Chapter 563
When the battle officially started, it was not the Zhungeer army that fired first. After all, the camel cannon they relied on, although its performance was much better than that of the mother and child cannon, was still inferior to the current artillery of the Fuhan army. And they didn't know the specific range of the Fuhan Army's artillery, so they walked into the range ignorantly.

Under the command of the artillery officer of the Fuhan Army, 85 six-pound guns let out their own roars, and 85 flowering bullets flew into the sky, and then fell headlong into the Zhungeer artillery march in the blink of an eye.

"Boom--"

I only heard a series of explosions, and more than 30 camel cannons were destroyed in this way, and hundreds of people were killed by the way. Suddenly, there was a strong smell of gunpowder smoke in the air, and the artillery positions of the Fuhan Army also rose. A white cloud of smoke rose up, which looked extremely conspicuous.

In this era, it is impossible to conceal artillery positions. Gunpowder smoke is the best pointing mark. In addition, it is difficult for artillery to move quickly, so that the battle between the two sides has become a kind of mutual bombardment. Cruel situation.

Dong Ce was very helpless. He knew that he only had the first-hand advantage. After the Zhungeer Army completed the artillery position, his more than 80 artillery pieces would definitely suffer heavy losses, but he had no other way. The time difference will only cause greater losses in the future.

"Hurry up and fire, fight a few more rounds before they build artillery positions! The one who fights more and faster will be awarded the Baoding Medal after the battle!"

Soon, the order was given to the artillery positions, and almost all the artillery began to boil, because they knew how rare a Baoding Medal was, as usual, everyone could only get some basic loyalty medals, but like Baoding The first-level medal will only be awarded to officers and soldiers who have made great achievements, and they have this opportunity to get it now, and after receiving the medal, the benefits will naturally be inexhaustible.

"Boom--"

"Second round, light the fire!"

"The third round, light the fire!"

The artillery soldiers of the Fuhan Army began to speed up the pace continuously. Since the position map had been clearly marked before the battle, the subsequent work became very simple. When the artillery officer found the artillery position of the Jungar Army, he would immediately The time is calculated, and then the fire is fired. The whole process can be regarded as smooth and smooth.

At the same time, the Zhungeer army, which was a little bit unbearable by the bombing, also began to speed up. Fortunately, their camel guns were all light artillery, so when the third round of artillery fire from the Fuhan army fell, the entire Zhungeer army The artillery also arrived at the predetermined position, and at this time the positions of the Zhungeer army and the Fuhan army were only about one mile left.

Of course, when the camel guns of the Zhungeer Army started to build their positions, their losses were also huge. In addition to being destroyed by surprise for the first time, more than 30 camel guns were destroyed, and more than ten guns were destroyed in the subsequent two rounds. In all, almost sixty camel guns were destroyed.

Looking from a distance, the Zhungeer army is no longer in formation at this time, and a large number of corpses have fallen in the artillery formation. There are still many wreckages of camel cannons left in place, and even the cannons have been destroyed. It was blown out, giving people a shocking feeling.

Da Ce Ling Dun Duobu looked at everything that happened in front of him with a pale face. He was the officer in charge of "Bao Qin". Therefore, after the artillery force suffered a major blow at this time, he could not evade this responsibility anyway.

"Great Khan, the minister was unfavorable, which caused heavy damage to the camel cannon. Please also behead the minister to comfort people's hearts."

In front of the battlefield, Da Ce Ling Dun Duobu knelt in front of Galdan Ce Ling, his whole face showed deep remorse, and even had a strong sense of guilt. He was really willing to die to cleanse himself. own sins.

At this time, Galdan Ce Ling's face no longer had the previous relaxed look, and it became as heavy as water. He really didn't expect that in such a short moment, his artillery lost so much, and he wanted to To recast these cannons, he needs to spend a lot of manpower and material resources, and the key is time.

But right now, Galdan Ce Ling cannot punish Da Ce Ling Dun Duobu. After all, Bao Qin was assigned to command Da Ce Ling Dun Duobu. Falling into chaos was an unacceptable consequence for him.

"Dun Dob, Ben Khan will not kill you, but Ben Khan wants you to understand, not because your crime is not big enough, but because you can't die so cheaply, you need to lead Bao Qin and suppress their power Firearms, understand?"

