The Soul of the Han Dynasty in the Late Ming Dynasty

Chapter 793
It is obvious that both the Jiannu and the Tartars are unwilling to go all out. Their purpose now is not to fight, but to escape, and they will not foolishly throw themselves into the trap.

This battle directly reduced the Qing army's horses by a small half, lost more than [-] soldiers, and cut off [-] to [-]% of the bannermen and coated slaves.

How many people can be born to love to be slaves?The Han people had no choice but to serve Jiannu as clothes, just to survive.

When they found out that their master was surrounded and caught in a hard fight, most of the slaves, regardless of whether they were banners or coats, lay on the ground with their heads in their hands and refused to stand up again.

The Manchu and Mongolian cavalry were too busy to take care of themselves, and how could they care about dealing with the coat lying on the ground. They hurriedly rode their horses to break through, and many fast-moving Jiannu and Tartars were lucky enough to escape the sky and earth net laid by the "Red Banner Army". .

Surrounded by dozens of Bayalas and hundreds of soldiers, Duduo lost more than half of his coat, nearly [-] subordinates and most of his luggage without seeing the enemy and without getting a chance to fight the "Red Banner Army". Want to cry but have no tears.

Only then did he realize that the problem was serious, and he should have become the target of the "Red Banner Army".

This is the encirclement and annihilation plan formulated by Song Pengfei, Sun Chuanting, Chen Qiyu, etc., and the generals jokingly called it "layer by layer".

As long as Doduo's 5000 men and horses fall into the trap, they will lose a layer of skin every time they pass a level, as many as [-] men and horses, and as little as [-] to [-] horses.

After crossing the Pinggu River, the Duoduo tribe with only [-] people left became more rugged, and many mountain paths were obviously damaged. They tossed back and forth for three or four days but failed to find the way back to the west.

Not only that, as long as they pass through high mountains and dense forests, there will be a reduction in personnel. It is not that the Manchu and Mongolian cavalry deserted and became deserters, but they will be blocked by Mini gunners and bombed randomly by planted landmines.

The commander-in-chief here is Song Pengfei, and he couldn't help but think of how he installed gunpowder explosives to plan to follow the Jiannu when he first followed the Patriarch.

Now the equipment is completely different. On the basis of several mine cannons successfully developed by Li Tiancheng of the Daming Military Bureau, Qingniwa Arsenal has derived different types of mine cannons, making the Manchu and Mongolian cavalry hard to defend against.

The Qing army was terrified. When they set foot on the unknown road, they were terrified. When they heard the explosion, they hurriedly rolled off their horses and lay on the ground with their heads in their hands.

Daming's officialdom is overstaffed, and if the "Red Banner Army" system wants to obtain the latest technology owned by Daming, it only needs to spend some money and put some effort into it.

The Qingniwa Armory even dug out two direct disciples of Li Tiancheng, and this time Li Tiancheng's name was on the official selection list of "Hanjiang Province".

Therefore, the landmine artillery produced by the "Red Banner Army" is of high quality and more stable than the products of the Daming Bingzhan Bureau.

The trigger mechanism of the mine cannon inspired master craftsmen and academic technicians who were working on new weapons. They were already trying to make the mine cannon the size of a cannonball, which exploded after being fired into the enemy's position by the artillery.

The big problem that needs to be solved now is how to avoid the shells loaded with a few kilograms or more than ten kilograms of gunpowder from exploding directly in the barrel, but only after they are released from the barrel and land on the ground.

It is estimated that a lot of manpower, material resources, and research and development regardless of cost will be invested. Hundreds of researchers including a dozen senior veteran gunners will work together to break through the bottleneck in a short time.

After being able to explode on the ground, Huang Han will open the gold finger in time, and propose to pre-fragment the cast iron shell of the shell to increase the lethality.

Huang Han believed that when he traveled across the oceans to open up overseas colonies, the "Red Banner Army" would have explosive ammunition with actual combat performance, and would become the first country in the world to use grenades.

The benefits of the Han people being able to stay one step ahead are self-evident. Defeating Western Yi to dominate the Atlantic Ocean and control maritime trade interests will curb the development of colonial empires such as England, France, and the Netherlands.

This ebbs and flows, the greater the share of the Han people in maritime trade, the more profits they make, the stronger the national strength, and the Han people also have a demographic dividend. Who else can I become an empire on which the sun never sets in the long run?
Being attacked by the "Red Banner Army" in various ways, the Qing army mourned, but the battle losses of the soldiers of the battalions involved in the encirclement and suppression were negligible, with only dozens of casualties in a few days.

The few coated slaves and bannermen did not want to flee with their masters, but tried their best to hide in the mountains and forests and surrender to the "Red Banner Army" when their masters were attacked.

It was only seven or eight days after being attacked by the "Red Banner Army", and the Han Chinese were basically invisible in Duduo's team. Spread among the people.

Their vain attempt to evacuate from the mountainous area was no longer possible. Chen Qiyu not only led the ambush subordinates to cut off the retreat of the Qing army, but the cavalry of the "Red Banner Army" also appeared not far away.

Breaking through to the west will return to the ambushed Pingguchuan boundary. How can the Mongolian cavalry be willing to turn back?

A section of the mountain road in front was blocked again, and when the Manchu and Mongolian cavalry were brutalized by Fran machine guns, miniguns, and self-generated guns and lost 2000 troops, Duoduo was already in chaos.

At the end of August, Duoduo gave the order to break out of the encirclement, and he took more than [-] abandoned horses from the direct descendants of the Xiangbai Banner into the mountains and forests and continued to the northeast.

Manzhu Xili took four or five thousand Mongolian light cavalry and turned to the southeast to find a way in an attempt to break through.

Jiannu was able to hunt in deep mountains and dense forests, he was all-round in horseback riding, and possessed the instinct of mountain warfare. He was still struggling to survive the constant attacks of the "Red Banner Army" in the mountains and forests.

Most of the Mongols are bow-legged, fearing to leave their horses and go into the forest. When they followed Manzhu Xili to search for a road in the southeast, deserters began to appear.

This is because some Tartars were desperate, and they made a wise choice-to break away from the large forces and surrender to the "Red Banner Army".

Seven days later, the Tartars were ambushed again by Sun Chuanting and killed two or three thousand people on the spot. More than two thousand Mongols with shattered livers and gallbladders were captured. Manzhu Xili was shot to death in this ambush.

It is not unexpected that the forced Jiannu will abandon his horse and enter the forest. The Zongzan Painting Department has already planned.

The "Red Banner Army" infantry, with the cooperation of the dog search team, searched for the Jiannu who ran into the forest in units of [-] generals.

The young soldiers of the pro-guard battalion also dismounted and took part in the search with military dogs.

Compared with cavalry battles, the youths of the Guards Battalion are more suitable for infantry and mountain warfare. Most of these young people are equipped with miniguns, and they are all good shooters. They also have short guns pinned to their waists. unambiguous.

There are hundreds of military dogs, and Ge Daben, the dog king, personally participated. Only the guard camp boys had the opportunity to ambush Jiannu. The possibility of being ambushed by Jiannu was basically ruled out, because Jiannu could not deal with hundreds of dogs. Search for military dogs.
