Go back to the end of the Ming Dynasty to be a soldier

Chapter 135 Dead Tartars, You Can't Run!
A cannon rang, and countless Ming soldiers appeared in front of the Tartars, forming a solid line of defense, cutting off their retreat, and a row of black muzzles aimed at them.

"Damn Tartars, you can't run away!"

These Eight Banners troops were running forward, and they were a little dumbfounded seeing this scene. There are still ambushes of the Ming army here?How could there be an ambush from the Ming army?

"Rush, rush over!" Duoduo had now woken up from his coma, and in the severe situation before him, he had no choice but to continue to mount the horse and carry the knife to direct the battle.

Although Doduo was seriously injured, he was very clear-headed, and a broken intestine would not be fatal. He persisted with superhuman perseverance.

He is very clear about the situation in front of him, not to mention losing the third charge, he has already failed in the battle to take Xifengkou.The attack was frustrated one after another, and the morale of his men and horses was low. The Ming army in the city took the opportunity to fight out, and the defeat was sealed.Now the way back was cut off by the Ming army again, and he was attacked by the enemy. This is the rhythm of his entire army being wiped out.

Not only his group of troops, but Prince Zheng's group of troops would be terrified if they couldn't take down Guancheng before dark. This move is powerful!
Up to now, Prince Yu Duoduo of the Qing Dynasty had to admit that he had met a master this time.

"Jin Yi!..." He had to re-examine such a name in his mind.

At this time, he remembered what his Majesty the King of Khan, Huang Taiji, reminded them when he came to the expedition, don't let him underestimate the enemy, don't let him underestimate the enemy, he still underestimated the enemy after all.

In a Guancheng with only a few thousand men and horses, the 6 horse soldiers were divided into two groups. In front of him, the 3 horse soldiers charged three times in a row, but he couldn't take it down.It is still so passive now, Duduo has never fought such a useless battle.

Facing the Ming army that appeared behind him, and the heavy red cannons, Doduo couldn't figure it out. Could it be that they fell from the sky?
Of course, Duoduo didn't expect that this was part of the battle plan agreed by Lin Yi and Liu Zhaoji in advance. Yesterday, Liu Zhaoji's 5000 troops pulled 50 red cannons. Only then did Duoli successfully bypass the eyeliner of the Tartars and appear in their rear.

Of course, the Eight Banners Army also had spies, but when the large army came, they had already figured out the situation within a hundred miles. Now they only focused on attacking forward, and only cared about the Ming army on the pass. They didn't expect that there would be another Ming army coming from behind. , Did they fly over?
If he couldn't figure it out, Doduo didn't think about it anymore.

The Prince Yu of the Qing Dynasty has only one mind now, and that is to break through the defense line of the Ming army in front of him. If Prince Zheng can win Guancheng, they still have hope of reversing this round.If they can't take it down, it's better for Prince Zheng and the others to retreat completely, and then they will join forces to preserve their strength before making plans.But if the defense line of the Ming army cannot be broken, they will fall into the quagmire of annihilation of the entire army, and then nothing can be discussed.

That's why Duduo cheered up, and the opponent's army will issue such an order.

This battle has been fought so far, Duoduo's 3 horses have lost 1/3, it can be said that his strength is still there, and his vitality is not damaged.

With Duoduo's order, the overwhelming Eight Banners army will rush to kill the ambushing Ming army.As for Lin Yi's troops who were holding on behind him, Duoduo left behind a group of troops and put heavy troops in front to break through the line of defense...

After more than ten hours of rapid march yesterday, Liu Zhaoji and the others were exhausted when they arrived here this morning.

If they are all cavalry or infantry, it is okay to advance lightly.The point is that these 50 red cannons are not easy to transport.

The reason for setting up ambushes here and deploying artillery is because in the era of cold weapons, the power and deterrent power of firearms cannot be underestimated.Cannon is the god of war, and Ji Dong and his army now have sufficient firearms and ammunition.

There are hundreds of muskets of various types, more than 100 cannons in red, and all kinds of bullets and explosives.There are two main sources of these things, one is from the batch of goods that robbed Shanxi merchant Fan's family, and the other is the spoils of the 10,000+ troops who defeated Huang Taiji.

