Da Ming started to ascend the throne

Chapter 232 Long-distance Blocking

The leader is none other than Li Dingguo, King of the Ming Dynasty and God of War at the end of the Ming Dynasty.

And the general next to him is Liu Wenxiu.

Liu Wenxiu looked at the red flag waving in front of the battlefield, and turned around to ask Li Dingguo:
"Second brother, look at that flag, is it the red flag of the East Captive?"

Li Dingguo nodded and waved his hand to signal the army to stop advancing.

"Yes, it looks like the whole Hongqi army has been mobilized. Daishan and his two sons must be in Liaoyang."

Liu Wenxiu immediately took out the binoculars and carefully looked for Daishan and his two sons in the crowd.

Although he doesn't know Daishan, but as the owner of Zhenghongqi, their position should be very conspicuous.

Sure enough, as Liu Wenxiu expected, he soon found three generals standing side by side under the largest red flag, still gesticulating and talking.

"Second brother, I found Daishan. The three of them are commanding the Dongyao cavalry to fight by remote control. I will touch them and kill them immediately."

Li Dingguo shook his head:

"No, third brother, that's too dangerous. If they find out, you won't be able to run away."

"Second brother, don't worry, third brother is sure to run away..."

Seeing that Li Dingguo disagreed with his attack on Daishan, Liu Wenxiu began to beg bitterly.

Li Dingguo was originally an orphan, but was later adopted by Zhang Xianzhong as his adopted son.

Zhang Xianzhong had four adoptive sons, besides them, there was also Ai Nengqi, who had already been killed for Sun Kewang's rebellion.

Now Li Dingguo only has Liu Wenxiu as a relative, the two of them are like brothers, Li Dingguo also takes good care of him, how could Li Dingguo let his second brother take risks.

Later, unable to resist Liu Wenxiu's pleading, Li Dingguo could only nod his head in agreement:
"Okay, I really have nothing to do with you. We are here to ambush. If we are in danger, we will withdraw immediately. Don't be a hero."

"Okay, second brother, don't worry, we will never be discovered by the Tartars."

Seeing that Li Dingguo agreed, Liu Wenxiu was very happy, and immediately called eight soldiers with guns on their backs, jumped off their horses and quietly went to where Daishan and the others were.

These eight people are sharpshooters under Li Dingguo's command. They and Liu Wenxiu form a sharpshooter team, with Liu Wenxiu as the captain.

This team is equivalent to our current blocking team, and it is also the earliest special blocking team in the world.

Liu Wenxiu and the others were not fools, so of course they didn't dare to go up and kill Daishan directly, but first they found a suitable place to shoot and kill the opponent, and the distance should not be too far away.

There are low bushes and dense wormwood everywhere. It is not difficult to find shooting spots, and the eight people quickly found four spots.

However, it was still a little far away from Daishan. If the flintlock wanted to hit the target more accurately, it had to move forward some distance.

With their current and Daishan's positions, every time they move forward one meter, there is a possibility of being discovered, which is extremely dangerous.

Liu Wenxiu told the other four people not to move, and he led the other four people slowly crawling forward in the grass.

He stopped when he was about 130 steps away from Daishan, and never dared to crawl forward again.

The sounds of fighting and gunshots on the battlefield rang together, covering Liu Wenxiu's actions very well.

After confirming the location, Liu Wenxiu whispered to the other four people:
"Each of us has only one chance to shoot. We must aim and shoot again. Remember to shoot at the same time. Don't shoot without authorization, otherwise this sneak attack will fail.

Others are also very clear that once the failure is discovered, this distance is too dangerous. If the cavalry rushes over, they will run away.

"Don't worry, general, you can shout slogans then."

"Okay, that's it, start aiming, I will hit Daishan, and you will hit his two sons."

"Yes"

Generally, a strong bow throw can shoot to about 250 meters, and the killing distance of a flat shot is only about 70 meters, which is a big gap.

The flintlock gun also has this problem, with a throw of about 200 meters and a flat shot of about 120 meters.

In order to ensure the greatest damage, the Ming army often fired when the enemy was placed at a distance of eighty steps.

This is talking about ordinary soldiers, not a talented sharpshooter.

After calculating the distance, wind speed, etc., they can increase the effective killing distance by about 30 meters.

After Liu Wenxiu took aim, the countdown began:
"5 4 3 2 1"

"shot"

"Bang bang..."

