This kind of defeat was something Jueluo Baishan had never seen since he led his troops into the pass.
In the past, dog barbarians were killed and their armies were defeated and fled in all directions. I didn't expect that the King of Qing Dynasty would also end up in such a situation.
There is a flying monster overhead like Mount Tai, and an invulnerable armored monster opposite.
Is it possible that these two things were both made by Prince Manminggou?
Then this thief will definitely become a powerful enemy of the Qing Dynasty in the future!
Jueluo Baishan speculated, resented, and ran away.
But at this moment, it is completely useless to be angry. If you run slowly, you will be caught up and killed by the barbarian.
He was not afraid of death, but dying in battle like this was a bit too cowardly.
Melezhangjing, who was carrying a majestic yellow flag, failed to win a single battle after entering the city. Instead, he defeated a Jia La army to only a hundred people.
What I did was really unworthy of the Emperor...
Fuchengmen Street was littered with the corpses of armored soldiers wearing yellow and red armor. It was almost impossible to save the lives of living people at this moment, and no one could bother to collect the corpses from these people.
Although only twenty-four airships were dispatched, carrying only 240 bombs in total, the psychological pressure caused to the Qing army was equivalent to being attacked by 2,000 mortar shells.
Because nothing can make people feel more desperate than watching this so-called "flying monster" throw explosive objects from above their heads.
You can only watch, unable to stop it. Even if you have skills, they are of no use at this time. Seeing yourself being blown up by the "egg" laid by the airship is undoubtedly the most tragic thing.
As for resisting the counterattack of the barbarians in the city, this matter has long been forgotten by the armored soldiers of the Han army. It is extremely difficult to save their lives without being blown to death.
Attacking the city from outside the city, the dog barbarian had countless fire oil, and finally entered the city through the underground cave, and encountered such a strange thing.
Is it possible that this is God’s will?
It would make no sense if the airship could soar across the sky if it were not for the will of God.
If the Qing Dynasty did not follow the will of God, why did it not create similar objects?
Even if they are not created, they can still destroy these flying monsters, right?
Nowadays, they don't even have the ability to destroy. They just run aimlessly and fire a few arrows at targets in the sky from time to time.
How can this have any effect?
Completely letting the barbarian opposite see his own joke!
Jueluo Baishan has automatically assigned half of the responsibility for the defeat of Ma Shiqiao to Jueluo Bahana. However, the latter is not idle at all. He is directing the warriors of the Zhenglan Banner to block the hole.
As the Ming army retreated from the area west of Caohe, the troops from the Zhenghui Banner and the Han Army's White and Blue Banners, who were active in Guangpingku and Zhumuchang areas after fighting in the middle of the night, finally merged with the Zhenglan Banner in the south.
As a result, the Qing Dynasty almost controlled nearly one-sixth of the inner city. Although the depth was very narrow and was not conducive to defense, it could continue to advance eastward after dawn.
However, the Ming army's active counterattack disrupted this plan. From Xizhimen Street to Fuchengmen Street, the Ming army used fifteen bridges as attack channels and marched westward.
Although there are only 1,800 troops invested in each channel, they are equipped with no less than ten tanks. The nearby airships can not only drop bombs and bombs, but also provide reconnaissance intelligence to ground troops through semaphores.
The Qing army only provided a small amount of Xiaoflangji, Tiger Crouching Cannon and Baizigun to the troops in the city through underground caves, but they were completely inferior in terms of firepower.
Even if they were lucky enough to destroy a few tanks that underestimated the enemy, once other crew members discovered the exposed gun emplacements of the Qing army and implemented fire suppression, the artillery and gunners who were too late to move would have to be wiped out on the spot.
As for the Qing army, both the Eight Banners soldiers and the Han army were very afraid of the brutal armored monsters, especially at a distance of a hundred paces. Not to mention bows and arrows, even the Crouching Tiger Cannon might not be able to penetrate the target.
Only the small Folang machine that fires solid bullets can destroy this object, but there are too few small Folang machines brought into the city, which is far from meeting the Qing army's need to block the attack.
In particular, both sides use small Folang aircraft for rapid exchange of fire. When the performance of artillery is almost the same, the side with more equipment will naturally have an absolute advantage.
In addition, the Ming army also carried a lot of mortars at the rear of the advancing team, which could provide direct fire support. This allowed Qing soldiers to be shelled even if they were hiding in the ruins.
Even if the tank was not seen, or the tank was aimed at the tank without waiting to fire, the gun position was attacked by mortars, and many gunners who were killed as a result died with their eyes open.
In street fighting, indirect fire weapons and direct-aimed weapons have different effects, but there is no doubt that if it is a sneak attack and fire, the mortar is an excellent weapon to kill the enemy.
Many times, the Qing soldiers could not see the Ming army's artillery at all, and would hear the sound of "boom, boom, boom" coming from a distance, and then their location would instantly turn into a sea of fire.