A few months ago, Lin Yi led more than 1000 Guanning iron cavalry to make a long-distance raid on Huang Taiji's camp, and solved the crisis in the capital in one fell swoop.When Emperor Chongzhen was happy, he not only announced Lin Yi's innocence and meritorious service, but also granted him an official position, and gave Lin Yi's team all the spoils he got this time, including dozens of red cannons.

These red-clothed cannons were all made by the Tartars in imitation of the firearms of the Ming Dynasty, and their power was no less than that of the Ming army's red-clothed cannons.

Ji Dong got so many guns and ammunition, when would he not need to use them to fight Tartars?This thing cannot be put in the warehouse to wait for the painting to be seen.Besides, the enemy is outnumbered, so many guns are not used, isn't that a fool?

However, these generals of the Ming Dynasty were exhausted by this blow.

Each red cannon weighs more than 2000 catties, plus the heavy ammunition. These are all pulled by livestock. On average, they can only travel about ten miles an hour. When encountering rough roads, they have to be pushed by everyone.

Fortunately, Liu Zhaoji led a large number of troops, 5000, and they were familiar with the geography of this area. Before they set off, they sent hundreds of cavalry to repair the road along the way, otherwise they would really delay the matter.

Liu Zhaoji rushed here with his men, horses and luggage, and just after the cannon was mounted, Duduo and the others were defeated within two hours of rest.

At this moment, Liu Zhaoji's subordinates began to scold him.

"Fucking bastards, these tartars are really good-for-nothings, can't you just toss around for a while longer, let me have a good rest, I'm almost exhausted!"

"These sons of bitches, this is a death call. Since they are eager to die and be cannon fodder, then we will fulfill them!"

It’s no wonder that these Ming soldiers scolded their mothers. After running such a long distance and exerting so much effort, from yesterday afternoon to now, they couldn’t eat well or sleep well. They finally arrived at the place. After they settled down, they even forgot Shit and piss, fell asleep on the ground when they were tired, and started fighting again before closing their eyes. At this time, they could only vent their anger on the Tartars.

The artillery team of the Ming army was ready to curse and curse.

At Liu Zhaoji's order, the 50 red-clothed cannons fired at once.

The cannons rang out, and the earth shook.

Amidst the deafening explosions, the Eight Banners soldiers fell down in rows and in pieces, thick smoke billowed, fireballs flickered and extinguished, like magic eyes flashing, devouring the typing life.

The Tartars were panicked now, and their morale was scattered. Don't forget that there was no fortified city or ravine ahead, just a small hill a few feet high.This row of red cannons alone made them daunting and insurmountable.

The roar of cannons continues, and life is stagnant here.The Tartars stopped rushing forward, but ran for their lives separately, in all directions, all over the mountains and plains, and there were people running in any direction.

After the first round of cannons rang out, Liu Zhaoji saw that 50 shells had blown the Tartars into a dizzy state. Not far ahead, he had already seen Lin Yi's men rushing to kill them. More than 4000 people rushed out.

Duoduo, the 2 remnants of the defeated general, was attacked by Lin Yi and Liu Zhaoji, the more than 6000 Ming army. First, there was shelling and then a scuffle. After more than an hour of fierce fighting, in the evening, the Tartars were compressed in the In the encirclement circle, not a single soldier rushed out, the encirclement circle became smaller and smaller, and finally only one man and one cavalry remained.

This was Duoduo, Prince Yu of the Qing Dynasty. At this time, he was still extremely brave. He cut down more than a dozen soldiers of the Ming army in a row. Only then did he know that he was the only commander left in the encirclement.

At this time, Duoduo on the horse looked like a monster, covered in blood, staring at the soldiers of the Ming army who were staring at all around, panting heavily.

Duoduo knew that today was over, but he still didn't intend to throw the knife and catch him without a fight. The only hope was that a miracle would happen, that is, Prince Zheng Jierhalang could bring troops to rescue him, otherwise he would die without a place to bury him.Since ancient times, the word surrender has never been in his mind.Now he just kills one to make enough money, and kills two to earn one.

Seeing that Doduo is still so arrogant, the two peasant warriors couldn't bear it. The short and fat Gan Bao carried an iron pole on his shoulders, and the tall and mighty Jiang Xingyuan carried a big shovel in his hand. Lesson Duoduo.

"Stand back and hand him over to me!" Ji Dong said as he stepped into the circle.
