Chapter 605
In fact, Zhu Yousong has now set up a formation for the Daxi Army, and it is no longer the Yueyue formation, because it is not near the river, so it is impossible to fight back. There are only 300 chariots, so it is called the chariot formation.
There are 300 chariots, and each chariot is in charge of ten people, some are carrying spears, some are loading spears, and some are responsible for firing. This is 3000 people.
People who see this kind of weapon for the first time can't tell that it is a kind of weapon. If these farmers have cultivated the land, it is similar to the kind of trailer that pulls the plow. It is a large rectangular frame with two large wheels on both sides. One wheel is as tall as a person. To put it bluntly, it is a large wooden cart with an extremely simple structure. The large wooden cart can be moved by being pulled by animals.
Then there is a special bowstring on the big wooden cart. Of course, the arrows fired are not ordinary, but spears about ten feet long, or javelins.
Now 300 such chariots have been lined up in a long row. The spears of the chariot bow array have been installed, and the soldiers of the Ming army who are in charge of firing have wheeled the sledgehammer in their hands and started to strike.
It turns out that this kind of chariot bow does not rely on manpower to draw the bow to aim, but to launch it by hitting, which is extremely powerful.
In an instant, the first batch of javelins roared out from the chariot.
300 javelins filled the sky, raining down on General Onishi.
Of course, after they seized this weapon from the general of the Dashun Army, and sent it to the battlefield today, they have undergone many trainings, training range, training accuracy, training the coordination of loading and firing, and have formed combat effectiveness.
This guy looks cumbersome, but its shooting range is relatively long, one and a half times or even twice that of ordinary bows and arrows, which means that it has lethality from 50 steps to 300 steps.
Moreover, this kind of javelin is of course much more powerful than ordinary bows and arrows. A whistling spear can penetrate three white armored soldiers at a distance of a hundred paces. Will.If it is leather armor or unarmored soldiers, it can penetrate 4 to 6 at once.
This is the real candied haws.
Therefore, after the 300 javelins flew by, the Daxi army who was still in a daze cried for their father and mother. They had never seen such a powerful bow and arrow, so they were caught off guard.
A group of Daxi army generals in the front line were recruited one after another, especially those in the front line, many of the army generals were passed through their chests.
Some sat on the horse and didn't know what was going on. They only felt a shock in their heart. The javelin went in from the front and came out from the back. There was already a big blood hole in the chest, and the blood was rushing like a fountain.
In some cases, a javelin pierced four soldiers under their horses at the same time, and a general of the Western Army was pierced upside down with his horse.
Some generals reacted quickly and quickly took off the shields they were wearing, but just as they stood up, a spear roared and pierced the shields. Famous soldiers flew out from their horses, fell off their horses, and were trampled like mud by chaotic horses.
However, the chariot did not stop firing, but continued to load this special ammunition, and continued to strike and launch with a sledgehammer. Countless long javelins flew towards the Great West Army one after another, and the Great West Army was in chaos at that time.
Ordinary shields can't dodge it at all. Some generals are unconvinced and feel that they are more fierce. They waved their knives and guns to block them, but at this time they whizzed out javelins with strong penetrating power, not bows and arrows. Imagine bows and arrows It's not easy to stop them from falling to the ground.
Some only blocked one javelin, and were pierced by another javelin that flew in afterward.Some didn't even block a javelin, but just deviated slightly from the direction, and still penetrated the body.
For a while, blood foam flew in the air, like a rain of blood, this is the real bloody storm.
The lethality of the car bow formation is astonishing, and what is even greater is its deterrent power.
Just imagine, being pierced by Ling Fei's ten-foot-long javelin stringing candied haws or piercing through the chest, the visual impact is absolutely shocking, not to mention the peasants who are in battle, even the army in the city can't bear it.
The Daxi army had never enjoyed this kind of weapon treatment. They only knew that Zhu Yousong had two ace troops who were more powerful. They didn't expect to suffer from this kind of weapon today. They were really helpless, but they couldn't wait to die.
So the uninjured people in the front scattered and fled, the ones in the back rushed forward, the ones in the front ran back, you pushed each other, the command was ineffective, and 20 horses squeezed and trampled each other.
Zhu Yousong was standing several miles away at this time, and he could see clearly through the telescope through the long tube.
"Your Majesty, it's almost time. The Great Western Army is in disarray, let's charge!" the one-eyed general Ma Wannian was eager to try.
"What are you busy with? Let our chariot formation show its power. We have to thank Niu Jinxing and Li Zicheng for today's battle." Zhu Yousong laughed out loud, and all the generals also laughed. .The man's laughter is loud, and the woman's laughter is crisp.
It took about half an hour for the chariot bow array to launch. Zhu Yousong saw that it was almost done, and ordered Ma Jinhua to command the imperial cavalry to charge, followed by the white soldiers commanded by Ma Wannian.
The 6000 men of these two trump card divisions rushed down the high slope like the tigers on the mountain, and rushed towards the Great Western Army.
The original more than 3 Ming troops in the battalion were scattered and fled after being killed by the Daxi Army on the surface, but now they got out from nowhere and rushed towards the Daxi Army.
Immediately afterwards, Zhu Yousong asked He Xuanjiaohui, Yinghuimei and others to command an army of 10 to rush down the hillside. A total of 10,000+ troops were distributed in batches, overwhelming the Daxi army.
The 20 Great Western Army was miserable, and it was too late to escape. In a scuffle, casualties were everywhere, and blood flowed like rivers.
The battle lasted from morning to afternoon, and from afternoon until dark. First, the Great Western Army attacked the Ming army's camp, and then the Ming army chased and wiped out the Great Western Army, and chased them all the way to the city of Kuizhou.
These disintegrated Great Western Army fled into the city in embarrassment and closed the city gate.
At this time, the cannons on the top of the city rang out, and the cannons of the Daxi Army were powerful enough. Flames spewed out in the darkness, filling the air with gunpowder smoke, shaking the ground and shaking the mountains.
In order to reduce casualties, the Ming army temporarily stopped attacking.
At the time of the second watch, Li Zhushi's artillery battalion also began to roar. Hundreds of red cannons roared together, and shells roared on the city wall of Kuizhou, exploding inside the city.
The artillery fire in Kuizhou City was quickly suppressed. In the flickering and dimming of the fire, the Great Western Army at the head of the Kuizhou City will be beaten to pieces, some will fly into the air and fall to the top of the city, while the rest of the Great Western Army will flee in all directions. .
Is Kuizhou City so vulnerable?Li Zhushi could no longer fire artillery. Although he felt that it was not enjoyable yet, he could not waste the artillery shells. The firepower on the top of the city was suppressed and the city defenses were disrupted.
Therefore, Li Zhu stopped the shelling decisively, and then the Ming army siege soldiers who had been prepared for a long time set up ladders and began to attack the city.
