Start a Ming Dynasty plane

Wars often start inadvertently. When Li Dingguo's army was halfway across the river, the Tazi's cavalry was ready to charge. attack.

Crowds of cavalry rushed down from the hillside, really thundering, the whole battlefield was filled with gunpowder, arrows flew, shouts of killing shook the sky, and horseshoes trampled the ground, causing the whole ground to tremble.

However, Li Dingguo had been prepared for a long time. When he was crossing the river, he only sent some cavalry over, and left the heavy artillery and other equipment in the army on the other side of the river. It started to bomb.

Boom, boom, boom!
With every sound of the cannon, a cannonball will plunge into the enemy's cavalry team, smashing all obstacles along the way, and finally explode with a bang, countless iron pieces flying, causing a devastating blow to the enemy.

Lantian seldom uses solid shells now, but uses flowering shells that can explode twice. Flowering shells are a good thing. When shot out, they can destroy everything along the way by virtue of physical inertia, and at the end, there will be a bang There was a loud noise, and the iron pieces that flew out could cause another secondary damage.

The artillery bombarded and bombarded the Tartars for a while. Gu Litai was still very brave. He picked up a big bow and arrow and shot at Lantian, and the first wave of cavalry on Lantian's side raised their big shields. Starting to block, the old man returned to Ma Shouying to command with a large shield in hand.

Therefore, the first wave of Manchu attacks on Lantian did not have much lethal effect.

But the strength of the cavalry is close combat. Seeing that the bow and arrow had little effect, Gu Litai was not discouraged and continued to urge the horse forward.

I have to say that the Jianzhou people were able to defeat the Han Chinese in Liaodong, and they still have their strengths.

Seeing this, Li Dingguo waved his hand at this time, and immediately all the cavalry raised their carbine, and aimed at the charging Tartars and fired a burst of fire.

The gun barrel sprayed wisps of flame, and the bullets brought out took the lives of Jianzhou cavalrymen.

When Gu Litai saw this, he saw a large number of cavalry in front of him being killed. Angrily, he wanted to attack desperately, but at this moment, there was a sound of horns from the Tartar barracks. The melodious voice was actually telling Gu Litai The force platform retreated.

Gu Litai was taken aback, and unwillingly looked at the Lantian army formation that was still a hundred steps away. At this moment, he immediately shouted angrily, followed by the cavalry automatically divided into two parts, distanced himself from Lantian, and avoided the wave of Lantian Powerful attack.

Gu Litai looked up the hillside puzzledly, and saw old Aji put on the armor, and beside him was the Guerjia family who wore the armor crookedly.

At this time, Guarjia was still a little drunk, his eyes were dazed and flushed.

It can be seen that he really drank a lot, but he is no longer important at this time, because the command of this battle has been handed over to Old Aji.

In the first wave of cavalry attack, Old Aji wanted to learn the art of war of the Han people, so he attacked halfway. Unfortunately, the enemy prepared again. The artillery and muskets were too dense. If the charge continued, the damage to the cavalry was too heavy. The cavalry was not consumed like this. of.

Old Aji called Jin to withdraw his troops, and immediately after the horn sounded again, he saw a group of Jianzhou people slowly appearing on the hillside. These Jianzhou people were wearing half armor and holding large shields in their hands. formation.

These are the heavy shield soldiers of Jianzhou, and they are also the elite of Jianzhou infantry. Jianzhou is not only cavalry, but infantry also occupies a very important position. In fact, Jianzhou people did not start riding and shooting like Mongolia. Better at fighting on foot.

Some military scientists believe that the soldiers of the Manchu Qing Dynasty cannot be regarded as cavalry, but at most they can be regarded as infantry who can ride horses.

They are better at fighting tough battles.

At this time, the Jianzhou infantry began to gather to form a shield formation, and slowly walked up the hillside. At this time, Li Dingguo's cavalry was halfway across the river. Seeing this, Li Dingguo immediately asked the soldiers to shoot at the shield formation.

But the shield soldiers are very strong against musketeers. The large shields of the Manchu Qing Dynasty are wooden shields covered with a layer of iron, and the carbine used by Lantian is made of iron sand, which cannot penetrate the shield at all. Therefore, after a burst of gunshots, the shield soldiers unexpectedly No damage.

Upon seeing this, Li Dingguo waved his hands and said, "Stop shooting, the artillery is ready, and the three bursts are ready."

As soon as Li Dingguo raised his hand, this kind of heavy shield soldier was very difficult to hurt with muskets, bows and arrows. If he was a rebel army in the past, he had no other choice but to use human life to fill in such a shield soldier.

But it's different now, I have cannons in my hands now, whoever is afraid of anyone with cannons, fuck his mother.