Galdan Ce Ling stared at Da Ce Ling Dun Duobu with a gloomy look on his face.

"Yes, Da Khan, Da Ce Ling will never disappoint Da Khan's expectations!"

After receiving the support of Galdan Celing, Daceling Dunduobu immediately returned to the front of the formation. He arranged for the remaining camel guns to start building artillery positions, and asked the artillery officers in the army to estimate the distance and prepare for the battle. Test shooting, this is the difference between the attacker and the defender. Compared with the defender, the attacker often needs more time for trial and error.

"Boom--"

After the camel cannon began to test fire, several projectiles were fired in front of the Fuhan army, but because of the lack of accuracy, it did not cause any blow to the Fuhan army—then Dong Ce's face became pale. Very dignified, because right now it's just a test shot, and when they find the right position, the two sides can only fall into a deadly battle.

"Hurry up and fire, and destroy another batch of artillery before they have enough accuracy!"

The artillery officer of the Fuhan Army blushed slightly, and he blew the whistle in a hurry, signaling for the artillerymen to continue to speed up the pace. After hearing the whistle, many artillerymen directly untied their generals' clothes Now, they just started loading and unloading the bombs with their shirts off and sweating. They are now firing almost faster than they were in training.

With the sound of cannons, waves of flowering bombs were fired into the air by the artillery of the Fuhan Army, and then landed on the artillery positions of the Zhungeer Army, but they were blown up to pieces, not only destroying ten thousand Several artillery pieces killed many gunners on the spot.

Seeing the heavy casualties in his own artillery position, Galdan Celing couldn't stand it anymore. He almost wanted to kill Da Celing with a single knife, but before he could take action, the last attempt of the Zhungeer Army The shooting finally achieved its goal. Several Fuhan Army artillery were destroyed by our own side, and more than a dozen Fuhan Army soldiers were killed!

Dace Lingdun Duobu almost jumped up with joy, and he shouted to the artillerymen: "Go on, hit me hard, and I will ask King Khan for your credit!"

After hearing Daceling Dunduobu's promise, the other Zhungeer soldiers naturally speeded up, but their original speed was much slower. No matter how fast they increased at this time, it seemed that they could not keep up with the frequency of the Fuhan army's firing. As for the accuracy of the two sides, the difference is even greater-in the end, the Fuhan army could destroy several or even more than ten artillery pieces in each round of salvo, while the Zhungeer army could only destroy three or four artillery pieces. The Fuhan Army Artillery.

When the battle situation developed to this scene, both sides actually realized one thing, that is, the rest of the battle was bayonet hand-to-hand combat. There were only about 180 cannons left in the Fuhan Army, a difference of three times.

Of course, in the actual battle, because the artillery of the Fuhan Army has a longer range, higher accuracy, and greater power, although the number is small, it can actually take advantage of it. In the middle, the two sides come and go, but the fight is extremely lively.

The artillery battle lasted for more than two full hours, and the losses of both sides became extremely heavy. At this point, even the Zhungeer Army couldn't stand it anymore. After paying the price of more than 160 artillery pieces, the Zhungeer Army failed. It just destroyed more than forty artillery pieces of the Fuhan Army, and the battle damage ratio almost reached a tragic level of four to one. Therefore, even Galdan Celing couldn't bear it, and he would never allow his artillery to be destroyed in this battle. completely lost in.

"Boom-boom-boom-"

With the sound of marching drums, the infantry army of the Zhungeer Army began to attack in the direction of the Fuhan Army's chariot camp. They maintained a complete formation, with musketeers in the front row, archers in the middle, and finally all Hand-to-hand soldiers with swords, and thousands of cavalry in the distance are staring at one side, ready to rush into the car camp and kill wantonly.

As far as the Zhungeer army is concerned, their tactics are essentially similar to those of the Fuhan army. They first bombarded with artillery, and after the artillery achieved certain results, they used muskets to conduct intensive long-distance shooting. However, since their firearms have not been fully equipped, some archers are needed to supplement them, and finally it is hand-to-hand infantry.

"Prepare!"

