Du Du looked hesitant.
He wanted to retreat, but when he saw the tiger-shaped flag in the distance, he wanted to kill the commander, seize the flag, and defeat the tiger-shaped flag in front of him.
"Don't hesitate, I think the Great Khan here will definitely support us in doing this." Dorgon looked at Du Du and said.
He needs the power of Dudu and the white flag.
Du Du's expression changed several times, and finally he gritted his teeth and said, "It's up to you, let's do it."
During the rise of the slave thieves, most of the battles were gambling. He was not willing to give up on the opportunity to defeat the Tiger Flag army.
"You will definitely not regret today's decision." Dorgon laughed when he saw Du Du agreeing to join him in capturing the flag with the tiger character flag.
Du Du said: "Tell me, what should we do next? The tiger thieves have so many cannons. If you want to kill the commander and seize the flag, you must avoid the tiger thieves' artillery fire."
"Don't worry about this, I have thought about it a long time ago." Dorgon said, "These Mongolian soldiers have shortened the distance between them and the tiger thieves' defense line. The remaining distance is not far, so the Han soldiers can stand up In front, two white flags follow the Han soldiers. As long as they get close, let the archers shoot arrows at the tiger thieves' gunners. As long as they can buy time to charge, they can break through the tiger thieves' artillery formation and penetrate the tiger thieves' defense line."
Du Du clenched his fist vigorously and asked, "Are you sure?"
"I'm pretty sure, but I don't know how many people are protecting the tiger thief leader. But it doesn't matter. As long as there is no threat from cannons, close combat is our strength." Dorgon said.
Dudu nodded.
Fighting at close quarters, these Eight Banners soldiers have never been afraid of Ming people.
"Let's take action. While the Mongolian soldiers can still attract the attention of the tiger thieves, let's try to get as close to the tiger thieves' defense line as possible," Dorgon said.
The order was quickly conveyed to the staff leader and left leader below.
All the Han soldiers who followed the two white flags were sent to the front to lead the charge.
The generals among the Han soldiers naturally understood that they were to be used as cannon fodder, but they had no choice. No matter how reluctant they were, they could only walk in front and block the swords of the Jurchen soldiers.
There were fewer and fewer Mongolian cavalry blocking the front, and the two white flags and the Han soldiers in front appeared in the sight of the frontline commander of the Tiger Flag.
The artillery team began to stop chasing the fleeing Mongolian soldiers, and instead began to shell the two white flags approaching.
At the same time, the Zhenglan Banner and Xianglan Banner on both wings launched an attack on the Tiger-Character Flag line almost simultaneously, blooming in several places on the Tiger-Character Flag defense line.
In this way, the pressure on Dorgon was greatly reduced.
However, the Han soldiers in front of the two white flags still suffered heavy casualties, and they faced most of the pressure.
However, no matter how many Han soldiers were killed or injured, Dorgon would not feel distressed.
As long as you can kill the commander and capture the flag successfully, the death of many Han soldiers will be worthwhile. Once the Tiger-Character Banner is defeated, the soldiers and horses of the Tiger-Character Flag can also be used to supplement the strength of the Han soldiers under his command.
Although the cannon is powerful, it is not as fast as the reloading speed of the gun.
First there was a charge by the Mongolian cavalry, and then there was a second wave of charge by the Han soldiers. When more than half of the Han soldiers were killed or injured, Dorgon appeared with two white flags about a hundred steps away from the Tiger Flag's defense line.
Although this distance is not enough to bring out the power of the archers, as long as they move forward a few dozen steps, the archers can begin to attack the defense line of the Tiger Flag.
In order to smooth out the distance of dozens of steps, Dorgon sent a group of flag soldiers with the Zhengbai flag to force the remaining Han soldiers to continue approaching the defense line of the Tiger Flag.
After paying the casualties of some Han soldiers and real slave soldiers, they finally advanced dozens of steps towards the Tiger Flag defense line.
Dorgon felt relieved.
The little distance left was enough for him to kill with two white flags.
If the leader of the two white flags was Hauge, he might have taken the lead in attacking the defense line of the Tiger Flag.
But Dorgon, who is a few years younger than Hauge, is much more stable.
Dorgon knew that he was still young and had not fully developed his strength, so he left the matter of charging into battle to the subordinate Zuoling.
And he was protected by the white-armored soldiers of Zhengbai Banner.
In the middle, that is, Bai Jia Baya La, each one is an elite member of the flag soldiers.
Du Du, as the leader of the small flag with a white flag and the deputy commander of the flag with a white flag, also did not charge forward. Like Dorgon's choice, he let the subordinates and the left leader lead Bagala to kill the tiger flag. Line of defense.
All they had to do was open a gap in the defense line of the tiger-character flag, and their success in defeating the commander and seizing the flag would be half the battle.
Dorgon and Du Du are both waiting for their men with the two white flags to rush into the Tiger Flag defense line. As long as a gap is opened, they will lead more people with the Two White Flags to follow the gap and attack the generals behind the Tiger Flag defense line. .
boom! boom! boom!
Just as Bai Jia Ba Ya La appeared in front of the car formation of the Tiger Flag, countless firecrackers were fired immediately.
The crackling of countless gunfire covered up various noises, and along with the smoke left after the medicine was burned, the white-armored and red-armored dogs lay down.
These bagaras all wore at least two layers of armor, and even the white-armored bagaras each wore three layers of armor.
It is difficult for ordinary swords to cut through the layers of armor and stomach on the body, and the vital parts of the body are tightly protected. However, no matter how thick the armor and stomach are, they are as thin as paper in front of the fire blunderbuss. Destroy.
The only two ways to avoid being hurt by muskets are to stay far away and to miss the target.
It was because of these two shortcomings that the gunmen of the Ming Army's firearms battalion found it difficult to exert the power of their guns in front of slave thieves.
The Tiger Character Banner deployed tens of thousands of troops in this area, including a combat division and a dragoon division.
Although the position where the two white flags attacked was only a certain part of the defense line, there were still a lot of soldiers guarding it, and there was a car formation in front of them, which effectively blocked the threat of archers from the slave and bandit side.
At the same time, because the fire blunderbuss is a long-range attack method, a large number can make up for the lack of accuracy.
Bagala, who was rushing in front, didn't even have a chance to take action, so he was shot and killed by nearly a third of the tiger-character flag gunners behind the car formation.
And this was just the beginning. Before the remaining Bagara could recover, another round of firecrackers was heard behind the car formation.
In front of slaves and thieves, the soldiers of the Ming army who held fire guns always finished shooting the fire guns in their hands, turned around and ran back. No one thought about loading and firing a second time.
Even if there were a few Ming troops who wanted to do this, they could only give up the idea among the Ming troops who were fleeing.
To reach the level of three-stage shooting, in addition to long-term training, you also need strict military discipline.
There is no shortage of soldiers for these Tiger Flags.
Therefore, when Bagala among the slaves and thieves faced the soldiers using fire guns, he could pursue and kill them without any scruples without worrying about his own safety.
In front of the gunmen of the Tiger Flag, any enemy who dares to rush forward regardless of casualties will be called a target.
After firing the gun in the Tiger Flag's hand, the gunman will only retreat and reload, giving up his position to the gunman in the second row.
The continuous gunfire continuously killed the bagaras in front of the formation, making it difficult for these bagaras to move forward.