In terms of combat effectiveness, the gray flag, which is composed of garrison soldiers from each city, is far inferior to the yellow flag and blue flag, which are all soldiers.
In this current situation, not even the latter two can withstand it, let alone the newly formed Zhenghui Banner.
The Zhenghui Banner that entered the city consisted of two Jia La. After the night battle and the morning bombardment, there were still more than 2,000 troops left.
These armored soldiers are very good in field battles and can kill thousands of birds and beasts in western Liaoning.
Fighting in the streets of the capital, facing a combination of "flying monsters" above and "iron-armored monsters" below, there is nothing you can do.
The most critical problem is that there is no way to hit the "iron-armored monster" that is pushed over!
Shooting an arrow is equivalent to scratching the surface of a problem, and the arrow cannot even penetrate the "monster's" skin.
If the opponent fires a cannon, a dozen armored soldiers on Zhenghui Banner's side will be knocked down.
Even if they were not afraid of the loss of troops, they rushed forward in front of the dog barbarian.
The opponent can also throw hundreds of exploding mallets, and still knock down a large number of armored soldiers.
Finally, there was a chance for a close encounter, but the armored soldiers of the Qing army discovered that Gou Manzi's armor was thicker than what he wore.
The head and torso were completely protected. Cutting with a waist knife would leave a mark, while shooting with an arrow would only leave a dent.
The way the dog barbarians attack is very simple, that is, tie a dagger to the head of the gun and stab them randomly.
It seems simple, but it requires all your strength, the inertia is huge, and it is difficult to organize.
If the opponent stabbed him into the armor, he would get a bloody hole.
What's more, if they can rush to the dog barbarian, the number of Qing troops is far less than that of the opponent.
Several Ming soldiers besieged an armored soldier, and the Qing soldiers were attacked from both sides, and then stabbed to death.
Just in the battle to guard various bridges, Zhenghui Banner lost no less than three Niulu armored soldiers.
After gaining experience and lessons gained with blood, I realized that the "iron-armored monster" on the opposite side could not be resisted by humans.
This object is invulnerable. It can hit you, but you won't be able to hurt it at all.
Dozens of armored soldiers may be able to kill one monster, but a single cow can only destroy ten monsters.
Each Ming army was equipped with more than ten monsters. Even if there were a lot of Eight Banners armored soldiers entering the city, they could not withstand this almost crazy consumption.
It was very simple for the East Palace Guards and other departments to receive orders, that is, to attack separately. The ultimate goal was to get close to the west city wall and eliminate all the dog Tatars who entered the city through the underground holes near the trench.
The tactics used in the battle are also very simple, that is, "flat push"!
In the field battle, how to beat the king's master with pigtails.
Nowadays, Master Wang just braids his hair.
Each troop is equipped with a large number of tanks. Although they are driven by manpower, their firepower and defense have not been weakened at all.
If the braid cannot defeat the tank, then it cannot defeat the infantry brigade with the tank as the core of offense and defense. In theory, it is impossible to reverse the situation of the war as soon as possible.
The Qing army operating in the area south of Guangpingku and north of Chaotian Palace has more than a thousand people under the gray banner, and no less than 4,000 Han soldiers under the white and blue banners, with a total strength of more than 5,000.
However, the Ming army, which had launched a full-scale counterattack, was divided into more than a dozen non-connected sections like tofu, waiting to be surrounded separately and then eaten by the opponent.
"You bastard! Stand up for me, general!"
Zhenma Guangyuan of Gushan'e of Zhengbai Banner and Zhenbayan of Gushan'e of Zhenglan Banner have already entered the city overnight. Seeing that the city is about to be destroyed, they must share a share of such great achievements.
The ideas of other generals were very similar to theirs, but after dawn, the battle situation changed fundamentally and began to tilt towards Man Ming.
Facing the defeated troops, Ma Guangyuan was so angry that his veins were popping. He allowed him to curse and even killed three defeated troops in a row, but it didn't help.
Man Ming's offensive was too fierce. If he stayed in the front, he would die. He would either be bombarded by cannons or blown up by clubs. No matter how brave the armored soldiers were, they still wanted to live to enjoy life after the war.
No one would be willing to die tragically at the hands of a barbarian, so they might as well retreat temporarily, run to a suitable place, and then organize their troops to fight back.
But the running became a rout, and no one thought about counterattack anymore. The only thought in his mind is to run faster than his companions in order to save his life.
Guangpingku near Xizhimen Street has been completely lost. The main reason is that a large number of armored monsters appeared on Xizhimen Street, followed by thousands of barbarian cavalry.
The armored monster fired first, and then the barbarian cavalry armed with long swords rode southward. The Qing army had no horses at all, let alone dug a horse pit. How could they resist?
