This is an attack from the Rocket Army!
Although it is not a strategic rocket force, and it does not have the legendary super invincible killer weapon, it is certainly far inferior to the Katyusha rocket launcher, and even inferior to the artificial rain-enhancing rocket, but the "sugar medicine rocket" they are currently using is better than the Katyusha rocket launcher. Looking back at the history, the Congreve rocket copied by the British from India was still much stronger. And there is still a lot of room for improvement!
"Sugar powder" is the most commonly used propellant among amateur rocket players. Not only does its combustion performance far exceed that of black powder, but it also has excellent shaping properties after adding gum. Therefore it can provide more stable and powerful thrust.
This means that the "sugar-powder rocket" not only hits farther and more accurately, but can also carry a larger warhead.
Of course, although the "Sugar Rocket" is much more powerful than the Congreve Rocket, it is still not a very mature product. The main problem is that Zhu Heji has not yet finished the thunder and acid gong, so he cannot get the trigger fuse. The only way to control the time of explosion is by adjusting the length of the lead... This is very unreliable.
Although there is no triggering fuse, and the explosion depends on the character, this "sugar medicine rocket" is still very valuable on the battlefield.
At least it can scare people!
The scene when a dozen "whistle-blowing" rockets, making harsh sounds and trailing frightening tail flames, flew over the heads of the demons and rushed towards the Eight Banners Heavenly Soldiers behind them, was really scary. Scary!
The two sides fighting on the battlefield even paused the fighting for a while, and they all looked up at the "sugar medicine rockets" whizzing past in the sky.
When they saw these rockets flying behind the Qing army's front line and then exploding into brilliant bursts of fire, all the Ming troops on the battlefield cheered involuntarily: "Win! Win! The Ming Dynasty is victorious, long live the saint!"
The Qing troops on the battlefield were all frightened. Most of them had seen the rocket last night. However, the rockets launched last night did not emit such a piercing scream, their number was not that large, and their hits were not very accurate...
The rockets passing over the heads of the Qing army seemed to be heading towards the handsome flag in the center of Tuhaitu!
Can Tu Zhongtang and his Eight Banners soldiers withstand it?
"Long live the saint! Kill the demons and restore the Ming Dynasty...kill them!"
Before the Qing soldiers recovered from the shock, some Ming troops on the battlefield suddenly became excited!
The reason that makes them boil is not in the sky, but on the earth! I saw more than a hundred knights on tall war horses, surrounded by a large flag with black characters and a red background that said "The world is for the common good", speeding past behind these boiling Ming troops. Under the banner, there is a tall knight with a silver helmet, red armor and a long beard. He is none other than the Ming Dynasty's Zhongshu Ling, the Commander of the Imperial Army in Jinyi, the former Confucian scholar, and the crown prince of Prince Ding, Zhu Heji!
Now Zhu Heji is a "saint"... At least the officers and soldiers of the Jinyi People's Army have a superstition about him, so wherever he appears, the Jinyi People's Army soldiers will automatically enter a violent state.
The first to enter a violent state was the left wing of the Ming army - this was the main direction of the Ming army's attack, and theoretically the weakest point of the Qing army.
The people responsible for this area are Shang Zhijie's Pingnan Prince's Mansion Banner Army and Yan Ziming's Guangdong Green Camp Army. They had been fighting hard since early this morning, and the position of the Eight Banners Fire and Thunder Army that had just exploded was also behind them, and the grenade assault of the 500 death warriors led by Ling Zongjun also hit them!
When Zhu Heji's "The World is for the Public" flag appeared, they had been beaten back steadily, and the fighting fronts were pressed against Shang Zhijie and Yan Ziming. The Shangjia Banner Army and the Guangdong Green Camp Army finally couldn't stand it any longer. .....
Most of the Goshihars under Rao Shishang Zhijie and Yan Ziming have been sent out to form a line in front of the "Flag Gate" where they are stationed. Everyone has their swords unsheathed and cuts down those who push them down, but they can't stop them. The defeated soldiers completely collapsed.
In fact, before the Qing troops in Guangdong collapsed, they were exhausted and suffered heavy losses, and they were truly unsustainable.
They have really tried their best to reach this point, and they are worthy of the Shang family's grace for so many years!
