Chapter 168: Man Turns on His Back
Daishan had never heard the whistling of such shells.
Just by listening to this voice, he could already hear it, it could not be an ordinary iron cannonball at all.
But he didn't know what kind of thing was flying towards them this time.
But in Dai Shan's thoughts, no matter what kind of cannonballs flew in, it couldn't change that he must defeat the Ming Dynasty army on the opposite side today. The determination to catch the emperor of the Ming Dynasty.
More than 90 shells of nitrification explosives flew into the sky, smashing directly into the soldiers of the Jurchen Eight Banners.
The thunder mercury in the front of the cannonball instantly detonated the entire cannonball, and with a "boom", dozens of cavalry of the Jurchen Eight Banners around flew out in an instant.
This cannon was completely and blew up the soldiers of the Jurchen Eight Banners.
They didn't expect that there would be such a terrifying artillery in the sky.
The entire battlefield was full of stumps and broken arms, dozens of artillery shells, and dozens of soldiers of the Jurchen Eight Banners were killed on the spot.
There were many more cavalry of the Jurchen Eight Banners who were shaken off their horses by the shock wave.
More than 90 shells were fired, killing nearly 3,000 soldiers of the Jurchen Eight Banners at one time.
What a terrifying lethality, this thunderclap blew up the soldiers of the Jurchen Eight Banners on the entire battlefield.
Whether it was Lin Dan Khan over there, or Dolgon over there, or Huang Taiji, who was four or five miles away, they all looked at this scene in shock.
What did they just see?
Why does Zhu Youxiao have such a devastating artillery?
The entire battlefield was filled with gunsmoke, and the wind was blowing from south to north.
The smoke blew to Huang Taiji's side of their Chinese army, and soon their eyes were hooked.
Dai Shan rushed ahead, but the artillery just smashed in the middle of the soldiers of the Jurchen Eight Banners, he was lucky not to be injured by the artillery, but he was also completely stunned by this scene.
How is this possible?
Zhu Youxiao, who was here, was also surprised by the damage caused by the explosion.
But soon he understood that if it weren't for the charge of Jiannu's cavalry group, this might not have been so powerful.
It was because the soldiers of their Jurchen Eight Banners were too dense that the attack power of the fragments of those shells and the damage caused by them simply increased exponentially.
Dai Shan finally reacted at this time, he looked at the soldiers next to him, and shouted loudly, "Don't be afraid, the artillery of the Ming army will shoot one shot, and it will take a long time before it can hit the second one again." ”
"Divide these formations a little bit more, and we will win when we hit the opposing camp."
will be brave for the soldiers, if Dai Shan collapses on the spot, then these soldiers will also collapse, but Dai Shan can still show such courage at this time, which can be said to be very commendable.
Next to him, there was a young Jurchen Eight Banner general named Ao Bai, who also raised his horse's head and shouted, "What are you afraid of? If the neck and head fall out, it's just a scar the size of a bowl. ”
Dai Shan then took his army, which was to kill the camp of the Ming soldiers.
Zhu Youxiao saw this scene from a distance, and he was also shocked, he didn't expect the soldiers of Jiannu to be so fierce.
If it weren't for being there, he wouldn't have thought that Dai Shan would have the courage to continue attacking.
It can be seen that this soldier of Jiannu, who came out of the white mountain and black water, did have a little ability.
But this is meaningless, the reason why these Jiannu cavalry still dare to attack is just thinking that their artillery will be reloaded, and it will take time.
But although Dai Shan was wrong.
It only took one-third or even a quarter of the time it took for the Ming artillery to reload the shells.
The second shell went out, and the shells of more than ninety cannons once again fell into the camp of the soldiers of the Jurchen Eight Banners.
This time more than 2,000 people were directly killed.
Dai Shan was completely stunned, and he was also taken down from the war horse by the huge cannonball shock wave.
And the young man named Ao Bai just now was hit by a cannonball at this time, and he had already been torn apart.
If you want to pick up his body, I'm afraid it's difficult.
Seeing this situation, the Daishan guards next to him were also completely panicked, and hurriedly helped this Daishan up.
"Lord Belle, are you alright?"
How could this Daishan be fine, he was directly cut in the face by the gravel hit by the cannonball, and now he is bleeding heavily.
But compared to the wound on his face, his heart was even more shocked, and he even thought in horror about the time when the first cannon would be fired.
Now they are only a hundred steps forward, so what does it mean?
The firing speed of this artillery was already a quarter of the time of the previous artillery of their Ming soldiers.
In the past, the soldiers of their Jurchen Eight Banners only took a short time from entering the range of these artillery, and then before they killed each other.
At that time, the artillery of the Ming army could only fire three shots.
But the current loading time of the Ming artillery means that if they want to attack the front of the Ming army, they need to usher in the Ming artillery and fire it nine to ten times, which is simply unacceptable to them.
Less than half of the 8,000 Jurchen Eight Banners soldiers he brought out have been left so far, and the reason why everyone has not fled for their lives until now is because they were completely stunned.
Soon, no matter how savage the soldiers of the Jurchen Eight Banners were, they couldn't stand this cruel scene, and ran back desperately.
"Run, run!"
"The Ming army used witchcraft and the thunder is coming, and if we don't run, we will all die."
As soon as Dai Shan saw this situation, he also came back to his senses completely, he pulled out the matching knife in his hand, and killed the soldiers of the Jurchen Eight Banners who were about to escape on the spot with a few knives.
But it didn't work.
The mental defense of the soldiers of the Jurchen Eight Banners has been completely shattered.
Just as Daishan continued to intercept their deserters, but found that it had no effect, he suddenly thought of an even more terrifying possibility.
The artillery of the Ming army is so powerful, but their range is still the same as that of the old artillery, so is it possible that they are hiding the range of their artillery?
He saw Huang Taiji's Chinese army and found that the Chinese army was only four miles away from the artillery position of the Ming army.
In the past, the artillery of the Ming army could only hit three miles, and with that kind of artillery, the position of Huang Taiji was safe.
But now Dai Shan doesn't dare to think like this at all.
If this is the Ming Dynasty people deliberately playing tricks on them, then this consequence is definitely not something they can bear.
Dai Shan was completely frightened, he looked at the soldiers of the Jurchen Eight Banners around him bitterly, he knew that it was their soldiers of the Jurchen Eight Banners, who had been hit hard in this war, and they had conquered those tribes before, and they would immediately turn back.
He knew Huang Taiji's ability and insisted that only Huang Taiji could save them.
