~~~~~~~~~~~~~Text dividing line~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The Qing army had advanced to a distance of 200 steps in front of the Xuan army's defense line. Under the shouts and curses of the strong and powerful troops, their formation became more strict again.
Those Qing soldiers who had been injured and killed by artillery rockets lay on the ground wailing. In front of and behind them were bloody roads that exuded a fishy smell.
At this moment, the shield vehicles of the Qing army surrounded from three sides stopped at a distance of 200 steps, no longer moving, but moving out of the way.
From the gaps in the shield cars, groups of sergeants wearing Ming army uniforms came out. They also launched many Folang machine artillery, including even Hongyi six-pounders and three-pounders slowly advancing. , pressing ruts in the hard wasteland.
Behind them, there were many Ming army-style soldiers, carrying densely packed large rockets, walking out of the Qing army's array.
The Qing army actually had deadly weapons such as artillery and rockets. This was beyond the expectations of the generals of the Xuan army, and many of them were at a loss.
Lu Xiangsheng, who was on the watchtower, also saw all this. He hurriedly ordered the flag bearer to play the flag, and ordered all troops to take cover and be careful of the Qing artillery and rockets.
As the flags were passed, the various Ming troops on the front line also became slightly commotion. They hid behind the earthen wall one after another. The gun soldiers also put down their fire guns and raised their shields to protect their body parts.
Some sentry officers who responded quickly also shouted loudly, asking the gunners to come forward. Regardless of whether it was a squatting tiger gun or a Franco machine gun, they all pushed forward as much as possible, trying to knock out the artillery and rockets in the Qing army in advance.
Zhang Cheng also saw the flags on the watchtower. He hurriedly ran up to the watchtower and gasped and said to Lu Xiangsheng: "Supervisor, please make a sudden wave of cavalry. Use the three-eyed blunderbuss to shoot down the Tatar artillery in the face." , we will withdraw and not fight Nu Lang."
Lu Xiangsheng had a solemn look on his face and couldn't make up his mind for the moment.
Zhang Cheng stood beside him, looking at the artillery in front of the Qing army's array, and said: "Supervisor, fire another wave of rockets to cover the cavalry, run around and we will be back.
Look at those in front of the Tatar formation. They are all officers and generals of our Ming Dynasty. However, they have forgotten their ancestors and are willing to be driven by slaves and thieves. Now they point their guns at me to announce that they are great generals. How can they be left as a big problem for me? "
Under Zhang Cheng's persuasion, Lu Xiangsheng ordered: "Send the order, the cavalry of all units will prepare in formation, and when the rockets are launched, use three-eyed muskets to attack the artillery team in front of the slave bandits' formation from a distance."
…………
In front of the Qing army's formation, deafening artillery sounds rang out one after another, and then the rockets in front of their formation also roared and began to fire. Iron ball shells roared towards the Xuan army's Jiazhuang defense line.
There were also bursts of arrows flying towards them, dragging their tail flames and roaring, and in the blink of an eye, they were in front of Xuan Dajun's defense line.
Many gunners who had no time to take cover were directly hit by iron balls. These iron balls roared towards the Xuan Army camp from three sides, either hitting the Xuan Army's outer defense line, or shooting directly into the inner defense line tents. , I was confused everywhere.
The power of the rockets was also far greater than the arrows shot by manpower. Although the soldiers of Xuan Army held up their shields, they were still in shock. From time to time, some people were shot and injured.
Cui Shijie, the sentry commander, saw with his own eyes that a gunner was hit by an iron bullet when he was unable to dodge. Half of his arm was smashed and his flesh was bloody. He fell to the ground, shaking constantly, and saw that he could not survive.
He couldn't bear it, so he glared at Mr. A and Mr. Zhou Ping and said, "Give him a good time."
Zhou Ping, who had a big beard on his face, didn't talk nonsense. He still held the shield in his left hand, grabbed a throwing spear with his right hand, took two steps, thrust forward with his right hand, and pierced the gunner's mandarin duck jacket with the throwing spear, straight into his heart. , the gunner held the throwing gun with one hand, kicked his legs hard, and stopped moving and struggling.
As if nothing was wrong, Zhou Zhouping sat down next to the gunner with a slim waist, and leaned tightly against the earth wall. The surrounding sergeants had a look of fear on their faces, and they all raised their shields to protect themselves carefully.
In addition to these solid iron bullets, the densely packed rockets also caused considerable casualties to Xuan Dajun.
The Qing army's rockets either fired directly or upward. From the direction of the Qing army, the Ming army was protected by an earthen wall, so the situation inside could not be seen clearly. However, the Ming army's gunners at the gap in the earthen wall were very good. target.
In addition to direct fire at these gunners, the remaining Qing soldiers who used rockets lit their rocket tubes one by one, raised their elevation angle, and fired at the entire Xuan Army's forward defense line.
A dense rain of arrows came. Although the defending sergeant Xuanda held his shield high and tried his best to protect himself, the arrows fell from the sky and many sergeants were still hit.
Many places were stained red with blood, and from time to time the wailing sounds of the wounded could be heard, especially those sergeants who were hit by iron bullets or wounded, and their condition was even more miserable.
When Captain Tian Ming saw his sergeants, they were wounded at the hands of the traitors of the Ming army before they could engage in close combat with the Tatars. He was so angry that he roared heartbreakingly at the gunner beside him: "Eat." Damn it, the cannon in your hand is dumb? Damn it, kill those bastards."
Seeing Tian Mingyu's stunned look, the gunners were all frightened. They hurriedly raised the Fo Lang machine gun and mounted it on the earth wall again, loaded the musket, quickly aimed, ignited and fired.
As the smoke rose and the fire flashed, an iron bullet flew away quickly. It missed the artillery in front of the Qing army's formation, but hit the left edge of a newly ignited rocket launcher. It immediately knocked the rocket out of the sky. Turn your head.
The surrounding Ming troops were so frightened that they jumped out of the way. The rocket had been ignited. Although it was deflected, it did not affect the launch.
Rockets flew out one after another and hit the Ming soldiers on the left who were manning artillery or preparing to launch rockets. They did not expect that their own rockets would be fired at them, and they ran away in panic for a while. , the scene was extremely chaotic.
Cui Shijie also received the flag order. He shouted loudly: "Rockets, quick, launch, push the Tatars down."
…………
After Zhang Cheng came back from looking upstairs, he ordered the sentry commanders to prepare for the attack. All the horses under his command were saddled and bridleed, and they were led by the knights and hid under wooden sheds.
Although there were occasional iron cannons falling around, they were sparse and did not pose any threat to them. At this moment, they all came out to line up. Zhang Cheng said loudly: "In front of the Tatar formation, there are all our soldiers surrendered by the Ming Dynasty. How can we keep these people who have forgotten their ancestors? How can we keep them?
Today, the left sentry, right sentry, and front sentry are following my general in battle. They are all using three-eyed musketry to attack the enemy within twenty steps. They must not engage in close combat with the enemy. All the officers and men are following closely. After firing a wave of muskets and artillery, we will return to camp. "
After the soldiers received the order, Zhang Cheng looked at Wu Zhizhong who looked expectant and said: "Old Wu, you take the rear sentry and join the veteran general's Chinese sentry Lin Zhiyi. If we are trapped by the enemy, you must help us return in time. camp."
