Watching the battle fall into a stalemate, Dorgon shook his head slightly.Although today's battle was full of chaos and both sides tried their best, they still fell into the previous situation in the end, and no one could do anything to the other.

At this time, Dorgon began to calculate.Should we fight like this for a while, and then call gold to withdraw?Then retreat the main force to Liaodong, unite with Soni's troops, and defeat the Han army that came to aid first?

But in this way, Shanhaiguan will face a situation of siege.Even if the two cities of Ningyuan and Zhenyuan in Liaodong are defeated, it will be difficult for the Qing army to enter the customs through Shanhaiguan in the future. In the future, only one world outside the customs will be maintained.

Even when Wu Ni's dynasty has established its foothold, they can continuously train new troops, and the Qing Dynasty will gradually fall into a passive and beaten situation.After all, the Central Plains Dynasty still has a vast land, rich resources and a large population!

But invest in the elite of the Qing army and strive for victory in today's decisive battle?Not to mention whether they are sure of winning.Even if he really won, it would be a miserable victory.If the Qing army wins, at most it will conquer the city of Beijing, and then there will be no extra troops to control more places.

Therefore, the current Dorgon is full of troubles, and he can't think of a good way out for the Qing Dynasty.It can be seen from this that today's Daping army is just a tie, but the Qing army is a tie or a loser.However, this is also a feature of the war between the nomads outside the customs and the Central Plains dynasty, and the war potential of the two sides is not an order of magnitude.As for the Ming Dynasty and the Manchu Dynasty, which have been defeated for decades, it can only be said that the number of days.

But when Dorgon was hesitating, the Daping army suddenly began to switch from defense to offense.

obviously.Today's Xue Yongli is not satisfied with the result of a tie.So after withstood the Qing army's attack, he also decisively changed his deployment.

Xue Yongli mobilized a coordinator from Yang Rusong and Huhou Town, and gathered all the regimental artillery of the rear troops into the artillery team.The artillery team gathered more than 6000 artillery pieces, and then used Ma Shouying's more than [-] cavalry as cover to form a battle group.It is necessary to force a breakthrough from the middle road and attack the Qing army's middle road again.

So when the phalanx in the center of the Daping Army stepped aside to reveal the attacking troops, the soldiers of the Qing army who were drowsy from the stalemate were immediately stunned.

Some of the more optimistic generals of the Qing army were overjoyed, and the Han army on the opposite side finally came out of their turtle shells again.There is hope for the victory of the Qing Dynasty again.However, the hearts of some veteran Qing generals sank.In the first attack of the Daping Army today, two troops turned against the water, and this time it was an abnormal attack.So what new tricks do they have?

And seeing the Daping army suddenly turn from defense to offense, Dorgon was also refreshed.In any case, this also broke the deadlock on the battlefield.So Dorgon immediately asked the Qing army in the middle to prepare for defense and withstand the attack of this Daping army.And sent orders to the left and right wings.Let the Qing army on the two wings wait until the Daping army has rushed deeper.Immediately and quickly cut off the retreat of this Daping army, trying to surround it.

The battlefield suddenly fell silent, and the attention of all the soldiers on both sides was focused on the battle group.Around this battle group, both sides are also redeploying, and the smell of gunpowder on the battlefield is getting stronger and stronger.

And when the battle group moved seven or eight hundred steps away from the Qing army, they suddenly stopped.The phalanx soldiers in front of the artillery team also squatted down, and the artillery that had already been loaded with ammunition was fired immediately.

"Boom boom boom!", more than fifty artillery pieces were all fired at the defensive position in the middle of the Qing army.Immediately blow up the scull carts and carts that were used as cover in front of the formation to pieces.A round of shells plowed through the Qing army's formation, and immediately hit the Qing army in the middle into chaos.

The gunners of the Daping Army didn't even bother to observe the effect of shooting.They moved swiftly and continued to load ammunition.Using the fastest speed, the entire loading process was completed like a race against time. "Boom boom boom!", the second round of salvo started again.Then came the third round.

After three salvos of artillery fire, the Qing army in the middle could no longer hold their ground.The intensive firing of artillery has produced the effect of quantitative change to qualitative change.Such a shocking "plowing" immediately defeated the Qing army with no confidence.The Qing soldiers who were still alive in the middle ran desperately out of range.No one dares to stay in this shadow zone of death.The artillery cluster shooting of the Daping Army began to show off again.

Faced with such a threat of artillery, the cavalry on both wings of the Qing army did not hesitate to launch an attack.They lined up six or seven hundred paces away, and began to want to succeed in another charge and completely wipe out the artillery team of the Taiping Army.

But this battle group of the Daping Army has long been prepared.After three rounds of salvo, the artillery was divided into two groups, and the muzzles were turned to the left and right.Before the formation of the Qing troops on the two wings was completed, the artillery began to fire in clusters again.The covered shells knocked out the Qing cavalry on the left and right wings.

After suffering a sudden loss, the Qing troops on both wings immediately retreated.They wanted to get out of the range of the artillery and line up again, and they didn't dare to do anything under the fire of the artillery.Seeing that the situation was not good, Dorgon also began to concentrate the Qing cavalry in the middle, and wanted to besiege the battle group on three sides.

While the attention of the Qing army was focused on this prominent battle group, the phalanx of the Daping Army in the rear also began to move forward quietly.This time, the phalanx of the Daping Army was not lined up in a straight line, but the two sides were tilted up, forming an arc, which faintly protected the prominent battle group.

Xue Yongli's attack again is not only an act of fighting for the initiative on the battlefield, but also a "winner".Xue Yongli's tactical intention is very clear, that is to use this "unreasonable" attack to disrupt the rhythm of the Qing army and attract the Qing army to attack this battle group, thereby disrupting the deployment of the Qing army.And also transferred the main force of the Daping army to besiege the Qing army that attacked the battle group.Fight chaotic wars against chaotic wars, and use the well-trained Daping army to defeat the Qing army with varying combat effectiveness.

To be honest, this not only shows the strong offensive desire of Xue Yongli and other generals of the Daping Army, but also reflects Xue Yongli's strong spirit of adventure and courage to take risks.

However, the coaches of the two armies still did not expect that the mass launch of the artillery team would cause such a large result.Dorgon, who was not very familiar with the power of artillery, could forget it, but Xue Yongli had already commanded an artillery group battle, but he still underestimated the concentrated launch of this weapon.So when he saw such a result, Xue Yongli immediately became excited.

Of course, it wasn't just Xue Yongli who got excited, the gunners of the Daping Army, who were firing artillery, finally felt like the "God of War". (To be continued..)