Of course, as the vassal king guarding Guangdong, Shang Kexi still took great care of his opponents' banner troops and green camp soldiers. Military pay, rewards, land, women, everything that should be given has been given... Shang Kexi has already offended the Cantonese people to death. Of course there are millions of enemies outside the palace, and the soldiers who protect the family must be well taken care of!
Therefore, these Guangdong Qingyao who were protected by their old masters are definitely not the same thing as the Green Camp soldiers who later became unloved, unloved, and barely had enough to eat.
Today, they witnessed the beheading of their old master Shang Kexi, who was closer than their biological father. They also saw their new master Shang Zhidian and the second prince Shang Zhixiao, who had always won the hearts of the army, being killed by "human head bombs". They were really red-eyed.
But even if we try our best in red eyes, we are now facing a defeat like a landslide...
Shang Zhijie did not die under the banner of "Shang Zhijie died here", but before the Ming army came to kill him, he was picked up by his Goshiha and ran away. Behind them, there were several The Qing Yao officer who was loyal to the Shang family risked his life to stop the furious Ming army and cover Shang Zhijie's escape.
As for Yan Ziming, he had already mounted his war horse and disappeared somewhere.
Shang Zhijie and his Qingyao men are not completely desperate. They have one last hope...the six hundred and eight banners of heavenly soldiers led by Tu Hai himself!
So they didn't run around like headless flies, but ran in the direction of Tuhai Shuaiqi. Before they ran very far, a piercing scream sounded above their heads!
When Shang Zhijie looked up, he saw smoke rising in the sky. A dozen or so unknown objects were dragging scary smoke pillars. They also let out strange screams and rushed towards the Eight Banners Soldiers' position in front... This What is it!
While he was thinking about it, he saw several of the flying "monsters" suddenly explode in the air. After a few "booms", they turned into extremely gorgeous flames, covering all the Eight Banners soldiers below. !
This is too scary...
The terrible things are not over yet!
There were about a dozen "monsters" that didn't explode, and they just hit the heavenly soldiers on their heads!
"Boom boom boom..."
There were another seven or eight loud noises that shook the earth and the mountains!
Shang Zhijie saw clouds of smoke suddenly rising from the position where the Eight Banners soldiers were gathering in front, shooting straight into the sky in different postures. Thick smoke filled the position and soon enveloped everything.
"Where are the Eight Banners Heavenly Soldiers? Are they okay?"
Just when Shang Zhijie thought of the Eight Banners Soldiers, he suddenly heard the sound of horse hooves, and then saw dozens of heavenly soldiers riding war horses rushing out of the smoke. As they rushed back, they shouted in Manchurian: "Eniang! Eniang... ....”
"E Niang?" Shang Zhijie was a little confused when he heard this, "Why did the Manchurian soldiers call 'E Niang' when they charged? Besides...why didn't they have any weapons in their hands? And there was no formation. , rushed out in a chaotic manner, looking like he was running away?"
The dozens of Eight Banners soldiers "charging" didn't seem to see Shang Zhijie and the other defeated soldiers. They flew directly through them. A few unlucky ones couldn't dodge and were knocked over by them!
But no one dared to say anything... Those were heavenly soldiers!
And everyone also has hopes for the combat effectiveness of the heavenly soldiers. Although it is strange to charge with bare hands, maybe the heavenly soldiers can defeat the rebels with their fists?
Thinking of this, everyone stopped and looked back hopefully... only to see those whom they regarded as heavenly soldiers, actually rushed towards the Ming army chasing Shang Zhijie and the others. infantry. The infantrymen of the Ming Army reacted very quickly and immediately formed a group and raised their spears to meet the enemy. One of them also threw out a grenade hammer and landed in front of several heavenly soldiers. These heavenly soldiers did not pay attention and continued to move forward. As a coincidence, they passed by the grenade hammer on horseback. , the hammer exploded with a bang, blowing up those heavenly soldiers on the spot!
Only then did the remaining heavenly soldiers realize that something was wrong, and they reined in their horses one after another, trying to turn around and escape... But before they could turn around, dozens of muskets had already stretched out from the massed Ming army's spear array. , aiming at the Manchurian Heavenly Soldiers who were beating their horses to turn around, and struck. After a burst of gunfire, a dozen heavenly soldiers were shot down. The remaining heavenly soldiers all cried out, "Oh my God...", fled away, and got into the smoke again.
Shang Zhijie and the others were dumbfounded when they saw this scene!
Is this a heavenly soldier? Are these the invincible Manchurian soldiers?
