Crazy at the end of the Ming Dynasty

The Qing army's sudden switch from defense to offense really caught the Daping army by surprise.First of all, the artillery of the phalanx was not placed in place, and a complete infantry artillery formation could not be formed.Then the phalanx stopped and lined up for defense, which was incomplete in a hurry.

So after only three rounds of shooting, the Qing cavalry rushed in front of them.Not all the cavalry at the front were knocked down.More than a dozen of the fish that slipped through the net rushed to the front of the gunners, and knocked some gunners away.

Although in the following, these cavalrymen were basically pierced by the gun flower formation, but they effectively shook the phalanx, and made the subsequent cavalry charge into the formation, no longer hit by the firecrackers.

One row, two rows, three rows... The Qing cavalry's charge was very resolute.Just now, Dorgon made up his mind to switch from defense to offense, and he allocated the most elite troops to the left and right wings.This also reflects Dorgon's decisive and desperate character.

Azig and Tuberi, who commanded the right wing, were also determined.They don't care about feint or main attack, as long as they defeat the left wing of the Daping Army first, wouldn't that attract more troops of the Daping Army?

With a sound of "wow", the gun flower formations in front of the two phalanxes were finally washed away.The cavalry of the Qing army rushed into the phalanx row by row. Although the Qing soldiers who rushed in first were chopped down by axes and spears, each Qing soldier always took the lives of several Daping soldiers.

In such a life-changing time, the remaining Daping army finally couldn't hold on.Although the soldiers of these two phalanxes fought bravely, they still fought to the death in an unfavorable situation.But human power will eventually run out.The scattered infantry can't stop the torrent of cavalry.When thousands of Qing troops charged continuously, the two phalanxes were finally overwhelmed.

But the Qing army did not stop charging, when they successfully broke through the two phalanxes.These Qing army cavalry did not chase down the scattered Daping army soldiers. They still lined up in a linear array, bypassing the back of the phalanx, and roared towards the artillery position of the Daping army in the middle.

"Turn the muzzle! Load the shotgun! All gunners line up to the side!" The artillery commander commanding the artillery immediately ordered loudly when he saw that the Qing cavalry was targeting him.

However, the artillery of the Daping Army was lined up in the direction of the Qing army, while the Qing cavalry on the left rushed over from the flank of the artillery.The muzzle was not aimed at the Qing army at all.That is, the artillery on the farthest side can turn the muzzle.Coupled with a few swarms of bees, this is all the firepower to deal with the Qing army.

The Daping army phalanx followed closely behind, and the gunners in front of the formation also ran forward one after another.Shoot freely at this Qing army.But the Qing army did not care about their own fall, just staring at the artillery of the Daping Army, and wanted to wipe out all the artillery of the Daping Army.

"Whoosh, whoosh—!", the swarm of bees finally ignited.Hundreds of rockets flew away.Immediately opened a gap in the front row of the Qing army.However, the charging Qing army immediately moved closer, and once again tightened their formation, still maintaining a high-speed sprint.

"Boom!", the cannonball also fired, iron sand flew out from the muzzle, and immediately smashed the Qing soldiers in the fan.But the rest of the Qing soldiers had already rushed to the front of the artillery, cutting down the artillery with guns and knives, and several Qing soldiers even threw their nooses.Put it on the gun body of the artillery and overturn the artillery.then.They rushed to the second artillery without stopping.

……

More and more cannons were overturned by the Daping Army, but more and more gunners gathered around them.The dense free shooting has formed a great density, and the continuous firing of swarms and shotguns also knocked down a large number of Qing cavalry.By the time of the eighth artillery, the remaining Qing soldiers finally could not maintain the cavalry formation. They all dispersed and rushed towards the artillery behind.

The ninth door, the tenth door... until the No. 12 door was overturned, the gunners of the guarding artillery team gathered on this side, and finally lined up the firing array.As the firecrackers began to fire in bursts, the surrounding Daping army surrounded them again. Seeing that there was nothing they could do, the group of Qing army cavalry gave up continuing to attack and rushed back to their own troops.

The total number of Qing cavalry who broke through the phalanx this time was only nearly [-].However, they charged decisively, but inflicted great damage on the artillery of the Daping Army.Although in the end, there were less than [-] Qing soldiers who were able to retreat smoothly, but after losing so many artillery pieces, the Daping Army could no longer gather enough artillery pieces to conduct mass shooting.

Having suffered such a huge loss, Xue Yongli, who was in command, was furious.But now is not the time to analyze gains and losses, Xue Yongli immediately ordered the second row of phalanxes to move forward, and transferred the calligraphy and ink department as a reserve team to the left wing to block the gap opened by the Qing army.

Seeing that the two phalanxes on the right wing had been defeated, Azig and Tuberi issued orders one after another: Let the follow-up cavalry continue to line up in a linear array and continue to march toward the middle phalanx. Charge.

But at this time, the Daping Army, which had just suffered a loss, was finally ready.First, long-range regimental artillery fire, followed by burst fire, followed by a swarm of bees and shotgun supplements. Under such intensive firepower, the cavalry in the first three rows of the Qing army were fired one after another before the guns and flower formations came into play. Knocked down.

Seeing the intensive firepower of the Daping Army, the phalanx behind stepped forward to block the gap.Generals such as Azig and Tuberi immediately called for gold to withdraw their troops, preventing the Qing army from charging again, and preventing their troops from being lost in vain.

Although the second charge was somewhat anticlimactic, Azig and the others did not forget that they were feinting.Now the attention of the Daping army has been attracted to their side, so Azig and the others have completed their task.

At this time, the Central Army Office of the Qing Army sounded the sound of battle drums again. With a sound of "wow", the defensive formation on the left wing of the Qing army dispersed again, and Hauge and Wu Sangui launched a real offensive.

This time, Hauge and Wu Sangui also invested heavily.The guards of the 3000 Guanning Iron Cavalry were in front, and the banner men of the [-] Lianghuang Banners were behind. They rushed towards the three phalanxes on the right wing of the Daping Army.

The high-speed cavalry withstood the artillery fire of the Daping Army, rushed a hundred steps at once, and entered the range of the Daping Army's gunfire.Seeing the Qing army approaching, the Daping Army's first row of firecrackers immediately fired a volley, but with this volley, the three-eyed firecrackers of Guan Ning's cavalry also fired.

For a long time, the Daping Army has never encountered any resistance to the enemy cavalry's bursts of fire.Therefore, Guan Ning's iron cavalry shot this time, all of a sudden, the firing array of firecrackers was a little chaotic.But when the Daping army just ended the chaos and fired again, the second shot of Guan Ning's cavalry started.Then came the third time....