I have never fought such a rich battle in my life.

Thinking of Li Dingguo waving his hand, the new artillery made by the Lantian Military Factory behind him spit out flames and began to bombard the shield soldiers of the Manchu Qing.

The power of the artillery is still sufficient. A burst of artillery fire immediately opened a gap in the neatly arranged shield formation. Looking at the gradually scattered formation of the Tartar shield soldiers, Li Dingguo focused his eyes and said: "The lethality of the artillery alone is limited. We must send out cavalry to strike."

After hearing this, Wang Jiadong said, "I'll go."

Li Dingguo frowned slightly, but before he could speak, Ma Shouying came over with a long gun in his hand and said, "Dingguo, this won't work. We have artillery, but with such consumption, the damage is always limited. I want to lead a wave of killing."

After hearing this, Li Dingguo said: "I think so too, but it's very dangerous. Jiadong said just now that he is going to lead troops."

Upon hearing this, Ma Shouying looked at Wang Jiadong and said, "Jiadong, I'm from the special brigade. I'm very good at this kind of charge, let me do it."

After hearing this, Wang Jiadong said: "You are the political commissar, and it should be the job of me and the regiment leader to charge into battle. The regiment leader needs to take care of the overall situation, so I will handle the task of rushing into battle this time."

As soon as Wang Jiadong finished speaking, Ma Shouying said: "No, Jiadong and we don't know each other well. You are good at defensive counterattacks, and I am good at cavalry raids. I will do that."

After Ma Shouying said this, he looked at Li Dingguo and said, "Besides, when our special brigade was training, we intentionally trained to cooperate with artillery and rifles. When we charge, we can still use artillery to bombard the Tartars without delay."

After hearing this, Li Dingguo looked at Ma Shouying and said, "Infantry coordination?"

Ma Shouying nodded and said: "That's right, the infantry and the artillery fight together, the infantry can also be replaced by the cavalry, it doesn't matter, and the artillery of our regiment are all special gunners who have served in the special brigade back then, I will cooperate with them Relatively tacit."

After hearing this, Li Dingguo nodded and said, "Alright then, but be careful."

After hearing this, Ma Shouying readily agreed, and the next moment he waved his hand, five hundred cavalrymen were ready. At this moment, Ma Shouying got on his horse and shouted angrily, "Brothers, follow me and kill the Tartars."

As he spoke, Ma Shouying raised his long spear and shouted: "With the gun in hand, follow me, kill the Tartars, avenge blood, kill!"

Ma Shouying led the cavalry and rushed towards the shield formation of the Tartars. It is common sense that the cavalry restrained the shield soldiers.

At this time, the cavalry charged, and the shield soldiers of the Tartars immediately felt great pressure and began to gather. A single shield soldier could only be slaughtered against the cavalry, but the formation of the shield soldiers was different.

However, as long as the shield soldiers form an formation, Lantian's artillery will fire, and the artillery shells will be sent to the most needed places by the artillerymen. Where the most needed places are, they will be dispersed by the cavalry, or those who have the intention to form an formation For the Jianzhou people, as long as the Jianzhou people gather there, the shell will definitely land on the gathering place accurately, blowing up the people who have just gathered and blowing everyone up.

In the end, Jianzhou's shield soldiers failed to block Ma Shouying's cavalry and Lantian artillery's infantry in coordinated operations. After several charges, they began to show signs of fleeing.

At this time, Ma Shouying pulled out the spear from the chest of a Jianzhou shield soldier, looked at the weakest point of the Jianzhou shield soldier, raised the spear in his hand, and shouted: "Kill!"

With a roar, the cavalry gathered and charged again. At this time, the old Aji standing on the hillside frowned, while the big man of the Guarja clan next to him roared: "Waste, waste, even five hundred cavalry can't stop it. They don't deserve to be the slaves of the Qing Dynasty, they should be the slaves of the Han dogs."

Hearing the noise of the Guerjia man, old Aji felt agitated. At this time, old Aji waved his hand and let the broken Gulitai come back with the cavalry. The shield soldiers were really at a disadvantage to the cavalry.

So if you want to deal with cavalry, you need cavalry.

Old Aji waved his hand, followed by Gu Litai and waved the command flag in his hand: "Assemble, let me kill Hangou!"

Gu Litai was still very authoritative as a eagle shooter. At this moment, he roared, and immediately the cavalry began to fight back towards Ma Shouying.

At the same time, Old Aji waved his hand and said, "Pull it up."

At the next moment, a group of Jianzhou people pushed up eight cannons. These cannons were very large. They were seized by Jiannu from the Daming border, and they have become Jiannu's killer weapons.

