Crazy at the end of the Ming Dynasty

This move by He Fei disrupted the deployment of the Qing army at once, and the Qing army on the east wing was also in a commotion, feeling at a loss for the approach of these two infantry regiments.It wasn't until Dorgon's order was delivered that Tan Tu, who commanded the right-wing Qing army, hurriedly gathered nearly [-] Qing cavalry and rushed out of the skirmish line ahead.

After a period of confrontation, the two armies immediately broke out around the small hill occupied by Shumo.

Seeing the two thousand-man phalanxes of the Runing Army approaching, the Liu Shun Department of the Qing Army immediately made preparations. The King Sanshun's troops, born out of Sun Yuanhua's chariot battalion, are best at this kind of defensive warfare.

However, when the phalanx of the Runing Army reached a distance of five or six hundred steps from Liu Shun's troops, they stopped again amidst the rapid beating of drums.Before Liu Shun and the others figured out the situation, in the passage between the two phalanxes, a gun carriage rushed out first, and then a long line of artillery carriages drove out from the passage one by one in a long queue.

The first gun carriage rushed straight to the distance of three or four hundred steps from Liu Shun's troops, then turned a 180-degree turn in front of the formation, aimed the muzzle at Liu Shun's troops, then untied the reins, adjusted the muzzle, and compacted the ammunition. Liu Shun and the others were stunned by a series of dazzling movements.It wasn't until the gunner lit the match and the shells flew out of the barrel that Liu Shun and the others reacted.

"The Han dog is firing! Hurry up and fight back!" Liu Shun shouted hoarsely.

Accompanied by Liu Shun's shout, King Sanshun's soldiers immediately fired more than [-] tiger squatting cannons and Frang cannons one by one, even the bird guns and eagle guns were fired one after another, no matter whether they were within the range or not. .The artillery of the Runing Army was immediately covered by the artillery shells of King Sanshun, and even the two artillery vehicles that followed were knocked down by the shells one after another.

Although the artillery of the Runing Army has a long range, they want to cover Liu Shun's troops with artillery fire, not simply hit Liu Shun's troops in front of the formation.Therefore, the artillery of the Runing Army had to approach and shoot. In this way, the difference in range between the two sides had actually been offset.At this time, the artillerymen of both sides actually started to "fight the bayonet", and it depends on who is more brave and tenacious.

Xiong Zhengen was sitting on the third gun carriage, and he saw puffs of white smoke rising from the front of the Qing army, and then dozens of small black spots flew over from small to large, and hit his surroundings all at once.

The gun carriage in front was hit by a shell, and the whole vehicle was immediately smashed to pieces, and a large piece of debris roared towards Xiong Zhengen.Xiong Zhengen lowered his head subconsciously, only to feel a gust of wind in his ears, and Xiong Zhengen rolled over and fell under the cannon carriage.

The artillery carriage behind hurriedly avoided Xiong Zhengen who was on the ground. Xiong Zhengen rolled a few times on the ground and got up with his hands on the ground.He felt wetness on his forehead.When I touched it with my hand, it was covered with blood.Xiong Zhengen's personal soldiers also ran over.They quickly supported Xiong Zhengen, who was a little unsteady.

But Xiong Zhengen pushed them away one by one.He yelled loudly: "Leave me alone! Move faster! Stop and shoot!" But after he finished yelling, he realized that he could no longer hear his yelling, and there was only the sound of "buzzing" in his ears. Deaf.

"My lord! You are injured!" The soldiers around shouted anxiously.

Xiong Zhengen could only see the lips of his own soldiers moving, but he couldn't hear their words at all.But he still wants to persevere, and he still has luck in his heart: "Maybe my hearing will recover soon. If I quit the battle due to injuries just after the battle, those bastards of infantry and cavalry will definitely roll on the floor laughing." of."

So Xiong Zhengen pushed away the support of the soldiers again: "Get out of the way!" Then he raised his legs and walked towards the front of the formation.But as soon as he took a step, Xiong Zhengen lost his balance.He fell face down on a dog gnawing mud.The splashed debris just now not only hurt Xiong Zhengen's forehead, but also hurt his cochlea. Now he can't grasp the sense of balance well.

The soldiers never dared to let Xiong Zhengen's waywardness go.They hurriedly stepped forward to support Xiong Zhengen, and led several empty horses, put Xiong Zhengen on the horses and helped them, and then dragged the horses and ran back.

Xiong Zhengen also knew that he must withdraw from the battle. With his appearance, he couldn't command at all, so he shouted and ordered: "The artillery will be transferred to Commander Guan!" The horse neighed for a while.

Although Xiong Zhengen was forced to withdraw from the battlefield, after Guan Xin, the deputy commander of the Cavalry Association, took over the command, the artillery firing of the Runing Army was not affected.

In fact, there was nothing to command at this time, that is, the artillery vehicles drove to the front of the formation and fired continuously.The Runing Army originally had more artillery than the Qing Army Liu Shun's, with larger calibers and a faster firing rate, so with the artillery in place, this artillery battle gradually became one-sided.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Liu Shun wanted to escape, but it was too late. The shells of the Runing Army had already torn the scull carts in front of Liu Shun's troops into pieces, and now they were "ploughing" Liu Shun's troops over and over again. .A shell fell right in front of Liu Shun, and hit Liu Shun's body after bouncing up, smashing him into a bloody mess immediately.

But at this time, these soldiers of King Sanshun no longer cared about their commanders. They were all fleeing with their heads in their arms, and no one wanted to fight back. They ran towards the main formation of the Qing army, trying to get farther and farther away from the artillery of the Runing army. good.

Dorgon, who was watching the battle from the rear, saw the gun carriages of the Runing Army driving towards the front of the formation, but he was fine. Seeing the artillery of the Runing Army firing so quickly, he immediately stood upright from his horseback.

"Quickly take that cannon! Quickly take that cannon!" Dorgon shouted excitedly, "As long as you take this cannon, this battle will be worthwhile. Hurry up!" Several messengers ordered The soldiers immediately flew to the Tantu Department on the east side.

Dorgon knew the meaning of these artillery.If the Qing Dynasty had such a military weapon, coupled with the unparalleled iron cavalry, it would really be at my will.

However, with the intensive firing of the artillery group of the Runing Army, Dorgon gradually calmed down.Now these cannons are in the hands of the Ming army on the opposite side!To fight against such an opponent, I don't know how many national athletes will be filled.

The generals of the Qing army also silently watched Liu Shun's troops being covered by artillery fire. At this time, they were all speechless, and everyone was thinking in their hearts: "King Sanshun's Han army is over!"

After a long silence like this, suddenly, the messenger who sent the order to "seize the cannon" from the east wing galloped back, and he reported to Dorgon: "My lord! Tan Zuoling refused to step forward, saying that Minggou's cannon fire was too fierce! "

"Dare he? Is he really not afraid of military law?" Dorgon's anger erupted suddenly, and he slammed the whip in his hand to the ground. (To be continued..)
