As soon as the grenade appeared, Mang Gurtai, Khan Ahai, Buyan Ahai, as well as Taiji and Tabu Nang who were observing the battlefield on the high ground were so shocked that they almost jumped up.
What is this? Firearms appear on the battlefield, but only the muzzle and muzzle of the weapon have flames spurting out.
The projectiles fired are all solid and large, even shotguns. It's just that there are more small projectiles.
And now there are projectiles that can explode.
This kind of weapon is subversive and has never been seen on the battlefield.
"Sir, what kind of weapon is this?" Mang Gurtai stood up from his chair and asked Li Yongfang.
Li Yongfang is in charge of the intelligence agency Xitangzi. He knows a lot about the Ming Dynasty. Nurhaci's rapid rise is absolutely inseparable from Li Yongfang's help.
Many cities in Liaodong were conquered only after many traitors were sneaked in and then suddenly rushed out to seize the city gates when the fighting was fierce.
These people who lurked in and pretended to be fleeing people were the fifteen thousand Han troops under Li Yongfang's name.
The fifteen thousand Han troops who followed this time were those under the command of Li Yongfang. As Han people, they committed numerous crimes against the Han people in Liaodong.
Li Yongfang rolled his eyes. He had never seen such a flying bomb. I don’t know how to agree with Sanbeile, but Sanbeile has a short temper. Apparently saying he didn't know would anger Sanbeile.
Now, the prospects for the old Khan King are not good, and the five ministers have all stepped aside. Now is the era when the four Baylors sit side by side and govern. San Baylor is one of the four major Baylors, so they cannot be disobedient.
Moreover, he married the daughter of Qibele Abate, who was considered his uncle's father-in-law and had a much higher status than him, even though Mang Gurtai was about the same age as his son. He must also answer respectfully.
"Well, this thing seems to be similar to the Japanese baked jade. It is a kind of gunpowder that can be thrown out after being ignited."
Li Yongfang's intelligence chief is indeed not a cover-up, and he is indeed well-informed.
Because China is a small country, Japan came into contact with firearms earlier than many other countries. Far more than Arabia and Western Europe.
In the Battle of Wenyong in 1274, the Japanese experienced the Song and Jin style handguns and thunder cones (iron cones) for the first time during the battle with the invading Yuan army.
Fire blunderbuss is far more penetrating than bows, and thunder can blast enemies within a few meters into pieces.
Especially the ignited and thrown explosives like Zhentian Lei.
It shocked the Japanese people greatly.
After the battle, Japanese craftsmen quickly began the work of imitating these advanced weapons.
By the time of the Wanli War to Aid Korea. They have invented metal shells tied in series with their unique national rope art culture, and thrown explosives-baked jade.
Li Yongfang touched his chin and said: "I just don't know why they can throw it so far. It seems that gunpowder is spraying behind the trail. I don't know how they can achieve such a long throwing distance."
"Sir, is there any way to deal with this kind of thing?" Mang Gurtai asked.
"Not yet. If we can get one or two that didn't explode, we can study the principle." Li Yongfang shook his head.
He just wanted to deal with Mang Gurtai. Is there any good solution there?
At this time, as the barrage gradually extended outwards, the explosion gradually advanced outwards. The Mongols have completely collapsed, and they are all turning around and running back. Their livers and gallbladders are broken.
The steel plate on the north wall suddenly turned up. Where it used to be the wall, now only two layers of steel pipe skeletons were visible.
A large number of soldiers, wearing dark gray plate armor and holding Swiss halberds more than three meters long, walked through the gaps between the steel pipes and walked in formation.
Rows of silver-grey phalanxes look like they are coming out of countless open doors. The space of four to five meters between every two sidecars was turned into gates by flipping up tile steel plates.
At this time, each gate had a squadron of infantry phalanx coming out of the gate.
After the phalanx came out, the steel plate was lowered again, and the soldiers behind used wire to temporarily hang it up.
Each hundred of them formed a square formation, and everyone's steps were uniform. The steps rise and fall at the same time. Make a loud noise.
As they marched, it seemed as if the earth was shaking.
There was a dense sound of war drums behind the city wall. Dozens of strong men, shirtless, picked up huge drumsticks with both hands and beat the war drums vigorously. The sound of a huge drum shook the open grassland and spread for several miles.
Mang Gurtai watched in surprise as more than a hundred phalanx formations surged towards the north city, like a rainbow.
"How dare these Han people fight back," he murmured.
From the time he started the army with his father Khan until now, he is forty years old this year. This is the first time he has seen Han infantry actually dare to charge towards the Mongols.
Even during the bloody battle at the Hun River under Shenyang City, the Han people were the best at defeating the Qi Army. They only used their chariots and camps to line up on three sides of the Hun River immediately after encountering the Eight Banners and passively defended.
Just like what Yang Fan is doing now.
Yang Fan's combat mode was the main mode for infantry to deal with cavalry during the Ming Dynasty for more than 200 years. Mang Gurtai didn't feel anything was wrong at all.
However, now the Ming army's infantry rushed out.
Mang Gurtai had an unreal feeling.
Under more than a dozen rounds of gunpowder-propelled grenades, the front of the heavily Mongolian troop group was in a miserable state.
There was basically no encounter with the infantry phalanx, and they were pushed past any decent resistance.
Although the Mongols were retreating, these infantrymen still maintained their formation, taking their time and keeping the order of the phalanx.
As the whistles sounded one after another, under the orders of the officers, the Ming infantry began to trot, but the queue was still very neat, which showed that they often ran in formation.
Mang Gurtai's eyes jumped when he saw it. He was a high-level cavalry general. He knew clearly that it was much more important to slow down the horses and maintain formation than to rush forward quickly.
The same goes for infantry. An army that strictly maintains collective uniformity is a terrible army.
"These are the elite soldiers of the Ming Dynasty!" he murmured.
He seemed to have returned to the Hunhe battlefield and saw the Baigan soldiers and the Qi army again.
At that time, the two troops were also well-trained and acted in a uniform manner.
Although there is no fast running, the advance of these infantry is not slow.
Many injured Mongolians who fell to the ground were directly stabbed to death with Swiss halberds. Some of the injured and slow runners were stabbed to death from behind.
Many Mongolians were overtaken and stabbed to death in the back.