This Ming army set out from Xinjiekou. Under fierce shelling, they quickly repelled the Qing army along Xizhimen Street, killing and wounding hundreds of people, and opened up contact with the Xizhimen defenders.
Then, with tanks as the vanguard and cavalry as cover, they quickly advanced southward and cooperated with the brother troops attacking from the east bank of the Cao River to the west, striving to annihilate the Dog Tatars in a pincer-like manner.
"Fuck me!"
Zheng Chenggong, who was just starting out, led his troops to fight in Xizhimen. All the soldiers and horses were direct descendants of Zheng Zhilong. After training in the Donggong Guard Base, they have now become extremely good at fighting.
"Follow the prince and kill the Tartars!"
Gan Hui is responsible for protecting the safety of this extremely special little brother. He even wants to kill several dog Tatars with his own hands to repay the prince for his kindness.
"Come on!"
Under the command of Zheng Chenggong, thousands of former pirates and now officers and soldiers of the Zheng family stormed south to attack the Qing armored soldiers who were not ready to kneel down and beg for surrender.
This was also thanks to the generosity of a certain prince. A dog-Tatar armored soldier was worth two hundred taels of silver. This price was even more generous than the wealthy Zhenhai Bo Zheng Zhilong.
Although the Zheng family army has always dominated the sea, the thousand men sent to the capital by Zheng Zhilong are all elite land soldiers, not ordinary sailors.
The same is true for the hundreds of people left behind by Zheng Zhiwan. After being equipped with war horses, well-made muskets and extremely thick iron armor, this vassal-like army also exerted a strong combat power.
Although the helmet and body armor were extremely heavy, because Zheng Chenggong wanted to be loyal to the emperor and serve the country, he did not feel hindered at all. Instead, with the protection of the armor, it was difficult for Donglu's cold arrows to succeed.
The Ming Dynasty was not at the end of its rope, nor was it imminent.
The prince has sent an airship, so victory is certain.
After Zheng Chenggong, Zheng Shengying, Gan Hui and other Zheng Jiajun officers saw the airship appearing in the sky, the morale of the entire army was immediately boosted.
They fought with nearly a thousand dog Tatars who were stubbornly resisting north of Guangpingku. Due to their strong morale and determination, and because they were fresh troops entering the battlefield, their physical strength and energy were not exhausted.
It only took Zheng's army half an hour to defeat the Qing army who occupied this area, leaving more than 400 corpses behind, and the remaining troops quickly fled south.
This can be regarded as a good start for the Zheng Jiajun, annihilating more than one enemy soldier, which also made thousands of officers and soldiers more motivated and eager to make contributions.
After the Ming Army cavalry defeated the Dog Tartar armored soldiers, they immediately followed and killed them. On the route of the main force of the Ming Army going south, the bodies of Dog Tartars could be seen everywhere on the roadside.
Zheng Chenggong had just tasted the powerful power of the "infantry-tank coordination" tactic. He wanted to increase the speed of his attack and quickly defeat or even annihilate the enemy troops, so that the nearby Donglu would not even have the thought to resist.
But I remembered His Highness the Prince's instructions and had to give up my previous thoughts and let my soldiers search carefully to avoid anything slipping through the net.
These soldiers are all elite soldiers who have followed his father in the war for many years. Zheng Chenggong does not want to lose all of them because of the service. As long as he can win, he still wants to retain as many as possible.
When Fujian is brought back later, one will be as good as ten super elites, and everyone can become a squad leader or even a platoon leader. With a thousand people, an elite army with a scale of tens of thousands or even tens of thousands can be established.
This was also his father's intention. In the future, Zheng Chenggong would have to rely on this extraordinary force when leading troops in battles. Therefore, he was cautious when using troops and did not get carried away because of his victory in the first battle.
Regarding this battle, a certain prince had six words of instructions - if you don't want to be fast, you must be steady!
As long as Master Wang moves steadily, gradually compresses Donglu's space for movement, and eliminates them before sunset.
Wangshi has absolute firepower superiority, and now also has air superiority. It has all-round advantages over Donglu in terms of morale, psychology, and supply.
In this case, Donglu will definitely not be able to make a comeback unless there are major mistakes on his side.
In the duel between masters, it depends on who makes no mistakes or who makes the first mistake!
The side that makes fewer mistakes is most likely to win the final victory.
A certain prince believed that the current tactics adopted by the king were wise and correct. No matter how hard Donglu struggled, it would not help.
The encirclement is like a noose around Donglu's neck. It will tighten little by little and eventually strangle him to death!
It is estimated that Huang Taiji does not want to see this process and results, but this is exactly the original intention of a certain prince.
It's best to let Huang Taiji know what's happening in the city. He's anxious and angry but can't help.
He watched helplessly as the tens of thousands of thugs he sent into the city were eliminated by his own "air-land battle"!