The importance of the logistics supply area is still very great. After all, a large amount of grain and grass in the Qing Dynasty can be stored here. With so many grain and grass important areas, Dorgon left these eight cannons at the bottom of the box.

This cannon is the most primitive red-clothed cannon, but primitive does not mean that its power is not enough. At this time, old Aji said: "Reload and blast me!"

After hearing this, Jiannu immediately loaded the cannon with ammunition and aimed at the Lantian army formation.

huh~
boom!
A cannon sounded from Li Dingguo's left ear. Looking for the sound, he saw countless black spots flying in the air, and the next moment was the sound of cannon fire.

Hearing the sound of cannon fire, Li Dingguo was taken aback for a moment. He didn't expect Jiannu to have cannons. At this moment, Li Dingguo yelled: "Get out of the way, let me get out of the way."

After hearing this, the Lantian soldiers quickly dispersed and looked for cover. Regarding artillery, no one in the entire Ming Dynasty knew better than the Lantian people.

They usually not only use artillery, but also do anti-artillery training. Artillery needs to know that the artillery is the key point. If they want to retreat, blow up this key point. The artillery is a pile of scrap metal, which is of no use to the enemy.

These are what military training needs to learn.

At this time Li Dingguo let out a roar, and the next moment, all the soldiers dodged, the shell fell from the air, knocked mischievously on the hard rock, smashed the powder from the rock, and then flew out, landing on the ground with a bang. Ten meters away from Li Dingguo, Li Dingguo's personal guards yelled badly when they saw this, and immediately threw Li Dingguo under him.

The cannonball landed on the ground and spun around a few times, and finally stopped five meters away from Li Dingguo, but there was no explosion as expected.

Li Dingguo pulled away the two bodyguards, looked at the shells and cursed: "Damn, solid shells."

The most primitive artillery of the Ming Dynasty used solid bullets, and the main killing effect was to smash them. When this shell hits, it can directly smash the hard granite into pieces. If it hits a person, it can directly smash the person into a meatloaf.

As for Lantian's blooming bomb, there was still gunpowder in the shell. After landing, the gunpowder in the shell exploded a second time, and the iron flakes flew out the next moment to hurt people.

The killing area is larger, just like just now, if it is an explosive bomb, Li Dingguo is not sure whether he will die or not, but the possibility of the death of the guards who jumped on him is more likely.

Li Dingguo took the hot iron ball from his personal guard, put it on the ground and said, "It's quite heavy, sixteen or seventeen catties."

At this time, the soldier on the side said: "We heard from the teacher in class that this primitive solid shell is a standard [-]-pound cannon, and its power can blast open the gates of ordinary county towns."

After hearing this, Li Dingguo said: "Well, I just didn't expect that the Tartars also have artillery. Don't they claim to conquer the world with bows and horses?"

After hearing this, the soldier said: "Regimental Commander, you haven't listened to the military class. The master said in it that the Jiannu bullshit used bows and horses to conquer the world. When the old slave Nurhachi, they really only used bows and horses, but since the emperor When Taiji ascended the throne, they actively used firearms, and recruited Kong Youde. It is still gratifying, and Geng Jingzhong and his ilk were named Sanshun Kings. They successfully inherited Mao Wenlong's legacy in Pidao, including artillery and craftsmen. So it’s no surprise that the Tartars have artillery.”

Li Dingguo was taught a lesson by his soldiers, but Li Dingguo could not become angry because this is the rule of Lantian, what you know is what you know, what you don't know is what you don't know, and those who understand are teachers.

In the Lantian Army, if the soldiers are not malicious, they can spread knowledge to their officers, and this will not arouse their rejection. If it is in the Ming army, the officers will kill you, and you actually let them lose face in person.

Li Dingguo didn't get entangled in this matter, but looked at the place where the Tartar artillery attacked. This was obviously the artillery preparing to attack Lantian, because it could be seen that the opponent's artillery was all firing towards the opposite side of the river.

The opponent's strategic purpose is obvious. Lantian's strongest is artillery. As long as Lantian's artillery is destroyed, in hand-to-hand combat, it is impossible for their Jianzhou warriors to lose to the Han people.

Li Dingguo looked at the artillery firing towards the other side of the river, and after a few glances, he laughed, because Li Dingguo found that the range of the opponent's artillery was not as long as that of the Lantian artillery. The Lantian artillery could easily hit the Tartars, but the Tartars couldn't hit him.

Li Dingguo was thinking, looking at the other side of the battlefield, Ma Shouying had already fought against the cavalry of Gulitai, and at this time the opponent's shield soldiers were still preparing to gather. Seeing this, Li Dingguo shouted: "Jiadong, gather the cavalry and attack the shield soldiers , don’t let them gather.”

"Yes."
