelled for miles around, and it was all smoke drifting through one after another.

Even the grass in the vicinity was covered with a cloud of dust, and even the sky looked a little gray.

This time, it was nearly a thousand soldiers of the Eight Banners who lost their ability to fight.

The sound of war drums in their rear became louder and louder, and these soldiers of the Han Eight Banners saw that they were getting closer and closer to the positions of the Ming soldiers on the opposite side, and they also ran and attacked.

At this time, the Ming soldiers fired solid shells for the third time, and they had already begun to fire.

At the same time, the soldiers of the Han Eight Banners got closer and closer to their army, the trajectory of the artillery fire became more and more straight, and the casualties of the soldiers of the Han Eight Banners became more and more heavy.

This time, nearly two thousand soldiers of the Han Eight Banners fell.

As they entered the last half mile, these Ming artillery shells were fired, and they showed the strongest attack.

The artillery was filled with a large number of grape solid shells, which means that there were more than one shell, and there were more than ten or twenty small solid iron shells.

As soon as these small solid shells were fired, the dense shells rushed across the field, and all of a sudden, two or three thousand soldiers of the Han and Eight Banners died on that piece of grass.

Most of the soldiers of the Han Eight Banners were the Ming army who took refuge in the past, and their will to fight was actually too far from the Jurchens, so the brutal artillery attack directly damaged their morale.

They couldn't hold back any longer and began to flee behind.

At the same time, they fled behind, and the Ming artillery continued to fire.

In the process of fleeing for their lives, the artillery of the Ming army killed at least two or three thousand of them.

When Huang Taiji saw this scene, the roots of his teeth were bleeding, and it was clear that he was close to the last point, and this group of Wang Ba calves actually fled.