When Zhungeer's infantry was getting closer and closer to the car camp, Dong Ce couldn't help raising his arms and shouting. He held a saber in his hand and pointed at the Zhungeer army ahead. murderous look.

150 steps.

120 steps.

One hundred steps.

"boom--"

At a hundred paces, with a burst of neat and clear gunshots, a thick puff of smoke rose from the lines of the soldiers of the Fuhan Army, and a whole row of black lead bullets was fired over like rain. A line of blood was created in the array of Zhungeer soldiers on the opposite side. With this blow alone, more than 60 Zhungeer soldiers fell to the ground.

The range of the muskets held by the Zhungeer soldiers is about eighty paces. If they also choose to shoot at one hundred paces, they will not have the accuracy of the Fuhan army. It is not cost-effective to fight, so they can only Endure the second round of shooting from the Fuhan army and continue to move forward.

After waiting for a distance of eighty steps, the Zhungeer soldiers finally began to prepare for the first round of volleys, but soon discovered the extremely tragic point, that is, their muskets were all arquebus guns. , the rate of fire was much slower, so after the Zhungeer soldiers fired and fired, the Fuhan army had fought over for two rounds again, and continued to knock down hundreds of Zhungeer soldiers.

"Boom-boom-"

The first round of volleys that placed high hopes on the Zhungeer Army was finally fired, but the result made Gal Dance's heart bleed. It turned out that the Fuhan Army relied on the barriers of the car camp to shoot, and the top was full of sandbags and soil bags. Most of the lead bullets almost hit it, but only a few dozen people in the Fuhan army were hit and fell to the ground.

And just when Zhungeer's monarchs and ministers were dumbfounded, a new round of shooting by the Fuhan army appeared again, and this time it also took more than 80 lives. It can be said that in the face of the efficient killing efficiency of the Fuhan army, Zhungeer The army is like a piece of ice exposed to the sun. It looks huge, but it perishes very quickly.

"Khan, we can't fight like this anymore. If we continue to fight like this, even if we take down these people, our own losses will never be small!"

Ji Dawaqi of Zhungeer Xiaotai quickly knelt down. Most of the people who died just now were his subordinates, so he couldn't just watch these people die here in vain.

Galdan Celing gritted his teeth, pulled out the scimitar from his waist, and said loudly: "Let the death camp, whoever goes to the camp first, will be spared the death penalty and will be rewarded with a thousand gold!"

"kill!"

Accompanied by the roar, the Zhungeer archers and the soldiers of the death camp began to rush forward, while the Fuhan army fired in an orderly manner. Under the attack of firepower, the Zhungeer soldiers naturally suffered casualties along the way, but fortunately, the formation is scattered now, and they persisted.

When the distance between the two sides was reduced to thirty steps, the Zhungeer archers began to shoot into the air, and a large number of arrows landed in the camp, but caused certain casualties. The armor was not approved, so many people were shot to the ground by bows and arrows, but it caused a certain amount of confusion.

In fact, the reason why the Fuhan Army is in chaos right now is because most of the East Route Army is composed of recruits. If they have fought one or two battles, the situation will improve a lot, but It happened that they met Galdan Celing's main force in the first battle, so it was inevitable that they would behave improperly.

Dong Ce looked at the Zhungeer army that was close at hand, and the soldiers of the Fuhan army who were scattered, with a slight hint of anger on his face. He ignored the rain of arrows and slashed down with his general saber.

"Keep shooting! The military law team is ready to enforce battlefield discipline at any time, and those who retreat will be cut!"

"If one person retreats, the whole team will be killed! If one team retreats, the entire company will be killed! If one team retreats, the whole battalion will be killed!"

The cruel system of continuous sitting is not uncommon in the Fuhan army. After all, in wartime, everyone will have a timid mentality. This kind of psychology is understandable, but it cannot be forgiven, because once they retreat because of timidity, it may be driven. The collapse of the entire team, so the Fuhan Army has also implemented strict military discipline for a long time on the premise of establishing a sound material support.

Under such strict orders, although the soldiers of the Fuhan Army are still suffering casualties, the others have calmed down. When they know that the military law team behind them is even more terrifying, they can only face the enemy in front of them calmly. army.