The triggers of the four flintlock guns were pulled almost simultaneously, and the four bullets shot at Daishan and his two sons quickly.

Daishan and the others were engrossed in the battlefield ahead, how could they have imagined that someone would sneak attack them, but all four bullets hit them, and Man Dahai was hit by two bullets.

"Pfft..."

Daishan's left shoulder was pierced by a bullet, his body shook a few times and he almost fell off his horse in embarrassment. Man Dahai was shot in the ribs and abdomen and fell off his horse.

The other two were not as lucky as they were. These two were shot in the head.

"Where to shoot? Hurry up and protect the prince."

Daishan's personal guard yelled, flew off his horse to protect Daishan and Man Dahai, and looked around vigilantly for the target.

Daishan endured the sharp pain from his shoulder, and stepped forward to see his unconscious son.

"Quick, find out where to shoot for this king, catch them and throw their corpses."

"twitter"

Several Jialaerzhen under Daishan's command immediately started to get busy, but found nothing.

"My lord, it may be stray bullets that hurt you."

"Bastard, what stray bullets? Stray bullets have eyes, and they only hit our father and son!"

One of the two sons died and the other was injured, Daishan was furious, and immediately scolded Jiala Ezhen.

"My lord, you've lost a lot of blood, it's very dangerous, let's retreat first, and Lord Baylor needs to heal quickly."

Seeing that Daishan was covered in blood all over his body, a Jiala forehead hurriedly reminded him to withdraw his troops.

Dai Shan also knew very well that the Dongyao cavalry's momentum was low and they couldn't continue fighting.

"Pass on the king's order to withdraw the troops for the time being!"

"twitter"

The messenger immediately sent an order to withdraw the troops.

Liu Wenxiu pinched herself severely, she missed Dai Shan's crucial point just now, this was a serious mistake.

The other gunman beside him didn't hit Man Haihai's vitals just now.

The two looked at each other with wry smiles.

In fact, this is not easy, but they are not satisfied yet.

He reloaded and prepared to refill the gun, but Daishan and his son had already been surrounded, and they were not given a chance to fire a second shot.

The chief general was shot, and the cavalrymen and slaves of Dongyao were thrown into chaos in an instant, retreating one after another, not daring to continue charging.

After hearing the withdrawal of troops, they turned around and ran, faster than rabbits, they didn't want to fight anymore

Qi Jiguang waved the command flag:
"Xuanjia iron cavalry attack, it is best to catch the old fox Daishan."

"Yes"

"Da da da……"

With a promise, Li Cunxiao led the black armored cavalry who had already rested, and charged towards the east to captivate the Tartars like a tidal wave.

How could the Tartars stop the Xuanjia iron cavalry now? Under the leadership of their respective Jiala Ezhen, they protected the injured Prince Li Daishan Mandahai and retreated.

"Go back quickly, the captives of the East are fleeing."

Liu Wenxiu turned over and got up from the ground, and quickly returned to Li Dingguo's side.

"Second brother, the Tartars have retreated."

Li Dingguo smiled coldly:
"Good time, brothers are ready to fight, and we are determined not to let an enemy escape."

The Ming army under his command immediately began to load ammunition for the tiger squatting gun, checked the flintlock gun and loaded the bullets at the same time, and quickly entered the combat state.

"Da da da……"

Suddenly there was a violent sound of horseshoes, and the cavalry of Dongyao quickly fled back.

But suddenly it was discovered that their escape route was blocked, and the opponent had about 5000 horses.

In order to escape for their lives, they protected Daishan and rushed over without hesitation.

Although Daishan was shot in the shoulder, as a battle-tested veteran, he can still gallop on horseback.

Li Dingguo reached out to take off his strong bow, quickly drew out a mace arrow, and shot it at Daishan.

"Whoosh..."

"puff……"

At a distance of 130 steps, Daishan was shot in the heart by an arrow from Li Dingguo. Fortunately, the distance was too far, and he was wearing a battle armor so that the arrow did not go through the heart.

Even so, Daishan still felt a huge pain in his heart, and opened his mouth to spit out a mouthful of blood.

After fighting again, his body fell from the horse and fell to the ground with pain. The old fox Daishan rolled his eyes and passed out.

"My lord..."

The guards hurriedly got off their horses and stepped forward to carry Daishan on their backs.

Daishan, the dignified Prince of Dongluli, and Belle Mandahai all fell into a coma.
